Chapter 1523: Sword Demon
Ten minutes later, Su Xiao comprehended Marvin's idea, it was very crazy, or rather untested, as only a very small number of Law Shadows would be able to pull it off.
The so-called sword awakening was actually to transform the Dragon Flash from a "dead item" to a "living being". Of course, this wouldn't give Dragon Flash its consciousness and wouldn't make this sword a "living sword". Su Xiao would inject a small part of his thoughts into the Dragon Flash, at least the essence of a normal awakening was just that.
Marvin's suggestion was insane. He wanted Su Xiao to inject the Sword Demon into the Dragon Flash, essentially, he wanted him to use the Dragon Flash as a container for the Sword Demon.
It wasn't that the Shadows of Law had never done this before, but given Su Xiao's current strength, it was almost impossible to do so.
But according to Marvin, if Su Xiao didn't do it now, he probably wouldn't have the chance to do it in the future. He was different from the other Shadows of the Law. Without resources and help from other Shadows of the Law, it will be several times more difficult to do this in the future than it is now.
As Su Xiao grew, so would the Sword Demon. It appeared when Su Xiao acquired the Devouring Core, and from that moment on, it grew every time Su Xiao grew as well.
The stronger the Sword Demon is, the harder it will be to cram it into Dragon Flash. Right now, Su Xiao had a much better chance of doing such a thing due to the Sword Demon in his body currently sleeping due to growing too much.
Marvin's idea was simple and crude. He knew that the Shadows of the Law had implanted their demons in their weapons. When he sensed that Su Xiao had entered the sword awakening period, he was reminded of a certain Shadow of Law who had accomplished such a thing in one of the worlds with a single device.
According to Marvin, there was still an intact Sword Demon sealing device in one of the worlds.
The problem was that even though he knew exactly which world this device was in, he didn't know exactly where it was right now, so Su Xiao needed to enter this world and find it. The ring that he passed to Su Xiao was the key to entering this world.
If Su Xiao uses this ring, he will immediately be able to enter the desired world, but in it he will not be able to get chests, the Source of Peace, and so on. He wouldn't even be able to take anything from this world other than the Sword Demon sealing device.
But if he finds it and uses it for its intended purpose, not only will he be able to awaken his sword, but he will also be able to reach a whole different level.
Even if he couldn't gain anything in this world, just finishing the sword awakening alone was worth it. Right now, Su Xiao had to gather as much strength as possible, because in the near future, he would have to return to Wang Pis, and there the strongest pirates and admirals of the Sea Watch would be waiting for him with open arms.
Although he wasn't a match for the admirals yet, he wasn't too far away from them. If he raised the level of his sword skill and allowed his sword to awaken, he would be eligible to take part in Wang Pis ' most dangerous battles, no, by then, he would be one of the main players in those battles.
As for the ring with which he would be able to get to the right world, the penalty of not being able to get anything from this world could be easily circumvented if he "handed over for travel", or rather paid for the time and space power spent on transferring, and it just so happened that he had Su Xiao had one coin that contained the power of time and space.
— Whether you want it or not, you need to think carefully, but remember, this device hasn't been used by anyone for a very long time, so just in case, you need to bring along these crystals, not very much, somewhere around a kilogram, " Marvin said, throwing a nail-sized crystal to Su Xiao.
[
Conductive consciousness resin.
Origin: Void.
Quality: Legendary.
Type: Consumable material (60 grams).
Effect: Can conduct, seal, and block consciousness.
Rating: 425.
Description: Extremely rare material.
Sale Price: 157,000 Paradise coins.
When Su Xiao saw the price of the crystal, his head started to hurt. If 60 grams was valued at 157,000 Paradise coins, then one kilo of these crystals would cost about 2.6 million Paradise coins, and this was the sale price to Paradise, not the purchase price.
After looking closely at the crystal, he suddenly realized that he had previously held something similar in his hands.
— By the way, to create this device, you need to spend seven hundred kilograms of such crystals. Considering that this sealing device has not been maintained by anyone for a long time, if your Sword Demon is too strong, the device may not be able to help you much, and in that case, you will have to create this device to suit your needs, and it will take years. When we wanted to create them, we outsourced them to the dwarves, as you say, and it took them about a hundred and seventy years to do it, and that's assuming we saved them from destruction earlier. In a hundred and seventy years, they managed to create nineteen such devices, and this despite the fact that these dwarves were among the best blacksmiths in the Void. They were the ones who created the Void Tower, and it still stands there, you know.
In fact, this was Su Xiao's only chance to seal his Sword Demon.
— I understand, " Su Xiao replied and put away the ring and crystal.
— The time has come, good luck to you, " as soon as Marvin said that, Su Xiao felt like he was attracted to him and the world started rejecting him.
Soon, Su Xiao disappeared.
— Oh, I forgot to tell you that he won't be very welcome there... Marvin muttered and slapped his forehead. This time, he really forgot, unlike the previous times when he suddenly started to develop amnesia.
Marvin was sometimes very reliable, and sometimes completely unreliable.
— Cutie, wake up come on, even if this apostle is gone, I'll help you summon a ten-star, you can use it for...
----
When Su Xiao regained consciousness, he was already in his exclusive space.
The awakening of the sword wasn't as simple as he had imagined, and it was even related to the Sword Demon.
The sword demon was like a time bomb in Su Xiao's body. When he used the Devouring Core, he risked turning into a Sword Demon, but considering all the advantages, this risk was justified.
Right now, Su Xiao wasn't able to deal with all the hidden dangers of the Sword Demon, but Marvin had provided him with a tool with which he could solve all the problems. Although Marvin was sometimes unreliable, he was his mentor, and when it came to such matters, he was quite a reliable mentor.
Su Xiao was able to gather so many resources in Bleach due to the fact that with the Devouring Core, he was able to use spiritual particles at will.
He sat down on the floor and thought about it.
In the end, Su Xiao decided to put aside the matter of awakening the sword for the time being, first he had to spend all the resources he received and then think about awakening.
The first thing he did was go to the Statistics Improvement hall.
Half an hour later, Su Xiao was still sitting cross-legged in the advanced stat enhancement hall. He distributed his 14 free True Stats points as follows: Strength+3; Agility+3; Stamina+4; Intelligence +4.
When the hall stopped humming, Su Xiao checked his stats and turned off the display of bonuses from his equipment.
[
True Power: 96
True Dexterity: 96
True Resilience: 97
True Intelligence: 96
If all the equipment bonuses were taken into account, Su Xiao's strength would reach 101 points, agility and stamina 100 points.
But in fact, Su Xiao's strength not only didn't reach 101 points, but stopped at 99 points, however, other characteristics were no exception.
[
True Strength: 99 (+5 from the Demon Hunter King Kit (actual boost is equal to +3))
True Dexterity: 99 (+4 from the Demon Hunter King Set (actual increase is equal to +3))
True Stamina: 99 (+3 from the Demon Hunter King Pack (actual boost is equal to +2))
True Intelligence: 96
In the end, Su Xiao turned the matter over to Paradise.
[
The hunter does not have all the necessary access rights.
Apart from such a simple answer, there was nothing else. If Su Xiao's guess was correct, the only way to increase one's true stats after 99 points was by using one's own strength, meaning the equipment would become ineffective starting from that point.
To some extent, this was a restriction, and also the key to advancing to the fifth rank.
