Zhang Nu immediately absorbed the three Evil God Eyes.

After Zhang Nu absorbed the three Evil God Eyes, he could clearly feel his strength soaring significantly.
If, before this, Zhang Nu, relying solely on his innate abilities without the Evil God talents, was already a standout among Level 6 legendary units, then at this moment, the resonance and amplification of the seven Evil God Eyes had pushed his HP, MP, and all stats to a higher level. In terms of pure innate talent and stats alone, Zhang Nu was now one of the top legendary-class units. His combat power was beyond the imagination of others.
Furthermore, with the addition of the Evil God power and talents, Zhang Nu was not just invincible at his level; he could even challenge higher-level legendary beings. It was important to note that after reaching Level 6, each subsequent level became extremely difficult to achieve. The higher the level, the less likely it was to challenge and surpass units of the same rank. However, Zhang Nu's current strength was unquestionably comparable to that of a Level 7 legendary unit. The progress and the sheer power he had gained were astonishing and almost unbelievable.
Zhang Nu had one more Evil God fragment, the "Abyssal Scales" dropped by Amit. After some thought, he decided to use it.
[Assimilation of Evil God fragment successful!]
[You've gained a new talent: Abyssal Scales!]
[Evil God power +50%, maximum HP +4000, maximum MP +4000, all stats +200!]
Compared to the Evil God Eyes, the benefits from absorbing this Evil God fragment was noticeably lower. This was because it was an independent Evil God fragment and could not resonate with the other fragments within his body. Only fragments of the same origin could resonate and amplify each other. The more same-origin Evil God fragments were absorbed, the greater the amplification effect would be, showing a step-like growth.
Although this Evil God fragment's benefits were not particularly impressive, it still increased his Evil God power and granted a new talent. Zhang Nu already possessed strong defense and damage absorption abilities. With the addition of the Abyssal Scales, his ability to absorb attacks became even more formidable.
Even with just these gains, this operation was already very successful. The Eight-Eyed Evil God had a total of eight fragments, and Zhang Nu had now collected seven of them. This meant he was only one fragment away. Once he found the last fragment, Zhang Nu would fully activate the power of the Eight-Eyed Evil God, awakening the Godhood within himself and acquiring the power and divinity of a deity.
However, Zhang Nu was not in a hurry. With seven Evil God Eyes already in his possession, finding the last one would not be difficult. The resonance between the Evil God fragments gave him confidence that he could locate it no matter where it was hidden.
Aside from the Evil God fragments, the most valuable loot this time was the slain Hero rewards. Amit was a legendary Hero, so among his dropped items was a legendary crystal. The value of this crystal was immeasurable. While it might not be useful for Zhang Nu, it held tremendous value for many others. For most people, this crystal was more valuable than four Evil God fragments.
The legendary crystal could enhance potential and talent. The target for using a legendary crystal needed to have mythic-class qualifications, and this crystal's function was to elevate those qualifications to the legendary-class. Although the level remained the same, the essence underwent a transformation and evolution.
But more than the legendary crystal, what truly interested Zhang Nu was the Hero leaderboard reward chest.
[You've opened the Hero treasure chest. You've gained "Primeval Behemoth Crystal" x1, "Level 7 Soul" x200, "Thirteen Elemental Gems" x150,000 each!]
As expected, the Hero reward chest contained the Hero crystal, souls, and gemstones. The scale of the rewards was astonishing, even more generous than the chest dropped by the Prophet of Doom.
Zhang Nu used the Hero crystal.
[You have absorbed the "Primeval Behemoth Crystal": HP +20,000, MP +10,000, Strength +3000, Agility +1500, Constitution +3000, Will +1000. You have gained the SS-rank skill: Primeval Behemoth Form!]
A surge of immense power enveloped Zhang Nu, further enhancing his already overwhelming stats. The new ability he acquired was the "Behemoth Form"! This was an SS-rank transformation skill, though it was not strictly a transformation skill. Zhang Nu could transform into a behemoth, gaining all the innate abilities of a Primeval Behemoth.
If true dragons were the rulers of the sky, then behemoths were the rulers of the land. The bloodlines of both were of comparable levels. The Primeval Behemoth, with its divine bloodline, possessed combat prowess, destructive power, and various talents beyond the imagination of ordinary beings.
With this skill, Zhang Nu could transform into a Primeval Behemoth at will and gain all the corresponding abilities. This meant Zhang Nu now had dual forms, and for pure close combat, the behemoth form was several times stronger than the dragon form, with many combat talents that dragons did not possess.
This ability was extremely useful. Zhang Nu nodded in satisfaction, feeling that his goals had been more than achieved. It was time to finish up, leave this place, and attend to other matters. Of course, Zhang Nu also wanted to test his new ability.
