Ch. 4032Power

After meditating for a moment, Su Xiao temporarily halted his skill ability upgrades. The reason was simple: he lacked "Blood Origin Matter" and couldn't raise "Blood Spear Grandmaster" to Lv.95.
While he could immediately head to the ancient battlefield, there was still significant room for combat power improvement. Su Xiao took out the [Supreme Passive Scroll Chest (★★★)]. This item was obtained as the top ranker on the prestige leaderboard in the previous world. Its most valuable aspect was:
"Prompt: Upon opening this chest, you are guaranteed to receive a Supreme Passive corresponding to a random physical attribute, and the quality of this Supreme Passive will be ★★★ (top-tier)."
Strength, Agility, Stamina, Intelligence, and Charisma – these five physical attributes each had a corresponding "Supreme Passive." Previously, there were seven "Basic Passives," with Perception and Soul being added. Now, "Supreme Passives" no longer included these two.
Among the five "Supreme Attribute Passives," any would be acceptable, even Charisma. He could simply trade it with other Supreme Contractors. However, "top-tier Supreme Attribute Passives" were rare and involved a degree of luck.
[You have opened the Supreme Passive Scroll Chest (★★★).]
[You have obtained Supreme·Intelligence (Skill Scroll).]
[Supreme·Intelligence.Lv.EX.]
Prompt: This is a "Supreme Passive" corresponding to the "Intelligence attribute." It starts at absolute max level and cannot be upgraded by any means.
Quality: ★★★ (Supreme Passives of this type range from ★ to ★★★).
Skill Requirement: Ascend to Supreme, one vacant "Supreme Passive·Skill Slot."
Skill Effect 1: Upon awakening after ascending to Supreme, it awakens the potential power within your True Intelligence attribute, granting each point of True Intelligence attribute 300 points of "Base Mana" growth.
Highest Quality "Supreme Passive" Effect: When your True Intelligence attribute exceeds 1000 points, each point of True Intelligence attribute will grant 1000 points of "Base Mana" growth.
Skill Effect 2: For every 1000 points of True Intelligence attribute, you will gain one "Main Equipment Slot."
Highest Quality "Supreme Passive" Effect: When your Intelligence attribute exceeds 1000 points, for every 1000 points of True Intelligence attribute you increase, you will gain an additional "Main Equipment Slot."
Skill Effect 3: Each point of your True Intelligence attribute increases Skill Ability Development Speed by 1%.
Highest Quality "Supreme Passive" Effect: When your Intelligence attribute exceeds 1000 points, each point of your True Intelligence attribute increases Skill Ability Development Speed by 3%.
Skill Effect 4: You have not ascended your True Intelligence attribute to its final form, "Supreme Intelligence Attribute," this effect cannot be activated.
Highest Quality "Supreme Passive" Effect: You have not ascended your True Intelligence attribute to its final form, "Supreme Intelligence Attribute," this effect cannot be activated.
...
The "Supreme Passive" corresponding to the Intelligence attribute was undoubtedly powerful. Furthermore, its third effect made Su Xiao realize something. He had originally thought that ascending to Supreme would be a qualitative leap after accumulation, but after truly ascending, while the accumulation did lead to a breakthrough, there was no qualitative change.
For example, in the first world after he ascended to Supreme, he had increased his physical attributes by over 600 points, raising Strength, Agility, Stamina, and Intelligence from just over 1000 points to 1700 points.
Now it seemed that physical attributes had one final ascent. Without a doubt, this must be the promotion corresponding to "Peak of Supremacy," which should be the ultimate strength. If not for the Leader and the Supreme Person, no, he should also add the current Abyss Lord.
From some subtle clues, Su Xiao learned something: the original Leader was actually in this tier. However, after a deadly battle with the previous Abyss Lord, the former Abyss Lord disappeared, and the Leader's strength dropped to "Peak of Supremacy."
The last time he drank the "Tree's Blessing," the Leader returned to his former height. As for who was stronger among the Leader, the current Abyss Lord, and the Supreme Person, Su Xiao leaned towards the Supreme Person.
The Supreme Person's goals and actions were truly unfathomable. He always calmly looked down upon everything. When the Arcane Eternal Star was attacked and the Black Maple Tree was affected by the Sun Holy Sword
