Mission accomplished!
With the death of Lord of Wind Spirits, Lillia.
The wind elements in Wind Chasing Holy City also began to rapidly dissipate, receding like a tide, and the azure glow that had filled the air gradually dimmed!
Bang--!
The spatial confinement shrouding the entire city also shattered with a crisp cracking sound, as if an invisible layer of glass had been broken!
White Night could feel the surrounding space regain its flow, and the oppressive sense of restraint from before completely vanished.
At the same time.
White Night's body began to flash with continuous upgrade lights!
Pale purple lightning and golden pillars of light intertwined, more dazzling than any previous upgrade!
One after another, beams of light shot up into the sky, illuminating the ruined Wind Chasing Holy City as if it were daytime.
This time, he leveled up all the way to Level 299 in one go!
After a good while.
The light gradually subsided.
When the last wisp of light vanished into his body, the residual lightning on his skin still crackled!
Whoosh--!
White Night opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a turbid breath.
Immediately after, he thought, and checked his attribute information:
[Name: White Night]
Class: Raging Thunder Swordsman
Level: Lv299
HP: 3.5 Billion
MP: 3 Million
Attributes: Strength 400,000, Spirit 120,000, Agility 180,000, Constitution 210,000
Skills: Basic Combat Arts... Thunder Spirit Blood Rage, Thunder Scar Sword Domain, Thunder Shattering Mountain Slash, Thunder Guard Thousand Flashes... "Max level again!"
White Night's face showed joy, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
In just three days, he had risen from Level 1 to Level 299!
This leveling speed was simply astonishing; it was unlikely that a second person in the entire divine selection world could achieve such progress!
As his level reached the max for the third advancement, his various attributes also reached their peak!
Especially Strength, as a warrior-type class, White Night's Strength attribute reached an astonishing 400,000!
At this moment, he felt that the hand gripping the eternal demon blade could easily cleave the earth!
Not only that, his HP also reached 3.5 billion!
Such powerful vitality, coupled with the amazing recovery effect of Healing Aura, was enough to allow him to withstand massive damage in any battle and remain standing!
Just like now.
White Night, who had just experienced a major battle, had already recovered his HP to its original state, with not a single point decreased!
At the same time, he also awakened three new skills!
All of them were still Thunder-Department skills, perfectly matching his Raging Thunder Swordsman class!
The next moment.
White Night thought, and checked the three new skills:
[Thunder Scar Sword Domain]
Type: Active Skill
Effect: Consumes 50,000 Mana to create a Thunder Scar Sword Domain centered on self, with a radius of 1000 meters, lasting 20 seconds.
The Sword Domain is filled with visible lightning sword marks. Any enemy entering the Sword Domain will take physical damage with a 1000% Strength bonus plus lightning damage with a 500% Spirit bonus per second.
The Sword Domain moves with White Night. All attacks by White Night within the Sword Domain will carry the "Thunder Scar" effect, leaving a lightning mark upon hitting an enemy. Each stack of the mark increases lightning damage taken by the enemy by 5%, stacking up to 10 times.
When an enemy's lightning marks reach 10 stacks, the "Thunder Blast" effect will be triggered, dealing physical damage with a 1500% Strength bonus plus lightning damage with a 1000% Spirit bonus, and clearing all mark stacks.
During release, White Night can cancel the Sword Domain at any time, returning 20% of the Mana cost... [Thunder Shattering Mountain Slash]
Type: Active Skill
Effect: Consumes 55,000 Mana, condenses all thunder power and strength into the weapon. After charging for 2 seconds, swings forward to unleash a giant thunder blade, up to 100 meters long and 20 meters wide.
The thunder blade deals physical damage with a 2000% Strength bonus plus lightning damage with a 1500% Spirit bonus to all enemies in its path, and has an 80% chance to trigger the "Thunder Shock" effect, stunning enemies for 3 seconds!
When the thunder blade hits the ground, it causes an earthquake with a 100-meter radius, reducing enemies' movement speed by 60% for 5 seconds within the area.
At the same time, countless lightning cracks will appear on the ground, dealing physical damage with a 500% Strength bonus plus lightning damage with a 300% Spirit bonus to enemies within the area per second!
... [Thunder Guard Thousand Flashes]
Type: Active Skill
Effect: Consumes 30,000 Mana to gain the "Thousand Flashes" state for 10 seconds.
During this state, White Night's movement speed and attack speed are increased by 500%. He leaves behind lightning afterimages while moving. Afterimages last for 2 seconds and deal physical damage with a 300% Strength bonus plus lightning damage with a 200% Spirit bonus to nearby enemies... "Three very good new skills."
"Especially [Thunder Shattering Mountain Slash]! A 20x damage bonus is just too fierce!"
