Absolute Death Game

Ancient Heart of the Earth: (Dark Gold-Amulet).

Permanent Effect: Stone Armor Skills LV10, Rock Skin Skills LV10.

Passive: Your Earth Element skills advance, gaining additional special effects.

Earth Magic skills advanced? Xiao Buli was a bit confused by this description. Was it a promotion in skill level? Or perhaps...

.....

Earth Escape Skills! Xiao Buli cast Earth Escape Skills right where he stood, and the next moment, his body sank into the ground. The Fairy City was built atop high cliffs, unlike ordinary land, and what lay beneath was solid rock.

Emerging from the ground once more, a rush of elation flooded Xiao Buli's heart. Indeed, it seemed that the advancement of Earth Magic was not just a simple increase in skill level, but an actual elevation of the spell's effects to a whole new tier. For example, the Earth Escape Skills could originally only work in sand, but now they worked in rock as well. The method he had painstakingly searched for, to escape the base, was unexpectedly discovered during this accidental journey. To think that Xiao Buli had once lamented the wasteful spending of a thousand points of Contribution Value; now it appeared to be an extremely worthwhile investment.

Seeing the powerful effect of the Heart of the Earth, Xiao Buli's heart sprouted grass, so to speak, and he wished he could immediately leave the game and try his Earth Escape technique at the base. But he was at a critical juncture in the game, and the trip to the Heaven Realm wasn't over yet. Although there wasn't much time left, who knew what miraculous things might still occur? Therefore, Xiao Buli happily wore the amulet and thought it better to wait until a lull in the activities before exiting. Fortunately, not only was the game similar to the outside world, but eating and drinking were also compatible with one's physical body in the real world, otherwise, he might have starved after spending too much time in-game.

The moment he donned the amulet, Xiao Buli felt another wave of astonishment. This Dark Gold equipment was indeed extraordinary. As soon as he put it on, his body was instantly coated with a layer of bronze glowing light, which vanished in an instant, merging into Xiao Buli's body. Even though this glow didn't seem much at first glance, its defensive effect was definitely top-notch. LV10 Stone Armor Skills could provide an additional 100 points of Armor, which was almost equivalent to the effect of an inch-thick steel plate.

And LV10 Rock Skin Skills could largely immunize him from damage due to fire, acid, poison, and other Elemental Attacks, meaning that, with his current strength, ordinary low-level spells like Fireball couldn't even scratch him. No wonder those rock creatures could disregard the spells of the Immortal Families.

After dealing with the Ancient Heart of the Earth, Xiao Buli's gaze shifted to the other two pieces of equipment:

Ancient Magma Barrier: (Dark Gold-Shield).

Permanent Effect: Fiery Protective Ring LV10, Flame Spirit Blessing LV10.

Passive: Fire Element skills advance.

The effect of the Fiery Protective Ring is to deal fire damage to nearby enemies who attack you. The effect at LV10 can deal 50 points of fire damage each time, (since it is a constant skill of the equipment, it is not strengthened by points in spiritual power).

This reflection effect is calculated based on the number of attacks. If an enemy with 200 health makes four close-ranged attacks, they would be burned to death by the reflected fire before Xiao Buli even has to lift a finger.

The Flame Spirit Blessing reduces fire damage, with each level reducing damage by 10%. The effect at LV10 reduces 100% of fire damage, nearly making one immune to fire damage. The only reason it's "nearly" is that some Fire Element spells have effects that ignore Resistance, such as the Lava Giant Python's Lava Core Burst Strike.

As for the advancement of Fire Element skills, the effect is similar to the advancement of Earth Magic from the Ancient Heart of the Earth, allowing Fire Element spells to improve qualitatively. Xiao Buli tried out the Sunfire Sword Qi, and the flames attached to the sword changed into a white-hot color like the core of the sun. Even though he couldn't see the specific data changes, Xiao Buli believed that with such an effect, the power of his weapon would have increased manifold.

Finally, there was the Ancient Frost Blade.

Ancient Frost Blade: (Dark Gold-One-handed Sword).

Permanent Effect: Frost Cold Weapon LV10, Bone-piercing Frost LV10.

Passive: Ice Element spells advance.

(Can be used as a Flying Sword).

The effect of Frost Cold Weapon is to add Ice Element damage to the weapon. At LV10, it could increase about 50 points of Ice damage. The effect of Bone-piercing Frost is to inflict a slowing DEBUFF on the target upon hit. This effect can be stacked, and once it reaches 10 layers, a Deep Freeze effect is triggered, completely freezing the target, which is quite a powerful special effect.

The most important attribute is the last one: it can be used as a Flying Sword. Now, Xiao Buli was in need of a Flying Sword, and the arrival of the Ancient Frost Blade was like a sleepy person meeting a pillow—it was perfectly suitable. Although the sword's attack power was not specified, its might was certainly much greater than any sword Xiao Buli had used before.

Though it sounds complicated to describe, reviewing the properties of the weapons took only a moment for Xiao Buli. He was already ecstatic from obtaining these three invincible items, when unexpectedly, a system notification sound rang in his ear:

Completed Task: Assisting Fairy City. Your Prestige in Penglai Immortal City has increased by 1000 points. You have reached a Respected Prestige level in Penglai Immortal City.
