Chapter 112: The Path to Advancement
[Hint: Please choose the derivative ability of the Spirit Blade from the following three items——]
Su Fan looked at the ability selection under the screen.
1. Adds the 'Soul Purification' ability to the Spirit Blade, which reduces mana every time it hits an enemy, and deals a proportional amount of additional damage based on mana loss (this effect is triggered before the limited advancement).
Second, increase the attack range of the spirit blade and reduce the loss of sword energy at the longest distance.
3. Perform a Super Charge, compress the Spirit Blade into 'Spirit Breath Slash', perform a 250% base coefficient + 50 damage on the target, with a cooldown of half an hour, and during the cooldown, the Spirit Blade skill is disabled.
Each of the three abilities has its own merits, and each has a different area of expertise.
The Soul Purifying ability can target various mages, slash their blue amount and deal proportional damage, even against warriors, it is also the best countermeasure to reduce their blue amount.
After all, the intelligence of the warriors is not the main attribute, and the blue amount itself is not high.
Once the blue is empty, it means that most of the skills are invalidated, and only a few skills that do not need the amount of blue can be released.
As for the second derivative ability, it is to increase Su Fan's long-range means, allowing him to change his attack range from a medium distance to a long-range attack similar to that of a Codex, completely getting rid of the limitation of attack distance.
Even if it exceeds his attack range, the loss of sword qi will be greatly reduced.
In this way, Su Fan can export remotely from a long distance.
The third derivative focuses on bursts, transforming the Blade ability into a burst that kills in one hit, but it also comes at a cost, with a long cooldown after use, during which the blade is disabled.
Obviously, this is the kind of means to pursue the ultimate explosion.
All three abilities have their own advantages and disadvantages, but Su Fan's gaze stayed on the suffix of the first 'soul purifying ability'.
- (This effect is triggered before the limited advancement).
From the suffix, it is known that this effect can only be triggered if the Spirit Blade skill reaches Lv.10 before leveling.
If the spirit blade only reaches Lv.10 after the character has advanced, it is impossible to trigger the 'Soul Purification' ability.
From this point of view, it may be that since the open beta of "Old Gods", Su Fan is the only one who can upgrade a certain professional skill to Lv.10 before the character advances, after all, he has eaten several swordsmanship crystals alone, and it is very difficult for normal players to get a swordsmanship crystal.
This is a resource that relies on swordsmanship crystallization, plus the experience feedback obtained from killing 'high-quality bosses' many times:
It's like he teamed up with Water Moon Rose to kill the quasi-boss-level boss.
Later, in the [Dusk Town] incident, the members who led the Bayan team killed the head of the Byron Academy again, which is also a quasi-leader-level BOSS, and the skill experience fed back to Su Fan by these high-quality boss monsters is definitely considerable.
Many reasons were superimposed, so that Su Fan reached Lv.10, which met the trigger conditions of the 'Soul Purification' ability.
Otherwise, normal players will have one or two skills that reach Lv.5 at this stage
"I choose Derivative Ability (1) - Soul Purification!"
Su Fan did not hesitate, and decisively chose the first derivative ability, and the next moment, the description of his spirit blade skill became-
[Spirit Blade Lv.10] - After activating the skill, converts your own mana into Soul Purifying Sword Qi.
Consumes 3 mana per minute, if the remaining mana is less than 3 points, it will be automatically closed, and the damage of each soul purifying sword qi is 1 times for normal attack x1 + agility x0.25 times + intelligence x0.15 times (the attack range is 6 meters/currently).
While dealing Soul Purifying Damage to the target, the damage result x0.5 is converted to Mana Damage, and 30% of the damage percentage of Mana is deducted from the damage (True Damage), this damage is true damage and cannot be reduced by armor.
Hiss. After reading the description of the new skill, Su Fan couldn't help but gasp, he guessed that the soul purification ability was very powerful.
But I didn't expect it to be so powerful!
