From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 469 Class: [Astral Sword Saint]

The Star Tomb is filled with the remains of the ancestors of both races, and anyone can imagine the fierce battle that once took place here.

Centuries have passed, and no one knows if there are any terrible things lurking here.

Therefore, Sona cast a spell, summoning more than a dozen water elementals, who then split up to explore the depths of the Star Tomb.

The four of them then entered the Star Tomb and began examining the skeletons.

Some skeletons were cut in two, and some had their chests pierced by something terrible, with holes clearly visible in their ribs.

When Sorelville Bronzeforge saw the tragic deaths of his ancestors, he pieced their bones back together so that these valiant warriors would not be separated from their heads.

Sona was holding a siren pendant as she walked inside, silently praying for her deceased kin.

Lu Heng walked up to the huge skeleton, circled it twice, and carefully observed its shape.

The skeleton was very tall, kneeling on one knee, with one hand supporting it on the ground and the other hand broken off. The broken arm was still holding a serrated weapon, which was stuck diagonally in the ground.

In addition to the limbs, the skeleton also had three pairs of wings, with two wings broken off from one side.

In addition, this skeleton also had a pair of horns.

Based on the shape of the skeleton, it is definitely not human, nor any known race.

The being that could inspire the Dark Iron Dwarves and the Sirens to join forces against must not belong to any allied faction.

Sona walked up to the skeleton, reached out and touched the handle of the Poseidon's Scepter embedded in the skeleton's knee, and said:

“This is my clan’s scepter of the sea god, and I’m going to pull it out.”

Lu Heng raised his hand and said, "Wait a moment. Although a long time has passed, it's uncertain what will happen if we pull out the scepter."

Sona naturally understood what Lu Heng was worried about, and nodded in agreement, "We can wait a little longer, but I must take this staff handle back with me."

This is why she was willing to come along; now that she had found the handle of the Scepter of the Sea God, she could no longer leave it here.

Lu Heng agreed, "Of course, but we need to be cautious. Have you confirmed that there are no other threats inside the Star Tomb?"

Sona nodded and replied, "I did not detect anything unusual with the water elementals I summoned."

Since no special sensory ability users were brought along this time, Sona and Hogre will be responsible for part of the reconnaissance mission.

Although there are no specialized perceivers, those who reach the level of a high priest of the Siren race still possess strong reconnaissance capabilities.

The Dark Iron Clan High Priest Hogrey is in a similar situation; he has already used reconnaissance magic to confirm the situation inside the Star Tomb, adding:

“I’ve checked it too, there are no other threats in the Star Tomb.”

"it is good."

Lu Heng nodded, walked over to the serrated weapon, and examined it closely.

This serrated weapon is enormous; after all, the user is over ten meters tall, and the weapon, planted diagonally in the ground, is seven or eight meters high.

The serrations on the surface are all 30 centimeters long, and even after many years, the sharp edge can still be seen on the undusted lower edge.

Lu Heng reached out and brushed the dust off the weapon, then saw its attributes.

Astral Sawtooth

Item Level: Demigod

[Specifications: Length 10.6 meters, blade width 1.2 meters, weight 1050 kilograms]

【Attribute: Attack Power 1850】

[Special Effects: Astral Slice, Thunder Resonance, Master's Will, Giant Blade, Energy Siphon]

[Divine Skill 1: Spatial Collapse]

[Divine Skill 2: Gravitational Tides]

[Divine Skill 3: Source Deprivation]

Upon seeing the weapon's attributes, Lu Heng's eyes widened in surprise.

This is actually a demigod-level weapon, with a total of five special effects and three divine skills, each of which is incredibly powerful.

Upon seeing that this was a demigod weapon, Lu Heng was greatly amazed, but he had no intention of taking it for himself.

Because demigod-level weapons all possess unique characteristics, they cannot be used by just anyone who obtains them.

If not handled properly, it may even damage oneself.

Unless you are also a demigod, don't try to seize another demigod's weapon, or you'll die without even knowing how.

Moreover, this serrated weapon, exceeding ten meters in length, is completely unsuitable for human use.

Sona and Soreville Bronzeforge also came over to inspect the weapon, both with similar expressions.

Sona cautioned, "A demigod's weapon cannot be taken away, even if the demigod is dead. Moreover, the existence of this weapon means that this skeleton was likely a demigod when it was alive. Even now that it is dead, it is still in danger."

Lu Heng thought so too, so he proposed an idea: "Separate the skeletons and weapons first, keep them far apart, so that if anything unexpected happens, we'll have more time to deal with it."

Soreville Copperfurnace agreed, then climbed to the top of the serrated weapon to break the bone in the hand holding the sword.

