Chapter 2: One Hammer Strike, the Title on the Forging Disc Becomes a One-Star·100% Potential Title.
Aside from the two outcomes above, Su Xiao's "Title Reforging" has a 99.99% probability of not producing a third result. The remaining 0.01% cannot rule out the protective mechanism certified under 75,920 points of Reincarnation Paradise Reputation.
However, what leaves one speechless is that this remaining 0.01% protective mechanism operates on a Luck judgment. When Luck is judged, Su Xiao has used a 99% probability as if it were 0.99%. As for this 0.01%, one can only say it's better to have it than not—at least it provides a visual sense of success.
[Tip: You have received income from the Eternal Light World·Demon Insect Race.]
[You have obtained 6 Abyss Weapon Fragments.]
...
Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao looked puzzled. After checking the related branch prompts, he understood what was happening. First, this matter traces back to the characteristics of the Eternal Light World. This place is a cage for World-Destroying-level beings and Abyssal creatures. Among the myriad realms of the Void, a very small number of people have family inheritance ability systems specifically designed to seal Abyssal creatures into the Eternal Light World.
Previously, the Eternal Light World had the Four Giants and other World-Destroying-level existences. When World-Destroying-level beings arrived, they were basically devoured by them. Now, with the Demon Insect Race in the Eternal Light World, the situation is even worse for those World-Destroying and Abyssal creatures banished there.
In the past, there was a slim chance of finding a place to lie low in the Eternal Light World while contending with the Four Giants. But facing Jila, there was truly nowhere to escape.
When Jila eliminates these banished World-Destroying or Abyssal creatures in the Eternal Light World, it is naturally not judged as Su Xiao's kill, even though Jila is his permanent summon. However, since both parties are not in the same world, these kills are certified by the Void Tree.
To some extent, Jila, who has become the "Ultimate Enhanced Version·World Daughter" in the Eternal Light World, is both Su Xiao's permanent summon and not entirely so. This is not because Su Xiao is unqualified, but because the Demon Insect Race under Jila's control is too powerful—so powerful that it exceeds the certification scope of a summon.
It is not that the corresponding certification cannot be repaired; it is that there is no need to consume a massive amount of Space-Time Power for this. Under such circumstances, the corresponding judgment appears.
When Jila is outside the Eternal Light World, she is 100% judged as a permanent summon. When Jila is inside the Eternal Light World, she is both a summon and not entirely one, becoming a small contractor account under Su Xiao's Reincarnation Imprint branch. Even if this branch certification has no judgment, it has still been certified.
Since the certification exists, there should be at least the most basic kill income. However, Jila has neither an independent Paradise Imprint nor a corresponding comprehensive judgment. A more compromise method emerged: the Eternal Light World·World Shop.
When the insect race under Jila kills those World-Destroying or Abyssal creatures banished from unknown places, Jila obtains a type of World Gold Coin that can only be spent in this World Shop. Additionally, the items in this World Shop are currently particularly singular. At this stage, there are only [Abyss Weapon Fragments].
The combination of these situations is the reason Su Xiao received the previous prompt. For others, submitting [Abyss Weapon Fragments] can exchange for Abyss Weapons. But for Su Xiao, who cannot use Abyss Weapons, he prefers to use his exclusive authority as a Law Destroyer to convert them into "Demon Spirit Energy."
...
[Checked: You are a Shadow of Law Destruction and cannot hold "Abyss Weapons."]
[Related balance mechanism activated.]
[Formulation complete. Since you cannot hold "Abyss Weapons," you can submit "Abyss Weapons" or "Abyss Weapon Fragments" to Reincarnation Paradise to obtain an equivalent value of "Demon Spirit Energy."]
[You have obtained 61.9% Demon Spirit Energy.]
...
Adding the previously saved 24%, the total is 85.9%, not enough to form a complete portion. Fortunately, Su Xiao has a [Demon Spirit Source Matter] stored in his exclusive room. Previously, due to insufficient Soul Strength, he had to control the enhancement of the Blade Demon Spirit. Moreover, the characteristics of [Demon Spirit Source Matter] are very unstable, so it was stored in the exclusive room, which is certainly foolproof.
