Chapter 1620
After training for four hours, Leon was the first to stop and open his eyes.
Seeing how Iris and the others were still training with their eyes closed, he thought of the Cuff of Doom and took it out to inspect it closely.
Activating the Cuff of Doom was easy and could be done by releasing one's spiritual or true energy. However, making an offering to the cuff seemed to be a more complicated process.
With the information he inherited from his ancestors and his knowledge of martial arts, Leon soon figured out the mechanism of the cuff, which worked similarly to storing one's Potential Energy Forces, which he learned from Master Haslewood.
Both would cause loss to one's core energy in the process of extracting their true or spiritual energy and transferring it to an object; however, the process of doing so to the Cuff of Doom was fundamentally different in a way.
What Master Haslewood did was store his energy in jadeite, and since a piece of jadeite was not a weapon, the energy stored within it could not be accumulated; taking the Potential Energy Forces Leon stored for Iris and the others as an example, since he was in the Initial Overlord State, the energy he left would not surpass his level of strength.
However, it was a different case with the Cuff of Doom.
The energy stored in it could be accumulated to form a much more powerful strike, and the extent to how powerful the attack relied heavily on the weapon itself. An Emperor Weapon could gather energy to form attacks in the Emperor State, while an Almighty Weapon could accumulate energy to form a strike equivalent to an attack from a martial artist in the Almighty State.
On top of that, there were a total of five grades of an Almighty Weapon, and a grade-five Almighty Weapon was the most important.
The Cuff of Doom was a grade-one Almighty Weapon and cold store strikes of attacks at the Initial Almighty State at best.
Since Asmodeus was in the Semi Almighty State, he would be able to accumulate an attack at the Initial Almighty State by storing his true energy into the cuff dozens of times. However, storing one's energy onto an object would cause loss to one's core energy, and doing so frequently over a short span of time would lead to damage to one's energy core.
Hence, Asmodeus would need to rest for a few days in between each offering, and it would take over a month for him to accumulate his energy into forming an attack at the Initial Almighty State without causing damage to his core.
Hence, despite working on the Cuff of Doom for the past few months, he had only managed to store two and a half attacks.
On top of that, an ordinary weapon had limits to how many strikes it could hold, which applied to even Emperor Weapons and Almighty Weapons, and only three attacks could be stored at one time.
"What the... This is no use to me even when it's more powerful than a super treasure!" Leon was stunned.
He had thought that he would stand a chance against other criminals with the possession of an Almighty Weapon and had just realized how naive he had been.
Not only was there a limit to the number of attacks stored, but the accumulation of energy was also extremely challenging, especially for a martial artist at a lower power level.
Asmodeus, who was in the Semi-Almighty State, would be able to accumulate an attack at the Initial Almighty State by storing his true energy into the cuff dozens of times. However, Leon was only in the Initial Supreme State, and it would take years before he could accumulate enough energy into the cuff to form an attack in the Initial Almighty State.
Thankfully, true energy and spiritual energy shared the same origin, and he could also offer his spiritual energy to the Cuff of Doom. Still, it would remain challenging because he was only in the Initial Overlord State.
It would take a year and a half for him to accumulate enough energy into the cuff to form an attack in the Initial Almighty State.
