Chapter 1: SSS-Rank Talent, Infinite Enhancement

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

[Detected that your innate talent is extraordinary!]

[Congratulations, you have been selected as a player of the Godfiend Continent!]

[Attention: The Godfiend Continent is a real world with 100 million players. Teleport now!]

Zhou Han, who was in class, suddenly heard an inexplicable electronic notification in his mind.

Before he could react, a white light enveloped him.

He disappeared from the classroom, leaving the students beside him dumbfounded.

Zhou Han slowly opened his eyes and found himself in an ancient city.

Well-equipped soldiers with a baleful aura were patrolling the streets. Clearly, they had been through wars.

The roars of dire beasts constantly came from outside the city, signaling that this world was definitely very dangerous.

"Damn, this is too tragic!" Zhou Han was a little speechless. He was still a student who had not experienced the adult world.

Suddenly, he was forced to come to an even more dangerous alternate world!

[Regional Announcement: You are currently in Zone 666—Blue Thunder City. There are 100,000 players.]

[All players have been teleported. The auxiliary system has been officially activated. This system will accompany you in your conquest of the Godfiend Continent.]

[Gentle reminder: Use your mind or voice to send instructions to the auxiliary system!]

After the prompt, a virtual panel appeared in Zhou Han's mind.

There were many sections on it. [Chat Area], [Trading Area], [Personal Information], and so on.

"Open the chat area!"

Zhou Han gave it a try and chanted in his mind.

Soon the scene changed and a virtual dialog box panel appeared in front of him.

It was somewhat similar to a chatting application.

This auxiliary system was indeed very intelligent.

He could really issue instructions with his thoughts conveniently.

Zhou Han entered the chat area to take a look.

At the moment, he was still a little confused and wanted to see if he could learn anything useful.

Everyone chatted enthusiastically, showing 999+ unread messages.

"What kind of place is this? I want to go back. I still have billions of dollars worth of assets waiting to be inherited!"

"Oh my God, how terrifying. I just saw a fire-breathing wolf outside the city. It was the size of an elephant…"

"Do—don't scare me. Is it that scary? I don't want to die! Mom, I want to go home. I'm forty years old and I still don't have a girlfriend!"

"Why go back? You want to return to a life of working 6 days a week with no rest?"

"I just communicated with a native in the city!"

"I heard that on the Godfiend Continent, as long as you have a good opportunity, you can even become a god. All life is equal, we will have a chance to become gods after today."

"I'm Ye Chen. I used to be a security guard at a top company. Now that the opportunity is in front of us, why don't we seize it? We might be able to change our fate!"

"Brother Chen is domineering. I think highly of you!"

...

Zhou Han watched for a while and learned some information. This world was like an online game, but it was not a virtual world.

There were many players selected, and they had all kinds of identities.

Rich kids, office workers, security guards, older men, and so on.

Regardless of their previous identities, everyone was on an equal footing after entering this alternate world. The starting point was the same.

[Regional Announcement: In ten minutes, every player's talent will be randomly selected.]

[Talent Rank: F, E, D, C, B, A, S, and above.]

[Talent can help players increase their strength, fight powerful enemies, and reach the peak!]

After hearing this announcement, the [Chat Area] exploded again.

The rank of talent did not represent their highest achievement.

Yet, it determined the speed of early development.

With a high-rank talent, one could definitely quickly stand out and take the initiative.

"Goodness, can we awaken a talent? It's so exciting. This way, everyone will have a different starting point and the gap will widen."

"I wonder what talent I can awaken. I'm so nervous! Do you have an anxiety pill? Give me one."

"In the name of the chosen one, please bless me. My requirements are low. An A-rank talent will suffice."

"Really, you call this low? I wonder what the probability of each rank is."

"Let's not talk about it. The ten minutes are up. The moment of revelation is here."

...

[Regional Announcement: Dear players, your talents have been randomly selected. Your character attributes panels have been activated. Please check it yourself!]

[The city is a safe zone. You will have three days of novice protection so you can stay in the city for free!]

[In order to prevent players from becoming lazy, you must pay 1 gold coin per night to stay after three days. Otherwise, you will be expelled!]

[Last reminder: This is the real world. Before reaching Level 100, you only have one life. Please explore carefully!]

[Good luck, all of you!]

After Zhou Han heard this, he immediately felt a sense of urgency. He only had three days.

With the protection of the army within the city, it was very safe.

However, there were all kinds of crises outside the city, especially at night when more powerful races roamed.

Three days later, if they could not pay the gold coins, they would be chased out of the city. The consequences could be imagined.

The alternate world was just that cruel!

"Oh right, talent! I wonder what kind of talent I awakened!" Zhou Han was looking forward to it.

He clicked on [Personal Information] and checked it.

[Player: Zhou Han]

[Level: 1 (0%)]

[Class: None (Class Change at Level 10)]

[Health: 100]

[Attack: 10]

[Defense: 0]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement (SSS-rank, the only one in the universe)]

Their initial levels were all Level 1, and their initial attack power was 10 points.

They could only change their class after reaching Level 10.

Zhou Han was still wearing his school uniform so his defense was 0.

Next was talent!

"Hmm?"

"What?"

"SSS-rank?"

Zhou Han's pupils constricted.

He saw that his talent was actually an SSS-rank Infinite Enhancement, and it was the only one in the entire universe.

He was completely shocked, and then he was overjoyed.

He was finally lucky for once!

After calming down a little, Zhou Han opened the details.

[Infinite Enhancement: It can consume a certain amount of enhancement points to enhance everything except yourself. After enhancement, it will randomly produce some special effects. The more times it enhances, the more heaven-defying the effects.]

This was very vague. The exact effect was unclear.

It seemed like he had to slowly explore it later!

"Right, enhancement points? How many enhancement points do I have now?"

How can I obtain enhancement points? Zhou Han asked in his heart.

[System prompt: Your current enhancement point is 0, but because you have just activated your talent, the system will give you a free enhancement opportunity.]

[Through leveling up, killing monsters, mission rewards, and other methods, you can obtain different amounts of enhancement points. The enhancement points obtained will be accumulated on the virtual interface. You can check it at any time!]

The smart auxiliary system directly answered Zhou Han's question.

Zhou Han nodded. As long as there was a way to obtain enhancement points, it would be easy.

"I wonder what the other players' talents are?"

Zhou Han was a little curious. After all, these players were all in Zone 666 and would be his potential opponents in the future.

It was important to know your enemy's situation.

Zhou Han looked at the chat area again.

"Hahaha, I'm taking off! I've awakened my D-rank talent, Defense Enhancement. Who else can compare to me?"

"How impressive. I envy you! I actually have an F-rank talent. It's too f*cking tragic."

"A mere D-rank talent dares to be impudent? I, Ye Chen, have a B-rank talent, Burning Blood Qi. I'm the Son of Destiny!"

"Brother Chen is awesome! I only have an E-rank talent. I'm too unlucky. Boohoo…"

"Sister, please message me. I also have an E-rank talent. This is my private photo!"

"Sister, don't be afraid. Brother will protect you!"

"Oh my, I can't stand it. Are you guys serious?"

"Ugh… I'm leaving!"

"Why is everyone so awesome? I've awakened the weakest F-rank talent!"

"Me too."

"I'm F-rank too!"

...

"Me too."

...

Soon, the chat area was flooded with the words F-rank. Clearly, there were the most people of this rank.

Most were F-rank talents, followed by E-rank.

Talent above D-rank was already rare.

He did not see anyone above or at S-rank, let alone SSS-rank.

Chapter 2: Enhanced Iron Sword, Poisoning Effect

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After closing [Chat Area], Zhou Han was prepared to see how effective his talent was!

However, he was empty-handed now. There was nothing he could use to strengthen himself.

There was just a school uniform.

He couldn't waste the chance of enhancement on ordinary clothes.

[System prompt: As a novice, please receive your novice weapon at the blacksmith shop in Blue Thunder City!]

"It's so good to have an auxiliary system!" Zhou Han sighed. Otherwise, it would be very time-consuming to explore by himself.

"System, where is the blacksmith shop? Do you have a map?"

[The map is being loaded…]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Loading complete. You have successfully located the blacksmith shop. The optimal route has been planned. Please check!]

Zhou Han took a look. The entire location of Blue Thunder City was displayed on the [Map].

According to the planned route, Zhou Han spent a few minutes walking over and arrived at the [Blacksmith Shop] in the north of the city.

A burly man, bare-chested, was hammering at the door of the blacksmith shop. He was a native of this world.

"Are you here to collect your weapon?"

As if noticing Zhou Han walking over, the burly man stopped and wiped his sweat as he said, "Take out your proof!"

Zhou Han quickly took out the [Newbie Certificate] from his bag. This was something every player had after transmigrating.

"You can use this Rusted Iron Sword for now," said the blacksmith, taking the certificate and handing over the weapon in a businesslike manner.

"Don't you have a better weapon?" Zhou Han was a little speechless. Was this thing really lethal?

"You're too weak to handle other weapons, lad!"

"Oh, by the way, there's also a skill book here that will help you in your field exploration!"

[System prompt: You have obtained a 'Rusted Iron Sword'.]

[You have obtained a Skill Book. Do you wish to learn it?]

"Learn." Zhou Han nodded. This should also be a benefit for newbies.

[Congratulations, you have successfully learned the skill 'Appraisal'!]

[Appraisal]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Description: The most basic identification skill. It can identify the attributes of a small number of objects.]

[Effect: Investigate the target's attributes, grade, level, equipment, and so on to make some corresponding analysis. (Cannot be used on players)]

After Zhou Han read it, he roughly understood.

He immediately activated Appraisal on the [Iron Sword].

[System prompt: You have activated Appraisal. Attribute data has been generated. Please check!]

Soon, some data about the iron sword appeared on the interface in Zhou Han's mind.

[Rusted Iron Sword]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Attributes: Attack+5]

[Description: An ordinary iron sword with a lot of rust on it. There's nothing to be introduced.]

Through the system's introduction, Zhou Han learned about the classification of weapons and equipment in this world.

They were divided into Ordinary, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Starlight, King, Emperor, and so on.

Therefore, this Rusted Iron Sword was considered the most trashy quality.

"Coincidentally, the system gave me a free enhancement opportunity!"

"Let's enhance the iron sword!" Zhou Han muttered to himself.

Right now, the only things he could enhance were the Rusted Iron Sword and the Appraisal spell.

Therefore, after some consideration, Zhou Han definitely chose to enhance the iron sword.

After all, it was a weapon. After enhancing it, it should be able to increase his attack power. This was what Zhou Han needed at the moment.

"I wonder what kind of effect it will have after enhancing the iron sword!" Zhou Han was looking forward to it.

He found an empty corner and chanted, "Enhance the iron sword!"

He used up the free enhancement opportunity.

[System prompt: You have activated the Talent—Infinite Enhancement. The 'Rusted Iron Sword' has been successfully enhanced once. The new attributes have been updated. Please check!]

Hearing the notification, Zhou Han hurriedly opened the attribute data.

[Rusted Iron Sword +1]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Type: Longsword-type weapon]

[Attributes: Attack+30]

[Special Effect: There is a 50% chance of afflicting Tetanus. In the tetanus state, the target will lose 100 HP per second for 10 seconds.]

[Description: It looks ordinary but is somewhat different.]

The grade did not change. It was still ordinary, but its attack power had increased by 25 points, reaching 30 points.

"Damn! That's awesome!"

"There's actually an additional special effect!" Zhou Han's eyebrows rose. He never expected that after enhancement, it would have such an awesome effect. It was a little surprising.

This tetanus effect was very suitable for a Rusted Iron Sword.

Moreover, the effect was very powerful.

With 100 health lost per second, that meant that as long as the target's health was less than 1,000, he could kill it in one move.

Looking at the plain iron sword in his hand, Zhou Han was very satisfied.

As expected of an SSS-rank talent. Even a Bronze weapon one grade higher wouldn't be so effective.

If it had such an effect after enhancing once, what if it was enhanced twice?

Zhou Han was looking forward to it.

It was just that there were no enhancement points now.

The most direct way to obtain enhancement points was to farm monsters.

"Looks like I have to go out of the city to farm some wild monsters."

However, Zhou Han did not go out rashly. The wild monsters were all outside the city and he did not know what was going on outside the city yet.

Indeed, after the [Rusted Iron Sword] was enhanced, the output effect was very powerful.

However, Zhou Han only had 100 HP. If many wild monsters surrounded him, he would not be able to deal with them.

"Let's see what the other players are like first."

Zhou Han entered the chat area.

He hoped to obtain some useful information from them.

As soon as he entered, he found hundreds of death notifications. be𝚍𝚗𝚘ve𝚕.c𝚘𝚖

He clicked on it.

[Player Ye Chen was killed by a Level 1 Sharp Caterpillar.]

[Player Ye Fan was killed by a Level 1 Black Dog.]

[Player Long Aotian was killed by a Level 1 Water Arrow Frog.]

...

"What's going on? We're just getting started and already so many people are dead?"

Zhou Han had a deep impression of Ye Chen.

This was because he had been saying tough words on the public chat.

Moreover, he had awakened a B-rank talent.

Zhou Han had already treated him as a potential competitor, so he paid a lot of attention to him.

Unexpectedly, he was insta-killed by a Level 1 monster as soon as he left the city.

"It seems that this world is much more dangerous than I imagined!"

The people in the chat area were even more anxious.

The power of the wild monster was beyond their imagination.

"How terrifying. Even a guy with B-rank talent was insta-killed by a wild monster. I really don't dare to leave the city!"

"How can I live? If I don't get out of the city and earn gold, I'll die in three days."

"Boohoo, why did you let me come to this godforsaken place? Now that I think about it, having a job is much better. Unfortunately, it's gone forever!"

"Everyone, don't be so pessimistic. Although we can't defeat the wild monsters alone, we can form a team and fight them together!"

"He's right. I, Chen Beixuan, have a B-rank talent. I'm currently recruiting teammates with talent above C-rank to form an elite combat force."

"Boss, I have a D-rank talent. Please guide me! Save a spot for me."

...

Soon, the chat area became popular again.

Everyone was looking for their teammates and cozying up to them. After all, this concerned their lives and safety. It was not child's play, so they were naturally extremely cautious.

"Huh? This is an attribute picture of a wild monster?"

"Only 300-500 HP?"

Soon, a player posted some Level 1 wild monster attributes in the chat. After Zhou Han clicked on them, he immediately felt relieved.

In this case, Zhou Han was not afraid at all with the enhanced [Rusted Iron Sword] in his hand.

"System, which map should I enter?" Zhou Han quickly asked.

[System prompt: Due to your current strength, you can only choose the map 'Fog Forest'. The route has been planned for you!]

Soon, Zhou Han arrived at the entrance of the Fog Forest.

It was livelier here.

"Recruiting someone with an E-rank talent."

"I'll only accept teammates with the D-rank talent, Strength Enhancement, to form a strength team."

"Any teammates with awakened speed talent? We'll specialize in guerrilla tactics."

"Any big shots here? I'm a rich second-generation heir. My family has money. I'll pay a million dollars each time."

Hearing this, many people laughed. He was probably a fool!

What was the use of his money now?

"This is the Godfiend Continent. Do you think this is our old world? Are you stupid?"

"He's gone mad. This brainless rich kid probably wouldn't last a day."

At this moment, the entrance was already crowded and very lively.

There was a familiar feeling of online games clearing dungeons. Everyone was recruiting suitable teammates.

"Little brother! Do you want to form a team? Come to our team!"

Suddenly, a gentle and intellectual voice came from behind Zhou Han. It was very pleasant.

Zhou Han turned around and was stunned.

Dressed in office gear and black stockings, she'd probably been teleported here while she was at work.

She was tall and curvaceous, with a small, slender waist.

Her beautiful face was soul-stirring. She looked like a female CEO in a city novel.

"Sorry! I don't need a team!" Zhou Han refused decisively. It wasn't that he didn't like beauty or had no thought of conquering her, but that this alternate world was filled with unknown dangers.

Now, the main thing was to consider how to survive and become stronger.

As for the rest, he would think about it later!

If they formed a team, the teammates would leech some experience points. Zhou Han would definitely not choose to do this.

"What? You're rejecting me?" Han Qinxue looked at Zhou Han's departing back and pouted indignantly. If not for the fact that Zhou Han was handsome, she would not have taken the initiative to invite him to join the team.

"Hehe! Sister, it looks like your charm has decreased!" Han Xiangning teased.

"Alright, now is not the time to discuss this! Hurry up and form a team. Earning gold coins as soon as possible is the most important thing," Han Qinxue said angrily.

Chapter 3: School Belles, First Encounter with Dire Beasts

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han did not waste any time and walked into the entrance of the Fog Forest.

At the entrance was a door of light with inexplicable energy flowing through it.

As soon as he entered, a light flashed and Zhou Han's figure instantly disappeared.

He felt a brief tearing sensation on his body and soon heard the prompt.

[System prompt: The current realm is the Fog Forest. This area is a combat area. Players can attack each other. Please pay attention to your safety!]

Hearing the system notification, Zhou Han's eyes narrowed.

The meaning was obvious. In this area, players could kill each other. This was even crueler.

As the name suggested, there was a thin white fog floating in the air.

Ads by Pubfuture

The visibility was very low, and one could vaguely hear the low roars of dire beasts.

Even though he had the enhanced Rusted Iron Sword, Zhou Han did not get carried away. If he was surrounded by wild monsters, it would not be easy for him.

Therefore, to be cautious, Zhou Han's current strategy was to find wild monsters that were alone and kill them.

This way, it was the safest.

The development period in the early stages was the most difficult. As long as he got through it, it would be much easier later on.

Having made the decision, Zhou Han carefully explored the forest.

After walking for about three to four hundred meters, he was lucky to finally encounter a lone wild monster.

It looked like a chicken, but it was several times larger than an ordinary chicken. Moreover, it had a green-gray shell all over its body, and its defense looked very strong.

"Cuckoo!"

At this moment, it was holding its crown high and crying loudly as if no one was around.

"Appraisal!" Zhou Han chanted in his mind.

Soon, the attributes of this wild monster appeared on the virtual interface.

[Iron Rock Chicken]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Level: 1]

[Health: 300]

[Attack: 23]

[Defense: 10]

[Skill: Iron Rock Shield (The body is covered with a layer of iron rock. Increases defense by 3 points for 10 seconds. Cooldown: 60 seconds)]

[Description: Its defense is very strong. New players are advised not to fight it head-on. Otherwise, bear the consequences!]

After reading it, Zhou Han finally knew why so many players died.

These wild monsters are indeed very strong,

With 23 Attack, it only needed to attack five times to easily finish off a player.

After all, novice players had no defense, and their HP was only 100 points.

No wonder the arrogant Ye Chen was instantly killed by a Level 1 monster.

Relying on the system-issued initial weapons alone, the player only had 15 Attack, 0 Defense, and 100 HP, so it was purely courting death by fighting the wild monsters alone.

"The Iron Rock Chicken has 300 HP!"

'If I trigger the effect of tetanus, I'll only need three seconds to kill it!' Zhou Han thought.

However, the chance of triggering tetanus is only 50%, so if he did not trigger it, he would be finished.

Zhou Han was still a little worried.

"Just three hits. If I don't trigger the tetanus effect after three hits, I have to escape!"

This was because the Iron Rock Chicken only needed five attacks to kill Zhou Han.

'I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous.'

"Whew!"

After making his choice and planning his escape route, Zhou Han took a deep breath.

He launched a surprise attack on the self-absorbed Iron Rock Chicken.

Bang!

The iron sword struck the Iron Rock Chicken and felt a huge resistance. Its defense was indeed very strong.

-20

Red damage values floated out on the cockscomb.

Ads by Pubfuture

With only 20 points of damage, even if it was enhanced, it would take 30 strikes to kill it with just normal attacks. After such a long time, the wild monster would have already killed him. 𝚋edn𝚘𝚟el.co𝚖

"I'm out of luck! Tetanus didn't trigger!"

It seemed that the Iron Rock Chicken was a little confused.

Actually, it had long noticed Zhou Han, but when it saw that the other party was a newbie and was still alone, it ignored him.

It did not expect Zhou Han to dare to provoke it alone.

"Again!"

Zhou Han took this opportunity to stab again, but he still did not trigger the special effect.

"Cuckoo!"

The Iron Rock Chicken was furious. Its sharp beak pecked Zhou Han.

-23

A painful feeling came. The huge difference in strength made Zhou Han stagger a few steps back.

The Iron Rock Chicken took advantage of the situation and spread its wings, pouncing on Zhou Han.

-23

Zhou Han was shocked. He had already lost 46 HP.

He raised his iron sword and slashed.

If this attack did not trigger the effect, he would have to escape.

[System prompt: You have successfully triggered the special effect 'Tetanus'. The Iron Rock Chicken is currently in a tetanus state. Within ten seconds, it will lose 100 HP per second.]

"Good! It's done!"

The system notification sounded like heavenly music. Zhou Han was overjoyed.

He put away his iron sword and hurriedly distanced himself from the Iron Rock Chicken.

Now, only three seconds were needed. The Iron Rock Chicken would definitely die.

Zhou Han would definitely not be stupid enough to continue fighting it.

-100

-100

-100

Bang!

Three seconds later, the huge body of the Iron Rock Chicken fell to the ground. Zhou Han wiped the sweat on his forehead and smiled.

[Congratulations, you have killed a Level 1 Iron Rock Chicken and obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

After seeing the experience points accumulated on the interface, Zhou Han was very happy.

This first battle was won without any mishaps.

He picked up five copper coins from the floor.

The currency of the Godfiend Continent was divided into copper, silver, and gold coins.

A gold coin was worth a hundred silver coins. It was worth ten thousand copper coins.

Therefore, if one wishes to obtain a gold coin for a day in the city, he would have to kill 2,000 Level 1 wild monsters in three days.

Of course, as the level and grade of the monsters killed increased, the benefits obtained would naturally increase.

"Huh? Equipment dropped?"

When Zhou Han was packing up the copper coins, he discovered that there was a black shirt beside the Iron Rock Chicken's corpse.

He was immediately a little excited to have come to the Iron Rock Chicken.

He immediately picked it up.

[Congratulations, you have obtained equipment 'Cotton Robe'. Do you want to appraise the attributes of this equipment?]

Ads by Pubfuture

"Yes!" Zhou Han hurriedly nodded in agreement.

He did not expect to obtain equipment after killing the first dire beast. His luck was not bad.

After using appraisal, all the attributes appeared on the virtual interface.

[Cotton Robe]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Type: Armor Equipment]

[Attributes: Defense +2]

[Description: Black fabric. Looks cold in it, and it's quite warm, but its defense is average.]

After seeing the effect, Zhou Han took off his school uniform and changed into the robe.

He looked good in black but most importantly, his defense was no longer 0.

Chapter 4: HP Recovery Effect, Powerful Defense

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

[System prompt: Your current enhancement point has been detected as 1. Do you want to enhance the Cotton Robe?]

As soon as he put it on, the system prompted him to enhance it.

"Oh? It only needs 1 enhancement point?" Zhou Han was pleasantly surprised.

If that were the case, it would be awesome!

[The number of enhancement points required for an item depends on the quality and rarity of the item!]

In other words, this robe was too trashy!

However, Zhou Han did not mind. It was already good enough that he had a piece of equipment to wear now.

"Just enhance it directly!"

Ads by Pubfuture

[You have activated the Talent—Infinite Enhancement. It has consumed 1 enhancement point. You have successfully enhanced the Ordinary equipment 'Cotton Robe' once. The new attributes have been updated. Please check!]

A white light flashed and a new attribute slowly appeared on the paper.

[Cotton Robe +1]

[Grade: Ordinary] 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝒏𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙣𝙚𝒕

[Type: Armor Equipment]

[Attributes: Defense+26]

[Special Effect: Beginner HP Recovery Effect. After wearing this equipment, you will recover 20 HP per second. (HP limit cannot be exceeded)]

[Description: It has an automatic healing effect. Mom won't have to worry about my remaining HP anymore.]

"Wow! This effect is strong!"

After reading it, Zhou Han was overjoyed.

Defense directly increased by 26 points and there was an additional Beginner HP Recovery Effect.

This was the prelude to taking off!

Without another word, Zhou Han put on his clothes.

[System prompt: It has been detected that you are not at full health. Beginner HP Recovery has been triggered!]

+20

+20

Soon, the HP he had lost from fighting with the Iron Rock Chicken just now was instantly restored.

"Awesome!"

"SSS talent is awesome!" Zhou Han exclaimed excitedly in his heart.

With [Cotton Robe +1] in hand, if Zhou Han encountered the [Iron Rock Chicken] now, he could directly fight it head-on.

Even if he didn't trigger [Tetanus], he could still kill it.

With powerful defense, coupled with the special effect of healing, he could easily kill any Level 1 monster now.

Zhou Han felt refreshed. Without wasting any time, he began to search for traces of Level 1 wild monsters.

As a novice map, there were naturally many Level 1 wild monsters.

However, most of them appeared in groups of more than ten.

It was very lethal, and Zhou Han would not take the initiative to provoke it now.

After all, not only did one have to fight wild monsters, but one also had to be wary of players' sneak attacks.

Therefore, that kind of protracted battle should be avoided if possible.

Zhou Han continued to search the forest.

Whoosh!

As he heard a sound, a black shadow attacked when he had just passed a large tree.

Zhou Han felt sharp claws scratch his back and felt a burning pain.

He hurriedly turned around.

"You have a death wish!"

Seeing that the black shadow was about to attack, he hurriedly drew his iron sword and slashed at it.

Bang!

The black shadow was hit directly and looked at Zhou Han with some fear.

It didn't expect the sharp claws to cause so little damage to the person in front of it. It didn't make sense.

Meanwhile, Zhou Han also activated the appraisal and saw the attributes of the black shadow.

[Shadow Squirrel]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Level: 1]

[Health: 290]

[Attack: 35]

[Defense: 6]

[Skill: Shadow Claw (Temporarily increases attack power and deals a fatal blow to the enemy)]

[Description: Good at stealth and raiding in the shadows. A nightmare for novice players.]

There was actually 35 Attack, so if Zhou Han had not equipped the [Cotton Robe], he would probably be finished now.

"Beast! You actually killed so many people!"

He saw the corpses of several players on the ground. They must have been ambushed and killed by the Shadow Squirrel in such a way.

Whoosh!

Just as Zhou Han was checking, the Shadow Squirrel came over again.

"It's about time. Die!"

Zhou Han also rushed forward and slashed fiercely. The main reason was that he did not have any skills now, so he could only attack normally.

After four attacks, the effect of [Tetanus] was successfully triggered.

"Ha! Trying to escape?"

Seeing the Shadow Squirrel escape into the distance, Zhou Han sneered.

These wild monsters were quite intelligent. They knew that they could not defeat them, so they did not fight them head-on.

Fortunately, it was hit by [Tetanus]. Otherwise, it would have really escaped.

Two seconds later, the Shadow Squirrel fell out of the tree.

[System prompt: You have successfully killed a Level 1 wild monster, Shadow Squirrel. You have obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

However, no equipment dropped this time.

Zhou Han did not mind. He could not be so lucky every time.

"System, can I undergo the second enhancement?" Zhou Han asked after obtaining the enhancement points.

[Sorry, the second enhancement requires ten enhancement points. Detected that your enhancement points are not enough. Please work hard to earn enhancement points and enhance it again!]

"Just 10 points? Good!"

"I'll be able to do it after killing another nine Level 1 monsters!" Zhou Han was filled with enthusiasm because he was still filled with anticipation for the second enhancement.

After packing up the copper coins, Zhou Han started hunting again.

[System prompt: You have successfully killed a Level 1 wild monster, Shadow Squirrel. You have obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

[System prompt: You have successfully killed the Level 1 wild monster, Black Dog. You have obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

[System prompt: You have successfully killed a Level 1 wild monster, Poison Spike Worm. You have obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

[System prompt: You have successfully killed a Level 1 wild monster, Poison Spike Worm. You have obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

...

With the special effect of Beginner HP Recovery, Zhou Han had many chances to make mistakes.

His movement technique and combat skills had also been honed a lot in the process of fighting.

Therefore, he was more efficient than before.

The notifications of killing wild monsters kept coming.

"Now I have 9 enhancement points!"

"I'm just a little bit away from the second enhancement!" Zhou Han glanced at the interface and muttered happily to himself.

Searching carefully through the jungle, Zhou Han heard a commotion not far away and a shrill cry.

He was amused when he looked at it.

"Ah! So it's two cats in heat!"

"I'm just short of an enhancement point. You guys will do!"

Zhou Han prepared to sneak over, but they quickly detected him.

"Meow…"

"Meow…"

Having been interrupted, the two black cats were abnormally angry. They bared their teeth, and their eyes revealed a fierce glint, wanting to tear Zhou Han apart.

They were as large as ordinary wolves.

Now, their hair was standing on end as they stared at Zhou Han. Their cautious nature made them not take the initiative to attack but constantly probe.

Chapter 5: Attack of the Fire Wolves

At the same time, Zhou Han also activated the appraisal.

[Wind Cat]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Level: 1]

[Health: 300]

[Attack: 40]

[Defense: 10]

[Skill: Bloodthirsty Bite (Using extreme speed, it will bite the enemy relentlessly.)]

[Description: It is known for its speed and is a very powerful existence among Level 1 wild monsters. It has the speed of the wind and is very difficult to deal with!]

Zhou Han's eyes narrowed. It was actually good at speed. This was not so easy to deal with.

It was not that Zhou Han was afraid of their attack, but that they would use their advantage in speed to escape. In that case, it would be completely pointless to fight.

"I should expose a flaw first and lure them in!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Han had a plan. He probably exposed his back and pretended to be flustered as he slowly retreated.

"Meow…"

As expected, the two Wind Cats took the opportunity to pounce on Zhou Han.

...

There was a small team in the nearby jungle. Four men were cautiously looking for stragglers.

"Sister, I hear fighting ahead!" Han Xiangning's talent was Hearing Enhancement. She said with a serious expression.

The fight was very intense and definitely not something they could interfere in.

"Yes, I've already seen it. A player is being chased by two Wind Cats!"

"Oh no, he's running towards us!" Han Qinxue said nervously.

Her talent was Vision Enhancement, and it was precisely because of this that they could avoid many dangers and prevent any loss to the team.

She had also seen this Wind Cat from afar.

A Wind Cat could wipe out a team with its extremely fast speed.

It was because they knew how terrifying this wild monster was that they acted so panicked.

"What? The Wind Cat was lured over? Damn it!" A male in the team, Cai Lang, had a gloomy expression.

If they were targeted by a Wind Cat, there was no way they could escape at their speed. Now, there were two of them.

"Let's escape! It's too late!"

"This… I'm afraid the situation isn't optimistic!" Another member of the team said, looking a little afraid!

In a flash, before the four of them could move, the two Wind Cats chased after Zhou Han like a gust of wind.

"Now!" Zhou Han smiled calmly. He turned around, raised his iron sword, and slashed at the Wind Cats.

Right now, the Wind Cats let down their guard because, in their eyes, Zhou Han's actions were just a desperate struggle.

Therefore, the two rushed towards Zhou Han.

They bit viciously with their sharp claws.

This was exactly what Zhou Han wanted. He was afraid that the Wind Cats would escape, so he wasted so much effort.

Sure enough, as long as he got close, everything would be fine.

Under Zhou Han's fierce slash, the effect of tetanus was also triggered one after another.

When the Wind Cats reacted, there was nothing they could do but bleed to death.

The four had just escaped some distance when they realized that the movement behind them had stopped abruptly. 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑜𝘳𝘨

"That's… amazing!"

"He actually killed two Wind Cats by himself?"

"How is that possible?"

Han Xiangning's beautiful eyes trembled as she exclaimed repeatedly. This was the first time she had seen such a fierce player.

Along the way, the other players they encountered were all in the form of four-man teams. They were all very careful.

Zhou Han, who was in front of him, actually killed all the Wind Cats alone. It was unbelievable.

"So strong! But why does his figure look so familiar?" Han Qinxue also sighed. Because Zhou Han was fighting with his back towards them, she couldn't see his appearance clearly.

"I got it. Look at his gear!"

"He's probably lucky. This equipment has a powerful defense. That's why it can block the Wind Cats' attacks!"

Cai Lang said indignantly. Seeing the admiring gazes of the two beauties, he felt a wave of jealousy.

There was a trace of greed in his eyes.

If he could obtain such equipment, he would definitely be so powerful.

Therefore, his mind naturally became active.

"Huh! It's him!"

Zhou Han turned around. Han Qinxue finally saw his appearance and was a little surprised.

How powerful was this man who rejected her?

No wonder he didn't team up with anyone.

"Sister, you're talking about him!"

"His name is Zhou Han. He's my classmate from the class next door!" Han Xiangning also saw it. When she spoke, her face was slightly red, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"What a coincidence! You're classmates!"

"Then quickly go and say hello!" Han Qinxue hurriedly urged. From her sister's expression, she was probably interested in Zhou Han.

"I don't think that's a good idea!" Han Xiangning said coyly, her face turning even redder.

"Go quickly! You are acquaintances. We can have someone to take care of us in the other world!" Han Qinxue continued.

Zhou Han was quite strong. If he could bring them along, they would definitely be able to develop quickly in the early stages.

...

After the battle ended, Zhou Han picked up all the copper coins that had dropped.

"Now that I have eleven enhancement points, I can undergo a second enhancement!" Zhou Han said to himself happily.

"Howl!"

"Howl!"

He was about to enhance it when he heard the rising and falling howls of wolves.

Then the ground shook violently.

"Is this a pack?"

Zhou Han's expression also changed. It was not a problem to deal with two or three level-one dire beasts.

However, if he was dealing with a group, it was hard to say.

Directly ahead, fiery red wolves the size of water buffaloes suddenly appeared.

Their fierce eyes stared at the four people in front of them with bloodlust.

'My God, it's a pack of Fire Wolves that are big as buffaloes!'

"They can spit fire. So many players died at their hands!"

"They must have found out about the battle!"

"Oh my God! There are more than a dozen of them. We're going to die!"

"There's a steep ledge up ahead. We'll climb it, where we can hide from the wolves."

As the howling continued behind them, Han Qinxue and the others quickly reached an agreement and ran towards the mountain rocks.

The rock wall was more than ten meters high, just enough to avoid the wolf pack.

Zhou Han's target was also there without hesitation.

With his current strength, he was still unable to fight against more than ten Fire Wolves.

"Hmm? Did he come over too?"

"Good chance!"

Cai Lang saw Zhou Han, who was climbing the mountain rock diagonally below him, and a trace of viciousness appeared in his eyes.

He had been coveting Zhou Han's equipment just now.

Now that an opportunity had presented itself, how could he let it go?

Zhou Han was a little further away than them, so he fell behind.

Suddenly, he felt a huge force on his hand.

The pain made Zhou Han subconsciously let go and fall.

Seeing that the Fire Wolves were already approaching, Cai Lang smiled wryly.

This fellow was definitely dead!

Chapter 6: Second Enhancement, Pursuing the Fire Wolves

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"What happened? Something went down!" Han Qinxue asked hurriedly when she heard the bang.

"I think I saw the man behind slip and fall!"

"Sigh! I wanted to help him, but it was too late!" Cai Lang pretended to be sincere.

"What? You said Zhou Han fell down?"

Han Xiangning, who had just climbed to the top, hurriedly looked down.

Sure enough, Zhou Han was not on the rock wall.

Through the dense leaves, she could vaguely see that Zhou Han seemed to be lying on the ground.

She wondered what the exact situation was.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Zhou Han!"

"Zhou Han, come up quickly!"

Han Xiangning shouted loudly, but Zhou Han did not seem to have any reaction.

"No, I have to go down and save him."

"You're crazy! The Fire Wolves are already coming. Aren't you courting death if you continue like this?"

Han Qinxue hurriedly stopped her and said loudly.

"I… Zhou Han!"

Han Xiangning closed her eyes in despair. She hated herself for being shy just now and not greeting Zhou Han. They were already far apart!

"It's not impossible. With the strength he displayed just now, there might be a chance of survival?"

Han Qinxue didn't even believe herself when she said that. She was just comforting her sister.

"Is … is that true?"

Han Xiangning stared into Han Qinxue's eyes, wanting to confirm this possibility.

"Yes!"

Seeing her sister's hopeful eyes, Han Qinxue turned her head away, unwilling to tell the truth. She nodded gently.

Cai Lang sneered inwardly. Create a miracle?

In a few minutes, Zhou Han would die without a corpse.

At that time, that defensive equipment would be his.

He would truly be powerful.

As for these two sisters, hehe…

Cai Lang's mind was filled with lust.

...

"Ouch… that hurts!"

After all, Zhou Han was still at Level 1, and his body was only that of an ordinary person.

The fall from five or six meters still hurt.

The moment he fell, he lost 80 HP.

It was almost fatal.

[System prompt: Your HP has been detected to be below 100%. The Beginner HP Recovery Effect has been automatically triggered!]

The healing effect was activated, and his HP was full in a few seconds.

This was not the time to worry about pain.

Zhou Han took a closer look.

A dozen Fire Wolves had gathered around, if he didn't think of something soon, he would really be finished.

[Fire Wolf]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Level: 1]

[Health: 330]

[Attack: 45]

[Defense: 20]

[Skill: Fire Spray (A fireball that deals 60 damage to all enemy units within a meter. Cooldown: 30 seconds)]

[Description: A pack of dire beasts. Be careful of their attacks.]

If more than a dozen Fire Wolves attacked at the same time, their attack power would be more than 500.

Even though Zhou Han had 26 points of defense, he was still instantly killed.

"Right! Second enhancement!"

Zhou Han was also a little nervous. This was his last hope. He hoped that his SSS-rank talent would not disappoint.

"Enhance the Cotton Robe!"

[System prompt: You have activated the Talent—Infinite Enhancement. It has consumed 10 enhancement points. The Ordinary equipment 'Cotton Robe +1' has been successfully enhanced. The new attributes have been automatically updated on the interface. Please check!]

Even if Zhou Han wanted to check now, it was already too late.

A Fire Wolf was already on his arm.

-0

'Wait? I'm actually not losing HP?'

Zhou Han was delighted. In that case, his enhanced defense had become too high?

He had been worried, but now he breathed a sigh of relief.

Seizing this opportunity, Zhou Han quickly scanned the new attribute effects.

[Cotton Robe +2]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Type: Armor Equipment]

[Attributes: Defense+50, HP+200]

[Special Effect 1: Intermediate HP Recovery Effect. After wearing this equipment, you will recover 200 HP per second. (HP limit cannot be exceeded)]

[Special Effect 2: Beginner Evasion Effect. After wearing this equipment, you have a 10% chance of dodging ordinary attacks.]

[Description: The Ordinary equipment is now a powerful layer of protection.]

"Damn, this is amazing!"

"50 points of defense and 200 HP. What a strong defense!" Zhou Han was very surprised as soon as he saw the attributes.

This intensity had completely exceeded the scope of ordinary quality.

There were more surprises to come as Zhou Han read on.

He realized that two special effects had appeared. It was simply too exaggerated.

The Intermediate HP Recovery that recovered 200 HP per second and the Beginner Evasion that has a chance to dodge ordinary attacks meant that the defensive effect had gotten stronger.

The Fire Wolf with 45 Attack could not break through his defense at all. Therefore, Zhou Han was intact and did not feel any pressure.

"Wow! Awesome!" Zhou Han roared, feeling very happy.

The effect of enhancing twice was too damn awesome. It was simply too awesome.

The Fire Wolf still refused to give up and continued to bite, but it was still useless.

Doubt flashed in the eyes of the other Fire Wolves.

If they could speak, they would surely say,?Is this really a newbie? What a freak.

As if unwilling to give up, the Fire Wolves directly used the skill [Fire Spray].

Then several hot flames attacked.

-10

-10

They only caused minor damage.

Other than some thick smoke, it had no effect.

The wolves were as stunned as huskies.

'That doesn't make any sense!'

"Bunch of animals, I'm going to skin you alive today!"

At first, Zhou Han was a little afraid, but after the second enhancement, his attributes were much stronger.

He was not afraid of these Fire Wolves at all. Even if another 100 of them came, they would not be able to hurt Zhou Han at all.

Even if these Fire Wolves used their skills, they could only deal 10 damage.

With the effect of recovering 200 HP per second, this was nothing.

Zhou Han raised his iron sword and slashed wildly without any pattern. In any case, the more he watched, the higher the probability of triggering the special effects.

[You triggered the Tetanus Effect!]

[You triggered the Tetanus Effect!]

[You triggered the Beginner Evasion Effect!]

...

Soon, under Zhou Han's fierce attacks, more and more Fire Wolves fell into a state of tetanus.

Every few seconds, one of them would fall. The rest were terrified by the slaughter.

Zhou Han was like a berserker, invincible and fearless.

Although these Fire Wolves were not smart, they were not stupid.

Knowing that Zhou Han was not easy to deal with and that the others had all fallen, it was useless to continue wasting time. The wolves did not hesitate to run with their tails between their legs.

"Damn, still trying to run?!"

"You're all enhancement points!"

The situation suddenly reversed as Zhou Han chased after them with his sword while the Fire Wolves fled in front.

A group of players was farming monsters nearby and happened to see this scene. They were all dumbfounded.

What the hell was going on?

They rubbed their eyes and realized it wasn't an illusion.

'I can't believe there's such a monster in our area. Hunting down Fire Wolves?'

This person was even fiercer than the dire beasts!

One of the team members opened the chat area and sent a message.

"Brothers, I just saw a man with an iron sword chasing a pack of Fire Wolves."

"Brother, don't spew nonsense. You're bragging too much!"

"What are you talking about? If the four of us can't handle a Fire Wolf, who can be that awesome?"

"I really did see it. My teammates can testify!"

"Let me tell you, I am Chen Beixuan, the one with a B-rank talent. Even I don't dare to fight the Fire Wolf alone, let alone the others! Everyone, disperse. Don't listen to this kid's bragging!"

No one in the chat area believed this person. They thought he was just trying to attract attention.

At this moment, this person was a little stunned. He looked around and saw that Zhou Han had already disappeared.

Could it really be an illusion?

"Ah…"

After chasing for an unknown period of time, Zhou Han could not take it anymore. He panted heavily and could only stop to rest.

"These huskies sure run fast!"

A total of 15 Fire Wolves were killed. The remaining four could not be caught and escaped.

Zhou Han rested for a while and began to count his gains.

In the end, he was disappointed to find that the equipment drop rate was too low.

If the drop rate of Ordinary equipment was so low, wouldn't the drop rate of Bronze equipment be even lower?

On the other hand, the copper coins had increased quite a bit. If he really couldn't get any equipment, he could buy them from the blacksmith in the city, but they weren't cheap.

It seemed that he still had to earn gold coins. He was too poor now.

Moreover, it would take a lot of time to run back and forth. Zhou Han decided to farm for them himself first.

When it was dark and there was still no drop, he would try to buy equipment.

However, before killing monsters, Zhou Han had something to deal with.

"How dare you plot against me?"

"I'll tear you to pieces today!"

There was no reason to wait.

Zhou Han's eyes were filled with killing intent after being plotted against like this.

He also learned that this was truly a different world.

There were no longer rules or laws to obey.

Compared to the wild monsters, these players were the biggest threat. 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝐞𝐥.𝗻𝗲𝐭

Other than the safe zone that prevented fighting, in the battle zone outside the city, any danger could happen.

If he was merciful now, he might be targeted again.

Having thought this through, Zhou Han walked in the same direction with a murderous aura.

Chapter 7: Killing Cai Lang, Reaching Level 2 (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Along the way, he also encountered many wild monsters.

However, Zhou Han had a powerful defense, so he did not have to be as cautious as before.

When encountering a pack of wild monsters, there was no need to avoid them.

He charged forward and attacked!

[System prompt: Your enhancement points are enough. Do you want to enhance the 'Rusted Iron Sword' a second time?]

"Enhance!" Zhou Han nodded.

[System prompt: You have activated the Talent—Infinite Enhancement. It has consumed 10 enhancement points. The Ordinary weapon 'Rusted Iron Sword +1' has been successfully enhanced. The new attributes have been updated on the interface. Please check!]

"Very good! It seems that the enhancement rate is 100%!" Zhou Han felt that it was a hidden effect. Anyway, he had enhanced it four times and had succeeded all the time.

Ads by Pubfuture

A white light floated across the iron sword, and attribute data slowly appeared on the virtual interface.

Zhou Han looked over.

[Iron Sword +2]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Type: Longsword-type weapon]

[Attributes: Attack+90]

[Special Effect 1: Severe Tetanus. The target will definitely be infected by your ordinary attack. In the state of severe tetanus, the target will lose 120 HP every second for 10 seconds.]

[Special Effect 2: Sword Aura. After every three ordinary attacks, the next ordinary attack will definitely trigger a sword aura that will cause (3x Attack) damage to all enemy units within a three-meter radius.]

[Description: The rusty iron sword has become sharper and contains mysteries now. It doesn't look simple.]

"Strong, too strong!" Zhou Han laughed heartily. After two enhancements, the effect was even better.

Coupled with his basic attack power, Zhou Han's total attack power had already reached 100 points.

The special effects also became more powerful.

Special Effect 1's Tetanus Effect changed from a 50% probability to a 100% trigger rate.

This also meant that Zhou Han's ordinary attack could deal 100 points of damage, and the other party would lose 120 HP each second.

The damage was way higher now.

Special Effect 2, Sword Aura, was also very good. It could cause area damage, make it easier to kill monsters, and increase the efficiency of farming.

With Zhou Han's current attack power, it could cause 300 points of range damage.

If he encountered such a situation in the future, it would be even easier to resolve it.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

More than ten large Needle Bees darted out from a bush and attacked Zhou Han.

"Thank you for the delivery!" Zhou Han smiled. He raised his sword and rushed over fearlessly.

He had always taken a detour on this route previously.

But now, these Needle Bees put no pressure on Zhou Han at all.

[You have successfully triggered the Sword Aura special effect. It will cause area damage!]

With the system notification, sword energy spewed out.

Although these Needle Bees were flying in the sky, most of them were still affected and were instantly killed.

When the rest saw this, they ran away in fear.

As he was chasing after the Fire Wolves earlier, Zhou Han ran a little far.

After he washed the wild monsters along the way with blood, he finally arrived at the spot where the rock wall had been.

...

"Zhou Han!"

"Where's Zhou Han?" Han Xiangning shouted anxiously.

"Don't worry! There are many corpses of Fire Wolves on the ground. What happened?" Han Qinxue quickly reminded him.

"Could it be that he really defeated the Fire Wolf pack?" A trace of hope appeared in Han Xiangning's eyes. Although she knew that this was very difficult, she hoped that Zhou Han could survive.

'Ha! Defeat the Fire Wolves? He's probably dead already!' Cai Lang sneered in his mind.

He came down from the rock wall and prepared to pick up Zhou Han's equipment.

But as he was about to search, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a figure.

"Aren't… aren't you dead?" Cai Lang was so frightened that he fell to the ground, panic filling his heart.

"I've finally found you!" Zhou Han smiled coldly.

"Let me explain. I accidentally stepped on you. I apologize!"

"I really didn't mean to!" Cai Lang pleaded, his mouth trembling.

"Hah! Apologize?" 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝐞𝐥.𝗻𝗲𝐭

"How childish of you. Do you think this is a game? Today is the day you die!"

Zhou Han held his iron sword and slowly approached Cai Lang, his eyes filled with endless killing intent.

"D-don't come over here! I was wrong. Spare me this once!"

Zhou Han did not speak and walked closer.

The cold gaze made Cai Lang shiver.

"You actually want to kill me just for that? I'll end your life now!"

Cai Lang revealed a ferocious expression and raised his iron saber to slash at Zhou Han.

-0

-0

'What?'

'I can't break his defense?'

Zhou Han was like a mountain in front of him, unmoving.

Cai Lang's face was immediately filled with despair and regret.

If he had known earlier, why would he have provoked Zhou Han?

Ads by Pubfuture

"Have you had enough? If so, you can go to hell!"

Zhou Han's cold voice sounded without a trace of emotion.

With that, he slashed with his iron sword.

Before Cai Lang could say anything, he fell to the ground.

He twitched on the ground a few times and died.

Killing people was different from killing dire beasts.

Although Zhou Han was killing monsters casually, he was actually quite nervous. After all, he was only an 18-year-old boy.

He had to slowly adapt to this!

The strong were respected in the Godfiend Continent, and the weak were eliminated.

To become strong, one had to have a strong heart.

Chapter 8: Killing Cai Lang, Reaching Level 2 (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Ah…"

"What…"

The sisters screamed and huddled together, a little panicked, clearly frightened by the scene.

At the same time, they were also shocked by Zhou Han's strength.

If he killed Cai Lang with a single strike, wouldn't his attack power exceed a hundred?

What a terrible thing this was!

"Zhou Han, what a coincidence. I actually met you on the Godfiend Continent?" Han Xiangning asked.

Seeing that Zhou Han was still alive, she was undoubtedly the happiest.

Ads by Pubfuture

She was prepared to greet him previously, but there were Fire Wolves attacking, so she didn't have the chance.

"It's indeed quite a coincidence!" Zhou Han said with a smile. After all, not everyone had entered the Godfiend Continent.

Han Xiangning was their school belle. Her family background was very powerful. She was fair, rich, beautiful, and had long legs.

The two of them had crossed paths at school before so their relationship was alright. They were considered acquaintances.

"Is there anything else?"

"If not, I have to hurry up and farm monsters!" Zhou Han had no intention of catching up. It was better to obtain enhancement points.

After all, the SSS-rank talent, Infinite Enhancement, was the foundation of his strength.

"Ah, you're leaving so soon?" Han Xiangning was already prepared to chat.

"Zhou Han! I'm Xiangning's sister! My name is Han Qinxue!"

"Well, we were hoping to form a team with you!"

"Can you consider it?" Han Qinxue hurriedly said when she saw that Zhou Han was about to leave.

After all, the strength that Zhou Han displayed was so powerful. With his protection, the two sisters would be much safer.

In this world, not only were there wild monsters attacking, but many male players coveted them very much.

After all, they were all top-notch beauties. Not many men could resist them.

"This… I'm used to farming alone. I'm more at ease!" Zhou Han smiled and directly rejected.

After all, although the two beauties were pleasing to the eye, they did not seem to be of much use.

They were no different from being a burden. It would affect his farming speed.

"Zhou Han! Please, bring us along!" Han Xiangning pleaded pitifully with an expectant gaze.

"That's right! One of our talents is Hearing Enhancement, and the other is Vision Enhancement. We can definitely be useful to you!"

"After all, your energy is limited!"

"We can help you analyze where the wild monsters are and where the danger is!"

"There are also some rare natural treasures that are difficult to find. We can help you find them!" Han Qinxue listed many benefits at once.

Indeed, their talent was relatively weak in combat, but they could play a supporting role.

Zhou Han was not charmed by their beauty, but he felt that what they said made sense.

"System! If I form a team, how will the experience points be distributed?" Hence, he asked in his heart.

[In a team situation, experience points are distributed according to contribution.]

[If a teammate's contribution is zero, they can still be allocated 1% of the team's experience.]

Hearing this, Zhou Han was relieved. In that case, the loss of experience points would not be too serious.

Now, with the help of two beautiful women, it was also very good.

"Zhou Han, it's too dangerous here. We trust you, but we don't trust anyone else!" Han Xiangning continued.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and find the monsters!" Zhou Han ordered.

"Zhou Han, you agreed to lead us?"

"That's great!"

The sisters immediately cheered and were extremely happy. With such a powerful backer, they immediately felt much safer.

As for the other teammates, they withdrew tactfully and automatically.

Zhou Han was not familiar with him, so he would definitely not bring him along.

After forming the team, Zhou Han brought the sisters and started farming.

"Zhou Han, I heard dogs barking. There are a lot of wild monsters over there!"

Soon, the sisters were proven useful. Han Xiangning used her talent and provided an accurate assessment.

"Excellent!"

After arriving at the location, Zhou Han saw a group of Ground Scales Dogs.

Without hesitation, he rushed over and quickly cleaned up.

Zhou Han was very satisfied with this outcome. The sisters were still useful.

With their cooperation, the few of them gradually had a tacit understanding. Zhou Han was also very happy.

These Level 1 dire beasts were no match for him at all. Even if they encountered a group of dire beasts, they could not stop Zhou Han.

"Zhou Han, you're too fierce! These dire beasts can't fight back at all!"

Now, the two sisters finally saw Zhou Han's strength. He was completely like a bulldozer, pushing all the way. Han Xiangning's eyes were filled with admiration.

"How is it? Have you fallen in love with me?" Zhou Han teased.

"I—I—" 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Han Xiangning immediately blushed and stammered shyly.

In her impression, Zhou Han was very cold. She didn't expect such words from him.

However, Han Xiangning did not seem to dislike this feeling.

"Ahem…"

Han Qinxue coughed at the right time.

He actually teased her sister in front of her. Sure enough, good-looking boys were all bad boys.

Zhou Han also realized that he had gone overboard and was warned by her sister.

He had been very serious before, mainly because Han Xiangning was too beautiful and he couldn't help but want to tease her.

Putting away his thoughts, Zhou Han looked at his experience bar.

His current progress was at Level 1, 91%. He would be leveling up soon.

"Looks like I have to find some higher-level dire beasts!"

Level 1 dire beasts had too little experience and could not drop anything good. Moreover, it was not challenging for Zhou Han at all.

His current strength completely allowed him to challenge more powerful wild monsters.

"Zhou Han, according to the system prompt, the deeper into the Fog Forest, the stronger the monsters are!"

"Well, let's go deeper!"

Soon, as the three of them went deeper, the wild monsters in the Fog Forest became much stronger.

"Zhou Han, there's a cave ahead. We've discovered the whereabouts of a Level 2 dire beast." Han Qinxue stood at a high point and activated her Vision Enhancement talent. After searching, she hurriedly reported.

After hearing Han Qinxue's words, they immediately perked up.

Heading directly in the indicated direction, they finally found a dark cavern ahead.

There were a few small snakes at the entrance, lazily basking in the sun.

It was obvious that they were not to be trifled with.

Through appraisal, Zhou Han quickly saw their attributes.

[Green-Scaled Snake]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Level: 2]

[Health: 310]

[Attack: 43]

[Defense: 29]

[Skill: Snake Venom (Spray venom and hit a single target. For 5 seconds, lose 30 HP per second. Cooldown: 40 seconds)]

[Description: Very toxic. Recommended to prepare HP potions.]

As expected, Level 2 wild monsters were much stronger than Level 1.

However, Zhou Han, who had the healing effect, did not take this poison seriously.

"Stand back! This poison is not something you can deal with!"

Zhou Han immediately warned them to stay away from this place.

After all, their HP was still 100. Once they were poisoned, they would die.

Of course, the sisters knew how powerful he was. Even without Zhou Han's reminder, they stayed far away from him. They just had to leave the damage dealing to him and assist from the back.

Level 1 dire beasts were already very difficult to deal with, let alone Level 2 dire beasts.

After seeing them leave, Zhou Han quietly sneaked over.

He slashed at one of the Green-Scaled Snakes.

The five Green-Scaled Snakes in front of him instantly reacted and immediately released their venom at Zhou Han.

-150

He lost 150 HP in an instant, but Zhou Han did not panic. After a second, his HP automatically recovered.

After the fourth basic attack, a sword aura instantly flew out and exploded in the surroundings.

-300

-300

The Green-Scaled Snakes were in pieces, and there were two left with very little blood.

Zhou Han seized the opportunity and directly harvested them all.

[System notification: Congratulations, you have successfully killed the Green-Scaled Snake. You have received 2 enhancement points, 5 experience points, and 20 copper coins.]

...

The system prompts came in rapid succession.

[Congratulations, you have successfully advanced to Level 2 and obtained 20 enhancement points. New personal attributes have been updated. Please check!]

"Phew! I've finally leveled up!" Zhou Han was very happy.

Just as he was about to check his upgraded attributes, his eyes lit up.

He was in luck this time. Finally, a piece of equipment dropped.

Chapter 9: Snake Skin War Boots, Bronze-Grade Wild Monster

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han flipped over the Green-Scaled Snake's corpse with his iron sword.

The equipment underneath was revealed.

It was a pair of shoes.

After picking it up, the attribute data also appeared on the virtual interface.

[Snake Skin War Boots]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Attributes: Movement Speed +1]

[Description: Shoes made from snake skin. Nothing amazing.]

"Enhance twice," Zhou Han muttered to himself. He had some enhancement points on hand, which were still enough.

[You have activated the Talent—Infinite Enhancement. You have successfully enhanced your 'Snake Skin War Boots' twice. Please check the attributes.]

[Snake Skin War Boots +2]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Type: Battle Boots Equipment]

[Attributes: Movement Speed+20, HP+100]

[Special Effect 1: There is a 10% chance of being immune to a single speed reduction skill. After successfully being immune, the skill will enter cooldown for 1 hour.]

[Special Effect 2: In combat, movement speed increases by 50%.]

[Description: Ordinary shoes that reveal extraordinariness. Slithering movement can be achieved.]

Wow.

It provided a lot of movement speed.

Wouldn't he take off now?

Zhou Han suppressed his excitement and continued reading.

For Special Effect 1, he could be immune to speed reduction skills, but the probability was only 10%.

It was probably never triggering.

Special Effect 2 was quite good. It increased movement speed in combat.

This was good. Who wouldn't like to move fast in battle?

He could use the advantage of speed to attack the enemy.

Even if he couldn't win, he could still run away. It was really invincible.

Zhou Han immediately took off his shoes and changed into the [Snake Skin War Boots +2].

He took two slow steps but it felt like jogging at his usual pace.

Then he ran a few steps and was shocked.

'I'm twice as fast as Bolt now!'

Zhou Han felt comfortable.

This was what it felt like to fly!

After packing everything, Zhou Han checked his attributes after leveling up.

[Player: Zhou Han]

[Level: 2 (0.1%)]

[Class: None (Class Change at Level 10)]

[Health: 150+300]

[Attack: 20+90]

[Defense: 3+50]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]

[Weapon: Iron Sword +2]

[Equipment: Cotton Robe +2, Snake Skin War Boots +2]

After reaching Level 2, because he had not changed his class, the attributes he gained were not much.

His health limit had increased by 50 points compared to before. Including the equipment bonus, he had 450 HP.

His basic attack power also increased by 10 points, reaching 110 points.

Defense increased by 3 points, reaching 53 points.

With such combat power at Level 2, it was terrifying.

"Huh? There are many wild monsters in this cave!"

After checking his attributes, he was about to leave.

Zhou Han realized that there were still shadows moving inside and realized that this was the nest of the Green-Scaled Snakes.

In addition to the five Green-Scaled Snakes that had been killed in the cave, there was a large gathering in the cave.

He was delighted. These were all enhancement points!

Of course, he wouldn't just march straight in. Who knew how many monsters were in there?

If there were a lot of them, he would not be able to withstand their concentrated firepower.

As expected, there were more than 200 Green-Scaled Snakes in the cave, making Zhou Han's scalp tingle.

Fortunately, he did not act impulsively. Otherwise, he might really have been poisoned.

In addition, there was a movement speed bonus in the combat state.

With his rapidly shifting movement, he dealt damage consistently.

This is the great advantage of speed.

The Green-Scaled Snakes could only stick out their tongues and grimace anxiously.

They did not have the ability to slow down and could not restrict Zhou Han.

There was nothing they could do when he was untouchable.

As he listened to the system's continuous notifications and his enhancement points rising, Zhou Han was overjoyed.

"Whew…"

More than two hundred Green-Scaled Snakes were killed in a few minutes.

It was very disappointing not to see a single piece of equipment. The drop rate was really low.

Suddenly, a huge snake as thick as a bowl emerged from the darkness and whipped Zhou Han.

A huge force came, and Zhou Han immediately felt a burning pain in his body.

-142

-90

"Damn, it's a sneak attack. How dishonorable."

Moreover, the damage was so high that it was beyond Zhou Han's expectations.

In an instant, he lost more than 200 HP. The monsters he had encountered previously did not have such damage output.

Zhou Han immediately saw the wild monster in front of him clearly. It looked a little like the Green-Scaled Snake, but its aura was even more ferocious.

This fellow had been hiding in the shadows just now, so Zhou Han did not notice its existence at all.

It was presumably waiting for him to lower his guard and launch its strongest attack.

[Golden-Scaled Snake]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Level: 3]

[Health: 760]

[Attack: 200]

[Defense: 46]

[Skill: Poison (Spray poison and hit a single target. For 7 seconds, lose 90 HP per second. Cooldown: 30 seconds)]

[Description: The leader of the Green-Scaled Snakes. It's very poisonous. It's recommended that you prepare HP potions.]

Zhou Han took a look. Good lord, it was even Bronze-grade.

Its various attributes were much stronger than the Green-Scaled Snake.

Its HP had reached 760, and its attack power was 200 points.

If other players encountered it, they would only be insta-killed.

However, it was still not enough to beat Zhou Han.

At this moment, Zhou Han was poisoned.

However, with the effect of recovering 200 HP every second, it was not a big problem.

"Mere beast, how dare you ambush me? Die!"

Zhou Han raised his iron sword and slashed wildly.

He had no choice since he did not have any skills now. He could only rely on basic attacks.

The Golden-Scaled Snake was also very surprised. It did not expect the Level 2 human in ordinary equipment would actually be fine after being hit by its skill.

However, it no longer had a chance. Zhou Han triggered two sword aura slashes.

The fierce attack penetrated its body.

It fell to the ground and twitched for a few seconds, completely dead.

[Regional Announcement: Player Zhou Han has successfully killed a Bronze-grade monster and completed the first kill. Reward: 10 gold coins and 1 bronze treasure chest.]

"Who is this Zhou Han? He can actually kill a Bronze-grade monster."

"Oh my God, that's so cool! I want to cozy up to him!"

"What kind of talent does Zhou Han have?! We can't even defeat a Level 1 ordinary monster. He's too exaggerated."

"Maybe he was lucky and encountered a Bronze-grade monster with low health!"

"I agree. It must have been a lucky break. Such blind luck!"

"Ah, you must be jealous! Why didn't you have the luck to find one?"

As soon as the regional announcement was made, the chat area instantly exploded.

Everyone was discussing who Zhou Han was and what talent he had.

Some admired his strength, while others thought that he was lucky.

Ads by Pubfuture

However, Zhou Han did not know this. Even if he did, he did not care.

Strength was the law on the Godfiend Continent. As long as one was strong enough, one's words were the truth.

[Yang Mi requested to add you as a friend.]

[Dai Mei requested to add you as a friend.]

[Chen Beixuan requested to add you as a friend.]

...

He kept hearing the system beep in his ear.

Zhou Han was so annoyed that he quickly turned off the notification. It was too noisy.

"Damn, so many people are applying to add me as a friend!"

It seemed that triggering the regional announcement had a lot of influence.

Chapter 10: Three Leaf Necklace, Heart Protecting Lotus

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After all, Zhou Han was the first person to trigger the announcement. Many people had different motives and wanted to add him as a friend.

Zhou Han casually opened a few applications.

"Zhou Han, you're not bad. You're qualified to be my good friend."

Zhou Han was speechless. This guy was too childish. He directly rejected him.

"Big brother, carry me. I'm very flexible as I specialize in yoga. This is a photo of me in my private room."

Zhou Han opened the pictures and took a look. They were all unclothed and indecent pictures.

'Well, she's in good shape, but that's all.'

Zhou Han had two beauties by his side. How could these ordinary women enter his eyes?

Ads by Pubfuture

He immediately rejected it and clicked on the report button. He wondered if it would be useful.

After reading a few more applications, Zhou Han immediately lost interest.

They were all people who wanted to cozy up to him and invite him to join their teams.

Zhou Han made the system automatically reject all of them.

Of course, there were some sarcastic ones who were directly blocked.

After everything was settled, Zhou Han began to check the rewards.

10 gold coins and a bronze treasure chest had already appeared in the system package.

Through the auxiliary system, he learned there were all kinds of treasure chests in the Godfiend Continent that could be opened.

These treasure chests were also divided into grades, similar to the grades of wild monsters.

Bronze, Silver… etc.

Anything could be opened from a treasure chest. The higher the quality of the treasure chest, the higher the probability of obtaining something good.

Zhou Han immediately looked forward to it. He wondered if he would be lucky enough to get a high-quality item.

"Can the bronze treasure chest be enhanced?" Zhou Han suddenly asked.

[Of course, it can be enhanced, but the effect won't change much. I suggest that you don't waste your enhancement points!]

[Enhance the item you get instead!]

Zhou Han nodded. "Open the bronze treasure chest."

[System prompt: You have opened the bronze treasure chest.]

[Congratulations. You have obtained an accessory: Three Leaf Necklace.]

"Hmm? I got an accessory. I'm lucky, but I don't know what quality it is."

If the drop rate of equipment was low, the drop rate of accessories was 1% of the equipment. It was even lower.

Zhou Han could not wait to check the attributes.

[Three Leaf Necklace]

[Grade: Silver]

[Attributes: Attack+20]

[Special Effect: Absorbs 300 points of damage.]

[Description: Made of three-leaf clover and has good protective abilities.]

The bronze treasure chest had Silver-grade equipment. It could be said to be very awesome.

Moreover, silver-grade accessories had their own special effects without enhancement.

It was both offensive and defensive. It could be said to be a very comprehensive buff.

"Enhance twice!"

[You have activated Talent—Infinite Enhancement and successfully enhanced it twice. Please check the attributes.]

The enhancement points required for high-grade equipment also increased correspondingly.

[Three Leaf Necklace +2]

[Grade: Silver]

[Attributes: Attack+100]

[Special Effect 1: Absorbs 2,000 points of damage.]

[Special Effect 2: Increases poison resistance by 50%.]

[Description: Both offensive and defensive. An excellent accessory.]

After reading the description, Zhou Han smiled.

Its attack power directly reached 100 points, and it could also absorb 2,000 damage.

The new special effect was poison resistance. In the future, he would be able to deal with poison-type monsters with ease.

"Zhou Han, aren't you too handsome? You killed a Bronze-grade monster?"

Han Xiangning hurried over with a look of joy. She had obviously heard the notification.

"I've always been handsome. Did you just find out today?"

"…"

Ads by Pubfuture

"I'm so happy. My sister and I both advanced to Level 2."

"This is all thanks to Zhou Han. Otherwise, how could we have leveled up so easily?"

Han Qinxue looked at Zhou Han with gratitude.

She sighed in her heart that she was lucky to have encountered such a powerful character like Zhou Han.

Zhou Han's current experience had also reached 89% of Level 2.

"I'm so happy. It's good to be with Zhou Han!"

Han Xiangning's smiling eyes were like crescent moons. The feeling of lying down and leveling up was too comfortable.

"Let's go and continue looking for wild monsters. Let's try to reach Level 10 as soon as possible."

The two women nodded and hurriedly followed Zhou Han into the depths of the forest.

After killing many wild monsters, Zhou Han's level also reached Level 3.

He discovered that the greater the level difference of the monster, the more experience he would obtain.

...

"Zhou Han, there's something good!"

"I've found a natural treasure!" Han Qinxue said excitedly. Her expression was very excited, as could be seen from her majestic and undulating mountains.

"What? We actually found a natural treasure!"

"Qinxue, you're really awesome!" Zhou Han was also very happy.

One had to know that the effects of natural treasures were all natural and had powerful attributes.

If he could consume it, his attributes would definitely increase greatly. If he wanted to encounter it, he would need luck.

That was why Zhou Han was so happy.

Soon the three of them stopped near a pool.

According to Han Qinxue's hint, they really found spiritual fruits in the pool.

When Zhou Han approached, he indeed smelled a natural fragrance that made him feel relaxed.

There was something like a lily pad growing in it.

If not for Han Qinxue's good eyesight, they would not have discovered it. This place was too hidden.

Therefore, it was quite good to have them as support.

Zhou Han activated Appraisal and quickly saw the relevant introduction.

[Heart Protecting Lotus]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Type: Spiritual Fruit Item]

[Effect: After consumption, HP +100.]

[Description: Everyone can only take it once. The effects cannot be stacked.]

It was indeed a good thing. It could actually increase HP by 100.

In this dangerous world, the higher his life value, the more at ease he felt.

Zhou Han was about to pluck the Heart Protecting Lotus when someone suddenly shouted.

"What are you doing? Don't move. We found this out first."

Soon, four people came from the side and looked greedily at the Heart Protecting Lotus in the pool.

In their team, there was someone with a talent related to smell.

He happened to be passing by and smelled the strange fragrance.

Then, curious, he walked over and saw the Heart Protecting Lotus in the pool.

He instantly realized that this was a natural treasure, and his heart was filled with excitement.

Coincidentally, Zhou Han was also preparing to pluck it, which was why this happened.

"You noticed it first? I didn't see you around before I got here!" Zhou Han frowned and said patiently.

He had to find out what had happened first. He wasn't unreasonable.

"Are you questioning us, boy?"

The leader's voice was cold.

Ads by Pubfuture

Seeing that Zhou Han was alone, he was delighted.

There were four people on his side, so he could easily handle this guy.

"Be sensible and hand over the spiritual fruit. Our patience is limited."

"Don't be bloody ungrateful. This isn't Earth. Get out of here if you don't want to die."

The few team members beside him were already tempted. They looked at Zhou Han with obvious ill intentions.

"Hehe, are you threatening me? I'll give you one last chance. Get out of my sight in ten seconds before I change my mind." Zhou Han wanted to laugh and said lightly.

"Boy, you talk big."

The leader's pupils constricted when he saw how calm Zhou Han was.

The other party looked fearless so it made him start to wonder.

Was he really someone powerful?

Chapter 11: Belle Han's Kiss

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Just as the leader was hesitating, the remaining three teammates began to egg him on.

"Boss, just snatch them! Why waste your breath on him?"

"He's only one man. No matter how strong he is, can he beat the four of us?"

"Those are spiritual fruits. After consuming one, we'll directly take off and dominate the entire region!"

It was exciting to think of dominating the entire region.

When the time came, wealth and beauties would all be his.

When the leader heard this, he became overwhelmed with greed and couldn't care less anymore.

"You two go at him together, one on the left and one on the right. Just kill him!"

Ads by Pubfuture

He ordered directly, drawing his long blade.

The two team members hurriedly held their weapons and looked at Zhou Han cruelly.

Zhou Han only shook his head. As expected, the other party still chose to die.

"Die, boy! You can only blame yourself for being so tactless!"

"The spiritual fruits are not something you can have!"

Two iron sabers slashed at Zhou Han.

Clang!

Two metallic clangs sounded.

Zhou Han used his iron sword to slash at the iron sabers on both sides.

Immediately, the two iron sabers broke like rotten wood.

"Die!"

Fear appeared on their faces as Zhou Han's iron sword slashed over again.

He killed one of them instantly.

"I—ah!"

One of the remaining men was about to say something but Zhou Han had already raised his sword and slashed at him. He died without a chance to speak.

"Wh-what?"

"What the hell is going on?"

The leader saw this and peed his pants.

Insta-kill?

How did it happen?

Could it be that the other party's attack power had already exceeded 100?

What kind of freak was this?

He was too unlucky to have provoked such a jinx.

"Right, escape!"

He reacted instantly from the shock. If he didn't run, he would be killed instantly.

He scrambled away into the distance.

The other team member, on the other hand, was either too scared to move or too slow to react.

He stood there trembling, not daring to move. He was also insta-killed by Zhou Han.

"Hmph. Can you escape?"

Against Zhou Han's movement speed, this person was completely in slow motion.

Zhou Han jogged a few steps easily and instantly arrived in front of him.

"How—how can you be so fast?"

The leader looked up and saw Zhou Han in front of him with a cold smile.

He trembled in fear and fell to the ground.

"I was blind. I was wrong. Let me go. Please!"

This person was also decisive. He lay on the ground and kowtowed desperately.

"You talk too much. Die!"

There was no pity in Zhou Han's eyes as he ended his life with a single strike.

Since the other party wanted to kill him, he would not be merciful.

Such a person deserved to die. He probably wasn't a good person on Earth.

"What a bunch of paupers. All he has is a wrist guard."

Zhou Han searched around. He originally wanted to get a few pieces of equipment.

In the end, only the leader was wearing a wrist guard. The others had nothing.

After pulling it off forcefully, he checked its attributes.

A piece of Ordinary equipment that only added 2 defense points. There was nothing special about it.

"Three enhancements."

Zhou Han had hundreds of enhancement points on him now. He wanted to see the effect of the enhancement after three times.

[The material of Ordinary equipment is too poor. The enhancement limit is two times. Please choose equipment with a quality above bronze.]

Could it only be enhanced twice?

Zhou Han did not expect such restrictions.

It seemed like Ordinary equipment was not good enough to obtain higher-quality equipment.

He chose again.

[You have activated Talent—Infinite Enhancement. Enhancement successful. Please check the attributes.]

[Thick Iron Wrist Guard +2]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Type: Bracer Armor]

[Attributes: Defense+30, HP+100]

[Special Effect 1: When your health is below 100%, you will recover 200 HP per second.]

[Special Effect 2: Damage taken is reduced by 10%.]

[Description: Forged from crude iron. Rough workmanship. Average defense.]

Zhou Han took a look. There were two special effects.

One recovered HP and the other reduced damage. They were both okay.

He immediately put it on to increase his defense and health.

It made Zhou Han feel that his body was much stronger again, a feeling of abundant strength.

After dealing with it, Zhou Han walked to the pool.

He plucked the Heart Protecting Lotuses.

There were a total of seven lotuses. Zhou Han put the remaining six into his spatial bag.

Just as he was about to consume it, he suddenly remembered that he did not know if spiritual fruits could be enhanced.

Infinite Enhancement was said to be able to enhance everything.

"Enhance the Heart Protecting Lotus!"

Zhou Han decided to give it a try.

Sure enough, the powerful SSS talent did not disappoint him.

Zhou Han continued to enhance it twice, and then its attributes appeared on the interface.

[Heart Protecting Lotus +3]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Type: Spiritual Fruit Item]

[Effect: After consumption, HP+1,500.]

[Description: Everyone can only take it once. The effects cannot be stacked.]

Damn, that was impressive.

The increase in HP went from 100 to 1,500. This was a fifteen-fold increase.

Smelling the alluring fragrance, Zhou Han almost drooled and swallowed it.

[You used the Heart Protecting Lotus. You gained 1,500 HP.]

A surge of energy flowed through Zhou Han's body.

It made Zhou Han feel comfortable. Now, Zhou Han felt that he could fight a Level 10 wild monster alone.

After slowly adapting to this power, Zhou Han enhanced two of the [Heart Protecting Lotuses] twice.

This was for the sisters. After all, it was all thanks to Han Qinxue that they discovered it.

Otherwise, Zhou Han would not have missed such a good thing.

Therefore, it was reasonable for them to take it.

Besides, if their strength increased, it would be easier for him.

Now that Zhou Han had barely any enhancement points left, he could only enhance them twice.

Although +2 was not as exaggerated as the +3 enhancement that gave 1,500 HP, it could still raise 800 HP.

This was also a very terrifying improvement.

After dealing with it, Zhou Han came to their hidden location.

It couldn't be helped. They were too weak now. If they encountered wild monsters, it would be very dangerous.

"Hey, you two, come out! It's time to work!"

Zhou Han came to where the sisters were hiding and shouted.

At the sound of voices, the sisters emerged, rolling their eyes.

"Zhou Han, how was it? Did you gain anything?"

Han Qinxue was the first to ask.

"It's indeed spiritual fruits, and the improvement after consuming it is very obvious."

"What is it? Tell me now!"

"You want to know, don't you? Come and open your mouth!"

Zhou Han said to Han Xiangning.

After all, it was all thanks to them that they found the Heart Protecting Lotuses. It was only right for Zhou Han to reward them.

Moreover, everyone could only use one each. Zhou Han could not eat the rest.

"What? You're being mysterious. Are you teasing us?"

Although Han Xiangning was complaining, she still obediently opened her small mouth.

She blushed slightly. 'Is he going to feed me?'

Looking at her now, it was very tempting to think of something bad.

Zhou Han shook his head, shaking off the thoughts in his mind.

He placed a [Heart Protecting Lotus +2] into Han Xiangning's mouth.

It melted in her mouth, soft and sweet.

Soon, Han Xiangning's expression changed from confusion to surprise and finally to joy.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Ah… It actually increased my HP total by 800."

Han Xiangning's eyes flickered with joy and excitement.

"Thank you, Zhou Han,?muack…"

Zhou Han immediately felt a soft kiss on his cheek.

It was very fast. Before Zhou Han could react, they separated.

Zhou Han subconsciously touched it and instantly understood.

This was Belle Han taking the initiative to kiss him!

'Not bad, not bad. You've improved. I'll continue to tease you in the future.'

He had to get her to throw herself at him.

Zhou Han immediately felt happy.

Chapter 12: Swordsman Lynn, Mission Triggered

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After the kiss, Han Xiangning reacted.

Her face was so red that it was about to explode.

She was too happy just now and kissed Zhou Han without thinking too much.

In retrospect, her heart pounded like a deer.

'Goodness, I can't believe I did that.'

Her sister was beside her the entire time. It was so embarrassing.

It was completely unlike her usual ladylike behavior.

Zhou Han was about to tease her.

Ads by Pubfuture

But seeing her now, he gave up. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Then, he gave the other [Heart Protecting Lotus +2] to Han Qinxue.

Although the other party was now dressed in a female suit and black stockings, the mature sexiness she exuded was extremely attractive.

However, Zhou Han did not tease her. After all, he was not very familiar with her.

He could joke with Han Xiangning, but not with her.

It was very rude to act frivolously.

Han Qinxue took it with a smile. After nodding politely at Zhou Han, she swallowed it.

Seconds later, the effect was apparent.

Although she was not as shocked as Han Xiangning, she did not say much.

But through her proud, heaving chest, one could understand how unsettled she felt.

Han Qinxue looked at Zhou Han with gratitude.

She knew that even if she was the one who provided the information about this spiritual fruit, if Zhou Han did not share it with them, they had no way to force him.

Moreover, this spiritual fruit could give 800 HP.

If he shouted in the chat area, there were definitely countless women who would pay any price to obtain it.

However, Zhou Han did not do so. Instead, he gave it to them for free.

Although he liked to tease them, he was indeed a good man to be entrusted with.

If he really was with his sister, it was indeed the perfect outcome.

She immediately envied her sister.

Looking at the two beautiful who had grateful expressions, Zhou Han did not say anything and only smiled calmly.

He opened his attributes and looked at them.

[Player: Zhou Han]

[Level: 3. Level (79%)]

[Class: None (Class Change at Level 10)]

[Health: 1,700+400]

[Attack: 30+190]

[Defense: 5+80]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]

[Weapon: Iron Sword +2]

[Accessory: Three Leaf Necklace +2]

[Equipment: Cotton Robe +2, Snake Skin War Boots +2, Thick Iron Wrist Guard +2]

His total health was now 2,100 points, and his attack power was 220 points.

He could challenge higher-level monsters now.

After tidying up, the group continued to farm monsters.

"Eh, there's someone standing in the dense forest ahead. It's so strange that he's not moving."

Han Qinxue's eyesight noticed something unusual and reported it to Zhou Han.

"Be careful. The guy could be a pro."

After all, those who dared to act alone in the Fog Forest were either fools or masters.

"Young Hero, I see that you have extraordinary roots and talent. There is something here that I ask of you."

When Zhou Han approached, he saw that the other party was a middle-aged man with a weathered face.

Before the trio could speak, he praised Zhou Han.

Hmm? Could it be an NPC in the wild?

Above the middle-aged uncle's head was displayed "Swordsman Lynn".

Not knowing what would trigger it, Zhou Han tried to make contact.

"Uncle, please speak your mind!"

He began to talk.

"My Lin Family Sword Technique is superb and unparalleled. Ever since the ancestral sword was lost, it has already declined and is no longer as glorious as before."

"So, do you want me to help you recover the Sword?"

Zhou Han guessed.

"Hehe, it's not that easy to find! I'm just short of some materials and need you to help me gather them. Don't worry, I won't let you work for nothing."

After hearing Lynn's words, Zhou Han was speechless.

This NPC was not playing by the rules. Since he wasn't looking for a sword, why was he talking so much?

But as Lynn finished speaking, the system spoke.

[Mission detected: Material Collection 1. Do you accept?]

Not bad. He'd actually triggered a mission.

It was a pleasant surprise. Zhou Han immediately chose to accept it.

Soon, a mission system appeared on the interface. Zhou Han directly opened it.

[Material Collection 1]

[Description: Kill the Steel-Armored Pigs and collect 100 Steel Armors. Hand it to Lynn.]

[Progress: 0/100]

[Location: Fog Forest (Coordinates: …)]

It briefly recorded information about the mission.

Most importantly, there were location coordinates. Very convenient.

Otherwise, Zhou Han would be like a headless fly.

"Uncle, don't worry! I'll collect them all soon. Wait for me here."

"You have to be careful, young hero. The Steel-Armored Pig is not easy to deal with," Lynn spoke earnestly.

Zhou Han had just taken two steps when he turned around to talk to Lynn.

He wanted to try and see if he could accept other missions.

'Don't bite off more than you can chew. We'll talk about the rest after we've done this!' As a result, Lynn snapped at him.

It seemed that no other scenario would be triggered until this mission was completed.

