Chapter 989: The situation at the third rank
Sweat was forming on Su Xiao's forehead. His chewing muscles were tense, and a red light could be seen in his pupils.
— Su Xiao suddenly muttered, but was immediately stunned.
Even if he wanted to kill someone, he would never mutter that person's name to himself.
He glanced at the skeleton out of the corner of his eye. It was already the size of a basin and was grinning fiercely at Su Xiao.
Su Xiao immediately forced the devouring core to stop, even though his entire body didn't seem to want to stop there.
The devouring core could indeed continue to filter the energy, but Su Xiao himself was severely restricted. In addition, such abilities couldn't be upgraded to a high level in such a short period of time. This rule worked especially well for strong abilities like Qing Gang Yin.
After stopping the core, Su Xiao glanced at the essence of the resurrecting dragon. She was still full of vitality. Although the energy in the crystal was very powerful, it couldn't resist being absorbed by Su Xiao.
At a rough estimate, Su Xiao was able to absorb about a third of the energy in the crystal, which surprised him a little.
He thought he had absorbed almost half of it.
While he was absorbing this energy, Heaven kept sending him notifications, but he ignored them, but now that he was done absorbing it, he decided to see what he could achieve.
[Qing Gang Yin's skill has been upgraded to level 34.]
[Due to the intake of a large amount of pure life energy, your health has been increased by 50 units.]
[Qing Gang Yin's skill has been upgraded to level 35.]
[Qing Gang Yin's skill has been upgraded to level 36.]
[Due to the intake of a large amount of pure life energy, the health recovery rate per minute increased by 5 units.]
[Qing Gang Yin's skill has been upgraded to level 37.]
[Qing Gang Yin's skill has been upgraded to level 38.]
[Qing Gang Yin's skill has been upgraded to level 39.]
[Due to the intake of a large amount of pure life energy, the body's defense was increased by 4 points, and the resistance to abnormal conditions increased by 3%.]
Qing Gang Yin's energy improved by 9 levels at a time, from level 30, she went straight to 39.
With each increase in Qing Gang Yin's energy level, it took 2 times more energy to upgrade than last time. If the transition from level 30 to level 31 required, conditionally, 2 units of energy, then for the transition from 31 to 32, it already required 4 units of energy.
Because of this, Su Xiao now seriously doubted that he would have enough remaining energy in essence to upgrade Qing Gang Yin's energy to level 40.
But that didn't matter now. When the skeleton becomes the size of a fist, Su Xiao will once again start absorbing the energy from this essence.
As for Bubtni absorbing the energy from this crystal, they had already tried it out. After Bubtni swallowed a bit of pure life energy from the essence, he became very energetic and started jumping on the spot every now and then, after which he calmed down and a whole nothing happened to him.
Su Xiao's theory was wrong. Bubtni only had to absorb the flesh and blood of strong creatures to become stronger.
[Advanced Creature (Active). Bubtni can evolve by eating strong creatures.]
However, it was written in black and white in the description of his skill, but it was still worth a try.
Even that didn't matter, because Su Xiao had created an Ama anyway, so the combat effectiveness of Bubtni increased significantly.
Su Xiao opened the description of Qing Gang Yin.
He wanted to see how much this ability had improved.
[Qing Gang Yin: Level 39 (Active Skill).
Terms of Use: Once activated, the Hunter will start spending 118 (+18) Mana points per minute. Mana consumption can be freely controlled. The skill will automatically stop working when the Hunter's mana drops to 1% of its maximum value..
Skill Effect: Once activated, each melee attack will burn 205(+45) units of enemy mana and deal 1.5 times the true damage (307.5 units). The enemy will experience severe pain from burning mana.
Hymn of Invincibility (For level 20 skill). A defensive form of the Qing Gang Yin skill that can create an energy shield of any shape to defend against enemy attacks. The strength of a shield depends on the amount of mana spent on it. The upper limit for one-time mana consumption is 600 (+100) points.
Soul Shock (For level 30 of the skill). When the Qing Gang Yin energy burns the opponent's mana, with a 16% chance(+4%), one of three abnormal states will be imposed on the opponent: paralysis, immobilization, or dizziness. The superimposed abnormal state will last from 0.2 to 3 seconds (the duration of the abnormal state is determined by the amount of intelligence of the Hunter).
