Chapter 3155: Forging

In the study of the ancient castle, as a cold aura recedes, the lights in the study flicker and finally stabilize, illuminating the study brightly.

The window is pushed open by Baha, and the cool night breeze blows into the room. The only feeling in Su Xiao's heart is relaxation, incomparable relaxation.

If it weren't for the Blood of Fate, he wouldn't have set up so many things. He would have slashed them one by one long ago, which would be much simpler, and there would be treasure chests and world origin to take.

Even so, such a long layout is absolutely worth it. 【Blood of Fate】 is the third World-grade item Su Xiao has obtained, of course, excluding World-grade treasure chests.

World-grade is a very special quality. Items of this quality either represent significant meaning or involve world power, etc.

The first two items Su Xiao obtained were 【World Tree Ring】 and 【Withered Sound Greatsword】. The former has already been consumed; Su Xiao used this as an opportunity to become a Law-Exterminator. As for 【Withered Sound Greatsword】, this is the 'key' to enter the real Dead Silence City.

Due to limited strength, Su Xiao is not yet prepared to court death. He will at least reach the point where he has few rivals in the eighth tier before he goes to explore the true face of Dead Silence City.

The 'branch area' of Dead Silence City he went to last time, he was cautious the whole time, but as long as it was an enemy he could see, there were very few that Su Xiao could beat.

He was able to defeat the Black King mainly because the Black King could not leave the Birth Hall. Su Xiao greeted the other party with Apollo and the rare item 【Soul Shackle】, and then besieged the Black King together with the old stick · Ken · Rahan and Amu, almost being counter-killed, barely winning.

Su Xiao wants to be steady this time. He doesn't have such good luck that he can always meet a reliable and powerful teammate like Ken · Rahan. Even though he feels that even if he reaches the top tier of the eighth tier, after arriving at Dead Silence City, he still has to be steady, but as long as he doesn't have to be cautious, it's fine.

Su Xiao looks at the sealed bottle nearly 10 centimeters high. The golden-red blood inside seems to have life. He tries to view its attributes, but fails. 【Blood of Fate】 is in a sealed state.

This cannot stump Su Xiao. He takes out 【Light Water (Holy Spirit-grade)】 from the storage space. This item was enhanced by the Golden Scale. The characteristics were not greatly improved, but the scope of use is wider.

Pouring 【Light Water】 on the sealed bottle, a hissing sound spreads. A kind of obsession-like thing dissipates. This seal looks inconspicuous, but it is particularly troublesome. If he clashes hard with this seal, he will most likely be rejected by this world, so Su Xiao avoided its edge, endured the heartache, and took out a Holy Spirit-grade item.

The seal of the Blood of Fate was successfully eliminated. Su Xiao views the attributes of 【Blood of Fate】.

【Blood of Fate】

Origin: No specific production world, this is an item that appeared due to multiple factors.

Quality: World-grade

Category: Rare item/Material/Permanent buff item/Special equipment.

Material effect: This is a miracle blood that transcends the original, and can attract world lightning.

Equipment effect: Carry this item with you, Luck attribute +5, fortune rises slightly.

Permanent buff item drinking effect: Can drink this miracle blood. After drinking, there is a 3.15% probability of absorbing the 'miracle' contained within, thereby becoming a World Child (after contractors and Hunters become World Children, they will not receive the blessing of world power, but will obtain 'Professional Inheritance · Heaven's Choice', the potential of this professional inheritance is S+).

Score: None

Introduction: Thanks to friendship, it is precisely that firm friendship that allowed this miracle blood to appear.

Selling price: World-grade treasure chest x1.

At a glance, there are three ways to use 【Blood of Fate】: carry it with you to add luck, drink it, or sell it for a World-grade treasure chest.

In Su Xiao's view, 【Blood of Fate】 has a greater role: use it as a material to engrave a mark on a piece of equipment in the form of a mark.

This equipment, Su Xiao had already chosen. He takes out a cluster of dark green tree roots coiled together from the storage space. This equipment is named 【Wood Spirit】, obtained by Su Xiao in the Naruto world after killing Senju Hashirama. Later, through the baptism of curse power in the Magic Sea, all the characteristics of this equipment were washed away, and the quality was instead improved.

【Wood Spirit】

Origin: Naruto

Quality: Holy Spirit-grade

Category: Self-adaptive

Durability: 155/155 points

Equipment requirement: Self-adaptive.

Equipment effect: No characteristics.

Score: 930 points (Holy Spirit-grade equipment score 700~1000 points.)

Introduction: This equipment has extremely strong ductility and can develop in multiple directions such as darkness, life, curse, etc. After the characteristics are selected, they cannot be changed.

Selling price: Soul-bound after wearing.

The current 【Wood Spirit】 is a very good carrier, but this is not enough. Su Xiao takes out multiple items from the storage space and places them on the desk in front of him, including various instruments for engraving, as well as 【Star Meteor Furnace (Immortal-grade)】, 7 Holy Spirit-grade gems, and 15 Epic-grade gems.

