Chapter 3924: King of Blue Shadow

Six hard prerequisites and two warning-type prerequisites—just from the face of the prerequisite requirements, one could see the weight of the King of Blue Shadow ability.

Checking the characteristics of the King of Blue Shadow after the upgrade, Su Xiao's expression was thoughtful. This ability would no longer be an ultimate move for one-on-one, but would transform into a god-level ability for group battles. However, thinking about it, the King of Blue Shadow in battles against powerhouses was actually quite average.

The damage of the King of Blue Shadow was extremely high, but the key was that the ability form wasn't good. Su Xiao needed that kind of ability that surged out instantly, like "Extreme Blade · World." The King of Blue Shadow was a super ultimate move that required timing to release, and this super ultimate move could also be charged.

Su Xiao seriously suspected that this was not an ultimate move of the Severing Soul Shadow system, but an ultimate move of the Devouring Demon Shadow or Breaking Sky Shadow, and more likely the latter. Breaking Sky Shadow was basically an active-type ability system.

In the Law-Breaking Shadow system, the coolest one must be Breaking Sky Shadow. Adding Severing Soul Shadow and Devouring Demon Shadow together, the coolness didn't even reach one-fifth of Breaking Sky Shadow.

Not only that, the only Breaking Sky Shadow of the Second Era, Cang, was also a handsome man full of mature male charm. If it weren't for the perverted brilliance of Grimm Gillian, Cang, this scumbag, would definitely be the target of verbal abuse by all enemy parties of the Law-Breaking faction.

In the Second Era, as long as it was a program where they attended some large-scale activities in the territory of allies, Cang would definitely be dragged out to represent the Law-Breaking faction to attend the celebration, so as to give the allies enough face. Of course, before leaving, Arkas would gently remind him: dare to mess around on the allies' side, and he would beat him until he was bedridden for five or six years. Note that this word "again" was the essence of the whole sentence.

As for why it was Cang who attended such activities every time, just think about it and you'll know why. Old Law-Breakers, Marvin Waltz, Kather Shuna, Grimm Gillian, Arkas, Siman Achid—when these people stood together, none of them looked like good people. That is to say, Arkas didn't look so much like the evil faction.

Among these previous Law-Breakers, Cang's strength was the weakest, and there was even a rumor that the Law-Breaking faction recruited him just to have a better image spokesperson. In fact, that was not the case. Cang still had some strength, but Breaking Sky Shadow was not very powerful in one-on-one.

Severing Soul Shadow was an ability system where a normal strike was an ultimate move, so the "King of Blue Shadow" ability of Severing Soul Shadow was generally not very good, and it wasn't just Su Xiao himself.

The appearance of one person changed this situation. That was an old Law-Breaker from the First Era. As a Severing Soul Shadow, he developed a "King of Blue Shadow" ability of the Severing Soul Shadow system, although he died without successfully mastering this ability that only existed in conception.

Having a conception was enough. There were many geniuses, wizards, and ghosts in the Law-Breaking faction of the Second Era. In the Second Era, the evaluation of the Severing Soul Shadow system by the powerhouses of the Ten Thousand Worlds was that in this system, either they were perverted to the point of being outrageous, or they were strong to the point of being outrageous, and there was also a guy who was both perverted to the point of being outrageous and strong to the point of being outrageous. That's right, the one being talked about was you, Grimm Gillian.

The one who finally perfected this ability was not Grimm Gillian, but the Star-Swallowing Arkas.

【Yes/No to perform this King of Blue Shadow · Extreme Awakening. If you need to perform this extreme awakening, you need to pay 20 Law-Breaking Skill Points.】

When mastering abilities like Soul Induction and Indestructible Physique, it only required 10 Law-Breaking Skill Points. This time, it required 20. Su Xiao sat cross-legged in front of the Awakening Monument, calm and composed. Through the training of mastering various powerful abilities, his resistance in this regard had advanced by leaps and bounds. This time, he would experience the process of "King of Blue Shadow · Extreme Awakening" from beginning to end.

With the consumption of Law-Breaking Skill Points, Su Xiao felt a blue-green energy surging from the Awakening Monument. Keeping his state of mind, he continued to feel carefully...

When Su Xiao opened his eyes, it was already evening of that day. The first thing he saw was Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's dog head, and the dog nose that was almost poked to his face, breathing hot air.

He pressed Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's dog head with one hand and used Xiang Bubu as a crutch to get up.

