"Upgrading from LV.1 to LV.MAX in one go is indeed different. Originally, Heaven and Earth Devourer could only increase the artifact consumption effect by 5%, but now it has directly turned into 50%, amplifying it by half, which becomes quite considerable.
Moreover, this ability to increase artifact consumption effect can still form a linkage with Hundred Taboos."
For example, previously Zhang Yanhang was unable to use the red and yellow pills, but now Zhang Yanhang can not only use the blue quality red and yellow pills normally, but also rely on the 50% effect bonus provided by Heaven and Earth Devourer.
The red and yellow pills that could originally only increase the Life Value Limit by six points can now increase the Life Value Limit by nine points. This can be said to be quite powerful.
"Speaking of which, since this thing can enhance artifacts, is it possible to enhance the effects of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures?"
Although Zhang Yanhang hasn't obtained too many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures recently because he hasn't stayed long in the Main World, he has to admit that Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are quite important to him. If it could indeed enhance even those, it should definitely help him increase a lot of related benefits.
"After upgrading to LV.MAX, Heaven and Earth Devourer's skill consumption changed from originally consuming only a small amount of Physical Strength to consuming a slight amount of Physical Strength, just not sure whether this slight amount is of the degree similar to Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil or Death Wave."
Logically speaking, Heaven and Earth Devourer is not an attack skill but more like a support skill, so Zhang Yanhang feels that Heaven and Earth Devourer should not consume as much Physical Strength as Death Wave, and is likely more inclined to Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil.
However, the specific Physical Strength consumption still needs to be determined after actual usage, and even if the Physical Strength consumption is slightly higher, he doesn't really need to be afraid.
After all, Zhang Yanhang has just been promoted in Rank and with the increase in Attribute Values, his Stamina limit should at least be multiplied several times. Even if it is as high as Death Wave, it definitely can support quite a lot of time.
"The previous Stomach Space was a cube with a length, width, and height of one hundred meters each, but now after upgrading to LV.MAX, each dimension increased by nine hundred meters, turning into a cube with a side length of one thousand meters. The volume of Stomach Space also increased from one million cubic meters to an astonishing one billion cubic meters."
Honestly, Zhang Yanhang even feels that even the original hundred cubic meters was not considered small, after all, even considering the storage box and all those waist bags, he had only a total of a thousand grids, which means a total of just over a thousand cubic meters.
Therefore, comparing this, it can be said that now the volume of one billion cubic meters is frighteningly large, he feels he should find it difficult to fill it up.
In other words, the size of Stomach Space's volume should not become a matter of concern for him in the future, and he only needs to think about how to fill it efficiently and economically.
"But to some extent, although one billion cubic meters seems large, in the end, it is just a cube with each side measuring one thousand meters. A small mountain like Beiling Mountain with its highest elevation of just over one hundred meters could only hold a few thousand of these mountains."
Thinking this way, Zhang Yanhang suddenly feels that this Stomach Space is indeed ridiculously large.
"Apart from the growth in Stomach Space's volume, the absorption efficiency of Stomach Space also became higher; originally it was only 0.5%, but it is increased nine times, enhancing by 4.5%, directly rising from the previous 0.5% to 5%.
This correspondingly results in my Energy Value absorption efficiency or rather Energy Value recovery efficiency directly rising from the previous two points per second to twenty points per second, equivalent to another tenfold increase."
If he recovers twenty Energy Values per second, then Zhang Yanhang could restore one thousand two hundred Energy Values in a minute, seventy-two thousand Energy Values in an hour, and one million seven hundred twenty-eight thousand Energy Values in twenty-four hours a day.
"Good heavens, is this possibly the legendary infinite energy plugin?"
Zhang Yanhang simply calculated, if based on his previous Energy Value limit of 8280 points, he would only need 6.9 minutes, approximately seven minutes, to refill a bar of blue.
"Previously LV.1 of Heaven and Earth Devourer could let me restore all Energy Values in sixty-nine minutes, which was thirty times my normal Energy Value recovery speed, and now LV.MAX of Heaven and Earth Devourer lets me recover all Energy Values in 6.9 minutes, reducing the time by tenfold, which becomes three hundred times my normal Energy Value recovery speed."
