Chapter 192: Second Refinement of the Life Soul Artifact
To think that the power of elements could be used in such a way.
Zhou Chu was shocked time and again by the images in his mind, while his eyes continuously glowed with a strange brilliance.
If the God of Nature were to transform into the Guardian Spirit Form, wouldn't he be able to use spells of various elements as he pleased in the future?
Originally just a summoning-type Necromancer, with the blessing of the God of Nature's elemental power, he was transformed into a Mage in one fell swoop.
And a full-elemental Mage at that; who would dare believe it?
Even more terrifying is that his contract servants can also gain attribute enhancements and ability expansions through the influence of elemental power.
Imagine it: undead creatures that were already formidable, wrapped in fire elements, possessing powerful burning abilities like envoys from purgatory.
Or, with the assistance of wind elements, moving with extreme speed, making them difficult to track.
Or, strengthened by earth elements, becoming as solid as rock, forming an Indestructible defensive line on the battlefield.
The more Zhou Chu thought about it, the more excited he became, feeling that his future was full of infinite possibilities.
Next, as long as he condenses the divine consciousness of the God of Nature into the so-called Guardian Spirit Form, Zhou Chu's strength will once again receive a huge boost.
A Necromancer playing with magic—that sounds quite explosive.
Zhou Chu was already impatient to use his full-spectrum spells to slaughter his way through the Calamity Front.
However, to make the God of Nature undergo a rapid transformation, it must be nourished by more Soul Power.
There are only two ways to increase Soul Power: raising one's own level and increasing the grade of the Life Soul Artifact or increasing the number of times it is refined.
Zhou Chu could intuitively feel that the refined Life Soul Artifact could provide him with more Soul Power support than before it was refined.
Although there was no highlight in the data, the feeling and effect were quite obvious.
Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Zhou Chu felt that the best method currently was to put effort into the number of refinements of the Life Soul Artifact.
After all, compared to a large amount of experience and 1 million Soul Fragments, obtaining 10,000 Soul Points is relatively easier to achieve.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were not many classes at the end of this semester, Zhou Chu would go to the monster Copy in the school's Dungeon Area to grind Soul Points every day after finishing his morning combat skills class.
Fortunately, there are quite a lot of types of Copies in Shenxia University. Zhou Chu specifically chose a Copy with many monsters, and relying on his army of thousands of contract servants, he slaughtered his way through the Copy, grinding for three days until he finally accumulated 10,000 Soul Points.
【Your "Life Soul Artifact—Dead Man's Coffin (S-Grade)" has successfully completed its second refinement.】
【Dead Man's Coffin (S-Grade): Can automatically collect Contract Materials of S-Grade quality and below. By manifesting the Soul Artifact, one can forcibly contract targets that are not yet dead and are not higher than one's own Soul Profession grade; the forced contract success rate is 60% (the success rate is determined by the target's grade, and it can only be used three times a day). It also carries the "Soul Cage Release" effect, which can release a certain number of contract servants from the Contract Pool into battle every second (the current number that can be released per second is 1,000). (Evolving to the next grade requires consuming 1 million Soul Fragments or 1,000 Soul Crystals)】
【Soul Power +, automatically recovers 1,000 points of Soul Power per second, non-contract or summoning-type spell effects increased by 200%】
【Soul Points: 0/(After filling up, a third refinement can be performed) 2 Soul Points can be obtained for every monster killed】
【Effect 1:...】
【...】
【Effect 6:...】
It can be clearly seen that after the Life Soul Artifact completed its second refinement, the effects on the main entry also changed slightly.
The forced contract success rate increased by 10%, which can be ignored.
The key is the Soul Cage Release effect, which has increased tenfold from the previous number of contract servants that could be released per second.
Coupled with the new entry, Zhou Chu's current Soul Power attribute has reached over 10,000. With the attribute growth of 25 after the Second Transfer, his Soul Power Value has exceeded 300,000.
This also allows the number of contract servants in Zhou Chu's army to reach over 300,000.
However, with the entry that automatically recovers 1,000 points of Soul Power per second, to be precise, the number of contract servant legions Zhou Chu can summon is more than 300,000.
As long as this entry takes effect, Zhou Chu can continuously summon contract servants, allowing the battlefield to always maintain a considerable fighting force.
For Zhou Chu, this is undoubtedly like adding wings to a tiger.
The only thing that surprised him was that the Life Soul Artifact also increased the effects of non-contract or summoning-type spells.
As a Soul Profession that focuses on contract and summoning-type spells, the Life Soul Artifact should actually enhance these two types of spell effects.
This is also where Zhou Chu felt surprised.
Could it be because the God of Nature exists within his body?
After thinking for a while, Zhou Chu also felt that this was the only most likely possibility.
But thinking about it now, once he possesses the ability to control elemental power in the future, it will undoubtedly be another huge improvement.
Seeing this, Zhou Chu wanted to continue grinding in the Copy to let the Life Soul Artifact complete its third refinement.
But after seeing that the Soul Points required for the third refinement had increased by 10 times based on the original foundation, he finally gave up.
Although he didn't know how many times the Life Soul Artifact could be refined, judging from the current situation, there should still be a long way to go.
There will be many times when he needs to grind monsters in the future; it doesn't have to be right this moment.
Zhou Chu saw that the Life Soul Artifact after the second refinement was actually two sizes larger than before, and it had now become a rectangular box about a meter long.
But the shape was still that of a coffin.
As the number of refinements increases, the volume of this Life Soul Artifact is actually getting bigger and bigger, not smaller.
Zhou Chu could hardly imagine that when the Life Soul Artifact becomes the size of a real coffin, would he have to carry a coffin around every day?
Just thinking about that scene, Zhou Chu couldn't help but shiver.
Even just taking its current size, Zhou Chu carrying it in his hand is enough to attract everyone's attention.
Its appearance cannot be compared to Lei Jianting's Mountain Splitting Axe, or even Jiang Chen's Star Sword.
Thus, Zhou Chu subsequently went to the school's commercial street and specially customized a dedicated cloth bag for the Life Soul Artifact.
This cloth bag is made of special materials; not only is the material tough and difficult to damage, but it even has an automatic shrinking function.
When Zhou Chu put the Dead Man's Coffin into the cloth bag, the bag automatically shrank, fitting it perfectly, and then he slung it across his back.
At this moment, under the decoration of the Life Soul Artifact's cloth bag, Zhou Chu looked as if he were carrying a sword case containing a precious sword, appearing unexpectedly more dashing and mysterious.
