Chapter 321: Life and Death Battle (Inferior)
A flash of black light passed by, indicating that Xia Lin had already activated the trick of cheating the heavens and changing his fate! The fraud points were completely reset to zero, and Xia Lin no longer had any tricks to cheat the heavens and change his fate.
At the moment when the method of deceiving the heaven and changing fate took effect, Xia Lin immediately did two things at once.
He waved his right hand, and a God-given source of essence was opened.
The light flashed for less than a second, and the prompt sounded in my ears...
However, Xia Lin ignored the prompt tone in his ears.
He is doing more important things.
"Buy back the cooldown reset and the Uncertain Canteen of Evil Shadow."
The cooldown reset skill is very cheap and can be bought and sold at will.
The Uncertain Canteen of Erying is one of the skill components of Erying's recipe book.
Although this skill was combined by Xia Lin, it still remains in Erying's recipe book and can be bought back by Xia Lin.
[Evil Shadow's Uncertain Canteen (Racial Heritage Level): Active skill, exclusive to the Uncertain Shadow. Consumes 1,000 points of spirit. After opening, you can choose one of ten random skills you have ever had to replace a designated skill of the Twin Evil Shadows! This skill has a cooldown of 3 days! ]
The price of the foundation-level Uncertain Canteen is 15 evolution points.
It’s a bit expensive, but it’s just a drop in the bucket for Xia Lin right now.
In the blink of an eye, the cooldown reset and Shadow's Uncertain Canteen appeared in the second and third slots of the regular skill bar.
The first column contains the probability of non-existence.
Without saying anything, Xia Lin directly activated Eying's Uncertain Canteen!
[Evil Shadow's Uncertain Canteen is in effect! 】
[You have recovered the following skills:]
[One: Five rounds of world-devouring magic! ]
【two……】
There is no need to look further.
The first option is Xia Lin’s must-have option!
Compared to the 372 evolution points needed to purchase five rounds of World-Devouring Magic, this operation saves a lot of money!
This is what Xia Lin came up with, a way to circumvent fair trade and recipe exploitation.
Under the effect of cheating fate, this method is completely feasible! The shadow of the scale flashed by.
Xia Lin sold the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man from Eying to make room for the Five Wheels of World-Devouring Magic.
As soon as he thought of it, Xia Lin took the Five-Round World-Devouring Magic Skill from Erying and put it in the fourth column of his own regular skills.
When the prompt for the unstable mutation to take effect sounds, just choose not to mutate.
Just after the regular skill bars one, two, three, and four were occupied by the probability of non-existence, the cooldown reset, the uncertain canteen of Evil Shadow, and the five-wheel world-devouring magic, Xia Lin heard a familiar prompt tone.
[The probability of non-existence takes effect! ]
[Your skill: Shadow's Uncertain Canteen has completed its cooldown! ]
"open!"
Without saying a word, he started up Eying's Uncertain Canteen again.
[Evil Shadow's Uncertain Canteen is in effect! 】
[You have recovered the following skills:]
[One: Nirvana of Heaven and Earth! ]
Cheating the heavens and changing fate is so awesome! No wonder Xia Lin kept staring at the Fraud Evil God.
Retrieve the Nirvana of Heaven and Earth and place it in the regular skill column 5.
But this time, Xia Lin did not trigger the non-existent probability.
It doesn't matter.
He also has a lot of basic-level reset CD props in stock. Although these things are expensive, Xia Lin is indeed very wealthy at the moment.
[Evil Shadow's Uncertain Canteen is in effect! 】
[You have recovered the following skills:]
[1: The Furnace of Transformation! ]
There is no doubt that you have to choose.
The three skills of Five Wheels of World-Devouring Magic, Nirvana of Heaven and Earth, and Furnace of Transformation are supporting skills. Either you don't want any of them, or you have to select all of them.
[The probability of non-existence takes effect! ]
This saves another reset CD item.
"open!"
[Evil Shadow's Uncertain Canteen is in effect! 】
[You have recovered the following skills:]
[One: All kinds of martial arts! ]
Still a must.
The significance of this skill has been mentioned. It is of great help to the black and red form, and it is very expensive.
