Chapter 945: Beyond Wildest Expectations
[The system deems the Prime Azure Energy you've created to be a more suitable type of energy to be used for your skills.]
[With that, the system has taken it upon itself to adjust all active and passive skills reliant on Azure Energy to shift to using Prime Azure Energy, adjusting the cost, potency, and efficiency of the conversions accordingly.]
[The system has also taken it upon itself to grant you the ability to use Prime Azure Energy on other skills, though only under the condition that said skill uses either Shadow Energy or mana.]
[Making use of Prime Azure Energy on skills that mainly run on either Shadow Energy or mana shall be granted a 20% multiplicative boost to their potency.]
Skipping over the notifications he'd already read while still in the depths of his inner self, Valyr's eyes widened in slight surprise after seeing how much the system seemed to favor his creation of Prime Azure Energy.
It even went so far as to retrofit most, if not all of his skills to make use of the new energy he'd just formed, a stark contrast to how he had to manually do all of that back when he first obtained Azure Energy.
Taking in a few deep breaths to compose himself, Valyr went ahead and took a look at the main skills he'd be using once he left the Shadow Plane.
Focusing his attention on both [Four Paths Azure Magic Arts] and [Four Paths Azure War Arts], the young man took notice that the cost to activate each technique had been reduced, with their cooldown receiving the same treatment as well.
Even [Four Paths Azure Liberation], the transcendental technique he'd just obtained not long ago, had been modified by the system to make use of Prime Azure Energy.
Though the reduction in cost was only minimal at best, from 80% to 75% of his maximum energy reserves, the cooldown of the transcendental technique had been cut in half to 12 hours.
Not only that, but the techniques he'd gain access if he were to enter the state of Liberation had been changed as well, taking up a smaller portion of his reserves while unleashing considerably higher power.
Thinking that it wouldn't be much of a problem for him to slowly get acquainted with the effects of Prime Azure Energy on his other skills, his thoughts shifted towards the last notification among them, prompting him to test it out.
"[Limit Break: Second Verse]."
Whoosh!
Activating the skill with the help of Prime Azure Energy, Valyr immediately felt that the skill was amplifying his stats by a bit more than it used to.
Wanting to be sure that the sensation wasn't just a mere hallucination, he then proceeded to activate [Second Encore], which would have normally boosted his stats by 25% in total.
Swoosh!
However, thanks to the effects given by the system, the combination of the two skills now boosted his stats by a total of 30%, increasing his combat prowess by a substantial amount.
Then again, considering that all of his stat-boosting and combat-boosting skills were activated through mana, this change basically meant his peak combat prowess reaching an even higher level.
'From what could I understand, the better subclass would only come about if I complete the prerequisite quests, while the title is something they've already upgraded for me.'
'That's definitely a lot more than I thought I would get, considering I wasn't really expecting any rewards from upgrading my Azure Energy,' muttered the young man to himself, letting out a faint chuckle soon after.
'And to think I'd get more once I ascend through the next two class ranks?'
'Kind of makes me curious what those rewards are.' Pushing the thought of the rewards to the side, Valyr went over his last few remaining notifications, immediately noticing that they were notifications related to completing his prerequisite quests.
Ding!
[Due to the intervention of the Saintess and the Overseer of the Shadow Plane, the prerequisite quests for your subclass have been modified accordingly.]
[You have obtained the prerequisite quest: Evolve the concept of the Shadow within Prime
Azure Energy to the concept of the Void (0/1).]
[You have completed a prerequisite quest to ascend your subclass to the next rarity.]
[Improve the quality of one's Prime Azure Energy to the Echo stage (1/1).]
[You have completed a prerequisite quest to ascend your subclass to the next rarity.]
[Increase one's Prime Azure Energy reserves to 10,000 (1/1).]
'Wait... what?' Glossing over the new prerequisite quest for the meantime, Valyr nodded in satisfaction when the system confirmed that he'd improve the quality of his energy to the
Echo stage.
However, that satisfaction swiftly turned into confusion the moment he read that he'd also increased his reserves to 10,000.
'Even if Prime Azure Energy took over the spot of my Azure Energy reserves, don't I only have like 300 points of it at the moment?' asked the young man to himself. 'What the heck did I do to have it go up to 10,000 all of a sudden?'
Wondering if the system was messing around with him, Valyr went ahead and opened up his status screen to take a better look at his Prime Azure Energy reserves.
And what he saw was far beyond even his wildest expectations.
Ding!
Prime Azure Energy: 12,372/12,372
