Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!

Chapter 170: Breaking Through Toward The Core Formation Realm (1)!



Leo happily received the materials, herbs, and spiritual fruit he needed from the silver hands of Skeleton #2.

In addition to the 6 scrolls of defensive skills that ranged from common to elite rarity and the hundreds of earth gold within the small container, Leo couldn't help but nod his shadow head in satisfaction.

"Huff~ Finally, I could finally upgrade my class job tonight or tomorrow morning!

"I could finally learn two new skills! Hopefully, it was not about creating potions or something that required production!"

Leo thought emotionally, to the point of almost crying upon remembering how hard it was to satisfy the requirements of his class job... remembering that it almost took him months just to have the opportunity to finally upgrade his class job to the uncommon grade!

Wiping his imaginary tears, Leo leisurely set his gaze toward the dazed expression of Roy and the teenager in the short distance in pure puzzlement...

Their thoughts were clearly occupied since they arrived within the cemetery earlier.

Huff~

Noticing this, Leo amusedly shook his head, not a bit curious about the things that they see and experience within the town as he casually reasoned within his mind.

"Keke~ even if the town was destroyed, who cares? The only thing that matters to me right now is to advance toward the Core Formation realm and comprehend the vastness of the Dao!

"Moreover, with how the devil spawn schemed with great difficulty, it already shows that their current strength was still lacking in order to fight the weakened town head-on!

"Keke~ still, even though they lack the ability to destroy the town, they would be able to at least kill hundreds of citizens within...

"Sigh... No matter how the situation turned, it would only benefit me in the end!"

Thinking of this, Leo's shadow physique couldn't help but fluctuate greatly in pure excitement, already missing the blissful taste of the despair and fear of the beings within the town- almost causing his shadow physique to salivate just by reminiscing of its unforgettable taste.

...

Clank, Clank? (Master, are you feeling alright?)

Seeing that his master was again smiling foolishly on his own, occupied within his own world, not caring about the baleful aura he was unconsciously releasing toward the surroundings. Skeleton #2 helplessly interrupted his master's dream, popping it akin to a balloon, causing Leo's shadow face to darken by an amount (blushing in embarrassment).

Cough, Cough.

"I'm fine, go back and continue observing the humans, if they plan to escape, immediately find me within the centre of the cemetery...

"Oh, by the way, switch to Skeleton #1 tomorrow morning so you can cultivate within the pit. Try to achieve the peak Foundation realm soon!"

Leo commanded seriously, waving his shadow tendrils as he hurriedly began traversing the silent cemetery, stepping above the countless niches, making the grasses on the ground sway slightly as unknown energy grazed their surface- making their bland being slightly become much darker and bland in the process...

As if life already abandoned them...

Huff~

Taking a long deep breath, not hurried to create potions to complete the requirements of his class job to upgrade. Leo unhurriedly took out the defensive skill scrolls within his inventory, instantly illuminating the short distance in white, grey, and green weak light- planning to learn them all before trying to combine the skill with the most compatibility.

"I need something that could deflect an amount of the lightning that would appear when I was breaking through above my realm.

"Something that was not too strong to the point that it wouldn't allow the lightning to hit the surface of my physique, nor too weak that it would risk my being or kill me in the process...

"I just need the right amount so I can temper my soul when the time comes!'

Pondering within his mind, Leo began to read all the skill scrolls within his grasp with seriousness- manipulating his shadow arm to split into 6 small tendrils for a better view.

Ding!

[ Shield of Light (Elite): Envelop one's body with dazzling light that could withstand a small amount of damage. It also has the effect of momentarily blinding the enemy if they were staring at the user's figure when you activated the skill!

Effect: Create a shield that could withstand damage below your stage... While could deflect some of the damage taken in the same and above realm.

Activating Cost: 5 Qi per 10 seconds... ]

[ Intense Vitality (Elite): Increase the basic recovery of the user's health, vitality, and stamina by a small amount, achieving the basic qualification to be called undying by the mortal's perspective!

