Chapter 45: Immortal-grade Skills

Talent: Nine-Fold Spell Casting

Grade: SSS

All spell skills can inflict the skill effect nine times.

Lucien frowned. To be honest, this Nine-Fold Spell Casting did not provide much of an upgrade for him.

After all, with his high Luck, he could trigger Nine-Fold Spell Casting the vast majority of the time.

Only in a few cases would it result in a single spell cast.

However, compared to Multiple Spellcasting, Nine-Fold Spell Casting was far more stable.

He did not have to worry about situations like before, where he used a healing spell on himself and it failed to trigger Multiple Spellcasting.

After looking at his talent, Lucien shifted his gaze to the remaining items.

Poisoning Technique (Immortal Grade)

Level: 0

Can poison any target. Once poisoned, the target loses one-tenth of their spell power as damage every second for two minutes. During this period, healing is prohibited. This abnormal status cannot be removed by skills below Immortal Grade.

Cooldown: 125 seconds

Cost: 500 MP, 5 Spirit Talismans. If a special poison Spirit Talisman is used, the duration of this skill is doubled.

It was actually an Immortal Grade skill. This was his second Immortal Grade skill, aside from the Insight Skill.

The Insight Skill, now known as the Yin-Yang Eyes, did not seem to greatly boost his combat strength.

But only Lucien knew how useful this ability truly was.

If not for the Insight Skill, he might have already died once when he encountered the Jade Rabbit in the Novice Village.

And the reason he did not attack immediately at that time was entirely because of the Insight Skill.

This new skill book was also Immortal Grade.

In terms of raw damage, it was quite average and not even comparable to a normal strike from Lucien.

However, its special effect, preventing HP recovery, clearly showed how extraordinary it was.

When dealing with bosses, the thing Lucien feared most was their ability to regenerate HP.

Some bosses had terrifying recovery speeds, restoring one percent of their health every second, even during combat.

A major reason bosses were difficult to defeat was precisely because of this regeneration.

There was also a hidden mechanic. The more players that attacked a boss, the faster it recovered.

Otherwise, any boss could be overwhelmed as long as enough players attacked it, even if each person only dealt one point of damage.

Now that he had Poisoning Technique, Lucien no longer needed to worry about HP recovery.

He also did not need to fear a boss suddenly casting a healing skill while he used his mask ability, triggering a berserk state.

Without hesitation, he learned the skill.

"Ding, congratulations on learning Poisoning Technique!"

Next, he examined the Lightning and Thunder Technique.

Lightning and Thunder Technique (dark gold): After learning, randomly comprehend one to two lightning-type skills.

For ordinary players, they might gain one skill or two.

But Lucien had over twenty points of Luck, so obtaining two skills was almost guaranteed.

He just did not know which ones he would receive.

"Ding, congratulations, you have learned Lightning Rushing Thunder Fist!"

"Ding, congratulations, you have learned Thunder Duke Assist Me!"

Skill: Lightning Rushing Thunder Fist (dark gold)

Skill Proficiency: Beginner 0/1000

Can charge a weapon. When attacking an enemy, it adds 300 percent spell power as lightning damage, dealing 600 percent damage to Undead and Dark-type enemies.

Cost: 800 MP

Cooldown: Five seconds

It was extremely powerful. Even at the beginner level, it could deal 300 percent spell power damage.

However, it was clearly a melee skill.

If combined with his physical attack, he could deal up to four times his normal attack damage.

It seemed he needed to consider learning melee skills soon.

A Daoist wielding a whisk or a ruyi scepter and fighting in close combat was not unusual.

After all, Daoist paths included both ranged and melee combat styles.

Skill: Thunder Duke Assist Me

Skill Proficiency: 0/1000

After activation, it summons a phantom of the Thunder Duke to attack, dealing 300 percent lightning damage. The target then enters an Electrified state for one minute. While electrified, lightning attacks deal double damage.

Cooldown: 600 seconds

Cost: 3000 MP, 10 Spirit Talismans

This skill belonged to the God-Invoking Daoist category.

It was undeniably powerful. When combined with Lightning Rushing Thunder Fist, it could unleash explosive damage.

With his Nine-Fold Spell Casting talent, a single cast of this skill would overwhelm most enemies.

The only drawback was that saying the skill name out loud would feel a bit embarrassing.

Next was the final piece of loot.

Heart of the Taoist (dark gold). It can be embedded into any equipment slot to designate one Daoist skill of dark gold grade or lower and increase its proficiency level by one.

Description: The heart of a genius Daoist. It should have been an Immortal Grade material, but it was polluted by demonic energy, reducing its grade to dark gold.

For a Daoist, this was a top-tier material.

It could directly increase a skill’s proficiency level.

Raising skill proficiency in this game was extremely difficult.

Even for Lucien, only two of his skills had reached the intermediate level.

All others remained at the beginner level.

He needed to carefully decide which skill to upgrade.

After organizing his loot, Lucien controlled the Five Elements Zombies to scout ahead.

At this moment, he felt a sense of anticipation.

He had already gained so much on the eleventh floor. He wondered what rewards awaited on the twelfth floor.

When he stepped into the twelfth floor, his eyes lit up.

The first eleven floors were completely different from this one.

In the center of the hall stood a massive stone pillar, five meters thick and three meters high.

On top of it rested a peculiar hammer and a golden bracelet.

These appeared to be the targets of his mission.

As long as he obtained them, he would complete the quest.

Strangely, there were no monsters on this floor.

What was happening?

Lucien did not act recklessly. There could still be hidden traps.

After waiting for a long time and seeing no movement, he sent the Five Elements Zombies forward to retrieve the items.