Not to mention anything else, just the damage result x0.5 is converted into mana damage, that is, half of the damage becomes damage mana, if Su Fan slashes down with a knife and explodes hundreds of damage, then the target will lose fifty or sixty mana points.
You must know that Su Fan's equipment is so luxurious, after being promoted to level 10, his mana will be 90 points.
Those knights, shield guards, assassins, etc., who are not as equipped as him, have more than 60 mana points on their bodies.
If this knife goes down, it will basically cut them out of the blue.
Not only is the person bloodless, but the blue bar is also emptied, and even the skill can't be released.
This is definitely a big killer in the wild PK.
Not to mention, mana damage also comes with additional damage, with 30% of mana destroyed being converted to true damage and not subject to any armor reduction.
Suppose Su Fan slashes 100 points of damage, which will be converted into 50 points of mana damage, and 50 points of mana damage will be converted into 15 points of true damage, and the final result will be 100 points of physical damage + 15 points of true damage, and the target will be destroyed by 50 points of mana.
This knife goes down, and it is absolutely sour.
Whether it is a coder, a warrior, or a wet nurse, it is definitely a nightmare for them to encounter an enemy like Su Fan.
[Hint: Your Spirit Blade has activated the 'Soul Purification' ability, Note: This ability is unique, and only the first person can get it!] 】
[Hint: Your Spirit Blade (Lv.10) is bound to the Archer Advancement Core to start the path to advancement]
Sure enough, Su Fan nodded secretly, it seemed that he had guessed correctly.
No wonder, there was no news of the 'Soul Purification' ability in the previous life, because this ability is unique, either someone else has obtained the 'Soul Purifying' ability but does not make a noise, as long as he doesn't say it, others can't know.
Either that or no one has upgraded the Blade skill to Lv.10 before leveling up.
After all, the acquisition of the spirit blade skill itself is not simple, it comes from the gladiatorial arena of Boulder Town, but the professional guild knows the disadvantages of the 'Desert Guard', and often does not participate in the gladiatorial arena, and only a few wild masters have the opportunity to clear the gladiatorial arena.
Even if you clear the level, it is not necessarily a swordsman profession, even if it is a swordsman profession, you don't necessarily choose a spirit blade, and even if you choose a spirit blade, you don't necessarily have to upgrade to level 10. This layer of nesting dolls, like tens of millions in the welfare lottery, is definitely a slim probability.
In the previous life, there was no information about the ability to purify souls, and it is also a matter of course.
The reborn is not omniscient and omnipotent Su Fan shook his head secretly, it seems that his luck is good, and he was lucky enough to get a unique derivative effect, which is not worse than the 'starry' derivative effect on his body as a starry sky sword saint in his previous life.
This kind of 'uniqueness' derivative effect is often the core ability of the strong, and can even become the signature stunt of the sage.
In his previous life, he was as strong as Su Fan, and he also had three 'uniqueness' derivative effects on his body, among which [Stars] was the most powerful, followed by the other two.
This [Soul Purification] ability, depending on its growth and future potential, is no worse than [Stars].
Using it as the basis of the advanced road, Su Fan looked at the character panel, at this moment, the above 'rank' column has been activated, the advanced road has opened, and the trial challenges are as follows-
【Path to Advancement: Secret Swordsman (Spirit Blade Lv.10)】
First, use the spirit blade skill to kill 30 monsters above the elite level, the higher the monster level/template, the better the advanced effect.
Second, use the mana damage on the spirit blade to destroy the enemy's total mana to 3,000 points, and comprehend the essence of the secret method.
3. Comprehend a specialty above Bronze (completed).
The three trial conditions made Su Fan's expression stunned for a moment after reading them, he never expected that the third requirement was a specialty above the bronze level, and he had already taken a step ahead and obtained a gold-level specialty first.
A gift from Ulysses, the golden specialty obtained by drinking Dragon's Blood Wine - the power of secret blood!
