"Buzz!"
With a thought from Wang Chong, the scene before him changed once more. Above the Stone of Destiny, golden light flashed. 'Heart', 'Body', 'Energy', 'Technique', 'Power' — five different balls of light, the five different rewards of the Stone of Destiny appeared before his eyes.
'Heart' represented 'conviction', 'Body' represented 'body-refining techniques', 'Energy' represented 'Origin Energy', 'Technique' represented 'moves' and 'techniques', and 'Power' represented 'momentum' and 'fortune'. At least one of Wang Chong's Stone of Destiny rewards had been sealed, but after the southwest war, the last two 'Technique' and 'Power' had been unsealed. At this point, all the seals on the Stone of Destiny had been undone.
Wang Chong's eyes turned, and he very naturally turned his attention to the 'Energy' reward that represented Origin Energy.
Unlike its name, the Stone of Destiny did not directly reward Origin Energy, much less raise a martial artist's strength by a level. Instead, it rewarded many things related to Origin Energy, such as halos or the characteristics of Stellar Energy. With a thought from Wang Chong, the contents of the Stone of Destiny's Origin Energy rewards quickly appeared before his eyes.
Compared to the southwest war, the contents of the Stone of Destiny's rewards had once more changed.
"Origin Energy Pill, effective only for Origin Energy realm martial artists. Stellar Energy Sharpness, changing the nature of Stellar Energy and increasing its sharpness. Stellar Energy Piercing, changing the nature of Stellar Energy and increasing its piercing nature …"
Wang Chong muttered to himself. He was already very familiar with these things. 'Origin Energy Pill' and 'Stellar Energy Sharpness' were of little use to the current Wang Chong. Only 'Stellar Energy Piercing' could ignore defenses, and as the number of layers increased, its ability to ignore the opponent's level was still useful to Wang Chong.
But what truly attracted Wang Chong's attention was the new contents of the Stone of Destiny.
"Stellar Energy Ignition (Only Targets the Power of Lu Wu): Increases user's Lu Wu ability by one level. In battle, rapidly burns away the opponent's energy. The degree of burning depends on user's strength and the opponent's level.
"Primary Upgrade: Burn a quarter of the opponent's Stellar Energy every fifteen minutes. Only effective against Imperial Martial opponents at most. Exchange Points: 800."
[Advanced Upgrade: Burn a quarter of the opponent's Stellar Energy every 15 minutes. Effective against Saint Martial Realm opponents. Cost: 1,200 points.]
…
Wang Chong's eyelids couldn't help but twitch when he saw this. He clearly remembered that this ability hadn't existed the last time he saw it.
"The Stone of Destiny won't change for no reason. It seems that as I accumulate more points, new rewards will appear."
Wang Chong thought to himself. But what truly attracted his attention was the words' only targeting the power of Lu Wu '.
This kind of reward had never appeared before. It seemed that the Stone of Destiny could tailor some special rewards to the host's needs.
"In truth, I already have two supreme arts on me. One is the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art, and the other is the Art of God and Demon Slayer, but neither of them have caused a change in the Stone of Destiny. Only the Power of Lu Wu has become a reward for the Stone of Destiny. Just what is the origin of this Power of Lu Wu? "
Wang Chong's mind was in turmoil as he recalled the men in black he had encountered.
The Power of Lu Wu had belonged to those mysterious men in black, but Wang Chong had never imagined that it would cause a change in the Stone of Destiny. But the Stellar Energy Ignition effect of the Strength of Lu Wu was truly effective against the current Wang Chong.
The effect of the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art and the ability to burn a quarter of the opponent's Stellar Energy every fifteen minutes might not have been enough to kill Dayan Mangpoje, but it was enough to give him a headache.
As these thoughts flew through his mind, Wang Chong quickly made his decision.
"Buzz!"
With a thought from Wang Chong, the reward for the Stellar Energy Ignition effect in the Stone of Destiny exploded with light. At the same time, an enormous energy, burning like fire and chilling like ice, surged into Wang Chong's body like a great river.
This was an extremely uncomfortable feeling, but it only lasted for a moment before vanishing. But Wang Chong's body now had a new energy. This energy was both hot and cold, and it had fused with Wang Chong's flesh, blood, and cells.
What a strange energy!
Wang Chong quietly said to himself. This energy was very similar to the Strength of Lu Wu. It was also brimming with vitality, but it felt even stronger. Moreover, even though his outer appearance hadn't changed, Wang Chong could clearly sense that his strength had increased significantly.
I wonder how effective it is. In a little while, when I fight with Dayan Mangpoje, Wang Chong thought to himself.
The Stone of Destiny's style had always been like this. It would not massively increase one's strength in one go, but rather subtly and subtly, a qualitative change. Just the Stellar Energy Penetration was clearly not enough to deal with Dayan Mangpoje. With a thought, Wang Chong continued to read.
