The Superintendent’s pressure was very great, but Fang Xingjian was finally here, so he no longer had to be held responsible. While walking with great zeal, the Superintendent looked at Fang Xingjian and said, “Xingjian, you’re finally here. Come, come, come. Try the armor on. Let me have a look at how it actually looks like. It’s also my first time seeing a level 29 armor.”

Fang Xingjian walked up to the metal box, and under the Superintendent’s instructions, inserted his Knight medallion, which was hanging from his neck, into a hole of the metal box.

The entire metal box seemed to tremble slightly. Then at the next moment, as white smoke gushed out, the box was like a blooming flower. It opened up in all directions and revealed the set of armor inside.

The armor was a dark black color and included guards for his hands, arms, waist, upper thighs, knees, lower thighs, as well as other parts of the body. If one were to put it on completely, it would be a black armor which covered up the entire body.

It stood upright in the metal box, as if it were a living Knight. Although it did not seem to be anything special, it had a unique aura to it.

Therefore, under the Superintendent’s envious gaze, Fang Xingjian put on the pieces of the armor one by one.

At the start, Fang Xingjian had still been worried that the armor would be very heavy and thus make it impossible for him to use his specialty, the Single Sword World Subjugation. This specialty forbade him to be equipped with any armor over ten kilograms. Otherwise, Fang Xingjian would not be able to enjoy the speed increment from this specialty.

However, when he put it on, he realized that this level 29 Superior Divine Armor was light as a feather, and when he held it in his hand, it was like paper.

However, its sturdiness was not something to be undermined. Now that Fang Xingjian had completed the job transition to the Heavenly Sword Sovereign, the bones all over his body had been turned into sword bones. Each of his punches and kicks were like the slashing or piercing of a longsword. With a casual but strong tap, he would be able to slash through steel and penetrate steel armors.

However, when he tried applying strength to stroke across the surface of this armor, there was a strong metallic scratching sound, but no marks were left behind.

The Superintendent said enviously, “This armor is known as the Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor and was made from the skeletal remains of Sand Country’s national hero, Domirov. It took ten years to forge and is a true treasure that doesn’t come by easily.

“It’s material is light as a feather, yet firm as a rock. Even a level 29 Divine Weapon would not be able to break it easily.”

In the blink of an eye, Fang Xingjian had put on the complete set of black Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor. Then at the next moment, the Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor let out a slight tremor and turned into a layer of black liquid on Fang Xingjian’s body. It stuck onto the surface of his skin as though it was a layer of skin. Following this, the armor’s color continued to change, seeming to get gradually accustomed to Fang Xingjian’s body. In just a short moment, it changed into over ten different colors and eventually got closer and closer to the color of Fang Xingjian’s skin.

In the end, no traces of the armor could be seen at all.

Fang Xingjian moved his arms and legs, and could not feel that he was wearing an armor. This Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor was truly amazing.

The Superintendent said enviously, “It’s said that after the Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor is put on, it’ll be like putting on a layer of skin, and usually, one won’t be able to sense its existence. It will absorb sunlight, moonlight, magnetic forces, as well as heat. It’ll continue going through its metabolism process on the surface of the wearer’s body and help to nurse it. The armor will even gradually increase the physical constitution of the wearer.

“In the future, the wearer will never sweat. They will feel warm in winter and cool in summer, and there will not even be a trace of dust on the their body.

“Although I heard of this a long time ago, I thought that these were merely exaggerations. To think that they were actually true…”

The Superintendent stared at Fang Xingjian’s skin and mumbled, “It has already merged onto you skin. Now, the surface of your skin already has the defensive powers of a level 29 Divine Weapon.

“And if you were to keep on wearing this in the long term… With the Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor nursing your body and increasing your body’s physical qualities, you’ll still grow increasingly strong and get closer to having the qualities of a level 29 Conferred Knight even if you don’t train your body.”

Fang Xingjian tried to clench his fist and felt that this layer of skin was like a living thing. Its connection with his body was growing increasingly stronger; it was supporting his body’s metabolism, transmitting of nutrients, and strengthening his physical qualities.