For now, there is no need to worry about Soul Strength. He crushes the [Demon Spirit Source Matter] seal bottle in his hand.
First, the Blade Demon Spirit absorbs this [Demon Spirit Source Matter]. After the conversion is complete, Su Xiao takes 50% of it and uses this enhanced energy to improve himself.
[Your Abyss Resistance has permanently increased by 1 point.]
[All your potential upper limit ranks have permanently increased by +1.]
[Your Blade Demon Spirit·Demon Spirit Intensity has permanently increased by 30 points.]
...
Just as Su Xiao closes the prompt, a new one appears.
[Tip: The SSS-level Adventure Group's shared ability has been triggered. Each time the world settles, based on the group leader's comprehensive evaluation, corresponding team skill points will be obtained.]
[This comprehensive evaluation is S+. You should receive 40 team skill points (unobtainable).]
[Team Skill, Hunting Group (Passive L): During world settlement, can increase your own body attributes by 1 to 5 points (randomly increased among the seven attributes: Strength, Agility, Intelligence, Stamina, Charm, Luck, Willpower).]
[This skill benefits: The Hunter himself, Bubuteni, Amu, Baha, Beini.]
...
The lottery session begins. Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, and Beini all gather around. Among them, Baha and Beini are already starting to laugh but hold it in. Bubu Wang, on the other hand, has a serious expression. The reason is that during the last stay limit in Reincarnation Paradise, when Beini bought luxury fur care products, she won a 158-size little giant tribe slipper in the lottery. It was made of wear-resistant, highly tough artificial premium silicone material.
Such a convenient large slipper makes one wonder if it was really won in a lottery. Which manufacturer would use this PNM-5 grade artificial premium silicone material to make slippers, and coincidentally for little giants? And, this thing is a lottery giveaway~
Obviously, Miss Beini is saying, "Stupid dog, if you dare bully this cat again, next time the lottery will win a titanium alloy little giant slipper."
[Your Charm attribute +1 point.]
[Your Charm attribute +4 points.]
...
Very good, the luck is normal. After using "Fate Dominator" later, opening the treasure chest this time is very likely to yield a supreme treasure. Especially, the current "Fate Dominator" has:
"Extreme Luck (Core·Passive): When opening chest-type items, there is a 15% probability of obtaining the 'Maximum Amplitude Gain' (Under normal circumstances, it is absolutely impossible to trigger this gain level. It can only be triggered when the bare Charm attribute is above 300 points and the Luck-based basic ability reaches Lv.85 or above, or with extremely special luck-type equipment. When this gain level is triggered, the chest will have a strong flash phenomenon lasting more than 3 seconds after opening)."
...
[Tip: All your adventure group skills have reached L. The team skill points you obtain will be converted into team permission cards.]
[Team skill points converting. You have obtained 40 team permission cards.]
[Team Permission Card: When the adventure group leader uses this card, it can increase the level of a designated adventure group skill by +1. To upgrade a "Rare·Team Skill," 3 "Team Permission Cards" need to be consumed at once.]
...
The 27 "Team Permission Cards" obtained last time were sold by Beini on Trade Street for 121,500 Soul Coins, which is 4,500 Soul Coins per card. For high-level adventure groups, this price is not high.
It should be noted that although Su Xiao's "Dawn Adventure Group" is a solo adventure group, as an SSS-level (highest level adventure group), the "Team Permission Cards" derived from his adventure group can also be used normally by large multi-person adventure groups. Moreover, after use, there are certain hidden benefits, after all, these are "Team Permission Cards" derived from the world evaluation income of an S+ ultra-high-level world.
"Team Permission Cards" indeed have no quality distinction, but there are color differences. Ordinary ones are white, better ones are purple, and top-tier ones are gold. The "Team Permission Cards" derived from Su Xiao's adventure group are so intensely gold that they already have a dark gold feel.
Looking at these "Team Permission Cards" in his storage space, Su Xiao thinks of his old friend Divine Emperor. The Divine Emperor Adventure Group has developed quite well. However, compared to the "Ram Merchant Guild" under the Divine Emperor Adventure Group, the Divine Emperor Adventure Group itself is a mixed bag.
