【Death Scythe】

Supernatural Grade: Fifth Tier

Introduction: forged by legendary dwarven craftsmen, infused with divine power by the Death God, this weapon was jointly crafted; only special people can use it normally.

It is extremely sturdy, difficult to destroy by external force.

And wielding the Death Scythe grants partial divine authority of the Death God. According to the wielder's will, it can enhance the strength of surrounding undead creatures or inflict special damage upon them.

Effect 1—Undead Commander: Undead creatures controlled by the wielder of the Death Scythe can inflict more damage on enemies and, when attacked, can reduce some damage.

Effect 2—Death Power: The Death Scythe contains the primal divine power of the Death God.

All undead creatures or other living beings struck by the Death Scythe will suffer special damage from the deathly divine power, making wounds hard to heal and injuring the soul.

Moreover, creatures slain by the Death Scythe have a certain chance to transform into undead beings under the control of the wielder.

Effect 3—Self‑adaptive Seal: The Death Scythe contains the primal divine power of the Death God; to prevent the wielder from being harmed by that power, the Death God placed a seal on it.

The Death Scythe will seal a portion of its power according to the wielder's ability, allowing the wielder to use it freely.

……

「Holy shit! This scythe is actually a Supernatural Fifth Tier item! 」

「Moreover, it contains primal divine power; the Death God is being damn generous. 」

After viewing the appraisal results, Su Hao involuntarily widened his eyes, showing an expression of disbelief.

Originally, Su Hao thought that if this scythe could reach Supernatural Fourth Tier, he would be satisfied.

But who could have imagined that the Death God's move would yield a Supernatural Fifth Tier item.

Most importantly, this Supernatural Fifth Tier Death Scythe contains the Death God's divine power.

Back then, Suolu, after being influenced by the Scarlet Lord's divine power, turned into that ghastly appearance; Su Hao still remembers it vividly.

If one attacks with the Death Scythe, the damage inflicted will absolutely be more terrifying and unstoppable than weapons of the same tier.

And the divine power contained within the Death Scythe is still the primal divine power of the Death God, which must be even greater than ordinary divine power.

Fortunately, the Death God was considerate and placed a seal on the Death Scythe.

It will seal a portion of the Death Scythe's power according to the wielder's strength.

Otherwise, a Supernatural Fifth Tier Death Scythe imbued with the Death God's primal divine power would leave Su Hao without the courage to even approach it, let alone use it.

Divine power is not something to joke about.

Not to mention Su Hao is only Supernatural Second Tier; even a Supernatural Fifth Rank, if infected by divine power, could very well die instantly.

In short, the Death Scythe is an exceptionally fine weapon.

Even if Su Hao's strength far exceeds his tier, this Death Scythe is sufficient for him to use up to Supernatural Fourth Tier.

As for what happens after Supernatural Fourth Tier, we'll talk about it after reaching that tier.

Anyway, with the Synthesis Heart in hand, as long as Su Hao wishes, his possessions have infinite growth potential. If his Supernatural Grade rises to Fourth or Fifth Tier and the Death Scythe's power becomes insufficient, he can simply use suitable materials and synthesize them once or twice to solve the problem.

Finally, Su Hao took the Death Scythe, walked toward the undead creatures in the black mist, conducted an experiment, and nodded in satisfaction.

Although the Death Scythe self‑seals part of its power, its strength still exceeds Su Hao's expectations, making it the most powerful weapon he possesses.

Especially its effect of directly attacking the soul, which is practically the bane of undead creatures.

Previously, to kill an undead creature, Su Hao had to shatter the soul fire in its core.

Now, with the Death Scythe, killing undead creatures has become much easier.

A casual swing of the scythe, no matter where it hits an undead creature, can injure its soul fire.

Moreover, the Death Scythe contains the Death God's divine power; basically, one swing can extinguish an undead creature's soul fire, causing it to collapse lifelessly.

Even a Supernatural Third Tier Headless Knight, if struck by the scythe anywhere on its body, will have the soul fire on its neck instantly extinguished, just like other undead, losing all vitality.

According to Su Hao's estimate, if he could obtain this Death Scythe earlier.

The Supernatural Fourth Tier Abomination, Su Hao wouldn't need to let the Hellfire Pumpkin Head self‑destruct.

Relying solely on his strong regenerative ability and this Death Scythe, he might be able to jump two tiers and slay the Supernatural Fourth Tier Abomination head‑on.

「The Death God truly lives up to being a deity; this is incredibly generous. 」

Su Hao's fingers lightly stroked the Death Scythe twice, satisfied, he stored it in his Storage Bag.

Since the Death God shows such sincerity, plus his own rebirth likely has some connection, Su Hao immediately decided that upon returning, he would speed up construction of the Death Tombstone building.

He doesn't have the habit of taking others' benefits and then doing nothing.

「Now we only need a material of Second Tier or higher to build the Death Tombstone structure. 」

Although the other main material for constructing the Death Tombstone building only requires Supernatural Grade Second Tier or above.

However, the Necrotic Source Crystal material reaches Supernatural Fifth Tier; using merely Supernatural Second Tier for the other material would be rather petty.

Obtaining Supernatural Fifth Tier material is relatively difficult for Su Hao; he doesn't have much confidence.

However, Su Hao is quite confident about acquiring Supernatural Fourth Tier material.

Let alone anything else, even just using the Synthesis Heart a few more times can synthesize Supernatural‑world materials.

If during this process the proficiency of the Synthesis Heart improves, even Supernatural Fifth Tier material would pose no problem.

Besides, the corpse of an Abomination, after refinement, might yield a decent world material.

Although both options are good, they are not Su Hao's priority; not using Andrew would be utterly foolish.

Although Andrew presently has no combat power, he was once a Sixth‑Rank Necromancer and a faithful follower of the Death God; his insight remains.

For the other material needed to build the Death Tombstone, the best choice is naturally something related to the undead.
