Ling Yi now has the [ Life Protection ] skill, so he has no worries about any high-attack methods.
What he truly fears is that kind of ruthless, instantaneous Instant Kill tactic.
For example, Ling Yi's [ Gathering ] skill can instantly Instant Kill monsters.
Focusing only on probability, ignoring the harm!
If the so-called immortals mentioned by these Revive individuals possess similar skills and abilities, then Ling Yi needs to be careful.
Moreover, Ling Yi discovered that his current attack methods seemed somewhat limited.
The [ Gathering ] skill has a major drawback: it can only kill monsters instantly, not players.
Aside from the [ Gathering ] skill, other attack methods are somewhat ineffective against level 1000 monsters. Skills that cannot instantly kill monsters are not good skills.
Ling Yi couldn't help but think of Mu Heng, the city lord of Glory City.
He was so concerned about the special job-change scroll for farmers, and even mentioned the Immortal Gate a hundred years later.
Does that mean that Shennong, after transforming from a farmer into a cultivator, possessed certain methods to eliminate immortals?
I'll go ask Mu Heng again after I log back in.
"I don't know if it's true or not. After all, the Immortal Gate won't truly open until fifty years later, and people's understanding of immortals is still far too limited."
Upon hearing Ling Yi's question, the shadowy figure paused for a long while before shaking his head with a wry smile.
"How much do you know about the farming profession?" Ling Yi asked again.
"Farmer? It's just a worthless profession. Perhaps some people think that since farmers are one of the two major professions in the Immortal Domain, they must have something extraordinary about them."
"Actually, no. However, farmers are an indispensable profession in the future Immortal Domain. Planting, raising animals, Cooking, basic Forging, and so on—almost all non- Combat professions are done by farmers."
"But that's all."
Hearing this, Ling Yi frowned. Is the farming profession really that bad? Is it really just a support profession?
If that's really the case, then why would Mu Heng pay such a high price to trade a farmer's class change scroll from me?
It seems this so-called Revive individual is a bit of a disappointment!
Moreover, Ling Yi had a feeling that this guy was hiding something, so Ling Yi immediately lost the desire to continue the conversation.
"Is there anything else you want to say?" Ling Yi asked.
"Once the Immortal Gate Secret Realm appears, you must kill the BOSS inside as soon as possible. The BOSS in the Immortal Gate Secret Realm can evolve, and it can evolve continuously."
"Once two evolutions are completed, it will be able to Air Breaking constraints and invade reality."
"Okay, continue!" Ling Yi nodded.
If it's true, then this message does have some value.
But now, Ling Yi felt more and more that there was something wrong with this person.
Such important news, those old men in Dragon Capital didn't tell me.
Ling Yi believed that if those old men knew, they would never hide it from him.
If they didn't know, it was because this so-called Revive person hadn't told those old men.
Why weren't you informed beforehand?
What are they worried about? Or are they plotting something?
"That's all I know. Before I Revive, I was just an ordinary player with no great achievements, and I didn't know much about the Immortal Domain."
"The rest, you'll have to figure out on your own."
Seemingly sensing the intense scrutiny in Ling Yi's gaze, the shadowy figure paused briefly after uttering those words before disappearing into the ground.
"What kind of skill is that? It looks pretty powerful!" Bai Yunlu walked to the spot where the dark figure disappeared and stomped on it.
"That's pretty impressive!" Ling Yi nodded.
His [Focus] skill has now reached its second level, and his Perception range has exceeded 10,000 meters. Any energy Changes within his Perception range will not escape Ling Yi's Perception.
However, Ling Yi did not notice the dark figure when it appeared. Only after the figure appeared did Ling Yi sense the Spiritual Power Aura emanating from it.
However, it's normal for Revive person to have some hidden tricks up their sleeve.
"Is this person really a Revive person?" Baiyun asked Lu.
"It should be, but whether it is or not doesn't matter, as long as it's not that kind of brainless Protagonist!"
What a brain-dead Protagonist!