"Meow!"

Benny succeeded in hugging his face. A few hours ago, it thought Su Xiao was going to die. After all, at that time, Su Xiao's heartbeat dropped to once every few minutes. It climbed onto the special seat, and its mood recovered to be bright.

After Su Xiao walked a few steps, he felt sore all over. This feeling was like every cell in his body had been hammered to the limit, then recovered, and then continued to be hammered, until his body reached the edge of collapse.

Before Su Xiao performed "King of Blue Shadow · Extreme Awakening," he applied for recovery permission in advance, which helped a lot. Although he paid a total of 128,619 Soul Coins, he successfully made it through.

What was outrageous was that after this upgrade was completed, Su Xiao obtained a bonus of "Basic Physical Defense Tier +1." Using the attack of Blazing Sun Monarch · Ashlot as a metaphor, assuming Su Xiao's "Basic Physical Defense Tier" was 0, Ashlot stabbing him with a sword would cause at least 1.4–1.5 million points of damage.

After obtaining "Basic Physical Defense Tier +1," the damage of this sword would be reduced to 750,000–800,000. When obtaining "Basic Physical Defense Tier +2," the damage of this sword could only reach 450,000.

From becoming a Hunter until now, Su Xiao had only obtained this upgrade when ascending to Absolute-level. Seeing it obtained again, one could see the face of the King of Blue Shadow now.

【King of Blue Shadow: Lv. 1 (Ultimate-level · Skill)】

Skill Effect (Passive): When you are surrounded, and the number of enemies within a 1000-meter range around you exceeds 10 (combat power needs to be higher than a certain degree), your King of Blue Shadow ability will be activated, allowing you to successively obtain the following gains.

Prompt: The following stage gains are overlay-type gains and cannot be cumulatively stacked.

King of Blue Shadow · Stage 1: When there are more than 10 enemies around you, all your main attributes increase by 1.5%.

Prompt: Main attributes are Strength, Agility, Constitution, Intelligence.

King of Blue Shadow · Stage 2: When there are more than 300 enemies around you, all your main attributes increase by 1.5%, total health increases by 5%, total mana increases by 5%, and physical defense increases by 8%.

King of Blue Shadow · Stage 3: When there are more than 1000 enemies around you, all your main attributes increase by 1.5%, total health increases by 5%, total mana increases by 5%, physical defense increases by 8%, and the Core of Devouring is activated through the unique energy of the King of Blue Shadow, allowing you to subsequently kill each enemy, through ingesting the enemy's primal vitality, and through the conversion and filtering of the King of Blue Shadow · Core of Devouring, restore 0.3% of your maximum health, 0.3% of your maximum mana, and 0.3% of your maximum stamina.

What Su Xiao was most satisfied with about this ability was that the trigger condition was not high. In the middle stage, even if surrounded by tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of enemies, it was possible. But in the late stage, being surrounded by enemies only had two situations: 1. Being surrounded by elite-level enemies, 2. Being surrounded by cannon fodder.

Being surrounded by the latter didn't require bonuses. With Su Xiao's current sword technique tier, a full-charge · Magic Blade · Super Ring Break would clear the field in an instant.

On the contrary, being surrounded by elite-level enemies of the same tier was the danger that could truly take his life. It seemed absurd to be surrounded by thousands of Absolute-level powerhouses, but the enemies Su Xiao had to face were either from the Abyss or world-destroying groups. Under such circumstances, triggering "King of Blue Shadow" was really simple. Coupled with the trigger condition of "King of Blue Shadow," it wasn't being surrounded by Absolute-level powerhouses; enemies one tier lower than Su Xiao could also trigger it, that is, Ninth-tier combat power.

Imagine that when you are in a heavy Abyssal spread area and surrounded by a massive amount of Abyssal creatures, his "Blade Dao · Ring Break" might upgrade from a killing skill to a killing-recovery-health, recovery-mana, recovery-stamina skill. With one circle of Ring Break swept across, his state would be full. This kind of guarantee when facing encirclement, saying it is a god-level skill, is not an exaggeration at all.

Don't look at the current bonus of "King of Blue Shadow" being low; this ability is only Lv. 1. The upgrade priority of this ability is extremely high. With this ability, Su Xiao truly has the qualification to break into the Dark Nest Demon Cave alone.

