Rebirth of the God Hunter Legend

Chapter 230 Almighty Skills
[Ding] System notification: The [Essence] state of the Supreme Artifact [Hermes] is about to end. Current countdown: 10...9...8...7...

Upon hearing the system countdown, Ling Chuan didn't have time to confirm the text and directly selected "Confirm"!

[Ding] System notification: Confirm consumption of 100 points of the legendary re-creation skills [Killing Intent Thrust] and [Divine Shadow Technique]?
What? 100 points? Last time, Lin Xixi's [Blood Moon] skill only cost 20 points when it was re-released. What? Does the skill of a top player come with a built-in brand effect? ​​Or does it have additional value?
Looking at his perfectly neat Legendary stats (250), Ling Chuan felt a pang of regret. These Legendary stats were not easy to obtain, but thinking about those two exceptionally powerful skills, he gritted his teeth and chose to accept them. After all, divine skills were rare, but Legendary stats could increase.

[Ding] System notification: The supreme artifact [Hermes] has successfully embedded the skills [Killing Thrust] and [Divine Shadow Technique]. These skills can be released when using Hermes. Since the skills are released through Hermes, all costs are reduced to zero.

Huh? Consumption reduced to zero? Such a good thing? Okay, at least I feel a bit better now. But the most important thing right now is to confirm the skill. He only glanced at the choice just now and vaguely saw the word "Stealth". But it also has a certain gambling nature. What if it's not the divine skill he saw in his previous life, but a forced stealth escape skill? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?

Touching the dagger, Hermes' attributes popped up. Ignoring the growth changes of the attributes on the panel, he directly clicked on the column for the inlaid Essence and Steal skills. Three skills flashing red were neatly arranged in order: [Blood Blade], [Killing Intent Thrust], and [Divine Shadow Technique].

I've already seen the first two (PS: For details on Blood Moon's skills, please refer to the first half of Chapter 128). Only the last one needs confirmation.

Click on the expanded information, and the skills panel will appear.

【Divine Shadow Technique】(★SSS★)
Skill Category: Active Skill (Advanced)
Description: This is an exclusive assassination technique that the God of Slaughter, Lu Feng, comprehended when he ascended to godhood. This skill has gained the approval of the Supreme Ruler and has been enhanced with the power of sublimation.

Skill effect: After release, enter the [Ascended Stealth] state and simultaneously split into a [Divine Shadow Clone]. Skill cooldown is 30 seconds, and skill cost is zero.

[Ascended Stealth]: While in stealth, you are empowered by Ascended Power. Unless you attack or are hit, this state can only be detected by [Reconnaissance] skills that are empowered by [Ascended Power].

[Shadow Clone]: After stealthing, you can split into a [Shadow Clone] that is also in the [Ascended Stealth] state. The clone will inherit 100% of the original's attributes and is independent of the original's state. The clone only enters a cooldown after death, with a cooldown time of 1 day.

Features: [Divine Shadow Conversion], [Divine Shadow Avatar], [Divine Shadow Synchronization], [Divine Shadow Control]

【Divine Shadow Transformation】: Links to a clone, allowing you to transform into the clone anytime, anywhere. The transformation range includes location and status. Cooldown time is 20 seconds. No cost.

【Divine Shadow Avatar】: Completely removes the restrictions on the clone. The clone will transform into a warrior with an intelligence level of [10] to fight the target. Cooldown time: 20 seconds. Cost: None.

【Divine Shadow Synchronization】: Completely replicates the behavior of the original body. In this state, the clone and the original body merge into one another, sharing both glory and loss; cooldown time is 20 seconds, no cost.

【Divine Shadow Control】: Completely retains the restrictive power of the clone. The clone will be under the absolute control of the main body and act according to the main body's will. Cooldown time: 20 seconds. Cost: None.

……

The skill text, so long and narrow it's astonishing, unfolds before your eyes. After reading it all, the only thing you can feel is how awesome it is.

