Sky Robe
After a considerable duration, the system's bells fell silent.
Has it concluded?
In the absence of any further information, Jiang Han felt a tinge of regret.
"Ding!~"
System prompt: Congratulations on transitioning to the Ephemeral Angel; the potential within you has been stirred, and you have comprehended the skill "Insight of Light"!
"Another skill comprehension?" Jiang Han's spirits quivered.
During this major transformation, he had a premonition that his combat power was about to surge again. The only regret was that skills like "Shattered Stars" and "War Stomp," lacking unique profession characteristics, did not receive reinforcement.
However, contentment brings joy.
Opening the skills panel, Jiang Han patiently examined each skill in detail—
[Sword Breaks All Directions] (A-grade)
Introduction: An advanced technique conceived by the Ephemeral Angel from the chaos of relentless slaughter, significantly boosting its power.
Effect: Based on the number of enemy units, creates illusory attacks within a 10x10 range (illusion attributes equivalent to 80% of self).
Duration: 10 seconds
Cooldown: One minute
[Destruction Slash] (A-grade)
Introduction: An advanced technique comprehended by the Ephemeral Angel through its exceptionally high insight, derived from the Death Slash.
Effect: Inflicts 400% damage to a single enemy based on self-attack, reducing its movement speed by 30% for two seconds.
Cooldown: Fifteen seconds
[Grip of the Divine Spirit] (S-grade)
Introduction: As the Ephemeral Angel, your mastery over elements is unparalleled.
Effect: Drives the energy within, immobilizing a single enemy within twenty meters in front for up to five seconds.
...
"This…"
Jiang Han joyfully discovered that all advanced skills had received upgrades, and their intensity had increased. However, the relationship between Sword Breaks All Directions and the chaotic slaughter seemed tenuous, transforming from "combo" to "summoning illusions for a joint attack."
Of course, the power was undoubtedly incomparable.
[Ephemeral Swordsmanship] (Passive) (S-grade)
Introduction: An exclusive skill of the Ephemeral Angel, mastering the power to obliterate everything since birth, innate proficiency in advanced swordsmanship.
Effect: Basic attack +500, Attack +50%
[Holy Spirit] (Passive) (A-grade)
Introduction: Transcending over living beings, beyond the mundane, one becomes a holy spirit.
Effect: Increases Attack by 40%
[Power of the Ephemeral] (Passive) (S-grade)
Introduction: Even the abyss cannot bury it; the power to obliterate everything accompanies it at all times. Those not slain will return like a lightning bolt.
Effect: Outside of combat, health regenerates at a rate of 1% per second; in combat, the effect decreases to 0.2%.
...
"By just the Power of the Ephemeral and Holy Spirit passives alone, I gain 500 points in basic attack and a 90% bonus to attack percentage. The Death Power advances to the Power of the Ephemeral, and the recovery effect becomes even more brutal!" Jiang Han marveled, "Truly deserving of being an exclusive hidden profession with two distinct attributes!"
Afterward, Jiang Han eagerly examined the remaining three skills, especially the advanced version of Forbidden·Dark Reincarnation.
To be honest, Dark Reincarnation was indeed powerful, but the punishment was too severe, bordering on fatal. He hoped that after the advancement, the penalty mechanism would be alleviated—
[Insight of Light] (S-grade)
Introduction: The Ephemeral Angel possesses an extraordinary affinity for light elements.
Effect: Ignores any requirements; can learn any skill related to light elements.
[Destruction Armor] (S-grade)
Introduction: Condenses the power of destruction, forming armor around oneself to provide protection.
Effect: Defense +50%, Tenacity +20%
Additional Effect: Light and Dark elemental attack resistances +20%
Duration: Two minutes
Cooldown: Eight minutes
[Forbidden·Ephemeral Reincarnation] (SS-grade)
Introduction: Originally the ultimate technique of the Dark Swordsman, after merging with the power of the divine and fiery angel, the destructive power of Ephemeral replaces it, making this forbidden technique even more domineering.
