Chapter 675
Su Xiao sits cross-legged on the bed, putting all items into the storage space; these items will be sold at the trading market in a while.
Soul Crystals (Medium) appear one by one in Su Xiao's hand, totaling 72.
404,500 Paradise Coins and 72 Soul Crystals (Medium); it's time to upgrade Sword Master.
【Upgrading Sword Master lv. 23 (Passive) requires consuming 50,000 Paradise Coins + Soul Crystal (Medium) x10. Yes/No to upgrade.】
"Practice upgrade 7 levels!"
As soon as Su Xiao finishes speaking, almost all the Soul Crystals (Medium) in his hand shatter, leaving only 2.
Paradise Coins are consumed rapidly, stopping only after 350,000 are deducted. Su Xiao still has 54,500 Paradise Coins left; his assets have returned from six figures to five figures in an instant.
The Soul Crystal fragments form a brilliant silver light chain, shooting straight into Su Xiao's brain.
A roar sounds in his brain, and Su Xiao's vision goes pitch black, but a smile appears on the corners of his mouth. At the same time, the higher the level of Sword Master being upgraded, the more intense the vision that appears. He had a similar situation once when he upgraded Sword Master by 5 levels in a row.
In the darkness, those Soul Crystal fragments form seven human figures, standing quietly in the dark.
With a "clatter," one figure formed by Soul Crystal fragments shatters, forming a long sword that shoots straight at Su Xiao.
If it were an ordinary person, they would subconsciously retreat or dodge when a sword flew toward them, but Su Xiao advances instead of retreating, controlling his consciousness to meet it.
His brain roars again, and insights about sword techniques appear in his memory, instantly becoming his body's instinct.
Just as Su Xiao's consciousness regains clarity, another long sword formed by Soul Crystal fragments stabs over.
Repeating the cycle, he doesn't know how much time has passed, but Su Xiao's eyes become brighter and brighter, the light in his pupils becoming sharper.
"Come again."
Su Xiao looks forward and suddenly discovers that there is nothing left in front of him; a sense of reluctance wells up in his heart.
The darkness recedes, and when Su Xiao opens his eyes, he is already standing in his exclusive room, with Zhan Long Shan in his hand, though he doesn't know when he grabbed it.
With Su Xiao as the center, the surrounding few meters are full of "particles" the size of a pinky fingernail; these "particles" are of different colors, with neat cross-sections.
"Woof~"
Hearing Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's trembling bark, Su Xiao turns his head to look.
At this moment, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang is wearing a yellow hard hat, holding half a wooden tabletop in its mouth, hiding in the corner of the wall, shivering behind the half tabletop.
Just a moment ago, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was preparing to take a nap, but as soon as it closed its eyes, it was kicked away by someone. Then it saw a terrifying scene: its master, with eyes closed, slowly drew the long sword from his waist, the blade rubbing against the scabbard and making a pleasant, light ringing sound.
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang swears it has never heard such a pleasant sound, but in the next moment, it was almost scared to the point of peeing.
Slashes, dense slashes; everything within a few meters of Su Xiao was slashed to pieces.
"What are you hiding there for?"
Su Xiao dances a sword flower with Zhan Long Shan in his hand; he is more familiar with the weapon in his hand, as if it were an extension of his arm. He can feel the subtle flow of air through the blade; this is a feeling that has never appeared before.
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang runs toward Su Xiao, barking a few times at the furniture wreckage nearby.
"This was an accident."
Su Xiao checks the reincarnation paradise's notification record; sure enough, there is a large amount of information about the Sword Master upgrade.
【Sword Master has been upgraded to lv. 24.】
【Sword Master has been upgraded to lv. 25.】
【Sword Master has been upgraded to lv. 26.】
……
【Sword Master has been upgraded to lv. 30!】
【Sword Master has been upgraded to lv. 30; lv. 30 additional ability has been unlocked.】
Seeing this hint, Su Xiao frowns; he is a bit worried that reaching lv. 30 in Sword Master is the end. If it's true, that would be a nightmare for him.
