# Chapter 1: The Soul Great Bow Forged by One of the Three Legendary Blacksmiths
This weapon possessed exceptionally high attack power. Although its attack frequency was somewhat slow, the attack power of this Soul Great Bow was determined based on Su Xiao's soul strength.
In addition, there was the enhancement from the Doom Ancient Ring, which provided:
"Doom Ancient Ring Effect 2: Doom Revelation (Passive, Unique) — When attacking enemies at range, your negative attributes will provide a bonus to this ancient ring, thereby increasing ranged damage. Current increase: 13.29 times."
"Doom Ancient Ring Effect 3: Energy Adaptation (Passive) — To activate the characteristics of this equipment, you must consume a certain amount of bodily energy. The consumption rate is: for every 0.2 times increase in ranged attack intensity, 1000 mana points must be consumed as a bonus.
"Tip: To achieve the theoretical maximum attack intensity bonus, one strike would require consuming 60,000 mana points (increasing ranged attack intensity by 12 times)."
...
Did you think that was all? Of course not. Do not forget that what had just been fired was the "Blazing Sun Blood Spear," which was composed of a large portion of liquid Apollo plus a massive amount of blood energy. Su Xiao's blood energy attack power was one of the highlights of this strike.
At the location where Kane and the others were, the Solar Flame dissipated. Kane, who had originally intended to spread his wings and fly up, bringing Hao Tao to attack the Soul Fury Beast, had his steel dragon wings freeze in place. If that strike just now had hit him, he would have been severely injured at the very least, so he decisively gave up. Flying now would be a fancy way of seeking death.
Meanwhile, in Su Xiao's area, he once again attempted to use the Mysterious Eye to detect the information on the Soul Fury Beast. The result was still a detection failure. This was understandable. Setting aside the fact that the Mysterious Eye itself was not forged for detection purposes, the higher the rank, the more powerful the detection abilities of Perception-type contractors became.
Generally, Perception-type contractors would develop toward one of the following as they advanced: Prophecy-type, Causality-type, Fate-type, or Curse-type. However, there were still less than 1% of Perception-types who remained focused on pure perception abilities. This type of pure support was very rare, but they were the precious treasures of top-tier adventure groups.
In this battle royale, there was precisely such a contractor from Death Paradise. As for how Su Xiao knew this, it was naturally through Shenfu.
He had already secretly cooperated with Shenfu in the previous round. Now, they had even divided the kill rewards in advance: one portion of Primordial Source Matter each, five World Keys each, the "Immortal Rank Nourishing Equipment Chest" belonged to Shenfu, but the Supreme Source Matter "Overlord Source Matter: Unique" belonged to Su Xiao.
To ensure they secured the kill on the Soul Fury Beast, these two old Yinbis had even conspired in advance. Shenfu used his temporary adventure group to gather the members of several other teams and formulated a reasonable and feasible, but ultimately impossible, kill plan for these team members. As the initiator and organizer of this group, Shenfu demanded a 20% share of the rewards.
With over ten people in total, Shenfu taking 20% for himself was a very high split ratio. For this reason, the team nearly failed to form. However, the more Shenfu smiled with a kind and benevolent expression without backing down, the less the other team members would suspect that he had ulterior motives.
Su Xiao and Shenfu were very concerned about the Perception-type contractor on Kane's team, so they simply set up this trap and successfully turned an enemy into a friend.
Of course, the subsequent kill still required Shenfu's help. The Soul Fury Beast still had at least 40% of its health remaining. Su Xiao raised one hand, and a blood spear nearly five meters long formed. When this blood spear solidified to the same degree as a metal entity, he gripped it with one hand. Dark blue smoke rose from it, covering the entire blood spear in a dark blue hue.
He controlled the blood energy phantom to nock an arrow and draw the bow. With a target the size of a kilometer in the distance, given Su Xiao's accuracy, a 100% hit was no problem. However, he did not attack immediately but waited.
Substances resembling gray-white dandruff fell in the distance. This represented one thing: Shenfu had held back the Platinum Apostle who was waiting for an opportunity in the shadows. This was the greatest hidden danger, and also the reason Su Xiao agreed to give Shenfu a large share.
Suddenly, the Soul Fury Beast, which was under siege by the wandering Violators in the distance, burst forth with countless black tentacles from its entire body. Each of these tentacles was several meters thick. After piercing through the flesh and emerging, they writhed wildly.
Seeing this, the blood energy phantom released the translucent blue bowstring of the Soul Great Bow.
Boom!!
The massive dark blue arrow pierced through layers of spatial air explosions and arrived in front of the Soul Fury Beast's chest in an instant. This Fury Beast was extremely powerful, but unfortunately, from the moment it appeared until now, it had been under constant siege. Even its spatial abilities were useless.
Among the wandering Violators, there were many who could seal spatial movement abilities. Do not forget that in the previous era, they often made a fortune by killing contractors from other Paradise factions.
The massive arrow pierced through the Soul Fury Beast's chest, and dark blue smoke spread along the wound. When it spread to its eyes, dyeing the depths of its pupils pitch black, the Soul Fury Beast let out an unwilling roar before being slain by the Blade Demon Spirit.
The Soul Fury Beast collapsed with a thunderous crash. The swarming wandering Violators did not stop but instead surged forward, engulfing the giant beast.
At the same time, Su Xiao received a notification from the Void Tree.
[Notification: You have slain the Dark Hybrid corresponding to you.]
[Because the kill reward split has been allocated in advance, you will receive the following rewards.]
[You have obtained Primordial Source Matter × 1 portion.]
[You have obtained World Key × 5.]
[You have obtained Overlord Source Matter: Unique (This is a Supreme Source Matter, currently located in the Void Tree inventory).]
[Notification: This is a Supreme Source Matter that matches your ability system. Before use, you may choose to pay Space-Time Power to have Reincarnation Paradise or the Apocalypse Paradise currently notarizing your participation in this battle royale perform an adaptability enhancement on this Supreme Source Matter.]
[Your initial adaptability with "Overlord Source Matter: Unique" is: 78.5%.]
[You may immediately absorb "Overlord Source Matter: Unique." If a Source Matter rejection reaction occurs, you will die as a result, and resurrection/immunity-to-death type items are ineffective against this type of death.]
[The extent of the adaptability enhancement will be determined based on the amount of Space-Time Power you pay.]
[Tip: This adaptability enhancement can only be performed once. You need to prepare a sufficient amount of Space-Time Power in advance.]
[If the adaptability between "Overlord Source Matter: Unique" and you reaches 100%, a Source Matter rejection reaction will definitely not occur.]
