Desolate World: Starting With [Selection Option] Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Advanced Auditory Position Tracking
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Under normal circumstances, Wang Shuo could only obtain six Five Grain Pills an hour. But this was the limit if he killed one monster at each spawn timer and selected the best options.
The reality was even more dismal for ordinary players.
In a regular game, his current situation could basically be considered a bug.
But since it was unfair to other players, the game made some changes.
Judging from the number of monsters spawned, it was obvious that the game realized how massive Wang Shuo’s advantage was.
But the response mechanism was a little stiff, and the increase in difficulty was negligible.
But Wang Shuo knew that this situation wouldn’t last long with the Desolate Game’s abilities.
His current most pressing priority was to exploit this period and try to end each battle in the shortest time possible to maximize the number of monster respawns and farm a good amount of resources.
An hour later, after he absorbed another ten light spots, four slappy ducks appeared around him without any warning.
“Nice!”
Wang Shuo was extremely excited. Without breaking a sweat, he dodged the slappy ducks’ attacks, pulled open his distance from the formation, and defeated them one by one.
Now that he had a clear understanding of the abilities of slappy ducks, coupled with his overwhelming strength, the entire battle was a breeze. It was just that he took an extra minute.
After obtaining four more White Treasure Chests, Wang Shuo started cultivating again.
…
Due to the power gap between slappy ducks and Wang Shuo, they wouldn’t pose a threat to him before the quantity reached a qualitative change.
The fifth round, sixth round, seventh round…
The numbers of slappy ducks increased with each round.
By nightfall, Wang Shuo completed another six rounds.
Including the first three, he had harvested a total of 45 White Treasure Chests.

For six of the treasure chests he opened, he chose half Water Droplets and half Five Grains Pill. As for the remaining ones, he chose only Five Grains Pill.
Currently, he had 23 droplets and 237 pills, of which he had eaten 20.
At the same time, with the consumption of two Five Grain Pills per hour during cultivation, Wang Shuo had absorbed 91 light spots.
As he absorbed more and more light spots, he gradually felt a warmth amplifying in his chest.
In particular, after the number of light spots reached 80, this warmth was much more potent. And he even began to feel a swelling.
But it was not uncomfortable. Instead, he felt more and more energetic and revitalized.
After swallowing another pill, Wang Shuo entered a meditative state again.
98, 99…
As the feeling of fullness gradually turned to hunger, Wang Shuo successfully absorbed the 100th light spot.
He skillfully circulated his cultivation technique, and the light spot moved to his chest.
Kacha!
His chest exploded like a hot water bottle.
Countless streams of scorching hot air rushed to his limbs and bones. At the same time, a feeling similar to when he received the Primordial Chaos Skill and his Physique strengthened swept through his entire body.
About five minutes later, Wang Shuo opened his eyes in high spirits. He could feel the increased strength throughout his body. A wide smile hooked across his face.
With a thought, he opened the Attributes Window. As expected, the state of the Primordial Chaos Skill had changed.
[Primordial Chaos Skill]
Stage 1: Foundation Establishment (Elementary Mastery)
Description: Nourish the five viscera to establish a firm foundation and cultivate the soul.
Breakthrough Requirements: 1. Physique 3-4, Breakthrough Pill (Yellow Tier) x1; 2. Physique 5-6
With the breakthrough of the Primordial Chaos Skill, Wang Shuo’s Physique increased from 2 to 3.
“Take off!” Wang Shuo grinned.

When he had just 2 points of Physique, the slappy ducks were already at his mercy. Now that his Physique improved once again, the results were crystal clear.
With his current strength, if he fought his previous self, his previous self probably wouldn’t even have the power to fight back.
This gap was even more significant than the gap between him and ordinary people before he broke through.
“It’s time to test my strength.”
Excitement pumped through Wang Shuo’s veins.
Seeing that it was about time, he stood up and started warming up.
About five minutes later, ten consecutive soft rustles echoed.
The cold crescent moon shining in the sky illuminated ten white figures.
As his Physique improved, Wang Shuo’s night vision also improved tremendously.
Even the dark night wasn’t much different from a bright day in his eyes.
This was also the reason why he dared to come out at night to kill monsters.
Looking at the slappy ducks swarming all around him, Wang Shuo remained unfazed. If it was before, he would have had to escape the encirclement at breakneck speed and then kill each one individually.
But this time, he didn’t do so. He just stood there quietly.
He seemed to be motionless. But in fact, every cell in his body was active.
At this moment, Wang Shuo felt peculiar.
Even though his eyes could only see the front, his powerful five senses formed an image of his surroundings in his mind through smell, hearing, and touch (airflow).
Suddenly, he tilted his body slightly, and his hands patted the heads of two ducks.
Kacha!
Accompanied by the crisp sound of bones breaking, the two slappy ducks turned into particles of light and disappeared without a sound.
Wang Shuo didn’t stop.
With light steps, he dodged three successive attacks. Then with a light hook from his toes, another monster exploded into particles of light and dissipated.
He sidestepped to meet another slappy duck lunging from the right.
Like a spinning top, he swiveled to the back of it.
The next second, his black shadow slammed into the duck.
Before it could come to its senses, two palms landed one after another.
From the start of the battle until now, only a few seconds had passed before he killed half of the ten slappy ducks.
During the process, Wang Shuo was immersed in the wonderful feeling of having everything under control.
Although he was much stronger than the slappy ducks before, he lacked combat experience and couldn’t fully display his strength.
For example, when facing the encirclement, he didn’t know how to deal with attacks from blind spots, causing him to be fearful in battle.
He could only rely on running out of the formation and then attacking them one by one.
But as his Physique reached 3 points, his five senses underwent an immense change.
If you were to use an example to illustrate, Wang Shuo gained an advanced version of the auditory position tracking that main characters in martial arts stories had.
This powerful ability was akin to granting Wang Shuo a heavenly eye, offering him a bird’s eye view of things within a three-meter radius around him. With this, he eliminated all worries in his heart.

Instantly, his combat ability sublimated.
Like an elegant and swift breeze, Wang Shuo weaved through the five black shadows like a ghost.
A few seconds later, he turned around.
At this moment, five streaks of white light burst like fireworks.
As the continuous kill notifications and reward notifications came to an end, and Wang Shuo prepared to leave, a notification suddenly popped up.
