Naturally, the more, the better!

Hearing such an excited tone, Ryu realized she had probably been worrying too much.

"Different kinds of monsters gathering together like this is truly rare!"

As she spoke, Ryu assumed an attacking stance.

Just as she was about to step forward and deal with the monsters, Ling Xuan stopped her.

"Leave these guys to me."

Ryu could not help but freeze slightly at those words.

Was he planning to deal with this entire group of monsters by himself?

Although she was still somewhat puzzled about how Ling Xuan intended to handle such a group alone—

Ryu chose to trust him.

At that moment, Ling Xuan merely turned his gaze toward the monsters.

The next second.

The temperature throughout the entire space instantly plummeted.

Crack, crack...

Along with a series of strange sounds, something bizarre happened.

The ground had somehow become covered in frost.

At the same time, the temperature in the air dropped sharply.

Both Ryu and the monsters could feel the chill in the air!

"Is this magic?"

Ryu had witnessed scenes like this before.

Ling Xuan possessed the ability to freeze things, and she had always thought it was magic. But now, it seemed that it was not magic at all.

Magic required chanting. Of course, there were also rapid-cast spells that did not require chanting.

Ryu was not judging whether it was magic based on whether a chant was needed.

Rather, there was not even the slightest trace of magic in the air.

In other words, was this merely a skill?

A skill capable of freezing everything?

While Ryu was thinking this, the monsters on the other side were becoming increasingly unsettled.

Every monster could feel a chill.

And within that coldness was a killing intent that could not be ignored.

The terrified monsters caused the leading Orc to let out a roar.

"Awoo!"

With that roar, the monsters behind it also began howling in terror.

Yet before they could make their next move.

Crack...

At some point, their feet had already been partially frozen.

Then the frost spread, quickly covering their entire bodies.

Before long.

Nothing remained on the field but ice sculptures of monsters.

As Ryu watched the scene, a drop of cold sweat slid down her forehead.

Wasn't this skill far too powerful?!

It was practically a divine skill for clearing monsters!

She just did not know what restrictions it had...

On the other side, Ling Xuan calmly watched it all.

There was not the slightest ripple in his heart.

Still, he had naturally noticed that after all the fighting over the past year, his Honkai Energy was actually nearly depleted.

Freezing everything around him naturally consumed an unimaginable amount of Honkai Energy. If he had not farmed enough monsters beforehand—

He probably would not have been able to unleash an attack like this!

After freezing the monsters, Ling Xuan once again drew Heavenly Fire Judgement.

The next second, terrifying flames wiped out every last one of the monsters.

"Seriously, you're starting to give me the illusion that these monsters are things that can be easily dealt with in one or two moves."

Ryu could not help voicing her complaint as she watched the scene.

Ling Xuan merely shrugged and opened his panel.

Host: Ling Xuan Familia: Hestia Familia Level: Level 1 Strength: S:999 (+300) Stamina: S:988 (+100) Dexterity: S:933 (+100) Agility: S:955 (+100) Magic: H:101 Honkai Energy: A:866 Magic: None Skills: Ice Control: Level 1, Fusion Warrior, Human Chimera, Strength Boost Lv3, Agility Boost Lv1, Honkai Energy Lv1, Dexterity Boost Lv1, Stamina Boost Lv1...

Looking at the panel before him, Ling Xuan nodded in satisfaction.

It seemed this adventure had earned him quite a few Ability Stats.

Several of his attributes were nearly maxed out...

Once all his attributes reached 999, Ling Xuan had no choice but to consider a very important matter.

Something every Level 1 adventurer had to consider.

Advancing to a Level 2 adventurer.

In this world, advancing from a Level 1 adventurer to Level 2

Was not simply a matter of grinding Ability Stats.

Besides ability, there was another very important matter.

That was a Great Deed...

A so-called Great Deed was also a kind of experience, just as the name implied: accomplishing something others considered remarkable.

The simplest and easiest-to-understand Great Deed was defeating an opponent stronger than oneself, though quite a few other actions could also be classified as Great Deeds.

When advancing to a Level 2 adventurer, these Ability Stats would all return to 0.

But that did not mean those previous abilities would disappear.

To give a very simple example.

Suppose Level 1 was elementary school, while Level 2 was middle school.

"Chinese grades," "math grades," and "English grades" were like "Strength," "Agility," and "Stamina."

After entering middle school, no one kept track of what scores they had gotten in elementary school. Everyone's scores started from 0.

But that did not mean the knowledge accumulated in elementary school vanished. The more one had accumulated before, the greater their advantage over others.

Although people in both elementary and middle school varied in ability, middle school students were generally far stronger than elementary school students. That was roughly how it worked.

And now, Ling Xuan needed to start considering his Great Deed.

Ten Days to Reach the Tenth Floor!

While Ling Xuan was still considering his Great Deed, Ryu spoke from beside him.

"Let's call it a day, then."

Ling Xuan was slightly taken aback by her words.

But after thinking about it carefully, they had indeed done enough.

Today's gains had been quite good...

Ling Xuan nodded.

Soon, the two returned to Orario.

As the two headed back to The Hostess of Fertility.

"Ling Xuan!"

A sweet, lovely voice came from the distance.

Ling Xuan looked toward the sound and saw a graceful, pretty figure standing there.

It was Syr!

"Syr!"

Ling Xuan nodded.

He was already very familiar with that figure.

"Ling Xuan, Ryu, did you two just return from the Dungeon as well?"

Syr jogged over to them with ingredients for bread in her arms.

A sweet smile appeared on her face.

"Ling Xuan, Ryu, long time no see. It looks like the two of you had a very good haul today."

Hearing that, Ling Xuan nodded, then teased her.

"What do you mean, long time no see? We saw each other just last night."

Last night, he and Hestia had spent lavishly at The Hostess of Fertility.

It could be said that they had earned Syr quite a substantial performance bonus.

Hearing that.

Syr blinked her eyes.

"Really? Then perhaps I remembered wrong. Ehehe.

"But I'm still looking forward to the next time you come to the tavern, Ling Xuan.

"Remember to come find me then.

"After all, however much you spend at the tavern is basically credited to me.

"I get a commission too."

Hearing that, Ling Xuan shrugged.

Meanwhile, Ryu could not help but sigh at Syr's words.

Syr truly was a very bold person.

If she encountered some petty-minded customers, they would probably think Syr was trying to overcharge them.
