Fierce Horror Dorm: Take a Concubine to Get Stronger
Chapter 353: Soul Suppression: Purgatory March - If the sky falls, the dormitory building will be there to protect us!
In the Fusion Dream, over ten long blades were arrayed before him.
They were respectively the Blood Pelican Demon Blade, the Senluo Purple Blade, and two Blood Empire Standard Long Blades.
The other long blades were all weapons Xu Lang had purchased from the supermarket, their properties all related to slaughter.
First, he would use the properties of these long blades to temper the properties of the Senluo Purple Blade and the others, then fuse them with the Blood Pelican Demon Blade—this was the safest fusion method.
Xu Lang truly loved the Blood Pelican Demon Blade too much.
Although it was only level eight, its lethality was actually higher than that of the Blood Empire Standard Long Blades. This was precisely its heaven-defying aspect!
After a round of fusion, the levels of the two Blood Empire Standard Long Blades were diluted somewhat, but they became two Legendary weapons.
The two Legendary weapons fused with each other, becoming an even more ferocious weapon, the "Regicide." Its effects were no less dazzling than the Blood Pelican Demon Blade's, and its level was even higher!
The only pity was that it lacked growth potential.
Xu Lang sighed inwardly with regret, raised his hand to grasp the Blood Pelican Demon Blade, and refined it instantly.
Although the reinforcement level would be lost after upgrading, Xu Lang didn't care, since Wenwen was saving up Forging Essence for him anyway.
[Blood Pelican Demon Blade consumes 2000 Nightmare Coins, upgrades to level 9]
[Blood Pelican Demon Blade consumes 5000 Nightmare Coins, upgrades to level 10. Please choose upgrade direction]
[One, Shadow of Slaughter: Killing living beings improves its own quality. Possesses a Slaughter's Aura that intimidates living beings. Those struck experience tenfold pain and have their Vitality siphoned. Triggers "Instant Death" effect when target is on the Brink of Death (Legendary)]
[Two, Soul-Sealing Splendor Blade: Upon hitting a target, the blade's runes seal the enemy's Blood Qi and soul. Comes with skill "Dark Moon Slash" (Legendary)]
[Three, Tiger Soul: Actively infuse Blood Qi to increase the blade's sharpness. When striking an enemy, 1% chance to summon the legendary creature "Tiger Soul" (Legendary)]
"Tiger Soul has some lore behind it. If I infuse it with my Seven Killings Blood Qi, the summoned Tiger Soul might be even stronger." Xu Lang gave the Tiger Soul option a reluctant glance, then raised his hand and chose Shadow of Slaughter.
It was a bit of a shame not to get an Epic weapon.
Upgrading Shadow of Slaughter further would cost tens of thousands of Nightmare Coins.
Xu Lang didn't upgrade it. Instead, he fused Shadow of Slaughter with Regicide.
Brilliant light flashed ahead, and finally, a divine weapon with top-tier attributes in every aspect appeared!
But... its effects hadn't improved that much!
Both Shadow of Slaughter and Regicide were top-tier among Legendary weapons. Without undergoing a metamorphosis, their effects would always be stuck at the Legendary level.
Even if the level increased, it would only boost the numerical values, not cause a fundamental transformation!
"Dammit, I pushed the weapon all the way to level twenty in one go. Now I want to upgrade, but I can't even afford it."
Xu Lang cursed under his breath and turned his gaze to the Senluo Purple Blade.
This was the last lone seedling.
[Nightmare Eye·Senluo Purple Blade: The weapon Raphael used when he first made a name for himself. A level twenty Legendary long blade, once renowned and formidable]
Start the fusion!
The two blades converged ahead, their essence constantly mingling.
Xu Lang felt a bit overwhelmed. The properties within the essence were too chaotic, making it very difficult for him to purify them.
The good news was this fusion seemed grand, and the fusion time wouldn't be short, so he could operate slowly.
One minute later, Xu Lang stopped operating.
Screw it!
The more he operated, the messier it got. Might as well let it do its own thing!
Several minutes later, a burst of golden radiance exploded forth, and a long blade materialized ahead.
The blade's body had a pure black metallic texture. Gazing upon it felt like being devoured by its lightless, wave-less surface. Blood-colored energy flowed along the sharp edge line, like a throbbing blood tide on a pale crescent moon. The hilt was wrapped in dark leather, and the pommel ended with a star-and-moon tassel, incredibly ornate.
And what evoked a deep sense of awe was that this blade possessed a terrifying aura of its own. It felt like reaching out to touch it would result in being slain, and a single glance would bring a burning sensation!

