Chapter 3974: Supreme
This battle cannot be considered a lucky victory, because from the beginning, Su Xiao didn't think he could defeat such a level of Abyss powerful existence head-on.
On the high-speed Lord Train, Su Xiao leaned on a single sofa, slowly feeling the recovery of his body after drinking "Vitality Original Liquid."
"Vitality Original Liquid, Perfect (Immortal Level): After drinking, it can rapidly restore 45% of health, and restore 300 health points per second afterward. This effect lasts for 180 seconds (Perfect grade bonus: after drinking, significantly reduce potion resistance)."
Immortal Level < Origin Level < Eternal Level.
This potion is already very good, but there is a problem. His current health upper limit has reached 5.41 million points. This potion can still have a certain effect, which is already very powerful. It seems that new recovery potions need to be put on the agenda.
Two ways out: develop it himself or find an existing formula. With his Lv. 95 pharmacy level, he naturally has the confidence to develop a high-quality recovery potion, but this takes time. Without that kind of flash of inspiration, it is conservatively estimated that it will take several years to develop a potion with high effects on his current physique.
Looking at it this way, he can only find existing ones. The problem is, in terms of pharmacy, the lower the grade of the potion, the more types of recovery potions, and the fewer permanent buff potions. This is because early permanent potions are too popular. But in the later stage of pharmacy, the number of high-grade recovery potion formulas is less than one percent of permanent buff potions.
There are two reasons: one is that permanent buff potions are more popular, which is common at any strength stage. Coupled with the fact that in the Void and Myriad Worlds, after reaching a high-tier strength, the combat intensity is not high.
Some supreme beings may not make a move for decades, or even a hundred years. In the forces they belong to, as long as they are still alive, they are the guardian gods of their side.
Demand brings market, market gives value, value derives development, and ultra-high-order recovery potions are stuck on the demand side. As for whether supreme beings will hoard some high-order healing secret medicines to prepare for emergencies, that is of course, and they will replace the inventory every few years or longer. Even so, still no one likes to develop this kind of thing.
Su Xiao estimated that this kind of formula can only be found in that kind of ultra-high-risk world that is eroded by the Abyss all year round, which can force the natives there to develop it. Although this kind of formula is very rough, as long as it is slightly improved, it may be an Origin-level potion. If an Eternal-level recovery potion is improved, then it will be a big profit.
Suddenly, Su Xiao had a new inspiration, which was that he had fallen into a misunderstanding. He didn't need to develop high-order recovery potions in the ordinary sense. High-order recovery potions on the market need to sacrifice treatment effects for storage time.
This is to cater to the needs of supreme beings. People don't make a move for decades, and they won't be injured nine times out of ten when they make a move. Even if they are injured, they will heal themselves in a while. Good guy, you sell people recovery potions with a shelf life of two months, isn't this purely funny?
The problem is, Su Xiao can use this kind of healing potion. Don't talk about two months, one month, even fifteen days, as long as the effect is top-notch, it is useful to him.
First of all, he is a pharmacist himself and can prepare it himself. Secondly, every time he enters a world, it takes 1~2 months, or twenty-odd days at the shortest. Moreover, he also has a Lord Train. In the bedroom of the train, there is a simple alchemy test bench compared to the exclusive room, but it is more than enough to prepare various potions.
The train of thought gradually diverged, and Su Xiao had a new idea. It is best to make a potion that can be absorbed by the skin, has a short cooling time, and has a strong effect. When fighting fiercely, just take it out of the storage space and crush it, which is equivalent to drinking. Plus, it is prepared by himself, the cost is very low, and he doesn't feel bad about how much he drinks during the battle.
Just like the battle just now, Su Xiao took out a bottle of potion and drank it whenever he had a chance, and also threw a bottle to the Steel Demon Dragon, Cain.
After drinking the "Vitality Original Liquid," Cain was shocked by the effect of this potion. When Su Xiao threw the second and third bottles, Cain said that it would be a lie to say he wasn't moved. This kind of potion couldn't be bought at a high price from potion peddlers, and it could only be obtained occasionally when opening treasure chests or visiting trading streets.
However, what Cain didn't know was that Su Xiao brought a total of 210 bottles of this kind of potion when he participated in this Paradise Contest, and later prepared more than 200 bottles during his spare time.
