Cataclysm King

Chapter 180 Catastrophic Clown Mask
The closer Ji Xun got to the spider-body and human-faced statue, the more the silvery moonlight in the sky surged into the clown mask on his face.

The originally thin mask also began to take on color.

The remaining divine power of faith on this statue would definitely be fatal pollution to ordinary people, but now it has become the nourishment of the mask.

Ji Xun clearly felt that the mask's extraordinary properties were becoming more and more abundant.

It's like a dry tree has been poured with nutrients, and an indescribable change is taking place.

Before, I was inhaling wisps of it, but after I got closer, the clown mask was sucking in the moonlight divine power on the statue like a whale.

The clown mask is [JOKER]’s exclusive relic, and its quality is definitely not low.

Ji Xun was not afraid of having too much divine power, so he walked all the way.

The mask absorbs divine power without his need to control it, nor does he need to think about it.

He walked all the way to the black steaming coffin.

Looking intently into the open coffin lid, Ji Xun's expression immediately brightened: "Sure enough."

He had taken the risk to stay in this underground palace before, and it wasn't just the Silver Moon Statue that he was thinking about.

And this coffin.

Even after the remains of the angel came out, Ji Xun also discovered that the coffin still contained rich supernatural properties.

Now when I look at it, I can see that the whole inside of the coffin is filled with black crystals.

"So many high-quality [dark matter crystals]."

When Ji Xun saw these crystals in the coffin, he couldn't help but let out a long breath.

When I hunted those undead monsters before, I only dug out a crystal the size of a fingernail.

In front of him, a dense mass of crystals formed on the wall of the coffin.

Ji Xun had been thinking about how the crystals in the undead monsters in this ruins were formed before.

Now it is certain that it was caused by the leakage and contamination of the extraordinary properties of the angel's corpse.

And unlike the crystals condensed in the bodies of the undead monsters outside which only have a meager dark element, these crystals in front of you are very special.

The coffin sealed the extraordinary characteristics of the angel's corpse, but over the thousands of years, these overflowing characteristics also leaked out a lot and condensed into the dark matter crystal.

Ji Xun used [Feast] to try to devour it.

Enlightenment appeared immediately.

"Unknown Dark Element Affinity +1"

"You used the feast, your mental power +0.03"

"You used Feast, the upper limit of mana power +0.06"

"You used Feast, your constitution +0.02"

"You used it. Strength +0.01"

"You used. Toughness +0.09"

"You used the unknown extraordinary characteristic +0.3"

"."

A large row of attribute increase tips.

"Angels are angels! Their extraordinary characteristics are so different from those of humans!"

Ji Xun looked shocked when he saw the enlightenment in front of him.

In the past, devouring corpses basically only improved physical attributes.

But swallowing these dark matter crystals is different.

Not only the regular attribute increases, but also spiritual power, spell power, and the incomprehensible "unknown extraordinary characteristics".

Ji Xun guessed that it might be related to the blood of angels, or some kind of extraordinary energy that his current level could not understand.

Although I don’t know what it is exactly, I feel pretty good after swallowing it.

But the problem is also here.

It's like eating a food you've never seen before.

Ji Xun is not sure that these unknown extraordinary characteristics will have a positive benefit to his current body.

But this is the purest extraordinary substance he has encountered after the few pieces of [Secret Cause Medium] he once had.

Moreover, after advancing to the second level, the requirements for the quality of extraordinary characteristics are getting higher and higher. This is a huge opportunity!
When an opportunity is presented in front of him, even if there is danger, Ji Xun will never hesitate.

After he tried swallowing for a while and found no negative effects, he began to gradually increase the efficiency of feast devouring.

While swallowing, he also observed his attribute panel.

After trying again and still having no negative effects, he simply sat cross-legged by the coffin and closed his eyes to meditate.

The extraordinary properties and dark elements in those crystals were visible to the naked eye, and a magical scene appeared in front of them.