But the core members of the Divine Emperor Adventure Group all understand one thing: while the merchant guild brings in money quickly, when disaster strikes, one's own strength is reliable. Soul Coins are indeed omnipotent, but when danger approaches, Soul Coins not only cannot solve the imminent death but also fuel the greed in the enemy's heart.
Even now, the cognition of most Eighth and Ninth Rank Contractors is basically, "Wow, the 'Ram Merchant Guild' is actually a branch under the Divine Emperor Adventure Group?"
Counting the time, it's been a long time since he last traded with the Divine Emperor Adventure Group. They must have ample funds by now, so he can thoroughly fleece... ahem, trade with full sincerity.
But before that, Su Xiao has something more important to do. He leaves the room and heads straight to the Attribute Enhancement Hall. Over 30 minutes later, the door behind him closes.
[Welcome to use Attribute Enhancement Pod No. 1806.]
[Available True Attribute Points: 100 points.]
Su Xiao does not activate the Attribute Enhancement Pod for now. He sits cross-legged on the ground, takes out [Divine Clan Holy Emblem·Soul], and with a crackling sound, the holy emblem turns into a sun-like golden energy that merges into his chest.
A scorching sensation like the sun spreads from his chest to the surrounding areas. All cells in his body ache intensely from this, but fortunately, his body attributes continue to rise. As a Law Destroyer who masters multiple core Law Destruction abilities, Su Xiao naturally does not faint from such pain. Instead, he feels his physique rapidly strengthening.
The information for [Divine Clan Holy Emblem·Soul] states that over the next 5 natural days, the body will be greatly nourished. In fact, this enhancement is phased. Initially, it increases True Strength, True Agility, True Stamina, and True Intelligence. The next phase is Health Points, then Mana Points, and finally Soul Strength.
Therefore, in just a few hours, Su Xiao's True Strength, True Agility, True Stamina, and True Intelligence each increase by 50 points. Unfortunately, this enhancement does not trigger the "Perfect Physique" effect, similar to the situation when enhancing with "Power Source Matter."
Su Xiao checks his own attributes. After a moment, he allocates the attribute points as follows: Strength +15 points, Agility +15 points, Intelligence +15 points. There are still 55 True Attribute Points left. Before advancing to Supreme Rank, he cannot use these True Attribute Points for now. After the allocation, he activates the Attribute Enhancement Pod he is in.
Two hours later, Su Xiao, with a slight heat dissipating from his body surface, exhales a long breath of turbid air. Surging power rushes through his body. When the enhancement is complete, he checks his personal information.
Health Points: 100% (increasing).
Mana Points: 152,469 points (increasing).
Strength: 800 points.
Agility: 800 points.
Stamina: 800 points.
Intelligence: 800 points.
Charm: -28 points.

That One Mosquito
New Year Letter to Book Friends
Looking back at 2022, in the first half of the year, my writing situation was passable. Although I occasionally took leave due to health reasons... ahem, resting one day a week, the update situation was generally stable. However, in June, my father suddenly fell seriously ill, and my heart was heavy at the time. Later, my father's condition improved. Just as I was preparing to resume stable updates, my own health had issues, leading to a less-than-ideal update situation for the entire second half of the year.
In the past year, a comment from a reader left a deep impression on me. The content was: "Waste Mosquito, my requirement for you is not high. Just don't kick the bucket."
Dear reader, please rest assured. Based on the diagnoses from two Grade A tertiary hospitals in my city and a total of three doctors, I should not be kicking the bucket yet. Moreover, as long as I take medicine on time and persist in exercise, my health will gradually improve. Thank you for your concern, dear reader. As for providing you with my address for you to send supplements, I dare not let you go to such expense.
I don't want this New Year chapter to be too heavy or self-pitying, so I'll keep it light and playful. If there are any inappropriate words, please forgive me, dear readers.
New Year, new atmosphere. I hope this year's fortune will gradually turn for the better. After last year's trials, my mentality is more stable. If last year my willpower was 10 points, this year it should at least rise to 12 points. And I hope this willpower won't increase further—the process is truly unpleasant.
I strive in the new year to recuperate my health, first restore stable updates, then consider bursts of updates. Otherwise, it would be empty boasting. I also need to organize my thoughts and conceive the subsequent worlds more brilliantly.
Finally, I wish everyone a happy New Year.
