Chapter 457 - 232: Trial Complete
"!!!"
Looking at the panel in front of him, Chu Xiu’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Although he had long thought that gods like Celestial Humans, Celestial Dragon, and Asura, who are obviously much stronger than other units, would definitely drop excellent items, the actual harvest still far exceeded his expectations!
A total of over 20,000 task contribution points, and two Mythical items!!!
"I didn’t expect to actually get Mythical items; the rewards from the Apocalypse Trial are indeed too generous," Chu Xiu couldn’t help but sigh.
However, the strength of the Celestial Human and Celestial Dragon obviously far exceeded the normal King Tier, their person at least comparable to a Demigod, so it’s not surprising that they could drop Mythical items.
Chu Xiu looked down to check.
[Celestial Human Divine Thought: King Tier Mythical Artifact, an extremely large and solid conglomeration of thoughts, can be used to drive large war machines, as the primary material for refining high-tier soul chains and soul-type equipment, etc. The current tier is Fierce Tier, directly usable to activate Celestial Human Divine Techniques, casting large-scale mental control skills, and enhances the holder’s Mental Attack Resistance by +1400.]
[Celestial Dragon Golden Pill: King Tier Mythical Artifact, the energy source of the Celestial Dragon, contains immense energy, can be used as energy for large war machines, primary materials for high-tier equipment and elixir refining, etc. The current tier is Fierce Tier, directly usable to activate Celestial Dragon Divine Techniques, significantly enhancing the attributes of allied forces within range, and increases the holder’s Energy Recovery Speed by +200/s.]
[Note: The soul and energy stored in the Celestial Human Divine Thought and Celestial Dragon Golden Pill are finite, each use will consume them, and once depleted, they will no longer have any special effects, only usable as materials for equipment refining.]
The effects of these two artifacts brought a joyful expression to Chu Xiu’s face.
As expected of Mythical Artifacts, they indeed have extremely high bonuses!
Whether it’s the mental resistance of the Celestial Human Divine Thought or the energy recovery bonus of the Celestial Dragon Golden Pill, they far surpass similar types of Legendary equipment!
For example, his current mental defense equipment, the Immortal Corpse King Talisman provides 560 points of mental resistance, the Great Sun Guard Shield is 420 points, and the Head of Moloch is 520 points, all only about one-third of the Celestial Human Divine Thought!
With this piece of equipment, Chu Xiu could be said to have filled the last gap; now, he can effectively resist mental attacks below the Heroic Spirit level.
The effect of the Celestial Dragon Golden Pill is equally powerful, although it cannot help restore the Golden Embryo Origin, it allows Chu Xiu to more freely use various General Orders to cope with the ever-growing Ghostly Legion scale.
At the same time, the skills attached to both can greatly enhance Chu Xiu’s strength, especially the effect of the Celestial Dragon Golden Pill, which fits perfectly with Chu Xiu’s Ghostly Legion and can elevate its combat power to another level.
However, at the same time, Chu Xiu also felt a bit regretful.
"It’s a pity that it’s just a Mythical level artifact, not equipment; once the energy is exhausted, it cannot be used again."
This is the flaw of artifacts; they usually have usage limits or other restrictions, which is also why the value of artifacts is often much lower than that of equipment.
But Chu Xiu quickly chuckled self-deprecatingly, without thinking too much; being able to find Mythical items was already an unexpected joy, why covet anything else?
Moreover, with the inheritance of the Duo Bao Demon Venerable, even after the power stored in these two artifacts is exhausted, Chu Xiu can likely refine them into suitable artifacts.
Thinking of this, Chu Xiu no longer cared much and focused his attention on the last one.
An additional gift from the Forbidden Object 917?
Speaking of this thing, he was not unfamiliar with it; previously, when he completed the novice task in the Corpse Demon World, he gained the additional gift of the Endless Blood Pool at the end.
This shows that these powerful beings actually have intricate connections with the rules of the Abyss itself.
It’s just unknown what exactly the operating rules among them are.
This seemed like an additional surprise.
However...
"I really don’t want to get involved with any Forbidden Objects." Chu Xiu sighed lightly.
In the records of the Blue Star, there were few good outcomes for the holders of Forbidden Objects. These things are indeed powerful, but unlike powerful beings like the gods, they have very strange behavioral logic; simply put, they are extremely uncontrollable.
They may be helping you one second, and the next second, because you accidentally triggered some hidden rules, they directly obliterate you!
On the Awakened’s official website, there is always a warning example; that Forbidden Object not only killed its holder but also annihilated all life in an entire world.
Its surface effect is [absorbing a certain life force as energy, then slowing the time flow of enemies within the domain].
This effect is extremely abnormal; on the highest occasion, the holder even slowed the opponent’s time flow by a whole ten times! With this Forbidden Object, it becomes effortless to leap across tiers in battles; let alone one tier, even leaping two tiers is possible! Even three tiers are possible!
That Awakened killed no less than ten Heroic Spirit tier enemies while still at the King Tier! When he became a Heroic Spirit, he had no opponents; even the eight Celestial Kings did not dare to provoke him easily.
But one day, that powerful Awakened suddenly disappeared, taking with him the destruction of his world.
According to subsequent official investigations, the actual ability of that Forbidden Object was [absorbing a certain life force as energy, then accelerating its own time flow within a certain range].
The two seem to have no differences at all; doesn’t accelerating oneself equal slowing the enemy? But actually, this Forbidden Object had a hidden rule, which is [the higher the acceleration, the harder it is to stop the acceleration process]!