The clown mask absorbs the white divine power of moonlight, while the body absorbs the rolling tide of black elements.

A strange image of light and darkness, one black and one white, surged around Ji Xun's body.

Ji Xun didn't care about what was going on outside, he just took the time to devour it.

Although the time-travel field of the ruins of Xia Mu City has been broken now, there must be a large influx of outsiders.

But the countless high-level or unknown-level disasters in the town are no joke.

It would be impossible for the hunters to find this place for a while.

But the previous waves of cloaked men were not good at dealing with him. They might come back at any time to interrupt his devouring process, or even pose a fatal threat.

Ji Xun just raced against time to devour it.

His expression was tense and time flew by unconsciously.

But the strange thing is that for nearly two hours, no one came in.

Ji Xun always feels like his luck is too good, right?
Logically speaking, with the blessing of my "luck gambler" aura, I wouldn't think of anything like good luck.

But that's what it is.

As if someone was helping me out of nowhere, two hours passed by peacefully.

Now Ji Xun's [Devil's Feast] has reached Lv3, and the efficiency of devouring extraordinary characteristics is very high.

With such a strong crystallization of extraordinary characteristics, Ji Xun watched his strength attribute skyrocket from around 40 points to 47 in just these two hours.

The dimensions of all attributes are also increasing.

The most exaggerated thing is mental strength, which has doubled from 14.9 to 31.

Under normal circumstances, this kind of surge in mental power will almost always lead to distortion.

But because of the Silver Moon Sect's secret method "Sky Moon Divine Vision", Ji Xun had enough restraint on those soaring mental powers, and he felt that his mental state was very good.

The upper limit of mana power has also skyrocketed from about 1W to 15581.

This has even exceeded the normal upper limit that the twelve-level formula of "Gluttony" breathing method can bring.

In other words, in a short period of time, it would be difficult for him to increase the upper limit of his mana power through breathing.

There are also some burdens on the body that are lifted too quickly.

The most uncertain thing is that there is an "unknown attribute" on the panel.

But no matter what, it is a good thing to have attributes skyrocketing.

In two hours, Ji Xun almost swallowed up all the dark matter crystals in the coffin.

Ji Xun's meal of "eating and drinking" also meant he had indigestion.

At the other corner of the triangle formation, the statue with a spider body and a human face that was as bright as the bright moon before was now dim.

The remaining divine power on the statue has been completely absorbed by the clown mask, turning it into an ordinary statue.

Ji Xun looked at the mask that fell off his hand, his expression a bit complicated.

The mask that was flesh-colored before now has color.

Scarlet grinning lips, black eye shadow, and playful green triangular eyebrows
It pieced together a face that was funny but looked dark and deep.

After absorbing divinity, its attributes also changed drastically.

【Joker's Vientiane Mask】

Quality: Epic

Exclusive entries:

1. Vientiane: Comprehension +5, based on the understanding of its own laws, it can simulate and change all life characteristics such as appearance, breath, fate, etc. at will;
2. Mystery in all systems is +80%; you are the shadow of the world wandering outside of destiny, and gain mysterious immunity based on your own spiritual power and the blessings of the relic’s own laws;
3. Anchor: the anchor of human nature;
Detailed explanation: The exclusive relic has powerful pollution properties and needs to be 'magically solved' before use;

Ji Xun tried, but even the best containment card in his hand could not contain the mask.

In this respect, it is already a catastrophe.

Probably because it was an exclusive relic, he saw the properties of this mask.

The three entries seem to be tailor-made for the card master of the [JOKER] sequence.

Vientiane transformation can not only simulate appearance, but also all life characteristics, and more importantly, those 5 points of understanding.

He had learned about comprehension before.

All accessories and equipment with "Intelligence +1" are top-notch rare treasures, things that the nobles rob.

The best piece of insight equipment that I heard from the intelligence dealer was the "Intelligence + 3" relic-level glasses, which were still in the hands of the president of the Federal Royal Academy.

