Chapter 303: Exclusive Item: Killing Intent Imprint: Prohibition

Bai Cangshu walked among the clouds and mist, suddenly feeling a loss of gravity beneath his feet; the surrounding clouds and mist surged rapidly, and in a moment, they had dissipated completely.

When Bai Cangshu looked up, a massive face had already appeared before his eyes.

The Goddess's ruby-like eyes were currently examining Bai Cangshu with great interest; only then did Bai Cangshu notice that it wasn't the clouds and mist surging at all, but rather this Goddess who had directly lifted the hundreds-of-meters-tall Baiyu Jieti.

The area inside the Goddess Residence was surrounded by white mist, making it impossible to discern any changes in space, and this was also his first time seeing this Goddess reveal such power.

The other party was not merely drifting in the White Jade Plaza to sleep; at this size, she likely exceeded a thousand meters.

The scene before Bai Cangshu changed; he was certain he hadn't blinked, but in an instant, he was back in the White Jade Plaza, and both the Baiyu Jieti and the clouds in the sky had vanished.

This change was extremely abrupt, as if one were suddenly changing channels while watching television.

He had neither sensed a shift in space nor felt any movement of air; everything had been altered in an instant.

Illusion Technique?

Reality modification?

Or... time stop?!

The power displayed at this moment by this silver-haired, red-eyed Goddess completely exceeded Bai Cangshu's understanding.

The Goddess had no intention of explaining either; she simply drifted down from the air, her toes touching the ground, the ribbons on her body moving without wind.

"Do you know that storing so many Singularities without using them is a very dangerous behavior?"

Whether the Goddess's words were true or not was unknown, but after witnessing the innate ability of Heaven, Bai Cangshu was also inclined to rapidly improve his various abilities.

"Goddess, is there any way to resolve my 【Killing Intent Wave】?"

Hearing this question, the Goddess became languid, once again tilting over to lie in the air.

Information immediately appeared on the space panel.

【Do you wish to offer 1 B-rank Singularity to the Goddess to completely remove the special energy within your body: Killing Intent Wave?】

Bai Cangshu naturally shook his head; he did not want to waste time, so he said directly,

"What I want is to be able to avoid completely losing my sanity and also avoid the space's seal, while retaining 【Killing Intent Wave Lv4】."

Only then did the Goddess show some interest in speaking.

"This pursuit of extreme power is not something your current Spirit can control; rather, it is precisely because it is out of control that this power can be so incredibly strong."

"You are very greedy; you want both this power that transcends limits and to be free from its negative effects."

Bai Cangshu was also clear on this fact; the Killing Intent Wave he could currently control was roughly at the Lv3 level, which was likely linked to his Spirit attribute. To control the Lv4 level, his base Spirit attribute would likely need to reach around 40 points.

At Bai Cangshu's rate of improvement, after entering the 【Strong】 tier, if he pursued the Spirit attribute to the limit, he could reach it in about two mission worlds.

But this method was no different from drinking poison to quench thirst; with Bai Cangshu's speed of slaughter, the Killing Intent Wave would likely improve just as rapidly, and he could not remain restricted by this point forever.

"If it were you, there would surely be a way..."

Bai Cangshu said this with insincere flattery. Perhaps because of the many Singularities, the Goddess did not take offense; she merely raised her hand, and a black earring appeared in her palm, rotating continuously as it slowly descended.

Bai Cangshu had excellent dynamic vision and could see clearly: the object was about five centimeters long, composed of some kind of pitch-black metal or special stone, with a large number of fine patterns on the surface.

Most striking of all was what connected the earring: it was actually a series of small, black, living creatures resembling tiny people, as if they were humans shrunk a hundred times over. They had no faces, only mouthparts occupying the size of a face, each one using its bite to link the earring together.

As the object descended, he also saw its information through the space panel.

【Killing Intent Imprint: Prohibition】

【Quality: Rare and Peerless】

【Description: An imprint fabricated by a Great Existence by twisting the Killing Stone and Reishi Absorption Device from the Bleach derivative world; possesses powerful abilities.】

【Effect 1: After wearing, the Killing Intent Wave will be continuously devoured; Killing Intent Wave output level -1, negative effect level -2.】

【Effect 2: The devoured Killing Intent Wave will be stored within the imprint; when the imprint is unsealed, it will completely release the Killing Intent Wave and cause the Killing Intent Wave level to increase.】

【Effect 3: After the imprint is shattered, Killing Intent Wave output level +1, negative effect level +2.】

"How is it? This is equipment I tailored for you. Originally, this is a service only Title-level Reincarnators can enjoy..."

