Chapter 212
Golden Treasure Box, Kingdom Holy Ring! A drop of pitch-black blood appeared again in Cao Xing’s hand.
[**Demon Blood (Special Item)**]
[Contains pure Demon Power; once consumed, it allows a Lord or recruited creature to change their profession into a powerful Demon Professional, increasing attack power by 50% and adding Demon Power effects to all skill attributes.]
(Note: Although Demon Professionals are powerful, they will be suppressed by higher-rank demons and face hostility from the clergy.)
…
“Another profession-changing item?”
“So, if I use it, I’ll become a Demon Mage, Liu Muxue will become a Demon Knight, and Ji Xinyue will become a Demon Warrior?”
“However, this thing, while significantly increasing attack power by 50%, also comes with considerable side effects. It’s probably best not to use it on myself.”
After pondering for a moment, Cao Xing decided that if given the opportunity, he would find a subject to test it on.
He then continued to look through the other items.
[**Holy Light Redemption Skill Book (Golden): Aurora Knight Exclusive Skill Book**]
[Skill Effect: Cast Redemption on a friendly unit, ensuring 1 life point is retained after a fatal attack and recovering 20% of life value; the effect lasts for 10 minutes, with a 20-minute cooling time.]
(One day, God patted my shoulder, saying: I will cast Redemption on you to help you grow faster.)
…
“What the… forcing a retention of one life point,”
“Combined with my Eternal Power, wouldn’t this make me practically unkillable?”
Cao Xing was astounded.
He eagerly wanted to test this skill’s effect right away.
Therefore, Cao Xing directly tossed the skill book to Liu Muxue.
Liu Muxue took it, her lips slightly parted, immediately understanding the importance of this skill book.
She then clicked on “Learn” without hesitation.
At the same time, Liu Muxue raised her longsword and began to chant softly.
“If there is no light, darkness loses its meaning.”
“Those who are invaded by evil will, or birth beliefs of corruption, all need the redemption of Holy Light!”
In the next moment, a ray of light entered Cao Xing’s body.
A system prompt appeared.
[Liu Muxue successfully cast [Holy Light Redemption]; due to the talent [Eternal Power], the skill has been changed to a permanent state, triggering the [Holy Light Redemption] effect every 5 minutes.]
…
Seeing the prompt, a look of realization appeared in Cao Xing’s eyes.
Just as he expected, Eternal Power didn’t allow this skill to work infinitely, but it significantly enhanced it.
“That’s not bad at all, effectively giving an extra life every five minutes.”
Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction.
Up next was the last item.
A golden ring.
[**Kingdom Holy Ring (Golden)**]
[Quality: Treasure]
[Wearing Requirement: Level 15]
[Armor: 19~21]
[Attached Effect ①: Spirit +20, Constitution +20]
[Attached Effect ②: Exquisite Texture (Charm +20)]
[Attached Effect ③: Energy Amplification (Upon attack, there’s a 50% chance to increase the damage of this attack by 20%)]
[Attached Effect ④: Sea’s Blessing (using healing skills increases healing effect by an additional 50%)]
(Item Description: Under the magnificent patterns, Edburn’s name is engraved in cursive…)
…
Cao Xing’s pupils contracted sharply once more.
“My goodness! Isn’t this ring tailor-made for Liu Muxue and me?”
An additional 50% healing effect increase!
He could easily equip it first and use [Ice Healing Skill] on all recruited creatures.
The recovery numbers per second would skyrocket!
Then, passing it to Liu Muxue to use [Holy Healing Skill] on the group would significantly enhance healing capability as well!
Clearly, this was feasible!
According to his estimation, his Ice Healing Skill would be able to restore nearly 200 blood volumes per second!
Restoring over twelve thousand blood volumes in one minute!
Incredibly powerful!
Cao Xing was so excited that he even considered equipping it on the spot.
“However, this ring is a level 15 equipment.”
Cao Xing glanced at his experience bar.
[Level 13 52%]
“Not much longer until I can equip it, probably by tomorrow.”
With this in mind, Cao Xing stored everything away.
As for the two new materials, [Constant Gold Ingot] and [Demon Pattern Stone].
“These two materials, I recall they are needed to forge the King Altar.”
“I’ve been clueless about them before, and it turns out they just handed them to me.”
This also provided Cao Xing with a direction; he just needed to open a Golden Treasure Box to gather the materials required to build the King Altar.
Meanwhile,
Cao Xing’s followers had finished searching the entire cathedral’s coffins.
Altogether, five to six hundred coffins yielded over a hundred funerary artifact bags for him.
[Obtained: Ascalon Undead’s Funerary Artifact Bag *114]
[Obtained: Ascalon Captain’s Funerary Artifact Bag *5]
[Obtained: Ascalon Captain’s Funerary Artifact Bag *1]
…
“Not bad, not bad.”
Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction.
Now the funerary artifact bags in his hand totalled over three hundred.
Thus, he had completed the tally of the harvest here.
Cao Xing ordered, “Let’s go, we can leave now.”
“We’re going to find Lieutenant Carlhan.”
He didn’t forget that there was still a task reward to claim from Lieutenant Carlhan!
Cao Xing headed straight to the stone gate of the Kasha Cathedral, using the Universal Key and Stone Talisman to open the door!
“Boom!”
The gate slowly rose, revealing a bright passage outside.
The group saw
the walls around were covered in claw marks, suggesting that many Soul-Devouring Monsters had frantically attacked the doors and walls here in the past.
