Chapter 3990

Su Xiao walked into the God Emperor Adventure Group headquarters and found that the place had a rather magnificent feel. It could be seen that the God Emperor Adventure Group had developed quite well and already had a great reputation among the eighth tier. It was said they were going to challenge the ninth-tier adventure group status.

In the Apocalypse Paradise, there were many ninth-tier adventure groups; even at the Supreme Tier, and even the highest Supreme Tier, there were adventure groups. However, in the Reincarnation Paradise, after the eighth tier, the number of adventure groups decreased sharply. For the ninth tier, there were only those few well-known adventure groups. As for the Supreme Tier, there were no large adventure groups yet.

The reason for this was that large adventure groups generally did not like to go to mission worlds not notarized by their own paradise. Whether it was the large adventure groups of the Reincarnation Paradise or those of the Apocalypse Paradise, it was the same.

In their respective native worlds, it was clearly safer for the Apocalypse Paradise side. There, lone wolves feared large adventure groups; after all, they had strength in numbers.

Conversely, the large adventure groups in the Reincarnation Paradise were exceptionally solemn when encountering lone wolves from their own side, because you could never be sure what kind of monster this guy who looked like a human actually was. If you encountered a partner of the "Ruthless Brother," such as the healing type "Xier," that would be a disaster.

On the surface, she looked like a socially anxious, quiet, bespectacled sweet girl, but when she revealed her true colors, inflating people until they burst with healing energy or proliferating them into a wailing ball of flesh, one would know what kind of devil she was inside.

Just as he walked into the God Emperor Adventure Group headquarters, Su Xiao saw an old man with a goatee walking toward him. When the other party saw Su Xiao, he was stunned, as if he couldn't quite believe it, and his eyes were clearly widened.

"Mr. Bai Ye?"

The old goat's tone still held some disbelief.

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak, only puzzled by the old goat's attitude. Both sides could be considered acquaintances; he didn't know why he was like this today. Bahar, on his shoulder, asked:

"What's the matter, Old Goat? You see my boss like you've seen a ghost."

Bahar's words made the old goat even more surprised. He habitually touched his goatee and said, "Our leader is in the conference room upstairs. Let's go there and talk."

A few minutes later, Su Xiao and God Emperor sat opposite each other across a tea table. God Emperor placed a cup of tea in front of Su Xiao and said:

"Mr. Bai Ye, you are a celebrity now."

"Hmm?"

Su Xiao was even more confused in his heart. He hadn't done anything too famous.

"You won the Paradise Contest, giving the Reincarnation Paradise a 'Potential Transcendence Device.' According to the announcement, that is one of the highest-tier facilities that can break through the 800-point physical attribute limit to reach the 900-point limit. Although the usage permission is ridiculously high, at least there is hope."

Hearing God Emperor's words, Su Xiao knew what was going on. As for the announcement, of course, he wouldn't receive such announcements. Not to mention that he had already used the "Potential Transcendence Device," he was one of the parties involved, and he was the first to receive the relevant prompts.

"Because this Paradise Contest was won, the Reincarnation Paradise gave all contractors a reward. As long as you go to the Attribute Upgrade Hall and register your brand, you can get 3 free attribute points. It is said that this applies from the first tier to the ninth tier..."

Through God Emperor's narration, Su Xiao knew the general situation. In the relevant announcement, it didn't mention "Hunter · Bai Ye" or anything similar, but announced that "Some Qiyuezhe No. 13013" won this Paradise Contest. As for who "Some Qiyuezhe No. 13013" was, most low-to-mid-tier contractors didn't know, but high-tier contractors generally all knew.

"Mr. Bai Ye, what brings you here this time?"

God Emperor held a small teacup and took a light sip of green tea.

"..."

Su Xiao took out a "Team Permission Card." Seeing this thing, God Emperor's eyes lit up.

God Emperor of course knew of the existence of the "Team Permission Card," and that this thing was converted from team skill points obtained after the adventure group skill levels were all maxed out.

