In Lin Feng’s left hand lay a dim, small sword. This was the final trump card thrown by the enemy during the encirclement and attack earlier. Although it had inflicted unimaginable damage on Lin Feng through self-detonation, a trace of its residual sentience was captured by Lin Feng. According to Xiao Qing’s analysis, he also saw the use of this item.
[Damaged Sky-Breaking Sword Sentience]
This was a powerful Dominator-level sentience that could elevate an immortal-grade sword weapon, honed to its peak, to the Dominator level.
Currently in a damaged state, the success rate was: 0.1%.
The amplified effect would be reduced by 10%.
Naturally, Lin Feng would not directly use this sentience. Setting aside the abysmal success rate, the description of the reduced effect after amplification alone made it impossible for him to invest it in his own treasures. Although as his opponents grew stronger, immortal-grade items were no longer rare for him, those with top-tier attributes were exceedingly scarce. Even less so for treasures like the Immortal Execution Sword Array, which perfectly met his requirements and had been continuously upgraded. He would absolutely be responsible for his treasures.
As for how to proceed, he already had a plan. His talent for enhancement could also be used in the real world. He decided to give it a try.
"You consumed an Immortal Divinity, [Damaged Sky-Breaking Sword Sentience] has been enhanced, and the success rate has increased by 0.1%."
...
"You consumed eight Immortal Divinities, [Damaged Sky-Breaking Sword Sentience] has been enhanced, and the success rate has increased by 0.2%. The amplified effect reduction has decreased by 2%."
As expected, after only a few enhancements, the effect of this sentience changed considerably. Lin Feng continued to focus on enhancing it. After consuming nearly one-third of his stock, exceeding a thousand portions of Immortal Divinity, he finally brought it to a satisfactory level. Not only did the enhancement success rate reach 90%, but the amplified effect no longer weakened; instead, it increased by 100%. There was even a chance to comprehend a unique treasure characteristic.
Lin Feng was not unwilling to enhance it to 100%, but the subsequent consumption had become outrageously high, completely lacking cost-effectiveness. He gave up then. If a 90% chance failed, there was nothing he could do.
As he gently placed the divinity into the Immortal Execution Sword Array, countless storms erupted in the star system where he was located. Within the storms, a profound aura slowly began to form. After a long while, the storms dispersed, and the aura completely merged into the treasure. Lin Feng, looking at the Immortal Execution Sword Array, which appeared unchanged on the surface, was inwardly ecstatic.
Under Xiao Qing's observation, it was displayed as follows:
[Immortal Execution Sword Array]
Tier: Dominator
Ignores 90% of Immortal Divine Shield effects
Has a 30% chance to be immune to the passive defensive effects of Immortal Shields
Combat power increases by 200% during battle
[Sword King]: When there are no other sword-type treasures of higher than Dominator level used by the wielder in combat, your attack power will increase by 100%, attack range will increase by 200%, and there will be a 10% chance to sever the opponent's weapon.
[Soul Sever]: When you inflict a fatal blow on a target, there is a 50% chance to trigger this effect. The target's resurrection-related characteristics will be nullified, resulting in direct death.
For every 10 times the target's combat power is lower than your own, the probability increases by 1%, up to a maximum of 90%.
Immortal Divinity can be consumed to forcibly increase this to 100%. This can be used once every 24 hours.
The powerful attributes filled Lin Feng with confidence. Previously, the formidable shields of immortal-level enemies and their endless resurrections had been a persistent headache. Now, these troubles were swept away.
Xiao Qing also thoughtfully provided a prompt:
[The basic attributes and unique characteristic effects of a treasure can be improved by absorbing complete Dominator-level treasure sentience.]
This also filled Lin Feng with fighting spirit. As long as he killed more Dominator-level beings, his treasures would become even more powerful, and his own situation would become safer. This was because although he had successfully escaped and reaped immense rewards this time, his teleportation back had been forcibly interrupted. The [Star System Pass] was directly destroyed! This meant he could no longer return to Water Blue Star by using item treasures. He didn't know what kind of strength was required to traverse the universe physically, but it was certainly not something his current strength could achieve. Even if he truly reached the Dominator realm in terms of cultivation, he felt it would still be difficult. It might require a higher realm.
However, he did not feel discouraged at all. From an ordinary mortal to a powerhouse capable of traversing star systems and the universe, he had not taken long. He believed that before long, he would be able to travel freely through the universe with his own strength. Returning to Water Blue Star would naturally not be a problem.
What gave him such confidence, besides his rapidly increasing strength, was also related to another glow in his hand.
[Dominator's Mark]
This is the symbol of a Dominator, the confidence of a Dominator!
Planets, star systems, and star domains refined by oneself directly provide corresponding combat power bonuses.
This Mark's bonus effect: 12500% (125% usable after refinement)
Against non-Dominator targets, defense increases by 500% (50% usable after refinement)
Against non-Dominator targets, attack range increases by 1000% (50% usable after refinement)
Against non-Dominator targets, attack range increases by 1000% (100% usable after refinement)
[Instantaneous]: When moving within a star domain refined by oneself, speed will be forcibly increased to the maximum value.
[Concentric]: A star domain refined by oneself can accommodate up to two Dominator-level beings of the same realm for stationing, granting a 10% combat power bonus from them.
Through the description of this [Dominator's Mark], Lin Feng finally truly understood the power of the Dominator realm. Unlike the near-immortal life of the Immortal realm, Dominators were more about control, a hierarchical suppression. Against targets below their own level, they could almost achieve absolute crushing power. If not for encountering a monster like Lin Feng, whose combat power, despite being below the Transcendent realm, was stronger than that of an average Dominator, Dominators were basically undefeated.
Although this item looked enticing, Lin Feng also noticed that the effects enjoyed after refinement were significantly inferior. He tried to enhance it with Immortal Divinity, but found it had no effect. "Perhaps only another Dominator's Mark can be used for enhancement," Lin Feng guessed, a conclusion also acknowledged by Xiao Qing. He then put it away for now. It was not yet time to absorb and refine this item. The revenge for being attacked by those five fellows had not yet been exacted. Oh, no. There were only four of them now.
However, Lin Feng did not rashly return. With all his might, he had only managed to kill the weakest among them, a mere Level 15 Dominator. The others were all Level 16, even Level 17 powerhouses, and by no means easy to deal with. Even though his combat power had now exceeded one hundred trillion, and Xiao Qing constantly reminded him to switch the standard calculation value to Dominator level, and he possessed a top-tier Dominator-level sword treasure, he felt he still had significant room for improvement. Rushing back might not guarantee he could deal with those four.
It would be better, he thought, to take advantage of the teleportation opportunity provided by [Time Traveler] and develop further in this unfamiliar star domain. Just as he began to move, preparing to scout the surroundings, he heard a commotion.
"They're out!"
"That light just now came from here. This person must have obtained a treasure!"
Lin Feng's lips curled into a cold smile. What a coincidence. He hadn't even gone hunting yet, and the prey had delivered themselves to his doorstep? In that case, he couldn't be blamed. It was time for a massacre!
