# Chapter 4: Core Basic Ability Reached Lv.95
After leaving the Skill Upgrade Hall, Su Xiao headed toward the Attribute Enhancement Hall.
The Attribute Enhancement Hall was located in the central area of Reincarnation Paradise, a massive building that looked like a giant crystal from the outside, shimmering with a faint blue light.
Pushing open the crystal door, Su Xiao entered the hall. The interior was spacious and bright, with many attribute enhancement pods arranged in rows, each emitting a soft white glow.
Su Xiao walked to an empty enhancement pod, opened the hatch, and stepped inside.
[Do you want to enter the Attribute Enhancement Pod?]
[Yes/No]
Su Xiao selected Yes.
The hatch slowly closed, and the interior of the pod lit up. A mechanical voice sounded.
[Welcome to the Attribute Enhancement Pod. Your current available attribute points: 0]
[Your current true attribute points: 12]
[Do you want to use true attribute points?]
Su Xiao chose Yes.
[Please select the attribute to enhance.]
A translucent interface appeared before Su Xiao, listing his various attributes:
Strength: 285
Agility: 285
Stamina: 285
Intelligence: 285
Perception: 285
Charm: 85
These were his current true attributes, all at 285 points except for Charm, which was only 85.
Su Xiao thought for a moment. He currently had 12 true attribute points. As a Technique Grandmaster, his main attributes were Strength, Agility, Stamina, and Perception. Intelligence was also important, but not as critical as the other four.
He decided to distribute the points evenly.
[Strength +3]
[Agility +3]
[Stamina +3]
[Perception +3]
[Enhancement successful. Current attributes:]
Strength: 288
Agility: 288
Stamina: 288
Intelligence: 285
Perception: 288
Charm: 85
A warm current flowed through Su Xiao's body, and he could clearly feel his strength increasing.
After leaving the enhancement pod, Su Xiao checked his personal information.
[Contractor: Su Xiao]
[Rank: Eighth Rank]
[True Attributes: Strength 288, Agility 288, Stamina 288, Intelligence 285, Perception 288, Charm 85]
[Life Value: 100%]
[Mana Value: 6850 points]
[Core Basic Ability: Lv.95]
Seeing the core basic ability at Lv.95, Su Xiao nodded with satisfaction.
The core basic ability was the foundation of a contractor's strength. Each level increased all attributes by a certain percentage, and at higher levels, it unlocked powerful passive skills.
Lv.95 was already at the peak of the Eighth Rank. Once it reached Lv.100, it would break through to the Ninth Rank level.
"Next, I need to find a way to get more skill points," Su Xiao muttered to himself.
Skill points were the most important resource for upgrading the core basic ability. Each level required a large number of skill points, and the higher the level, the more points were needed.
From Lv.95 to Lv.96, he needed 5 Law-Destroying Skill Points. And from Lv.96 onward, the requirements would only increase.
Su Xiao opened the Honor Store interface.
[Honor Store]
[Available Honor Medals: 0]
Seeing the zero honor medals, Su Xiao frowned.
Honor medals were obtained by completing high-difficulty missions or killing powerful enemies in the war world. He had used up all his medals in the previous enhancement.
"I need to find a way to earn some honor medals," Su Xiao said.
He thought for a moment and decided to check the mission board.
Walking out of the Attribute Enhancement Hall, Su Xiao headed toward the mission hall.
The mission hall was a huge building with a constant stream of contractors coming and going. On the walls were many mission boards displaying various tasks.
Su Xiao walked to the Eighth Rank mission board and looked up.
[Eighth Rank Missions]
[Main Mission: Kill the Archbishop of the Abyss. Difficulty: S. Reward: 5000 Paradise Coins, 3 Honor Medals, 1 Golden Skill Point.]
[Side Mission: Collect 100 Abyss Spawn Cores. Difficulty: A. Reward: 2000 Paradise Coins, 1 Honor Medal.]
[Side Mission: Explore the Abyss Passage. Difficulty: A+. Reward: 3000 Paradise Coins, 2 Honor Medals.]
Su Xiao's gaze fell on the main mission.
"Kill the Archbishop of the Abyss..."
This was a very difficult mission. The Archbishop of the Abyss was a powerful existence, at least at the Ninth Rank level, and might even be stronger.
But the reward was also very generous: 5000 Paradise Coins, 3 Honor Medals, and 1 Golden Skill Point.
Golden Skill Points were extremely precious. They could be used to upgrade any skill, including the core basic ability.
"Accept this mission," Su Xiao said.
