Reborn As a Snake, I Can Absorb Fear

Chapter 140 Water Spirit BodyJiang Feng checked his total harvest this time: 280 million fear points.

He had broken his historical record once again. Today, his fear points had repeatedly reached new historical highs.

To the current Jiang Feng, fear points had become just a number; he had already achieved fear point freedom.

fear points were like wealth to Jiang Feng.

He never expected that the financial freedom he had dreamed of in his previous life would be so easily achieved after becoming a snake in this life.

Everything felt like a dream.

Was his previous life a dream, or was this life the dream?

”Comparatively, I still prefer my current state as a snake.”

Jiang Feng murmured to himself.

Vividly a snake, no longer knowing he was Jiang Feng.

The increase in Physique didn’t feel like much to Jiang Feng anymore. He didn’t even know how many times his Physique had multiplied today.

Jiang Feng was about to convert all his fear points into Physique when he suddenly realized he hadn’t exchanged for skills in a long time.

”System, can ten million fear points get me any awesome skills?”

[Ding! The host can exchange for an Elementary Five Elements Spirit Body.]

”What on earth is an Elementary Five Elements Spirit Body? What does it do?”

[Ding! Primary Water Spiritual Body: The host can transform into a water snake and control water. Costs ten million fear points.]

[Ding! Elementary Fire Spirit Body: The host can transform into a fire snake and control fire. Costs ten million fear points.]

[Ding! Elementary Wood Spirit Body: The host can transform into a wood snake and control wood. Costs ten million fear points.]

[Ding! Elementary Metal Spirit Body: The host can transform into a metal snake and control metal. Costs ten million fear points.]

[Ding! Elementary Earth Spirit Body: The host can transform into an earth snake and control earth. Costs ten million fear points.]

”That’s it?”

Jiang Feng felt this was absolutely ridiculous. These kinds of skills actually cost ten million fear points.

What use was turning into a water snake? Could it increase his strength?

His defense could already withstand nuclear bombs. If he turned into a water snake, wouldn’t he be vaporized by a single nuke?

”System, this skill is a total scam. Not only does it not increase my strength, it actually makes me weaker.”

[Ding! After the host transforms into a Five Elements Snake, defense remains unaffected.]

”Is that so?”

Only then did Jiang Feng feel it was somewhat reasonable, but it still wasn’t very appealing. What could he do by controlling water?

Drown people? Was killing someone really that much of a hassle?

Unless he could control the ocean.

Wait, the ocean.

Jiang Feng’s heart suddenly jolted. Could it be...

”System, after I turn into a water snake, can I control the entire ocean?”

[Ding! An Primary Water Spiritual Body can only control water equal to one hundred times the host’s body volume. To control more water, the Spirit Body level must be upgraded.]

”Only a hundred times?” Jiang Feng was a bit disappointed. Water equal to a hundred times his body volume didn’t seem like much.

However, if his size increased, the amount of water he could control would also increase.

In the future, it wouldn’t be impossible to bring the entire ocean under his control. Jiang Feng was suddenly a bit tempted.

But he still needed to confirm the effects of higher-level Spirit Bodies.

”Then how many times my body volume can the next Spirit Body level control?”

[Ding! An Intermediate Water Spirit Body can control water equal to ten thousand times the host’s body volume.]

”Ten thousand times?”

This was already very exaggerated. For example, with his current million-ton body, ten thousand times that would be ten billion tons of water.

Ten billion tons of water could completely submerge a city.

Not bad. It seemed this skill was actually somewhat useful.

”Then System, how many fear points does an Intermediate Water Spirit Body cost?”

[Ding! Host, an Intermediate Water Spirit Body costs 1 billion fear points, and you must possess the Primary Water Spiritual Body to exchange for it.]

Damn, that’s way too much!

Jiang Feng, who had just achieved fear point freedom, almost coughed up a mouthful of blood.

He originally thought a few hundred million would be enough to exchange for dozens of awesome skills, but it turned out it could only buy one elementary one.