As expected, it was completely impossible to bend.

Soreville Bronzeforge took out the Black Iron Clan's warhammer and smashed it down with a "bang." The hand that was holding the sword only shook off a lot of dust and remained completely unharmed.

Sona cautioned, "These are the remains of a demigod; it's very difficult to destroy them."

"Let me try."

As Lu Heng spoke, he drew the Aurora Blade, activated his fourth-tier class ability [Divine Judgment], and began to charge up his power.

The fourth job advancement, [Blade of Judgment], has another nickname: "Godslayer," possessing the ability to destroy divine beings.

Lu Heng used [Divine Judgment] to kill another demigod before, and it will certainly work on the skeleton of a dead demigod.

Having fully charged up, Lu Heng unleashed a powerful Crack Slash.

Bang!
The sword light pierced into the demigod's hand bones, and the hard bones shattered with a crash.

The entire Star Tomb trembled the moment the hand bone shattered.

Immediately afterwards, the four of them pulled the Astral Sawtooth from the ground and moved it to a corner of the main hall.

This [Astral Sawtooth] only weighs one ton, but it takes four people working their hardest to move it.

A weapon weighing one ton is naturally terrifying in weight, but for advanced warriors like Lu Heng and Soreville Copper Furnace, if no other factors are involved, one person can move it.

Therefore, this situation also shows that, in addition to its weight, there are other unknown reasons why this demigod weapon is difficult to move.

Lu Heng also tried to put it into his inventory, but as expected, he couldn't.

The reason is simple: this is a weapon that possesses the will of another demigod, so it is impossible for other life forms to store it in their storage space.

For this reason, Lu Heng temporarily gave up the idea of ​​taking the demigod weapon with him.

This weapon can't be put into the inventory, which means that if you want to take it with you, you'll have to carry it around.

Carrying a ten-meter-long weapon around is incredibly troublesome, as anyone can imagine.

More importantly, this weapon cannot be brought back to Earth.

Therefore, the only option is to give up.

Perhaps if I become a demigod in the future, I can come back and take another look. Maybe by then, I'll have a way to deal with this weapon.

After removing the Astral Sawtooth, the four rested for a moment before returning to the demigod's skeleton. Sona took out the Heart of the Tide and said, "I'm going to pull out the staff."

Lu Heng nodded in agreement: "Okay, we'll be prepared."

Soreville Bronzeforge and Archmage Hogrey were also on high alert, ready to respond to any unexpected situations.

Sona inlaid the Heart of the Tide into the staff handle, restoring the Scepter of the Sea God to its complete form.

She raised her hands, chanted a spell, and then exerted force from a distance to slowly pull the scepter of the sea god from the skeleton's knees.

The process of pulling it out was very slow.

About ten minutes later, the Scepter of the Sea God emitted a buzzing sound, flew out from the knee of the demigod skeleton, and landed in Sona's hand.

After the scepter of Neptune was pulled out, all around remained silent.

The four held their breath and observed their surroundings, but after a long while, nothing changed.

Soreville Copper Furnace exhaled and said, "It seems there's no danger."

Just as the four of them breathed a sigh of relief, the Star Tomb suddenly began to shake.

The four men immediately became alert, gripped their weapons tightly again, and stood ready for battle.

Just then, the demigod's skeleton began to tremble, and the leg that had been kneeling on one knee slowly stood up.

He stood up straight and roared to the sky.

The demigod weapon, Astral Sawtooth, which had been moved several hundred meters away, seemed to be summoned and flew up toward the demigod skeleton.

Lu Heng's gaze sharpened, and he pointed to the incoming [Astral Sawtooth], shouting, "Quick! Stop the weapon!"

Sona reacted immediately, casting a spell to release the Scepter of Poseidon, which collided with the Astral Saw.

Bang!
The clash between the two demigod-level weapons created a powerful shockwave.

The Astral Sawtooth rammed into the Scepter of Neptune and continued flying toward the demigod's skeleton.

The demigod skeleton raised his right hand to catch the weapon.

However, when he raised his hand, he didn't catch the weapon; the Astral Saw flew past him.

Because his hand was gone; it had been chopped to pieces by Lu Heng before he woke up.

Roar!
The demigod skeleton roared once more, and Lu Heng unleashed a sword strike he had been preparing for.

With the power of [Divine Judgment] condensed, the strongest attack, Wind Dragon's Breathless Slash, combining the power of Rift Slash, was unleashed.

The Rift Wind Dragon took shape and cleaved into the demigod's skeletal body.

The newly awakened demigod skeleton, before it could even unleash its power, was shattered into pieces by the attack of [Divine Judgment].

