Chapter 1273: Chapter 88: Power Gained Through Accumulation

With a crack, three gemstones shattered, fragments of various colors converged together, and a surge of energy enveloped these gemstones. Moments later, the fragments coalesced smoothly.

[You have acquired the ”Fragmented Stone of Soul Severing Shadow”]

[Fragmented Stone of Soul Severing Shadow]

Quality: Legendary Tier

Type: Gemstone/Special Item (Rare Items)

Effect 1: When inlaid into a weapon, weapon sharpness +28 points,

Effect 2: This gemstone can be synthesized. If you acquire five Fragmented Stones of Soul Severing Shadow, you can synthesize the Soul-Cutting Shadow Stone·Complete.

Note: The Fragmented Stone of Soul Severing Shadow is an inlay gemstone; the Soul-Cutting Shadow Stone·Complete is a Power Inheritance Gem.

Rating: 530 points (Legendary Items rating ranges from 400~530 points).

Introduction: Once the equipment’s inlay slot is opened, the gemstone can be inlaid into it.

...

The inlay attributes of the ”Fragmented Stone of Soul Severing Shadow” are straightforward, weapon sharpness +28 points, yet this simple attribute causes Su Xiao’s heart to race.

Rating is Gold; enhancement +10 Dragon Slash currently has sharpness at 40 points—an increase of 28 points makes the effect obvious.

If Su Xiao obtains 5 pieces of ”Fragmented Stone of Soul Severing Shadow” and inlays them onto Dragon Slash, how sharp will Dragon Slash become? Space-slicing is not impossible.

The attribute increased by the Fragmented Stone of Soul Severing Shadow is only one—sharpness. This is intriguing; what is this sharpness meant to sever? From the name Soul-Cutting Shadow, perhaps it severs souls.

If Su Xiao possessed soul severing capability, his cleave would take on an entirely different meaning. When it comes to souls, even a slight injury can lead to severe consequences.

The concept of soul severing is still a distance away for Su Xiao, and all of these are his conjectures. It’s more practical to first inlay the Fragmented Stone of Soul Severing Shadow onto Dragon Slash.

The ”Fragmented Stone of Soul Severing Shadow” resembles a shattered crystal fragment, with a wholly green hue.

[If this inlay is to proceed, 40,000 Paradise coins must be paid.]

The inlay fee is within acceptable range, and Su Xiao decides to proceed with the inlay. The ”Fragmented Stone of Soul Severing Shadow” in his hand begins to float and rapidly shrinks in size, eventually becoming the size of a grain of rice.

Wrapped by a white light at the handle of Dragon Slash, a very small groove gradually appears at the end of the handle. The greatly reduced ”Fragmented Stone of Soul Severing Shadow” is inlaid into the groove, completing the inlay, adding a new inlay effect to Dragon Slash’s attributes—sharpness +28 points!

Su Xiao swings Dragon Slash, and a whimpering void breaking sound echoes. He gazes at the blade edge of Dragon Slash; this sharp blade edge can no longer be described as cutting hair or slicing iron effortlessly—most metals, to Dragon Slash, are merely seemingly hard blocks that can easily be sliced through like ’tofu.’

The resources Su Xiao acquired within the Original world are rapidly transforming into his power; of course, this is not the end, the main event lies ahead.

Upon completing the World of Xiya’s main task, Su Xiao gained authority to increase ’any of his mastered skill level by 1 level.’

This precious authority obviously cannot be used to enhance everyday abilities like Sword Technique Master or Blue Steel Shadow; it is a dedicated reward for MAX (Full Level) skills.

Su Xiao’s MAX skills include: Absolute Demon Physique, Supreme Blade, Spirit Shadow Physique, and Core of Devour.

Su Xiao previously enhanced Supreme Blade once, with evident effects, he hesitates on which ability to upgrade this time.

First, he rules out Core of Devour; it’s not an ability urgently in need of enhancement.

Absolute Demon Physique and Spirit Shadow Physique are more survival-oriented abilities; if he were to enhance one, Su Xiao is inclined towards Spirit Shadow Physique.

Spirit Shadow Physique enhances Life Value according to a certain proportion of Su Xiao’s Mana Value, closely tied to survival ability.

Su Xiao is not currently lacking attack ability, thus he opts to enhance Spirit Shadow Physique.

