One skill point per second, I turn fireballs into forbidden spells.

Chapter 1091 Reunion in a Foreign Land
The progress of Xi Yue and her three friends can be described as miraculous.

Lin Yi used his concealment skill to stay in the shadows and watch the battle.

They thought they would need to take action themselves to keep the right to use the Azure Star, but unexpectedly, Xi Yue and the other three solved all the problems perfectly with their own abilities.

The four were cleaning up the battlefield when Lin Yi appeared, clapping his hands.

"I was hoping to help you fix your oversight, but I didn't expect that all this trip would be for nothing."

After a long time apart, Xi Yue was overwhelmed with excitement upon their reunion. Forgetting all about her image as a female warrior, she rushed forward and threw herself into Lin Yi's arms.

The same applies to Xiao Aoshu.

Having been separated from Lin Yi for so long, I miss him dearly.

She is making progress every day and has a lot to say to Lin Yi, about her recent achievements and how she can help him with many things.

As she pounced on Lin Yi, she was no longer the female killing machine she had been moments before; instead, she resembled a cute little sister next door.

Nangong Ling hesitated for a moment, but still did not step forward.

There was an undisguised sense of loss in her eyes. Sometimes, she really couldn't understand why she had been so cowardly back then. She was the one who met Lin Yi first, but she had never clearly expressed her feelings.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Lin Yi got down to business.

Besides offering assistance, Lin Yi also needed to travel to a higher plane.

Both external artifacts, when enhanced to +100, can activate a powerful attribute that greatly enhances the user's strength.

Even the old man Gongshu couldn't upgrade his equipment to +100; upgrading it to +99 was already his current limit.

Aside from external artifacts, upgrading mythical equipment to +99 seems to be more useful.

The three divine flower sets that Lin Yi has collected, once upgraded to +99, will basically unlock the powerful abilities of mythical equipment. Given Gongshu's current capabilities, he can certainly spend some time helping Lin Yi achieve this, greatly enhancing Lin Yi's combat power.

Why did Gongshu De choose to strengthen the external artifact first, given the scarcity of enhancement materials?

For enhancement masters, the maximum enhancement level of a piece of equipment cannot be determined solely by enhancement skills.

Besides enhancement techniques, there are several other crucial factors in order to upgrade a piece of equipment to the highest possible level.

Firstly, it's about the grade of the enhancement material, which is basically high-grade enhancement source crystal.

Before meeting Gongshu De, Lin Yi had never heard of this material.

Having this high-level enhancement source crystal can greatly increase the probability of equipment enhancement in subsequent high-level enhancements. It doesn't mean that the success rate of enhancing equipment with high-level enhancement source crystal will greatly increase after the equipment enhancement level reaches +80 or above.

It is indeed possible to achieve this using ordinary reinforcement materials, but the probability of failure is still quite high.

Equipment that has been enhanced to +80 or higher will be highly likely to be destroyed if the enhancement fails. Mythic equipment is less of a problem; if you don't mind the hassle, you can just farm a new one if the enhancement fails.

However, since this is a unique piece of equipment, its enhancement level must be guaranteed.

Obtaining a large number of high-level enhanced source crystals is of particular importance.

Lin Yi urgently needs this material. Old Man Gongshu certainly has it; having worked for Anxing for so many years, he has collected a considerable amount of high-level enhancement source crystals.

However, if there's only outflow and no inflow, the material will eventually run out, so Lin Yi has to find it.

Secondly, the level of understanding of the equipment also plays a significant role in equipment enhancement.

Lin Yi was fine. With his all-seeing eye and fiery eyes, he could clearly observe the internal condition of the equipment. Even if he took over a piece of equipment from another enhancement master and continued to enhance it, he could perfectly take over the previous enhancement master's rhythm and enhance the equipment in the best condition.

However, this would be a troublesome problem for other enhancement masters.

They need to spend a lot of time finding the location of each array on the equipment to avoid problems when opening the gaps, array conflicts, and failure of the enhancement.

Besides the two points mentioned above, the skill level of the enhancement master, the method of engraving the array, and even the intensity of the flame will all affect the success rate of enhancement.

His own Divine River Ode could be strengthened to +99, while the old man Gongshu had already burned out.

The difference in enhancement level alone can lead to vastly different effects; only by enhancing to +100 can the special effects of the Divine River Ode be unlocked.

"Look, the current Divine River Ode is covered with countless golden patterns, and its attributes are much stronger than before. However, this artifact has not undergone a qualitative change. As you should know, no matter how high the numerical value is, if the divine power level is not up to par, it will be difficult to play a role in attacking."

As he spoke, Lin Yi showed everyone the +99 Divine River Ode in his hand.

The other three were alright; since they weren't enhancement masters, they weren't particularly interested in the +99 enhanced equipment. However, Sun Dachuan, being an enhancement master, had his eyes light up when he saw the equipment with such a high enhancement level.

Even though the Divine River Ode exudes a chilling aura that makes one's heart tremble, and even though this chilling aura would still have some effect on Sun Dachuan when the Divine River Ode is restrained, Sun Dachuan still doesn't take it to heart.

Holding the Divine River Ode in his hands, he observed it intently.

"You did a great job this time. The precious resources of Sapphire Blue Star have been preserved. Your cultivation has been interrupted. Do you want to continue, or do you want to come with me to the higher realm to find the high-level enhancement source crystal? Think about it."

“Staying here isn’t a bad idea. I’ve thought about it carefully. Since the two planets have so many similarities, the Abyss Dungeon on this planet should also yield some good weapons and equipment. With your current strength, obtaining mythical equipment might not be a problem.”

What Lin Yi said is indeed quite right.

If they could acquire a complete set of mythical equipment that suited them, it would be a good way for all four of them to increase their strength.

They really had no interest in acquiring the external artifact.

Lin Yi is the chosen one, they don't have that kind of confidence.

Being able to wear a complete set of mythical equipment was the best possible outcome for the four of them.

"I have to go there myself."

Before the other three could answer, Sun Dachuan immediately stepped forward.

As an enhancement master, he naturally wanted to see what a high-level enhancement source crystal looked like.

How could he not be interested in a technology that was enhanced to +99? He definitely had to go and see it.

Xiao Ao Shu wanted to go on an adventure with Lin Yi, but she knew very well that equipment could greatly enhance her strength. Staying on this Blue Star to grind dungeons, break records, and obtain a set of mythical equipment that suited her would allow her to maximize her strength in a short period of time.
