Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

Approximately, only half the strength that one has cultivated themselves.

Of course, this half is mainly reflected in combat power.

In terms of pure strength, there is no significant difference compared to a strong practitioner of the same realm.

But even so.

It still attracts countless people like moths to a flame.

And this thing has always been priceless.

"Shura Potion Number One, after consumption, has a ten percent mortality rate, and even if used successfully, it will reduce one's lifespan by ten years!" Just as Su Chen was extremely excited, Catherine revealed the side effects of the Shura Potion.

A ten percent mortality rate!

Successful use also shortens one's life by ten years!

This is most certainly a terrible price to pay.

How long is a person's lifespan?

At most, a hundred years, right? A reduction by ten years is equivalent to one-tenth of one's life.

Actually, this one-tenth reduction in lifespan is not the main concern.

Many are willing to make that trade for the sake of great power.

After all, a strong individual in the Mortal Realm can gain a great deal.

What is truly frightening is that ten percent chance of death.

If one is unlucky and it strikes, they die.

Su Chen's expression suddenly froze.

After all, the cost is too great.

Seeing Su Chen fall silent, Buddha smiled and said, "Little brother, what do you think? It's up to you whether you dare to choose or not. You just said, didn't you, that you are willing to risk your life for Catherine? Now it's just a ten percent risk of death and a reduction of ten years of life. Besides, this mortality rate and lifespan reduction are related to one's physical condition. Looking at you, little brother, your body is so robust. Maybe there won't be any side effects at all!"

What Buddha said was not a deception to Su Chen.

The side effects experienced by each person after using the Shura Potion are not absolute.

From a scientific perspective, the Shura Potion is about pushing a person's potential to the limit.

Those with greater potential will naturally experience fewer side effects.

Those with less potential will experience more severe side effects.

The stronger one's physical constitution, the lower the mortality rate.

The poorer the constitution, the higher the death rate.

This data comes from statistics collected from many individuals who have taken the Shura Potion.

But, the Shura Potion is incredibly precious.

Even if one has to use it, it is given to those who are already physically strong or those consumed by deep hatred but lack the power to seek revenge.

In other words.

Even if you have a strong constitution.

You still face a ten percent chance of death.

Not to mention those with a weaker constitution.

Those with poor constitutions might face a twenty percent, or even thirty percent chance of mortality!

A hint of fear appeared on Su Chen's face.

Su Chen showing fear is the normal reaction.

If Su Chen were not afraid, Buddha would find it strange.

Seeing Su Chen seemingly intimidated, Buddha chuckled and said, "Look, Catherine has also taken Shura Potion Number One, hasn't she? And she's perfectly fine now."

What!

Catherine has taken the Shura Potion too!

No wonder, Catherine has reached the Extraordinary Realm at such a young age!

It turns out she used the Shura Potion.

Indeed, Catherine had reached the Extraordinary Realm by taking the Shura Potion.

She tried to do it through her own efforts, but she failed.

In order to gain Buddha's approval, she secretly used the Shura Potion.

Catherine's face remained expressionless, but there was a hint of expectancy in her eyes.

Hoping that Su Chen would not use the Shura Potion.

However, after knowing the terrifying consequences, she believed Su Chen wouldn't be foolish enough to use it.

"Little brother, you see, Catherine is very strong, much stronger than you by many folds. As a man, shouldn't you protect your woman? You can't always expect Catherine to protect you in the face of danger, right?" Now that Buddha had brought out the Shura Potion.

Of course, he hoped that Su Chen would use it.

From his observation, Su Chen's physical quality was quite good.

There should be a high probability of success using Shura Potion Number One.

As for Shura Potion Number Two, he did not intend for Su Chen to use it.

The reason he mentioned it was only to let Su Chen know the extent of his capabilities.

"This... I need to think about it..." Su Chen said with a serious expression.

"Sure, little brother, take your time to think. However, if you don't have the courage, I may have to..." Buddha glanced at Catherine.

His intention was clear.

If Su Chen did not use the Shura Potion, he would lock Catherine in underground chamber number 18.

Su Chen's hesitation wasn't because of fear.

The Shura Potion is indeed terrifying.

It can cause severe harm even to martial artists.

But his strength has already reached the Saint Realm.

Utilizing the Shura Potion, there could only be a one in a thousand mortality rate, as for lifespan.

Having reached the Saint Realm, Su Chen could very well live past a hundred years.

A reduction of ten years in lifespan wasn't an issue.

Moreover, with a body conditioned by the Saint Realm, the lifespan might only be reduced by one year.

Besides, his cultivation is sure to continue improving.

As long as his cultivation becomes stronger, it's possible that this side effect of reducing one year of his life could be completely negated.

Which means, he could use the Shura Potion almost without any harm.

It just wouldn't enhance his cultivation.

However, Su Chen is not one who likes to take risks.

Even if there's a one in a thousand chance of dying, he wouldn't gamble with it.

But this doesn't mean he isn't brave enough to use the Shura Potion.

He still has Black Stone.

Although he cannot fully control the power of Black Stone yet.

One thing is for sure.

Black Stone could largely prevent his death.

So almost harmless becomes completely harmless.

The reason for his hesitation is just to give Buddha the illusion.

After all, it's natural for a person to hesitate when faced with a life or death decision.

If there's no hesitation at all.

That would be abnormal.

It might even make Buddha realize that he's not just an ordinary person.

After learning about the effects of the Shura Potion, the women began whispering among themselves.

They were all curious as to what decision Su Chen would make.

Only Chu Hongyun displayed a fiery gleam in her eyes.

If only she could become stronger...

But soon, her eyes dimmed again.

Since Buddha could produce such a potion.

Clearly, he was even more powerful.

Even if she used the Shura Potion, she would not be a match for Buddha.

Buddha stopped talking, waiting for Su Chen's decision.

After hesitating for about five minutes, Su Chen finally spoke.

"Buddha, I want to know the side effects of Shura Potion Number Two!"

Hearing Su Chen's question, a glint appeared in Buddha's eyes, and he took the initiative to say, "The side effects of Shura Potion Number Two are naturally doubled that of Shura Potion Number One, which is a twenty percent mortality rate and a reduction of twenty years of one's lifespan."
