CULTIVATION: WHEN YOU TAKE THINGS TO THE EXTREME

Chapter 952: Chapter 589: Harvest

The cold prompt of the Sky-reaching Tower sounded, and the Fighting Spirit within Xu Yang’s body drained away, naturally unsealing the closed acupoints. The surging Qi Blood and the pounding heart abruptly ceased and returned to calm.

“You have terminated the Unrivaled·Divine Martial state!”

“Your body has suffered serious damage, and your Unrivaled Value is permanently reduced by ten points.”

“You have fallen into a (31X100) hour Weak state, your Physical Attribute has dropped to one-tenth of its original value, and most equipment Skills will lose their effects during this time.”

“…”

As a record of battle refreshed, Xu Yang suddenly felt a wave of weakness assail him, not only unable to handle the long spear in his hands but also tumbling down from his war horse.

“My Lord!”

Fortunately, Hua Mulan was quick to react, catching him in her arms with a look of anxious concern, “How are you?”

“Your affinity with Hua Mulan has increased to 100 points!”

“…”

“It’s nothing!”

Xu Yang shook his head, forcing himself to stand up, “Clean the battlefield, and leave quickly.”

Seeing him like this, Hua Mulan didn’t say much else and nodded in agreement, “Yes!”

After speaking, she instructed her soldiers to clean up the battlefield, while she herself helped Xu Yang to sit down on the spot.

Xu Yang didn’t insist on standing anymore, sitting down to slowly regulate his breathing. Although it didn’t do much, it helped his body to recover a little.

Sealing acupoints with True Qi to stimulate potential, this Martial Arts Secret Technique was indeed extreme, and its use would surely result in Serious Damage to the Vital Energy and possibly even harm the Foundation.

If it were any ordinary world, Xu Yang wouldn’t care much, as he had plenty of ways to recuperate.

But in this world where the Data Law drastically changes everything, without Martial Arts True Energy or other resources, he could only honestly accept the Weak state following the use of Skills. For the next 129 days, his Physical Attribute would be reduced to one-tenth, which is only 1.8 points.

With such attributes, one could hardly do anything; even farming would require resting after every three strikes of the hoe.

However, it was only fair, given that the effects of the Divine Martial Skills were so powerful, it only made sense to pay some price.

Although he would be incapacitated for three months, having slain two Lords and many powerful Magic Type Soldiers in one go and capturing a territory fulfilled his expansion needs, the sacrifice was well worth it.

…

Ignoring the minor injuries, what came next was the eagerly anticipated post-battle loot collection.

The spoils of this battle could be generally classified into three categories: troop drops, Lord and Hero drops, and special spoils.

There’s not much to say about the troop drops, Jin Luo might be a veteran Lord, but his strength was only average. The most elite troops in his territory were those few dozen Jurchen Eight Banners soldiers.

These Jurchen Eight Banners were similar to the Escort Army Iron Cavalry of the Jin Country civilization encountered before, and because they were farmed in groups, the quality of spoils was limited, basically nothing more than materials to be sold at the shop for cash, nothing noteworthy.

The main focus was on the Black Lotus Sect troops brought by Jin Ling…

Black Lotus Curse Clothing (Damaged)

Equipment Order: First-Order (Epic)

Equipment Attributes: 60 Protection, 40 Magic Damage, 20 Poison Damage (only for use by Black Lotus Soldiers)

Equipment Introduction: Stripped from the Blood Flesh Puppet, this Black Lotus Curse Clothing, condensed with Black Lotus Evil Power and the essence of flesh and blood, cannot be used by non-Black Lotus Sect followers (after establishing Civilization Wonders, it can be offered as a sacrifice to obtain Experience, Reputation, and special rewards)

…

Blood Flesh Puppets and Black Lotus Magicians dropped quite a few spoils, but all of them were equipment limited to the Black Lotus Soldier type and other civilizations were unable to use them. They could only be offered to Civilization Wonders in exchange for rewards.

According to the introduction, the rewards should be quite generous, but Xu Yang hasn’t built any Civilization Wonders yet, so these Black Lotus War Spoils will have to stay in the warehouse for a while.

That’s all for the troop drops; the main highlight is the drop from the Lords and Heroes, or more precisely, from Jin Ling.

A powerful Lord ranked over 8,000 on the Reputation list with Magic Type Soldiers was bound to have substantial wealth.

Add to that Jin Luo, the supporting actor, and a few Jurchen Heroes, the final haul was quite impressive.

Ten Thousand Arrows Fired Simultaneously (Treatise)

Item Type: Second Order (Epic)

Item Effect: Requirement of 20 Intelligence, 35 Charm, Second-order Commander LV10, Second Order Tactics LV10, First Order Strong Bow LV10, upon use learns the Heroic Skill — Ten Thousand Arrows Fired Simultaneously!

Heroic Skill: Ten Thousand Arrows Fired Simultaneously (Orders all archers to unleash a simultaneous volley. Every five points of Intelligence/Charm and one level of Commander/Tactics/Strong Bow adds one arrow per soldier. Cooldown time ten hours. Using it consumes fifty Morale, cannot be activated if Morale is below one hundred points)

Item Introduction: Hear my command, Ten Thousand Arrows Fired Simultaneously!

…

The first item was a Second Order Epic treatise, an advanced special skill “Ten Thousand Arrows Fired Simultaneously!” to the previous “Thousand Arrows.”

The effect of Ten Thousand Arrows Fired Simultaneously need not be said; according to the minimum Attribute and Skill requirements to learn this special skill, it could add sixty-one arrows per soldier.

What does that represent?

For instance, taking the 150 Mulan archers under Hua Mulan, if each was to fire an additional sixty-one arrows, 150 archers would mean 9,150 arrows in a single volley, nearly ten thousand arrows fired at once — the scene was unimaginable, definitely a Divine Skill capable of capturing cities and killing enemies on the battlefield.

Without further ado, Xu Yang immediately allocated the treatise to Hua Mulan.

“You have granted a rare treasure to your Hero!”

“Your affinity with Hua Mulan has increased to 110 points.”

“…”

Hearing the prompt from the Sky-reaching Tower, and seeing Hua Mulan’s expression, Xu Yang shook his head without further comment and turned his attention to the second item.
