Chapter 352: Reading the Book of the Abyss Again——
Until the consciousness regained consciousness from the chaos, until Luo Xiu opened his eyes again.
In that magnificent and ancient palace, the "Guardian of Falsehood" Amber is still guarding him.
"...Phew."
Luo Xiu breathed a long sigh of relief, stood up from the golden throne, and stretched his muscles.
He felt that the surging, almost primitive instinctive power was filling his limbs and bones, and the deep spirituality of the [Abyss] was like a river, rushing into and shaping his blood.
This power made him feel elated, and a strong desire to destroy or devour something emerged in his heart.
This is the fourth destiny of [Abyss]...
Luo Xiu thought to himself.
He clearly felt that there was something foreign mixed in his spirituality.
And at this time when he was just promoted - when the power of the fourth level of destiny in [Abyss] had not yet completely stabilized, Luo Xiu's ears were still filled with bewitching and persuasive whispers.
But these whispers from the [Abyss] are the same as the [Abyss] spirituality that tries to dominate itself. They are all wrapped up and isolated by the more majestic and more essential divine spirituality.
That is the [brilliant] spirituality - like a veil, more like a permeable membrane of some kind of "spiritual" essence.
Eliminating the influence of those bad qualities and only extracting their most original spiritual uses - this is the protection mechanism Luo Xiu established for himself with [Glory].
This is not only to prevent the power of the [Abyss] from causing oneself to lose control and fall, but also to prevent good or bad detection from the outside world - extraordinary beings below the sixth level of destiny cannot detect impure impurities in Luo Xiu's spirituality through "perception" , the same principle applies.
And now...
After soothing and guiding the deep spirituality in his body to stabilize, Luo Xiu opened the panel, and his eyes followed the [Abyss] fate column.
During the promotion, Luo Xiu received a new [Abyss] profession - "Demon Tutor", and at the same time, he also obtained three [Abyss] destiny skills "Blow into the River of Styx", "Erotic Bloodline", and "Demon Summoning" ", and a [Abyss] destiny skill "Devil Fusion".
Because the "Seventh Abyss" has not yet been truly opened, "Bathing into the River Styx" is temporarily unavailable.
However, "Demon Summoning" and "Evil Bloodline" can work immediately - the former will be used to summon and contract a real 'demon', while the latter will make the 'demon' not able to survive after being summoned. Attacking him can make him truly obedient to him.
This is a necessary order, and it is also the reason why Luo Xiu decided to wait until he was promoted to the fourth life path of [Abyss] before summoning demons even if he got the vacant contract slot of "God" - after Luo Xiu felt that he was in [Abyss] In the promotion plan of destiny, obtaining the skill of "evil bloodline" is indeed very crucial.
In his memory of his past life.
After the power of [Abyss] truly appeared, there were extraordinary people who were not destined to [Abyss], and obtained the ritual knowledge of summoning "Devil" through certain means, and tried to summon him.
As for the results, most of them are quite tragic——
Those pagans who are not believers in [The Abyss] have indeed summoned demons.
However, when those demons who were only low-level or middle-level demons were first summoned, they took advantage of the time when the summoners’ spirituality had just dried up and were still quite weak to attack them, and killed their summoners with quite cruel means. , and devoured their souls and took away their bodies.
For a time, the number of extraordinary beings whose bodies were taken away by the demons of the [Abyss] surged at a terrifying speed, which even led to a massive [World Mission] - [Pseudo Demon Hunting Battle]!
That is a task issued by the "Ring of Apocalypse" to all descendants.
Its mission is to hunt down all the demons that have entered the mortal world through the "summoning ritual" and usurped the bodies of their summoners.
And this is indeed a task that can only be completed by players - because under the circumstances at that time, the entire continent of Fanor, except for the saints who are at least the "fifth level of destiny" and above, can pass "perception". "In addition to the subtle differences between the spirituality of these disguised demons and the real extraordinary beings, only players with "panels" have the means to directly detect "disguised demons".
Luo Xiu in his previous life also participated in this massive hunting activity - he still clearly remembers the horrific scenes he saw during the "game" at that time, and now, these scenes Or it will become real.
"..."
Recalling these in his heart, Luo Xiu shook his head, patted his cheek, and cleared his mind.
