Chapter 365: Absorbing the Power of the Divine Horadric Cube

The Royal Palace of Lugaoin.

Richard was extracting the death divinity from the divine crystal. There were seven points of divinity in this divine crystal. After clearing the remaining consciousness, four points of death divinity were directly integrated into the death divinity to expand the death power he controlled.

The remaining divinities must all be cleared of their attributes and consciousness before being integrated into the elemental divinity.

The fusion of the death divinity was very difficult, and Richard had to clear the remaining consciousness over and over again without damaging the divine power. In the soul consciousness, Richard killed the remaining consciousness on the divine power again and again.

With every death, this remaining consciousness would become weaker, until it finally turned into a pile of fragments, which were then erased by Richard's mental power.

After finally erasing all consciousness, Richard integrated this ray of death divine power into his body. The integration of death divine power into his soul increased Richard's mastery of the death field.

Next, Richard absorbed all of these death divinities, but it took a lot of time to wear out the consciousness in them. This also led to Richard having to fight with his consciousness in his soul sea every night before going to bed, until all the remaining consciousness of these divine powers was wiped out.

The Horadric Cube was created by the Horadric School wizards after they captured the Three Demons of Hell. This block has a powerful synthesis ability. As long as you have a synthesis formula and put the corresponding things in, you can synthesize what you want.

But in addition to the Horadric Cube, there is another treasure in this world that is more powerful than the Horadric Cube, and that is Kanai's Cube. In fact, the Horadric Cube is just a low-end version of Kanai's Cube.

When the Horadrim mages created Kanai's Cube, they found that it was too powerful. They were worried that long-term use might cause serious consequences, so they sealed it up.

Then I deleted a lot of power from Kanai's Cube and created a new Horadric Cube.

Richard took the Horadric Cube, put the King's Scepter and Viper Rune into it, and then chose to synthesize. The next second, a golden light flashed, and a Horadric Scepter shining with dark golden light appeared inside.

The Horadric Staff, which is said to be able to open the Horadric Tomb, is actually the key to Duriel's room. Duriel is a giant insect demon lord.

At the same time, he was also responsible for guarding an angel. After this unfortunate archangel was captured by Diablo, he was thrown into the care of Duriel. Duriel, the demon lord, loved to torture his enemies the most. You can imagine how this archangel was tortured.

Richard did not immediately go to find Duriel, but prepared to rest for a few days to integrate the death divinity into his body. At the same time, Richard began to look through the golden scroll he brought back from the Temple of Death.

The golden scroll brought together all the research of the Son of Death on the field of death. Although Richard was stronger than him, his research on the field of death was far inferior to his.

If this kind of book is placed in the Supreme Arcane Council, it will be one of the most precious books. The only books that are more powerful than this kind of book are the wisdom accumulated from the lifelong research of great arcanists above level 40, or the legendary Nether Scroll.

The Netheric Scrolls are divided into two volumes, one hundred in total. It was because of these Netheric Scrolls that Netheril rose to become a powerful magic civilization. Many human magics are derived from the Netheric Scrolls.

However, part of this set of scrolls was destroyed, part was collected in the Supreme Arcane Council, and part was lost in the multiverse, making it difficult to find them back.

The Supreme Arcane Council has more than a dozen volumes, but all of these volumes of Nether's secret volumes are auxiliary. Most of the knowledge in them is about alchemy, rune arrays, enchantments, making magic props, etc.

Richard had also spent a lot of money to get the right to watch. The Supreme Arcane Council was able to develop and expand a more glorious arcane civilization on the basis of the Arcane Empire, and these scrolls played an indispensable role.

Although these scrolls do not have the knowledge to enhance spellcasting ability and spellcasting expertise, the auxiliary knowledge is also very important. After the collision of wisdom, the knowledge of runes, enchantment, enchantment array, magic item making, etc., blooms into a gorgeous flower of wisdom.

Just like the most important super-large floating ring and element annihilation furnace in the floating layer, both of them are made based on this knowledge.

The golden scroll that Richard is studying now is somewhat similar to these Nether scrolls. According to legend, there is a lot of knowledge in these Nether scrolls that involves the gods. Some scholars even suspect that the Nether scrolls are the knowledge written by the gods.

Li realized that the Nether Scrolls were indeed closely related to the gods. Even their destruction was caused by the gods.

The golden scroll slowly opened, and the hieroglyphs on it and the power of the death domain gathered together, and began to show Richard the knowledge on it. This golden scroll did not record any necromancy or death magic, and the knowledge in it was all about the understanding and analysis of the domain. It also contained a lot of knowledge about soul studies.

If there is anyone who is the best at soul studies, it is the God of Death. The God of Death controls a large number of souls, and his duty is to protect the souls, cleanse them, and then put them back into reincarnation.

The Supreme Arcane Council has studied the power of the God of Death and the rules of reincarnation. In general, reincarnation is a very complicated issue. In the multiverse, the final destination of the soul is the Source Sea.

The soul is born from the source sea and will eventually return to the source sea. The source sea will erase the consciousness of the soul, including the soul itself, and only a little soul light will remain. Then this little soul light will merge with the soul energy to form a soul, and then enter the material world through the source sea.

In this way, a person or intelligent creature is born. As for the god of death, after the body dies, the soul is cleansed with the Styx, all memories are washed away, and the soul is thrown down like a blank sheet of paper, and reincarnated.

This operation is limited to souls with strong soul bodies and no defects. As for those with incomplete souls, they are sent to the source sea for reassembly. This is equivalent to cleaning paper and recycling it.

Simply put, the two methods are that the god of death cleans the white paper and sends it to reincarnation after it is qualified. The other working principle of the source sea is like making paper, pouring all the raw materials or discarded paper (souls) into it, which is equivalent to making paper again.