[Sharpness: 500]
[Durability: 3600/3600]
[Effect 1 (Soul Tomb): Part of the soul of any slain being is drawn into the blade, transformed into a ghost, perpetually repairing and tempering the long blade day and night, increasing all attributes. Current ghost count: 0]
[Effect 2 (Soul Release): Releasing ghosts increases the wielder's attributes. Effect depends on ghost count]
[Effect 3 (Weapon Lord): Penetration against weapons and armor increased by 50%]
[Effect 4 (Purgatory Demon Weapon): The blade carries a terrifying aura that intimidates enemies. Enemies with a spirit attribute below 100 points will experience the illusion of being slain themselves. The worse the enemy's condition, the stronger the effect, and it cannot be completely negated]

[Effect 6 (Soul Suppression·Regicide): When attacking an enemy in poor condition, extremely high chance to trigger "Limb Severing" effect]

[Effect 8 (Soul Suppression·March): The weapon is in perfect sync with its bound wielder. Special properties are easier to release. Increases speed of blade skill activation and attack speed]
[Effect 9 (Soul Suppression·Purgatory): When attacking, drains enemy Vitality and burns enemy soul]
[Deconstruction yields: Extinction Dark Iron X32, Soul Suppression Stone X3, Slaughter Power X1]
[Description: The tendrils of life are severed here by me... Listen, to the ballad from Purgatory]
[Nightmare Eye·Soul Suppression·Purgatory March: An unfathomable Purgatory demon weapon capable of cleaving open a passage between the human world and Purgatory. Beware its life-draining behavior]
"A single blade, with nine effects... How is it even worthy of this!"
Xu Lang was speechless, his heart filled with immense shock.
If you're at full condition, the Slaughter effect awaits you. If your condition is poor, the Regicide effect awaits you. If your condition is truly hopeless, Shadow of Slaughter can send you off with a painless death.
The Bloodthirst effect of the Blood Pelican Demon Blade had evolved into Soul Tomb.
Before, when someone was killed, they'd at most turn into attributes.
But now, Soul Tomb directly imprisons their soul, forcing them to work forever and ever.
Which means this blade, as long as it has ghosts inside, will become incredibly terrifying after being left alone for a few years!!!
This is what you call truly limitless growth!
As for the information seen by Nightmare Eye... Well, Purgatory and all that certainly sounds impressive and makes one feel it's powerful even if not fully understood, but aren't we in the dorm building?
If the sky falls, the dorm building will hold it up.
"Initial lethality is ten thousand. My Bloodfiend Battle Armor only has seven thousand Durability... Although armor penetration depends on Sharpness, Purgatory March's Sharpness isn't low either. Five hundred is enough, and there's also the Weapon Lord effect!"
"Looking at it this way, I'm still high attack, low defense."
As this thought crossed Xu Lang's mind, he reached out and gripped the hilt. A sense of perfect connection immediately surfaced in his heart, as if this blade was an extension of his own limb.
[Bind Soul Suppression·Purgatory March? Bound weapons cannot be given to others. If not bound, Soul Suppression effects will not activate?]
"Huh? Binding... I think I heard Rainy Night Blade mention this. Top-tier equipment in the Dorm Survival Game has this step. Reason unknown."
Bound weapons cannot be placed in other players' backpacks even if obtained, and their effects will also fail unless the original owner is killed.
Many players maliciously speculate that the Dorm Survival Game intentionally does this to intensify infighting among players.
Xu Lang decisively bound it and casually swung the blade.
Whoosh~!
A cluster of blade energy burst forth, leaving an afterimage in the air.
"What's going on?!" Xu Lang was startled.
He hadn't intended to swing that fast. Why had his attack speed become so quick?
Immediately, he realized this was the March effect taking place.
This effect was much stronger than he had imagined!
To describe it, it was roughly like before, weapons were a piano. What to play required careful thought from him. But now, a Beethoven was sitting at the piano. The moment his fingers touched it, Beethoven would start playing!
March, truly living up to its name!
