Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 807: Chapter 177: Revenge of the World

The crystal had an irregular shape, as if it were a fragment of something, its surface bumpy and gray, devoid of any beauty. If it weren’t for the occasional gleam and slight transparency it exhibited, Wen Yu might have thought it was nothing but a mere broken stone.

However, the more ordinary it seemed, the more Wen Yu anticipated; the Heavenly Dao wouldn’t fool him with a mere broken stone, and this was why Wen Yu left this item to be examined last.

With a thought, the crystal within the space ring appeared instantly in Wen Yu’s hand.

The cool touch transmitted through his fingertips, and simultaneously, a vague sensation suddenly flashed through Wen Yu’s heart.

He couldn’t quite articulate what that feeling was,

Sadness? A little.

Excitement? A little, too.

But more so...

It seemed to be a fondness and a mysterious sense of hatred.

...

Quickly smoothing the strange emotions in his heart, Wen Yu fixed his gaze on the crystal in his hand.

As if a computer were overloaded, running sluggishly, it took a while before a prompt sounded in Wen Yu’s mind.

”World Heart Shard (Species-specific Esoteric Level item) (rated as such due to the absence of a higher level) (mutated): As the name suggests, the World Heart is the core of a world. Typically, the World Heart is hidden in the deepest part of the Earth’s nucleus, containing the majority of the world’s Origin Energy. Using certain methods, one can extract the Origin Energy from within the World Heart. When the Origin Energy within is depleted, the World Heart will shatter and disintegrate into the most ordinary of stones.”

”Upon identification, the World Heart Shard in the host’s possession is from the Universe of Immortals and Heroes. It was shattered artificially, while its Origin Energy was not yet exhausted, and refined into an item.”

”Usage: Integrate the World Heart Shard into the body. Note: This act is only for divine beast species of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes. Forcibly integrating it without being a divine beast of said world will result in backlash with a great risk to life!”

”When the World Heart Shard is integrated into a divine beast of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes, it will double the species innate talent of the divine beast and grant the species-specific Esoteric Level skill: World’s Gaze!”

”World’s Gaze (Species-specific Esoteric Level, Passive Skill): Upon obtaining this skill, the host gains the attention of the world, possessing Major Fortune and great opportunities within this world, akin to the powers of the world’s child!”

”Note: As the Universe of Immortals and Heroes has perished and the world’s will crumbled and vanished, World’s Gaze is invalid. Due to unknown refinement methods, the skill has mutated into Revenge of the World!”

”Revenge of the World (Species-specific Esoteric Level, Passive Skill): Bearing the last hope of a world, you need not restore the former glory of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes. You only need to make the enemies of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes feel its anger, making them pay the price in blood and tears!”

”After acquiring this skill, each time the host kills a Demon Fiend (or...), depending on the strength of the slain entity, the World Heart Shard will emit a wisp of world Origin Energy, enhancing the host’s divine beast species innate talent. At the same time, a World Revenge Mark is gained!”

”World Revenge Mark: Incorporates the despair and anger of deceased beings, transforming into a blade that counteracts all. When facing revenge targets, each mark boosts the host’s attack strength slightly (Note: attack strength is not equivalent to physique points).”

...

After reading about the World Heart Shard, Wen Yu’s eyes suddenly lit up.

This item, along with the skills it brought, truly amazed Wen Yu.

In general, after choosing to integrate this World Heart Shard, the divine beast species innate talent would first double. As it stands, one physique point is equivalent to 6 points, becoming 12 points.

Then, each time Wen Yu kills a Demon Fiend, he will gain Origin Energy to strengthen his divine beast species talent, along with a World Revenge Mark.

Revenge on Demon Fiends, as for... that unstated subject, it must be the Dominator and his pack... for revenge.

Of course, the latter isn’t the focus now, but the former, the World Revenge Mark, can enhance one’s attack strength, and it’s both permanent and stackable! Wen Yu knew precisely what this meant.

This signifies immense domination over Demon Fiends, which at present, are undoubtedly the greatest enemies of himself and indeed the entire Earth.

In general terms...

”Not bad, this time, my convenient Senior Brother and convenient old father are indeed generous.”

Wen Yu beamed and praised, then stowed away the World Heart Shard, and gazed at another space ring.

The World Heart Shard was definitely something Wen Yu would integrate! But not now—just in case the other space ring contains some skills more suitable for him, it would be prudent to acquire those first!

...

”Space Ring (S-class Tool)...”

Another S-class space ring, counting the one Mo Xuan gave him, made it three S-class space rings Wen Yu had, but overall, its utility was not particularly substantial in Wen Yu’s current perspective, almost like a mere appendage.

The S-class space rings had roughly the same internal capacity. Wen Yu looked inside and subsequently took out three items.

Ah, even fewer than before, just three items!

This compelled Wen Yu to grumble about the Heavenly Dao’s ”big move”—just a few items, but they had to be divided into two S-class space rings.

He casually picked up a scroll.

”Soul Harvest (Species-specific Esoteric Level, Active Skills): A Soul-type Offensive Skill that releases a massive, ring-shaped soul energy attack centered on the host, with a terrifying energy level. The attack range is determined by the host’s Soul Strength. Enemies hit by Soul Harvest will have a forced Soul Strength Judgement—units with Soul Strength less than half of the host’s are annihilated on the spot, while units with Soul Strength higher than half but lower than the host’s will suffer devastating soul damage! Units with higher Soul Strength than the host will endure a conventional strength soul attack.”

A terrifying soul-type offensive skill, even comprising a certain degree of lethal effect. Considering Wen Yu’s current Soul Strength, barring very rare Level 5 life forms, none could withstand a single Soul Harvest from him!

”Not bad, very impressive!”

This skill, in Wen Yu’s eyes, even though it’s not on par with Revenge of the World, is still extraordinary!

Subsequently, Wen Yu took out another skill scroll.
