Chapter 1436 Falling Short (11)
Chapter 1436: Falling Short (11)
The skill defended against both elemental and physical attacks, so Alon fell in love with it. He was someone who liked to battle, and it would help him immensely.
Since he had obtained both attacking and defensive skills, he moved upward and reached for the last shelf in the third row.
The next moment, he pulled out a skill card. He read the details and immediately returned it, not liking what he read.
Time flew by, and on his seventh turn, he finally pulled out a skill card that made his heart skip a beat.
[Name: Surge Catalyst
Type: Movement
Level: God
…
Price: Seven higher Sacred stones.]
Alon couldn't help but want to immediately experience the skill, seeing its powerful ability, but when his eyes finally reached the price section, he froze in shock.
The skill cost him seven higher Sacred stones, which were two stones higher than the limit of five stones set by him. Alon had already prepared plans for a situation like that, so he immediately returned the skill and reached for the second-last shelf, pulling out the same skill at the Emperor level.
[Name:?Surge Catalyst
Type: Movement
Level: Emperor
Cultivation Level: Early to peak Divine Transformation
Effect: Amplifies the user's physical prowess to achieve extraordinary speed and agility, enabling swift and precise movement on the battlefield
Description: The skill taps into the raw essence of physique to amplify the user's physical capabilities, transforming them into a blur of unmatched speed and agility. This skill acts as a catalyst for unparalleled movement, allowing the user to navigate some difficult terrains with extraordinary swiftness.
The skill demands profound control over the element of physique and requires substantial energy. After every activation, the body will become limp. Prolonged use of this skill can result in skin ruptures.
Price: Three thousand nine hundred ninety-nine ordinary Sacred stones.]
Alon immediately went to the price section and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was way below the mark. Even though it was still more expensive than the God level attacking skill he chose, he didn't feel any stress about it.
Alon then compared the differences between Emperor and God level skills. There wasn't a very big difference between the two levels, except for the terrain situation.
The God-level skill involved all kinds of terrains, while the former simply limited it to some tough terrain.
It was decision time, and Alon chose to go with the skill. After that, he moved upward and reached for the last shelf in the second row from the top.
When he pulled out a skill card, his eyes widened in shock, seeing the details. It was another top-notch skill, and soon after, he was met with disappointment, reading the price section.
Alon didn't ponder over it much and immediately returned the card, moving to his left shelf and pulling out the emperor level for the same skill.
[Name:?Ember Infusion
Type: Supporting
Level: Emperor
Cultivation Level: Early to peak Divine Transformation
Effect: Envelops allies in an ethereal ember veil, providing enhanced vitality, fortitude, and temporary resistance to elemental assaults
Description: The skill harnesses the elemental power of fire to create an ethereal veil of embers that envelopes the user and their allies, bestowing upon them enhanced vitality and fortitude. This supportive skill transforms the battlefield into a haven of fiery resilience, offering both physical and elemental protection.
The skill demands profound control over the element of fire, and the strain on the user's energy and focus can be substantial.
Price: Seven thousand nine hundred ninety-nine ordinary Sacred stones.]
For Divine Transformation level cultivators, [Ember Infusion] was one of the best, if not the best, supporting-type skills based on the fire element. So its cost for even the Emperor level was one stone higher than the combined sum of God level [Flame Pyre] and [Bronze Form].
Alon didn't immediately make his decision but thought for a while since the price was clearly an issue. Should he go for the King level skill or choose to keep the Emperor level [Ember Fusion]?
The limit he had set for Emperor level skill was six thousand higher stones, which was lower, but after thinking for a while, he couldn't bring any argument other than the slightly higher price in his mind, so he decided to go over the limit and buy the skill.
Once he made the decision, all the confusion disappeared, and confidence returned to his heart.
He had now summoned four types of skills, leaving only the combination type.
Since combination-type skills involved more than one facet of an element, Alon knew that the cost would be expensive, so for the type, he set his price limit to ten higher Sacred stones.
He then reached for the last shelf in the top row and pulled out one skill card.
[Name: Goliath's Harmony
Type: Combination (Attack and Defense)
Level: God
Cultivation Level: Early to peak Divine Transformation
Effect: Harmonizes offensive and defensive physique manipulation, transforming the user into a colossal force with formidable strength and impregnable defense
Description: The skill combines the dual aspects of physique manipulation for both offense and defense. This skill allows the user to channel the elemental essence of physique, transforming themselves into a colossal force that wields formidable strength and impregnable defense.
1.) Goliath's Onslaught: The user channels the elemental power of physique into devastating strikes. Each blow becomes a seismic force capable of breaking defenses and overwhelming their opponents. It is a relentless offensive barrage that inflicts continuous damage on the target.
2.) Colossus Ward: The user fortifies their physique to create an ethereal shield of immense resilience. It absorbs and disperses incoming attacks with unparalleled efficiency, providing a steadfast defense against both physical and elemental assaults.
The skill demands profound control over the element of the physique. After every activation, the body will become limp and require a recovery period of one week. Prolonged use of this skill can result in skin ruptures and bone cracks.
Price: Thirty higher Sacred stones.]
His heartbeat grew at a crazy rate as he read the details on the card, but when it finally reached the cost section, it almost stopped beating. Despite setting a higher price limit, he fell short of double the limit.
