**[Defeated a Level 3 Bobcat, gained an additional 50% Overlevel Bonus, Experience +4.5 points.]**
...
While Su Mubai used [Cataclysm] to promote his equipment and skills, the ten small skeletons continued their actions without pause.
Five formed a team, continuously hunting the bobcats blocking their path.
Using [Cataclysm] didn't require stopping, and after increasing his Agility to 6 points, Su Mubai's Movement Speed finally returned to normal.
The skeleton squad cleared the monsters as they advanced further.
By continuously using [Cataclysm], Su Mubai directly disabled the skill effects.
Otherwise, when enhancing high-level skills later, the pillar of light shooting into the sky would be too conspicuous.
**[You have obtained the Normal equipment "Bone Staff."]**
**[You have obtained the Normal equipment "Linen Robe."]**
In the Game of Myriad Worlds, equipment is divided into ten grades: Inferior, Normal, Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Dark Gold, Epic, Legendary, and Mythic.
The equipment players start with is the most trashy Inferior grade, merely decorative.
Its only use is to prevent exposure and to cast skills.
After all, many skills can't be used without a weapon.
Now that the two pieces of equipment have been upgraded to Normal grade, they finally have a panel.
However, it doesn't make much difference, merely increasing Su Mubai's Spell Power and Physical Defense by a few points.
The real enhancement to his strength comes from skill promotion!
**[Your F-grade skill "Summon Skeleton" has successfully been promoted to E-grade skill "Summon Skeleton."]**
> **[Summon Skeleton]: (E) Level 1, Active Skill.**
>
>
>
> Summon a skeleton to fight for you.
>
>
>
> Casting time: 3 seconds, Cooldown: 30 seconds, Mana Cost: 40 points.
>
>
>
> (Skeleton panel benefits from player's Spirit attribute bonus.)
This time, the ten small skeletons in battle did not directly gain an upgrade.
"It seems that after skill promotion, they need to be summoned again."
Su Mubai didn't rush to summon but continued using [Cataclysm] to promote the remaining skills.
**[Your F-grade skill "Burning" has successfully been promoted to E-grade skill "Burning."]**
The name of Burning didn't change, but the skill damage increased from 150% to 200%, and the mana cost changed to 20 points.
"Next up is the main event."

A glint flashed in Su Mubai's eyes as he selected the next skill.
**[Your A-grade skill "Life Link" has successfully been promoted to S-grade skill "Life Share."]**
> **[Life Share]: (S) Passive Skill, No Level.**
>
>
>
> Skill Effect:

>
> You unilaterally share HP with all your summoned undead creatures.
"Amazing!"
Seeing the simple description of Life Share, Su Mubai couldn't help but exclaim.
Not only did the active skill become passive, but the sharing target also became all summoned creatures!
Promoting from A-grade to S-grade is practically a qualitative change.
Such a skill is equivalent to gaining an S-grade Talent, which is virtually unattainable in the early stages of the game.
But Su Mubai has the cheat.
Combined with the class Cataclysm trait and the skill [Summon Amplification], the value of [Life Share] on him far surpasses the usual player's S-grade Talent.
After all, players who awaken such Talents can't summon so many creatures.
Looking at the new HP bar below his own, the stark contrast between the number exceeding 8000 and the 1/1 HP was striking.
At this moment, even Su Mubai felt a bit monstrous.
Permanent 1 HP?
So what?
My secondary HP bar is nearly 9000!
Is this still a magic class?
Even a tank with an S-grade Talent would cry and report him for cheating.
Su Mubai's lips curled into a smile as his gaze fell on the last skill.

The skill effects of Death Summons have doubled.
Not to mention, Su Mubai is one step closer to summoning the Plague Legion.
> **[Summon Space: 10/20]**
Unfortunately, Summon Space is just an attribute, not a tangible item, so it can't be used for free with [Cataclysm].
With a thought, Su Mubai took out the [Book of Death] from his backpack.
"Finally, it's time to promote this thing."
As his level increased to 1, the attributes of the Book of Death also unlocked.
However, it only unlocked a basic attribute of +10 Spell Power.
It seemed unworthy of the exclusive equipment's prestige.
Su Mubai directly equipped the [Book of Death] in the off-hand slot, holding a Bone Staff in one hand and the ancient book exuding a deathly aura in the other, finally looking somewhat like a Necromancer.
**[Cataclysm]**
**[Target: Book of Death]**
This time, the activation of [Cataclysm] took noticeably longer than before.
Even though the effects were disabled, Su Mubai still felt a heart-palpitating aura.
Just when he thought the promotion had failed, the cold system prompt finally sounded in his ear.
**[Your Exclusive Item "Book of Death" has successfully been promoted to "Death Codex."]**

"No way, it only increased Spell Power by five points?"
Su Mubai frowned, carefully examining the attributes of the [Death Codex] and finally noticed a single-word difference in the description.
It was originally a book of laws, now it has become a book of rules!
It seems the true power of the [Death Codex] will only be revealed as his level increases.
Looking at the [Death Codex], which had transformed from an off-hand item to a special item.
With a thought, the [Death Codex] glowed faintly, transforming into an inscription imprinted on the back of his left hand.
He was pleasantly surprised to find that the off-hand slot in the equipment panel was miraculously empty.
Yet the Spell Power increase from the [Death Codex] remained!
"Just being able to equip an additional off-hand item makes this promotion worth it."
With an unexpected gain, Su Mubai was in high spirits.
After using [Cataclysm] to gain free benefits in all aspects, his strength had become worlds apart from before.
"Now, the leveling officially begins."
Adding the only Skill Point to Summon Skeleton, Su Mubai waved his Bone Staff.
With both [Death Summons] and the class Cataclysm trait in effect, his summoning was almost instantaneous.
A slightly larger pale gray vortex appeared, and two skeleton soldiers emerged from it.
After the skill promotion, the summoned skeletons were noticeably stronger, their bones no longer so pale but with a slight sheen.
The cracks on their bodies were fewer, and the weapons in their hands were no longer chipped.
They finally looked somewhat imposing.
