How powerful can an object beco when it has witnessed a First Kill, and played a significant role in the First Kill of a Supre Demon?
In Huan Zhen’s explanation, apart from so special changes to this Compass, the material itself was also enhanced. While it’s still made from the original materials, it’s as if the item has been upgraded with an additional 99999 durability.
It’s not indestructible, but destroying it would require a significant cost.
With this item, Supre Demons will have "nowhere to hide," and its basic functions have been greatly strengthened. For example, its tracking and location abilities, as well as an increase in luck, akin to a boost in lucky value for dealing with Supre Demons.
Even without a Diviner’s manipulation, it’s still useful for pointing in a general direction, sowhat like the Compass in Pirates of the Caribbean that belonged to Captain Jack, except this one can also manage God-slaying.
The stronger the Heaven’s Mandate of the person using this item, the better the effect. In other words, if this item falls into the hands of the main character of the era, it will shine with even more dazzling brilliance. If it lands in the hands of obvious early-stage supporting characters and minor antagonists, it’s basically used to gift treasures to the protagonist.
Even if held in their hands, it won’t make them the current protagonist, not even comparable to those mid-to-late-stage antagonists.
Four Diviners analyzed this Compass quite thoroughly.
"So with this, we can try to find the treasure of the Supre Demon, right?" Zheng Yichen asked.
"Ah." Huan Zhen nodded slightly, "It can search, but at most it provides a general direction."
It points in a direction, but what’s on the road is not guaranteed by the Compass. Yet even so, in terms of tracking, this device is more powerful than most Diviners. More importantly, it has very low requirents for use.
Being one of the ritorious figures in the First Kill of the Supre Demon, this object is no longer a living creature. As a non-living thing, it cannot speak or have a destiny, preventing the Diviners from determining how much Heaven’s Mandate feedback it has received, but it’s presud to be no less than any of them.
Using this item to track and locate Supre Demons, they experience much less backlash, over ninety percent less. When they use this item to locate Supre Demons, their role is simply to make the broad direction indicated by the Compass more precise. If they’re not exerting much effort, how much backlash can there be?
Locking onto the weaknesses of a Supre Demon is similar. Carriers will feel a mystical guidance, and Diviners can mark it directly.
"The first one to eat a crab always profits the most," Yui Anhe said sowhat emotionally. The Diviners Yi Nan found were carefully selected; Wei Xue valued human heritage and was the most knowledgeable among them, which is why he was able to produce the ancient Ice Heart Mantra.
Huan Zhen was skilled in crafting; the Compass was made by him. Initially, when they located the Supre Demon, it was the main carrier for the location, while his role, Yui Anhe, was to mark the Supre Demon’s weaknesses and flaws.
He just never had the chance to play the role he was supposed to.
"Is that so?" Zheng Yichen brought out his fishing rod, "Can any of you see if there are any enhancents to this thing?"
"Ah... this thing..." Huan Zhen looked at the fishing rod in Zheng Yichen’s hand without touching it, nor wanting to, for a simple reason: the aura of death emanating from the item was too intense. In their battle with the Supre Demon, they witnessed how the weapon’s deathly power bound the Supre Demon’s soul.
A living person touching this weapon? They doubted whether Zheng Yichen, who could wield this weapon, was actually still living.
Huan Zhen scrutinized the fishing rod and said, "There should be enhancents, but I’m not an expert on weapons..."
His gaze then fell upon the cat spirit cloak worn by Zheng Yichen, his eyes suddenly glead: "This cloak, stained with the blood of the Supre Demon, has beco a Supre Demon Weapon; it has certainly received feedback from Heaven’s Mandate."
It was challenging to observe Zheng Yichen’s fishing rod, but the cat spirit cloak was different. After observing for a while, Huan Zhen continued, "Nevertheless, this item is not like the Compass; even with Heaven’s Mandate feedback, it won’t have as many functions. Yet certain inevitable changes have occurred, such as modifications specific to Supre Demons."
"When dealing with Supre Demons, there should be enhancents in protection, and the spirit inside should also gain additional powers for sensing and killing Supre Demons..." Huan Zhen spoke with uncertainty as he was making observations rather than direct contact knowledge.
All the items on Zheng Yichen were quite dangerous: the fishing rod imbued with powerful forces of death could be controlled at will in his hands, not killing the fish during fishing, but in others’ hands, it would be a different matter.
The cat spirit cloak was similar; the cat spirit inside was not so benevolent spirit or ordinary soul but a Vengeful Spirit, akin to an evil ghost. It simply appeared docile around Zheng Yichen, but it might not be the case with others.
Both pieces of equipnt could potentially cause trouble if handled improperly.
"These will show their worth in the fight against the Supre Demons," Huan Zhen said, then turned to Yi Nan, "There’s another very important matter at hand, regarding the curse on Your Excellency Chang Qing!"
"We’ve discussed it not long ago; the current Yi Nan can resolve so of the curse but cannot completely remove it."