Not only Cain, but Magic Scythe Tailide and Water Brother, who were in the death battle, were seriously injured halfway, and because the healing-type died, they each drank more than a dozen bottles of "Vitality Original Liquid."
Su Xiao took out a one-way communicator. Although this kind of communicator can only communicate one-way, it can transmit messages across world barriers to people in other worlds.
After sending a message to Crystal Ji in the Painting World, Su Xiao fell into deep thought. He felt that the mining team in the Painting World could no longer last long, just looking at those few goods.
Black A.
Boiling Red, Elisa.
Crystal Ji.
Sun Apostle.
These guys, either rebellious sons (Black A), or tea-like (Crystal Ji), or two-five boys who have been bewitched by the Priest (Dark Sun Apostle), and the little cotton-padded jacket (Boiling Red, Elisa) that was originally thought to be reliable, after the awakening of the ability's "Boiling Red characteristic," has a feeling of turning into a black-hearted little cotton-padded jacket.
In fact, the appearance of these four guys was originally a coincidence among coincidences, and it was also a detour Su Xiao took in alchemy. As a result, this detour went on and on, and it became independent.
But a detour is a detour after all, instability is inevitable, and coupled with the profit of hundreds of thousands of soul coins obtained through this, it is considered a big profit.
But it's not without unexpected gains. Crystal Ji, who was originally thought to be unreliable and tea-like, seemed to have understood the situation and began to hug his thigh. Coupled with Crystal Ji's former identity as the North Territory Princess holding shares in the Shadow Chamber of Commerce, these shares were naturally obtained by her seamlessly.
What Su Xiao asked Crystal Ji to do this time was to contact the "Pharmacist Guild" in the Void. Last time he was in the Arcane Eternal Star, he gave the old guys of the "Pharmacist Guild" a step down, and didn't slap these top pharmacy masters in the face with his superb pharmacy. That side also took the opportunity to send a favor, which is 【Pharmacist Guild, Holy Flame Badge (Pharmacist Master Badge)】.
Although it was later revealed that the Holy Flame Pharmacist was an Extinguishing Law-type, the Pharmacist Guild wouldn't break off contact with Su Xiao because of this. Several old immortals of the Pharmacist Guild are guests of honor of major forces and bring huge wealth to the Arcane Eternal Star every year.
Su Xiao's idea is to let Crystal Ji represent him to contact the Pharmacist Guild, so as to facilitate the subsequent purchase of formulas, potion materials, etc. In terms of the acquisition channels for potion materials, even the Void and Myriad Worlds' number one chamber of commerce, the Goblin Chamber of Commerce, is not as good as the Pharmacist Guild.
This is also testing Crystal Ji's ability. If her ability is indeed sufficient, it would be good to support her as an agent in the Void. Su Xiao is a hunter of the Reincarnation Paradise and doesn't have so much time to do it himself. Before, he entrusted Reed to help, but Reed is a good friend, not a superior-subordinate relationship. It is not appropriate to always trouble others.
Su Xiao looked at Fenny, who was sitting on the seat diagonally opposite, looking at the window in a daze. This healing-type hid in the Lord Train before and survived. Facts have proved that this "Lord Train" is quite powerful. Facing an Abyss area where the concentration is not particularly exaggerated, it can still resist, which made Su Xiao decide that if possible, he would further improve the Lord Train later.
After handling this matter, Su Xiao opened the prompt information after defeating the Abyss Guard Chief.
【You have killed the Abyss Guard Chief.】
【You obtained 500 Hunter Coins.】
【You obtained Broken Source x2 (items unique to this Paradise Contest).】
【You obtained Original Core Treasure Chest (after opening, you can obtain 1~10 Original Cores).】
【You obtained Abyss Treasure Chest (★★★★★).】
【Original Core Treasure Chest】 is undoubtedly a good thing. Su Xiao fought hard for so long and only saved 17. Moreover, this is the "core item" required for promotion to the supreme level, the more the better.
Most supreme beings of ordinary forces chose 50 "Original Fragments" as the promotion required items, and some forces with some strength chose five 【Original Cores】 as the promotion required items.
