Chapter 2139
A precise metal ball appeared in Su Xiao's hand. This thing was about the size of a basketball, with star patterns flickering on the surface.
This was the 【Star Meteor Furnace】. Before Su Xiao could check the attributes of this thing, cracks appeared on the surface of the Star Meteor Furnace. These cracks weren't regular, but they didn't appear messy either.
Arc-shaped metal plates expanded outward, and a deep blue fireball emerged in the center of the plates, with waves of heat spreading out.
Dozens of metal plates stood still in mid-air, and the fireball, nearly a meter in size, also stabilized, no longer emitting high temperatures.
After the 【Star Meteor Furnace】 unfolded, it was full of a sense of technology while also having shadows of the mysterious side. That deep blue fireball appeared beautiful and magnificent.

Introduction: The deep blue flame is a miracle; this is just a wisp of flame.
Selling Price: This item cannot be sold after use, and there is a chance it will drop after death.
Seeing the attributes of the 【Star Meteor Furnace】, Su Xiao immediately thought of a sniper rifle and two short blades.
Su Xiao had previously wondered why the quality of the weapons of Sfink's subordinates was so high. Now it seemed that they were all upgraded using the 【Star Meteor Furnace】.
That sniper rifle should have originally been Epic-grade. After consuming a large number of gems, it was upgraded to Holy Spirit-grade, which was why it had such terrifying attack power.
As for the twin blades in Connie's hands, Su Xiao felt that those two short blades weren't Holy Spirit-grade, but between Epic-grade and Holy Spirit-grade. It should be that not enough gems were put in during smelting, so they weren't upgraded to Holy Spirit-grade.
The 【Star Meteor Furnace】 was quite good. Unfortunately, Su Xiao had no gems. His scabbard, 【Gem Oath】, was a big consumer of gems and hadn't been embedded yet.
There were two chances left for the Scarlet Card draw. With this kind of start, Su Xiao had high expectations for these two times.
A moment later, the blood-colored vortex disappeared in front of Su Xiao. As for the results of the last two draws, Su Xiao selectively ignored them to avoid affecting his otherwise good mood. Heaven knows how much Sfink liked drinking coffee; in the two draw chances, Su Xiao drew nearly 60 catties of coffee beans.
Su Xiao put away the 【Star Meteor Furnace】. If he entered a world rich in gems in the future, he would consider upgrading a certain piece of equipment to Holy Spirit-grade.
However, compared to using the 【Star Meteor Furnace】 to upgrade equipment, Su Xiao now had a chance to upgrade equipment, which was to upgrade Checking Zhan Long Shan.
Su Xiao had already saved several Epic-grade weapons. The only thing he had to consider now was whether to upgrade Checking Zhan Long Shan's attributes after obtaining 2 Golden Skill Points and breaking through the limit of Supreme Blade twice.
According to Su Xiao's judgment, even if the Supreme Blade ability was upgraded, it would at most broaden the scope of weapons Checking Zhan Long Shan could devour; it was unlikely to allow Checking Zhan Long Shan to obtain more Blade Value.
The strength of each weapon was fixed. When Checking Zhan Long Shan devoured these weapons, there was no concept of efficiency. For example, when Checking Zhan Long Shan devoured Residual Moonlight, if Residual Moonlight's strength was 3, then the Blade Value it could increase was only 3%.
Of course, this was just a metaphor. Residual Moonlight's quality was very high; Su Xiao suspected that this weapon had exceeded Epic-grade but hadn't reached Holy Spirit-grade yet.
Moreover, Su Xiao hadn't obtained those 2 Golden Skill Points yet; he needed to kill the Source of Darkness, Azathoth, before he could obtain them through quest rewards.
Su Xiao couldn't guarantee that he would definitely be able to kill the Source of Darkness, Azathoth, so he decisively gave up the idea of upgrading Checking Zhan Long Shan after completing the quest. Every bit stronger he became now would add a bit more possibility of victory.
No matter what could be obtained after defeating the enemy, first, one must ensure victory; otherwise, everything was just wishful thinking.
Su Xiao took out two long blades, one straight sword, one short blade, a wooden box about 1.3 meters long, and a dagger from his storage space.
The two long blades were 【Red · Saintess】 and 【Meteor Fire Blade】. 【Red · Saintess】 was obtained by Su Xiao opening the treasure chest just now, while 【Meteor Fire Blade】 was obtained on the Zerg battlefield and was once the weapon of the Great Leader, Gulaba, later re-forged once by Reed.
The straight sword was Residual Moonlight. The short blade and dagger were obtained after assassination. The durability of these two weapons had been cleared to zero, which would affect the amount of Blade Value obtained, but it would at most reduce it by about one-fifth. After all, these two weapons weren't completely broken.
And the wooden box about 1.3 meters high standing beside Su Xiao was called the Life Box, which Su Xiao obtained in the Black Abyss. This thing was quite special; it was both a treasure chest-type item and a prop-type item.
【Life Box】
Origin: Black Abyss
Quality: Epic-grade
Type: Treasure Chest (usable once), Consumable (usable three times)
Usage Effect 1: If you choose to open this item, it will destroy its internal structure, reducing the quality of the weapons stored inside. You can randomly obtain a Golden-grade to Epic-grade quality blade-type weapon.
Usage Effect 2: There are a total of 16 Epic-grade long blades in the Life Box (currently 15, the Blind Fish has been sacrificed). The holder can consume one Soul Crystal (Large) to open the Life Box and pick any long blade to use (can be used until the end of this battle; this long blade is Epic-grade full score).
Su Xiao certainly wouldn't treat this thing as a treasure chest to open, but as a prop to use. Consuming one Soul Crystal (Large) could open the Life Box once, and it could be opened three times in total. Each time, one could draw a full-score Epic-grade long blade, with a time limit of one battle.
Each time a full-score Epic-grade long blade was drawn, Su Xiao would immediately use Checking Zhan Long Shan to devour it. Three Soul Crystals (Large) in exchange for the Blade Value of three full-score Epic-grade long blades was absolutely a huge profit—rounding it up, it was a hundred million.
Su Xiao reached his hand forward, palm downward, and activated the Supreme Blade ability. Black ghostly light surged in his hand, first clinging to Residual Moonlight, wrapping Residual Moonlight within it.
Crack, crack, crack...
The sound of friction came, and the blade of Residual Moonlight shattered rapidly. A wisp of crystal shards drifted out from the black ghostly light, crystal clear.
As soon as the crystal shards appeared, they drifted toward Checking Zhan Long Shan and were gradually devoured by Checking Zhan Long Shan. Checking Zhan Long Shan's Blade Value increased at a not-so-fast speed: 1%, 3%, 8%...
Until the Blade Value increased to 27%, the black ghostly light detached from Residual Moonlight. At this time, Residual Moonlight was already covered in rust, with many notches on the blade. This sword had gone to see its master.
Looking at Checking Zhan Long Shan's 27% Blade Value, the corner of Su Xiao's eye twitched. Upgrading from Epic-grade to Holy Spirit-grade was harder than imagined. One must know that Residual Moonlight's quality exceeded Epic-grade.
