Chapter 280

【Magic Rock】

Quality: A-Class

Type: Construction Material

Effect: An extremely hard stone with the "Durability" trait, nearly impossible to destroy.

Hidden Info: 1000 tons can be smelted into one jin of S-Class 【Magic Rock Jin Gang Stone】.

Luo Chenyu: "…"

Holy shit!

You don't know until you look—then you're shocked.

This unremarkable stone is actually a high-tier construction material, and can even be smelted into S-Class 【Magic Rock Jin Gang Stone】.

It's said the high walls of Donghai City are made of nothing but A-Class construction material.

If I moved all of it out, wouldn't I get rich?

Too bad my space backpack can't carry it…

"The effect is still pretty good!"

Luo Chenyu now roughly understood the purpose of the hidden info: it revealed hidden effects invisible to the naked eye.

These things often carried unexpected surprises.

After finishing 【Eyes of Insight】.

Luo Chenyu turned his gaze to the transformed 【Protection of the Life Goddess】 and was utterly stunned.

【Protection of the Life Goddess】 (Unique)

Unique Skill Mutation

Active Mutation Effect: Status skill, consumes 20% mana, increases own damage reduction by 99% and damage increase by 99%, restores 10% HP per second during duration, raises maximum HP by 500% during duration, and grants immunity to any negative status that reduces maximum HP, lasts 60 seconds, cooldown 30 minutes.

Passive Effect: Restores 1% HP per second; if under a shield effect, increases shield maximum by 50%, shield damage reduction by 20%, and shield true damage reduction by 20%.

Extra Effect (Eternal): Eternal, all passive high-tier attributes can exceed 100%, and final effects are enhanced.

Extra Effect (Holy Light): Holy Light, permanently increases damage against dark-aligned monsters by 100%; upon activating the skill, every 10 seconds purges all negative statuses on self and has a chance to reverse them (Divine Rank)!

Holy shit!!

Each transformation of 【Protection of the Life Goddess】 always left Luo Chenyu stunned.

This effect is absolutely incredible!

Purifies negative statuses, and has a chance to reverse them.

True turn-the-tables justice!

………………

After closing the skill panel.

Luo Chenyu turned his gaze to the Dropped Items in his space backpack.

【Dragon Demon Battle Art】

Quality: SSS-Class

Type: Special Items

Restriction: Physical-Type Class

Effect: Records the battle techniques of the Dragon Demon race; through study, one may awaken the Tier 9 Battle Skill — Dragon Demon Devouring Heaven Slash!

……

【Thousand-Foot Ghost Domain Secret Realm Teleport Token】

Quality: Forbidden

Type: Special Items

Restriction: Level 100 (Fourth Transformation)

Effect: After use, enters 【Thousand-Foot Ghost Domain Secret Realm】!

Warning: This Secret Realm is not of this world; unauthorized teleportation may cause incalculable consequences!

……

Both items are of very high quality.

One SSS, one Forbidden!

The former is the Battle Art mentioned by the Dwarf King—wonder how it differs from the one taught by the Renzhiwang Sect?

But…

Since it's the Dragon Demon race's Battle Art, its effect won't be weak.

Still, Luo Chenyu wasn't in a hurry—he'd first learn the Dwarf King's Battle Art, then study 【Dragon Demon Battle Art】; perhaps unexpected effects would emerge.

As for 【Thousand-Foot Ghost Domain Secret Realm Teleport Token】, it was a last-resort item, useless for the foreseeable future.

Even if he reached the level, he wouldn't dare teleport there—after all, that Secret Realm isn't of this world.

What if he couldn't come back? That'd be tragic.

Suddenly.

Luo Chenyu froze slightly—had the skill book from the sixth trial reward… vanished again?

Which sneaky bastard?

He immediately reopened the skill panel to check his skills.

Only then did he realize… 【Battle Stance】 was in mutation state.

That meant 【Battle Stance】 had also become a sneaky bastard!!

So what would it turn into after "stealing" 【Rage Mode】?

Just as Luo Chenyu was pondering, the Dwarf King sauntered over to his side.

"All taken care of?"

Seeing Luo Chenyu nod, a hearty grin spread across the Dwarf King's face. "Nicely done. Those centipedes were disgusting!"

Luo Chenyu asked, puzzled: "Senior, you know these big bugs?"

"Know them? More than that." The Dwarf King's face was full of rueful emotion as he said, "A few hundred years ago, I ran into a few of those big bugs too. I took one down, and after that they kept targeting me. If those two bastards hadn't sealed me in the Demon Dragon Abyss, I probably would have been pestered to death by them long ago."

Back in the day, he had been a big shot who shook a whole region.

But unfortunately… he got schemed.

Now…

If he wanted to return to the 【Eternal Arena】, he would face endless deathmatches.

Even at his peak, he couldn't have safely made it through, let alone now — gravely wounded, his soul origin not even recovered yet.

Going back to the Eternal Arena would absolutely be a dead end.

But seeing the giant centipede die right before his eyes — that was a deeply satisfying thing.

Luo Chenyu's eyes shifted, and he suddenly asked, "Senior, do you think there's any treasure in the Demon Dragon King's lair?"

There were still two matters that hadn't been settled.

One was the Demon Dragon King's treasure, and the other was the Demon Dragon Abyss's final trial.

Both questions could be put to the Dwarf King — hear what he had to say.

The Dwarf King looked at Luo Chenyu with a hint of meaning in his eyes and laughed, "You little punk look like a tough, decisive type, but you've got quite a few little schemes running."

"Not at all, Senior, you flatter me."

Seeing Luo Chenyu's "shy" look, the Dwarf King was instantly speechless and couldn't help but complain.

His gaze turned toward the towering peak before them.

A moment later.

The Dwarf King finally spoke slowly.

"Worth a try. There happen to be a few decent forging materials inside."

Luo Chenyu: "…"

Good lord, so in your eyes forging materials are the only thing that matters.

But since that was the case, he had nothing to hesitate about.

He directly fused the three 【Demon Dragon Treasure Barrier Tokens】 and opened the Demon Dragon King's treasure.

In an instant.

A dim Chuansong Sect appeared before his eyes.

Luo Chenyu raised his hand in a "after you" gesture and said, "Senior, you first!"