Zhou Han shook his head and led the two women towards the Steel-Armored Pigs.

They were only about a kilometer from their destination.

After clearing some wild monsters along the way, they quickly arrived.

A herd of Steel-Armored Pigs was chasing and fighting in their territory.

Their bodies were covered in thick steel armor. When they collided, there were many sparks.

[Steel-Armored Pig]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Level: 8]

[Health: 560]

[Attack: 160]

[Defense: 80]

[Skill: Brutal Charge (The Steel-Armored Pig charges and deals 2x attack damage to a single target. Cooldown: 40 seconds)]

[Description: High defense, great strength, not to be provoked.]

"This Steel-Armored Pig's defense is really high!"

"It's also reached Level 8. It doesn't seem easy to kill."

"I wonder if its meat tastes good. I haven't eaten anything yet!"

"You little foodie. All you do is eat."

Zhou Han scratched Han Xiangning's nose and said with a smile.

"Hmph! You're making fun of me again!"

What greeted Zhou Han was a weak fist.

With that said, he also felt a little hungry. After all, this was the real world.

His current level was too low, and he had not reached the realm of not needing food.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Sure. After we finish our mission, we'll make a barbecue and let you eat your fill."

After saying that, Zhou Han began to implement the battle plan.

There were more than 100 Steel-Armored Pigs here.

If the other party rushed up together, even Zhou Han would not be able to withstand it.

Therefore, it was definitely irrational to fight head-on.

To complete the mission, he would have to separate them and break them into groups.

This was the same as luring mobs in online games.

As long as he pulled a portion of the wild monsters every time, Zhou Han could easily deal with them.

"Xiangning, I have a difficult task for you now."

Han Xiangning pointed at herself in confusion and asked uncertainly, "Ah! Me? What mission?"

Chapter 13: Belle Han Was Sent Flying by a Pig

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Seeing Zhou Han nod, Han Xiangning was both happy and afraid.

She was happy that she was no longer useless and could do something for the team now.

What she was afraid of was that the Steel-Armored Pigs were very strong and there were many of them.

It was obvious that they were not to be trifled with. If she made a mistake, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Don't worry, I'm here. I won't let anything happen to you!"

As if seeing the concern in Han Xiangning's heart, Zhou Han stroked her soft hair, giving her courage.

Now that the two sisters had nearly a thousand HP, their survivability was greatly enhanced.

Even if there was danger, in the end, Zhou Han would protect them.

Of course, Zhou Han could pull the monsters himself, but he had his own considerations.

First, he wanted to cultivate the combat awareness of the two sisters.

At least, they had to have some courage.

Only through experience could one adapt to the environment of this dangerous world and grow.

Second, as the team's main output, he had to conserve his energy to avoid any unknown accidents.

Zhou Han hid behind a big tree and nodded at Han Xiangning, indicating that he was ready.

At this moment, Han Xiangning picked up two stones from the ground and called out to the Steel-Armored Pigs.

Although their defenses were strong, they did not feel pain.

However, the person who provoked them was actually a low-level human.

They immediately responded.

The five Steel-Armored Pigs closest to them charged forward.

"Ah…"

"Zhou Han, hit them!"

Seeing this, Han Xiangning screamed in fear and quickly fled.

Fortunately, she was a little faster than the Steel-Armored Pigs, so she couldn't be caught.

"Don't be nervous. I'm attacking!"

Zhou Han comforted her.

Appearing from behind the tree, he attacked the Steel-Armored Pigs…

Clang!

After the sword aura was triggered, the Steel-Armored Pigs fell to the ground.

Zhou Han clapped his hands.

He easily settled the battle.

The next few times, Han Xiangning became more and more proficient.

She pulled more and more Steel-Armored Pigs.

Indeed, as long as she was given a chance to practice, she would grow up instantly.

Soon, more than half of the hundred Steel-Armored Pigs were cleared.

Zhou Han was very satisfied when he saw this. In the future, he could call Han Xiangning "a little expert at pulling monsters".

This way, the two sisters could be of use, and the efficiency of killing monsters would greatly increase.

Hmm? Something's wrong?

"Xiangning, come back quickly!"

Han Qinxue immediately reminded her after using her Vision Enhancement.

At this moment, Han Xiangning was so excited that she did not notice the approaching danger.

Beside the bushes, a larger boar, glowing silver, charged out.

It was similar to the Steel-Armored Pig but much stronger.

It attacked Han Xiangning, one step ahead of her.

When Zhou Han saw the attributes of the wild monsters, he quickly ran over.

[Silver-Armored Pig]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Level: 10]

[Life: 700]

[Attack: 200]

[Defense: 100]

[Skill: Berserk Attack: Causes 2.2 times the attack damage. Cooldown: 30 seconds.]

[Description: Leader of the Steel-Armored Pigs, relatively strong.]

It was a Bronze-grade wild monster. Its attributes were not something ordinary wild monsters could compare to.

Its skill, Berserk Attack, could instantly deal 440 damage.

Even if Han Xiangning had close to 1,000 HP, she couldn't take more than a few hits. It was very dangerous.

At this moment, Han Xiangning was sent flying three meters away by the Silver-Armored Pig.

-440

"Ouch, it hurts. It's coming at us again."

Seeing that the Silver-Armored Pig had attacked again, Han Xiangning hurriedly shouted, "Zhou Han, save me!"

"Don't panic. Hide behind me!"

At this critical moment, Zhou Han stepped forward and stood in front of her.

The Silver-Armored Pig's eyes were filled with anger. It had just gone out for a while.

It did not expect its underlings to almost be wiped out.

Snort… Snort…

The Silver-Armored Pig snorted angrily. It wanted to tear apart the human in front of it.

Miss!

Miss!

The Silver-Armored Pig's two consecutive attacks were dodged.

Even Zhou Han sighed in his heart. This 20% chance of dodging had actually been triggered twice in a row.

"Die, you beast!"

Zhou Han was not afraid of the Silver-Armored Pig's charge.

He raised his iron sword and slashed down.

One slash, two…

He quickly triggered the poison effect. After counting in his mind for a few seconds, the Silver-Armored Pig fell to the ground.

[You have successfully reached Level 4 and obtained 40 enhancement points.]

As expected, killing monsters above his level gave him more experience.

Zhou Han looked at his enhancement points. Now that he had more than 500 points, he was immediately delighted.

'Hmm? Equipment dropped?'

'Not bad!'

[Mystic Light Robe]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Attributes: Defense+3, Health+10]

[Description: Purely handmade, average defense.]

Good lord!

There was also a sword!

This time, it was too awesome!

Two pieces of equipment dropped in a row.

Luck was indeed building up.

Previously, he had swept through hundreds of wild monsters and found nothing.

He wondered what quality the sword was.

Feeling hurried to pick it up to check.

[Fine Iron Sword]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Attributes: Attack+3, Critical Hit Rate+1%]

[Description: Refined iron forging, ordinary.]

Both were Bronze-grade but the attributes were very ordinary.

However, it didn't matter as Zhou Han had the Infinite Enhancement talent.

The upper limit of the Bronze-grade enhancement was three times.

After enhancing it three times, its attributes would definitely be very terrifying.

Zhou Han was looking forward to it.

"Enhance the Mystic Light Robe three times."

[You have activated Talent—Infinite Enhancement. Enhancement successful. Please check the attributes.]

[Mystic Light Robe +3]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Attributes: Defense+80, Health+500]

[Special Effect 1: When your health is below 100%, you will recover 500 HP per second.]

[Special Effect 2: There is a 40% chance to dodge ordinary attacks.]

[Description: The Bronze equipment is now a powerful layer of protection.]

After Zhou Han saw it, he was very happy. His defense and HP had greatly increased.

The HP recovery had also increased, and his chances of dodging had increased by 40%.

Then, Zhou Han used 222 points to enhance the iron sword three times.

[Fine Iron Sword +3]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Attributes: Attack+200, Critical Rate+6%]

[Special Effect 1: Every ordinary attack will deal 200 fire damage, and the target will inevitably enter a burning state. Under the burning state, the target will lose (2x Target's Defense) HP per second for 10 seconds.]

[Special Effect 2: When the target's health is lower than 20%, there is a 10% chance of being directly killed.]

[Description: This sword has an absolute restraining effect on targets with high defense.]

After reading it, Zhou Han exclaimed.

As long as a critical hit was triggered, the damage would be tripled.

Whether it was a basic attack or a skill, as long as it triggered a critical hit, it could stack critical damage.

Special Effect 1 burned through armor while Special Effect 2 had a direct killing chance. They were all very powerful attributes.

After tidying up, Han Xiangning's voice came from behind.

"Zhou Han, thank you for saving me. It was so dangerous just now!"

Zhou Han turned to look at Han Xiangning.

He was immediately dumbfounded because her clothes were in tatters after being attacked by the Silver-Armored Pig.

There was a lot to see from the hole and he could also vaguely observe the lace-edged bra. It gave a different feeling.

Unexpectedly, Han Xiangning was so well-developed.

Ads by Pubfuture

Previously, she had been wearing a loose-fitting school uniform, so he could not tell the exact situation. 𝑏𝘦𝑑𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮

It seemed to be quite big now, comparable to her sister, Han Qinxue.

"What—what are you looking at…?"

Seeing that Zhou Han was staring at her, she immediately said shyly.

Zhou Han hurriedly retracted his gaze and casually said, "Uh… I was thinking that Belle Han was actually sent flying by a pig. Hahaha…"

However, when he thought of Han Xiangning being sent flying by the Silver-Armored Pig, it was indeed quite funny.

Under normal circumstances, Zhou Han would not laugh unless he really could not help it.

"Do you want to die? How annoying! It hurts so much, but you still laugh at me!"

Han Xiangning rubbed her sore shoulder with an aggrieved expression, her eyes filled with resentment.

Really, he didn't know how to comfort a girl at all.

Chapter 14: Silver-Grade Technique, Lin Family Sword Technique

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Facing Han Xiangning's punches, Zhou Han pointed at his chest and said, "Stop it! I think you should change your clothes first!"

At this moment, due to Han Xiangning's actions, her clothes, which were already torn, could not bear the burden.

The two little lumps were about to fall out. Zhou Han's eyes widened in anticipation.

Such spring colors were indeed beautiful, but only for himself.

He did not want other men to see Han Xiangning like this.

After all, there were so many players in the Fog Forest.

Han Xiangning followed Zhou Han's gaze and saw her chest.

Her expression changed instantly.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Ah… you, turn around. Don't peek!"

Han Xiangning screamed and instantly realized that something was wrong. She immediately reacted.

She hastily covered it with her hand and spoke shyly.

"Okay, okay, okay. Here, put this shirt on!"

Zhou Han took off his Cotton Robe and handed it to her.

Then he turned very obligingly and stopped peeking.

"These attributes? They're so strong!"

After Han Xiangning put on her clothes, she discovered something special.

Her health and defense had greatly increased.

She did not expect this dark and inconspicuous robe to be so powerful.

Han Xiangning was touched that such a good thing was given to her.

When she thought about how Zhou Han had worn it before and how she was wearing it now, was this considered physical intimacy?!

Especially since Zhou Han's smell was still lingering on it, making her heart pound like a deer.

Zhou Han still had his back facing her. Seeing that Han Xiangning did not speak, he asked, "Are you done?"

How could he know that Han Xiangning was in a daze?

Her mind was filled with random thoughts.

Han Xiangning was instantly woken up and said hurriedly, "Oh, oh, I'm done, just turn around!"

"Even when you change your clothes, you can be so slow." Zhou Han complained speechlessly.

He then handed the [Iron Sword +2] to Han Qinxue.

Of course, Zhou Han had to be impartial.

"You'll give me such a powerful weapon? Then what will you use?"

Han Qinxue took the [Iron Sword +2] hesitantly.

After seeing the shocking attribute enhancement, she asked in a daze.

"Don't worry, I have a stronger weapon."

Something stronger?

Even this iron sword could increase attack power by 90 points.

How much stronger was his sword? She couldn't imagine.

Zhou Han's current strength was too terrifying!

It was simply unfathomable!

Zhou Han did not explain much. After changing his new equipment, he began to count the battlefield.

The two women were responsible for collecting mission-related materials.

Zhou Han cut the Silver-Armored Pig into pieces and started roasting it.

It just so happened that the fine iron sword had fire attribute damage.

Zhou Han slashed at the wood twice and quickly lit it up, saving him the trouble of buying flint in the shop.

"Wow, it smells so good! I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking, Zhou Han."

The two women had just finished packing up the materials. As they approached, they smelled barbecue.

"Of course. I'm the child of a poor family. I had to cook, unlike you carefree rich ladies."

Since junior high, Zhou Han had been cooking for himself. His skills were passable.

"Here, let me taste it! Ouch, it's hot…"

Soon, the three of them enjoyed their first meal on the Godfiend Continent.

They ate, drank, and rested for a while.

Then, they began to return to Lynn and submit the mission.

"Here are the materials you asked for, Uncle. I've collected them all for you. Take a look."

Zhou Han came over to Lynn and placed a pile of materials in front of him.

"Young Hero, you are indeed capable. You actually completed it so quickly."

Lynn examined it, admiration in his eyes.

"Here, this is your payment. Please accept it."

Lynn pulled out a book with the words 'Lin Family Sword Technique' on it.

"Hmm?"

Why did it sound like a martial arts secret manual?

Zhou Han hurriedly took it with both hands.

[Sword Skill detected.]

[You have obtained the Lin Family Sword Technique. Do you want to learn it?]

The system prompt sounded. It was indeed a secret manual.

Lin Family Sword Technique?

Why was the name a little strange?

'It's not something strange, is it?'

"Learn."

Zhou Han said carefully, feeling a little flustered.

[Learned successfully. Skill panel activated. Please check!]

He was relieved that no weird result had occurred.

As expected, a skill option appeared on the virtual interface. Zhou Han opened it.

[Lin Family Sword Technique]

[Grade: Silver]

[Skill 1: Sky Splitting Slash (Unleash a violent sword aura that deals 1.3 times the attack damage to all enemy units within a 5-meter radius. Cooldown: 30 seconds.)]

[Skill 2: Eight Directional Heaven Splitter (Locked. Will only be unlocked after reaching a certain level of proficiency in Skill 1.)]

[Skill 3: Locked]

[Description: The Lin family's ancestral sword technique. When cultivated to the extreme, it will have immense power.]

After reading it, Zhou Han was excited.

This was a Silver-grade sword technique set with many accompanying moves.

Every move was a skill.

The skills after that were all in a locked state. It seemed that he had to constantly increase his proficiency and try to unlock them as soon as possible.

What Zhou Han was a little dissatisfied with was that the damage of the [Sky Splitting Slash] was not high. It was only 1.3 times the attack power. It could be said to be very useless.

Logically speaking, skills could also be enhanced!

"Enhance the Sky Splitting Slash twice."

[You have activated Talent—Infinite Enhancement. Enhancement successful. Please check the attributes.]

Sure enough, it could be enhanced.

However, he had less than 300 enhancement points left and could not use the third enhancement.

Zhou Han immediately opened the skill panel and checked.

[Sky Splitting Slash +2: Unleash 3 violent waves of sword aura and cause 5 times the attack damage to all enemy units within a 10-meter radius. Cooldown: 18 seconds.]

After enhancing, it first became three waves of sword aura. The coverage of the skill was higher than just one sword aura.

The advantage of this was that it was even more difficult for the target to dodge.

The damage range also increased, from five meters to ten.

The damage bonus became five times, and the cooldown was reduced by 12 seconds.

It could be said to have improved in all aspects. It was originally only a Silver-grade skill.

Now, its strength was comparable to the Platinum-grade, which was two grades higher.

[You have completed the mission, Material Collection 1, and obtained a large number of experience points.]

[You've successfully risen to Level 5.]

[Server Announcement: Player Zhou Han has successfully reached Level 5. As the first player to reach Level 5, he will be rewarded with 20 gold coins and 1 silver treasure chest.]

After this system announcement was made, everyone in the chat area started complaining again.

"This Zhou Han is too fierce! I remember that he even killed a Bronze-grade monster before."

"Who can add Zhou Han as a friend? I have a C-rank talent. I really want to cozy up to him!"

"The difference is too great! I'm still at Level 1, and I'm still far from reaching Level 2."

"How abnormal. Did he reach Level 5 so quickly? How did Zhou Han do it?"

"You don't know! I triggered a hidden mission previously. I reckon Zhou Han also had some opportunities!"

"Damn, the big shot, Beixuan, has appeared. Big shot, please guide me!"

"Zhou Han is nothing. Big Boss Beixuan is mighty."

Ads by Pubfuture

"That's right. Zhou Han just got lucky. Only Big Boss Beixuan depends on his strength."

Chen Beixuan was very unhappy with Zhou Han, who had triggered two system announcements.

He was clearly the chosen one who had awakened a B-rank talent and was taking the lead in this area.

However, Zhou Han always got first place while he did not get anything.

He wasn't convinced so he got some people to change the topic in the chat area.

These people were also his teammates.

This was to belittle Zhou Han and praise Chen Beixuan.

"Zhou Han, don't let me meet you, or I'll definitely teach you a lesson." 𝗯𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝗲𝐥.𝗻𝗲𝐭

Chen Beixuan was filled with anger. He thought that Zhou Han was just relying on luck.

In terms of real strength, this guy would definitely not be able to defeat him.

Chapter 15: Easily Leveling Up

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Uncle, is there anything else you want to tell me? You don't have to be polite. Just leave everything to me."

After completing the mission and obtaining a large number of experience points, Zhou Han tasted the sweetness.

'Let's keep talking to Lynn. See if I can get some more missions.'

"Yes, you're indeed very good. However, the subsequent missions are too difficult. Your strength is still not enough!"

However, it was obvious that Lynn had expressed his refusal, which disappointed Zhou Han.

What do you mean?

Am I not strong enough?

How powerful must I be?!

Ads by Pubfuture

Or rather, Lynn decided this based on his level.

Therefore, he felt that Zhou Han's strength was very ordinary.

'Should I show it then?'

Thinking of this, Zhou Han immediately made a decision.

"Uncle, don't be in a hurry to refuse. Take a look at my strength."

Zhou Han raised his iron sword and slashed at a big tree in front of him.

He directly activated the skill [Sky Splitting Slash].

"Boom…"

Three violent sword auras waves spewed out.

The tree exploded, leaves flying in the air.

The attack of the sword energy did not decrease. It streaked across the ground.

It extended ten meters away and smashed open a gully more than a meter deep.

"Hmm?"

Three waves of sword aura?

Good fellow!

This power is not simple!

Seeing the scene in front of him, Lynn frowned and looked at Zhou Han thoughtfully.

In a moment, the power of the sword aura dissipated.

Zhou Han sheathed his sword and looked at Lynn tentatively.

"Well? Can I complete the mission?"

"Good lad. You really are a genius. I almost misjudged you!"

"What about the mission, then?"

Zhou Han ignored the other party's praise. He only cared if he could receive the mission.

"Of course, I have a mission for you. With your strength, even in Blue Thunder City, you're one of the best among the younger generation."

Lynn stroked his beard and looked at Zhou Han with fiery eyes. There was a different kind of feeling.

Zhou Han immediately looked wary. 'I'm a man with a normal sexual orientation.'

Fortunately, the system notification came in time, making Zhou Han heave a sigh of relief.

[New mission detected: Material Collection 2. Do you accept?]

After Zhou Han chose to accept it, detailed information was displayed.

[Material Collection 2]

[Description: Collect 100 ice wolf pelts, 50 tiger teeth, and 10 fire crystals and give them to Lynn.]

[Progress: Ice Wolf Pelt 0/100; Tiger Teeth 0/50; Fire Crystal 0/10]

[Location: Fog Forest, Ice Field Cave (Coordinates: …)]

[Ice Wolf Pelt: There is a high chance of dropping it after killing an Ice Field Wolf.]

[Tiger Teeth: There is a higher chance of dropping them after killing a Saber Tooth Tiger.]

[Fire Crystal Stone: A crystal containing fire elements that can be collected in the wild. It can also be dropped by killing Fire Lizards.]

After reading it, Zhou Han checked the map and compared the locations of the three types of wild monsters.

Realizing that the Ice Field Wolf was the closest, he decided to start with them.

On the way, Zhou Han suddenly remembered that he still had a silver treasure chest that he had not opened.

"Open the silver treasure chest."

Zhou Han wondered if he could get another wave of Gold equipment. He was looking forward to it.

[You opened the silver treasure chest.]

[You have received a Beginner Experience Card.]

'Hmm? An experience card?'

'Seems like a good thing.'

Zhou Han hurriedly checked.

[Beginner Experience Card]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Effect: After using it, you can obtain 1.2 times the EXP for 2 hours. (Including killing monsters, completing missions, and other EXP.)]

[Description: A one-time consumable that will disappear automatically after use. Limited to one person.]

Zhou Han was a little disappointed when he saw that it was Bronze-grade.

But after seeing the effect, it still felt good.

Bronze-grade could be enhanced three times, but Zhou Han only had more than 100 enhancement points now. It was not enough.

After putting the card into the package, the group quickly arrived at the Ice Field Cave.

The climate here was a little cold, and a large number of Ice Field Wolves had gathered here.

Before taking action, Zhou Han habitually appraised his attributes.

[Ice Field Wolf]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Grade: Bronze]

[Level: 9]

[Life: 660]

[Attack: 210]

[Defense: 76]

[Skill: Ice Spike: Condenses the ice element into an ice spike, causing 2.1 times the attack damage to a single target. There is a 5% chance of freezing the target. When frozen, the target will lose the ability to move for 3 seconds. Cooldown: 35 seconds.]

[Description: A pack of dire beasts that are good at using ice elements to attack.]

Zhou Han did not expect the other party to be a group of Bronze-grade dire beasts.

No wonder before accepting the mission, Lynn felt that Zhou Han was not strong enough.

An ordinary Level 5 player couldn't even defeat an Ice Field Wolf.

Moreover, there were more than 200 of them.

The mission was indeed very difficult!

Of course, this was only for other players. It was nothing to Zhou Han.

The only thing to worry about was the freezing effect.

Zhou Han took out his iron sword and directly slashed with the [Sky Splitting Slash].

-2710

-2699

-2674

...

A sharp sword aura quickly flew out.

Within ten meters ahead, there were twenty to thirty Ice Field Wolves.

They had no time to react before they were instantly killed.

Good lord!

'Was that a critical hit?'

Although Zhou Han knew that the damage of the enhanced [Sky Splitting Slash] was also high, it was impossible to steadily hit more than 2,600 damage.

The only explanation was that a 6% critical chance had been triggered.

After killing them, the enhancement points were enough.

"Enhance the Beginner Experience Card three times."

[You have activated Talent—Infinite Enhancement. Enhancement successful. Please check the attributes.]

[Beginner Experience Card +3]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Effect: After using it, you can obtain 4 times the EXP for 4 hours. (Including killing monsters, completing missions, and other EXP.)]

[Description: A one-time consumable that will disappear automatically after use. When in a team, the team members will share the experience buff.]

After enhancing, the effect was extremely shocking.

First, the duration of the buff's effect increased to four hours, and the multiplier increased to four times.

More importantly, the teammates in the team could share the experience buff.

This time, the sisters were happy. They could just lie flat and earn experience points.

"Awoo…"

When the Ice Field Wolves saw that their territory had uninvited guests who even killed so many of their brothers, they bared their teeth and pounced at Zhou Han.

Zhou Han did not retreat at all. He charged forward with a murderous aura.

"Moo…"

A lot of icicles condensed in the air. They came at him with a cold wind.

Clearly, the Ice Field Wolves had released their Ice Spike skill.

Zhou Han was delighted when he saw this. He had long been prepared.

Using the advantage of speed, he gently dodged.

He was very satisfied and successfully tricked a wave of skills.

Although it was only a 5% chance of freezing, there was still a lot of Ice Field Wolves!

There would always be a few who would successfully trigger it, so Zhou Han was still very afraid.

Therefore, he formulated a strategy.

He would first waste their skills and wait for their skills to enter cooldown before taking action to harvest their lives.

"Use the Beginner Experience Card."

[Used successfully. Current EXP buff effective time: 03:59:59.]

A description of an experience buff appeared on the virtual panel, along with a timer.

After the Sky Splitting Slash cooled down, three more sword auras flew out.

Dozens of Ice Field Wolves were instantly killed.

After a few waves, the Ice Field Wolves here were also wiped out.

Zhou Han successfully advanced to Level 6, and his progress bar reached 76%. He was not far from Level 7.

Ads by Pubfuture

Four times the experience was indeed exaggerated. Leveling up was really fast.

Coupled with the experience gained from killing monsters above his level, the benefits were terrifying.

"What? I've reached Level 5?"

"Me too. What's the situation?"

The sisters stared at each other, their eyes filled with joy and surprise.

They were professionals when it came to lying flat and leveling up.

If their contribution to the team battle was low, they wouldn't gain much experience.

They had experienced it before.

But this time, it was different.

They gained a lot of experience out of nowhere.

Chapter 16: Level Ranking, Two Sisters Dominating the Ranking

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"You two beauties, don't be in a daze! Come and collect the wolf pelt!"

Zhou Han did not want to waste the buff's duration and hurriedly urged.

Hearing this, the sisters hurriedly began to move.

[Server Announcement: Player Han Xiangning has successfully reached Level 5 and become the second in the entire server. Reward: 8 gold coins and 1 bronze treasure chest.]

[Server Announcement: Player Han Qinxue has successfully reached Level 5 and become the third in the entire server. Reward: 5 gold coins and 1 bronze treasure chest.]

After hearing the system announcement, Zhou Han finally knew why they were in a daze.

After all, they had just obtained two bronze treasure chests from lying flat. How wonderful!

Two people who had broken through to Level 5 appeared at once.

Ads by Pubfuture

The chat area started to get lively.

"Damn, what's with these two? They're so fierce. They reached Level 5 almost at the same time."

"Those two names sound like girls! I'm only at Level 2. Oh my God! I'm worse than a girl."

"Are all the boys dead? It's embarrassing to have two girls in the top three."

"Have you forgotten Zhou Han, who's ranked first?"

"That's right. We men can only rely on Zhou Han to maintain our dignity."

"Boss Zhou Han, you must hold on. You must not be overtaken by these two women."

However, Zhou Han did not look at the situation in the chat area. He was taking the time to pack up the wolf pelts.

Otherwise, he would have been amused to see this.

[Server Announcement: Three players in this region have reached Level 5. The level ranking will now be opened. The players in the top 100 will receive generous rewards. The ranking will be calculated once a week.]

[Note: The first player to reach Level 10 will obtain a hidden class template.]

As soon as this news came out, the chat area instantly exploded.

"Damn! A hidden class! That's ten times stronger than an ordinary class."

"Work hard to level up. I want this hidden class."

"I can't ask for a hidden class. I just hope to get into the top hundred."

"Looks like these rewards have no affinity with our low-rank talents. We can only watch."

"You can't say that. There are many opportunities in this world. You might encounter them one day!"

"Yes, now that you mention it, I'm instantly filled with confidence. I have a cliff here. I'll jump down and see what I can find!"

"I hope you can survive. I need a powerful B-rank teammate to level up with. My current teammate is too lousy."

"Finding a strong teammate. My B-rank talent is Flame Enhancement."

"B-rank talents, form a team! Let's get into the top ten."

...

Soon, the chat area was flooded with recruitment messages. Everyone wanted to find a strong team to quickly level up.

As a result, the strong began to group together and become stronger.

If the weak could not keep up with development, they would only become weaker. The gap would widen.

"The hidden class is mine. Even if I'm in fourth place, I'm only temporarily behind. Zhou Han, just you wait!" 𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Chen Beixuan clenched his fists and sneered.

He was determined to get first place.

Such was the confidence that the strong possessed.

Then, he opened the rankings and looked.

[Level Ranking]

1. Zhou Han: Level 6 (76%)

2. Han Xiangning: Level 5 (10%)

3. Han Qinxue: Level 5 (3.5%)

4. Mei Aoxue: Level 3 (38%)

5. Chen Beixuan: Level 3 (0.9%)

...

"What? I'm actually in fifth place."

Chen Beixuan's expression turned ugly. He had thought he was in fourth place, but now this was happening.

It was hard for him to accept that his arrogance was so ridiculous.

The faces kept changing. After a few minutes of silence, he seemed to make up his mind and spoke to the team.

"Come on, let's head for that cave!"

"You know the dangers there, don't you? Do you really want to take such a risk?"

One of the team members was anxious and hurriedly dissuaded him.

"Danger and opportunity coexist. Say no more. My mind is made up!"

Chen Beixuan led the way out.

...

The man and women worked together tirelessly.

Soon, the number of wolf pelts reached 100, and the mission here was completed.

Without stopping, the three of them set off for their next destination, the habitat of the Saber Tooth Tiger.

"Don't the two of you have a treasure chest each? Open it and take a look. Perhaps a divine artifact will drop!"

On the way, Zhou Han said with a smile.

"That's right. I wonder what good stuff can be opened. Sister, open it first!"

Han Qinxue nodded and opened the case in two seconds.

There was a flash of light and a piece of equipment appeared in his hand.

"How is it? What quality is it?"

Zhou Han hurriedly asked, looking forward to it.

He wondered what luck the beauty would have.

"It's a Bronze-grade wrist guard!"

After hearing this, Zhou Han was a little disappointed.

It was considered average. At least, none of them were Ordinary-grade.

Han Qinxue was quite happy. Obtaining the bronze treasure chest was already a pleasant surprise.

Being able to obtain bronze-grade equipment was equivalent to getting a free item.

"Sister, your luck isn't that good! Watch me!"

Han Xiangning smiled.

"A treasure chest hiding a mysterious power! Show me your true strength. Gold equipment, heed my call. Come out!"

Han Xiangning crossed her arms like a magical girl.

She looked extremely cute and made one want to kiss her.

There was a flash of light, and then Han Xiangning fell silent.

They were unsure why she was in such a daze.

"Could it be that a top-grade equipment dropped?"

Zhou Han looked at Han Xiangning for a long time without saying anything.

'Was she shocked?'

A bold guess formed in his mind.

"Sob, it's an Ordinary equipment!"

Han Xiangning's expression changed and she looked pitiful.

"Hahaha…"

Zhou Han and Han Qinxue laughed at the same time.

She got this thing after such an elaborate ritual.

Logically speaking, Han Xiangning had such a fair appearance. She definitely wouldn't have bad luck!

It seemed that luck had nothing to do with one's looks.

"Alright, alright. Zhou Han, this wrist guard is for you!"

After the three of them finished laughing, Han Qinxue handed the equipment to Zhou Han.

"Here, take a look and see if it's of any use to you."

The sisters naturally knew that Zhou Han was the strongest one.

As the team's output core, good equipment had to be worn first.

Zhou Han did not stand on ceremony. Since they were all acquaintances, he directly took it.

After checking, he realized that it was a belt.

Although it was an ordinary level, he happened to lack equipment for this part.

Equipment parts were divided into helmet, clothing, wrist guard, belt, leg guard, and boots.

A total of six parts.

As for accessories, there were: necklace, ring, bracelet, magic stone, badge, medal, and so on. There was also some special equipment.

"Are you going to tie me up by giving me a belt?" Zhou Han said with a smirk.

After all, a girl giving a boy a belt had a special meaning.

"Ah, you're so annoying! Change into your equipment first!"

Han Xiangning blushed and hurriedly changed the topic.

Zhou Han only smiled calmly before checking the attributes of the equipment.

Chapter 17: New Special Effect, Ignore the Terrain

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han did not take a closer look. In any case, the attributes were definitely not good.

He directly activated enhancement. Bronze-grade could be enhanced thrice, and Ordinary-grade could only be enhanced twice.

[Cloth Belt +2]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Attributes: HP+300]

[Special Effect 1: After entering combat state, maximum HP will increase by 30%. Immediately disappears after leaving combat state for 5 seconds.]

[Special Effect 2: After being attacked, your attack power will increase by 10%. It cannot be stacked. If you do not receive any subsequent attacks within 10 seconds, the buff will disappear.]

[Description: A very ordinary equipment, but it can still play a small role in battle.]

After looking at it, Zhou Han also felt that this equipment was a little interesting.

Both special effects were related to combat.

It was quite possible for equipment that had been enhanced twice to have such an effect.

Zhou Han immediately buckled his belt.

The enhanced wrist guard flickered with a pale green halo.

The attributes also appeared.

[Green Steel Bracer +3]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Attributes: Defense+50, Health+400]

[Special Effect 1: When your health is below 100%, you will recover 400 HP per second.]

[Special Effect 2: Damage taken is reduced by 20%.]

[Description: Forged from tough green steel. Good defense.]

This time, Zhou Han was very satisfied. The increased health and defense were great.

The special effects were still healing and damage reduction. There were no changes, but the effects had increased.

After putting it on, Zhou Han opened the attribute panel and looked at his overall attributes.

[Zhou Han]

[Level: 6 (76%)]

[Class: None (Class Change at Level 10)]

[Health: 1,850+1,300]

[Attack: 60+300]

[Defense: 12+130]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]

[Weapon: Refined Iron Sword +3 (Burn, Kill)]

[Accessory: Three Leaf Necklace +2 (Absorbs 2,000 Damage, 50% Poison Resistance)]

[Helmet: None]

[Clothing: Mystic Light Robe +3 (500 HP per second, 40% Evasion)]

[Wrist Guard: Green Steel Bracer +3 (400 HP per second, 20% Damage Reduction)]

[Belt: Rough Belt +2 (Combat State: +30% Maximum HP, +10% Attack)]

[Leg Guard: None]

[Boots: Snake Skin War Boots +2 (10% Immune to Slow, Combat State: +50% Movement Speed)]

Now, his total HP had exceeded 3,000, and he could still absorb 2,000 points of damage.

Coupled with the 30% health bonus in combat, his health could be said to be close to 6,000.

The HP recovery effect could be stacked, recovering 900 HP per second.

There were also various special effects, damage reduction, and evasion. Zhou Han instantly felt that he was about to take off.

"Take this wrist guard first!"

Zhou Han handed the thick iron wrist guard he had changed out of to Han Qinxue.

When she put it on and saw the attributes, there was also a gasp.

She hadn't expected an ordinary piece of equipment to have such heaven-defying special effects.

She guessed that it should be related to Zhou Han's awakened talent.

Zhou Han's talent was probably not just B-rank. It might be A-rank or even higher.

She was smart enough not to ask.

Anyway, with such a powerful teammate in the team, she only needed to cozy up to him. Why would she need to ask for his secrets?

Roar!

Hearing the loud roar, the three of them had reached the area where the Saber Tooth Tiger was active. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝗺

The Saber Tooth Tiger was three times the size of an ordinary tiger. Its terrifying long fangs were exposed outside its mouth.

They gleamed like sharp swords, imposing and majestic.

Its eyes glittered fiercely as it watched the three approaching humans.

[Saber Tooth Tiger]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Level: 10]

[Life: 760]

[Attack: 250]

[Defense: 86]

[Skill: Tiger Pounce: Relying on a strong body, pounce on the target and cause 2.5 times the attack damage. Cooldown: 28 seconds.]

[Description: It does not like to live in groups. It is powerful and has great frontal strength.]

As Zhou Han had expected, this Saber Tooth Tiger was also Bronze-grade.

Its attributes were even stronger than the Ice Field Wolf, and it had reached Level 10.

After seeing the description, Zhou Han frowned.

'You don't like crowds?'

Sure enough, he realized that the Saber Tooth Tigers were scattered.

This was not good for him.

If he fought them one by one, it would be a waste of time.

The EXP buff time could not be wasted like this.

He had no choice but to pull the monsters in.

After more than half an hour, Zhou Han provoked nearly a hundred Saber Tooth Tigers.

After pulling the aggro, they surrounded Zhou Han in the center.

All of them let out fierce roars, wanting to tear Zhou Han into pieces.

Zhou Han did not panic at all. He used [Sky Splitting Slash] and insta-killed everyone.

The system notification also reminded him that he had leveled up to Level 7 and was one step closer to Level 10.

"Hehe, I was lucky. I dropped a piece of equipment."

Picking up a piece of equipment from the ground, Zhou Han checked and found that it was a Bronze-grade leg guard equipment.

He directly enhanced it three times. After wearing it, he checked its attributes.

[Tiger Skin Leg Guard +3]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Attributes: Movement Speed+35, Defense+20]

[Special Effect 1: Speed will not decrease because of the terrain (if the terrain is favorable to speed, speed will increase).]

[Special Effect 2: When you are attacked, the target's attack speed will decrease by 10%.]

[Description: Sewn from tiger skin, it has exquisite workmanship. Average defense.]

After Zhou Han saw it, his eyes lit up. It had actually increased his movement speed by 35 points.

This was awesome. He was really going to take off!

Moreover, Special Effect 1 was also very powerful. It completely ignored the influence of the terrain.

For example, if he took a mountain road or a place like a swamp, his speed would definitely be limited.

However, with this special effect, these places were completely unable to affect him.

If the wind was strong, the speed could be increased with the wind.

This special effect was really awesome.

Special Effect 2 was targeted at the enemy. It reduced the opponent's attack speed and could restrict the enemy very well.

"Zhou Han, we've collected all 50 tiger teeth."

Han Qinxue packed a bunch of long canine teeth and handed them over.

Zhou Han nodded and put it into his spatial bag.

"Let's go. We have to hurry. There are ten fire crystals left."

As pulling the monsters took a lot of time, Zhou Han and the others directly headed to the next target.

He opened the map and followed the route to a volcano.

In front of him was a group of Fire Lizards with attributes similar to that of the Saber Tooth Tiger. They were all Bronze-grade wild monsters.

However, they were all gathered together and it was very easy to clean them up.

Zhou Han used his skill three times before wrapping up.

"So, have you counted them? How many fire crystals?" Zhou Han asked when he saw the two sisters.

"Only eight. Not enough to complete the mission!"

Han Qinxue's expression darkened.

"Have you confirmed everything? Have you missed anything?" Zhou Han asked again.

More than 60 Fire Lizards only dropped 8 fire crystals.

Although he knew that the drop rate of fire crystals was extremely low, he did not expect it to be so low.

'We've checked it three times. It's really all we've got!' Han Xiangning said gloomily.

Chapter 18: Blacklisting Mei Aoxue

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the Fog Forest, there were also Fire Lizards in other areas, but they were far away.

Even if they rushed over now, there was no time.

Fire crystals could also be collected from caves, but it required luck.

Collecting fire crystals now was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

With this delay, the EXP buff time would have long passed.

Even if he handed in the mission, he would not be able to enjoy four times the experience.

"By the way, isn't there a trading area? Post a request for purchase. Maybe someone happens to have a fire crystal."

Han Qinxue suddenly reminded him.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Well, I'll try!"

Zhou Han nodded and felt that it was feasible.

He clicked on the [Trading Area] and posted a post asking to buy fire crystals.

He waited, but nothing happened.

Zhou Han opened the [Chat Area] again. He typed a sentence and clicked send.

"Those with fire crystals can talk to me privately. The price is negotiable."

After sending it out, Zhou Han regretted it immediately.

He was still too anxious!

If he put it that way, wouldn't he get ripped off?

However, on second thought, it was worth it to pay more resources for a mission with four times the experience.

Seeing Zhou Han's message, the chat area instantly became lively.

"Wow! Big Boss Zhou Han, I want to have children with you!"

"Get lost. Zhou Han is mine!"

"You're all daydreaming. What are fire crystals?"

"I've never heard of any of them! The big shot is playing a different game. This thing is obviously not simple."

"What a pity. I don't have any fire crystals and missed the opportunity to interact with the big shot!"

"Yes. I'm going to look for it now. I don't know if I'll make it in time."

...

Zhou Han looked at it for a while and was a little disappointed.

It was all nonsense. No one had ever seen anything like it.

"Yes? There's a private message?"

Just as Zhou Han was about to give up and leave the interface to think of another way…

A private message appeared on the panel.

Zhou Han took a closer look. The other party's name was Mei Aoxue. She should be a woman.

"It's not harassment, right?"

After all, many women had harassed Zhou Han before and were blocked by him.

With a slight hesitation, he opened the dialog box.

"I have a fire crystal. Picture attached."

After Zhou Han opened it, this sentence appeared in the dialog box.

He clicked on the picture and the description was displayed.

[Fire Crystal]: Contains a rich amount of fire elements. It has a wide range of uses and can increase the proficiency of fire skills.

After reading it, Zhou Han was delighted. It was indeed a fire crystal.

He immediately replied, "I need two fire crystals. I wonder if you have enough!"

In a cave, a beautiful figure killed all the Red Jade Scorpions in front of her.

She wore a long dress and her long hair fell to her shoulders. She had the aura of beauty, as if she were in a painting, perfect and flawless.

However, the only flaw was that her entire body emitted a cold aura. Her beautiful face was expressionless and arrogant.

Mei Aoxue was like a plum blossom in the snow, blooming with his own brilliance.

After receiving Zhou Han's message, she slowly opened the interface and began to talk.

"Yes, I do. Two is no problem."

With her current strength, she could not defeat the Bronze-grade Fire Lizard at all.

However, she was lucky and happened to collect a few fire crystals along the way.

After seeing Zhou Han's request, she took the initiative to initiate a private chat.

"What conditions are required?"

Ads by Pubfuture

"That depends on what you're offering. Just so we're clear, I'm not short of gold."

Still expressionless, Mei Aoxue continued typing.

She had already guessed that Zhou Han must have something urgent.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have shouted on the public chat after posting in the trading area.

The other party was ranked first on the rankings. Now that he had something to ask of her, she would definitely extort him.

Seeing Mei Aoxue's message, Zhou Han frowned. As expected, the other party was asking for more.

Her attitude was clear. She did not want gold coins.

Unless he gave something rare, she wouldn't trade with him.

Although Zhou Han was unhappy, he endured it for the experience buff.

"What do you think of this? The Heart Protecting Lotus."

Zhou Han only had equipment and spiritual fruits on him now.

It was definitely impossible to trade his equipment. In any case, there were still four Heart Protecting Lotuses that were useless to him.

Therefore, he directly sent the attributes of the Heart Protecting Lotus over.

"This won't do. It only adds 100 HP. It's too disadvantageous for me to exchange two fire crystals."

Actually, Mei Aoxue was a little tempted, but she still had to test Zhou Han's bottom line.

She believed that Zhou Han, who was ranked first, definitely had something better.

This was the competition of their mental fortitude.

'Hmm? Not to your liking?'

This was a greedy woman!

She wanted to eat him alive.

According to the normal price, a Heart Protecting Lotus could be exchanged for five fire crystals.

Fire crystals had a low drop rate, but they could still be dropped by killing monsters.

As for the Heart Protecting Lotus, it was considered a spiritual fruit that could only be chanced upon by luck. It was not something that one could obtain just because one wanted to.

However, the other party did not like it now and wanted greater benefits.

Zhou Han spent 2 enhancement points and sent the enhanced Heart Protecting Lotus over.

"It's the best thing I have. If you don't like it, forget it."

'What?'

'Increase 800 HP?'

Mei Aoxue's beautiful eyes were filled with surprise. With the bonus of 800 HP, she would level up even faster.

As expected of the first-ranked Zhou Han, he actually had such a powerful spiritual fruit.

This was only 800. How would she feel if she knew that it could increase her HP by 1,500?

"Sure, let's trade now!"

A smile bloomed on Mei Aoxue's face as if the ice had melted and the sun was shining. It was a beautiful sight.

She raised her eyebrows. 'So what if it's the number one on the list?'

She had him dancing in her palms.

Soon, Zhou Han requested a deal and successfully completed it.

After obtaining the Heart Protecting Lotus, Mei Aoxue was filled with excitement and sent a message. 𝚋e𝚍n𝚘ve𝚕.𝚘𝚛𝚐

"Zhou Han, happy cooperation. Let's work together again next time!"

[Message failed. You have been blacklisted!]

'What?'

'Blacklisted me?'

Mei Aoxue was in disbelief. How many men could not wait to get closer to her?

Zhou Han actually blacklisted her.

Ads by Pubfuture

'He certainly never saw my face.'

Mei Aoxue knew her own charms. Few men could resist it.

'Good. We'll meet again one day.'

'When the time comes, hehe…'

Mei Aoxue immediately looked forward to meeting Zhou Han.

This guy, who had obtained the Fire Crystal Stone, rushed towards Lynn.

There was still half an hour of buff time left. He had to race against time.

As for why he had blacklisted Mei Aoxue, it was mainly because this woman was too cunning.

She knew that he was in urgent need of fire crystals so she extorted him like this.

He was very unhappy that she had profited from the situation.

Chapter 19: Demon Summoning Scroll, Summoning World Boss

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Zhou Han, you're not bad. You completed the mission so quickly. As expected, heroes emerge from the young!"

Lynn stroked his beard, showing relief in his eyes as he smiled happily.

"The materials are all here. Do a quick check."

Zhou Han didn't have time to waste any more time. He hurriedly stuffed the materials into Lynn's hand.

"Yes, the numbers tally. Here, this is the reward. Take it!"

Lynn nodded and handed a black scroll that radiated mystery to Zhou Han.

As soon as he got it, he heard the system prompt.

[You have obtained the Demon Summoning Scroll. Please check it!]

Ads by Pubfuture

Zhou Han clicked on it.

[Demon Summoning Scroll: After using it, it will summon a World Boss. Killing it will give a generous reward.]

[Note: The summoned Boss will be announced to the entire region. If you don't have powerful strength, don't summon it easily. Otherwise, it will benefit others.]

The World Bosses of the Godfiend Continent were divided into two categories.

The first was summoned through a scroll. The second was naturally spawned within the game.

However, there would be a regional announcement for both. Every player had an equal chance.

The higher the damage dealt to the Boss, the more rewards one would receive.

If a player dealt the final blow to the Boss, they would also receive a special reward.

To deal the final blow, one would have to rely on luck.

After all, there were too many people attacking the Boss. No one could guarantee that their attacks would kill the Boss.

[You have completed the mission, Material Collection 2, and obtained a large number of experience points.]

[You've successfully risen to Level 9.]

With the four times experience bonus, Zhou Han's experience suddenly reached 46% of Level 9. He was getting closer and closer to Level 10.

Zhou Han opened the rankings and glanced at them.

[Level Ranking]

1. Zhou Han: Level 9 (46%)

2. Han Xiangning: Level 8 (20.3%)

3. Han Qinxue: Level 8 (12.5%)

4. Mei Aoxue: Level 4 (58%)

5. Chen Beixuan: Level 3 (77.9%)

6. Lin Fan: Level 3 (33.3%)

...

The three of them firmly occupied the top three of the rankings, leaving the others far behind.

"In that case, let's use the Demon Summoning Scroll!"

Zhou Han's current strength was completely unrivaled. He was still confident in taking down the Boss.

He could also take this opportunity to reach Level 10 and obtain the hidden class reward.

[You used the Demon Summoning Scroll.]

[Server Announcement: Player Zhou Han has summoned the World Boss, the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider. It will appear in the Fog Forest in five minutes. Coordinates are…]

This announcement caused a stir among the players.

Killing a World Boss would drop a lot of rewards.

If one was lucky, one might be able to take off directly and make up for the gap brought by talent.

"Damn! Boss Zhou Han is too fierce. He actually summoned a World Boss."

"I wonder how strong the World Boss is. I hope it's not too strong. That way, us rogues can still make some money."

"Let's go. We have to hurry or the Boss will be snatched."

"I'm in the area right now. I've got some strong teammates coming."

"I have bad luck. I'm too far from the coordinates to make it in time."

"I'd better not go. My strength is too weak. If I have the time to join in the fun, I might as well level up."

...

Damn, this was too much of a scam!

Ads by Pubfuture

Zhou Han was speechless when he saw the coordinates given by the system.

The Boss's spawn point was thirty kilometers away.

Even if Zhou Han had 55 points of speed now, he needed to conserve some energy and would definitely not run at full speed.

All things considered, it would take more than twenty minutes to get there.

Although he was unhappy, he would not give up until the Boss's kill notification appeared.

After agreeing to meet up with the sisters, Zhou Han jumped out like the wind.

Soon, five minutes passed and the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider appeared in a spacious clearing.

The huge body lay there, unmoving, seemingly harmless.

Many players who were closer arrived early and waited, ready to attack.

Seeing the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider appear, everyone was excited and their eyes were burning.

This was a favorable position. The opportunity to turn the tables was right in front of them. No one wanted to miss it.

"Let's go, brothers. The Boss belongs to our team!"

"Come on, let's follow. We can't let them get ahead of us."

"The Boss' level is too high to check its specific attributes. Will it be dangerous to rush up like this?"

"Dangerous? How dangerous? So many of us could drown it with a spit each."

"Yes. Don't you understand the principle of ants biting an elephant to death?"

"Don't be a coward. Attack together!"

As long as they killed the Boss and dropped top-grade equipment, they would be able to make a comeback.

Therefore, many players lost their minds and rushed forward like moths to a flame.

Moreover, the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider was lying there looking harmless, giving this group of people even more courage.

If they didn't seize the opportunity and got robbed, they would regret it for life!

Of course, there were also some schemers who were very calm and watched coldly from the side. They would not take risks easily.

"Ah…"

There was an uninterrupted scream, then it became very quiet.

Sure enough, something had happened!

Just as these players were about to approach, the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider suddenly moved.

It spat out a green mist that killed every player within ten meters.

There was no chance to defend themselves before dying. The scene was horrifying and strange.

Seeing this, the people rushing from behind hurriedly stopped in their tracks, their legs weak with fear.

This World Boss was too ferocious and instantly became a killing machine.

"Damn, that's ridiculous. Instant kill!"

"That green aura must be poisonous mist!"

"Fortunately, I ran slowly and fell behind. Otherwise, I would probably be a corpse now!"

"Sigh, I'm still too impulsive!"

These people's backs turned cold and they broke out in a cold sweat. Their heated minds calmed down instantly.

A World Boss was indeed not to be underestimated.

After that wave of instant kills, these people were obviously terrified.

They were too uncertain to step forward.

This was not a game!

Ads by Pubfuture

They had only one life and there was no chance of resurrection.

Everyone tried to use long-range attacks but it didn't work either.

Their weapons were too weak to penetrate the defense.

They could only wait where they were. They wanted to leave, but they could not bear to. However, they could not win.

"Let's go! We can't beat it. Let's slip away."

"Don't be anxious. Wasn't this Boss summoned by Zhou Han? When he's fighting the Boss, it's also possible for us to follow behind and deal some damage!"

"Hey, this is not bad. But where is Zhou Han now?"

"Who knows! We don't know what he looks like. He could be mixed up in the crowd right now!"

"Sigh, don't count on Zhou Han. He probably can't deal with such a Boss either. Otherwise, he would have attacked long ago."

Everyone had their own thoughts and discussed fervently.

Chapter 20: Instant Kill, Chen Beixuan Causes Trouble

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

More than half of the people had already left. A small number were still watching.

"Phew… finally caught up!"

Seeing the Boss in the open space, Zhou Han, who had run over, heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was the Boss.

After resting for a minute, Zhou Han activated Appraisal on the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider.

[The level difference between you and the target is too great. Identification failed!]

"Hmm?"

'I can't identify it?'

This was the first time Zhou Han had encountered such a situation.

Ads by Pubfuture

Although Appraisal was an initial skill, it was very useful.

After all, if they could obtain information about the target, they could make corresponding targeted combat plans.

He wondered how effective it would be after enhancement.

[You have activated the Talent—Infinite Enhancement. The skill 'Appraisal' has been successfully enhanced twice. Please check!]

[Appraisal +2: Ignores the level difference and can see the attributes of any target. At the same time, it can identify the target's weaknesses. Attacking the target's weakness will cause 2 to 5 times the damage.]

It was indeed effective. Furthermore, a weakness explanation had appeared. Attacking a weakness could also stack critical damage.

Zhou Han did not take the Appraisal skill to heart previously. After all, it was an auxiliary skill.

If not for the fact that he could not check the attributes now, he would not have thought of enhancing it.

If he had known that it would be so useful, Zhou Han would have enhanced it long ago.

When he looked at it again, the target's attribute panel was indeed displayed.

[Bloodthirsty Demon Spider]

[Grade: Silver]

[Level: 20]

[Life: 2,100]

[Attack: 513]

[Defense: 177]

[Skill 1: Poison Mist: All enemy units within 10 meters lose 1,000 HP per second. Duration: 10 seconds. Cooldown: 25 seconds.]

[Skill 2: Bloodthirsty: After causing damage, recover 60% of the damage as equivalent HP.]

[Description: Strong toxicity, strong recovery ability, do not fight a protracted battle; the head and legs are its weaknesses.]

"Is this the Silver-grade World Boss? It's so weak?"

After looking at the attributes, Zhou Han complained.

These players were horrible.

This sea of people could not hurt the Boss at all.

Zhou Han had no problem fighting ten Bosses like this.

Although the Poison Mist skill caused a constant loss of HP, Zhou Han had Poison Resistance and the special effect of recovering 900 HP per second.

It posed no threat at all.

There was also a Bloodthirsty skill that could recover health.

However, with a total of only 2,100 HP, it was nothing to Zhou Han.

Without wasting any time, Zhou Han walked up with his iron sword.

He had to hurry because there was a time limit to how long a World Boss could stay.

If it was not killed within the stipulated time, it would automatically disappear.

Therefore, Zhou Han could not let the rewards fly away.

"Hey, kid, you just came, right? Don't go up and die. You can't deal with this Boss alone!"

Seeing Zhou Han walking straight towards the Boss, a kind-hearted player immediately reminded him.

He believed that Zhou Han came later and did not see the tragic scene of a large number of players dying.

When Zhou Han heard the other party's words, he took a look and nodded.

Then he continued forward without hesitation, looking like he wouldn't listen to reason.

"Hey, this kid, don't you understand what I'm saying?"

"Hehe, young people like to show off, but the price this time might be a little high!"

"He doesn't know what's good for him! If this Boss is really so easy to kill, why would a large group of us be waiting here foolishly?"

"That's not how you try to be pretentious! It costs you your life."

"Even Zhou Han, who's ranked first, isn't so good at posturing. Look at how low-key everyone else is."

"That's right! Look, once you get close to the Boss, he'll die immediately!"

At this moment, Zhou Han was very close to the Boss in order to accurately hit its weakness.

When the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider saw Zhou Han's intrusion, its eyes were filled with endless anger, and it spat out a mouthful of poisonous mist.

"It's this green mist that's about to kill him. Watch me count. One second."

"Two seconds?"

"Three seconds? What's going on? He's not dead after three seconds?"

"Something's wrong! This doesn't make sense!"

"This man is something!"

"Damn, he's a big shot! I misjudged him."

Zhou Han was not afraid of the poisonous mist at all.

He slashed out with his sword, releasing the Sky Splitting Slash.

Three sword auras flew towards the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider's head.

–2769

The increase in damage from the weakness and the five times damage from the Sky Splitting Slash resulted in a one-shot kill!

Boom!

[Output Ratio]

1. Zhou Han: 100%

The Bloodthirsty Demon Spider crashed heavily to the ground.

Relying on its body's instincts, it continued to twitch.

"What… what happened? He killed the boss just like that?"

"What? Impossible? I've never seen anyone so powerful!"

'You saw it today. My God, this is f*cking ridiculous!'

"Instant kill? You must be kidding me! The boss is like paper in front of this person. It can't withstand a single blow."

"He turned my common sense upside down!"

[Server Announcement: Player Zhou Han has successfully killed the World Boss. Reward: 20 gold coins and 2 silver treasure chests.]

Soon, the system announcement sounded in everyone's minds.

"Zhou Han killed it? Then what about this person in front of me?"

"He's Zhou Han? No wonder he has such confidence and courage. I actually mocked him just now!"

"As expected, this is the dominance of being ranked first."

"He's so handsome and manly. I wonder if he has a girlfriend."

At this moment, the Bloodthirsty Demon Spider's corpse exploded, and a few silver lights flew out.

It glittered in the air for a moment, then fell to the ground.

"Silver light?"

"Did Silver-grade equipment drop?"

"There are several pieces of equipment!"

"Is the drop rate of World Bosses that high?"

"It should be related to the share of output."

"After all, I had dealt 100% damage, and I was the one who had delivered the final blow."

"These rewards all belong to me."

Zhou Han was overjoyed.

"Goodness, I saw five silver lights. That's five pieces of Silver equipment!"

"I'm f*cking jealous! If only I could have one."

"With these pieces of Silver equipment, Zhou Han will become even more terrifying!"

The players reacted differently to such a scene.

Some were envious, others jealous.

One by one, their eyes flickered. No one knew what they were thinking.

Standing in the middle of the crowd, Chen Beixuan watched Zhou Han's performance from beginning to end.

His heart was filled with greed and resentment. He had a B-rank talent and extraordinary capabilities.

However, he was no match for Zhou Han at all.

Ads by Pubfuture

He guessed that Zhou Han must have obtained some kind of opportunity.

"Zhou Han, hand over the Silver equipment. There are so many of us here and we didn't get anything. Do you want to keep it for yourself?"

Chen Beixuan pondered for a moment before standing up and scolding Zhou Han.

Of course, he definitely could not deal with Zhou Han alone.

He had to make good use of the greed in the hearts of all present.

As long as he started, everyone's emotions were stirred up and they unanimously scolded Zhou Han.

"Zhou Han, you're too much. Hurry up and hand over the equipment."

"Yes, you're already so strong as first place. We're all too poor."

"Don't even think about leaving today unless you give us something good!"

Chapter 21: 1 Versus 1,000, Chen Beixuan's Death

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Soon, Chen Beixuan took the lead and his teammates echoed his words.

Many people present pointed their accusations at Zhou Han.

They criticized fiercely and wanted to force him to submit.

If they had met Zhou Han normally, they definitely wouldn't have had the guts.

Things were different now.

Firstly, they felt that Zhou Han had just fought with the boss and was not in a good state. It could even be said that he was currently weak.

Secondly, there were thousands of people present. No matter how strong Zhou Han was, could he fight thousands of people alone?

Through these analyses, these players were filled with confidence and had the courage to challenge Zhou Han.

Looking at the chaotic scene, Chen Beixuan had a smile on his face.

He looked as if victory was in his grasp.

Zhou Han also noticed Chen Beixuan's smug gaze.

This guy was indeed sinister and had instigated these players to cause this situation.

However, in the face of absolute power, any scheme was useless.

He would deal with such clowns later. For now, he had to deal with the trouble at hand.

"Good. You all want my gear, don't you?"

Zhou Han's expression was cold. He pointed at the flat ground on his right and continued, "There's an empty space in front of me. Those who want my equipment, stand over here! Before you make a choice, don't be impulsive."

"Think it through. You have one minute!"

After saying that, he closed his eyes.

As for why he did it, the goal was to capture all those who were greedy for his possessions.

Everyone listened with different expressions.

Was he showing weakness?

Or was he admitting defeat?

Many of them were overjoyed. As expected, Zhou Han was a little afraid of facing thousands of people at once!

At the thought of being able to obtain Silver equipment immediately, everyone's hearts were filled with excitement.

They all began to gather quickly.

"You've made your choice? Then you can go to hell together!"

A minute later, Zhou Han opened his eyes and saw many people standing on the flat ground.

It was impossible to count exactly how many there were. In any case, there were no less than a thousand.

Zhou Han really did not expect so many people to come and seek death.

What an ignorant bunch. They had no idea of the difference in strength.

Right now, Zhou Han was standing on the spot. Even if they attacked, they would not be able to break his defense.

Greed was indeed human nature.

People died for money and birds died for food. It was not just a saying.

When these people heard Zhou Han's words, their expressions changed.

"Big talk. You should see how many of us are here."

"Brothers, go and teach him a lesson!"

"Is he that arrogant? Does he really think he can take on a thousand people by himself?"

"Let's attack. If we get the equipment, it's ours."

More than a thousand people surrounded Zhou Han.

Cruel smiles appeared on their faces as all kinds of weapons were used on Zhou Han.

But then, stunned expressions appeared on their faces.

-0

Miss!

-0

-0

"What's going on? Why isn't he losing HP?"

"He can actually dodge? We can't even break his defense?"

"How can we fight this? It's too terrifying! This is a human Boss!"

"F*ck, let's retreat quickly. We can't afford to offend him!"

The group of people was immediately frightened. To them, Zhou Han was simply invincible.

His strength exceeded their imagination.

Ads by Pubfuture

They originally thought that no matter how strong Zhou Han was, he was only several times stronger than them.

There was certainly no hope of survival under the siege of a thousand people.

They were wrong.

Not to mention a thousand people, even ten thousand people could not do anything to Zhou Han.

None of them continued to be stupid. As they calmed down instantly, their greed completely consumed by fear.

They started to scatter and run.

"Trying to escape? You made the wrong choice and deserve to be punished!"

Zhou Han's eyes turned cold. The iron sword in his hand emitted a bloodthirsty cold light under the sunlight.

He would definitely not show mercy to these people who wanted to kill him.

Zhou Han first used the [Sky Splitting Slash] where the crowd was the densest. In an instant, more than a hundred people fell to the ground.

"Ah! Run!"

"Murderer!"

"That's horrible!"

When these people saw Zhou Han's powerful killing intent, they immediately panicked.

"A bunch of useless people. Let me show you my true strength."

Relying on his advantage in speed, Zhou Han was like a god of death, constantly harvesting their heads. His expression was cold, and there was no trace of pity in his eyes.

These players had no ability to resist at all. All of them were like chicks, unable to withstand a single blow.

The current area was like purgatory. Screams and cries were everywhere.

"What, that's impossible? How can he be so powerful?"

Chen Beixuan was completely dumbfounded. This was 1 versus 1,000!

Since when did Zhou Han have such powerful strength?

He had thought that he was talented, but he did not expect that he was such a weakling in front of Zhou Han.

The other party could crush him with a finger.

"Your turn!"

After killing all these players, Zhou Han looked at Chen Beixuan with a ferocious aura.

"No, no, I—"

When he met Zhou Han's cold gaze, he was terrified and panicked.

They were both players who had just entered the Godfiend Continent. Why was the difference in strength so huge?

Chen Beixuan would not have the chance to figure this out in the future as a sword light flew over and cut him in half.

From the beginning to the end, Zhou Han did not know that this guy was Chen Beixuan.

Anyway, he was just a clown. There was no need to know.

"Anyone else who wants my equipment?"

Zhou Han's calm gaze swept across the crowd.

No one dared meet his gaze.

They all bowed their heads, too frightened to breathe.

What a joke!

Did they not want to live?

More than a thousand people were killed within minutes.

He was a god of death!

This terrifying and shocking scene would be seared into their hearts.

After watching for a while without anyone making a sound, Zhou Han felt bored.

"In that case, piss off!"

The rest of the crowd breathed a sigh of relief at that.

One by one, they ran away from this terrifying place.

Zhou Han was a little puzzled. Why wasn't there a notification that he had reached Level 10?

He checked his attribute panel. His EXP had reached Level 9 (99.2%).

Zhou Han was a little speechless when he saw this.

Han Qinxue and her sister had not arrived yet.

While Zhou Han waited, he also began to check the Silver equipment he had obtained.

A total of five pieces of Silver equipment.

Zhou Han started reading.

[Mithril Sword], [Grand Feather Helmet], [Jade Ring], [Purple Jade Necklace], [Cloud Helmet].

One weapon, two helmet gear, and two accessories.

Chapter 22: Class Change – Sword Soul, Handsome

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After comparing the attributes, Zhou Han chose the [Grand Feather Helmet] with better attributes.

After enhancement, the attributes were displayed.

[Grand Feather Helmet +3]

[Grade: Silver]

[Attributes: Defense +100, Health +700]

[Special Effect 1: Damage taken reduced by 20%.]

[Special Effect 2: In battle, the probability of receiving a critical hit is reduced by 30%.]

[Description: Made from the feathers of a swan goose. It is very exquisite and can protect the head well.]

Ads by Pubfuture

His defense and HP had increased quite a lot.

Two special effects: one to reduce damage and one to reduce the critical hit rate when attacked.

Zhou Han looked at the enhanced weapon again.

[Mithril Sword +3]

[Grade: Silver]

[Attributes: Attack+300, Critical Rate+10%]

[Special Effect 1: After entering combat state, attack will increase by 3 times. Immediately disappears after leaving combat state for 5 seconds.]

[Special Effect 2: When the target's health is lower than 30%, there is a 20% chance of them being directly killed.]

[Description: A sharp blade is very damaging.]

His attack power and critical chance had increased.

Special Effect 1 could increase attack power. The triple bonus was very good.

Special Effect 2 was still the effect of killing. The probability had increased a little.

After equipping it, Zhou Han's combat strength increased significantly.

Soon, the sisters came over and Zhou Han distributed the extra equipment to them.

[Server Announcement: Player Zhou Han is the first to reach Level 10. Reward: Hidden class template.]

After killing ten dire beasts, a system announcement finally came.

Seeing the additional hidden class template in the package, Zhou Han was excited.

He could finally change his class!

After hearing the announcement, the players in the chat immediately expressed their envy and jealousy.

"This is too heaven-defying. He reached Level 10 so quickly."

"I'm only Level 2, but the big shot is already Level 10. Comparisons are odious!"

"Han Xiangning and Han Qinxue should be reaching Level 10 soon!"

"Why are they all so powerful? Strange, I don't see Big Boss Chen Beixuan?"

"Did you just wake up? Zhou Han fought more than a thousand people alone and Chen Beixuan was killed instantly!"

"Chen Beixuan is finally dead? Good thing he's dead. It's so frustrating to keep seeing him show off."

"Damn, are you serious? Is he that fierce?"

"Of course it's true. Zhou Han killed so many people that the sky darkened and the sun and moon dimmed."

"It's really too scary…"

Zhou Han took out the hidden class template and checked it.

According to the system, there were several basic classes in the Godfiend Continent.

Swordsman, Monk, Archer, Mage, Clergyman, Nightbringer, and Lancer.

Then, there would be some details in each basic class.

At Level 25, he could undergo the first awakening.

Zhou Han was not very sure about the details.

[Hidden class template detected. Please choose your class.]

"I choose the Swordsman."

Zhou Han directly chose to be a Swordsman. He felt that it was convenient to use a sword, and it was quite handsome.

It was not important if the class could deal high damage. Being handsome was the number one priority.

Anyway, with the talent of Infinite Enhancement, Zhou Han did not lack that bit of damage.

Even a useless class could become godly in his hands.

[You became a Swordsman.]

[Hidden class template triggered. You have obtained the hidden class: Sword Soul.]

Sword Soul?

Was this the hidden class of a Swordsman?

It seemed decent.

"Open the attribute panel."

[Zhou Han]

[Level: 10 (0.1%)]

[Class: Sword Soul (First Awakening at Level 25)]

[Health: 3,000+2,000]

[Attack: 500+400]

[Defense: 100+250]

[Weapon: Mithril Sword +3 (Triple Attack, Kill)]

[Accessory: Three Leaf Necklace +2 (Absorbs 2,000 Damage, 50% Poison Resistance)]

[Helmet: Grand Feather Helmet +3 (20% Damage Reduction, 30% Critical Hit Resistance)]

[Clothing: Mystic Light Robe +3 (500 HP per second, 40% Evasion)]

[Wrist Guard: Green Steel Bracer +3 (400 HP per second, 20% Damage Reduction)]

[Belt: Rough Belt +2 (Combat State: +30% Maximum HP, +10% Attack)]

[Leg Guard: Tiger Skin Leg Guard +3 (Ignore the Terrain, Target's Attack Speed -10%)]

[Boots: Snake Skin War Boots +2 (10% Immune to Slow, Combat State: +50% Movement Speed)]

The hidden class was indeed powerful. His basic attributes increased greatly.

It was several times better than an ordinary class.

Now, Zhou Han could easily deal more than 10,000 damage. He was simply too awesome.

After looking at the character attributes, Zhou Han opened the skill panel again.

[Sky Splitting Slash +2: Unleash 3 violent waves of sword aura and cause 5 times the attack damage to all enemy units within a 10-meter radius. Cooldown: 18 seconds.]

[Appraisal +2: Ignores the level difference and can see the attributes of any target. At the same time, it can identify the target's weaknesses. Attacking the target's weakness will cause 2 to 5 times the damage.]

Apart from the two skills above, what appeared below were the exclusive skills of the Swordsman.

[Sword Technique Expertise: Increases attack power by 10% when holding a sword.]

[Leap: Can reach a height of 1.5 meters when jumping.]

[Cross Slash: Deals 2.1 times the attack damage to targets within a 10-meter radius.]

[Myriad Swords Return: Locked (Active when attack power reaches 2,000).]

Four skills appeared on the panel.

Two support skills and two active skills. There was a big move, but it was in a locked state.

It required an attack power of 2,000 to activate.

Now, Zhou Han's attack power was only 900. There was still some distance, but it wouldn't be long.

Zhou Han immediately enhanced them.

Because he did not have many enhancement points left, he could only enhance them twice.

[Sword Technique Expertise +2: Increases attack power by 50% when holding a sword.]

[Leap +2: Can reach a height of 4 meters when jumping.]

[Cross Slash +2: Deals 5.2 times the attack damage to targets within a 15-meter radius in a straight line and has a 40% chance of repelling the enemy.]

Zhou Han was very satisfied with the enhanced effects.

When he saw the effect of [Leap], his eyes narrowed.

'I can jump four meters?'

'That's quite exaggerated!'

He immediately tried the skill. This heaven-defying jumping power felt quite good.

Zhou Han immediately felt as light as a swallow. If he enhanced it more in the future, he wondered if he could fly.

He looked forward to that day.

"Zhou Han, did you learn new skills?"

Han Xiangning asked in surprise after seeing Zhou Han's manipulation.

"I changed my class and became a Swordsman. How is it? Aren't I handsome? Are you in love with me?"

Zhou Han drew his mithril sword and pointed the blade forward in a cool pose.

At this moment, after Zhou Han changed his class to Sword Soul, his clothes changed.

His clothes fluttered in the wind, and he had the demeanor of a Swordsman.

His entire body was filled with a sharp sword aura. His originally handsome face coupled with his unique temperament now was quite attractive.

At least, the two women were stunned!

Chapter 23: Pincered by Two Women

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Ahem, you're really thick-skinned."

"Show-off! You—"

When the two women heard Zhou Han's words, their faces turned red. Of course, they could not admit their loss of composure and hurriedly denied it.

'Hah! Women. They refuse to admit it!'

"Then let's go! The monsters here are too weak and leveling up is too slow."

After all, the highest-level wild monster in the Fog Forest was only Level 10, so nothing good would drop.

The experience points were also low and could not meet Zhou Han's next upgrade requirements.

Zhou Han decided to upgrade to a higher-level map.

"Hey, wait, something's glowing there!"

Han Qinxue discovered another abnormality through her innate vision.

Zhou Han followed the direction she pointed and walked closer. It was actually beside Chen Beixuan's corpse.

It was a blueprint, shimmering with a faint golden light.

It was mostly pinned down by his body.

Zhou Han could not help but admire Han Qinxue's powerful eyesight. She could even discover it at such a tricky angle.

As he picked up the blueprint, a system prompt sounded.

[You have obtained a treasure map (Fog Forest). Do you want to activate the treasure-seeking route?]

Good lord, it was a treasure map.

'This kid was so lucky. Unfortunately, I've already killed him.'

Zhou Han sneered in his mind and chose to activate it.

[Activation successful. Route generated. Please view.]

Soon, Zhou Han opened the information on the map and was able to see the mark of the treasure.

His position to the treasure point had a crooked route.

"What, you said this was a treasure map? I love playing treasure hunts."

When the sisters heard this information, they were very excited.

"I wonder what kind of treasure awaits us."

"Then let's go. What are we waiting for?"

Zhou Han was also looking forward to it. Soon, the three of them set off.

After a winding route, they finally arrived at a cave.

The map showed exactly where the treasure was.

"It's dark inside. It's so eerie!" Han Xiangning said nervously.

"It looks like a very dangerous place." Han Qinxue was also a little flustered.

The cave in front of them was indeed very dark. The light was weak, and they could only see two or three meters.

It was normal for girls to be timid.

After all, they had only been in the Godfiend Continent for less than a day. It was impossible for them to change so quickly.

"Why don't you guys just wait outside?" Zhou Han asked tentatively when he saw how afraid they were.

"No, we're already here. We have to go in and take a look." Han Xiangning immediately rejected and said righteously.

"Yes, we have to exercise our abilities too. We can't keep holding you back!" Han Qinxue also expressed her opinion.

"Looks like you all want to be my good wives. Okay, let's go!"

Seeing that both women were self-reliant, Zhou Han was quite happy.

In that case, it would save him a lot of trouble in the future.

Satisfied, he nodded and led the way into the cave.

"Good wives? Zhou Han, you're taking advantage of us again."

Han Xiangning looked at Zhou Han's back and said ruthlessly, but a smile appeared on her face.

Inside the cave was a long aisle. The three of them walked for a while.

They found no danger other than darkness.

They finally found a huge treasure chest at the end of the aisle.

Zhou Han was about to walk over when he saw a black shadow flash beside the treasure chest.

"Hmm? Is this the guardian of the treasure chest?"

According to the usual game routine, to obtain the treasure, one had to defeat the boss guarding the treasure chest.

Therefore, Zhou Han guessed that this black shadow was guarding the treasure chest.

As expected, when it saw someone break in, the black shadow attacked Zhou Han.

[Blood Shadow Bug Demon]

[Grade: Silver]

[Level: 20]

[Life: 3,200]

[Attack: 413]

[Defense: 217]

[Skill 1: Insect Swarm: Summon a large number of insects to surround the target.]

[Skill 2: Block: There is a 20% chance of blocking fatal damage.]

[Description: It can summon many insects and is very difficult to deal with. Weakness: Fire attribute attack.]

Seeing that the Blood Shadow Bug Demon only had 3,200 HP, Zhou Han felt no pressure at all. He could settle it with two skills.

Both skills it had were unique.

One was a skill to summon insects, a group attack tactic.

There was also a blocking skill. It only had a 20% chance which wasn't very high.

The result of the appraisal was not explained in detail.

Seeing this, Zhou Han did not hesitate. He raised his sword and executed the [Cross Slash].

The violent sword blast slammed into it, leaving deep damage.

He was lucky enough to trigger the knockback effect.

The Blood Shadow Bug Demon was knocked back into the stone wall.

"Huh…"

It was clearly angered and used its [Insect Swarm] skill.

They could feel a tremor on the ground around them.

Then, countless insects crawled out from the ground and surrounded Zhou Han and the others.

"Ah! So many bugs!"

"It's disgusting. They're surrounding me!"

The densely packed bugs made one's scalp tingle.

Anyone with trypophobia would probably faint immediately.

The two women were shocked by the sight.

They panicked and jumped towards Zhou Han when they saw the swarm.

Zhou Han was a little speechless. They were too timid!

He was sandwiched between two women on either side of him. The two different fragrances were refreshing and did feel very comfortable. bed𝚗o𝚟𝚎𝚕.𝚌𝚘m

But now was not the time to think blindly. The danger ahead had to be dealt with.

"Hey, can you two calm down?"

In their current state, he could not release his skills at all!

"Bugs, I'm so scared! I can't take one look." Han Xiangning said uncomfortably.

She probably had trypophobia.

On the other hand, Han Qinxue immediately recovered.

Realizing that her chest was still pressed against Zhou Han's body, she immediately blushed.

Hastily she pulled away, her head bowed in thought.

On the other side, Han Xiangning still refused to let go.

Zhou Han let her be! He could fight her with one hand anyway.

"Let's see how I destroy the enemy!"

He pulled Han Xiangning into his arms and threw the Sky Splitting Slash.

Three waves of sword aura flew out and hit the Blood Shadow Bug Demon.

Ads by Pubfuture

Miss!

Miss!

Two consecutive dodges had been triggered. This luck was too much.

However, the third sword aura still pierced through it.

[You have successfully killed the Blood Shadow Bug Demon and obtained a gold treasure chest key.]

A gold key appeared in the package.

[Gold Treasure Chest Key: Can open treasure chests at or below Gold-grade. One-time consumable. It will disappear automatically after use.]

There were two types of treasure chests in the Godfiend Continent: One was the treasure chest rewarded by the system that could be opened without a key.

The other was the treasure chests scattered all over the map. One needed a key to open them.

Killing the Treasure Chest Guard had a 90% chance of dropping it.

Chapter 24: Enhancing Five Times, Gold Equipment

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This was also the information that Zhou Han had just learned through the system.

He looked at Han Xiangning, who was in his arms with her eyes closed, and said proudly, "Alright, it's fine now! How is it? Am I very handsome?"

As expected, after Zhou Han killed the Blood Shadow Bug Demon, the densely packed insects on the ground burrowed back into the ground.

"Don't lie to me. There are too many bugs to wipe out all of them so quickly."

Han Xiangning thought that Zhou Han was teasing her and obviously did not believe him.

"You're disobedient! Slap…"

Zhou Han slapped her butt.

Immediately, there was a crisp sound but his touch was very gentle.

Ads by Pubfuture

Han Xiangning was stunned, but she quickly stood up and blushed.

"Annoying! How embarrassing! You actually patted that place."

What greeted Zhou Han was a flurry of punches.

"I told you to be obedient. Let's see if you dare do it again!"

After Zhou Han finished speaking, he came to the treasure chest.

He picked up the key and inserted it into the lock of the treasure chest. With a gentle twist, it opened.

The moment the treasure chest opened, two golden lights shot into the sky.

It shone in the air for a while before falling into the treasure chest.

Good lord!

Gold-grade equipment dropped?

There seemed to be two of them.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he hurriedly fished into the treasure chest.

First, he took out a pair of shoes. It was a Gold-grade [Khorium War Boots].

Then there was a ring, a Gold-grade [True Spirit Ring].

As for the other four Silver-grade equipment, Zhou Han changed into them.

After gaining a lot, Zhou Han and the two women left.

Because he did not have many enhancement points, Zhou Han was not in a hurry to enhance them.

He found many wild monster gathering points and killed them crazily. Finally, he obtained tens of thousands of enhancement points.

"Phew! I'm so tired!"

Even though Zhou Han was powerful, he still felt a little tired from such a high-intensity battle.

[Your level has exceeded the limit of this map. Please leave in half an hour.]

[Otherwise, 1% of your experience will be deducted every minute.]

Was he beyond the level limit?

Zhou Han seemed to have remembered that the highest level in the Fog Forest was Level 10.

Now, his experience points had reached Level 10 (50.5%).

After hearing the system notification, Zhou Han stopped resting and rushed towards the exit.

It was not easy for him to obtain experience points. If they were deducted, he would be very worried.

On the way, Zhou Han enhanced all the useful equipment.

Soon, the attributes were displayed.

[Khorium War Boots +5]

[Grade: Gold]

[Attributes: Movement Speed+100, HP+2000]

[Special Effect 1: There is a 50% chance of being immune to a control skill.]

[Special Effect 2: In combat, movement speed increases by 60%.]

[Special Effect 3: Movement speed of all friendly units within 3 meters increased by 10%.]

[Description: A gorgeous and fast weapon for escaping.]

Impressive. After enhancing it five times, the effect was indeed different.

Three special effects had appeared. They were becoming more and more heaven-defying.

Special Effect 1's immunity rate had increased to 50%, and Special Effect 2 had also increased a little.

The new special effect 3 was actually a skill similar to an aura buff.

When he enhanced them more in the future, the buffs that his teammates would receive would become stronger. It would be difficult for them not to take off.

He looked at the attributes of the other Gold accessory.

Ads by Pubfuture

[True Spirit Ring +5]

[Grade: Gold]

[Attributes: Attack+700] 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝑚

[Special Effect 1: 20% probability of ignoring target's armor.]

[Special Effect 2: Every time you deal 100,000 damage, you will summon a True Spirit. (0/100,000)]

[Special Effect 3: Increases all attributes resistance by 20%.]

[Description: You'll gain the protection of the True Spirit. Its attack effect is very powerful.]

First, it added 700 attack.

Then, Special Effect 1 could ignore armor. This was very powerful. It was obvious that the defense of the boss in the later stages was very exaggerated.

With the special effect of ignoring armor, the output was much easier to achieve.

The effect of summoning a True Spirit was not detailed and was not very clear.

As for the increased resistance to all attributes, this was an all-rounded development!

[Mithril Belt +4]

[Grade: Silver]

[Attributes: HP+800, Defense+50]

[Special Effect 1: After entering combat state, maximum HP will increase by 50%. Immediately disappears after leaving combat state for 10 seconds.]

[Special Effect 2: After being attacked, your attack power will increase by 30%. It cannot be stacked. If you do not receive any subsequent attacks within 10 seconds, the buff will disappear.]

[Description: Forged with mithril, performed very well in combat.]

After all, it was Silver-grade and could only be enhanced four times. The effect was not as heaven-defying as the previous Gold-grade performance.

Zhou Han did not look at them and directly put them on.

If other players knew that Zhou Han actually despised such top-grade equipment, they would likely curse him.

The remaining three pieces of Silver equipment either had poor attributes or were repeated parts. After Zhou Han enhanced them twice, he threw them to the two women.

It caused the two women to exclaim in surprise, their beautiful eyes shining.

At the same time, they confirmed that Zhou Han's talent was definitely related to equipment enhancement.

After all, the Silver equipment that he had obtained now could surpass ordinary Gold equipment.

However, they would definitely not tell anyone. Even if they did, with Zhou Han's strength, who could do anything to him?

