Chapter 1590: Absolute Crushing of Intelligence

After checking the abilities of the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan, Su Xiao's heart couldn't be calm for a long time. Do not think that the comprehensive attribute improvement of the Epic-grade promotion was low. You must know that the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan was previously a Legendary-grade +13 weapon. After the reinforcement level dropped, the various attributes of the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan had all decreased.

The current improvement of the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan was an overflow improvement effect after compensating for the +13 reinforcement gain. If the Epic-grade Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan could be upgraded to +13, that would be another scene. If he really held an Epic-grade +13 Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan, let alone Fifth-Stage contractors, even Sixth-Stage contractors would die if they were slashed in a few vital points by him. Of course, that was under the condition that the Sixth-Stage contractor was completely unprepared. The gap between the two stages was simply too large.

In the Reincarnation Paradise, challenging across stages was very, very difficult. Unless Su Xiao was the strongest in the Fourth Stage, he might have a chance to challenge a Fifth-Stage early-stage contractor, and who would win or lose wasn't certain. After all, the Fourth Stage and Fifth Stage weren't on the same level.

Both God Emperor and Stan were very strong, but they were both stuck in the Fourth Stage. It wasn't that they didn't want to promote to the Fifth Stage, but they were preparing. To promote to the Fifth Stage, they needed to complete some kind of trial in the Void.

Su Xiao wasn't in a hurry to promote to the Fifth Stage for the time being. After completing the Awakening of the Blade, he felt relaxed all over, and the heavy burden on his shoulders was swept away.

The improvement of comprehensive performance was just the most basic improvement of the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan. Currently, the sharpness of the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan had broken through 100 points for the first time, reaching a staggering 104 points. If this blade slashed down and hit the shield of a Fourth-Stage main tank, that main tank would likely cry in the toilet eight or nine times out of ten. The repair cost of the shield would be so high that he would doubt his life.

The Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan wasn't just sharp. The two Legendary gems, Spirit Cat and Mad Knight, also carried the effect of reducing the enemy's physical defense. Combined with the 104 sharpness, when slashing enemies of the same stage, once it slashed directly into the body, it was like cutting melons and vegetables.

More importantly, the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan possessed a very terrifying ability—slashing, or rather, an instant-kill effect. When the enemy's HP dropped below 25%, they were directly slashed to death.

This ability was very useless for dealing with small fry, but if it were used to deal with powerful enemies like the Lord Without a Crown or Moi Nora, it could play a role in turning the tide of the battle. It was very likely that the enemy was severely injured and just about to fight Su Xiao for his life, only to be slashed to death by him.

No matter how small the wound was slashed by the last blade, as long as the Blade of the Dark Moon energy invaded the enemy's body, the Blade Spirit of the Blade would invade the enemy's body together with the Blade of the Dark Moon energy, thereby causing a slashing effect on consciousness, or even the soul.

Regarding the Blade Demon energy, Su Xiao had never thought of eliminating this thing, because it couldn't be eliminated at all. At most, it was sealed and used for his own purposes. If his own soul strength was 100, then the strength of the Blade Demon energy was at least 2,000 or more. If this thing had its own consciousness, it would have long ago occupied the magpie's nest. Precisely because of this, Su Xiao was so urgent to strip the Blade Demon energy.

As for the Blade Spirit of the Blade transformed from the Blade Demon energy, Su Xiao felt that this thing didn't have its own consciousness either. It was just a mass of hazy black-blue mist that would obey his command.

Currently, Su Xiao could recall the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan from dozens of meters away, so he didn't worry about the fatal problem of the weapon leaving his hand. Another point was that, except for Su Xiao, others simply couldn't use the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan. No, describing it this way was a bit wrong. The correct way to say it was that the enemy couldn't grip the hilt of the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan. If an enemy gripped it, that would be a huge 'surprise', and they would lose a layer of skin even if they didn't die. The name 'Magic Blade' wasn't just a title.

Of course, the ability of the Blade Spirit of the Blade was currently only in the initial stage. What follow-up abilities it had, Su Xiao still needed to explore and develop on his own. After all, the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan had just completed the Awakening of the Blade.

【Prompt: The Hunter has completed the main mission 'Awakening of the Blade'.】

【You have obtained Broken Soul Shadow Stone · Incomplete x1 (Legendary).】

【Because the main mission is completed, the Hunter's stay time in this world is cleared. You can choose to return to the Reincarnation Paradise immediately, or continue to stay for two hours before being forced to return.】

Su Xiao closed the prompt. He wasn't prepared to return to the Reincarnation Paradise for the time being. The reason was very simple: Amu was still holding that piece of purple crystal and licking it, licking it so sweetly.

