Chapter 55: Eight-Star Title
Four types of enhancement effects. When he saw Reward A, Su Xiao’s gaze turned dangerous. He had already heard from Mawen Hua’erzi that the other party and the old Law Destroyer had gone to “visit” the Goddess of Fortune, scaring her so badly she almost burst into tears.
This matter was related to Su Xiao, but also unrelated. The cause was that the Goddess of Fortune had mocked the luck of the Law Destroyers, implying that not even she could save their fortunes.
As a result, right after the Goddess of Fortune finished her taunt, two remnants of Law Destroyer souls went to “check the water meter.”
Extrapolating from this, Su Xiao felt that his luck fluctuated between good and bad because he had killed too many World Children—that was the key point. As for the Goddess of Fortune’s influence, it could even be ignored.
The reason Reward A had dropped was simple: this ability required the Goddess of Fortune’s blessing. But now, the Goddess of Fortune dared not appear within Su Xiao’s line of sight. First, Su Xiao was a Law Destroyer, and second, the current Goddess of Fortune probably couldn’t defeat Su Xiao.
If the Goddess of Fortune actually came, it wouldn’t be a blessing—she’d be pinned to the ground and have her blood drawn. Therefore, she could only hide in a corner, drawing circles and cursing Su Xiao.
“I’ll have to find time to talk with the Goddess of Fortune someday.”
Su Xiao muttered softly. Hearing this, Baha let out an especially mischievous laugh, as if he could already imagine the scene when Su Xiao met the Goddess of Fortune.
Su Xiao didn’t consider Reward B either. His luck fluctuated too wildly. Increasing his Luck Attribute raised the upper limit of his fortune, but unfortunately, his luck often wandered between the lower and upper limits.
Reward C was also ignored. He had no interest in being a prophet. As for predicting danger, that wasn’t very useful to Su Xiao. Usually, he was the one who sought out the source of danger and then killed it.
Reward D met Su Xiao’s expectations perfectly. He decisively chose it. As soon as he selected Reward D, he felt a gentle breeze brush past him, and then he had no other sensations.
After handling the fortune reward, Su Xiao began to examine the “Realm Passage Qualification·Two Times.” This reward was simple: he could pay to go to the Void, and each visit would consume Lv.7 Mark Authority.
His current Mark Authority was Lv.81, but in reality, it only had the effect of Lv.70, which was the maximum authority for the Seventh Rank. The excess Lv.11 authority provided no practical benefit. Using this excess authority to enter the Void was a very good choice.
It could be said that ordinary Contractors found it difficult to enter the Void because the authority requirement was too high. But there was a reason for this: the Void had no world-level restrictions. An old human man encountered by chance could be someone who had lived for hundreds of years, or even longer—an old immortal.
If an ordinary Contractor entered the Void, they might suddenly die. It was better to stay in Paradise, participate in World Wars, and avoid going out to embarrass themselves.
Besides this authority, there was also the [Fate Seed (Holy Spirit Rank)]. Su Xiao had obtained a similar item once before.
[Fate Seed]
Origin: Reincarnation Paradise
Quality: Epic Rank
Type: Item/Consumable (Can be used once)
Usage Effect: When in a Derived World/Primordial World, this item can be implanted into a Plot Character’s body. This Plot Character has a certain chance of becoming the World Child (Fake) of this world.
Rating: 999 points.
Introduction: This is… a toy for madmen.
Selling Price: Cannot be sold.
…
Su Xiao put away the [Fate Seed]. This thing might come in handy at some point. He then checked the final reward: the Eight-Star Title, Lue Tian Jing Lan.
[Lue Tian Jing Lan]
Origin: Reincarnation Paradise
Quality: ★★★★★★★★
Category: Title·Rare
Traits: Neutral·Evil
Title Effect 1: Descent (Passive) — When the Contractor equips this title and enters a Derived World/Primordial World, they will obtain an initial identity. This identity will have a relatively high status, belonging to the Neutral·Evil faction.
Title Effect 2: Lue Tian (Passive) — If the “Descent (Passive)” effect is triggered, the Hunter will be targeted by the World Child of this world. If the World Child is “overly righteous,” they will actively attack the Hunter.
Tip: If attacked by the World Child and killed, the Lue Tian Jing Lan title will forcibly suppress the world backlash caused by killing the World Child of this world.
Tip: After killing the World Child, there is a chance that their treasure chest will contain a World Core (Fragment) from a collapsed world. This is a unique enhancement effect brought by Lue Tian Jing Lan. The source of the World Core (Fragment) is provided by Reincarnation Paradise.