After the equipment was updated, Zhou Han opened the character attributes panel.

[Zhou Han]

[Level: 10 (50.5%)]

[Class: Sword Soul (First Awakening at Level 25)]

[Health: 3,000+4,400]

[Attack: 500+1000]

[Defense: 100+300]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]

Zhou Han nodded in satisfaction as his attributes had increased greatly.

Next came a display of the equipment's attributes.

[Weapon: Mithril Sword +3 (Triple Attack, Slaying)]

[Accessory: True Spirit Ring +5 (Ignore Armor, Summon True Spirit, 20% All Resistances)]

[Helmet: Grand Feather Helmet +3 (20% Damage Reduction, 30% Critical Hit Resistance)]

[Clothing: Mystic Light Robe +3 (500 HP per second, 40% Evasion)]

[Wrist Guard: Green Steel Bracer +3 (400 HP per second, 20% Damage Reduction)]

[Belt: Mithril Belt +4 (Battle State +50% HP Upper Limit, Attack +30%)]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Leg Guard: Tiger Skin Leg Guard +3 (Ignore the Terrain, Target's Attack Speed -10%)]

[Boots: Khorium War Boots +5 (50% Immunity, Combat State +60% Movement Speed, +10% Movement Speed Aura)]

The wild monsters in the Fog Forest were too weak to withstand Zhou Han's ordinary attack.

The experience gained was very little.

Even if there wasn't a forced reminder from the system, he would have changed location anyway.

This was because the Fog Forest was no longer challenging and he could not obtain anything good.

The closer they got to the entrance, the more players there were.

After all, the level of the wild monsters here was the lowest. It was at the edge of the Fog Forest.

Most players could only kill Level 1 wild monsters.

If they encountered a Level 2 wild monster, they could only walk around it and not even take a look.

Chapter 25: Exit Blocked, Paying a Toll?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Wow, little brother, what kind of shoes are these? They're all shining golden!"

"Can you bring me along to farm monsters? I know many moves!"

"Handsome, take me. Otherwise, I won't be able to survive in this dangerous world alone."

"As long as you carry me, I'm yours. I'll obey any order you give me without question!"

...

Suddenly, a group of young ladies appeared in front of him. When they saw Zhou Han's handsome appearance, their eyes lit up.

That was not all.

Most importantly, when they saw the equipment on Zhou Han, they knew that it was not ordinary.

Ads by Pubfuture

Therefore, they immediately went forward to flatter Zhou Han, hoping that he would take a fancy to them.

Only then would they have a better chance of surviving this dangerous world.

They had tried to kill monsters themselves, but they could not defeat them at all.

Those with extremely poor talent could only survive by becoming the vassals of others.

Therefore, when they saw that Zhou Han was handsome and powerful, they hurriedly swarmed up, hoping that they would be chosen successfully.

This was the first time Zhou Han had seen such a situation. So many women were pouncing on him.

There were all kinds of beauties. Some of them were dressed very boldly. They probably worked in that profession before transmigrating. Otherwise, they wouldn't have said such tempting words.

He was too startled to react and was instantly surrounded.

"Hey, don't pull my clothes! Yes, it's you. Don't touch me!"

Damn, these women were crazy!

This was under the premise that he did not expose his identity. If he revealed that he was Zhou Han, this group of women would definitely eat him alive.

Just as Zhou Han could not break free and wanted to use force…

Han Xiangning rushed over to save him. It was better for the woman to deal with the woman.

"What are you doing? Go away, the team is full!"

Han Xiangning was furious.

She immediately stood in front of Zhou Han like she was protecting her child and chased away these shameless female players.

"You bunch of vixens, get lost now, or I won't be polite!"

Han Xiangning took out her iron sword and warned them threateningly.

The message was clear. She was declaring her status.

'This is the person that I have my eyes on, don't even think about having any bad ideas, you coquettish women.'

"Tsk, why are you so pushy? You're just relying on your beauty. Why are you so arrogant?"

"Exactly. You're so unreasonable."

"Sisters, let's not take this lying down. Let's go!"

Although this group of women still did not show mercy with their words, their auras had clearly become timid.

The current Han Xiangning was already Level 9. She was covered in excellent equipment, and it was obvious that she was not to be trifled with.

They were not fools. All of them were very observant and immediately walked away cursing.

"Sigh, actually, they're also pitiful people. If we hadn't met Zhou Han, we might have ended up like this!"

Han Qinxue watched the group of women leave, her eyes filled with emotions.

How lucky she was to have met Zhou Han?

She had no strength and was so beautiful. She would definitely become someone else's plaything.

She looked at Zhou Han, her eyes filled with inexplicable emotions.

Zhou Han also noticed Han Qinxue's gaze. This was the first time he had seen her with such an expression. He had to flirt with this mature older sister.

"What's wrong? Are you mesmerized by my handsomeness?" Zhou Han touched his hair and teased.

"Yes, I'm a little tempted."

Unexpectedly, Han Qinxue blurted it out. It was completely inconsistent with her usual mature and reserved self.

Zhou Han was stunned when he heard this and did not know what to say.

"Sis, are you serious?" Han Xiangning pouted and asked aggrievedly.

"Ah! Oh, I was joking, hehe!" Han Qinxue said hurriedly and laughed awkwardly.

She also hated herself for saying such a thing.

Her sister clearly liked Zhou Han. It was easy to cause misunderstandings.

"Sister, you're usually so serious. I didn't expect you to like to joke!"

Although she said it with a smile, her eyes were full of suspicion.

Could it be that her sister really liked Zhou Han?! After all, Zhou Han was such an outstanding man. Very few women could resist his charm.

For some reason that thought made her feel sick and heavy inside.

"Let's go! It's almost dark. It's not safe outside the city at night."

Zhou Han hurriedly said, breaking the quiet atmosphere.

Anyway, after the system's prompt, the night was extremely dangerous.

Zhou Han did not say what the danger was, nor would he risk his life.

Anyway, he had to rush back to Blue Thunder City before dark.

He was not so arrogant as to think that he was invincible just because he was ranked first.

This was the Godfiend Continent, a world where gods and demons existed.

His current strength was far from enough, so he had to constantly become stronger in order to resist the gods.

The exit was not far ahead, but the situation was strange.

Zhou Han stopped in his tracks and saw the exit.

He happened to be blocked by a few people. They were all holding weapons and standing there looking fierce.

There were several pieces of Bronze-grade equipment on them.

This configuration was considered very luxurious among ordinary players.

"Well, what's going on? What's this crowd doing stuck in here?"

Zhou Han had some guesses, but he still asked the person passing by.

"This is a toll. If you don't pay the fee, you're not allowed to go out," said Passerby A.

"Won't everyone join forces to resist?"

"Their leader is Wang Teng. His awakened talent is very powerful. He has been bragging on the public chat that he has the potential to become an emperor in the future," Passerby B said.

"He recruited a group of brothers who were all very talented and did crazy things. We weaklings can't beat them at all. We have to pay up honestly."

Zhou Han was speechless. Wang Teng was really f*cking talented!

In doing so, he instantly accumulated a sum of wealth and distanced himself from the other players.

Unfortunately, he met Zhou Han and was destined to be doomed.

"Stop right there. Fifty copper coins per person for the toll."

Seeing Zhou Han walking over, a fierce voice sounded.

Zhou Han did not stop. His expression was indifferent as he ignored the other party's reprimand.

"I told you to stop. Didn't you hear me? Kid, do you have a death wish?"

This lackey's face was filled with anger. He pulled out his iron saber and rushed towards Zhou Han.

"Die!"

Zhou Han directly slashed this lackey with his sword.

The remaining lackeys were clearly frightened by Zhou Han's actions.

They didn't expect someone to dare to challenge Wang Teng's authority. Was he tired of living?

"What? Is the kid trying to make a scene?"

"You should see whose territory this is. Are you blind?"

"I feel like we should call Brother Teng over and let him bleed."

"For your information, you've pissed off the wrong person. Just you wait."

Chapter 26: Leader Wang Teng, Seven Heavenly Kings

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The lackeys were a little terrified, but then they were filled with anger.

This person in front of him really did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. He dared to come over alone to cause trouble. Who gave him the courage?

Not to mention Wang Teng's own strength, even the few experts under him could crush this fellow in front of him.

These lackeys were filled with confidence. As long as Wang Teng came over, the matter would be resolved easily.

"Alright, I'll wait here. I want to see how capable this Wang Teng is." Zhou Han said casually as he leaned against a tree.

"Kid, no matter how arrogant you are now, you'll regret it later. Since you provoke Brother Teng, you're dead." Another underling hooted.

"Well, you sound like you have a point. I'll deal with you first!"

A sword light flashed, and this arrogant lackey was instantly reduced to dust.

Ads by Pubfuture

After all, he had been nagging like a fly, making Zhou Han feel very annoyed.

As expected, after the attack, the lackeys present kept quiet out of fear. They became much more obedient, but the anger in their eyes intensified.

The commotion here was very loud, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Although they didn't dare to provoke Wang Teng, they couldn't help but watch the show. Soon, they started chatting.

"Who is this young man? He's so bold to fight with Wang Teng. Is he tired of living?"

"Wang Teng killed two B-rank talents not long ago. I suspect his talent should be A-rank or above."

"Damn, this is too terrifying. This kid in front of me is in trouble. He provoked someone he shouldn't have!"

"Young people don't know their place. They haven't been tempered by society. They're reckless."

"This is going to cost him his life. What a shame!"

"Shh! Keep your voice down. Wang Teng is here. Don't let him hear our discussion, or there will be trouble."

Everyone fell silent as the last man spoke.

They looked at Zhou Han with endless pity. Soon, this person would die under Wang Teng's sword!

A dignified young man walked over. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He was extraordinarily handsome and looked very imposing.

No wonder he always bragged that he had the potential of an emperor. Just his appearance alone was extraordinary.

Wang Teng, dressed in white, walked over slowly and gracefully.

There were seven people behind him. They were all possessors of good talent and were known as the Seven Heavenly Kings.

The first thing Wang Teng noticed wasn't Zhou Han, but the two women beside him.

After all, the two women were too beautiful and dazzling.

He was immediately stunned and a little jealous. This kid was really f*cking lucky.

He actually had such peerless beauties by his side, and two of them at that.

Wang Teng was very unhappy. The women around him were ugly compared to the two women.

He immediately said gloomily, "Kid, you're quite arrogant. How dare you cause trouble in my territory?"

"I'm quite arrogant. I didn't expect you to see through me." Zhou Han dug his ears and said casually.

"Looks like you're a talent. You just have to kneel down and kowtow three times. Be my lackey and I'll let you off today!"

Wang Teng also knew that Zhou Han had killed his underling. This meant that the other party was quite strong. Hence, it wasn't a bad thing if he could take him in.

"Well, your suggestion is good. If you cut off one of your hands, we'll forget about it here today!" Zhou Han said with a smile.

"Hahaha… Good, very good. This is the first time someone dares to speak to me like this."

"You've managed to get under my skin. All of you, attack together. Break every bone in his body."

Wang Teng spoke through gritted teeth, his eyes blazing with anger.

After hearing the order, the Seven Heavenly Kings behind Wang Teng instantly attacked.

All of them were agile and muscular. Like ferocious tigers, they pounced at Zhou Han.

Ads by Pubfuture

On the other hand, Zhou Han, who was 1.8 meters tall, seemed a little weak compared to them.

All seven of them looked fierce and cruel.

"With the Seven Heavenly Kings attacking at the same time, it's basically a death sentence."

"This young man has no idea what's coming. He's hit a brick wall."

"I've never seen anyone who dares to go against Wang Teng have a good ending."

"If it were me, I would choose to kowtow to Wang Teng and beg for his forgiveness. After all, dignity is nothing compared to life!"

"You're really an expert. Great minds think alike!"

The onlookers felt a little bored.

This was because there was no chance of survival if the Seven Heavenly Kings attacked at the same time. The outcome was obvious.

Everyone present knew the strength of the Seven Heavenly Kings.

"Die, kid! Be careful in your next life. There are some people you can't afford to offend!"

The seven of them instantly surrounded Zhou Han, their eyes fierce and their expressions cold.

"Offend nobodies like you?" Zhou Han's lips curled up, his face full of mockery.

"Hmm? Your life is about to end… Ah…"

The seven of them were about to say something harsh when they felt a sharp pain in their bodies.

After a few screams, they lost consciousness permanently.

Their mutilated bodies fell from the air, losing all signs of vitality.

"What? You? How can you be so strong?"

Wang Teng's heart skipped a beat when he saw the seven of them being instantly killed.

Even with his strength, it was very difficult for him to kill the seven of them.

Not to mention that the other party had insta-killed them?

The difference in strength was obvious.

This was huge trouble!

"You're still too young to kill me."

Zhou Han's expression was calm as if he had just dealt with an insignificant matter.

"Are… are you Zhou Han?"

Wang Teng instantly remembered the god of slaughter—Zhou Han.

He was so powerful. Who else could it be but Zhou Han?

Who else had the ability to own two peerless beauties?

Wang Teng guessed it immediately and panicked. Why was he so unlucky to meet Zhou Han?

"You've got some sense, but you're about to be a corpse!"

Ads by Pubfuture

Zhou Han admitted indifferently, his voice neither sad nor happy.

Hearing this, the crowd stirred.

How could they have known that this young man was actually Zhou Han?

Obviously, these people were not present when he killed the World Boss and did not recognize him.

However, in the chat area, Zhou Han's deeds had already been widely circulated.

No wonder the other party was so confident that he could challenge Wang Teng's faction alone.

Only Zhou Han had such courage and strength.

"No, don't do this! I was blind to provoke you. Spare me!" 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝘦𝘵

Wang Teng looked terrified and kept begging for mercy. His arrogant demeanor had long disappeared.

"If I don't wipe out my enemies, they will grow and threaten those around me. You must die." Zhou Han shook his head coldly.

Chapter 27: Establishing Prestige, Famous

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After hearing Zhou Han's words, despair flashed across Wang Teng's face.

Then, he started to go crazy and made his final struggle.

"It won't be that easy to kill me. I'll fight you to the death. You think I'm really afraid of you?"

Wang Teng held the sword horizontally in front of his chest and infused his strength into it.

"Fallen Leaf Sword – Autumn Wind Sweep, kill!"

A sword aura swept up countless leaves in the air and charged towards Zhou Han. However, it was Wang Teng's desperate attack.

Zhou Han didn't expect Wang Teng to obtain a skill.

After all, before changing classes, skills were very difficult to obtain.

Ads by Pubfuture

This was also why Wang Teng dared to be so arrogant.

Facing this skill, most players could not withstand it at all.

"How dare you show off your insignificant skills in front of an expert? I'll show you a true sword technique."

"Cross Slash!"

A sword aura in the shape of a cross blasted Wang Teng's skill with a violent aura.

Boom!

With a loud bang, Wang Teng's skill was instantly destroyed.

The cross-shaped sword aura didn't slow down and pierced through Wang Teng.

"Good, this is really satisfying. Wang Teng has been collecting tolls. It's karma that he died!"

"Zhou Han is really helping the people get rid of evil. He has strength and the demeanor of a hero."

"Go, go, go. We'll exit now. It would be bad if another bully came to collect the toll."

"Let's clean up Wang Teng's lackeys first."

Soon, the lackeys who had lost Wang Teng's protection were all killed by the people who had been holding grudges for a long time.

Then, someone sent what happened here to the chat.

Everyone praised Zhou Han for being chivalrous and warm-hearted.

[You have established great prestige in the hearts of more than 30,000 players.]

[You have earned the title 'Famous'.]

'Hmm? Is there a reward?'

After hearing the system notification, Zhou Han was stunned.

He couldn't stand Wang Teng's actions and killed him.

Unexpectedly, he had established a lofty image in the hearts of many players.

The appearance of the reward was also a pleasant surprise.

'I wonder what that title does.'

Zhou Han immediately opened it and read it.

[Famous]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Effect: After equipping it, immediately increases attack by 100 points. After removing it, the effect disappears in 3 seconds.]

[Description: Each player can only equip one title.]

The effect of adding 100 attack power was very good.

"Give it three enhancements."

When Zhou Han saw something, he habitually enhanced it.

As expected, title-type items could also be enhanced.

[You have activated Talent—Infinite Enhancement. Enhancement successful. Please check the attributes.]

[Famous +3]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Effect: After equipping it, immediately increases attack by 500 points. After removing it, the effect disappears in 3 seconds.]

[Description: Each player can only equip one title.]

Not bad. It added 500 attack.

Ads by Pubfuture

After equipping it, Zhou Han could feel a force surging into his body.

'Good. It feels good to be stronger.'

"Fallen Leaf Sword Technique?"

Zhou Han picked up the cultivation technique that Wang Teng had dropped. There were four words written on it.

Wang Teng had used it before he died. Its power was average.

However, in the early stages, it was already extremely lucky to have a cultivation technique.

How could he be picky?

[You have obtained the Fallen Leaf Sword Technique. Do you want to learn it?]

"Learn!"

In any case, there was no harm in having more skills. Why not learn them?

[Learned successfully. Skill activated. Please check the skill panel!]

[Fallen Leaf Sword Technique]

[Grade: Bronze]

[Skill 1: Fallen Leaf Sword (Deals 1.2 times the attack power to a single target within a 3-meter radius. Cooldown: 30 seconds.)]

[Skill 2: Wind Thunder Dance (Locked. Will only be unlocked after reaching a certain level of proficiency in Skill 1.)]

This cultivation technique was Bronze-grade, with a total of two skills.

Skill 1, Falling Leaf Sword, was a single-target skill. The damage it dealt was very weak.

Zhou Han enhanced it three more times. After checking again, he realized that the effect was not bad.

[Fallen Leaf Sword +3: Deals 5.5 times the attack damage to single targets within a 10-meter radius. There is a 10% chance of dealing true damage. Cooldown: 20 seconds.]

It could actually deal true damage. This was even more impressive than armor breaking.

True Damage: Cannot be immune, cannot be dodged, cannot be absorbed by shields, and ignores defense.

While there were still many enhancement points, Zhou Han also enhanced his other skills.

[Appraisal +2: Ignores the level difference and can see the attributes of any target. At the same time, it can identify the target's weaknesses. Attacking the target's weakness will cause 2 to 5 times the damage.]

[Sky Splitting Slash +4: Unleash 5 violent waves of sword aura and cause 8 times the attack damage to all enemy units within a 12-meter radius. Cooldown: 15 seconds.]

[Sword Technique Expertise +4: Increases attack power by 120% when holding a sword.]

[Leap +4: Can reach a height of 8 meters when jumping. Cooldown: 8 seconds.]

[Cross Slash +4: Deals 10 times the attack damage to targets within a 15-meter radius in a straight line and has a 70% chance of repelling the enemy. Cooldown: 13 seconds.]

The damage multiplied and increased tremendously.

Now, he could easily deal tens of thousands of damage. It was simply too awesome.

He was taking off!

Zhou Han's mood instantly improved, and the three of them returned to Blue Thunder City.

"We'll have to find somewhere to stay."

Although every player had a three-day novice protection period and could stay in the city for free, no accommodation was provided. Those who did not want to spend money could sleep on the free streets or spend money to stay in inns.

Of course, Zhou Han would not sleep on the streets. Anyway, he had more than a hundred gold coins on him now, so he could still afford this small amount of spending.

After searching for a long time, he finally saw an inn called the Red Dust Inn.

"No spare rooms?"

Zhou Han was a little dumbfounded. Why was there such a melodramatic plot on the Godfiend Continent?

"Yes, there's only one suite left. Do you still want it? There are customers waiting at the back!"

Ads by Pubfuture

As expected, there were a few more guests behind them. If Zhou Han and the others did not stay, they would probably be reserved by others.

Zhou Han looked at the two women helplessly.

It did not matter to him. Living with two beauties was his fortune.

Now, he was asking the opinion of the two women.

"We'll stay! Anyway, it's a suite, not the same room. It's nothing."

The two women's faces were flushed. After hesitating for a moment, they whispered in embarrassment.

It was mainly because they had searched for a long time and the previous inns were full.

"Okay, we'll take this room. Here are three gold coins. I'll book it for a month."

Zhou Han nodded and slapped the gold coins on the counter. He took the key and went upstairs.

As expected, it was a two-bedroom suite. Zhou Han found a second bedroom and washed up before lying on the bed.

Chapter 28: New Function, Open Pot

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After sleeping for a while, in a daze, he heard water flowing next door.

'Hmm? Why is there still heat coming?'

He could hear the two women next door laughing.

Zhou Han was a little speechless.

'It's already so late. Why aren't they sleeping? What are they doing?!'

In the next room, it was foggy. The sisters were washing up.

Han Xiangning looked cautiously at the window and asked softly, "Sister, do you think Zhou Han will peek? This window is made of paper."

"Zhou Han shouldn't be that kind of person. Although he likes us, he's a good man."

Ads by Pubfuture

Through a day of contact, the mature Han Qinxue had clearly figured out Zhou Han's personality.

"Hmph, is Zhou Han as good as you say? Do you like him too?" Han Xiangning pouted unhappily and asked faintly.

"No, don't talk nonsense." Han Qinxue blushed and quickly denied it.

"You really don't?"

Han Xiangning didn't believe her, but her hand moved towards Han Qinxue's chest.

"Stop touching!" Han Qinxue slapped her sister's hand away.

"Sister, how did you develop so well there!"

Han Xiangning said enviously. Actually, her breasts were not small either, just slightly inferior to Han Qinxue's.

"What are you thinking about all day?!" Han Qinxue knocked her head.

"Sis, look at that corner! Something's there!"

"What is it? It's, ah … a snake."

Han Qinxue turned to look. Her eyesight was excellent.

When she saw that it was a snake, she jumped up in fright.

Seeing the little snake twisting towards her, Han Xiangning screamed in fear and ran out of the bathtub.

"Hmm?"

"What happened?"

Zhou Han heard two screams that came from the next room.

His expression immediately darkened. Could the two women be in danger?

One had to know that this was not Earth. There was danger everywhere.

The safety of Blue Thunder City was only relative. It was said that there were many perverts in the city, and all of them were skilled in martial arts.

Zhou Han did not think too much about it and hurriedly rushed to the next room.

"What happened…?"

Zhou Han was about to ask, but…

He saw an image that made his blood boil. For a moment, he was completely stunned. The rest of his words escaped him.

The two women stood there in a panic, their bodies completely exposed.

Zhou Han, who was a virgin, had never seen such a scene before. His nose bled immediately.

"There's a snake. Kill it!"

After hearing their words, Zhou Han heaved a sigh of relief.

He thought that they had encountered some danger but it was just a small snake.

He immediately slashed with his sword, killing the little snake.

"Ah! You pervert!"

"Get out, get out now!"

Due to their nervousness just now, the two women finally realized their current state.

As they found cover, they berated Zhou Han and chased him out.

Their eyes were filled with shame, anger, and grievance.

"Ah, oh, I'll be off in a minute …"

Seeing the two girls' big reaction, Zhou Han immediately came back to his senses.

If he escaped any later, he would be killed by the two women's murderous gazes.

'What!'

'It's a classic case of turning on your benefactor!'

'It's one thing not to thank me for all the help I've given you, but to think you'd send me away.'

As he lay in bed, the image of what had happened kept coming back to him.

It made Zhou Han toss and turn, unable to fall asleep.

What a precious sight!

Why were the sisters so beautiful?

Could it be genetic?

"Ah, how embarrassing. Zhou Han saw everything. How am I going to face him in the future!"

Han Xiangning covered her face with the blanket, her face flushed and hot. When she thought of the scene just now, she wished she could crawl underground.

"It's fine for you. After all, you two are in love. I'm the one who's losing out. I didn't even complain about being seen, yet, you're screaming like this."

As Han Qinxue spoke, she couldn't help but think of Zhou Han's embarrassment and burst out laughing.

"You can still laugh?"

"What's done is done. What else can we do? Do you want to see his body in return?"

"Sis, you're awful…"

"Alright, go to sleep!"

The next morning, Zhou Han woke up refreshed.

When he went to call for the sisters, he found them already out the door.

They even left a note saying that they were killing monsters by themselves today and that Zhou Han should not worry.

'Oh, they're up early!'

It seemed that they were too shy to face him.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han found it a little funny.

After breakfast at the inn, Zhou Han began to complete his goal for the day.

First, he set a small goal to reach Level 20.

[Server Announcement: This is the second day of the Godfiend Continent. 16,359 players have died. Remaining players: 83,641.]

[The new function 'Open Pot' has been activated. The location has been marked on the map. Players, please take a look.]

'Open Pot?'

Why did it sound like some game on Earth?

Zhou Han immediately asked about the system.

He quickly learned some of the content.

Each player can go to the pottery merchant at 6 AM every morning to claim a clay pot for free.

There was basically anything in the clay pot. What could be obtained depended on luck.

Zhou Han immediately felt that it was quite interesting. Since it was a free clay pot, he would go over and take a look.

He followed the map to the location of the pottery merchant.

At this moment, there was already a sea of people. Many players were squeezed here, and everyone was very excited.

"Young man, these are your clay pots for today. Take them! If you think they're not enough, you can buy them from me. They only cost ten gold coins each. They're good and cheap."

Fortunately, this pottery merchant's perception range was very wide.

Zhou Han had just walked over when the pottery merchant initiated a conversation with him from ten meters away. He did not have to squeeze in.

[You have obtained an ordinary clay pot.]

[Ordinary Pot]: There is a small chance of obtaining a high-quality item.

Zhou Han opened it in his heart.

[You opened an ordinary clay pot.]

[You received one gold coin.]

Sure enough, it was at a normal level. 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝑜𝑟𝘨

Zhou Han did not expect anything good to come out.

Ads by Pubfuture

He could not be lucky each time.

"Damn! I'm too unlucky. Opened three pots and only got five gold pieces. Big loss."

"Why is it so expensive? Ten gold coins for a pot. I have to be crazy to buy it."

"It's still too hard to change fate. The odds are so damn low, I'd rather go fight monsters."

"I hope I can change my fate today!"

"I'm taking off. I found a Gold-grade staff."

"What! I'm so jealous!"

...

Many players were opening pots there. Those who did not get anything were cursing.

Those who dropped good items were overjoyed.

Chapter 29: Exchange of Items, Searching for Xiao Rou

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han only smiled and did not intend to buy the clay pot.

After all, 10 gold coins each was very expensive in the early stages.

The odds were against it, anyway. If he bought it, he'd be at a disadvantage.

'I might as well spend the coins on something useful.'

Just as he was about to leave, another system announcement sounded.

[Server Announcement: Player Ou Huang has drawn King-grade equipment—Sea King Helmet.]

[Server Announcement: Player Gou Tuo has obtained a Starlight-grade weapon…]

[Server Announcement: Player Jia Feiqiu has drawn a King-grade accessory…]

Ads by Pubfuture

...

The consecutive announcements completely woke up the players present.

Be it Starlight or King, as long as one obtained such an item, they would definitely be ahead of most players in the early stages.

Moreover, their ability to survive in the Godfiend Continent would be even stronger.

Everyone went crazy. If others could drop top-grade equipment, so could they.

There were many players with such thoughts.

Everyone was spending gold coins on clay pots, making the pottery merchant grin from ear to ear.

"F*ck, why are these people all so lucky? If it weren't for the real world, I would have suspected that they were scammers."

"Buy another one and try one last time. If not, I'm out."

"I don't believe it today. I insist on getting top-grade equipment."

"Ten, boss. I want ten in a row."

"I quit. I'll chop off my hands if I buy more. The odds are so low that I'm lucky I have any pants left."

"I'm so unlucky today. I'll try again tomorrow!"

Many players were impulsive and lost a lot of money. All of them wanted to cry but had no tears.

They could not compare to the lucky ones!

[You received 1 gold coin.]

[You received 5 gold coins.]

[You received 3 gold coins.]

After hearing the system's announcement, Zhou Han couldn't help but buy four clay pots to see if a miracle would happen.

The result was obvious. A complete loss.

Hopefully, the last one was good!

[You have obtained Overlord Body Potion.]

"Hmm?"

"Overlord Body Potion?"

Zhou Han's eyes lit up. It sounded good.

[Overlord Body Potion]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Effect: After using it, you will be in the Overlord Body state for 30 seconds.]

[Description: In the Overlord Body state, you cannot be affected by the enemy's control skills.]

He took a look. It was just ordinary quality and could be considered a consolation prize!

After enhancing it twice, the effects were out. There were multiple damage reduction characteristics.

[Overlord Body Potion +2]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Effect: After using it, you will be in the Overlord Body state for two minutes. The damage you suffer will be reduced by 50%.]

[Description: In the Overlord Body state, you cannot be affected by the enemy's control skills.]

"Right, I can use the Heart Protecting Lotus to exchange for others' items!"

Zhou Han suddenly thought of this. Perhaps he could exchange it for what he needed.

After all, there was no pot function yesterday, so everyone was penniless.

Things were different now. Many players had obtained high-quality items.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han immediately took action.

Zhou Han directly enhanced the remaining three Heart Protecting Lotuses three times.

After consuming it, it would increase 1,500 HP. In the early stages, it was definitely a life-saving divine artifact.

Ads by Pubfuture

Zhou Han planned to test the waters first and sent a message on the public chat.

"A life-saving divine artifact, Heart Protecting Lotus. If anyone has anything good, you can trade with me!"

After sending the message, the players in the chat area were envious.

The HP increase effect caused a huge sensation.

"It's awesome, increasing 1,500 HP. As expected of Big Boss Zhou Han, it's a top-grade item."

"If I consume this Heart Protecting Lotus, I'll definitely soar in the early stages. Killing monsters will be easy."

"What a pity. I didn't get anything good. This thing is destined not to be mine."

"I'll open the clay pot now. I hope I can make it in time."

...

Soon, he received many private messages.

After choosing, there were two items that were more useful.

Zhou Han directly exchanged in the trading area.

They were the [Intermediate Experience Card] and [Guard Card].

Zhou Han did not exchange the remaining Heart Protecting Lotus for the time being.

Anyway, the transaction information was still hanging. He would go up and take a look later. Perhaps there would be something good. 𝚋edn𝚘𝚟el.co𝚖

[Intermediate Experience Card +4]

[Grade: Silver]

[Effect: After using it, you can obtain 7 times the EXP within 5 hours. (Including killing monsters, completing missions, and other EXP.)]

[Description: A one-time consumable that will disappear automatically after use. When in a team, the team members will share the experience buff.]

Seven times the experience was very impressive.

It was just a pity that Han Qinxue and her sister were not in the team and had missed a great opportunity.

[Guard Card +4]

[Grade: Silver]

[Effect: After use, you can summon a guard to protect the summoner for 3 hours.]

[Description: The summoned guard's combat power is twice that of the summoner. A one-time consumable that will disappear automatically after use.]

The upgraded Guard Card was also very effective.

If he summoned it, the guard that came out would be twice as strong as him.

It could be said to be very strong. His life was greatly assured with it.

After all the preparations were done, Zhou Han headed to a new area.

Opening the map, Zhou Han searched for his destination—the Valley of the Undead.

The wild monsters there were all Level 10 to Level 40, which suited Zhou Han's current strength.

The entrance to the Valley of the Undead was very deserted. After all, Zhou Han was the only one in this area who had reached Level 10.

As he approached, he saw only an old man nearby, pacing back and forth anxiously.

After seeing Zhou Han, his eyes were filled with joy as he hurriedly said, "Lad, are you heading for the Valley of the Dead?"

"Yes, sir. What can I do for you?"

Zhou Han had some guesses. It should be the start of a mission.

Perhaps it was because he was the first to reach Level 10!

No one was snatching this mission from him.

"I have a favor to ask of you. Please get my granddaughter back."

"Tell me slowly, what exactly happened?"

"My granddaughter, Xiao Rou, entered the Valley of the Undead yesterday to train, but she hasn't returned yet. She must be in danger. Ah, the little girl is making me worry. I'm so anxious."

[A new mission has appeared: Find Xiao Rou. Do you accept?]

"Accepted!"

Usually, the rewards for missions were a lot of experience points. It was much easier than simply killing monsters to level up. Zhou Han had no reason to refuse.

[Find Xiao Rou]

[Description: Save Xiao Rou and bring her to Grandpa.]

[Status: Incomplete]

[Location: Netherworld Swamp (Coordinates: …)]

"Old sir, don't worry. Leave this matter to me."

Zhou Han patted his chest and promised.

"Thank you very much. The Valley of the Dead is not simple. You have to be careful!"

Zhou Han nodded and walked into the entrance.

Chapter 30: Poisoned Xiao Rou, Searching for the Antidote Pill

As the light from the entrance circulated, he opened his eyes again to a dark valley.

[Current territory: Valley of the Undead. This is a combat area. Please pay attention to your safety.]

[Attention: This area is a public area. Players from other regions may enter. Please treat it with caution.]

'Players from other regions can come too?'

'They can cross servers?'

Zhou Han immediately felt that it was interesting.

There should be foreign players in the other areas!

He had to increase his strength as well.

Ads by Pubfuture

Although he was undoubtedly the first in Zone 666, Zhou Han did not know what the other regions were like.

Therefore, no matter what, increasing his strength was his top priority.

Zhou Han looked at the map. He was now 30 to 40 kilometers away from the Netherworld Swamp.

Moreover, he would pass by many wild monster strongholds along the way. There would definitely be battles.

Hopefully, five hours would be enough.

Soon, Zhou Han encountered the first wild monster stronghold—Skeleton Ridge.

In the mountains, broken corpses could be seen everywhere, and the surroundings were filled with a sinister and decaying aura.

Low roars sounded in Zhou Han's ears.

[Black Skeleton Armor]

[Grade: Silver]

[Level: 12]

[Life: 1,400]

[Attack: 422]

[Defense: 218]

[Skill 1: Black Armor Protection: Increases defense by 3 times within 1 minute. Cooldown: 20 seconds.]

[Skill 2: Bone Spur Assault: Use hard bone spikes to deal 2.3 times the attack damage to a single enemy. Cooldown: 22 seconds.]

[Description: Extremely powerful defense, recommended to carry armor-piercing equipment. Weaknesses are light and fire.]

The Valley of the Undead was indeed filled with powerful monsters!

He did not expect his first battle to be at the Silver-grade.

Even if the other party had triple the defense, it was only slightly more than 600 points.

Zhou Han's current attack power was 2,000. Coupled with the various attack bonuses in combat, the black-armored skeletons in front of him was nothing to worry about.

A black-armored skeleton's skull flickered with a green light.

It sneered cruelly and walked towards Zhou Han with huge bone sticks in its hands.

"Die!"

After using the Intermediate Experience Card, Zhou Han threw out a [Cross Slash].

-30574

-34892

He dealt more than 30,000 damage each hit.

A pile of shattered bones fell to the floor.

Immediately after, another [Sky Splitting Slash] killed most of the remaining skeletons.

Then, Zhou Han dealt with the remaining ones using normal attacks.

He didn't waste too much time. After all, EXP buff time was very precious.

[New skill has been unlocked. Please check it!]

Hearing the system notification, Zhou Han guessed that the second skill of the Lin Family Sword Technique had been unlocked.

After all, he had been using the Sky Splitting Slash all this time, so his proficiency was definitely enough.

After opening it, as expected, [Eight Directional Heaven Splitter] was successfully unlocked.

[Eight Directional Heaven Splitter +4: Gather all the strength in your body and slash the ground with your sword. Deals 9 times the damage to enemies within an 8-meter radius. They will be stunned for 3 seconds. Cooldown: 20 seconds.]

After upgrading, Zhou Han tested it.

Not to mention how powerful it was, simply the image was shocking. The ground was cut open, and the cracks extended in all directions.

Moreover, this skill had a stun effect. It could be said to be very powerful.

Once he was surrounded by many people, he could use this skill to control them very well. The effect would definitely be very good.

After all, he would definitely encounter enemies like assassins in the future. They could easily enter close combat and this skill could prevent their sneak attacks.

After picking up the gold coins that dropped on the ground, Zhou Han continued to set off.

He spent two hours sweeping through all the wild monster strongholds on the route.

Zhou Han heaved a sigh of relief. It was much faster than he had expected.

It would definitely be faster when they got back. After all, it would be less of an obstacle to the wild monsters.

This way, five hours of buff was more than enough.

Now that he had reached Level 14, Zhou Han opened the interface and looked at his attributes.

[Zhou Han]

[Level: 14 (31.5%)]

[Class: Sword Soul (First Awakening at Level 25)]

[Health: 3,200+4,400]

[Attack: 1,040+1,000]

[Defense: 110+300]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]

[Title: Famous +3 (Attack +500)]

After reading it, Zhou Han closed the panel in satisfaction.

He was still a long way from Level 25. He still needed to work harder.

The place filled with hazy fog was the destination of this mission—the Netherworld Swamp.

After taking a look, Zhou Han walked in hesitantly.

[You have entered the Netherworld Swamp]

[A large amount of miasma has been detected. You will lose 500 HP per second.]

Hearing the system notification, Zhou Han was a little surprised.

He did not expect the damage of the miasma to be so high at 500 HP per second.

Fortunately, Zhou Han's act could recover 900 HP per second.

Otherwise, he would really die here today.

The Godfiend Continent was indeed very dangerous. It seemed that he had to be more careful in the future. He could not underestimate any place. Otherwise, he would fail miserably.

Zhou Han's equipment ignored the terrain and allowed him to move freely around the swamp without affecting his movement speed.

The Netherworld Swamp was very large so Zhou Han searched for a few minutes before he finally found a young girl.

"This should be Xiao Rou!" Zhou Han guessed.

Her appearance resembling an eighteen-year-old suited the old gentleman's description.

However, the girl was in a very bad state. Her eyes were closed and her lips were black. She was lying motionless on the ground.

'Don't tell me she's dead!'

Zhou Han's heart was a little heavy. If the other party died, his mission would fail.

All his efforts would go to waste.

"Xiao Rou, are you alright?"

Zhou Han hurriedly leaned over to check on Xiao Rou.

He placed his hand on the side of Xiao Rou's nose and tested her breathing. It was very weak.

He also checked her pulse and confirmed she was alive.

"Looks like there's still hope. She's probably poisoned. We have to find a way to detoxify her."

After all, they were in the miasma. Not everyone had the equipment to recover health like Zhou Han.

"System, search for information on the Antidote Pill."

[No information has been found in the chat and trading areas.]

[The purification skills of the Clergyman can cure poison.]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Killing the Cold Pool Poison Dragon has a certain chance of dropping an Antidote Pill.]

[There's a small chance of dropping the Antidote Pill after killing the Netherworld Poison Scorpion.]

...

The system gave a lot of information.

It was obviously impossible to become a Clergyman. In addition, the players in this area were not qualified to undergo class change.

The Cold Pool Poison Dragon was too far away. There was no need to consider this.

'The Netherworld Poison Scorpion?'

Zhou Han happened to discover that the Netherworld Poison Scorpion was a special creature in the Netherworld Swamp.

He immediately saw hope. The odds were slim, but that was all he could do for now.

Then, Zhou Han exchanged the last Heart Protecting Lotus in the trading area for a Health Recovery Pill.

Chapter 31: Tang Yurou's Misunderstanding

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han was eager to save her and did not check the specific attributes.

It was directly enhanced four times.

[HP Recovery Pill +4]

[Grade: Silver]

[Effect: After use, maximum HP will permanently increase by 100%. Restores 20% health per second for 10 minutes.]

[Description: One-time consumable. Cannot be stacked.]

After enhancement, the effect of the pill was very good, but it did not have the effect of an Antidote Pill.

It would only last ten minutes.

Ads by Pubfuture

After feeding it to her, she looked a little better. She woke up slowly, but the poison was still unresolved.

Her eyes were heavy and it was difficult to open them. She could only groan weakly.

"Xiao Rou, you're awake? Don't worry, I'll find the antidote now. Bear with it for a while."

Zhou Han's words were very gentle and filled with concern.

After all, Xiao Rou's safety concerned his mission.

"I'm not—"

Qin Mengyao didn't know why the man in front of her called her Xiao Rou.

She was very weak now and wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Zhou Han.

"Don't talk now. You're still poisoned. Here, get on my back."

There were so many wild monsters inside. He had to bring her with him.

Otherwise, in her situation, once she encountered wild monsters, her outcome would be very tragic.

Qin Mengyao was obviously a little shy. After hesitating for a moment, she obediently climbed onto Zhou Han's back.

Time was very tight now. The antidote had to be obtained in ten minutes.

Therefore, Zhou Han looked around for the Netherworld Poison Scorpion like a lunatic.

Anyone who saw it would be killed instantly, making these guys tremble.

If the Netherworld Poison Scorpion could speak, it would definitely curse.

'Damn it, what kind of grudge is this!'

'I'm living well in this Netherworld Swamp and have never provoked you. Why are you so ruthless?'

He had already killed more than twenty of them, but the pill still did not drop. Zhou Han could not help but feel a little anxious.

What bad luck!

Zhou Han would rather not get anything good for the entire day just to exchange for an Antidote Pill.

Unfortunately, that didn't work.

Soon, the Netherworld Poison Scorpion also learned.

When they saw Zhou Han, they were terrified and fled from afar.

It was even more difficult for Zhou Han to kill them.

Just as Zhou Han was in despair, he suddenly saw a golden Netherworld Poison Scorpion not far away.

'Hmm? This is Gold-grade?'

It was of a higher grade than an ordinary Silver-grade Netherworld Poison Scorpion.

The higher the grade, the higher the drop rate!

[Netherworld Poison Scorpion]

[Grade: Gold]

[Level: 18]

[Life: 2,600]

[Attack: 590]

[Defense: 239]

[Skill 1: Poison Sting: Release the Poison Sting and deal 2.5 times the attack damage to a single enemy.]

[Skill 2: Sturdy Body: Damage taken reduced by 20%.]

[Description: A unique creature of the Netherworld Swamp with a strong temperament. Weakness: Lightning attribute.]

Seeing such a situation, Zhou Han naturally would not let it go. His eyes were filled with greed.

The Gold-grade Netherworld Poison Scorpion seemed to have sensed something.

Zhou Han's murderous aura made its body tremble. It wagged its tail and fled.

'Want to run?'

Ads by Pubfuture

'In your dreams!'

Zhou Han slashed out with his sword aura, causing it to stagger.

Then, he used his speed advantage and used a skill to end its life.

[You killed the Gold-grade Netherworld Poison Scorpion.]

[You have obtained 10 Antidote Pills.]

After hearing the system's voice, Zhou Han was both happy and speechless.

Previously, not a single one had dropped, but now, there were ten.

This was too damn mind-boggling, but the timing was perfect.

Zhou Han took out one and directly enhanced it four times.

[Antidote Pill +4]

[Grade: Silver]

[Effect: After use, remove all negative poison attribute statuses. Converts all poison attribute damage within 60 minutes into HP recovery.]

[Description: A one-time consumable that can cure all poisons.]

"Xiao Rou, quickly take this antidote!"

Zhou Han hurriedly put her down and leaned against a big tree.

But when he put the pill in her mouth, she didn't swallow.

Unlike the previous HP Recovery Pill when she swallowed it in one gulp, perhaps she had been poisoned for too long and her consciousness was fading.

"I don't care! Anyway, she's an NPC and a beauty. I won't lose out."

Zhou Han made a prompt decision and placed the antidote in his mouth.

After their mouths made contact, after much effort, Xiao Rou finally swallowed.

The soft feeling made Zhou Han reminisce and was unwilling to separate.

After all, this was his first kiss!

It was a little melancholic to lose it just like that!

"You lecher, let go of that girl! How dare you do such a thing in broad daylight?"

Suddenly, a delicate shout came from afar. It was also a young girl with a beautiful face.

At this moment, his brows were furrowed and his face was filled with anger.

Just now, Tang Yurou heard the commotion of the battle and came over to check.

Unexpectedly, she happened to see Zhou Han kissing her.

Suddenly her heart was filled with endless rage. 𝓫ℯ𝓭𝓃𝓸𝓋ℯ𝓁.𝓬𝓸𝓂

This made her, who was determined to be a heroine, involuntarily come out to stop and help.

The melancholic Zhou Han was instantly awakened and hurriedly explained, "Don't get me wrong! I'm trying to save someone. What you're seeing is not true!"

He was righteous. How could he do such a thing?

"Save her? Can you find some more lame reason why saving her life requires mouth-to-mouth interaction?"

The girl looked at Zhou Han warily, holding the sword in her hand, looking ready to attack at any time.

"It's like this. This woman's name is Xiao Rou. I was entrusted by her grandfather to save her!"

Zhou Han did not blame the other party. After all, in such a situation, it was indeed very easy to misunderstand.

Therefore, Zhou Han directly told her the entire story.

"Tell me, what is your motive? You actually interacted with my grandfather!"

Tang Yurou immediately became vigilant and questioned loudly.

Wasn't Xiao Rou referring to her?

This time, she was really angry. She pulled out her sword and pointed it at Zhou Han, her expression instantly turning cold.

"What did you say? Your grandfather? Are you Xiao Rou?"

Ads by Pubfuture

Hearing the other party's words, Zhou Han was a little stunned.

It turned out that she had made a mistake.

The real Xiao Rou was standing in front of him, so who was sitting on the ground?

"Pretend, keep pretending!"

Tang Yurou's expression darkened. Just as she was about to stab Zhou Han, she heard the poisoned girl's voice.

"Wait, this is a misunderstanding. This young master is indeed my savior."

Qin Mengyao had actually woken up long ago, but because of her shyness, she had been leaning there pretending to be unconscious.

She could still feel Zhou Han's kiss just now.

The thought of doing something so intimate with a man for the first time in sixteen years made her blush.

But now that she saw Zhou Han and Tang Yurou about to start a fight, if she didn't come forward and explain, there would definitely be a conflict. She couldn't care less about being shy.

Chapter 32: Qin Mengyao Is a Player Too?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"What? Is it the truth? Or did he force you to say that?"

Tang Yurou's eyes were filled with suspicion and disbelief.

"Absolutely. Don't let this cause any misunderstandings."

Qin Mengyao blushed and looked at Zhou Han.

"Did you hear that? Why aren't you removing your sword? How can a girl be this fierce?" Zhou Han's lips curled up slightly as he shouted loudly.

"Hmph! Goodbye, then."

Although Tang Yurou was a little unconvinced, since it was a misunderstanding, she had no reason to interfere.

She sheathed her sword and prepared to walk away.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Where are you going? Your grandfather is worried about you. Come back with me now."

Zhou Han hurriedly stopped her. He had yet to complete his mission!

'What are you running around for?'

"I have things to take care of right now. I can't go back for a while!"

Tang Yurou did not look at Zhou Han kindly. She immediately said and left without looking back.

"Stop! You have to come with me no matter what!"

Since the soft approach didn't work, the hard way.

Zhou Han shouted from behind her, his words filled with undeniable authority.

After spending so much effort to complete the mission, Zhou Han definitely could not give up at the critical moment.

Since the other party was disobedient, he would use his strength to subdue her.

"Hmph, you sure can talk big! Let's see how you stop me."

Tang Yurou turned around slowly with a hint of contempt in her eyes.

Despite her small size, she was very confident in her strength.

Otherwise, it was impossible for her to enter the Netherworld Swamp alone.

As for Zhou Han, she did not think that he was her match.

After all, be it in terms of strength or looks, she was quite famous in Blue Thunder City.

She knew all the young talents in the city.

Since she had no impression of Zhou Han at all, she could conclude that he was a nobody.

It was very easy to deal with such a guy.

"Well, you're quite arrogant, little girl. Watch how I deal with you!"

A teasing look flashed across Zhou Han's face, his eyes filled with ill intentions.

He hadn't expected a mission to be so complicated.

This was a beautiful NPC with character.

"What? Little girl? You—"

"You stinky pervert, I'm going to rip your mouth off!"

Hearing Zhou Han's greeting, Tang Yurou was so angry that she could not speak.

Actually, it was Zhou Han's malicious gaze that made her anger reach its peak.

She had to teach him a lesson.

"Can you guys not fight? Let's all sit down and talk!"

Seeing that the two of them were ready to fight, the atmosphere was a little subtle. A big battle could erupt at any time.

Qin Mengyao stood up and said weakly, wanting to dissuade both parties.

"I have no choice. I have a mission to complete, and she must cooperate. Time is of the essence, or my efforts will be wasted!"

Zhou Han replied to Qin Mengyao helplessly.

For the mission, this fight had to be fought.

After hearing Zhou Han's words, Qin Mengyao's eyes lit up and she hurriedly asked, "Quest? Are you a player, too?"

The "too" revealed her own identity.

Zhou Han acutely sensed it.

A nod was an answer.

"That's great…"

Zhou Han was confused. What was so good about that?

The worry and confusion in Qin Mengyao's heart were swept away.

Previously, when she was kissed, she had always thought that Zhou Han was an NPC, so she was a little conflicted.

Although the other party was very handsome, it felt strange to be kissed by an NPC.

Now that she knew that Zhou Han was a real player, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Her heart was pounding. Was this what it felt like to be moved?

Zhou Han did not expect Qin Mengyao to be a player.

It was mainly because NPCs were too realistic. Sometimes, the other party would hide their attributes, making it difficult to differentiate them.

Zhou Han suddenly remembered that the Valley of the Undead was a cross-service map.

Therefore, Qin Mengyao should have come from another district.

But why had she leveled up so quickly?

Was she also extremely talented?

She didn't seem to be very strong.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be lying in the Netherworld Swamp, almost dead. 𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

However, Zhou Han would definitely not take the initiative to ask about things like talent.

It seemed rude.

"I opened an upgrade voucher in the clay pot and went straight up five levels. That's why I reached Level 10 so quickly."

"Otherwise, it's impossible to enter this map of the Valley of the Dead."

As if seeing the confusion in Zhou Han's eyes, Qin Mengyao took the initiative to tell him everything.

After reaching Level 10, she came to the Valley of the Undead. She did not expect it to be so dangerous.

If not for Zhou Han's timely rescue, she might have stayed here forever.

Now that she thought about it, she felt a lingering fear. She was a noob and liked to wander around.

"I have nothing to say. Just change your name to Lucky Qin!"

Zhou Han revealed an impressed expression and gave a thumbs up.

At the same time, he sighed. Some people were not talented, but they were lucky.

It could also make a difference. The Godfiend Continent was such a magical place.

Qin Mengyao wanted to say something else.

Zhou Han had already turned around to deal with Tang Yurou's attack.

"Zhou Han, you have to be careful!"

Qin Mengyao clenched her fists and muttered nervously.

At this moment, Tang Yurou had already drawn her sword.

It was a long, emerald-green sword with a sharp, glinting edge.

There were faint ripples on it. It was obvious that the quality was not too bad. It was at least Gold-grade and above.

Zhou Han also took the opportunity to check Tang Yurou's attributes.

[Sword Rider – Tang Yurou]

[Level: 30]

[Life: 3,600]

[Attack: 800]

[Defense: 430]

[Weapon: Blue Wave Sword]

[Equipment: Swordsman Set]

[Accessory: Rainbow Earrings]

[Cultivation Technique: Proud Cold Technique]

She had actually reached Level 30, which was beyond Zhou Han's expectations.

Unexpectedly, this little girl had some skills. Her skills were also the attributes of the water element.

However, that was all. Zhou Han was sure that he could defeat her.

"Take this! Feel how powerful I am."

"Water Dragon Slash!"

As Tang Yurou shouted, the water elements in the air quickly condensed and turned into a translucent dragon head.

It opened its bloody mouth and bit at Zhou Han.

The heavy power of the water made even the air feel slightly pressurized. It made breathing difficult.

"Is that all you've got? Are you trying to drown me?"

Zhou Han smiled faintly and said disdainfully.

He directly used the Sky Splitting Slash, and five sword auras flew out fiercely.

They hit the dragon's head.

Boom!

There was a loud crack as the dragon's head shattered.

The water element also exploded, turning into a pool of clear water that splashed onto the ground.

"Hmm? This stinky pervert is actually so strong. Looks like I have to take him seriously!"

Tang Yurou's expression changed and she was a little surprised.

Her move was easily resolved by Zhou Han.

She did not expect a nameless person to have such strength.

It seemed she had underestimated her opponent today.

"That's reasonable strength. But you're still no match for me."

Tang Yurou retorted with a serious expression.

Therefore, she had to show her true ability next.

"Ice, come under my control, Frost Sword Technique!"

At this moment, the water elements gathered and quickly turned into endless frost.

A frost sword slowly appeared. It was two to three meters long.

A powerful sword intent and coldness emitted, and its power could not be underestimated.

Ads by Pubfuture

The temperature had dropped a lot. Zhou Han could feel the cold wind blowing.

"Hehe, are they getting serious?"

Seeing the frost sword coming straight at him, he knew that if he was frozen, he would be finished.

Without any hesitation, Zhou Han activated the Cross Slash and directly attacked.

"Huh? It wasn't broken?"

The Cross Slash could increase attack power by 10 times, but it could not defeat the frost sword. This was something Zhou Han had never expected.

As expected of his trump card, it was indeed something!

"Hehe, how is it? Do you see my strength? Kid, you're still too inexperienced."

Seeing that the Frost Sword Prison was unbreakable, Tang Yurou immediately smiled and said proudly.

If she went all out, victory would be easy.

Chapter 33: I Didn't Expect You to Have Such A Fetish?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Hearing Tang Yurou's words, Zhou Han was not angry. Instead, he was a little speechless.

This young lady was too dramatic!

"Really? Well, it's time to end this!" Zhou Han was unmoved and said calmly.

"End… what?"

Tang Yurou was about to mock him when her expression changed drastically.

She had not expected this outcome and was too shocked to speak.

At this moment, the frost sword was sent flying dozens of meters away.

It would take a lot of time to return to the battlefield again.

Ads by Pubfuture

Before Tang Yurou knew what had happened, the tables had turned.

Zhou Han naturally knew the reason for all of this.

The Cross Slash triggered the knockback effect.

At this moment, there was no longer any obstruction in front of Zhou Han.

This opportunity could not be missed.

He activated his Leap skill and arrived in front of Tang Yurou.

She was so frightened that her face turned pale. In her panic, she condensed a water ball.

It enveloped Zhou Han, wanting to make one last struggle.

Slap!

A water ball not yet fully condensed was shattered by Zhou Han.

The final counterattack was over, and the outcome was clear.

"Oh my God! He's too strong!"

"Why am I in a completely different dimension from him when we're both players?"

By the side, Qin Mengyao went from being nervous at first to being happy that Zhou Han had the advantage.

In the final shock, he defeated his opponent in a few seconds.

Her eyes looked at Zhou Han and rippled with embarrassment and joy.

"How about it? Do you still want to resist? With your lousy skills, go back and practice for a few more years!"

Zhou Han's sword was pressed against Tang Yurou's throat, and he looked very smug.

Wasn't the little girl quite arrogant just now?

Tang Yurou's heart was filled with anger, but now the sword was at her neck.

She didn't dare.

Although he did not admit defeat on the surface, he was already beginning to cower in his heart.

"Let's go! Now come back with me!"

Zhou Han did not waste any time and went straight to the point.

After all, there was not much time left for the EXP buff to take effect.

"Don't even think about asking me to go back. I'm not leaving!"

Tang Yurou's stubborn temper rose. She turned her head away and ignored Zhou Han.

Actually, if Zhou Han had explained it nicely and given her a way out, she would not have rejected him.

But now, Zhou Han's sharp sword was still pointed at him. He was clearly forcing her.

She felt too humiliated now. This was no different from being a captive.

The pride inside her made her determined not to obey.

"You're not leaving? Believe it or not, I'll kill you!"

Zhou Han's expression was cold. He pretended to be fierce, hoping to scare her.

"Sure, do whatever you want!"

Tang Yurou was still unmoved. She did not look afraid at all.

Zhou Han was a little speechless and helpless.

He couldn't really kill her!

Seeing Zhou Han's defeated expression, Tang Yurou's face shone with pride.

'Hmph! Weren't you so fierce just now?'

'Why can't you do anything to me now? Let's see what you can do.'

"Okay, you forced my hand. Don't blame me for using some despicable means!"

Zhou Han finally thought of an idea with a smirk on his face.

"What—what do you want?!"

Tang Yurou saw the sinister smile in Zhou Han's eyes and panicked.

Ads by Pubfuture

'Don't tell me he wants to do that sort of thing!'

She was a virgin!

As she thought about it, her worst fears came true.

"Ah! You, you…"

Tang Yurou felt her chest being poked by Zhou Han's sword.

Although it did no harm, the touch made her tingle.

She was instantly embarrassed and angry. Her watery eyes were on the verge of tears.

"Well, would you believe me if I said I was careless?"

Zhou Han retracted his sword awkwardly and said.

He had wanted to use his sword to cut a button off her shirt to scare her.

But for some reason, his little hand shook and stabbed something soft.

In all honesty, Zhou Han really did not do it on purpose. He would never do such a beastly thing.

Even Qin Mengyao, who was standing at the side, felt a chill on her chest.

'Goodness, it's a sharp weapon!'

How much it would hurt if she did get poked?

She immediately looked at Zhou Han strangely. Could he have some special fetish?

Her footsteps involuntarily moved away from Zhou Han, and she was a little afraid.

The gratitude and good feelings she had for saving her life earlier instantly disappeared.

She only had one thought now, and that was to leave Zhou Han.

"Alright, let's go! Otherwise, I have more powerful methods later."

Seeing that he could not explain himself, Zhou Han could not be bothered to explain and said fiercely.

In any case, the current mission was the most important.

Even if he was seen as an evil or strange man, what did it matter?

It was the increase in strength that mattered.

After this incident, Tang Yurou was obviously frightened and became much more obedient.

Following Zhou Han's footsteps, he walked towards the exit of the Valley of the Undead.

"Then Zhou Han, I-I'll leave first?"

After leaving the Netherworld Swamp, Qin Mengyao said from 45 meters away from Zhou Han.

There was fear in her expression. She looked pitiful.

She was afraid that Zhou Han would be unwilling to let her go.

Doing perverted things every day would be terrible.

Clearly, she was thinking too much. Zhou Han had no intention of stopping her.

"Let's go, let's go!"

He waved a hand, showing no reluctance.

Qin Mengyao heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing Zhou Han's indifferent attitude, she was very glad, but also a little disappointed.

Neither of them spoke much on the way.

Because of the fear and anger in her heart, Tang Yurou did not talk to Zhou Han.

Zhou Han was also happy. After all, the other party was just an NPC, even if she was a beauty.

Nor did he have any intention of communicating with her in depth.

Soon, in silence, they passed through the exit portal.

"Xiao Rou! You're finally back! Grandpa was so worried."

The old man's face lit up with excitement as he saw the portal flash.

"I was wrong, Grandpa. I shouldn't have been so playful!"

Tang Yurou lowered her head and said obediently. She was no longer as unruly as before.

"Young man, thank you so much! As expected of a hero!"

The old man bowed gratefully to Zhou Han and praised.

"You flatter me, old sir. It's nothing. You don't have to be so polite!" Zhou Han hurriedly said.

However, he was puzzled. Since he had brought Tang Yurou over, why didn't the system prompt him that the mission had been completed?

'Is there a bug?'

'System, are you still there? Is there a bug?'

[The auxiliary system of the Godfiend Continent will definitely not have any bugs. Please read the mission description carefully.]

[Description: Save Xiao Rou and bring her to Grandpa.]

Zhou Han immediately analyzed.

It was divided into two parts. The first was to save Xiao Rou and the second was to bring her to her grandfather.

Chapter 34: The Emergence of the Demons, Gold-Grade Shadow Demon

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

From the looks of it, Tang Yurou was still in danger and he had not saved her.

There was another possibility. The old man in front of her was no longer her grandfather.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han could not help but feel a chill run down his spine.

"Xiao Rou, let's go home!"

The old man spoke kindly, his eyes smiling.

Zhou Han stared at him intently and realized that there were no wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. He did not look like an old man at all.

Something was wrong!

"Okay, Grandpa, let's go. Hmph!"

Tang Yurou nodded obediently and even made an angry expression at Zhou Han, meaning that they would see.

Clearly, with her grandfather backing her up, she was no longer afraid of Zhou Han.

As for what Zhou Han had done to her, she would remember it in her heart. One day, she would get back at him.

Zhou Han immediately used appraisal to check.

[Shadow Demon]

[Level: 41]

[Life: 4,600]

[Attack: 1,200]

[Defense: 616]

[Weapon: Blood Massacre Blade]

[Equipment: Ghost Set]

[Accessory: True Flame Ring]

[Cultivation Technique: Soul Manipulation Technique]

The other party's level had actually reached Level 41. If not for Zhou Han's enhanced Appraisal, he would definitely not have discovered it.

No wonder the other party was able to sneak into Blue Thunder City.

This kind of Shadow Demon was one of the races of demons. They were good at concealment and disguise.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Han bumped into it. If not for the abnormal situation of the mission,

Zhou Han would not notice this guy's existence either.

Therefore, Tang Yurou was still in danger.

This Shadow Demon's goal was obviously Tang Yurou.

He wondered what was so special about her, but he did not have time to think so much now.

He directly slashed at the Shadow Demon from behind.

"Yes? Do you have a death wish?"

The Shadow Demon used its keen senses to quickly detect energy fluctuations in the air.

It looked at Zhou Han angrily.

At the same time, it quickly produced a black ball of light and collided with the sword qi, instantly disintegrating Zhou Han's attack.

"Human, what a surprise. I disguised myself so well, but you found me."

Seeing that the sword aura had been neutralized, the Shadow Demon smiled evilly and spoke flatly.

At the same time, its figure instantly changed.

Its black, carapace-covered skin was revealed, its face ferocious and bloodthirsty.

A layer of black mist covered his body, sinister and strange.

Seeing this situation, Tang Yurou was bewildered and questioned loudly, "Grandpa, you—you're not my grandpa. What did you do to my grandpa?"

"Hehe, are you talking about that old guy? He was killed by me like an ant."

The Shadow Demon smiled savagely and spoke cruelly.

"I'll kill you! Return my grandfather's life."

Tang Yurou broke down after hearing that.

She drew the Blue Wave Sword and slashed at the Shadow Demon, her eyes filled with madness.

The Shadow Demon stood silently, showing no inclination to defend itself.

Suddenly, a beast soul crawled out of its body and flew away.

With just one attack, Tang Yurou was severely injured and could not get up from the ground.

"Hmph! You overestimate yourself. If the higher-ups hadn't specifically asked for you, you would be a corpse now."

The Shadow Demon retracted its gaze and turned its sinister gaze to Zhou Han.

It was like a hunter carrying its prey.

"Human, you should never have discovered my identity. Now you can die."

"A mere demon dares to be arrogant in our human territory. Who gave you such courage?"

Zhou Han's words were filled with sarcasm. He did not take the Shadow Demon seriously at all.

"Very well, arrogant boy. I'll show you true cruelty!"

"Shadow Soul Spike!"

The dark elements in the air quickly condensed into a few sharp spikes that attacked Zhou Han with a strange power.

-2489

"Hmm?"

"My skills actually can't offset it."

Zhou Han's skill hit the Shadow Soul Spike, but there was no collision.

Instead, it went straight through.

It was actually a soul-type skill?

This skill was very difficult to resist. He could only use his body to resist it.

"Fortunately, the damage isn't high, and I have enough HP."

Zhou Han could still withstand it. It was not a big problem.

"What? You're actually fine after enduring my skill?"

The Shadow Demon's eyes suddenly grew grave.

Unexpectedly, this low-level player in front of it was so strong and did not look injured at all.

"Soul Catcher Wave, I will tear your soul apart!"

This was a trump card. Even if the other party had some strength, he would not be able to escape.

-3922

With another strange ripple of soul, black waves appeared in the air.

It was a combination of sound waves and the soul attribute damage that was impossible to guard against.

It directly hit Zhou Han.

Fortunately, his HP was very high. Otherwise, he would be finished today.

"How can that be? It can't be?"

The Shadow Demon was stunned. It knew exactly how powerful its two moves were.

This was the first time it had encountered such a situation where they could not kill the other party.

"Have you had enough? Now it's my turn to attack!"

Zhou Han jumped out like a bolt of lightning and pointed his sword at the Shadow Demon's vital point.

It was so fast that the Shadow Demon did not have time to react before Zhou Han closed in.

Zhou Han's health was very high, but if he continued to be beaten up, he would eventually be exhausted to death.

With such soul attacks from the other party, Zhou Han could only fight in close combat to not be treated as a target board.

"Pfff…"

Seized the moment when Shadow Demon was casting, a sword flashed, and the Shadow Demon's body was pierced through by a cross-shaped hole. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝐨𝐫𝗴

But it did not fall. With the powerful life force of the demons, it retreated desperately, wanting to distance itself from Zhou Han.

"This speed is terrifying! This is not the speed of a human!"

Clearly, it was filled with shock. It never expected that its high level would be severely injured by a mere swordsman.

This was a huge humiliation for a demon. It was furious, but there was nowhere to vent it.

"If you want to run, let's see where you can run to."

Zhou Han charged forward quickly and activated the [Leap] skill.

In an instant, he arrived directly in front of the Shadow Demon.

Before the Shadow Demon could react, it was slapped to the ground by Zhou Han.

As for why he did not kill the Shadow Demon, it was mainly to ask where Tang Yurou's grandfather was.

Only then could he successfully complete his mission.

"What? You? How can you be so strong?"

The Shadow Demon was now lying on the ground like a dead dog, its face filled with endless fear.

Zhou Han's powerful HP, speed, and jumping ability completely stunned it.

All these terrifying attributes were concentrated on one person. He was simply invincible.

"Tell me! Where is her grandfather's body? Tell me the truth and I'll give you a quick death."

Zhou Han pointed at Tang Yurou and asked with a dark expression.

"Just around the corner from here…"

The Shadow Demon was completely terrified. It knew that it had no hope of surviving, so it confessed.

It saved Zhou Han the time to interrogate it.

"And why did you approach her? What was your special purpose?"

"It involves high-level secrets. I'd rather die than tell you."

"Human, don't be too smug. When the demon army descends, you—"

"Pfff…"

Before the Shadow Demon could finish speaking, it was struck by Zhou Han and ended its sinful life.

Chapter 35: Ghost Set, Highest Stats

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"So much nonsense!"

Zhou Han did not have the time to listen to the Shadow Demon's ruthless words.

As for the descent of the demon army, that was something for the future. Zhou Han did not care much.

At that time, if he developed steadily, he would definitely have even stronger abilities.

A mere demon was nothing to fear.

As for the purpose of the demons contacting Tang Yurou, it did not seem to be that simple.

Even the Shadow Demon was afraid to speak.

"What secrets does she have?"

Zhou Han looked at Tang Yurou thoughtfully.

[Server Announcement: Player Zhou Han has successfully killed a demon and completed the first kill. Reward: 100 gold coins and 1 gold treasure chest.]

"Hmm?"

Zhou Han did not expect that killing a Shadow Demon would trigger an announcement.

'That's not bad!'

He did not expect there to be a reward. It was a pleasant surprise.

It seemed that he had accepted this mission well and gotten a gold treasure chest for nothing.

Zhou Han was instantly delighted.

"Brother Han is awesome. He can even kill demons. He's simply too heaven-defying."

"I've heard that demons have strange methods. They have some soul-attack skills that are difficult to deal with."

"The lowest demons are Level 30. They are born with all kinds of powers."

"I won't say anything. In the future, I'll be Brother Han's fan and firmly support him."

"I wonder if Zhou Han will establish a guild in the future. I have to join."

...

The news of Zhou Han slaughtering the demons was discussed by everyone in the chat area.

Most of the players expressed their shock.

Zhou Han's reputation was also getting higher and higher.

However, Zhou Han did not pay attention to these fleeting praises. The most important thing now was the mission.

"Huh. I didn't know this guy had a lot of good stuff on him."

Looking at the items that dropped under the Shadow Demon's body, Zhou Han was a little excited.

[You obtained Set, Ghost Set.]

[You have obtained a cultivation technique, Soul Manipulation Technique.]

[You have obtained a weapon, the Blood Massacre Blade.]

[You received 1,500 gold coins.]

He hadn't expected this guy to be so rich. Most of the stuff had dropped, except for the True Flame ring.

After seeing the attributes, Zhou Han was overjoyed. This was simply a wave of benefits!

Zhou Han clicked on the [Ghost Set] and started reading.

[Ghost Set]

[Grade: Gold]

[Attributes: Health+3,000, Attack+500, Defense+200, Movement Speed+20]

[Set Effect: Can summon a beast soul and cause a lot of damage to the enemy.]

[Description: A very powerful set that combines attack and defense. It is very expensive.]

After reading it, Zhou Han knew that this was a set.

By gathering all six parts of helmet, clothing, wrist guard, belt, leg guard, and boots, one would trigger a special set effect.

After reading it, he was a little happy. It was indeed a combination of attack and defense.

He wondered what kind of changes would happen after he enhanced it five times.

"Enhance the Ghost Set five times."

[You have successfully enhanced it five times. Please check the attributes!]

[Ghost Set +5] 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐧𝐞𝘁

[Grade: Gold]

[Attributes: Health+8,000, Attack+1,200, Defense+500, Movement Speed+170]

[Special Effect 1: When HP is less than 100%, 2,000 HP will be recovered every second, and damage taken will be reduced by 50%.]

[Special Effect 2: +30% Evasion, +20% Control Immunity.]

[Special Effect 3: In combat, all attributes increase by 2 times.]

[Description: A powerful offensive and defensive ability is the best choice for your survival.]

[Set Effect: Summons a soul beast that unleashes a large number of soul attacks on all enemy units within a 20-meter radius.]

The Ghost Set directly added 8,000 HP.

Now that Zhou Han's health could exceed 10,000, he could directly take off.

Then the other attacks, defense, and movement speed were all greatly increased.

There were also three special effects. The important special effects were basically covered and were very powerful.

Even without a special effect that ignored the terrain, there was nothing he could do.

There was no such thing as perfect equipment.

Perhaps after more than a hundred enhancements, perfect equipment would appear!

However, this was too far away. Zhou Han was just thinking about it.

Then, there was the skill [Soul Manipulation Technique]. It was a Gold-grade cultivation technique that focused on soul attacks.

It could catch the enemy off guard.

When Zhou Han faced the Shadow Demon just now, he was also beaten up at first.

That was why Shadow Demon had the right to be proud. Any other player would probably suffer.

However, it was very unlucky to have encountered the monstrous Zhou Han.

All his attributes were maxed out.

With his health and speed advantage, he could barely win.

[Soul Manipulation Technique]

[Grade: Gold]

[Skill 1: Shadow Soul Spike (Gather soul power into a spike, causing 2 times the soul attack damage. Cooldown: 30 seconds.)]

[Skill 2: Soul Catcher Wave (Locked. Will only be unlocked after reaching a certain level of proficiency in Skill 1.)]

[Skill 3: Locked]

The effects of enhancing five times were also displayed.

[Shadow Soul Spike+5: Condenses soul power into spikes, causing 12 times the soul attack damage. Cooldown: 20 seconds.]

After enhancement, Zhou Han was very satisfied.

After all, this kind of soul attack was very strange and usually difficult to resist.

It would definitely become a sharp weapon against his enemies in the future.

"Hmm?"

After seeing the last [Blood Massacre Blade], Zhou Han was a little surprised.

'It's actually Platinum-grade?'

This was an existence that was one level higher than Gold-grade.

Unfortunately, Zhou Han had changed his class.

Therefore, such equipment could not be used.

When the time came, he could only hang it in the trading area. He should be able to exchange it for a lot of useful things.

After all, it was a Platinum-grade item. The powerful attribute bonuses were there.

Zhou Han also took a look. The attributes were indeed very powerful.

"Let's go! No matter what, we have to let the old man be buried in peace!"

Zhou Han helped Tang Yurou up and walked towards the old man.

At this moment, Tang Yurou was like an injured kitten.

She was no longer as feisty as before. Her tear-stained face made one instinctively want to protect her.

Fortunately, the Shadow Demon did not lie to Zhou Han and they quickly found the old man's corpse.

[You successfully completed the quest: Save Xiao Rou.]

[You gained a great deal of experience.]

[You've successfully risen to Level 19.]

As expected of an Intermediate Experience Card that had a 7x experience bonus, he immediately jumped to Level 19 and was one step away from his goal of Level 20 today.

Zhou Han opened the interface and looked at his attributes.

[Zhou Han]

[Level: 19 (81.1%)]

[Class: Sword Soul (First Awakening at Level 25)]

[Health: 3,450+8,000]

[Attack: 1,090+2,800]

[Defense: 125+500]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]

[Title: Famous +3 (Attack +500)]

[Weapon: Mithril Sword +4 (4x Attack, Kill)]

[Accessory: True Spirit Ring +5 (Ignore Armor, Summon True Spirit, +20% All Resistances)]

[Equipment: Ghost Set +5]

As expected, his experience bar reached 81.1%. Soon, he would reach Level 20.

Then, at Level 25, he could awaken for the first time. He wondered what the Sword Soul's awakening effect was.

Zhou Han was filled with anticipation.

Now, his health had exceeded 10,000 and his attack power was close to 4,000.

All his attributes had greatly increased.

Chapter 36: Levitation, Literally Taking Off!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

[You opened the gold treasure chest.]

[You have obtained a Skill Mutation Card.]

Skill Mutation Card?

The name sounded like a good thing. Zhou Han hurriedly checked the detailed description.

[Skill Mutation Card: After use, it can randomly mutate an unlocked skill of your class.]

He wondered how it would mutate and what standards it would be.

The system did not provide a clear explanation.

He had to test it himself.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Use the Skill Mutation Card."

[You used a Skill Mutation Card. Your skill 'Leap' has mutated. Please check.]

'Hmm? Did Leap mutate?'

'Can I fly now?'

After Zhou Han curiously checked, he was stunned.

He had guessed correctly. This skill could really let him fly.

[Levitation +4: Break free from the gravity of the planet. The body will be suspended 10 meters above ground for 2 minutes. Cooldown: 8 seconds.]

The name of the skill changed. It was called Levitation.

After seeing it, Zhou Han was extremely excited. Although he could only fly up to ten meters which was not completely flying, as he continued to enhance it in the future, it was hard to say what would happen.

He was about to test the effect of the skill when he heard a pair of neat footsteps walking over.

"This is it. I just sensed the demon."

A pair of guards came. They were all wearing iron armor and had a solemn killing aura. All of them were very powerful.

Zhou Han casually appraised one of them. They were all experts above Level 40.

The leader's level was higher than Level 60.

"Hmm? This is a Shadow Demon. It was killed not long ago. The body is still warm."

Soon they found the body, examined it, and came to a conclusion.

"Did you kill this Shadow Demon, young man?"

The commander of the Flying Feather Army happened to see Zhou Han and Tang Yurou, so he asked.

"That's right. How dare it act presumptuously in our human territory. It's courting death."

Zhou Han nodded and said indignantly.

"Good. Young men do have the courage to speak such grand words. A warrior such as yourself must be rewarded."

The commander was a little surprised at first. He did not expect the other party to be able to kill the Shadow Demon at such a young age.

Then, he clapped in admiration and a smile appeared on his cold face.

Hearing that there was a reward, Zhou Han's body lit up and he immediately said humbly, "Commander, you flatter me. It is my duty as a resident of Blue Thunder City. There is no need for a reward."

"Well said. Alright then, I'll make a note of your credit first."

"If everyone in Blue Thunder City has the same awareness as you, what's there to fear about the demons?"

The commander admired Zhou Han even more. It was rare to see such a capable and humble young man.

However, in the current situation, there were more and more demon invasions. He wondered how long Blue Thunder City could last.

Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Han's expression turned ugly.

Good lord!

This was not going according to plan!

'I was just being polite and you took it seriously.'

Were people like this in the past?

Zhou Han wished he could slap himself. Why did he have to say such things?

The reward was gone just like that.

However, from what he said, the situation was probably not good.

The situation might be more serious than he had imagined. He had to increase his strength through the gold mine.

Just as he was about to leave, he heard the commander speak again.

"I think you're a talent. Our city lord is preparing to form a demon-slaying division. I wonder if you're interested."

[A new mission has appeared: Talent Selection. Do you accept?]

Sigh, not bad. Although the reward was gone, he had earned another mission.

It wasn't a huge loss. It was completely acceptable.

"Of course I'm interested. I also want to contribute to Blue Thunder City."

[You accepted the mission. Please check the mission description!]

[Talent Selection]

Description: In the talent selection competition, successfully enter the top ten. The higher the ranking, the more generous the reward.

Progress: Incomplete

Location: Martial Arts Practice Field (Coordinates: …)

"Very good. The participants are all young talents. I hope you can emerge from the selection."

With that, the commander retreated with the soldiers.

Zhou Han opened the map and looked at the location of the martial arts arena. It was not very far.

Just as she was about to leave, she saw Tang Yurou still squatting there crying.

She looked like a weeping beauty.

A kind man like Zhou Han definitely could not watch a little beauty cry in front of him.

"There's no use crying like that. Let's bury your grandfather first and let him go in peace!"

Seeing Tang Yurou's flustered expression, Zhou Han immediately gave her an idea.

"But, but I don't have money…" Tang Yurou said awkwardly.

Burial in ancient times was not that simple. It had to be done in style, so the result was costly.

Zhou Han was a little speechless. 'You're already Level 30. Can't you earn this bit of money?'

At this moment, he was typing in the system to withdraw some gold coins.

"I-I'll sell myself to you. I just want Grandpa to be buried well!"

Tang Yurou saw that Zhou Han did not react for a long time. It was obvious that he did not want to lend her money.

That was true. How could a psychopath like him be so kind?

That was why she had said the part about selling herself to bury her grandfather.

"Ah! Here… take these gold coins."

Zhou Han was speechless. After placing the gold coins in Tang Yurou's hand, he left.

"Don't worry, I'll keep my word. After things are settled, I'll come to you. I'll be your maidservant from now on!"

Although Tang Yurou was unwilling, she still shouted at Zhou Han with determination in her eyes.

'I'd rather not have such a grumpy girl as a maid!'

Zhou Han felt a little uncomfortable just thinking about it!

At the martial arts arena.

At this moment, there was a sea of people. Everyone was fighting to sign up for the selection.

"This brother looks unfamiliar! Are you also here for the selection?"

While Zhou Han was queuing, a young man came over to chat.

The other party's hair was disheveled and he was a little sloppy from fright. At this moment, he looked at Zhou Han with a kind smile.

Ads by Pubfuture

Seeing the other party's expression and actions, Zhou Han quickly determined that he was a native of the Godfiend Continent.

"That's right. Is there a problem?"

Zhou Han did not find it annoying and started chatting. What if he triggered something hidden?

"There's a problem, of course, there's a problem! I don't think your strength is much. It's a little difficult to pass the selection."

The scruffy old man said it with a straight face. He made it sound like a real deal.

Even Zhou Han believed it.

'He can see through my strength?'

Could he be an expert?

Could he have met a hidden big shot?! Did he send something to him?

Thinking of this, Zhou Han was a little excited. His luck was a little heaven-defying!

Chapter 37: Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll, Divine-Grade Cultivation Technique

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Then, Zhou Han used Appraisal and took a look at this guy's attributes.

When he saw it clearly, Zhou Han was a little depressed.

[Trainee Swordsman, Tu Fei]

[Level: 11]

[Life: 1,500]

[Attack: 200]

[Defense: 60]

[Weapons: Greatsword]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Equipment: None]

[Accessories: None]

[Cultivation Technique: Basic Sword Technique]

This was simply trash!

To think that he treated this guy as a hidden big shot.

'It seemed that this guy was trying to fool me!'

Zhou Han immediately felt dispirited and did not want to care.

"How is it, brother? Am I right? It doesn't matter if you're weak. I have a cultivation technique here."

"As long as you cultivate, I guarantee that you will shock the world in the selection competition and easily obtain first place."

Tu Fei had no idea that he had been seen through. He was still talking non-stop.

After saying that, he took out many books and various cultivation techniques.

The Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll, the Universe God Slaying Sword Art, the Limitless Star Forbidden Scripture, and so on were very impressive.

Zhou Han glanced at it. Good lord, did they all have such heaven-defying names?

'Can you brag any more than that?'

"If you're so powerful, why don't you cultivate it yourself?" Zhou Han couldn't help but ask in amusement.

"I'm not interested in power. Training is too tiring for me. It doesn't suit me. I just want to live normally."

Tu Fei did not show any embarrassment as he bragged.

"Get this one. Take a look. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

Tu Fei directly stuffed one of the books into Zhou Han's hand. It seemed like he wanted to force a sale.

After all, he spent all his life in Blue Thunder City. When he saw that Zhou Han was obviously a new face, he came to try and scam this person.

[A part of the Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll has been detected! Do you wish to view it?]

"Hmm?"

After hearing the system notification, Zhou Han was surprised and overjoyed.

'This is real?'

'How unexpected!'

Zhou Han hurriedly checked.

[Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll (Incomplete)]

Grade: Divine

Skill 1: Skill Combination (Fuses two similar cultivation techniques to form a new cultivation technique. Its power becomes stronger, and there is an extremely low chance of raising its grade.)

Skill 2: None

Good lord!

Divine-grade?

What was the probability of getting a Divine-grade item? Zhou Han did not know.

He only remembered that the highest grade mentioned by the system was the Emperor-grade.

Now it seemed that the Divine-grade that had not been mentioned was definitely higher than the Emperor-grade.

