Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 686: Chapter 80: Preparation

In the steam, Su Xiao stood motionless, ignoring the exclamations of the nearby Contractors. He stared intently at the Equipment Enhancement Machine, with 3 seconds left in the enhancement time.

When the steam thinned a bit, a prompt appeared.

[Dragon Slash (Light Gold) +12 succeeded! Continue to enhance? If you wish to continue, you need to pay 1 Soul Crystal (Medium) + 31,000 Paradise coins.]

”Does enhancement above +12 require Soul Crystals now? These things are truly versatile; high-level enhancements require them too.”

Su Xiao chose no. Reaching +12 was already a stroke of luck; aiming for higher without special items was a fool’s dream.

The tray of the Equipment Enhancement Machine popped out, and Su Xiao put away the Phantom Demon Stone; this was good stuff.

He glanced at the Dragon Slash on the tray. A golden gleam flashed across its blade, which was sharp to the point of being ’dazzling.’ With its current appearance, no one would doubt that this was a Golden Quality Weapon.

Su Xiao picked up the Dragon Slash, and its attributes appeared.

...

Su Xiao swung the knife in the air, leaving a light golden line. He vaguely felt that his attack power was now at the top among the Second Tier Contractors.

The ability ’Vanquish Sect,’ evolved from ’Cut Iron Like Mud (Passive),’ did not disappoint Su Xiao. Not to mention the 10-point sharpness bonus, the fact that limbs cannot be restored with abilities below Fourth Tier would make all Second Tier Contractors despair. If an arm gets cut off by Su Xiao in a Second-Tier derivative world, it would mean being crippled in that world, only recoverable upon returning to Reincarnation Paradise.

But is this ability so simple? Of course not. To be precise, this ability is meant to deal with those with strong recovery abilities or ’Undead Physique’ enemies.

If these people encounter Su Xiao, they would be chopped into stumps in minutes, rendering their recovery power meaningless.

Sword Technique Master LV.30, Dragon Slash (Light Gold) +12, Strength, Agility, Vitality, and Intelligence—all four attributes at 60 points. The combat strength erupted from these combined abilities is absolutely beyond imagination.

Su Xiao was eager to test his current strength in the arena, but unfortunately, he had other tasks at hand.

After sheathing the Dragon Slash, Su Xiao, having spent 124,000 Paradise coins, left the Equipment Strengthening Hall, with 77,206 Paradise coins remaining. Although it’s not a small amount, he wasn’t wealthy.

Su Xiao returned to his exclusive room, took out the remaining Soul Crystal (Small) and a material from the storage space, a material he had been searching for a long time.

Su Xiao crafted a bomb, the pinnacle work of Alchemy Explosive Study, Sun God Apollo!

Su Xiao had created this in the Pirate World, and even Kizaru was shocked by the power of Apollo, considering Su Xiao a dangerous figure. Originally, Kizaru lived next to Su Xiao to monitor him, but after Apollo’s debut, Kizaru decisively ’moved’ away from Su Xiao, showing Sun God’s power.

Sun God Apollo: Each manufacture requires 500 Mana, needs Sun Remains, Fire Gold, 1 Soul Crystal (Small).

Apart from Mana and Soul Crystal, replacing the remaining materials with Paradise coins requires 80,000 Paradise coins, which is why Su Xiao hadn’t manufactured Apollo—too expensive.

After the Pirates, in several derivative worlds, Su Xiao was continuously searching for Sun Remains or Fire Gold, though he didn’t find Fire Gold. In Yukexin City of Hunter World, he found Sun Remains and bought them for only 50,000 Jieni.

Light flared in Su Xiao’s hand as he began to manufacture Sun God Apollo.

[Insufficient materials, Fire Gold can be replaced with Paradise coins, need to pay 15,000 Paradise coins.]

Su Xiao chose to pay. The Sun Remains + Fire Gold + Soul Crystal (Small) were melted in his hand, and a basketball-sized fireball appeared, emitting terrifying heat akin to a small sun.

Two minutes later, Bubu Wang dashed out of the exclusive room with a whoosh, its back legs trembling in fear outside the door.

Ten minutes later, Bubu Wang peeked from the doorway as Su Xiao sat on the bed studying something.

Apollo was successfully manufactured and stored in the storage space. This thing was not a regular weapon. When Su Xiao is defeated, this object will come into play, dragging the enemy to hell with him.

At this moment, Su Xiao held three metal-textured book pages, filled with mysterious runes that could cause dizziness after just one glance.

[Talent Book (Complete)]

Origin: Reincarnation Paradise

Quality: Light Gold

Type: Consumable

Effect: Consists of three pages; collect them to synthesize a complete Talent Book.

Talent Book: Essential for awakening talent (current talent: Soul Devourer).

Rating: 310

Description: Talent Book can be exchanged for with Soul Crystals (Large), with each large crystal able to exchange for one page of the Talent Book.

...

Su Xiao exchanged a large Soul Crystal for the first page of the Talent Book. Now he met the conditions to trigger the Talent Awakening Task.

1. Any naked makeup attribute reaches 50 points (achieved).

2. Achieve three comprehensive ratings of S- or higher (achieved).

3. Complete Talent Book (achieved).

[Notice: Hunter has fulfilled the preconditions for the Talent Awakening Task. Trigger task?]

Su Xiao showed a pondering expression. The level of the Talent Awakening Task would be 10 levels higher than his current level. Now, his strength had greatly increased, making this the best time to complete the task.

”Trigger.”

Su Xiao acted as if facing a formidable challenge, ready for any sudden situations.

[Talent Awakening Task triggered.]

The exclusive room was encapsulated in deathly silence. Bubu Wang seemed to sense something amiss and instinctively swallowed.

Five minutes later...

Ten minutes later...

Twenty minutes later, a steady breathing sound came; Bubu Wang was asleep on the carpet.

”It seems the next derivative world is needed to activate the Talent Awakening Task.”

Su Xiao chose to activate the Talent Awakening Task now not only because his strength had significantly increased, but also because in the next derivative world, he had a multiple choice option, allowing him to pick one from three derivative worlds. This was undoubtedly a considerable advantage.

For instance, a melee fighter like Su Xiao would certainly dislike worlds filled with flying bullets and nuclear strikes. If he had a choice, he’d opt for Pirate, Hokage, or Hunter type worlds.

Su Xiao got up and walked to the Honor Shop in his room; he still had an unused Golden Honor Medal.

After checking several items in the Honor Shop, Su Xiao closed it. The items in the Honor Shop varied; this time, there were no good items—or rather, there were no items he needed.

After being busy nearly all day, converting the benefits from the Hunter World into strength, and exchanging ’real world stay time’ for ’Reincarnation Paradise stay time,’ Su Xiao headed straight for the arena.

He needed to get accustomed to his current strength in the arena to prepare for the next derivative world, which wasn’t far off.
