#2178 - Demon Lord Armor
An Ancient, exclusive divine artifact.
Jun Wuxie was pleasantly surprised.
This battle armor would surely allow him to better deal with higher-ranked demonic creatures and acquire more rare resources.
As the battle armor came into his possession, information surfaced in his mind.
Demon Lord Battle Armor, a third-tier Ancient-level exclusive divine artifact, a divine defensive item that accompanied the Lord of Wind Demons in battle. It was damaged in the wars of the past, causing it to fall to the third tier. There is an extremely small chance of it dropping upon the first kill of the Lord of Wind Demons.
Wearing it increases base defense by 250%, enhances the wearer's total defense strength by 1000%, provides an additional 50% damage mitigation effect, and comes with the Wind Demon Lord's secret technique: Demon Lord's World - Slaughtering the Eight Desolations. Casting the secret technique consumes a large amount of the wearer's essence, energy, and spirit, but it can be cast continuously until the essence, energy, and spirit can no longer support it.
All effects of the Demon Lord Battle Armor are halved for non-Secret Realm creatures.
"Is this effect a bit too strong?"
Jun Wuxie was stunned. Compared to the Ancient-level Blood Wall Shield, this Demon Lord Battle Armor, although one grade higher, had a much greater increase in effects, and it also provided an additional 50% damage mitigation effect.
The secret technique it came with could actually be released by the wearer's essence, energy, and spirit, instead of only being usable once within a certain period like the exclusive divine artifacts he had obtained in the past.
It seems that the higher the grade of an exclusive divine artifact, the greater the increase in effect for each grade.
He was very pleasantly surprised.
The effects of the Demon Lord Battle Armor far exceeded his expectations.
He immediately took off the Wind Demon Battle Armor and put on the Demon Lord Battle Armor.
The moment the battle armor connected with his body, a mysterious power flowed through his limbs, making him feel that the toughness of his physical body had been greatly enhanced.
"Congratulations to Shi for obtaining the first Ancient-level exclusive divine artifact in the entire Secret Realm! Special announcement!
May all trainees take Shi as an example and seize every opportunity and creation!"
The Orderly Voice of the Monument of Glory resounded in every region once again.
People who had just slightly recovered from the previous shock were shaken once more!
Countless eyes stared at the Exclusive Divine Artifact Ranking on the Monument of Glory.
On the list, the first rank was still the Emperor's Ancestral Artifact of the Realm, the Eight Extremes Magatama.
However, the second rank was no longer the Emperor's Gale Sword, but had become the Demon Lord Battle Armor, a third-tier Ancient-level exclusive divine artifact, owned by Shi!
"Heavens, it's actually an Ancient-level exclusive divine artifact! Doesn't that require a Transcendent-level creature to drop?
Shi only killed a Divine-level creature, yet he obtained an Ancient exclusive divine artifact!
This luck is simply outrageous!"
"Bastard!"
The Emperor was besieging a Divine-level creature with the experts of his clan. Seeing the Demon Lord Battle Armor in second place on the ranking, he was so angry that his black hair danced wildly!
"How much manpower have we spent, searching everywhere for Divine-level creatures in the wild and in open secret realms?
We've killed several Divine-level creatures, and all they dropped were Ancient-level divine artifacts!
That Shi, on his first kill of a Divine-level creature, actually obtained an Ancient-level divine artifact! It infuriates me!"
The Emperor felt extremely unbalanced.
Why?
They were both killing Divine-level creatures, yet Shi could obtain an Ancient divine artifact, while he only obtained Ancient-level ones!
Could it be that his luck was much worse than his?
Impossible!
Throughout his life, from childhood to adulthood, he had been hailed as the Child of Fortune. He was one of the few outstanding talents of his generation in their universe, a true dragon among dragons, the best of the best!
At the same time, in another place, the True Fate Dao Child's eyes flickered with cold light, and his face was gloomy.
"Killing a Divine-level creature can actually drop an Ancient-level exclusive divine artifact? It's simply unbelievable..."
He couldn't understand it, because he and the people of his sect had killed no small number of Divine-level creatures, but they had never seen the shadow of an Ancient divine artifact.