'Heart', 'Physique', 'Energy', 'Technique', 'Power', and all sorts of other rewards appeared before Wang Chong's eyes. These rewards were all different, had different abilities, and could be exchanged for different points, but the vast majority of them were not what Wang Chong currently needed.
Wang Chong's brow gradually creased as he read the contents of these rewards. Wang Chong didn't care much about Dayan Mangpoje's soldiers. He already had a solution for everything, but Dayan Mangpoje was a problem that Wang Chong had to deal with.
Putting aside everything else, if he failed, Dayan Mangpoje would immediately launch a frenzied campaign against Qixi.
Dayan Mangpoje's actions were bold and unconstrained, and not even Wang Chong could predict them. He could only guarantee that while Dayan Mangpoje's attacks were ineffective against him, they might not necessarily be effective against the Qixi Protectorate. Moreover, the penalty of two thousand points of Destiny Energy for mission failure was something that Wang Chong had no choice but to consider.
"Mm?"
Suddenly, Wang Chong's eyes flitted across the 'technique' reward and paused at the very end.
"Karmic Battle Armor (Elementary). For user only. It can greatly increase user's defensive abilities, allowing user to defend against the piercing effects of any divine weapon. In addition, the armor can be fused with user's Stellar Energy, allowing user to greatly increase the abilities and strength of martial artists.
"Exchange requirements: user becomes the 'Controller of Fate' and obtains the elementary Karmic Battle Armor (Karmic Battle Armor is upgraded from the Karmic Battle Armor).
"Exchange Points: 1400 points of Destiny Energy.
"Upgrade (High-level Karmic Battle Armor): Strengthens the effects of Stellar Energy. When user imbues Stellar Energy into the armor, user's level can be raised by one level.
"Bonus: The effect of the upgrade cannot exceed the Saint Martial realm.
"Bonus: A powerful increase in strength is accompanied by a powerful flaw in strength. The Karmic Battle Armor's increase in strength cannot exceed two hours. Furthermore, once it was used, the host would be in a state of dizziness and weakness for about five days (the Karmic Battle Armour did not just deplete Stellar Energy). In addition, the Karmic Battle Armour could not be used normally for a month. User should use it cautiously.
"Exchange Points for Upgrade: 1000 points of Destiny Energy."
"Bonus Upgrade: When user pays an additional 80 points of Destiny Energy, user can store the Karmic Battle Armor in the Stone of Destiny's dimension at any time. At the same time, the armor will obtain the 'attachment effect'. All of the armor will automatically attach itself to the user when summoned, allowing user to quickly put on the armor in any situation. "
… …
As he read through these lines of information, Wang Chong suddenly sank into deep thought. He clearly remembered that there had been no such reward last time.
"Could it be …"
Suddenly thinking of something, Wang Chong quickly focused his attention on the 'Heart', 'Body', 'Energy', 'Technique', and 'Power'. Of the five rewards, 'Power', the last one was the 'Power' reward.
"Heavenly Battle Armor (Divine Battle Armor): Sealed!"
As expected, Wang Chong saw what he had guessed in the last reward for 'Power'. But unlike the Karmic Battle Armor, the Heavenly Battle Armor's words were all gray and sealed.
As expected, the more Destiny Energy one accumulates, the greater the reward will be. At the same time, the number of points required to exchange for these rewards will be even more terrifying.
Wang Chong quietly said to himself.
The items that Wang Chong had exchanged for at the beginning had only required a few dozen points, but things like Stellar Energy Ignition were extremely terrifying. A single Stellar Energy Ignition had consumed 1200 points of Destiny Energy for Wang Chong. And the Karmic Battle Armor, with all of its supplementary abilities, cost a terrifying 2480 points of Destiny Energy.
In the past, he would have only been able to stare at the ocean and sigh.
But even though the amount of Destiny Energy required was astonishing, the effects of these abilities were equally astonishing. Both Stellar Energy Ignition and the Karmic Battle Armor could be used on Saint Martial experts, and the peak of the Saint Martial realm were the Imperial Great Generals of the various countries. There were only a handful of people in the world who could surpass them.
But the Karmic Battle Armor was even more astonishing. Although it required 2400 points of Destiny Energy, it could forcibly raise one's strength from the Imperial Martial realm to the Saint Martial realm. It seemed like only a difference of a single realm, but to Wang Chong, the difference was like the difference between the heavens and the earth.
At the very least, the power of the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art at the Imperial Martial realm was completely different from that at the Saint Martial realm.
Time was short, and after thinking for a few moments, Wang Chong no longer hesitated. He first spent 80 points of Destiny Energy to exchange for the Destiny Battle Armor, then spent 1400 points to upgrade it to the Karmic Battle Armor, and then he spent 1000 points to upgrade it to the Karmic Battle Armor.
In total, Wang Chong had spent 3760 points of Destiny Energy.
Now I only have 270 points of Destiny Energy left.
Wang Chong quietly said to himself.
The stronger the ability, the more points of Destiny Energy one needed to exchange for it. Wang Chong did not dare to recklessly use the remaining 270 points of Destiny Energy.
