Chapter 859 - 854: Heaven Is On My Side!
[Black Heaven Skull (Unfinished)]
[Equipment Quality: One-star King Level (Purple)]
[Equipment Position: Accessories]
[Equipment Requirements: Basic Power 100, Basic Agility 100, Basic Endurance 100, Basic Spirit 100]
[Attributes: All Attributes +12]
[Additional Skills: Unfinished]
[Durability: 1000/1000]
[Explanation: An incorrect piece of equipment appearing at the wrong time, in the wrong place.]
Qingyun curiously said, "Why is it ’Unfinished’?"
Bai Pu checked, and Gaia’s Will quickly gave a reply:
[The equipment has not undergone the final sealing step, and cannot be activated with spiritual particles, and additional skills cannot be displayed.]
Bai Pu immediately queried, "How can the equipment be sealed?"
[Place this equipment in the Celestial Border Black Death Membrane of the Silver Heart Great World, and let it be infused with evil power for 10 cosmic days. Seal it now?]
This step feels quite familiar!
Bai Pu’s King-level Purple Weapon [Doomsday], originally transformed from a Holy Artifact, required this step.
Unexpectedly, the Purple Weapon that burst out from the treasure chest also needs this step!
Bai Pu naturally chose to seal it.
A beam of pure white light shone over [Black Heaven Skull], gradually making it fade and disappear.
[The sealing process is underway. This sealing does not require spending any battle merit points.]
Bai Pu sighed in relief.
Mingyue saw the shared notification and joked, "The Spirit Realm Will isn’t charging extortionately, which is rather unusual."
Qingyun speculated, "Could it be because Xiao Bai stopped the revival of Great Dark Heaven, greatly assisting the Spirit Realm Will?"
Bai Pu said, "We definitely helped the Spirit Realm Will this time, and received Gaia battle merit, was promoted to Major General Gaia, and have received rewards. The Spirit Realm Will’s free offer is because ’sealing’ spoils is naturally part of the Spirit Realm’s rules.
"Otherwise, I won’t be able to use this purple armor at all, which would mean a wasted draw from the King-level Treasure Chest! This goes against the Spirit Realm Will’s rule of distribution according to contribution and matching risk with reward."
The three did not discuss the ownership of this Purple Weapon.
The Great and Little Witches aren’t greedy in nature, and they tacitly agreed that this Purple Weapon is Bai Pu’s, definitely for him to use.
Bai Pu wouldn’t pretend to ask for their opinions.
In Bai Pu’s eyes, the Great and Little Witches are his support in venturing the Spirit Realm, but he is absolutely the main force in exploring the Spirit Realm!
Why would support claim resources? Only when the main force’s resources are saturated will resources be allocated to support.
Judging solely by the All Attributes +12, Bai Pu can certainly use this [Black Heaven Skull] accessory.
Moreover, Bai Pu, upon reaching Enhanced Lord Level energy strength, gained space to wear one more piece of high-grade equipment, perfectly accommodating one piece of purple armor.
Subsequently, Bai Pu examined the [Black Heaven Shell], realizing the interesting fact that this solid mass can transform into various weapon forms.
This reminded Bai Pu of how Emperor Yan controlled the Great Dark Heaven shell, once condensing the layer of black hardness comparable to Crystal Celestial Pillar on its surface into a gigantic glaive.
This black hardness must be part of the Great Dark Heaven’s body surface hardness!
As a result, its ability to morph into various weapon forms implies broad applicability.
Bai Pu tried transforming it into a long spear, to compare with [Doomsday].
[Black Heaven Spear (Unfinished)]
[Equipment Quality: One-star King Level (Purple)]
[Equipment Position: Two-Handed Weapons]
[Equipment Requirements: Basic Power 100, Basic Agility 100, Basic Endurance 100, Basic Spirit 100]
[Attributes: Additional Attack Power 150~300; Attack Strength +100]
[Additional Skills: Unfinished]
[Durability: 1000/1000]
[Explanation: An incorrect piece of equipment appearing at the wrong time, in the wrong place.]
"A one-star Purple Weapon, still inferior to the Doomsday Spear. However, its variability is advantageous."
In Bai Pu’s hand, the Black Heaven Spear steadily transformed, changing according to his will into the shape of a longsword, curved saber, and even resembling Emperor Yan’s long-handled glaive.
With the transformation of weapon shape, attack power also varied, but never surpassed the attack power of [Doomsday].