Reminder: These abnormal conditions will take effect without triggering a two-party evaluation.
Reminder: This ability activates itself and has no cooldown time..
Reminder: Abnormal states imposed by this skill cannot be superimposed on each other.]
The mana cost had increased, but Su Xiao now had 3,526 mana points. Even if he doesn't control his mana consumption, it won't run out until about 30 minutes later, but along with the increase in mana consumption, the damage dealt has also increased — now it has reached 307 units. This amount of true damage could only be described as " terrifying».
In the past, when Su Xiao was a novice, he kept Qing Gang Yin's energy constantly turned on, but now, he only activated this energy before attacking. Because of this, the mana consumption was significantly reduced. Qing Gang Yin's energy could envelop the sword blade in 0.7-1.4 seconds, at the very worst in 2 seconds, so it wasn't much of a problem.
Although Su Xiao didn't get any free stat points or coins from completing the games in Alice's Demonic Castle, he became much stronger. The four stat rewards, the creation of an Amu, and now such a dramatic improvement in Qing Gang Yin's energy created a truly big difference between Su Xiao before the games in Alice's Demonic Castle and the current Su Xiao.
Su Xiao's time in Paradise was coming to an end. There wasn't much time left before he returned to his own world. Having rested in it, he, fully prepared for new difficulties, will enter the next derivative world..
After thinking about the next derived world, Su Xiao became a little curious. Although he had just been promoted to the third rank, he was already stronger than most third rank contractors.
What derivative world will Paradise eventually send him to?
As for why Su Xiao thought that he was stronger than most third-rank contractors, he got this information from Ping.
Su Xiao had previously thought that all the third-rank contractors had broken the 80-point barrier, but in reality, that wasn't the case.
Only a few third-rank contractors have overcome it.
Su Xiao and the three hooligans were the people who grew up at a very fast pace. Loli, Wash, and so on were already" old " third-rank contractors. As for Ping, he was a relatively experienced third-rank contractor, but he only became one because he wanted to increase his required stats to 80 points.
According to Ping, as long as Su Xiao didn't provoke a strong third-rank guild or the strongest third-rank contractors, all the other third-rank contractors wouldn't be Su Xiao's match.
Ordinary contractors overcame the 80 point barrier by being late third and early fourth rank contractors.
Su Xiao also broke through this barrier as soon as he became a third-rank contractor. Moreover, he overcame it, having four characteristics pumped to the maximum at once.
Su Xiao wanted to know how strong he was, and it wasn't difficult to check it out.
The third rank arena became available to him, however, due to the fact that he didn't reach the top 10 in the second rank arena, his ranking was completely reset and he was currently at the bottom of the third rank ranking table...
Su Xiao suddenly thought about the fact that he was going to meet salty fish all the time.
In his opinion, Wash and Loli, the real veterans of the third rank, were not so-so fighters, especially loli. If she fought Su Xiao, she would almost immediately be humiliated and trampled into the mud without a chance to counterattack.
And considering loli's words and behavior, she was an average third-rank contractor.
Now Su Xiao was confused by her progress.
She was indeed a third-rank contractor?
But although she wasn't very strong, those who were considered one of the strongest third-rank contractors couldn't be underestimated.
For example, if he were to face Hufe now, the loser would most likely be Su Xiao, not Hufe.
He was a third-rank contractor and could have moved to the fourth rank for a long time, but because of something, he was constantly delaying the transition process.
Stan, on the other hand, was a fourth-rank contractor, and he went to the derived worlds without much fear, and many of his trusted people were also fourth-rank contractors.
As for his third-rank subordinates, they were all managed by Khufe.
It was rumored that if Stan decided to fight Khufe to the death, he would definitely not win. Khufe was a third-rank monster, a contractor who was officially considered a third-rank contractor, but in reality had the strength of a fourth-rank contractor.
A powerful guy like Khufe practically didn't have any worthy opponents at the third rank. The only one who could compete with him among the third-rank contractors was a Sacred Emperor's man. He had amazing healing abilities and very powerful attacking skills.