As for how high, he wasn't sure.

Anyway, it was a very awesome discovery.

There was only one skill. The second skill showed nothing. It was indeed incomplete.

Regardless, even an incomplete version was priceless.

As for the effect of the [Skill Combination], he could not try it yet. However, it was certain that no matter how he used a Divine-grade cultivation technique, it would not disappoint him.

Zhou Han thought and glanced at the remaining books in Tu Fei's hand.

Could the rest be real?

If it was all true, wouldn't he be invincible?

"Bring me the remaining books. I'll take a look at them too!" Zhou Han said calmly, holding back his excitement.

Seeing that he had taken the bait, Tu Fei was overjoyed. His luck today was not bad. There was hope for him to earn some money.

After reading it, Zhou Han was a little disappointed. The rest were all fake, making him excited for nothing.

After calming down, Zhou Han secretly scolded himself for being too greedy. He was still not satisfied with a Divine-grade cultivation technique.

"Alright, these two are quite good. I'll take them!"

In order not to make the other party suspicious, Zhou Han bought two books.

"100 gold coins per book. That's 200 in total. Practice it today and you'll be number one tomorrow. You…"

"Don't be ridiculous. 20 gold coins, no more."

Zhou Han interrupted him and stated his bid.

It was not that Zhou Han could not bear to spend 200 gold coins, but he was afraid that the other party would deliberately test him and realize the truth of the Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll.

Therefore, this price had to be cut. It had to be cut ruthlessly.

"No way. 20 gold coins are too much of a loss for me."

"You don't agree? Then I don't want them!"

Zhou Han turned around and pretended to leave.

He counted to three in his heart. The other party would definitely ask him to stay.

"Hey, don't leave. 20 gold coins it is! What a crazy price. I'm making a huge loss!"

Tu Fei looked like he had lost his parents, but in fact, he was already overjoyed.

Other than the Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll that he picked up somewhere, he had printed the rest himself.

The value was basically less than two copper coins, but it had suddenly been flipped by a thousand times. It was simply too much.

"Look, Tu Fei is fooling the newbie again."

"Damn, he got fooled so easily. He's really stupid!"

"That guy is really a fat sheep. He took out 20 gold coins directly. He's really a fool."

"He probably just came out to roam the martial world and has never experienced the reality of society."

"Let's go and fool him too. Let's see if we can earn some wine money."

...

These passers-by in Blue Thunder City were all discussing. They did not expect Zhou Han to spend 20 gold coins to buy a pile of waste paper.

In their eyes, Zhou Han was already a fat sheep.

Everyone was calculating in their hearts and wanted to take a bite of Zhou Han.

"Brother, you have to thank me properly after you master the divine technique!"

After receiving the gold coins, Tu Fei left in satisfaction. This would last him a year.

After obtaining the cultivation technique, Zhou Han did not go back on his words.

He was prepared to find a place where no one was around and learn the Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll.

After all, there were many people around now. When learning skills, there would be abnormalities.

Otherwise, Zhou Han could have just used it for free earlier.

Moreover, this was a Divine-grade cultivation technique. Who knew what kind of phenomenon would happen after learning it?

Just as he was about to leave, a group of people suddenly surrounded him.

Zhou Han frowned. They were all smiling and did not look like they were fighting.

"Brother, I have a piece of equipment here. I'll sell it for a gold coin at a cheap price…"

One of them quickly came to Zhou Han's side and promoted his product.

How absurd!

This wasn't equipment. It was underwear!

He wondered where this guy had gotten it.

Zhou Han immediately refused. Was he such an indecent person?

"Brother, I have an interesting book for you. It's very exciting…"

"Brother…"

More and more people gathered around.

Ads by Pubfuture

They scrambled to sell their products.

Only then did Zhou Han realize that they were treating him like a fat sheep.

They had misunderstood the deal with Tu Fei just now.

"F*ck, get lost…"

Zhou Han was immediately a little unhappy. Everyone treated him like a fat sheep, so why should he be polite?

He lost his temper and shouted at everyone.

"You've got balls, kid. Don't meet me during the tryouts, or I'll kill you!"

"This fat sheep has quite a temper. We must teach him a lesson about the dangers of society."

"What a waste of my time. Why is this boy so clever now? He's not fooled at all."

Chapter 38: Skill Combination, Sword Aura Storm

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When everyone saw that they had not ripped off a fat sheep, their eyes were filled with resentment and jealousy.

At this moment, they all hated Zhou Han and threatened to teach him a lesson.

If it weren't for the fact that fighting was forbidden in Blue Thunder City, they would have attacked long ago.

At this moment, Zhou Han had no idea that he had been inexplicably hated.

Even if he knew, it didn't matter. He didn't care about these cannon fodder at all.

[A cultivation technique for learning has been detected. Do you want to learn it?]

When Zhou Han found an empty corner and took out the Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll, a system notification came.

"Learn."

Zhou Han did not check immediately. Instead, he enhanced it six times because his enhancement points were not enough for more.

[Skill Combination +6: When any skill is fused, the new skill has a 90% chance to increase its grade.]

After checking, Zhou Han's eyes lit up.

He remembered the earlier description clearly. It required two similar skills.

Now, there was no need for this condition. Any skill could be combined, and there was no limit to the number.

Initially, the new skill had an extremely low chance of increasing its grade.

But now that the probability had increased to 90%, as long as his luck was not too bad, it would basically succeed.

Zhou Han felt very satisfied. Now, he had to give it a try and see what the skill after fusion was like.

Immediately, he hesitated. What skill fusion should he try?

His current skills were: Sky Splitting Slash, Eight Directional Heaven Splitter, Falling Leaf Sword, and Shadow Soul Spike.

Sword Soul's class skills: Cross Slash, Levitation, and Sword Technique Expertise.

He took a look. The Eight Directional Heaven Splitter had a stun effect. This could not be fused for the time being.

On the other hand, the Shadow Soul Spike was a soul attack that had some unexpected effects. This could not be fused either.

It was better to fuse the Sky Splitting Slash and Falling Leaf Sword with the Cross Slash first. After all, the output of these skills could not keep up now.

[The skills you chose have been successfully fused. The excess enhancement points have been returned.]

"Hmm?"

It was good that the enhancement points could be refunded. This could save a lot of trouble.

[New skill Sword Qi Storm has been formed. Please check it!]

The effects of the enhancement were also displayed.

[Sword Aura Storm +6: Summon hundreds of sword auras to form a storm, causing 15 times of true damage to all enemy units within 20 meters. Cooldown: 20 seconds.]

Good lord, 15 times of true damage!

The Divine-grade cultivation technique, the Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll, was indeed heaven-defying. Just by casually fusing skills, it had a true damage effect.

Looking at the remaining skills, Zhou Han had an urge to directly fuse them.

However, he still endured it. These skills were still very useful at the moment. If he rashly fused them, his combat strength might decrease.

After tidying up, Zhou Han also began to queue up to register for the selection competition.

Soon it was his turn after an hour of waiting in line.

"This is your number plate. It will randomly match you to different opponents. Only by winning all of them can you enter the qualifying competition…"

After the young lady at the registration reception recorded Zhou Han's information, she handed him a wooden token and explained the relevant matters.

Zhou Han nodded and looked at the number 19 on the wooden sign.

[Participation Wooden Token]: A mission item. With this card, you can obtain the qualification to participate in the selection competition.

'I wondered what effects would appear after I enhanced it.'

Now, Zhou Han's first reaction was to enhance anything he saw.

There was no special effect after enhancing it once.

Two enhancements.

'Wait… There's been a change.'

[Participation Wooden Token +2]: Quest item. With this card, you can directly enter the top 100.

Three enhancements.

[Participation Wooden Token +3]: Quest item. With this card, you can directly enter the top 10.

[You are temporarily ranked tenth in the Talent Selection Competition. You have reached the mission completion standard. Do you want to complete the mission immediately?]

After three enhancements, a notification came from the system.

This was not bad. After enhancing, it directly raised his ranking to tenth place. It was simply too satisfying.

"I'm not settling the mission for now!"

The mission rewards were calculated according to the ranking. The reward for the tenth place was too low. Zhou Han's goal was first place.

"Enhance it again!"

[It has reached the limit of the item's enhancement. The enhancement has failed.]

"Did it fail?"

There was no disappointment in Zhou Han's eyes. If he really continued to enhance it like this, it would just give him an award automatically.

After asking the staff, the top ten were the final.

Today was the qualifying round. Tomorrow was the real finals.

"That's good too. I don't have to waste time here. I can go out of the city to farm monsters now."

Zhou Han did not waste any time and entered the Valley of the Undead.

Soon, Zhou Han's experience points were enough and he reached Level 20.

He had earned tens of thousands of enhancement points.

He had encountered many Silver-grade demonic beasts and a small number of Gold-grade ones.

"Without the EXP buff, leveling up is indeed a little slow! In any case, today's harvest is not bad!"

Zhou Han found a tree, sat down, and started collating his earnings.

However, when he was killing the demonic beasts, he stuffed everything that fell into his bag without looking carefully.

While resting, Zhou Han counted his gains.

He obtained more than 1,000 gold coins, 12 pieces of Silver-grade equipment, and three pieces of Gold-grade equipment.

However, Zhou Han already had the Ghost Set. Gold equipment was useless to him.

"Sigh, it's a pity that there are no Gold-grade sword weapons."

Just as Zhou Han was sighing, two system announcements suddenly sounded.

[Server Announcement: Player Han Xiangning is the second to reach Level 10. Reward: 200 gold coins, 1 gold treasure chest.]

[Server Announcement: Player Han Qinxue is the third to reach Level 10. Reward: 100 gold coins and 2 silver treasure chests.]

After hearing the system announcement, Zhou Han smiled.

"Looks like they're leveling up a little slower without me!"

Zhou Han remembered that they had reached Level 9 yesterday.

Unexpectedly, it was almost dark today and they had only reached Level 10. This was not just slow.

[A friend has sent you a message. Please check it!]

'Friend's message?'

He only had two good friends in total.

Ads by Pubfuture

It seemed that they had come to report the good news to him.

"Open the friend panel!"

When he opened it, he saw a message flashing.

Both sisters had sent messages.

Han Xiangning: I've finally reached Level 10. I'm so happy!

Han Qinxue: Zhou Han, thank you. We've both reached Level 10.

Zhou Han: "First of all, congratulations. What class do you plan to choose?"

Han Qinxue: I haven't thought about it yet. I'll discuss it with you tonight.

Han Xiangning: Zhou Han, you can open my gold treasure chest! I'm afraid my luck will be as bad as last time.

Ever since she obtained a piece of Ordinary-grade equipment last time, she had been traumatized.

Chapter 39: Clergyman, Targeted by the Demons

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

[Han Xiangning requests a deal. Do you accept?]

After Zhou Han accepted it, he quickly obtained the gold treasure chest and opened it without hesitation.

[You have obtained the Green Cloud Sword. Please check it.] 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝗻𝗼𝘃𝐞𝗹.𝗻𝐞𝘁

'Eh!'

Unexpectedly, his luck was good. It was actually Platinum-grade.

The gold treasure chest dropped a Platinum-grade item. It was considered a huge drop.

[Green Cloud Sword +6]

[Grade: Platinum]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Attributes: Attack+1,500, Critical Rate+50%]

[Special Effect 1: Increases physical lifesteal effect by 30%.]

[Special Effect 2: After entering the combat state, attack will increase by 6 times. Immediately disappears after leaving combat state for 5 seconds.]

[Special Effect 3: When attacking, the target's defense is reduced by 40%.]

As expected of a Platinum-grade weapon, it directly increased attack by 1,500, and its critical strike rate reached 50%. On average, it could produce one critical strike every two attacks.

Special Effect 1 had a lifesteal effect; Special Effect 2 had a large increase in attack power; Special Effect 3 could lower defense. Overall, it was really a powerful weapon.

After equipping it on himself, Zhou Han packed all the equipment and weapons that he had replaced in his bag for the sisters.

He looked at the rankings.

[Level Ranking]

1. Zhou Han: Level 20 (84.6%)

2. Han Xiangning: Level 10 (11.9%)

3. Han Qinxue: Level 10 (10.5%)

4. Ou Huang: Level 9 (0.3%)

5. Jia Feiqiu: Level 8 (96.2%)

6. Gou Tuo: Level 8 (86.4%)

7. Mei Aoxue: Level 8 (63.0%)

8. Lin Fan: Level 7 (93.3%)

9. Zhang Deshuai: Level 7 (90.0%)

...

'Not bad. These three are taking off!'

After Zhou Han saw it, he was stunned.

When they opened the pot in the morning, the few lucky fellows directly dominated the rankings and reached the top ten. They could change their class tomorrow.

It could be said that one lucky item drop changed their fate!

Zhou Han suddenly felt a sense of crisis. If there was such a lucky person every day, his first position would be greatly threatened.

One had to know that there were a total of 100 million players who had entered the Godfiend Continent. There were always some lucky fellows who appeared.

"No, I can't relax. I have to use my advantage to put distance between us."

Zhou Han reminded himself in his mind.

It was almost dark so it was impossible to farm monsters. They definitely couldn't stay outside the city at night.

During the day, Zhou Han encountered the Shadow Demon.

Moreover, from the words of the commander of Blue Thunder City, it was obvious that the current situation was not optimistic. The demons had completely infiltrated the city.

At the place where Zhou Han left, three figures appeared in the shadows not far away. They were covered in black fog and could not be seen clearly.

As they appeared, the surroundings suddenly became dark and strange.

"What's the situation with Shadow Demon? Why can't we contact it?"

The leader's voice was hoarse and grim with anger.

"Boss, the Shadow Demon was discovered and killed directly," one of the lackeys replied carefully.

"It was killed? It's those b*stards from the Flying Feather Army again!"

The leader smashed the tree beside him to vent his dissatisfaction.

"This wasn't done by the Flying Feather Army, but by a young man with extraordinary strength."

Ads by Pubfuture

"I've been lurking in Blue Thunder City for years. A young man like this can't be unknown. It's as if he suddenly appeared."

The other underling suddenly voiced his own confusion.

"Hmph! I don't care who dares to go against my Abyssal Demon Race. I want him to die without a burial place."

The leader immediately gave the order, his eyes filled with a cruel smile.

"Don't worry, Boss. I'll continue to lie low and find out where he is. Hehe, when the time comes, I'll avenge the Shadow Demon."

One of the minions volunteered.

"Yes, go ahead. I will remember your credit."

"We have to find a way to capture that human woman. That's what the higher-ups told us. Do you understand?"

The leader pointed to another lackey.

"Please give me more time. The appearance of the Shadow Demon has alerted the Flying Feather Army. It won't be easy to make a move in the city."

"Sure, I trust your abilities. That's all for today…"

With that, the three of them disappeared into the shadows again.

...

At this moment, Zhou Han had already returned to the city and met up with Han Qinxue and her sister.

Perhaps thinking of the accident last night, the two women blushed and felt awkward when they saw Zhou Han coming over.

Seeing that the two women were so shy, Zhou Han naturally wouldn't mention what happened last night and tease them. Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

"Have the two of you decided what classes you're going to choose?"

Zhou Han immediately found a topic to ask.

"I'd better choose a Clergyman! I'll play support in peace."

Han Qinxue was the first to speak. After all, she could not lead the charge. Her combat will and combat skills were too poor.

She learned that the Clergyman could buff and heal teammates. She felt that it was quite effective.

There were many subclasses within Clergyman, including those who took the combat route.

However, after hearing what Han Qinxue said, Zhou Han roughly understood that she was probably choosing a healer role.

Seeing the magnificence of her chest, this was definitely a good nanny.

"Clergyman is good. You can keep us safe! Xiangning, what's your choice?"

"I—I actually wanted to choose the Clergyman, but since my sister chose it, I'll choose the Mage!"

Han Xiangning said hesitantly. After all, she also wanted to be a support member.

However, it was meaningless to take the same class, and there were many drawbacks regarding that.

Mages were also a long-range DPS class. All they had to do was release their skills. It was easy and simple to operate.

Then, the three of them discussed it for a while before finally confirming it and starting their class advancement.

The evening passed without incident. It was nothing like what had happened the day before.

The next morning, the three of them went to the pottery merchant's place to collect their daily free pot.

[Your free clay pot has been sent. Please check!]

"Open pot."

[You have obtained a Skill Book. Please check it!]

'Eh!'

'So lucky?'

It felt good that he had actually obtained a skill book.

Ads by Pubfuture

'I wonder what grade it is?'

Anyway, it would definitely not be Starlight-grade because it did not trigger the entire region's announcement.

[Sensing (Ordinary): Can sense the threat within 2 meters.]

After Zhou Han read it, he was a little disappointed. It was an ordinary skill book.

Moreover, the effect was not good. He could only feel the threat within two meters.

This was completely useless. If an expert entered within two meters of him, even if he sensed it, there would be nothing he could do about it.

After enhancing it twice, the effect was also very ordinary.

[Sensing +2]: Can sense the threat within 4 meters.

Four meters was still not enough.

"I wonder what effect Sensing and Appraisal will have after fusing?"

Chapter 40: Zhou Han Has Connections?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han suddenly had an idea and was looking forward to it.

In any case, the Sensing skill was useless, so he might as well fuse it.

Even if he fused a lousy skill, it wouldn't matter.

Appraisal was something every player had. If they wanted to receive it again, they only needed to spend 10 gold coins.

Therefore, he was not worried that he would lose his Appraisal skill.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han immediately tried.

[Skill fusion successful. It has been upgraded to Bronze-grade.]

[New skill has been generated. Please check the attributes!]

Ads by Pubfuture

It was expected that it would rise to the bronze level with a 90% probability.

The skill name was [Aura Sensing].

Zhou Han directly enhanced it three times, and the effect was displayed.

[Aura Sensing +3: Can sense auras within a 30-meter radius.]

After the fusion, it was indeed much stronger.

It reached a range of 30 meters in an instant.

Previously, the Sensing skill could only sense threats, and the range was very small.

It could sense all kinds of auras now. This included danger, kindness, cold, hot, and others.

This was a very powerful auxiliary skill.

"Let me try it first and see how it works!"

Zhou Han quickly used Aura Sensing. It was very profound.

The surrounding aura was very flat. Anyway, there was nothing special about it.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Zhou Han's expression changed because he discovered a cold aura that seemed to be hostile to him.

He immediately looked in that direction.

The other party was an ordinary man dressed like a farmer. If he was thrown into a sea of people, no one would even look at him.

Seeing Zhou Han look over, he naturally turned his head away, pretending to be very secretive.

If not for the fact that he could sense his aura, he would really have been deceived by his acting skills.

'Who the hell is he? I don't think I've provoked him!'

Zhou Han was puzzled.

He checked the man's attributes.

[Dark Demon Guard: The most common demon in the Fog Abyss. It is good at hiding and tracking. It can deliver a fatal blow to enemies in the dark.]

Another demon?

'Looks like they're onto me.'

Zhou Han knew that it was because of the Shadow Demon yesterday that the demons began to notice him.

"Zhou Han, why are you in a daze? Look at what I got. My luck is really good today."

Han Xiangning patted Zhou Han's shoulder and said excitedly.

"Oh? What's so good that you're so happy?" Zhou Han asked curiously.

"A Gold-grade belt. Let me ask you, isn't it powerful?" Han Xiangning said proudly.

"…"

'Is that all?'

'I thought it was something good?'

Zhou Han couldn't even be bothered to look at the Gold equipment.

After this small episode, Zhou Han looked in the direction of the Dark Demon Guard.

He realized that the other party had disappeared into the vast crowd.

However, Zhou Han did not feel that it was a pity. He had the [Aura Sensing] skill anyway.

Then the hidden methods of the demons would be exposed in front of Zhou Han.

Therefore, he had nothing to worry about. He had already memorized the other party's appearance.

On the contrary, he still had to track the other party and find all of their members. Only then could he eliminate any future trouble.

"Zhou Han, let's go first and prepare to level up in the Valley of the Undead." Han Qinxue said with a smile.

She knew that Zhou Han was going to participate in the finals of the selection competition.

Ads by Pubfuture

"You have to be careful. You can cross servers in the Valley of the Undead. Be careful of players from other areas!"

Zhou Han did not forget to remind.

Today was already the third day. There would be more and more players who could reach Level 10.

Therefore, there would definitely be a lot of players in the Valley of the Undead.

"Don't worry! With me around and Xiangning's Mage skills, our power can't be underestimated."

Han Xiangning puffed out her chest proudly.

Zhou Han hurriedly turned his head away.

...

"Congratulations on reaching the top ten. Today will be the final match to decide who will win the championship."

The Flying Feather Army's Lieutenant was in high spirits as he spoke rhythmically in the arena.

"To protect Blue Thunder City. To—"

Zhou Han yawned as he listened from below. He felt like the school principal was speaking from above.

"Alright, let's talk about the rules of the competition now. It's divided into qualifying matches."

"The ten of you will fight each other. The winner of nine battles will receive the honor of the first place."

"Hmm?"

"Ranking battle?"

"That's interesting!"

"Who do you think will get first place? I think better of Jiang Chen."

"Jiang Chen is nothing. My Hong Peng is the number one among the younger generation."

"Okay, cut the crap. They're all experts anyway. It's fine as long as everyone is enjoying the show."

"Hey! Look at that No. 19. Isn't that the fat sheep from yesterday?"

"Oh wow, that's true. How did he get into the top ten? I didn't see him in the arena yesterday."

"Don't tell me he went through the back door! That kid is obviously rich!"

"Hehe, look, he's still sleeping. He'll probably be tortured soon! I'm looking forward to it!"

In the finals, the competition was quite exciting. In the beginning, everyone was discussing the likely winner of the competition.

That was until they saw Zhou Han.

They were very unhappy because he did not buy their things yesterday.

Now that they saw Zhou Han acting like he had connections, everyone was looking forward to seeing him get beaten up.

"The competition will now begin. No. 19 Zhou Han will fight No. 90 Han Li."

The judge was dumbfounded when he finished speaking loudly.

After all, those who entered the top ten were all powerful talents. Why didn't he have any impression of this No. 19?

It was as if it had suddenly appeared.

He got in through connections?

The judge instantly thought of this.

The fair and just him immediately looked at Zhou Han with displeasure.

After Han Li went on stage, the referee whispered something in his ear.

That was to torture the opponent.

"Don't worry, I won't let you down. I'll make him regret participating in this competition."

A smile appeared on Han Li's face, but the eeriness of it could be seen.

He came from a poor family and relied on hard training to achieve what he had today.

He couldn't stand people who pulled strings like this, so after hearing what the referee had to say, formless anger burned in her heart. He had to teach this guy a lesson.

Ads by Pubfuture

Zhou Han lazily walked into the arena.

The Lieutenant's words just now were too sleep-inducing.

"You're Zhou Han?"

Han Li smiled disdainfully when he saw Zhou Han.

Even such a guy could enter the top ten. He was really ashamed to be in the same competition.

"Yes? Am I that famous? How do you know me?"

Zhou Han was a little puzzled. He was indeed very famous among the players.

But why did the residents of Blue Thunder City know him?

Is it because I'm handsome?

Sigh, I'm already so low-key, but my strength doesn't allow it at all.

Chapter 41: Spear Strikes Like a Dragon, Is That All?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"I'll teach you a painful lesson about what happens when you go through the back door."

Han Li clenched his fists and smiled playfully.

He could almost see Zhou Han confessing and begging for mercy in front of him.

Did he get in through connections?

Zhou Han was a little puzzled at first.

However, he instantly remembered that because of the [Participation Wooden Token] that he had enhanced yesterday,

He directly entered the top ten, so these people thought that he had connections.

No wonder these people looked at him with hostility.

Ads by Pubfuture

The surrounding crowd wished they could go on stage and beat Zhou Han up.

'I see.'

That made sense.

"Alright, if you want to fight, fight. Why are you so talkative?"

Zhou Han could not be bothered to waste any more time.

"Good. You're losing your temper?"

The coldness in Han Li's eyes seemed to freeze.

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a seven-foot spear from behind him. The spearhead flickered with a cold light, and a violent aura suddenly erupted.

It made the expressions of the crowd change.

From afar, they could feel a force blowing over.

It was not something they could contend with.

"How satisfying. Zhou Han's first opponent is Han Li. He's a ruthless person. He will definitely beat this guy up."

"Now that you mention it, I'm a little excited. Fight. I'm really looking forward to it."

"Han Li is indeed the number one person from a poor family. His spear proficiency is even more exquisite. Looks like his ranking in this selection competition will definitely not be bad."

"Zhou Han, this is the outcome of getting in through the back door. You actually dared to get into the top ten without strength. Prepare to be punished!"

"Beat him to death, the shameless thing. How can they break the rules so easily?"

The onlookers were indignant and gloating at this situation.

"Hmm?"

'Someone who cultivates spear techniques?'

It was a little like the Lancer class.

After checking, the other party's attributes were displayed.

[Cold Spear—Han Li]

[Level: 30]

[Life: 3,900]

[Attack: 1,000]

[Defense: 499]

[Weapon: Blue Snow Spear]

[Equipment: Gunner Set]

[Accessory: Mystic Iron Bracelet]

[Cultivation Technique: Dragon Transformation Technique]

He was only Level 33, and his equipment was very ordinary.

No wonder he was poor.

There was not a single piece of Gold equipment.

After Zhou Han finished reading, he shook his head.

He looked at Han Li with pity.

It was not easy for this child to survive like this.

"You, you… I'm going to kill you!"

Zhou Han's gaze pierced Han Li's heart.

He came from a poor family. This was an identity that he could not get rid of no matter what.

At this moment, Zhou Han ripped at his scar.

It made him instantly fly into a rage out of humiliation.

"Damn, why is this guy so angry!"

Zhou Han was a little confused, but at this moment, Han Li's attack had already arrived.

"A cold light first, then a spear like a dragon. Consecutive spear strike, break!"

His spear emitted a cold light and attacked Zhou Han.

With the aura of ice, one could feel the temperature in the air drop drastically.

The power was extraordinary. Han Li was very satisfied with his attack.

He smiled. As expected, Zhou Han would fall in the next second. Then, he would go over and humiliate him.

He had even thought of humiliating words.

'Eh!'

'What?'

Impossible!

Han Li's smile gradually froze, and his eyes were filled with shock.

Miss!

Miss!

Zhou Han only used his hand to block lightly. He did not expect to trigger the dodging effect.

It had triggered twice in a row.

This was something he hadn't expected at all.

"That's it? You're attacking like a dragon?"

Zhou Han looked at Han Li with a faint smile and blinked at him in confusion.

"How—how did you do it?"

Han Li's face darkened, but he was bewildered.

Could it be that the other party was really very strong?

He quickly rejected that conclusion.

"He must have a treasure on him that can resist the damage of skills. That must be it. As long as I attack continuously, the other party will definitely be overwhelmed."

Thinking of this, Han Li smiled confidently again.

The first victory must be his.

"Cold Spear Flying Snow!"

He turned the spear, and the cold aura quickly gathered, forming countless ice spikes.

As he became faster and faster, the ice spikes continuously attacked Zhou Han.

"Let's see how you block it this time."

Han Li narrowed his eyes and smiled.

This was his ultimate move, a move that made countless prodigies in Blue Thunder City suffer.

"Block? Who said I wanted a block? You're too lousy. Let's end this!"

Han Li's strength could no longer interest Zhou Han.

He originally wanted to see what level the young talents of Blue Thunder City were at.

That was why he wasn't in a hurry to attack.

However, after seeing Han Li's attack, Zhou Han was disappointed.

Such damage was nothing to him. It posed no threat.

In that case, let's end this quickly!

As soon as Zhou Han thought of this, a ball of black energy condensed on his palm.

It was the start of the soul skill, Shadow Soul Spike.

When the black energy condensed to the size of a basketball, Zhou Han threw it out forcefully.

The black ball instantly turned into a few spikes and rushed towards Han Li.

"Hmph! How can you hurt me?"

Seeing the sharp spikes, Han Li directly used his skill to resist.

Unexpectedly, the Soul Spike passed through his skill and went straight for his body.

"What's this? Ah! It hurts…"

Han Li's confident face instantly turned pale.

A sharp pain shot through his soul.

He howled in pain and quickly fainted.

"Hehe, you sure can talk big. I can't hurt you?"

As it turned out, the Soul Spike had not only injured him but almost killed him.

The entire battle was completed in an instant.

It was so fast that no one could see it clearly.

They found Han Li lying on the ground like a dead dog.

Zhou Han waited for a long time but did not hear the referee's announcement.

Therefore, he looked over and realized that the other party was still in shock and had completely forgotten about the competition.

"Ahem…"

Zhou Han could only cough to remind him that he did not have time to waste here.

Ads by Pubfuture

"First match, Zhou Han wins!"

The judge also reacted and read the result.

He looked at Zhou Han with a trace of fear in his eyes.

He wasn't one of those ignorant onlookers.

When Zhou Han released his skill, he was the closest and felt a chill run down his spine.

It seemed that he had misjudged this guy. Previously, he thought that he had gotten in through the back door. He did not expect him to have hidden skills.

Lieutenant Wei Chao, who was standing on the high platform, also saw this battle.

When did such a powerful young man appear in Blue Thunder City?

'That's interesting!'

He began to look forward to Zhou Han's performance.

Chapter 42: Overturning Expectations, Raging Flood Saber Technique

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han walked down the arena with a relaxed expression. He went to the competition area and waited for his next opponent.

The surrounding crowd could not remain calm and started discussing.

It was obvious that they were suspicious of Zhou Han's performance.

"What the hell? Han Li actually lost. This doesn't make sense!"

"Yes, it's really strange. Could Zhou Han be a hidden expert?"

"Hmph! How is that possible? I reckon it's a scheme. Did he see that black energy just now?"

"Yes, it's very strange. Perhaps this is the problem."

These people clearly did not believe that Zhou Han would have such strength.

Ads by Pubfuture

This was a guy who relied on connections. They were very angry about it.

Therefore, even though Zhou Han won, their eyes were filled with suspicion. They found all kinds of reasons to convince themselves.

It was mainly an unknown guy who suddenly entered the top ten.

Their hearts could not accept it.

"Han Li is still not good enough. He's still inferior to the true prodigies of Blue Thunder City."

"Very good. Let's see how he faces this. This time, it's the popular candidate for first place, Hong Peng, the core disciple of the Hong family."

"I heard that his Raging Flood Saber Technique is powerful and has already reached perfection. This time, Zhou Han will definitely not be able to resist."

"Zhou Han must lose. I bet he won't be able to withstand three strikes."

"Three strikes? Hehe! You think too highly of him! Hong Peng is not someone Han Li can compare to. He comes from a big family and has abundant resources. Moreover, he is specially nurtured as a core disciple."

"Let's not talk about it for now. There's a good show coming."

At this moment, everyone fell silent and held their breaths as they watched the scene in the arena.

Zhou Han and Hong Peng were already in position in the arena.

Hong Peng was burly and carried a large saber on his back. His eyes were filled with hostility.

He didn't look like a young man at all. He looked more like a weathered uncle.

"Kid, have you heard of my Raging Flood Saber Technique? I'm not something trash like Han Li can compare to."

Hong Peng drew his saber and slung it over his shoulder as he spoke domineeringly.

Clearly, as a prodigy of Blue Thunder City, he was arrogant enough.

He had also seen the battle between Zhou Han and Han Li just now.

He was confident that the other party would not be able to withstand his fierce saber technique.

"I've never heard of it. Could there be something special about it?"

Zhou Han said cooperatively with a trace of doubt on his face.

The Raging Flood Saber Technique was such a trashy name. It sounded very low class.

It was probably a lousy cultivation technique.

"Good. Now go down on your own! I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my knife. I'm not sure what will happen then."

Hong Peng had a cold smile on his face, looking confident that he would win. Zhou Han was not his match at all.

One had to know that he had successfully cultivated the Raging Flood Saber Technique to the third level. It could produce a saber aura and injure people invisibly.

"Oh? Are you that confident? Unfortunately, you won't have a chance!"

Zhou Han had a relaxed smile on his face as he checked the other party's attributes.

Zhou Han had a relaxed smile on his face as he drew his sword.

The aura on his face changed and he attacked.

"Eight Directional Heaven Splitter!"

With speed, it whistled over and headed straight for Hong Peng.

The onlookers were also shocked.

Of course, he was not shocked by Zhou Han's aura, but by his courage.

One had to know that Hong Peng had an extremely strong body and refined saber techniques.

Rushing up to fight him now was completely courting death.

"Haha! There's no need to watch. He actually dares to face Hong Peng head-on. Who gave him the courage?"

"How reckless. You don't have any sense?"

"I can imagine Zhou Han's sorry state next!"

At this moment, Hong Peng was smiling.

If Zhou Han had been fighting with him previously, he might have wasted some time killing the other party.

However, now that he dared to attack head-on, the consequences were obvious. He would definitely be killed instantly.

"Hmph! Fool, you're lost!"

"Watch my move, Torrent Slash!"

"It's over!"

Hong Peng held the knife in both hands, the veins on his forehead bulging. His face became ferocious because of the huge force.

With a loud shout, a violent saber aura instantly poured out.

It was like a torrent with powerful might.

It shocked everyone else.

Previously, they had only heard that this move was powerful and incomparably powerful.

Today, they finally saw it with their own eyes. The shock was even stronger.

At the same time, he looked at Zhou Han gloatingly. If he encountered such a tough opponent, he would definitely die.

"Boom…"

With a loud bang, Zhou Han's sword aura collided fiercely with the other party's saber aura.

A huge crack came from the arena, becoming dilapidated.

A huge cloud of dust blew up. It was impossible to see what was going on inside.

"Hiss… This power is too terrifying. Zhou Han is probably crippled."

"Hehe, I feel so good."

"Poor kid! He wouldn't have suffered like this if he had surrendered earlier."

At this moment, although they said that he was pitiful, they were indeed smiling happily.

However, when the dust dissipated, there was only a standing figure in the arena. The other was already lying on the ground, his fate unknown.

At first, they thought that Zhou Han was already lying on the ground.

All of them were wide-eyed and dumbfounded when they saw him standing.

What was going on?

Zhou Han was actually still standing there?

It was obvious that Zhou Han had obtained this victory.

Their faces were filled with disbelief.

The prodigy of Blue Thunder City was actually defeated by Zhou Han.

How strong was the other party?

It was unimaginable.

At this moment, there was no longer mockery in his eyes, but deep reverence.

"Damn! This is really hidden! I didn't expect Zhou Han to be so strong."

"I misjudged you! I want to apologize for what I said."

"I remember that you mocked Zhou Han just now. Now you're afraid?"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Don't talk nonsense. Aren't you harming me? If Zhou Han finds out, won't I be in trouble?!"

"The next competition is interesting. I wonder if Zhou Han will continue to win."

In the next match, Zhou Han insta-killed his opponent.

No one could stop his sword.

One of them would fall when the sword was unsheathed.

It was completely dark.

The world of Blue Thunder City was nothing.

"It's been eight rounds. There's one more left. It's too easy."

Zhou Han looked at the two people fighting in the arena and muttered to himself in his seat.

The final victor of the competition would fight Zhou Han for first place.

Chapter 43: City Lord's Daughter, Bai Linglong

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The two people fighting in the arena were indeed very powerful.

This was Zhou Han, the most powerful young man they had seen in Blue Thunder City.

The man on the left was called Jiang Chen.

Zhou Han heard that the other party was a disciple of the Jiang family.

Blue Thunder City was a huge city with many forces intertwined.

After hearing the system's information and the explanation of the surrounding crowd, Zhou Han roughly understood the division of forces.

The four most prosperous families at the moment were the Bai, Jiang, Nie, and Hong families.

They occupied 99% of the resources of Blue Thunder City.

As the second-ranked Jiang family, they naturally had a rich foundation.

Jiang Chen had been nurtured by the family with his outstanding talent. He was very powerful, which was why he could easily enter the top three.

Standing on the right was the daughter of the City Lord, Bai Linglong.

Not only did she have stunning talent, but she also had unparalleled beauty. She was known as the number one beauty in Blue Thunder City.

At this moment, her white clothes were fluttering, and her jade-like skin and peerless face made the audience drool.

Coupled with her noble status, she was like a fairy that no one dared to profane.

"Miss Bai, you're getting more and more beautiful!"

"As expected of my goddess. Oh my God, she actually looked at me."

"Are you f*cking shameless? She's looking at Zhou Han. You rookie, you don't know anything."

"As expected, beauties like the strong. Pity I don't have a chance."

Bai Linglong's beauty immediately received a wave of praise.

"Hmm?"

He saw Bai Linglong looking over.

Zhou Han was a little puzzled. He did not seem to know her.

Their eyes met. Zhou Han could feel the provocation in the other party's eyes.

It seemed that she was confident about winning and wanted to fight for first place with him!

"I don't want beauties. Sorry, with me around, you have no chance at all."

Soon, the two people in the arena attacked.

A huge battle was about to begin. Blades flashed and swords flashed.

"City Lord, why have you come in person?"

On the high platform, Wei Chao looked nervously at the middle-aged man approaching with infinite respect.

"Yes. How was it? Did you find any good seedlings?"

Bai Wuhen nodded and sat in the main seat.

He took some time out of his busy schedule to watch the battle mainly to see his daughter's performance.

He wanted to see if anyone new had appeared.

"City Lord, a special talent really did appear."

Wei Chao replied hurriedly.

"Oh? Special? What's special?"

Bai Wuhen asked casually, but his eyes were paying attention to Bai Linglong's battle in the arena.

"There's a young man. All his opponents were insta-killed. They had no chance to fight back at all."

"There's such a powerful junior? What's his name?"

Bai Wuhen was immediately interested and asked curiously.

"This person's name is Zhou Han. His sword technique is very profound, far surpassing others of the same age."

Wei Chao pointed in Zhou Han's direction and reported.

Even at their age, it was probably very difficult for their swordsmanship to reach Zhou Han's level.

Therefore, he admired it very much.

"Zhou Han? He's not from the four families? I've never heard of such a person before."

Bai Wuhen stroked his beard, his eyes flickering. No one knew what he was thinking.

"I made a point of investigating. He doesn't belong to any faction. It's as if he suddenly appeared. It's unbelievable."

If not for the fact that he had repeatedly confirmed that Zhou Han was a spy of the demons,

After all, such a powerful old man could not have been so unknown and not been discovered until today.

Therefore, there had to be a secret. As for what it was, he had no idea.

"Yes, I understand! I'll see how he performs later."

As the lord of a city, he naturally knew a lot of secrets.

He knew that the Godfiend Continent was very mysterious and that some people from other worlds would appear.

This Zhou Han was very likely from another world.

As for why he had come or what his purpose was, it had nothing to do with him.

As long as it did not harm Blue Thunder City, it was fine.

He reined in his thoughts.

"Linglong's cultivation has improved a lot again! I wonder who's stronger between her and Zhou Han. I'm looking forward to it."

Bai Wuhen stroked his beard and said with a smile, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"Eldest Miss has inherited your teachings, my lord. She will definitely be unstoppable."

"You only know how to flatter people!"

Bai Wuhen looked a little reproachful, but he was already overjoyed.

Indeed, Bai Linglong was taught by him personally.

He was undoubtedly the number one expert in Blue Thunder City. How could such guidance be the same as others?

There was no doubt that he would defeat Zhou Han. The key was how long Zhou Han could last!

"Hmm? Father is also here to watch the battle. I'm going to use my full strength next and display my strongest strength. As for Zhou Han, I'm sorry!"

Seeing Bai Wuhen on the viewing platform, Bai Linglong's eyes lit up.

She had to perform well and surprise everyone present. Only then would her father be proud.

At the thought that she would attack with all her might, Zhou Han would definitely suffer.

There was a high chance he would be seriously injured.

"After that, I can compensate him with more supplies! Consider it an apology."

Bai Linglong had already thought of how she would defeat Zhou Han, and her face revealed strong confidence.

Indeed, Zhou Han had won eight rounds previously and displayed powerful strength.

But that was in the eyes of others.

In her eyes, this was not enough.

She was the daughter of the City Lord, a top prodigy with beauty and strength.

To exaggerate, she did not care about the young talents in Blue Thunder City at all.

Even most people a generation older than her were no match for her.

That was the source of her pride.

"No. 19 Zhou Han, please enter the arena and prepare to compete for first place today."

As the referee announced loudly, Zhou Han shrugged and slowly walked onto the arena.

Bai Linglong was already waiting in the arena, her eyes filled with frost. 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"This guy has no manners. He's slow. No man has ever made me wait this long."

Bai Linglong was a little unhappy when she saw Zhou Han's indifferent expression.

Every man would fawn over her beauty and be eager to show their most perfect side.

This guy actually dared to ignore her.

"Zhou Han, show me your true strength! I want to completely suppress you."

Bai Linglong's clothes fluttered as she smiled.

Only when the other party displayed his greatest strength would it cause more shock when she defeated him.

This would form a stark contrast.

Chapter 44: Is Miss Bai in Pain?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In that case, her first place would be indisputable.

In the future, people would make such discussions.

Look at that Zhou Han. He was stunning and had eight consecutive victories. In the finals, he was even more shocking.

He unleashed a powerful ultimate move with extraordinary power.

However, he was still defeated by Bai Linglong, the daughter of the City Lord.

Looking at it this way, the contrast was obvious.

This was also the reason why Bai Linglong asked Zhou Han to use his strongest strength.

Only by defeating the other party's strongest move head-on could such a victory make one speechless.

Ads by Pubfuture

Otherwise, if she defeated the other party easily, someone might say that she was lucky.

Thinking of this, Bai Linglong smiled.

"Wow, the goddess's smile is so charming. I'm so jealous!"

"Goddess will definitely win. Defeat Zhou Han. Goddess, you can do it."

The surrounding crowd was cheering and cheering for Bai Linglong.

Zhou Han immediately smiled when he heard this.

"Are you sure you want me to go all out? I'm afraid I'll make you cry!"

He said it seriously, and he was telling the truth.

[Unparalleled Sword Lady—Bai Linglong] 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝑚

[Level: 46]

[Life: 6,000]

[Attack: 2,460]

[Defense: 802]

[Weapon: Sky Dust Sword]

[Equipment: Mystic Fairy Set]

[Accessory: Guardian Necklace]

[Cultivation Technique: Heavenly Jade Sword Technique]

Her level was very high, and her attributes were very strong.

The lethality of the cultivation technique was also extremely high.

However, it was still not enough in front of Zhou Han.

The equipment on her was all Platinum-grade, but it was not as strong as Zhou Han's Gold-grade equipment.

This was the advantage of SSS-rank Infinite Enhancement.

Low-level equipment could crush high-level equipment through enhancement.

When Bai Linglong heard this, her gaze changed and she looked at Zhou Han coldly.

Saying such frivolous words was obviously teasing him.

He had to teach her a lesson for saying such things in public.

No man in Blue Thunder City dared to say such words. Zhou Han was the first.

"Shameless boasting. Use your strongest move. I want to defeat you head-on!"

Bai Linglong unsheathed her Sky Dust Sword and pointed it at Zhou Han with a cold glint.

"Fine! You said it. I'll do it!"

Zhou Han was such an easygoing person.

He always tried his best to satisfy the requests of beautiful women.

"Watch carefully, Sword Aura Storm!"

Zhou Han did not waste any time and directly activated the skill he had fused previously.

It was his strongest move so far.

With that, a violent sword aura spread around him.

Sizzle! Sizzle!

Under the slash of the sword aura, the air trembled.

The smile on Bai Linglong's face gradually disappeared, replaced by seriousness.

She was surprised to see such power.

She did not expect Zhou Han to be so strong, which was beyond her expectations.

"Even so, you're no match for me!"

Bai Linglong firmly believed that as the daughter of the City Lord, she would never fail.

The sword aura grew thicker, forming a storm that swept over them like a tornado.

"Hmm? This aura… oh no!"

Bai Wuhen's calm expression changed drastically.

Bai Linglong could not resist such power at all, and her life would be in danger.

However, as the city lord, he could not interfere with the competition. He was anxious, but he did not attack.

"Ah…"

There was a scream.

The violent storm had just touched Bai Linglong when it sent her flying.

It collapsed with a single strike, unable to resist.

"What… what's going on? He defeated Bai Linglong in one move?"

"This child will definitely become great. His future achievements are limitless! Don't provoke him in the future to avoid trouble."

"Oh, my goddess flew out. I don't know if she hurt herself from the fall. My heart hurts!"

"Zhou Han really doesn't have any pity for the fairer sex. He's so ruthless!"

"Are you a man or not? If it were me, I would have taken the initiative to admit defeat. I don't even know how to give in to a goddess."

After seeing the outcome of the battle, everyone discussed it.

Clearly, Zhou Han had already become an influential figure in Blue Thunder City.

Some were wary, others angry. Everyone was discussing him.

"Damn! This power is too strong!"

Zhou Han did not expect this move to be so terrifying.

At this moment, the surroundings were in chaos.

The floor within a 30-meter radius was lifted.

The ground was covered with the marks of sharp sword slashes.

He looked at Bai Linglong, who was lying not far away, covered in mud.

Her previous arrogant aura was gone.

Instead, she was battered and exhausted.

Seeing this, Zhou Han was a little embarrassed.

After all, the other party was the number one beauty in Blue Thunder City. Now that he had reduced her to such a state, and with so many people watching,

Actually, it was not Zhou Han's fault.

Firstly, he did not know that the Sword Aura Storm would be so violent.

Secondly, he saw that Bai Linglong was wearing Platinum equipment. No matter what, she could resist it.

He did not expect it to be such a scene.

"Am I that strong already?"

Zhou Han sighed in his heart.

At this moment, Bai Linglong, who was lying on the ground, had already woken up.

Still, she pretended to faint.

It was embarrassing for so many people to see her embarrass herself.

This was the first time she had been so embarrassed. She could not accept it.

"Zhou Han, I'll remember this! I'm not done with you. Just wait."

Bai Linglong roared hysterically in her heart, wishing she could cut Zhou Han into pieces.

He actually hit a beauty like her so hard.

What a blockhead. He didn't know how to be gentle with women at all.

She was angry and embarrassed at the thought.

As the referee announced, Zhou Han also confirmed the position of first place.

The selection competition ended here.

"Zhou Han, it's impossible to enter the Demon Slayer Division without a strong physique. This Sword Bone Pill is your reward. Please keep it well!"

Soon, a guard came to give Zhou Han a reward.

"Thank you for your trouble!"

After he took the prize from the guard, there was a prompt.

[You have obtained the Sword Bone Pill. Do you want to check it?]

Zhou Han immediately checked.

It was actually Platinum-grade.

Moreover, it increased defense and health, making his physique stronger.

Zhou Han immediately enhanced it six times and started reading.

[Sword Bone Pill +6]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Effect: After use, the bones will become like a sword, extremely tenacious and hard. HP will permanently increase by 5,000 points, and defense will permanently increase by 500 points.]

[Description: A one-time consumable. You can only consume one of the same types of pill. It is ineffective after being consumed multiple times.]

He did not expect it to increase his HP and defense by 500 points.

Zhou Han was overjoyed and immediately consumed it.

A pure power flowed into his limbs and surged, tempering his body.

His bones cracked and his blood became more exuberant.

Chapter 45: True Spirit Summoning, Demon Slayer Token

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A few minutes later, the entire transformation was finally over.

Zhou Han clenched his fists tightly.

Now, his body was even stronger, and his aura had become sharper.

If he faced a Gold-grade demonic beast now, he was confident that he could kill it instantly.

[You got first place in the talent selection mission.]

[You gained a massive amount of experience.]

At this moment, there was also a notification that the mission was over.

However, without the multiplier of the experience card, the massive experience bonus was not much.

Zhou Han took a look. His current level had reached 58.7% of Level 22.

However, no matter what, it was still better than killing monsters.

"Zhou Han, please come over. Our City Lord wants to see you."

After seeing Zhou Han consume it, the guard said.

The City Lord had seen it before. It should be about the Demon Slayer Division!

Zhou Han nodded and followed the guard.

"Very good, you're Zhou Han? You're indeed talented!"

Seeing Zhou Han come, Bai Wuhen stroked his beard and smiled, his eyes filled with admiration.

"Greetings, City Lord Bai!"

Zhou Han cupped his hands politely.

He was relieved. After all, he had taught the man's daughter a lesson.

On the way over, he was worried that the other party would make things difficult for him. He thought of a solution.

It seemed that he was thinking too much and did not see the scene in the novel.

The protagonist was enemies with the entire world. If he was unhappy, he would fight.

After all, the other party was the City Lord. If he did not have such tolerance, how could he last long?

"This is a token for the Demon Slayer Division. You can report there tomorrow!"

Seeing the inexplicable smile on Bai Wuhen's face,

After Zhou Han thanked her, he took the token in confusion.

The token was made of gold. Zhou Han's name was carved on the back, and the words 'Demon Slayer' was written on the front.

There was a hint of sharpness in the vast atmosphere.

"I didn't expect a token to be so powerful. The strength of the City Lord can be imagined!"

"This, this is…"

Just as Zhou Han was checking, a violent sword intent rushed towards him.

His hair stood on end.

A strong sense of crisis quickly overcame him.

It was too fast and too close to react.

"True Spirit Summoning…"

At the critical moment, Zhou Han summoned the True Spirit.

[True Spirit Ring +5] Special Effect 2.

Every time he dealt 100,000 damage, he could summon a True Spirit. (190,000/100,000)

Now that his damage had accumulated to 190,000, it was enough to summon once.

A silver wolf soul flew out of the ring and attached itself to the sword intent.

"Boom…"

Two huge waves of energy collided.

Soon, the aftershock dissipated into the air.

Zhou Han took a few steps back before stabilizing himself.

Fortunately, the dangerous situation was resolved and there was no damage.

Seeing that Zhou Han had actually resolved it so easily,

Bai Wuhen was shocked and stood up from his seat.

"City Lord Bai, what do you mean?"

At this moment, Zhou Han's expression was very ugly as he questioned coldly.

"Zhou Han, don't be excited. This is a necessary step to enter the Demon Slayer Division. The first is to test your strength, and the second is to prevent the demons from sneaking in."

You've encountered demons before. You know their disguises are very powerful."

Lieutenant Wei Chao hurriedly explained.

After all, it was indeed easy to misunderstand.

"Lieutenant Wei is right. I hope you understand." Bai Wuhen also said.

This process had always been like this, but he still hid a little selfishness.

He had strengthened the sword intent stored in the token a lot. He originally wanted Zhou Han to suffer a loss and avenge his daughter.

Of course, he could not say such a thing out loud.

Unexpectedly, not only did Zhou Han block the sword intent, but he was also unscathed.

It seemed that he had underestimated the young man in front of him! 𝚋𝚎d𝚗ov𝚎𝚕.co𝚖

"…"

Hearing this, Zhou Han was a little speechless.

Despite the rules, he was unhappy.

"Just you wait! When the time comes, I'll take your daughter from you."

Zhou Han thought fiercely.

Bai Wuhen's combat strength was too strong. At the moment, he was no match for him.

"Since the City Lord has said so, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave!"

Since the matter was over, there was no point in Zhou Han staying here anymore. He stood up and bade farewell.

"This Demon Slayer Token is very important. You have to keep it safe."

Before leaving, Wei Chao also instructed.

On the way, Zhou Han checked the information of the Demon Slayer Token.

[Demon Slayer Token]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Description: A symbol of the Demon Slayer's identity. It can resist a blow from a Platinum-grade expert.]

[Description: Refined from Extraterrestrial Metal with mysterious abilities.]

He did not expect this Demon Slayer Token to be so powerful and be able to resist the attack of a Platinum-grade expert.

No wonder Wei Chao specially instructed him not to lose it. This material was very rare.

Although Zhou Han was not afraid of Platinum-grade experts, he could enhance them!

He wondered how effective it would be!

"Enhance it six times!"

[Enhancement successful. New data has been generated. Please check!]

[Demon Slayer Token +6]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Description: A symbol of the Demon Slayer's identity. It can resist a blow from a King-grade expert.]

[Special Effect 1: After killing demons, it can be recharged. There is also a certain chance of increasing its quality.]

[Description: Refined from Extraterrestrial Metal with mysterious abilities.]

Not bad, not bad. It could block a King-level attack.

This greatly enhanced his ability to survive.

Her unhappy mood suddenly became pleasant.

The morning had already passed. After Zhou Han ate something, he decided to go to the Valley of the Undead to farm monsters.

This was because, after Level 25, he could awaken for the first time. His heart was filled with anticipation.

[You have a new friend message. Do you want to check it?]

"Hmm?"

"Why are Han Xiangning and the others looking for me?"

"Are they in danger?"

After Zhou Han opened the friend panel, a dialog box popped up.

Han Xiangning: Zhou Han, come over quickly. We found a magical place.

Han Qinxue: Zhou Han, there's a spiritual fruit here, but there are powerful demonic beasts guarding it. We can't defeat it at all.

He took a look and was relieved to see that they hadn't been in danger after all.

Zhou Han: "Send me your coordinates!"

Seeing that there was a spiritual fruit, Zhou Han was a little tempted and hurriedly sent a message.

Han Xiangning: Fire Cloud Mountain Range (Coordinates: …)

Zhou Han: "Calm down and be careful. I'll be there soon."

After closing the friend panel, Zhou Han pulled up the relevant information about the Fire Cloud Mountain Range through the auxiliary system.

It was an area of the Valley of the Undead.

It was a continuous volcano with high temperatures.

The main inhabitants were demonic beasts, Gold-grade Fire Cloud Birds, and Platinum-grade Fire Qilin Cloud Sparrows.

Chapter 46: Two Women in Danger

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

None of them were very powerful. He could handle it.

After assessing the risk, Zhou Han quickly set off.

At this moment, in a wet and hot mountain range, the sisters were both sweating and lurking in the grass.

In front of them was a thick ancient tree that shot into the sky.

There were many sparkling and translucent fruits on it, emitting a strange fragrance.

But the sisters did not dare move.

This was because there were many Fire Cloud Birds perched on the branches. These birds were naturally close to the fire element, so the fire attribute attacks they unleashed were powerful.

Moreover, they were all Gold-grade. They could not deal with them.

Ads by Pubfuture

After all, Han Qinxue was a Clergyman, so she was purely support.

Han Xiangning was just a newbie Mage.

Perhaps to enhance her life-saving abilities, she chose the earth element.

Its defense was top-notch, so its output could not keep up.

Therefore, they sent a message to Zhou Han half an hour ago.

Only Zhou Han could deal with this situation.

"Sister, this place is so hot! Why isn't Zhou Han here yet?"

Han Xiangning complained. Her clothes were drenched.

He was pressed tightly against her delicate body, filled with endless temptation. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝗼𝐫𝗴

"Let's wait a little longer! You've seen Zhou Han's movement speed. It's probably very fast. We have to hide well. Otherwise, it'll be bad if we're discovered."

On the other hand, Han Qinxue was a little hot. She was drenched and her face was flushed.

But she was calmer and more patient than her sister.

"If I had known, I would have chosen ice magic. At least now I can cool down."

Han Xiangning was a little speechless and could only continue to wait.

When they discovered these spiritual fruits previously, they did not pay attention to their surroundings.

Unknowingly, they had entered the territory of the Fire Cloud Birds.

Now they dared not act rashly.

If they were discovered, it would spell trouble.

"Oh no, there are Fire Venom Bugs nearby. I'm afraid we're going to be exposed."

Han Qinxue relied on her vision talent to see the traces of the Fire Venom Bug. Her expression was very ugly as she said worriedly.

Fire Venom Bugs were one of the Fire Cloud Birds' favorite foods.

Once the Fire Cloud Bird came over to hunt, there was a high chance that they would be discovered.

"Then we'll move slowly and get farther away from the Fire Venom Bugs."

Han Xiangning immediately gave a suggestion.

"Squeak, squeak…"

Before they could move, the cry of a bird came.

The cry was urgent and filled with anger.

"We've been discovered. Retreat!"

Han Qinxue's expression changed and she hurriedly shouted.

Soon there was a huge fire behind them.

Behind them was a flock of Fire Cloud Birds, their eyes fierce.

They used the skill [Rain of Fire].

Flames filled the sky and poured down on them like rain.

"Ah! It's hot! Earth Rock Armor, quickly possess me!"

Han Xiangning panted in pain, feeling like she had used her skill.

An earth-colored light covered her, but it was still difficult to resist the rain of fire.

"I'll increase speed. Wings of Holy Light!"

Han Qinxue also used the auxiliary skill of a Clergyman.

The two women became noticeably faster. Their happy mood instantly sank.

"It's over. There's still the Fire Qilin Cloud Sparrow ahead. We're surrounded."

"What should we do? Are we going to die here today?"

"Sigh, it's all my fault for discovering these spiritual fruits. Otherwise, this wouldn't have happened."

"Sister, don't say that. We sisters have company even if we die together. It's just that we haven't found a good man yet. If I had known earlier, I would have…"

"Yes, Zhou Han is a good man. I also have a good impression of him."

"Sister, you really have designs on Zhou Han!"

"Sigh, what's the point of talking about this now?"

The sisters hugged each other and shivered, their faces filled with despair.

The sky was filled with flames as they approached. They hugged each other tightly and closed their eyes.

Zhou Han also saw the flames from afar and seemed to have sensed something.

Worried that something might happen to the sisters, he immediately activated his speed to the limit and sprinted over.

He happened to see this scene. At the critical moment, he used all his skills.

First, it was the Sword Aura Storm, then the Shadow Soul Spike, and the Eight Directional Heaven Splitter.

"Phew! Fortunately, I came in time!"

All kinds of skills instantly killed most of the Fire Cloud Birds and Fire Qilin Cloud Sparrows.

The remaining small number of skills were used on the sisters, but they both had Zhou Han's enhanced equipment.

Therefore, there was some damage, but it was not fatal.

Soon, the remaining demonic beasts were swept away by Zhou Han, and the crisis was completely resolved.

[You have a new skill unlocked. Do you want to check it?]

Zhou Han hurriedly took a look.

He realized that the second skill of the Fallen Leaf Sword Technique, Wind Thunder Dance, had been unlocked.

Because it was a Bronze-grade cultivation technique, it could only be enhanced three times.

After enhancing, Zhou Han saw the attributes.

[Wind Thunder Dance +3: A powerful sword intent will trigger wind and lightning, causing 5 times the damage to enemies within a 10-meter radius. It will use the wind to reduce the speed of all enemy units within a 30-meter radius by 90%.]

The base damage was not very high, but the speed reduction effect was very useful.

Reducing speed by 90% was a little ruthless. They could not move at all. It was no different from being crippled.

It was a very useful auxiliary skill.

Even if there were many enemies, they could not get close.

"Yes? We're not dead? What's going on?"

"Haha, I'm not dead. That's great."

"Zhou Han, did you save us? Are you dreaming?"

"Did you kill all these demonic beasts?"

After all this time, the sisters realized that they were actually fine.

They opened their eyes in confusion and found Zhou Han.

They immediately felt a sense of security.

After the sisters were saved, they were both happy and shocked.

There were hundreds of demonic beasts, including Gold and Platinum-grade ones. They were all killed in less than a minute.

Zhou Han's strength was getting stronger.

They remembered that when they teamed up with him the day before yesterday, they had to kill the Steel-Armored Pig by pulling monsters.

Now, he could kill Platinum-grade demonic beasts instantly.

Zhou Han closed the interface and looked at the sisters.

What he saw made his blood boil.

Ads by Pubfuture

At this moment, their clothes were drenched and stuck to their bodies.

All the tempting curves were outlined, especially Han Qinxue's gully, which was unfathomable.

It made Zhou Han a little mesmerized.

If not for the fact that they were in the middle of nowhere, Zhou Han really wanted to punish them on the spot.

'This is simply challenging my character!'

"Zhou Han, you're finally here. Thank you for saving us!"

"Zhou Han, that's great. I thought I would never see you again."

"Any later and we'd be dead."

Under Zhou Han's stunned gaze, the two women's eyes flickered with tears of gratitude.

They threw themselves into his arms.

Chapter 47: Permanent Five Times Experience Buff

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Looking at the two peerless beauties in his arms, Zhou Han felt a sense of accomplishment.

This was the joy of having two women! He had experienced it today.

However, feeling the softness of the two women, Zhou Han felt a little bitter.

This was the Valley of the Undead! There was danger everywhere.

Even if he wanted to do something indescribable now, he did not have the guts!

After all, some demons were already paying attention to him.

Wouldn't it be terrifying if the demons ambushed him while he was doing that?

Although he was very powerful now, he was not invincible. He still needed room to grow.

"Okay, okay, don't cry. Isn't it safe now?"

Zhou Han patted the two women's shoulders and comforted them.

At the same time, he pushed them away. Otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to hold back.

Han Qinxue also hurriedly woke up and blushed.

Because of her gratitude and the joy of escaping after the calamity, she could not help but throw herself into Zhou Han's arms.

Her sister already had feelings for Zhou Han.

As an older sister, of course, she could not compete with her younger sister.

Thinking of this, she restrained herself and kept a certain distance from Zhou Han.

"Zhou Han, let's go! Let's take a look at the spiritual fruits in front! We don't know what attributes they have!"

After Han Xiangning calmed down, she hurriedly got down to business.

'Come on, let's take a look. You guys stay behind me!'

After hearing about the spiritual fruit, Zhou Han instantly perked up. This was also the main goal of his trip.

In the Fire Cloud Mountain Range, other than the Fire Cloud Birds and the Fire Qilin Cloud Sparrow, there were also some hidden demonic beasts.

Therefore, Zhou Han paid attention to his surroundings as he walked.

Soon, he smelled a strange fragrance. It was the smell of spiritual fruits.

In front of him was a thick ancient tree that stood in the sky, emitting vitality.

A golden light flickered in the cyan aura.

"This ancient tree is indeed extraordinary. It has such rich energy. No wonder those Fire Cloud Birds like to perch on it."

"Indeed. Let's pluck the spiritual fruit first!"

The sisters sighed and began to pluck.

There were a total of ten spiritual fruits on the tree. They were the size of apples and emitted a sweet fragrance.

After Zhou Han took the spiritual fruit from Han Xiangning, he checked it.

[Jade Fruit]

[Grade: Gold]

[Description: After consuming it, the experience gained from killing monsters within 30 days will increase by 1.5 times.]

[Description: Limited to one use. Use multiple times is ineffective.]

After reading it, Zhou Han was overjoyed. It was actually a spiritual fruit that increased experience gain.

This was simply a divine artifact in the early stages!

The higher the level, the more functions you could activate.

It naturally widened the gap between him and others.

"Enhance it five times."

[Enhancement successful. Please check!]

[Jade Fruit +5]

[Grade: Gold]

[Description: After consuming it, the experience obtained in any way will be permanently increased to 5 times.]

[Description: Limited to one use. Use multiple times is ineffective.]

Good lord!

This was simply invincible.

After five enhancements, the enhancement effect was completely displayed.

First, the multiplier of experience went from 1.5 times to 5 times.

The time limit also changed from 30 days to a permanent buff.

Moreover, only the experience gained from killing monsters could be buffed previously.

But it was different now. Experience gained in any way.

In other words, through completing missions, killing monsters, special experience dungeons, and other methods, he could enjoy a five-fold increase.

It was simply too awesome!

He was taking off!

"Zhou Han, what's wrong? Why are you so happy?"

Ads by Pubfuture

Han Xiangning asked curiously as she watched him smile foolishly.

"Look for yourself. Don't be too surprised!"

Zhou Han did not explain much and handed her the enhanced [Jade Fruit].

"You're so mysterious. What… Ah! Hiss…"

Han Xiangning's curiosity was quickly replaced by shock.

Her beautiful eyes widened as she exclaimed.

What were the odds of a permanent fivefold buff?

It was difficult not to take off!

"Zhou Han, you're really too powerful. You can always create miracles!"

Han Xiangning held Zhou Han's hand and bounced around, her eyes filled with admiration.

"I have something better. Do you want to try it?"

Zhou Han whispered in her ear.

"Annoying, I'm talking to you about something serious!"

When Han Xiangning heard Zhou Han's words, her face turned red and she punched him.

-1

Zhou Han lost a drop of blood.

It seemed that the sisters were developing well. They could actually break through his defense.

Soon, the three of them consumed the enhanced [Jade Fruit]. The remaining seven were thrown into Zhou Han's spatial bag.

Then, after killing hundreds of Fire Cloud Birds, he dropped more than a dozen pieces of Gold equipment and picked them all up.

The sisters changed into their enhanced Gold equipment, and their combat strength increased.

"Zhou Han, you can put the remaining equipment in the shop and exchange them for some resources."

Han Qinxue hurriedly suggested that he should be thrifty.

"Right. I almost forgot. The new feature opened today. What's the difference between a shop and a direct transaction in the trading area?" Zhou Han asked curiously.

In the morning, Zhou Han was participating in the selection competition when he heard the system notification but he didn't look closely.

Then he received a message from the sisters. He had been busy until now.

He had almost forgotten about this.

Now that he heard Han Qinxue's reminder, he remembered.

"Of course, there's a difference. The number of transactions produced through the shop will be ranked. The higher the ranking, the more rewards." Han Xiangning explained.

"Oh? There's such a thing? I'll grope around now and see what's going on."

Hearing that there was a ranking, Zhou Han was immediately interested.

After saying that, Zhou Han chanted in his heart.

"Open the shop!"

[You're entering the shop for the first time. Please name your shop.]

Good lord!

'You want me to name it?'

He was a classic case of having bad naming sense.

"Let's call it the Myriad Treasure Tower!"

Under the constant urging of the system, Zhou Han had no choice but to come up with a name.

It was indeed a little low class, but it would make do!

[Naming successful. Please check the specific information.]

Soon, the virtual information of the shop appeared.

[Myriad Treasure Tower]

[Owner: Zhou Han]

[Transaction Amount: 0]

[Shop Level: Level 1]

[Visit: 0]

[Listed Goods: None]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Regional Ranking: 78,934]

[Note: When a certain number of transactions is reached, the store's level will increase. The higher the store's level, the more authority will be unlocked.]

The next level, Level 2, required an item with a transaction value of 5,000 gold coins or items worth 5,000 gold coins.

Not bad. This was interesting.

It was a little like e-commerce. It was so professional.

As expected of something from the Godfiend Continent, it was indeed powerful.

Then, Zhou Han looked at the front page of the shop

There was a list of the top ten shops.

"Let's see what they sell. Anything good."

Zhou Han directly clicked on the first shop.

Chapter 48: Ou Huang's Ambition, Equipment on Sale

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The owner of the first shop was Ou Huang.

That arrogant guy had obtained another Platinum equipment today.

He was bragging in the chat area.

"Wow, a big shot has appeared. I'll take a breath of your good luck. I'm now at the pottery merchant's shop. I'm prepared to draw ten in a row. I hope I get something top-grade."

"Boss, please teach me. What good experience do you have? Share it. How can you get lucky quickly?"

"Brother Ou is awesome. The shop is now far ahead of the rest!"

"Brother Ou, do you still want a lackey? Take me flying! I can attack and defend!"

"Add me. Let's discuss life!" 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎l.𝚘rg

Ads by Pubfuture

"Get lost. Are you as good as Brother Ou?"

At this moment, Ou Huang felt comfortable when he saw the flattery in the public chat.

He had awakened the A-rank talent, Luck Enhancement.

However, he endured it until the next day.

He had just shocked the world by obtaining many top-grade equipment.

Not only did it increase his reputation, but it also increased his combat strength.

He suddenly became an influential figure.

"Hmph! Zhou Han? That's all. Give me a few days and I'll definitely become the first on the level rankings."

Ou Huang opened the level ranking and smiled.

He had already successfully overtaken one.

[Level Ranking]

1. Zhou Han: Level 23 (84.6%)

2. Han Xiangning: Level 12 (10.9%)

3. Ou Huang: Level 12 (9.3%)

4. Han Qinxue: Level 12 (8.9%)

5. Jia Feiqiu: Level 10 (76.2%)

6. Gou Tuo: Level 10 (36.4%)

7. Mei Aoxue: Level 10 (13.0%)

8. Lin Fan: Level 9 (73.3%)

Although he was now ranked third, he was very confident.

This was because one's level would increase slower and slower.

Moreover, he relied on luck to obtain many top-grade equipment.

As time passed, he believed his advantage would increase.

It was easy to catch up to Zhou Han.

"I'm the man who's going to be number one in the entire district."

"My luck is off the charts again today. I actually got an Advanced Experience Card that increases my experience buff by 2.3 times."

"Zhou Han, just you wait!"

After Ou Huang used the Advanced Experience Card, he began to farm monsters crazily.

After entering Ou Huang's shop, Zhou Han was a little disappointed.

They were all ordinary equipment. The better ones were two or three pieces of Bronze equipment.

"That's it? You're first?"

"I can't even be bothered to pick up bronze equipment. It's a waste of time."

Zhou Han was a little speechless. They were all trash.

The other party's sales exceeded 5,000 gold coins and his level had reached Level 2.

"Is everyone so short of equipment now? Do players buy ordinary equipment like this?"

Zhou Han was a little puzzled and asked the sisters.

"Of course. Do you think everyone is like you? Full of luxurious equipment!"

"That's right. Many players don't even have all six pieces on them now. You don't know what's good for you!"

The sisters rolled their eyes. Zhou Han was definitely showing off.

Ads by Pubfuture

Otherwise, it was impossible to ask such a question.

In all honesty, Zhou Han was really not showing off. He had fallen into a mistake.

After all, this was the third day since he came to the Godfiend Continent.

He did not lack equipment and thought that others would not either.

"I see! Hehe, that's easy!"

Zhou Han seemed to have found a good opportunity to make a lot of money.

Since everyone was short of equipment, then his equipment was in high demand.

After all, the worst equipment in his bag was at least Silver-grade.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han immediately put his equipment on sale.

[Silver-grade equipment]

[Single Price: 100 gold coins per item, or equivalent supplies.]

[Quantity: 103]

Zhou Han directly packed all the equipment in the package and put them on the shelf. He wanted to test the waters first.

This price was not high. It could be said to be very friendly.

Why was the price so low?

First, it was to increase sales, which was the ranking of sales.

Secondly, after this period of time, Silver-grade equipment would be worthless.

He might as well sell them all now.

[Congratulations, it was successfully put on the shelves.]

After hearing the notification, Zhou Han decided to advertise in the chat area.

After all, good stuff could go buried unnoticed.

Now that his shop's ranking was at the bottom, no one could read it.

"Brothers, there's a new batch of equipment on sale. The entire place is being sold at a high price. Everyone, come and buy it. Please search for the Myriad Treasure Tower and you can enter to buy it."

After organizing his words, Zhou Han sent this message to the chat area.

Although Zhou Han's arrival immediately caused the chat area to explode, there was praise and worship.

After all, Zhou Han had obtained the title of 'Famous'.

"Big shot, you actually have a humorous side. With such funny advertising slogans, I'll be your little fan from now on."

"Boss Zhou Han has put up the equipment. I have to take a look. I still have to bookmark the shop. I won't explain the five-star rating."

"What? A five-star rating? Do you think it's for shopping? Anyway, it's just some ordinary equipment. No matter how much there is, it's only Bronze-grade. I'm not interested."

"That's right. Although I admire Big Boss Zhou Han, I'd better not look at it. I don't lack Bronze equipment for the time being. I need Silver equipment now."

"Damn, 103 Silver-grade equipment are actually on sale. This is f*cking scary."

"You must be lying! It's all Silver-grade equipment. Can you brag more?"

Clearly, everyone thought that Zhou Han would at most get Bronze-grade equipment. Although they expressed their support, they were not interested.

Those who basically needed it had already bought it in Ou Huang's shop.

Moreover, no one believed that Silver equipment would be on sale.

Their thoughts were that they couldn't even wear enough. How could it be on the shelves?

[You have successfully sold a Silver-grade equipment. Gold coins +100.]

[You have successfully sold a Silver-grade equipment. Gold coins +100.]

The sound of transactions kept ringing in his ears, making Zhou Han's head hurt.

He hurriedly ordered the system to turn off the notification of the transaction information.

Ads by Pubfuture

It was expected that Silver-grade equipment would sell well.

At this moment, everyone in the chat area regretted missing out on Silver-grade equipment.

"Damn, it's really Silver equipment. I was lucky to snatch one, nice!"

"I f*cking regret it. I was just a step too late. It's my fault for hesitating."

"Yes, Big Boss Zhou Han, I'm sorry. We should have believed you."

"Boss, is there any more Silver-grade equipment? I want to buy one. I just gathered 100 gold coins."

"Do you think Silver-grade equipment is common? Where did so much come from?"

"Zhou Han is only relying on his early advantage. Do you really think he's so awesome? Who knows how he got these equipment?"

Soon, Ou Huang's lackeys found an opportunity to mock him.

Chapter 49: Ou Huang Is Frightened, Skill Unlocked

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

They had no choice but to be Ou Huang's lackeys. It was all for survival.

It was mainly because Zhou Han did not accept underlings and could only settle for being Ou Huang's lackey.

Therefore, their goal was to constantly belittle Zhou Han and not let him obtain a higher reputation.

At this moment, Ou Huang's expression was a little ugly. He saw that he had already become second on the shop rankings.

The first-ranked shop, the Myriad Treasure Tower, was Zhou Han's.

"Who knows where he got these equipment? He might have killed and robbed them."

Ou Huang thought indignantly and gave his guess.

Of course, he definitely wouldn't say his guess on the public chat.

Ads by Pubfuture

He was not a fool. He would not jump out to fight Zhou Han as Chen Beixuan did. The outcome was very tragic.

Before he had absolute confidence in dealing with Zhou Han, he would not fight him head-on.

At most, he would get his lackeys to create some public opinion and target Zhou Han. 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝙣𝙚𝙩

"This brother is right. I really can't produce Silver equipment now."

Zhou Han smiled and sent this message.

Sure enough, after this message was sent, it attracted more mockery.

"Hehe, Zhou Han is only so-so! I thought he was very powerful."

"To think you guys support him so much!"

Zhou Han: I'm not done yet. I only have Gold-grade equipment now. Silver-grade? Sorry, I really don't fancy it.

After clicking send, Zhou Han put the Gold equipment in his bag on sale.

[Gold-grade equipment]

[Price: 500 gold coins or equivalent resources]

[Quantity: 86]

[You've successfully put Gold equipment on sale.]

"Damn, are you bragging? Brother Han, although I support you, how can Gold equipment be so easy to obtain?"

"Yes, I don't believe it either. It feels unreal."

"Zhou Han, did you see that? Don't think that you can brag just because you're the number one in the entire region."

Soon, even the fans who were originally supporting Zhou Han did not believe it.

Gold equipment! That was completely beyond their imagination.

In less than a minute, the situation changed again.

"You people who don't believe Brother Han, come over and slap yourself in the face. What is this? Look for yourself. Khorium ."

"Damn, it's really Gold equipment. There are 86 pieces on sale. That's too exaggerated!"

"Those who mocked Brother Han, feel free to say it again."

"Yes, come out. How dare you slander Brother Han? You're really courting death."

Of course, at this moment, Ou Huang's troublemakers did not dare to fart. Their faces hurt.

Ou Huang was also shocked. He knew better than anyone what Gold equipment was.

There were 86 of them. That was more than exaggerated. It was terrifying.

It seemed that he was far from being Zhou Han's match.

He quickly stopped these lackeys from provoking Zhou Han.

His face was also unreadable, his eyes dark.

"I have to continue to endure. Given time, surpassing him won't be a problem at all."

Ou Huang was still very confident in his A-rank talent, Luck Enhancement.

"Brother Han is awesome. As expected of the number one in the entire region. How domineering!"

"Brother Han, when are you going to form a guild? We'll all follow you."

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have suspected Brother Han."

"I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry."

Soon, the public chat was flooded with the words 'sorry'.

After Zhou Han finished reading, he only smiled and did not say anything else.

He opened the shop again and started reading.

[Myriad Treasure Tower]

[Owner: Zhou Han]

[Manager: None]

[Transaction Amount: 35,300]

[Shop Level: Level 3]

[Visit: 1,045,000]

[Listed Goods: 36 Gold Equipment]

[Regional Ranking: 1]

[Acquisition Area: Unread Messages 99+]

[Note: New acquisition area. Players can place pictures of themselves and the items they want to sell on it and make an offer.]

Seeing the acquisition area, Zhou Han's eyes lit up.

In this case, if other players had good things in the future, he could also spend resources to exchange with them.

This was simply too convenient.

The transaction amount reached 35,300 gold coins, and the shop's level successfully rose to Level 3.

There were 36 pieces of Gold equipment left, and 50 had been sold.

After all, it was 500 gold coins. 90% of the people did not have so many assets.

Therefore, the Gold equipment were not sold out so quickly.

However, according to today's progress, there was a high chance that it would be sold out.

"But what's the store manager for?"

[You can hire the store manager to help manage the shop and be in charge of selling products and advertising.]

After hearing the system's answer, Zhou Han understood.

He definitely did not have the time to manage the shop.

There was so much information every day in the acquisition area. If he really had to read them one by one, he probably wouldn't have the patience.

In that case, he might miss something good.

Therefore, he could hire someone to manage it, saving a lot of time and energy.

He did not expect it to be so humane. Zhou Han could not help but admire the power of the Godfiend Continent system.

As for the manager candidate, Zhou Han already had the answer.

That was naturally Han Qinxue.

She was more mature and meticulous. She was the best candidate.

"Qinxue, I'd like you to help manage my shop. I wonder what you think?"

He was sure, but he had to ask her permission first, so he asked.

"Ah! Me, me?"

Han Qinxue did not expect Zhou Han to let her manage it.

She immediately blushed and thought of the kind of scene where a husband let his wife manage his money.

Then, he glanced at Han Xiangning guiltily and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that she did not react.

"Yes, you. Things might get a little messy. How about that?"

Zhou Han did not mention anything about the payment. Now that the three of them had an extraordinary relationship, it was meaningless to mention this.

There was good stuff so the sisters would definitely be included.

"Yes, of course, I'm willing," Han Qinxue said hurriedly.

She was still very happy to be able to share some of Zhou Han's burden.

At least he was no longer a burden.

Seeing that she agreed, Zhou Han nodded in satisfaction.

"I'll give you permission now. Go in and familiarize yourself."

[Do you want to grant Player Han Qinxue store authority?]

After Zhou Han agreed, Han Qinxue also received a notification.

Then she entered the acquisition area and dealt with the information inside.

Ads by Pubfuture

She was quickly in the zone.

The work was done here.

The three of them had left the range of the Fire Cloud Mountain Range. The air was suddenly much cooler.

There were still a few hours until dark.

He had to hurry up and farm monsters to level up. He had to reach Level 25 today and complete his first awakening.

With the permanent buff of five times the experience, it wouldn't take long.

However, before killing the monsters, Zhou Han had to unlock his ultimate move.

"Unlock the skill, Myriad Swords Return!"

[Your attack power has reached 2,000. You meet the unlocking standard.]

[30,000 gold coins deducted. Unlocked successfully! Please check!]

Chapter 50: Myriad Swords Return, Sword God's Will

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Actually, when his attack power reached 2,000 previously, Zhou Han knew that the [Myriad Swords Return] was already activated.

However, it required 30,000 gold coins to activate.

At that time, he did not have so many gold coins on hand that he could not take them out at once.

It just so happened that he had easily earned a large number of gold coins today by selling equipment.

Therefore, Zhou Han activated his skill without hesitation.

This was the ultimate move of the Sword Soul!

It went without saying that it was very powerful.

However, the exact effect still depended on the description.

Soon, the description of the skill slowly appeared on the virtual interface.

[Myriad Swords Return: Ultimate Sword Intent, resonate with ten thousand swords. Deals 10 times the physical damage to all enemy units within a 30-meter radius. Every enemy unit killed will increase all attributes by 10%. The upper limit is 500%. Duration: 100 seconds.]

"It has a tenfold damage increase before it's enhanced. As expected of the Sword Soul's ultimate move, it's too powerful."

After reading it, Zhou Han was amazed.

Moreover, killing enemies could increase all attributes by five times.

This group attack skill was simply too awesome.

'The more enemies there are, the stronger I am!'

After enhancing it, it would probably be even more shocking!

Zhou Han directly enhanced it six times.

[Myriad Swords Return +6: In the name of the Sword God, command all swords in the world. Deals 25 times the physical damage to all enemy units within a 100-meter radius. Every enemy unit killed will increase all attributes by 20%. The upper limit is 20 times. Duration: 300 seconds.]

The enhanced effect did not disappoint Zhou Han.

Even the description became extremely domineering.

In the name of the Sword God.

Who was the Sword God?

Zhou Han did not know, but he was definitely a super expert.

He could command ten thousand swords in the world.

The attack range became much larger, reaching a radius of 100 meters.

With 25 times the attack power, Zhou Han could deal more than a million damage.

Moreover, the increase in all attributes could reach 20 times.

All attributes included health, defense, attack, agility, strength, and so on.

If ten thousand players surrounded him, after killing them all, Zhou Han did not dare to imagine how terrifying his attributes would be.

He was looking forward to that scene.

'I wonder if this kind of damage can instantly kill the City Lord of Blue Thunder City, Bai Wuhen.' Zhou Han thought to himself.

But he was just thinking about it. After all, he still had to report to the Demon Slayer Division tomorrow.

It might even trigger other missions!

Moreover, who knew what trump cards the other party had?

Therefore, Zhou Han would not act rashly.

Then, he opened his attribute panel and looked at it.