Of course, having this ability only makes group battles particularly strong. In terms of battles against powerhouses, "King of Blue Shadow" has no bonuses. Su Xiao is not disappointed by this, because before, "King of Blue Shadow" was not only not very good at one-on-one, but also quite sluggish in group battles.

Arriving in the skill upgrade chamber, activating the skill upgrade chamber without upgrading skills, a wonderful feeling appeared. A moment later, the pain all over his body subsided. This was one of the wonderful uses of the exclusive skill upgrade chamber he discovered. Without selecting an ability to activate, meditating in it for a while could restore the physical burden after upgrading abilities. The key is that there is no need to pay Soul Coins.

The skill list of the Awakening Monument in front of him didn't disappear. Su Xiao opened the "General Passive" list. A large number of "General Passive" skills that could be mastered appeared. His plan was to master 10 "General Passive" skills every time he returned to Reincarnation Paradise after a world progress.

After selecting 10 "General Passive" skills one after another, he paid a total of 30 Law-Breaking Skill Points to master them, and paid 1,050,000 Soul Coins to upgrade the 10 "General Passive" skills mastered this time to Lv. 20. Originally, "General Passive" could only be upgraded to 10 levels, but with 【Origin Stone · World】, the strength of "General Passive" soared. He mastered a total of 22 "General Passive" skills as follows:

"Life Resuscitation (Passive, Lv. EX): Permanently increases HP by 56,000 points."

"Heart of Thunder (Passive, Lv. EX): Permanently increases Thunder Attribute Resistance by 32 points."

"Potential Awakening (Passive, Lv. EX): All potential cap tiers +1."

"Inspiration (Passive, Lv. EX): Permanently increases Perception by 25 points and Perception Intensity by 30 points."

"Physique Boost (Passive, Lv. EX): Permanently increases Body Strength by 55 points."

"Willpower Ascension (Passive, Lv. EX): Permanently increases Willpower by 10 points."

"Abyss Hunter (Passive, Lv. EX): Permanently increases Abyss Resistance by 1 point."

"Mental Amulet (Passive, Lv. EX): Permanently increases Mental Strength by 60 points."

"Proud Song · Reinforcement I (Passive, Lv. EX): Proud Song single mana consumption cap +1,000 points, Crystal Layer defense tier +1."

"Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying · Reinforcement VI (Passive, Lv. EX): Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability upgraded to full potential; after reaching Lv. 95, the gain energy required per level increases by 15%, and the amplification intensity brought by upgrading increases by 10%."

……

10 types of "General Passives" successfully acquired. Calculating this, Su Xiao has accumulated 22 types of "General Passives" alone. On his development path where basic attacks are ultimate moves, he is becoming less and less human.

Feeling his state for a moment, he finds it quite good. He activates the Skill Upgrade Chamber. His skill list appears before his eyes. After selecting "Blood Sublimation · Soul of Life: Lv. 30," he uses the 【Skill Upgrade Chamber Free Usage Authorization (One-time)】. The next second, he successfully enters dreamland. This is a 70-level high-tier technique passive upgrade at once; it would be strange if he didn't enter dreamland.

The next morning, Su Xiao, whose sleep quality was excellent, rises from the Skill Upgrade Chamber. Beni is curled up into a ball beside him. The members of Su Xiao's team are used to him upgrading his abilities; as long as it's not something like upgrading the Blue Shadow King, they won't be nervous enough to crowd around.

【Blood Sublimation · Soul of Life: Lv. MAX (Technique Class · Passive)】

Skill Effect 1: Blood Qi Attack Power increased by 980% (increased by 700%).

Skill Effect 2: Maximum value of Source Vitality increased by 50% (increased by 35%).

Hint: The HP of the Absolute Strong level can reach a maximum of 3.5 million points.

Current maximum HP can reach: 5.25 million points.

Skill Effect 3: Blood Qi system potential tier +19 (increased by 14).

Skill Effect 4: Blood Gun Grandmaster upgrade cost +50%, upgrade effect +50% (this characteristic cannot be improved by any means).

……

Su Xiao does not save the 7 Golden Skill Points and maxes out this ability. The main function of "Blood Sublimation · Soul of Life" is to increase the HP cap achievable at the Absolute Strong level. His current HP is 3 million points, and there are many channels for improvement in this regard.

In addition to these gains, the 【God Race Holy Emblem · Soul】 used this time will also increase his HP and mana. That is 3 million × 25% = 750,000 points. Counting the mana increase to 198,086 points and the corresponding "Spirit Shadow Physique" bonus, his HP will reach 3.79 million points.