Before, Zhang Yanhang had intuitively perceived that the Energy Value recovery speed might rise to three hundred times, and now, it really fulfilled his expectations.
"Three hundred times the Energy Value recovery speed... If I were a Mage, wouldn't I be invincible? But regretfully I'm a melee brute... Oh, wait, turns out I am indeed a Mage."
Even though he only gained spell-casting ability thanks to the Scroll Dragon Bloodline's Spell List, and most of the time he is too lazy to use spells to kill enemies, he must admit that Zhang Yanhang even when depending on Talents' inherent spells would be much stronger than the formal Same Tier Mages.
"In this case, it seems that afterward efforts should be made to upgrade the Talent Level of the Scroll Dragon Bloodline, not too much, just enhance it to the Nine-cylinder Spell so I can learn Time Pause."
Hmm, even though Wish Spell, also a Nine-cylinder spell, has extremely high strength, perhaps doesn't need much learning, as Zhang Yanhang feels that maybe Wish Spell is less reliable than his Multiple Choice. After all, both consume Energy Values to make wishes, he believes more in Multiple Choice, mainly because Multiple Choice is more humanized and better understands his needs.
But with Wish Spell, it often completes wishes in some absurd ways, like if you wish for equality for everyone in a city, there may soon be demons who suddenly come to turn you all into slaves, achieving true sense of identity equality.
Therefore, the most correct usage of Wish Spell is to make your request clear, preferably specify your wish to a certain matter, and all possible details it may contain, otherwise Wish Spell may interpret your intentions misleadingly.
And in actual battle, Legendary Mages are more often use Wish Spells to instant-cast some spells they haven't learned but profoundly influence the battle processes, for example, instant-casting a Time Pause, or instant-casting a high-power attack spell, these specific request directions not only have low energy consumption, but also the highest success rate.
"Speaking of which, if I had previously selected the option to enhance Energy Value recovery speed in the Intelligence Attribute's Main Attribute reward, would my Energy Value recovery speed now be even faster?
Sigh, I knew it, why did one Attribute value option suddenly disappear and instead transform into an Energy Value recovery speed bonus; it turns out to be the best option recommended by Multiple Choice after I had acquired the Heaven and Earth Devourer skill."
But unfortunately, even though Multiple Choice knew the skill effect of Zhang Yanhang's Heaven and Earth Devourer, Zhang Yanhang hadn't read it at the time, so he didn't know. In retrospect, it was no longer a hint, but a blatant statement.
"This kind of thing is probably the legendary foreshadowing..."
Zhang Yanhang now somewhat regrets it, but there is no way around it. However, the Energy Value recovery speed is not considered a rare Additional Attribute. Zhang Yanhang feels he still has a very good chance to acquire it later, and in large quantities too.
It's just that whenever Zhang Yanhang thinks of this Energy Value recovery speed bonus, he inexplicably recalls the saying, 'Today you ignore me, tomorrow you can't reach me.' It's truly a rustic slap in the face moment.
"Apart from the Skill Effect enhanced during the upgrade process of the Heaven and Earth Devourer skill itself, the Additional Attributes obtained when the Heaven and Earth Devourer skill is improved to LV.6 and LV.MAX are also important.
The Additional Attribute at LV.6 gives me the ability to freely control the absorption efficiency of the Stomach Space, but only from 0% to 100%. It cannot increase efficiency beyond this, nor can it absorb negatively, meaning using my Energy Value to further enhance things inside the Stomach Space.
And objects with an absorption efficiency of 0% are in a static state. Does this static mean that space is static, or time is static, or, like the Waist Bag, both time and space are static together?
If everything is static, wouldn't this Heaven and Earth Devourer's Stomach Space be somewhat similar to the small world inside Zhao Yalan's Chaotic Eye? Both can be used to store things?"
Of course, storing them is easy, but what's important is being able to retrieve them at any time. For this, Zhang Yanhang thinks the 'ruminant' ability among the Additional Attributes obtained when the Heaven and Earth Devourer skill reaches LV.MAX is quite good.