[The probability of non-existence takes effect! ]
[Evil Shadow's Uncertain Canteen is in effect! 】
[You have recovered the following skills:]
[One: Eighteen Styles of the Evil Sword! ]
Select and place in regular skill slot 8.
As a result, Xia Lin only had one empty skill slot left...
[The probability of non-existence takes effect! ]
[Evil Shadow's Uncertain Canteen is in effect! 】
[You have recovered the following skills:]
[One: Supreme Sword Body! ]
Select and place in regular skill slot 9.
In this way, all nine skill columns are completed!
1. Probability of non-existence, 2. Cooldown reset, 3. Uncertain Canteen of Evil Shadow, 4. Five-wheeled World-Devouring Magic, 5. Nirvana of Heaven and Earth, 6. Furnace of Transformation, 7. All kinds of martial arts, 8. Eighteen Styles of Evil Sword, 9. Supreme Sword Body.
But that's not enough.
Not enough skill bars.
The shadow of the scale flashed by.
"Selling non-existent probability and cooldown reset!"
Without these two skills, the worst that can happen is that you can use the foundation-level CD reset item to withstand it.
Compared to this, the two empty skill slots and what Xia Lin is going to do next are obviously much more important! [Eye Shadow's Uncertain Canteen is in effect!]
[You have recovered the following skills:]
[One: Bury the living! ]
Select and place in regular skill slot 8.
In this way, all of Black Star's skills that were meaningful to Xia Lin fell into Xia Lin's hands.
The cost is much cheaper than using evolution points to attack it.
At this moment, the effect of deceiving the heaven and changing fate has only been effective for 30 seconds!
The shadow of the scale flashed again.
"Sell Erying's Uncertain Canteen!"
Yes, Xia Lin simply sold Erying's Uncertain Canteen...
The regular skill bar is freed again, and skill bar 8 and skill bar 9 are all empty.
Xia Lin calmed down, picked up a skill crystal with his left hand, and crushed it.
[You have acquired the skill: Thirst for Blood. ]
[Thirst (S level): Passive skill. Your overall attributes are increased by 10%, but this skill will slightly affect your sanity.]
[Unstable mutation takes effect! ]
[Your skill: Thirst for Blood, mutates into: Killing Form! ]
[Killing Form (Racial Heritage Level): Active skill. After activation, your all attributes will increase tenfold, greatly improving your combat instincts! This skill lasts for 10 minutes, with a cooldown of 3 days! ]
This is the charm of deceiving fate and unstable mutation!
I can buy high-priced skills in a recipe book - this highlights certainty.
But I can also bet on skill mutations - this highlights the random mechanism of Uncertain Shadow! "Keep the mutation!"
Keep one skill first and place it in the regular skill column 8. In this way, there is only the last skill left in the empty skill column.
Then Xia Lin continued to gamble! But he didn't gamble on high-level mutation skills in exchange for evolution points.
He already has enough evolution points.
He wants to gamble on his skill combination! …
The skill slots are limited, this is an immutable law.
In order to maintain the lower limit, Xia Lin hid ten impossible-to-use skills in the constant skill column - if he used them, it would destroy Xia Lin's foundation.
So he can only operate in the 9 regular skill bars.
Using the Uncertain Canteen to retrieve Black Star's skills first was also a way to maintain the lower limit.
Black Star's skills had greatly improved Xia Lin's combat power, so there was no way he wouldn't get them back.
Anyway, Xia Lin felt that after this wave of operations, this round of deceiving fate and changing destiny was worth the money.
But Xia Lin is greedy.
He also has a knack for greed.
Using the only two remaining skill slots to strive for skill combinations is like looking for the upper limit!
I don’t know if I can become as greedy as Xia Lin, but for now I will believe in cheating God and changing my fate.
In the first move, Xia Lin greedily reached the killing form.
Scanning the skill panel, Xia Lin did not choose to sell it - because he felt that this skill was quite compatible with Black Star's skill set in the current regular skill column, and it might be possible to trigger a skill combination.
Crush another skill crystal.
[You have acquired the skill: Nine Defeats Nirvana! ]
This is the skill Xia Lin obtained from Tao Jing.