Mask +5, coupled with [JOKER]'s own +10, Ji Xun's various learning efficiency will explode.

The second entry was as expected, it was a mysterious immunity. He had relied on this ability to avoid crises many times before.

After absorbing so much divine power, it is not surprising that it has improved to this level.

But Ji Xun couldn't understand the third entry: "The anchor of human nature?"

He thought for a moment, but couldn't understand the meaning of this expression.

But the essence of enlightenment is that he can only understand that part of his current understanding.

Since he can't understand it, it means that the content involved in this entry is not at a level that he can access now.

Originally, equipment upgrades were good news.

But the problem is, he can't wear it anymore.

"You need a 'magic solution' to wear it. Tsk. It's too high-end all of a sudden."

Ji Xun looked helpless.

He wanted to understand the "magic solution", but that could not be achieved just by thinking about it.

That can be understood as the secondary development of the devil's mark, which will be recognized by the devil and gain some additional devil abilities.

After asking Xie Guozhong before and reading enough information, I realized how difficult it is.

It can be said that if a card master wants to understand the magic solution before the fourth level, talent, cooperation, opportunity and great insights are all indispensable.

The last time Ji Xun fought with the famous detective Robin, he seemed to have touched a certain threshold.

Maybe you can understand it after a few more visits?
But the idea that an opponent is hard to come by is simply impossible.

Moreover, he did not feel that he would be able to live long enough to understand the solution next time, relying on the path of enlightenment that relied on the great horror between life and death.

Ji Xun looked at the mask and then didn't take it to heart.

You have already gained enough, and worrying about what you don’t have yet is unnecessary greed.

"It's strange that it really went so well?"

Ji Xun put away the mask and felt more and more strange in his heart.

Until now, no one has entered this underground palace. It was so smooth that it made him feel a little unreal.

It was as if someone had given him this great opportunity for nothing, and created a stable environment for him.

The cloaked man who opened the coffin?

Ji Xun frowned and thought deeply, only thinking of this possibility.

The mysterious man didn't show up after pushing the coffin away. Theoretically speaking, he definitely had an agenda.

But it just doesn't.

Ji Xun couldn't figure out the man's motives and guessed: "Or maybe he wanted to use my ability to deal with this statue? Is that why you deliberately created such a good absorption environment for me?"

The remaining divine power of this statue is fatal pollution to the card master.Except for people from the Silver Moon Sect, no one would think it was a good thing.

Even the containment by Bureau X would be a headache.

Now that it has been absorbed by myself, it seems to have solved a big problem.

This is the only reasonable explanation Ji Xun can think of.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the few people still beside the stone monument.

"what?"

As soon as Ji Xungang looked over, he realized that the mirage-like illusion before the stone tablet had disappeared.

Moreover, those words have completely disappeared, and it is just like an ordinary wordless monument.

Seeing this change, Ji Xun immediately thought: "Is it because I absorbed the statue's divine power?"

The coffin, statue, and stone tablet are a whole.

The remains of the angel in the coffin were used to suppress the statue. Does the statue seem to charge the stone tablet?
Although Ji Xun didn't understand it, he felt this way the first time he saw it.

And when he looked again, the cloaked man of the Thirteen Knights had disappeared.

Old man Xu was sitting on the ground bored and picking his ears.

Ji Xun's eyelids twitched inexplicably: Has this senior's large experience card expired?

The noble demeanor he had when he entered the underground palace was gone now, but the familiar and wretched demeanor returned.

Next to Old Man Xu, Catalina and Che Er stood there upright as if they had fallen into some state of realization and had not yet come out.

When Ji Xun saw this, he also walked over.

When Old Man Xu saw him coming, he took the initiative to say hello: "Hey, are you done?"

Ji Xun asked with expectation: "Senior, has your memory recovered?"

Old man Xu asked back: "What memory has been restored?"

Listening to this tone, Ji Xun suddenly had a bad premonition and reminded: "That's...before"

Old Man Xu responded with a blank expression: "Huh?"

