Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 525: Three Phases of Convergence: Heart of Chaos
After making such plans and decisions, Luo Xiu turned his attention back to his personal panel.

He fixed his eyes on the level bar of the [Glorious] profession "Holy Winged Messenger" lv.60, and at the same time gave the panel the command to "upgrade".

[Current main occupation "Holy Winged Envoy" invests 30254425 experience points]

[The current main occupation "Holy Winged Envoy" has been upgraded to lv.61! ]

[Get 30 free attribute points! ]

【…】

[Current main occupation "Holy Winged Envoy" invests 48276911 experience points]

[The current main occupation "Holy Winged Envoy" has been upgraded to lv.70! ]

[Get 30 free attribute points! ]

【…】

After investing nearly 70 million experience points in total, Luo Xiu upgraded his "Holy Winged Messenger" level to lv.!

This was already an important turning point in the "Sixth Fate". The experience points required to upgrade to the next level doubled again, and the experience points required to upgrade from lv.71 to lv.72 reached million.

This is indeed a terrifying astronomical figure... Luo Xiu thought.

He was a little sad.

Because in the previous life, the time when the "Sixfold Destiny" was truly opened in the game was when "God's Destiny" reached version 4.0.

4.0 New version [Resurrection of the Age of Gods]——It is a version where gods are everywhere and monsters are rampant.

By that time, the various ways to gain experience points and the amount of experience points increased significantly, and it took me nearly two years to level up from level 61 to level 80 as a player in my previous life.

In fact, the version of [Resurrection of the Age of Gods] has lasted for almost two years, and it will be followed by a more important version, version 5.0 of [The Advent of the Evil God].

And now the time it would take for him to upgrade from level 60 to level 71... Luo Xiu calculated that it would only take about half a month.

The "Spiritual Fountain" and the advantage of foresight, as well as the inexhaustible experience field called "Player", are indeed too advanced compared to the current late 1.0 stage...

And when the Judgment War is over, and you are able to reap the profits of another wave of players, you can apply to the "Holy Court" for the [Key of the Stars]. Perhaps you can try to achieve the promotion from the "Sixth Destiny" to the "Seventh Destiny" within a month!
There was a gleam in Luo Xiu's eyes as he was thinking about this.

His gaze was still on his panel, waiting for new content to appear.

When the prompt of the level being raised to lv.70 on the panel passed, the light and shadow were still floating, revealing new content——

[First Destiny [Glory], main profession "Holy Winged Envoy" professional level increased to lv.70]

[Depending on the profession "Holy Winged Envoy", the special correction you get is improved! ]

[Your main attribute is "divinity"]

[Choose two of the five attributes from "Health", "Mana", "Physical Attack", "Magic Attack" and "Defense Reduction" for special corrections and improvements]

【…】

——New "Special Correction Improvement"!
After the sixth level of destiny, every time you cross the 10-level bottleneck, you can get an additional boost, just like a real promotion.

This was called "minor advancement" by the players in the previous life, and it was also after level 70 that players could obtain a new "level protection". Every 10 levels, they would no longer be demoted to a level below the "level protection" due to death penalty.

This "level protection" mechanism only protects the lowest level of the corresponding destiny level before the "fifth level of destiny".

Because since the "Sixth Destiny", for normal players, the experience points required for each level up have become astronomical figures.

For example, the [Grand and Sacred Expedition] that Luo Xiu had just completed perfectly, the reward of nearly seven million experience points was only enough to increase the initial level of the "Sixth Destiny" by one-fourth to one-fifth.

In other words, players in the previous life had to complete fifty [Grand and Sacred Expeditions] to reach lv.70, and they had to complete nearly two hundred times to reach lv.80 and prepare to advance to the "Seventh Level of Destiny".

This "level protection" mechanism was widely recognized by players at the time. However, it actually had nothing to do with Luo Xiu now.

Luo Xiu's attention was still focused on the new [Special Correction Improvement] displayed on the panel.

Choose two out of the five basic attributes to improve, Luo Xiu chose "Health" and "Spell Attack".

- Om!

The moment the panel gave the selection result, Luo Xiu heard a buzzing sound in his ears. Then, he felt the spirituality in his body gradually boiling and becoming more active than ever before!

A warm feeling spread all over his body, and at the same time, new content appeared on Luo Xiu's panel -

[You choose "Health" and "Spell Attack" to get additional special corrections]

【你的主属性为“神性”，你获得补正提升：你每有1点“神性”，额外获得的20点生命值提升为30点、2点法术攻击提升为3点。】

【…】

- Om!