Su Xiao prepares to imprint a mark on 【Wood Spirit】 using the Blood of Fate as a material, but this still doesn't reach the degree he wants. 【Star Meteor Furnace】 is the best medium.

【Star Meteor Furnace】

Origin: Apocalypse Paradise (Unique)

Number of uses: 1/1

Usage effect: Can perform secondary forging on Epic-grade ~ Holy Spirit-grade equipment. During the forging period, you can put Legendary-grade ~ Holy Spirit-grade gems into the Star Meteor Furnace. The quality and quantity of the gems put in will directly affect the result of the secondary forging.

Prompt: Secondary forging can increase equipment to Immortal-grade at most.

Warning: This item can only enhance metal-type equipment. Other types of equipment will have a high probability of causing equipment destruction, quality decline, etc.

Wood Spirit is obviously not metal-type equipment, and directly using 【Star Meteor Furnace】 to enhance it is not feasible, but this does not mean it is completely impossible.

The azure flame inside 【Star Meteor Furnace】 is the point. Putting gems into it is to make this flame more vigorous.

Su Xiao picks up the 7 Holy Spirit-grade gems and 15 Epic-grade gems on the table. These are all soul coins, but he feels that this investment should not be a loss. No matter what, the Blood of Fate is a World-grade item.

Putting all the gems into 【Star Meteor Furnace】, the fire-blue flame rises. Su Xiao's hand reaches above this furnace. Following his manipulation, the azure flame inside 【Star Meteor Furnace】 gradually dims, and a wisp of azure small flame appears in his hand.

A soul crystal (complete) floats up from the table. Careful observation will reveal that the inside of the soul crystal is a hollow structure, forming a mark-like shape.

Kingsley's secret method of attracting lightning uses the blood of the World Child to outline the 'Holy Father' mark. Su Xiao, relying on alchemy and a certain degree of Ancient God studies, improved the 'Holy Father'

The Blood of Fate surged into the specially made soul crystal, forming a mark according to the hollow shape inside. With a 'whoosh', azure flames appeared around the soul crystal, using soul energy as fuel. While burning slowly, they began to refine the Blood of Fate within the soul crystal.

This wasn't the end of it. Su Xiao activated the Wood Spirit, causing it to climb onto the soul crystal. The moment it made contact, the Wood Spirit was burned by the azure flames until it hissed.

Crack—

The root-like Wood Spirit penetrated the outer shell of the soul crystal and began to grow into the interior of the soul crystal, occupying the inside of the soul crystal in no time.

Inside the fist-sized soul crystal, the 'Thunder Sacrifice' mark formed by the Blood of Fate was at the very center, with the Wood Spirit distributed outside it, and on the outermost layer, the azure flames attached to the exterior of the soul crystal burned slowly; the three reached a balance.

Crack!

A muffled thunderclap struck from above, the lightning hitting the top of the ancient castle directly, and rubble and sparks fell into the study.

Su Xiao looked at the large hole in the ceiling, then looked at the 【Wood Spirit】 in his hand that was undergoing metamorphosis within the soul crystal. This would transform into a new piece of equipment, completely different from the original characteristics of the 【Wood Spirit】.

"Boss, this should be... a coincidence, right?"

Baha said something that even he himself didn't believe.

"Woof—"

Bubu Wang retreated, leaning against the wall.

Su Xiao looked up at the sky, the starry sky filling his vision. Being struck by lightning in weather without a single cloud could not be a coincidence.

【Prompt: The Wood Spirit is undergoing metamorphosis; this metamorphosis is expected to be completed in 76 hours and 49 minutes.】

Lightning brewed in the sky, but Su Xiao didn't care. As long as that kind of golden lightning or other lightning with extraordinary characteristics didn't strike, being struck by lightning was nothing; it could even increase his lightning resistance.

On the boundless sea, a wooden board drifted with the waves. A flash of lightning slid across the sky, illuminating the dark sea surface.

On the wooden board in the sea, a cat-person squatted, rising and falling with the waves. It was Benny. Her gaze was calm; she was already used to it!

Benny yawned leisurely. In this pitch-black night, a bolt of lightning flashed across, and suddenly, Benny saw an "archipelago" ahead.

"Meow!!"

Benny wept with joy. What she regretted was that the "archipelago" ahead was pitch black, but even an uninhabited island was better than drifting at sea; she wasn't a message in a bottle.

Benny lay on the wooden board, paddling with her four little paws. The closer she got to the "archipelago" ahead, the more Benny felt something was wrong. Under the battering of the giant waves, those islands seemed to have sunk a bit?

This made Benny find it hard to believe. She stared ahead and began to observe carefully. Half an hour later, a large wave washed over, and sure enough, a reef island in the archipelago sank.

Confirming all this, Benny's tears welled up instantly. She had been drifting at sea for so long and finally encountered an archipelago, only for the archipelago to be sinking.

In reality, this was no archipelago, but the Western Continent, which had already sunk for the most part. Seen at night, it indeed looked like a dense archipelago.

Just as Benny was about to break down in tears, lights shone from behind, and a steel warship appeared not far away.