[Zhou Han]

[Level: 23 (84.6%)]

[Class: Sword Soul (First Awakening at Level 25)]

[Health: 8,650+8,000]

[Attack: 1,090+3,900]

[Defense: 635+500]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]

[Title: Famous +3 (Attack +500)]

[Weapon: Green Cloud Sword +6 (Life Leech, 6x Attack, Armor Penetration)]

[Accessory: True Spirit Ring +5 (Ignore Armor, Summon True Spirit, +20% All Resistances)]

[Equipment: Ghost Set +5]

After consuming the [Sword Bone Pill], his HP and defense had increased significantly.

Now, these Gold-grade demonic beasts could not break his defense.

Although he had already far surpassed these players, Zhou Han was not smug.

His target was a powerhouse in the Godfiend Continent.

He still had a long way to go.

Immediately after, Zhou Han looked at all his current skills.

[Passive Skill: Sword Technique Expertise +6]

[Support Skills: [Aura Sensing +3], [Levitation +4], [Skill Combination +6], [Wind Thunder Dance +3]

[Damage Skills: [Eight Directional Heaven Splitter +4], [Shadow Soul Spike +5], [Sword Aura Storm +5], [Myriad Swords Return +6].]

Although the output of [Wind Thunder Dance] and [Eight Directional Heaven Splitter] was a little weak, one of them had a speed reduction effect, and the other had a stun effect.

At this stage, it was still useful.

Therefore, Zhou Han did not choose to fuse.

"I'm going to earn enhancement points again!"

After enhancing [Myriad Swords Return] six times, Zhou Han had very few enhancement points left.

He took one last look at the props in the package.

[Overlord Body Potion +2] x1, [Antidote Pill +4] x9, [Demon Slayer Token +6].

[Guard Card +4] x1, [Jade Fruit] x7

The supplies were still very abundant.

For example, the [Guard Card] and the [Demon Slaying Token] were his trump cards.

A tool that could save his life at critical moments.

Out of the Fire Cloud Mountain Range, there was a plain ahead.

According to the map, this area was called the Meandering Plains. There was also a wide river beside it.

"This is it. Start farming!"

Looking at the endless grassland in front of him, there were many demonic beasts appearing. They were also very dense and were especially easy to farm.

"Let me buff you first!"

With that, Han Qinxue activated her skill.

[Wings of Holy Light: Increases Speed by 100%, Attack Speed by 50%.]

A holy light fused with Zhou Han's body, and he instantly felt like he was about to take off.

The Ghost Set had already called for a lot of movement speed, but now it doubled.

Zhou Han tried using [Levitation] and jumped out like a gust of wind.

He drew his sword and kept harvesting in the plain.

His farming speed instantly increased a lot.

"Unfortunately, I can't enhance her Clergyman skills."

Zhou Han felt a little regretful.

If it could be enhanced, the speed would be terrifying.

[You have killed the Blood Mystic Beast and obtained 10 enhancement points.]

[You have killed the Wood Spirit Beast and obtained 11 enhancement points.]

As Zhou Han continued to harvest, his enhancement points and experience points were steadily increasing.

In a while, Zhou Han reached Level 24.

If he continued to farm like this, he would be able to reach Level 25 today.

On the other side of the Meandering Plains, two people were staring in Zhou Han's direction.

The man and the woman looked grim.

They were players from Zone 123 and had reached Level 10. After successfully changing their class, they also came here to farm monsters.

After they finally killed a few Gold-grade demonic beasts, they stopped to rest.

Zhou Han's movements were too loud and they noticed him.

His crazy harvesting stunned them.

"Sister, why is that guy so strong?! These demonic beasts can't fight back at all in his hands."

"These are all Gold-grade demonic beasts, and there are many Platinum-grade ones."

"That's ridiculous!"

The man's name was Rhoda and he looked shocked.

"It's indeed very powerful. The equipment on him is very high quality!"

"From his appearance, he should be a player. He probably obtained a huge opportunity. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so powerful."

Guo Mei voiced her guess, her eyes greedy.

She saw that Zhou Han's short hair was clearly different from the NPCs on the Godfiend Continent. 𝒷𝓮𝒹𝓃ℴ𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝓬𝓸𝓂

That was why she concluded that Zhou Han was a player.

"Why don't we kill him? Riches come from danger. No matter what, we're also in the top five of Zone 123. We're experts with A-rank talent."

"No matter how strong this guy is, can he defeat the two of us?"

A fierce look appeared on Rhoda's face, making the scar on his forehead even more ferocious.

When they were on Earth, they were ruthless people who broke the law.

In this dark world, they became even more unrestrained.

"Of course, we can't let this opportunity go. But we don't have to fight head-on."

"With a little strategy, it will definitely work!"

Guo Mei narrowed her eyes with a dangerous smile.

Chapter 51: Become Your Woman

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Oh? Sister, what's your plan? Tell me!"

"Damn, this is amazing. Sister is indeed powerful!"

After hearing Guo Mei whisper something in his ear, Rhoda's face lit up with excitement.

He did not expect Guo Mei to be so smart.

Such a scheme was absolutely foolproof.

At the thought of obtaining the other party's treasures after killing him, he trembled with excitement.

"After you're done, don't be in a hurry to kill him. Let me enjoy myself first."

Guo Mei licked her lips, her eyes lascivious.

Ads by Pubfuture

Seeing Zhou Han's handsome appearance, her heart trembled and she wanted to take him for herself.

"Can't I satisfy you? Sister, you actually want someone else."

Rhoda raised a hand to her chest, his tone querulous.

The other hand reached for her groin.

"Alright, now is not the time to do that. Hurry up and prepare. Hurry up."

Guo Mei slapped his hand away and rolled her eyes.

Then, the two of them began to prepare for the plan.

The sword aura flew past, and another Platinum-grade Golden-Armored Wild Lion fell to the ground.

"Oh my, a Platinum equipment dropped!"

He saw white light flash.

A piece of equipment fell from the air.

Zhou Han had killed many demonic beasts and dropped more than a dozen pieces of Gold equipment.

He did not see a single Platinum-grade item.

Now, one had finally dropped.

Of course, he was very happy.

[You have obtained Platinum equipment. Do you want to check it?]

Just as Zhou Han was about to check, he heard a cry for help not far away.

The voices were rushed and miserable. They kept coming.

"Hmm? Could another NPC have appeared?"

Thinking of talking to himself, he rushed over without stopping.

If he encountered NPCs in the wild, there was a high chance that he would receive some hidden missions.

The rewards for the mission were constantly a large number of experience points and some equipment or items.

Zhou Han was naturally very interested.

When he got closer, he finally saw what was in front of him.

It was two people, a man and a woman.

The man lay in a pool of blood, barely breathing.

The woman, on the other hand, hugged him and kept crying, making her chest heave and tremble.

She was good-looking, but looking at her age, she was not Zhou Han's type.

"So he was injured. He was probably attacked by a demonic beast and escaped death."

After Zhou Han scanned their attributes, he did not find anything unusual.

He approached and asked, "What happened? Can I help?"

"Young hero, you must save my brother. He was bitten by a Shadow Cat. I don't know about medicine. Can you help me take a look?"

Guo Mei looked anxious and pleading, pretending to be pitiful.

"Okay, let's not get ahead of ourselves. I'll check the extent of his injuries."

Because the Shadow Cat was a poison-type attack, there was a high chance that it was poisoned.

Zhou Han took out an [Antidote Pill].

However, he was a little puzzled. He had accepted the NPC's request, but there was no prompt to accept the mission.

Something felt wrong.

However, the person in front of him was indeed weak. It was more important to save his life.

At the thought of the demons' prying, he cautiously activated [Aura Sensing].

Just as Zhou Han was about to squat down… 𝒷ℯ𝒹𝓃𝓸𝓿ℯ𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝓶

"Huh! No, there's killing intent!"

He felt the killing intent coming from the man lying on the ground.

His expression changed, and he instantly knew that this was a trap aimed at him.

Seeing that Zhou Han was about to squat, Guo Mei knew that Rhoda was about to attack.

After subduing him, she could enjoy herself.

He was so excited at the thought that he could not close his legs.

Without hesitation, Zhou Han drew his sword and slashed.

On the ground, Rhoda did not expect Zhou Han not to squat.

Instead, he attacked first.

In a panic, he activated his skill, wanting to fight head-on.

However, how could he be Zhou Han's match?

He felt a huge force and his body flew out of control.

"Bang…"

Rhoda's body hit the ground hard.

With just one attack, his HP was greatly reduced.

He finally felt what fear was like.

After all, he was in the top five in his zone.

He thought that even if there was a difference, it wouldn't be much.

Now it seemed that the other party was stronger than imagined.

It all happened in a flash.

Only then did Guo Mei react from her reverie.

Her pretty face was filled with shock and fear.

How had the other party discovered the flaw?

She had planned her scheme so well.

First, he pretended to be an NPC and tricked Zhou Han into coming over.

Then she would use a honey trap to make the other party lose his guard.

Finally, there was Rhoda's assassination.

The entire plan was smooth, but it still fell short.

"Vine Wood Entanglement!"

Since the other party had seen through their scheme, he would definitely not let them off.

Without hesitation, she released her wood-type skill.

After casting the skill, he ran for his life without looking back.

She did not expect this skill to hurt Zhou Han.

If Rhoda couldn't fight back, she couldn't.

She only hoped to trap the other party for a while longer, giving her plenty of time to escape.

Instantly, many vines wrapped around Zhou Han.

The vines seemed to have a life of their own, desperately trying to grab him.

"Hmph! Insignificant skill, break!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a few sword auras flew out of his body.

It directly destroyed these vines.

Guo Mei looked behind her and was terrified.

The usually powerful [Vine Wood Entanglement] was actually unable to withstand a single blow from Zhou Han.

It couldn't even last three seconds.

Zhou Han had already chased over like the wind.

"Ah! Don't kill me. Please let me go. I'll do anything."

"I was forced to. That Rhoda threatened me. I couldn't resist his orders."

Seeing that she could not escape, Guo Mei immediately began to beg for mercy. Her expression was pitiful and filled with temptation.

"Who the hell are you? Why do you want to kill me?"

Zhou Han ignored the other party's pity. His expression did not change, and his eyes were filled with coldness.

"We're players from Zone 123. We're here to level up."

"This Rhoda saw that you were well equipped and had ill intentions. My repeated attempts to dissuade him were useless."

"Not only that, he forced me to plot to kill you."

Guo Mei said everything in one go, blaming everything on Rhoda.

She made herself sound innocent, like a complete victim.

"Is that all? Then you can go to hell."

Of course, Zhou Han did not believe her nonsense. This woman was obviously not easy to deal with.

Zhou Han would not have any pity for the person who wanted to kill him.

"Don't kill me. I'm willing to be your woman."

"I'm very good at what I do. I promise to serve you well."

Hearing that the other party still did not intend to let her off, Guo Mei panicked.

She immediately stripped off her clothes and used her final trump card.

Her porcelain-like body was revealed.

Her legs were long and straight.

She opened them slightly and showed a different scenery.

Mature charm was filled with endless temptation.

She believed no man could resist the way she was.

"Can you not kill me? Let's make love now. I want to be your woman. I—"

Guo Mei asked softly with a shy and hesitant expression.

Moreover, the man in front of him was handsome and powerful.

It was definitely a great blessing to be his woman.

At this moment, she was both afraid and excited.

But before she could finish, a sharp sword light greeted her.

The voice stopped abruptly.

Before she died, her eyes were filled with disbelief.

'A man ignored my charms?'

Chapter 52: The Shock in Zone 123, Luo Badao's Opinion

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han did not look at her again and walked away coldly.

"Ha! Be my woman? Are you worthy?"

Putting aside the other party's appearance and figure, just the fact that the other party wanted to kill him was unforgivable.

Even if she was the number one beauty in the universe, she had to die.

"Uh, I almost forgot. I wonder if anything dropped?"

"He reached Level 10 so quickly. There must be some opportunity. Otherwise, he wouldn't have leveled up so quickly."

Halfway there, Zhou Han suddenly remembered.

After all, there were less than 10 people in Zone 666 who had reached Level 10.

Ads by Pubfuture

It wasn't that easy to reach Level 10.

Zhou Han returned and flipped Guo Mei's body.

He wasn't very lucky. It was just a skill book and nothing else.

[You have obtained the Spirit Wood Technique. Do you want to check it?]

"Check!"

[Spirit Wood Technique]

[Grade: Silver]

[Skill 1: Vine Wood Entanglement (Summon a vine to trap a single target and cause 1.1 times the magic damage. Cooldown: 40 seconds)]

[Skill 2: Energy Absorption (Locked. Will only be unlocked after reaching a certain level of proficiency in Skill 1.)]

[Note: Mage class only.]

Zhou Han felt that it was a good control skill.

"This must be what she relied on to level up!"

When facing demonic beasts, it was easy to control them first and then deal the finishing blow.

However, he was a Swordsman and could not learn it.

"We'll see if Xiangning needs it. If not, we'll throw it into the shop."

After dealing with it, Zhou Han slowly walked to where Rhoda was.

"Yes? He's gone?"

Zhou Han was a little puzzled, but he remembered that the other party was a Nightbringer.

He probably had skills for concealment and escape.

He was definitely hiding now.

"Hmph! Under my Aura Sensing skill, you have nowhere to hide."

After Zhou Han used the [Aura Sensing] skill, he quickly received a response.

At his position, at two o'clock, there was an aura of panic and fear.

Zhou Han could not be bothered to waste his breath. He activated the Shadow Soul Spike.

"Ah…"

There was a grunt and then Rhoda's body fell out of a rock.

He had already died on the spot.

Zhou Han slowly walked over to see if anything good had dropped.

However, Zhou Han did not know his actions had already caused an uproar in Zone 123.

A system announcement appeared in all the player systems in Zone 123.

[System Announcement: Player Guo Mei has been killed by player Zhou Han in Zone 666.]

[System Announcement: Player Rhoda has been killed by player Zhou Han in Zone 666.]

The two consecutive announcements stunned the players in Zone 123.

"No way! Guo Mei and Rhoda are in the top five of the level rankings. They were killed just like that."

"And they were killed by players from another region? That's ridiculous!" 𝒷ℯ𝓭𝓷ℴ𝓋𝓮𝓵.𝒸ℴ𝓶

"Who is this Zhou Han? His strength is too terrifying! He killed two people in a row. I can't imagine it."

"Maybe Zhou Han used a scheme and surrounded them with their numbers! I don't believe anyone has the strength to fight the two of them alone."

"Yes, I think so too. Those brats from Zone 666 are too despicable. They're going too far by using such despicable methods!"

Most of the players were indignant and condemned Zhou Han. At the same time, they also hated Zone 666.

Although there were usually internal conflicts in the region, everyone was united against the outside world now, and their hearts were filled with anger.

"I'll hurry up and level up now. I'll reach Level 10 as soon as possible and get back at them."

"Alright, let's form a team. We'll reach Level 10 today and only kill players from Zone 666."

" Luo Badao, is Brother Badao around? Come out and say something. Are you going to sit back and watch Zone 666 bully us like this?"

"That's right, Brother Badao, you have to seek justice for us. Zhou Han, who killed this dog, is bullying us in Zone 123?"

This group of players clamored in the chat area, all of them wanting to kill Zhou Han.

Luo Badao was undoubtedly the first in Zone 123. His S-rank talent doubled all his attributes.

Now that he had reached Level 18, he was far ahead.

With his benevolent style, he became famous in just a few days.

The players called him warm-hearted and heroic.

At this moment, Luo Badao was also leveling up in the Valley of the Undead. He looked righteous.

Of course, he also heard the system announcement.

Seeing the message on the public chat, he frowned slightly in displeasure.

He wasn't stupid. He definitely didn't want to stand up for this.

After all, he did not know what was going on with Zhou Han and how many people there were.

His usual sense of loyalty was just an act. He was just doing it for benefits.

However, everyone had tagged him on the public chat, so he couldn't pretend not to know.

At this moment, he had to stand up and say something. Otherwise, his reputation would be ruined.

"Everyone, don't be agitated. I've seen your information. This Zhou Han is simply arrogant to dare to touch someone from our zone. Don't worry, I'll definitely get back at him for you, but there's nothing we can do now. We can't confirm his coordinates at all."

Luo Badao sent the message. It was obvious that he was stalling.

After all, without coordinates, he would not be able to find his opponent, and he would not attack.

"Wow! Brother Badao is out. You must kill Zhou Han!"

"That's right. We, Zone 123, can't suffer such humiliation."

"Brother Badao, you're so domineering. We're all under your command!"

It was a good plan, but he saw the next message.

His expression changed and he clenched his fists.

"Don't worry about the coordinates, Brother Badao. Look at what this is."

"Impressive. This thing can actually check the other party's coordinates."

"Awesome, Zhou Han has nowhere to escape now."

[Coordinates Tracking Card: Enter the target's zone number and name. You can lock onto the target's real-time coordinates within an hour. A one-time item that will disappear automatically after use.]

After Luo Badao finished reading, his eyes narrowed dangerously.

In this situation, he had no excuse to refuse. It seemed that he had to go.

Ads by Pubfuture

He didn't want to bother, but that didn't mean he was afraid.

No matter what, he was the boss of a zone and had an S-rank talent.

He could also easily kill Guo Mei and Rhoda.

Therefore, in his eyes, Zhou Han was only a little threatening and could still be dealt with.

This was the confidence of the number one in the zone, the determination of the strong to win.

Luo Badao: "Brother, what's your name? You did well!"

His face was cold as he typed in the message.

"Brother Badao, you don't have to thank me. This is what I should do. Take care of me in the future!"

"Of course. I'll take good care of you after this is settled!"

Luo Badao sneered. Killing intent flashed in his eyes as he continued typing.

Chapter 53: Bathing Here? How Relaxed

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Luo Badao: All experts above Level 10 in this area, gather with me. Coordinates: …

"Impressive. Brother Badao is domineering. He's about to attack! Zhou Han is in trouble!"

"Tyrant, I'll be there in ten minutes! I just dropped a Gold equipment that can be used!"

"We're coming. We'll go all out to suppress Zhou Han. If you provoke our Zone 123, you'll have to pay a heavy price."

"When Brother Badao goes out to fight, not a blade of grass will grow. Let's see who dares to be blind in the future."

At this moment, at the gathering point, Luo Badao stood with his hands behind his back, looking majestic.

His eyes were filled with vigor.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Very good, all the experts are here. Zhou Han, you won't be able to escape today."

Other than Luo Badao, six people had come. They were all above Level 10 and could freely enter and leave the Valley of the Undead.

They were already the strongest combat power in Zone 123.

They were all determined to make a move this time and smiled heartily.

"Let's go. It's only an hour. We have to hurry."

Luo Badao had already used the [Coordinates Tracking Card] to check Zhou Han's coordinates.

He immediately took the lead and walked out.

The men behind him were also murderous, following his pace.

At this moment, Zhou Han did not know that he had already been targeted.

He was still counting the spoils.

Two pieces of Silver equipment dropped from Rhoda, along with a card.

He was a little disappointed that the other party's concealment skill did not drop.

Zhou Han could not be bothered to look at the Silver equipment.

Instead, he began to check the card.

[Mystic Realm Pass]: With this pass, one can enter the mystic realm once. After clearing it, there is a 30% chance of Platinum equipment dropping.

After reading it, Zhou Han was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, it was a pass.

He could also enter the mystic realm and obtain equipment.

Good stuff!

Moreover, it was Platinum equipment.

One had to know that 90% of the players nowadays did not have Gold equipment, let alone Platinum equipment.

Although the probability was not high, he had enhanced it!

None of that mattered.

One enhancement.

The drop rate became 50%.

Two enhancements.

Three times.

As this kind of item did not differentiate between grades, he did not know the upper limit of enhancement.

He could only try one enhancement at a time.

[You have successfully enhanced it six times. You have reached the upper limit of this item.]

Through the system prompt, he was surprised to find that it could be enhanced six times.

Soon, the effect was displayed. After watching it, Zhou Han was overjoyed.

[Mystic Realm Pass +6: With this pass, a four-man team can enter the mystic realm once. After clearing it, there is a 90% chance of equipment at or above the Starlight-grade dropping.]

After six enhancements, the effect changed drastically.

First, it went from one person to four people entering the mystic realm.

When the time came, wouldn't the top-grade equipment dropped by Han Qinxue and her sister be his?

With a 90% drop rate now, unless he was the unluckiest person alive, he would not return empty-handed.

It could even drop equipment above the Starlight-grade.

After Platinum was Diamond, then Starlight. It was two levels higher.

Perhaps King-grade equipment would drop.

That would be awesome.

King-grade equipment could be enhanced nine times.

It went without saying how effective it was.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han was excited.

He had really found a treasure. It was too satisfying.

"System, where is the mystic realm?"

Zhou Han opened the map and did not find an entrance to the mystic realm.

That was why he asked in confusion.

"The mystic realm will open on the fifth day. Please wait patiently."

Good lord!

It began on the fifth day.

That would be the day after tomorrow.

No wonder the guy hadn't used this pass. It was still closed.

Only then could it drop after killing him.

Anyway, Zhou Han did not mind waiting two days.

He took out the Platinum equipment that had just dropped from his bag and looked at it.

He realized that it was accessory equipment with good attributes.

Zhou Han directly enhanced it six times. He had enough enhancement points now and did not have to worry about whether it was enough.

He clicked on the attributes and read them.

[Moonlight Earrings +6]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Attributes: Attack +1,500, Defense +300]

[Special Effect 1: Increases all attributes resistance by 30%.]

[Special Effect 2: Critical Hit Rate increased by 50%.]

[Special Effect 3: With gentle moonlight nourishment, all friendly units within 10 meters will recover 1% HP per second.]

[Description: Able to attack and defend at the same time. Can also be used as an accessory.]

"It's indeed an all-rounder. It has both attack, defense, and critical hits. It can even heal its teammates."

After looking at the attributes, Zhou Han sighed.

This was because only one accessory could be worn.

If he wanted to wear many accessories, he needed some special items to unlock them.

Zhou Han did not have one now.

He could only replace the True Spirit Ring.

After putting on the earring, the attributes were indeed good.

But Zhou Han feels a little uncomfortable.

"This is not suited for a man. It doesn't match my manly temperament at all."

Seeing the good attributes, he had no choice.

'I'll change it when I have something good!'

Zhou Han helplessly gave up on the resistance in his heart.

Everything was accounted for.

Zhou Han was prepared to pack the Gold equipment that was dropped for Han Qinxue.

"Hmm? Where are they? Where did they go?"

He had been fighting just now and counting the spoils, so he had not noticed their whereabouts.

Zhou Han walked over curiously and passed through the dense forest.

But in the clear river, he heard the cheerful voices of two women.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Han was a little speechless.

"I'm impressed by these women. Showering in such a place!"

He knew that the two women were in the Fire Cloud Mountain Range. They were sweating a lot and their bodies were sticky.

It was understandable that they wanted a shower.

But this was the Godfiend Continent!

Any danger could happen. It was really bold to bathe in the wilderness.

Fortunately, there were no demonic beasts in the river. No accidents happened.

However, there was a dense forest here. The location was hidden and could not be easily discovered.

Two beautiful women, swimming naked in the river.

The clear river water, and all the scenery, were visible.

"It's pleasing to the eye! I don't think I'm peeking! I'm looking openly."

Zhou Han convinced himself in his heart.

He admired the way the two women swam.

However, the good times did not last long. Zhou Han sat on a big tree.

He realized that seven people were coming in his direction.

All of them were aggressive and looked like they had ill intentions.

Ads by Pubfuture

It was as if they knew his location.

Zhou Han was a little puzzled, but he was not flustered.

"Hey, you two, hurry up. Someone's coming. Get dressed."

He did not want Han Xiangning and the others to be seen like this.

Therefore, he did not care about his exposed situation and directly urged.

"Ah! Zhou Han, when did you come?"

"Turn around. How can you get to shore like this?"

The sisters were immediately flustered. Their faces were flushed with embarrassment and anger.

They were actually seen by Zhou Han again.

They did not expect him to farm so many demonic beasts so quickly.

Chapter 54: Come Over and I'll Really Attack!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Now the seven of them would be coming over soon.

Zhou Han did not have time to tease them.

He immediately turned around.

Ha!

It wasn't the first time he'd seen it.

'Why are you so nervous?!'

Zhou Han did not mind.

Of course, he wouldn't say that. He had to make the necessary excuses.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Don't worry, I just came over. I was short-sighted when I was studying and didn't see anything!"

Zhou Han said with a calm smile.

Then he turned around.

His expression darkened as he went in the direction of the seven people.

He had no idea who those people were but he didn't care who they were now.

'As long as you dare to provoke me, don't blame me for being ruthless.'

"Are you serious? Is he nearsighted?" Han Qinxue asked curiously.

After all, Han Xiangning was from the same school as Zhou Han.

"Um, I think so! I'm not sure!"

Han Xiangning could only comfort her like this.

Otherwise, if she said that he was not short-sighted, it would be confirmed that he had seen her naked twice.

"Are you sure?"

"Oh, don't think too much about it. Get dressed!"

It was fine if Zhou Han saw it.

If anyone else saw it, it would be a loss.

Among the seven of them, Luo Badao was at the front. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑛𝘦𝑡

His face, however, was thoughtful.

What he was worried about was that Zhou Han had too many helpers.

"If the other party has more people later, I have to find a chance to get away."

Luo Badao kept calculating in his mind.

He wouldn't attack unless he was absolutely sure.

"Come over and take these coordinates. Go and see how many people Zhou Han has. If there's anything unusual, inform us immediately."

Luo Badao shouted at one of the lackeys.

This lackey had just broken through to Level 10 today.

He was the weakest among the seven of them, so it was relatively easy to bully him.

The other five agreed wholeheartedly.

What if he did not agree? Could it be that he had to go himself?

If the other party had more people and was discovered, would they have a chance of survival?

No one was stupid.

As for avenging Guo Mei and Rhoda and getting back face for Zone 123, that was just an excuse.

Their true goal was still Zhou Han's equipment and items.

If there were no benefits, who would risk their lives to avenge him?

"Brother Badao, I followed the coordinates and saw three people. A man and two women. That man should be Zhou Han."

In a moment, the scout returned and reported the situation.

"Three people? Did you look carefully?"

"I saw it clearly. I can't be wrong."

"That's great! It looks like they're fighting three against two. With their numbers advantage, they killed Rhoda and Guo Mei."

One of them voiced his guess.

"Brother Badao, what are we waiting for? Let's charge forward. Seven against three is an absolute advantage."

Another man began to stir, greed in his eyes.

Killing three people would mean more benefits.

"Let's get this over with now before the rest of Zone 666 comes over."

Luo Badao pondered for a moment and made the final decision.

He was most worried that Zhou Han would have too many helpers.

Now that he heard that there were only three of them, the last worries in his heart were eliminated.

Soon, the seven of them arrived in front of Zhou Han with a murderous aura.

"You're Zhou Han?"

Luo Badao narrowed his eyes and his voice was cold.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking for me? I don't think I provoked you!"

Zhou Han took a step back and pretended to be afraid.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Have you forgotten what you did? Haven't you thought of the consequences of killing someone from Zone 123?"

"How dare you touch someone from our District 123? You must be tired of living."

"I'll make you beg for death today!"

"Pain, struggle, and die!"

Seeing Zhou Han's terrified expression, the few of them became even more arrogant.

Her tone was even more aggressive, her face filled with a cruel smile.

"What—what do you want? Don't come over. I'm very powerful!"

Zhou Han pretended to be fierce but weak inside.

Others saw that he was obviously guilty.

"What's going on with Zhou Han?"

"Are they all here to deal with us?"

The sisters asked hurriedly.

They were also deceived by Zhou Han's acting skills.

There were seven people on the other side!

Moreover, they were all above Level 10. They were a little afraid.

If even Zhou Han could not deal with it, they definitely could not.

"Alright, step back. I'll handle it!" Zhou Han casually said softly.

"Oh, you're quite lucky with women. Such beautiful women."

"Damn, kill him. I'm so angry! He's monopolizing two beauties."

"Kill him and you'll not only get the treasure but the beauty."

"Go! I want that young beauty."

Luo Badao and the others' eyes lit up when they saw Han Qinxue and her sister.

They had just taken a shower and looked like blooming flowers.

With ill intentions in his eyes, he stared at Han Xiangning and the others fearlessly.

Thinking that he could have two women after killing Zhou Han, Luo Badao stopped probing and directly sentenced him to death.

"Zhou Han, today is the day you die! Die!"

"D-don't come any closer. If you come any closer, I'll really attack!"

"Hehe, show me! I'll make sure you can't escape today."

With Luo Badao at the lead, they all sneered ruthlessly.

The seven of them directly activated their skills.

"Flame Saber!"

"Water Elemental Wave!"

"Explosive Flame Fist!"

Some were long-range and some were close-range.

All of them rushed over, determined to kill Zhou Han in one strike.

"In the name of the Sword God, I command all swords in the world. Myriad Swords Return!"

Zhou Han did not even look at their skills.

He directly activated his ultimate move.

This was the first time he had used a big move.

He wanted to see how powerful it was.

As Zhou Han shouted, a shocking sword intent rushed out of his body.

It hovered behind him.

In an instant, it split into two, two into four, and kept splitting.

It was impossible to count how many sword shadows there were. They were coming together in a huge circle.

It was filled with a sword aura.

At this moment, Zhou Han's hair fluttered even though there was no wind.

It was as if the Sword God had descended. The fierce sword intent made people not dare to look at it directly.

"Slash!"

He softly spit out the word.

After receiving the order, the sword shadow kept flying forward.

In front of the ultimate sword intent, the Flame Saber and Water Essence Wave collapsed instantly, unable to resist.

"What? This? What a powerful aura…"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Damn, what skill is this? How can it be so powerful?"

"Impossible. Wasn't Zhou Han scared to death just now?"

"Is this really a player? I suspect this old monster has been cultivating for decades."

Everyone was filled with fear.

Sword intent filled the air.

That aura was wild and fierce.

It was simply invincible and unstoppable.

Just a glance made their scalps tingle.

They were so frightened that they lost their souls.

They were all stunned and at a loss.

Chapter 55: Instant Kill, Famous Saber Siming

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

They really did not expect Zhou Han to be so strong.

So he had been acting before.

It was ridiculous that his group was the real prey.

They were being played.

Luo Badao saw that the situation was not good.

What was the point of thinking about how powerful the other party was?

His top priority was to get through the immediate crisis.

He immediately shouted and woke them up.

Ads by Pubfuture

"What are you waiting for? Are you waiting to die? Everyone, work together to block the sword aura."

"Give it your damn all, or everyone dies."

"Support, put shields on all of us. Hurry!"

"Matt, I don't believe we can't stop it with the seven of us."

Soon, these people hurriedly reacted.

All kinds of skills were thrown out.

Colorful elemental auras erupted.

They all used all their strength to resist the immense pressure brought by the Return of the Ten Thousand Swords.

If they couldn't stop it, they would die.

"Can you stop it? You're overestimating yourself."

A cold smile flashed across Zhou Han's eyes.

Since they dared to provoke him, they would all be buried here!

Sword shadows filled the sky and bombarded them.

'You can block the first wave. Can you block the second and third?'

The endless sword shadows made one despair.

As expected of the Sword Soul's ultimate move.

It was that domineering, that wild.

The scene of the Myriad Swords Return was very shocking and handsome.

Sure enough, waves of sword shadows appeared.

It drowned them out.

Screams and grunts came one after another.

"It's just a pity that I have to use Myriad Swords Return to kill these trash. It's really a disgrace to this skill."

Zhou Han shook his head and sighed.

At that time, he only wanted to test the power of this big move and did not think too much about it.

The dust settled and six bodies appeared on the ground.

"Hmm?"

'No!'

'Where's the other guy?'

Zhou Han was a little surprised that the other party did not die under the violent sword aura attack.

It seemed that he had definitely obtained life-saving equipment.

Resurrection or Death Immunity Equipment.

"Zhou Han, be careful above your head!"

"Get out of the way!"

While Zhou Han was thinking, Han Qinxue and her sister screamed.

Luo Badao was currently above Zhou Han.

Wild attacks swept in.

"Do you really think I'm stupid? Die!"

"Fierce Tiger Style!"

He held a large knife in his hand that emitted a red aura as he slashed down.

It was shockingly powerful, like a tiger pouncing on its prey.

"Hmph! Sneak attack? Is that all your strength?"

"Wind Thunder Dance! Let's see how you can attack me!"

Zhou Han directly used the Wind Thunder Dance skill.

A violent whirlwind blew past.

The huge wind stopped Luo Badao from falling.

His speed dropped 90%.

At this moment, he was frozen in midair.

He could only fall slowly.

"What—what skill is this?"

Luo Badao's expression changed drastically. He had wanted to use his fatal move.

In the end, he encountered such a situation.

It was extremely difficult to move.

He seemed to be in slow motion.

"Why, do you have so many powerful skills?"

Luo Badao questioned loudly.

He had an S-rank talent and was undoubtedly the first in Zone 123.

But he had never seen these powerful skills before.

"You want to know? Unfortunately, I won't tell you. Die!"

Zhou Han's face was filled with coldness, and his voice was bone-chilling.

Without another word, he slashed.

"No, I can't accept this! I'm ranked first in Zone 123. I—"

Blood sprayed and the sound stopped.

Luo Badao's body fell to the ground.

At the same time, announcements came continuously from the regional announcement of Zone 123.

[System Announcement: Player Luo Badao has been killed by player Zhou Han in Zone 666.]

[System Announcement: Player Ling Tian has been killed by player Zhou Han in Zone 666.]

[System Announcement: Player Ye Liangchen has been killed by player Zhou Han in Zone 666.]

Seven notifications sounded in the minds of all the players in Zone 123.

And the interval between the seven voices was very short.

This meant that these seven people had died almost at the same time.

In an instant, they were all dumbfounded.

Who was Zhou Han?

'That's bloody fierce!'

"Is there a bug in the system? How can Zhou Han be so powerful? Killing seven people in a row is impossible."

"How scary! Even Brother Badao was killed. The entire team was wiped out."

"He's like a god of death! We've really hit a brick wall this time. In the future, if we see people from Zone 666, we should take a detour to avoid meeting Zhou Han."

"I'm the opposite of you. When the time comes, I'll go to Zhou Han immediately."

"This time, the combat power of our zone has greatly decreased. Everyone above Level 10 has died. Haha, I'll be the new king in the future. I really have to thank Zhou Han."

If Zhou Han knew that someone was thanking him in Zone 123, who knew how he would feel?

"How is it? Do you think he's too handsome? You're stunned."

Seeing that the sisters were still dumbfounded, Zhou Han hooked his head at them and teased.

"Yes, he's too handsome. I've never seen anyone so handsome."

"Yes, your big move has countless sword shadows covering the sky. It's simply handsome."

Both sisters sighed.

Seeing the effect of the Myriad Swords Return was much stronger than the movie special effects he had seen previously. It was very shocking.

Zhou Han's smiling face immediately collapsed.

'So they're praising my big move!'

'I thought you were praising me for being handsome!'

He shook his head, speechless.

Next, of course, was the exciting moment.

He counted the spoils.

[You have obtained Gold-grade Shadow War Boots.]

[You have obtained a Silver-grade Mithril Belt.]

[You have obtained a Silver-grade Purple Flame Jade Pendant.]

"Is he really an expert from Zone 123? He's too shabby!"

Zhou Han searched for a long time.

Other than a Gold-grade equipment, the rest were all Silver-grade.

It made him wonder who these guys were.

"I hope he has some good stuff on him! Otherwise, I won't get anything."

Zhou Han turned his gaze to Luo Badao's corpse.

After all, he was the leader of these people and had strength.

Moreover, it could withstand the damage of Myriad Swords Return.

This meant that there was something strange about the other party.

As expected, he took out two Gold equipment in a row.

However, Zhou Han was not interested in Gold-grade at all and directly threw it aside.

There were two items left.

A weapon and a card.

He looked at the weapon first.

It was a large knife, shimmering silver-purple.

It was obvious that it was not an ordinary item. It had a mysterious power.

[You have obtained Famous Saber—Siming. Do you want to check the attributes?]

Zhou Han immediately chose to check.

[Famous Saber—Siming]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Attributes: +60 Attack, -5% Skill Cooldown]

[Special Effect: When receiving fatal damage, enter temporary invincibility and increase movement speed by 20% for 1 second.]

Chapter 56: Secondary Weapon Expansion Card, Establishing a Group

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After reading it, Zhou Han finally understood.

Why didn't Luo Badao die immediately?

The reason was the special effect of this weapon.

It was indeed very useful to be immune to fatal damage.

It made Zhou Han a little tempted.

What was even more exaggerated was that this was a Diamond weapon.

The effect of being able to enhance it seven times was definitely shocking.

The weapon was not powerful.

Ads by Pubfuture

However, its life-saving attributes were top-notch.

Now that Zhou Han did not lack attack power, he needed such a life-saving method.

Of course, the more life-saving methods there were, the better.

"You really are trash. You don't know how to use such a good thing."

"It's only in my hands that I can unleash my full power."

Zhou Han looked at Luo Badao's corpse and complained.

However, the Sword Soul class used swords.

If he used a saber weapon, there was no attack bonus.

His strength would definitely be greatly reduced.

It immediately made things difficult for Zhou Han.

Therefore, he did not enhance the famous saber for the time being.

He first asked if there was a solution.

"System, is there a way to equip both weapons?" Zhou Han asked.

After all, Zhou Han did not want to give up on this Famous Saber, Siming, which had a life-saving method.

Soon, the system gave a bunch of explanations.

Zhou Han's eyes lit up.

"I'm surprised there are so many plans."

Zhou Han only asked tentatively. He did not have much hope.

Now it seemed very hopeful.

As expected of the system, it was awesome.

Zhou Han eliminated them one by one and saw what he could do at this stage.

Only the first and second rules had a chance.

The rest was completely hopeless.

Activate the second class or use the Secondary Weapon Expansion Card.

Both of these things could be bought in the Blue Thunder City Shop.

Soon, Zhou Han opened the mall and searched for these two items.

Second Class Card: 1 million soul crystals.

Secondary Weapon Expansion Card: 300,000 gold coins.

After seeing the price, Zhou Han was shocked.

Why were they all so expensive?

Zhou Han had never heard of Soul Crystals.

Through consultation, he learned that it was something that would only drop after killing a King-grade Boss.

This was too far away. Zhou Han obviously had no choice.

His current strength was still not enough to fight a King-grade Boss.

As for the second condition: 300,000 gold coins, it could be fulfilled.

There were 30,000 gold coins in the package now. Still, a lot to go.

"For the sake of the Famous Saber Siming, it seems that I have to earn gold coins!"

Zhou Han was quickly thinking of a way to earn gold coins.

Clearly, it was too slow to rely on killing monsters alone.

It just so happened that he could get some missions or items like the Double Gold Coin Card.

"Zhou Han, what's wrong? You look so sad."

After Han Qinxue put all the Silver equipment on sale and went to the shop, she walked over and asked curiously.

"I'm short on gold coins now. I have to make money!"

"How much gold?"

"Three hundred thousand!"

"…"

Han Qinxue was a little speechless. 300,000 gold coins.

This was a little exaggerated.

After selling so much equipment today, it was only slightly more than 60,000 gold coins.

"By the way, put up the Gold equipment that dropped today!"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Also, I have a piece of Platinum-grade equipment, the Blood Massacre Blade. Put it in the shop and auction it directly."

Zhou Han handed all the equipment to Han Qinxue.

This Blood Massacre Blade had dropped from the Shadow Demon.

It had been in the package all this time and had almost forgotten.

If not for the fact that he was short of gold coins this time, Zhou Han would not have remembered that there was such a thing.

Anyway, whatever he could gather, he would.

The auction function was a new function after the shop was upgraded.

[Myriad Treasure Tower]

[Owner: Zhou Han]

[Manager: Han Qinxue]

[Transaction Amount: 60,900]

[Shop Level: Level 5]

[Visit: 17,845,000]

[Listed Goods: 32 Gold Equipment]

[Auction: Platinum-grade equipment, Blood Massacre Blade (No less than 3,000 gold coins)]

[Regional Ranking: 1]

[Acquisition Area: Unread Messages 99+]

Soon, Han Qinxue sent a message on the public chat.

The chat area caused a huge stir.

Han Qinxue: The Platinum-grade weapon, the Blood Massacre Blade, is being auctioned in the Myriad Treasure Tower. Everyone, come and participate. The price is public.

"Why is Han Qinxue managing Zhou Han's shop? Is there something going on between them?"

"I saw two beauties beside Zhou Han. Could one of them be Han Qinxue?" 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝙣𝙚𝙩

"That's possible. I'm really envious of the big shot! A drunk beauty is in charge of the world."

"I'm so envious."

"I don't want to say this, but your focus is very peculiar! Aren't you going to pay attention to the Platinum weapon?"

"Less than 3,000 gold coins will not do. I only have 300 gold coins in total. How can I afford it?"

"Impressive. This Blood Massacre Blade actually has a Life Leech effect. It's too powerful."

"The Platinum-grade weapon attributes are indeed awesome, but I don't have money. I can only watch."

It was mainly because they were too poor.

The auction of the Blood Massacre Blade did not arouse everyone's enthusiasm.

The auction ended a few minutes later.

Fortunately, it did not go unsold.

In the end, it was bought by a player called Gou Tuo for 3,200 gold coins.

Zhou Han still had some impression of him. He was a lucky guy.

He often got top-grade equipment.

"It's still not enough. It's too little."

Zhou Han shook his head and looked at the last card.

A faint golden light emanated from it.

"Don't tell me I got a Secondary Weapon Expansion Card!"

Zhou Han was looking forward to it.

Then, it turned out that Zhou Han was dreaming.

[Group Card: After using it, you can create a group and then be able to invite 10 players to join. The user's attack power must be greater than 5,000.]

"Hmm?"

"I can build a group?"

"That's quite interesting."

Zhou Han really did not expect such a prop to exist on the Godfiend Continent.

His attack power also exceeded 5,000, meeting the conditions.

Everyone could speak on the public chat.

However, there was no function to establish a group.

There was so much information that it was sometimes difficult to read.

He would miss some information.

If he used this [Group Card], everyone could exchange resources and communicate more easily.

Therefore, this thing was very useful.

Ads by Pubfuture

Clearly, the previous Luo Badao's attack power did not reach 5,000.

Therefore, it could not be used.

Zhou Han was lucky.

"Enhance it once!"

[Group Card +1: After using it, you can create a group and then be able to invite 20 players to join. The user's attack power must be greater than 3,000.]

After enhancing it, the number of people he could invite increased.

Zhou Han enhanced it again and again.

It stopped abruptly after six enhancements.

[Group Card +6: After using it, you can create a group. You can forcibly recruit 200 people. Each person has to pay 1,000 gold coins to the group leader, and they cannot voluntarily leave the group.]

"Damn, is it that domineering?"

Chapter 57: Teasing Mei Aoxue, South Koreans Enter the Group

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Forceful recruitment?

'Whether you agree or not, as long as the group leader calls your name, you have to come in.'

1,000 gold coins would be automatically deducted.

This was exciting and would earn him 200,000 gold coins.

Wouldn't the 300,000 gold coins from the [Secondary Weapon Expansion Card] come from here?

Thinking of this, Zhou Han used the [Group Card] without hesitation.

[You used a Group Card.]

[You have successfully created a group. Please name this group!]

Ads by Pubfuture

Damn! Another name!

"Let's call it the God Slaying Hall!"

Zhou Han, who had difficulty choosing a name, was very helpless. He casually chose a childish name.

[Naming successful. Group formed. Please check!]

Zhou Han clicked on it.

Data appeared on the virtual panel.

[God Slaying Hall]

[Group Level: Level 1]

[Group Leader: Zhou Han]

[Administrator: None]

[Number: 0/200]

[Function: To be activated (Can be activated after 100 members)]

[Note: The strength, level, and activity of the members will affect the group level.]

The higher the level of the group, the more functions would be unlocked.

On the right of the data was a dialog box similar to the chat group interface.

The list showed Zhou Han and marked his identity as the group leader.

"I have to try it first. See if it works."

Zhou Han was very short of gold coins now.

'Then I'm sorry. I have to cut a wave of leeks.'

"Who should I pull in first?"

His first thought was to pull Mei Aoxue in.

'Let's try pulling her in first.'

After all, she had extorted him previously.

No matter what, he had to make her lose 1,000 gold coins this time.

"Pull Mei Aoxue into the God Slaying Hall!"

[You received 1,000 gold coins.]

[Player Mei Aoxue has successfully joined the God Slaying Hall.]

At this moment, Mei Aoxue was farming monsters.

Suddenly, a few notifications sounded in his mind.

First, it deducted 1,000 gold coins.

Then, she inexplicably entered the God Slaying Hall.

"God Slaying Hall? What a domineering name. Could it be a mysterious force?"

Immediately, she was delighted.

She thought it must have triggered some hidden plot.

After all, the Godfiend Continent was mysterious.

No matter what kind of opportunity she encountered, it was very normal.

Although 1,000 gold coins were inexplicably deducted, she wasn't angry at all.

"I wonder if I'll obtain some ancient and powerful inheritance!"

After all, not everyone dared to call themselves the God Slaying Hall.

She immediately felt a sense of longing.

After Zhou Han heard the system notification, he also sent a message.

Zhou Han: MeiAoxue, as a newcomer, show your photo!

The standard way to talk to someone new.

Mei Aoxue: ?

Zhou Han: I'll kick you out if you don't expose your photo.

After sending the message, Zhou Han suddenly had an idea.

Could he kick her out of the group first before pulling her in again?

This way, he could collect another 1,000 gold coins.

He could drain all of her gold coins.

"Kick Mei Aoxue out of the God Slaying Hall."

After thinking about it, he immediately implemented it.

[New member, unable to be kicked out of the group for 3 days.]

"I didn't expect this to fail. I can't exploit a loophole!"

Hearing the system notification, Zhou Han was a little disappointed.

Mei Aoxue: What's going on? Are you Zhou Han? Why am I here?

Her expression turned even colder. She had thought that she had obtained a fortuitous encounter.

She realized that it seemed to be Zhou Han's prank and immediately asked the question.

However, Zhou Han ignored it.

"It's working very well! Then keep pulling people in!"

Ads by Pubfuture

Mei Aoxue's participation proved that it was indeed a forced pull.

It was too troublesome to pull people in one by one.

"Pull all the top 200 in this area into the group."

[Player Han Xiangning has less than 1,000 gold coins. She cannot enter the group.]

[Player Han Qinxue has less than 1,000 gold coins. She cannot enter the group.]

[Player…]

[All players have pulled.]

[There are 103 players who have successfully joined the group.]

Zhou Han never expected everyone to be so poor.

Han Xiangning and Han Qinxue basically handed their gold coins to Zhou Han.

That was understandable.

The top 200 did not even have 1,000 gold coins.

He only pulled in 103 people.

They were really doing badly.

Soon, everyone who entered the group was stunned.

Ou Huang: What's going on? Zhou Han, come out and give everyone an explanation.

Gou Tuo: Zhou Han, you're too much! You scammed me for 1,000 gold coins.

Jia Feiqiu: Damn, I thought I had a fortuitous encounter. What the hell?

Lin Fan: Zhou Han, don't think that just because you're ranked first, you can bully us like this.

Liu Bo: I can't leave the group even if I want to. Is he kidnapping us?

Dai Mei: Zhou Han, I love you. I can finally be so close to you. You still love me, right?

Yang Mi: Zhou Han, I added you as a friend. Why did you reject me? I'm so sad.

Everyone: …

Soon, the fellows in the top ten of the rankings quarreled and expressed their dissatisfaction.

There were also a few fangirls who expressed their love crazily.

It made Zhou Han speechless.

'Sigh, I can only blame myself for being so outstanding. It's so annoying!'

"I'll kick these guys out in three days. It's too noisy."

The number of people was not full yet. Zhou Han had to continue pulling people in.

After all, 300,000 gold coins were still a lot.

He wanted to obtain the [Secondary Weapon Expansion Card] today.

"Pull the top 100 in Zone 1000 into the God Slaying Hall."

Zhou Han did not think too much about it.

He chose an area at random.

[Players in Zone 1000 have been added.]

[There are 95 players who have successfully joined the group.]

"It's finally done. It's all full."

He looked at the gold coins in the package: 252,000.

In that case, it was less than 50,000 gold coins short.

It was much easier to succeed now.

Park: Ah, please. I need an explanation for why I'm here.

Jeong: Zhou Han, get out here and spit out my 1,000 gold coins.

Lee: I'm going to make my Oppa beat you to death.

Kim: Just wait. We'll come over and occupy Zone 666 soon. Your territory will be ours.

Choi: My country is invincible. You provoked someone you shouldn't have.

How absurd!

"I can't believe it pulled the Koreans over."

Zhou Han never expected that Zone 1000 was for South Koreans.

Moreover, this group could automatically translate their words.

He felt disgusted when he saw some of their stupid words.

He could not be bothered to pick them up.

Wasn't it embarrassing to talk to such people?

Ou Huang: Damn, how unlucky. Why are there Koreans? I want to leave the group.

Lin Fan: They look like they're from Zone 1000. Can we cross servers now?

Liu Bo: What the hell? Zhou Han, hurry up and kick those Koreans.

Gou Tuo: Don't be so arrogant. This is Zone 666's territory.

Ads by Pubfuture

Seeing that everyone was united against the enemy, Zhou Han was filled with relief.

[Over 100 members of the God Slaying Hall have been detected.]

[Function panel, activated. Please check.]

"Hmm? I wonder what's in the function."

Zhou Han clicked on the function option in confusion.

Function 1: Silence, Block, Kick

Function 2: Buff Bonus

Function 3: Locked

Function 1 was a common function, so Zhou Han did not find it strange.

However, Function 2 appeared and had a buff effect.

Chapter 58: Plastic

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

He did not expect there to be a buff.

It was beyond Zhou Han's expectations.

Originally, Zhou Han only wanted to earn a wave of gold coins, so forget it.

He did not expect this group to have such a function.

It was a pleasant surprise.

"I wonder what buff will appear?"

Zhou Han opened it expectantly.

[Group Buff]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Group Level 1: Every member of the group will gain 2,000 HP, the administrator will gain 4,000 HP, and the group leader will gain 6,000 HP.]

[Group Level 2: Level not reached. Cannot be activated.]

[Note: The group owner has the right to block the buff of the group members; it can even be changed to a debuff. All attributes will be reduced by 30% in this state.]

'Impressive!'

This group was too awesome!

It directly increased each member's HP by 2,000 points.

One had to know that Zhou Han's [Heart Protecting Lotus +3] only provided 1,500 HP.

It only worked on single targets.

Zhou Han could not help but sigh at the power of [Group Card +6].

He sighed at how powerful an SSS-rank talent was.

The administrator is equivalent to obtaining a 2x increase, while the group leader could receive a three-fold increase.

After reaching Level 2, he could also activate new buffs.

"Looks like I have to run this group well in the future."

Seeing the buff, it also changed Zhou Han's initial thoughts.

He wanted to make this group constantly level up and become stronger.

When he saw the note, Zhou Han was a little shocked. 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐧𝗲𝘁

This group leader had too much authority! Not only could he deprive the group members of their buffs, but he could also give some members a debuff.

He was completely in control of someone else's life!

No one wanted to reduce all their attributes by 30%.

[The Lv1 buff has been detected. Do you want to activate it?]

"Activate!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Han immediately felt a white light surge into his body.

The feeling of his HP increasing by 6,000 was very satisfying.

At the same time, after the buff was activated, it also made a group announcement.

It was sent out from the God Slaying Hall.

[Group announcement: Level 1 buff has been activated. Everyone's HP has increased by 2,000.]

Jia Feiqiu: Damn, a white light surged into my body and directly increased my HP by 2,000 points.

Zhou Kai: Awesome, Big Boss Zhou Han, this 1,000 gold coins is worth it.

Wan Cheng: It's amazing. There's even a buff that can be added. I feel like I'm about to take off.

Zhou Zhuang: Brother Han is awesome. I have the same surname as you. I'll be your underling in the future. If there's anything, just say the word.

Everyone's attitude changed from the initial complaints

They were overjoyed now.

What did 2,000 HP mean?

Many of them had less than 2,000 HP.

How could they not be excited and grateful when they suddenly received such an enhancement?

'What's wrong with bootlicking Zhou Han?'

As long as he could obtain greater benefits, being a bootlicker was the way to go.

Kim: Zhou Han, at least you know your place. For the sake of the buff, I won't argue with you.

Park: You really know how powerful my country is. Now that you're afraid, you made such compensation.

Lee: Thanks for strengthening us. Sure enough, these fellows from Zone 666 are terrified of us.

Jeong: Hahaha… Soon, my country will sweep through every region.

After the people from Korea obtained the buff, all of them were even more arrogant and condescending.

Mei Aoxue: Not only do you guys not know how to thank us, but you also say such shameless things. How disgusting.

Jeong: How dare you talk to us like that? Watch your tone.

Liu Bo: Shut up! Shameless things are disgusting.

Choi: Kid, don't be ungrateful. When South Korea invades, we won't let you off.

Kim: You're all trash. My Oppa is the strongest.

Lee: Zone 666 belongs to our country. This group belongs to our country.

Soon, the people from Zone 666 were defeated.

In terms of eloquence, they could not beat these arrogant fellows.

The people of South Korea were all arrogant and despotic.

They kept spamming the group.

They praised their strength.

They still wanted to take control and usurp Zhou Han's God Slaying Hall.

"Hmph! Arrogant fellows, let me teach you a painful lesson."

Zhou Han really could not stand it anymore. This group of people was really too f*cking shameless.

He couldn't take it anymore.

"Block the buffs of all the group members in Zone 1000 and give them a debuff effect."

Zhou Han directly deprived them of their buff.

That was not all.

He said he would teach the other party a painful lesson.

Zhou Han would never go back on his word.

He directly applied a debuff effect that reduced all attributes by 30%.

[Changed successfully. The debuff effect has taken effect.]

As the system prompted, a black light shot into the South Koreans.

It wrapped around them like a demon from the abyss.

The energy in their bodies weakened visibly.

"Why is my energy gone? Why does my body feel weak all of a sudden? What's going on?"

"Damn it, not only am I losing HP, but I'm walking slower. What's going on?"

"I can't even defeat a Level 10 Magical Beast now. My combat strength has decreased too much. How can I survive?"

"Look, an announcement has appeared in the group. It's all Zhou Han's doing."

These people suddenly became extremely fragile and terrified.

One had to know that once a dangerous place like the Godfiend Continent became weak, it would only be eliminated.

Soon, they found the announcement in the group.

[Group announcement: Group leader Zhou Han has blocked the buff of all group members in Zone 1000.]

[The group leader, Zhou Han, has applied a debuff to all the group members in Zone 1000, reducing all their attributes by 30%.]

"How can we survive with all our attributes reduced by 30%?"

"It's over, it's all over. What should we do?"

"We'll beg him now. Maybe he'll soften up."

"Yes, the people of the Dragon Kingdom are the kindest. They love peace. They will definitely let us go."

The arrogant South Koreans suddenly remembered how good the Dragon Kingdom was.

They hurriedly sent a message to the group.

Kim: Dear Group Leader, we were wrong. You are kind-hearted. Forgive us!

Park: Group Leader, let us go. We're nothing. Please be magnanimous and don't lower yourself to our level.

Lee: Oppa, spare us. Let me serve you well.

Yoon: Oppa, I'm busty. I'll let you feel so good. I'll wait for you at this coordinate. Let's have a wild fight.

Zhou Han: Sorry, I'm not interested in your plastic bust.

Zhou Han: It's fine if you want to remove the debuff. Take out gold coins to exchange. I'll remove it for whoever's price is satisfactory.

Seeing Zhou Han's message, the South Koreans finally saw hope.

All of them wished they could sell their pants and turn them into gold coins.

They hoped that the price they offered would satisfy Zhou Han.

After all, gold coins could be earned again.

All their attributes had decreased.

That meant HP, Defense, Attack, Movement, Attack Speed, and other attributes would decrease.

This was really fatal.

If they did not remove it, they might even lose their lives.

Ads by Pubfuture

'So how can they not fight for their lives?'

"What, you're only offering a thousand gold coins? Are you trying to feed a beggar? Get lost."

"Yes, you're Kim? 6,000 gold coins are so-so."

"Park? I don't like your name. You have to pay more!"

"Pay up quickly. My time is precious."

These guys rushed to initiate a deal with Zhou Han.

All of them fought to give Zhou Han gold coins.

The arrogance from before was gone.

It was replaced by subservient flattery.

Chapter 59: Famous Saber Enhancement, Invincible for 5 Seconds

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han began to search crazily.

He was delighted to see the gold coins growing in the package.

"Hmph! I won't stop until I squeeze you dry."

Indeed, these South Korean fellows were too arrogant.

It made Zhou Han feel indignant.

He had to be ruthless when dealing with them.

If not for Zhou Han having a way to deal with them, how could they be so honest?

They would be unbearably arrogant.

Ads by Pubfuture

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so ruthless.

"Not bad. I got more than 285,000 gold coins so easily."

Under Zhou Han's crazy extortion, he gained a lot.

He immediately obtained nearly 300,000 gold coins.

Zhou Han felt a little comfortable.

This money was really easy to earn!

Half an hour ago, he was still worried about 300,000 gold coins!

There were 541,000 gold coins in the package now.

There were a total of 95 people, with an average of 3,000 gold coins per person.

"I didn't expect these guys from South Korea to be so rich." Zhou Han muttered to himself.

It made sense. After all, they were in the top 100 of Zone 1000.

Most of them still had some money.

However, they had already been robbed by Zhou Han until they could not even wear their pants.

Now there were enough gold coins.

Next, of course, was to unlock the secondary weapon.

He had to equip the Famous Saber.

After all, he had done so much.

It took so much time.

Wasn't it for this Famous Saber?

"Buy the Secondary Weapon Expansion Card."

Zhou Han chanted in his heart.

Soon, the system automatically opened the mall in Blue Thunder City and bought it.

[Do you want to buy it for 300,000 gold coins?]

After making sure.

[You spent 300,000 gold coins.]

[You have obtained a Secondary Weapon Expansion Card. Please check it!]

Zhou Han hurriedly opened it.

[Secondary Weapon Expansion Card]: A time-limited item. After using it, you can equip an additional secondary weapon for 30 days.

To continue using it after 30 days, he had to buy it again.

What a scam!

It was actually a time-limited item.

300,000 gold coins only had a 30-day use period.

'Ten thousand gold coins a day?'

As expected, the mall in Blue Thunder City was too dark!

"I wonder if I can get a permanent effect with my enhancement."

Zhou Han was still a little nervous. After all, the effect of enhancement was not fixed.

He could not guarantee it.

After enhancing it six times, the effect was displayed.

[Secondary Weapon Expansion Card +6: Time-limited item. After use, you can equip an additional secondary weapon and accessory within a 360-day period.]

To continue using it after 360 days, one must buy it again.

Sure enough, there was no permanent effect.

However, Zhou Han was not disappointed.

360 days was enough.

It was more than sufficient!

When that time came, he did not know how far he would grow.

Most exciting of all, there was an additional accessory spot to wear.

Accessories were divided into rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, medals, magic stones, and so on.

The rule of the Godfiend Continent was that one could only wear one item.

This was also why, after Zhou Han obtained the [Moonlight Earrings],

The reason why he changed out of the True Spirit Ring.

Now that he could wear an additional accessory, his combat strength would increase even more.

He was naturally overjoyed.

[You have successfully used the Secondary Weapon Expansion Card.]

Two white lights poured into Zhou Han's body.

From the virtual interface, he saw that there was an additional weapon slot and accessory slot.

Zhou Han immediately put on the [True Spirit Ring +5]

"Next, I'm going to enhance the Famous Saber seven times. The effect is really exciting!"

He took the [Famous Saber—Siming] out of his bag.

"Enhance it seven times."

[You have successfully enhanced it five times. Please check the attributes!]

[Famous Saber—Siming]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Attributes: +1,800 Attack, -20% Skill Cooldown]

[Special Effect 1: When receiving fatal damage, you will be invincible for 5 seconds and increase all attributes by 20%.]

[Special Effect 2: All friendly units within a ten-meter radius will enjoy 20% damage reduction.]

[Special Effect 3: When your health is below 50%, all attribute resistance will increase by 100%.]

"As expected of a powerful life-saving divine artifact. It's just so awesome."

First, his attack power was maxed out to 1,800 points.

There was still a -20% skill cooldown. In the future, all kinds of skills could be used without any gap.

[Special Effect 1: When receiving fatal damage, you will be invincible for 5 seconds.]

Don't underestimate five seconds.

A lot could be done in five seconds.

He could deal tons of damage easily.

He could completely use this invincible time to kill his opponent in despair.

Special Effect 2 was an aura skill that reduced friendly damage.

Special Effect 3 also increased all-attribute resistances.

Overall, the defense was stronger than offense.

The Godfiend Continent was filled with danger. The Famous Saber was definitely a life-saving divine artifact.

After reading it, Zhou Han equipped the Famous Saber without hesitation.

He immediately felt much more at ease. Safety was assured.

Qin Tian: Brother Han is awesome. These guys are instantly terrified. They're all like dogs, wagging their tails and begging for mercy.

Liu Bo: Brother Han is so domineering. He subdued them and didn't even dare to let out a fart.

Zhou Zhuang: With Brother Han around, my Zone 666 is invincible! As soon as Brother Han makes a move, I know it will be shocking!

Wang Shuai: Who can defeat the heroes in the world? Only Zhou Han!

The group members knelt down and licked Zhou Han's boots.

They wished they could use all the praise words they had learned.

However, Ou Huang, Gou Tuo, Jia Feiqiu, Mei Aoxue, Lin Fan, and the others were all in the top ten, so they didn't say much.

Although Zhou Han was powerful, they were also ambitious.

They felt that they could still fight for first place.

Therefore, they would definitely not agree to flatter Zhou Han at this time.

Seeing the information in the group, Zhou Han was successfully amused.

"All of you are bragging. So I'm already so awesome."

Then, Zhou Han also left the God Slaying Hall.

As for those people from South Korea, let's talk about it in three days!

To kick them out, or to keep them for more extortion, Zhou Han had yet to decide. He would take it one step at a time.

"Now that the experience bar is 96.7%, I'm almost at Level 25."

Due to the people from Zone 123 coming over to find trouble with Zhou Han,

Coupled with counting the spoils, it had been delayed until now.

Zhou Han no longer hesitated and continued to farm monsters.

A few minutes later, the sword flashed and harvested dozens of demonic beasts.

[You've successfully reached Level 25.]

[Server Announcement: Player Zhou Han has become the first player in this region to reach Level 25. Reward: Soul Crystal x1,000.]

"Level 25? That's too fast! It's only the third day today."

"I just checked. Soul crystals only drop after killing a King-grade Boss. I've never seen one before."

"After Level 25, he can awaken for the first time. Zhou Han will definitely be even more terrifying."

"Oh, so it's Big Boss Zhou Han! Don't be shocked."

This time the shock was not great.

After all, everyone in Zone 666 knew how awesome Zhou Han was.

Chapter 60: Awakening Mission, Sword God Hall

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"1,000 soul crystals? Not bad. The reward is quite generous."

Soul crystals were a higher-level currency.

It could be obtained by opening high-grade treasure chests, completing missions, and other methods.

It was also very versatile.

It could be exchanged for a Second Class Card, advanced equipment, and so on.

Everything needed soul crystals.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han opened his personal attribute panel.

[Zhou Han]

[Level: 25 (0.6%)]

[Class: Sword Soul (First Awakening)]

[Health: 8,750+14,000]

[Attack: 1,110+7,200]

[Defense: 640+800]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]

[Title: Famous +3 (Attack +500)]

[Weapon: Green Cloud Sword +6 (Life Leech, 6x Attack, Armor Penetration)]

[Secondary Weapon: Famous Saber – Siming +7 (Invincible, Damage Reduction, Resistance)]

[Ring: True Spirit Ring +5 (Armor Break, True Spirit, Resistance)]

[Earrings: Moonlight Earrings +6 (Critical Hit, Resistance, HP Recovery)]

[Equipment: Ghost Set +5]

[God Slaying Hall Buff: +6,000 HP]

After looking at the attributes, Zhou Han was a little shocked.

Before he knew it, he had become so strong.

With more than 20,000 HP and more than 8,300 attack power, he would soon be able to exceed 10,000.

With more than 1,400 defense, coupled with the attributes of his equipment and weapon, he could deal terrifying damage.

Just as he was carefully looking at the interface data, Zhou Han suddenly heard a notification.

[You have reached Level 25. Do you want to activate your first awakening?]

As expected, the main topic came.

Was he finally awakening?

Zhou Han was a little excited.

"Activate."

[Detected that your class is Sword Soul. Please go to the Sword God Hall in Blue Thunder City to receive the awakening mission.]

[The awakening mission cannot be completed in a team.]

"There's an awakening mission?"

Zhou Han was a little puzzled. He thought that he could directly awaken!

He hadn't expected to have to do a mission.

However, after thinking about it, he realized that many online games were designed like this, so he felt relieved.

Basically, he had to complete some prerequisite missions and defeat some enemies.

He had to prove that he had the strength and the right to awaken.

After thinking this through, Zhou Han smiled calmly.

"Let's go! We're heading back to the city. It's almost too dark. This place isn't safe."

Zhou Han put the Famous Saber and the Green Cloud Sword behind his back and said to the two women.

"Alright, you've reached Level 25 now. Are you going to awaken?"

"What's the class title after you awaken? Tell us now."

Han Xiangning and Han Qinxue asked curiously.

After all, the temptation of awakening was huge.

Even they, who did not like to fight, were interested.

"I don't know about that! There are a series of missions before awakening. Do you think it's that simple?"

Zhou Han stroked Han Xiangning's little head and said with a smile.

Back then, he had the same thoughts as Han Xiangning.

"Is it that troublesome?"

"Good things happen all the time. After a series of experiences, don't you think it's very interesting to finally awaken?"

"That does seem to be the case!"

"By the way, the awakening mission was completed alone. You can level up tomorrow!"

When they entered Blue Thunder City, Zhou Han suddenly remembered and said.

The current sisters were both wearing Zhou Han's enhanced equipment.

Now, be it facing the top ten players in the region or the Gold-grade dire beasts, they could easily crush them.

Therefore, Zhou Han was not worried.

"Okay, just focus on your awakening! We'll be careful."

Ads by Pubfuture

"Then we'll go back and wait for you. Come back early."

After saying that, Zhou Han parted ways with the two women.

He followed the map to the Sword God Hall.

Zhou Han could see from afar that there was a statue of a huge sword outside the hall.

It was about a hundred meters high and three or four meters wide.

A majestic aura washed over him.

Unknowingly, it emitted a sharp sword intent.

Those without strength could not approach the Sword God Hall at all.

"The Sword God Hall is indeed powerful!"

Just a statue had such an aura. The characters inside were definitely not ordinary.

Zhou Han calmed down and walked over.

"Hey, what are you doing? The Sword God Hall is ahead!"

A passerby hurriedly stopped Zhou Han and persuaded.

"I'm going to the Sword God Hall. What's the matter?" Zhou Han asked curiously.

"You can't enter without strength. Do you see the two Sword Guards at the door? I'm afraid you can't at your age."

"You're crazy…"

Zhou Han was a little speechless and could not be bothered with him.

Wasn't this kind of idiot only in online novels?

Why would one appear on the Godfiend Continent?

"Hey, hey, hey, what a stubborn brat! You'll definitely suffer later."

"This guy is so young. Does he think it's so easy to enter the Sword God Hall? This person looks unfamiliar. He's obviously a newbie."

"Come on, young people should learn their lesson. Let's get ready to watch a good show."

"See? This kid is going to be miserable later."

At some point, a few more onlookers appeared.

They all looked like they were watching a show to add a little fun to their ordinary lives.

"What brings you here, warrior?"

"This is the Sword God Hall. Outsiders are forbidden."

Two sword-wielding guards at the entrance of the hall blocked Zhou Han's path.

One of them asked sternly.

"I'm here to awaken. Can the two of you make an exception?" Zhou Han asked indifferently.

"Awaken? You're going to awaken at such a young age?"

The guard looked puzzled and clearly unconvinced.

"Absolutely. Do you want me to prove it?"

"That's good. Words are pointless alone. Let's see what you've got."

"If you can take three moves from us brothers, you pass. How about that?"

They looked confident as they crossed their swords and smiled.

This was the confidence of the Temple Sword Guard.

[Your awakening mission has been activated!]

[Awakening Mission 1 detected. Do you accept?]

"Accepted!"

[Awakening Mission 1: Successfully receive 3 strikes from the Temple Sword Guard.]

"Alright, I promise you!"

"But it doesn't take three moves. I only need one."

Zhou Han shook his head lightly and said indifferently.

This was because he could see the other party's attributes clearly.

[Temple Sword Guard]

[Level: 45]

[Life: 5,100]

[Attack: 2,600]

[Defense: 1,023]

[Weapon: Thousand Mass Sword]

[Equipment: Sword Spirit Set]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Accessory: Flawless Jade]

[Cultivation Technique: Proud Sword Technique]

Whether it was the health or attack power, they were all far inferior to him. What could they do to him in a fight?

Zhou Han's voice was not loud, but it was still heard by the crowd.

There was an immediate burst of laughter.

It was a mocking sound.

"I've never seen anyone as arrogant as him in my life. He's indeed young and impetuous. Heh, defeat them in one move?"

"This kid sure talks big. His opponent is the Temple Sword Guard. This is not something ordinary people can get."

"I remember a guy who provoked the Temple Sword Guard recklessly. He was beaten black and blue and lost two of his front teeth."

"It's a little tragic. This kid is probably about the same. I'm looking forward to the next scene. Haha…"

Chapter 61: Immaculate Sword Body, Destroying the Enemy in One Move

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Boy, you've successfully angered us!"

"Big talk. I'm going to teach you a lesson."

As Sword Guards, this was a great honor.

It was a symbol of strength and glory.

After many rounds of selection in Blue Thunder City, they finally got the spot.

Now, hearing a young man say that he wanted to beat them in one move, how could they not be angry?

Without greeting, they used his signature moves.

"Shadowless Proud Sword!"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Cloud Goose Break!"

Two violent skills swept over.

One was a red sword aura, and the other was the phantom of a Cloud Goose.

The air hummed with shock, and the floor was lifted by a powerful force.

They attacked Zhou Han at lightning speed.

"Oh my God, is this the strength of the Temple Sword Guards? The strongest force is impossible to resist."

"No wonder no one dares to be impudent in front of the Sword God Hall. This strength is not something ordinary people can deal with."

"That kid is probably regretting it now!"

"Exactly. Anyway, it's inevitable that I'll be taught a lesson."

The power brought by the sharp sword move surprised the surrounding crowd.

What kind of existence was the Sword God Hall?

That was the holy land in the hearts of countless sword cultivators and young talents in Blue Thunder City.

They all wanted to go and obtain the inheritance of the Sword God.

It was easier said than done!

Most people could not even pass the first round.

Therefore, this was also the reason why everyone did not think highly of Zhou Han.

Firstly, he was too young and his swordsmanship was definitely not good.

Moreover, they had not even gotten past the Sword Guards.

They definitely hoped that Zhou Han would also fail.

People were like that. They couldn't do it, and they certainly didn't want anyone else to.

"Good timing. The Temple Sword Guard is nothing much."

Zhou Han's narrowed eyes immediately widened.

Like a sleeping tiger, he woke up.

A vast aura floated out.

"Sword Aura Storm! Show me your true strength!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a monstrous sword intent emitted from Zhou Han's body.

It gathered into a whirlwind and charged forward.

He did not use Myriad Swords Return because he was afraid that he would kill these two Sword Guards instantly.

After all, he was still doing the awakening mission. Who knew if the mission would continue after killing them?

Therefore, he chose the skill Sword Aura Storm.

It was considered his second strongest skill at the moment.

It was enough to crush them.

Nothing went wrong.

Facing the powerful sword aura impact, the Shadowless Proud Sword and Cloud Goose Break were instantly broken and could not stop this attack at all.

"What? What a powerful sword intent! Is this really a young man? Even the Great Swordsmen of my race don't have such strength."

"Damn, it's so terrifying! The two moves of the Sword Guards are repelled."

"I misjudged him. This child is definitely not an ordinary person. Soon, his name will spread throughout Blue Thunder City. The younger generation will surpass us!"

"We actually mocked him just now. Now that I think about it, it's ridiculous."

Ads by Pubfuture

"Everyone, take your time! I've decided to work hard and go back to practice my swordsmanship. I'll take my leave first. Goodbye!"

"Huh? When did this dog become so diligent? It's a little strange."

"Hmph! He's the one who mocked the kid the most just now. Now that he sees that the situation isn't right, he's prepared to slip away."

The power of the Sword Aura Storm stunned the crowd.

They had only felt such a powerful sword intent from some old monsters.

Therefore, they all suspected Zhou Han's true age.

"Don't even think about defeating us like this. We are the Temple Sword Guards, taught by the Sword God."

"Don't get ahead of yourself, kid. Do you think you're in control? It's not that simple."

The two of them saw a faint smile on Zhou Han's face and felt that he was mocking them.

They immediately exploded. As honorable Sword Guards, their powerful pride would never allow such a thing.

They could not lose. Even if they lost, they could not be in such a sorry state.

Seeing the violent sword aura storm sweeping towards them, they shouted, "Sword God, please give us endless power, the Immaculate Sword Body!"

With two roars, two white lights poured into their bodies from the temple.

Their auras had clearly increased. It was as tenacious as a sword.

There was a protective shield on the surface of their bodies, allowing them to envelop them without any blind spots.

"Huh? That's? That's the Immaculate Sword Body created by the Sword God. Its defense is astonishing."

"I didn't expect this young man to force two Sword Guards to such an extent."

"This is going to be fun. I don't think he can break their defense."

"There's no need to watch. The outcome is obvious!"

"What? What…"

Just as these people were discussing, the Sword Aura Storm had already struck the Sword Guards.

The Immaculate Sword Body was cut by a large number of sword auras, sparks flying.

There was a sound like metal clashing.

Soon, the energy of the Sword Aura Storm was exhausted and dissipated into the air.

The Immaculate Sword Body was covered in spiderweb-like cracks.

The two Sword Guards were knocked back more than ten meters by a powerful force.

They all looked at Zhou Han in fear, their foreheads covered in sweat.

Their hearts were filled with waves.

They knew better than anyone how powerful the Immaculate Sword Body was.

That was a cultivation technique created by the Sword God. They were only lucky enough to learn such a heaven-defying cultivation technique after entering the Sword God Hall.

Now, they were almost defeated by the other party's move.

Although their strength could not unleash the true power of the Immaculate Sword Body, the effect of the powerful defense was also shocking.

They had lost. This was the first time they had lost so badly!

They had been guarding the door of the Sword God Hall for a few years.

They had encountered countless talented people who had challenged them, but all of them had failed.

There were even fewer who could defeat them.

Even if he won, the other party had won miserably. He had never been as relaxed as Zhou Han.

Ads by Pubfuture

They could sense that Zhou Han had yet to use half of his strength.

They could not imagine how deep the other party's realm was.

"You won. We admit defeat! As expected of a promising young man with limitless achievements. You have the potential to become an emperor!"

"Young Master, you're indeed talented! My sister is also a national beauty. I wonder if she's compatible with you?"

The two Sword Guards nodded and bowed as they walked over.

They didn't feel embarrassed at all.

After fighting him personally, they realized how strong the other party was.

To have such deep cultivation at such a young age, he would become even more heaven-defying in the future.

Therefore, for such an expert, there was a chance to deepen their relationship.

Of course they had to seize the opportunity without holding anything back.

Chapter 62: Entering the Sword God Hall

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han: "…"

What the hell?

Why had the two of them suddenly become like this?

They praised him, pulled strings, and even introduced a wife to him.

Zhou Han was a little speechless.

"Damn, am I seeing things? Why are the usually high and mighty Sword Guards so lowly now?"

"This is the first time I've seen the Sword Guards like this. I'm shocked."

"I can't believe my eyes. It's a little exaggerated!"

Ads by Pubfuture

"It's all because of that young man. I want to build a good relationship with him, but he definitely won't look at me!"

The onlookers also sighed.

Even the powerful Sword Guards were so humble and bowed.

It seemed that that young man was really going to soar into the sky.

"How is it? If you don't like my sister, my sister will do. Her breasts probably weigh a catty or two. You'll be satisfied with her figure!"

"Brother Han, come to our Nie family when you have time. Let's talk!"

The two Sword Guards were still talking non-stop.

They had to win Zhou Han over.

Just as Zhou Han could not take it anymore and was about to flare up, suddenly, a dignified voice came from inside the hall.

"Enough! You two, stand down!"

A middle-aged man walked out of the hall. His face was thin and sharp as a sword.

The title of [Sword King Nie Tianchen] appeared above his head.

After Zhou Han saw it, his pupils constricted.

This Sword King was a powerhouse with a monstrous sword intent hidden in his body.

As a Sword Soul, Zhou Han could keenly sense that.

"I'm sorry about these two good-for-nothings!"

With a smile, Nie Tianchen cupped his hands in apology.

He glanced at the two Sword Guards from the corner of his eye, his gaze sharp.

These two guys were really hard to explain. It was too embarrassing.

At the entrance of the Sword God Hall, they really did not care about the dignity of the Sword God Hall.

"It's fine. I'm here about the awakening."

Zhou Han smiled calmly to show that he did not mind and explained his intentions.

"Yes, not bad. You've successfully passed the first level now. Take this thing for now."

Nie Tianchen nodded and handed a token to Zhou Han.

[You have successfully completed the Awakening Mission 1 and obtained 10,000 gold coins as a reward.]

[As you have exceeded the requirements of the mission, you will be rewarded with 50,000 gold coins.]

He took the token and heard the notification that the mission had been completed.

'Exceeded?'

'The mission is to withstand three moves from the Sword Guards, but I defeated them in one move. This should be considered excessive!'

Zhou Han thought.

The additional 50,000 gold coins were quite good.

"What's this token for?"

Because the token was in a sealed state, Zhou Han could not check the specific information, so he asked.

"This is the key to enter the Visualization Hall and comprehend the aura of the Sword God."

"Visualization Hall?"

Zhou Han asked curiously. He had never heard of this before.

"Yes, the awakening is divided into five steps. The first step is that you have already passed. It's to test your basic combat strength."

Nie Tianchen was not impatient and explained patiently.

"The second step is to enter the Visualization Hall. You need to comprehend a cultivation technique within the stipulated time. It tests your comprehension."

Zhou Han nodded. He did not expect this awakening process to be so complicated.

It involved everything.

Ads by Pubfuture

"What about the third step?"

Zhou Han was waiting for Nie Tianchen to continue, but seeing that he was silent for a long time, so he asked.

"Wait until you pass the second step! If you can't even pass the second step, you definitely don't have to proceed to the third step."

Nie Tianchen spoke as he walked without stopping.

He walked in the direction of the Visualization Hall.

"It can still fail?"

"Of course, the cultivation technique you have comprehended is at least Gold-grade. If it's lower than Gold-grade, it will be judged to have failed."

"What happens if the second step fails?"

Zhou Han followed his footsteps and asked.

"Fail? After three days, you can try again. If you fail three times in a row, you will forever lose the right to awaken."

Would he lose his qualification to awaken permanently?

It was actually so strict.

Zhou Han's eyes narrowed. He did not know what the next test would be like.

"Why? Are you afraid of failing?"

As expected of the Sword King, he could feel his emotions fluctuating as he walked ahead.

His eyebrows rose as he spoke teasingly.

"Ah, how can that be! If I can't pass this small test, I don't have to live. I'll pass it directly."

Although Zhou Han was a little worried, he definitely couldn't expose it.

He could not be weak in terms of aura. He smiled calmly and spoke easily.

"Well, it's good to be confident! It seems you really don't understand anything. I don't want to discourage you. Feel it for yourself later!"

When talking to Zhou Han, Nie Tianchen suspected that he was a newbie.

He knew nothing about awakening.

Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have said 'pass it in one try'.

The Visualization Hall had the supreme will of the Sword God.

Not to mention whether he could comprehend the mysteries, just that fierce aura was too much for 70% of the participants.

Therefore, the possibility of getting through it in one go was too low.

The second time he came, he could slowly adapt to this sword intent.

By the third time, a small half of the people could completely adapt.

Only then would there be a certain chance of successfully clearing it.

"Is it really very difficult? From what he said, the failure rate of this awakening process is very high!"

Seeing Nie Tianchen's solemn expression, Zhou Han also became a little nervous.

As he spoke, Zhou Han followed Nie Tianchen into the hall.

As if entering a starry sky, he stood in midair and could walk normally.

Up, down, left, right, in every direction, it was endless.

"What a wonderful place! There are many teleportation channels over there?"

This was the first time Zhou Han had experienced such a feeling, which filled him with shock.

The Sword God Hall was indeed majestic!

"Of course. This Sword God Hall is not unique to Blue Thunder City. I'm just the guide of Blue Thunder City."

"There are also Sword God Halls in many other cities. After they enter, they will also be in this current space."

Nie Tianchen explained with a smile.

'In other cities?'

Zhou Han acutely noticed this.