However, today's good mood came to an abrupt end when the "Abyss Treasure Chest" prompt appeared. Su Xiao clearly remembered that when he opened the 【Abyss Treasure Chest】 in the past, he opened the "Nether Bone Ring," a big daddy-level original sin item.
But if you don't open it, as long as the 【Abyss Treasure Chest】 produces goods, it is a windfall. It is not an exaggeration to say that the gains of a whole world progress are not as good as what is opened from an 【Abyss Treasure Chest】. Not to mention, this is still a five-star grade Abyss Treasure Chest. But if you open it, if you really open a big daddy-level original sin item, you really can't hold it now. The situation of the "Original Sin Book" at this time is:
Page 1: Collector.
Page 2: Death Book.
Page 3: Scarlet Scepter.
Page 4: Sun Mask.
Page 5: Nether Bone Ring.
Page 6: Soul Crown.
Page 7: World-Eating Worm.
Page 8: Abyss Race, Eternal Night Empress.
Taking any one of these is enough to make the big forces or big families in the myriad worlds "happy" until they go into shock. But in Su Xiao's place, there are eight.
After weighing for a moment, Su Xiao decided to open this thing after returning to the Reincarnation Paradise. If this time goes smoothly, then the next world will be the time to promote to supreme. The test of promoting to supreme is the most difficult of all tests. Of course, you have to make full preparations.
As for what to do if you open another big daddy-level original sin item, he estimated that based on his luck... cough~, let's not mention luck for now, there are only a few big daddy-level original sin items, and he has sealed six of them alone. He should not be able to open any new big daddy-level original sin items.
Thinking of this, Su Xiao felt a bit more at ease. He opened the task list:
【Abyss Task, Death Endowment.】
Difficulty Level: Lv. 98~???
Task Introduction: Eliminate "Undying Abyss Breeding Things" and "Abyss Race."
Prompt: Because the relevant permissions have been activated, the killing range of this task has been expanded.
Task Deadline: No limit.
Task Reward: Determine the final gain based on the total number of "Undying Abyss Breeding Things" and "Abyss Race" eliminated and the comprehensive danger/combat strength.
Prompt: The cumulative calculation method of the task completion degree of this task is: after you successfully kill a target unit, increase "the task completion degree corresponding to the target unit's danger degree" + "35% of the current existing task completion degree," which is the task completion degree increased this time.
Current Task Completion Degree: 119.765%.
Task Scope: Any world.
Task Penalty: None.
Prompt: This task can be abandoned at any time. After abandoning, you will lose the qualification to accept this task again forever.
This task can be said to be more and more refreshing as it stacks, but Su Xiao feels that this task cannot continue to stack. The reason is that he is about to promote to supreme. The promotion specification he prepared for the supreme this time determines his "achievable combat power upper limit" after reaching the supreme level.
It is a pity that after promoting to supreme, he will definitely encounter many powerful Abyss powerful existences. If he can reactivate this task, it will be a big profit.
After weighing it, it is not reliable to find Caesar for this matter. Caesar is not good at operating this kind of "fairness perfection." It is best to have that kind of "permission item" that can replicate tasks.
Su Xiao took out all the "Broken Sources" in the storage space, totaling 17. Originally he had 15 pieces. Because of the accidental breaking of the seal by the Abyss Guard Chief this time, the Void Tree made adaptive changes to the rules of this round of competition. During the battle to defeat the Abyss Guard Chief, the higher the comprehensive contribution, the more "Broken Sources" obtained.
Theoretically, he shouldn't just be divided into two pieces, but his kill contribution was too high, leading to most of the kill rewards going to him. Under the notarization balance of the Void Tree, a few pieces of "Broken Sources" were distributed to the remaining four teams.
Because the Priest used a certain permission item before, the 50 "Broken Sources" of this Paradise Contest became 52. Of course, if there are two sides with 26 pieces each, then in the last round, an extra piece will appear.
Calculating this way, the subsequent two rounds of confrontation areas will be 8 "Broken Sources" in the "Ruins Outskirts," 21 "Broken Sources" initially deployed in the "Dawn Ruins," and 1 piece reserved.