White Night nodded lightly, an undisguised look of satisfaction on his face.
His fingertips unconsciously rubbed the hilt of the eternal demon blade, and the lightning on the sword body flickered slightly with his movements.
Just then.
The Game System's notification sound suddenly rang in his mind again:
[Player 'White Night', you have successfully completed the quest -- 'Fall of the Wind Spirit'!]
[You have received the reward: Wind Spirit's Gift Chest (Mythical Grade)!]
"Finally got it!"
He whispered, a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes, "Let me see if this treasure chest lives up to the difficulty of this quest!"
After all, from eight King-tier Wind Spirits to the Level 250 Wind Spirit Sacred Dragon, and then to the Level 299 Lord of Wind Spirits, Lillia!
The difficulty of this quest was simply ridiculously high!
The next moment.
He thought, and a faint glow emanated from his backpack space, as a fist-sized treasure chest slowly appeared in his palm.
The treasure chest settled steadily in his hand, emitting a soft, pale green glow.
On its surface were carved countless intricate wind totems!
There were circling wind dragons, soaring wind birds, dancing Wind Spirits... all patterns composed of shimmering wind elements!
When lightly touched, a slight tremor could be felt at his fingertips, as if life was pulsating within!
The entire treasure chest was filled with a rich, sacred aura of Wind Spirits.
Without hesitation, White Night pressed his thumb into the groove at the top of the treasure chest and applied slight pressure.
With a soft "click," the treasure chest's clasp sprang open.
The Game System's notification sound immediately rang in his mind again:
[You have obtained item: Wind Spirit Wind Chasing Sacred Armor]
"Armor? Let me see..."
White Night reached out and held the pale green light cluster floating in the treasure chest in his palm. The cluster felt warm and smooth to the touch, like holding a condensed spring breeze.
The next second, the light cluster dissipated like melting ice and snow, revealing the equipment lying quietly within.
It was a beautiful armor, entirely pieced together from pale azure dragon scale plates!
The shoulder pads were shaped like half-open wind wings, with shimmering silver edges.
A rhomboid Wind Spirit Crystal was embedded in the chest, and within the crystal, it seemed a wisp of never-fading clear wind was sealed!
At the plate joints, swirling wind patterns were carved. The entire armor exuded a strong and pure wind element aura, clearly indicating it was top-tier equipment!
The next moment.
White Night focused his gaze, and the attribute information of this equipment immediately appeared in his eyes:
[Wind Spirit Wind Chasing Sacred Armor]
Grade: Mythical
Effect: Increases Constitution by 50,000, increases HP by 100 Million; comes with passive "Gale Barrier"
(A continuous gale barrier forms around the wearer, reducing all damage taken by 30%. Each time the barrier blocks an attack, it deals wind damage to enemies within 5 meters)!
Type: Armor (Warrior Exclusive)
... "Increases 50,000 Constitution and 100 Million HP?!"
He suddenly widened his eyes, his face filled with pleasant surprise.
"For me, 100 million base HP translates to a total HP cap increase of 20 billion!"
What excited him even more was that the [Wind Spirit Wind Chasing Sacred Armor] was marked with the words "Warrior Exclusive Armor"!
This meant that the eternal holy armor, which possessed devouring abilities, could completely devour and fuse with this new equipment, further enhancing the holy armor's attributes!
Whoosh--!
White Night took a deep breath, his chest rising slightly with excitement.
Immediately after, he mobilized the mana within his body, activating the devouring effect of the eternal holy armor.
The next second.
The eternal holy armor covering his body suddenly glowed with layers of black-purple patterns, which rapidly spread like living vines!
Faint black-purple mist seeped from the gaps in the armor plates, emitting a powerful suction force like an abyss!
Whoosh--!
The Wind Spirit Wind Chasing Sacred Armor held in his palm, as if pulled by an invisible force, began to flash violently with pale green light on its surface!
Countless wind element particles peeled off the armor plates, transforming into slender green light threads that surged towards the eternal holy armor like rivers flowing into the sea.
The moment the light threads touched the holy armor, they were devoured by the black-purple patterns!
The outline of the armor became blurred and transparent at a visible speed... The originally hard armor plates gradually turned into a flowing light cluster, finally condensing into a thick green light that was completely absorbed by the eternal holy armor!
The entire process took only about ten seconds.
Devouring complete.
The black-purple patterns on the surface of the eternal holy armor slowly receded, returning to its original appearance.
But upon closer inspection, one could notice that the luster of the armor plates was deeper than before, with faint azure streams of light weaving through them!
The eternal holy armor successfully devoured its first piece of equipment!
And it was a Mythical grade right from the start!
White Night felt the weighty sensation emanating from the holy armor and couldn't help but exclaim, "This eats much better than the eternal demon blade!"
