Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 877 5th Catastrophe

[EVF: 5 -> 755,256]

Lothur saw his EVF points reach the highest they had ever been, feeling the benefits of killing so many opponents with his bloodline ability.

Unfortunately, most of this city's demons had no remarkable powers. Many of them were only 1st stage beings with very low Constitutions. 

But even so, when combined into one value, those beings in this city had an absurd amount of EVF points to give to Lothur, which was why he had allowed the Sages outside this place to witness his action and then fled.

What mattered most to him now that he was on Demon Island was not the strongest of the race but the number of weak opponents who could provide him with EVF points.

When Lothur saw the amount of points at his disposal, he didn't hesitate to turn them into Soul points.

[35,000 points added to SOU at a cost of 700,000 EVF.]

[Name: Lothur Ritter]

[Physique: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger]

[Bloodline: Life Devourer]

[Soul Cultivation: level 25 -> 26]

[Body Cultivation: level 25]

[STR: 12,508] [CON: 69,816] 

[DEX: 14,706] [AGI: 15,805] 

[INT: 2,577] [PER: 13,047] 

[WIL: 5,850] [SOU: 143,600]

[EVF: 11]

At that moment, Lothur felt his body's energy reach an unparalleled level, causing him to feel everything in him change.

There was no qualitative change in this part of the cultivator's journey—however, the higher one's energy level, the greater one's capabilities.

With more energy from a stronger soul, one would have better control over one's abilities, one's senses would be stronger, or rather, could be used closer to their maximum, and so on.

Having made such a significant improvement so quickly, Lothur breathed in the air around him as if perceiving the space from a different perspective.

'It really feels good to be getting stronger.' He thought as he saw the last Soul Bones forming in this place.

Of the 200,000 bones there, he quickly categorized them into two types. Those that could generate abilities and those that would simply give advancements to those who absorbed them.

Normally, a Soul Bone could either generate an ability with a bonus to attributes or just a large bonus to attributes. The latter's chances were lower, and usually, only low-quality bones formed such resources.

Considering the large number of enemies he had just killed, Lothur had received a few thousand bones that wouldn't form part of a cultivator's Spirit Body.

However, most of them would, which he kept in his spatial ring without leaving a single one since bones capable of forming abilities were much more important to cultivators.

What could be better than an item that gave you a skill that grew with you? As nice as an attribute bonus was, it alone was not preferable to a skill that could be improved.

'I will save some of these bones without abilities.' Lothur remembered what had happened with the previous fusion.

As for why he hadn't even considered using those bones on himself to increase his attributes, it was because they had little potential to help him.

A Soul Bone didn't give x% bonuses to people who absorbed it. It gave a fixed amount of bonus to physical and mental attributes, which Lothur normally saw as y% through the system. But the system only gave him that information based on his level.

So when he saw that a bronze-grade Soul Bone could give a 10% to 20% bonus, it referred to an early 2nd-stage cultivation base. If a Sage absorbed the same bone, it wouldn't even give a 0.1% bonus!

It means that such bones that can produce good bonuses would be interesting to be absorbed by people of a cultivation level similar to the quality of those bones. 

If someone like Lothur were to absorb them, he would have to consume about 20,000 of those bones just to get a 10-20% improvement!

From his point of view, that would be a waste, especially considering that with his skill, he could benefit much more from hunting demons.

As for those bones, he could use them to make powerful bombs or even leave them for future generations to benefit from their characteristics.

With that, he left nothing behind and soon finished decimating the city's population, leaving the area protected by the local defensive formations.

He used his abilities to see what was happening on Demon Island and noticed that several of the Sages and Saints who had been in the area earlier had disappeared from the island.

However, there were still thousands of Transcendents on the island, and of course, there were many 1st and 2nd stage demonic creatures.

Then, he headed to the largest collection of demons left in this state, where more than 90,000 lower-level creatures were gathered.

As he moved on to his next target, Lothur realized he wouldn't be able to eliminate all the demons on this island so quickly. While he had been working in the previous city, demons from all over the state had begun to move.

'It looks like they're splitting up into smaller groups to buy themselves more time.' Lothur thought to himself, imagining the demons around this island were splitting into smaller groups to buy time for the Demon Emperor to move.

'So be it. If he dares to come at me now, I'll rip his head off!' Lothur didn't mind, as he felt that as he was now, he was no longer in danger, and his victory over the Demon Emperor would come sooner or later.

However, before moving on to the next opponent in his path, Lothur didn't hesitate to use his Storm skill to cover the area around Demon Island with powerful storms.

From that point on, if anyone wanted to enter or leave the area, they would have to face a storm that could kill even level 25 Sages!

Given the power of that storm, only the Demon Emperor could cross it without risking anything!

And it wouldn't be long before Lothur attacked his next target, and the Demon Emperor found out what was happening in his lands!