For an Absolute Strong tank, this level of HP would make many main tanks unable to eat for several days. The thought is, why does this melee sword technique user have this level of HP? The answer is, with enough passives stacked, everything is possible.

The 3.79 million HP seems formidable, but recalling the powerful enemy Su Xiao killed not long ago, the First Generation Sun King, the sense of security brought by this massive HP suddenly weakens. To put it simply, previously he could withstand three great sword strikes, now he can at least withstand five!

Don't underestimate this; the fault tolerance of two great sword strikes can really allow one to do many things.

The ability upgrade is not over yet. Su Xiao still has 56 Extinguishing Law skill points, which he invests entirely into the Blue Shadow King.

【If you need to upgrade Blue Shadow King to Lv. 1, you need to consume 3 Extinguishing Law skill points.】

3 points per level; Su Xiao chooses to upgrade 18 levels. As the upgrade begins, he finds the process of upgrading the Blue Shadow King very gentle, even giving his body a nourishing feeling, making one feel a bit drowsy. When the ability upgrade is finished, he checks the current "Blue Shadow King."

【Blue Shadow King: Lv. 19 (Ultimate Class · Skill)】

Skill Effect (Passive): When you are surrounded and the number of enemies within a 1000-meter radius exceeds 10 (combat power must be above a certain level), your Blue Shadow King ability will activate, allowing you to obtain the following bonuses in succession.

Blue Shadow King · Stage One……

……

Blue Shadow King · Stage Three: When the enemies around you exceed 1000, all your main attributes increase by 8.7%, total HP increases by 21%, total mana increases by 21%, body defense increases by 23%, and through the unique energy of the Blue Shadow King, the Devouring Core is activated, allowing you to recover 3.7% of your maximum HP, 3.7% of your maximum mana, and 3.7% of your maximum stamina for every enemy you kill subsequently, through the ingestion of the enemy's source vitality and the conversion and filtering of the Blue Shadow King · Devouring Core.

……

The Blue Shadow King needs to be at least Lv. 50 or above to gradually reveal its power, but its current strength is not low. Increasing main attributes by 8.7% and total HP by 21%, in Su Xiao's current situation, is equivalent to increasing Strength, Agility, Stamina, and Intelligence by 70 points each, as well as 800,000 HP.

The simpler the bonus, the higher it is stacked, the more qualitative the change in strength will be. The Blue Shadow King is this type of ability.

Just then, Baha flies over, holding a phone. This is the phone Su Xiao left on the bedside table; it should have been bought at the Seventh Tier and can communicate within the Reincarnation Paradise. He takes the phone, glances at the caller information on it—it's an unfamiliar number. After answering the call, a somewhat nervous voice comes from the other side:

"Long... long time no see, I am Yuyuan..."

"You have the wrong number."

After speaking, Su Xiao hangs up. Just as he is about to walk out of the room, the phone in his hand rings again. It's the same number. After he answers.

"Mr. Bai Ye, we know each other. Listen to me, we have actually known each other for a long time..."

Su Xiao hangs up, unable to help but sigh in his heart. Current telemarketing is truly innovative. If he didn't have things to do, he might have finished listening. Just as this thought appeared, the phone in his hand rang again. As the saying goes, once or twice is fine, but not a third time. This telemarketing is going too far. He answers.

"Mr. Bai Ye, I am Yuyuan, a member of the Phantom Troupe who received your investment. You are an Extinguishing Law user; how can you not exempt my talent? This hateful talent only derives side effects. I go on a mission, just go out, and when I come back, the mission NPC doesn't know who I am. Woo~, I'm having such a hard time!"

Hearing this emotional speech, Baha on the side sighs: "Current telemarketing is really dedicated; it even comes with a plot."

Hearing this, a somewhat tearful, broken voice comes from the phone: "I'm not telemarketing, I'm not~!"

"……"

Su Xiao ponders for a few seconds and suddenly remembers that he seems to have invested in a low-tier Qiyuezhe named Yuyuan. First, he sold her professional inheritance items at a super low price, and then provided various types of permanent buff potions.

"Except for our leader, no one can remember me. Mr. Bai Ye, you must remember me."

Yuyuan's voice is clearly on the verge of tears.

"Long time no see, Yuyuan."

"Wah~!! You finally remembered me."

