"Whoosh—"
A figure descended from the sky, startling a flock of birds into flight across the silent forest.
Ye Bai landed lightly, feeling the soft touch of the thick leaves beneath his feet.
"This should be safe."
Ye Bai stretched lazily and began to sort through the spoils of his journey.
After defeating the Bull Demon Battle General, there were no monsters on the first floor of the Eternal Tower that posed any threat to him.
Even without using skills, Ye Bai could easily defeat monsters with basic attacks alone.
In his palm appeared a blue disc, the greatest reward from defeating the Bull Demon Battle General— the Anti-Magic Disc!
"Special Item [Anti-Magic Disc]:
Rank: SS
Completeness: 74.8%
Requirements: LV.20, Bull Demon Bloodline
Effect: The holder can be immune to magic damage below ten million, and enjoy significant damage reduction for magic damage above ten million.
Note: The Anti-Magic Disc can be crushed to completely block the next magic damage received (below War God level)."
Seeing the effects of the [Anti-Magic Disc], Ye Bai couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed and muttered to himself,
"I knew it, those Demon Gods aren't in the delivery business, why would they kindly send me an item?
Even the special item configured for the Bull Demon Battle General comes with conditions I can't meet!"
Actually, it's not entirely unusable.
If the Anti-Magic Disc is treated as a one-time consumable, its effect is indeed powerful.
Being able to completely block magic damage below the War God level is like having an extra life in critical moments!
Currently, Ye Bai,
It's just that using an SS-level item as a one-time consumable is too extravagant.
But the two conditions for using the Anti-Magic Disc are firmly blocking Ye Bai: Level 20, Bull Demon Bloodline.
Ye Bai is currently only level 10 and can't use it for now.
This issue isn't too big; Ye Bai will soon break through to level 20, which won't be a problem for him.
The real challenge is the bloodline requirement!
Ye Bai is purely human, with no relation to the Bull Demon Bloodline, unable to possess the Anti-Magic Disc and enjoy high magic immunity, leaving it to lie dormant in his backpack.
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
Ye Bai consoled himself, "Having it is better than not having it!"
After all, it's an SS-level special item with nearly 75% completeness. If Ye Bai were willing to sell it at the Pavilion of All Things, it could easily fetch at least a million gold coins!
However, once the [Anti-Magic Disc] is sold, such a rare special item would easily lead people to associate it with the Bull Demon Battle General that appeared today!
It wouldn't be hard to deduce that the Bull Demon Battle General was killed by the seller!
At that point, someone would surely investigate further, and if Ye Bai were exposed, it would bring unnecessary trouble!
"Develop cautiously, don't be reckless!"
Ye Bai knew well that a dead genius is worthless.
Only by realizing the potential of his SSS Rank Talent would he have the right to stand at the center stage and fight!
Before that, the right path is to work hard to improve his strength!
Putting away the Anti-Magic Disc, Ye Bai looked at the massive bull's head in his backpack, which almost filled the entire space.
The lifeless bull's eyes stared at Ye Bai, silently accusing him of brutality.
"Unfortunately, in the Eternal Tower, levels are linked to the number of floors cleared, so even if I defeat the Bull Demon Battle General across levels, I can't gain experience or level up."
However, there are still benefits; Ye Bai wouldn't engage in a losing trade!
First, the rewards from killing the Bull Demon Battle General were all converted into attributes.
The Eternal Tower rewarded Ye Bai with +100 to all attributes and +1 to luck.
Ye Bai didn't expect that killing the Bull Demon Battle General would increase his luck attribute!
"The Bull Demon Battle General wasn't originally a monster on the first floor; it was sent here by the Demon God through special means."
Ye Bai rubbed his chin, analyzing seriously,
"Its arrival disrupted the rules of the Eternal Tower, which is why it was severely injured and bound by the eternal rules!"
"By killing the Bull Demon Battle General, I eliminated a glitch and maintained the rules of the Eternal Tower, so these attribute rewards make sense."
Eternal Tower rules...
