Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

"So high?" Vincent muttered after seeing the abnormal attribute points of the necklace.

The Mind Attack Resistance was actually 320 points!

For a Unique-Grade Item, it was too high and it should be Legendary Grade +8 or even +10 to reach this number.

However, the item isn't only zero enhancements it also didn't receive any ascensions…

Perhaps, the only reason it was graded as Unique was that it doesn't have any item skills and it has low durability.

After all, he had seen a Unique-Grade item with active skill. However, this necklace doesn't even have one…

As he carefully read the description, he can only think that it was related to the Unknown Mystical Ink that was used to write the ancient word or character for Tranquility.

Vincent looked at his surroundings before shifting his gaze to Millie. As he confirmed that the enemies weren't in range yet, he turned back his gaze at the necklace in his hands.

After realizing that he has some time, he immediately started his enhancement and ascension… Of course, since he already has Spirit Stones, he decided to use them to get a better result.

After spending over a hundred Pseudo-Celestial Energy, he finally got what he wanted. Furthermore, his successful ascension even added five more attributes and two passive skills!

Skill Mastery ( Passive ): Attacks performed using Martial Arts will have 10% more damage. ]

Vincent smiled after reading the skill effects.

This necklace suits martial artists but of course, he would still wear it.

He removed his current necklace that creates an automatic mana shield for him and wore the Wooden Necklace.

Although the automatic mana shield helps him in an ambush or sneak attacks, it wasn't as great as his Sentient Source Cube which could be auto-equipped…

Since it has sentience, it'll know if Vincent is in danger and would immediately cover for him. It is certainly better than the Mana Shield.

As for wearing two necklaces at once, that wouldn't be possible since it will create dissonance and none of the two will work.

Unfortunately, he can only wear 18 magic items on his body.

One headgear, one weapon in each hand, one necklace, three body equipment, one arm equipment in each hand, two rings in each hand, one lower body equipment, and two more for his feet. That was a total of fifteen and as for the remaining two slots, they were his carry-on magic items like charms, amulets, and talismans that can be kept in his pocket.

If he exceeded the number of his carry-on items, he would notice that it will become harder to use any of his Magic Items. But it doesn't mean that he can no longer carry magic items while wearing all of these… He can still carry them but he can't wear them or Magic Dissonance will be triggered if he tries to activate them and the items will become useless. There is even a chance that the items will be destroyed.

Of course, this number limit is only for him and it differs from other Mana Practitioners… The number of Magic Items in their body seems to depend on how they completed their Mana Baptism and obtained the Mana Body.

As for earrings, he hadn't tried them yet but it seems possible since he found earring magic tools…

Vincent smiled as he checked his battle gear.

His headgear can be a circlet, monocle, mask, hat, or others but he wasn't wearing anything for that at the moment so he only has 17 magic items worn.

His weapons right now were his [ Black Pistol +10 ] and his [ Astral Night Dagger +10 ].

As for his body equipment, they were his [ Elegant Silk Shirt +10 ], [ Sentient Source Cube

+10 ] and his [ Nightbane Robe +10 ] to top it off.

His arm equipment can be a shoulder guard, bracer, gauntlet, or gloves… However, he decided to wear [ Left Silver Dusk Glove +10 ] and [ Right Silver Dusk Glove +10 ]… They were items he crafted to boost his Tier 1 Mana/Energy Gloves ability. It allows him to control his Pseudo-Celestial Energy smoothly, especially during magic crafting.

As for his four rings, one of them is his [ Interspatial Ring + 8 ] which is on his right index finger. There's also his favorite [ Brilliant Zeal Ring + 10 ] on his right middle finger.

For his left hand, he's wearing the [ Prudence Ring + 10 ] and [ Luminescence Ring + 8 ]. He was previously wearing his Sagewood Ring but decided to change it with the Luminescence Ring since the forest is getting really dark at the moment… With this ring in his hand, it can be very convenient if they needed light.

"This feels great…" Vincent muttered with satisfaction.

After feeling the subtle change in his own aura, Vincent couldn't help but smile as he recalled the effects of the necklace. It has 130 Charm Attribute points and Concentration Attribute with 80 points.

These two were the attributes that make some "visible" changes so he was able to easily tell that his necklace is working. The 80 Concentration Attribute points allow him to add 20 meters to his Magic Zone or casting range, which is an incredible feeling.

As for his charm, there was a subtle change in his Soul's Aura which he can easily tell as a Soul Cultivator.

Suddenly, Vincent heard Millie whisper as their wait is finally over.

"Vincent, they're coming… There's a total of nine people… One of them has very strong Mana Fluctuations. It must be the Apostle."

'Phoebe…' Vincent said in his mind as he carefully spread out his Pseudo-Celestial Energy.
