Chapter Seventy: Epic Constitution! First Update

Author: Floating Tower of All Beings
On the surface, the Water of Life appears quite ordinary.
It is simply some relatively clear water, subtly tinged with a hint of green when observed closely, but this is merely an illusion created by the rich life energy it holds. The Water of Life possesses incredibly dense power; it is the best healing wonder in the Material Plane. However, to completely change a person’s constitution, a substantial quantity is required. The Water of Life has always been used by Treants to cultivate Ancient Tree Sages, as this rich life force can help accelerate the evolution of Treants into Arborists and Nature Guardians.
A row of data appeared before my eyes:
“Item Type: Water of Life【Fountain of Youth】
Item Level: Special Wonder
Item Description: The Water of Life has appeared in many special places across various planes. It is the essence nurtured by nature, a treasure produced between heaven and earth. In the Eastern World, it is also known as the 【Fountain of Youth】. Ascetics believe it can completely purify a person’s constitution and help them reach the realm of ‘Transcendence,’ making the Water of Life a priceless treasure in the Eastern World. Places where the Water of Life can be found in the entire Material Plane are extremely rare.
Usage Effects: Restores life, regrows severed limbs, heals fatal wounds, strengthens constitution, grants eternal youth, extends lifespan.
Usage Effect 1: 【Restores Life】, one milliliter of Water of Life can restore 10 points of life force; this effect is effective for the vast majority of living beings.
Usage Effect 2: 【Regrows Severed Limbs】, the Water of Life can achieve the effect of regrowing severed limbs, but sufficient quantity must be used.
Usage Effect 3: 【Heals Fatal Wounds】, the Water of Life can achieve the effect of healing fatal wounds, but sufficient quantity must be used.
Usage Effect 4: 【Strengthens Constitution】, drinking more than one liter of Water of Life can permanently increase constitution by 1 point. (Note: This effect must be triggered while at full health. This effect only triggers once.)
Usage Effect 5: 【Grants Eternal Youth】, the Water of Life can slow down the aging of any living species. Any living being that has consumed the Water of Life will significantly slow down their aging process.
Usage Effect 6: 【Extends Lifespan】, the Water of Life can prolong the lifespan of any living species. Any living being that has consumed the Water of Life will significantly increase their lifespan. (Note: This effect must be triggered while at full health.)”
………………
The Water of Life.
As an extremely rare special wonder, it has two triggered special effects, namely 【Strengthens Constitution】 and 【Extends Lifespan】.
However, these two triggered special effects also have prerequisites, which is that the user must be in a fully restored state. If not at full health, the Water of Life’s power will only be used for healing injuries and will not trigger the effects of 【Strengthens Constitution】 and 【Extends Lifespan】. Among them, the quantity required for strengthening constitution is the highest; it is very difficult to enhance any attribute point. In terms of effects, the leaf Soren once obtained is even rarer.
Soren is currently at full health, so he just needs to drink one liter of the Water of Life.
He has obtained about ten liters, which, if used entirely to enhance constitution, would be enough to permanently increase the constitution of ten people by one point, and the effects of 【Grants Eternal Youth】 and 【Extends Lifespan】 would trigger simultaneously.
The taste is faintly sweet.
Soren carefully drank just the right amount and soon saw a row of data prompts appear, while a rich life energy surged into his limbs.
“Using special wonder 【Water of Life】!”
“Triggering effect 【Strengthens Constitution】! …Permanent increase of 1 point in constitution! …Triggering effect 【Grants Eternal Youth】! …One’s appearance will no longer continue to age! …Triggering effect 【Extends Lifespan】! …One’s lifespan will be greatly increased! …”
“Constitution reaches 25 points! …”
“You have automatically mastered the legendary ability 【Epic Constitution】! …”
“You possess the basic specialty 【Strong】! …You have obtained partial information on the legendary specialty 【Epic Strong】! …”
“You possess the legendary specialty 【Epic Constitution】! …You have obtained partial information on the legendary specialty 【Damage Reduction】! …”
“Abilities enhanced! …”
“Specialty Regeneration【Level 2】 upgraded to Regeneration【Level 3】! …”
………………
Finally, the third attribute has reached 25 points.