The moment the results appeared on the panel.

The text content soon became mottled, and the values ​​of "health points" and "spell attacks" in the character panel began to expand rapidly.

The expansion finally ended when the "health value" exceeded one million and the "spell attack" exceeded two hundred thousand.

And in Luo Xiu's real physical sensation, a trace of power was rising like steam.

He felt a new sense of power and vigorous vitality pouring into him, and his control over spirituality, especially the divine spirit of [Glory], had reached a deeper and more subtle level.

Within one day, after completing the [Grand and Sacred Expedition], Luo Xiu could clearly feel that his own strength had increased by about a small amount.

Compared to when he was just promoted to the "Sixth Level Destiny", his strength has doubled or even tripled.

Now, he could truly compete with the two top saints in the expeditionary force, the "Knight of Heaven's Word" Stuart, and the "Paladin of Heaven's Ring" Davild in terms of levels and stats!
Even his own "health value" has exceeded Stuart's, and his durability is undoubtedly the best in the expeditionary force!

Although Luo Xiu didn't know how he had developed to this level, it didn't matter.

Confused, understanding, and obedient.

Although numerical monsters generally have a very bad reputation among players, which is considered to be a plan of Pegasus - but if the numerical monster is yourself, that’s another story.

Luo Xiu thought about these things with great pleasure.

After that, he closed the panel, got up from the bed, smoothed his holy robe, and walked out of the room.

While the "Holy Knight of the Sky Ring" was acting as the archbishop, he could handle the "sacred" but extremely tedious affairs of the church on his behalf within three days.

He could also take some time to return to the "Holy Abyss" to help the "False Guardian" Amber complete his promotion. Planning the next step, Luo Xiu had walked out of the room and came to the corridor of the palace in the other courtyard.

He saw a royal knight and a clergyman standing at a certain distance on both sides of the corridor.

When the royal guards and clergy stationed here saw the "Archbishop" Ross Carlos walk out of his recuperation room, they all respectfully offered Ross the [Supreme] and [Glorious] sacrament.

Luo Xiu nodded slightly and responded to their greetings with a smile.

At the same time, he walked forward until he walked out of the corridor of the manor palace, and saw his waiter priest, the "guide priest" Colen, outside the main gate and in the courtyard.

When Colen saw that "Archbishop" Luo Xiu had woken up and walked out of the rest room, a moment of surprise and joy appeared on his face. He walked quickly towards Luo Xiu and respectfully performed the sacrament to him.

"Greetings, Archbishop."

Colen greeted Luo Xiu respectfully and devoutly:

"It is a great blessing to see you well. May the Sun bless you forever, Archbishop."

"Yeah." Luo Xiu nodded slightly and responded to him with a smile.

After thinking for a while, Luo Xiu instructed Kelun again:
"Now, Lord Davild is handling the affairs of the church for me. I am temporarily free, and I am going to conduct some investigations in those sealed 'scars'."

"You stay here, Coren. If anyone comes looking for me, tell them this."

"..."

"I will obey your orders, Archbishop."

Colen bowed and saluted. Then Luo Xiu walked out of the courtyard of Rochester Manor, and soon his back disappeared from Colen's sight.

……

Val Fortress, inner city.

Luo Xiu has arrived in the "Scar" restricted area sealed by the "Sky Ring Paladin" Davild, and is staring at the devastated scene that catches his eyes.

Within the restricted area of ​​the "Scar", almost all buildings have collapsed and been destroyed, and the original military base has been completely reduced to ruins.

The mutilated corpses of the Dark Army and the Abyss Beasts could be seen everywhere, and even the blood flowing from their bodies was gathering in ditches and had not dried up yet.

And beneath or around those "ruins", the devastated and scarred land suddenly cracked into overlapping deep cracks, which still exuded an extremely deep and bone-corrosive spiritual aura.

That is the "scar" - hundreds of "scars" of varying sizes are imprinted on the ground, and its surface is covered with a layer of shining golden barrier, which is the sacred seal imposed on those "scars" by the "Sky Ring Paladin".

Fafnir, the "Dragon of Destruction", not only hid tens of thousands of "Abyss Beasts" outside the fortress, but also hid even more underground in the core area of ​​the fortress.