Ads by Pubfuture

In other words, other than Zone 666, other areas could enter.

"We're here. Go in yourself! Remember to keep the token in your hand. This is related to your life."

Nie Tianchen's voice woke Zhou Han up from his thoughts.

Before they knew it, they had reached the entrance to the Visualization Hall.

"When you can't take it, inject energy into the token and it will automatically teleport you out."

"Take the first time as accumulating some experience. It's better to focus on adapting to the sword intent. Don't work too hard. Go in!"

Nie Tianchen solemnly explained and patted Zhou Han's shoulder encouragingly.

Anyway, it was difficult to gain anything from entering the visualization hall for the first time.

He didn't take it seriously.

[Awakening Mission 2 detected. Do you accept?]

Chapter 63: Sword God Phantom, Divine Seal Tablet

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At this moment, the mission notification sounded in his mind.

"Accepted!"

Zhou Han chanted in his heart.

[Mission accepted successfully.]

[Awakening Mission 2: In the Visualization Hall, successfully comprehend a cultivation technique above (including) the Gold-grade.]

Soon, the second step of the awakening mission appeared on the virtual interface.

After seeing Zhou Han enter, Nie Tianchen sat cross-legged in meditation.

He believed that Zhou Han would come out in a few minutes.

Ads by Pubfuture

After coming out, there were still some things to explain.

He didn't choose to leave.

As the awakening guide of the Swordsman class, the current Zhou Han was half his disciple.

He would still take good care of him.

"Yo! Old Nie, you brought someone new again? Looks like you brought a peerless genius this time! Haha…"

A strange voice sounded in Nie Tianchen's ear.

It was filled with mockery.

"Jiang Xiong, watch your words, or don't blame me for being rude!"

Nie Tianchen's expression was a little cold. He frowned and said coldly.

The person was called Jiang Xiong. He was burly and emitted a bloodthirsty aura.

He was the guide of Sakura City and had a lot of conflict with Nie Tianchen.

"Why? I congratulated you in advance for finding a peerless genius. Are you still going to lose your temper? Hehe…"

This was because it had been almost three months since a Swordsman had successfully awakened in Blue Thunder City.

At that time, the resources that Nie Tianchen would obtain would decrease, and he would face punishment from the higher-ups.

Now that Jiang Xiong said such words, it was no different from adding fuel to the fire and rubbing salt into his wound.

"Do you have a death wish?" 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘰𝘳𝘨

Nie Tianchen suddenly jumped up from the ground and walked towards Jiang Xiong with a murderous expression.

"You, you, don't attack! This is the Sword God Hall. Can you bear the consequences of attacking rashly?"

Jiang Xiong was immediately frightened by his aura and cowered. He hurriedly used the rules of the Sword God Hall.

Private battles were strictly forbidden in the Sword God Hall.

As expected, when Nie Tianchen heard this, his expression changed. In the end, he endured it.

"Are you so sure the new guy I'm leading this time isn't a real genius?"

"Tsk, do you think geniuses are cabbages? In a remote place like Blue Thunder City? If you're not convinced, how about we make a bet?"

A sinister glint flashed across Jiang Xiong's eyes. He was deliberately provoking the other party into making a bet. This was a scam!

"How do you want to bet? Tell me."

"Do you see the boy beside me? He also came over today to awaken. Let's bet who will awaken faster. How about that?"

As Jiang Xiong finished speaking.

"Nikawa Okane, come out!"

"Hai!"

The man who was called beside Jiang Xiong was wearing a short shirt and a wooden clog.

He stood forward, looking a little arrogant.

He was a player of the [Sakura City] in Zone 47 and had awakened an S-rank talent.

Originally, he did not level up so quickly, but he was lucky.

He triggered a hidden plot and encountered a powerful NPC.

He directly leveled up and immediately obtained a lot of experience.

That was why he could reach Level 25 on the third day and meet the requirements to awaken.

In Zone 47, he was the undisputed boss. That was why he had the right to be proud.

Nie Tianchen glanced at Nikawa Okane and felt that the other party's name was a little strange.

There was nothing else unusual about him.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Do you think I'm stupid? No bet. Go away!"

Nie Tianchen directly refused.

He was worried that if Zhou Han's comprehension failed, he would not be able to win in three days. He was not a fool.

"How about this? I'll use up my once-a-year privilege. If your disciple fails to comprehend it, he can comprehend the remaining two times in a row."

Jiang Xiong directly resolved Nie Tianchen's worries.

The intention was obvious. He wanted to take a gamble with him.

"Sure, I agree to bet with you. What do you want to bet? Tell me!"

Nie Tianchen thought for a moment and agreed.

Although Zhou Han might not be able to successfully comprehend it once or twice, it should be fine the third time.

He was not blind.

"I have a Dragon Blood Pill here. Take out your Mountain Sea Seal!"

Jiang Xiong hid the sinister smile in his eyes, looking like his scheme had succeeded.

Nie Tianchen had many Dharma treasures, and the Emperor-grade [Mountain Sea Seal] was only ranked third.

However, it was also extremely powerful. Jiang Xiong had been coveting it for a long time. This time, he could take the opportunity to obtain it.

It wasn't that he didn't want to bet on Nie Tianchen's best Dharma treasure. He was afraid that if he asked, Nie Tianchen would just refuse.

Then, Jiang Xiong would not even be able to obtain the Mountain Sea Seal.

So he did the next best thing.

Moreover, he very sincerely took out the Dragon Blood Pill that contained the power of dragon blood.

Although the content was small, the benefits after absorbing it were shocking.

"I won't lose anyway. It doesn't matter if I have to take it out."

The Dragon Blood Pill was very precious, but he was confident that he could not lose.

After the negotiation, their bet had taken effect.

With the higher-ups supervising, he was not afraid of reneging.

"Nikawa Okane, go in now. Remember the technique I told you."

Jiang Xiong nodded, looking confident.

"Hey! Don't worry, Lord Jiang. I'll definitely complete it beautifully."

Nikawa Okane's expression was calm. He was determined to win.

Seeing Nikawa Okane enter the visualization hall, the smile on Jiang Xiong's face couldn't be hidden anymore. He was very smug.

"Soon, your Mountain Sea Seal will be mine. I'm going to make you bleed."

"Huh, are you that confident? Don't embarrass yourself when the time comes!"

"You'll see…"

At this moment, Zhou Han had no idea that there was a bet about him outside.

The Visualization Hall was also in the void.

It was filled with a violent sword aura.

The air sizzled as it was cut.

As soon as Zhou Han stepped in, he could feel a vast aura.

His body instantly became many times heavier, and it was very difficult to move.

The sword aura also constantly cut Zhou Han's skin, but fortunately, his defense was strong and he was not injured.

Suddenly, a majestic figure appeared out of thin air. The sword aura in the hall immediately froze.

Soon, his ethereal and ancient voice came out.

"Junior who entered the Visualization Hall, I have already engraved a portion of my inheritance in the Divine Seal Tablet."

"By observing the inscriptions on it, you can obtain the inheritance."

"As for how much you can obtain, it's all up to your luck."

"Let me give you a hint. The closer you are to the Divine Seal Tablet, the better the comprehension effect."

With that, the phantom disappeared into thin air.

"This should be the phantom left behind by the Sword God. It was set up to guide newcomers to awaken."

Zhou Han guessed in his heart. At the same time, he noticed that there stood a huge stone monument that exuded an ancient and mysterious aura.

[Divine Seal Tablet: It is forged from the rocks of the Chaos Mountain and records part of the Sword God's inheritance.]

Chapter 64: Starlight-Grade Cultivation Technique, Visualization Token +10

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There were strange words and profound drawings on the Divine Seal Tablet.

There were other things that Zhou Han could not name.

It was as if everything was included.

"The closer I get, the better the effect of comprehension!"

Zhou Han remembered the hint of the phantom.

But the question now was, how to get closer?

First, it was the sword aura that filled the sky that kept attacking. Then, the gravity here seemed to be much higher than in the outside world.

The closer he got to the Divine Seal Tablet, the stronger the pressure.

Ads by Pubfuture

Therefore, it was not so easy to get close.

"No wonder Nie Tianchen said that very few newbies pass the first round."

This gravity alone was difficult to adapt to.

Once he adapted, it would be much easier to come in the second time.

After adapting to gravity, it would be a test of your comprehension.

If one's comprehension was too poor and they could not comprehend skills above the Gold-grade, it would be useless.

Then it was destined to have no chance of awakening.

"Hmm? This token is responding?"

The token in his hand emitted a faint golden light. It had obviously been activated.

From the moment Nie Tianchen handed the token to Zhou Han to the moment he entered the Visualization Hall, the token had always been in an activated state.

It was impossible for Zhou Han to check.

He checked it without hesitation.

[Visualization Token: The key to enter the Visualization Hall. After activation, it can provide the user with a weak perception in the Visualization Hall.]

"No wonder it flickered with golden light just now. It should be providing me with comprehension power to help me comprehend the Divine Seal Tablet."

This was a good thing. Zhou Han was delighted.

This thing should be able to be enhanced too!

As expected, after Zhou Han silently enhanced it in his heart, a white light flashed, indicating that the enhancement had succeeded.

Zhou Han continued to enhance it until it was +10.

Its attribute description also appeared on Zhou Han's virtual interface.

[Visualization Token +10: You can freely enter and exit all areas of the Sword God Hall. In the Visualization Hall, it can provide a vast amount of comprehension power to the owner.]

"After enhancing it ten times, the effect is indeed powerful!"

After seeing the description, Zhou Han was excited.

An item that could be enhanced ten times first showed how extraordinary it was.

The effect did not disappoint Zhou Han.

Firstly, he could freely enter and exit all the areas of the Sword God Hall. This alone had countless benefits.

One had to know that many places in the Sword God Hall required authority.

Now that Zhou Han had this token, he could do whatever he wanted.

For example, entering other city areas was equivalent to easily crossing servers.

There were also some exclusive mystic realms that ordinary middle-level personnel did not have the authority to enter.

Of course, Zhou Han did not know much about the Sword God Hall yet. There were still many unknown places that he had no way of knowing.

"Let's not think about this first. The most important thing now is to comprehend the Divine Seal Tablet."

Zhou Han hurriedly calmed down.

At this moment, he had the enhancement of a vast amount of perception.

However, Zhou Han did not know how strong it was.

"Then let's try the exact effect now!"

He did not stand where he was to comprehend it directly. Instead, he tried his best to close the distance between him and the Divine Seal Tablet.

Only then could he be sure.

He immediately mobilized all his strength and moved with difficulty.

As expected, the closer he was, the greater the pressure.

Twenty minutes later.

"Phew! This is about the limit. It's still too difficult to get closer with my current strength."

Zhou Han let out a long sigh, his forehead covered in sweat.

At this moment, he was still more than ten meters away from the Divine Seal Tablet.

Don't underestimate this ten-meter distance.

This short distance was now like a natural chasm in front of Zhou Han.

The pressure on him increased exponentially with every centimeter he moved forward.

Zhou Han could already feel the limits of his body.

If he forced his way forward, he might be severely injured or even reduced to ashes.

"Now, let me see how effective this massive amount of perception is!"

After resting for a few minutes, Zhou Han took out his best state.

He focused his attention on the Divine Seal Tablet.

Zhou Han seemed to see a world with a sea of stars.

A white-haired man stood under the waterfall. A violent torrent surged down from a height of ten thousand feet and continuously bombarded his body.

The man's expression did not change. He stood there without moving.

"Ah!"

Suddenly the man roared, and a violent aura rushed out of his body.

The water of the thousand-foot waterfall was actually shocked into flowing upstream.

"Hiss! So strong! This pure physical strength is too terrifying."

Seeing this scene, Zhou Han was also shocked. It turned out that he was still smug about his strength.

Now he was completely calm. He had yet to really come into contact with the experts of this world.

As the scene gradually blurred, the system notification sounded in Zhou Han's mind.

[You have comprehended the Starlight-grade cultivation technique, Immaculate Sword Body. Do you want to learn it?]

"Hmm?"

"Did I successfully sense the cultivation technique?"

"It should be the image of the white-haired man cultivating."

Hearing the system notification, Zhou Han was stunned. He had comprehended it in less than five minutes.

Immaculate Sword Body?

Zhou Han had heard of this cultivation technique before.

An hour ago, he had fought against it.

It was the cultivation technique used by the two Sword Guards.

Zhou Han did not expect it to be a Starlight-grade cultivation technique.

"No wonder the Sword Aura Storm can't break it. It's a Starlight-grade cultivation technique."

Zhou Han was also a little puzzled at that time. Now, he finally knew the reason.

This was the cultivation technique created by the Sword God. It was a defensive cultivation technique.

Those Sword Guards still had not learned the essence.

If they had cultivated to the level of the white-haired man, Zhou Han would probably have been insta-killed by the two Sword Guards.

"Is this the enhancement of a vast amount of comprehension? I comprehended a Starlight-grade cultivation technique right away."

Zhou Han felt a little comfortable. The second step of the awakening mission was completed.

He had been a little worried before, but now he heaved a sigh of relief.

Just as Zhou Han was about to agree to learn, a golden light that filled the sky completely erupted.

It enveloped Zhou Han.

Seconds later, it fused completely into his body.

Another system prompt sounded.

[A massive amount of comprehension power has been detected. The skill is being comprehended again. Please wait…]

What the hell?

Ads by Pubfuture

'What's going on?'

Zhou Han was also a little confused.

"Could it be that my comprehension just now was comprehended by myself without the enhancement of a vast amount of comprehension power?"

This was the only possibility.

The system prompt explained everything.

"I'm indeed a f*cking genius. I can comprehend a Starlight-grade cultivation technique without cheating. Such talent is enough to be arrogant."

Zhou Han was delighted and a little excited.

He had heard from Nie Tianchen that the cultivation techniques he comprehended were mostly Gold and Platinum-grade.

Being able to comprehend a Diamond-grade cultivation technique was simply rare. 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝙣𝙚𝙩

He had almost never heard of a Starlight-grade cultivation method being comprehended here.

Chapter 65: I'm the Real Genius

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han was still immersed in his excitement when the scene indeed changed.

Another different world appeared in front of him.

It was the same white-haired man in white with a sword in his hand. On the other side were countless Abyssal Demons.

All of them flickered with monstrous demonic flames.

Just by looking at the image, Zhou Han could feel the terrifying power within.

However, the white-haired man's gaze was calm.

With just one strike, the demons were wiped out.

"My sword breaks through the ages, my body becomes eternal, and my thoughts destroy demons."

Ads by Pubfuture

The incomparably arrogant voice deafened Zhou Han.

How elegant it was to say such domineering words.

This made Zhou Han a little envious. This was the highest realm of showing off!

He was still too far away.

"One day, I'm going to reach that level and act superior too."

[Skill comprehension successful.]

As the image faded, the system prompt came.

[You have comprehended the Divine-grade cultivation technique, Eternal Sword Body.]

Damn!

Divine-grade cultivation technique!

Eternal Sword Body!

'Is this what the Sword God meant by my body becoming eternal?'

Woah!

This was a direct takeoff!

"Learn!"

Zhou Han did not hesitate and said loudly.

[Learning a Divine-grade cultivation technique. Current learning progress: 1%.]

[Learning a Divine-grade cultivation technique. Current learning progress: 2%.]

After agreeing, the system gave a prompt. It did not show immediate learning success.

Instead, it increased the percentage bit by bit.

"Well, that's a little slow. It only adds one percentage point in two or three minutes."

It would probably take more than four hours to learn it.

After all, it was a Divine-grade cultivation technique, so it definitely took up a lot of memory.

This was a completed Divine-grade cultivation technique.

The Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll that Zhou Han had learned previously was only an incomplete copy. There was only one skill on it.

But good things happen all the time.

For Divine-grade cultivation techniques, Zhou Han felt that it was worth it to wait.

He immediately sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to rest.

Outside the Visualization Hall, Nie Tianchen and Jiang Xiong were waiting calmly.

The two of them had conflicts to begin with, so of course they were in no mood to chat.

"Hmm? Someone's coming out!"

A white light flashed. It was obvious that someone had come from the Visualization Hall.

They teleported out.

"Nikawa Okane?"

Nie Tianchen frowned.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Under the white light, he could see the figure coming out.

But from the sound of his walking, it was the unique sound of clogs.

Therefore, it was easy to determine the identity of the person.

"How is it? Any insights?"

Jiang Xiong also knew the identity of the person who came out. He hurriedly walked forward and asked concernedly.

"Master, I've disappointed you. I failed once."

Even someone as arrogant as him was shocked. 𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

He had thought that he would be able to pass in one go.

He did not expect it to fail.

He, who had always considered himself a genius, could not help but feel a little disappointed.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Hehe, relax. It's just one failure. Just try a second time. I believe you."

After Jiang Xiong heard this, he patted Nikawa Okane's shoulder and smiled encouragingly.

He didn't care. Wasn't it normal to fail the first time?

It would be abnormal if he successfully comprehended it the first time!

The Sword God Hall had stood on the continent for countless years, and there were many geniuses.

However, there were very few people who successfully comprehended it on their first try.

Even a genius would fall.

"Come, eat this pill and prepare for your second comprehension."

Jiang Xiong fished out a high-grade Essence Recovery Pill from his bag and handed it to Nikawa Okane.

"Master, don't worry. I think I'll help you win the bet."

Determination flashed in Nikawa Okane's eyes, and confidence returned.

After taking the pill, he began to meditate.

He had suffered quite a bit of injury in the Visualization Hall.

However, after this pill fused into his body, his powerful recovery ability instantly worked.

Jiang Xiong went to find a good friend and borrowed a privilege opportunity.

This way, Nikawa Okane did not have to wait for three days. He could use his second opportunity to comprehend and directly enter the Visualization Hall.

However, under Nie Tianchen's calm face, there was still some worry.

"He hasn't come out after going in for so long. Is he in danger?"

After all, according to his previous progress, Zhou Han should be out soon.

But now it was too long.

Counting Nikawa Okane's break, until he entered the Visualization Hall again, Nie Tianchen still did not see Zhou Han.

"So? Are you afraid? I'm going to make sure you lose this time."

Jiang Xiong also realized that something was wrong and said provocatively.

"Hmph! Don't get cocky before everything's settled."

Nie Tianchen immediately retorted, but his tone was not as fierce as before. It was obvious that he was lacking confidence.

"Hehe, take a look at your Mountain Sea Seal now, because you'll lose it soon."

A cold smile flashed across Jiang Xiong's face. He was already certain of victory.

It was not uncommon to die in the visualization hall.

Therefore, he could boldly guess that even if Zhou Han was not dead, he was most likely in a desperate situation.

He immediately gloated.

[Learning a Divine-grade cultivation technique. Current learning progress: 51%.]

At this moment, he was only halfway through his learning.

The wait was long, but not dull.

Because he was chatting with the sisters now. It was fun to tease them.

Han Xiangning: Zhou Han, it's so late. Why aren't you back yet?

Zhou Han: Why? We haven't confirmed our relationship yet, but you're already controlling me!

Han Xiangning: Annoying. Be serious. Tell me quickly.

Zhou Han: I can say that. You can say that you love me first.

Han Xiangning was speechless.

Han Qinxue: Zhou Han, it's dangerous tonight. Come back early.

Zhou Han: Did you miss me? We've only been apart for a few hours.

Han Qinxue: Yes, I miss you a little.

Zhou Han was speechless.

Zhou Han kept chatting with the two women. Then, he looked at the news in the God Slaying Hall.

Time passed quickly and it was not boring.

On the other side, Nikawa Okane's veins were visible and his skin was beaded with blood.

Ads by Pubfuture

He used all his strength to resist the pressure in the Visualization Hall.

"Okane, you can do it! You're the strongest prodigy. You can't lose!"

Nikawa Okane kept encouraging himself.

As long as he won the bet for Jiang Xiong this time, the other party would definitely nurture him with all his might.

At that time, it would be difficult for him not to take off.

Thinking of this, Okane was suddenly filled with energy.

After holding on bitterly for half an hour, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Wow, a Platinum-grade cultivation technique!"

"I've finally successfully comprehended a Platinum-grade cultivation technique. I've succeeded. Hahaha!"

"I see. I'm indeed a genius. I comprehended a Platinum-grade cultivation technique on my second try."

Chapter 66: Sky Dust Tyrant Blood, 50% Damage Reflection

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Nikawa Okane was ecstatic. He had heard of it.

Most people could only get a Gold-grade cultivation technique.

However, he could comprehend a higher-level Platinum-grade cultivation technique.

This was enough to prove his strength.

"Master will be very happy. I can obtain a lot of benefits."

With that in mind, he teleported out eagerly.

"Hmm? Someone's coming out. It should be Zhou Han this time."

Nie Tianchen was delighted and hurriedly got up to rush over.

But when he heard the clogs, his expression darkened.

His heart plummeted.

"Okane, how was it? Did it work?" Jiang Xiong asked anxiously.

He had some confidence in Nikawa Okane's talent.

The second try was basically guaranteed to succeed.

"Master, I didn't disappoint you! I succeeded!"

Nikawa Okane smiled calmly.

"Oh? What grade of cultivation technique is it?"

"I'm sorry that I only comprehended a Platinum-grade cultivation technique. I'm sorry for disappointing you, Master!"

Nikawa Okane immediately spoke in a humble-bragging manner.

However, there was no shame in his eyes.

"Good, very good, Platinum-grade. You've really made me proud."

Jiang Xiong was overjoyed when he heard this.

This meant that although the other party's aptitude was not top-notch, it was still first-rate.

He was still worth nurturing.

"How is Nie Tianchen? Are you panicking now?"

Jiang Xiong naturally wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity to mock him.

"Forgive me for being blunt, but Zhou Han should have died in the visualization hall."

Nikawa Okane joined them, speaking calmly.

The gloating in his eyes could not be concealed.

He had experienced the horror in the Visualization Hall.

That's why he said it.

Even he could not last long, not to mention others.

Nie Tianchen's face darkened. He wanted to retort, but he realized that he did not have the confidence.

He was beginning to wonder.

It had been more than three hours since Zhou Han entered.

This was indeed too long.

"What do you think? Why don't we apply to the higher-ups now and go in to check on the situation?"

The Visualization Hall could only allow unawakened people to enter. If there was an emergency, the higher-ups had to apply.

Only after obtaining permission could he enter.

"Let's wait and see! Half an hour. If they don't come out in half an hour, we'll apply!"

Nie Tianchen had no choice. He couldn't keep waiting like this and give the final time limit.

"Alright, it doesn't matter if you wait another half an hour. I'll make you admit defeat!"

The smile on Jiang Xiong's face became even smugger.

It was only half an hour. The final victory was still his.

As time passed, Nie Tianchen felt very tortured.

[Learning a Divine-grade cultivation technique. Current learning progress: 99%.] 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎

'Phew! Is it finally over?'

[You have successfully learned a Divine-grade cultivation technique. Please check it.]

The system's voice was exceptionally pleasant.

Zhou Han immediately checked.

[Eternal Sword Body]

[Grade: Divine]

[Description: A Body Tempering Technique that is an advanced version of the Immaculate Sword Body. When cultivated to the extreme, the body can be eternal and break through the sky.]

[Skill 1: Sky Dust Tyrant Blood (Activate all the blood energy in your body. For 5 seconds, you will be in the Overlord Body state and have 90% damage reduction.)]

[Skill 2: Soul Devouring Hand (Locked. Will only be unlocked after reaching a certain level of proficiency in Skill 1.)]

[Skill 3: Locked]

After Zhou Han finished reading, he was stunned!

As expected of a Divine-grade skill, it did not make him wait for four hours in vain.

[Sky Dust Tyrant Blood] not only had the Overlord Body effect but also reduced damage by 90%.

This was equivalent to five seconds of invincibility.

Zhou Han did not hesitate to enhance it ten times.

Divine-grade cultivation techniques could be enhanced more times.

However, Zhou Han's enhancement points were not enough.

For now, he would enhance it ten times!

[Sky Dust Tyrant Blood +10: Unleash all the blood energy in your body. For 10 minutes, you will be in the Overlord Body state, gain 90% damage reduction, and reflect 50% of the target's damage (damage decreases with distance, the lowest is 30%).]

Awesome!

This was damage reduction and reflection.

There was no conflict too.

For example, an enemy's skill damage was 100 points. Then, as long as he used this skill to attack Zhou Han, he himself would take 30 to 50 damage.

If the other party was an Assassin or Archer, the kind with high attack and low HP, as long as they dared to attack Zhou Han, the feeling would definitely be good.

"I wonder if I can comprehend the second cultivation technique!"

Zhou Han immediately thought of something and checked the Divine Seal Tablet.

[Detected that you have met the conditions for Awakening Mission 2. Please teleport out immediately. Otherwise, bear the consequences.]

Suddenly, a system warning sounded in his mind.

Zhou Han hurriedly retracted his thoughts since the system had said so.

As for the consequences, Zhou Han did not dare to try it easily.

Seeing that he could not find a loophole, there was no point in staying here.

Zhou Han directly activated the [Visualization Token] and teleported out.

When Zhou Han teleported out, the phantom in the dark appeared again.

As if conscious, he looked in the direction Zhou Han left thoughtfully.

"Not bad, junior. You actually obtained my true teachings!"

"This is the first time in ten thousand years."

"Interesting. I look forward to meeting you. I hope you don't disappoint me."

With that, the phantom disappeared again.

"The time is up. Nie Tianchen, are you still not giving up? Zhou Han is already dead. Your Mountain Sea Seal is mine."

"Senior, give up! Zhou Han's aptitude is still too poor. He can't compare to me. You've lost to my master."

Jiang Xiong and Nikawa Okane spoke one after another.

Nie Tianchen was speechless.

"Yes! I lost! Let's apply to check!"

As much as he hated to admit it, the truth was there.

More than four hours passed. Among the people who had awakened in the entire Sword God Hall, there had never been such a long time.

Usually, after entering and not coming out for two hours, he was basically dead.

This was not something Nie Tianchen could say casually.

It was analyzed through big data.

"Alright, collect Zhou Han's corpse!"

Jiang Xiong suppressed his laughter and pretended to be solemn as he patted Nie Tianchen on the shoulder.

Suddenly, a white light shone and Zhou Han's figure appeared.

"Who said I was dead?"

Zhou Han's expression was a little ugly as he walked out of the white light.

He had no idea that there was a bet inside.

As soon as he came out, he heard someone say that he was dead.

This was completely not true.

"You—you actually got out alive?"

"How is that possible? No one has ever come out alive after staying in the Visualization Hall for more than two hours!"

"This doesn't make sense! How on earth did you do it?"

Jiang Xiong's face was filled with surprise, but then his expression turned ugly.

Zhou Han was not dead, which meant that he could not win the bet for the time being.

Chapter 67: Crystal Explosion, Elder Lin Takes Action

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Hahaha! Jiang Xiong, don't be happy too early. Don't be too smug before the dust settles."

Nie Tianchen hurriedly ran over with a smile.

He held Zhou Han's hand excitedly, his eyes burning.

Fortunately, he did not take the next step. Instead, he began to attack Jiang Xiong's arrogance.

"So what if he comes out alive? Who knows if he can comprehend the cultivation technique!"

Jiang Xiong naturally refused to admit defeat and retorted loudly.

"Zhou Han, it's good that you came out alive. Adjust yourself and try to enter the Visualization Hall a second time to successfully comprehend a cultivation technique above the Gold-grade!"

Nie Tianchen did not ask Zhou Han why he had been inside for so long.

Ads by Pubfuture

He told him to sit down, recover, and try to comprehend the second time.

He did not expect or think in that direction that Zhou Han could successfully comprehend it in one go.

After all, that kind of genius was too remote. He did not dare to hope that he would encounter one.

"A second time? I don't think so! I—"

Zhou Han was about to say it when he was interrupted by a discordant voice.

"Looks like you're afraid. You've been in there too long. You're traumatized now. You don't dare enter!"

Nikawa Okane had been generous to Zhou Han when he came out.

Then, he acutely noticed that Zhou Han was actually a player and not an NPC.

This displeased him. He had leveled up so quickly, but someone was faster than him.

It was a truth he could not accept.

Therefore, now that there was a chance to attack Zhou Han, he naturally would not let it go.

"Yes? Someone from the Sakura Kingdom?"

After hearing the voice, Zhou Han frowned.

When he saw the other party's attire, his eyes flashed cold.

Whether it was the other party's current mockery or some historical reason, Zhou Han felt very unhappy. If this wasn't the Sword God Hall, he would definitely kill the other party with a single strike.

"I've already successfully comprehended it. There's no need to enter anymore. I've successfully passed the second round of awakening."

Zhou Han ignored Nikawa Okane's provocation.

He spoke very flatly.

"What? What did you say? You passed?"

"Did I hear you correctly? Are you afraid and making excuses?"

Jiang Xiong and Nikawa Okane obviously did not believe him and spoke at once.

"Enough, the two of you. We'll know if he passed or not after the test. Why waste time here?"

Nie Tianchen was also a little shocked, but he still chose to believe Zhou Han.

Moreover, every awakened person had to undergo a test after successfully comprehending it. 𝓫𝓮𝒹𝓷ℴ𝓿ℯ𝓵.𝓬ℴ𝓶

It was not just about quality,

Instead, the tester called the shots.

"Let's go. I don't believe it!"

Jiang Xiong took the lead and headed towards the testing area.

The Visualization Hall was very close to the testing area. They arrived in a few steps.

"Yo, Old Nie, Old Jiang, what a coincidence. You brought the newcomers over?"

A middle-aged man was sitting in the testing area. He was an NPC in charge of testing.

The direct grudge between Nie Tianchen and Jiang Xiong was not a secret in the Sword God Hall.

That was why this person teased him like this. He was obviously waiting to watch a good show.

"Someone bragged that he passed on his first try at enlightenment." Jiang Xiong sneered.

"Hmm? There's such a thing? Looks like he's a peerless genius!"

"Tsk, that's the kid. Look at him. Does he look like a peerless genius?"

Jiang Xiong turned his gaze to Zhou Han, and the middle-aged man also looked over.

At this moment, Zhou Han's expression was calm. He held his sword with both hands and his aura was calm.

"Well, it's hard to say. I can't see through him!"

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man said such a thing!

After all, they were doing tests. Although there were professional instruments, their eyesight was also extraordinary.

Jiang Xiong's expression immediately darkened.

'Is this kid really something?'

"Come here first. Put your hand on this!"

The middle-aged man had a large crystal on his face. He pointed at Nikawa Okane and ordered.

[Spiritual Perception Crystal: Can sense the cultivation technique obtained in the Visualization Hall. It is worth 100,000 Soul Crystals.]

Flash!

There was a flash of gold and white.

"Platinum-grade cultivation technique, not bad. You passed!"

Nikawa Okane straightened his body at the news of his passage, a confident smile on his face.

"Zhou Han, it's your turn!"

Hearing the shout, Zhou Han did not hesitate to put his hand on it.

Crack!

Boom!

When he placed his hand on the crystal, Zhou Han felt the Sky Dust Tyrant Blood circulating automatically.

Then a huge amount of energy surged into the crystal.

The hard crystal exploded.

Zhou Han did not expect this outcome. He was prepared to hide his strength.

However, the Spiritual Perception Crystal did not give him a chance. Its power poured out.

"You won't make me compensate, right? This is worth 100,000 soul crystals."

He only had a total of 1,000 soul crystals on him now.

"What? What…"

"What the hell happened? Did the crystal explode?"

"This is the first time this has happened!"

"The Spiritual Perception Crystal can test a Starlight-grade cultivation technique. How can it explode so easily?"

"Could this kid's cultivation technique have surpassed the Starlight-grade? This is an unprecedented achievement!"

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

Was there a problem with the Spiritual Perception Crystal?

Otherwise, how could such a change have happened?

The middle-aged man in charge of the test looked at Zhou Han in surprise.

"This has to be reported to the higher-ups. This is not something I can resolve!"

His mind raced. In just a few seconds, he made a quick decision in his mind.

"Impossible. Zhou Han, you must have used a despicable method!"

"You can't surpass me."

Nikawa Okane was immediately anxious and started screaming.

If Zhou Han was really a peerless genius, wouldn't he become a huge joke?!

"This is unacceptable. I, Okane, can't be someone else's stepping stone."

"Zhou Han, tell me the truth. This is the Sword God Hall. Don't play tricks!"

"Don't you dare try to get away with it! Don't you dare!"

Jiang Xiong also jumped out and criticized, his tone aggressive.

"Enough! Jiang Xiong, you're getting more and more arrogant! We'll deduct a year's worth of resources from your salary."

A dignified voice came from behind with undeniable authority.

He looked at Jiang Xiong with endless anger.

Ads by Pubfuture

As soon as he got the report, he hurried over.

Those who could make the crystal explode most likely had some ability.

No matter what, he had to suppress Jiang Xiong first before it got out of hand.

If this Zhou Han was really a peerless genius, at least he would have a better impression of the Sword God Hall.

Therefore, he mercilessly suppressed Jiang Xiong.

"Elder Lin, I, I…"

Hearing this voice, Jiang Xiong trembled in fear and wanted to quibble.

Seeing the old man's stern gaze, he immediately cowered and did not dare to say anything.

"We'll talk about you later!"

Then, Elder Lin turned to look at Zhou Han and walked over.

Chapter 68: Mission Completed, Number One Prodigy

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Zhou Han, greet Elder Lin!"

Nie Tianchen hurriedly said, afraid that Zhou Han had done something wrong.

The higher-ups of the Sword God Hall were divided into nine elders who mainly dealt with internal affairs.

After that, there were the four big shots. They were Sword Shadow, Sword Emperor, Sword Demon, and Sword Venerable.

They lived in seclusion and rarely managed daily chores.

Elder Lin, who had come this time, was one of the nine elders and had great authority.

That was why Jiang Xiong lowered his head.

"No need! You're Zhou Han? You're indeed extraordinary!"

At this moment, the sternness in Elder Lin's eyes was gone. Instead, his face was filled with kindness.

"Elder, you flatter me!"

Zhou Han said neither servile nor overbearing.

"I've already heard about your test results. There are still some doubts."

"I brought the Shadowless Mirror this time. You don't mind testing it again, do you?"

Elder Lin took out a mirror-like thing and asked for Zhou Han's opinion.

It was mainly because he had not seen it with his own eyes, so he had to test it himself this time.

[Shadowless Mirror: Can sense the cultivation technique obtained in the Visualization Hall with a limit of Emperor-grade. Worth 500,000 soul crystals.]

Zhou Han looked at the mirror that was flickering with a ghostly light. Its attribute description was also displayed.

"Emperor-grade cultivation technique?"

Zhou Han frowned. He was a Divine-grade cultivation technique. If this was tested, wouldn't that destroy the Shadowless Mirror too?

This was something worth 500,000 soul crystals!

If it was damaged, Zhou Han would have ruined 600,000 soul crystals.

What if he had to pay up?

"Elder, why don't we forget about it? I'd better not!"

Zhou Han probed.

"Yes? What's wrong?"

Elder Lin's eyes narrowed. No expression could be seen as he asked.

"I—I—"

"Zhou Han, now you're afraid!"

"You must have used some underhanded method just now. You're afraid of exposing yourself!"

Just as Zhou Han was hesitating about how to say it, Nikawa Okane jumped out and seized the opportunity to scold Zhou Han.

"How dare you! Do you have the right to speak here?"

Elder Lin shouted, his eyes flickering with sword light.

At a glance, Nikawa Okane flew out.

He fell to the ground like a dead dog, his fate unknown.

"What a reckless guy. He doesn't know the rules at all. Elder Lin didn't even speak, but he dared to interrupt!"

"That was enough for him. I think he's still breathing."

"Rude juniors should be taught a lesson!"

"I've been annoyed with this guy for a long time. He looks like human waste!"

Due to Elder Lin's arrival, many people came to watch.

After seeing Nikawa Okane fly out, everyone immediately discussed it gloatingly.

'Damn! That's ridiculous!'

One look was so powerful that Zhou Han was also a little surprised.

"Can you tell me your reason now?" Elder Lin asked calmly.

"I'm afraid I'll damage the Shadowless Mirror!"

Zhou Han still told the truth.

"Hehe, don't worry. It's just 500,000 soul crystals. Even if it's broken, I won't ask you to compensate!"

Elder Lin was a little amused as if he could see Zhou Han's concerns.

If he could really damage the Shadowless Mirror, it would surpass an Emperor-grade cultivation technique.

That was a peerless genius that only appeared once in a hundred million years. He could not be happier. What were 500,000 soul crystals?

'Hehe, that's what I was waiting for!'

"Then I'm going to start!"

He saw Elder Lin nod. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Zhou Han held the Shadowless Mirror and shone it at himself.

A handsome face appeared in the mirror.

Just as Zhou Han was engrossed in his handsomeness…

Crack!

There was a crack and a crack appeared on the mirror.

Then the cracks spread quickly, more and more densely, finally, it shattered into countless pieces that scattered on the ground.

The scene was instantly silent. The sound of debris falling to the ground was clear.

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded. They were stunned for a long time before starting a heated discussion.

"Damn, even the Shadowless Mirror shattered. This young man is too terrifying!"

"To be able to comprehend a cultivation technique that surpasses the Emperor-grade is unprecedented! He's undoubtedly the number one prodigy."

"The other prodigies are probably crying because they're in the same era as him!"

"My Sword God Hall is about to rise up. Our past glory will definitely bloom again!"

"I have to pull some strings later. If I can befriend such a prodigy, there will definitely be many benefits in the future."

"Impressive. You know the ways of the world better. Then what should I give you?"

Everyone started with shock, praise, and finally talked about making friends.

Clearly, Zhou Han's performance had already convinced everyone.

"The test results are out. Zhou Han has successfully passed. His grade has exceeded the Emperor-grade!"

Elder Lin directly announced the result, surpassing the Emperor-grade.

It no longer mattered what grade it was. Besides, there were no tools to test it.

Elder Lin looked at Zhou Han with a burning gaze.

Sword God Hall was no longer at its peak. It had been a long time since any decent genius appeared.

This time, a peerless genius came.

It was definitely a morale boost.

"Perhaps the rise of the Sword God Hall will really fall on him!"

Elder Lin pondered.

As Elder Lin announced, the system notification also sounded in Zhou Han's mind at the right time.

[You have successfully completed Mission 2.]

[Reward: 1,000 Soul Crystals.]

[As you have exceeded the mission, you are rewarded with an additional 10,000 Soul Crystals.]

It was finally done.

The reward this time was very generous.

He directly obtained 10,000 soul crystals.

'I wonder what the third step of the awakening mission is?' Zhou Han thought.

"Zhou Han, you did very well. You greatly boosted the morale of my Sword God Hall."

"Today, on behalf of the Hall Master, I will bestow the title of number one prodigy on you."

As Elder Lin pointed with his finger, a golden light flew towards Zhou Han.

It was so fast and powerful that it shocked Zhou Han.

It was still there. He quickly felt the vastness and warmth of this energy.

Every part of the body was nourished, and strong strength surged in his blood.

The onlookers stood up and applauded.

Their eyes were filled with approval and excitement.

This was a big deal for the Sword God Hall!

As a member of the Sword God Hall, everyone had a strong sense of honor.

"The number one prodigy is fully deserving!"

"He turned into a dragon after a storm! He's about to take off."

"He's so awesome at such a young age. His future achievements are limitless!"

"I want to give him my daughter. Even as a concubine!"

"How tragic! I don't have a daughter. Why don't I give my wife to him? I wonder if he'll mind!"

[You have obtained a title: Number One Prodigy. Do you want to check the attributes?]

"Check!"

He wondered what the attributes of the Number One Prodigy title were.

Zhou Han could not wait to start reading.

Chapter 69: Emperor-Grade Title, Providence Plunder

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Soon, the attributes of the title appeared on the virtual interface.

[Number One Prodigy]

[Grade: Emperor]

[Effect 1: +5,000 HP, +500 Defense]

[Effect 2: When you become the target of a prodigy, all his attributes will decrease by 5%.]

[Effect 3: 10% chance of successfully plundering the providence of a prodigy. Cooldown: 3 days.]

[Description: Each player can only equip one title.]

[Description: Prodigy? I'm best at beating prodigies.]

Ads by Pubfuture

Impressive. What a domineering attribute.

If he wore this title, he would simply become the nemesis of prodigies!

As expected of the number one prodigy. An Emperor-grade title was too heaven-defying.

There was a 10% chance of snatching the other party's providence.

It was a little too low. He wondered what kind of effect it would have after enhancement. 𝒷𝓮𝒹𝓃ℴ𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝓬𝓸𝓂

Zhou Han was about to enhance it when he heard the system announcement.

[World Announcement: Player Zhou Han has successfully obtained the Emperor-grade title 'Number One Prodigy'. Reward: 10,000 soul crystals.]

He had gained another 10,000 soul crystals. How wonderful!

"Hmm? A world announcement?"

Zhou Han acutely noticed this term.

Previously, it was all regional announcements. It was just an announcement in Zone 666.

This time, it was a world announcement. That was a total of 1,000 zones.

All the players could see the announcement.

An Emperor-grade title was still shocking enough.

It shook the entire world.

"This title is domineering! He even dares to claim to be number one on the Godfiend Continent. It can be seen how awesome he is!"

"As expected of Brother Han, you gave us one huge shock after another. I'm numb."

"10,000 soul crystals. This reward is really too generous. I don't even have 10,000 gold coins now."

"I won't say anything. I'll still fight my Level 5 ordinary monsters. Sigh, after transmigrating to the other world, I'm still the lowest level."

Most of the players in Zone 666 supported Zhou Han.

However, it was different for the other regions.

On an old castle, the blond man, Johnson, had a pair of white wings behind it.

After hearing the world announcement, there was a cold smile in his eyes.

"F*ck! Zhou Han?"

"Ha! The number one prodigy? Are you worthy? I'm the number one prodigy!"

"Don't let me know what zone you're from. Or I, Johnson, won't let you off!"

The same scene played out in different areas.

The Three Buddhas Kingdom, the White Bear Kingdom, the Freedom Kingdom, and so on.

They were all very unconvinced!

Everyone thought that they were true geniuses.

What kind of person was Zhou Han?

He dared to claim first place?

They clamored on the public chat in their area.

After the zones combined, they would definitely teach Zhou Han a lesson.

Of course, he could not see this information.

Even if he saw it, he would be very happy.

After all, there was Providence Plunder, so he could test the specific effect.

"Enhance the title ten times."

Zhou Han did not hesitate and directly enhanced it.

[Number One Prodigy +10]

[Grade: Emperor]

[Effect 1: +30,000 HP, +4,000 Defense.]

[Effect 2: You can reduce all attributes of all prodigies within a 100-meter radius by 30%.]

[Effect 3: 50% chance of randomly plundering a prodigy's providence, equipment, talent, and so on. Can be used three times per day. Can only be used on one target each time. After succeeding, you cannot plunder that target again on the same day.]

[Description: Each player can only equip one title.]

[Description: Prodigy? Their stuff belongs to me.]

The enhanced attributes were also displayed.

With just one look, Zhou Han felt that it was abnormal.

Needless to say, the first effect added some basic attributes.

Effect 2 could reduce all the attributes of the prodigies by 30%, and there was a range of 100 meters.

He could also formulate a talent within a certain range and activate this debuff on it.

Next was Effect 3, which was also the most heaven-defying effect.

There was a 50% chance of successfully plundering. This probability was neither high nor low. It all depended on luck.

However, the cooldown had clearly decreased. He could plunder three times in a day.

Even if the probability was not high, the success rate of plundering three times in a row was still very high.

"Jiang Xiong, I already know about your bet with Nie Tianchen. Hand over the Dragon Blood Pill!" Elder Lin said calmly.

This move was very obvious.

Zhou Han displayed such powerful talent.

Of course, Jiang Xiong had no chance of winning. He was just ending the bet early.

He reluctantly took out the Dragon Blood Pill with a very ugly expression.

He had gone through painstaking means to obtain this.

If he had not thought that he would win the bet, he would never take this out.

Now, he had to give it to someone else. It made him very unwilling.

However, when he saw Elder Lin's sword-like gaze, what could he do if he was unwilling?

Of course, he didn't dare let out a fart.

"Hehe! I told you not to get ahead of yourself."

A delighted smile appeared on Nie Tianchen's face as he mocked.

He sighed in his heart. It was all thanks to Zhou Han for getting back at him!

It had been almost three months since he had brought out anyone who had awakened.

Now that Zhou Han had appeared, the higher-ups started to value him again.

"You, hmph! We'll see!"

Jiang Xiong, who was completely at a disadvantage, could not refute at all.

He flicked his sleeve and fled.

Nikawa Okane climbed to his feet. He was still alive.

After being taught a lesson by Elder Lin, he was like a dog with its tail between its legs.

He wanted to follow Jiang Xiong out.

"Get lost! You trash! You caused me to suffer heavy losses!"

Jiang Xiong had lost the [Dragon Blood Pill], and his heart was bleeding.

He was furious when he saw Nikawa Okane and immediately slapped.

Then he flicked his sleeve and left angrily.

When Zhou Han saw this, he wanted to laugh.

These two were really in cahoots.

"I wonder if this Nikawa Okane is considered a prodigy!"

"I'll try it on him first. Let's see the effect of Providence Plunder."

Zhou Han thought.

"Use Providence Plunder!"

[You used Providence Plunder on Nikawa Okane. Plunder failed.]

He did not expect the plunder to fail on the first try.

Zhou Han was a little worried that the other party was not a prodigy.

After all, he was just trash who had comprehended a Platinum-grade cultivation technique.

"Try again!"

[You used Providence Plunder on Nikkawa Okane. Plunder successful.]

'Hmm? It's done!'

[You have obtained 2,000 HP. Do you want to absorb it?]

"Absorb!"

[Absorbed successfully. Your HP has increased by 2,000 points.]

After the notification, a life aura surged into Zhou Han's body.

On the other side.

"Ah! That hurts! I feel like I've lost something important."

Nikawa Okane felt as if his life had been sucked out of him.

The intense pain made him wail.

He rolled on the ground in pain.

"Nani? Why is my basic HP only 100?"

After he checked his attributes, he was immediately shocked. This bit of HP could not even endure a hit from an ordinary wild monster!

"Baka! Wh-who did this?"

He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

Chapter 70: Dragon Emperor Bloodline, Evil Swordsman

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"System, will the other party recover after I plunder the attributes?"

Looking at Nikawa Okane's tragic appearance, Zhou Han asked curiously.

[After being plundered, he will permanently lose this attribute.]

[However, you can take the initiative to return the attributes to the other party.]

After hearing this, Zhou Han nodded. He understood.

Return it?

If he had snatched it with his strength, why should he return it?

"What's the situation?"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Jiang Xiong, drag your disciple out! It's annoying to watch!"

Elder Lin frowned, looking unhappy when he saw the crazy Nikawa Okane.

Therefore, he called Jiang Xiong, who had not gone far, over.

Jiang Xiong cursed his bad luck and dragged Nikawa Okane away.

Of course, this was just a sideshow.

Next, there was the awakening mission.

"Elder Lin, can you tell me about the third step of the awakening mission?"

Zhou Han went straight to the point.

"Step three is to test your ability to collect."

"It requires 100 obsidian, 50 purple agate, and 10 swordsman seals. They can all drop on a Platinum-grade demonic beast."

Elder Lin explained in detail.

[You accepted Awakening Mission 3.]

Just as Zhou Han was about to collect the materials, he heard Elder Lin's words again.

"You don't have to do that. It won't be difficult for you at all. It'll just be a waste of time."

"This includes the fourth step of the awakening mission. It tests your teamwork. I'll use my privileges and skip all of them for you."

Elder Lin stroked his white beard and said with a smile.

In his opinion, would a peerless genius like Zhou Han need teamwork?

There was no need. One person was equivalent to a team.

[You have completed the Awakening Mission 3. Reward: Soul Crystal x500.]

[You have completed the Awakening Mission 4. Reward: Soul Crystal x1,000.]

As Elder Lin finished speaking, the mission completion notification kept ringing in his mind.

"Thank you, Elder Lin!"

After Zhou Han heard this, he was delighted.

This saved him a lot of time!

As expected, peerless geniuses could do whatever they wanted.

"But you still have to complete the fifth step of the awakening mission yourself."

"Elder Lin, please enlighten me!" 𝗯𝗲𝐝𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐨𝗿𝗴

"Next, I want to increase the difficulty for you and see your true strength."

"But don't worry, the corresponding rewards will be more generous. Are you willing to accept?"

"Of course I'm willing. The strong keep challenging the difficult and breaking through."

Zhou Han raised his head and puffed out his chest, saying firmly.

"Good, ambitious! The mission is very simple. Kill a person and bring back his head."

Elder Lin's eyes were filled with admiration as he continued.

"He's known as the Evil Swordsman and is a traitor to our Sword God Hall. Now we know his hiding place."

[New mission, Awakening Mission 5, accept?]

"Elder, don't worry. Leave this matter to me. Now that I'm also a member of the Sword God Hall, everyone has the right to kill such a traitor. I'm duty-bound." Zhou Han said righteously.

[You successfully accepted Mission 5.]

Immediately after, the mission description was displayed.

[Awakening Mission 5]

[Description: Kill the traitor, the Evil Swordsman, and hand the head to Elder Lin.]

[Progress: In progress (3 days)]

[Location: Thunder Ruins (Coordinates: …)]

"Then I'll wait for your good news. But it's too late today. Tomorrow morning, you'll go straight into Thunder Ruins!"

Indeed, Zhou Han had already been delayed for a few hours.

It was almost ten in the evening.

At night in this world, even Elder Lin was a little afraid.

Therefore, he naturally would not let Zhou Han act at night.

When Zhou Han heard this, he nodded and bade farewell.

"Here, Zhou Han, take this!"

Ads by Pubfuture

At this moment, Nie Tianchen finally found a chance to speak.

He directly handed the Dragon Blood Pill to Zhou Han.

He had his reasons for doing so.

The first was to thank Zhou Han for helping him win.

He regained the attention and trust of the higher-ups.

Would he be afraid of not having resources in the future?

The second reason was that Zhou Han was so powerful now. He had to invest in him while he could.

It was also very worth it. Once it paid off, it would not be simple.

"Thank you. I'd be honored!"

The [Dragon Blood Pill] in front of him was bright red.

Just the energy emitted in the air was invigorating.

Of course, Zhou Han would not be modest. This pill was obviously not ordinary.

Moreover, the other party's friendly attitude was obvious. Wouldn't rejecting others be slapping their faces?

[You have obtained the Dragon Blood Pill. Do you want to check the attributes?]

"Check!"

[Dragon Blood Pill]

[Grade: King]

[Description: Contains an extremely weak dragon bloodline and is refined with high-grade spiritual herbs.]

[Effect: After consuming it, your constitution will increase by 1,000. There is a 0.0000001% chance of awakening a trace of True Dragon Bloodline.]

[Description: Each person can take three at most. Subsequent pills are ineffective.]

Constitution referred to the comprehensive attributes of physical strength and endurance.

It was a hidden attribute. The personal data panel did not show it.

The stronger your constitution, when facing the attacks of the enemy, you would not be sent flying or knocked down.

It was still very useful in battle.

"Huh! There's actually a chance of awakening the True Dragon bloodline!"

Zhou Han's eyes narrowed. What was a True Dragon?

He wasn't sure and had never seen it before.

But it was definitely a very awesome existence.

However, the probability was too low.

Zhou Han directly enhanced it nine times.

[Dragon Blood Pill +9]

[Grade: King]

[Description: Contains a weak dragon bloodline and is refined with high-grade spiritual herbs.]

[Effect: After consuming it, your constitution will increase by 5,000. There is a one in ten thousand chance of awakening the True Dragon Bloodline, one in a hundred million awakening the Dragon King Bloodline, and one in a trillion awakening the Dragon Emperor Bloodline.]

[Description: Each person can take three at most. Subsequent pills are ineffective.]

"Damn! There's actually a Dragon King and Dragon Emperor Bloodline. This is too awesome."

After enhancing it nine times, the probability was still so low.

However, there was still hope for a one-in-a-million chance.

Should he eat it now or wait until he was lucky?

Zhou Han was a little hesitant.

He did not believe he was that lucky!

"By the way, luck? Hasn't Ou Huang always been lucky?"

Zhou Han's eyes lit up as he had a bold idea.

"When the time comes, let's see if we can snatch his luck."

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was an idea.

It was indeed feasible.

Therefore, he gave up on taking it immediately.

He placed the [Dragon Blood Pill +9] into his spatial bag.

"Achoo! I'm too healthy to catch a cold. Who's scolding me behind my back?"

Ads by Pubfuture

Ou Huang was lying in bed, preparing to sleep.

But he sneezed a few times in a row, rubbed his nose, and muttered to himself in confusion.

"That must be it. These guys are definitely envious of my good luck. They're indignant! Hehe!"

A smug smile appeared on Ou Huang's face.

At this moment, Zhou Han was about to walk out of the Sword God Hall and return to Blue Thunder City.

But he was stopped by a woman.

A very beautiful woman.

However, at this moment, her eyes flickered with provocation.

Clearly, she had come with ill intentions.

Chapter 71: Bad Woman, Wan Yuhe

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The woman in front of him was beautiful but full of fierceness.

There was an overbearing and superior aura.

Her identity was clearly not ordinary.

"There's going to be a good show. The 'bad woman' is blocking the door. I'm afraid this man is going to suffer."

"Oh? What kind of grudge does he have? He actually wants to stop the other party."

"Look at her. She looks terrible. Someone must have provoked her."

"Someone from the Sword God Hall actually provoked a 'bad woman'. She must be a newbie who just entered."

The person was the daughter of the Sword Emperor—Wan Yuhe. Her status was incomparably noble.

Ads by Pubfuture

She had both strength and beauty.

However, she was unruly and hot-tempered. She would attack and hurt others at any time.

Most of the people in the Sword God Hall had been dealt with by her.

It made countless men love and hate it.

Although she looked like a fairy, everyone called her a 'bad woman' behind her back.

Some people who happened to pass by were frightened by this aura.

They didn't dare go out anymore. They hid and discussed.

"Do you see that man? He's Zhou Han!"

"Oh? Zhou Han? I haven't heard of him! What's so special about him?" 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝘰𝑟𝑔

"Yes. What's his background? Other than being handsome, he doesn't seem to be anything special."

Clearly, the news of Zhou Han's test today had not spread.

After all, it had only been less than an hour.

How could everyone know?

There were many people in the Sword God Hall, so many people did not know Zhou Han's name. It was normal.

"You don't know! The news is still lagging."

"Didn't he just obtain the title of number one prodigy?"

"How can someone like that not be awesome?"

"What? The number one prodigy? Damn! That's too fierce!"

"How f*cking awesome! He's handsome and talented. Why is the world so unfair!"

Someone revealed Zhou Han's identity and immediately exploded.

It caused an uproar among the crowd.

They were both envious and surprised.

"No wonder the 'bad woman' wants to find trouble with Zhou Han. I finally understand."

"What reason? Is it because Zhou Han is handsome?"

"Not really. The 'bad woman' has always been the most talented person in the Sword God Hall. Now that the number one prodigy has appeared and suppressed her, what will happen to you?"

"I'll be very happy. After all, Zhou Han is handsome and suave…"

"Be serious! Of course she's not convinced. She's here to teach Zhou Han a lesson and regain her pride."

"This is going to be lively. The battle between peerless geniuses will definitely be very exciting."

Zhou Han also heard some of the commotions.

Looking at the woman not far away with the title [Purple Jade Sword Maiden—Wan Yuhe] above her head,

Her expression was arrogant, her eyes sharp.

"I've become the number one prodigy. This woman is jealous. Looks like she wants to settle scores with me."

'Bad woman'. That was quite an appropriate title.

Zhou Han laughed in his heart.

However, after glancing at her, Zhou Han ignored her and walked straight to the door.

He did not trigger a mission or receive any reward.

He didn't bother to attack.

"Zhou Han, stop!"

"Why? Are you cowering? Is this the aura of your number one prodigy?"

"I don't think that's all!"

A fragrant wind blew. Wan Yuhe walked closer, her voice aggressive.

"Yes, you found out. You're so smart!"

After saying that, Zhou Han did not stop.

"What? You, you—"

Ads by Pubfuture

Wan Yuhe was obviously stunned by Zhou Han's response.

She prepared a lot of taunts but it was easily resolved by the other party.

She guessed that as the number one prodigy, Zhou Han must have his own pride.

If she provoked him, Zhou Han would fight her.

She could take this opportunity to teach him a lesson.

After suppressing the number one prodigy, how accomplished would it feel?

Unexpectedly, Zhou Han's reaction was so casual.

"You're not leaving!"

Seeing that Zhou Han was about to leave, Wan Yuhe hurriedly shouted.

"I told you not to leave! Didn't you hear me?"

Seeing that Zhou Han had no intention of stopping, Wan Yuhe's temper rose.

No man had ever dared to disobey her orders like this.

She unsheathed her sword and pointed it at Zhou Han, her eyes filled with endless anger.

"Hey, bad woman. Are you that reluctant to let me go?"

"You're not going to sleep at night. Are you thinking of a man?"

Since a battle could not be avoided, Zhou Han naturally would not be polite to her.

There was a teasing look on his face as he teased.

"Bad, bad woman? How dare you? You loose-lipped kid, I'll teach you a painful lesson today!"

This guy in front of her not only called her a bad woman but also teased her.

How could the proud her tolerate it?

At this moment, Wan Yuhe's face was red with anger, and her chest heaved violently.

"Sure! Bad woman, I'd like to see how bad you are. Haha…" Zhou Han said indifferently.

"Damn it! I'm going to rip your mouth off today!"

Hearing Zhou Han call her a 'bad woman', she finally couldn't take it anymore.

"Purple Jade Sword Technique, Purple Dragon Soul Severing Slash!"

"Kid, this is the price of provoking me. I'll make you cry!"

As Wan Yuhe's voice fell, the sword in her hand flickered with a rich purple light.

The purple light quickly gathered and formed a dragon head phantom.

It bit at Zhou Han at a speed that tore through the air.

As for the Sword God Hall prohibiting private battles, she was too angry to care.

She did not intend to kill but just wanted to teach Zhou Han a lesson.

"Hiss! This is the ultimate move that made the bad woman famous. I didn't expect its power to become even more terrifying. It's really getting serious!"

"Look at her now. She's so angry that she's only trembling! It's one thing for us to call her bad woman in private, but no one has ever dared to do it in front of her."

"I have to admit that Zhou Han is f*cking brave. He even dares to tease the bad woman."

"This is what we men want to do but don't dare to do!"

"Next, he'll have to bear the anger of the bad woman. I wonder if Zhou Han can hold on!"

Everyone expressed their admiration for Zhou Han's actions.

However, when he saw the dragon head that emitted terrifying power, they were worried for Zhou Han again.

[Accessory: Sword God Medal]

[Cultivation Technique: Purple Jade Sword Technique]

Zhou Han looked over and saw the attributes of Wan Yuhe.

Her attributes were indeed a little strong, and her weapon and equipment were all extraordinary.

There was also a King-grade set—Ancient Desolation Set.

Coupled with the Emperor-grade accessory, the Sword God Medal.

As expected of the daughter of the Sword Emperor, her equipment was indeed very luxurious.

They were a little envious when they saw Zhou Han.

But now was not the time to let their imagination run wild.

This was because the purple dragon head enveloped Zhou Han with great force.

Chapter 72: This Lady Is So Filial

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Sky Dust Tyrant Blood! Condense the power of the entire bloodline!"

Zhou Han did not hesitate to use a Divine-grade cultivation technique.

He mainly wanted to test its power.

As soon as he finished speaking, from the body, endless blood-red energy was stimulated, and it quickly wrapped around his body, forming a barrier of light.

A majestic force kept flowing on it.

Zhou Han's aura also changed.

Under the violent qi and blood, his eyes turned red.

Like an awakened demon god.

Ads by Pubfuture

Under everyone's surprised gazes, Zhou Han rushed forward and took the initiative to collide with the purple dragon head.

"What? Does he want to die? He wants to fight the Purple Dragon Soul Severing Slash with his body?"

"That huge dragon head contains a trace of the aura of a flood dragon. It's extremely fierce."

"Logically speaking, as the number one prodigy, Zhou Han won't be so rash. Could he have some other methods?"

"I'm afraid he's just for show! I've never seen Zhou Han's strength. I think he's quite good at picking up girls."

"I don't think so either. This is going to hurt him badly!"

Everyone was clearly frightened by Zhou Han's actions.

They were bewildered.

Such behavior was no different from courting death.

"Roar…"

The purple dragon head opened its mouth and swallowed it.

Zhou Han's expression did not change.

He was as calm as ever.

"Boom…"

There was a loud crash.

Clearly, the dragon head had hit Zhou Han's body.

The air hummed like water ripples.

Then, everyone saw that under this huge force, he did not fly out.

Not even falling, but his entire body did not move.

It gave them a moment of wonder.

It was the Overlord Body effect of the Sky Dust Tyrant Blood that helped.

With a 90% damage reduction, this kind of damage was nothing to Zhou Han.

"Look at the bad woman, why is she spitting blood? She's seriously injured!"

"No one attacked her. Why was she injured? It's strange!"

"Could it be Zhou Han? But Zhou Han didn't attack! Could it be the aura of a king? I heard that an expert who has cultivated it to the extreme can injure others invisibly with the aura emitted from their body."

"Hiss! It's too terrifying to think like that!"

"That seems to be the only explanation. As expected of the number one prodigy."

"It was supposed to be a close fight, but it turned out to be a one-sided crush."

The Sky Dust Tyrant Blood also had a 50% damage reflection effect.

Because the [Purple Dragon Soul Severing Slash] was powerful, even if the rebound damage was reduced by half, it was also terrifying enough.

In just one encounter, Wan Yuhe suffered the consequences.

She had been injured by her own cultivation technique.

Under such circumstances, this caused everyone to speculate.

After all, this was a Divine-grade cultivation technique.

They had never seen it before, and there was no concept of backlash in their minds.

Hearing their messy speculations, Zhou Han found it a little funny.

He was still far from the realm where he could kill with his aura.

"What—what kind of trick is that?"

Wan Yuhe's face was pale. It was unknown if she was frightened or seriously injured.

There was a hint of fear in her eyes as she asked uncertainly.

She did not make wild guesses like everyone else.

After all, at this realm, even her mother, the Sword Emperor, could not do it.

She was smart enough to know that Zhou Han must have some special methods.

"You want to know?"

"You bad woman, why should I tell you?"

A trace of mockery flashed across Zhou Han's eyes.

"You—"

"Okay, just wait!"

Wan Yuhe was a little exasperated.

She could not defeat Zhou Han or argue with him.

However, the other party was the number one prodigy.

She wanted to use her identity as the daughter of the Sword Emperor to bully him.

It didn't work either.

This was the first time she had felt so powerless.

What should she do?

She could only think of a way to get back at him later.

She had taken the initiative to provoke him and was taught a lesson.

If she stayed here now, she would only suffer more humiliation.

Having figured that out, she prepared to leave.

Before leaving, of course, she had to say something harsh.

"Hmph! I'll let you off today. I'll deal with you in a few days."

With that, Wan Yuhe turned to leave.

"Stop! Did I say that you can leave?"

Zhou Han's lazy voice was filled with dominance.

This was what Wan Yuhe had said to him before. Now, he returned it to her.

"Zhou Han, you're so domineering. You've tamed this bad woman."

"Awesome! She finally met a ruthless character. Look at her now. She's as timid as a cat."

"I'm extremely impressed. Zhou Han is really our role model!"

"Everyone, stand up and applaud the big shot."

Hearing Zhou Han's domineering words, everyone exploded.

Their eyes revealed envy.

To subdue such a thorny rose was everyone's dream.

"What do you want?"

"Let me tell you, don't go overboard. This is the Sword God Hall!"

Although she knew that Zhou Han would not act rashly, her aura was still a little weak.

"I don't want anything. I just want to borrow something from you!"

The other party had already taken the initiative to attack him.

Of course, Zhou Han had to collect some interest. Otherwise, wouldn't he be making a loss?

"Use Providence Plunder."

Anyway, there was still a chance to use it.

Whether it worked or not did not matter.

If he didn't use it today, the accumulated number wouldn't increase. The number of times per day would be reset.

After hearing Zhou Han's words, Wan Yuhe revealed a puzzled expression.

However, her expression changed drastically.

She felt a chill in her chest.

As if freed from some kind of restraint, the clothes inside her upper body disappeared inexplicably.

This made her blush, and she felt ashamed and afraid.

However, when she saw Zhou Han holding a piece of clothing, it was so familiar.

Wasn't that her undergarment?

She was instantly furious. She wanted to flare up, but she was afraid the others would find out.

[Plunder successful. You have obtained the Phoenix Feather Inner Robe.]

The system's voice sounded. Zhou Han was delighted.

Unexpectedly, he was lucky. He succeeded instantly.

"From the name, it should be a piece of equipment. Yes, it smells quite good."

Zhou Han sniffed it. It smelled like milk.

There was a phoenix tattooed on it. The fabric was very silky.

[Phoenix Feather Inner Robe: A piece of good quality innerwear.]

"F*ck! This is…"

Zhou Han had not noticed the meaning of the inner robe before.

He thought it was what the equipment was called.

However, when he saw the introduction, Zhou Han was shocked.

Ads by Pubfuture

It was actually that kind of clothing.

"This plundering is too mind-boggling! I have to use it carefully in the future."

What if he plundered a male prodigy one day?

What if he plundered the other's underpants, it was too disgusting to think about. If others found out, wouldn't his reputation be ruined?

"Zhou Han, I'm going to kill you!"

When Wan Yuhe saw it, Zhou Han took it and sniffed it again.

She couldn't take it anymore. She raised her sword and charged forward.

Without the restraints of her inner wear, her chest was in turmoil.

Zhou Han's eyes blurred upon seeing the bouncy shadows.

"This girl is so filial. She takes such good care of?Grandma1!"

Chapter 73: Plundering Ou Huang, Lightness Ring

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This was not small. From the looks of it, it was at least 36D.

"No, this is a misunderstanding! You have to listen to my excuses! I didn't mean for this to happen."

Seeing the other party coming, Zhou Han immediately felt that he was in the wrong and hurriedly said.

But how could Wan Yuhe listen?

She raised her sword and slashed wildly.

She was already seriously injured earlier.

This attack did not pose any threat to Zhou Han.

But no matter how much trouble she caused, the effect was definitely not good.

Ads by Pubfuture

He made up his mind and hugged Wan Yuhe.

"Can you stop fooling around? There are so many people watching!"

Hearing this, she woke up with a start and gradually calmed down.

She also realized the awkward situation now.

"If others misunderstand, my relationship with a bad woman like you, it will be bad for my reputation!"

After Zhou Han added, Wan Yuhe struggled again.

"My looks, talent, and family background are all top-notch. Why do you actually feel that you're making a loss?"

She was indignant, but this was not the time to think about such things.

She snatched her innerwear back.

Gritting her teeth, she ran off.

What had happened only happened a minute or two ago.

However, this short period of time shocked the surrounding crowd.

Although they did not say it explicitly, these fellow's eyes were very sharp.

They immediately discovered something.

Their eyes revealed smiles that all men knew.

"Brother Han, you're awesome. Teach me your ultimate move!"

"If I had Brother Han's technique, it would be awesome."

"Brother Han, no, Master, are you still taking in disciples? I'll give you 10,000 soul crystals every month."

"As expected of the number one prodigy. This skill is first-rate."

"Everyone, stand up. Goodbye, Brother Han!"

Everyone's eyes were burning as they looked at Zhou Han in admiration.

All of them wanted to learn from him and gave generous conditions.

"Unfortunately, I really don't know how to! Otherwise, why won't I take in some disciples and earn some soul crystals?"

Zhou Han thought in his heart and shook his head.

He walked out of the Sword God Hall.

It was already past ten o'clock at night.

The moon was bright and the stars were few. The crows flew south.

Few people appeared on the streets of Blue Thunder City anymore.

When he returned to the inn, Han Xiangning and her sister were already asleep.

Zhou Han had also been busy the entire day. He fell into bed and quickly fell asleep.

Perhaps because he was too tired, Zhou Han had already slept until ten in the morning.

The sisters had already gone out to level up. There was a breakfast of love on the table.

It warmed Zhou Han's heart.

[Server Announcement: This is the fourth day in the Godfiend Continent. 43,622 players have died in Zone 666. Remaining players: 56,378.]

"Hmm? Have so many people died? There are less than 60,000 players now."

"It's indeed quite cruel. Any accident can happen when farming monsters outside the city."

"I think we're about to merge. There are so few people left."

"It should be soon! The number of deaths in each zone is about the same."

Hearing the announcement, the comments section began to chat. 𝚋ed𝚗𝚘𝚟e𝚕.𝚗et

However, the overall mood was still very depressing.

After all, no one knew if they would be the next to suffer an accident.

When Zhou Han heard this announcement, he was also surprised.

He was now powerful enough so he had never sensed danger.

However, this data clearly showed that if other players wanted to survive, it was still a huge challenge.

Shaking his head, Zhou Han stopped thinking about this.

As he ate breakfast, he looked at the rankings.

[Level Ranking]

1. Zhou Han: Level 25 (1.6%)

2. Han Xiangning: Level 19 (16.9%)

Ads by Pubfuture

3. Han Qinxue: Level 19 (13.8%)

4. Ou Huang: Level 14 (21.3%)

5. Gou Tuo: Level 14 (16.2%)

6. Mei Aoxue: Level 13 (95.5%)

7. Jia Feiqiu: Level 13 (36.4%)

8. Lin Fan: Level 13 (23.3%)

Zhou Han was still far ahead and placed first.

As for Han Xiangning and Han Qinxue, with the buff of five times the experience, they distanced themselves from Ou Huang and the others. The level difference was almost five levels.

The other top ten rankings did not change much!

After breakfast, Zhou Han sorted out what he wanted to do today.

First: Go to the [Thunder Ruins] first and kill the Evil Swordsman to complete the awakening mission.

Second: Report to the Demon Slayer Division. After all, he passed the selection as the champion.

After entering the Demon Slayer Division, there must be a related mission or plot waiting for him.

Third: Today was already the fourth day after entering the Godfiend Continent. On the fifth day, the mystic realm would open.

Zhou Han had a Mystic Realm Pass +6. He was still short of a fourth teammate.

He decided to use this spot to exchange for resources.

After all, this was a mystic realm that could drop Starlight equipment or even King equipment.

It was able to sell for a high price, but he was afraid that the players could not afford it.

"When the time comes, let's see if we can find a rich NPC to sell this spot."

Zhou Han pondered.

Fourthly, he would use Providence Plunder on Ou Huang and see if he could obtain the other party's good luck.

This way, he could consume the [Dragon Blood Pill +9].

This could be done now.

Zhou Han did not hesitate and immediately took action.

"Plunder Ou Huang!"

[You used a Plunder opportunity. Plunder failed!]

Zhou Han was not discouraged by his first failure and continued to use it.

[You used a Plunder opportunity. Plunder failed!]

[You used a Plunder opportunity. Plunder failed!]

After three consecutive failures, Zhou Han was a little speechless.

It seemed that his luck today was a little bad.

"Could the success rate of Providence Plunder be related to distance?"

Zhou Han guessed in his heart.

However, the system did not give an answer to this.

"There's another possibility. Ou Huang's own luck might make the failure rate of plunder even higher."

Zhou Han deduced the reason for his failure.

If that was the case, it was a little difficult.

But what the situation was, the sample was too small to get an accurate result.

There were no more attempts now. There was no way to verify it today.

"Next time, let's plunder it in person and see how the success rate is!"

He could only wait a few days before taking the Dragon Blood Pill.

After saying that, Zhou Han did not feel depressed.

He opened a free clay pot.

[You have obtained the Lightness Ring. Do you want to check the attributes?]

He hadn't expected it to come out, but he didn't know what quality it was.

Zhou Han hurriedly checked.

[Lightness Ring]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Attributes: Attack +500, Agility +20]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Special Effect: In combat, your agility will increase by 20%, and your target's agility will decrease by 20%.]

[Description: Light as the wind and always by your side.]

"Damn! Not bad, not bad. It's actually Diamond-grade."

As expected, luck was conserved. Just now, he had failed three times in a row.

Now, a Diamond-grade accessory had dropped.

Zhou Han also successfully became a lucky guy for once.

His mood brightened.

"Enhance it seven times." Zhou Han said directly.

He was looking forward to the effect of the enhancement.

After all, this ring mainly raised agility.

Chapter 74: Mad Blood Mercenary Group, Fat Tiger

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

No one disliked higher agility!

Soon, the enhanced effect appeared on the virtual interface.

[Lightness Ring +7]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Attributes: Attack +2,000, Agility +80]

[Special Effect 1: Increases agility by 50% in combat and reduces the target's agility by 50%.]

[Special Effect 2: Increases critical chance by 20%.]

[Special Effect 3: 30% probability of ignoring armor.]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Description: Light as the wind and always by your side.]

The enhanced effect did not disappoint Zhou Han.

Attack increased by 2,000 points, and Agility increased by 80 points.

80 Agility was not to be underestimated.

Agility affected movement speed, attack speed, and casting speed.

Therefore, it was still very useful.

Special Effect 1 could reduce the target's agility. This was quite impressive.

Special Effect 2 increased critical chance.

Special Effect 3 could ignore armor, similar to the True Spirit Ring Finger, but with an additional 10% chance.

In short, this ring was the main output. Its defense was weaker.

But the output was still very good.

Zhou Han took off the True Spirit Ring and placed it in his spatial bag.

He changed into the [Lightness Ring +7].

As soon as he put it on, he felt like he was floating.

Perhaps it was an illusion, but he felt very relaxed.

"The effect should be even stronger now!"

Zhou Han thought excitedly.

However, there were many people in Blue Thunder City now.

He could not use it. He needed to find an empty place.

Therefore, he could only give up for the time being.

Without wasting too much time, Zhou Han went straight to the entrance of the Thunder Ruins.

In the northern region of Blue Thunder City.

[You are about to enter the Thunder Ruins. This is a high-risk area.]

[Do you want to spend 1,000 gold coins to check the relevant information?]

He was about to enter when the system beeped.

"Pay the gold and check!"

It was just 1,000 gold coins to obtain useful information.

Zhou Han naturally would not hesitate.

[Map details have been generated. Please check!]

Soon, intelligence information appeared densely.

[Thunder Ruins]

[Difficulty Rating: Diamond Five Stars]

[Wild Monster Combat Strength: Platinum-grade and above]

[Hidden Faction: Demonkin—White Bone Race]

[Drop: Demon Spirit Bracelet, Limitless Fist Set, Wind Speech Staff, Lava Set, and so on.]

[Description: A dark and silent forest filled with black fog. There are many powerful demonic beasts inside. There's also the Demonkin White Bone Race roaming around. It is recommended that teams above Level 60 enter.]

The difficulty of Diamond Five Stars meant that he at least had the strength to kill Diamond-grade demonic beasts.

"That's not difficult!"

Zhou Han could easily kill a Platinum-grade demonic beast previously.

Now, he had obtained an Emperor-grade title and a Divine-grade cultivation technique.

It was no problem to deal with the Diamond-grade.

"Hmm? Demonkin?"

"Descendants of the demons?"

When Zhou Han saw the hidden faction, his eyes narrowed.

The demons in this map were definitely much stronger than the Shadow Demon he had dealt with before.

As expected, the last step of the awakening mission was not that simple.

"Looks like the test Elder Lin set for me is not small!"

Beyond the demonkin, he still did not know the exact strength of this Evil Swordsman.

Zhou Han was not afraid but he still had to be careful.

Ads by Pubfuture

He called up the attribute panel and read it.

[Zhou Han]

[Level: 25 (0.6%)]

[Class: Sword Soul (First Awakening)]

[Health: 8,750+44,000]

[Attack: 1,110+8,000]

[Defense: 640+4,800]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]

[Title: Number One Prodigy +10 (Providence Plunder)]

[Weapon: Green Cloud Sword +6 (Life Leech, 6x Attack, Armor Penetration)]

[Secondary Weapon: Famous Saber – Siming +7 (Invincible, Damage Reduction, Resistance)]

[Ring: Lightness Ring +7 (Armor Penetration, Critical Hit, Agility)]

[Earrings: Moonlight Earrings +6 (Critical Hit, Resistance, HP Recovery)]

[Equipment: Ghost Set +5]

[God Slaying Hall Buff: +6,000 HP]

After reading it, he was filled with confidence.

His HP exceeded 50,000, and his attack power added up to more than 9,000.

Defense of 5,000, coupled with the hidden Agility attribute, there were also the life-saving attributes of the Famous Saber and Divine-grade cultivation technique.

It made his survival ability very powerful.

"However, the Ghost Set is only Gold-grade now. It can't keep up."

After all, the Set was a combination of six parts.

It made Zhou Han a little dissatisfied.

In just a day or two, he had to change into a more advanced set.

Then, he checked his items and skills.

As a Divine-grade skill, [Skill Combination], it had only been enhanced six times.

"I don't have enough enhancement points now. After enhancing it ten times, I'll fuse all the unused skills."

After all, [Sky Dust Tyrant Blood] and [Number One Prodigy] had been enhanced ten times.

His enhancement points were used greatly.

In addition, Zhou Han had been doing awakening missions and did not farm monsters.

Therefore, his enhancement points were not enough.

"In any case, there are many demonic beasts in the Thunder Ruins. I'll farm some enhancement points along the way."

Zhou Han nodded.

All preparations were complete.

He stepped directly into the portal of the Thunder Ruins.

A white light flashed.

In the space of a breath, Zhou Han appeared in a dark wasteland.

[You left the peaceful area.]

[The current location is the Thunder Ruins. This is a combat area.]

[This place is cursed by the Demonkin White Bone Race. Current attributes have been reduced by 5%.]

As expected, a debuff was added as soon as he entered.

It's hard on others but did not affect Zhou Han much.

This loss of all attributes was still acceptable.

There was a thin black mist in the air, Zhou Han was surprised to find a group of people in front of him. There were a total of eight people. Clearly, they had just entered.

Above his head were the words [Mad Blood Mercenary Group].

Zhou Han knew that there were many such adventurer teams in Blue Thunder City.

These NPCs would also farm monsters and collect materials in various maps.

Just like the players, everyone wanted to live. It wasn't easy.

Zhou Han saw on the public chat that some players would also join the adventure team created by NPCs.

The leader of the adventurer team, Fat Tiger, was also surprised and bewildered when he saw Zhou Han.

Ads by Pubfuture

One had to know that this map was very dangerous.

Acting alone was tantamount to suicide.

"This place is dangerous, young man. You can't handle it alone. Go back!"

Fat Tiger walked over with his burly body and tried to persuade him kindly.

"Is it dangerous? I don't think there's danger anywhere!"

Zhou Han smiled and spoke, clearly not caring much.

"Not to mention encountering demonkin, even Diamond-grade demonic beasts are very difficult to deal with."

"Young man, don't bite off more than you can chew. It won't be too late to collect the materials when you're strong enough in the future."

Fat Tiger continued to explain nicely.

If not for some special material, he wouldn't have entered this dangerous map.

Chapter 75: Summoning the Sword Spirit, Golden Snake Sword

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Yes. The beasts in here are extraordinarily powerful. There are eight of us here, and we're all being careful."

"You'd better go to the Valley of the Undead for farming! You can't deal with such a place."

"Listen to Brother Tiger. It's not too late to back out. If the demonic beasts find out, you'll be in trouble."

A few teammates beside Fat Tiger also came over to echo.

They were all old members of the adventure team and had seen a lot.

They knew better than anyone the danger of the Thunder Ruins.

"Okay, are you done?"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Thank you for the warning. I'll leave now!"

After all, they were all kind reminders.

Zhou Han smiled and nodded in thanks.

Then ignoring them, he walked straight into the depths of the black fog.

Initially, he thought that after meeting so many NPCs, it should trigger some missions.

That was why he listened to their nonsense patiently.

But to his disappointment, it didn't.

Since there was nothing to be gained, Zhou Han naturally had no reason to continue chatting with them.

"Hey, why don't you listen to reason!"

Zhou Han did not go out but walked deeper into the black fog.

Fat Tiger shouted at his figure.

"How about this? You stay behind us. At least it's safer than you acting alone!"

However, Zhou Han did not stop.

He did not have time to waste on them.

He only took a glance and could tell that the strongest, Fat Tiger, was only at the top of the Platinum-grade.

"Brother Tiger, forget it. This kid really doesn't know how to appreciate kindness. We can't persuade him at all."

"Let him be! This kind of person has never suffered!"

"Brother Tiger is only being kind. Who else would talk so much nonsense to him?"

"We have to move too. Let's kill the Blood Shadow Violent Bear first."

"Let's go! Let's finish the mission! The longer we stay in such a terrifying place, the greater the risk."

The few of them chatted and quickly formulated a plan.

Zhou Han opened the map and located the coordinates of the Evil Swordsman.

He realized that the other party was in the deepest part of the Thunder Ruins.

Through the route planned by map, to kill the other party, he had to clear five or six wild monster strongholds.

"This guy sure knows how to hide!"

Zhou Han muttered with a smile and pulled out the Green Cloud Sword.

He headed towards the first wild monster stronghold, the Python River.

Soon he came to a clear river that was more than ten meters wide. To find the Evil Swordsman, this river had to be crossed.

The still water flowed deep and clear.