Bai Cangshu looked at the earring in his palm, which radiated a cold texture; this item could indeed be called exclusive equipment.

All entries were targeted at 【Killing Intent Wave】, and Bai Cangshu guessed that the "Great Existence" in the description likely referred to this Goddess.

As for the 【exclusive equipment】 the other party mentioned, Bai Cangshu had also heard about it from Heaven; this was a secret that only Title-level Reincarnators began to encounter. After a Title-level Reincarnator obtained an S-rank or higher evaluation, they could not only unlock hidden services from places like the 【Rank Management Office】.

They could also unlock hidden services at the 【Goddess Residence】.

Of course, she had heard from the former leader of 【9527】 that when a Reincarnator had enough Singularities and they were of high enough rank, the Goddess would unlock this service in advance.

But every Reincarnator could only obtain and wear one piece of exclusive equipment; once a new one was obtained, the Goddess would destroy the previous one.

Bai Cangshu guessed that the prototype of this earring likely came from the eyepatch of Zaraki Kenpachi in the 【Bleach derivative world】, which was also the type that could absorb Spiritual Pressure and suppress one's own Spiritual Pressure.

But Zaraki Kenpachi's eyepatch was merely "dead weight" he used to limit his own power so he could enjoy the slaughter; the earring provided by the Goddess, however, added some special attributes that were hard for a Reincarnator of Bai Cangshu's type to give up.

Bai Cangshu looked up and met the Goddess's gaze; those ruby-like eyes seemed to reflect every thought in Bai Cangshu's heart.

It was true that Bai Cangshu wanted to suppress the negative effects of the Killing Intent Wave, but deep down, he also had the crazy idea of pushing the Killing Intent Wave even higher.

This earring possessed the dangerous characteristic of erupting with killing intent and increasing it when removed. Bai Cangshu had detected the hidden effect within; he could use this point to rapidly climb the Killing Intent Wave level and grow quickly.

But at the same time, this behavior would also make Bai Cangshu increasingly prone to losing control.

Finally, even if this exclusive imprint were shattered, it could permanently and additionally strengthen the output capability of the Killing Intent Wave. Although the quality of this item was only 【Rare and Peerless】, on some level, because all its attributes were targeted at 【Killing Intent Wave】, its value to a Reincarnator who specialized in 【Killing Intent Wave】 was likely no less than a World's Rare Treasure-level item.

【Do you wish to offer 3 B-rank Singularities to the Goddess in exchange for the exclusive item: Killing Intent Imprint: Prohibition?】

【You have lost 3 B-rank Singularities.】

【You have obtained the item: Killing Intent Imprint: Prohibition.】

The black earring finally fell into Bai Cangshu's hand. After Bai Cangshu picked it up, those little black figures seemed to smell the scent of the Killing Intent Wave and began to grow restless.

Bai Cangshu placed the earring under his left earlobe, and the little black figures immediately leaped up, biting onto Bai Cangshu's earlobe.

Brilliant flames ignited instantly, but accompanied by a flash of black light from the earring, the flames extinguished. Bai Cangshu felt a slight pain, followed by a sensation of coldness spreading from the earring.

The restless killing intent immediately slowed down.

【Detected that Reincarnator ex051 is no longer suffering from Killing Intent Wave sanity erosion; Killing Intent Wave seal lifted.】

The Goddess sucked three B-rank Singularities into her mouth and narrowed her eyes, but she was still not satisfied.

Bai Cangshu also catered to her preferences and continued to "spend."

"I want to initiate Bloodline Refining."

【Do you wish to spend 1 B-rank Singularity to perform Bloodline Refining?】

"Yes."

The Goddess opened her mouth and inhaled again; the Singularity entered her throat, her eyes shifted, and a terrifying high temperature appeared once more within Bai Cangshu's body.

His entire body's blood was instantly evaporated, and he could even feel the Yellow Springs in his consciousness world begin to surge at this moment, wanting to take the place of the blood in his body to flow.

Impurities were expelled bit by bit, and his bloodline was drawing closer to its state in ancient mythology.

This time, Bai Cangshu did not lose consciousness; he felt that state of decay and death, and the Senluo Death Intent within his body circulated throughout his entire being.

The next moment, a massive amount of Life Essence appeared, repairing Bai Cangshu's withered and ruptured cells one by one, and even the damage caused by the erosion of the Killing Intent Wave within his body was restored.

【You have completed one refining, the effect is excellent.】

【Killing Intent Entry damage repaired, current Constitution: 31.】

【You have gained Low-level Instant Death Resistance; when facing an instant death judgment, you will possess a certain ability to resist (Priority: Low).】
