Alone and Infinite.

Chapter 560 Light Gold Equipment!
In his personal space, Li Xia sat cross-legged on the soft carpet in the living room.

The core of the Divine Enemy Armor in front of them was at its most critical moment. The speed of the rings surrounding it was getting faster and faster, even reaching its limit, and creating one after another illusory image.

When it reached a certain limit, the halo shattered with a crash, and rings of radiance dissipated from it, enveloping the huge living room.

Countless points of light shimmer within, like a dream, like a starry sky, like a long river.

Li Xia silently extended his hand, and in an instant, the surrounding light seemed to be attracted by something, converging towards his palm.

Gradually, it coalesced into a familiar and magnificent crystal.

[Divine Enemy - Thousand-Scale Armor]

[Grade: Light Gold (Tier 4)]

【Origin: Hall of Light】

[Durability: 700/700]

[Defense Tier: 15 (Tier 4)]

[Equipment Requirements: Constitution 50, Physical Strength 8]

1. The barrier between man and god: The armor, after being bathed in divine blood, possesses a trace of divinity, and the area within three feet of the armor is considered to be the abode of the gods.

The closer you get to the armor, the greater the damage reduction. Unless the attack also possesses divine power, any attack will be weakened by 40% by the armor, and the suppression generated by divine attacks will be ineffective.

Attacks below a certain limit will be deflected.

2. Armor of Illusion and Reality: When not under attack, the armor will be in an ethereal state. After being attacked, it will transform into a physical form and can also be displayed freely according to the wearer's wishes.

It is bound to the wearer's soul and absorbs a fixed 20% of their maximum health and 20% of their maximum mana.

If the user possesses divinity, the maximum life value and maximum mana absorbed will be halved.

3. Heart of the Stone: Reflects 30%-60% of energy damage based on the angle of attack.

4. Reflection: The tough outer skin will reflect the force of direct physical attacks, up to a maximum of 40%.
6. Divine Enemy: Wearing this armor, one can face the majesty of the gods directly. Pouring divine blood onto the armor will promote its evolution.

[Synopsis: Only those who have defeated a god are qualified to wear this armor known as the 'Enemy of the Gods'. Who will be next?]

The magnificent crystal suddenly flew up on its own and entered Li Xia's body. A huge radiance emanated from his body and condensed into a pale golden armor on his body surface.

The once smooth surface is now inlaid with pieces of somewhat crystalline armor plates, which are the hardest bone inside the stone man's body.

Perhaps because it was infused with divine blood, the armor even had a human face relief on its chest.

The human face relief looked solemn and dignified, with its eyes closed. For some reason, Li Xia suddenly felt a strange sensation in his heart.

It seems that this human face must be the ancient god that I killed.

But this strange idea was quickly dispelled by the power of the Divine Enemy Armor.

Above the orange is gold.
This was Li Xia's first thought.

What powerful armor!
This is the second idea.

The God-Enemy Armor possesses a unique aesthetic appeal that blends mechanics and numerical values!

Li Xia even felt that after putting it on, it was like wearing a turtle shell, giving her an absolute sense of security.

Putting everything else aside, who else has a defense tier of 15?
The former resistance armor attribute has been replaced by the barrier between humans and gods, which is a super enhancement.

The original repulsive field could not actually withstand very strong things; even slightly stronger enemies could break through the field.

The most commonly used items were actually rain shields or flying stones. Perhaps ordinary bullets from modern firearms could also block them, but to be honest, those bullets wouldn't be able to penetrate Li Xia's defenses even if they were aimed at his chest.

Switch to 120mm armor-piercing rounds. These are powerful and might be able to penetrate armor, but given the difference in equipment level, it will be difficult.

Now it has become a barrier between humans and gods; it's more than just a leap.

Kazan's use of the barrier between humans and gods was so powerful that it almost traumatized Li Xia.

If it weren't for a final, desperate gamble, using everything available, it would have been impossible to break through that 'absolute defense'.

Even if the armor isn't as good as the original, it's still a very powerful attribute, reducing non-divine attacks by 40%, and then further reducing them with his demigod body.

If even 10% of the damage is dealt to you, you're lucky.

In particular, the statement that 'suppression caused by divine attacks is ineffective'.

Like his spear, the deity, due to his rank, has a significant reduction effect on damage or attacks from those of lower rank.

When the attacking unit is lower than your own, the damage will increase.

Just like Li Xia's own demigod body, it can withstand a considerable amount of damage.

