Finality Building, Refining Netherworld Source Essence, Ghost God Form!
Mad King Building.
The Ironblood Arena.
The black fog in front of Dormitory 200 had dissipated, but Xu Lang and his group were not in the dormitory; instead, they had all come to the Ironblood Arena.
It was also a coincidence that they encountered the newly opened Ironblood Arena as soon as they returned.
This new building is called "The Finality Building," and right now, players of the Finality Building are fighting each other.
Some people came to the Mad King Building, the Sacrifice Building, the Sky Dome Building, and the Strange Tales Building.
Before long, the two players from the Finality Building determined a winner.
Then, a player from Sacrifice Building and a player from Finality Building started a new Duel.
Everyone perked up a bit.
These two players had never been to the Arena before; it was a complete rookie vs. rookie match.
The final winner was the player from the Sacrifice Building.
The players in the Finality Building were newcomers, unfamiliar with the rules, and their deaths were to be expected given their rash acceptance of challenges from other players.
The beam between the two buildings was now in place.
Xu Lang glanced at the Nightmare Eye and saw that the players of the Finality Building had a very strong sense of unity.
Seeing that there were no new matches, Xu Lang led Cao Yaxuan and the others away.
"Xu Lang, what do you think of that Finality Building? Although I've never heard of it before, it has the qualifications to Unsealed Arena, so its potential must be extraordinary." After leaving the Arena, Han Jisoo looked at Xu Lang.
She comes from the Grandmaster Building and is very interested in Duel.
"I don't have any particular opinion about the players in the Finality Building, but I'm a little curious about the Ironblood Arena... Haven't you noticed? The resources in the Ironblood Arena have become much richer, which means it's growing!" Xu Lang replied with a smile.
Han Jisoo's eyes lit up, and she flexed her wrists. "Perhaps there will be new competition rules in the future? To be honest, I think the 'play-to-the-death' rule is still too cruel. If it weren't for this rule, the Arena would be very lively, with matches to watch every day."
"Maybe." Xu Lang wasn't entirely sure either.
As they walked, they happened to run into Wu Huihui and a group of players from the Tenth Floor.
After exchanging greetings for a while, Cao Yaxuan smiled and said, "Huihui, are you going to watch the match? It's already over."
"Ah, is it over already?" Wu Huihui, who loved to flaunt her equipment, had a weathered face that gave her a more robust and somber look. Paired with her imposing heavy armor, her demeanor was completely different from before.
As she gained more experience, the hesitation and sentimentality in Wu Huihui's eyes disappeared, replaced by a cold light and decisiveness.
"What's the quality of the players in the Finality Building like? Do they have any special methods?" Wang Tingting asked.
She was dressed in a tattered black stocking, her eyes glancing at Xu Lang every now and then as she spoke, still thinking about the wonderful prospect of moving into Dormitory 200.
"It's alright, they only played a couple of matches, so it's hard to tell much," Wang Yazhi said with a faint smile.
Upon hearing this, Wu Huihui nodded and replied, "Thank you, then we won't go over there."
As Wu Huihui watched Xu Lang and his group walk towards the Mad King Building, her eyes flickered.
"Huihui, I heard that black fog appeared in Lang Ge's dormitory before," Nie Xiaozhu said in a low voice.
"It's not good to ask. If he needs help, he'll naturally give the order." Wu Huihui shook her head, then sighed, "Ultimately, their positions are different. Some things are not for us to meddle in."
With the game's start approaching, there was a lot of preparation and arrangement needed for both buildings. As the head of the Platinum Luxury Apartment, Xu Lang and his team should have been quite busy.
However, in reality, Xu Lang and the others went straight back to their dormitories after watching the match.
With Nightmare Eye around, personnel selection is too easy.
Xu Lang saw those people with management qualifications and control, he didn't give any reason and directly poured resources into them, gaining loyalty while also truly establishing the "Mad King Community Committee".
