"This price is perfectly normal!"
His expression returned to normal only after the price of the enhanced dragon-patterned arm guards was revealed, since the two previous absurd enhancement conditions were simply beyond his capabilities.
"I earned a thousand points of divine blood energy from the Divine Emperor Family this time, and I also got three drops of secret realm blood from the Eternal Night dungeon last time. After that, I have two hundred and eighty-seven points left. In addition to other scattered divine blood energy, I now have a total of one thousand four hundred and thirty points. I don't need these ten points!"
Jiang Yuan waved his hand, and the Holy Spirit Stone and Divine Blood Energy were poured into the Dragon Pattern Armguard, activating the Primary Enhancement Technique.
The enhancement process was not as long as expected. About five minutes later, a red light emanated from the dragon-patterned arm guard.
"Goodness, please don't think it's just the ninth rank!"
Jiang Yuan nervously completed the appraisal of the dragon-patterned arm guard.
The Void-level Dragon Pattern Armguard, Quality: Perfect, possesses powerful defense and additional attack power. It is an armguard that combines offense and defense, and has a built-in active soul skill - Enhanced Iron Bones.
Strengthen Iron Bones: Consumes Holy Spirit Stones to activate the Dragon Pattern Armguard, granting the user invincibility for three seconds (unbreakable except by divine intervention), with a three-day cooldown.
"hiss!"
Jiang Yuan felt the information was somewhat unreal; the enhanced dragon-patterned arm guards were a significant change from what they had been before.
Not to mention the enhanced defense and offensive capabilities, what surprised him most was that the weapon spirit skill Iron Bones had changed its name, from the previous Iron Bones to the current Enhanced Iron Bones.
Don't underestimate the change of just two words; the concept of Iron Bones has completely changed. The previous Iron Bones only granted invincibility within a small area, while the current Enhanced Iron Bones grants complete invincibility to the entire body. The two are not comparable at all.
Take the previous attack he received from Qiao Ling's Feathered Spirit attack, for example. If it were the enhanced Iron Bone, he could have survived unscathed instead of being blasted half to death and needing a living body for treatment.
"Is this enhancement technique really that overpowered?" Jiang Yuan felt like he had struck gold. He didn't even need to test it to know that the enhanced Iron Bones would be much more secure, since one provides full-body protection while the other only provides invincibility in a small area on the arm guards.
"It's only at the beginner level. The highest enhancement level for a beginner enhancement technique is the Spirit level, and the enhanced object itself needs to have excellent potential, otherwise it can't even be enhanced to the Spirit level!" Tianyan explained the knowledge to Jiang Yuan without reservation.
"Three-day cooldown, so can I use the Elementary Reset to reset the Elementary Enhancement Technique?" Jiang Yuan was overjoyed when he mentioned the Elementary Reset; such an enhancement technique was practically a bug.
"Why don't you say you're flying to the sky by stepping on your right foot with your left?" Tianyan suddenly mocked.
Jiang Yuan: "..."
"Whether it's the basic reset or the basic enhancement technique, these are the most direct manifestations of the battlefield rules. They are on the same level and cannot be affected by other rules!" Tianyan finally explained to Jiang Yuan.
"So that's how it is. Does that mean I have to wait patiently for the cooldown before using the basic enhancement spell?" Jiang Yuan was somewhat dissatisfied. He should use this enhancement spell more often to avoid having a bunch of useless skills around him.
The fact that Tianyan didn't speak meant that it acquiesced.
"Well, I'm already quite satisfied with how well it turned out!" Jiang Yuan stretched and tried to get up.
However, a loud clanging sound caught his attention.
"Oh right, and there's also the skill ball!"
Jiang Yuan looked at the last gray bead with a bored expression. This was the skill orb given to him by the middle-aged Holy Spirit, which was supposedly some kind of bullshit divine skill.
However, after examining it, he realized that it was not a divine skill at all, but a complete scam.
Oni Slash, unique skill, quality: Mythical, ability: sacrifice life to gain the power of the Oni God, the strength of the Oni God depends on the amount of life sacrificed.
Yes, it is indeed a mythical quality skill with uniqueness, but its ability is not impressive. It requires sacrificing one's life to unleash the Demon Slash, meaning that every time one uses the Demon Slash, it's like risking one's life.
He seriously doubted whether his lifespan of over a hundred years could withstand the squandering of a single demon slash.
"You guys are really ruthless to use this crappy skill to trick me!"
Jiang Yuan grumbled and cursed, but his actions were quite honest. He crushed the skill orb and directly learned the Demon Slash.
Everyone needs some means of survival. If you really encounter a situation where you are doomed, taking down your opponent with the Demon Slayer sword is a pretty good option.
"If it weren't for stalling for time while waiting for Tianlong and the others to arrive, I wouldn't have bothered to take away your crappy skills!" Jiang Yuan muttered. He really hadn't intended to take them away before, but the situation forced him to use this method to buy time.
"Ding! Fill in the mark of the deceased?"
A sudden notification sound startled Jiang Yuan. He suspiciously checked where the mark of the dead needed to be filled, and what he saw shocked him.
"It can't be such a coincidence!"
Jiang Yuan's eyes were strange; the source that needed to fill the mark of the dead was this Ghost Slash.
"What's going on! Isn't it said that only by sacrificing lives can one obtain the power of ghosts and gods? Why is it necessary to fill in the mark of the dead?"
Despite his doubts, Jiang Yuan still chose to fill the gaps. One hundred marks of the dead disappeared, and what appeared in his body was a strange, restless power.
"this……"
He was a little confused. Having used the skill so many times, he knew exactly what this strange power was. Wasn't this the Demon Slash he had just learned?
"What the hell? Has the Demon Slayer already been filled?"
Jiang Yuan hesitated. What if this strike cost him his life? The amount of life loss was immeasurable; even if Ghost Slash secretly took away a portion of his life, he would have no way of knowing.
"No, we can't take the risk!"
After considering for a while, Jiang Yuan decided to keep the Ghost Slash, which had already been prepared, deep within his body. After all, no one knew how much of his life force would be consumed by unleashing this Ghost Slash, and he could not take the risk unless it was a matter of life and death.
After putting away his things, Jiang Yuan calmed himself down. Tianlong and the others hadn't finished packing yet, and he didn't want to wait any longer, so he began to refine the power of the divine blood.
The divine blood power left over from the previous battlefield is not part of the same system as the power on the current battlefield, but this does not prevent him from absorbing and utilizing it.
After being modified by the Heart Nourishing Technique, his refining of divine blood power became much faster, with efficiency more than ten times higher than before. This was a terrifying refining speed.
After consuming a bronze-level divine blood power, Jiang Yuan's divine energy steadily increased by five points, reaching 455.
"The ninth rank is just around the corner!"
Jiang Yuan wore a relaxed smile, unaware that what seemed like an imminent future would soon become an unattainable dream within the Tomb of the War God.
"Little Jiangjiang, are you ready? The sniffing dogs and the snake-listening dogs have rejoined the team, and it'll be about time for us to leave this place!"
Yu Tu's voice came from outside the door.
"Wait a minute, I'll be right there!" Jiang Yuan immediately snapped out of his cultivation state.
