113: Sweep the treasure house and get a heaven-defying improvement (2/4)

“Ding!”

“Congratulations! You have obtained the item: star fragment (Mythical) x 297.”

After that, it was Li Si’s/Blazing Sky Craftsman’s turn.

Inside Divine Smith Valley, domineering crimson flames incinerated the star fragments into liquid, which slowly flowed into the three Mythical-grade pieces of equipment. Starlight flickered, upgrading the equipment's level.

“Ding!”

“Congratulations! Your upgrade was successful.”

“Congratulations! Your upgrade was successful.”

“Congratulations! Your upgrade was successful.”

Three system prompts appeared consecutively. The three Level 100 Mythical-grade pieces of equipment transformed into Level 1, with their attribute bonuses significantly reduced.

At the same time, Blazing Sky Craftsman’s progress bar for leveling up to Lv5 directly surged by 30%, reaching 60%.

“Ding!”

“Congratulations! The attributes of your special equipment, divine smith token, have been enhanced.”

“An unexpected pleasant surprise.”

Li Si quickly opened his divine smith token to check its attributes.

Only the first special effect changed: the attack cap increased from 15% to 25%, and critical damage also increased from 15% to 25%.

Not bad.

A total attribute bonus increase of 20%.

It was already quite high.

Attack Gain: 114%.

Attack Cap: 1012.

Critical Damage: 230%.

At this moment, Li Si suddenly thought of the gale sword embryo. The Chaotic Star City Treasure Vault contained quite a few wind-attributed items.

“Haha… holy crap!”

Thinking this, he burst out laughing, immediately casting Great Teleportation Technique to pierce through space and arrive inside the vault.

He began to sweep through the first level of the vault.

“Devour!”

“I’ll devour!”

“I’ll devour, devour, devour!”

“Devour for me!”

“......”

After several hours of work, there was no longer a single wind-attributed item left in the entire vault. The attribute bonus of the gale sword embryo had undergone a complete transformation—

【gale sword embryo】 (Special)

Level: None

Special Effect 【Windstorm Great Path】: Accompanying the gale, attack speed +15% → +150%, movement speed +15% → +150%.

Special Effect 【Gale Devour】: Devouring wind energy can enhance the attribute bonus of the gale sword embryo.

Special Effect 【Special Artifact】: Possesses peculiar great power, can integrate into the player's body, attributes automatically take effect.

Description: The divine foundation of the Wandering Swordsman. Please re-nurture it to enhance the attribute bonus of the gale sword embryo.

“.... Awesome.”

Seeing the gale sword embryo’s panel, Li Si couldn’t help but exclaim how heaven-defying it was. In fact, the attribute bonus of the gale sword embryo could indeed be called heaven-defying.

A cumulative 300 percentage points, terrifying to such an extent!!

Is this the foundation for a Legendary Monarch to become a god?

What a pity.

He didn't manage to get Bi Xuan's divine foundation. Otherwise, his combat power could have soared by another large margin.

Li Si sighed endlessly, checking his own panel.

Attack Speed Gain: 205%.

Attack Speed: 8.24.

Movement Speed Gain: 207%.

Movement Speed: 134.5.

“Haha… holy crap.”

Li Si’s hearty laughter echoed through the Chaotic Star City Treasure Vault.

This movement speed was invincible.

The attack speed was even more invincible among invincibles, especially when combined with Phantom Sword Dance, a 15-fold attack speed bonus, 15 x 8.24 = 123.6. Striking 123 times in an instant, each time triggering Skill - Life Scourge, causing a large amount of true damage. If this couldn't be called invincible, what else could be called invincible?

At this moment, the golden skill, Seven-Shot Barrage, instantly became humble.

Seven-Shot Barrage: As a golden-grade skill, why is Phantom Sword Dance so amazing? Why is it so trash?

“It is indeed trash.”

Li Si felt deeply, so he chose to forget Seven-Shot Barrage. Sorry, Seven-Shot Barrage, you can't keep up with me anymore.

“Ding!”

“Congratulations! You have forgotten the skill: Seven-Shot Barrage (Golden).”

“Your current skill slot situation is: 9 / 11.”