If the final decision becomes 27 pieces, with Su Xiao's current 17 pieces, even if he gets all 8 in the next round, he cannot win. In this way, he doesn't need to fight for it with all his strength in the next round, but keep his trump card for the "Dawn Ruins."
Su Xiao didn't forget that he still had the 【Dawn Badge】 unused. This is the key to activating the "Potential Transcendence Device." His current strength, agility, physique, and intelligence are all at the absolute strong level extreme value of 800 points. If he wants to reach the 900 points that are the most extreme in this tier, he can only rely on the "Potential Transcendence Device," a facility unique to the Dawn Paradise.
Glancing at the prompt that appeared just now, Su Xiao found that there were still 10 minutes of stay time in this world, and he didn't go to the "Dawn Ruins Outskirts" immediately, but first went to the rest area to rest for 36 hours before facing the final melee.
The rules of this competition are very cruel. Only when all members of a team die will that paradise camp be eliminated. From the current situation, the captains chosen by the major paradise camps are all correct. They survived this round of slaughter and retained the team fire of their respective paradise camps.
Apocalypse Paradise team remaining members: Su Xiao.
Death Paradise team remaining members: Cain, Water Brother.
Sanctuary Paradise team remaining members: Priest, Priest, Priest, Priest, Priest.
Saint Light Paradise team remaining members: Magic Scythe Tailide.
Watcher Paradise team remaining members: Hao Chou, Black Demon, Platinum Apostle.
Can only say, good guy, Baha really guessed it right. The five people in the Priest team are really all Priests.
Before, it was thought that only six people survived. After the battle, it was discovered that the Black Demon was still alive. Sliding toward the Abyss, it avoided the battle area.
Compared to these, at this time in the rest area, those backup members of each paradise must be very uneasy. They can all see the situation of their respective main teams. That team that was instantly emptied and only had the captain left is enough to make their heart stop for a few beats.
Presumably, the rest area is already full of wailing. The 27 vacant spots of the eight teams will be supplemented by them after the next round starts. Even if they are not necessarily chosen, the remaining participants recruited by each paradise camp this time total only more than a hundred. A conservative estimate of a one-fifth probability is enough to make everyone's liver tremble.
Among them, the people in the Watcher Paradise camp are the most bitter, because after they are chosen to join the team, they are in the same team as Hao Chou, Black Demon, and Platinum Apostle, which can't help but make people make an unkind laugh.
However, compared to this side, the rest area of the Apocalypse Paradise camp is completely quiet. After they are chosen to join the team, they are in the same team as the humanoid overlord unit, Bai Ye. Even more terrifying is that the Apocalypse Paradise now has 10 team spots for two teams. After one round, 8 team spots are empty, which is too scary.
【Announcement (Void Tree): World Contest, Round 4 has ended.】
【Current team ranking:】
First place: Apocalypse Paradise, Bai Ye team (17 Broken Sources).
Second place: Sanctuary Paradise, Priest team (2 Broken Sources), Watcher Paradise, Hao Chou team (2 Broken Sources).
Third place: Death Paradise, Cain team (1 Broken Source), Saint Light Paradise, Magic Scythe team (1 Broken Source).
【Prompt: All teams will arrive at the neutral area to rest.】
【Paradise Contest, Round 5 will start in 35 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds.】
Space fluctuations appeared on the central teleportation array in the rest area. When the space ripples dissipated, Su Xiao and the other eight stood on the wooden metal array platform, looking around. This is an area similar to a tree hole, about a few thousand square meters. The center is a giant teleportation array like a tree stump. There are more than a dozen rest areas around, and the seats in each rest area are intertwined with branches.
On the south wall, six arches were temporarily opened, each about five meters high and three meters wide. Above the arches are the brands of the six major paradises. Of course, there is no Reincarnation Paradise brand, otherwise, Su Xiao wouldn't need to participate in this competition as a participant of the Apocalypse Paradise.
The originally noisy rest area suddenly became quiet. Several people walked off the teleportation platform, and two groups of participants crowded over. One team was looking for Cain, whose prestige in the Death Paradise camp was there, and the other team was very interesting, all of them were participants of the Apocalypse Paradise. They all surrounded Fenny, and one of the healing-type royal sisters grabbed Fenny's hand quite excitedly:
"Fenny, how did you survive?"