Effect: Passively increase the recovery of health, vitality, and stamina by 0.1% per second! ]

...

Other than the elite defensive skills, there was also the Wind Shield (uncommon) that could redirect physical and magic offensive skills, making them miss the target inexplicable. Although it couldn't deflect fast-approaching and heavy offensive skills, nonetheless, it was still good at the early stage...

Followed by the Guard (uncommon) skill that could summon a seemingly impenetrable aura, weakening the offensive skill that entered the area of its effect... To the point that some of the offensive skills would lose their firepower upon finally hitting the user of the skills.

Followed by two Common defensive skills called Defensive Stance and Fish Scale, other than slightly increasing their skin durability and deflecting some damage, the two were actually not even worth mentioning compared to the four!

"System, learn all the skills..."

Ding!

[ Learning Shield of Light (Elite), Intense Vitality (Elite), and other 4 skills would consume 1,450 horror points!

(Accept/Declined)? ]

...

"Just deduct it already!" Leo said impatiently, couldn't help but raise his voice due to the anticipation building within his being...

Ding!

-1,450 horror points!

[ Congratulations upon learning the... ]

Seeing that he successfully learned the 6 defensive skills, Leo didn't hesitate further as he immediately opened the Fusion feature of the system- instantly unfolding the flickering ancient cauldron within, beholding its black metallic glint that carried unprecedented beauty, that even his elite cauldron couldn't be compared by its percentage.

"Huff~ How beautiful and ancient...'

Leo unconsciously muttered within himself as he stared at its exterior in pure fascination, feeling that every image of the cauldron carried an amount of rules within them or probably the understanding of the Dao... However, without fully seeing its exterior and feeling its texture, Leo had no idea how to ascertain his guess.

"Well, I could try to buy it in the system. But, the premise is... that I manage to earn an unknown amount of horror points to purchase it."

Shaking his head, feeling that he again became occupied by something that he shouldn't contemplate about, Leo began to seriously consider what skill to combine- staring at their description as he deeply pondered.

"The Guard (Uncommon) skill is the best option within the defensive skills that I had, since it could weaken the lightning that would appear in my advancement before it hit my shadow physique (which is half soul entity) to temper it...

"The only problem is that the skill strength is quite weak, not to mention that fusing two skills to create a high-level skill would lead to a random result.

"It will only become unpredictable what kind of defensive skill the Fusion will create."

As for using the medallion of forceful upgrade to upgrade the rarity of the skill, Leo didn't entertain that thought, or to be exact, he thought that it was better to use it toward the fused skill, making the skill defensive capability to enter a quantitative change.

Not to mention that gaining a medallion of a forceful upgrade takes time... which he might lack at the current moment, reasoning for him to choose the best way to use it!

...

Soon, after a while, without any other option, Leo could only drag the Guard (Uncommon) skill and Intense Vitality (Elite) skill toward the interior of the cauldron- wanting to see the compatibility of the two.

"If the success rate was high, then I would settle with these two... I think that their fuse skill was quite good compared to the combination of the other skills."

Ding!

[ The compatibility of fusing the "Guard (Uncommon)" and "Intense Vitality (Elite)" skills were (91%).

Cost of Fusion: 7,500 horror points!

Cooldown: 7 days!

Note: Failure to combine the skills wouldn't allow the user to recover the cost of the fusion of the skills. ]

"Eh!? This, the compatibility of the two was actually much higher than the previous fused skill!?'

Leo exclaimed, not expecting that the compatibility of the two would actually entered above 90%- making him heave a sigh of relief, feeling that the Fusion of the two skills wouldn't fail...

However, upon remembering his jinx skill, Leo suddenly released a sigh of helplessness before unhurriedly praying toward the Goddess of Luck above, wanting to graze him with the corner of her authority to avoid the small chances of failure.

"I hope it was a success..."

"Although I suddenly feel that I was jinxing myself, I hope that the Fusion will be a success!"
