169: Chapter 169: The Surprise of the Max-Level Mythic Quality Skill, [Soul Leap]!

"You have killed the Rank 55 mythical level BOSS [Owner of the Dark Domain · Void Realm Monarch], and you have completed the Hell difficulty clearance of the [Abyss Core]."

"The average Rank of the team members is 15 Ranks lower than the final BOSS, additional evaluation significantly increased."

"Clearance time is under 20 minutes, additional evaluation significantly increased."

"First time killing a mythical level BOSS across Ranks, you may choose two drops as additional gains."

"First time killing a mythical level BOSS across two Ranks, you may designate one item not higher than epic-grade as an additional drop output in the normal mode of this Dungeon."

"Your team has achieved the limit-level clearance condition for this Dungeon, and all drop outputs for this Dungeon are permanently increased by 100%."

"Limit broken, reborn, Professional Rank cap increased."

"You have gained a Heavenly Dao-Grade attribute: Critical Hit Rate +1%, Evasion Rate +1%. Current cumulative bonus is: Critical Hit Rate +5%, Evasion Rate +5%."

"As the Professional who first activated this attribute, the effect is doubled."

Limit-level evaluation, achieved in one go!

Zhang Jian punched the air.

The continuous stacking of Heavenly Dao-Grade attributes also gave him a sense of confidence.

And the next prompt made his eyes light up.

"After exiting the Dungeon, you can obtain an SSS+++ level evaluation and choose three drops as additional gains."

"First time killing a mythical level BOSS across Ranks, you may choose three drops as additional gains."

"First time killing a mythical level BOSS across two Ranks, you may designate one item not higher than epic-grade as an additional drop output in the normal mode of this Dungeon."

A total of five additional gains!

Zhang Jian swallowed hard.

This wasn't just as simple as getting a few more items.

The one he just killed was a mythical level BOSS!

He flipped through the previous drop prompts.

Sure enough.

Two mythical level skill books.

One increased Physique, and one increased block effect.

Both were passive types!

While Zhang Jian was delighted, he naturally added them all to the sequence of additional gains.

There was also a mythical level weapon.

It looked like a torch.

[Will of Fire · Prairie Fire Seed]

Quality: mythical level

Rank Requirement: 70

Spell Attack Power +1,500,000

Mental Energy +500,000

Spell Attack Power +50%

Attack Range +50%

Fire-type skill effects enhanced by 100%

[Will of Fire]: Can designate one fire-type skill and improve its quality.

[Divine-Grade Simple]: Reduces Rank requirement by 15.

This weapon originally required Rank 70 to equip, but with the [Divine-Grade Simple] effect, it could be equipped at Rank 55.

This was an extremely rare attribute.

It meant that during the Second Job Change stage.

When everyone else could only use epic-grade weapons at best, he could use a mythical level weapon in advance.

And for Wei Donglai, he had the Heavenly Dao reward effect of [Over-Rank Armament] which had been upgraded twice.

He could equip it 20 Ranks early.

When he took the weapon from Zhang Jian's hand, he knelt down directly.

"Thank you Brother Jian, you are my foster father from now on!"

Kicking the treasure-obsessed Wei Donglai away, Zhang Jian continued to organize his gains.

Besides these three mythical level items.

There were also a full four Rank 55 epic-grade equipment pieces and weapons, and six epic-grade skill books.

He didn't care too much about equipment and weapons anymore.

He carefully selected from the five epic-grade skill books.

He took out two passive types and two attack types, and placed them in the additional drop output options.

Finally.

When he emerged from the Dungeon.

Zhang Jian already had four passive mythical level skill books in his hands.

And four passive, four attack epic-grade skill books.

Amidst the visions in the sky, the nine of them stepped onto the stairs prepared for them by the Heavenly Dao.

Bathing in the warm golden light, feeling the subtle changes in their bodies.

Zhang Jian took the opportunity to slot the two mythical level passive skills into the positions he had long prepared.

The original epic-grade [Soul Conversion] skill gradually faded away.

Following that.

A new burst of seven-colored light erupted.

[Soul Leap]!

mythical level passive skill!

Zhang Jian couldn't wait to start operating it.

"You consumed 5 million experience points, [Soul Leap] upgraded to Level 1."

"You consumed 10 million experience points, [Soul Leap] upgraded to Level 2."

...

"You consumed 98.415 billion experience points, [Soul Leap] upgraded to Level 10."

Consuming nearly 150 billion experience points, Zhang Jian directly upgraded this skill to Level 10, which was the max level for mythical level.

Such an experience expenditure, let alone a Professional of his Rank.

Even for an old-school powerhouse like Hai Mengen who had reached the third job change Realm for many years, it was a considerable burden.

Although after the third job change, the maximum quality of skills that could be learned was raised to mythical level.

But Professionals with the financial resources to learn mythical level skills were one in a hundred.

And among them.

Those who could upgrade their skills, let alone reach the max level, were even rarer.

Take Hai Mengen as an example; the experience he currently needed to upgrade was 322.71 million.

If he were to kill monsters of the same Rank individually, he would need a full 17,350 of them.

Even for the most powerful profession, capable of easily killing monsters of the same Rank.

It was not something that could be done overnight.

But such an experience consumption could only upgrade a mythical level skill to Level 4.

Level 5 required a consumption of 405 million.

The sixth level required 1.215 billion.

Each level increased by three times the amount.

Let alone Hai Mengen, even many Saint-level existences above Rank 90 would need long-term accumulation.

It was only because Zhang Jian relied on the bonuses from various entries and his overwhelming advantage from his superior strength.

Otherwise, even if someone else were given a mythical level skill, they could only sigh in despair.

Since upgrading was so difficult, the improvements would naturally not be bad.

And the final attributes left Zhang Jian stunned.

[Soul Leap] (mythical level)

Lv10 / 10

Consumes current upgrade experience to exchange for 1 point of Mental Energy. For every 100 points accumulated, the experience cost doubles.

Current level exchangeable point limit: 0 / 3000 (+15000) / 9000 (+45000) points.

Max-level trait:

[Control Resistance]: For every 100 Mental Energy points increased, additionally increase 1% control resistance; for every 1000 Mental Energy points increased, increase 1% chance to completely immune control-type skills; when you are in a control-type state, every 100 Mental Energy can reduce the duration by 0.1 seconds, which can break through the limit value of not being lower than 0.3 seconds.

[Limit Breakthrough]: Can break through the limit value of not being higher than 90% control resistance, can break through the limit value of not being higher than 30% immune control chance; your final Mental Energy cap is increased by 100% (+500%); when you are in a control-type state, the duration reduction by Mental Energy can break through the limit value of not being lower than 0.3 seconds.

(Upgrade entry quality still needs: Currently unable to continue upgrading)