Even if this may happen in the future... at least not now. Now I have more important things to do besides remembering.
Luo Xiu's eyes immediately fell on the table in front of him.
The dark and sinister book, the "Sacred Book of the Abyss", was quietly placed on the table.
The time has come.
Successfully promoted to the fourth level of [Abyss] is the opportunity to read the "Abyss Sacred Scripture" again.
Luo Xiu's hand slowly stretched out, and his fingers had lightly touched the black seal of the holy book.
The deep mist lingering and flowing on it immediately wrapped around it like silk mist, and he could even feel a faint suction on his fingertips.
This is something that was not seen when I opened the "Sacred Book of the Abyss" several times before... After promoting [Abyss] to the fourth level of destiny, perhaps even the resonance with the Book of Abyss has deepened slightly.
Even the strange murmurs that had just fallen silent in his ears started to resound the moment he touched the book of the abyss... Turning the spirituality of [Glory] to cut off these influences, Luo Xiu rubbed the cover with his fingers and opened it immediately.
Skipping the detailed but useless [Abyss] skills before the triple destiny, Luo Xiu quickly turned to the end of the record of the [Abyss] triple destiny skills, and turned a new page——
——Buzz!
In Luo Xiu's ears, the weird murmur immediately exploded, accompanied by some kind of drum-like throbbing, which made his spirit passively stand on the edge of trembling.
And in front of him - the brand new page that had just been opened was also covered and wrapped by the profound spirituality as black as ink, making it impossible to see the real content.
Something flooded into his mind like a brainworm, and new content popped up on Luo Xiu's panel at the same time——
【……】
【You looked directly at the taboo】
[Trigger "Divinity" immunity judgment]
[The minimum divinity requirement is "242", your divinity is "1168"...]
[Trigger "Resistance" saving throw]
[The minimum resistance requirement is "143", your resistance is "687"...]
[Successful exemption, immune to this mental pollution]
[...] The light and shadow on the panel floated, and the moment "successful exemption" appeared.
The drum-like restlessness gradually subsided, and the taboo infection soon disappeared.
Looking through the "Sacred Code of the Abyss", the fourth level of destiny and subsequent skills and knowledge are described. The attributes that need to be judged are no longer just "divinity", but two or more attributes.
But no matter what, the attribute determination requirements at the "fourth level of destiny" are easy for Luo Xiu to pass now.
He stared at the sacred scripture in front of him, and the content shrouded in profound spirituality gradually revealed itself like clouds opening and mist dispersing.
[The Soul of Extreme Evil (Abyss, lv.1): The extremely evil person can enter the palace of great sin. 】
[When you challenge a hostile target that is 5 levels higher than you and successfully kill the hostile target, you will receive an additional 50% base experience correction... At the same time, you will receive 10 points from "Hostile Target— The attribute value correction of the "highest attribute" (the upper limit of attribute correction is 0/200). 】
This is the first of many skills ranked in the fourth level of [Abyss], and it is also an advanced skill of Luo Xiu's existing skill "Erotic Soul".
It's just that the upper limit of attribute corrections that can be obtained has increased a lot, and the condition has changed from the original "defeat" to "killing"!
Without hesitation, Luo Xiu paid for his experience and learned the [Abyss] skill [Evil Soul].
The profound knowledge from the [Abyss] turned into an immaterial stream and poured into his mind, quickly adding an additional item to the [Skills] column on his panel.
For Luo Xiu, with his current level of 50th level, it is difficult to find enemies with levels higher than level 5 to kill...but this is not Luo Xiu's focus.
What he is more interested in is the newly obtained 50% additional base experience correction for kill rewards, plus the first two lower-level skills of [Evil Soul] [Corrosive Soul] and [Scorching Soul], he has already You can get an additional kill reward of up to 100%!
……
After successfully learning [Extremely Evil Soul], Luo Xiu then flipped through the "Sacred Scripture of the Abyss".
Page after page is still covered and blocked by the deep and dark spirituality, and his panel also shows new pollution checks again and again.
"Divinity" and "Strength" were judged, "Divinity" and "Perception" were judged, and even the three attributes of "Divinity", "Wisdom" and "Resistance" were judged together... Luo Xiu passed these tests smoothly, and Finally, three [Abyss] skills to be learned were selected.