But adventure groups had different levels, from E-rank to SSS-rank, and the "Team Permission Card" converted from an E-rank adventure group was, of course, worlds apart from one converted from an SSS-rank adventure group. Simply put, "Team Permission Cards" had four grades: ordinary ones were white, better ones were purple, and top-tier ones were gold.

The "Team Permission Card" Su Xiao took out at this moment was gold. The problem was, this gold was so rich it had become dark gold.

God Emperor picked up the "Team Permission Card" on the table. As an adventure group leader, he could use this thing. He tried to use it on the ordinary skills of the God Emperor Adventure Group, and the result was a prompt: one "Team Permission Card" could increase the level of an ordinary adventure group skill by 3 levels.

The God Emperor Adventure Group could grow to its current level because it naturally had a "Rare · Team Passive Skill." He tried to use this "Team Permission Card." Generally speaking, their adventure group needed 5 team skill points to increase a "Rare · Team Passive" by 1 level. Because of this, until now, the adventure group's rare passive had only reached Lv. 42.

"Team Skill 3: Copper Heart Iron Gall (Rare · Team Passive, Lv. 42): All members' HP +1200 points, physical defense +10 points, recover 1 HP per second, and slow recovery of physical damage. After entering combat state, recovery effect increases by 300%."

A quite good team skill. If the level were increased, the survival ability of the members would definitely increase by a notch. And showing off such a team skill was undoubtedly a killer move to attract potential newcomers. Imagine if second or third-tier contractors had this bonus, they would go straight from being unremarkable passersby to becoming the main combat force of a temporary squad.

The only difficulty was that this team skill was too hard to level up. The God Emperor Adventure Group had accumulated for so long and only reached Lv. 42.

If God Emperor took these 40 "Team Permission Cards," the team skill would immediately soar to Lv. 82. The strength of that, just thinking about it, made God Emperor and Old Goat feel hot-headed.

Normally, with the financial resources of the God Emperor Adventure Group, they couldn't afford these 40 "Team Permission Cards." The problem was, the Ram Chamber of Commerce was a force under the God Emperor Adventure Group.

Half an hour later, Su Xiao walked out of the main entrance of the God Emperor Adventure Group. The wool hadn't been raised for so long in vain; he obtained a total of 260,000 soul coins and 35 mid-to-low-tier permission-type items.

For Su Xiao, the ways to obtain such items were very few. The reason was that when he was in the mid-to-low tiers, he had already killed his way to the "Team Slayer" title, so naturally, he couldn't trigger such missions. Previously, he had entrusted the God Emperor Adventure Group to collect such items in order to sell them to the Reincarnation Paradise to obtain "Contribution Badges."

"Contribution Badge: You can activate permanent usage permissions for special facilities within the Reincarnation Paradise by submitting 5 'Contribution Badges,' including unique paradise special facilities such as the 'Meditation Mystical Realm,' 'Death Tower,' and 'Trial Heart Mirror.'"

The "Land of All Living Things" was of great help to Su Xiao. Of course, the more similar special facilities, the better. Unfortunately, he couldn't get his wish this time because he discovered that submitting permission items through the "Supreme Promotion Mission" was also exceptionally cost-effective, almost the same as submitting Space-Time Power.

【You have completed this submission of permission items.】

【You have obtained 12 "Supreme Potential Points."】

The harvest was quite good; even 1 "Supreme Potential Point" was precious. When Su Xiao returned to his exclusive room, he saw Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang sitting angrily in front of the coffee table, its head resting on the sofa armrest. Looking at its appearance, it had been beaten by Benny again. Looking at Benny's hairstyle, one could only say that every beating Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang received was well-deserved.

