Complete Martial Arts Attributes - Chapter 3097
Chapter 3035 A chilling thought! The Seed of Calamity and the Mark of Calamity! Can these be compared so casually?
“【Heart of Calamity】has actually broken through to the fifth tier!!!”
Wang Teng was both surprised and delighted after regaining his senses.
This most difficult attribute to improve had actually broken through.
Who said that 【Demonic Body of Nightmare】was no good?
Oh, he said that, never mind.
Wang Teng immediately shook his head, clearing these chaotic thoughts from his mind, and then carefully comprehended the fifth-tier 【Heart of Calamity】talent.
“Hiss~”
He then gasped.
Although he had already roughly sensed the extraordinary nature of the fifth-tier 【Heart of Calamity】talent when he broke through
, he was still shocked after a deeper understanding.
Because he had made a new discovery.
Becoming stronger was just the basics.
The perception and absorption of 【Calamity Power】 was merely the foundation of this physical talent.
Now Wang Teng clearly knew that the fifth-tier 【Heart of Calamity】talent was already capable of threatening beings at the level of the Sealed Immortal.
The resulting [Calamity Power] is enough to plunge even a Venerable Immortal-level being into calamity, making them difficult to cleanse.
Just like those Immortal-level beings right now.
They have been corrupted by this level of [Calamity Power], their bodies and souls already showing signs of calamity and misfortune.
If not cleansed in time, they are highly likely to face misfortune in the future.
Of course, with Wang Teng’s current fifth-tier [Heart of Calamity] talent, he can completely solve their problems.
He might even be able to resolve the situation of the three True Gods.
However, he doesn’t know whether he should reveal this [Heart of Calamity] talent.
Up until now, he has subconsciously hidden his [Heart of Calamity] talent.
Firstly, this kind of talent is not something a normal person can master, and now that it appears on a dark being, it inevitably raises suspicions.
What if he reveals it and the other party finds him suspicious?
Wouldn’t that put him in a dangerous situation?
Secondly, if he were to reveal the existence of the [Heart of Calamity] talent now, most people would suspect how he obtained it. Anyone
with a modicum of sense would immediately assume he acquired it from those [Calamity Bodies].
This is extremely intriguing.
If he could seize talents from those terrifying [Calamity Bodies], could he also seize talents from others? It
‘s terrifying to think about!
Therefore, this isn’t just Wang Teng being overly worried; the problem is simply too significant to ignore.
“Forget it, let’s take it one step at a time.”
Wang Teng couldn’t think of a better solution for the time being, so he had to put it aside and see how things developed later. What if
the situation of the other Immortal-level beings wasn’t too serious?
What if they could withstand the calamities and misfortunes?
After all, they were all Immortal-level or higher experts, and their ability to deal with various dangers was far superior to that of ordinary martial artists, so there was no need to worry too much.
And to put it another way, it’s better to sacrifice a friend than oneself.
Exposing one’s own situation for the sake of others is not something Wang Teng would do.
At worst, we can just save Luo Fude and Elder Ji.
Getting back to the point.
Besides the aforementioned uses, the fifth-tier [Heart of Calamity] talent has several other remarkable abilities.
It was precisely because Wang Teng saw these special abilities that he felt the fifth-tier [Heart of Calamity] talent was so extraordinary.
In short, it’s incredibly powerful!
The kind that leaves everyone speechless upon seeing it.
First is…
“Seed of Calamity!”
Wang Teng muttered to himself.
Doesn’t it sound similar to the [Egg of Calamity]?
In fact, there is a certain connection.
The [Seed of Calamity] is a special ability of the [Heart of Calamity], while the [Egg of Calamity] is a derivative ability of the [Seed of Calamity].
To put it simply, the [Seed of Calamity] originates from the [Heart of Calamity]; it’s a special energy body that can be condensed after the [Heart of Calamity] reaches a certain level.
The [Egg of Calamity], on the other hand, is clearly a special skill, used through the [Seed of Calamity].
With Wang Teng’s mastery and understanding of the [Egg of Calamity], he easily found the connection between the two.
He hadn’t known before because he hadn’t mastered the fifth-tier [Heart of Calamity] talent, nor was he aware of the [Seed of Calamity].
At the time, he only thought that the [Egg of Calamity] was formed from the [Source of Calamity], sharing the same origin as the [Heart of Calamity].
This understanding wasn’t problematic.
After all, the [Heart of Calamity] talent was indeed formed from the power of the [Source of Calamity], only the deeper changes were more profound, not a simple condensation.
