Dance of Teasing! Touch of Dark Mist!

Because… under normal circumstances, as an Assassin, it is impossible to obtain 'Additional Fire Damage' from skills.

Generally, the damage additions an Assassin can obtain are limited to the three types: Dark Element, Blood Element, and Poison Element.

For Qin Feng to be able to obtain Lightning Element additional damage from Sister Yuan's 'Blessing of the Thunder Fairy' skill was already great luck. Now, obtaining additional Fire damage significantly boosts Qin Feng's overall output capability.

Generally speaking, one stacks resistances based on the class they are facing; there is a lot of nuance to this.

If in a battle between players of the same level, when dealing with an Assassin, one would certainly stack Dark, Blood, and Poison Elemental Resistance, plus increase physical defense.

But Qin Feng has Lightning and Fire, so relying on such methods cannot counter him at all.

What's more…

"This Bone Fire rule effect, once activated, allows all my damage to ignore the Damage Limit."

"Isn't this even more fierce?"

Previously, only Qin Feng's Poison damage could ignore the Damage Limit.

Now, everything can!

And the 159 points of Divinity consumption, which might have made Qin Feng reluctant in the past, but after coming to the Netherblue Civilization, Qin Feng could only say… It's still not enough!

He wished it could consume more Divinity, so that when he reached the Land of Order, he could suppress many opponents.

"However, this 159 points of Divinity consumption is already enough in the Netherblue Civilization."

"By the time I truly reach the Land of Order, the nine layers of seals on the Bone Authority should have all been lifted."

Qin Feng was quite looking forward to it.

According to the Skeleton God General · Swordsman Taromon, no one had ever obtained the nine layers of seals for the Bone Authority before. At most, it was seven layers, and those who achieved that had long since reached the Supreme Heaven and become Celestial Gods…

"Now, this Bone Authority has already added six different types of Order."

"Additionally, the effect of this Bone Fire, when Shadow Veil is fully stacked, can actually last for over forty hours."

"It's a pity that it's not convenient to use it when farming monsters normally…"

After all, as long as he kills a target, the stacks of Qin Feng's Shadow Veil will be reset to zero.

For example, just now, Qin Feng wiped out so many players from the Star Church, and his Shadow Veil stacks were reset. But while dealing with the World Spine, because he took reflected damage, his Shadow Veil was stacked back up to 100 layers…

During normal monster farming, it is impossible to maintain this.

Subsequently, Qin Feng checked his Greedy Space.

He discovered that this World Spine had dropped two Ancient-Grade Assassin pieces of equipment. Counting the one dropped by 'Death Eye' earlier, it was just enough for one synthesis.

"Synthesize!"

In Qin Feng's anticipation… the five pieces of Ancient-Grade Assassin equipment in his hand disappeared at the same time. Amidst a burst of black mist, a black curved dagger appeared in Qin Feng's palm!

The blade of this dagger was curved like a snake, about 15 centimeters long, and looked very delicate.

"Immortal-grade dagger?"

Qin Feng frowned.

He currently dual-wields daggers, one Blade of Judgment and one White Bud Blade, which are basically irreplaceable at the moment.

Qin Feng looked at the dagger and found that its attributes were indeed not as good as the White Bud Blade.

But this dagger did have a decent special effect!

—— [Unique Effect: Dance of Teasing! After activation, you are guaranteed to evade the next incoming attack within 0.5 seconds. After evading the attack, you teleport to any position within 100 (2100) meters, and simultaneously increase your next attack damage by 40% total. Cooldown 60 (1.24) seconds!] ——

For Qin Feng, this is a super-strong special effect with a cooldown of only 1.24 seconds.

The guaranteed Evasion part isn't that useful, but the key is the 40% total increase in attack damage… This is another independent multiplier!

"Based on my current attack power, killing the third World Spine in the Netherblue Civilization should be no problem."

"But if the next one, the Fourth World Spine, I might not necessarily be able to one-shot it…"

The Fourth World Spine is an Ancient-level BOSS by default!

