The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse Chapter 370 How to Open the Pentaface Bead

Klaus received the skill called [Info] from the senior, which was imdiately ingrained in his brain. He thanked him and then went about exploring the other things that had changed or appeared inside his soul sea.

The first was the Sword, his soul weapon. After using it to kill the Gatekeeper, so of the runes entered it. Now, staring at it, Klaus could tell it had beco much more powerful than before. He didn't know how strong it had beco, but he could tell.

For so reason, he decided to use the Info Skill on it. To his shock, it worked.

[Na: Celestial Requiem]

[Type: Soul Weapon]

[Grade: Spiritual]

[Abilities:]

- Superimposition: All attacks unleashed from the sword will have a 200% increase in damage output.

- Unbreakable: As long as the owner of the sword is alive, the sword will never break or get damaged.

- Life Switch: When a powerful soul attack that can kill is dealt to the owner of the sword, 70% of it will be absorbed by the sword.

"This is aweso... The sword is even better than I thought." Klaus smiled, reading the abilities of the sword. He had already used the Superimposition ability of the sword, but even then, he didn't know just how much the sword had amplified his skill.

But now, reading that it's 200%, he couldn't stop himself from feeling a little happy. After all, he had suffered greatly during his rise to the level he was at now.

"As for the third ability, as long as the second one is active, the sword would never get damaged." Klaus smiled, admiring the mischief of the sword.

If a soul attack was aid at him—one that could kill—his sword would absorb 70%, saving him from death. But while 70% might be enough to destroy the sword, because he wouldn't die from the remaining 30%, the sword wouldn't be damaged.

As long as sothing didn't kill him, the sword wouldn't be damaged, not even in the slightest.

"This sword is aweso," Klaus said with an excited smile.

[You should feed it more. If you don't understand how to do that, just drop your blood on it, and it will imprint the cultivation technique into your mind. But do that when you're out of your soul sea since you can get hurt in here,] the senior said.

Later, Klaus went to the Seal of Slaughter, now much larger and solid. The aura around it had also beco much more powerful.

"Just by staring at it, I can sense my Slaughter Aura growing," Klaus said with a smile.

[Your soul has beco several tis stronger now, brat, not to ntion your crazy ntal strength. So naturally, your comprehension abilities have also beco very powerful.]

"But with so many things I need to do, I feel like I won't have any free ti again to have so fun," Klaus said. He indeed had a lot to accomplish.

So even though his comprehension speed had increased, he would still have to dedicate ti to it. And from the looks of things, forming nine cores, learning about sword intent, and comprehending the Aura of Slaughter ant that his days of being free-spirited were over.

[You indeed don't have much free ti. If you sohow manage to form a soul body, then your soul body can comprehend the Aura of Slaughter inside your soul sea while you take care of other things.

Of course, I have a thod to help you create a clone, but that clone won't be able to access your soul-level abilities. Also, the mont you create a clone, a part of your soul and ntal strength will be dedicated to it.

In so ways, it's beneficial, but in other situations, it can be disadvantageous,] the senior's words were like a wake-up call to Klaus.

"I don't know why or how, but I think my Nine Reincarnation Divine Body wouldn't be happy about forming clones. So, I guess I'll just focus more on cultivation and see where this mysterious physique will take ," Klaus said to the senior.

Although he didn't know why he felt that way, a part of him didn't want clones. If his physique was as mysterious as it seed, then he would see results soon.

[Okay. Just focus more on the Aura of Slaughter and forming your cores. The longer you spend with the Seal of Slaughter, the stronger it grows,] the senior advised.

Klaus proceeded to observe the seal for a few more minutes before moving toward the Pentaface Bead, now called the Demon Bead.

"It seems to have undergone a crazy upgrade. I feel more connected to it," Klaus muttered, looking at the bead. He was careful to maintain so distance since he didn't want a repeat of what happened last ti.

However, the more he observed the bead, the closer he wanted to get. Finally, he gave up resisting and approached it. He observed it up close for a few monts, and then as if compelled, he placed his palm on it.

The mont he did, the bead vibrated, releasing a dense golden energy that imdiately filled the 2 km around them. Klaus's senses were overwheld for a few monts before he regained his composure.

"That was weird," Klaus said, watching the bead. A while later, he felt a new wave of information pour into his mind, making him dizzy for a few seconds.

It felt as if his brain had been pumped full of forbidden knowledge. However, Klaus didn't complain; instead, he took a few minutes to calm his mind before...He decided to get into what had happened to his brain.

"What the hell," Klaus muttered as he accessed the information, seeing sothing he never expected to find, at least not at this early stage.

He had discovered a way to open the Pentaface Bead. When he first t Number Three, he was told he was weak and hadn't even opened the bead yet. Klaus, of course, thought about it for a while and then decided to forget about it.

The last ti he got curious about the bead, he nearly died. So, he had placed the idea of opening it at the back of his mind.

Now, however, a way to open it had appeared, and Klaus could hardly believe it. He knew it wouldn't be that simple, so he reviewed the information. As he suspected, the thod was as challenging as he had expected.

"I first have to unlock all five faces before the bead can be opened," Klaus muttered with a frown. He wondered whether Number Three had ever co into contact with this bead and, if so, whether he had ever unlocked all five.

"Wait a minute, there's more information," Klaus said as he began accessing the remaining information he had received from the bead. After a few more minutes, his eyes widened, a smile gracing his lips.

"I have unlocked the third face and a new skill. How wonderful," Klaus said with an excited expression. He now has access to three out of the five faces.

[Congratulations, brat,] the senior congratulated him. Klaus's smile grew as he gazed at the third face of the Bead—the Face of Starvation.