Lu Heng had already killed the Skeleton Monarch who had gained the power of the Abyss, and now what was in front of him was just a demigod skeleton that had been killed. It couldn't withstand the Wind Dragon's Breath Slash after being empowered by [Divine Judgment].

As the sword light struck, the demigod's skeleton shattered into dozens of fragments.

Soreville Copper Furnace and Hogrey immediately joined the attack, blasting the shattered bones into dust.

Destroy Helgador's demigod remains and absorb 80000 energy.

[Source Energy Level Upgraded to Level 52, All Attributes +6, Agility Attribute +1.8]

[Ended the demigod body, absorbed 8000 points of divine energy.]

Lu Heng's original -130 points of divine energy instantly became an integer and rapidly increased to 7870 points.

After the demigod's skeleton shattered, a piece of primal essence was extracted.

Lu Heng reached out and grabbed it to examine it; it was none other than the fifth-tier Origin Essence [Astral Traveler].

This source essence was Lu Heng's purpose in coming here. There's nothing more to say; he simply absorbed it.

[Acquire the "Astral Traveler" Source Essence and begin the Source Essence competition.]

[Source-Material Fusion Completion Rate: 56%]

[Original essence is in a free state. Once the fusion completion rate reaches 100%, a fifth-tier job can be obtained.]

[Temporarily gained the Source Ability: Astral Travel]

The demigod skeleton contained a large amount of source matter, and after absorption, the fusion rate directly reached 56%.

Although the fusion level is high, without other fifth-generation source materials to supplement the fusion level, it is still impossible to obtain the complete direct.

Moreover, it is estimated that this is the only source of fifth-order source material that humans can obtain at present.

If it weren't for getting the strongest members of the Siren Clan and the Black Iron Dwarves to help, we wouldn't have been able to obtain this source essence at all.

Even three years after the Abyss descended, there were only a handful of human ability users who had reached the fifth job rank.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, it is easy to imagine how difficult it would be to obtain a complete fifth job advancement at this point in time.

However, this is true for others; for Lu Heng, it's not difficult.

The last time I killed the demigod-level Skeleton Lord in the Elf World, when I split open the Dark Crystal Skull, a piece of divine essence was extracted.

This piece of divine essence has been unused for a long time, and now it comes in handy.

Lu Heng directly extracted the divine essence and absorbed it into his body, fusing it with the essence of the [Star Traveler].

[Absorbing divine essence increases the fusion level of essence, and the essence's abilities gain a divine transformation effect.]

[Source-Material Integration Ratio: 100%]

[The fusion of source essence is complete, and the class rank has merged, advancing to the fifth-tier class rank "Astral Sword Saint".]

[Astral Sword Saint: A special class that combines the abilities of "Astral Traveler" and "Sword Saint," possessing the immense power to traverse the astral plane and cleave through the void; wherever their swords pass, even the stars give way.]

[Astral Travel (Apocryphal): The Astral Traveler possesses the ability to traverse astral planes, freely moving between worlds where spatial beacons have been established, and has mastered the ability to traverse, stabilize, and close rifts. Apocryphal Effect: Opens a stargate, allowing companions to be teleported.]

[Sword Saint's Way (Divine Transformation): Enhances all sword-related abilities, including Wind Dragon's Breathless Slash, Soaring Dragon's Sky Hunt, and Spatial Combo Slash (Modified). Divine Transformation Effect: Rift Slash is enhanced, requiring no Source Energy.]

Half an hour later, Lu Heng's fifth job advancement, [Astral Sword Saint], was finally fully fused.

Upon seeing the merged class-specific abilities, Lu Heng's breathing became heavier.

This class is ridiculously overpowered.

Especially after gaining the divine effect, Lu Heng felt a bit scared.

The divine effect of [Astral Travel] allows for direct teleportation via stargates.

The divine effect of [Sword Saint's Way] directly turns [Rift Slash] into a regular skill.

Originally, the [Rift Slash] required consuming source energy, and one had to wait for the energy to recover after each use.

Now it's not necessary; just use it as regular swordsmanship.

This means that as long as physical strength and source energy are not exhausted, one can perform infinite Rift Slashes.

In other words, every Wind Dragon's Breath Slash from now on will carry the power of Rift Slash, and Rift Wind Dragon will make the opponent understand what destruction is.

Once you obtain this rank, you no longer need to rely on the [Order of Time and Space Orb] to leave.

After Sona and Soreville Bronzeforge had placed the remains of their people, they closed the Star Tomb door again.

Lu Heng used the divine ability of [Astral Travel] to open a stargate and take them away from the Sea of ​​Chaos.