On top of being an Ancient-level BOSS, it will also have a massive attribute boost!

Generally, the HP of an Ancient-level BOSS is like that of Death Eye, around 100 to 200 billion.

But for a World Spine… it definitely exceeds that by more than ten times.

After all, the HP of World Spine · Mountain already exceeded that of a typical Mythic BOSS by dozens of times.

"Stripping Stone."

Qin Feng checked his Greedy Space. He now has several hundred Stripping Stones in total, and that's even after selling quite a few to the Great Xia Government and the Sky Dome Guild.

This Stripping Stone can strip equipment special effects and attach them to other equipment.

Generally speaking, a piece of equipment can have one Common special effect attached.

If it is a divinity armament, then one can also attach a divinity rule special effect. Of course, this requires the use of a 'Rule Stone' to achieve, and even Qin Feng doesn't have many of these…

Thus, Qin Feng took out a Stripping Stone and stripped the unique effect 'Dance of Teasing'. He attached it to the 'White Bud Blade'.

"Eh?"

White Sprout felt it: "You dead ghost, this special effect is not bad! It fits your elusive Shadow profession!"

Qin Feng: "Elusive? That's useless; increased damage is what's real… You old hag, I can see your understanding of the game is not up to par. No wonder you were made into a weapon."

White Sprout was furious: "Hey, don't make personal attacks! Personal attacks are one thing, but stabbing at someone's sore spot, you're really something."

Qin Feng: "What, you don't like being stabbed?"

White Sprout: "???"

Soon, Qin Feng finished organizing the loot dropped by the World Spine.

Although the improvement was significant, he didn't get any useful Assassin skill books; only two Assassin skill books dropped.

One was an Ancient-Grade 'soul Dive', a skill Qin Feng had already learned.

There was another one, also Ancient-Grade, named 'Touch of Dark Mist'.

Qin Feng took a look. After this skill is released, it generates a circle of dark mist around him. If he is attacked by a projectile, this dark mist will spawn dark tentacles to directly block the projectile attack.

"This skill is not bad… but it's useless for now."

Qin Feng calculated that this dark mist can spawn up to 32 dark tentacles in a row, equivalent to a 32-layer projectile barrier.

If 'Touch of Dark Mist' is activated, even if Qin Feng has 9 layers of Projectile Penetration, he cannot pierce through the defense of 'Touch of Dark Mist' in one go.

This sounds very strong.

However… if it can't pierce in one go, wouldn't multiple times work?

Like Qin Feng's Demonic Shadow Blade, throwing four or five thousand per second, this skill could never block it.

"So, this 'Touch of Dark Mist' is meant to deal with magic-class professions."

"High-damage projectile skills from magic-class professions can be blocked using this 'Touch of Dark Mist', and the effect would be very good."

"But if I encounter a magic-class, can't I just one-shot them?"

It was hard to get two Ancient-Grade Assassin skill books, but one was already learned and one was useless, which made Qin Feng quite annoyed.

But fortunately, evolving 'Touch of Dark Mist' to Immortal-grade only costs 10,000 Evolution Points, and then letting the Spirit Devourer consume it would directly increase Qin Feng's Spirit conversion rate, from 131.2 Elemental Resistance per point of Spirit to 132.9 Elemental Resistance…

"The next World Spine will only respawn in three days."

"Next, I can go to the Abyss World of this world and farm to my heart's content!"

Having learned the lesson from Blue Star, Qin Feng can kill slower this time so that a 'Son of the Abyss' won't appear. He can wipe out all the monsters in the Abyss World here; who knows how many abyss shrine(s) that could drop?

Of course, before heading to the Abyss World… he needs to deal with the Star Church first.

By the way, he should let that 'Many-Eyed Demon Katatas' search for clues regarding the relics of the Ancient God of Judgment!

"Having this NPC search for things seems to require a lot of Lifespan, and the more precious the item searched, the more Lifespan required…"

Regarding this, Qin Feng didn't take it to heart.

Anyway, no matter how much Lifespan is needed, he can just make the Star Church pay it!