For damage skills in the skill bar, Phantom Sword Dance and Sky-Piercing Blade Draw were enough. Phantom Sword Dance for single-target instant kills, Sky-Piercing Blade Draw for large-area AOE, used to fill the cooldown gap of Wild Arrow - Sky Strike. As for the remaining skill slots, he could just learn all passive skills.

Of course, he could also accept active skills like Great Teleportation Technique and Flash.

Immediately, Li Si reviewed his skill interface, saw Sacrifice for All Living Beings at Mythical max level, and immediately set his sights on the Chaotic Star City Treasure Vault again.

“If I sacrifice everything, will it be able to break through to True God max level?”

A true man does what he says, never hesitating. Li Si selected the eighteen-story treasure pagoda in front of him and activated Sacrifice for All Living Beings.

In an instant, endless gray mist enveloped the vault, beginning to absorb....

A moment later, the gray mist receded.

The Chaotic Star City Treasure Vault / eighteen-story high-rise building vanished into thin air.

“Ding!”

“Congratulations! Your skill, Sacrifice for All Living Beings (Mythical), has been upgraded to True God max level.”

“It worked!”

Li Si was overjoyed.

It actually leveled up to True God max level, but thinking about it, it made sense. This consumed the resources of a main city’s treasure vault; it would be strange if it couldn't advance.

【Sacrifice for All Living Beings max】

Quality: True God

Passive: HP Cap +20%, MP Cap +20%, Attack Cap +20%, Attack Speed Cap +20%, Movement Speed Cap +20%. (Upgraded to Supreme max, all attribute bonuses doubled)

Description: Sacrifices living beings to improve quality level and unlock attribute bonuses.

It added 20% to attack speed and movement speed.

Li Si’s attribute panel refreshed once again.

Attack Speed Gain: 225%.

Attack Speed: 8.78.

Movement Speed Gain: 227%.

Movement Speed: 143.2.

......

It became even more abnormal.

“Greetings, Prince.”

Alisa followed Li Si’s trail and arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion’s backyard.

Witnessing Li Si devouring the treasure vault with her own eyes, she didn’t say a word, but calmly introduced: “The City Lord’s Mansion’s assets include: one treasure vault, which is now gone. 1.3 billion gold coins, 142 houses, 87 shops, and 90,000 mu of farmland. These are the main assets; there are also some secondary jewels and calligraphy, which only have collection value.”

“Mm.”

Li Si nodded slowly, then said: “The shops will be used to expand Tianzi Number One, and the houses can serve as employee dormitories. The gold coins will be deposited into Tianzi Number One’s account. As for the City Lord’s Mansion’s taxes and farmland, you can arrange those as you see fit.”

“Yes.”

Alisa’s figure disappeared from the backyard.

Li Si’s lips curved upwards; being a hands-off boss truly felt good. Because he had his own matters, more important matters.

“Mythical equipment, here I come.”

He returned to Divine Smith Valley, walked towards the forging table, and slowly picked up the three pieces of equipment.

【battle star heavy mountain shield】 (Mythical)

Level: 1 / Knight Class

Armor +35

Magic Resist +35

HP +50,000

Damage Reduction +5%

Special Effect 【Heavy Mountain Like Water】: HP Cap +30%.

Active 【Block】: Blocking attacks with the shield can reduce 50% damage. (Multiplicative with other damage reductions)

Description: A mountain shield with dazzling starlight, possessing powerful HP and defense bonuses. Only a resolute Calamity Knight can wear it. Are you a peerlessly resolute Calamity Knight?

“Only Calamity Knights are qualified to wear shield-type equipment.”

Li Si happened to be a Calamity Knight, possessing the qualification to wear a shield. So he decisively equipped the battle star heavy mountain shield, his HP and defense soaring significantly, and continued to check the second piece of equipment.

【Instant Star Divine Speed Boots】 (Mythical)

Level: 1

Armor +12

Magic Resist +12

Movement Speed +10

Special Effect 【Divine Speed】: Movement Speed Cap +60%.

Description: Divine speed boots that can travel a thousand li in an instant. After equipping them, you will be the fastest man.

“.... Awesome.”

An extremely abnormal movement speed bonus.

Li Si decisively swapped them on, looking at the last piece of Mythical equipment.

【Chaotic Star Explosive Ring】 (Mythical)

Level: 1

Attack +100

Critical Chance +5%

Special Effect 【Explosive Strike】: Critical Damage +60%.