Putting aside the skill effects, the so-called "Power of Sublimation" alone broadened his horizons once again.

It turns out that there really is something beyond the 3S skill, or rather, this kind of skill can only be controlled by NPCs; the reason he was able to acquire it is entirely due to the powerful special effects of the Supreme Artifact; thus, this also proves the terrifying privilege of the Supreme Artifact that surpasses everything.

"Give it a try!" Ling Chuan muttered to himself, grasped Hermes, and in a flash, completed the operation command.

Divine Shadow Technique!

Whoosh!
Shadows gathered, swept and enveloped, and the whole world seemed to be shrouded in a veil of mist in an instant. Every scene dimmed a bit. Undoubtedly, this was the sensory manifestation of entering a stealth state.

It's worth noting that while this sensory ability may seem incredibly cool at first glance, it actually limits the overly powerful first-strike capability of [Stealth]. After all, a dimly lit scene weakens visual perception, forcing assassin players to concentrate more intently to pinpoint the enemy's weak points.

However, this restriction was ineffective for him because of his racial talent of having black eyes. The darkness was absolutely immune to visual images, so he could move as if it were broad daylight while in stealth!
His gaze shifted, and a figure shrouded in mist appeared beside him in the empty space. Through the mist, he could see the clone's appearance. Its clothing and appearance were identical to his own. In particular, the clone was not yet under the control of the original body, and it displayed a cold and domineering demeanor. Its expression and temperament were so handsome that even the neighbor's kids would not want to play with it!
Disengage stealth!

As soon as the command was issued, his stealth state vanished instantly, and the dark mist covering his body dissipated in a flash. However, when he looked back, the shadow clone's stealth state was still present, completely unaffected by him. This also put into practice the setting that "the clone and the main body are independent of each other".

"Divine Shadow Transformation!"

brush!
With a thought, the scene before him flashed by in an instant. The positions of the main body and the clone were switched. But strangely, the stealth state that had been dispelled returned to his main body, and the dissipated dark mist enveloped his body again. Turning his head to look at the position where the main body had been, the clone was standing there calmly, his elegant figure untouched by any dust. His stealth state had disappeared.

In this way, the claim in "Shadow Transformation" that the state of the body will be transferred after the shadow master is swapped has been verified.

Based on this alone, the skill's effectiveness is worthy of the title "Ascension Skill"!

For a simple example, if you are controlled by the enemy's control chain in a later battle, you can use the Divine Shadow Transformation to switch places with your clone and escape unscathed.

Furthermore, he had an even bolder conjecture: the "state" described in the feature's description didn't specify its severity. Did this mean that lethal effects inflicted by NPCs or hostile NPCs could also be neutralized by this? For example, the [Assassin Guild Kill Order] that Lu Feng had just placed on him…

"Hey, you're overthinking it."

Ling Chuan asked himself the question and then smiled self-deprecatingly. If he could really achieve this, he would be a walking bug with a near 100% margin for error.

Rejecting this audacious idea, Ling Chuan then unleashed [Divine Shadow Avatar], [Divine Shadow Synchronization], and [Divine Shadow Control] one by one.

Compared to the multifaceted effects of [Divine Shadow Transformation], the other three are perfect combat characteristics. Divine Shadow Avatar is basically using shadow clones as summoned beasts to fight autonomously, with a high degree of intelligence.

The Divine Shadow Synchronization means synchronization; whatever he does, his clone does too. The only drawback is that activating this feature will abandon the independence between the main body and the clone, sharing both good and bad fortune, in short, the Harmony Mode.

The effects of [Divine Shadow Control] and [Divine Shadow Avatar] are opposite. The analogy is that the master controls the beast's actions to perform dual operations. In short, he can only draw two conclusions from this skill: it is an all-around skill with infinite possibilities and infinite limits!
And the almost 100% successful infiltration plan into the Demon Temple.

It's a bit late, but thankfully I've finished writing. See you during the day.
