Chapter 212: Pale Bone Pearl, an Excellent Medium for Bone Magic

【Third Tier Pale Bone Pearl】

Supernatural Grade: Third Tier

Effect: Pale Bone Pearl contains rich bone element; after consumption, it can greatly increase bone hardness and bone element affinity, and there is a high probability of obtaining the passive skill Wither.

Meanwhile, Pale Bone Pearl is an excellent medium for bone magic; using it as a medium for casting bone magic allows bone magic to exert stronger effects.

But note: if used by non-undead creatures, the effect is greatly reduced, and there is a relatively high chance of being affected by the bone element within, turning into an undead creature.

……

"Not bad, not bad, this is a strengthened version of Withered Bone Essence!"

Looking at the content displayed on the appraisal result, Su Hao slightly raised his eyebrows and nodded in satisfaction.

The effect of Pale Bone Pearl is roughly the same as that of Withered Bone Essence, but the overall effect is significantly stronger.

First, after consuming Pale Bone Pearl, the increase in bone hardness and bone element affinity is somewhat higher than that of Withered Bone Essence.

Moreover, after consuming Pale Bone Pearl, the chance of obtaining the Wither skill becomes greater.

Pale Bone Pearl is also an excellent medium for casting bone magic; using it as a casting medium allows the bone magic cast to exert greater effects.

That is to say, when summoning skeleton warriors, the skeleton warriors summoned using Pale Bone Pearl may be somewhat stronger.

More importantly, these Pale Bone Pearls can all be obtained by casting Pale Bone Claw to summon four white bone arms, then using Item Refining Technique.

Moreover, only needing to cast Pale Bone Claw once, after refining the four arms, one can obtain as many as thirty-two Pale Bone Pearls.

This amounts to merely consuming some renewable mental power to get thirty-two Pale Bone Pearls for free.

Needless to say, these thirty-two Pale Bone Pearls can at least summon thirty-two skeleton warriors, with a supernatural grade of at least second tier, possibly higher.

Su Hao did not rush to use Pale Bone Pearl as a casting medium to summon skeleton warriors.

Instead, he pried open his own jaw and forcibly stuffed a Pale Bone Pearl the size of an infant's head into it.

Although absorbing it via mental power yields the same result, it's unclear whether this is due to the influence of the Crimson Bone Demon, a supernatural sequence.

Su Hao subconsciously chose to break his own jaw and forcibly stuff the Pale Bone Pearl in.

The next moment.

A surge of energy rich in bone element burst forth from the Pale Bone Pearl, filling every corner of Su Hao's body, and was finally completely absorbed by his full-body black bones.

After absorbing the energy from this Pale Bone Pearl, Su Hao clearly felt that the strength of his entire skeleton had increased significantly.

Before this, although Su Hao's physique and mental power were already stronger than most third-tier supernatural beings.

However, the hardness of his bones was only slightly higher than that of a third-tier bone dragon's bones.

Know that for the Crimson Bone Demon supernatural sequence, the core parts are bones, blood, and soul.

Within Su Hao's full-body black bones, there is also a special conduit used to store essence blood.

Theoretically, as long as Su Hao's bones are sufficiently strong, his life will not face any threat.

Even without external flesh and blood, relying solely on his fully hardened skeleton, he can unleash his full combat power.

Now, after consuming just one Pale Bone Pearl, he clearly felt the increase in bone hardness. According to Su Hao's estimate, as long as the quantity of Pale Bone Pearls is sufficient, his bone hardness could soon reach fourth tier! At that point, if combined with certain bone-related skills, he might even be able to crush a fourth-tier supernatural weapon with his bare hands?

Just as Su Hao was lamenting the change in his bones, after his entire skeleton absorbed all the energy from the Pale Bone Pearl, a special force flowed along the bones into the depths of his mind, where it transformed into a pale skill rune in his soul.

In appearance, this skill rune looks like a person lying on the ground, completely weak and powerless.

"A high probability is great; just one pellet gave me the skill."

For this result, Su Hao did not feel particularly surprised, after all, a high probability of acquisition is no joke.

Afterwards, Su Hao slightly moved his thought and opened the information panel of this skill rune.

【Wither】

Proficiency: Entry-level Supernatural Grade: Second Tier

Effect: After any attack hits the opponent, there is a certain chance to inflict the Withered state on the opponent.

All units that fall into the Withered state have their strength and speed slightly reduced; the duration depends on the difference in mental power between both sides and the target's resistance to abnormal states.

……

"Reducing strength and speed, this is actually a not-bad passive skill."

Su Hao glanced at it and then closed the skill's details page.

To be frank, Wither is indeed a decent skill, and it's also a passive skill; as long as any attack hits the opponent, there is a chance to trigger the Wither effect, greatly damaging the opponent's strength and speed.

For others, possessing this skill can greatly boost their combat power.

Especially for those supernatural beings who are fast but have weak attack power, the Wither skill is particularly powerful, enabling their combat to become more diverse.

However, for Su Hao, the effect of this skill is rather ordinary.

This is not to say that Su Hao's skills are all violent, so control-type skills like Wither are useless.

It's just that Su Hao's skills are too strong, making the effect of Wither seem somewhat lacking.

Enemies entering the Withered state merely have their strength and speed slightly reduced, and moreover it cannot stack, which is why Su Hao finds it somewhat unappealing.

However, this skill is actually a decent material for synthesis.

If in the future we can also obtain some supernatural items that reduce enemy speed and strength, synthesizing them with this will definitely make the Wither effect stronger.

Moreover, if consuming Black Dragon Essence Bone could grant the Dragon Might skill, fusing Dragon Might with Wither might also be a good choice.

Perhaps by then, the aura emanating from Su Hao himself could greatly reduce the enemy's combat power.

However, before obtaining the dragon clan's talent, Su Hao had no intention of using Black Dragon Essence Bone.

Thereafter, Su Hao stopped thinking about it and picked up another Pale Bone Pearl from the ground.

Regarding the effects after consuming Pale Bone Pearl, Su Hao already knows them; now he wants to see another effect of the Pale Bone Pearl.

That is, as a medium for casting bone magic, what effects it can exert.

According to Su Hao's past experience, for third-tier supernatural bones, after using them to summon skeleton warriors, one should be able to summon a third-tier skeleton warrior.