Originally a large piece of purple crystal, it was now licked by Amu until only the size of a fist remained. It opened its mouth wide and compared that crystal in front of its mouth. It wasn't effortless, but it wasn't too difficult either, and it stuffed it into its mouth.

Just seeing Amu clench its fist, roll its eyes, and kick its legs, it swallowed the fist-sized crystal.

"*Gulp~*"

Su Xiao saw Amu's neck clearly thicken by a circle. That crystal slowly traveled downward, finally entering its chest and falling into Amu's stomach, which could be called a universal decomposer.

Clearly, Amu had a very good sense of proportion. It knew that this crystal would explode if it encountered external pressure, so it licked it first and then swallowed it.

Amu patted its stomach. Looking at its appearance, it seemed there was no change, no side effects, and no trend of becoming stronger.

"Amu, full."

Amu spoke in a muffled voice and patted its stomach.

"..."

Su Xiao's footsteps paused. He looked at Amu with full surprise. He had manufactured Amu for so long, and this was the first time he had heard Amu say it was full. This was as incredible as Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang not tearing down the house or Benny not being greedy for money.

After carefully observing Amu and finding no abnormalities, Su Xiao felt relieved. He began to contact Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, asking about the situation at the foot of the mountain. If there were no accidents, he was prepared to return to the Reincarnation Paradise.

At the foot of the iceberg.

*Tut-tut-tut... *

*Tut-tut-tut... *

It was still that 'eerie' and rhythmic *tut-tut* sound. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Zango squatted at the foot of the iceberg. In front of them was a fire pit. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang often took out a compressed air canister and sprayed it into the fire pit to ensure the flames continued to burn.

"*Phew~*"

Zango sniffed his snot. Standing tall, he squatted in front of the fire pit. Looking at that posture, he was clearly stretching his palms to warm them by the fire.

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang barked and threw a piece of frozen crispy beef jerky to Zango. Zango took it and bit it after hesitating for a moment.

"You are still... not bad."

Zango ate the crispy grilled meat. Looking at his expression, it seemed he was no longer prepared to fight Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, because it made no sense. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang could integrate into the environment, and he had no way to deal with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang. Moreover, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang wasn't his target.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang tilted its head, meaning: "It's okay. If you tell me more information, I have better things for you to eat."

Zango couldn't understand Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's meaning. He was clearly a bit absent-minded because his commission might fail.

As one of the five Bajing race members 'carefully selected' by the Wind Prince, Zango was the strongest and the most straightforward one, so he survived the teleportation, while other clansmen died in the space vortex.

The Wind Prince sent him here without ever thinking he could succeed. Or rather, based on the Wind Prince's understanding of Su Xiao, if it were 1-on-1, Su Xiao could make this assassin from the Void doubt his life.

The Wind Prince sent people, and he had an explanation on the side of the Arcane Eternal Star. As for whether Zango could succeed, what did that have to do with the Wind Prince? He had sent the strongest person who could enter this world. Did he want him to send a spellcaster to deal with the Shadow of the Law? To send his head?

Reasonably and emotionally, the Wind Prince's decision had no problems, and he incidentally repaid Su Xiao a favor. From then on, they were even. The mineral deposit the Wind Prince obtained in the Void Arena made his father, who didn't like to laugh, very satisfied. As for subsequent matters, even if there were problems on the Wind Prince's side, his father would help him settle it.

At the top of the iceberg, after receiving Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's feedback, Su Xiao wasn't prepared to go down the mountain to fight Zango to the death. The gains and costs weren't equal. Moreover, his current state was very bad. First, he fought a battle with Moi Nora, barely recovered his injuries, then traveled a long distance to reach the extreme cold Northern Territory, and then stripped the Blade Demon energy from his body.

Currently, Su Xiao was already a bit exhausted. This wasn't a problem of the severity of his injuries, but the overdraft of stamina and energy. Therefore, he chose to return to the Reincarnation Paradise.

The teleportation feeling appeared. Su Xiao, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, and Benny left the Dark Crow World simultaneously, leaving only Zango on the ice field. By this time, Zango suddenly remembered a very critical problem: due to the squeezing of space when he arrived, his teleportation device was damaged. Now, how was he supposed to return to the Void?

*Tut-tut-tut... *

Zango in front of the fire pit shivered in the cold wind. Although it was a bit heartbreaking, he remained resolute. He was an assassin; he had no expression, and he had no feelings.

If they could meet again, Amu would definitely avenge that pinch. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang appeared to have reached a consensus with the enemy, but in reality, it had extracted a lot of information from Zango's mouth, including Zango's eating habits (which could infer Zango's hometown location) and Zango's combat experience (which could again confirm Zango's hometown location). This was an absolute crushing of intelligence. ===== CHAPTER 1591 =====