【……】
[Abyss Skills: Extremely Evil Domain (lv.1, to be learned)]
[The Realm of Extreme Evil (Abyss, lv.1): The darkness pervades this place and will be named ‘Extreme Evil’. 】
【You have penetrated deeply into the origin of 'Profound'. You yourself are the incarnation of "evil". You have reached the extreme of "evil erosion" and can further try to create "field" skills. 】
This is an advanced skill of the existing skill [Darkest Realm], carrying more profound knowledge of the [Abyss] field.
【……】
[Abyss Skills: Extremely Evil Corrosion (lv.1, to be learned)]
[Extremely evil erosion ((Abyss, lv.1): Nether erosion spreads here and will be named ‘extremely evil’.]
[Master this technique, when you cause damage to the target, the spirituality of "eclipse" will erode everything. You can choose: You will ignore the target's "Defense Reduction" and "Shield" to a certain extent, and cause "Necrotic" attribute damage or source trauma to the target again according to a certain proportion of the damage caused; or you will accumulate a certain number of injuries. or damage, the target will be given a random negative effect that is difficult to purify or remove. 】
This is an auxiliary skill that can coordinate combat to achieve better results.
【……】
[Abyss Skills: Soul-Eating Eyes (lv.1, to be learned)]
[Soul-eating Eyes (Abyss, lv.1): You have understood the soul, controlled the soul, dominated the soul, and finally...devoured the soul. 】
[You gain the ability of "Soul Devouring", which allows you to absorb spirituality and even gain strength from the "soul" that you have completely controlled and dominated. If you devour the soul through the [Soul Devouring Eye], you will gain the equivalent of the attack power. Killing rewards 50% of the basic experience, and there is a small probability of obtaining the skills and skills mastered by the swallowed target, and reshaping them into the skills and skills of [Abyss]. 】
This is a functional skill, and it is also another advanced branch skill of [Soul Manipulator], which allows Luo Xiu to expand his use of "soul".
【……】
……
[Ultimately Evil Soul], [Ultimately Evil Domain], [Ultimately Evil Corrosion] and [Soul-Eating Eyes], these are the four [Abyss] skills that Luo Xiu chose to learn when he read the Abyss Book this time.
In addition to their own effects, for Luo Xiu - another important use of them is to invest in "skill creation". The [Abyss] domain skills and even the control skills are exactly what Luo Xiu lacks at this time, and he can try to make up for them through these newly acquired [Abyss] skills.
Later, at the level of the fourth life path of [Abyss], Luo Xiu no longer had any other technical knowledge that he urgently needed to learn in the "Abyss Sacred Code".
He then re-closed the "Sacred Code of the Abyss" and put it into his storage bracelet. Then, he stood up from the golden throne and walked out of the hall.
……
The moment you walk out of the hall, your field of vision becomes wider.
Luo Xiu saw hundreds of "Holy Abyss" apostles and thousands of their followers rushing back and forth, building various new buildings in full swing.
The "Holy Abyss" apostles he left behind in the royal court are now faithfully carrying out the tasks entrusted by the "Lord" - the public beta time is approaching. Luo Xiu has already assigned the task of repairing and constructing the Forgotten Royal Court in all aspects to accommodate the large number of "Adventors" who are coming.
Compared with the previous "internal beta", the number of players that the Forsaken Royal Court can now accommodate has tripled.
But this is still not enough - in Luo Xiu's plan, it will have to accommodate at least ten times more players than during the closed beta.
However, according to the construction period, the "open beta" will officially start in half a month, and the construction work on the Forgotten Royal Court should be smoothly implemented... At least judging from the momentum of the apostles' work, Luo Xiu is not worried about the final results of the construction.
……
Choosing to avoid the sight of the "apostles" as much as possible, Luo Xiu has gone to another altar located in the Forsaken Royal Court.
It did not belong to [Glory] like the previous "Altar of a Moment", nor did it even belong to any destiny. It was just a base made of obsidian, and a huge cage carved with obsidian on top.
There was nothing "imprisoned" in the huge cage - and this strange building was specially built by Luo Xiu at his special instruction to the apostles. It was an "altar" exclusively for Luo Xiu's use.
And the ceremony he will preside over will indeed use this obsidian cage——
He will preside over the ritual of summoning and contracting the "demon"!