Coming to the empty room where the "Stele of Awakening" was stored, Su Xiao checked his existing Law Breaker skill points. There were still 52 points; originally there were 80, but in the last world, within a few days, he had activated the Origin Container several times in succession to raise the Blue Shadow King to the max level. As a price, this "Origin Container," which was already an antique from the previous era, began to show internal energy leakage. It seemed that the energy sealing formula had a problem, leading to the loss of the stored "Law Breaker Skill Points." This must be figured out; he would ask Marvin Waltz later. But before that, he was weighing whether to try to master a "Supreme-Tier · Law Breaker Passive." With his current life force, he shouldn't die suddenly because of this.

Su Xiao pressed his hand on the Stele of Awakening. The next moment, a brilliant blue light flared on the Stele of Awakening. Being in his own exclusive room, of course, he wasn't afraid of any changes. Instead, he kept his hand pressed on the Stele of Awakening, waiting for the changes to end. He could feel that his core ability, "Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying," seemed to have changed.

After a while, the blue light on the Stele of Awakening converged, and void characters appeared on it. Almost at the same time, Su Xiao received a prompt from the Reincarnation Paradise.

【Prompt: The treasure of the Law Breaker faction, the Stele of Awakening, has sensed that you already possess a small amount of Supreme Power and are in the stage of ascending to the Supreme Tier. Its internal formula has been activated. You will face a major choice and need to choose carefully.】

【Your core ability, Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying, will be truly activated. You need to choose its development path. Once the choice is completed, it cannot be changed in any way!】

Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao was confused in his heart. Looking at this meaning, could it be that the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability he had mastered before was just a prototype? This core ability, which could burn the enemy's body energy and cause high damage, was already strong enough.

But looking at this situation, the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability was in a semi-sealed state before. The reason was: a Law Breaker who hadn't stepped toward the Supreme Tier had no possibility of mastering the complete form of this ability. It belonged to the category where, no matter how heaven-defying one's physique was, before proceeding to the step of ascending to the Supreme Tier, daring to completely awaken Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying would mean certain death.

【You can choose one from the following options as the development path for your Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying.】

1. Devour (Requires Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy intensity to reach 150 points).

2. Controller (Requires Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy intensity to reach 180 points).

3. Endless (Requires Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy intensity to reach 200 points).

Current Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy intensity: 320 points.

【Prompt: You need to make a choice within 5 minutes, otherwise it will be considered as giving up this Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying awakening. If you miss this opportunity, your Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability will not be able to awaken.】

The third option, "Endless," was of course the best. The problem was that the font of this option was bright red. This bright red gave a strong sense of danger, as if after choosing it, something not very good would happen. Of course, it wasn't the effect of the upgrade; this was the path where the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability had the greatest increase and was the most perfect. The danger lay in the experience during the upgrade.

Su Xiao summoned Amu and asked it to bring the top-tier life fluid extraction injection from the alchemy laboratory. A moment later, he gave the empty injection gun to Amu and stepped onto the bed in the room. As for why there was a bed here, don't ask; every item in this room was necessary.

Choosing to completely awaken the core ability of Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying, the next second, Su Xiao felt his heart jump violently. The Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy in his whole body gradually became irritable, accompanied by blood surging in his blood vessels. A few breaths later, his vision went black, and he fell into a dream.

Amu was not surprised by this, but still habitually tried to check its master's breathing. Upon checking, Amu's bull eyes almost popped out.

"Moo!!"

Amu roared. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Bahar, and Benny rushed over quickly. The four of them performed emergency rescue with various instruments before Su Xiao regained his breathing. That's right, just a moment ago, Su Xiao's breathing had stopped for more than ten seconds.

With his powerful life force, it was like this; one could see how dangerous it was to completely awaken Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying. It was no wonder the Law Breaker faction only allowed this ability to be awakened after the Supreme Tier promotion.

Darkness, boundless darkness. Su Xiao felt himself falling in the darkness. This time there was nothing, only endless darkness. This reminded him that someone who had returned from the dead once said that there was nothing after death, only endless darkness. Because of this, people instinctively feared death so much.

Suddenly, the surrounding darkness was dispelled by blue light. These blue lights were distributed around like electric arcs. Su Xiao suddenly opened his eyes and then saw a big dog head looking at him eagerly.