"."

Ji Xun knew it, so he asked in vain.

The old man forgot again.

He originally hoped that the old man would remember the tuba and help him solve his doubts.

It seems like there is no need to look forward to it now.

Ji Xun didn't ask any more questions. He looked helplessly at the stone tablet that had completely disappeared and sighed again.

Sure enough, nothing was left.

He said with a little more expectation: "Senior, what exactly is this stone tablet? What is written on it?"

Hearing this, Old Man Xu glanced at the stone tablet with uncertain eyes, then glanced at Ji Xun, and asked in a strange tone: "Did you see the writing on it?"

Ji Xun: "."

Well, you shouldn’t have expectations.

The old man simply forgot all about it.

Ji Xun walked to the stone tablet and studied it carefully, and at the same time asked: "Senior, what's going on with Che Er and the others now?"

Only then did Old Man Xu seem to remember something. His old face looked a little confused and he said, "It must be an epiphany. It's a rare and great opportunity."

Ji Xun: "When will you wake up?"

Old Man Xu said: "It's hard to say."

Ji Xun frowned slightly as he listened.

Old Man Xu was not in the main cabin, and he didn't think the four of them had the strength to stay in this underground palace.

Anyone who comes will be an enemy.

However, as soon as this idea came up, Old Man Xu seemed to have discovered something and muttered: "It seems like something strange has come in."

Ji Xun's expression instantly became serious upon hearing this, and his eyes searched the underground palace.

However, he glanced at Old Man Xu from the corner of his eye and thought to himself: Is this old man's perception so strong?
This is obviously different.

In the past, it was completely passive hedging, but now Old Man Xu is proactively discovering it.

It seems that there are some changes left behind when the large size was launched before.

However, without thinking much, Old Man Xu muttered again: "Where is the statue?"

Ji Xun looked over, and after searching carefully, he saw a wisp of air under the statue that seemed to be slightly fluctuating.

When the fluctuation approached the statue, he realized that it was an almost transparent little snake?
"snake?"

Ji Xun also frowned.

The snake's movements were very strange, like smoking, greedily absorbing something towards the statue.

Before he could figure out what this strange scene was about, Old Man Xu had already seen through it at a glance: "Snake worshiping the moon? This is trying to steal divine power. It turns out that it is the Miracle Path [10 of Spades-God Thief] sequence. No wonder .”

"People from the Bai family?"

Ji Xun's eyes twitched.

Although I don't know that the snake that Old Man Xu Wuhe mentioned is the card master, but he said it, there is a high probability that it is.

And seeing this evil method, he immediately thought of the eldest lady of the Bai family who he almost killed before.

If Old Man Xu hadn't discovered it, this transparent little snake would have been almost ignored.

The little snake obviously didn't realize that it had been discovered.

When Ji Xun thought of this, he immediately wanted to eliminate the root cause.

However, at this moment, the little snake seemed to have discovered something, and it started to speak human words, and was filled with surprise and doubt: "How is that possible! Why is there only this little divine power left?!"

Then the snake head suddenly turned its head and looked at Ji Xun and the four people in the underground palace.

Ji Xun felt a chill down his spine as he listened to the snake talking.

Sneak attacks are impossible.

However, an even weirder scene happened immediately afterwards.

Ji Xun only watched the little snake "swishing" and scurrying toward them. While crawling, the snake's mouth opened, and a human arm protruded from the snake's mouth.

In the blink of an eye, a woman covered in mucus crawled out of the snake's belly and appeared in front of her.

If not, then who is Bai Wei?
How can such a small snake accommodate a person?
But having seen this woman's method of parasitizing the human body before, Ji Xun didn't find it so strange anymore looking at the way she appeared.

After confirming the identity of the enemy, a "pop" sound was suddenly heard in the underground palace, and his figure disappeared on the spot.

