Chapter 101 Entering the Ice Cave!

"The only flaw is that this skill consumes too much mental energy."

Su Ming only maintained the temporary blood sword for more than a minute before feeling that less than half of his mental energy was consumed.

This consumption is indeed too much.

But after all, it is a powerful skill created out of thin air. It is extremely sophisticated and has a complicated mechanism.

In theory, it is even more difficult to achieve than the simple destructive effect of some combat skills.

It is normal to consume more.

"When this skill continues to evolve and reaches epic and ancient times, will it be possible to create thousands of swords out of thin air with just a raise of your hands?"

"That means Wan Jian returns to the clan!"

Su Ming couldn't help but feel confused.

Then, he flicked his wrist.

Disarmed this makeshift weapon.

Wow!

The blood sword immediately shattered and dissipated, turning into a pool of broken blood-colored iron stone and falling to the ground.

He had no regrets. After all, it was a temporary weapon and would eventually be disarmed.

With blood loss every second and a huge consumption of mental energy, it was naturally impossible for Su Ming to maintain it forever.

Now that there are no enemies, it would be a waste to maintain it.

This skill of making temporary weapons is best used only in battle.

Su Ming decided on his profession and then took out all Wang Yanghui's trophies.

All used [Sublimation of All Things] to undergo a wave of upgrades.

[Sublimation successful! 】

[Sublimation successful! 】

[Sublimation successful! 】

The sound kept ringing.

The value has doubled several times.

The stick has also been upgraded to a mid-grade diamond quality.

Can be sold at a good price.

Then Su Ming came to the deep pool and took a deep breath.

"We're almost ready...it's time to go in."

He took out the ancient snake's poisonous gallbladder, raised his head, squeezed out a drop of juice, and poured it into his throat.

It had been a few minutes since I last swallowed this bile, and the effect was about to disappear.

The poisonous immunity provided by bile can only last for a short period of time, so Su Ming swallowed another drop now to be on the safe side.

This way you will be foolproof.

[Acquire temporary BUFF: high poison immunity, lasting for a short period of time! 】

There may be severe poison underwater, so Su Ming was very careful and made preparations.

Then, he took out another piece of equipment.

[Rebreathing Mask (Silver Medium Grade)]

This is the equipment dropped by Wang Yanghui. After wearing it, it can increase the speed of mental recovery.

"Try to see if it can be transformed into an underwater diving mask."

Su Ming happened to have just changed his profession and became a cursed blacksmith.

He used [Forging Power] to dismantle the elements and materials in the mask.

Eliminate the useless stuff.

The basic substrate is formed.

A gray-black mask was revealed in mid-air, surrounded by many white fluorescent lights, which was the power of forging.

Afterwards, Su Ming took out a lot of animal materials from his personal space.

Including [mutated wild boar lungs], [poisonous fish gills], [cartilage tendons and ropes], etc.

They were all materials that he had already had but failed to sell.

I didn't expect it to come in handy today.

Su Ming had leveled up in the novice copy and had killed many different types of mutated beasts, so he had a lot of beast materials.

He carefully used the power of forging to combine these materials.

This is a job that must be done with caution.

If you are not careful, all materials will be scrapped.

Other professional blacksmiths generally have hammers, furnaces, machine tools and other tools to assist in forging.

That way you can get twice the result with half the effort.

The forger's machine, hammer, and furnace are their weapons, just like the swordsman's sword.

Su Ming currently does not have any forging tools, so he can only modify it purely with the power of forging without using any auxiliary tools.

As you can imagine, it requires a lot of consumption.

Finally, sweating profusely, he succeeded!

[Forging successful! 】

[Obtain gill air mask (high grade silver)]

[After wearing it, you will gain the ability to breathe underwater. 】

[There are requirements for water quality. If it is a water area with too many impurities and toxicity, oxygen cannot be extracted from water molecules. 】

The effect is pretty good.

"Success is success."

"But... the mental power consumed by combining the forging equipment is a bit too much..."

Su Ming murmured.

He was a little shocked. Forging the equipment officially consumed several times more mental energy than the [Extracting Artifact].

It seems that you must not forge equipment in battle, otherwise you will be seeking death.