Introduction: The shadow that sweeps the heavens, the momentum of startling waves. No matter who you are, I advise you to step aside. The power of fate you rely on can no longer protect you.
Selling Price: Cannot be sold.
…
The [Lue Tian Jing Lan] title did not directly enhance combat power, but it had one thing Su Xiao needed: an initial status upon entering a world. For example, in this instance, without [Elder’s Letter of Recommendation], his initial status wouldn’t have been so high.
The title ability of [Lue Tian Jing Lan] could achieve a similar effect. If he entered a world without humans, [Lue Tian Jing Lan] would be even more useful. Sometimes, joining a supernatural alien race was even harder. [Lue Tian Jing Lan] solved this problem well.
The side effect of this title was that it would be targeted by the World Child. If it was a World Child with an overly strong sense of justice who liked to meddle, they might even regard Su Xiao as a lifelong enemy and then come to deliver their head… no, they should come to attack.
Su Xiao leaned back on the sofa, closed his eyes to rest for a moment, then sat up straight. His left arm was broken. Recently, this arm had been unlucky.
“Baha.”
“Already prepared.”
Baha opened the active low-temperature box. The severed arm floated up, a few drops of blood falling, indicating that the arm’s condition was well preserved.
After paying Paradise Coins, Su Xiao activated the full recovery function. Pale green light particles surged around him. The severed arm flew to his side, finally stopping near the wound.
Muscles, bones, nerves, etc., began to regenerate. After more than ten minutes, having consumed a total of 1.16 million Paradise Coins, all of Su Xiao’s injuries were healed, including the holes in his chest and shoulder, which were restored to their original state.
After recovering, Su Xiao took a deep breath. His breathing was smooth, and he felt much more relaxed. He took out four treasure chests: two were Holy Spirit Rank chests, one was a Soul Chest, and one was a Fate Chest. The remaining nine Scarlet Cards would be opened by Beini.
“Meow.”
Beini curled her tail around the Scarlet Cards and jumped onto the bed. Her cat eyes were quite confident, clearly not having been educated by Scarlet Cards much. Beside her, Bubu Wang had already prepared cola and popcorn, waiting with Baha to watch the Young Miss Beini’s meltdown scene.
Su Xiao activated the Lucky King state. Including the temporary boost from Fate Dominator, his Luck Attribute reached an unprecedented 41 points!
Su Xiao picked up the [Soul Chest]. This thing could yield 1 to 130 Soul Crystals (Complete). The effectiveness of the Luck Attribute boost would be seen now.
[You have begun opening the Soul Chest.]
[You have obtained 127 Soul Crystals (Complete).]
…
With a whoosh, a large number of Soul Crystals poured out of the Soul Chest, scattering all over the floor.
“Holy sh*t!!”
Baha’s voice cracked. He had almost hit the 130-crystal grand slam.
“Woof?”
Bubu Wang tilted his head and looked at Su Xiao, his little eyes full of confusion, as if saying, Who is this? Is this really my master? Emotions like “wait a minute” interweaved in Bubu’s eyes.
After a moment, he sidled up to Su Xiao to soak up some of his luck.
Su Xiao picked up the [Holy Spirit Rank Chest (56%)] dropped by the Old Hunter and opened it directly.
[You have opened the Holy Spirit Rank Chest (56%).]
[You have obtained Hunter’s Manuscript (Legendary Rank).]
…
A tattered notebook fell down, hitting Bubu Wang on the head.
Su Xiao’s expression remained calm as he picked up the chest dropped by the Hao Gui.
[You have opened the Holy Spirit Rank Chest·Hao (97%).]
[You have obtained Destruction·Shaking World King (Active Skill Scroll).]
…
As for the last [Fate Chest (50%)], Su Xiao wasn’t in a hurry to open it. He wanted to take a moment to let his luck stabilize, to avoid pulling something strange, even though he didn’t know if doing so would have any effect.
The gains from the chests were somewhat unexpected for Su Xiao. Undoubtedly, his luck’s upper limit had increased. The 127 Soul Crystals (Complete) and the Hao Gui’s ultimate move, “Destruction·Shaking World King,” both proved this.
But at the same time, the lower limit of his luck was also very active, such as with the “Hunter’s Manuscript.” A Holy Spirit Rank chest had directly yielded a Legendary Rank item, skipping over the Epic Rank, a major tier.
Overall, the gains were quite good. Su Xiao stood up and walked out of his Exclusive Room. He needed to go enhance his attributes and collect the 20% team resources he had obtained.
More than ten minutes later, just as Su Xiao arrived at the main entrance of the Attribute Enhancement Hall, he saw a familiar figure. That Gothic dress was too iconic.
“My father, what a coincidence.”
“…”