Since it is the enemy, then strike first!
Ji Xun stepped forward and rushed away. As he ran, his body had already recovered and transformed into a werewolf.

Last time, he took advantage of the sneak attack and didn't kill him.

The enemy was well prepared this time, and he didn't dare to underestimate him.

"crack, clap, clap"

The huge werewolf stamped out a series of explosions in the air, and in the blink of an eye, Ji Xun appeared in front of Bai Wei, face to face.

Before even giving the woman time to cast the spell, the fist wrapped in flames had already hit her chest.

Bai Wei's expression was very solemn when she saw this speed: How could it feel faster than before?
However, before she could think about it, the huge force from her fist was already poured into her body.

With a "thud" sound, Bai Wei's body flew backwards, spitting out a large mouthful of blood in mid-air.

impossible!
Bai Wei's pupils shrank, and she couldn't understand why this guy was so much stronger than before?

Ji Xun wouldn't give him an explanation.

After the attributes skyrocketed, the increase in combat power was at least [-]% to [-]%.

But to some extent, these two or three achievements are fatal.

What was unbreakable before can be broken now!

He hit the target with one punch, ignoring the poison that had turned his fist green. He dodged again and caught up with Bai Wei, who was flying backwards. Then he punched her hard at the weak point of her tailbone!
"Boom!"

Another muffled sound.

This time, Ji Xun clearly felt that he had hit an insulating layer like gravel, and the force of his punch was completely dampened.

"Insects? It's really not that easy to deal with."

Ji Xun looked stern, the hellfire burned all the insects scattered around him, and rushed forward again.

Now Bai Wei carries various equipment and bugs, and her combat power has increased several times.

The best killing plan Ji Xun can think of is to attack with high frequency and kill quickly!

Never release any powerful spells on her.

An idea flashed, Ji Xun did the same thing.

During these few breaths, the sound of explosions of air could be heard in the underground palace.

And the figure that flew upside down almost never touched the ground in mid-air.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"."

Ji Xun beat him hard, and Bai Wei also vomited blood.

Even though she is a level [-] player, she is helpless in this type of face-mounted output.

If it were an ordinary third-level card master of the warlock system, he would probably not be able to withstand such a violent attack.

But it is impossible for an ordinary third-level melee card master to survive under the attack of such poison and insects.

But both of them lived well.

Ji Xun's body and self-healing gave him the ability to kill by force.

Bai Wei also has countless life-saving means.

The two of them were in a stalemate.

Ji Xun was helpless. It was really impossible for him to kill this person with his current methods.

The same is true for Bai Wei.

Neither side has the ability to kill the other in a short time.

Maybe the winner can be determined by spending more time.

But both sides know very well that this underground palace is not a good place.

It will be of no benefit to anyone if we continue to waste it like this.

After Bai Wei discovered this, she bit her silver teeth and suddenly took out a card. While infusing the magic power, she whispered: "Mystery: Tongshen!"

Ji Xun caught the woman's little movements. The golden card was of high quality and was definitely a tricky spell.

But this card's instant spell can't stop it at all.

While Ji Xun was still on guard against what weird means the other party would use, he heard in the distance that Catalina woke up at some point and yelled: "Be careful! That's the Bai family's secret 'Invitation to God' technique!"

Hearing this, Bai Wei's eyes across from him were filled with sneers.

The snake pupils in her eyes shone with amber luster. Looking at her again, her whole temperament was completely different.

Ji Xun narrowed his eyes when he saw this.

Although he didn't know the origin of this spell, looking at this posture, he remembered the "Spell to Invite God" in the "Silver Moon Secret Book".

"Did you invite an old guy to get on top of you?"

Ji Xun guessed something, his eyes were burning.

Although he knew that the enemy seemed to be very strong, he became more and more interested and murmured in his heart: "Tsk, tsk. It's interesting. I thought that only believers of God could know this secret skill, but it turns out that the Bai family can also do it."

The oppressive feeling of death that seemed almost uninteresting just now suddenly came over.