"Uh~"
Fenny's expression was a bit wonderful. Suddenly she thought that most of the things she did along the way following Su Xiao couldn't be said, especially those related to the adjudicator named Caesar. No one would believe it if she said it out.
"I of course... of course rely on my personal ability."
Fenny's words made a group of Apocalypse Paradise battle angels or contractors fall into silence.
"What kind of look is this? I am very strong."
Obviously, Fenny's words failed to convince everyone.
Su Xiao walked past not far away. Suddenly, his footsteps paused, thinking of a problem. Since some auxiliary-type contractors of the Apocalypse Paradise didn't want to participate in the subsequent slaughter, could he, as the captain, sell "entry and exit" to avoid the subsequent danger spots?
Under normal circumstances, daring to do this would inevitably be punished by the Apocalypse Paradise. From the perspective of notarization, the Reincarnation Paradise also has no rule system to block this kind of punishment.
The problem is that Su Xiao won the ownership of all worlds in the previous four competitions, which has far exceeded the peak value of the Paradise Contest's revenue estimate in the Apocalypse Paradise's notarization. In this way, in the subsequent rounds of this competition, the Apocalypse Paradise's notarization of Su Xiao might be much looser.
In this case, the space for manipulation is large. Su Xiao's team has three vacant team spots. Selling one exit spot for 300,000 soul coins, three is 900,000. If there are two more rounds, it will be a full 1.8 million soul coins.
Of course, if there are Apocalypse Paradise contractors assigned to Su Xiao's team who are willing to face subsequent dangers and don't want to quit the team to avoid risks.
This is really great. In the final round of "Dawn Ruins," a high-level cannon fodder... cough~, a reliable consumable teammate might exert more value than 300,000 soul coins.
Thinking of this, Su Xiao's eyes became a bit kinder when he passed by the Apocalypse Paradise contractors, which made the Apocalypse Paradise group who were originally discussing suddenly quiet. They didn't know why, but they suddenly felt creepy.
Walking into the door hole with the Apocalypse Paradise brand, after walking for about ten meters, a door with the Extinguishing Law-type mark appeared. Pressing one hand on the door to complete the authentication, he walked into it.
This is a rest point of over a hundred square meters, with bedrooms, restaurants, bathrooms, etc., and a self-service small bar. After he sat down, Amu took out the food cooked by Xia from the team storage space. Xiang Bubu Wang, who had been hungry for a long time, started eating. It wasn't that it was particularly greedy, but if it ate slowly, there might be nothing to eat.
It has to be said that with Amu, the eating speed and appetite of Su Xiao's team have improved. Even Beni, who is usually elegant, will turn into a dry-rice cat. As the saying goes, if you are not active in dry rice, Amu might even eat the plate.
It's interesting to say that Xia's restaurant, before Amu went there, the tableware was luxury-level. In Xia's words, beautiful tableware is also part of the dining experience. But after Su Xiao often led Amu to visit, the tableware in Xia's restaurant gradually became simple, changing from custom-made to wholesale.
After eating and drinking, Su Xiao sat in the living room meditating, with the Severing Dragon Flash placed flat on his legs. After completing his daily meditation, he opened the equipment list and activated the characteristics of 【Life Source Monarch】.
【Life Source Monarch】
Origin: Eternal Light World, Great Lord's Private Residence, Fourth Forging Workshop.
Quality: Eternal Level.
Category: Ring.
Durability: 150/500 points.
Warning: The durability of nourishing equipment cannot be repaired.
Equipment Requirement: Real Physique 800 points.
Equipment Effect 1: Life Hunting (Nourishing, Passive): After killing a strong enemy, this equipment can absorb the "Life Source" of the strong enemy, thereby storing, filtering, and transforming. After absorbing enough Life Source, it will form a "Life Source Essence."
Prompt: Each "Life Source Essence" absorbed will permanently increase health by 20,000 points.
Life Source Essence absorbed: 4/5.
Life Source condensed: 1.
Equipment Effect 2: Monarch (Core, Passive): After successfully absorbing 5 "Life Source Essences," this equipment will transform toward "Form 2."