[Unstable mutation takes effect! ]
[Your skill, Nine Defeats Nirvana, changes to: Nirvana Rebirth! ]
[Nirvana Rebirth (Racial Heritage Level): Passive skill. With this skill, you will be exempt from 50% of the rebirth penalty! ]
Xia Lin raised his eyebrows, finding it interesting.
It was the first time he heard that there were skills that reduced the resurrection penalty in the professional system! No problem, keep the mutation and put it in the regular skill column 9.
In this way, except for one skill bar of Evil Shadow, Xia Lin's skill bar is full.
But, he still has one more chance! The mechanism of skill combination is like this... As long as the conditions are met in the next skill, the skill combination mechanism will still be triggered!
Sit quietly for three seconds.
The effects of all the skill crystals in his hand automatically appeared in Xia Lin's mind.
——Long before this, he had memorized the levels and effects of almost all the skill crystals on him, all for this moment! The skill combination seemed random, but there was logic to it.
This involves the issue of skill compatibility. Xia Lin doesn't understand it all, but he has a vague idea of it.
After three seconds, Xia Lin immediately reached out and took out a God-given source and a skill crystal.
He crushed it with both hands at the same time, and two prompt sounds fell into Xia Lin's ears one after another.
[You have acquired the skill: Praise pain! ]
[Praise Pain (SSS level): Passive skill, exclusive skill for limit breakers, limit breaking skill. You can draw nutrients from every pain and use it to break the limit! ]
[Unstable mutation takes effect! ]
[Your skill, Praise Pain, changes into: Man-Made Life and Death Tribulation! ]
[Artificial Life and Death Tribulation (Racial Heritage Level): Passive skill, exclusive skill for limit breakers, limit breaking skill! Every time you are seriously injured and dying, if you can successfully survive, this skill will provide you with a large number of limit breaking attributes and a small amount of racial value! Note: The so-called serious injury and dying must be caused by the enemy or by accident. You cannot trigger the effect of this skill through self-harm or through the hands of a target without killing intention! ]
When Xia Lin was trying out skill combinations before, he realized one thing - one of the triggering conditions for the skill combination might be a skill that could break the limit.
Therefore, at this moment, Xia Lin specifically chose a skill to break the limit.
However, the prompt sound for successfully triggering the skill combination did not sound.
Instead, the reward of God-given source essence came first.
[You have opened a God-given source. ]
[You get a reward: your skill weighting is increased by half a level! ]
[Note: The skill weighting provided by the God-given Essence cannot exceed one level, and the weighting effect will randomly fall on a certain skill of yours, and you cannot choose it yourself! ]
This reward has an upper limit and can only be applied to the same skill twice at most, and there is no way to independently specify the weighted skills.
But this is still the most awesome reward in the Tianci blind box, and this is the first time Xia Lin has triggered it.
The reminder sounded again.
【Random selection completed.】
[Your skill: Nirvana of Heaven and Earth gains a boost! ]
Xia Lin frowned.
It's useless.
Skill-weighted bonuses, ideally best placed on attack/defense skills.
Because these skills will often be competed for authority.
For auxiliary skills that work on yourself, permissions don’t matter at all - for example, universal use, energy conversion, etc.
The reason why Xia Lin is not in a hurry to upgrade the levels of these skills is because these skills do not require very high authority judgment.
The same goes for the Heaven and Earth Nirvana skill.
However, just when Xia Lin was feeling a little regretful, the third prompt sound appeared.
[Skill combination conditions achieved! ]
Xia Lin's eyes lit up and he immediately became energetic!
[Based on the Five-wheel Devouring World Magic Art and supplemented by the Nirvana of Heaven and Earth, your skills include the Nirvana of Heaven and Earth, the Furnace of Transformation, the Supreme Sword Body, Burial, Killing Form, Nirvana Rebirth, and Man-made Life and Death Tribulation. You can achieve a skill combination! ]
[You will receive: Life and Death Battle (Inferior) (Racial Heritage Level). ]
[Note: After selecting the combination, the seven skills of Heaven and Earth Nirvana, Transformation Furnace, Supreme Sword Body, Burial, Killing Form, Nirvana Rebirth, and Artificial Life and Death Tribulation will disappear. At the same time, your skill: Five Wheels of Devouring World Magic Art must be retained in the future. If this skill disappears, then Life and Death Battle (Inferior) will also disappear! ]
[Note: Life and Death Battle (Inferior) appears because the Heaven and Earth Nirvana authority is increased by half a level, but after completing the skill combination, this skill will no longer receive the effect bonus of this authority increase! ]
【Combination?】
Xia Lin: “…”
No, if you want to combine skills, then just combine skills. If you put a (inferior) at the end, what does that mean?
