Chapter 463 - 234: Free Deep Diving (Part 2)
[Note 1: The power among the Five Dragons is interconnected and complementary; when they are close to each other, they can perform combination divine techniques and share damage, with a significant increase in energy recovery speed.]
[Note 2: All other amplification effects are lost during the liberation of the Five Dragons]
After reading the equipment description, Chu Xiu had only one thought in his mind.
"Is this really Myth equipment? It’s freaking insane!"
Right off the bat, there’s an opening lightning strike with +900 to all attributes.
He looked at his other equipment.
Even upon reaching the General Tier, the attributes of the Vampire Count’s Wings were only +195 to all attributes.
That’s more than four times the difference!
And the following attributes are even more overpowered one by one.
Mental Amplification, Five Elements Techniques, Auto-Guard...
Each is incredibly useful!
"Mental Amplification can greatly enhance the power of my Burning Blood Golden Eyes, while Five Elements Techniques can take care of some small fry when I don’t want to waste Mana. Some divine techniques within it may have miraculous effects in certain scenarios, and Auto-Guard goes without saying..."
With 1800 defense, even the Great Sun Guard Shield upgraded to General Tier would be slightly inferior. It’s like having an all-around enhanced version of the Great Sun Guard Shield protecting Chu Xiu.
The ultimate move at the end is even more absurd.
"Any one of the Five Dragons has a basic constitution of 4900, just the constitution itself reaches King Tier!"
And clearly, these Five Dragons are of the mage type, as indicated by their astoundingly high energy level of 13600.
Powerful Five Elements Divine Techniques, and even combination techniques between them...
Chu Xiu estimated that after the liberation of the Five Dragons, taking down a top-tier King Tier Awakened shouldn’t be a problem.
After ascending to King Tier, he could even briefly contend with Heroic Spirits!
"Worthy of being Myth equipment."
"The power of just one piece of equipment allows an ordinary Awakened to challenge opponents way beyond their tier!"
With his combat ability far exceeding that of the same tier, only Myth equipment could significantly enhance his strength.
Chu Xiu put it away, satisfied.
Finally, he turned his attention to the various Abyssal rewards.
"Is this the ultimate mysterious grand prize for perfectly clearing Apocalypse Difficulty..."
Chu Xiu’s eyes flashed with anticipation.
Soon, as he concentrated, the attributes of the remaining items appeared before him.
[Deep Diving Safety Rope (Forbidden): During deep diving, pulling it allows you to quickly return to the Awakening Space, ignoring all restrictions.]
[Emperor Xi’s Exploration Lamp (Forbidden): During deep diving, increases the Abyss exploration range by +5.]
[Black Water Heavy Oil (Forbidden): Energy source for Emperor Xi’s Exploration Lamp, consumed as the lamp is activated.]
[Palm Buddha Tower (Forbidden): A component of the Palm Buddha Country. Collecting eighty-eight towers can synthesize the Palm Buddha Country. The tower can store materials and living beings, and those living within have a chance to gain the Power of the Eight Divisions. The holder also gains the Power of the Eight Divisions while within the tower.]
[Note: Being in the Buddha Tower may attract the attention of Forbidden Object 917.]
After browsing through these forbidden objects, Chu Xiu had a clear idea.
"If my guess is correct, the rewards from the Abyss should be related to Free Deep Diving."
With the safety rope, his safety for Free Deep Diving would significantly increase, and the exploration lamp would further improve his chances of finding opportunities.
Although currently, Chu Xiu, who is not thoroughly familiar with Free Deep Diving, cannot fully grasp the value of this item, he is very certain that this must be something extremely important, like the Proof of the Old Days — unlike other forbidden objects that have side effects and are nearly impossible to acquire if missed!
As for the last Buddha Tower, Chu Xiu also speculated that it most likely was one of the spaces he encountered during the Ancient Trials. Properly used, it could almost equate to having a small world of his own.
Moreover, in times of danger, he could hide inside the tower. If the enemy dared to follow, they would have to face Chu Xiu empowered by the Power of the Eight Divisions.
Undoubtedly, this is another priceless treasure. Unfortunately, due to an inherent wariness of forbidden objects, Chu Xiu wouldn’t use this treasure without fully understanding it.
But thoroughly understanding a forbidden object is no easy task. Most people, like that Awakened who destroyed an entire world, only realize something is wrong at the brink of death.
So, although extremely tempted by the Buddha Tower’s attributes, Chu Xiu decided to stick to his previous plan — find the opportunity to trade it away and leave those powerful attributes for someone else who’s more reckless to use.
Resolutely decided, Chu Xiu let out a long breath. In this way, the gains from his trial were completely organized.
He was very satisfied with this harvest!
Feeling delighted, he stowed everything away, activated the teleport, and returned to Blue Star.
"Thud."
His feet landed heavily on the ground with a dull thud in the silent night.
Yet before the sound could spread, Chu Xiu quickly released a bit of Mana to isolate it, to avoid disturbing others.
At the same time, he deftly cast a Light Body Technique on himself.
Although Chu Xiu now appeared no different from ordinary people, in reality, he weighed over a dozen tons and needed to constantly maintain a Mana lightness effect to avoid crushing the building.
These small techniques for energy manipulation don’t appear as Skills in the profession, but every Awakened automatically masters them upon advancing, much like how almost every King Tier can perform Sound Transmission and Flying, among other divine techniques.