Yuyuan cries out on the other end, showing how miserably this girl has been pitted by her own talent.

The memory of Yuyuan quickly becomes clear. Su Xiao still remembers that when they first met, Yuyuan was a well-behaved girl with a somewhat shy personality. Although there was a hidden streak of mischief in her personality, her overall style was timid. Now, she has been tortured by her talent ability to the point where she is neither timid nor mischievous, becoming a crying girl prone to breaking down.

It's not that Yuyuan is pretentious; no one could stand this talent. Yesterday they were best friends who shared life and death and were willing to entrust their lives to each other, but after waking up in the morning, the friend would look at Yuyuan in surprise and ask: "Excuse me, who are you?"

In this situation, no one could handle it. The only benefit of this talent is that enemies can't remember her either. A frequent situation is that the next morning, Yuyuan's enemy sits at the dining table with a frown, the food on the table unable to arouse any appetite, instead rubbing their forehead with one hand, wondering who they had a conflict with yesterday. This person's stealth level is rare.

Su Xiao basically determines that Yuyuan's talent is not of the Causality system; otherwise, it would be basically ineffective against him. This should be some kind of very unpopular ability system. So far, the only person who exempts this talent is the leader. Of course, it is not excluded that this is the only powerful person Yuyuan can contact.

Perhaps when reaching the Supreme level, one can exempt Yuyuan's talent ability. Unpopular systems are only powerful in this regard—it is difficult to improve corresponding resistance, and the means to improve resistance are also particularly unpopular.

"Yuyuna, what are you looking for me for?"

"Uh~, it's like this, Mr. Bai Ye. Do you know about this World Struggle? I don't know what the situation is at the high tier, but as a Third Tier Qiyuezhe, I have to participate."

Yuyuan didn't correct the name Yuyuna, although she didn't know who that was.

"You promoted to Third Tier so quickly?"

"Yes, Mr. Bai Ye. But I want to say one thing: with those permanent buff potions you gave me, my progress to Third Tier was still because I was afraid of promoting too fast and chose to accumulate strength."

After saying this, Yuyuan takes a deep breath. Because she is talking to Su Xiao, she is so nervous that her hand holding the phone is shaking with excitement. After organizing her thoughts, she says: "It's like this, Mr. Bai Ye. I want to apply for another batch of investment from you. If I can win this Third Tier World Struggle, I will double the return on your investment..."

"I'm going out, make it short."

"I need... 450,000 Paradise Coins. I know this amount is high, but I will definitely..."

Su Xiao opens the communication list and scrolls down. Because there are already many people in the communication list, it takes him a few seconds to find Yuyuan. Today's market price is 1 Soul Coin = 154,350 Paradise Coins, which is less than 3 Soul Coins. The happiness of the low tier is just so simple and pure.

Editing the email and attaching 500,000 Paradise Coins, Su Xiao ignores Yuyuan, who is still listing the uses for these Paradise Coins, hangs up the phone, gives it to Amu, and goes out.

At the same time, Yuyuan, who is in her exclusive room, suddenly hears a dial tone on the phone. She feels like a deflated balloon, but she doesn't complain. Instead, she mutters: "Yuyuan, when can you get rid of the habit of being incoherent when you get excited? Even if you face a big shot, you must be calm."

Before Yuyuan finishes speaking, she receives an email. After opening it, she finds that the content of the email is empty, and the extractable balance in the attachment is 500,000 Paradise Coins. Seeing this, her gaze becomes firm. She opens the hint list and looks at the first-place reward for the World Struggle inside. With such generous funding, if she doesn't win the top reward back to thank the big shot, she will truly feel uneasy.

Yuyuan, who can't express her emotions, opens the adventure group channel and posts:

Yuyuan (No. 11): "I will definitely win this time."

Gulu (No. 6): "Oh ho~, a newcomer has joined the group."

Winnie (No. 8): "Hmm, looks like a newcomer. Witch, why did you recruit another female member? You, me, Gulu, Dance Sister, Spirit Crow, Newcomer, Fox Big Sister, a total of 11 numbering positions, seven female members. We are the Phantom Troupe, not the Phantom Girl Group."

Witch (No. 10): "I, did, not, recruit."

Winnie (No. 8): "You are also intermittent when typing. It seems that last time Bai Ye cleaned you up, it was too light."

Spirit Crow (No. 9): "Tell me in detail, I want to hear it."