Pushing away Xiang Bubu's dog head, Su Xiao sat up and tore off the various vital sign monitoring equipment on his chest. He was fine now except for being a bit weak. As for the sudden stop in breathing when he fell into a dream, that wasn't fake death; it was the instinctive protective reaction of his organs under the stimulation of the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability. No harm done.

Feeling the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy in his body, hmm, it seemed there was no change.

【Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying: Lv. 95 (Active/Passive Skill)】

Usage conditions: After activating the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability...

Active effect: Each melee attack will burn 6260 points of the enemy's mana...

Defensive form: Proud Song (Active)...

Combat form: None.

Except for the disappearance of the combat form "Extremist (Passive)," there was no change. This made Su Xiao feel puzzled. He felt the subtle changes in the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy, and there was no change. He tried to consult the Reincarnation Paradise, and the result was this prompt.

【Prompt: Your Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying skill is the "Core Skill" with the highest level cap currently notarized.】

Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao carefully perceived the upgrade of Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying again. Previously, after the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability reached Lv. 95, this ability gave him the feeling that it would be difficult to upgrade each subsequent level, but each level increased was a major improvement.

But now, this characteristic feeling was gone, as if he could raise the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability to an incredibly inconceivable level, unlike other high-tier abilities where the level cap was Lv. 100, or higher at Lv. 105 or Lv. 110.

The level cap for Su Xiao's Sword Master ability was Lv. 110. This was only reached after he had raised the cap level several times. Otherwise, it would generally be Lv. 90 max or Lv. 95 max, depending on one's personal sword talent.

But feeling the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy at this moment, Su Xiao had the feeling that, let alone Lv. 110, that kind of endless cap made it difficult for him to sense it now. This was the true power of the "Endless" path.

Looking at the time, Su Xiao fell asleep. From the start of the Paradise Contest to returning to the Reincarnation Paradise, he hadn't had a good night's sleep. This time he slept until he woke up naturally, soothing his tense nerves.

I don't know how long it had been, Su Xiao opened his eyes and picked up Benny, who was lying on his face in a big "X" shape. Xiang Bubu at the foot of the bed was sleeping so soundly that drool was flowing out. Amu was sleeping on the carpet on the floor, snoring loudly. Bahar was squatting on the Stele of Awakening, sleeping quietly.

"Meow~"

Benny struggled a bit, burrowed into the quilt with her upper body, and continued to sleep.

Looking at the time, he had slept for more than ten hours. After washing up, Su Xiao felt refreshed to the point that he felt his whole person had come back to life. Coming to the Stele of Awakening, he pressed one hand on the Stele of Awakening and tried to upgrade the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability.

【Yes/No to upgrade Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying skill Lv. 95? Upgrading this ability requires consuming 1 Law Breaker skill point.】

Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao knew that the Reincarnation Paradise had further notarized the Stele of Awakening. For him, this was undoubtedly a good thing, greatly reducing the unknown risks contained in upgrading the ability.

He had 52 Law Breaker skill points and tried to add points to the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability. The result was that as he added them point by point, this skill seemed to accept everything. Until all 52 Law Breaker skill points were invested, and then, there was no reaction.

【Yes/No to perform this Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability upgrade? Due to the endless characteristic of your Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability, after each upgrade of this ability, the next upgrade must be 5 to 10 natural days later.】

This was undoubtedly a troublesome characteristic. No wonder adding Law Breaker skill points point by point didn't show an upgrade reaction; it turned out to be a problem caused by this characteristic. He chose to upgrade. The next second, he fell into a dream again. Thinking about it, the Law Breaker faction should rarely have the trouble of insomnia.

When Su Xiao woke up again, it was already three hours later. Just as he was about to get up, he felt severe pain all over his body.

【Yes/No to pay 15935 soul coins to recover current physical damage.】

Su Xiao chose to pay. Green recovery light particles appeared. As the recovery permission started, the hidden pain in his body disappeared. When everything was back to normal, he opened the skill list to check the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability, and the result was "Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying, Lv. 147"!