If one did not look carefully, one would not notice it at all.

There were a large number of demonic beasts lurking underwater.

However, Zhou Han had enhanced Appraisal.

No matter how well these pythons disguised themselves, there was nowhere to hide.

[Stone Pattern Python]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Level: Level 51]

[Health: 6,000]

[Attack: 2,100]

[Defense: 980]

[Skill 1: Water Elemental Wave (Control the water element and trigger three water waves attacks, causing 3.8 times the attack damage to all enemy units within a 10-meter radius)]

[Skill 2: Death Entanglement (Using the huge strength of the body to entangle the other party, causing 4.2 times the attack damage to a single target)]

[Description: Using the stone patterns on its body, it is good at disguise and sneak attacks. Weakness: Ice, Wind.]

After the appraisal, various data appeared.

It was a demonic beast that was good at using the water element. Its health was only 6,000.

It was completely insufficient to kill Zhou Han.

Attack and skills did not pose much of a threat to Zhou Han.

"Shadow Soul Spike!"

Zhou Han did not hesitate and threw a skill over.

-84,000

-85,000

-87,000

Three soul spikes shot out, powerful damage numbers floated out, and three of the pythons were instantly killed.

"Hiss!"

"Hiss!"

This was like lighting a gunpowder barrel.

The stone-patterned pythons in the river let out a violent roar.

They also understood that their disguise had been seen through.

One by one, they splashed out from the bottom of the river. The waves were monstrous, and their eyes were filled with coldness and bloodlust.

They stuck out their huge tongues. In an instant, the water elements of their control gathered together.

In the air, it was as if a river was flowing over.

A huge wave crashed towards Zhou Han.

It was as heavy as a mountain.

If he was pressed down, Zhou Han's body would not be able to withstand it.

"Good timing. Wind Thunder Dance, disperse!"

Zhou Han did not panic. Instead, he was a little happy.

If these pythons kept hiding in the water, if he released the skill, it would weaken much of its power through the power of water.

He would waste a lot of time cleaning up.

But now they all burst out of the water, this made things easier for Zhou Han.

He immediately used the [Wind Thunder Dance] skill.

Several tornadoes swayed up.

Without effort, the waves shattered.

It did not slow down. The wind swept towards these pythons.

Zhou Han also activated his full speed.

He rushed into the group of pythons and began to harvest.

One had to know that the Wind Thunder Dance had a 90% speed reduction effect.

Now the pythons moved slowly, like meat on a chopping board.

They were at Zhou Han's mercy.

-48,000

-45,000

-48,000

Sword aura rampaged, and the water light surged.

After killing for seven to eight minutes, more than a hundred pythons in front of him were all dead.

He picked up the three dropped pieces of equipment.

Zhou Han checked them one by one.

[Snake Earrings]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Attributes: HP +600, Defense +60]

[Special Effect: Increases poison resistance by 30%.]

[Description: It is known for its defense and is very toxic.]

Its defense was indeed very powerful, but Zhou Han already had the Moonlight Earrings.

He did not want to waste his enhancement points on this.

He put it into his spatial bag first.

Immediately after, he checked the second piece of equipment.

It was a dagger.

[Blood Poison Dagger]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Attributes: Attack +500, Agility +20]

[Special Effect: Deals damage to the target, losing 300 HP per second. Lasts for 10 seconds.]

[Description: Forged from Blood Poison Stone, it has a strong poison attribute.]

The effect was quite good. After enhancing it, the poison should be even stronger.

However, this was the exclusive weapon of the Night Assassin. As a Sword Soul, Zhou Han could not use it.

After accepting it, he looked at the last piece of equipment.

It was also a weapon and a long sword at that.

It looked strange. There was a small golden snake carved on it.

It was lifelike as if it were alive. It was very mysterious.

[Golden Snake Sword]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Attributes: Attack +600, Critical Rate +15%]

[Special Effect: It can wake up the Sword Spirit, Golden Snake, and assist the Sword Owner in attacking. It can exist in space outside the sword for 5 minutes.]

[Description: A sword that seals the sword spirit. It has great growth potential.]

Ads by Pubfuture

'Eh!'

It was actually a Diamond-grade weapon!

This was something Zhou Han did not expect.

"It must have dropped from the python leader."

Zhou Han thought of a python that was clearly much larger than the others.

At that time, he was too excited to care.

Now that he saw the diamond weapon that had dropped, he remembered.

Of course, Platinum-grade demonic beasts could also drop Diamond-grade equipment.

But that was really too difficult.

It was about as low as the probability of obtaining top-grade items.

Chapter 76: The Torturous Old Demon, Ao Zhen

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"It can wake the sword spirit? I wonder what effect it will have."

"And what will it become after enhancement?"

After seeing the special effect of the [Golden Snake Sword], Zhou Han muttered to himself curiously.

Zhou Han did not wake the sword spirit immediately. Instead, he waited until it was enhanced before waking it up.

He was mainly worried that waking up early would affect the enhancement process.

"Enhance it seven times!"

Without hesitation, Zhou Han directly activated enhancement.

After flashing seven to the white light in rapid succession, a system prompt sounded.

Ads by Pubfuture

[Your Golden Snake Sword has been successfully enhanced seven times. New attributes have been generated. Please check!]

Zhou Han opened the data on the interface.

[Golden Snake Sword +7]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Attributes: Attack +2,100, Critical Rate +50%]

[Special Effect 1: Increases life leech effect by 35%.]

[Special Effect 2: Increases skill damage by 10%.]

[Special Effect 3: Can summon the Sword Spirit, Flying Serpent Princess, to assist the Sword Owner in attacking. Can exist for an hour in space outside the sword body.]

[Description: A powerful sword spirit sleeps in the sword body space with great growth potential.]

As expected, after enhancement, the attack bonus directly exceeded 2,000, and there was also a 50% critical chance.

Special Effect 1 had a 35% life-leeching effect.

Special Effect 2 was the increase in skill damage.

Because Zhou Han had the cooldown effect of the Famous Saber, the cooldown was very short, with an additional 10% skill damage.

He could deal a lot of extra damage.

Finally, there was Special Effect 3. The Sword Spirit had evolved from the previous Golden Snake to the Flying Serpent.

"Flying Serpent?"

That was a powerful existence in mythology.

Seeing this, Zhou Han was also shocked.

It seemed that this sword spirit had a powerful background!

Flying Serpent, and with the word Princess, meant that it was very impressive.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han was a little excited.

He was also eager to wake this sword spirit and see what use it had.

He immediately gave it a try.

After manipulating it, he realized that the [Golden Snake Sword +7] could only summon the sword spirit when equipped.

The sword spirit seemed to be hidden in the sword.

"Come out, my sword spirit!"

Zhou Han waved his sword.

As soon as he finished speaking, golden light spewed out, bright and dazzling.

The way she appeared was very flashy.

"Did you wake me up?"

"What is this place?"

A timid voice came from the golden light. The words revealed fear.

The golden light dissipated, and a beautiful figure appeared in front of Zhou Han.

It was actually a little girl!

"What…"

Was this the Flying Serpent Princess?

Zhou Han thought that the other party was a domineering queen. He did not expect this.

At this moment, she opened her pure and innocent eyes and looked at Zhou Han timidly.

Zhou Han's gaze moved down.

He immediately blushed.

He tilted his head.

"Why—why aren't you dressed?" Zhou Han hurriedly asked.

The little girl was too capable. Zhou Han could not take it!

The other party was so innocent that Zhou Han did not dare to peek.

There was a sharp stab of guilt.

"Clothes? Why wear clothes? Isn't the human body the most beautiful?"

"The ultimate goal of our Flying Serpent Race cultivation is to transform into human form."

The Snake Girl Ao Zhen said doubtfully, as pure as paper.

She had only successfully transformed into human form today. Everything was not clear.

Before her mother could teach her about biology, she was pulled by an inexplicable force and fell into a deep sleep.

She woke up because of Zhou Han's call.

Then, she realized that she had become a sword spirit!

Hearing Snake Girl's words, Zhou Han was a little speechless.

What logic was this? If it looked good, she had to keep showing it.

"Hurry up and put your clothes on! Take this robe!"

Ads by Pubfuture

Zhou Han hurriedly took out a robe from his spatial bag and threw it over.

"But I don't want to wear it! It doesn't look good on me!"

Ao Zhen pouted and retorted unhappily.

"That's an order. I'm the Sword Owner. You're my sword spirit now! You have to listen to me!"

Zhou Han had no choice but to say in a commanding tone.

Otherwise, who knew what shocking things this girl would say?

"Oh, Zhen'er, listen to me!"

Hearing that she was still very cooperative, Zhou Han heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it did not appear. Ao Zhen did not know how to wear clothes.

Otherwise, Zhou Han really did not know how to end this.

"Are you done?"

"Oh, wait a minute…"

A minute later, Ao Zhen spoke again.

"Done!"

After all, she was not familiar with it, but her IQ was definitely normal.

She wouldn't ask for adult help like a child.

After fumbling for a while, she learned to wear human clothes.

"What's your name? How old are you?"

After hearing her words, Zhou Han walked over and asked.

"My name is Ao Zhen. I'm a thousand years old this year! I was born in the Cloud Void Sacred Palace."

Zhou Han: "…"

She was a thousand-year-old demon!

This was just a matter of age!

"By the way, you just said that I'm the sword spirit. Then you're my master now!"

"Master, please instruct Zhen'er!"

When Ao Zhen was in the Cloud Void Sacred Palace, the maidservants inside spoke to her father like this.

She followed suit, her eyes dancing as she smiled charmingly.

"Who did you learn this from? It's a mess."

Zhou Han flicked Ao Zhen's little head with his finger.

He directly rejected such a tempting request.

"I can massage Master's shoulders and legs!"

"Ahem! No need. Just stay aside!"

Zhou Han felt a little apologetic for summoning Ao Zhen.

Now, if he still ordered her around like a maid, that was really too beastly.

Anyway, Zhou Han could not do such a shameless thing.

"Boohoo… Do you despise me! You heartless person!"

Ao Zhen ran over and hugged Zhou Han.

She immediately cried profusely.

"…"

What the hell was this?

Ao Zhen was like an annoying old demon.

'She's more than a thousand years old. Can't she be more mature?'

This gave Zhou Han a headache. He could only disarm himself and launch a sneak attack.

"I—I'm not! Okay, okay, massage my shoulders!"

Was this really a princess?

'Do you like serving people that much?'

Moreover, she was crying, making a fuss, and hanging herself. How did she learn this move?

Could it be that a woman was born with it?

Ao Zhen smiled through her tears and began to work happily.

"Sure enough, this worked!"

Because she saw that many women had used this move to defeat her father.

Perhaps she was a little excited because she had just transformed into a human!

She wanted to try everything!

While enjoying Ao Zhen's massage, Zhou Han checked her attributes.

Chapter 77: Don't Kiss Me in the Future

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After reading it, Zhou Han sighed at the power of Ao Zhen's attributes.

As expected of someone with the Flying Serpent Emperor bloodline.

Now, the initial quality had reached the Diamond-grade.

She was only Level 30, but she was much more powerful than ordinary Level 50 demonic beasts.

The most important and exaggerated thing was that as long as she swallowed the blood essence of demonic beasts, she could advance.

In that case, there would be a lot of room for growth.

She was also very valuable to nurture.

When she grew up, she would also be a powerful help.

Ads by Pubfuture

'I wonder how much blood essence she has to devour to advance.' Zhou Han thought.

If too many resources were needed, Zhou Han would definitely not nurture her.

With these resources, he might as well increase his strength.

His eyes lit up at the sight of the python corpses everywhere.

Wasn't there already essence blood?

"Zhen'er, do you see these stone-patterned pythons? You can devour all of this essence blood now!"

"Eat them while it's hot! Otherwise, it'll be cold soon!"

Zhou Han pointed around and said with a smile.

"Oh! These are so dirty. They're disgusting. Zhen'er doesn't like them!"

Ao Zhen stopped kneading her shoulder and wrinkled her nose. She spoke with a conflicted expression.

She had seen these things long ago, but she could not stand the blood.

She had no experience swallowing blood essence as the princess of the Cloud Void Sacred Palace.

Naturally, it was impossible to eat such inferior products.

"…"

Zhou Han rubbed his forehead, speechless.

Come on, this was a princess with standards.

Such things were not worthy of her attention.

"If you don't devour blood essence, how can you increase your strength?"

"Here, look at this… I've been eating this to increase my cultivation."

The thing in her chest flickered, and a few pills appeared.

It made Zhou Han wonder how the thing was hidden in that place.

Then, he noticed that there was a necklace buried in an unfathomable gully on Ao Zhen's chest.

"So it's a storage necklace! I guess I was imagining things."

NPCs in this world also had storage space, but it was only limited to high-level NPCs.

Yesterday at the Sword God Hall, Zhou Han had seen Elder Lin wearing a storage ring.

It was not surprising that Ao Zhen had a storage necklace.

"Master, look, Father got someone to refine many of these pills for me. It takes three days for me to refine one!"

Ao Zhen blinked her big eyes and handed it over.

"Well, let me see! It's indeed quite unique!"

Zhou Han hurriedly looked away from her chest.

As soon as the pill entered his hand, he could feel the heat.

It was red as if flames were flickering on it.

"The temperature is high. This flame is extraordinary!"

Zhou Han's powerful body felt a slight burning pain.

He hurriedly used the ability in his body to wrap the pill.

Only then did it offset the power of the flames.

After activating Appraisal, the attributes of the pill appeared.

[Flame Blood Pill]

[Grade: King]

[Description: Made from the essence of a demonic beast's bloodline and the Endless Sky Flame.]

[Effect: Fire attack increases by 10% and condenses 1% of bloodline power.]

[Description: This is limited to fire-attribute cultivators. If other cultivators consume it, they will be burned by the Endless Sky Flame.]

"Good lord, it's actually a King-grade pill."

Until now, Zhou Han had only obtained a King-grade Dragon Blood Pill.

It was given by Nie Tianchen, and the probability of awakening a True Dragon bloodline was very low.

Now, Ao Zhen had taken out several King-grade pills.

It was like free snacks.

Ao Zhen's background was even more terrifying than he had imagined!

Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Zhou Han continued reading.

"The effect is to increase the fire attack power and condense it with the bloodline. This is quite suitable for her."

However, this pill could only be consumed by fire-attribute cultivators.

It was a pity.

He did not have any fire elements in his body, so he could not consume it.

"Zhen'er, you mentioned your father just now. What level is he?"

Zhou Han asked tentatively.

"I'm not sure what level he is. He's the strongest person in the Flying Serpent Race. He once instantly killed five Emperor-grade experts."

Damn, this was too fierce!

Zhou Han's current level was already enough to challenge a Starlight-grade expert.

However, there was still a huge difference from the Emperor-grade.

Now, he had inexplicably brought Ao Zhen over to be a sword spirit.

'He won't come after me, will he?'

"Then how is your relationship with your father?"

Zhou Han frowned and continued to ask.

"Very good! I'm the apple of his eye! Why are you suddenly asking this, Master?"

Ao Zhen blinked her innocent eyes and asked curiously.

Hearing her answer, Zhou Han's heart sank.

That meant that the other party would definitely do everything possible to find Ao Zhen!

He had to increase his strength as soon as possible.

Still, he laughed and blabbed.

"You've become my sword spirit now. As your master, I have to care about you!"

"You're so kind, Master. Mooch!"

What responded to Zhou Han were warm lips.

"Don't ever do such a thing to me again, understand?"

After a long while, Zhou Han warned.

He had almost lost control and taken her down on the spot.

Not to mention Ao Zhen's innocence, Zhou Han felt guilty.

Now, in the Thunder Ruins, facing the threat of the demonkin, there was still a lot of danger.

If he did that and was ambushed, he would be finished.

Therefore, Zhou Han could not bear to leave and pushed Ao Zhen away.

"Why not? My mother often did such things with my father to express her love."

Ao Zhen tilted her head and said suspiciously.

"This is different. You'll understand later!"

Through their conversation, Zhou Han also knew that Ao Zhen had only transformed into her human form today.

There was a lot of knowledge that she did not understand. He could only wait until he had free time to teach her in the future.

But not now.

"Why is it different?"

"There aren't so many whys. All you have to do is listen to me!"

There would be no end to the explanation.

Zhou Han touched Ao Zhen's head and said domineeringly.

"Oh, oh, okay. Master's orders are absolute!"

At the same time, in the clouds, there was a huge palace—Cloud Void Sacred Palace.

Above the palace was a dignified middle-aged man.

His aura was oppressive, and no one dared to look at him directly.

He was the Flying Serpent Sacred Emperor, Ao Wuya.

"How is it? Have you heard from Zhen'er?"

He spoke slowly, anger on his handsome face.

The deep voice came out, making the guards around him shiver.

"Your Majesty, we've searched the entire area for a thousand miles. There's no sign of the princess."

The guard below reported carefully.

"What did you say?"

Ao Wuya suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open.

Everyone was so frightened that they did not dare to breathe.

"The princess… it's as if she disappeared into thin air! She didn't leave a trace!"

The guard stammered and whispered.

Chapter 78: Wasting Clothes, Ao Zhen Advances

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Disappeared?"

Ao Wuya muttered softly, his expression as dark as water.

He also had some doubts.

Either someone had heaven-defying strength or had used special methods.

Ao Wuya was more inclined to the second possibility.

If the other party was really powerful, there was no need to be so sneaky.

After a moment of silence, Ao Wuya spoke, his dignified voice resounding throughout the hall.

"Pass down my orders. Expand the area and search with all your might. We must find news of the princess."

Ads by Pubfuture

"Whoever can provide any useful clues will be rewarded with a million soul crystals and I guarantee that he will advance to the King-grade!"

Ao Wuya's eyes narrowed, and his right finger drew a few strokes in the air.

A golden token appeared in the air of the hall.

It multiplied rapidly, then it turned into countless golden specks that spread in all directions.

A few minutes later, within a thousand miles, a large number of demon beasts had gathered. They were all ruled by the Cloud Void Sacred Palace.

Wherever the light spot passed, these demon beasts could clearly sense the contents of the Holy Token.

It caused a huge wave. All of them were extremely shocked, like a bolt from the blue.

"Woof! The princess is actually missing. A huge commotion will occur! Woof! My Spirit Dog Race must seize this opportunity. As long as we find the princess, we will definitely soar."

"Meow, meow, meow! All the warriors of the Shadow Cat Race, gather and do your best to find the princess."

"This matter is too strange. It's not as simple as we thought. Our clan should wait and see!"

"Let the other races scout the way first! This matter reveals something unusual!"

"Hehe, I want to see how Ao Wuya will deal with this! The heavens are really helping me. Send someone to contact those wavering factions."

All the factions within the territory of the Cloud Void Sacred Palace had different thoughts.

Some wanted to move out, others watched from afar, and there were even more with ill intentions.

These demon beasts were all extremely smart, and their intelligence was not inferior to humans!

Ao Wuya's anger had reached its peak.

Not only was Ao Zhen missing, but more importantly, he had lost all face.

Just think about it, the Cloud Void Sacred Palace was heavily guarded.

The princess had inexplicably disappeared.

Wasn't that a slap in the face?

As the Supreme Emperor, he could not even protect his daughter.

His pride was damaged.

How could the surrounding forces submit to him?!

"Whoever you are, I'm going to find you and tear you to pieces!"

However, at this moment, Zhou Han did not know that he had only summoned a sword spirit.

Yet it caused such a stir.

"Let's see if the enhanced Flame Blood Pill can remove the restrictions."

Zhou Han did not have any fire elements in his body, but the attributes of the Flame Blood Pill were very powerful.

He wanted to try enhancing it.

After chanting enhancement in his heart, nine white lights flashed, and the new attributes were also displayed.

[Flame Blood Pill +9]

[Grade: King]

[Description: Made from the essence of a demonic beast's bloodline and the Endless Sky Flame.]

[Effect: Fire attack increases by 120%, condenses 15% of bloodline power, and awakens a small amount of the Endless Sky Flame.]

[Description: This is limited to fire-attribute cultivators. The user must have a powerful physique. Otherwise, they will be reduced to ashes by the Endless Sky Flame.]

The effect of the enhancement was indeed much stronger.

However, Zhou Han was still very disappointed.

It was still limited to fire-attribute cultivators!

"Zhen'er, your physique should be very strong!"

Zhou Han asked directly, wanting to confirm.

"Of course. My main body is a Flying Serpent, and it's often tempered by flames."

Ads by Pubfuture

"Do you want me to show you my true form?"

Ao Zhen said proudly, as if she was very proud of her bloodline.

"No, no, no. It's better if you don't show your true form. You're fine as you are."

Zhou Han hurriedly waved his hand to stop her.

He didn't want to see a snake and feel disgusted.

"Take this Flame Blood Pill! The effect will definitely be much better than before."

Since Ao Zhen's physique was powerful, there should be no problem taking this enhanced pill.

In any case, Zhou Han had no use for it.

If she became stronger, his combat strength would increase correspondingly.

"Oh, I'll try!"

After Ao Zhen took it, she swallowed it without hesitation.

"The power of flames and the bloodline growth are even stronger!"

After consuming it, she clearly felt that something was amiss!

Her beautiful eyes looked at Zhou Han.

As her master, he did not seem to be simple.

Just as she was about to ask, her expression suddenly changed.

"Uh, oh…"

Wild flames spread through her body, and a violent burning pain surged like a tide!

She opened her mouth and moaned softly.

She resisted the erosion of the flames with all her might.

"This… this is the Endless Sky Flame?"

"What a powerful and domineering force. It seems to want to burn everything!"

Ao Zhen frowned, her eyes filled with shock.

One had to know that she took the Flame Blood Pill every day.

It was refined with the Endless Sky Flame, so she was naturally extremely familiar with it.

But at this moment she was amazed to find that the medicinal pill contained the power of the Endless Sky Flame.

If she could withstand this burning, the Endless Sky Flame could be used by her.

This method was too powerful.

Without any time to think, the Sky Flame became even more ferocious.

Even the outside of the body burst into flames, and the clothes she had just put on instantly turned to dust.

"Damn! I didn't expect just a small amount of the Endless Sky Flame to have such power."

"Will she burn to death?!"

Zhou Han, who was at the side, could clearly feel the terrifying heat.

He immediately became worried.

It would be a shame for such a beautiful girl to die.

Just as Zhou Han was hesitating whether to help, the flames stopped abruptly, and Ao Zhen's body fell to the ground.

Zhou Han hurriedly walked forward.

Naturally, he ignored her beautiful body.

"Zhen'er!"

"Zhen'er…"

Seeing that she had no reaction and could not be woken, Zhou Han pressed his hand on her neck.

"Phew! Her body is so hot!"

"Fortunately, my pulse is beating and I'm breathing!"

Ads by Pubfuture

After investigating the situation, Zhou Han heaved a sigh of relief.

It should be that the power of the Endless Sky Flame was too ferocious. Even if Ao Zhen's physique was powerful, it was difficult to adapt to such violent energy.

She had no burn marks on her, but it was just a little troublesome to replace her clothes again!

What a vixen!

It made Zhou Han's mouth go dry!

"I have to think of a way to get her a set of clothes with strong fire resistance in the future!"

Otherwise, it would be very awkward if her clothes were burned during the battle!

Just as Zhou Han was letting his imagination run wild, a system prompt sounded.

[Your sword spirit, Ao Zhen, has fallen into a deep sleep and is advancing…]

[Current bloodline purity is 100%. Advancing…]

Chapter 79: Blood Shadow Violent Bear, Unlocking a New Skill

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Advance? So soon?"

He did not expect her to advance after eating an enhanced pill!

Perhaps she had accumulated it before, but now, she had broken through.

Hearing the system notification, Zhou Han was delighted.

In short, he had profited greatly this time. A Diamond-grade Golden Snake Sword had dropped.

After enhancing it, it could actually summon such a powerful sword spirit.

Most importantly, she could constantly advance.

Zhou Han did not know what to say. He could only say that SSS-rank talent was infinitely powerful.

Ads by Pubfuture

"How long will it take to wake up?"

[Time is unknown. Please be patient!]

Even the system could not give an accurate time.

Zhou Han still had a mission, so he naturally would not wait around.

[Do you want to recall her to the Golden Serpent Sword?]

Zhou Han did not agree immediately.

Instead, he took out a robe from his spatial bag and wrapped it around Ao Zhen's body.

In case he summoned her next time and someone else was around, he would suffer a huge loss.

"Recall the sword spirit!"

After dealing with it, Zhou Han said.

With that, a golden light enveloped her and pulled her into the world of the sword.

[Sword Spirit recalled successful.]

Through understanding, Zhou Han knew that the sword spirit could still be nourished in the world of the sword body.

Therefore, there was no need to worry too much.

He retracted his thoughts.

Zhou Han carried his sword on his back.

He directly used the [Levitation] skill and crossed the river.

He walked towards the second wild monster stronghold, Violent Bear Forest.

Roar!

Roar!

He was still a few meters from the territory when he heard a manic roar.

The demonic beast in front of him was red and covered in explosive muscles.

It was filled with violence.

[Blood Shadow Violent Bear]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Level: 53]

[Health: 6,800]

[Attack: 2,300]

[Defense: 1,500]

[Skill 1: Rockfall (Summon a huge rock and cause 3.9 times the attack damage to all enemy units within a 10-meter radius)]

[Skill 2: Blood Shadow Rage (Blood Shadow Possession, unleashes the potential of the body. Increases all attributes by 100% within 150 seconds.)]

[Description: A strength-type demonic beast that is good at earth elements and close combat. Weakness: Water, Thunder.]

After Zhou Han quickly appraised it, he discovered that regardless of attributes or skills, the Blood Shadow Violent Bear was much stronger than the Stone-Patterned Python.

When dealing with the Stone-Patterned Python, Zhou Han could still easily deal with it.

Thanks to the skill [Wind Thunder Dance], it just happened to restrain their water-element skills.

Therefore, it could be dealt with quickly and easily.

"Looks like I have to spend more effort and time!"

The Blood Shadow Violent Bear's territorial awareness was extremely strong.

Seeing Zhou Han approaching, they were all aggressive and ran over like mountains of flesh.

They launched their fiercest attack.

"Eight Directional Heaven Splitter!"

Zhou Han did not hesitate and rushed over.

He channeled his strength and slashed at the sword.

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground in an eight-meter radius cracked.

A fierce sword aura erupted from the crack,

He instantly killed all nine Blood Shadow Violent Bears that were charging over!

"The attack range of the skill is still too short! It's only 8 meters!"

Zhou Han shook his head. The output of the Eight Directional Heaven Splitter was indeed a little weak.

It did not match this domineering name at all.

"Ah! Roar…"

Without any time to think, the remaining Blood Shadow Violent Bears instantly activated their Rage skill.

Looking up, the sky suddenly darkened.

Countless huge stones floated in the air, blocking the light.

Then, at the same time, they all fell.

It made Zhou Han's scalp tingle.

There were too many boulders, and each one probably weighed more than a thousand kilograms.

More than two hundred Blood Shadow Violent Bears activated the [Rockfall] at the same time. Its power was obvious.

Fortunately, Zhou Han discovered it early. Otherwise, he would really have been smashed into meat paste.

"Sky Dust Tyrant Blood! Use my blood to shake the sky!"

Zhou Han activated a divine-grade cultivation technique without hesitation.

–320

–315

+2500

With a 90% damage reduction, he was almost invincible.

Each boulder could only cause more than 300 damage.

Moreover, Zhou Han could recover 2,500 HP per second.

There was no pressure at all.

This was the power of the enhanced Divine-grade cultivation technique.

Even the boulders that filled the sky could not move it.

Instead, many damage values floated out from the heads of all the Blood Shadow Violent Bears.

-4,485

-4,329

-4,136

50% of the backlash had already made them crippled.

"Die! I'll eat roasted bear paws today!"

Zhou Han rushed out of the dust.

A cold voice pronounced their death sentence.

These Blood Shadow Violent Bears were also dumbfounded.

The combined attacks of more than 200 warriors were actually unable to harm the humans in front of them at all.

They were so frightened that they fled in all directions.

It was not embarrassing to escape if you could not win.

They were extremely intelligent and would not fight to the death like low-level demonic beasts.

Otherwise, they couldn't have survived in the Thunder Ruins for so many years without being extinct.

"Just nice, let me farm the proficiency of the Eight Directional Heaven Splitter!"

One had to know that the Lin Family Sword Technique had a total of three skills.

Now, he had only activated [Sky Splitting Slash] and [Eight Directional Heaven Splitter].

Thinking of this, Zhou Han jumped out like a cheetah.

He began to harvest the Blood Shadow Violent Bears.

His current movement speed was very abnormal.

The Blood Shadow Violent Bear was originally good at strength and had pitifully low agility.

In Zhou Han's eyes, their running was just slow motion.

Every time the sword flashed, the huge bodies of a few Blood Shadow Violent Bears would fall to the ground.

At this moment, the Mad Blood Mercenary Group carefully avoided danger.

Finally, they arrived at the boundary of the Python River.

Soon, however, they noticed something unusual.

"Brother Tiger, why is there a strong smell of blood ahead!"

"There must have been a fight! Let's go and see!"

When they approached, their eyes were filled with shock.

Ahead of them, on the ground, were the corpses of more than a hundred stone-striped pythons.

The smell of blood was thick. They had obviously been killed not long ago.

"They were all killed in one blow. It was clean and efficient. He's definitely an expert!"

"It's too terrifying! It's already very difficult for us to deal with one of these stone-striped pythons alone! Now there are more than a hundred of them. Their combat strength can be imagined!"

"I'm afraid only those famous and powerful people in Blue Thunder City can achieve such strength!"

"That doesn't make sense! With their strength, how can they lower themselves to collect materials in the Thunder Ruins?!"

"That's strange. Who could that be? Who else entered this place?"

The members of the Mad Blood Mercenary Group were all bewildered.

They speculated.

"Now that you mention it, I remember someone! Do you think it was the handsome man we met just now?"

"Maybe he's a hidden expert!"

The only female member of the team spoke.

"Little Red, are you infatuated with him because he's handsome?"

"That kid has probably been swallowed by the demonic beasts!"

"That's right. The eight of us were all careful along the way. That kid is probably doomed!"

Hearing everyone's words, Little Red also blushed.

She did have some beautiful fantasies after seeing Zhou Han's looks.

Now that she had been exposed, she was so embarrassed that she could not retort.

"Alright, stop guessing. We have business to attend to."

"This snake gall and snake skin are worth a lot of money! Hurry up and collect the materials."

The regiment commander, Fat Tiger, stood up and said directly.

Actually, he also had some guesses about Zhou Han's strength, but he quickly denied them.

He shook his head and laughed at himself.

Ads by Pubfuture

After all, the other party was only a young man.

How could he be so powerful?

"We're rich now! We got lucky!"

"It's a waste of such good materials!"

"What do you know? Would an expert take a fancy to something like this?"

"Exactly. Do you think the emperor farms with a gold hoe? You can't understand it until you reach that level!"

The group of mercenaries began to get busy, happily collecting materials.

[Your skill, Eight Directional Heaven Splitter, has been perfected.]

[You have successfully unlocked the skill, Ghost Slash. Please check it!]

Chapter 80: Giving Fat Tiger Face

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After constantly using the Eight Directional Heaven Splitter to clean up the Blood Shadow Violent Bears, finally, a system prompt sounded.

A new skill was officially unlocked.

At this point, all the skills of the Lin Family Sword Technique had been activated.

"Check my skills!"

[Ghost Slash]

[Grade: Silver]

[Origin: Lin Family Sword Technique]

[Category: Damage]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Description: Charge for 1 second and release the power of the ghost soul.]

[Effect: Deals 280% damage to targets within an 8-meter straight line.]

Before it was enhanced, it was ordinary.

After all, it was only a Silver-grade skill and had no merit.

However, Zhou Han did not plan to enhance this skill. Instead, he prepared to fuse it into a new skill.

Now there are enough enhancement points, Zhou Han first enhanced the Divine-grade cultivation technique [Skill Combination] ten times.

[Skill Combination +10]

[Grade: Divine]

[Owner: Grand Primordium Ancient Scroll]

[Category: Support]

[Description: It can fuse any number of skills to form a new skill. (Suggested in the same series of skills)]

[Effect: New skill, 99% chance to increase 1 grade, 60% chance to increase 2 grades, 0.1% chance to increase 3 grades.]

After seeing the effect, Zhou Han's eyes lit up.

The effect also became stronger and stronger. There was actually a chance of increasing by two to three grades.

A Divine-grade cultivation technique was so terrifying.

All the preparations were done. What were they waiting for?

Zhou Han did not fuse directly.

"Fuse the Eight Directional Heaven Splitter with the Ghost Slash!"

[Synthesis successful. A new skill has been generated. Please check!]

"Huh! Very nice! It's actually reached the Platinum grade."

After Zhou Han checked, he was also overjoyed.

The probability of increasing two grades is only 60%.

It wasn't high, but it felt good to have successfully triggered it now.

As for the 0.1% chance of increasing three grades, Zhou Han did not even think about it.

After enhancing it six times, the various attributes were also displayed.

[Evil Light Ghost God Slash +6]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Origin: Lin Family Sword Technique]

[Category: Damage]

[Description: Charge for 1 to 5 seconds, releasing the terrifying power of ghosts and gods. (The longer the charge, the higher the damage)]

[Effect: Deals 10 times the damage to a single target within a 30-meter radius. Once the damage is dealt, the target will enter a 'Ghost Devouring' state and lose 1% of its maximum HP every second for 10 seconds.]

"Ghost power?"

This instantly became more impressive.

Moreover, the damage was considerable. Since there was a tenfold increase in damage, it could also lose a percentage of the target's health, and the damage could be guaranteed.

Looking at the remaining skills, Zhou Han gave up on fusing them.

These skills had their own uses.

After all, he did not have many skills at this stage.

If he combined a very useless skill, it would be a huge loss.

It would also cause his combat strength to decrease.

Closing the skill panel, Zhou Han began to count the spoils of war.

[You have obtained 7 Platinum equipment.]

[You have obtained 39 Gold equipment.]

[You have obtained Lava Set Fragment.]

Zhou Han searched the corpses of the Blood Shadow Violent Bears.

The harvest was still very good.

There were seven Platinum-grade equipment alone, and the drop rate was already very impressive.

"Hmm? A fragment of the Lava Set?"

Among the many notifications, Zhou Han acutely noticed this message.

After all, the others were all finished equipment, and this was a fragment that seemed very abrupt.

Just as Zhou Han was about to check, a few shouts suddenly came from behind!

"Kid, the materials here are all from our Azure Dragon Mercenary Group."

"Get lost if you know what's good for you, or watch your head."

"Hey, I'm talking to you! If you touch our things again, I'll f*cking kill you!"

Zhou Han frowned, and a cold glint flashed across his eyes.

This Azure Dragon Mercenary Group was so domineering!

These Blood Shadow Violent Bears were clearly killed by Zhou Han. They were distorting the truth.

They wanted to take it by force.

"You said these corpses are yours?"

Zhou Han stood up and pointed at the corpses of these Blood Shadow Violent Bears.

"Are you deaf? Of course it's ours."

"I told you to get lost. Didn't you hear me?"

One of the lackeys had a fiery temper and usually relied on the reputation of the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group.

He was used to being arrogant and overbearing.

He went forward and wanted to grab Zhou Han's shoulder.

"You have a death wish!"

Zhou Han's shoulder moved, and a huge force spread out.

The lackey screamed as he was knocked several meters away and fell to the ground.

"You, you… just wait!"

"How dare you go against our Azure Dragon Mercenary Group? Are you tired of living?"

The lackey was shocked and furious. He gritted his teeth and said fiercely!

"Hurry up and report to Brother Qinglong. This is a challenge to the dignity of our adventurer team!"

Zhou Han saw that a few people had gone back to report and did not stop them.

He did not kill them.

"Perfect. If everyone comes, I'll capture them all!"

Zhou Han smiled calmly. This would save a lot of trouble.

Then he began to count the spoils again.

"Brother Tiger, how strange. All the Blood Shadow Violent Bears here were killed!"

"Depends. It was the same person."

"I just dug up the bear gallbladder and found it broken."

"Goodness, this person is too powerful! Even the Blood Shadow Violent Bear was scared out of its wits!"

After the members of the Mad Blood Mercenary Group finished collecting the materials of the Stone-Patterned Python, they came to the Violent Bear Forest again and were also shocked by the situation.

"Look, that's the people from the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group. Have they also entered this place?"

"Now everything makes sense. The Stone-Patterned Pythons and Blood Shadow Violent Bears here were killed by the people from the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group."

"No wonder. As expected of the number one adventurer team in Blue Thunder City, they're actually so strong!"

Everyone exclaimed in their hearts. There were many experts in the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group.

It also had a complicated relationship with the various large factions in Blue Thunder City.

"Is something wrong? There are so many of them. What are they doing?"

"Let's go and take a look too!"

There were more than twenty people in front of him. They were all wearing identical black short shirts.

Ads by Pubfuture

Each had an azure dragon tattooed on their arms, they were burly and looked very domineering.

At this moment, their faces were filled with cruel smiles.

They looked at Zhou Han with teasing and ill intentions.

"Kid, I can't be bothered to waste my breath. You provoked our adventurer team. I, Yan Qinglong, am not an unreasonable person."

"How about this! I'll give you a chance. Get down on your knees and kowtow ten times. Cut off a hand yourself and let this go."

The leader, Yan Qinglong, was bald.

The words were flawless, making him look merciful.

Zhou Han narrowed his eyes. He did not want to waste time.

A pleading voice came from behind.

"Brother Qinglong, give me some face. We'll pay the compensation we deserve. How about letting this young man go?"

Chapter 81: Eradicated

Fat Tiger happened to see this when he rushed over.

They quickly understood that the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group was bullying them.

Despite facing Yan Qinglong's might, even though Zhou Han was just a stranger, he, who was born with a sense of justice, still stood up without hesitation.

At this moment, Fat Tiger looked a little afraid. He lowered his head and pleaded with Yan Qinglong.

Whether it worked or not, he had to try before he knew.

When Zhou Han saw Fat Tiger's arrival, he was speechless.

"This guy is really nosy! You're not the main character. Aren't you courting death?"

He did not have the protagonist's life, but he had the protagonist's personality!

Ads by Pubfuture

Zhou Han was not a righteous person, but he admired people who insisted on justice.

As expected, Yan Qinglong sneered.

"Fat Tiger? Do you think you have the right to bargain with me?"

"What are you? Fat Tiger? Your name is freaking domineering! Why aren't you called Fat Cat?"

Yan Qinglong looked very unhappy and attacked mercilessly.

This was the confidence of being the leader of the number one adventurer team.

"Hahaha… I'm like a little kitten now!"

"Hehe, how can a palm-sized force like the Mad Blood Mercenary Group be worthy of talking to us?"

"You ungrateful fellow, how dare you state conditions with our Brother Qinglong?"

The people from the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group sneered endlessly.

Although the members of the Mad Blood Mercenary Group were aggrieved, they did not dare to say anything.

They had no choice. The other party's fist was big.

"Brother Qinglong, I…"

Fat Tiger wanted to fight for more but was quickly interrupted.

Slap!

A loud slap with such force that half of Fat Tiger's face was lacerated.

"Get lost! Say another word, and I'll f*cking make an example of you first!"

Yan Qinglong's eyes were as vicious as a venomous snake.

He crossed his arms and turned to look at Zhou Han with a cold smile.

"Have you considered it? My time is limited! Kneel and kowtow now!"

Yan Qinglong rubbed his bald head, showing off his arrogance.

"Of course, I've thought about it!"

Under Zhou Han's calm voice was endless anger.

Seeing Fat Tiger in such a miserable state and being humiliated, no matter what, he was standing up for Zhou Han, even though he didn't need it.

The monstrous killing intent in Zhou Han's heart was about to erupt.

"At least you're sensible. Be careful in the future. You can't provoke just anyone."

Yan Qinglong smiled. As expected, it was a smile.

He had tried this method many times. This was the dignity brought by powerful strength.

Fat Tiger looked at Zhou Han with a trace of sadness in his eyes.

This young man was about to lose a hand and become crippled.

However, he was helpless because Yan Qinglong was too strong.

He also established complicated relationships with the various large factions in Blue Thunder City.

Not to mention that he did not have the strength to fight him now.

Even those with strength had to think twice before offending them.

"I've thought it through! I'll remove you completely today!"

"From now on, there will be no Azure Dragon Mercenary Group in Blue Thunder City!"

Zhou Han's expression was calm as he slowly explained.

A murderous aura filled the air.

"Very well. Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish!"

Yan Qinglong's eyes emitted a ferocious glint as he laughed in anger. Then, he turned around and shouted at his lackeys.

"Brothers, did you hear that? This kid wants to remove our Azure Dragon Mercenary Group?"

Clearly, he did not take Zhou Han's words seriously.

"Hahaha! This is the funniest joke I've heard in forty years!"

"Kid, you have a talent for telling jokes! Are you trying to make us happy and beg Brother Qinglong's forgiveness?"

"He's probably stunned by Brother Qinglong's aura. Wasn't there a young man the day before yesterday who peed his pants?"

"Eradicate the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group? Even the people from the four major families of Blue Thunder City don't dare to make such arrogant claims."

"That's why this kid doesn't know his place! Otherwise, he wouldn't have provoked us!"

Hearing Zhou Han's cold words, everyone laughed so hard that they fell back.

They did not believe that Zhou Han could defeat all of them alone.

He was just a young man. How strong could he be?

These members were experienced.

Not to mention the powerful Yan Qinglong.

"Laugh! Laugh hard in hell!"

Zhou Han pulled out the Golden Snake Sword. The blade was sharp and cold.

The circling sword aura swept up the fallen leaves on the ground.

He did not waste any more breath on this group of dying people.

The second move of the Fallen Leaf Sword Technique, Wind Thunder Dance, was directly activated.

"Wind, Thunder!"

In an instant, the wind howled and thunder roared!

It enveloped everyone from the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group.

The damage of this skill was not high, but the control effect worked well.

90% speed reduction was very disgusting.

Zhou Han was going to kill them all now.

"Hmph! Everyone has to die. No one can escape!"

Looking at the sudden change, everyone was stunned.

They quickly felt that powerful aura.

The smiles froze on their faces, replaced by panic.

"Damn, what kind of move is this?! Why can't I walk?! Why is my speed so slow?"

"Oh my God, why is this electric arc so strong? It seriously injured me in an instant!"

"I know this is the Wind Thunder Dance, but the speed reduction and damage are both wrong!"

"It's difficult to move at this range. We can only take hits passively. Hurry up and add a defense shield for us!"

In a few seconds, Zhou Han used his weakest skill.

He killed a few people instantly, throwing them into chaos.

However, as the number one adventurer team, they had definitely recruited some support classes.

They could cast shields, gain health, and damage reduction!

All of them had low HP, but they were not dead.

Soon, the effect of the enhanced Wind Thunder Dance was displayed.

90% deceleration made them miserable.

It was impossible to escape. They could only defend and attack passively.

"Hmm? You have some skills. I almost misjudged you! No wonder you dare to speak arrogantly!"

A look of shock flashed across Yan Qinglong's face as he put away his contempt.

"Unfortunately, these are not enough!"

"You're still too weak!"

Clearly, the Wind Thunder Dance did not cause too much damage to him.

That was why he said it.

After saying that, Yan Qinglong took out two black sharp claws and put them on.

His aura suddenly became violent, and his sharp claws were filled with a cold aura.

With an acceleration, he flashed towards Zhou Han.

"Yes? Unaffected by the deceleration?"

Zhou Han was only a little surprised.

Then he quickly checked his attributes and equipment.

[Berserk Warrior—Yan Qinglong]

[Level: 68]

[Life: 23,600]

[Attack: 5,100]

[Defense: 2,650]

[Weapon: Raging Hell Claws]

[Equipment: Battle Soul Set]

[Accessory: Safety Talisman]

[Cultivation Technique: Flame Overlord Technique]

Chapter 82: Raging Hell Claws, That's It?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Seeing his title, this was a warrior class that specialized in close combat.

He had also reached Level 68.

It was slightly stronger than Wan Yuhe.

However, in a real battle, attributes were only a reference.

She was the daughter of the Sword Emperor, so her resources were definitely not bad.

No wonder Yan Qinglong had the right to be arrogant.

When Zhou Han saw the description of the accessory, he knew why he was not disturbed by the deceleration.

Although this talisman was only Platinum-grade, there was an 80% chance of being immune to negative statuses.

Ads by Pubfuture

Yan Qinglong had just triggered this effect.

Therefore, he could rush out and fight Zhou Han head-on.

Otherwise, he would be trapped in the wind and unable to move.

"This talisman is not bad. If only it could drop later!"

Zhou Han had already thought of what would happen after the battle.

However, Yan Qinglong had already rushed up to him.

"You want to fight me in close combat? Then I'll let you enjoy it!"

Zhou Han's lips curled into a smile.

To be honest, Zhou Han had no blind spots in close combat or long-range combat.

All his attributes were maxed out anyway.

"Flame Tyrant Ripping Claw!"

"My sharp claws are invincible. I'll tear you to pieces!"

Seeing the contempt in Zhou Han's eyes flash, Yan Qinglong seemed to be stung.

He was also a famous person in Blue Thunder City, but now, he was ignored by a junior.

How could he not be furious?

As he roared, the [Raging Hell Claws] in his hand became incomparably huge.

The fanatical blood energy boiled on it and tore towards Zhou Han.

It was like the sharp claws of an Abyssal Blood Demon.

Even the air hissed as if it could not withstand this power.

"Brother Qinglong's combat technique has become even more violent. I remember that he tore a Diamond-grade Flame Qilin Earth Dragon apart previously."

"Good, that's great. We have to tear this kid apart! Mad, I suffered a lot just now. I was almost killed by that lightning!"

"This kid's strength is not bad, but under Brother Qinglong's violent attacks, he has no way to survive."

"This is the outcome of provoking our Azure Dragon Mercenary Group! The commander is invincible in close combat. No one can withstand a single claw strike from him!"

"I was sent flying by the kid previously. I'll skin him myself later!"

After seeing Yan Qinglong's attack, the lackeys recovered from their previous panic.

Unless their commander did not make a move, he would definitely succeed.

So they were filled with confidence.

"Die, boy! It's your honor to die under my famous skill!"

At this moment, the two claws became half a meter long.

The blood energy on them was even richer. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝗺

"Shadow Soul Spike!"

Zhou Han flipped his palm, and three black soul spikes floated in it.

Without any hesitation, he faced it head-on.

As for why he used the Shadow Soul Spike skill, first of all, this was good. In close combat, it was very close.

This strange attack was difficult to avoid.

The second was to farm proficiency and unlock the skill [Soul Catcher Wave] as soon as possible.

"Hmph! You overestimate yourself. How dare you block the sharp Raging Hell Claws?"

Yan Qinglong looked disdainful.

The Soul Spike was a soul attack, so he could not sense any energy fluctuations on it.

It looked ordinary, like ordinary iron.

He believed that in the face of his powerful blood power, such things would be destroyed instantly.

"Oh no, Yan Qinglong is already close. This is a very dangerous distance."

"I can't watch this. It's going to be tragic!"

Ads by Pubfuture

"After all, Yan Qinglong has been famous for a long time. No one can take advantage of him."

The people on Fat Tiger's side also looked nervous.

Zhou Han's attack just now had indeed shocked them greatly.

They also hoped that Zhou Han could kill Yan Qinglong.

But that was almost impossible.

Seeing Yan Qinglong's violent attack, he could not help but break out in cold sweat for Zhou Han.

"Boom…"

In a flash, it was only a few seconds.

A loud bang sounded. The blood energy collided violently a foot away from Zhou Han.

The next second, everyone was shocked.

Yan Qinglong's sharp claws were pierced through like paper.

To everyone's surprise, Zhou Han stood on the other side, unscathed and relaxed.

He did not seem to be using his full strength at all.

"What, you? What… what the hell is this?"

"How can it be so powerful?"

All three soul spikes were nailed to Yan Qinglong.

Blood flowed down his body, and there was a lot of sweat on his forehead.

He wasn't sure if it was pain or shock.

With just one attack, Yan Qinglong realized that he had already suffered quite a bit of injuries.

"Is this the Raging Hell Claws? Look at how much you're bragging. I'm already so awesome!"

Looking at the completely shattered Raging Hell Claws, the mockery in Zhou Han's eyes was obvious.

"What, this, this is impossible. How could Brother Qinglong lose?"

"He lost. He suffered a crushing defeat. He couldn't even withstand a single move!"

"Heavens, this young man is too terrifying! Yan Qinglong is twice his age, but he's no match for him at all!"

"What kind of existence has our Azure Dragon Mercenary Group provoked? If even Yan Qinglong is no match for them, wouldn't we…"

"Yan Qinglong is really a piece of trash. He's in his forties, but he can't even defeat a young man! I really regret joining the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group!"

"There's no way to run now. I don't want to die!"

When these lackeys saw Yan Qinglong's tragic state, their faces were full of disbelief.

But immediately, an atmosphere of despair spread.

They were probably doomed today.

Some of the lackeys had already cracked and were cursing.

"Brother, wait! Let's talk nicely!"

Seeing that Zhou Han was about to continue attacking, Yan Qinglong's eyes trembled and he hurriedly said.

"I was indeed wrong previously. I've offended you! I apologize to you here. I'll definitely give you a satisfying gift tomorrow! How about we become friends?"

It was obvious that he was admitting defeat. His eyes were filled with the desire to live.

He also promised a big gift, hoping to move Zhou Han.

There might be room for mitigation.

"Hehe, friend? Are you worthy? Do you know fear now?"

"Your head is my most satisfying gift!"

Zhou Han's eyes were cold and filled with killing intent.

Who knew if the other party would settle scores with him later?

Therefore, Zhou Han had to nip any threat in the bud.

Once he decided to attack, he had to kill.

"Is there really no room for reconciliation? Don't push people too far!"

Hearing the rejection, Yan Qinglong panicked and said fiercely,

He wanted to make one last struggle.

"You talk too much. Die!"

Zhou Han had no intention of paying attention. Golden sword aura shot out.

"Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

"You're forcing me!"

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to let him go, Yan Qinglong's words were cold.

His eyes flashed viciously as he quickly took a pill out of his bag.

The pill was filled with black fog and engraved with strange inscriptions.

Chapter 83: Beautiful Female Ghost, Evil Light Ghost God Slash

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yan Qinglong hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he steeled his heart and swallowed the pill.

There was endless madness in his eyes.

This was a Demon Transformation Pill.

It was obtained in a mystic realm and was his last trump card.

After using it, one could obtain the powerful bloodline power of the demons for a short period of time.

However, the side effects were extremely great. At best, one's thoughts would be messed up and their mind would be damaged.

In the worst case, his soul would be devoured and he would become a puppet of the demons.

But at this moment, he couldn't care less.

Ads by Pubfuture

Without using the Demon Transformation Pill, he would definitely die.

If he used it, he might be able to survive.

"You forced my hand. I'll drag you down with me even if I die!"

"Since you won't let me go, let's die together!"

The moment he swallowed the Demon Transformation Pill, Yan Qinglong's body swelled up.

Dense scales quickly covered his entire body,

His face became ferocious and bloodthirsty.

Her eyes became dark and empty, making it difficult to look at her.

"What, this is the aura of a demon?"

"What happened to Yan Qinglong?"

"It's the aura of a demon pill. Something very evil."

"I didn't expect Yan Qinglong to have a Demon Transformation Pill on him. Looks like it's going to be a life-and-death battle!"

"This power has increased several times in an instant!"

"Go, go now! Or we'll all die here!"

Fat Tiger and the team members had ugly expressions.

Initially, they were still immersed in the shock of Zhou Han defeating Yan Qinglong.

Now, such a change had suddenly happened!

Everyone from Blue Thunder City turned pale at the mention of demons.

Many people have seen the power of demons.

Now that they had seen it with their own eyes, how could they not be afraid?

Fat Tiger wanted to remind Zhou Han to pay attention to the danger and ask him to evacuate.

But it all happened in a flash. There was no time.

"Ah! I—I want blood. All of you have to die!"

At this moment, Yan Qinglong's intentions were already chaotic.

Only his bloodthirsty killing instinct remained.

The scales on his body were like living things.

They turned into a monster and opened a bloody mouth to bite Zhou Han!

"Oh no!"

"Something's going to happen!"

Fat Tiger and the others were so frightened that their throats were about to pop out.

However, Zhou Han was not afraid.

"A demon? I want to see if you can withstand my power."

He could test out the newly fused skill.

Who was more powerful, the ghosts or the demons?

"Evil Light Ghost God Slash!"

As the skill was activated, the space immediately became dark.

The wind came from nowhere, cold and biting.

A soft figure floated in the air.

Its entire body was covered in a thin layer of fog. It had a good figure, but its true appearance could not be seen.

"It's actually a female ghost? Could she be a ghost?"

Zhou Han guessed curiously in his mind.

At this moment, she spoke in a language that no one could understand.

It was a mixture of laughter and tears that made one shudder.

After saying that, countless ghosts appeared.

They all respected her and surrounded her.

Then, these ghosts turned into ghostly lights.

They flew towards the demonized Yan Qinglong.

"Roar! Get lost, damn you!"

A cold wind blew. Yan Qinglong let out an irritated roar.

"How dare you offend the dignity of our demon race? You— Ah!"

He wanted to expel these ghosts and realized that these ghosts were impossible to kill.

Soon, he could not resist and only produced tragic cries.

These ghosts were like hungry ghosts pouncing on food.

The hard scales on Yan Qinglong's body could not withstand a single blow.

They broke through the defense and began to bite.

Creak, creak!

The sound of chewing flesh made one's scalp tingle.

It seemed that the physical body of the demons was inexplicably attractive to these ghosts.

In just ten seconds, Yan Qinglong was completely eaten.

There was nothing left as if it had never been there.

"Oh my God! What the hell is this? This scene is too scary!"

"The demonized Yan Qinglong was instantly killed! He was eaten clean."

"Hiss! What kind of existence have we provoked? This thing is terrifying."

"Boohoo, we're doomed. They're flying towards us!"

"Kill me! I don't want to be gnawed by such a thing!"

When the remaining lackeys of the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group saw this scene, they were trembling with fear and crying uncontrollably.

Some people even wanted their companions to kill them first.

It was better than being eaten by these ghosts.

Not to mention them, but even Zhou Han's scalp went numb at this scene!

He did not expect the skill [Evil Light Ghost God Slash] to appear in such a manner.

Zhou Han remembered that the skill description was to charge up for 1 to 5 seconds and then deal damage to a single target.

Now he had summoned so many ghosts.

There was obviously a huge change.

Then the main reason for the change should be…

Zhou Han looked at the female ghost in the air. 𝚋𝚎𝚍n𝚘v𝚎𝚕.𝚗𝚎𝚝

At the same time, the female ghost seemed to have sensed something.

She turned around and looked at Zhou Han.

At this moment, the mist on her face did not dissipate much.

A beautiful face was revealed. Their eyes met.

She smiled evilly.

He didn't know what to make of it.

Zhou Han frowned. He had never seen such a face before.

Why did the other party seem to know him?

While he was thinking, he was woken by shouts around him.

At this moment, countless ghosts had already begun to bite those lackeys.

A cold wind swept past. There was no one in that realm anymore.

It was as if these people had never been here.

Then, the ghost shadow discovered Fat Tiger and the others.

With a sinister smile, he rushed over.

"Stop! Everyone stop!"

Seeing this, Zhou Han hurriedly stopped him.

Fat Tiger and the others had no grudge against him and even stood up for him.

Of course, Zhou Han would not sit by and watch.

However, these ghosts seemed to not have heard Zhou Han's orders at all.

They had no intention of stopping.

"Damn, this skill doesn't listen to my orders anymore?"

Zhou Han was also stunned.

This was the first time he had encountered it.

However, there was no time to think. Saving Fat Tiger and the others' lives was more important now.

Otherwise, there would be nothing left of them.

"Since you don't listen to orders, I'll destroy you all!"

Zhou Han's eyes narrowed. These ghosts were not easy to deal with.

He was about to activate the Myriad Swords Return when he heard the voice of the female ghost in the air.

Then the ghosts finally stopped moving,

Ads by Pubfuture

Finally, they retreated into the darkness.

Sure enough, these ghosts listened to the female ghost's orders.

This made Zhou Han, the user of the skill, feel a little unhappy.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

Zhou Han directly asked the question in his heart.

This female ghost clearly had her own consciousness.

He had to find out what the other party's intentions were and whether she was a friend or foe.

However, the female ghost did not speak, and he did not know if she was mute.

It could be that she still didn't understand human language, or didn't want to speak.

She smiled charmingly again in response.

Chapter 84: Lava Set Fragment

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Laugh? I'll laugh at your mother! F*ck!"

Seeing the female ghost's mysterious smile again, Zhou Han was furious and his temper exploded.

A sword aura was thrown over.

Before the sword aura could fly over, the female ghost had disappeared into space, as if it had disappeared.

The sword aura passed through the space without effect.

He waited for a long time, but the female ghost never appeared again.

Zhou Han guessed that the other party had completely left.

"Acting mysteriously? Just wait! "

Ads by Pubfuture

"After my strength increases, I'll definitely let you take maternity leave!"

Zhou Han shouted into the void to vent his displeasure.

But then he shook his head, amused.

The other party was indeed a female ghost. There was no need to pretend.

"I have to use this skill carefully in the future! Try not to use it if I can!" 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝙣𝙚𝙩

A gentleman would not put himself in danger unnecessarily.

This female ghost was powerful.

Until he figured out what she intended, Zhou Han would never let there be any potential risks around him.

"After the enhancement, the unknown and mysteries it brings are increasing."

From summoning a sword spirit like Ao Zhen to using a skill that summoned a powerful female ghost, Zhou Han could only sigh. The only SSS-rank talent in the universe was indeed powerful.

"This trip has been a huge loss. I can't see a single piece of equipment or anything!"

Zhou Han came to the place where Yan Qinglong died and checked.

There was really nothing. Even if he dropped equipment, they were also all devoured.

He wanted to see if his [Safety Talisman] had dropped.

Now, he could only give up in disappointment.

"It was useless. I didn't get anything."

Zhou Han shook his head with a bitter smile. He saw that Fat Tiger and the others were still trembling.

Their legs were too weak to move.

The countless ghosts had pounced just now.

They could feel death clearly.

They had almost died.

"Ah! Senior! Don't kill us. We shouldn't have underestimated you!"

"Spare our lives! I don't want to be eaten!"

"Senior, please show mercy! Our Mad Blood Mercenary Group never does anything outrageous! Please let us go!"

"I have a fragment of the Lava Set here. I'll hand it over!"

When these members of the Mad Blood Mercenary Group saw Zhou Han walking over, all of them were so nervous that they were about to cry.

The scene of thousands of ghosts biting at them had already frightened them silly.

There were so many people in the adventurer team, and they were eliminated just like that.

In their eyes, the current Zhou Han was even more evil and terrifying than the demons.

That was why he was lying on the ground begging for mercy.

"What are you doing? Did I say I wanted to kill you?"

"In any case, you've been kind enough to stand up for me. I'm not evil!"

Seeing this group of people begging for mercy, Zhou Han did not know whether to laugh or cry.

'I don't look like a bad guy with my delicate face.'

"Ah! We—"

"Senior, are you really going to let us go?"

"Thank you for not killing us, Senior!"

Hearing Zhou Han's words, they were obviously stunned.

Then, he did see no killing intent in the other party's eyes.

He heaved a sigh of relief.

"Alright, all of you, get up!"

"However, you just said that there are fragments of the Lava Set! I want all of these fragments!"

The Lava Set was Platinum-grade, one grade higher than the Gold-grade Ghost Set.

Zhou Han also planned to change to a more powerful set.

Coincidentally, the Lava Set could drop in the Thunder Ruins.

Zhou Han had dropped a fragment just now, but because the people from the Azure Dragon Mercenary Group came over to disturb him, he didn't have time to check.

"Senior, we have two fragments in total. Keep them well!"

Fat Tiger carefully handed over the fragment. There was still fear in his eyes.

He would never have thought that the young man he had seen a few hours ago was actually so powerful. Even some old antiques in Blue Thunder City could not be stronger than him!

What a joke. He kept persuading the other party to leave.

He thought the other party was a newbie.

Zhou Han did not stand on ceremony and directly took the fragment.

[You have obtained Lava Set Fragment X2. Do you want to check it?]

"Check!"

Zhou Han chanted in his heart.

[Lava Set Fragment: Collect 50 pieces and you can fuse them into a Platinum-grade Lava Set.]

"Does it need fifty fragments?"

Including the ones that had dropped previously, Zhou Han now had a total of three fragments.

This thing's drop rate was not high to begin with, and it still needed 50 fragments.

It was indeed a little difficult.

"I can only see the effect of the enhancement to decide."

Zhou Han was not confident either. He did not know what would happen after the enhancement.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han could not wait to try.

In the end, he realized that he could only enhance it five times. After all, it was only a fragment and the material was greatly limited.

[You have successfully enhanced it five times. Please check the attributes!]

After checking, Zhou Han was delighted.

Only four fragments were needed to fuse.

[Lava Set Fragment +5: Collect four pieces and you can fuse them into the Diamond-grade Red Lotus Set.]

Moreover, the quality of the fused set became Diamond.

It was quite impressive.

Now, all he had to do was to drop a fragment.

The difficulty was not very high, and Zhou Han was immediately excited.

"Very good. Consider this 2,000 gold coins my purchase!"

Zhou Han handed the gold coins to Fat Tiger.

He was not a man who took things by force.

Besides, 2,000 gold coins were nothing to him.

"This, Senior, this won't do. The market price is only 500 gold coins. You gave us quadruple the price!"

Fat Tiger's hands trembled as he spoke in fear and trepidation.

"Take it! More gold. Consider it payment for your kind reminder!"

Zhou Han said with a smile.

He ignored them and walked away.

"Brother Tiger, we made a killing this time! These materials are all gold coins!"

"I'm really lucky today to have encountered such an expert. These Blood Shadow Violent Bears have a lot of materials on them. I simply got lucky."

"Alright, Little Red, stop looking. He's far away. Such an outstanding man is not something you can have!"

"I—I—"

After Zhou Han left, everyone dared to discuss softly.

Fat Tiger patted the team member's shoulder in consolation.

For an expert like the other party, there would be more room for development. The future stage was the sea of stars.

Zhou Han walked deeper into the Thunder Ruins.

He destroyed many wild monster strongholds along the way.

He was getting closer and closer to the Evil Swordsman.

As the sword aura flickered, the huge Golden-Scaled Crocodile in front of him flew and exploded.

"Hmm? A Lava Set fragment finally dropped!"

Seeing the debris that appeared beside the body, Zhou Han was delighted.

He had killed countless demonic beasts, but none of them had dropped.

Just as Zhou Han was about to give up, he went out and directly dropped it.

Unexpectedly, it came out just like that.

Now that he had successfully gathered four pieces, the Diamond-grade Red Lotus Set was finally about to be gathered.

Zhou Han was also extremely excited and urgently wanted to check the attributes of the set.

Chapter 85: Red Lotus Set, Ranged Burning

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Without hesitation, Zhou Han immediately enhanced the fragments that dropped.

At this moment, all four fragments appeared in his hand.

They came together and formed a flame.

[Detected that you have fragments that can be fused. Do you want to fuse?]

"Fuse!"

After choosing to fuse, a red light flashed, like a dancing spark.

It slowly condensed into a set.

[The Red Lotus Set has been fused. Please check the attributes!]

Ads by Pubfuture

It was indeed Diamond-grade, and it had an area-burning effect.

Zhou Han only took a slight look and directly activated enhancement.

The enhanced attributes appeared.

[Red Lotus Set +7]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Attributes: +20,000 HP, +2,000 Attack, +1,000 Defense, +200 Movement Speed]

[Special Effect 1: All enemy units within a 30-meter radius will take (5% of your maximum HP) fire damage per second.]

[Special Effect 2: All attributes resistance increased by 100%, and fire resistance increased by 300%.]

[Special Effect 3: 50% probability of being immune to control. Restores 2% of your maximum HP every second.]

[Description: Condensing the essence of the Red Lotus Karma Fire and causing fire damage will have an additional bonus.]

'Awesome!'

His HP increased by 20,000, and his attack, defense, and movement speed also increased.

A diamond-grade set was awesome!

His attributes were all maxed out.

Special Effect 1 was a passive area-of-effect fire damage. As long as it was an enemy unit, anyone who entered within 30 meters would be attacked by the Fire Lotus Karma Fire for 5% of his total HP in fire damage per second.

All in all, Zhou Han's total HP was more than 60,000.

Then it would deal at least 3,000 fire damage per second, and it would be in a range.

If Zhou Han fought the Blood Shadow Raging Bear now, all he had to do was charge into the pack of bears, and they could be wiped out in two seconds.

Thinking about it, it was a little scary.

Special Effect 2 increased attribute resistance and gave more bonuses.

Special Effect 3 had an immunity control effect. A 50% chance was still very powerful.

Then there was a healing special effect. It was a percentage healing.

Although it looked worse than the previous fixed HP recovery, the higher the percentage, the stronger it became.

Looking at the [Red Lotus Set] in his hand, it exuded warmth.

Zhou Han immediately put it on. It was a very comfortable fabric and showed off his aura.

However, because it was red, the color was a little bright.

It was bright red and felt like an ancient wedding dress.

"Forget it! I'll make do. After all, the attributes are so good!"

Zhou Han rarely wore colorful clothes, so he could only comfort himself.

"Moo…"

Suddenly, a few demonic beasts appeared out of nowhere. They looked like cows.

They directly attacked Zhou Han.

After appraising them, he discovered that these demonic beasts were called [Water Moon Bulls]. Their HP was only about 7,000.

This kind of demonic beast was very sensitive to red things and flames. It could not help but attack.

"I see!"

Zhou Han found it a little funny.

"But it's good that you're here. Let me test the strength of the Red Lotus Set!"

Soon, a few Water Moon Bulls ran over and were within 30 meters of Zhou Han.

–4,249

-4,328

-4,311

Sure enough, strings of numbers floated past their heads.

Flames burned through them, giving off the aroma of beef.

"Hmm? More than 4,000 damage?"

"It should be the Red Lotus Karma Fire. Extra fire damage!"

Seeing the damage value, something was wrong, but then he thought of the Red Lotus Fire.

That explained it.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Take off! How f*cking awesome!"

Two seconds later, all the Water Moon Bulls fell.

Zhou Han cheered.

This efficiency in killing monsters was definitely amazing!

After filling his stomach with two whole pieces of beef, Zhou Han continued to fight.

Although it was called fighting, it was actually running non-stop.

Wherever it passed, the demonic beasts fell to the ground.

Ordinary ones could be resolved in two seconds.

Some demonic beasts with fire resistance could only last three seconds.

Towards the end, many demonic beasts saw Zhou Han coming from afar.

They all fled, their eyes filled with fear.

If they could speak, they would probably be cursing.

'Damn it, you're already so strong, but you still came to such a place to bully us?'

Did he have no shame? He did not have the demeanor of an expert at all!

Seeing the demonic beasts escape, Zhou Han did not pursue them.

After all, his ultimate goal was to kill the Evil Swordsman.

Hunting would take too much time.

Along the way, Zhou Han finally arrived at the location of the Evil Swordsman.

The deepest part of the Thunder Ruins—the Bone Cave.

The cave in front of him was dark and eerie. White bones could be vaguely seen inside.

Zhou Han was not afraid. Without hesitation, he walked in.

Creak, creak, creak…

It was the sound of bones being crushed.

When Zhou Han walked more than ten meters away, suddenly, these bones seemed to have been resurrected.

They were all beaten up and turned into skeletons. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝘦𝘵

It was very dense in all directions, like a sea of skeletons.

The number was very terrifying and had already surrounded Zhou Han.

"Weak human, this is the territory of the White Bone Race!"

"You've trespassed into my territory. Prepare to be judged by death!"

Suddenly a sinister voice came closer.

Zhou Han's eyes narrowed as he saw a huge skeleton.

It walked over slowly.

It was very showily wearing a purple-and-gold cloak and a crown on its head.

It was all so incongruous.

Zhou Han used Appraisal and the other party's attributes were clearly displayed.

[Demonkin—Skeleton King]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Level: Level 70]

[Health: 32,000]

[Attack: 6,000]

[Defense: 3,300]

[Skill 1: Skeleton Summoning (As long as there are bones, it can constantly summon skeleton soldiers)]

[Skill 2: Total Defense (Tempered bones, become harder, obtain 30% damage reduction)]

[Skill 3: Demonkin Inheritance (As a demonkin, the White Bone Race can obtain the power of the demon inheritance and increase all attributes by 200% for a short period of time)]

[Description: Good at human wave tactics. Recommended to open up space in battle and not fall into the other party's encirclement. Weakness: Fire Element, Light Element.]

"So we're in the territory of the White Bone Race. No wonder there are so many skeletons!"

After reading it, Zhou Han also understood.

Ads by Pubfuture

Clearly, these skeletons were summoned by the Skeleton King.

There were a lot of them. If an ordinary person wanted to kill them, it must be very difficult. No wonder many people in Blue Thunder City were afraid of these demonkin.

This kind of crowd tactic was indeed a little terrifying. Once they were surrounded by skeletons, basically, they could not be spared.

However, this was only for others.

This was nothing to Zhou Han!

"Human wave tactics?"

Zhou Han smiled.

Perhaps it had been useful before.

Zhou Han, who was wearing the Red Lotus Set, was least afraid of numbers.

The more the merrier!

Chapter 86: Soaring Experience, Skeleton King

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"These are all experience points!"

Zhou Han's eyes were filled with passion.

With the five times experience buff, he could at least level up four or five times in this wave.

It was awesome to think about.

There were no other places where there were so many wild monsters.

"Come! Please judge me by death!"

"I can't wait!"

Zhou Han's eyes were filled with sincerity as he urged the Skeleton King.

Ads by Pubfuture

Without its order, these skeletons only surrounded Zhou Han from afar.

They did not attack. They were still thirty meters away.

"You? Do you want to die that badly?"

Zhou Han's words clearly stunned the Skeleton King.

The green fire in its head flickered in confusion.

"Good. Then I'll grant your wish and bury you here forever as a new skeleton!"

In the end, it gave the order. The dignity of the demonkin could not be blasphemed.

Humans were only lowly existences in their eyes.

How could a lowly worm cause any trouble?

"Children, kill this damned human. Remember not to damage his bones!"

As soon as it finished speaking, thousands of skeleton soldiers moved.

They moved a little slowly, making Zhou Han a little anxious.

He was worried that the Skeleton King would discover the flaw and take all these skeleton soldiers away.

After all, demonkin were as intelligent as humans.

In that case, the experience points he obtained would fly away.

Therefore, Zhou Han deliberately turned off the passive burning effect of the Red Lotus Set.

Finally, the skeleton soldiers came closer.

30 meters…

20 meters…

10 meters…

5 meters…

It was at this moment that Zhou Han directly activated the burning effect.

At this moment, the Skeleton King was filled with confidence.

The green fire in its skull was very strong, representing its inner joy.

It was originally worried that the human in front of it would have some methods.

However, the skeleton soldiers were already within five meters.

There were dozens of layers inside and out. It was already too late.

There was no way to escape.

"Hmph! This is the outcome of provoking my White Bone Race. Lowly human worm, you're simply courting death!" The Skeleton King sneered inwardly.

But before it could be smug for long, it was dumbfounded.

The green fire in its skull was beating quickly,

It meant that it was very shocked.

-9,345

-10,565

-9,632

The moment Zhou Han activated the burning effect, a large number of damage values floated out around him.

Within a 30-meter radius, the area was about 2,800 square meters.

Because these skeleton soldiers stood more densely, therefore, more than 2,000 skeletons fell in an instant.

Even the bones were melted.

One could see the terrifying temperature of the Red Lotus Karma Fire.

"Not bad, not bad. The damage is almost ten thousand!"

This was because fire attribute attacks were equivalent to weak points to skeleton soldiers.

The damage caused by restraining them would definitely increase greatly.

The skeleton soldiers with more than 8,000 HP could not last a second and were instantly burned to death.

"What? What—what kind of method is this?"

The Skeleton King was so shocked that it stammered.

This was the first time it had encountered such a situation.

In the past, when it summoned skeleton soldiers, the enemy would either be killed by the crowd or flee.

It worked every time and never failed, It had obviously hit a brick wall this time!

"No, I have to recall the skeleton soldiers. This will only increase the casualties!"

The Skeleton King was not stupid and quickly reacted.

Now, the skeleton soldiers could not pose a threat to Zhou Han at all.

Looking at the fused skeleton, its heart ached.

It had to be known that collecting these skeletons was very time-consuming.

At this moment, Zhou Han was like a wolf entering a flock of sheep.

He harvested wantonly.

[You have successfully reached Level 28. Please check your attributes!]

[You have successfully reached Level 29. Please check your attributes!]

Hearing the system notification, his level quickly increased.

Zhou Han did not have time to check.

He had to hurry up and harvest.

This was all experience!

A minute later.

"Hmm? They were all recalled?"

Zhou Han was in a good mood.

Seeing the rest of the skeleton soldiers disappear, he frowned at the Skeleton King, his eyes filled with displeasure.

"Hey, Big Skeleton, hurry up and summon the skeleton soldiers, or I'll be angry!"

"Be good and I'll consider letting you off!"

Zhou Han walked over with a dark expression and an unfriendly tone.

In any case, the final goal this time was not the Skeleton King, but the Evil Swordsman.

As long as he obtained experience, everything would be fine.

As for letting the Skeleton King go, it didn't matter.

"How dare you! Lowly human, do you know who you're talking to?"

The Skeleton King had also recovered from its shock.

With the usual arrogance of the demons, as an elite of the White Bone Race, it had some methods.

Therefore, it was confident and not afraid of Zhou Han.

"I'm a noble demonkin. I—"

The Skeleton King was about to continue when its expression changed.

It felt a violent sword aura and was so frightened that its words froze.

"You only have one chance. Since you don't agree!"

"Then go to hell!"

Seeing that the other party had no intention of agreeing, Zhou Han could not be bothered to waste time.

He did not say much and directly used [Sword Aura Storm].

As Zhou Han's attack power increased, the power of the storm became more and more violent.

"In the name of the demonkin, activate the power of the inheritance!"

"Total Defense!"

The Skeleton King immediately adjusted itself to its best state.

It also used all its skills.

The sharp sword aura in front of it made it feel the threat of death.

It was too fast to dodge and could only defend with all its might.

"Boom!"

-150,000

The damage values floated past, accompanied by a huge collision.

A huge crack appeared on the Skeleton King's body.

Clearly, its defense was inferior to Zhou Han's Sword Aura Storm.

It was useless and could not withstand a single blow.

"This—this is impossible. When did the human race have such a powerful existence?"

The Skeleton King looked at the cracks on its body and gradually widened.

Its entire body fell apart inch by inch, its heart filled with fear and despair.

"I—I'm so regretful! I should have agreed to his request!"

It was its last thought before its body turned to dust. It was filled with endless regret.

And there was a flash at the place where the Skeleton King had died.

A book fell.

"It should have dropped a skill cultivation technique. Coincidentally, I'm short of skills now. I came at the right time!"

Because the Evil Light Ghost God Slash might summon a female ghost, Zhou Han did not plan to use it for the time being.

Ads by Pubfuture

He still lacked skills.

[You have obtained a skill book. Do you want to check it?]

Zhou Han acutely noticed that the system notification was a skill book and not a cultivation technique.

He chose to check.

As expected, there was only one skill. It was not like a cultivation technique manual where there were multiple skills to unlock.

"It's good enough to have skills. I can't be too greedy!"

Zhou Han comforted himself.

The skill was called [Unyielding Battle Soul].

"It should be a defensive skill!"

He guessed and read on.

Chapter 87: Unyielding Battle Soul, Growth Skill

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

[Unyielding Battle Soul]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Category: Growth]

[Growth: After suffering a total of 1 million points of damage, it can advance to a higher quality, up to the Starlight-grade.]

[Description: Possessed by a War Soul and has an unyielding will.]

[Effect: Increases attack power by 40%, and defense by 60%.]

"Huh! It's actually a growth-type skill!"

This was the first time Zhou Han had seen such a skill.

Ads by Pubfuture

As long as he endured the damage, it could advance to a higher level.

It was already very impressive to be able to reach the Starlight-grade.

However, the current effect was a little tragic.

Only 40% attack power and 60% defense.

It was indeed a little shabby.

However, there were not many skills that increased defense and attack at the same time.

If it advanced to the Starlight-grade, the effect should be stronger!

Zhou Han could not be bothered to think too much and directly activated enhancement.

"Enhance it six times!"

[You successfully enhanced it six times.]

[New attributes have been generated. Please check!]

After clicking on it, the attributes were obvious.

[Unyielding Battle Soul +6]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Category: Growth]

[Growth: After suffering 10 million points of damage, it can advance to a higher quality, up to the King-grade.]

[Description: Battle Soul Possession, making the soul stronger and possessing unyielding faith and will.]

[Effect: Increases attack power by 200%, and defense by 300%.]

After reading it, Zhou Han nodded in satisfaction.

Not only did it increase soul willpower, but the buff effect was also obvious.

The current Zhou Han would be even more terrifying!

Although it could grow to the King-grade, he had to withstand 10 million points of damage.

This value was a little terrifying.

Of course, there was a way to cheat. It was to find someone to farm damage.

Moreover, he had to find those with strong combat strength.

This would cost a lot of money, and others might not have time to do such boring things.

"Let's take it one step at a time! Anyway, the upgrade of skills is not very urgent now!"

Zhou Han remembered this thought.

When he returned to the Sword God Hall, he would find Sword King Nie Tianchen.

He might have a way.

But for now, he had to put all that aside.

Now that they had reached the deepest part of the Bone Cave, according to the map, the Evil Swordsman should be here.

However, the other party did not appear for a long time.

He had caused such a huge commotion when he fought the Skeleton King just now.

It was impossible for the other party not to know.

Then there was only one possibility. The other party was hiding.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han was about to use the [Aura Sensing] skill.

He sensed the other party's aura.

Suddenly, there was a movement in the air.

Zhou Han felt a cold sword aura, like a poisonous snake striking a fatal blow.

It attacked him silently.

Although it was not loud, it was powerful.

This move alone showed the exquisiteness of the other party's sword technique.

Then the other party's identity was self-evident.

After activating Appraisal, just as Zhou Han had expected.

[Evil Swordsman]

[Level: 75]

[Life: 36,600]

[Attack: 7,200]

[Defense: 2,950]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Weapon: Evil Spirit Sword]

[Equipment: Shadow Set]

[Accessory: Concealment Ring]

[Cultivation Technique: Evil Soul Sword Technique]

The Evil Swordsman had reached Level 75, and his various attributes were relatively powerful.

In the end, Zhou Han also understood.

Because the other party had the Shadow Set and the Concealment Ring, these two things had the attributes of stealth and concealment.

No wonder he had the ability to defect from the Sword God Hall and not be caught after so many years.

Naturally, there was his residence.

"You're actually ambushing me?"

Although the other party's attributes were powerful, they were still inferior to Zhou Han.

Moreover, the other party's skill damage was on a completely different level from his.

Therefore, this did not pose any threat to Zhou Han.

"Today, in the name of the Sword God Hall, I'm here to take your head!"

In the face of absolute power, all evil was nothing.

Zhou Han's expression did not change as he took out the Golden Snake Sword.

Golden sword aura soared into the sky and directly dispersed the other party's skill.

"Hehe, you're indeed someone sent by the Sword God Hall!"

"Those old guys really don't give up! They have to kill me."

The Evil Swordsman's hoarse voice came, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.

He quickly determined from Zhou Han's words that he was from the Sword God Hall.

He had also guessed the other party's intentions.

"They sent a young man to kill me? Those old things are so bold!"

"When I was invincible, you were still drinking milk!"

"Watch my Evil Soul Sword Technique. Die!"

Although the Evil Swordsman said so, his eyes flashed with seriousness.

Just now, he had personally seen Zhou Han instantly kill the Skeleton King.

Although he could not do it so cleanly, he was confident that they would not be too far apart.

That was why he used a sneak attack to severely injure Zhou Han.

In that case, he would have the upper hand.

In the end, he did not expect the other party to be so powerful. It was simply beyond his imagination.

Therefore, he kept saying arrogant words as he thought of a way to escape.

As the Evil Swordsman's skill was released, a translucent evil soul formed in the black sword aura.

It opened its cold eyes and immediately emitted a few soul threads.

It wanted to wrap around Zhou Han's soul and absorb his soul power.

"Heh, an evil soul? Try my Shadow Soul Spike!"

The three soul spikes instantly flew away.

The evil soul didn't even have time to react before it was stabbed.

"Ah! Ah…"

A miserable cry floated through the empty cave. It was a heart-wrenching pain.

The translucent evil soul suddenly became transparent.

It seemed to be dissipating into the air at any moment.

"Ouch! It hurts!"

The evil soul seemed to be related to the Evil Swordsman. He could also feel intense pain.

At this moment, Zhou Han's golden sword aura swept over again.

-31,569

The Evil Swordsman's body was sent flying and embedded in the stone wall.

He only had slightly more than 5,000 HP left.

He didn't dare move. He couldn't even breathe or beat his heart.