Now that we have armor and weapons, we can say that we are barely on the same starting line as the gods, at least we are no longer suppressed when fighting or being fought.

Although the absorption limit has increased, it is still within an acceptable range. Once we obtain the high-coefficient avatar, why would we be afraid of this little bit of consumption?
Next is the attribute "Heart of the Stone Golem," which is born from the armor plates gathered by the Stone Golem and has considerable resistance to energy attacks.

This makes up for the previous weakness of the God Enemy Armor in dealing with energy attacks.

Furthermore, this armor can still evolve; it just needs to be infused with divine blood.

Li Xia felt that by simply having a few old gods "voluntarily donate blood" whenever they wanted, they could eventually pour out the complete barrier between humans and gods.

just
It's still not powerful enough!!
Even the most useless Old Gods, those who have fallen to the point of consuming third-tier worlds, are still gods!
A god completely different from wild deities like the Star God.

They can freely adjust their rank and move around freely. Even at the ninth rank, they are still top-tier ancient gods!

Surprisingly, I can only upgrade equipment to light gold. There are four other tiers above that: [Light Gold], [Gold], [Dark Gold], and [Gold Ultimate].

Moreover, as a third-tier being, even if the Temple of Light is incredibly powerful, it's impossible for me to completely devour the essence of the Old Gods.

If I actually swallowed it, wouldn't I instantly ascend to the ninth rank?
so----

Li Xia looked out the window at the sky, and through the clouds, he could vaguely see the extraordinary and magnificent protective shield of the Hall of Light.

It must be the Hall of Light taking kickbacks, right?

I don't know how much I'll draw yet. If the Old Gods are an ocean, I'm just a small puddle, not even a fishpond.

The Hall of Light is full!

However, that's how the rules are. Without the intervention of the Temple of Light, I probably wouldn't even be able to swallow this bit of essence. Do you really think the Old Gods are so easy to eat?
After a few sighs and some wild imaginings about the absurd scenario of me devouring all the old gods, I considered myself relaxed for the day.

That being said, if the Divine Enemy Armor were to be taken out, it would probably still be an equipment that would drive all fourth-tier, and even fifth-tier, apostles crazy.

Each attribute is exceptionally practical and powerful, far superior to the junk outside.

"Awoo, how's it going on your end?"

Li Xia walked out of the room. The training ground was now open to him for free, so he could go over and stretch his muscles.

Including the waiting time, at least several hours had passed. According to past practice, Xiaolong should have bought the item long ago. "They're still negotiating."

Xiao Long took a picture and showed the businessman in front of him, his face flushed, spitting as he spoke, his eyes glaring as if he wanted to eat someone alive.

"The beacon tokens of the Seeking Light world are quite sought after, and there are many different kinds. I didn't take any of the ones that were just for going to the Seeking Light world."

He has some good stuff, and he also has this one; I think you'll definitely like it, boss.

Xiao Long turned around and posted another panel. Li Xia glanced at it and was immediately captivated.

【Frosty Splendor】

[Grade: Light Orange (Tier 4)]

【Origin: Arctic Ice World】

[Durability: 200/200]

Damage Intensity: 11 (Tier 4)

[Attack: 150]

1. Frost Sword: The sword is covered with extremely cold frost. When it attacks, it will leave behind cold air that freezes the wound, preventing it from healing, and the cold air will congeal in the blood to form sharp ice spikes.

An ice spike is generated every 10-30 seconds (resistance is calculated).
Each ice spike deals 100 points of damage over time (resistance taken into account).
When the number of ice spikes exceeds 10, it will tear and paralyze the area where the ice spikes are located, causing bleeding damage.

Note: The ice spikes will melt due to the high temperature.
2. Sword of Transformation: The blade can be covered with ice, and the length and thickness of the blade can be freely adjusted.

The weapon type changes from 'short sword', 'rapier', 'light sword', 'long sword', 'great sword', and 'heavy sword' as the sword shape changes.

And different bonuses are obtained depending on the shape of the sword.

It can absorb cold air to restore itself after being broken.
3. Controlling Cold: Can release the coldness within the frost, creating a certain area of ​​extreme cold within the sword's range.

Being in a cold region will reduce the enemy's agility and speed, and cause 600 points of frost damage per second (resistance calculated).

Duration of the Extreme Cold Domain: 5 minutes
Cooldown time: 2 days

After liberation, effects 1 and 2 will be lost until the cold air is fully replenished.

[Synopsis: When the blade flashes, extreme cold follows.]

Where are you? I'm coming right now!