Not checking the additional ability for now, Su Xiao tries to upgrade Sword Master lv. 30.
【Upgrading Sword Master lv. 30 requires: Soul Crystal (Large) x1, 100,000 Paradise Coins.】
While Su Xiao exhales in relief, he is inevitably speechless. He only obtained one Soul Crystal (Large) in the gold treasure chest, which shows how rare this thing is, and now every level of Sword Master requires one.
Not only that, the consumption of 100,000 Paradise Coins per level is enough to make Su Xiao "bankrupt."
But the fact that Sword Master hasn't reached its end is undoubtedly good news; nothing is more distressing than reaching the end of a core ability.
Every level of Sword Master is a small improvement, and every ten levels is a big improvement. Su Xiao immediately checks the data for Sword Master.
【Sword Master: lv. 30 (Passive)】
Skill Effect: Increases sword-type weapon attack power by 134%, sword technique skills significantly improved.
Rhythm of All Things (Top Tier): This ability cannot be reinforced in the Reincarnation Paradise; it can only be comprehended by the hunter themselves. (Upgraded from High Tier to Top Tier)
Sword Ray: Can perform mid-range attacks; sharpness corresponds to sword technique level, no usage interval.
Blade of the Soul: Through accumulated sword technique practice, your soul can no longer be shaken by external objects.
Effect: Immune to mental-type control effects!
……
Although Su Xiao had anticipated that the additional ability of Sword Master lv. 30 would be strong, he didn't expect it to be this powerful.
However, this is consistent with Su Xiao's previous deduction about sword techniques; he previously believed that sword techniques were an improvement of body, mind, and skill.
"Body (Rhythm of All Things · Top Tier)" and "Skill (Sword Ray)" have both been improved, and now it has reached the level of improving "Mind (Blade of the Soul)."
As for the so-called "immune to mental-type control effects," such as the illusions in the Naruto world or the control of some mental-type mages, they are all ineffective against him.
This makes Su Xiao look forward to what ability will appear if he can upgrade Sword Master to lv. 40.
Undoubtedly, that ability will be extremely powerful, perhaps allowing sword techniques to undergo some kind of qualitative change, such as slashing through space? Or perhaps an even stronger ability?
After upgrading Sword Master, Su Xiao looks at Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and transfers 5,000 Paradise Coins as pocket money.
"Buy a batch of new furniture," Su Xiao adds immediately after seeing the strangely shaped sofa (dog house): "And the same style as the original."
Getting 5,000 Paradise Coins in pocket money, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang runs out to play, its furry tail wagging vigorously.
Spending 1 Paradise Coin to clean up the broken furniture in the room, Su Xiao leaves the exclusive room and heads straight to the trading market; he needs to deal with those pieces of equipment.
Ten minutes later, in the trading market.
"Green quality, 30-rating armor, don't bother me if you're not sincere."
"Your price is too expensive, are you ripping me off?"
"Buy it if you want, get lost if you don't!"
The trading market is bustling with people, and contractors dressed in various ways shuttle between stalls, stopping from time to time to haggle with the stall owners.
Su Xiao passes through the crowd and arrives at the stall he often uses. This time, the quantity of items he wants to sell is exaggeratedly large, which will definitely attract many contractors to watch.
However, Su Xiao very much hopes that contractors will come to watch; most of the items he is selling are not of high quality.
But "not high quality" is only relative to Su Xiao. One must know that green and blue quality equipment are the core equipment for first-tier contractors, while purple quality equipment is generally held by second-tier contractors. This can be known from the equipment information revealed by those contractors before they prepared to cooperate to kill the Cyclops in the Hunter world.
Paying Paradise Coins to rent the right to use the stall, Su Xiao begins to organize the large amount of equipment.