Only the skill of [Extracting Weapons], a temporary weapon-making skill, can still be used reluctantly in battle.

A life-based career is indeed a life-based career.

It really doesn't work when used in battle, it consumes too much.

After Su Ming put on this mask, he suddenly felt that his breathing sounds had changed.

And there was a faint tremor in his heart.

The air he breathed in had a bloody smell of animal material.

He doesn't have high requirements either, as long as he can use it.

"Everything is ready, you can go in!"

"Epic props, here I come."

He raised his hand and put all the swords back into their scabbards.

Then he dove in.

Jumped into the ice cave.

As soon as I dived into the water, I felt the bitingly cold ice water covering my whole body!

It was as if countless steel needles penetrated every pore of Su Ming.

Under the water, the temperature reached at least dozens of degrees below zero.

Ordinary career changers, in this environment, would not be able to survive for a few minutes before dying.

Fortunately, Su Ming's physical attributes are very high, so he didn't die immediately.

But he couldn't hold on for a few hours.

If it were normal water, it would have frozen at this temperature.

But the water in this copy has a special texture and different physical properties from Blue Star.

So at this temperature, it didn't freeze.

The ice surface above is very thick, blocking the sunlight.

It's extremely depressing underwater.

Su Ming went as deep as possible.

In the ice water, you can still see many traces of blood.

These bloods were left by Wang Yanghui's previous injury, and they actually provided Su Ming with a direction.

Because the temperature is too low, the water flow is quiet and inactive, so these bloodstains are not washed away too much.

Following the bloodstains, it should be right.

Su Ming slowly dived.

He felt that the speed was too slow, so he simply raised his hand and grasped it.

Whoosh!

The Mo Luo Sword in the personal space floated out.

Using the sword control skill, he controlled the sword and flew in front of Su Ming, spinning forward.

This is Su Ming's heaviest sword.

The heavier it is, the more water it can attract, forming a small vortex.

This sword opens a path in front.

Su Ming can move forward easily without having to bear the pressure of the water completely.

Su Ming followed his sword and dived all the way.

In fact, he could pull the hilt of the sword with his hand, and control the sword with his body, so that he could rush out dozens of meters in an instant.

However, this consumes a lot of mental power!

He can only use it for a moment, which is his limit!

Because the sword control skill, in theory, has not yet reached the level that can carry Su Ming's own body.

It's like you can't pull yourself up by your hair.

The same is true for the sword control skill.

This skill needs to be upgraded to a very high level before it can carry yourself to move and fly.

What Su Ming can do now is to drive the sword blade to step into the air for a short time, step on it, and stop for a while.

He often uses this trick to change his position in mid-air.

But it is difficult to maintain it for a long time.

In order to save mental power, Su Ming decided to move slowly.

Anyway, he has a mask that allows him to breathe underwater.

Su Ming swam in the water without hurrying or slowing down.

He held his breath for 5 minutes and felt that he was about to reach his limit.

"Try the effect of this mask."

He thought to himself.

Then, he began to breathe underwater with his lungs.

Breath... Inhale...

Huahuahua.

Bubbles surged.

Success!

This mask really allows breathing underwater.

However, the conversion rate to air is a bit low.

It is very heavy and laborious to breathe.

Because this water area is not clean, it is full of frozen mutant fish.

Su Ming saw many mutant fish along the way.

Many fish are highly poisonous, and gradually the water here is contaminated with poison.

So Su Ming had a lot of effort to breathe.

But he didn't ask for much, as long as he could breathe.

After a few minutes, Su Ming came to the end of Wang Yanghui's bloodstain.

In the dark water, he had to activate the Eye of Insight to barely see clearly.

But... Su Ming did not find any trace of epic props.

There is nothing here!

There is only quiet water around.

It is dark underwater. If it were not for the Eye of Insight, Su Ming could not even see the road ahead.

"What's going on? Did I find the wrong one?"

Su Ming was filled with surprise.

There is no trace of epic props here.

"What went wrong?"

He frowned and was a little worried.

He used the Eye of Insight to scan the surroundings.

The waters were ordinary and there was nothing unusual.