It was this word "inferior" that made Xia Lin hesitate for a moment.
But soon, Xia Lin simply said: "Confirm the combination."
He chose to believe in deceiving fate!
I also choose to believe in the combined seven racial foundation skills! Light suddenly flashed from Xia Lin's body. At this moment, Xia Lin felt that time had come to a standstill.
The soul was automatically beaten out of the body, and the seven skill light balls of Heaven and Earth Nirvana, Transformation Furnace, Supreme Sword Body, Burial, Killing Form, Nirvana Rebirth, and Artificial Life and Death Tribulation began to rotate, entangle, and merge based on the five rounds of Devouring World Magic Art! After an unknown period of time, when Xia Lin's soul returned to its place, the skill combination was complete! [You have obtained the skill: Life and Death Battle (Inferior). ]
[Life and Death Battle (Inferior) (Racial Heritage Level): Passive skill, limit-breaking skill. Any permanent negative effects of resurrection items and skills will be converted into temporary effects for you, lasting for ten days. When you are resurrected and the negative effects disappear, your racial value and basic attributes will be permanently increased by 10%! Note: Your death must be caused by the enemy or an accident. You cannot trigger the effect of this skill by committing suicide or by the hands of a target without killing intention! ]
Xia Lin was stunned on the spot.
He had never thought that there would be this type of limit-breaking skill under the professional system!
Die and be reborn, the more you die, the stronger you become, and the stronger you become! Isn't this pure cheating!? ...
But when Xia Lin thought about it carefully, he immediately realized the limitations of this skill.
"It doesn't seem as strong as I imagined."
Time is an issue.
Only after ten days of negative effects are over can you get limit-breaking attributes and racial values, which means that you cannot quickly brush up on attributes.
Not being able to commit suicide or die at the hands of a non-hostile target is an even greater restriction.
But no matter how many restrictions there are, you can't stop it from increasing attributes and racial values by percentage - this limit-breaking logic is the strongest point of this skill, and it is also the point that Xia Lin feels is the most shameless!
The stronger you are, the greater the increase this skill can bring.
This will be the most direct and violent snowball!
"Why is this skill bound to the Five-Wheel World Devouring Magic Art?"
"Is it because the basic skills include Heaven and Earth Nirvana and Transformation Furnace?"
"And what about my resurrection skill? Why is my resurrection skill gone?"
“I don’t understand…”
Life and Death Battle (Inferior) does not provide direct resurrection times...
"And this skill has the word 'inferior' in it... it means it's a fake. So how powerful is the genuine one?"
"It can't be that they can revive without any damage, and after resurrection, their racial attributes will be doubled, and they can also use suicide to improve their attributes, right? That's too perverted."
As he thought about it, Xia Lin was amused by his own thoughts.
That's too open...
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
Because time is precious right now.
Before I knew it, a full minute had passed.
Quickly open the attribute list and look at your general skill column.
There are 9 regular skill bars, but as the skill combination is completed, only four are left, leaving five vacant.
Five rounds of world-devouring magic, myriad martial arts, eighteen styles of evil sword, life-and-death battle (inferior).
The more empty skill bars there were, the more convenient it would be for Xia Lin to continue betting on skill combinations - of course, Xia Lin never stopped pinching the God-given source essence from beginning to end.
It's nothing more than trying two things at once.
Time is long yet short.
When the effect of deceiving the heaven and changing fate ended, Xia Lin immediately stopped what he was doing and breathed a long sigh of relief.
“The gains are not small, but they are mainly concentrated in the first half.”
It may be that during the period when deceiving fate and changing destiny is in effect, certain laws of conservation of luck are also followed.