He did not dare to move at all and entered a state of suspended animation.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Hehe, still trying to play dead?"

"I'm going to take your head! There's no use pretending to be dead!"

Zhou Han saw through the other party's trick at a glance.

Not to mention that Zhou Han could see the number of enemies, even if the other party was really dead, he had to take his head.

This was because the requirements of the Awakening Mission 5 were like this.

"Are you really going to be ruthless?"

"Don't you want to know the secrets of the Sword God Hall and why they're chasing me?"

The Evil Swordsman panicked when he saw that he had been seen through.

As his thoughts raced, he immediately said.

He tried to attract Zhou Han's attention and look for a chance to get away.

Chapter 88: Wind Flight, New Skill

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Don't try to distract me. You have to die today. I said so!"

This concerned his awakening.

Moreover, he was not interested in these secrets at all.

'Also, who knows if he's making things up.'

Zhou Han could not be bothered to waste his breath.

He always knew that villains died because they talked too much.

Therefore, he would not be like the villain who was full of nonsense.

Create some opportunities for his opponent.

Ads by Pubfuture

As expected, the Evil Swordsman did not fall into Zhou Han's trap.

His heart immediately fell to rock bottom.

This was not the temperament of a young man at all.

"Shadow Escape!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned into a ghostly light.

It instantly obtained explosive speed.

They saw an afterimage as he rushed out of the cave.

Clearly, the Phantom Swordsman had no intention of surrendering.

He directly used the escape method he was best at.

He originally wanted to use an escape technique while Zhou Han was distracted.

This way, the chances of escaping would be higher.

But now, there was no choice but to use it forcefully.

"You're no match for my speed!"

With the agility bonus of the [Lightness Ring] and the movement speed of the [Red Lotus Set], in terms of speed, Zhou Han had yet to meet a match.

Zhou Han exerted strength in his legs and chased after her.

"This escape technique is indeed not bad. I can instantly obtain three times the speed that slowly decreases as time passes."

The moment the Evil Swordsman activated his escape technique, even Zhou Han could not catch up.

After all, Zhou Han did not have a speed cultivation technique.

This skill clearly did not last long enough.

Soon, Zhou Han caught up and ended his life.

Before the Evil Swordsman died, there was still shock in his eyes.

This speed completely crushed him. He did not expect such a genius to appear in the Sword God Hall.

He was really unlucky!

After being on the run for so many years, it was still difficult to escape.

Without wasting much time, Zhou Han took off the head of the Evil Swordsman.

This was a necessary item to complete the awakening mission.

"Hmm? Three things fell. I wonder what quality they are."

Zhou Han waved his hand and a majestic force rolled them up and sent them to Zhou Han.

The first item was the [Heavenly Essence Pill], a Diamond-grade item.

After enhancement, the attributes were displayed.

[Heavenly Essence Pill +7]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Description: Refined from the essence of heaven and earth, it contains powerful strength.]

[Effect: Increases attack by 1,000 points. Soul strength becomes stronger.]

[Description: Limited to five pills. Further use will be invalid.]

It could increase attack power and nourish the soul.

Zhou Han did not hesitate and swallowed it.

A purple aura flowed through his body for more than ten seconds.

Exhaling, the effect of the increase in combat strength was obvious.

He continued to look at the second item.

[Star Feather Fan]

[Grade: Starlight]

[Attributes: Attack+800, Basic Attack Stun Rate+10%]

[Special Effect: Summon the light of the stars and attack all enemy units within a 30-meter radius.]

[Description: Contains the mysteries of the starry sky. It has a stun effect and is very powerful.]

[Description: Limited to Star Warlock and Enchanter classes.]

It was a Starlight-grade weapon with a stun attribute. It was indeed very powerful.

However, Zhou Han's Sword Soul class could not use it.

He shook his head and threw it into his bag.

Zhou Han looked at the last item. It was a skill book.

"Could it be the Shadow Escape technique?"

His eyes lit up and his breathing quickened.

If he had such a skill, Zhou Han would be like a tiger with wings.

He was already extremely fast. If he had that, the speed would be unbelievable.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han hurriedly checked.

The skill book had two words: [Wind Steps].

"Hmm? It's actually not the Shadow Escape. I was happy for nothing!"

Zhou Han immediately felt a little bored and disappointed but he endured and read on.

[Wind Steps]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Type: Movement Technique]

[Description: Use the power of the wind to complete various movements.]

[Effect: Increases Evasion by 10%, Agility by 5%.]

After reading it, Zhou Han understood that it was a movement skill.

It relied on the power of the wind to complete its coquettish movements.

He could dodge his opponent's attacks and skills.

"It doesn't feel very useful. Let's just fuse it!"

Zhou Han did not need to move at all.

He had the damage reflection skill [Sky Dust Tyrant Blood].

What was the use of dodging?

Since it didn't have value, he would try to combine it.

Although the skills after synthesis were also random, at the very least, it could increase by one level and reach the Starlight-grade.

The effect would also be a little stronger.

Zhou Han directly combined [Levitation] and [Wind Thunder Dance] with [Wind Steps].

[Synthesis successful. A new skill has been generated. Please check!]

"I hope there's a powerful skill!"

[Wind Chasing Thunder]

[Grade: Starlight]

[Category: Comprehensive]

[Description: Use the wind and lightning elements to attack the enemy.]

[Effect: Increases agility by 15% and deals 6 times the damage.]

The effect was not bad. It could increase agility and cause damage.

After enhancement, the effect would definitely be even stronger.

Seeing this, Zhou Han did not hesitate and directly activated enhancement.

"Enhance it eight times!"

[Enhancement successful. Please check the attributes!]

After Zhou Han opened it, a new attribute appeared.

[Wind Chasing Thunder +8]

[Grade: Starlight]

[Category: Comprehensive]

[Description: Familiar with the wind and lightning elements and can nimbly use them to deal with enemies.]

[Effect 1: Riding the wind, increase Agility by 100% and decrease target's Agility by 30%.]

[Effect 2: Lightning Strike, deal 20 times the damage to all targets within a 10-meter radius.]

As expected, after enhancement, Starlight-grade skills could surpass Divine-grade skills.

Previously, it had only used wind and lightning elements. Now, it could control them skillfully and flexibly.

Although it was only a few words, there was an insurmountable gap.

This was the difference between a newbie and a grandmaster.

After calming down, Zhou Han continued reading.

"What? Riding the wind?"

"I'm really taking off!"

Without looking at the second effect, Zhou Han decided to try it immediately.

Excited hearts, trembling hands.

Who did not want to have the ability to fly? Zhou Han was no exception.

Ads by Pubfuture

Previously, he had the [Levitation] skill, but he could only stay 10 meters in the air.

To be honest, this height was not very exciting.

He wondered if this ability to ride the wind was stronger than the superficial floating skill.

However, he would only know if he tried.

[New skill detected. Do you want to learn it?]

After confirming, the skill book turned into a green and purple light.

He could feel the weightlessness of the wind and the sharpness of lightning.

They fused into Zhou Han's body.

A few minutes later, Zhou Han finally adapted to this power.

There were also many understandings of wind and lightning in his mind.

Chapter 89: Successful Flight, Commotion in the City

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han immediately went from a newbie to an Elemental Grandmaster.

"Wind, please listen to my call!"

As Zhou Han shouted, a ball of green energy appeared.

Then, as he waved it, a large number of wind elements wrapped around his body, his clothes fluttering.

"Wind Flight!"

Under Zhou Han's control, the huge wind lifted him up.

The higher he went, the smaller the landscape became, Zhou Han did not know how high it was, but it was still a few hundred meters high.

"Woah, I'm taking off!"

Ads by Pubfuture

Under his constant proficient control, Zhou Han quickly grasped the key to flying.

He tried flying straight, backward, sideways, and even in an S-shape.

This felt too good.

"I will be as free as I fly, as far as the earth…"

Zhou Han sang loudly in the sky. Just as he was flying happily, suddenly a flock of large birds darted out and attacked him.

"Hmm? There are still demonic beasts in the sky?"

"Do you think my singing is bad? You actually took the initiative to attack me?"

Although it was an unexpected situation, Zhou Han was not nervous.

She was just a little unhappy that her singing had been interrupted.

This flock of birds was huge, several times larger than an ordinary golden eagle.

Their eyes were red and their huge beak was covered in spikes.

Zhou Han, who had barged into their territory, sent an attack.

He directly used Appraisal to check their attributes.

[Cloud Kite]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Level: 64]

[Health: 8,000]

[Attack: 3,500]

[Defense: 1,900]

[Skill 1: Explosive Red Light (Two beams of light filled with destructive power shoot out from the eyes, causing a lot of damage to the target)]

[Skill 2: Cloud Ride (Travel through clouds and mist, greatly increase agility and evasion)]

[Description: An agile demonic beast that is good at fire and wind. It is extremely territorial. Weakness: Water and Earth elements.]

"How dare you provoke me with such trashy attributes?"

Zhou Han found it a little funny.

Did they really think they were the overlord of the sky?

Ignorant!

"Lightning Technique, the power of lightning, release your unstoppable power!"

As Zhou Han spoke, the lightning elements in the air were mobilized directly.

A barrier of lightning formed ten meters around him.

There were terrifying electric arcs in the barrier, constantly swimming inside.

There was a crackling sound.

"I'm afraid this voltage is not simple. I just don't know how many volts there are!"

Zhou Han was also shocked when he saw this scene.

As expected, the power of lightning was invincible!

Each element has its own uniqueness, but lightning, fire, and light were recognized as the fiercest elements.

These [Cloud Kites] could not see the situation in the barrier.

One by one, they rushed into the lightning barrier like moths to a flame.

"Pfff…"

"Pfff…"

"Pfff…"

The sound of burning kept coming.

Scattered feathers fluttered everywhere. It was a different kind of poignant beauty.

As long as they entered the barrier, they would immediately be killed by the terrifying electric arcs.

Many [Cloud Kites] discovered something amiss, but they were charging too quickly.

It wasn't that easy to change direction.

Therefore, in ten seconds, they were wiped out.

"Sigh! What a sin! You asked for it!"

However, Zhou Han did not look sad. He quickly counted his gains.

In the end, nothing dropped except a pile of feathers and more than 2,000 gold coins.

This, of course, was only a brief interlude in the flight, now, the Awakening Mission 5 had been completed.

He could not wait to return to the Sword God Hall.

He would complete his first awakening.

On the way, other than encountering a wave of Demon-Winged Flying Tigers, he encountered no other obstruction.

"Flying is indeed fast!"

In ten minutes, he reached the exit of the Thunder Ruins.

It would take at least an hour by walking.

Zhou Han had already mastered and loved the feeling of flying.

Not only did it feel free, but it also saved time.

After entering Blue Thunder City, Zhou Han did not hide anything and flew straight to the Sword God Hall.

The power of the wind whistled past, and many residents of Blue Thunder City were shocked.

They looked up and saw Zhou Han flying, their eyes shining with extreme shock.

They had seen many foreign races who could fly, but humans who could fly were rare in their impression.

It immediately caused a huge discussion. Everyone stopped and watched.

"Look! There's someone flying? Oh my God, am I seeing things?"

"Who is this person? Is he a god? This is the first time I've seen someone fly!"

"I've only heard that such a peerless expert has the ability to fly. I didn't expect him to be so young!"

"I'm so envious! I want to become a strong person and travel the world. It's so handsome!"

"When did such a young talent appear in Blue Thunder City?"

Everyone looked up at Zhou Han's departing figure with surprise and confusion.

But they were more envious.

This news spread like wildfire and became the hottest topic in Blue Thunder City today.

At this moment, in the City Lord Manor, City Lord Bai Wuhen narrowed his eyes with some fear.

As the lord of a city, the city was filled with his people, so the guards naturally reported such sensational news to him immediately.

"Flying in the air?"

Bai Wuhen muttered to himself thoughtfully.

One had to know that even with his current strength, he could not fly.

How strong was the other party?

"No! There's another possibility. The other party has a special flying secret technique!"

After hearing the guard's report, he was a little nervous.

Now that he had recovered, Bai Wuhen immediately thought of another possibility.

"Did you see his exact appearance?"

Bai Wuhen tapped his fingers on the table and thought for a moment before asking.

He had to find out the other party's goal and true strength.

"City Lord, we were too far away to see this person's face clearly!"

"Get everyone moving. Keep searching for information. Report to me as soon as you hear anything!"

He stood up and gave the order directly.

This concerned his rule and the stability of his territory.

"No!"

His eyes were cold as he watched the guard leave.

He would not allow any instability in his territory.

"I hope it's not the worst!"

At this moment, there was also a discussion in the God Slaying Hall.

[Zhang Deshuai: Damn, I just saw someone flying over my head in Blue Thunder City! ZhouHan]

[Dai Mei: Zhou Han, Brother Han, did you see that? He really knows how to fly. It's a hot topic in the city now!]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Yang Mi: He's handsome, but he's a little worse than Brother Han.]

[Gou Tuo: Many soldiers in the city are searching for news about the person who flew in the air.]

[Park: Are you serious? You're just bragging!]

[Kim: If he can really fly, how strong must he be?! Anyway, I don't believe in it!]

[Wang Shuai: Are you up to no good again? Be careful, I'll report you to the group leader.]

With Wang Shuai's words, these guys from the Kimchi Kingdom trembled.

They immediately fell silent.

It was obvious that they had been intimidated by Zhou Han.

They were now so poor that they could not afford food.

They could not even pay 1,000 gold coins now if Zhou Han debuffed them again.

Chapter 90: Beginning to Awaken, Fusion with the Awakening Bead

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Hmm? Someone called me?"

Feeling the consecutive notifications, Zhou Han opened the unread messages.

After reading it, he was speechless.

He just wanted to rush to the Sword God Hall to complete his awakening, so he did not think too much about it.

Therefore, he used flight.

"I didn't expect to cause such a commotion by accident!"

"I have to keep a low profile in the future! I can't be reckless!"

After all, this was the Godfiend Continent. Gods lived in the sky.

Ads by Pubfuture

There were countless demons under the abyss.

If he stood out too much, he might be noticed by these powerful existences.

After reading the message, Zhou Han immediately landed.

Anyway, the Sword God Hall was already in front of him.

"Look, isn't that Brother Han?"

"He should be doing an awakening mission now. Why is he here?"

"Brother Han, are you here to find the 'bad woman'?"

"I really envy Brother Han's methods of picking up girls!"

Zhou Han entered the Sword God Hall and was quickly noticed.

He was much more popular in the Sword God Hall than in Blue Thunder City.

Not only was he the Number One Prodigy, but he had also subdued Wan Yuhe last night.

It instantly made him famous.

When they met a few people, they all gave Zhou Han a thumbs up.

They flashed a smile that all men knew.

However, Zhou Han could not be bothered with them. Now, he only wanted to awaken as soon as possible.

"Hmm? Zhou Han? Didn't you go on a mission today?"

"Do you need any help coming over now?"

He happened to meet the Sword King, Nie Tianchen.

At this moment, he saw Zhou Han and asked in surprise.

"I've already completed the awakening mission."

"I'm here to hand in my mission!" Zhou Han said with a calm expression.

"Mission accomplished? That can't be!"

"It hasn't even been half a day! How can it be so fast?"

Nie Tianchen was bewildered.

It was not that he did not believe Zhou Han.

He knew that Zhou Han was the Number One Prodigy of the Sword God Hall, but this represented his talent.

His future potential was huge, but it did not mean that his current strength was necessarily strong!

After all, he was a young man and needed room to grow.

In the Thunder Ruins, there were many Platinum and Diamond-grade demonic beasts.

In his impression, not to mention killing the Evil Swordsman, even if he successfully entered the deepest part of the ruins, it would be very difficult.

Hearing Nie Tianchen's words, Zhou Han only smiled and was not angry.

He took out the head of the Evil Swordsman and handed it over!

"No, see for yourself!"

"Hiss… this, this…"

"Oh my God! You really did it!"

As an NPC, Nie Tianchen naturally recognized this mission item.

At this moment, he was so surprised that he could not even speak.

"Master Nie, let's go and see Elder Lin!"

Zhou Han patted Nie Tianchen's shoulder, waking him from his shock.

"Oh! Oh… go, go, go!"

Nie Tianchen also reacted and looked at Zhou Han with increasing joy!

What a pity. Why didn't he have a daughter?

'Why don't I go back and work overtime with my wife tonight and make one?'

Anyway, he just had to wait 18 years.

The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

"Zhou Han! You're really my benefactor!"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Because of you, the higher-ups clearly value me now, and there are clearly more resources."

Nie Tianchen hugged Zhou Han's shoulder and said emotionally as they walked.

"Master Nie, what are you saying? We're all helping each other! It's all for the development of the Sword God Hall!"

Facing the other party's affectionate actions and fiery gaze, it made Zhou Han a little uncomfortable. He could only spout nonsense.

The two of them chatted casually.

Zhou Han's understanding of the Sword God Hall also deepened.

This was perfect. With the [Visualization Token +10], he could freely enter and exit all areas.

If he learned enough, at least he wouldn't enter certain forbidden areas.

Soon, the two of them found Elder Lin. He was dealing with matters in the Awakening Hall.

When he saw Zhou Han, he was a little surprised.

However, when he saw the head of the Evil Swordsman, his pupils constricted.

Clearly, Zhou Han had completed the mission!

After all, he was in a high position. After a short shock, he quickly recovered.

"Zhou Han! You really surprised me too much!"

Elder Lin said kindly as he held Zhou Han's hand.

According to his estimation, this kid should spend at least a day and a half to two days to complete the mission.

Now, it had only taken half a day. It was completely beyond his imagination.

[You have successfully completed the Awakening Mission 5 and obtained 2,000 soul crystals.]

[Due to your outstanding performance, you are rewarded with an additional 50,000 soul crystals.]

Soon, there was a notification that the mission had been completed.

He obtained another 50,000 soul crystals.

"Elder Lin, when will the awakening begin?"

Seeing that there was no notification from the system, Zhou Han asked.

"We can start now. This is an Awakening Bead. Take it!"

In Elder Lin's hand was a glass bead that emitted a rainbow light.

There were all kinds of energy fluctuations and attributes on it. It was simply all-encompassing.

With just one glance, he attracted Zhou Han's attention.

[Awakening Bead—First: After fusing with a cultivator's body, it will bring a powerful perception and help the cultivator awaken a powerful class. Limited to the first awakening. Specialized by sword cultivators.]

Zhou Han was about to reach out and catch it.

"Forget it! This Awakening Bead consumes too much soul power. Let me help you fuse it!"

Elder Lin smiled. Only the Number One Prodigy had the right to ask him to personally help with the fusion.

He wouldn't have bothered with anyone else.

"No…"

A gentle force wrapped around the Awakening Bead and entered Zhou Han's forehead.

Zhou Han was about to refuse and say that he would do it himself.

But it was too fast to say.

"I haven't even enhanced it! You're already helping me fuse it!"

"You're doing something bad out of the goodness of your heart!"

Zhou Han felt so wronged!

He had been about to take off, but now his wings were clipped.

He felt like he had lost a hundred million soul crystals.

"Zhou Han, what were you about to say?"

After seeing the fusion of the Awakening Bead, Elder Lin nodded in satisfaction.

He remembered that Zhou Han seemed to want to say something, so he asked.

Zhou Han glanced over. He did not want to speak now.

After all, he could not blame others for being kind!

Ads by Pubfuture

"Zhou Han, why do you look so strange? Is there a problem with the fusion of the Awakening Bead?"

"That shouldn't be! Elder Lin is personally taking action. This is an honor that not many people can enjoy!"

Nie Tian said worriedly when he saw Zhou Han's expression.

"Don't worry! With me around, there won't be any problems."

After hearing Elder Lin's words, Nie Tianchen was relieved.

He naturally knew how much Elder Lin valued and cared for Zhou Han. Otherwise, he would not have personally helped Zhou Han awaken.

At this moment, Zhou Han slowly adjusted his mentality. Since he had missed it, he could not regret it.

Suddenly, he felt his body riot, and the shackles of his body were constantly broken.

Powerful forces poured in.

"Finally starting to awaken. I wonder what class it is?"

Chapter 91: Wind Sword Demon, Three Attributes

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Under Elder Lin's guidance, Zhou Han closed his eyes.

He slowly comprehended the energy in the world.

All kinds of auras kept turning quickly around him.

Sword aura, saber light, psychic power, battle aura, blood aura, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, ice, lightning, magnetism, light, dark, sound waves, time, space, stars, moonlight, gravity, and so on.

Zhou Han could feel it, but some were deep and some were blurry.

It was a very mysterious feeling.

After some time, the elements seemed to make their choice.

When Zhou Han opened his eyes, three elements surged into his body.

Ads by Pubfuture

In an instant, his aura soared, and his powerful aura shattered the tables and chairs around it into dust.

"This aura is not simple! It doesn't seem to be a single attribute!"

Nie Tianchen muttered to himself, his eyes filled with surprise and joy.

"Good, that's great. In the Divine Trials in a month, our Sword God Hall will definitely shine and bloom with our former glory."

Even Elder Lin was excited. His perception was much better than Nie Tianchen's.

He clearly saw three elements of different colors enter Zhou Han's body.

In that case, Zhou Han now had three elements.

As expected of the Number One Prodigy. Not only would he not disappoint, but he would bring a huge surprise.

[Awakening successful!]

[You've awakened the Wind Sword Demon class!]

"I've finally finished sleeping. What power."

Zhou Han only clenched his fists gently now, and there was a cracking sound in the air.

He was stronger than before, his muscles filled with explosive power. His little brother was also much more muscular.

"Huh! There's still wind flowing!"

After checking his body, Zhou Han was surprised to find that there was a layer of transparent wind vortex on the surface of his body. With a thought, these wind vortexes would turn into countless wind blades that attacked the target.

"I'd better take a look at the attribute panel first!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Han opened the interface and started reading.

[Wind Sword Demon, Zhou Han]

[Level: 31 (11.6%)]

[Health: 40,000+56,000]

[Attack: 5,000+9,400]

[Defense: 2,300+5,300]

[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]

[Title: Number One Prodigy +10 (Providence Plunder)]

[Weapon: Golden Snake Sword +7 (Sword Spirit, Life Leech, Skill Damage)]

[Secondary Weapon: Famous Saber – Siming +7 (Invincible, Damage Reduction, Resistance)]

[Ring: Lightness Ring +7 (Armor Penetration, Critical Hit, Agility)]

[Earrings: Moonlight Earrings +6 (Critical Hit, Resistance, HP Recovery)]

[Equipment: Red Lotus Set +7]

[God Slaying Hall Buff: +6,000 HP]

After looking at the attributes, Zhou Han was excited.

After awakening, it was awesome.

His basic HP had reached 40,000. Coupled with the enhancement of his equipment, his health limit was about to exceed 100,000.

His basic attack power was also 5,000, which was nearly 15,000.

His defense also increased greatly, reaching 7,600 points.

"Let's see what new skills there are after awakening!"

Zhou Han could not wait to open it.

The first thing he saw was self-taught skills.

Divine-grade: [Skill Combination +10], [Sky Dust Tyrant Blood +10].

Attack: [Evil Light Ghost God Slash +6], [Shadow Soul Spike +5], [Sword Aura Storm +5]. 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Other Categories: [Aura Sensing +3], [Unyielding Battle Soul +6], [Wind Chasing Thunder +8].

Then, what appeared below were his class skills.

[Sword Technique Expertise] advanced to [Sword Technique Master].

[Sword Technique Master +10: Increases attack power by 200% when holding a sword.]

[Myriad Swords Return] had been upgraded to [Extreme Mastery—Myriad Swords Return].

[Extreme Mastery—Myriad Swords Return +10: Inherit the Sword God's extreme attainments and command all swords in the world. When releasing this skill, it will increase all attributes by 600%, causing 28 times the physical damage to all enemy units within a 120-meter radius. When the target's health is lower than 20%, the killing effect will be triggered. (Killing: Ignores any invincibility attributes.)]

"Damn! The killing effect is awesome!"

As the enemies they faced became stronger, many of them had special treasure accessories.

Especially when some Boss-level existences had invincibility skills.

Therefore, ignoring the invincible attribute seemed especially awesome.

Suppressing his excitement, Zhou Han continued reading.

Next were the new class skills.

[Flowing Wind Technique: Wind skill damage increases by 10%, target's movement speed decreases by 5%.]

[Flowing Wind Technique +10: Wind skill damage increased by 200%, target's movement speed decreased by 20%.]

[Wind Blade: Summon 9 wind blades and cause 6 times the wind damage to a single target. It also has a tearing effect. In the tearing state, all attributes will be reduced by 5%.]

[Wind Blade +10: Summon 99 wind blades and cause 18 times the wind damage to a single target. It also has a splitting effect. In the splitting state, all attributes will be reduced by 20%.]

These were all wind-type skills.

Zhou Han remembered that a total of three elements had entered his body. There should be another attribute.

As expected, Zhou Han saw this skill at the bottom of the list.

[Demon Prison Blood Slaying: By absorbing blood energy, the greater the absorption, the greater the damage will be after release.]

"It actually absorbs blood energy. Looks like the last element is blood."

Of course, this 'demon' was different from the Abyssal Demons.

After enhancement, the new description of the skill was displayed.

[Demon Prison Blood Slaying +10: After using the skill, enter a red-eyed state and greatly increase attack speed and movement speed. Absorbs blood energy and causes terrifying explosive damage.]

As for how much attack speed and movement speed it could increase and how much damage it could cause, it was not reflected in the specific data, so Zhou Han had no way of knowing.

He could only use it in actual combat later.

"I finally know the attributes of the three elements."

After reading it, Zhou Han understood and smiled in satisfaction.

The three elements were sword, wind, and blood.

Three powers collided and fused in his body.

Finally, they turned into a ray of light and entered the center of Zhou Han's forehead.

The mark of a small blood-red sword loomed.

There was something demonic about his handsomeness.

This blood-colored sword was connected to Zhou Han. As long as he willed it, the violent forces would be dispatched at will.

After adapting to this power, Zhou Han retracted his thoughts.

Ads by Pubfuture

He looked up and saw that many people had arrived at the Awakening Hall.

He glanced around and realized that the bad woman, Wan Yuhe, had also appeared here.

Seeing Zhou Han's gaze sweep over, she immediately gritted her teeth.

However, Zhou Han ignored them. They were all unfamiliar faces.

But none of them were weak.

"Old Lin, he's really a good seedling. In less than three years, we'll be left behind."

"Three years? You're underestimating Zhou Han. I reckon he'll be able to beat us old fellows in two years at most!"

"Hahaha! Soon, our Sword God Hall will regain our former glory!"

"I heard Old Lin bragging about Zhou Han yesterday. Seeing him today, he's indeed shocking."

"Three attributes. He's a genius!"

Chapter 92: Trial of Beauty, Sect Mission

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Conversation filled the hall.

Zhou Han looked at the names on their heads and immediately knew their identities.

It turned out to be the nine elders of the Sword God Hall.

No wonder all of them had such powerful auras.

Good lord, this was a big scene. It had alarmed so many people at once.

On the side, Wan Yuhe's expression darkened when she heard everyone praising Zhou Han.

Previously, when she was the strongest prodigy, she had never seen these elders praise her like this.

"Yo! Zhou Han has completed his awakening!"

Ads by Pubfuture

Soon, an elder saw Zhou Han and hurriedly said.

"Zhou Han, when are you coming to my house? Let's discuss sword techniques with my daughter!"

"Zhou Han! Are you married? I have a granddaughter…"

"You're not bad. From now on, all ten of my granddaughters will follow you."

Zhou Han: "…"

'Ten? That's harsh!'

Who said that the higher-ups of the Sword God Hall were terrifying?!

This was completely a rumor!

Look how kind these old fellows are now.

It was either for their daughters or their granddaughters.

However, these old fellows were a little stingy. Couldn't they be more practical?

They could just give him any sword or pill!

'What's the point of pushing your daughters or granddaughters to me?'

"Alright, stop talking! Get to the point!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Elder Lin stopped them in time.

"Elder Lin, what's going on?"

Zhou Han also asked the question in his mind. He saw that Wan Yuhe was also present.

It had to be something.

"It's like this. The once-every-three-years Divine Trials is about to begin! This is a grand event on the Godfiend Continent. Not only can we obtain generous rewards, but it's also proof of glory and strength!"

"That's why I want your opinion! I hope you can represent the Sword God Hall in this event!"

Elder Lin stroked his white beard and smiled.

'Oh? There's a generous reward?'

Zhou Han immediately said righteously, "Elders, don't worry. As a member of the Sword God Hall, I naturally have to represent the Sword God Hall."

"When do we leave?"

"Good. I knew you wouldn't let us down! But it's a month before it opens. It's still early."

As expected, when they heard Zhou Han's words, the elders revealed gratification in their eyes.

People were not what they used to be. Children as loyal as this were rare.

"In a month? What are we doing now?"

Zhou Han's expression darkened. There was still a month.

'What are you talking about so early? It was all for nothing.'

"This is the daughter of the Sword Emperor, Wan Yuhe. You've interacted with her before."

Elder Lin pointed at Wan Yuhe and continued, "She's also participating in the Divine Trials. I want to arrange for you to train together next."

"You young people! You have a common topic. Everyone improves on each other."

Zhou Han was a little unwilling. They wanted him to take care of this girl!

He could bring a familiar girl, but this girl was not very familiar.

Moreover, Zhou Han did not want to bring her along.

"Elder, I'm afraid she'll affect my progress!"

What Zhou Han meant was that he was afraid that they would cause a conflict and ruin things.

After all, this woman had such a fiery temper. Zhou Han did not want to provoke her anymore.

"What…"

"Don't worry, the Sword Emperor will get her an Emperor-grade weapon when the time comes. I promise not to drag you down."

Elder Lin explained. He had clearly misunderstood Zhou Han.

He thought that the other party despised Wan Yuhe for being weak.

It was indeed normal for the Number One Prodigy to be so arrogant.

Elder Lin was about to say something when Wan Yuhe's shy voice sounded.

"Zhou Han, don't look down on me!"

"Don't think you can humiliate me like this just because you defeated me yesterday!"

At this moment, she was trembling with anger. This was the first time she had been despised.

No matter what, she was a favored daughter of the heavens.

How could she take this lying down?

She was already a little resistant to her mother's arrangements and did not want to train with Zhou Han.

Now that this happened, she had to team up with Zhou Han.

She had to show her true strength and ruthlessly respond to Zhou Han's mockery.

"I'm really not looking down on you!"

Zhou Han said gloomily in his mind.

It was all his fault for saying something ambiguous and causing a misunderstanding.

It seemed that he still had to cultivate the art of speech.

Ads by Pubfuture

However, at this point, Zhou Han did not want to explain.

'Then just reject her!'

Just as Zhou Han was about to say it, a system notification sounded.

[You have a new sect mission: Trial of Beauty. Do you accept?]

"Accepted!"

Zhou Han agreed habitually.

After agreeing, Zhou Han reacted.

This time, a sect mission appeared.

As for what was different, he wasn't sure.

Soon, the description of the mission appeared on the interface.

[Trial of Beauty]

[Description: Fight alongside Wan Yuhe and collect enough materials.]

[Progress: Melilot (0/100), Blood Aura Stone (0/50), Heart of the Fire Demon (0/1)]

[Location: Fire Spirit Islands (Coordinates: …)]

[Time Limit: 3 days]

[Reward: Soul Crystals, experience points, and 100 sect contribution points.]

He saw that there were soul crystals and experience points as a reward.

There were also sect contribution points but he did not know what they were for. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝘦𝘵

He was prepared to ask Elder Lin later.

"The reward is good. I accept!"

In that case, he would show her mercy!

Who asked me, Zhou Han, to be so easygoing?

"Ahem! Since the elder has said so, I naturally have to give him face!"

"After all, she's also a member of the Sword God Hall. As the Number One Prodigy, I have the obligation to help. I'm duty-bound to contribute to the Sword God Hall!"

Zhou Han said with a smile.

"Tsk!"

When Wan Yuhe saw Zhou Han's smug face, she was furious and snorted in her heart.

It was as if she was begging him for affection.

"Yes, that's good!"

Elder Lin nodded in satisfaction. If Zhou Han was unwilling, he would not force him.

Then he continued.

"Don't worry, the Sword God Hall has strict rules. The rewards and punishments are clear. I won't let you work for nothing."

"Oh? What exactly is the process?"

Zhou Han was interested and quickly asked.

"Do you see this Swordsman badge?"

Elder Lin took out a badge from his interspatial ring and handed it to Zhou Han.

The badge was translucent in color, with a small sword carved in the middle. It was lifelike.

There was still sword aura flowing on it, but it was very weak.

"As long as you join the Sword God Hall, everyone will have their own exclusive badge."

After seeing Zhou Han take the badge, Elder Lin continued to explain.

"After successfully activating the badge, you can see all the missions under your current authority."

As long as the mission was completed within a limited time, one could obtain varying amounts of contribution points.

Contribution points can be exchanged for various items in the sect's mall."

"Are there any authority restrictions?"

Zhou Han acutely noticed this word.

"Of course, you have to set up authority. After all, you can't count on some sword cultivators who have just joined the Sword God Hall to be loyal to the Sword God Hall from the beginning!"

"If there are spies from other forces or traitors like the Evil Swordsman, wouldn't the Sword God Hall suffer a loss?"

Another elder came over and explained with a smile.

He was Elder Ye, who was in charge of internal law enforcement.

"That's true. Looks like I lack consideration. As expected, I'm not suitable to be part of the management team!"

"That's why we set such a standard. We assess the rank of the badge by the total contribution points obtained."

"The higher the level, the greater the authority to open it. You can activate your badge now."

After hearing this, Zhou Han felt that this method was indeed good.

Although they could not completely eliminate the existence of some spies, they could at least eliminate 90% of them who had strange intentions.

Elder Lin only gave a simple introduction.

There was also a lot of content that could not be finished at once.

Therefore, he gestured for Zhou Han to activate the badge himself before checking and fumbling around.

Ads by Pubfuture

This way, it would be easier to ask him if there was anything he didn't understand.

According to Elder Lin's method, he had to use the cultivation technique he had comprehended in the [Visualization Hall] to successfully activate it.

There was an identification mechanism inside the badge that could automatically identify him.

If it was another attribute of sword aura, it would automatically destroy itself.

This way, others would take advantage of the situation.

Zhou Han's eyes narrowed as he injected a sword aura into it.

Soon, the badge emitted a hazy halo and immediately established a mysterious connection with Zhou Han.

[The Swordsman badge has been activated. Do you wish to check?]

With Zhou Han's reminder, the badge was completely bound to him.

"Check!"

After reading it, Zhou Han nodded.

Ads by Pubfuture

The status of the Number One Prodigy was indeed different. Not only did he have to have a high starting level, but he could also enjoy a discount when shopping.

However, Zhou Han did not have any contribution points now, so he did not look at the mall.

"Let's see what effect it has first!"

Zhou Han chanted the enhancement in his heart. Ten white lights flashed and the enhancement was completed.

"I didn't expect it to be able to be enhanced ten times. Looks like this material is very good."

While sighing, Zhou Han opened the attributes. The effects of the enhancement were also displayed.

[Swordsman Badge: Prodigy Customization +10]

[Level: 3]

[Contribution Points: 0]

[Description: You will receive a 50% discount when shopping in the sect's mall. The contribution points obtained through missions will double.]

[Purchase: You can exchange equipment, items, and other items for contribution points. (Limited to Gold-grade and above.)]

[Sect Mall: Click Open]

[Mission Area: Click Open]

The effect of the enhancement was indeed awesome. After Zhou Han saw it, he also revealed a look of ecstasy.

One could enjoy a 50% discount when shopping. Moreover, after completing the mission, the contribution points obtained would double.

There was also a new function: exchange.

"Can I exchange equipment for contribution points?"

"By the way, didn't I drop a Starlight-grade weapon? I wonder how many contribution points I can pay."

Thinking of this, Zhou Han hurriedly took out the Star Feather Fan from his bag.

This was a Starlight-grade weapon, the highest quality weapon Zhou Han had ever seen.

However, his Swordsman class could not use it.

It had to be extremely expensive to sell. The players in this area definitely did not have so much money.

He was still considering what to do with the weapon when a change-of-purchase function appeared.

Although he did not know how many contribution points he could exchange for, it was better than getting them all.

"I'll exchange the Star Feather Fan for contribution points!"

Zhou Han chanted in his heart. Then, the feather fan in his hand immediately disappeared, and the system notification sounded.

[You used the Exchange function. You received 1,000 contribution points.]

Although he did not know how strong the purchase of 1,000 contribution points was, this exchange was quite worth it. After all, the trial mission he accepted only rewarded him with 100 contribution points.

"I have to see what's in the sect mall first. How much is it?"

Zhou Han directly opened the option for the sect mall. Soon, a large number of things appeared in front of him.

It was a blur, but there were many options on the panel.

He could quickly search for what he wanted.

[All], [Weapons], [Equipment], [Pills], [Skill Book], [Props], [Mount], [Pets], [Dressing], [Magic Treasures], and so on.

Zhou Han opened [All] and a line of words appeared on the interface.

[Detected that you are the Number One Prodigy. You have automatically blocked items below the King-grade.]

This was quite good. Zhou Han smiled and looked at the many goods.

[Blood and Qi Burning: King-grade skill, priced at 50,000 contribution points.]

[Flowing Cloud Stigmata Sword: Sacred-grade, priced at 1 million contribution points.]

[Dragon Emperor Set: Divine-grade, priced at 100 million contribution points.]

[Wind Chasing White Phoenix: Divine-grade mount, priced at 200 million contribution points.]

"Damn, why are they all so expensive? Isn't there anything cheaper?"

The prices got higher and higher, making them a little speechless.

He thought that 1,000 contribution points had a certain purchasing power.

He did not expect to not be able to buy even a strand of hair.

"Can you not block items below King-grade?"

Zhou Han asked in his heart. After waiting for a long time, he received a system notification.

[No, this will embarrass the Number One Prodigy!]

"…"

Seeing this, what else could Zhou Han say? He could only continue to look for products with suitable prices.

Finally, under the [Item] section, he found the lowest price item—Demon Summoning Scroll (King-grade).

The price was 20,000 contribution points. After searching through all the items, this was really the cheapest in the sect's mall.

Previously, Zhou Han had obtained the Demon Summoning Scroll and summoned a Silver-grade Boss, but it was insta-killed.

Many pieces of Silver equipment dropped.

This time, the Demon Summoning Scroll was a little different. Zhou Han immediately opened it.

[Demon Summoning Scroll (King-level)]

[Grade: King-grade item]

[Description: After using it, a King-grade Boss will be summoned. When successfully killed, there is a chance of dropping King-grade equipment.]

[Reward: The reward will be distributed according to the proportion of damage. There will be an additional reward for the last attack.]

[Attention: The King-grade Boss will be announced to the world. Please ensure that you have a certain level of strength before using it.]

"There's a chance of King-grade equipment dropping! This is really not bad!"

Zhou Han was tempted. Firstly, this item was cheap, and the benefits were not bad.

However, even if he enjoyed a 50% discount, it would still cost 10,000 contribution points.

"I have to work hard to earn contribution points these few days!"

He had just tried it and exchanged a piece of Platinum equipment. Each piece only gave 30 contribution points.

As for Diamond equipment, he could obtain 200 contribution points for each.

However, it was not easy to obtain Diamond equipment.

"I should take a look at the mission area first. I hope there are more missions in the Fire Spirit Islands."

After clicking on it, the same sentence flashed.

[Detected that you are the Number One Prodigy. You have automatically blocked missions below 100 contribution points.]

This time, Zhou Han was very satisfied.

Two sections appeared. They were divided into [Sect Mission] and [Bounty Mission].

[Sword Saint's Request… 5,000 contribution points. Location: Ruins of End City.]

[Sword Maiden's Double Pen… Contribution Points: 300. Location: Forest of Desire.]

[Find the Dragon Abyss Sword… 1,500 contribution points. Location: Ancient Sword Tomb.]

Many missions were very tempting, but they were too far away.

They took three to four days to go back and forth. To Zhou Han, who needed to develop in the early stages, it was not worth it.

"Location: Fire Spirit Islands, search for relevant missions!"

After all, Zhou Han and Wan Yuhe's destination was the Fire Spirit Islands. Zhou Han naturally wanted to accept more missions.

Otherwise, it would be a huge loss if there was only one mission per trip.

[Three have been retrieved. Please check!]

[Fire Crystal Collection]

[Description: Collect 500 Top-grade Fire Crystals.]

[Progress: Top-grade Fire Crystal (0/500)]

[Location: Fire Spirit Islands (Fire Demon Stele Forest, Coordinates: …)]

[Time Limit: 2 days]

[Reward: 500 sect contribution points.]

The second mission was also to collect the scales of the Fire Python. It cost 300 contribution points.

The third mission was… 600 contribution points.

Zhou Han did not hesitate and accepted them all.

The four missions gave 1,500 contribution points.

Chapter 94: Myriad Flames Corpse King, Fire Demon Stele Forest

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Coupled with the double benefits, he could obtain 3,000 contribution points, which was much closer to 10,000 contribution points.

Zhou Han closed the interface and was immediately filled with enthusiasm.

"How was it? Are you satisfied with the merchandise inside?"

Elder Lin was originally chatting with the other elders. When he saw Zhou Han move, he hurriedly asked.

"I'm satisfied, but it's too expensive! I have to work hard to earn contribution points!"

"Alright, have a good chat about the trial. We won't disturb you!"

Before Elder Lin left, there was a faint smile on his face.

It made Zhou Han a little confused, but he did not think too much about it.

"Hey, let's go! We've started our mission. Why are you still in a daze?"

Zhou Han was racing against time to earn contribution points, so he naturally could not wait.

"Who are you calling 'hey'? Don't I have a name? How rude!"

Wan Yuhe's eyebrows shot up, and her pretty face was murderous as she spoke angrily.

"Are you leaving? If not, I'll leave first. If you beg someone to lead you, you have to lower your stance!"

Of course, Zhou Han would not let her have her way. Towards such a young lady, he had to be more unyielding than her.

"Who asked you to? It was my mother's request. Do you really think you're strong?"

Her face was filled with displeasure. After all, she was the apple of his eye.

It was as if he was shamelessly pestering her.

"Hmph! You sound like you mean it. Prove your strength!"

"Then how do you propose we prove it?"

"Isn't that simple? When the time comes, we'll split up and see who can collect the materials fastest?"

A vague smile appeared on Zhou Han's face as he seduced this silly girl step by step.

"Alright, that's a deal. Don't underestimate me. I'll definitely impress you!"

Wan Yuhe's face was filled with determination to win.

She'd lost completely and been humiliated that way.

At the thought of that scene, she felt ashamed and resentful.

After all, she was the one who provoked him first. Her mother, the Sword Emperor, would not stand up for her.

Therefore, she wanted to regain her dignity at all times. Now that she had such an opportunity, she naturally wouldn't let it go.

"Yes! I want to see what you can do!"

Zhou Han revealed a look of disdain, but he was already laughing in his heart.

It was good to let her complete the mission alone. He could focus on the other three missions.

In that case, firstly, he wouldn't have to fight with her, and secondly, it would save him a lot of time.

Soon, when they were ready, they set off.

There was an entrance to the Fire Spirit Islands in the Sword God Hall.

Two white lights flashed. After Zhou Han and Wan Yuhe entered, they parted ways as agreed.

[Current territory: Fire Spirit Islands. This is a combat area. Please pay attention to your safety.]

[Attention: This area is a public area. personnel from other forces may enter. Please treat it with caution.]

"Personnel from other forces?"

Hearing the notification, Zhou Han quickly understood.

There were many forces in the Godfiend Continent.

However, he was not very sure. What he knew was the corresponding Sword God Hall for Swordsmen, the Martial God Hall for Martial Artists, and the Holy Court for Clergymen.

Dark Soul Temple, Mage Temple, Bow Temple, Dragon Knight Palace.

They corresponded to the seven major classes.

Of course, Zhou Han did not understand or come into contact with some hidden forces.

"Anyway, I have to be careful."

Zhou Han warned himself in his heart.

At the same time, he checked some simple messages.

[Fire Spirit Islands]

[Difficulty Level: Diamond Nine Stars]

[Wild Monster Combat Strength: Platinum to Diamond.]

[Hidden Faction: Fire Spirit Race]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Drop: Fire Spirit Bracelet, Heavenly Fire Wand, Flame Qilin Spear, and so on.]

[Description: An island filled with a hot and humid aura. All attributes of fire elemental cultivators will increase by 5%. It is recommended that teams above Level 60 enter.]

Waves of heat kept attacking.

However, Zhou Han was not too affected by flying in the air.

Soon, they reached the range of the Fire Demon Stele Forest.

When Zhou Han landed, he could feel an even hotter temperature.

The first thing he saw was a forest of steles. On each stele, black flames burned.

A steady stream of power surged out from the ground, feeding the black flames.

According to the map, if one wanted to collect [Top-grade Fire Crystal], he had to destroy these stone monuments first and then kill the powerful existence hidden underground.

"I am the will of the wind, Endless Wind Domain!"

Zhou Han directly used his awakened skill.

These things had a high fire resistance, so the damage caused by the Red Lotus Set was not very great.

A violent wind covered the sky. The air was distorted under this power.

Countless wind blades were cutting wantonly. In less than a minute, the stele forest was completely destroyed.

"Who is it? Are you disturbing my rest?"

"Unforgivable!"

Then a vast aura rose from the ground.

The stench of decay and heat mixed, making Zhou Han frown.

The guy in front of him was rotten, but his body was wrapped in black flames.

Zhou Han used Appraisal.

[Myriad Flames Corpse King]

[Grade: Diamond Boss]

[Level: Level 75]

[Health: 70,000]

[Attack: 7,000]

[Defense: 5,000]

[Skill 1: Black Flame Penetration (Summon the Earth Core Black Flame to deal a devastating blow to the target)]

[Skill 2: Myriad Tempered Body (A body tempered by endless flames day and night will have a 50% damage reduction effect)]

[Skill 3: Corpse King's Dignity (Immune to control skills. Increases all attributes by 300% in a short period of time)]

[Description: Possesses powerful attributes and is considered a top existence among Diamond-grade experts. Weakness: Water, Ice.]

"So it's a corpse. No wonder it stinks!"

After reading it, Zhou Han finally understood.

"Damn you, human, why did you trespass on my territory?"

"How dare you ignore the pressure of the Corpse King? Die!"

Terrifying black flames covered the sky. The intense heat seemed to melt everything.

Zhou Han knew at a glance that this kind of flame was not simple. It was probably not inferior to the Endless Sky Flame he had come into contact with before.

Not to mention how painful it was, it was mainly because the corpse was too disgusting.

Therefore, he no longer hesitated and directly used his ultimate move, [Extreme Mastery—Myriad Swords Return].

"In the name of the Sword God, all the swords in the world are at my disposal!"

As Zhou Han finished speaking, his aura instantly soared.

The black flames in the air were scattered instantly.

A disc formed behind him. Countless sword shadows spun.

Ads by Pubfuture

As Zhou Han pointed his finger forward, countless sword lights whistled towards the Corpse King with an invincible might.

"What? What… what cultivation technique is this?"

"Aren't you known as Myriad Flames? Why are you terrified in front of my Myriad Swords?"

The arrogant Myriad Flames Corpse King trembled and looked at everything in front of it in shock.

Even though it was experienced and knowledgeable, it was still stunned.

However, it quickly reacted. Let alone blocking this power, even a touch would probably make it fall apart.

If it didn't run now, it would die on the spot.

A black light flashed and it burrowed underground without looking back.

"Ha! Do you think hiding underground is useful?"

"Attack fiercely. Today, we'll turn this flat ground into a canyon!"

Chapter 95: Soul Returning Coffin, Equipment Socket (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Seeing the endless sword aura coming, the Myriad Flames Corpse King ran quickly.

It scurried underground like a gopher.

There was an ancient coffin placed in the underground space.

Without hesitation, it quickly lay down in the coffin and closed the lid.

"Phew! I'm finally safe. This is an Emperor-grade defensive artifact. It's definitely impossible to break!"

"But when did such a powerful character come to the Fire Spirit Islands?"

Hiding inside, it calmed down a little.

This coffin was extremely hard, and it was confident in it.

Ads by Pubfuture

Three Starlight-level experts had once attacked together for a few hours.

In the end, they were all exhausted and could not break open this coffin.

This was also why the Myriad Flames Corpse King could survive for so many years.

In ten seconds, a deep pit dozens of meters wide had been blasted into the ground.

Zhou Han also saw this coffin and activated Appraisal to check its attributes.

[Soul Returning Coffin]

[Grade: Emperor]

[Durability: 1,000,000]

[Effect: Damage taken is reduced by 50%, durability recovered by 3% per second.]

[Description: Refined from extraterrestrial meteorite iron. It can provide a powerful defense.]

"It's actually Emperor-grade. I didn't expect you to have such a thing!"

After reading it, Zhou Han was a little surprised. He did not expect the other party to have an Emperor-grade artifact.

However, on second thought, it was a Boss after all. All creatures on the Godfiend Continent had their own consciousness.

This way, they could also develop on their own and kill monsters to level up.

It was not surprising that it had an Emperor-grade artifact.

"Hahaha! I advise you not to waste your effort! Leave as soon as possible! It's good for both of us!"

At this moment, when the Myriad Flames Corpse King heard Zhou Han's voice, it started to show off again.

With a total of a million durability and a 50% damage reduction, it could still recover 3% durability per second.

In other words, he had to deal more than 60,000 damage per second to destroy the [Soul Returning Coffin].

The Corpse King naturally did not think that Zhou Han could do it. Even three Starlight-level experts could not do it. How could a young man do it?

Therefore, it was naturally confident when it said this.

"For nothing? It seems you know nothing about true power!"

Zhou Han's eyes turned sharp. With a thought, all the sword aura attacked the [Soul Returning Coffin].

If it was said that the previous version of [Myriad Swords Return] might be a little difficult, then there were no additional enemies to kill, so he could not increase all his attributes.

However, the upgraded [Extreme Mastery—Myriad Swords Return] was different. As long as he activated the skill, his attributes would increase by six times.

Coupled with the multiplier of the skill's damage, it was easy to deal millions of damage.

Sizzle! Sizzle!

After the violent sword aura hit, sparks flew.

"Give up as soon as possible! How can you easily shake an Emperor-grade artifact?"

The Corpse King, who was in the Soul Returning Coffin, could only be passively beaten up and could not move.

Seeing that there seemed to be no sign of breaking, its words were filled with sarcasm.

"Hehe, you… what?"

"Damn it!"

There was a loud crack and a huge crack appeared.

Then, it continued to spread like spider silk, and the Soul Returning Coffin was filled with cracks.

The Corpse King's expression changed, and its smile gradually condensed. Its pale face was about to become transparent.

"Stop! Stop it, you bastard!"

Many lights appeared in the originally dark coffin.

The Corpse King knew that this was a sign that it was about to shatter and immediately shouted angrily.

"Please, stop! Stop now!"

It naturally knew the consequences of shattering.

The roar failed and immediately turned into a plea for mercy.

Zhou Han smiled coldly and was unmoved.

The sword aura was even richer. A large hole had already been torn open in the Soul Returning Coffin.

"Just wait. The Corpse Race won't let you off…"

The vicious voice became weaker and was quickly buried by the sword lights that filled the sky.

Hearing the system's kill notification, Zhou Han knew that the other party had been completely annihilated.

"Let's see if anything good dropped!"

Zhou Han waved his hand, and the violent wind blew away the dust. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎

Covering his nose, he walked over.

Three things dropped.

First was a skill book, [Corpse Refinement Technique], which was used to refine corpses.

Although it was Diamond-grade, Zhou Han still felt that it was evil and smelly.

'I'm sorry, I really can't do it.'

There was no need to learn such a skill.

He opened the Swordsman badge and directly exchanged it for 200 contribution points.

The second was a Diamond-grade ring, the Ice Moon Ring. It was ice-type and did not match Zhou Han.

Zhou Han already had the [Lightness Ring], so he did not consider this and directly sold it.

The third sword was a [Wolf Soul Bow]. Zhou Han had no use for it.

"This luck isn't good! None of them are useful!"

Shaking his head, Zhou Han began to collect the mission materials, [Top-grade Fire Crystal].

A huge pit had already been created just now, causing many crystal mines to be exposed.

It saved digging time.

[Top-grade Fire Crystal discovered. Do you want to collect it?]

When Zhou Han's hand reached out and touched a large area of purple-red stones,

the system gave a collect prompt, and the relevant description appeared.

[Top-grade Fire Crystal]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Effect: Main materials for upgrading fire skills, weapon enchantment, and attribute cultivation.]

Chapter 96: Soul Returning Coffin, Equipment Socket (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Collect!"

[You collected a Top-grade Fire Crystal.]

[You collected a Top-grade Fire Crystal.]

The notifications kept appearing. It took more than ten minutes for 500 top-grade fire crystals to appear.

After confirming, including the time to travel and fight, it took a total of twenty minutes.

This efficiency was very terrifying.

"Submit the mission!"

Ads by Pubfuture

The mission description was only to collect fire crystals.

There was no mention of delivering it personally to someone, or somewhere.

This was quite convenient and saved Zhou Han a lot of time.

[You have completed the fire crystal collection mission. You have received 500 contribution points.]

[Detected the characteristics of the Swordsman badge. You have received an additional 500 contribution points.]

As expected, the doubled effect took effect and he obtained 1,000 contribution points in an instant.

"I wonder if this top-grade fire crystal is useful to Zhen'er. Let's collect some more!"

Seeing that there were still some top-grade fire crystals in the crystal mine, Zhou Han's principle was not to waste them.

He collected them all, thirty or forty in all.

After all, Ao Zhen was also of the fire attribute. Perhaps there would be some miraculous effects.

It did not take long for Zhou Han to finish tidying up.

There was nothing of value in this Fire Demon Stele Forest.

"Start moving. Next mission point!"

Lava hills were everywhere.

Zhou Han gave it a try. As long as he touched the magma, his HP would decrease drastically.

The speed at which his HP dropped was even faster than the HP recovery, making him a little surprised.

"Fortunately, I can fly. Otherwise, this mission would be really difficult!"

"This is only 300 contribution points. The guy who issued the mission is simply too stingy."

Zhou Han complained and quickly flew over.

He killed the Fire Pythons that were rolling in the magma.

They were all Platinum to Diamond-grade demonic beasts and did not encounter the Boss.

Therefore, they were all insta-killed and had no strength to resist.

[Collecting Fire Python Scales. Mission complete…]

After the notification, Zhou Han ran to the next mission point as if he was rushing.

The wind swirled and smoke filled the air.

The Flame Bull, which was eating grass in the Withered Plains, felt the terrifying aura of the storm.

The sharp wind blades cut through their strong bodies like tofu, opening huge wounds.

One by one, they fell to the ground and died in screams.

In the hot airwave, Zhou Han quickly killed the Flame Bulls.

[You have obtained Flame Bull Whip x300.]

With a prompt, the materials were collected.

This guy who issued the mission had quite a unique taste.

"Phew! It's finally all done!"

Ads by Pubfuture

"No, the energy can't keep up. I have to eat something."

After killing the Flame Bull, other than the mission to train with Wan Yuhe, all the missions in the Fire Spirit Islands were done.

Including the equipment that dropped, he obtained a total of 3,930 contribution points.

At this moment, Zhou Han also felt a little tired. He had completed three missions in 45 minutes. He could only blame himself for using too much strength.

After all, flying required energy, and so did releasing skills.

After submitting the mission, Zhou Han immediately felt very hungry.

He immediately sat down, cut off the thigh of the Flame Bull, and began to barbecue.

[You have a new friend message. Please check it!]

Zhou Han, who was focused on testing his skills, heard the system notification.

"I wonder what the two of them are up to!"

Zhou Han directly opened the message.

Han Xiangning: Han, I've reached Level 25. I'm going to do an awakening mission. I might not be back until late tonight. Don't worry about me!

Han Qinxue: Zhou Han, Xiang Ning and I have both reached Level 25. I'm going to the Holy Court to awaken today…

After Zhou Han finished reading, a smile appeared on his face.

It was reasonable for them to reach Level 25 so quickly.

After all, it was a five times experience buff. Even a pig could take off!

Zhou Han then opened the level rankings.

[Level Ranking 666]

1. Zhou Han: Level 33 (17.7%)

2. Han Xiangning: Level 25 (11.1%)

3. Han Qinxue: Level 25 (10.8%)

4. Ou Huang: Level 18 (99.3%)

5. Mei Aoxue: Level 17 (95.5%)

6. Gou Tuo: Level 17 (86.2%)

7. Jia Feiqiu: Level 17 (16.4%)

8. Lin Fan: Level 16 (93.3%)

As expected, the difference in the rankings was becoming more and more obvious. The people behind could only leave them in the dust.

This was only the beginning. As they progressed, with the five times experience buff, the gap between them and the others would only widen.

He had planned to enter the mystic realm tomorrow with the sisters.

Now that it seemed that the plan had changed, Zhou Han had to consider it at length.

After all, they did not have as high combat strength as Zhou Han. They would definitely not be able to complete the awakening mission within a day.

After reading it, Zhou Han also replied.

Ads by Pubfuture

Zhou Han: Well done. Be careful when you awaken. If there's any problem, contact me immediately.

He said this habitually.

Han Xiangning: Han, I'm a little nervous. What if I don't succeed in awakening?

Han Qinxue: Zhou Han, how did you awaken previously? Tell us!

The sisters' classes were Mage and Clergyman.

The places of awakening corresponded to the Mage Temple and the Holy Court.

Zhou Han did not know the exact process. It might be the same as the Sword God Hall, or it might be different.

He briefly explained the process of his awakening to them.

Actually, there was nothing much to say. In short, it was to enhance, enhance, and enhance before completing the awakening.

Han Qinxue: By the way, there are some useful messages in the shop acquisition area. I've marked them for you. Take a look for yourself.

Chapter 97: Soul Returning Coffin, Equipment Socket (3)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han: Okay, Qinxue, it's been hard on you!

After chatting for a while, Zhou Han closed the interface. At this moment, the beef leg had already been roasted.

"Acquisition area? I wonder what's good!"

Anyway, after the manager appointed Han Qinxue, he never managed it much.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han opened the shop while eating barbecue.

[Myriad Treasure Tower]

[Owner: Zhou Han]

[Manager: Han Qinxue]

Ads by Pubfuture

[Transaction Amount: 128,800]

[Shop Level: Level 6]

[Visit: 32,641,000]

[Listed Goods: 106 Gold Equipment]

[Auction: None]

[Regional Ranking: 1]

[Acquisition Area: Unread Messages 0, Marked Messages 3.]

Under Han Qinxue's management, the Myriad Treasure Tower had already reached Level 6 and was firmly ranked first.

Then, Zhou Han clicked on the acquisition area and saw the three messages that had been marked.

1. [Brother Han, I have an Advanced Experience Potion here. I want to sell it for 100,000 gold coins or exchange it for a Platinum-grade set.]

Zhou Han ignored it without looking at it. No matter how awesome the high-level experience potion was, it was only limited.

If he hadn't taken [Jade Fruit +5], he might have considered communicating.

But there was no need for that now.

Zhou Han directly crossed it out and looked at the second message.

2. [Brother Han, help! I'm starving. I picked up a piece of grass. The effect is very strange. I hope I can sell it for more gold coins.]

Seeing how miserable this person was, Zhou Han quickly opened the attached picture.

Zhou Han frowned when he saw it.

"Isn't this f*cking foxtail grass? Is this person teasing me?"

On second thought, it probably wasn't.

After all, Han Qinxue was such a meticulous person. With her around, it was impossible for her to make such a mistake. Therefore, it was very likely that it was really a spiritual fruit or something.

With that in mind, he immediately checked the specific description.

[Frost Heart Grass]

[Grade: Gold]

[Description: Grow in extremely cold areas and absorb frost essence.]

[Effect: After consumption, ice resistance +5%, 10% immunity to frost control.]

After reading it, Zhou Han nodded. The effect was quite good.

After enhancement, the effect should be even more prominent.

Although he had the Overlord Body effect, he had to take the initiative to release the skill.

However, this had the effect of passive immunity to frost control.

Therefore, no one would dislike such an effect.

"If the price isn't too ridiculous, I'll make a killing buying it!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Han also contacted the other party.

The man's name was on it. Chen Ergou.

He only needed to click to communicate. It was very convenient.

Zhou Han: "I want this Frost Heart Grass. Just name your price!"

He directly sent the message. After waiting for a few seconds, there was no reply.

Either the other party had really died of hunger or he was delayed by something.

After all, when they fought the demonic beasts, they were definitely focused. Naturally, they could not do it as easily as Zhou Han.

Zhou Han naturally would not wait idly and read the last message.

3. [Brother Han, I won't waste any time. If you like it, buy it directly! It only costs 200,000 gold coins.]

"You're quite arrogant! You asked for 200,000 gold coins directly."

However, Zhou Han also liked this kind of title. He immediately started reading.

[Equipment Socketing Device]

[Description: After using it, you can socket various attribute gems to increase your combat strength.]

[Effect: By piercing holes in equipment or accessories below the Starlight-grade, you can create a socket. It can be used once on each item.]

"Oh, this is really something!"

Zhou Han was delighted.

He also knew that equipment could be socketed with various attribute gems.

It needed to be perforated first. Otherwise, it could not be socketed.

However, it was only limited to equipment above Platinum-grade that could be perforated.

It could not withstand the force of the punch and shattered at a touch.

Therefore, he needed to use the [Equipment Socketing Device], commonly known as the perforation device.

There was a shop in Blue Thunder City, but the price was 400,000 gold coins.

Since it was too expensive and he did not have any attribute gems, he did not pay much attention.

Now, the other party only wanted 200,000 gold coins. It could be said to be very affordable.

As for why it was so cheap, Zhou Han guessed that the other party was definitely a low-level player.

The perforation device would not be useful for a while.

It was better to sell it for gold coins and obtain more growth resources. That was the best choice.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han quickly clicked on the purchase button.

[You spent 200,000 gold coins. You have obtained the Equipment Socketing Device. Please check the attributes!]

As for the attributes, there was no need to look at them. He had already looked at them just now.

Zhou Han directly chose to enhance it. Six white lights flashed.

After enhancement, new attributes had been generated.

[Equipment Socketing Device +6]

[Description: After using it, you can socket various attribute gems to increase your combat strength.]

[Effect: By piercing holes in equipment or accessories below the Emperor-grade, you can create a socket. It can be used twice on each item.]

After enhancing it, it indeed became much more impressive.

From the previous Starlight-grade restriction to the Emperor-grade,

Most importantly, it could actually be used twice.

That meant that he could create two sockets. It was simply awesome.

After calming down, Zhou Han put away the device.

Now, there were no gems or King-grade equipment.

It was a waste to rashly use it.

[You have a private message. Please check it!]

Chen Ergou must have sent a message. Otherwise, he would not have prompted her to send a private message.

He clicked on it. Sure enough.

Chen Ergou: Brother Han! You finally replied to me. I'm starving!

Zhou Han: Don't talk nonsense! Hurry up and state your price. I don't have time to talk nonsense with you!

However, Zhou Han still cut a large piece of meat from the roasted beef leg and directly traded it.

Regardless of whether it was true or not, if the other party really starved to death, he would feel like he had wasted so much time and gained nothing.

Chen Ergou: Wow! This is beef! This is the first time I have eaten meat in four days. Boohoo… Brother Han is so good!

'Looks like this guy has it rough. I didn't expect this!'

Zhou Han originally thought that although the remaining players in Zone 666 were not all rich, they could still survive.

He was overly optimistic.

Chen Ergou: Brother Han, how about 10,000 gold coins for this Frost Heart Grass?

Zhou Han: Get lost!

Seeing this, Zhou Han was furious. Although he was rich, he was not a spendthrift!

Moreover, this was simply asking for a sky-high price. After all, it was only Gold-grade.

He could only enhance it five times. Zhou Han did not know what would happen to his attributes after enhancement!

Chen Ergou: 8,000 gold coins?

Zhou Han: 5,000 gold coins at most. If not, just get it!

This was Zhou Han's bottom price.

To be honest, the price was still quite high, but he really wanted to buy it.

Chen Ergou: Alright, deal. Brother Han is straightforward! You are indeed the top boss on the rankings! But I have another item here. I believe you will be interested!

Chapter 98: Abyss Pass, Illusion Space (1)

[You spent 5,000 gold coins. You received Frost Heart Grass!]

After receiving the goods, Zhou Han confirmed that there was nothing wrong and placed the Frost Heart Grass into his bag.

He glanced at the message from Chen Ergou and smiled calmly. There was something good?

However, Zhou Han did not take it seriously.

A guy who could not even eat his fill probably did not have good quality food.

Zhou Han still sent a message over. As long as it was something useful to him, even if it was only a little useful, he would not let it go.

Zhou Han: Oh? Tell me!

But when he waited, there was no reply.

On this side, Chen Ergou also hesitated. He had just received 5,000 gold coins.

He was overwhelmed by surprise, so he blurted out in excitement, it was a show-off, but he did have something good.

But to be honest, he didn't dare to take it out.

After all, it was still very risky to trade above. What if the other party was baiting?

What if he chose not to buy it after seeing the item and went to kill him secretly?

A man's wealth was his own ruin.

He was too weak. These big shots could crush him with a finger.

This was not a wild guess. Something like this must have happened before.

"Let's take a gamble! Instead of living in such a sorry state, clinging to life like a dog, we might as well take a big gamble!"

It had been four days since he came to the Godfiend Continent. He could completely understand the danger. Almost half of the people had died.

If he did not find a backer and cozy up to them, it would not be a long-term solution.

Therefore, his plan was to take this opportunity to follow Zhou Han.

The only thing he was worried about was Zhou Han's character.

He gritted his teeth, determination in his eyes, and made his decision immediately.

Chen Ergou: I can give this to you for free. The only condition is that you have to protect me in the future!

At this moment, Zhou Han had already finished his roasted beef leg.

Just as he was about to exit the panel, he received a message from him.

"Oh? There's such a good thing? Not only is he giving something for free, but he also wants to be my lackey?"

Seeing this, Zhou Han immediately found it funny.

However, he did not agree immediately. He did not want to take in lackeys because it was too troublesome.

Even if he wanted a lackey, it had to be someone with talent and potential who could help him.

He really did not think much of this Chen Ergou. He was not even qualified to be a lackey.

If Ou Huang wanted to be his lackey, he could consider it.

Zhou Han: "Look at the things first. I'll decide after reading them!"

Chen Ergou: Okay! Look at this picture.

He could only pray now.

Zhou Han casually opened it, but then his pupils constricted.

It was actually a pass, and it was even a [Abyss Pass].

The Abyss was also the Fog Abyss. That was where the demons lived.

How could the items dropped from challenging such a place be bad?

He did not expect Chen Ergou to have such a good thing. One really could not judge a book by its cover!

Zhou Han suppressed the excitement in his heart and opened the attributes of the pass to check.

[Abyss Pass]

[Grade: Diamond]

[Description: With this pass, you can enter the Fog Abyss and face various challenges from the demons.]

[Effect: There is a certain chance of dropping items of King-grade and above.]

[Level Requirement: 40]

[Participant: 1]

"It can drop King-grade items. No wonder this kid is so cautious. He's worried that I'll kill him for such a precious item!"

It was funny to think of it. He finally knew what Chen Ergou was worried about.

Zhou Han's principle was that as long as no one took the initiative to provoke him, he usually wouldn't do such a thing.

They were all from the Dragon Kingdom. There was no need to do this.

Chen Ergou was waiting anxiously. When he saw that Zhou Han did not reply, he panicked.

All kinds of thoughts ran through his mind, and he planned to find a place where no one was around and hide for half a month.

Chen Ergou, who had started to run, finally saw Zhou Han's message.

Zhou Han: Alright, I'll take you in. As for protecting you, I don't have that much time. When the mystic realm opens tomorrow, I'll give you a spot. Image: [Mystic Realm Pass +6].

The [Abyss Pass] given by Chen Ergou was barely qualified to make him his lackey.

However, Zhou Han did not have time to deal with some messy matters. He could let him enter the mystic realm with him tomorrow.

It would depend on his luck if he could only obtain Starlight or King-grade equipment.

After Chen Ergou clicked on the picture, he was overjoyed.

[Mystic Realm Pass +6]

[Grade: Platinum]

[Description: With this pass, you can challenge a mystic realm once.]

[Effect: There is a 90% chance of an item of Starlight-grade or above dropping.]

[Level Requirement: None]

[Participants: 4]

90% drop rate was a guaranteed gain. He was really going to change his fate.

He left behind tears of excitement.

Chen Ergou: Thank you, Brother Han. It is indeed the wisest choice to follow you.

Zhou Han: Alright, gather at the entrance of the mystic realm tomorrow morning at 10 AM.

Chen Ergou: Yes, Boss! Then I will personally give you the [Abyss Pass] tomorrow.

After agreeing to Chen Ergou's friend request, Zhou Han closed the panel.

After taking out the Frost Heart Grass, Zhou Han enhanced it five times.

The new attributes also appeared.

[Frost Heart Grass +5]

[Grade: Gold]

[Description: Grow in an extremely cold area and absorb the source of frost.]

Chapter 99: Abyss Pass, Illusion Space (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

[Effect: After consumption, ice resistance +20%, 35% immunity to frost control.]

After all, it was a Gold-grade enhancement that had only been enhanced a few times.

However, it was always a good thing to use enhancement.

Looking at the foxtail grass that was emitting a blue glow in his hand, Zhou Han put it into his mouth.

He chewed twice but still didn't taste anything.

It turned into a cold energy that fused into his limbs and bones.

Zhou Han spat out a mouthful of cold air.

Because it was a hidden attribute, the specific effect could not be seen. It would only be triggered in battle.

"I wonder if Wan Yuhe has completed the mission?"

"With her strength, it should be about time."

Thinking of this, Zhou Han opened the map system.

Zhou Han was in a team with Wan Yuhe now, so he could check the other party's location.

There were two dots of different colors on the map.

The green one indicated his current location, while the blue one indicated his current location.

"Huh? She… ran into an Illusion Space?"

Zhou Han frowned. Was this woman slacking?

He knew the exact location of the three materials.

The Melilot Grass was in the Melilot Plains, the Blood Aura Stone was in the Frosty Blood Pool, and the Fire Demon's Heart was in the ruins of the Demon Palace.

There was no need to pass through the Illusion Space.

"It's either that or she got lost!"

"You really can't do anything right! Silly woman!"

Zhou Han guessed in his heart. After all, 99% of women had difficulty with directions.

Shaking his head and sighing, Zhou Han decided to look for her.

After all, the mission requirement was to train with her.

After eating and drinking his fill, Zhou Han's energy recovered best.

With a thought, his body soared up with a hurricane and flew towards Wan Yuhe.

At this moment, there was nothing in the Illusion Space. A faint red mist floated in the air.

There was a hint of strangeness hidden in the silence.

"You can't escape. Die!" 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝑣𝑒𝘭.𝘯𝑒𝑡

A delicate shout sounded as a purple sword aura condensed into a dragon head.

It was Wan Yuhe's Purple Dragon Soul Severing Slash. She had borrowed an Emperor-grade weapon from her mother, and its power was even more heaven-defying.

"Hehe, even if I die, I'll drag you down with me!"

"After entering this Illusion Space, don't even think about getting out. Hahaha! Uh…"

The purple dragon head flickered with a cold gaze and swallowed the Flame Demon.

The latter immediately disappeared without a trace.

"Hmph! I'll kill a mere demon with a single strike!"

"I've obtained the Heart of the Flame Demon. The mission is finally completed. Zhou Han, I'll let you underestimate me. One day, I'll crush you."

Wan Yuhe's proud face shone with pride.

She had originally killed the Flame Demon in the ruins of the Demon Palace, but the Flame Demon had activated the Fire Escape Technique.

It was only after escaping into the illusion that what happened next happened.

"It's time to go out now. Hehe, Zhou Han will definitely be impressed!"

Wan Yuhe's long legs strode briskly as she prepared to leave.

A flash of pink breath sent an obscure wave that hit her directly.

Wan Yuhe's expression changed. Her body felt inexplicably hot, and her consciousness fell into a struggle.

"What… what the hell is this place!"

Panic flashed in her blurry eyes.

Unexpectedly, she had been careless and fallen for it.

She wanted to counterattack but realized that she could not use her energy.

To her horror, she realized that her heart was filled with desire. Involuntarily, she wanted to unbutton her shirt.

From the red mist, an ugly man walked out with a lecherous smile.

"What a rare beauty! I'm so lucky today!"

"D-don't come over! I'm warning you. I'm the daughter of the Sword Emperor. Don't be reckless!"

Wan Yuhe was very flustered. She immediately revealed her identity and berated loudly.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! The daughter of the Sword Emperor! You're incomparably noble!"

"Now that you mention it, I'm even more interested. It's exciting to think about!"

The ugly man's long, scarlet tongue licked his lips, his eyes filled with an amused smile.

Wan Yuhe's heart immediately sank. The other party was not afraid of her identity at all.

Thinking of this, she felt bitter. She did not expect such a thing to happen on a mission.

Was she really going to lose her chastity today?

If that was really the case, it was better to let Zhou Han have it.

After all, although Zhou Han was very bad, he was also handsome.

At the thought of this, her body became even hotter.

"Huhuhu…"

A violent wind blew over.

"Hmm? Someone else is here?"

The ugly man frowned when he heard the commotion.

"Beauty, I'll be back soon. I won't keep you waiting!"

He smiled and left.

In his territory, he was not afraid that Wan Yuhe would escape.

As soon as he entered the Illusion Space, Zhou Han clearly felt that something was wrong.

This was filled with a strange aura that could affect the mind and soul.

"Looks like Wan Yuhe isn't just lost. She must be in danger!"

Zhou Han came to a conclusion and was about to walk towards her.

Flash!

Flash!

Flash!

The red mist in the air suddenly turned into countless sharp arrows.

It attacked at a high speed.

There were so many of them that Zhou Han could not react in time.

He did not expect the red mist in this area to be controlled by the other party.

However, he did not panic and directly activated the [Sky Dust Tyrant Blood].

-105

-129

-93

With a 90% damage reduction, the damage he suffered was negligible.

However, Zhou Han quickly realized that the sharp arrows that were attacking him had changed into the form of red mist.

They desperately wanted to enter Zhou Han's mind.

"Looks like a mental or soul attack, but this intensity is too weak!"

If Zhou Han had not cultivated his soul, he might really have suffered a huge loss today.

However, not only did he cultivate the Soul Manipulation Technique, but he also cultivated the Unyielding Battle Soul and consumed the Heavenly Essence Pill.

How could the strength and tenacity of a soul be easily shaken?

"Battle Soul Possession! Unyielding Will, shatter!"

A tenacious will rose from the depths of his soul, shattering the red mist on his body.

"Uh-huh!"

There was a grunt from the depths of the red mist. The other party suffered a backlash.

As for how much HP he had lost, Zhou Han did not know because he had yet to find the other party's exact location.

The other party's body did not seem to be corporeal. It kept changing and shuttling through the red mist.

"It's a little tricky! I didn't expect the other party's soul to be so powerful!"

"I was actually injured by my own move? How strange!"

The ugly man hid in the red mist, his expression a little surprised.

For a moment, he was afraid and did not dare to attack again.

However, he kept thinking of countermeasures.

"Ha! You're just a coward. How dare you ambush me?"

"Break through the illusion of confusion! Endless Wind Domain!"

Zhou Han naturally would not give the other party a second chance to attack. He took the initiative to attack.

With his will, a violent wind blew, and the red mist shattered.

The entire world suddenly became clear!

With the red mist completely dissipated, the other party naturally had nowhere to hide.

As Zhou Han used [Aura Sensing] to lock onto the location, the wind blade slashed out with an unparalleled aura.

"Whoa… Can you hurt me?"

A sneer appeared on the ugly man's face. Without the cover of the red mist, he did not seem to be afraid.

Sure enough, when the powerful wind blades attacked, they touched his body and then seemed to penetrate the air.

It did no damage at all as if his body no longer existed.

Seeing this, he smiled even more brazenly.

Zhou Han also frowned. This was the first time he had experienced such a situation.

He immediately activated Appraisal and found the other party's attributes.

"I see! I see!"

"Now let's see how arrogant you can be!"

After Zhou Han finished reading, a cold smile appeared in his eyes.

Chapter 100: You Beast, Primal Desire (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This ugly man was naturally not a human. He was a member of the Illusion Race among the thousands of races on the Godfiend Continent.

No wonder everything about the other party was so strange.

Fortunately, Zhou Han had the enhanced version of Appraisal. All of the other party's privacy was exposed to him.

[Illusion Race—Red Mist Illusory Beast]

[Grade: Starlight Boss]

[Level: Level 80]

[Health: 200,000]

[Attack: 21,000]

[Defense: 8,000]

[Skill 1: Primal Desire (Smells pink and makes targets with lower soul strength than itself have primal desires)]

[Skill 2: Fog (The body can turn into a fog, the damage taken will be reduced by 50%, and the user can control the fog to kill the target)]

[Skill 3: Illusion (Pulls the target into an illusion. The lower the target's soul strength, the higher the success rate)]

[Description: The main body can travel through the red mist. It is invisible and immune to most elemental damage. Weakness: Spiritual, Soul.]

"As expected, the Godfiend Continent is extremely strange. There are all kinds of races!"

As he continued to train, Zhou Han believed that he would definitely encounter more magical races in the future.

But that was for the future. He had to deal with the problem at hand.

"Don't talk big, kid. Bring it on!"

Hearing Zhou Han's words, the Illusory Beast obviously didn't take it to heart.

It did not believe that a low-level kid could discover its weakness.

"Come on! Do you not dare? As expected, you humans are all cowards!"

The Illusory Beast's eyes were filled with mockery as if it wanted to trigger Zhou Han's anger.

It deliberately picked some provocative words and shouted loudly.

This kind of provocation was too low-level. Zhou Han naturally would not be impulsive, but his eyes were filled with coldness.

"Something's wrong! The other party is provoking me like this. Is it asking me to rush over and fight it?"

"That doesn't make sense. Is it trying to achieve something special?"

After all, the other party's methods were strange.

He had to be careful, so Zhou Han quickly thought in his heart.

"Could it be? Am I in an illusion now?"

Although his soul strength was high and the probability was low, there was still a chance of being pulled into an illusion by the Illusory Beast.

Zhou Han suddenly had this thought.

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

The shattering continued.

As soon as this thought appeared, the surrounding world shattered like glass. The scene in front of him was completely different from what Zhou Han saw.

Right in front of him was a valley of molten lava. The terrifying temperature was terrifying.

As long as Zhou Han was provoked and attacked just now, he would definitely be consigned to eternal damnation and face a tragic end.

Cold sweat slid down his back!

Zhou Han's anger reached its peak. He had been played like this.

He had almost lost his life. How could he not be angry?!

"I didn't expect you to see through it!"

"But it doesn't matter how angry you are. You can't hurt me!"

The Illusory Beast looked regretful, then spoke confidently.

"Shadow Soul Spike, die!"

Zhou Han roared angrily and three dark soul spikes shot out.

"Hmm? This is a soul cultivation technique?"

The Illusory Beast's expression changed slightly, and its body instantly shrank.

The density of the three soul spikes was too low to hit its body.

Indeed, a skill like the Shadow Soul Spike could play a powerful role in close combat.

However, if it was long-range, it was obviously a little weak. There was no forced hit effect. The probability of hitting was too low.

Especially an opponent with high agility like an Illusory Beast, who could easily dodge it.

"Haha! That's all! I told you not to waste time. I'll let you off today. Get lost!"

There was a trace of contempt in the Illusory Beast's words. In fact, it could not do anything to Zhou Han.

That was why it said such a thing.

"What? You're still coming? What a waste of effort!"

Seeing Zhou Han use skills one after another as if they were free, the Illusory Beast's smile deepened and it became even smugger.

[Your Shadow Soul Spike proficiency has reached the maximum. Do you want to unlock a new skill?]

Therefore, Zhou Han was not doing this for nothing, but to increase his proficiency.

Finally, his proficiency reached the maximum and the new skill was officially unlocked.

"Unlock the skill!" Zhou Han chanted in his mind.

[Your skill, Soul Catcher Wave, has been successfully activated. Please check the attributes!]

Zhou Han did not check directly but enhanced it five times. 𝑏𝑒𝑑𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝑚

[Description: Absorbs souls and emits violent soul fluctuations.]

[Effect: Causes 14 times the soul shock wave in a space of 1 million cubic meters (100 meters in length, width, and height). Cooldown: 20 seconds.]

This was indeed awesome!

How bad could a cultivation technique that fell from a demon be?

Although it was only Gold-grade, the output was still very strong.

After reading the description of the skill, Zhou Han smiled.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Why don't you keep attacking! Aren't you quite capable?"

"Come on, hit me!"

The Illusory Beast changed from an ugly man to a wild beast. It twisted its butt and mocked!

Clearly, Zhou Han's attack was completely ineffective, making it even more arrogant.

"Good. I'll grant your wish."

Zhou Han narrowed his eyes, a dangerous cold light flowing in them.

"Soul Catcher Wave! I will crush your soul!"

After the angry shout, a violent fluctuation appeared around Zhou Han.

Like water waves, with a soul-stirring aura, it spread in all directions.

The calm undercurrents of space surged.