Luo Xiu knew all this, but this was the first time he saw the full view of these "wounds" with his own eyes.

At the beginning of the expeditionary force's siege on the Val Fortress, he had the executioners who were the "Apostles of the Holy Abyss", Koros, Bakad and Samanthaya "open" these scars, allowing the large number of Abyss beasts stored in them to flow back into the core urban area of ​​the Val Fortress.

This immediately caused the garrison arrangements within the Val Fortress to collapse in an instant.

Although it took some time for the expeditionary force stationed in Val Fortress to eliminate the wandering Abyss Beasts, compared to the damage they caused to Fafnir and the Dark Army originally stationed in Val Fortress, it was still worth the trouble to eliminate them afterwards.

Luo Xiu was thinking about this.

However, in fact, at least now, his goal is not to truly investigate the abyss beasts and demons sealed under these "scars".

The ban that Davild had issued previously was that no one, including all clergymen, could enter the forbidden area without permission. This left no one around these "scars", making this the most suitable place for Luo Xiu to teleport back to the "Holy Abyss".

It was under the ruins of a building that had already become a ruin.

Luo Xiu stood in the shadow, making sure that no one would come here rashly, so he let the "Eye of the Lunar Eclipse" split into a foggy shadow at night, and placed it on a broken beam as a surveillance. Then he raised his right hand, and the deep red mark of the sword and dragon claw appeared on the back of his hand.

After activating the [Seal of the Isol Royal Court], a deep red teleportation array appeared under Luo Xiu's feet. Several circles were flashing with mottled, deep red light, and Luo Xiu's figure became illusory and blurred between the flickering and disappearing lights. Soon, he completely disappeared in the real world.

……

Until the mottled colors gradually return to view.

Luo Xiu felt the real touch again - he had arrived above the "Holy Abyss" and was sitting on the golden throne that belonged to him, the "Lord of the Holy Abyss".

At the bottom of the royal court, there stood a slender figure emitting a gloomy aura. It was the "Faceless" Index.

Before Luo Xiu was ready to teleport himself to the "Holy Abyss", he gave an order to Index in advance, asking her to go to the workshop of the "Ghost Craftsman" Balin and dispatch other Holy Abyss apostles to move the "Steel Furnace" for him from the workshop.

Now, the red copper furnace that was like a giant crucible was placed in the center of the King's Palace.

In that huge furnace, there was a gurgling sound of violent boiling. The surging deep red in it had already penetrated the barrier that he had previously cast on it, and a scarlet mist was steaming above the huge mouth of the furnace.

Luo Xiu could clearly feel that the temperature in the entire hall had risen by more than ten degrees due to the steel-burning furnace that had been moved in. Intis, who was closest to the furnace, had beads of sweat on her forehead, but she held back and did not raise her hand to wipe it off.

Luo Xiu looked at Index, then at the forge, then raised his right hand and turned his palm upwards.

A fine golden light appeared on his palm, and the golden barrier applied to the furnace was peeled off inch by inch and dissipated into mottled spirituality.

And the moment the seal was finally "lifted" by the one who cast it, the rich spirituality that had long been overflowing and surging within it suddenly burst out like a volcanic eruption!

--boom! ! !

The deep red light rose up almost to the sky.

Among them, the [Heart of the Silver-Blooded True Dragon Hogsmoth], which had been completely washed and purified to be almost colorless and transparent, was completely lifted up by the scarlet spirituality and was now suspended in the air.

The edge was wrapped in a cloud of spiritual aura that was azure in color. That was the soul of the "Hidden Sage" Hoffman, which had also been cleansed and purified, and after being smelted in the furnace for several days, it had perfectly completed the final fusion with the [Heart of the Silver-Blooded True Dragon Hogsmoth].

In Luo Xiu's panel detection of its final product, it appeared to be [Three-Phase Convergence·Heart of Chaos].

It contains three kinds of spirituality - the violent spirituality from the "Burning Steel Furnace" itself, the "Silver Blood Dragon" Hogsmos, and the quiet and profound spirituality from the "Hidden Sage" Hoffman.

That would indeed allow Amber, the "Guardian of Falsehood", to successfully upgrade to a "Chaos Spirit" with a high probability.

And the materials used to "sublimate" Him are of extremely high level... Maybe, Amber can be upgraded to a Chaos Spirit that is more powerful than the "Four-Winged Angel" Tatia and the "Mourning Lord" Sasseer!

Luo Xiu hoped so.