For a time, he felt like vomiting blood.
He was the True Fate Dao Child, with heaven-defying luck, yet he couldn't drop an Ancient divine artifact when killing a Divine-level creature, while that Shi obtained an Ancient divine artifact!
How could his heart be at peace?
"Dao Child, do not be angry because of this.
Once we kill some more Divine-level creatures and gather more Ancient exclusive divine artifacts, we can then go and find Transcendent creatures.
A third-tier Ancient exclusive divine artifact is nothing. We believe we will be able to obtain one soon."
... …
Regardless of whether it was the Emperor and his group or the True Fate Dao Child and his group, they did not know that there were differences between Divine-level creatures.
The Divine-level creatures they killed were either in the wild or in open secret realms.
Therefore, the Divine-level creatures they killed were only the most ordinary among Divine-level creatures.
The truly powerful and special Divine-level creatures all existed in non-open secret realms or secret lands.
To enter these areas, it was necessary to trigger certain special hidden quests.
For example, the Pain of Village No. 9 that Jun Wuxie triggered in the Land of Origin, and the Steward's Wish that he triggered in Qingfeng Ancient Town.
There were many types of hidden quests, and not all hidden quests required entering sealed secret realms or secret lands.
On the contrary, the vast majority of hidden quests were completed in the wild or in open secret realms and secret lands.
The Emperor had once received a hidden quest to go to a sealed secret realm.
However, that quest was not completed by killing creatures in the secret realm, but by completing it through other special means.
His luck could also be considered heaven-defying. Coincidentally, he found the lost Ancestral Artifact of the Realm because of this.
And the creatures in that secret realm were of very high rank, and he couldn't get detailed information at all.
Looking at those creatures, the only information he got was a simple name, and the rest were question marks.
From a long distance away, he felt like he was suffocating, and he didn't dare to try at all, because he knew that if he tried to kill those creatures, he would surely die.
... …
Eighth floor of the Wind Demon Hall.
Jun Wuxie put on the Demon Lord Battle Armor and picked up the other divine artifacts on the ground.
Demon God Shoulder Guard, a third-tier Ancient-level exclusive divine artifact, armor worn by the Lord of Wind Demons in the past. It was damaged in the great war, causing its rank to fall.
There is a certain chance of it dropping upon killing the Lord of Wind Demons.
Wearing it increases base defense by 50% and enhances the wearer's total defense strength by 200%. The effect is halved for non-Secret Realm creatures.
Demon God Waist Belt, a third-tier Ancient-level exclusive divine artifact, clothing worn by the Lord of Wind Demons in the past. It was damaged in the great war, causing its rank to fall. There is a certain chance of it dropping upon killing the Lord of Wind Demons.
Wearing it increases base defense by 60% and enhances the wearer's total defense strength by 250%. The effect is halved for non-Secret Realm creatures.
Jun Wuxie was very satisfied.
These exclusive divine artifacts were all parts that he had not yet worn. Once worn, his defense strength would be greatly enhanced.
He immediately put on the shoulder guard and fastened the waist belt. The mysterious power of order flowed through his limbs, and he immediately felt that the basic toughness of his physical body had been greatly strengthened.
At the same time, on the Exclusive Divine Artifact Ranking of the Monument of Glory, the Gale Sword and Gale Battle Armor in third and fourth place directly fell to fifth and sixth.
The third place was replaced by the Demon God Waist Belt, and the fourth place was replaced by the Demon God Shoulder Guard.
These two exclusive divine artifacts were not as effective in increasing defense as the Emperor's third-tier Ancient Gale Battle Armor.
However, the rarity of the waist belt and shoulder guard was higher, and the drop rate was low, so they were more precious, and thus ranked higher.
People looked at the changes in the Exclusive Divine Artifact Ranking and felt envious, jealous, and hateful for a time.
The benefits that Shi obtained from killing a third-tier Divine-level creature were unimaginable.
Ancient and Ancient exclusive divine artifacts, several of them were dropped, and they all made it into the top four of the Exclusive Divine Artifact Ranking!