That's right, a level 147 ability. Su Xiao finally knew why the Reincarnation Paradise gave the prompt "This is the core skill with the highest level cap currently notarized." The cap of this skill level could no longer be compared with other abilities. Looking at this posture, Lv. 147 was just the beginning; there would be more shocking skill levels later.

【Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying: Lv. 147 (Active/Passive Skill)】

Usage conditions: After activating the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability, consume 6160 points of mana per minute (increased by 1560 points).

Active effect: Each melee attack will burn 8860 points of the enemy's mana and cause true damage equal to 1.8 times the burned mana (Base 11268 points + 400 true damage + Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan increase 50% + Blue Shadow King increase 30% + Swift Shadow increase 40% = 35486 points of true damage). The enemy will suffer intense pain after mana burning.

Defensive form: Proud Song (Active). Can generate crystals of any form to defend against enemy attacks. The crystal strength is directly proportional to the mana consumed. The single mana consumption cap is 19900 points. Crystal layer defense tier +22.

Combat form: None.

Su Xiao now had 210606 points of mana, which was already quite high. The problem was that after activating the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability for more than 30 minutes, the mana would be exhausted. Fortunately, he was a Sword Master. In a life-and-death battle with an enemy, 99% of the time it wouldn't be a protracted war. Even if the enemy wanted to, it would be difficult to do so. The style of a Sword Master was life or death in an instant.

And one slash burning 8860 points of mana, Su Xiao's 200,000 points of body energy was the boss template of the same tier. Plus, when fighting, strong enemies using abilities would also consume body energy. Maybe after just a few slashes, the big boss he was fighting wouldn't be able to release their ultimate move. The current Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability was the one that truly reflected the status of the core ability of the Law Breaker system.

Of course, as a core ability, if Sword Master reached the Lv. 110 cap, it would definitely be much stronger than the current Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying ability. Both had their own strengths. The exceptionally high cap level, even to the point of being unreasonable, was one of the strongest characteristics of Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying. More accurately, looking at the Void and Myriad Worlds, there was no second ability with such a high cap level.

In other systems, so far, the highest known skill level was Lv. 118. It was also because of the Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying's heaven-breaking cap level that the Second Era was called the Law Breaker Era. An ability system that dominated an era must have its particularly unsolvable and outrageous characteristics.

And it was still the case that the Law Breaker faction never had many members, yet it still dominated an era. This was actually the most outrageous part. Just like the current Third Era, the era of spellcasters, the Arcane Eternal Star was a huge force with hundreds of thousands of core members and millions of peripheral members. Because of this, their base camp needed a planet.

Drawing the Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan, Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy clung to it, and pale blue electric arcs surged. If there were enemies here, seeing these surging pale blue electric arcs, they would definitely feel terrified. One slash carried 35486 points of true damage, get to know it.

Looking at the email, Crystal Ji had already contacted the Void's Pharmacist Guild. There were indeed the potion formulas Su Xiao needed there, and there were more than a dozen types. They also sent a representative to discuss this transaction with Su Xiao. It was estimated that they would arrive in a few hours.

A hungry feeling struck. Just as he was about to take Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, Bahar, and Benny to eat a big meal, the Reincarnation Paradise prompt suddenly appeared.

【All material reception for this Paradise Contest has been completed.】

【In view of the Hunter's extremely excellent performance in this Paradise Contest, and the fact that this material reception is 12.8664% higher than the estimated material acquisition volume, a certain amount of revenue compensation will be given to the Hunter.】

【You have obtained Reincarnation Notarization Permission × 3 times.】

【You have obtained free usage permission for the Skill Upgrade Chamber (once).】

【You have obtained Flame Core (World-class · Item).】

【Because this Paradise Contest has officially ended, and our side is the winning side.】

【Judging...】

【Notarization completed. This Paradise Contest will be defaulted to winning a round of World Contest. The Honor Shop is about to refresh.】
