Volume 3: The World's Strongest Chapter 30: Harvest, Passive Items
Qi Ji appeared like a flash, maintaining the posture of stabbing with the Undead Slash, and instantly appeared behind the Abyss Walker.
The next second, his feet went weak, he staggered forward a few steps, and then fell to the ground!
Under his right rib, there was a horrible crack in the titanium alloy armor, and inside the gap was a huge scar visible to the naked eye. At this moment, the wound was madly spewing blood.
With a clang, the wolf-eagle-like helmet fell to the ground.
Behind him, the Abyss Walker's blue turban fell off, revealing his messy gray hair.
The silent gale blew violently, making the Abyss Walker's white hair and torn cloak dance wildly.
The black aura quickly faded from his body, and at this moment, he seemed to have returned to the posture of a normal person.
He didn't look back.
Instead of a hoarse roar, a deep and charming voice sounded.
"I... lost."
“Very good…”
"Thank you for freeing me from the abyss."
"I wonder if Schiff is safe..."
"And she, I feel a little sorry..."
"Human... Finally, I hope you can know my name..."
The voice paused, then became slightly excited.
"I am Arthas, the one who conquers the abyss and walks in the abyss!"
Just as he finished his words, the next second, the Abyss Walker who called himself Arthas shattered into dust, and then the dust disintegrated into a large ball of mist, which quickly penetrated from behind the fallen Qi Ji.
"Brother, if you say a few more words, I might die."
Qi Ji, whose body had finally recovered, smiled bitterly and climbed up with his hands.
Just now he really felt that he was going to die in the next second, but fortunately Arthas gave him face and finally finished speaking and hung up.
A bloody misty prompt appeared before my eyes.
[Kill the target, take away 300 points of spirituality, and convert the excess spirituality into transcendence]
[Current Transcendence 635 , Spirituality 100/100]
Qi Ji looked surprised.
I didn't expect that the degree of transcendence I got was even higher than when I killed the wolf!
But it also makes sense, this powerful enemy named Arthas is obviously at a higher level of power than the wolf.
Moreover, the strength of this Arthas has obviously been greatly weakened.
That’s right, although Arthas’s strength and speed became stronger and stronger after being eroded by the black air, Qi Ji still felt that this was not his actual strength.
Because he completely lost his mind, which led to a lack of agility in his behavior patterns.
The more the black energy corrodes, the stronger the body becomes and the worse the combat awareness becomes.
However, the enhancement of the power of the abyss was not enough to kill Qi Ji instantly.
In the end, Qi Ji took advantage of the opportunity and killed him in one fell swoop.
Simple review completed.
Qi Ji turned around and came to the place where Arthas disappeared.
There, a blood-red crystal was floating quietly.
Qi Ji reached out and touched it without hesitation. He could even guess what skills this blood crystal would give him.
The fog text appeared.
[Wolf Swordsmanship: The Slayer of the Abyss is accompanied by a giant wolf. This sword and shield technique was created based on the fighting posture of his companion. Although the movements are simple, it is actually an extraordinary swordsmanship that can draw the power of the soul fire.]
The red crystal turned into a streak of light and flew into Qi Ji's brow.
At this moment, he transformed himself into the conqueror of the abyss.
At the beginning, he was a well-trained knight who traveled across the continent. At that time, he met his lifelong friend "Sif" - a gray wolf.
He danced with wolves and created sword skills that were unrivaled in the world.
With his strong will and unparalleled swordsmanship, he was appreciated by Gwyn, the Sun King, and became one of the Four Knights under Gwyn. He made great military achievements for the King of the Protoss and established a lifelong reputation.
But the fire gradually died down.
The abyss began to erode the world.
Cities fell one after another, and people were corrupted and turned into horrible monsters.
At this time, news came from the ancient magic kingdom about the invasion of the abyss.
He was given the task and embarked on a journey with his partner, the gray wolf Sif, to the country called Urasil to stop the erosion of the abyss.
Finally, he came before the Lord of the Abyss and fought side by side with Sif, but after trying his best, he could only severely injure the Lord of the Abyss, and then was defeated by him. His left arm was broken and his back was severely injured during the retreat.
What's more terrifying is that his sanity was constantly eroded by the abyss. Finally, when he struggled to escape to the entrance of the abyss, his willpower reached its limit.
At this time, Schiff was seriously injured and unable to move. In order to protect his comrades, he used his shield that could resist erosion as the core and set up a barrier to buy time for Schiff.
Without the shield, he, who had already been eroded by the abyss to the point of mental confusion, fell into complete chaos. He could only rely on instinct to fight his way out.
Finally came to this arena.
…
In a trance, Qi Ji experienced the life of Arthas from his debut to the present. After his consciousness returned to his body, he couldn't help but be impressed by this knight whose will and martial arts were unparalleled.
Correspondingly, he also roughly understood what kind of world this knight lived in.
It can only be said that it is a world with an extremely high level of transcendence, but it is gradually declining.
Although it has fallen, many terrifying old gods and monsters still exist in the world.
Before being eroded by the abyss, Arthas's strength on this continent was undoubtedly at the top level, and those above him could almost all be called "gods".
And this Wolf Swordsmanship is the peerless swordsmanship that he created in this world and with which he has become invincible.