All along, Soren’s attributes have greatly surpassed others, but this advantage did not provide much leverage in the face of divine avatars in the form of Saints, as many divine avatars have an average attribute above 20 points, with some possessing Strong Divine Power averaging all attributes above 25 points. The vitality of the Saint form is quite resilient. Soren’s life force is currently 385 points; for mortals and other legends, this is a terrifying vitality, but for divine avatars in the form of Saints, it is merely average.
Some warrior-type deities may possess vitality exceeding a terrifying thousand points.
Normally, Soren’s life force must exceed that of an adult giant dragon to gain a certain advantage against other divine entities.
“Epic Constitution【Legendary Specialty】: Your constitution has far surpassed the boundaries of humanity. When receiving any damage, you gain an additional 1 point of damage reduction. Your Fortitude saving throws permanently gain a +3 bonus, while also adding an extra 10 hit points. When making any checks related to constitution, you gain an additional 1 point of epic bonus.”
Information of the two legendary specialties.
After raising his constitution to 25 points, Soren’s accumulated Fortitude saving throw has surpassed that of most adult giant dragons. The enhancement of his regeneration ability is not particularly beneficial to him now; due to his Saint form, he can utilize divine power to cast recovery divine techniques, which can similarly heal his wounds. However, the enhancement of basic passive abilities still has some value.
Epic Strong.
This is an important survival specialty; a single enhancement can add an extra 30 hit points. Soren currently does not have much insight into it, but perhaps in the future he could obtain it directly through specialty points.
Unfortunately, the requirements for divine-level entities to conduct purification ceremonies for constitution are extremely high!
Otherwise, if Soren were to conduct a divine-level purification ceremony, he could have his life force recalculated according to his current attribute points, resulting in a tremendous increase in survival capabilities.
Throughout his journey, Soren’s life force gained was relatively low during the enhancement of his profession level; the purpose of the ritual is to allow him to recalculate his life force based on his current constitution, unleashing the potential of his physical body to the maximum extent.
If he could find the materials to hold a bloodline purification ritual,
Then Soren, a level 7 Thief / level 10 Shadow / level 10 Wizard / level 1 Archmage, would undergo a recalculation of life force based on a 25-point constitution bonus, as well as the base life added by the profession, maximizing the purification of his physical bloodline abilities.
Such a ritual is quite difficult.
So far, Soren has only accidentally conducted it once, using the blood of a giant dragon.
………………
Objective achieved successfully.
Soren has additionally acquired three specialty abilities: the legendary specialty 【Epic Constitution】, the special specialty 【Grants Eternal Youth】, and 【Extends Lifespan】.
These two specialties appear as part of passive specialties.
Unfortunately.
Such abilities have no use for Soren, who is already a deity; he is nearly immortal, so these two abilities are more valuable for mortals.
He carefully stored the Water of Life.
After permanently increasing his constitution by one point, its usefulness to him diminished greatly, but for others, it remains invaluable.
First of all.
Vivian would definitely benefit from it, but he now wonders if she could drink it; he is concerned she might stop growing after consuming it.
Then there’s Gloria; the Northern Witch’s divination and prophecy abilities most harm her lifespan. Theoretically, she is the one who needs this the most. As one of his closest females, Soren is certainly inclined to reserve enough for her. Next, there’s the portion set aside for the Fallen Witch and Princess Anna, as well as a portion that may be needed to curry favor with the Long Princess and the Eye of the North.
Calculating all of this, Soren surprisingly found it is not enough.
Because it will be hard to obtain more of this, and the inventory across the entire Material Plane is quite limited. To scoop it up again, he can only wait for the outbreak of the Saint’s Cataclysm.