... …
Eighth floor of the Wind Demon Hall. Jun Wuxie looked at the remaining exclusive divine artifacts, picked them up, and checked them briefly.
They were all Emperor-level and King-level.
He was too lazy to check them and directly put them into his storage ring.
Next, his eyes fell on the other dropped items.
With a wave of his hand, all kinds of things on the ground flew over and fell into his palm.
A first-grade Millennium Divine Forbidden Pill.
This surprised him. Killing the Lord of Wind Demons could actually drop this kind of thing.
First-grade Millennium Divine Forbidden Pill, a non-Secret Realm exclusive divine pill, suitable for breaking through to the second level of the Millennium Myth realm upon initially entering the Millennium Myth realm, a rare divine pill.
There is a certain chance of it dropping upon the first solo kill of a third-tier or higher Divine-level creature in a sealed secret realm.
"So it requires a solo first kill, and it has to be a third-tier Divine-level creature in a sealed secret realm to drop it. These conditions are quite harsh.
After all, it's a Millennium Divine Forbidden Pill. Even though it's only first-grade, its difficulty of acquisition is extremely high."
Jun Wuxie put away the first-grade Millennium Divine Forbidden Pill and continued to look at the other things.
These were two gemstones, multi-faceted crystals, flowing with a faint golden light of order, exuding a special aura.
Second-tier Forging Divine Stone, a special Secret Realm exclusive material, used to forge exclusive divine artifacts or to repair and upgrade exclusive artifacts with damaged internal structures, a rare gemstone. There is a small chance of it dropping upon the first kill of a second-tier or higher Divine-level creature.
Third-tier Forging Divine Stone, a special Secret Realm exclusive material... …
Rare gemstone. There is a small chance of it dropping upon the first kill of a third-tier or higher Divine-level creature.
They were actually forging stones.
This was a good thing, and it was exactly the gemstone he needed, which could be used to restore the rank of the Swift Wind Shoes.
He happily collected them.
Next was a bottle of Corpse King Source Blood and a Demonic Heart.
The drop rate of this thing was extremely low. It was a necessary material for refining the Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill, and its value was immeasurable.
There were three gemstones left.
Seeing these three gemstones, Jun Wuxie couldn't help but be stunned.
The shapes of the three gemstones were very special. One was shaped like a five-pointed star, one was shaped like a crescent moon, and one was shaped like a golden sun.
Cosmic Divine Star Stone, a non-Secret Realm exclusive gemstone, containing the power of the cosmos, can be used to create a certain mysterious battle armor, a rare divine stone, only dropped upon the first kill of a third-tier or higher Divine-level creature in a sealed secret realm.
Cosmic Divine Moon Stone... …
Cosmic Divine Sun Stone... …
"To think there are even Primordial Divine Stones…"
The Master of the Secret Realm truly scoured everywhere for various rare resources back then, showing meticulous dedication for the sake of this generation's hope."
Jun Wuxie couldn't help but sigh in amazement and delight.
Even with the Master of the Secret Realm's profound cultivation, finding various rare resources, and in sufficient quantities, was no easy feat.
After all, he himself said that he had traveled for millions of years, expending a great deal of energy and time.
"The Primordial Divine Armor will be of great use when you leave the Secret Realm in the future.
However, it requires an extremely large number of Primordial Divine Stones, which will take time to accumulate."
Jun Wuxie put away the three Star Radiance Sun Primordial Divine Stones.
To forge a Ten Suns Primordial Divine Armor, thirty of each of the Star, Radiance, and Sun Divine Stones are needed.
To carry out extreme forging on the foundation of the Ten Suns, another thirty of each of the Star, Radiance, and Sun Divine Stones are required.
Finally, to perform ultimate refinement on the extremely forged Primordial Divine Armor, making its damage reduction effect reach ninety-nine percent, forty-nine Primordial Divine Stones of exquisite, flawless, and perfect quality are needed.
Gathering so many Primordial Divine Stones of various types, who knows how long it will take.
Anyway, there is no hope for it in the short term.
However, since the Master of the Secret Realm collected these Divine Stones back then and placed them within the Secret Realm, it is certain that he will continue to obtain many Divine Stones in the future.