Now, Qi Ji has successfully understood and mastered this sword technique.
Then, the world was filled with fog and he was expelled from it.
…
The next morning, Qi Ji opened his eyes with a relaxed smile and sat up.
Of course I have to be happy. After all, I defeated Arthas in one fell swoop last night. This was an extremely powerful enemy that I thought I could not defeat before I became superhuman.
Even though the win was far-fetched, it was a win after all.
The second is the reward for defeating the enemy, a full three hundred points of transcendence!
His current transcendence level has reached 635 points. If he doesn't use it to improve his skills, his physical fitness can be improved to about 250% in all aspects.
However, since the degree of transcendence after exceeding the limit only increases by one-tenth of the basic value, it is entirely possible to retain the basic value and consume some of it to improve those powerful skills.
Now he can make full use of the bonus of 300 points of transcendence in the "Absolute Stage" tower. If he makes an advance preparation, in the next stage of Absolute Stage, the bonus may be opened up to 400 points of transcendence. Therefore, he only needs to maintain 400 points of transcendence as the basic level and use all the extra transcendence to improve his skills. It is the most cost-effective option.
In other words, he now has 235 points of transcendence to use freely.
This time, what stands out is the munificence!
Thinking of this, he immediately called up his own panel and began to carefully study all the skills he currently possessed.
Finally, he picked out a few skills that were more suitable for improvement.
[Skill: Wolf Swordsmanship·Remnant (0/100)]
[Skill: Magic Knife - Kill (35/100)]
[Skills: Supreme Skill·Proficiency (45/50)]
[Skill: Shrinking the Earth - Swiftness (45/50)]
There are four skills. The first one is the extremely powerful wolf swordsmanship that I have just seen.
Although he saw that the swordsmanship used by the blackened Arthas was a bit ordinary, relying almost entirely on strength and speed.
However, the sentence in the skill introduction that "can ignite the power of soul fire" made Qi Ji particularly concerned. He knew that the description of the Tower of Transcendence rarely contained nonsense, and since it said there was a special power, then it must be there.
In short, it will definitely pay off if you upgrade your supreme skills, so upgrade first!
[Transcendence: 635 → 535]
[Wolf Swordsmanship·Incomplete (100/100) → Wolf Swordsmanship·Incomplete (0/200)]
[You obtain the skill branch - Unyielding]
[Skill Branch - Unyielding: Your soul is extremely tough, which makes your will and body equally tough, greatly increasing your resistance to mental attacks. When facing enemy attacks head-on, the damage you receive is reduced by 30%]
Damn, passive terms!
Qi Ji jumped up immediately. He didn't expect that the "power to draw soul fire" gained by improving the wolf swordsmanship would give him a passive ability!
He had an urge to immediately max out the next level of Wolf Swordsmanship.
But spending 200 points at once is still a bit too much...
In the end, Qi Ji used all his rationality to suppress the urge to max out his Wolf Sword Skills.
Then, continue to click on the next skill.
[Transcendence: 535 → 470]
[One-style magic sword: Kill (100/100) → One-style magic sword: Empty (cannot be upgraded)]
His strongest single-shot burst skill, called the Demonic Sword Drawing Method, was finally used by him again, and he spent 65 points of transcendence to upgrade it to the next level.
At the same time, this skill is fully upgraded.
The enhancements obtained are also simple and direct.
[Skill: Magic Sword Type 1: Empty (Cannot be upgraded): Not only relying on the body, but also mobilizing the spirit, the speed of sword drawing is brought into play in the most extreme way, and the speed of sword drawing is increased by two times.]
The improvement was within expectations. Although it was not as surprising as Wolf Swordsmanship, its strength was unquestionable.
On Earth where there are no extraordinary people, no one should be able to draw their sword faster than him, not even a sword master could do it.
After upgrading the two main skills, Qi Ji used the transcendence level to directly max out the other two skills that had been stuck at 45 points of proficiency for a long time.
[Transcendence: 470 → 460]
[Supreme Art·Proficiency (50/00) →Supreme Art·Mastery (0/100)]
[Shrinking the Earth·Fast (50/50) → Shrinking the Earth·Fast (0/100)]
The two skills that were improved by chance also brought him certain improvements.
After the upgrade of the Supreme Art, Qi Ji's ability to calculate and predict the battle situation during battle was further enhanced. To put it bluntly, his predictive ability became stronger.
The improvement is more obvious after the upgrade of the shrinking earth. The first level of shrinking the earth can allow him to increase to the maximum speed at the moment of starting, and the second level of shrinking the earth can allow him to accelerate to the second stage at the maximum speed, obtaining an instant burst of super speed.
After upgrading all four skills, Qi Ji used up a total of 175 points of transcendence, but there were still more than 400 points left, which was enough for the next level.
However, Qi Ji did not plan to continue improving for the time being. After all, Wolf and Arthas, two enemies from the extraordinary worldview, were still waiting for him to defeat them one by one. In case one of the enemy projections exploded with a super powerful skill, then these extra transcendence levels he had reserved would come in handy.
What's that famous saying again - Opportunities always come to those who are prepared!
After calming down, Qi Ji opened the door of the room.
Soon, we will go to challenge the Ono-ha Ittoryu gym. I hope the challenger this time can be more durable.