So now it's the truly capable people who are managing things for Xu Lang. He and Cao Yaxuan only need to give instructions via private messages and rarely go out.
Many new players who arrived at the two Dormitory Building felt that the people in the Platinum Luxury Apartment were mysterious and unpredictable.
Upon receiving the news, Xu Lang and all the tenants showed up, while many people observed from the shadows.
"Is that Xu Lang? He has an air of imperial authority, so domineering."
Wow~ Cao Yaxuan and the others are wearing such high-end clothes, the quality must be Mythic!
"So beautiful, so incredibly beautiful..."
Some players, seeing the imposing presence of Xu Lang and his group, immediately felt ashamed and couldn't even muster the thought of challenging them.
Back home, Cao Yaxuan stretched. "I'll go open the window. The air in the Mad King Building is much more comfortable than in the Netherworld!"
The Platinum Luxury Apartment has an air purification system, but Cao Yaxuan actually misses the original, clean air of the Mad King Building.
Xu Lang took out seven pots of Epiphyllum and said, "Then go upstairs and graft these Epiphyllum."
"Grafting? How do you graft like that?" Cao Yaxuan stared wide-eyed.
"I don't know, let's ask in the Chat Room, there should be someone with gardening skills," Xu Lang said casually.
"Okay, okay." Cao Yaxuan opened the Chat Room.
A moment later, the door opened, and Yan Xiaoli, Jiang Xiaowen, Kui Zi came in.
Yan Xiaoli is the one with gardening skills.
She glanced around the living room, but didn't see Xu Lang, and a hint of disappointment appeared in her eyes.
Kui Zi's eyes flickered, sensing that Xu Lang should be in his Nightmare Bed at this moment.
She hadn't talked to Xu Lang much during this period.
After she couldn't fit into the Nightmare Bed, she was excluded.
But she was not discouraged; instead, she became even more determined.
There might be some explanation for whether the next round of game content will align with her progression system.
She used to want to move into Dormitory 200, but after the seventh round of the game, that idea might completely disappear!
On the Nightmare Bed, Xu Lang sat cross-legged, with the Purgatory March placed between his knees.
After a long pause, he exhaled and muttered, "Still not quite there. Level 15 is a hurdle for Martial God skills."
His progress was already fast enough, but thinking about the battle with Naraku, he felt a sense of crisis.
After thinking for a moment, he took out the Netherworld Source Essence.
"If we don't consider Nightmare Coins, I actually have two other ways to quickly become stronger: refining and advancing my Sequence."
The Netherworld Source Essence was slowly refined and integrated into his body.
Three minutes later, the Netherworld Source Essence was completely digested, and a system notification appeared.
[Congratulations on obtaining the Legendary buff "Ghost God Form"]
[Ghost God Form: Increases life potential, increases affinity with ghosts by 30%, increases spiritual perception by 10%, agility by 10%, explosive power by 10%, and self-healing ability by 10%. After death, the soul can enter the underworld and be reborn in the form of a ghost or god.]
"Tsk, this is indeed a top-notch product. If it weren't for the fact that it requires so many Nightmare Coins to upgrade, I would really like to give it a try."
Xu Lang sighed inwardly.
Since his experience upgrading the Strange Tales Magic Box during that trip, he can now roughly know where the "qualitative change threshold" is without data prompts.
To achieve a Netherworld Source Essence, you'll need at least 500,000 Nightmare Coins!
This thing looks unremarkable, but it's actually quite high-ranking.
"I've been underestimating the Holy Embryo's refining ability before, always treating it as just a recovery skill."
Xu Lang pondered for a moment, then took out a trolley battery.
The battery was quickly refined, leaving him full of energy and vitality.
He didn't stop, continuing to take out other energy-related items, including but not limited to batteries and soul crystals.
It encompasses a wide variety of things, spanning both the realms of mystery and technology.
About half an hour later, Xu Lang checked his personal attributes.
