I Break through Crazily
Chapter 377: Chapter 376: Finishing Move Upgrade
After cutting Li Qingqing off, Liuu Tian turned back to Tang Yi and said, "Tang Yi, I won’t say any more. I truly don’t know how I could ever repay your kindness. If there’s ever anything you need me for in the future, just say the word. Alright, now that we have the Spirit Grass, we need to hurry back and save a life, so we won’t disturb you any longer. Also, if you have time, you can come find me in Celestial Extinction City. I’ll definitely be a good host. After all, we made a promise last time, but you never came. You can’t break your word this time!"
After she finished speaking, Liuu Tian instructed her group members to carry the severely injured Wang Dali. The party bid Tang Yi farewell one by one and then slowly departed.
Although Liuu Tian still wore a faint smile, Tang Yi could sense a trace of dejection about her.
"Sigh."
Tang Yi sighed and called out to Liuu Tian’s retreating figure, "Sister Liuu, don’t worry. I’ll definitely come visit Celestial Extinction City next time."
"Okay, I’ll be waiting for you," Liuu Tian said with a smile as she turned her head.
The two of them nodded to each other. Then, with a flicker of movement, Tang Yi vanished from the canyon entrance.
As she watched Tang Yi disappear, the smile on Liuu Tian’s face gradually faded, replaced by an expression of loss.
She had only been forcing a smile while Tang Yi was there, holding her true feelings back. Now that he was gone, she finally let them show.
Seeing Liuu Tian’s expression, Li Qingqing patted her on the back and comforted her, "Don’t be sad, Leader. There’s still plenty of time. He promised he’d come look for you, so there will be other opportunities."
Hearing this, Liuu Tian didn’t reply. Instead, she turned to gaze into the depths of the Valley of Desolation and murmured, "Will there really be a chance? Maybe..."
Tang Yi hadn’t actually gone far from the canyon entrance. Instead, he returned to the cliffs above. Only after he watched Liuu Tian’s group depart completely did he turn his focus inward to check the system prompts that had appeared upon completing the quest.
"Ding! Congratulations to Tang Yi for completing the ’Search for the Jiuli Flower’ quest. You have received 20,000,000 Experience Value and a reward of 500 Battle God Points."
"Ding! Congratulations to Tang Yi, your Finishing Move has been promoted. The Finishing Move ’Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash’ is now Level 2."
"Ding! Congratulations to Player Tang Yi for receiving 200 Mid-Level Full-Attribute Pills."
These were all the prompts that had appeared in his mind. Although there were no Martial Techniques, Body Techniques, or Weapon Equipment among the rewards, Tang Yi was still extremely happy and excited.
All in all, the rewards were still incredibly generous.
The influx of 500 Battle God Points caused Tang Yi’s current Battle God Value to skyrocket to 1,750 points.
What’s more, he received 200 Mid-Level Full-Attribute Pills, bringing his total stash of Mid-Level Full-Attribute Pills to 1,100!
If he took them to the System Store to exchange for Battle God Value, each pill was worth 10 points. That would be 11,000 Battle God Points!
This was an enormous fortune!
Although leveling up by killing monsters was faster, the rewards from completing quests were far more bountiful!
This journey had only just begun, yet Tang Yi had already reaped huge rewards, leaving him incredibly satisfied.
Finally, there was the Finishing Move. Its promotion to Level 2 was a pleasant surprise, almost like an encouragement award for Tang Yi, since the Finishing Move had been on the verge of leveling up anyway.
A Level 1 Finishing Move could be upgraded after just ten uses. It had only needed a few more uses to be promoted, but Tang Yi had never found the right opportunity to use it, which was why the Finishing Move had been stuck at Level 1 for so long.
Leveling up to Level 2 now saved Tang Yi some effort.
He opened the interface for the Finishing Move.
[Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash]: Player Ultimate Skill (Evolvable)
Level: 2
Skill Level: 0/100
Activation Requirement: 20 Battle God Points.
Skill Effect: Summons a Blood and Qi Sword and smashes it into the ground, creating a large-area shockwave to attack enemies. Furthermore, the scorching molten blood erupting from the ground will inflict burn damage. Attack Range: 20x20. (Skill Power = 4x the Player’s strength).
Uh!
Tang Yi had originally thought it was just an encouragement award, but upon seeing the Finishing Move’s interface, he was left dumbfounded. ’So this was the grand prize!’ he thought.
’If I’d known the Finishing Move would become this powerful after being promoted to Level 2,’ he thought, ’I would have focused on leveling it up first, even at the cost of my own level!’
’If I’d already raised it to Level 2, would this reward have pushed the Finishing Move to Level 3?’
’It was entirely possible!’
Seeing that Level 3 required 100 Skill Level points, and each cast cost 20 Battle God Points, Tang Yi couldn’t describe the depth of his regret!!
If he’d done it earlier, it would have only cost him a few dozen points to reach Level 2. Then the system’s reward would have promoted it to Level 3, saving him a total of 2,000 Battle God Points!
Now, to get his Finishing Move to Level 3, he would have to spend 2,000 Battle God Points and land 100 effective attacks with it!!
’The Level 2 Finishing Move is already this powerful; how incredible would it be at Level 3?’
For now, with the Level 2 Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash, forget the increase in power—the 20x20 meter range alone left Tang Yi immensely satisfied!
The area of effect was significantly larger!
Tang Yi had several area-of-effect attacks, such as Ten Thousand Miles Ice Seal, Celestial Heart Guidance, and Blood Qi Burst.
However, none of those skills were as practical as Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash.
Ten Thousand Miles Ice Seal had a cast time. Celestial Heart Guidance was a linear attack. Blood Qi Burst only lasted for ten seconds, relied on his willpower thereafter, and couldn’t be aimed at specific targets—enemies had to get close on their own.
All three skills had their limitations.
But aside from consuming Battle God Value, Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash had no such restrictions!
It was fast to cast, powerful, and could be unleashed at any time and any place! It was incredibly practical—a must-have skill for grinding and leveling up!
If the Battle God Value requirement was removed, its Evaluation would be even higher!
If a mere Level 2 Finishing Move was already this formidable and practical, what would a Level 3 be like?
’If I had gotten the skill to Level 3 before the reward, would the system have then helped me promote it to Level 4? And what would the power and range of a Level 4 version be?’
At this thought, Tang Yi could have stamped his feet and pounded his chest with regret. ’I completely wasted a grand prize,’ he thought, ’wasted a golden opportunity for a quick boost.’
But there was no use crying over spilled milk. The rewards had already been collected; nothing could be said or done about it now.
’Besides, Level 2 has its perks,’ he rationalized. ’The Battle God Value consumption is lower. Who knows how many Battle God Points a Level 3 or Level 4 version would cost per cast!’
The current cost of 20 Battle God Points per cast was perfect for Tang Yi to use for grinding levels!
Thinking this way, Tang Yi immediately felt consoled.
Looking at the Finishing Move’s Attribute Panel and hearing the distant howls of Demon Beasts from deep within the Valley of Desolation, Tang Yi couldn’t help but smile.
It was time to start pulling monsters again, time to begin another Frenzy leveling journey.
’I hope I can kill as many Demon Beasts as possible and gain as many levels as I can before the West Mansion Outer Mansion’s grand tournament!!’
