Chapter 17: Truth and Counterattack
[You have returned to Reincarnation Paradise. The reason for this return is expulsion.]
The spatial transmission ended, and Su Xiao steadied himself as he landed. Not far away was the Black Maple Tree. He had nearly been teleported to the top of this tree. As for why that happened, it all started with the Equipment Enhancement Hall of Apocalypse Paradise.
"Soul Manifestation: Caesar" had no concerns whatsoever. As for Su Xiao, who summoned it, he faced no restrictions in Apocalypse Paradise, after all, he was a contractor of Reincarnation Paradise.
What followed was a truly "eye-opening" enhancement method. The final result was Dragon-Slaying Flash +21. This was not the limit of "Soul Manifestation: Caesar," nor was it due to insufficient permissions on Su Xiao's part. It was because, immediately after the +21 enhancement succeeded, Su Xiao was forcibly expelled by Apocalypse Paradise.
Arriving at the room where the Awakening Stele was placed, Su Xiao walked into the "Attribute Enhancement Pod" and activated it. Before enhancing his Supreme attributes, Su Xiao first completed the accumulated "Abyss Mission: Death's Granting."
Previously, during the four days of slaughter under the siege of the Abyss Legion, he had fully accumulated the "Abyss Mission: Guardian." Although this mission accumulated completion progress by killing Abyss-type enemies, it was very slow.
Before clashing with the five clan leaders, Su Xiao had already completed "Abyss Mission: Guardian" and immediately accepted "Abyss Mission: Death's Granting."
Although the Abyss Avatar was neither an Abyss Spawn nor an Abyss Descendant, it was a higher-order existence. Moreover, slaying it also meant killing the five clan leaders, instantly maxing out the completion of "Abyss Mission: Death's Granting" at 800%.
Checking the rewards from the previous "Abyss Mission: Guardian" and the newly completed "Abyss Mission: Death's Granting," after selling the "Elemental Treasure" and "Abyss Treasure," he obtained a total of 4,370,000 ounces of Space-Time Power. In addition:
[You have obtained Void Tree Vault Access Permission V (50% off)]
[You have obtained Void Tree Vault Access Permission VII (30% off)]
At first glance, the Space-Time Power came quickly. However, when Su Xiao activated the Attribute Enhancement Pod and began enhancing his Supreme attributes at a cost of 300,000 ounces of Space-Time Power per point, the newly acquired Space-Time Power was consumed in large chunks. His attribute allocation this time was:
Strength +5, Agility +5, Stamina +4, Intelligence +5, totaling 19 points of Supreme attribute enhancement, deducting 5,700,000 ounces of Space-Time Power.
The enhancement began. The sensation of enhancing Supreme attributes was very pleasant, a feeling of power nourishing and growing within his body. Unfortunately, this feeling didn't last long before gradually fading. With this enhancement complete, all four of his main attributes reached 50 points. He attempted to continue enhancing:
[Because all your Supreme main attributes have reached 50 points, each subsequent point of Supreme attribute enhancement will consume more "Star Realm Primordial Power." After comprehensive assessment, each subsequent enhancement of 1 Supreme attribute point will require 688,524 ounces of Space-Time Power.]
[Because you have obtained relevant permissions, Reincarnation Paradise will bear a certain amount of resource consumption for you.]
[Assessment complete. For each subsequent "Supreme Free Attribute Point" formed, you need to pay 500,000 ounces of Space-Time Power.]
[Detected that you are currently in the Abyss Campaign phase. Based on your current Hunter's Mark level, using Skill Upgrade Pods, Attribute Enhancement Pods, etc., in Reincarnation Paradise will receive a "significant" reduction provided by Void Tree/Reincarnation Paradise. Final assessment complete. For each subsequent "Supreme Free Attribute Point" formed, you need to pay 350,000 ounces of Space-Time Power.]
...
[Prompt: All your Supreme main attributes have reached 50 points. You may choose one of the following "Supreme Rank: Supreme Passive/Active" abilities to enhance yourself.]
[Because the following enhancements include a significant boost to your own Life Core ability, you must complete this choice within 2 minutes. During this time, do not enhance your Supreme Stamina attribute, as this will change the enhancement scope of this ability, resulting in reduced enhancement magnitude or even ability specialization.]