Ye Bai could only say, the more, the better!
He has always been fair and just, never exploiting glitches, and can't stand others doing so!
Besides the attribute rewards, after killing the Bull Demon Battle General, the exploration rate of the first floor of the Eternal Tower soared to 65%!
This progress greatly exceeded Ye Bai's expectations.
"Looks like there's plenty of time today to participate in the Warrior Test!"
Ye Bai didn't forget his plan; after taking stock of his gains, he should focus on increasing the exploration rate.
"The advancement of Nature's Force is complete; I hope it doesn't disappoint me!"
Ye Bai lifted Nature's Force, his gaze falling downward.
The hundred-billion damage from killing the Bull Demon Battle General satisfied the hidden advancement condition of Nature's Force, automatically advancing it.
The staff, originally 1.2 meters long, seemed heavier after the advancement, weighing nearly 20 pounds!
With Ye Bai's strength attribute over 300, this weight was no burden to him.
For other mages, just holding Nature's Force might be a struggle.
Let alone lifting it to cast spells or moving swiftly in battle, it would be impossible!
As Ye Bai's gaze fell, the information of Nature's Force was fully revealed.
[
Equipment: Nature's Force (LV.10)
Rank: A+
Attributes: Intelligence +40, Spirit +30
Traits:
[Heaven's Wrath] Increases lightning damage by 15% for the staff holder, increases lightning damage received by 5%, and increases shield/healing from wood skills by 15%.
[Duality] When casting lightning skills, there is a 1% chance to simultaneously cast wood skills, and vice versa.
[Thunderstorm] When casting lightning skills, there is a 0.01% chance to deal double damage!
Advancement Trait:
[Path to Annihilation]: Kill 1000 units above the holder's level with lightning damage (0/1000)
Advancement Opportunities: 11
Advancements Completed: 1
]
Nature's Force originally had three traits.
The previous advancement trait refreshed to [Path to Annihilation] after advancement.
Killing 1000 units above one's level is not a difficult advancement condition, it's quite simple!
The effects of the traits [Heaven's Wrath] and [Duality] have been slightly enhanced.
Especially Heaven's Wrath, not only does it deal more damage, but the side effects are smaller!
The newly added advancement trait [Thunderstorm] is the most valuable!
"A one in ten thousand chance to deal double damage!"
Looking at [Thunderstorm], Ye Bai liked it more and more; it was a thrilling feeling!
From a mathematical expectation perspective, the gain from [Thunderstorm] isn't high.
Casting 10,000 times to trigger once, it's just double damage.
However!
Nature's Force still has 11 advancement opportunities, and after each advancement, all traits will be enhanced!
This means that as time goes on, both the probability and damage of [Thunderstorm] will significantly increase!
Its potential is something Ye Bai trusts!
"80,000 gold coins well spent!"
Ye Bai beamed with joy; this money was well spent!
If he were to sell [Nature's Force] at the Pavilion of All Things now, even without disclosing the advancement conditions, it could easily sell for over 300,000 gold coins!
Putting away Nature's Force, Ye Bai casually opened his attribute panel:
"
Eternal ID: Asura
Talent: Eye of Insight (SSS Rank)
Level: 10
Class: Thunder Fury Mage (Lightning Element)
HP: 4600/4600
MP: 3100/3100
Strength: 226 (+100)
Intelligence: 245 (+40)
Spirit: 235 (+30)
Agility: 224
Constitution: 231 (+100)
Luck: 12
Equipment: Nature's Force (+1)
Skills: Lightning Arrow, Blessing of Thunder, Ready to Go, Heavenly Thunder
Status: Lightning Affinity, Lightning Specialization
"
All five attributes exceed 200; now, Ye Bai could pass the first-tier Warrior Test with his eyes closed!
"Whoosh—"
The attribute panel slowly disappeared, and Ye Bai stretched lazily, looking towards the dense forest, full of energy.
"First, let's get the exploration rate of the first floor to 100%!"
"Charge, charge, charge!"