[Enhance Spirit Shadow Physique, if you choose to enhance this ability, you will bear significant risk]

This prompt made Su Xiao recall the excruciating experience when awakening Spirit Shadow Physique, but it could not deter his determination to grow stronger.

”Enhance.”

[Breaking Spirit Shadow Physique skill limit...]

As soon as the prompt appeared, Su Xiao’s brain buzzed as if struck hard on the Heavenly Spirit Cover.

After an indefinite period, Su Xiao slowly awakened, surprisingly finding no imagined soreness, instead, an increase in his various organ activities, most evidently in lung capacity, blood oxygen content, etc. He opens Spirit Shadow Physique information.

Spirit Shadow Physique Lv.MAX+ (Passive Skill)

Skill Effect 1: Alter the body to distribute Mana Value stored in the brain throughout the body.

Skill Effect 2: Mana Value merges with the body creating a magical change, forming a good cycle with Life Value, significantly enhancing Life Value—an increase equivalent to 45% of Total Mana Value (an increase of 15%).

Note: Current Mana Value 4626 points, Life Value increase 2081 points.

...

As Su Xiao’s Mana Value increases, the Life Value boosted by Spirit Shadow Physique becomes even more considerable. Upon breaking the level limit, this enhancement cannot merely be described as remarkable but is exceedingly astonishing—a powerful accumulation.

Given Su Xiao’s current survival ability, he can surpass at least 95% of Third-tier Main Tanks, particularly in terms of Life Value quantity. As for Body Defense, it’s somewhat challenging since Main Tanks put all resources into boosting defensive power, but let’s not forget, Su Xiao’s speed is unmatched by those bulky Main Tanks, and thus claiming his survival ability surpasses 95% of Third-tier Main Tanks is not an exaggeration.

Su Xiao has already converted the resources obtained from the Original world into his power, now only needing to absorb the Dragon of Resurrection’s spirit; after that, his power growth will slow down.

Su Xiao takes out the Dragon of Resurrection’s spirit; he is in excellent condition now, with considerable time elapsed since the previous devour.

The Core of Devour inside gradually awakens, blue smoke envelops Su Xiao’s left arm, forming a skeleton amidst drifting smoke that appears to be grimacing at Su Xiao.

The Smoke Skeleton is an ability Su Xiao developed, named the Grinning Warning. Now, the Grinning Skull is only fist-sized, indicating the Core of Devour is in usable condition.

Don’t assume Core of Devour is cooldown-free; on the contrary, it does have a cooldown period, predetermined based on Su Xiao’s conditions.

If a significant amount of life energy is devoured in a short period to enhance Blue Steel Shadow Ability, Su Xiao might transform into a Demon Blade, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

The role of Grinning Skull is to warn; when Su Xiao devours life energy, the Grinning Skull enlarges, and upon reaching a certain size, Su Xiao must immediately halt running Core of Devour, and wait for the Grinning Skull to gradually shrink.

Grinning Skull is safest at fist size, and when enlarged to a basin size, Su Xiao may go berserk anytime, ultimately turning into a Demon Blade.

Blue smoke on Su Xiao’s arm envelops the Dragon of Resurrection’s spirit, extracting a significant amount of pure life energy instantly and absorbing into Su Xiao, heading straight for the Core of Devour.

Core of Devour is located near Su Xiao’s heart, and after devouring a significant amount of life energy, it starts processing the purification and transformation. The originally green life energy is refined through the Core of Devour, turning into a colorless energy.

Colorless energy gushes from Core of Devour, and Blue Steel Shadow Energy inside Su Xiao simultaneously surges forward, devouring these colorless energies.

Pure life energy relentlessly flows from the Dragon of Resurrection’s spirit, and Core of Devour does not reject any, it devours all it can, ultimately converting into colorless energy for boosting Blue Steel Shadow Ability.

Su Xiao’s current Blue Steel Shadow Ability is at Level 39; when it reaches Level 40, new additional abilities or nature alterations may emerge.

The energy needed for Blue Steel Shadow to advance from Level 39 to Level 40 is more than Su Xiao imagined, thankfully the energy within Dragon of Resurrection’s spirit is abundant.

Once Su Xiao finishes enhancing Blue Steel Shadow Ability, his next goal is the Arena. He has reached the 11th rank in the Third-tier Arena and is curious whether his current strength can achieve the top rank, specifically defeating Crazy Fox.

The reward for achieving top rank is exceedingly enticing; to obtain such a prize, Su Xiao must first pound Huang Yan and Crazy Fox.
