147: Wuji Sword Dao

"Thank you!"

After receiving the Pseudo Super Divine Artifact, Wan'er couldn't help but run over and kiss Xiao Xing.

Her action provoked a burst of laughter from everyone.

In truth, the others also wanted to come over and mess with Xiao Xing, but since there were so many people present, they felt too shy to act.

"Brother Jian Chen, our guild is about to reach Rank 5. Do you want to come hang out at the Base later?"

After a bout of playful teasing, You Lan glanced at the Guild Reputation Value, then looked at Xiao Xing and smiled.

Watching the guild constantly grow, seeing her goal getting closer, and having Xiao Xing help her all the time, she felt happy every day.

She also knew that Xiao Xing's Tier was much higher than theirs.

It was normal that he couldn't play with them every day, but she hoped in her heart that it would be even better if Xiao Xing could always stay with her.

"I'll just send some Red Packets to celebrate. I won't go over there."

Xiao Xing pulled her into his arms and comforted her gently.

Afterward, he gave the two Skill Books to Mu Yaner, then used Instant Teleportation to bring Ling Su to the town.

The town was now overcrowded. Many people hadn't gone north to level up, choosing instead to kill monsters on the other sides.

Because the monsters in the north were too Advanced, few teams could withstand the pressure.

Xiao Xing had a purpose for teleporting here. He didn't intend to farm many Materials, but this Mountain Range contained some unimaginable things.

Arriving at the Demon Soul Mountain Range in the north, the two drove straight in, traveling all the way until they quickly reached the Level 59 monster zone.

The Demon Soul Mountain Range was enormous, filled with towering peaks, and the terrain was complicated. If it weren't for the large number of Demonic Monsters, players generally wouldn't come to such a place to level up.

This Mountain Range was a monster zone for Rank 40 to 59. If they continued forward, they would reach the Great Snow Mountain, which was a map filled with various Level 60 Snow Monsters.

As soon as they stopped, several Night Demons silently appeared beside them, intending to ambush the pair.

But Xiao Xing had already sensed the monsters. He swept out an Aurora Slash, and the Night Demons that hadn't even reached them yet each had a damage number pop up above their heads.

Night Demon (Common Demonic Creature)

Rank: 59

Health Points: 71000

Magic Power: 12000

Physical Attack Power: 2230

Magic Attack Power: 1768

Defense Value: 690

Skill 1: Silent (Passive)

Skill 2: Ruthless Harvest (Active)

Skill 3: Beheading Operation (Active)

Note: The Night Demon's body is unique; it can fly permanently in the air and is proficient in various Silent Assassination Techniques.

Xiao Xing scanned them briefly. The Night Demon's Physique was somewhat similar to a person's. It held a curved blade and floated in the air, its face like a vicious specter, looking terrifying.

In his previous life, Xiao Xing had naturally encountered this type of monster. It was a creature refined by the Demon Race using a special Secret Method on human corpses.

Once a certain number of these monsters were killed, a BOSS would appear. Everyone knew about this back then.

If any team continuously killed 1,000 of them, an Elite Monster would refresh.

If they continuously killed 10,000, a Lord-class monster would appear.

If they continuously killed 50,000, a Great Lord BOSS would appear.

If they continuously killed 100,000, a King Rank BOSS would appear.

If they continuously killed 500,000, a Demigod Level BOSS would appear.

If they continuously killed 1,000,000, a Divine-Grade BOSS would appear.

The interval for continuous killing was 10 minutes. If a Night Demon was killed, and another was killed within 10 minutes, it counted as a continuous kill.

In his previous life, there were teams at Level 70 or higher that challenged the 100,000 continuous kills.

The later 500,000 and 1,000,000 counts were just legends; no one knew if they were real.

The reason Xiao Xing came here was for an epic rank Ore Vein, and to enhance some magic gold, magic silver, Magic Crystals, and other items along the way.

This epic rank Ore Vein was located at the junction of the Demon Soul Mountain Range and the Great Snow Mountain, inside a massive Mine Cave.

epic rank Ore Veins were extremely precious because they were the highest Rank Ore Veins in the game.

Inside the epic rank Mine Cave, there was a 100% chance of digging up Gold Ore and a 50% chance of digging up dark gold Ore.

There was a 10% chance of digging up Epic Ore, a 1% chance of digging up shadow gold, and a 0.1% chance of digging up divine gold.

Level 60 Gold Goblin Monsters refreshed inside the Mine Cave, and the refresh time after a goblin's death was one day.

Killing these goblins could drop Pickaxes and Equipment of the corresponding Rank.

He wasn't here to mine, but for a Quest.

Legend said that the first team to kill the King Rank Goblin Leader could obtain a Quest Secret Scroll, which contained the mission to save the Elf Clan.

In his previous life, Xiao Xing was a Gang Member of the Sky-Blowing Gang, and he had heard of this Quest Secret Scroll.

The teams that went to do this Quest never returned, and eventually, they couldn't even play the game anymore. He wasn't entirely clear on the specifics.

He guessed that they must have entered a Special Map and lacked the Strength to get out, thus being forever trapped inside.

Although the benefits of Advanced Quests were huge, they also carried certain risks. Some might cause players to lose Attributes, and some might even trap them, preventing them from playing the game at all.

However, Xiao Xing wasn't worried about being unable to escape, so he planned to accept this Quest.

In his previous life, while at the Imperial City Library, Xiao Xing learned a bit about the Elf Clan.

During the Ancient Era, the Elf Clan were good friends of the Human Race. In the War of Gods and Demons of antiquity, they helped the Human Race resist the attacks of the Demon Race's powerhouses.

In that War of Gods and Demons, not only did the Human Race suffer heavy losses, but so did the Elf Clan. After the war, the Elf Clan vanished without a trace and never reappeared.

Saving the Elf Clan was a Divine-Grade Hidden Quest. Regardless of the reward, simply because the Elf Clan were allies of humanity, Xiao Xing wanted to complete this Quest.

However, there was no rush to do it now. It wasn't too late to first raise his Rank here, enhance some items, and manufacture things like magic energy shards and fission bombs.

After killing the few Night Demons, Xiao Xing began leading Ling Su to continuously hunt monsters.

Because he was bringing his whole entourage, he only managed to reach Level 37 after a whole night.

Little Purity rose to Level 36, the Divine Deer also reached Level 37, and Ling Su, due to her low Rank, jumped straight to Level 35.

Although Ling Su wanted to become stronger, she didn't like fighting and killing; however, she couldn't improve her Strength without playing the game.

Therefore, to avoid getting close to the monsters, she chose a Ranged Archer class, intending merely to coast by and gain some Rank.

Xiao Xing didn't mind this.

He only intended for Ling Su to raise her Rank enough to increase her Attributes and improve her real-life Physique.

The next day, they Cultivated Spiritual Power in the morning, continued leveling up in the game in the afternoon, and only logged off when they rested in the evening.

On this day, Xiao Xing, the Divine Deer, and Little Purity all reached Level 40, while Ling Su reached Level 39.

He also activated the sixth Skill of his Profession, Limitless Sword Dao.

Limitless Sword Dao (Passive): Comprehends the Supreme Profound Truth of the Sword Dao, ignoring all of the target's Defense Value.

This Skill could completely ignore all of the target's Defense Value, making it terrifyingly powerful.