[Mission accepted: Kill the Archbishop of the Abyss.]
[Mission details: The Archbishop of the Abyss is a high-ranking member of the Abyss Faction, currently active in the Eternal Light World. You need to enter the Eternal Light World, find and kill him.]
[Mission time limit: 30 days.]
[Mission failure penalty: Deduct 10,000 Paradise Coins. If insufficient, deduct true attribute points.]
Seeing the failure penalty, Su Xiao's expression remained calm.
He had never failed a mission before, and he wouldn't fail this time either.
After leaving the mission hall, Su Xiao headed toward the Trade Market.
He needed to prepare some supplies before heading to the Eternal Light World.
The Trade Market was a huge square filled with stalls. Contractors from various factions were buying and selling items.
Su Xiao walked through the crowd, looking for what he needed.
"Boss, want to buy some recovery potions? Holy Flame Alchemist's products, top quality!" a contractor shouted.
"No need," Su Xiao replied.
He continued walking until he stopped in front of a stall.
The stall owner was a middle-aged man wearing a black robe, with a faint smile on his face.
"Mr. White Night, long time no see," the middle-aged man said.
"Kaisa, do you have any good stuff?" Su Xiao asked.
This middle-aged man was Kaisa, a famous merchant in Reincarnation Paradise. He had connections everywhere and could get his hands on many rare items.
"Of course. I've been saving some good stuff just for you," Kaisa said with a smile.
He took out a few items from under the stall.
[Abyss Resistance Potion (Eighth Rank): Increases Abyss Resistance by 30 points, lasts for 24 hours. Price: 800 Paradise Coins each.]
[Soul Energy Crystal (Large): Restores 5000 Mana Points. Price: 500 Paradise Coins each.]
[Recovery Potion (Eighth Rank): Restores 30% Life Value instantly. Price: 1000 Paradise Coins each.]
Su Xiao looked at the items and nodded.
"Give me five Abyss Resistance Potions, ten Soul Energy Crystals, and five Recovery Potions."
"Deal. Total: 14,000 Paradise Coins."
Su Xiao paid the Paradise Coins and put the items into his storage space.
"Mr. White Night, are you going to the Eternal Light World?" Kaisa asked.
"Yes."
"Be careful. The Eternal Light World is very dangerous. The Abyss Faction has a strong presence there," Kaisa reminded.
"I know."
After saying goodbye to Kaisa, Su Xiao left the Trade Market.
He returned to his Exclusive Room and began preparing.
First, he checked his equipment.
[Equipment:]
[Weapon: Dragon-Slaying Flash (Holy Spirit Rank)]
[Armor: Black King Bracer (Holy Spirit Rank)]
[Accessory: Soul Crown (Holy Spirit Rank)]
[Accessory: Nether Bone Ring (Epic Rank)]
His equipment was all top-tier, but for the upcoming battle, he might need to upgrade some pieces.
Su Xiao took out the Origin Stone: World from his storage space.
This was a special item he had obtained in the previous world. It could be used to upgrade equipment.
"Do you want to use Origin Stone: World to upgrade Dragon-Slaying Flash?"
[Yes/No]
Su Xiao chose Yes.
A golden light enveloped the Dragon-Slaying Flash. After a moment, the light faded.
[Upgrade successful. Dragon-Slaying Flash has been upgraded to Immortal Rank.]
[Weapon: Dragon-Slaying Flash (Immortal Rank)]
[Attack Power: 350-420]
[Special Effect: Ignores 50% of enemy defense]
[Special Skill: Dragon-Slaying Slash - Deals 500% weapon damage to dragon-type enemies]
Seeing the upgraded Dragon-Slaying Flash, Su Xiao nodded with satisfaction.
The Immortal Rank weapon was much stronger than the Holy Spirit Rank.
After preparing everything, Su Xiao opened the world channel.
[Do you want to enter the Eternal Light World?]
[Yes/No]
Su Xiao chose Yes.
A white light enveloped him, and when he opened his eyes again, he was in a completely strange world.
The sky was a deep purple, and the ground was covered with black crystals. The air was filled with a thick Abyss energy.
"This is the Eternal Light World..."
Su Xiao muttered to himself as he looked around.
In the distance, he could see a huge black tower reaching into the clouds. That was the Abyss Faction's stronghold.
The Archbishop of the Abyss should be there.
Su Xiao took a deep breath and began moving toward the black tower.
This battle would be tough, but he was ready.
After all, he was Su Xiao, the strongest contractor of Reincarnation Paradise.