Winnie (No. 8): "You know the Witch's habit of speaking; it can make people anxious. Last time she spoke to Bai Ye like this, and then she was... (the following content is paid to view)."

Gulu (No. 6): "Laugh to death, how could anyone pay."

Hint: Dance Sister has successfully paid.

Spirit Crow (No. 9): "Ah this~"

Illusionist (No. 4): "What tier is the new member? In the next world progress, I will take people to the Nightmare Dungeon and leave a free spot for you."

Yuyuan (No. 11): "Illusionist, Gulu, Witch Sister, Spirit Crow, I am not a newcomer. You just forgot me because of my talent ability."

Puppeteer (No. 2): "Seems, indeed a bit of an impression. Oh, you are that little transparent that Bai Ye invested in."

Yuyuan (No. 11): "Fox Big Sister, don't call me little transparent directly, although I really am a little transparent."

Puppeteer (No. 2): "Yuyuan, accepting Bai Ye's investment, you must be very uneasy."

Yuyuan (No. 11): "Yes, yes."

Puppeteer (No. 2): "No need to be uneasy. I have the same experience as you. At that time, the leader sponsored me, and I once thought I was a sacrifice cultivated by some conspiracy of his. Until later, there was a time when we didn't contact for half a year. I contacted him, and he actually replied, 'Who are you?' I almost cracked at that time."

Yuyuan (No. 11): "Actually, being replied 'Who are you' is not the most uncomfortable thing."

Puppeteer (No. 2): "Oh? How did Bai Ye reply to you?"

Yuyuan (No. 11): "The big shot thought I was telemarketing, and his Magic Eagle even praised my sales pitch for being creative."

Witch (No. 10): "Pfft~"

Gulu (No. 6): "Hahahaha."

Puppeteer (No. 2): "Okay, your situation is more wonderful. In short, don't have too much pressure. Bai Ye is at the top of the Absolute Strong level, you are Third Tier, he won't covet anything of yours."

Yuyuan (No. 11): "Then, why invest in me? There must be a reason."

Puppeteer (No. 2): "Because it's interesting, right, Witch? My only investment, and the ultimate salted fish failure product invested."

Puppeteer (No. 2): "Damn! The more I think about it, the angrier I get. Witch, where are you, speak!"

Hint: Witch has temporarily exited the team communication channel.

Spirit Crow (No. 9): "She is at the cold drink shop near the Forging Street."

Gulu (No. 6): "Laugh to death, if you want to say cute and bitchy, it has to be you, Spirit Crow. No, why am I laughing? Last time it was you who sold my location, letting me be caught by this mother fox, right? Where are you now?!"

Hint: Spirit Crow has temporarily exited the team communication channel.

……

Forging Street.

As soon as Su Xiao arrives here, he sees the tightly closed door of Reed's Forging Shop. It's not that he is closing the door to hide from him; it's that every time the world progress ends, Reed stops taking forging orders and starts to recuperate, preparing to face the dual challenges of psychology and craftsmanship.

Knock, knock, knock.

Su Xiao knocks on the metal door. Soon, Wo Wo opens the door. Wo Wo, dressed as a forging apprentice, sniffs his nose. Looking at those red-rimmed eyes, this is being scolded by Reed again.

Walking into the forging shop, Su Xiao sees Reed sitting in front of the furnace and forging table. The unshaven Reed is drinking beer. Seeing Su Xiao come, he lifts the beer in his hand without any ripples in his heart.

Actually, Su Xiao also has a bit of conscience. He also knows that it is inappropriate to ask the blacksmith to repair the long leather coat, but looking at the equipment repair world of the Reincarnation Paradise, he only knows that Reed has the level to repair the 【Wild Hunt Night】 long leather coat.

In order to make the remaining bit of conscience not hurt, Su Xiao previously took many forging books from the Old Monster in the Great Library of the Blazing Sun Star. As a challenger of the past, the Old Monster naturally wouldn't be stingy in this regard, giving Su Xiao all the ancient forging knowledge books accumulated from the First Era to the present.

Su Xiao takes out a bottle of Elemental Brew, which is a batch of Elemental Brew just brought back from the Eternal Light World. If the previous version of Elemental Brew was a treasure close to a hundred-year vintage, this time it is a top-grade product aged for hundreds of years. The eight "Time Crystallized Objects" fixed on the large barrel of Black Maple mixed wood have brought the "God King Brewing Method" to the extreme.