Prompt: This equipment has a total of three stages. Stage 1: Nourishing equipment, Stage 2: Slaughter-type equipment, Stage 3: Devouring-type equipment.
Prompt: Because this equipment has absorbed an overly powerful Life Source, the current Stage 2 will have two branch choices, namely "Slaughter Characteristic" and "Extreme Characteristic."
Prompt: Success rate of choosing "Slaughter Characteristic" to complete form transformation: 16.75%.
Prompt: Success rate of choosing "Extreme Characteristic" to complete form transformation: 98.8%.
Rating: 6000 points (Eternal level equipment rating is 3000~6000 points).
Introduction: Bloom to the extreme.
Because the Life Source of the Abyss Guard Chief was overly huge, the characteristics of the Eternal-level nourishing equipment 【Life Source Monarch】 changed.
Among the two characteristic branches, the "Slaughter" characteristic is obviously stronger. If it works, it can become a big help in the future. The problem is, the 1.675% success rate is too outrageous.
Trying to take out the "Life Source Essence," the "Life Source Essence" appeared in his hand. His small amount of source life force merged into it, which made the "Life Source Essence" gradually dissolve, first merging into his palm, and then flowing to all parts of his body.
Flowing, nourishing, thriving, the feeling of improving his own health upper limit is very good. A few hours later, when Su Xiao opened his eyes, he felt relaxed all over. The fatigue caused by the erosion of Abyss power before disappeared. He checked his own attributes:
Health; 100% (approximately 5.61 million points).
Mana; 204,106 points.
Strength: 800 points.
Agility: 800 points.
Physique: 800 points.
Intelligence: 800 points.
Soul Strength: 1500.
Abyss Resistance: 96.
Charm: -30 points.
Charm attribute can be said to be singing all the way. Fortunately, he obtained the 【Exemption Badge (★★★★★★)】 before, so that before the charm reaches -100 points, there will be no negative effects. Well, there is still a 70-point buffer zone, very stable.
Su Xiao unequipped 【Life Source Monarch】, used 【Fate Dominator】 to reach the peak of his "Luck ECG," and tried to transform 【Life Source Monarch】 toward the "Extreme" direction, but in the next second.
Peng!
【Life Source Monarch】 suddenly burst. Su Xiao's face sank. Seeing this scene, Baha on the side spoke:
"Boss, this equipment advances toward the slaughter branch, the success rate is 16.75%, failure is very normal."
It can be said that Baha's emotional intelligence is as high as ever.
"Wang!"
"Meow~"
"Moo."
"..."
Su Xiao was silent for a moment, letting Amu clean up the fragments of 【Life Source Monarch】 so as not to look at them. As for whether he chose "Slaughter" or "Extreme," the answer is self-evident, of course it is "Extreme." But thinking about it, it is normal for a 9.88% success rate to fail.
Closing the personal data list, Su Xiao took out an item, which is the 【Supreme Life Source Quality, Unique】 obtained by killing the Scarlet Lord.
"Supreme Life Source Quality, Unique: The only source quality in the entire star world, the true rank is between 'Supreme Source Quality' and 'Highest Source Quality'. Because of its unique characteristics, it is judged as 'Supreme Source Quality', and can only be obtained by killing the current possessor."
"Supreme Life Source Quality, Absorption Prerequisite: Real Strength 800 points (achieved), Real Physique 800 points (achieved), Willpower 500 points (achieved), Health Upper Limit 5.5 million points (achieved)."
"Supreme Life Source Quality, Unique (Buff Effect): Permanently increase 2 million health and 2 million health upper limit."
"Supreme Life Source Quality, Unique, Cost 1 (Causality Equivalence): While possessing 'Supreme Life Source Quality', your luck -3500."
"Supreme Life Source Quality, Unique, Cost 2 (Plunder): You need to choose a body attribute to be permanently deducted by 50%. You can only choose one of the seven important body attributes: Strength, Agility, Physique, Intelligence, Charm, Willpower, Soul Strength, to deduct."
"Supreme Life Source Quality, Unique, Cost 3 (Death Endowment): You immediately 'permanently die'." ===== CHAPTER 3975 =====
"Supreme Life Essence · Unique · Cost 3 (Gift of Death): You immediately suffer 'permanent death'."
End of Chapter