"The ruminant Additional Attribute of Heaven and Earth Devourer at LV.MAX allows me to spit out things I have swallowed into the Stomach Space, and combining this with the static effect of 0% absorption rate, indeed, the Stomach Space can be used to store things, especially items with large volumes."
As for the application of this ruminant ability during combat, Zhang Yanhang believes he can also learn from Zhao Yalan's advanced experiences using the Chaotic Eye, by storing several mountains inside and then using them to smash enemies in battle.
"Besides, I don't know if this Heaven and Earth Devourer skill can devour objects that are in motion? If it can, does that mean I can swallow cannon bullets and directly shoot them out of my mouth in battle?"
Considering that the ruminant ability seems to allow speed adjustment, Zhang Yanhang even suspects that shooting with his mouth might be faster than shooting with a regular cannon, as he could spit out a whole bunch at once.
Moreover, the most important thing is, Zhang Yanhang has four mouths. These four mouths, if nothing unexpected happens, should all be normally connected to the Stomach Space and can all use the ruminant ability, which alone can quadruple the Fire Rate.
"When I first acquired the Heaven and Earth Devourer skill, I felt it was rather weak, but now it seems its unexpected strength is equally ridiculously high. I told you, Multiple Choice couldn't possibly give me a useless Professional skill. It turns out the strength is as high as ever."
However, compared to other skills, Heaven and Earth Devourer is indeed a skill that requires higher subjective initiative to truly bring out its potential.
"So, the question arises, what exactly is the efficiency of the true power of this Heaven and Earth Devourer, which is to increase my size by absorbing Energy? Is it one point of Energy Value for one nanometer? Well, that shouldn't be the case, since one millimeter equals one million nanometers.
If it were really at this ratio, I wouldn't even increase by two millimeters a day, and it would take a week to increase by one centimeter."
Zhang Yanhang thinks the energy conversion ratio related to this size-increasing capability from energy absorption is definitely much higher than this, otherwise, it would be too useless, and the Professional skill of the Heavenly Destiny Master couldn't be that useless.
"But exactly what kind of conversion ratio it is still needs to be determined through actual testing later."
Zhang Yanhang can only hope that this relevant energy conversion ratio will be as high as possible.
"Suddenly remembered something, now that there's the Stomach Space, can it replace the Waist Bag?
But the thing is, using the Waist Bag is actually quite convenient, and originally it was about to be phased out due to being only of Blue quality, but it has now been resurrected due to the Hundred Taboos Skill. Not only can it accompany him through the Fourth Tier, but even the Fifth Tier isn't a problem."
Because retrieving items from the Stomach Space requires extra Physical Strength, while the Waist Bag can be used for free, and since Zhang Yanhang is also quite accustomed to using the Waist Bag, he feels it's more convenient to store small items in the Waist Bag, and only larger items need to be stored in the Stomach Space.
"Speaking of the Waist Bag, I initially planned to put everything from the Waist Bag into the Storage Box before advancing in rank, but in my rush to advance afterward, I completely forgot about it.
Fortunately, the newly acquired Hundred Taboos Skill still allows me to freely use the Waist Bag, otherwise, I would really have had to ask Zhou Muxi or Zhao Yalan for help to take out the items from the Waist Bag."
Zhang Yanhang is quite reluctant to owe favors in such odd circumstances.
After checking the Skill Effect of the Heaven and Earth Devourer at LV.MAX, Zhang Yanhang immediately opened his Soul Points balance and began to check it, as he needs to continue improving other skills next.
[Soul Points: 12,634,917 (-3,270,400)]
"Although I have just upgraded the Heaven and Earth Devourer skill from LV.1 to LV.MAX, it actually only consumed 200,000 more Soul Points compared to the regular upgrade from LV.6 to LV.MAX, which is 3,070,000."
After consuming 3,270,400 Soul Points, Zhang Yanhang's Soul Points balance dropped from 15,905,317 to 12,634,917. But although it decreased, it still remains above ten million, which can still be used to upgrade some skills.