After obtaining all the skills of Black Star and combining them to fight the Life and Death Battle (Inferior), Xia Lin’s subsequent gains were not as big a surprise as before.
Picking up the remaining skill crystals on the ground, Xia Lin opened the attribute panel, and his own attributes came into view.
【Xia Lin】
[Level: 9]
[Occupation: Uncertain Shadow]
[Racial value: 201]
[Basic attributes: 4.8y]
These basic data have not changed.
[Evolution points: 6739 (originally 2688)]
In fact, the evolution point rewards are not considered high-end rewards in the Tianci blind box.
Xia Lin opened a lot of...
But as the saying goes, the most suitable one is the best.
With the recipe book in hand, Xia Lin's varied fighting styles are destined to consume a large amount of evolution points. The more of this thing the better.
In addition, there are hundreds of heritage-level equipment and props, and there is no need to describe them one by one. Most of them are useless, but they can definitely be sold at a high price.
The real change lies in skills.
There are slight changes to the ten skills in the constant skill column.
After opening the God-given source essence, Xia Lin offered four more authority-enhancing reward items.
And with the blessing of luck, the result of random assignment made Xia Lin smile harder than AK! Random combination (God-given source quality authority +1)! +1 means that the random combination has benefited from the God-given source quality authority twice! East Wind Master (God-given source quality authority +1)! This main combat skill also benefited from the authority improvement effect twice!
In addition, he also opened a reward called skill upgrade in the God-given source, which can upgrade any skill to the racial heritage level.
Xia Lin first improved the ergonomics.
As a result, the level of ergonomics was upgraded from mutation to racial heritage.
[Ergonomics (Racial Heritage Level): Active skill. Consume a small amount of mental energy to merge with any item, equipment, or other inanimate objects, gaining related characteristics, and even changing one's own form!]
There are only two changes in the description.
One is the level, which has changed from mutation to racial heritage level.
One is to consume different amounts of mental energy, which turns into consuming a tiny amount of mental energy.
The upgrade has reduced the cost of this skill.
It was just that Xia Lin had not tried the effect before due to time constraints. Now, after a simple try, he was surprised to find that the consumption was greatly reduced!
If the original consumption is 100, then the current consumption becomes 1.
One percent.
In this way, Xia Lin's consumption in the state of the borderland planet can be reduced.
Well, having the Spirit Tide in hand doesn't seem to mean much... But Xia Lin has obsessive-compulsive disorder, and the ten skills in the constant skill column must all be at the racial heritage level to look good.
Speaking of this, of course, we cannot forget the remaining two low-level skills: omnipotence and energy conversion.
With good luck, Xia Lin triggered the skill upgrade reward more than once.
This allowed him to upgrade his omnipotence and energy conversion to the racial foundation level without spending any evolution points.
This time, all the skills in the constant skill column are of the foundation level.
[Universal (Racial Heritage Level): Passive skill, Uncertain Shadow occupation skill. This skill can only be placed in the constant skill column! With this skill, you can ignore occupation restrictions and use the exclusive skills and occupational talents of other occupations. ]
[Note: Since you do not have the relevant professional talents, you cannot use the professional talents of other professions, and can only use the professional skills of other professions. ]
From S-level to racial heritage level, the improvement of all-purpose skills is nothing...
Because Xia Lin is missing relevant components.
Xia Lin only just realized that this skill was actually a supporting skill for a certain mechanism of the Uncertain Shadow that he was not aware of.
"It makes sense when you think about it. Uncertain Shadow is unpredictable. If it can use the skills of other professions, there is no reason why it can't use the talents of other professions."
Thinking of this, Xia Lin suddenly remembered the Unified World Core given to him by the Warrior and Chaoxing.
A rather dangerous thought arose in Xia Lin's mind, but was suppressed by him.
"Don't think so much uselessly..."
Keep looking.
[Energy Conversion (Racial Heritage Level): Passive skill. You can convert your mental power into any type of energy you have ever seen! The conversion consumption ratio is 1:1. You can freely try to combine different energy types according to your will to create new energy types!
Note: There are risks in trying. Completely conflicting energy types may cause explosions, energy backlash, etc. Please be careful. 】
Compared to ergonomics and versatility, this skill change is the real change! (End of this chapter)
