"Brother... are you reluctant to have your sister come and keep me company?"
In the void outside The End's main island, a massive mob farm had just been completed. Yang Tao stood on the platform beneath the Ender mob farm, holding his Blade · White Sheath.
Hearing the Ender Dragon's words, he said speechlessly, "Can you shut up? Otherwise, I'll design a special 'Dragon Player' for you."
The Ender Dragon landed from the sky, lay on the cobblestone, and extended a claw to her mouth, making a zipping motion, indicating she would shut up.
Yang Tao sighed and said, "When I have time, I'll bring you some books or a tablet to relieve your boredom. I feel like your symptoms are just from being idle in The End."
"That works... but if you were here with me, I wouldn't be bored."
Pulling out the Blade · White Sheath from his waist, Yang Tao no longer paid attention to the Ender Dragon, who was bored out of her mind. A large number of Enders had already fallen from the mob spawning room above.
Looking at the long, dark, pillar-like legs inside, Yang Tao swung the Blade · White Sheath in his hand, striking them.
The damage of the original white-grade Katana was extremely low; it required combos and high ratings to display terrifying damage.
Due to his skills, Yang Tao's attack speed was extremely fast, and his base attack power was also enhanced. The Blade · White Sheath transformed into countless afterimages in his hand.
Bang...
It only took a dozen seconds.
The white-grade Blade · White Sheath broke directly, leaving only a short section. At the same time, a radiant soul fragment shimmering with a strange light appeared in his backpack.
"The efficiency is decent..."
Without using any unorthodox methods, this was the fastest and most convenient way to farm radiant soul fragments.
First, he used an experience book to store his excess experience, then opened the repair interface of the nearby Anvil, placing the broken Blade · White Sheath and an iron ingot inside.
"One level? That's cheap!"
The repair cost of an un-enchanted Blade · White Sheath was indeed this cheap.
Accompanied by a sound of hammering, the broken Blade · White Sheath was fully restored, and its forging count increased by 1.
Forging count is a very important indicator for Katanas, as it can increase the Katana's rating and the maximum damage of attacks.
For example, if the Blade · White Sheath's A-SS attack rating damage is 7, after forging count +1, the damage will become 8.
There is no upper limit.
As long as you are willing to spend the time, you can completely increase the Blade · White Sheath's damage to a terrifying degree.
However, if the user's level is greater than or equal to the forging count, the forging bonus is fully activated, and the bonus amount is equal to the forging count.
If the user's level is less than the forging count, the forging bonus is partially activated, and the bonus amount is equal to the user's level.
Bang...
While speaking, the Blade · White Sheath in Yang Tao's hand broke again.
Repair... break... repair... break...
The number of radiant soul fragments in his backpack was constantly increasing, and the glory value and forging count of the Blade · White Sheath were also rapidly rising, though its durability seemed even more insufficient.
But for a weapon used to farm radiant soul fragments, it became even more useful this way.
Bang...
Yang Tao felt like throwing up.
After glancing at the radiant soul fragments in his backpack, Yang Tao stopped his monster-killing actions. The Blade · White Sheath, which originally looked like wood, now had a hint of blood-red on its blade.
This was the effect of 'Fierce Blade,' which appears when the kill count exceeds 1000. Fierce Blade changes the rating requirements for damage stages, which is very important.
The glory value was also increasing madly.
Glory value is also an important stat. The amount of glory value is related to the rating: Rating Level: D = 1, C = 2, B = 3, A = 4, S = 5, SS = 6, SSS = 7.
The formula for increasing glory value is: Monster dropped experience (1 + Rating Level × 0.1).
Glory value can be understood as the Katana's energy, which can be consumed to release SA, Phantom Sword, or craft radiant soul materials.
"No, I need to repair the Yamato first..."
The prerequisite for repairing the Yamato is that the Broken Yamato must have 1000 glory value, then it can be repaired at a crafting table for 8 radiant soul orbs.
There are two methods of repair: the first is to diligently kill 1000 monsters with the Broken Yamato, and the other is to use radiant soul fragments to charge it in an Anvil.
Each radiant soul fragment can charge 200 glory value.
It's actually quite cost-effective, much more reliable than hacking monsters with the Broken Yamato.
He threw the Broken Yamato into the Anvil, then spent 5 radiant soul fragments to charge the glory value to 1000.
"Radiant Soul Orb... that's really extravagant."
Radiant Soul Orbs need to be smelted from radiant soul ingots in a furnace, and radiant soul ingots require four radiant soul fragments plus one iron ingot to craft.
This calculates to 32 radiant soul fragments, which is simply a luxury among luxuries.
Looking at the freshly crafted and intact Yamato in his hand, Yang Tao felt like crying tears of joy. However, the current Yamato was still in a 'blank' state and needed various forms of cultivation.
For example, adding enchantments, increasing forging count and kill count, and various enhancement methods like demonization.
Yang Tao walked to the base of the Ender tower and swung the freshly crafted Yamato in his hand. Instantly, sword qi overflowed, and its attack effect was completely on a different level than the previous Blade · White Sheath.
However, the durability of Katanas remained a huge problem.
But...
"Energy value, repair for me!!"
He had to use his own cheats. What repair charms and durability enchantments were all inferior in the face of energy value.
Watching the constantly rising experience and kill counts, the smile on Yang Tao's face became increasingly unrestrained.
Half a day passed in a flash. Yang Tao gently caressed the blade of the Yamato · Yang, which had completely turned blood-red. His eyes held a gambler's madness. With a bite of his teeth, he knocked all the radiant soul fragments in his backpack into the Yamato.
Forging count +718
"It's done, hahaha, I've done it, Daoist priest!"
He lightly swung the Yamato at the Enders in the mob farm. A translucent, deep blue sphere, gradually fading from inside out, swallowed the Enders' figures.
At the edge of the "sphere..." there were also 3 to 4 bright blue sword auras constantly rotating.
The moment the Dimensional Slash appeared, those Enders were instantly killed by the Yamato's extremely high damage.
After Yang Tao sheathed the Yamato · Yang in his hand, the overwhelming killing aura immediately vanished, as if it had never existed.
"I remember the Wither can drop a Sange, and I can also craft a Koseki. It looks like I need to farm some Wither Bosses."
Sange and Koseki also have value. The main point is that these two blades are very beautiful; even if not used, keeping them for collection is excellent.
Additionally, killing Boss-level creatures and creatures with independent names can yield enchanted radiant soul fragments, and the Wither is the most suitable Boss, mainly because it's cheap and convenient to summon.
