Capítulo 1047: Chapter 78: Immortal Fate Arrives, Delivery to Your Door_2
“All right, you two Daoist friends,” Lin Xuance stepped in to mediate, a wry smile on his face, “Now the apocalypse hangs over us like a sword, and the Netherworld Emperor’s army is upon us in no time. As for matters of the heart, maybe we can discuss those after dealing with these troubles. Let’s go, we need to head to Ginkgo Village. Let’s not keep the young ones waiting.”
Meanwhile, outside Ginkgo Village, on a hilltop.
A Lost Soul Mountain Bandit with cloudy eyes and a staggered gait let out a hoarse shout, swinging his rusty blade with brute force!
Xia Yi the Unrivaled didn’t dodge or evade until the blade nearly touched him; he casually stepped aside, his movements as fluid as a swimming fish, as the blade and his body passed by each other. Simultaneously, he swung his iron sword with a seemingly careless sweep!
Blood splattered. The Lost Soul Mountain Bandit’s body stiffened, wavered for a moment, then his head rolled to the ground, dropping a few copper coins.
“Haha, Brother Xia, your swordsmanship is becoming more refined, but I’m not too shabby either!” Jiu Jianxian shouted from a distance. As he spoke, his long sword trembled, executing the “Triple Waves” technique—whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! The sword tip lashed out like a snake’s tongue, piercing the heart, throat, and face of another bandit with precision, dealing three consecutive hits and taking him down instantly.
“Cut the chatter, speed up the monster clearing! Then we head to the Ancient Tomb to grind on the Tomb Robbers; the experience there is better. Let’s aim to get everyone to Level 9 before nightfall!” Hao Mie, who was in charge of command, spoke steadily and efficiently. Eight or nine corpses of Lost Soul Mountain Bandits lay at his feet, and his dual blades were still dripping with blood.
He used to rely on fist and foot techniques, but after reincarnation without Inner Strength, fists and feet were ineffective, so he switched to blades.
Ever since Xiao Jie left, everyone began a frenzy of leveling. The lure of “Immortal Fate” was too great, and to seize this opportunity securely, sufficient “talent” was naturally required. And this so-called talent, in everyone’s view, was most clearly manifested as—plentiful free attribute points reserved! Google seaʀᴄh NovєlFіre.net
So everyone frantically killed monsters, accumulated experience, but didn’t allocate a single attribute point.
Although they all started as Level 1 small accounts, they had been top players in the game in their previous lives. Even though those divine skills and powerful techniques were grayed out due to level and profession restrictions, the basic skills honed through countless trials—footwork, power techniques, timing control—were ingrained in their instincts. Even without Inner Power True Qi support, these basic combat techniques made them top-notch among mortals. Add in the top-grade newbie equipment left by Xiao Jie, dealing with the Little Monsters in the Newbie Village was nothing less than a one-sided massacre.
After seven or eight hours of intense leveling, everyone had already reached Levels 7 or 8.
The Outer Body Incarnation left by Xiao Jie stood silently under a nearby tree like a guardian, watching over everyone quietly to prevent any accidents. Although this avatar lacked all of its original powers, it possessed the body of an Immortal and could use some Immortal Techniques, making it more than adequate as a babysitter.
“What do you guys think Feng will prepare as our Immortal Fate?” Bai Ze asked while easily dispatching a mountain bandit with a few clean strikes, his eyes full of anticipation and curiosity.
“It must be a path to becoming an immortal,” Wentian Wuji calmly analyzed while adjusting his breath, “But I’m afraid it’s not a 100% guarantee. The matter of becoming an immortal is so difficult; it can’t be something everyone gets like wholesale goods, can it? Otherwise, why wouldn’t the Heavenly Venerate set up an ‘immortal training class’ and mass-produce immortals?”
An Ran chuckled lightly at this: “Isn’t it obvious? Just having a chance to touch Immortal Fate is already a massive blessing. Do you really expect the immortals to guarantee teaching and escort you to Daluo just like that?” She then turned to Bai Ze, who had been quiet since they leveled up: “Bai Ze, why have you been so silent? What are you thinking about?”
Bai Ze pondered: “I’m thinking about how we should conduct ourselves when we meet those immortals later. Should we be neither servile nor arrogant, maintaining decorum, or should we be extra respectful, acting as disciples, or perhaps try to appeal to them and show our value?”
Xia Yi the Unrivaled shouldered his sword and approached, cheerfully saying, “With the connection we have through Brother Sui Feng, I don’t think there’s any need to overthink things. Just be honest and natural. Immortals are people on a higher plane; sincerity is never wrong.”
“Wow, you all are so amazing! Do you really not need my help?” Han Luo, who had been tagging along with the group, gaining experience and rarely taking action, couldn’t help but ask, watching everyone effortlessly dispatch the mountain bandits with envy.
“Brother Han, just relax and stay put!” Jiu Jianxian significantly welcomed him over. He had quietly found out that Han Luo was Feng’s close friend in real life, and Feng’s greatest obsession in the game was to resurrect this brother, so this relationship must be handled well. “You’ve just ‘come back’ not long ago, and your memory hasn’t fully adapted yet. It’s best to be cautious with things like fighting monsters. Don’t worry, we’re in team mode, so you can share the experience and quickly catch up!”
At this moment, Wentian Wuji, who had been meditating with closed eyes as if sensing something, suddenly opened them and said in a low voice, “They’re here!”
