Chapter 428: Absorption, Great Sin · Guo Liang Nu Sha
Hiss!
The scarlet great snake seemed to let out a wail, and the next moment, it shattered into a large number of scarlet light points, merging into Bai Cangshu's Reincarnation Mark on his right hand.
At this moment, the black barrier surrounding the official residence in the sky began to disintegrate from above.
The rain clouds summoned in the sky had not yet dispersed. Amidst the rain, Bai Cangshu clenched his right hand, and the scarlet light points completely condensed into his right hand.
[Great Sin · Evil God's Omen (Tier 2) successfully devoured Great Sin · Guo Liang Nu Sha (Tier 2)]
[Great Sin · Evil God's Omen has advanced, current: Evil God's Omen (Tier 3)]
[All abilities of Evil God's Omen have been strengthened]
[Evil God's Omen gained new ability · Guo Liang Nu Sha]
[Guo Liang Nu Sha (Tier 2): Passive - Any of your attacks, as long as they cause physical damage to the target, the opponent will have their damage received amplified by the power of Scarlet Sin. The amplification is tied to the number of Great Sin Points; each Great Sin Point amplifies damage by 5%, potentially leading to physical disintegration and death at its highest;]
When Evil God's Omen is activated, Evil God's Omen will gain the Slaughter Form. In this form, any attack cannot be completely defended against (minimum damage caused will be skin abrasion level). This ability has medium priority;
Guo Liang Nu Sha (Tier 2) will gain increased effectiveness based on the number of slaughters.]
Bai Cangshu looked at the description in the panel. So, there was such a benefit for Great Sin Reincarnators killing other Great Sin Reincarnators...
No, perhaps killing a virtue Reincarnator would also yield corresponding improvements.
In addition to directly seizing the Great Sin ability of Guo Liang Nu Sha, the four forms corresponding to the original Evil God's Omen all received some amplification, including the reward range for Greed Cocoon, which granted scarlet drop cards and additional rewards upon killing Reincarnators—all were improved.
However, this time, no card appeared as a drop from the deceased Xu Zhiyu. Bai Cangshu deduced from this that in the Pirate World, when the virtue Reincarnator named Roland died, that virtue card directly fell into his hands.
This was an anomaly.
That was probably Roland's arrangement. According to his description, his virtue · Hope Morning Star possessed a causality-based ability similar to "Wish-Granting Spell," capable of influencing the development and direction of events.
Presumably, he used this ability to interfere with the trend of cards being re-released to an unknown location after the death of a special Reincarnator, causing the card to fall directly before him.
Thump, thump, thump.
Li Qingzi, dragging her battle saber and walking out of the rain, had some minor tears in the clothing around her waist and abdomen. It seemed the barrier master had put up some resistance.
However, against a powerful Godspeed swordsman-type Reincarnator with such destructive power, an ordinary barrier master would likely meet their demise.
"You killed him…"
Li Qingzi's eyes showed some shock. She knew Bai Cangshu wasn't one to boast, but how long had it been? A special Reincarnator stronger than herself was killed by him just like that?
She glanced at the stone slab ground around them. Xu Zhiyu hadn't even managed a decent counterattack.
Bai Cangshu shook his head, crushed Xu Zhiyu's scarlet drop card, and spoke lightly.
"He was a lunatic, and a fool. The only thing he wasn't, was a strong expert."
After Sub-World B711, Bai Cangshu had a clearer understanding of the current strength of Reincarnators in the Infinite Dimensional Space.
He guessed that, at this stage, the conventional big figures—the leaders of various assemblies and high-tier teams—were all at the 'Fierce' tier. As for the so-called Supreme Experts or those few experts whose codenames he still didn't know, who could mediate conflicts between Supreme Experts, they should be even stronger.
They might reach the 'Mad' tier.
Because he hadn't directly faced Destiny Eternal, only being able to infer from his daring to confront Tornado and Kageyama Shigeo, Bai Cangshu could only make this speculation.
Furthermore, and more importantly, Bai Cangshu had a more intuitive understanding of the fundamental nature of power in this space.
He looked at the spot where Xu Zhiyu's body had last lain before turning into a scarlet drop card and disappearing.
Extremely high physical attributes, extremely fast speed, immense strength, and simultaneously, the ability to exponentially amplify damage using Guo Liang Nu Sha as long as he could harm the opponent…
This was a combination of abilities that was rarely matched among 'Strong' tier Reincarnators.
When facing Reincarnators weaker than himself, he could almost achieve an instant kill with ease.
Two or three mission worlds ago, he would probably have been the type of enemy Bai Cangshu found most difficult to contend with.
Overwhelmingly inferior in strength and speed, no matter how excellent his physical techniques were, it would be futile.
But now, Bai Cangshu had realized that this level of strength was, after all, only dominant in the first tier.
In the second tier, the Energy Tier, Xu Zhiyu's abilities could only be considered on par with those energy experts.
Against a martial artist like Hong Chen, he might win if Hong Chen hadn't learned more powerful martial arts, but against a Reincarnator like Millennium Bug, he would be counteracted and defeated.
And by the third tier, he completely lost his advantage.
Facing the various bizarre abilities in space, Xu Zhiyu lacked the capital to cope. Perhaps it was because he had always been playing 'house' with those low-tier Reincarnators, and his Scarlet Sin hadn't appeared much in the intelligence of various forces.
A Great Sin Reincarnator who hadn't become a feared villain—Bai Cangshu knew when he realized this that Xu Zhiyu wasn't a truly strong enemy.
He wasn't boasting; Bai Cangshu had multiple ways to kill Xu Zhiyu.
He had intelligence channels from the March Conglomerate, allowing him to easily obtain Xu Zhiyu's true name and appearance. If he used Death Note to curse him, Xu Zhiyu wouldn't even see Bai Cangshu's face.
The basic speed amplified by Tier 8 Instant Prison Kill combined with Transcendent Helix allowed him to gain speed surpassing Xu Zhiyu. Instant Prison Kill combined with Die Yi Sen Luo successfully instantly killed Xu Zhiyu;
Not to mention, Bai Cangshu could actually release Gojo Satoru and Uchiha Madara. Sharingan genjutsu and Limitless Void could both create a lethal situation for Xu Zhiyu, who lacked immunity.
Bai Cangshu, by comparing himself, also gained a clearer understanding of the direction he needed to strengthen next.
Resistance and immunity to various abnormal abilities, and… priority!
The priority of abilities was repeatedly mentioned in various descriptions by the space, and Bai Cangshu also realized its importance.
[You opened a scarlet drop card]
[Drop opening…]
[Calculating target kill points… Target has Great Sin Points, this reward is elevated by one tier]
[Based on the effect of Evil God's Omen · Greed Cocoon (Tier 3), rewards are increased by 75%]
[Based on the effect of Evil God's Omen · Greed Cocoon (Tier 3), you will gain 2 additional reward choices]
[Calculation complete. This opening allows you to choose 3 rewards from the following options]
[A: 125% dimensional points]
[B: 4 items from your backpack]
[C: Gain an additional 25% of your main attribute added to your own attributes (round up)]
[D: Randomly draw 1 specialty, retaining a maximum level of Lv7]
[E: Randomly gain 1 ability, ability can only retain a level of Lv6]
[F: 15% chance to extract a bloodline item, bloodline optimization without retention]
Bai Cangshu looked at the reward fluctuations from Greed Cocoon (Tier 3) combined with killing a Great Sin Reincarnator, which actually allowed him to directly obtain three rewards.
"This really is… enticing me to hunt other Great Sins…"
