Chapter 22 Unsealing the Magic Martial Arts
After breaking through to the third level, the first thing Jiang Feng did was find an abandoned cold storage room to hide in and open his attribute panel.
Choosing Hextech is the most exciting thing ever!
---
[Host has been upgraded. Please select a new Hextech system!]
Astral Body (Gold)
[Effect: Permanently gain 1 HP, but permanently reduce the damage you deal by 10%]
[Premium Loan+ (Gold)]
[Effect: Gain 5 Starry Coins; your next Hextech rank will decrease by one level.]
[Unseal the Magic Weapon (Gold)]
[Effect: Choose one of four upgradable Darkin weapons (artifacts), and the host gains Darkin attributes.]
---
Three golden options slowly unfolded in his field of vision, and Jiang Feng's gaze swept over them quickly.
The Astral Body can immediately gain a permanent maximum of 10,000 HP. If you calculate it, I can probably break through to the Qi and Blood Realm directly!
However, the downside is also obvious: it will permanently reduce damage and affect the damage cap, making it somewhat counterproductive.
He shook his head and gave up on that option.
The second Hextech is Advanced Loan+, the highest level of Hextech, and his gaze only lingered on it for a second before moving away.
Let alone 5 Starsea Coins, even if it were another 5, he would never be willing to sacrifice his next Hextech rank.
Even to obtain Hextech equips for economic purposes, you need a savings account with compound interest or something similar.
Jiang Feng's gaze naturally fell on the last Hextech.
With just one glance, his breathing quickened.
Unlock the magic and martial arts!
Hextech Crafting: A Way to Obtain Legendary Artifacts!
Even if we don't know what level this weapon corresponds to, since it can be called a god, it can't possibly be any ordinary thing!
After confirming that it was safe around him, he silently made his choice.
The next moment, the text on the panel changed, and new weapon options appeared in front of him.
----
The Darkin Staff
[Effect: For every certain percentage of health consumed, a corresponding percentage of magic damage can be dealt to the enemy.]
Darkin Shield
[Effect: Deals damage equal to 1% of the user's current health as damage per second to nearby enemies. Once all enemies in this area have disappeared, it heals the user for 2% of their current health.]
Darkin Bow
[Effect: After every 10 attacks, the next attack will deal 500% damage. This damage is reduced by 33% for each enemy hit.]
Darkin Reaper
[Effect: Swings and slashes at nearby enemies, dealing 150% damage to the host; gains an additional 30% damage upon participating in a kill, stacking up to 5 times, and the effect lasts until the end of the battle.]
----
Jiang Feng ruled out the first two Darkin weapons. While they were powerful because they could deal percentage-based damage to health, he had a higher potential for the [Transcendent Evil] attribute, so he naturally chose a weapon that was more compatible with it.
What put him in a dilemma was the Darkin Bow and the Darkin Scythe.
Both of these artifacts are perfectly suited to the extraordinary evil; the higher one's attack power, the greater the damage that the two artifacts can unleash.
For this reason alone, these two weapons are worthy of the name of gods.
"......."
After much deliberation, Jiang Feng abandoned the bow and arrow and chose the Darkin Scythe.
Although the Darkin Bow can stack up to 500% damage, while the Darkin Scythe can only stack up to 300%, the former has too many drawbacks and limitations. Once the enemy discovers its weakness, its effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
In contrast, the Darkin Scythe's 300% damage increase is very stable and can last until the end of the battle, without any major weaknesses.
More importantly, he is a melee fighter.
After making his choice, Jiang Feng's heart stirred. This time, the Hextech power did not enter his body as usual, but instead transformed into a dark red stream of light that appeared in his hand.
[Unlocked Magic Weapon: Darkin Scythe]
This artifact is now bound to its host; it cannot be dropped or destroyed, and it will gain more attributes as the host's cultivation level increases.
The next moment, he learned all the detailed information about the weapon.
Gazing at the dark red light in his hand, he had a thought and transformed the light into a bracelet, which he then wore securely on his left wrist.
Seeing that no one was around, he became playful and shouted at the bracelet, "Show it!"
The dark red bracelet instantly turned into mist, which then solidified, and a scythe almost the size of a person appeared in his hand.
This scythe is entirely black and red, with an extremely sharp crescent-shaped blade. The blade is wrapped in silver carvings and blood-red runes. If anyone were to take a look at it, they would probably feel their breath catch in their throat.
Jiang Feng grasped it in his hand. To his surprise, the scythe wasn't as heavy as he had imagined; in fact, it was extremely easy to handle. He casually swung it a couple of times, the blade tip trailing a scarlet gleam, as if it were gathering an everlasting blood light.
Regarding this weapon, Jiang Feng could only say...
"He's fucking handsome!"
After playing with it for almost fifteen minutes, he reluctantly put it away.
The only downside to this thing is that it's too flashy. At least until he can use weapons, which is the seventh level of Body Tempering, he doesn't want others to see it.
However, you can use it freely when you go to the polluted area to stack passive abilities later.
..........
The content on the panel is not yet finished.
Before Jiang Feng could even process what was happening, another flash of inspiration struck him, and a new hint appeared in his mind.
[Having mastered the Darkin Scythe and acquired Darkin bloodline]
Jiang Feng then remembered that the description of [Unsealing Magic Weapons] mentioned changing one's attributes to Darkborn.
Does this mean...?
"Are you saying I don't want to be human anymore?"
Realizing that this was indeed a possibility, Jiang Feng quickly sat cross-legged and began to circulate his qi and blood to examine the changes in his body.
However, less than 30 seconds later...
"Click."
A crisp sound.
His face turned deathly pale instantly, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably. The joy he had felt upon acquiring the weapon vanished completely, replaced by panic.
He discovered something.
In just a few breaths, more than a dozen of his bones broke!
"Pfft."
A mouthful of dark red blood spurted from his mouth.
The moment the blood touched the ground, a chilling aura enveloped and entangled him like a spiderweb. The once-hard cement floor began to melt away, as if being corroded.
He looked ahead shakily, only to see that the fresh blood of warriors on the ground had long since turned into dark blood filled with decay, ruin, and malevolence.
Without a doubt, this is the blood of the Darkin!
Jiang Feng gritted his teeth, a metallic taste rising in his throat. At this moment, he finally realized that the newly generated Darkblood in his body was something he couldn't handle at the moment!
"Damn it... how did I... choose... Hextech... and kill myself..."
Darkin blood poured into his body like boiling water, his meridians were breaking inch by inch, and his bones, which had already been strengthened twice, were cracking and shattering under the strain...
His vision began to blur, his lips parted slightly, but he couldn't utter a sound...
Just then, a grayish-white mist suddenly appeared in his mind.
At the same moment, a sound that only Jiang Feng could hear exploded inside his body.
"Bang!"
His bones were shattered.
But he did not die.