"Consider your conscience not yet extinguished."

Reed pulls out the cork and takes a big gulp. With such fine wine down his throat, a smile immediately appears on his face.

"……"

Su Xiao doesn't speak, taking out a metal box containing dozens of "Ancient Forging Books." Reed opens it with suspicion, takes out an ancient book to read, and his gaze gradually changes from suspicion to solemnity, and finally, his eyes are even bulging.

"This, this, this... how embarrassing."

Reed says this, but his hand has already slapped the metal box shut, kicked the chair aside, put down the metal box, and sat on it. It is impossible to want it back unless he is killed.

Is Su Xiao because his conscience is not yet extinguished? Of course, but the "careless" him forgot to tell Reed that after the death battle against the First Generation Sun King, the 【Wild Hunt Night】, an Eternal-level equipment, had a qualitative change because the Ember Power inside was absorbed to 100%.

【Wild Hunt Night】

Origin: Dark Crow World.

Quality: Eternal level.

Category: Long leather coat.

Durability: 1.5/450 points (increased by 150 points).

Basic Defense: 90 points (increased by 30 points).

Eternal-level leather armor basic bonus: 15% physical/energy damage reduction.

Equipment Requirements: Real Stamina 650 points, Real Intelligence 650 points, hunted more than 15 divine units (already achieved).

Equipment Effect 1: Spirit Outfit (Passive), for every 3000 points of mana the wearer has, this equipment will additionally increase by 15 points of defense, 3 points of penetration resistance, 3 points of high-temperature reduction, and 3 points of erosion reduction.

Already increased: 500 points of equipment defense (the cap for increase is 500 points).

Already increased: 160 points of penetration resistance (the cap for increase is 160 points).

Already increased: 160 points of high-temperature reduction (the cap for increase is 160 points).

Already increased: 160 points of erosion reduction (the cap for increase is 160 points).

Equipment Effect 2: Warm Nourishment (Passive), the "Ember Warmth" contained within this equipment will nourish your vitality. After you are injured, this recovery effect will increase. For every 10% of maximum HP you lose, this recovery effect will double until it accumulates to the maximum value, lasting until the end of the battle.

Hint: Due to your super high HP cap, this equipment can help you recover up to 150% of your HP in a single battle.

Equipment Effect 3: Ember Fire (Core · Passive), Ember Fire was originally a miracle fire ignited in the abyss, possessing the powerful characteristic of using abyss energy as fuel. Later, it was brought from the abyss to the Wind Sea Continent by the Abyss Clan · Azguk family. Because this Ember Fire can burn everything, including the world it is in, it was sealed by the Beast King of the Wind Sea Continent. Later, it was obtained by you, an Extinguishing Law user, and used as the main material to improve this equipment.

This equipment has been severely damaged many times, but it has also been repaired to its best state many times, and this successful promotion to an Eternal-level full-rating equipment has made this characteristic more intense, thus it has withstood the awakened "Ember Fire," giving this equipment the following characteristics.

Hint: This equipment has suffered severe damage (overall damage exceeds 85%) and has been repaired to its best after suffering severe damage. The strength and rating of this equipment will be improved accordingly.

Hint: Due to this characteristic, the repair difficulty of this equipment is increased by 900% (difficulty increased by 805%).

Introduction: Crafted by Forging Grandmaster Reed, it is a legendary-level equipment that theoretically ranks in the top three for defense among Eternal-level leather armor equipment to date. But for some reason, this forging grandmaster is not proud of crafting this equipment, but every time he sees it, Forging Grandmaster Reed will be so excited that he grinds his teeth.

Rating: 6000 points (Eternal-level equipment rating 3000–6000 points.)

Price: Cannot be traded.

……

Su Xiao glances at Reed, who is still immersed in the joy of obtaining a large number of "Ancient Forging Books." He leaves behind the equipment that needs maintenance and repair, finally puts down the 【Wild Hunt Night】 with "repair difficulty increased by 900%," as well as the 【King's Crown】, one of the five most difficult pieces of equipment to repair, and walks quickly out of the forging shop.

Reed's equipment repair level is rising in a straight line, which is obviously related to this. After all, among the five most difficult pieces of equipment to repair in the world, he holds two himself.

Out of the forging shop, Su Xiao skillfully blocks Reed for 48 hours and then walks toward the Equipment Reinforcement Hall.
