YM778.TV Chapter 418: 0418: Upgrade (please subscribe)
Su Lu’s spirit soared infinitely, as if he had transcended the Realm of All Spirits and reached a deeper level of the Spirit World.
He felt as if he had incarnated as a dark nursery, birthing countless demon creatures and radiating them to many lower worlds.
These demons all had strange shapes, but third and fourth levels were easily seen everywhere, and even a fifth or sixth level wasn’t rare at all.
That is… the real ‘Abyss’!
The horrifying power of infection almost caused Su Lu’s consciousness to slowly fade away.
It was then that on his forehead, a purple ring appeared.
…
“Ugh!”
Su Lu suddenly woke up, panting heavily. He touched his forehead and said, “That was close… I almost got drawn in, the mystic knowledge of seventh level, even I, as I am now, see it as dangerous? Or is the path of the Abyss just too unique…”
He glanced at the experience pool and noticed that his original five million experience points had now become just over two million.
After watching the seventh level parenthesis of [Illusionist], the reckless Su Lu, continued to watch the follow-up of [Spirit Mage] and [Void Demon].
The current him could confidently declare that in the promotion of the [Wandering Mage], even divine beings might not know as much or as comprehensively as he does!
And this kind of divine level knowledge, inherently symbolizes power.
Also, it seemed to have a special magic that attracted Su Lu to delve deeper.
Especially the follow-up of [Void Demon].
Getting past the broken, vague images, Su Lu perceived two clear paths.
One was to become a demon with a ‘rank’, like [Fallen], and continuously get closer to becoming a true demon.
Although Abyss Demons definitely occupy the unique profession of ‘Demon’, they can become high-level demons of different species, creating a new group of demons, which is also one of the conditions for becoming seventh level.
And the other option was to become an ‘Abyss’!
This was an indescribable chaos, a pure spiritual entity, incredibly vast, possessing a strong power of erosion and infectivity.
It was when Su Lu was viewing the ‘Abyss’ path that he felt the illusion of being sucked in due to the previously consumed Inspiration.
The feeling of becoming an ‘Abyss’ was too real, were it not for the critical moment when his ‘Heart of a Wandering Mage’ warned him, he might have really been contaminated by the breath of the Abyss and fallen!
Despite being only viewed information, the knowledge of the Divine level has this characteristic! A fake Abyss can still lead to real contamination!
“That was close, if I was really contaminated, I guess I would have had to choose the path of [Void Demon]… Now that I think about it, I do seem to have a deep connection with demons.”
Su Lu let out a long sigh, looked towards the attribute column, and was somewhat pensive: “Between sixth and seventh level, experience points are consumed so rapidly… Thankfully, I have the resources to back me.”
“I hoarded experience points in the past because they were scarce and needed to be saved for emergencies, but now I can upgrade my skills and passives… I can make up for it by reaping another round in the future.”
After this wave, most of the old players would’ve already died out and the new players wouldn’t have a professional rank, so the leeks also need time to grow.
Su Lu decided that he would come back to check here later, then re-launch the Lord God game, as experience points will no longer be scarce.
With a thought, a ‘+’ appeared behind many skills in the attribute column.
“Some skills require a specific profession as prerequisite, like Creation of Dead Princess, I still can’t upgrade it, no matter how many experience points I have. Passives mostly need certain preconditions, like learning languages, at least need a learning material, experience points can then be used to upgrade them, Dragon Blood Baptism requires dragon blood.”
“I will try to upgrade all the abilities that can be upgraded, those that are useless can be ignored…”
After taking rest and fully recovering his Inspiration, Su Lu was ready to optimize the attributes column.
As he manipulated it, the experience points in the attribute column dropped rapidly, and at the same time, the levels of various skills were also increasing rapidly.
[Annihilating Experience 12000 Points… Spirit Oppression LV4→LV8! ]
[This skill has reached the limit and has gained an exclusive bonus—- Spirit Might!]
[Annihilating Experience 12000 Points… Flicker LV4→LV8!]
[The skill has reached the limit, dimensional wave sensing has enhanced!]
[Marvelous Item Creation LV4→LV8! Gained Bonus—-Grandmaster Craftsmanship!]
“Huff…”
Su Lu took a brief moment to rest, looking at his hands, knowing that now when he goes to make ordinary marvelous items, the success rate can be maintained above 90%, and he can even have a grasp on creating legendary items.
The only thing impossible to forge are Divine Artifacts!
“Divine Artifacts, or say… is the skill level of LV8 really the limit?”
He muttered to himself.
According to the legends, divine beings can turn impossibilities into possibilities.
Therefore, Su Lu suspected that these skills, which had reached the limit, might still have the possibility of enhancement after he has promoted to seventh level, which would be very far in the future.
“Now, I can at least upgrade and replace the equipment on my body, especially the Greedy Gloves, their shelf life is only two years…”
After such a large upgrade, Su Lu felt that his Inspiration could still hold up, so he shifted his attention to the other skills:
[Spirit Chain LV4→LV8! Gained Bonus—- Lock Down!]
[Heart Trick LV1→LV8! Received Bonus—- Mental Affinity, Spirit +2!]
[Dream Seal LV1→LV8! Gained Bonus—- Substantiation of Dream, Spirit +2!]
[Spirit World Traversal LV1→LV3!]
…
After consuming hundreds of thousands of experience points in one breath and gaining a variety of amplifications and bonuses, Su Lu found another skill that he couldn’t upgrade.
“Spirit World Traversal, huh? LV3, which only provides me with a bit more resistance in the Realm of All Spirits… Does its qualitative change at LV4 symbolize advancing to a higher level of the Spirit World?”
The fourth level of the Spirit World—-Realm of All Spirits, is far from the core of the Spirit World!
In Su Lu’s mysterious knowledge, the Spirit World represents everything! It holds infinite secrets, even divine beings are insignificant in comparison to it!
“But there are some unexpected increases in attributes, which is a pleasant surprise.”
Su Lu looks at the passives, planning to upgrade all that could be upgraded.
[Strong LV4→LV8!]
[Agile Steps LV4→LV8!]
[Void Physique LV1→LV3!]
…
“Among the passives, language and knowledge types all need learning, and only these three can be upgraded… As for the Language of Arrogance, I really don’t want to increase its level anymore.”
“But it is this Void Physique… I feel that to break through from LV3 to LV4, it’s not just about experience points, it also needs the bloodline of a Void creature.”
After the upgrade, Su Lu sat quietly, his powerful Inspiration monitoring and adjusting every part of his body.
On his forehead, a lustrous purple ring emerged.
This made Su Lu realize that he had finally reached the pinnacle of the [Wandering Mage] occupation after traversing worlds, comprehending rules, removing impurities, and upgrading skills!