And the power within the [Seed of Calamity] was also the [Source of Calamity]. The [Egg of Calamity] was derived from the [Seed of Calamity], so wasn’t it simply using the [Source of Calamity] to condense the [Egg of Calamity]?
There was just one more step in between.
This was something outsiders couldn’t know.
Now that Wang Teng had mastered the special ability of the [Seed of Calamity], he truly understood the principle.
Of course, it wasn’t impossible to condense the [Egg of Calamity] using only the [Source of Calamity].
However, its rank will definitely not be very high, and the [Calamity Demon Body] it controls will only be low-rank. Therefore,
it won’t be very useful.
In short, the [Calamity Egg] is a growth-type combat skill; its strength is greatly related to the power it condenses, the method of condensation, and even the person who condenses it.
“Furthermore, the [Calamity Seed] can also be directly planted within a living being.”
Wang Teng thought of another strange use of the [Calamity Seed], a strange light appearing in his eyes.
This really seems like a method of the Dark Seed!
Planted within a living being, it can absorb the living being’s calamity power on one hand, and at the same time plunge the living being into calamity and misfortune on the other—truly killing two birds with one stone.
Therefore, this ability is truly not simple.
Even more bizarrely, the existence of the [Seed of Calamity] is extremely well-hidden, like the power of calamity itself, capable of becoming invisible.
A being implanted with the [Seed of Calamity] might sense something is wrong, but it would be extremely difficult to pinpoint the exact location of the [Seed of Calamity].
It can even move freely within the creature’s body, like a living being, not fixed in any particular position.
“Tsk~”
Wang Teng clicked his tongue, finding this ability even more appealing.
A pure, old-school skill!
Who could withstand this?
Hehe~
The fifth-tier [Heart of Calamity] also has a second ability called—the Mark of Calamity!
It forms special patterns from the source of calamity, imprinted on the body, to resist the influence of external calamity power, essentially adding an extra layer of defense.
Just like the calamity power unleashed by the [Demonic Body of Calamity] before, if he had this [Mark of Calamity] protecting him, the impact would be much less.
“This [Mark of Calamity] seems to be related to runes!”
Wang Teng felt a strange sense of familiarity.
He had mastered so many runes that he could immediately spot the similarities.
Even if he didn’t know the corresponding Calamity rune.
“Interesting!”
Wang Teng stroked his chin, a newfound curiosity stirring within him.
It seemed there might be corresponding Calamity Runes for the power of Calamity; something to look forward to.
Indeed, the more you try to extract something, the more you get, and the deeper you go.
With enough effort, there’s no wool you can’t get.
Besides, Wang Teng discovered that the [Cataclysmic Runes] not only resisted external Calamity power but could also form a basic defense, resisting attacks from any force.
“I didn’t expect the [Heart of Calamity] talent to have so many benefits after reaching level five. This talent definitely has room for development.”
After listing the various special abilities of the [Heart of Calamity], Wang Teng couldn’t help but feel a sense of感慨 (gan3kai3, a feeling of mixed emotions, including admiration and awe).
Next, several insights appeared in Wang Teng’s mind, all quite familiar combat techniques, so there were no surprises.
[Brain of the Nightmare] (Growth Type): 43000/100000 (Mastery);
[Fusion Demon Transformation]: 36000/50000 (Tier 5);
[Mouth of the Nightmare] (Growth Type): 13500/50000 (Minor Success);
[Demonic Armor Nightmare Hands] (Growth Type): 41500/50000 (Proficient);
Wang Teng’s eyes flashed as he glanced at the attribute panel, his heart filled with joy.
First was [Brain of the Nightmare]. This combat skill had indeed improved, from Proficient to Mastery.
More importantly, the attribute value had reached 43,000 points, close to half of the Mastery level’s attribute cap.
Otherwise, he really didn’t know when he would reach the 100,000-point attribute cap.
[Brain of the Nightmare] was almost exclusively a combat skill belonging to this [Nightmare Demon Body]. Other dark creatures simply couldn’t master this kind of combat skill, not even the Gluttonous Dark Race.
He would find it very difficult to acquire this kind of attribute in the future.
“Devouring the consciousness of those Dark Demon Lords really does yield more [Brain of Devouring] attributes.”
Wang Teng suddenly thought of the Blood God’s clone’s actions and couldn’t help but smile slightly.
He knew about the Blood God’s clone’s fate.
Those Dark Demon Lords wanted to trick him, so he couldn’t blame him for tricking them in return.