This sword is a bit flashy, such as the shape change in effect 2. Those apostles who use swords as a technique may indeed be able to use many types of swords.

But the one that is used most skillfully and best is definitely the one that is commonly used.

Li Xia liked it very much because when using a hiltless short sword, he could get the hiltless short sword bonus, and when fighting, he could use a long sword and get the long sword bonus.

Even though the sword itself is made of ice, if it is shattered, it will only be a 'broken blade' and will still be usable.

Therefore, this weakness is not a weakness for him.

Moreover, although Li Xia plays with fire, his flames are more like spiritual flames, not high-temperature flames in the conventional sense. They only ignite when facing negative monsters.

So this won't have any impact. Plus, it has good poke-type properties. If the price isn't outrageous, I'll definitely buy it!

Inside the café in the trading area, Li Xia nodded to the fuming merchant as a greeting.

Before he could even settle in, the merchant angrily said:
"Hey bro, no offense, but your entourage is way too much—"

Buy it or don't, I don't need any more customers. Goodness, they criticize the product as worthless, but when asked if they want it, they say yes.

I understand haggling, but this is the first time I've ever encountered such a blatant price cut.

Li Xia nodded and said calmly:

"Sorry, but we really want it. Make an offer."

The merchant was still furious, but both Li Xia and he knew that showing anger or denouncing the goods as worthless was just a tactic.

Everyone's goal is simply to pay more or less money, nothing more.

"This sword, along with the Seeking Light World Token, costs a total of 50 Hall Points. This is definitely a discounted price. Swords are popular weapons. Last time, someone offered 40, but I didn't sell it."

The merchant picked up his teacup and said confidently:
"I only gave you a discount because I get along well with my brother. Everyone has their own difficulties."

Upon hearing this, Li Xia's eyes flickered. Awoo rolled its eyes and spread its paws at Li Xia: Boss, do you know why I cursed him?

Five hundred thousand. Do you think I'm a fat sheep?

Even if the token is expensive, it's at most 100,000, and you can usually get it for 60,000 or 70,000. Even if you include the premium for fourth-tier equipment, this sword is probably only worth 200,000 or 300,000.

If it were at the third tier, the light orange sword might actually sell for 400,000, but this is at the fourth tier!

Pale orange is still precious, but it is no longer considered top-tier super-grade equipment!

Li Xia pondered for a moment, while Aowu on the other end had already spoken in the team channel:
"Boss, we still have about 800,000 Hall Points left. I spent over 100,000 to replenish the warehouse."

There were still plenty of points left in the hall, but even so, Li Xia didn't intend to pay a high price. After thinking for a while, under the merchant's gaze, he slowly said:
"20 million!"

"No----"

The merchant was furious. He had thought the person in charge would be more rational, but the price quoted was even more outrageous. He would lose 20, and for a merchant from a prestigious institution to lose money was more cruel than killing him!
"Add one of these."

Li Xia popped out a shiny Time-Space Coin. He didn't lack these; they were given out every time the game ended, making them a fairly stable source. Getting one or two wouldn't have any impact.

The merchant's eyes suddenly lit up with golden light, and with a speed completely disproportionate to his size, he reached out and caught the Time-Space Coin.

He smiled so hard his eyes narrowed. The Time-Space Copper Coin pendant was priced at 8 Hall Points each, but it was completely priceless and unavailable.

Including the transaction value, it definitely exceeds 100,000 Hall Points per coin. The key is that the Time-Space Copper Coin is just like real gold, and it will never depreciate!
"make a deal!"

Watching the merchant leave happily, Li Xia divided the remaining 600,000 among the three children:

“Upgrade your skills. I remember it’s been a while since you guys have upgraded your skills.”

Followers cannot directly use the Apostle's facilities to improve their skills, but there are still many ways. For example, the shop sells 'Follower Skill Training Scrolls' which can be used in specially crafted facilities.

Li Xia weighed the obsidian-like pendant in his hand; this was the beacon token for his journey to the World of Seeking Light.

Next, it’s time to wait.

------------

1. Monthly pass 2. Recommendation vote

With the built-in Deepseek feature in the Writer Assistant, finding things has become much easier.
P.S.: I forgot to mention before, after Night Silence is upgraded, it should be an increase in divinity, which means there will be no more damage suppression when fighting the incarnations of the old gods. Otherwise, like Li Xia, attacks without divinity are directly halved.

PS2: A new dungeon will start tomorrow. With the boost from frequent updates, it should be finished quickly.
