Reincarnation Paradise: Passion Leads to Greatest Success

Chapter 180 Black Blade: The Devouring Blade

One minute later.

The "God-Slaying Blade Emperor" completely sank into the pitch-black blade, which was less than three fingers wide. The black blade's growth rate instantly soared from 5% to 65%.

"very good."

Seeing this, Fang Yu felt a little more at ease. Now he was certain that the two dark purple weapons were more than enough to upgrade Black Blade to dark purple quality.

The blade tip was turned towards the "dropper gun," and half a minute later...

Seemingly due to the enhancement brought about by the increased growth level, the process of devouring has accelerated significantly.

When the spear completely melted away, the Black Blade's growth rate finally reached 100%.

[Black Blade is advancing, countdown: 30 minutes.]

A faint, dark purple light quietly emerged from the blade.

Fang nodded in satisfaction and turned to walk towards the forging room.

Mia was focused on replacing the energy core of the Arbiter, while eight mechanical arms were methodically assembling the parts of the new machine next to the forging furnace.

Judging from the situation, it won't be long before we can replenish all the judges.

Next, we just need to wait for the magic resistance metal to arrive before we can make improvements.

Fang Yu sat down at his forging table. He still had more than a dozen mana recovery potions and 11,000 Paradise Coins on him. It was time to get down to work on making alchemical bombs.

Time passed slowly.

When the Paradise Coins were exhausted, and one hundred intermediate alchemical bombs were neatly arranged on the table, he finally stopped and contacted the female black marketeer.

Female black marketeer: Mr. Black Knife, I'm sorry, the market has been fluctuating recently, and the price may drop slightly.

Black Knife: How much?

Female black market dealer: 750 each.

Black Knife: Deal.

Soon, he had 60,000 Paradise Coins and 100 bottles of high-quality mana restoration potions.

Mana restoration potions are necessary for mass production of alchemical bombs.

These one hundred bottles of potion cost 15,000 Paradise Coins.

Now that he had Paradise Coins and Mana Restoration Potions, he could continue working on the Alchemy Bomb.

The price offered by the female black marketeer did not exceed his expectations; in fact, he would have accepted it as long as it was within his expectations.

After all, the costs are there, and excessively high profits might jeopardize long-term cooperation; he understands this principle.

In fact, the alchemical bombs had no trouble selling at the amusement park.

With the sheer number of contractors in the park, this cheap, convenient, and powerful alchemical bomb is a common tactical choice for many, proving extremely practical whether used to set traps or thrown directly.

He sold the goods to the female black market dealer at wholesale price, which seemed like a discount, but in reality, he saved valuable time.

If he were to go into retail himself, he could earn more, but it would take up precious time that could be used to enhance his strength. The strength that could be enhanced in that time is far beyond what those Paradise Coins can buy.

Fang Yu can create intermediate alchemical bombs very quickly, about one every two seconds.

He made 600 of them before stopping.

In front of the forging table, a small pile of empty mana restoration potions had been stacked up.

Fang Yu estimated that if all 600 of these items were sold to the female black marketeer, the Black Sail Merchant Guild might reach a temporary saturation point.

After all, there are many contractors in Paradise, so it is obviously unlikely that he is the only one who can make alchemical bombs.

Even if most people choose to set up stalls for retail, and only a small portion flows to the Chamber of Commerce, the total amount will still be considerable.

But in fact, after making these 600 alchemical bombs, Fang Yu had no intention of continuing to make them.

It's been almost two days since he returned to Paradise. He'll have to stay for another day or so before heading back to the real world. Time is tight, and there's so much to do.

Upgrading skills, strengthening equipment, and improving the Arbiter all require a lot of time, so we can no longer devote all our time to earning Paradise Coins.

Fang contacted the female black market dealer, and as he expected, after the transaction of 600 bombs, she subtly indicated that the higher-ups needed time to "digest the inventory" and that they could continue to acquire bombs in a few days.

Fang Yu found the female black marketeer's apologies and repeated assurances somewhat amusing. After comforting her for a while, he retrieved the 45 Paradise Coins sent via email and checked the notification that had just popped up in the Paradise chat window:

[Black Blade has completed its advancement and has now reached Dark Purple.]

[Note: Each time a weapon is upgraded, its enhancement level will be reset, but the enhancement effects will be retained.]

Perfect.

Fang Yu's face showed anticipation as he got up, left the forging room, and returned to his room.

Black Blade lay quietly on the bed, its dark purple light having dissipated, with only a faint purple hue occasionally lingering at the edge of its blade.

Fang Yu stepped forward, picked it up, and checked its attributes:

[Black Blade] (Growth Rate 0%)

Origin: Reincarnation Paradise Quality: Dark Purple Durability: 175~175 (Increase by 20~20)

Attack power: 118~135 (increase by 18~20)

Equipment Requirements: Fang Yu Rating: 260 (Dark Purple Extreme Rating)

装备效果1：锋利度37（提升4）、斩击伤害+71（提升17）

Equipment Effect 2: Devour (Passive): 35% (increased by 5) of the damage dealt will be converted into healing to heal the user. If the user is in good condition, the healing will be converted into additional damage.

Note: This treatment can heal five types of injuries, including soul injuries, willpower injuries, and loss of perception.

Equipment Effect 3: Devouring Blade (Passive): When attacking an enemy, deal additional soul damage equal to Soul Strength + Willpower × 1.5.

Note: If the soul damage inflicted reaches 10% of the enemy's maximum health, it will cause 17 negative status effects such as dizziness, soul pain, and fainting.

Synopsis: Everyone is pursuing a peerless divine weapon, and you happen to possess it.

Price: Cannot be traded, cannot be dropped, and cannot be used by others.

Fang Yu reached out and grasped the black blade.

A primal tremor surged from my palm straight to my soul; it felt as if the two were one, and to separate them would be to sever the origin.

This was the first time he had felt the "origin" of the Black Blade so clearly.

Just like when he activated his talent "Devour," it was a profound and pure "Devouring Origin" that wanted to devour everything.

At that moment, Fang Yu realized something and understood something.

Perhaps, each advancement of Black Blade represents a more thorough binding with him at the "origin" level.

Black Blade is getting closer and closer to his talent "Devour". This was actually hinted at in the skill name. Although the effect has no direct connection with "Devour", it is still named Devour and Devouring Blade.

Why?

This is merely the outward manifestation of its power; as the quality of the Black Blade improves, its true essence is gradually becoming apparent.

Initially, the Black Blade could only heal physical injuries; now, having advanced to dark purple quality, it can heal the soul.

Injuries such as willpower are manifestations of "power unleashed".

His "Devour" talent possesses just such characteristics. Although this quality upgrade has not yet reached the terrifying level of the "Devour" talent, it is getting closer.

Perhaps in a future leap in quality, the Black Blade's extra damage will be transformed into "extra Devour damage," and its effect will become increasingly similar to the "Devour" talent.

When this primordial power fully erupts, the Black Blade will become a true "Devouring Blade".