Entering the Sea of ​​Origin is basically equivalent to shattering the soul into pieces, grinding the bones to dust, and then reassembling it into a new soul.

This golden scroll is very profound, and the demigod who wrote it also incorporated his own domain power into it. Every time you read it, you must concentrate fully, and the requirements for learning are very high.

The basic requirement for viewing this scroll is an intelligence of 18 or above. If your intelligence is lower than this, reading this scroll is likely to cause serious mental damage.

When he was in the Supreme Arcane Council, Richard understood that the gap between people is often greater than the gap between people and dogs.
If you take out the secret words on the golden scroll one by one, maybe any low-level wizard who has systematically studied spell knowledge can understand them, but when all these words are connected together, many people don't understand them at all. Especially since the author of this golden scroll didn't even consider telling the story in a step-by-step manner, it's even harder to understand.

There are many special symbols and graphics on the golden scroll. These graphics are written by magical power. When reading, they will automatically combine into various complex spell models and graphic analysis. Those who do not have enough knowledge will not be able to understand them at all.

"Mechanized Mind!"

Richard studied the knowledge without any expression on his face. In his mechanized mental state, he would discard all his distracting thoughts, concentrate fully, and study with the calmest mind.

This golden scroll does not look thick, but the gold foil is actually very thin. A piece of gold nugget about the size of a fingernail can easily stretch to the size of a playground when it is beaten into gold foil.

The golden scroll in front of him was thinner than paper. The gold foil was blessed with special power and was extremely difficult to damage. Therefore, there was a lot of knowledge recorded in it. Richard initially estimated that if the rules and power were not taken into account, the secret text on this scroll would have to be written down to have at least 300,000 words.

With the help of his 'mechanized mind', it took Richard about five or six days to finish reading it. As for understanding it later, it would take even more time.

"Analyzing the golden scroll "The Book of Death"."

"The current analysis progress is 21.73%. The Tower Spirit System is being analyzed! The Law of Death is being analyzed. Spellcasting techniques are being analyzed. The Death Domain is being analyzed."

A huge stream of data flowed quickly in his eyes, and Richard used the power of the tower spirit to analyze these laws of death.

Three days passed quickly, and Richard finished this study. The brain has a limit to how much knowledge it can learn at one time. Once this limit is exceeded, the brain will be damaged, even with magic protection.

After putting the golden scroll away, Richard waved his hand lightly, and a ball of death energy appeared in his hand. At this moment, he did not use any magical power, it was completely an instinctive action.

The energy of death quickly gathered into a ball in his hands, and Richard felt that he could easily control this power.

——"Control of the power of death!"

This ability is a special power that he has mastered from reading the scroll of death. He can easily control the power of death, just like the special power of "control of elemental power" that he originally possessed.

In addition to these, Richard also gained another expertise ability.

[Advanced Spell Focus (Death): Improves your control over necromancy and the power of death, can improve your ability to cast necromancy spells, and improve your resistance to necromancy spells, increase the power of death rule spells, and reduce the enemy's immunity to death rule spells. ]

This spell feat is very useful for necromancers, but not so good for liches.

It can enhance the power of the death rule spell. Richard has mastered a few types of this spell, including [Law·Death], [Finger of Death], [Death Gaze], [Death Ripple] and [Death Field].

These death rule spells ignore your magic resistance and require a willpower or toughness judgment. If the judgment is successful and the spell is successfully cast, it means death. If the judgment fails, the spell is invalid.

Normally, these spells have a higher success rate against targets with lower physical fitness. The lower the opponent's health, the higher the success rate. Of course, if the opponent is immune to instant death spells, then this spell will be ineffective. You can only use the Death Domain to counter it.

When Richard fought against those evil gods, evil gods, and ancient evil creatures, he needed the power of the realm of death in order to kill them in the end.

Richard's current spell, Death Ripple, can instantly kill anyone below Legendary level, including pseudo-Legendary. Under normal circumstances, it takes a long time of study and research to master these abilities, at least ten years. Now he has learned it so easily.

The benefits this golden scroll brought him were greater than he had imagined.

The golden scroll is like Richard constantly learning and exchanging ideas with a demigod who is proficient in the power of the death domain. The power of the death domain on it is constantly communicating, practicing and confronting with his own power of the death domain.

After mastering a part of the power of death, Richard began to scan and record the various books sent by Jehain into his soul library. These books would be analyzed and compared by the Tower Spirit.

After all, many books are not exactly what he needs. Many books contain various hidden information, which all need to be analyzed and compared by Tower Spirit. All the errors and omissions will also be listed out for comparison.

At the same time, the duplicate knowledge in these books will be deleted, and finally the truly useful knowledge in hundreds of books may be only 15%. But even so, it is already very good.

After sorting out these books, Richard also studied the power of the Horadric Cube, which can synthesize magic gems. This ability is very useful.

You should know that low-level, inferior magic gems are abundant and easy to obtain, but high-quality magic gems are difficult to obtain, especially legendary ones.

Richard tried it, and the magic gems that came out had no problems. At the same time, the magic cube could synthesize low-level magic potions into high-level magic potions, and could use rune stones to re-enchant other magic equipment.

Even rune stones can be synthesized with low-level rune stones to form high-level rune stones. The power of this Horadric Cube is very strong. After Richard synthesized it through potions, he finally succeeded in synthesizing a bottle of full recovery potion (large purple bottle).

He used it himself and found that even with his current strength, this potion could restore 30% of his magic power and injuries. If used by someone below the Legendary level, it could instantly restore all injuries and magic power. This potion was indeed very powerful.