Accumulate them slowly, and when there are enough to at least perform extreme forging, then forge the Primordial Divine Armor.
He turned to look at the Monument of Glory suspended in the air.
Several medicinal pills fell accordingly.
Two Rank One Eternal Divine Forbidden Pills, one Rank Two Eternal Divine Forbidden Pill, and one Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill!
The Eternal Divine Forbidden Pills flowed with a faint golden light, permeating a rich medicinal fragrance.
The Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill bloomed with pure golden light, its surface covered with patterns, and the overflowing medicinal energy condensed into golden dragons, circling the pill and emitting bursts of dragon roars.
As the medicinal pills entered his hand, information about the Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill surfaced in his mind.
Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill, a non-Secret Realm exclusive type of pill, a peerless Divine Pill.
Under any circumstances, it can enable the user to break through the limits of their physical body, tempering the strength of their physical body's muscles, bones, internal organs, flesh, meridians, etc., and enhance the toughness of their physical body. The effects are not affected by leaving the Secret Realm.
This type of pill can be taken up to forty-nine times, after which it will have no effect.
"??"
Jun Wuxie looked at the Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill in his hand, his mind filled with question marks, his heart extremely shocked.
The effect of this medicinal pill far exceeded his expectations!
It could actually break through the current limit of physical strength under any circumstances.
What shocked him the most was that it could be repeatedly taken forty-nine times?
He immediately permeated his blood energy and primordial spirit into the medicinal pill.
Gradually, he understood.
Although there was a sense of order interfering with perception inside, his special bloodline sensed a trace of the aura of the universe's source power within the medicinal pill.
That was from some of the most ancient source powers of the real universe.
"No wonder it has such an effect. The Master of the Secret Realm was actually able to find even this kind of thing.
Back then, he didn't know how much effort he expended."
Jun Wuxie was very shocked.
This ancient source was too rare, difficult to find in the heavens. Even a Heavenly Emperor would find it extremely difficult to obtain, and even powerhouses in the Wudao realm would have difficulty.
Because it could not be perceived, it relied purely on luck.
At the same time, the place where it existed was very likely to be extremely dangerous, capable of posing a fatal threat to Heavenly Emperor powerhouses, let alone the Master of the Secret Realm back then who was not a Heavenly Emperor, at most only a Universe Emperor, and still seriously injured and difficult to heal.
"I didn't expect you to be able to find such a source."
He looked at the Monument of Glory suspended in the air, unable to help but exclaim in admiration.
To find such an ancient source in the realm of a Universe Emperor with a seriously injured body, how difficult it was.
"It seems that Senior has seen the source power inside this Vajra Divine Bone Supreme Pill.
Speaking of this matter, it is truly regrettable.
Back then, my luck was heaven-defying, but I almost died there because of it.
If it weren't for the special environment there at the time, and the existence of a clever method, I would not have been able to survive at all.
To be honest, I crawled out of there.
Since that time, the injuries have become more serious, otherwise I could have lingered on to this era.
But it doesn't matter, dying is dying.
At least I left a primordial spirit imprint, so I can see the scenery of this generation.
If there is hope, then it will not be in vain for my life's efforts."
"Hope will exist.
Your Azure Green Great World should belong to the True Realm.
What I mean is that, unlike Divine Ruins, your universe does not lack the true source of the universe like Divine Ruins."
The Master of the Secret Realm was greatly shocked upon hearing this, "Senior actually knows about this matter?"
He felt unbelievable!
Because worlds like Divine Ruins have no way to go to the True Realm, and it is also very difficult for people from the True Realm to come to worlds like Divine Ruins that lack the true source.
If he hadn't accidentally found a crack back then, he wouldn't have known that there was such a world.
Later, after many clues were pieced together and combined with ancient legends, he vaguely deduced the origins of the heavens lacking the true source.
In these illusory heavens, since ancient times, the Emperor-level powerhouses here probably do not know that this world lacks the true source, and even the Heavenly Emperors can hardly perceive these things.
After all, as long as the Heavenly Emperor has not been to the True Realm, they will not be able to make comparisons, and naturally they will not think in that direction.
