Chapter 10, The White Robe

You ... ...

I see now

System prompt: Successfully focused energy, congratulations on triggering a critical hit, earning 2000 experience points

Charm: 0

Thus, sitting cross-legged on a flat rock, one confirms the practice of cultivation

... ...

I nodded slightly. Although I could not understand what he was saying, I could feel that there was indeed a flow of energy within me. Therefore, I closed my eyes and gradually began to perceive the rhythmic sensation of this energy coursing through my body, actively adapting to and merging with this feeling. Before long, the energy within me seemed to become even more robust

Contribution: 208

The world has changed; even Ah Fei has started to criticize me for being incompetent. Is there still any justice left in this world! Filled with dissatisfaction, I followed the mountain path to Fengyun Terrace. Looking at the empty Fengyun Terrace, I said: "Master, I have something to discuss with you!"

Of course there is a matter

Well

[Blade of Godslaying] (Grade A): Ignores 30% of the target's defense, dealing 165% damage to the target, and requires a consumption of 15 contribution points.

In the air, the fierce wind coalesced into Ding Heng's visage, still exuding an ethereal and otherworldly aura. He spoke softly, "The assault of the adventurers from another world is becoming increasingly fierce. The decisive battle at the Wind and Cloud Platform must be resolved swiftly. We must select the strongest among the younger generation at the fastest speed to confront this storm. Let us begin!"

I find myself somewhat envious, saying: "The level is very high."

Defense: 28

It is I, is there something you need?

... ...

With such attributes, once I step onto the Fengyun Platform, multiplied by ten, that would amount to 560 points of attack power and over 10,000 health points. I fear that Er Dan and Long Yilan, along with that group of death cultivators, may still not be my match. Furthermore, if I can continue to dominate on the Fengyun Platform, the contribution I can gain will only increase, ultimately allowing me to accumulate advantages. It is likely that among the younger generation of the Black Castle, I may truly be on the path to becoming a king!

Level: 10

Outside, someone tapped on my helmet, and immediately I heard A Fei's voice: "A Li, why haven't you come to the novice village yet? How long is it going to take for you to take on this hidden profession? Have you succeeded yet?"

Three hours later, the Fengyun Platform will reopen

In this manner, more than forty deceased cultivators were sent flying; the strength of this undead corpse is exceptionally formidable

[Blade of the Hunter] (S Rank): Launch three attacks against the enemy. The damage of the first attack is related to attack power, the damage of the second attack is related to agility, and the third attack is related to critical hit. A consumption of 100 contribution points is required for selection

A few minutes later, after entering the back mountain of Fengyun Platform and navigating around several large rocks, indeed, a scene of ancient trees and vibrant flowers filled the air with the sounds of birds appeared ahead. Everything here exuded vitality and spiritual energy, incomparable to the gloomy exterior mountains. Just then, a small icon labeled "Cultivation" popped up in the lower right corner of my interface

I waved my hand and said, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

He said coldly: "Last time, the Fengyun Platform was opened in a hurry, and I was in seclusion training, which allowed you to fortuitously obtain the first place. The next opening of the Fengyun Platform will be the moment for you and me to determine the victor!"

I have started my job

[Blood-Draining Blade] (Grade A): Upon activation, 30% of the damage dealt in battle is converted into the user's health for a duration of 5 seconds, requiring a consumption of 5 contribution points.

[White Garment] (S Level): Enter stealth mode during combat, the damage of the first attack on the target after activation is increased to 200% of true damage, requiring a consumption of 100 contribution points.

Vital energy and blood: 1450

Thank you

At this moment, Ding Heng's face in the wind revealed a faint sense of satisfaction as he smiled and said, "To think you have truly grasped the essence of condensing energy so quickly, young one, your comprehension is indeed remarkable. If Zhuang Huai Shui and Lei Chang were to know of your astonishing insight, they would surely regret it. I have truly stumbled upon a treasure."

The undead corpse let out a furious roar, charging straight ahead, with wisps of deathly energy swirling around the warhammer, sending the worg flying with a single strike

He was momentarily speechless: "Then I have no choice but to level up alone"

How can I enhance my abilities? Or rather, my level? I asked directly.

He wore a face of grief and indignation: "In the scorching heat of July, I will not share the heavens with you. We shall meet later on the Fengyun Platform!"

In just a few seconds, the state of the undead corpse instantly returned to its full form. The second challenger stepped onto the stage, yet again, was sent flying with a single blow.

Soul Star : 0

Drip

After all, they are the guides, so it is important to show them more respect

As soon as I saw that he was a disciple of Zhuang Huaishui, I knew there would be trouble

Seek one's own demise

... ...

He had a face full of embarrassment, originally intending to engage in a verbal spar with me, to show off his authority. Little did he know that I did not take the bait at all. In fact, is there any point in arguing with an NPC here? It is a waste of time; it would be better to explore some of the rules of the Black Castle mode.

Combat Power: 102

System prompt: Qi condensation successful, gained 1000 experience points

His voice could not conceal his excitement as he said: "I have learned two level 10 skills, one Fireball and one Wind Blade. With dual spell casting, I can step back a few paces and cast again. I can almost defeat monsters of the same level in an instant. Leveling up is incredibly fast, and I have joined someone else's leveling area, making it quite safe. I estimate that I will reach around level 12 by tonight."