Attack strength, however, remained constant at 100 attack strength points, 20 less than Doomsday.
Bai Pu opted to seal it, entrusted the Spirit Realm Will to send it into the "Celestial Border Black Death Membrane" for evil power infusion, to be retrieved after 10 days.
Bai Pu addressed the Great and Little Witches, "This Purple Weapon would barely enhance me. Who among you wants it?"
Bai Pu’s character is such that if an item can strengthen him, he wouldn’t even ask—he takes it directly.
Yet for items that aren’t useful to him but benefit teammates, he wouldn’t be stingy at all.
Mingyue and Qingyun hesitated a bit. Mainly because Purple Weapons are exceedingly valuable, impossible to measure in worth.
Mingyue, being the more generous one, said, "Since you’re one of us now, if you give it to us, we’ll take it. My [Green Snake in the Sleeve] is a Dark Gold Weapon, fitting my combat style well, so no need to replace it. Qingyun, you take it."
After some hesitation, Qingyun agreed. She uses the set dual blades, with only one set skill of [Absorbing Blood]. Switching to a Purple Weapon surely provides far greater enhancement than for Mingyue.
Were it not for this close bond, the Great and Little Witches wouldn’t have accepted Bai Pu’s distribution of purple treasure chest spoils, fearing that Bai Pu would regard them as greedy for possessions.
Now, however, with both having given their first experiences to Bai Pu, they’ve identified with him.
Naturally, they harbor feelings akin to marrying a chicken and following the chicken; marrying a dog and following the dog. Should Bai Pu rise to prominence, they also prosper; should Bai Pu fall, they willingly share in his downfall.
The King-level Treasure Chest awarded Bai Pu a full million Spiritual Points.
Of course, the current Bai Pu couldn’t care less about this small amount.
Bai Pu stated, "Shouldn’t it be daytime now? Mingyue, Qingyun, go and gather the quartermasters of the Four Great Oaths. Once we’ve exchanged for the ’World Uniqueness’ item, we’ll start acquiring the Xiyuan Clan’s Demon-Controlling Secret Technique."
The Great and Little Witches responded promptly and exited the cabin.
Summoning the quartermasters over is probably an unparalleled honor. Bai Pu has such prestige.
Soon enough, the quartermasters of the Four Great Oaths arrived at the large cabin where Bai Pu was.
Qinglong Oath’s "Dongbo Longjie."
Vermilion Bird Oath’s Flame Blade Princess—the original quartermaster "Zhu Qiong Family Elders" unfortunately perished in battle.
White Tiger Oath’s "Xiyuan Lin."
Black Tortoise Oath’s "Beiming Chuan."
All four quartermasters are seasoned swordsmen of the expedition team, Lord-level experts, figures of prominence in the eyes of ordinary Awakened, yet summoned promptly by Bai Pu’s request.
Bai Pu first took out the [Demon Blood Stone] previously dropped by the Red Emperor, inquiring about the secrets it held.
This Demon Blood Stone has been stored in Bai Pu’s Storage Space for a long time.
Bai Pu finally stepped into the advanced plane of the Heart Demon World this time and took the opportunity to inquire. Naturally, this inquiry was merely an introduction. Bai Pu’s real intention was merit exchange.
Xiyuan Lin examined it for a bit before declaring, "This stone contains very pure demon bloodline. Activating it will significantly aid in cultivating ’Blood Spiritual Power.’
Blood Spiritual Power? That’s essentially Bloodline Fighting Qi.
Previously, Bai Pu, while learning Blood River Fighting Qi, found it rather suitable. But since Bai Pu created Prismatic Demon Fighting Qi, stepping onto the path of Elemental Fighting Qi, this Demon Blood Stone became unsuitable.
Bai Pu immediately looked to Qingyun, "You cultivate Blood Melting Fighting Qi, do you not? I’ll have the natives activate this stone for you to use."
Having addressed the matter of the Demon Blood Stone, Bai Pu said to the four quartermasters, "Merit exchange."
Instantly, time seemed to stall momentarily, and four transparent dropdown screens appeared before Bai Pu.
Bai Pu promptly scrolled the exchange screen all the way down.
He wanted to see what exactly the World Uniqueness item for exchange was.
At first glance, Bai Pu couldn’t help but inhale sharply, then beam with delight.
"Thank heavens! There’s hope for the merging of Five Great Mystical Arts!"