Effect: Upon use, all attributes increase by 60%, lasting for thirty minutes.
Additional Effect: Upon death, automatically triggers Dark Reincarnation, an additional 60% increase in all attributes, removes all debuffs, and resets the duration (can be stacked, up to ten times).
Negative Effect: Each death deducts an additional 3 levels after the cooldown ends.
Cooldown: Seven days
...
Destruction Armor, needless to say, besides the increase in defense and resistance, it also provides additional elemental resistance, and the cooldown time is shortened, constituting an all-encompassing enhancement.
Insight of Light, specifics are yet to be explored, but Jiang Han felt that he might be able to try learning healing-related skills.
As for Forbidden·Ephemeral Reincarnation…
Perhaps many don't understand what it means to increase all attributes by 60%, and there's no penalty for the first use; the penalty only occurs upon death!
Generally, we use two words to describe such a skill—invincible!
"Ten lives, a total of 660% increase in all attributes. Who dares to continuously kill me?" Jiang Han's emotions surged, "If I can't win even after ten consecutive deaths, I'll eat my gaming helmet on the spot!"
After examining each skill one by one, Jiang Han calmed the turbulent waves in his heart and continued to check the other spoils of war.
There are too many!
The gains from this encounter are truly abundant!
Ah, so bothersome!
[Robe of the Sky] (Fashion) (S-grade)
Introduction: A special garment crafted by Pope Elvis for the God of Light, Uriel, imbued with countless special runes, relieving the wearer of equipment burden.
Effect: Can hide equipped items
Additional Effect: +20% movement speed
...
"A great find!"
Jiang Han's eyes lit up as he retrieved the Robe of the Sky from the package.
It was a long robe made of white silk, smooth to the touch, made from high-quality materials, with intricate patterns. Wearing the Robe of the Sky, Jiang Han felt it fit perfectly, as if the robe had an additional feature of "automatically conforming to the wearer's body shape."
"Gurgle..."
Just as he was about to continue examining the equipment attributes, Jiang Han's stomach protested.
Jiang Han checked the time—it was 4:30!
From the city defense event to the slaying of Uriel, dealing with player groups, it was impossible for the time spent not to be substantial; it was already late afternoon.
Helplessly, Jiang Han could only log out first.
It wasn't that he couldn't check the equipment attributes first, but he happened to sense an incoming call.
...
Removing the gaming helmet, Jiang Han picked up his phone placed beside him and chose to answer—
"Hello?"
"Hey there!" Wang Kai's voice came from the phone, "The entire expansion revolves around you; do you still say you're not the Eternal Son?"
"Pay no mind to those nonsensical claims." Jiang Han sighed, "Want to meet
up? I haven't had dinner yet. Thanks for your help last time; today, I'm treating you!"
"Sure, where to?"
"The usual street stall near the intersection."
...
Ending the call, Jiang Han changed into casual attire and left his gaming space.
Unknowingly, autumn had arrived.
The overcast sky's clouds were particularly heavy, and a gentle breeze carried a hint of chilliness. Jiang Han looked at the surroundings, entered the bustling streets, feeling like he had crossed into another world.
To gain an advantage in Eternal, maintain it, and expand it, he spent almost the entire day in the game.
The game was interesting; he didn't feel lonely.
But the world of swords and magic was vastly different from the modern atmosphere. After spending too much time in the game, returning to reality created a contrast that was somewhat uncomfortable.
Upon reaching the destination, the two met.
Ordering a few dishes, they sat at a small table in the corner. Wang Kai smiled, "In just a short time, the once unemployed youth is now a globally renowned figure."
"Life's fortunes are truly dreamlike."
Hearing this, Jiang Han sighed, "I never thought it would turn out like this..."
Initially, his goal was simply to earn money through the game.
Of course, even now, it remained the same, but the process and the scenes unfolding were far from what he had imagined.
Upon careful thought, it was Daniel, his mentor, who set everything in motion, letting things develop toward the unknown.