However, Wang Teng hadn’t expected the Blood God’s clone to actually succeed; the madness of that [Devouring Demon Body] was truly terrifying.
“I must remind the Blood God’s clone to be extremely careful,”
Wang Teng muttered to himself.
If that [Devouring Demon Body] detected the Blood God’s clone’s presence, it certainly wouldn’t let him go. Even if he and the Blood God’s clone used the spatial teleportation of [Devouring Space], it would probably be too late.
The fate of those Dark Demon Lords was a lesson from the past.
“Judging from the information from the Blood God’s clone, the consciousness of those Dark Demon Lords should indeed have disappeared,”
Wang Teng thought to himself.
The second combat skill is [Fusion Demonic Transformation], which is also the fusion of the attributes dropped by those dark demon lords with the [Nightmare Devouring Demon Body].
This combat skill has now directly jumped from the fourth tier to the fifth tier, improving by one level.
The attribute value has also reached 36,000 points, not too far from a breakthrough!
“It seems that the [Fusion Demonic Transformation] of the [Nightmare Devouring Demon Body] is quite high-level.”
A glint flashed in Wang Teng’s eyes, slightly surprised.
At first, he thought that the Fusion Demonic Transformation was at most equivalent to the lower to middle level of demon lord, and that it was only so terrifying because of the addition of [Calamity Demonic Transformation].
Now it seems that this may not be the case.
The [Fusion Demonic Transformation] alone has reached the fifth tier, which shows that the Fusion Demonic Transformation is also quite crucial.
“That’s right, it is only after fusion that it becomes so terrifying!”
Wang Teng said thoughtfully.
The fusion of dark species is very terrifying. The fusion of a single dark species will produce unimaginable results, let alone the fusion of multiple dark species.
“This fifth-tier [Fusion Demonic Transformation] seems to have reached the Upper Demon Lord level.”
Wang Teng carefully comprehended this combat skill and quickly discovered that its level was not low, actually reaching the Upper Demon Lord level.
Coupled with [Calamity Demonic Transformation], it’s impossible for it not to be powerful.
The third combat skill is [Mouth of the Nightmare].
It’s a growth-type skill, quite a good one.
Most importantly, it’s a combat skill formed by the fusion of [Calamity Power] and the Gluttony Clan’s abilities, already belonging to the category of Calamity combat skills.
Otherwise, Wang Teng wouldn’t have attached so much importance to it.
“Now this combat skill has reached minor mastery from proficiency, a considerable level of mastery.”
Wang Teng was overjoyed, but soon his heart tightened, because he suddenly understood why this combat skill had improved so much.
The method by which the [Calamity Demonic Body] previously devoured and absorbed three True Gods must have been this [Mouth of the Nightmare].
Wang Teng discovered that after reaching minor mastery, [Mouth of the Nightmare] could be used on any part of the body, and its power would not be weakened at all.
Even when used on a single hand, its power is the same as when used on the stomach.
It’s common knowledge that the most powerful application of the Gluttonous Clan’s [Mouth of Gluttony] is on their stomachs.
“So that’s how it works!”
Wang Teng felt he’d learned something new.
No wonder those dark hands alone had devoured three True God-level beings.
It turned out that the [Dark Gluttonous Demon Body]’s mastery of the [Mouth of Gluttony] had reached such a high level!
“Wait!”
Wang Teng suddenly realized something, his eyes widening slightly.
“Was the [Dark Gluttonous Demon Body]’s mastery of the [Mouth of Gluttony] this strong from the beginning?”
A huge question suddenly surfaced in his mind.
It’s no wonder he thought this way; initially, the [Dark Gluttonous Demon Body] also used the [Mouth of Gluttony] against the three True Gods.
But at that time, it was only at the Proficiency level.
If the opponent had directly used the Lesser Completion level of the [Mouth of Gluttony], wouldn’t the three True Gods have been devoured long ago?
Why wait until now?
Then there’s only one possibility.
The previous [Nightmare Devouring Demon Body] had not mastered [Nightmare Devouring Maw] to the minor level.
“Its mastery of some of its combat skills can be improved?!”
Wang Teng felt he had discovered a crucial point, and he was completely dumbfounded.
Could that really be done?
Outrageous!
Absolutely outrageous!
Although this wasn’t quite as outrageous as his own, who was he?
He was a cheat code, okay?
Could this be compared to something so easily?
The more Wang Teng thought about it, the more unbelievable it became. The [Demonic Devouring Body] could actually improve the mastery of combat skills—what couldn’t it do? (End of Chapter)