... ...

July's Flowing Fire (Undead Assassin)

In the next moment, two beams of light swept across the arena, bringing two young champions onto the stage of destiny. One was a wolfman clad in armor, while the other was a decaying undead holding a warhammer

Have you been employed at level 10?

I couldn't help but be taken aback; this is truly bizarre

Even so, I felt that every pore in my body naturally opened up, drawing in the breath of the outside world by itself

Thus, through repeated meditation and concentration, my experience points soared rapidly. Initially, it took about ten minutes to trigger a critical hit once, but as I gradually became more skilled, I was able to trigger 4 to 5 critical hits in approximately ten minutes. By around ten o'clock in the evening, my level had already risen to level 10, and I had allocated all 15 points to agility

Not bad!

Oh!

I slapped my thigh, feeling a sudden realization; it turns out that besides battling on the Fengyun platform and gaining experience by defeating players, there is also this method of leveling up through meditation. Had I known this earlier, I would not have wasted so much time

Success has been achieved, but there is no way to return to the novice village, and for the time being, I cannot extricate myself

I thought it was a big deal ... ...

Attack: 42 - 56

Critical Hit: 0.45%

Good

The critical strike of cultivation

I left with a sense of purpose, then wandered around the mountainside for a while, only to find that there wasn't even a single wild rabbit in the forest. The monsters had been completely cleared out, making it nearly impossible to level up here.

Ding ding ding ~ ~ ~

Upon seeing this, I couldn't help but take a deep breath, my heart racing uncontrollably. The emergence of a strong invisibility skill is simply astonishing; this S-rank white-clad figure is nothing short of a divine technique. To be able to become strongly invisible during battle is equivalent to granting oneself an opportunity to escape the battlefield. Moreover, under the activation of strong invisibility, the next strike actually deals 200% true damage. This is just too overpowered!

On one side, a fierce roar of a beast echoed. When I turned around, I saw the Infernal Lion, its face filled with rage, standing there, its complexion dark as it said: "The fiery flow of July, our decisive battle has only just begun!"

By the way, what level are you at

Swish!

At this point, the personal panel has become quite aesthetically pleasing

A cultivation progress bar appeared on the screen, lasting for 60 seconds! After 60 seconds, there was another soft sound!

Comprehension: 94

There is no need to pay attention; simply cultivate in a natural manner.

Rely on ... ... vegetables b ! ''

The exchange has been completed, leaving only a pitiful 3 points of contribution, and at this moment, the competition at the Fengyun Platform is about to begin

... ...

I smiled awkwardly and said, "Master, to be honest, I still don't understand what happened."

Take a look at your remaining contribution points, there are a total of 208 points left. You can exchange for a white robe and a Hunter's Edge, and with the remaining points, you can also exchange for a somewhat useless Bloodsucking Blade. That's it, at least it can be considered that I have acquired a recovery skill. Next, let's prepare to kill together!

... ...

I was directly transported to one side of the Fengyun Platform. This time, it was evident that there were more participants in the competition for the Fengyun Platform, approximately 50 or more people. Among them, the Infernal Mad Lion "Er Dan" and Long Yilan were present. Among those present, it is likely that these two individuals are the strongest.

Level 7

Long Yilan, Er Dan, and I sat in silence, exchanging glances without uttering a word, each of us reluctant to be the first to step forward. We waited for the random draw to determine who would face this terrifying undead creature.

Just after completing a Qi condensation practice, a pleasant ringing sound echoed in my ears

... ...

Doo!

Yes, Elder

Thus, with focused attention, the training began repeatedly

Suddenly, the strong winds on the Fengyun Platform swirled together, taking the shape of Ding Heng: "Little fellow, what is the matter?"

He hesitated for a moment, seemingly trying to comprehend what "level" meant, and then said: "Follow me, there is a place with abundant spiritual energy at Fengyun Terrace, where you can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cultivate yourself, in order to seek a breakthrough in the Condensation Realm"

Alright, I will wait for you

Before me, dark clouds rolled in the sky, gathering into the shape of Ding Heng, who spoke in a deep voice: "The Qi Condensation Realm is the first step for all practitioners in the mortal realm. If one cannot comprehend the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, then it is impossible to grasp any of the laws of the universe. Whether it is the cultivation of the law of death or the laws of fire, storm, and so on, one must ultimately learn to master the Qi Condensation Realm. Little one, you must fully immerse yourself in it and perceive the existence of Qi; only then can you truly break through yourself. Do you understand?"

Call

I felt a wave of delight in my heart. The reason I could receive such praise from Master Ding Heng, could it really be due to my 94 points of comprehension? Is my cultivation in the game indeed more efficient than that of most people? If that is the case, then that would be wonderful, as it indicates that the attribute of comprehension is quite significant

A skeletal guardian of the Wind and Cloud Platform stepped forward, gazing at me coldly: "Follow me."

"Er Dan, it's you! Long time no see!" I laughed heartily.

First, select a skill item, and a beam of light "shua" unfolds before my eyes, with several available skills swaying right in front of me

You

Rely on ... ...

... ...

Ding!

And me!