As for those under ten million, like the Ride the Clouds and Mist or Call the Wind and Summon the Rain he had seen before...

They were essentially useless to him now.

With his current size, he couldn’t even achieve Ride the Clouds and Mist. There had to be clouds and mist; what kind of cloud or mist could support his weight?

Call the Wind and Summon the Rain was even more useless. What could a breeze and a drizzle do?

Even the heaviest rain—could it submerge a city?

Compared to the ten-million-point Water Spirit Body, they were simply pathetic.

But thinking of wind, Jiang Feng asked again:

”System, are there other Spirit Bodies besides the Five Elements?”

[Ding! Besides the Five Elements Spirit Bodies, there are Phenomenon Spirit Bodies, also known as Derivative Five Elements Spirit Bodies, such as Wind Spirit Body, Lightning Spirit Body, and Ice Spirit Body. Additionally, there are Special Spirit Bodies, such as Light Spirit Body, Darkness Spirit Body, Life Spirit Body, Death Spirit Body, Space Spirit Body, Time Spiritual Body, etc.]

Holy crap!

So many Spirit Bodies stunned Jiang Feng instantly, and he couldn’t help but swear.

”System, then what use is a Time Spiritual Body?”

[Ding! A Time Spiritual Body allows control over the Laws of Time and comprehension of the essence of speed. Under the Laws of Time, speed and change lose their meaning.]

”How many fear points does it cost?” Jiang Feng asked fervently.

[Ding! An Elementary Time Spirit Body costs 10 billion fear points.]

Damn, an elementary one costs ten billion.

Jiang Feng was shocked. Although he knew Special Spirit Bodies would definitely be expensive, he didn’t expect them to be this expensive.

Forget it, let’s stick to the Five Elements Spirit Bodies for now!

Jiang Feng temporarily abandoned the idea of getting a Special Spirit Body.

To Jiang Feng, he didn’t need every one of the Five Elements Spirit Bodies. For instance, he felt the Wood and Metal Spirit Bodies weren’t very useful.

The most useful were the Water and Earth Spirit Bodies because these two substances were the most abundant on Blue Star.

Although usable fire was scarce, fire could spread, making the Fire Spirit Body a decent choice as well.

Besides these three, Jiang Feng was also somewhat interested in the Wind Spirit Body.

After all, his name in his previous life was Jiang Feng; wouldn’t it be a disservice to the name if he didn’t get a Wind Spirit Body?

”System, how many fear points for the Wind Spirit Body?”

Jiang Feng decided to ask first. If the Wind Spirit Body was ridiculously expensive, he would have to painfully give it up.

[Ding! Exchanging for an Elementary Wind Spirit Body costs 20 million fear points.]

”Only twenty million? That’s fine.”

Thus, Jiang Feng began exchanging for these four Spirit Bodies.

[Ding! Consumed 10 million fear points. Exchanged for Primary Water Spiritual Body.]

With the exchange of the Water Spirit Body, Jiang Feng suddenly felt as if his body were a puddle of water.

His entire snake form became transparent; at this moment, he had truly become a water snake.

But miraculously, the water didn’t flow everywhere; it was contained within the snake’s form.

Curious, Jiang Feng poked his water-snake head into his own body.

As a result, his snake head and torso merged into one, and his entire body took on a shape similar to the number 9.

”Crap, where’s my head?”

Jiang Feng was almost scared to death. This damn thing really turned him into water.

But soon, Jiang Feng’s head emerged from the other side of his torso.

It was as if his head had passed directly through his body.

Even this works?

Jiang Feng looked at his strange and bizarre body in dumbfounded amazement.

He quickly realized the wonder of this Water Spirit Body.

This simply subverted his worldview. Water is formless, meaning he could now transform into any shape.

Even kneading his body into a ball would work.

Thinking of this, Jiang Feng quickly coiled his entire body into a bunch.

And thus, a water tower was formed...
