——————————

Holding this longsword in his hand, Gu Xi carefully tested it twice.

He discovered that this longsword could indeed transform between a longsword and a Civilization Staff.

When it becomes a longsword, the blade appears extremely smooth, with a total length of one meter and three centimeters, without a crossguard or hilt, resembling a cold, gleaming iron rod.

Transforming into the Civilization Staff happens when the blade retracts and appears as a short staff composed of three intertwined roots.

The only thing that does not change is the attributes of the orange equipment; whether in longsword form or Civilization Staff form, the attributes of this orange equipment remain the same.

At the same time, Gu Xi also understood why Gong Lingyu chose such an orange equipment for him. It turns out his orange equipment has always focused on support, with no truly usable weapon.

[Secret Realm Sword Staff (Orange, Main Hand Weapon, Unowned)]

[After equipping: Player’s soldiers’ attack +10, all Undead Element spells and skill levels +3.]

[Equipment Requirements: Agility 20, Intelligence 20]

[Special 1: King’s Sword, temporarily borrow subordinate’s combat power for battle (can simultaneously borrow combat power from three Contracted Undead, ten Heroes, or a hundred Soldiers

Contracted Undead’s combat power can be borrowed 100%, Heroes can borrow up to 70% depending on circumstances, Soldiers can borrow up to half depending on circumstances)]

[Special 2: Enchanted Sword, an elemental attribute can be added to the longsword, when this sword appears on the battlefield, all soldiers’ weapons within five kilometers will resonate with the Enchanted Sword, obtaining the same enchanted attribute as the Enchanted Sword.]

[Special 3: Evil Slash, in combat, can activate all negative effects of the enemy’s purple armor and enhance the damage from the purple armor’s negative effects.]

[Special 4: Spirit Body, can switch between spirit and physical state at any time, can freely enter and exit the Netherworld or Underworld during spirit state.]

[Explanation 1: For ordinary people, what is a Secret Realm? A place one cannot enter or exit is called a Secret Realm; for this sword staff, the Secret Realm is between life and death.]

[Explanation 2: Enter the state of neither living nor dead, between life and death, and only then wielding this sword allows the equipment to recognize the owner. Once recognized, unless voluntarily relinquished, this equipment cannot be taken by others.]

Looking at the description of this Secret Realm Sword Staff, Gu Xi couldn’t help but furrow his brows.

He was somewhat uncertain why this sword staff was named Secret Realm.

He always had a feeling the weapon’s name wasn’t chosen randomly.

The term Secret Realm must be the true essence of this sword staff.

Gu Xi thought for a moment and then closed his eyes directly.

At this moment, a kind of death qi swiftly appeared on Gu Xi’s body.

This was Gu Xi recalling the situation when he ascended to Level 10, reversing from Yellow Springs Road to enter the real world.

Gu Xi had contact with the state between life and death only once.

Upon seeing Gu Xi’s actions, Gong Lingyu and her disciples all turned their gaze towards Gu Xi.

Those disciples’ eyes revealed a kind of affirming smile.

This was another test by Gong Lingyu for her disciples.

Previously, when they acquired orange equipment, they also encountered similar situations.

Although they all eventually passed the test, they suffered minor losses to some extent.

Now, they wanted to see how much their junior brother would suffer in this aspect.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xi had previously obtained several pieces of orange equipment and had a very clear understanding of recognizing ownership of orange equipment.

To make the orange equipment recognize ownership, one must strictly follow the meaning in the instructions and not act according to one’s assumptions.

After entering this state, Gu Xi slowly raised the longsword and forcefully thrust it forward, transforming the longsword into a Civilization Staff, which then began to coil around Gu Xi’s arm.

Finally, after leaving a mark on Gu Xi’s right arm, it reverted to its Civilization Staff form.

Opening his eyes again, Gu Xi understood he had mastered this orange equipment.

At the same time, he roughly grasped the situation of this orange equipment.

Compared to the few orange pieces Gu Xi previously acquired, this one is evidently for combat purposes.

The path it takes differs from the previous orange equipment.

The first skill, King’s Sword, is said to borrow the combat power of subordinate Undead, actually enhancing the user’s close combat ability through resonance between the longsword and subordinates.

Before, only focusing on Civilization, Gu Xi might not have felt much, but now with the weapon in his hand, Gu Xi realized he was thinking too simply.

Nothing is simple about orange equipment.

He can borrow the combat power of subordinate Undead, which refers not to level or attributes, but to combat style and combat skills, which can all be temporarily borrowed.

For example, Gu Xi can directly borrow Luna’s combat power.

Thus, Gu Xi can temporarily use all mirror-related mirror abilities.

Although he cannot obtain the support of Luna’s purple and orange equipment, some basic and strange mirror abilities, like walking in the mirror and mirror image teleportation, he can effortlessly perform.

Most importantly, he can simultaneously borrow the combat power of three Contracted Undead or ten Heroes.

This means when fighting, Gu Xi can utilize a considerable amount of combat skills.

Of course, there are matters related to combat power in this, but a relatively complex calculation formula will be involved.

Gu Xi hasn’t started fighting yet, so it’s temporarily uncertain how strong his obtained combat power would be; but one thing is for sure, if Gu Xi personally takes action now, he definitely won’t be as lacking in close combat ability as before.

As for the Enchanted Sword skill, this is considered a fixed range magic.

As long as the Secret Realm Sword Staff contains any magical effect, all Undead Corps weapons within five kilometers of Gu Xi will have the same enchantment.

Even the Bone Dragon’s teeth will bear the enchantment effect.

It can be said this time the entire army is equipped.

Gu Xi genuinely believes such an effect cannot be achieved by purple equipment.

Most orange equipment probably cannot reach this level, either.

Who knows where Gong Lingyu found this Secret Realm Sword Staff with such extensive weapon attribute enhancement.

The Evil Slash and Spirit Body following are not as obvious in enhancement.

Evil Slash is a skill used against enemy purple armor, different from the auxiliary orange equipment that can reduce purple armor’s negative effects, Evil Slash directly activates all negative effects of the opponent’s purple armor and may even double the effect.

As for the Spirit Body ability, Gu Xi tested it twice; at most, it can transform Gu Xi into a Ghost state, but Gu Xi can clearly feel this ability should be key to the Secret Realm Sword Staff.

But where the key lies, Gu Xi still cannot determine.