"That's the kind of Protagonist who likes to stay behind the scenes, is Old Liu, and mistakes cunning for Wisdom!"
"Oh, what if the Protagonist is a complete idiot?"
"Of course we should get rid of him. Keeping someone like that around will make the New Year impossible."
"It's almost time, let's go back!"
At 8 PM, a notification message from Ling Yi appeared in front of all players.
[Note: Immortal Domain update complete!]
Game prompts are normal, but it's very abnormal for game prompts to appear in the real world.
This immediately caused an uproar among all the players.
Ling Yi, Bai Yunlu, and the others were not surprised by this.
They already knew about it from the game; there were game hints in real life. Every time they used Origin Stone Manifestation and returned to the real world, they would receive a notification.
Immediately afterwards, the official announcement was sent to everyone's mobile phone.
This announcement is essentially a showdown.
There are roughly three points:
1. Skills, attributes, equipment, and items in the game can Manifestation in the real world, but it's not Manifestation how.
2. Monsters in the game may invade reality!
3. The Soaring Dragon Guild represents the official team and handles all related issues. Even if you Manifestation the power in the game, you'd better behave yourself. Everyone in the Soaring Dragon Union is at the third job advancement and has various Origin Artifact.
Ling Yi didn't pay much attention to the real-world issues.
With the Soaring Dragon Guild around, nothing bad will happen. If something does happen, it's because the Soaring Dragon Guild has a problem.
Upon logging back in, Ling Yi and his companions appeared on the fifth Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion in Glory City.
Once it went live, everyone was greeted with a series of notifications.
[Hint: The World Championship will officially begin in six hours!]
[Hint: Do you wish to register for the World Championship Individual Competition?][Yes][No]
[Hint: Do you wish to register for the World Championship Team Competition?][Yes][No]
[Hint: Do you wish to register for the World Championship Faction Competition?][Yes][No]
[Note: Please complete your registration within ten minutes, otherwise it will be considered a forfeit!]
Ling Yi didn't hesitate at all and chose "yes" for both!
As for teammates in the team competition, Bai Yunlu is the natural choice.
After receiving Ling Yi's team invitation for the competition, Bai Yunlu immediately accepted.
After Ling Yi made his selection, the rules of the World Championship were revealed to everyone.
A dozen or so rambling points.
In summary: in both individual and team competitions, you can only win, you can't lose, and you have to keep winning; you can't lose even once, or you'll be eliminated.
In faction battles, you can just slaughter anyone who isn't in your faction.
At the entrance to each faction's territory, there is a faction- Guard boss. Defeating the faction- Guard boss results in the faction's defeat.
If you can't defeat the faction's Guard boss, then open the account with more points for that faction.
Points, of course, are earned by killing players from the opposing faction.
As for which faction is the opposing faction? Aside from players in your own faction, everyone is in the opposing faction.
Ling Yi told the others to prepare their equipment, potions, and items, while he left Glory City to research new skills.
To be honest, it's really hard for farmers to develop their skills.
Ling Yi and Bai Yunlu spent over twenty days grinding level 1000 monsters in the border wilderness before finally obtaining three more new skill books for farmers.
To be precise, it's a skill exclusive to Shennong.
In other words, these three new skills can only be learned by farmers who have changed their profession to Shennong.
The three skills are [ Hire ], [ Disassembly ], and [ Identification ]!
[ Hire ] is the most bizarre skill Ling Yi has ever seen in any game.
Or rather, in Ling Yi's view, this wasn't a skill at all.
You can purchase Clone mercenaries by spending gold coins. Clone mercenary can inherit any three of Ling Yi's skills, and only three skills are allowed.
The more gold coins consumed, the higher the inherited attributes.
Based on Ling Yi's current attributes, Clone mercenary with 100% attribute inheritance would require 100 million gold coins.
This skill may seem bizarre, but it's actually quite useful.
The key point is that Ling Yi doesn't lack gold coins right now.
He directly exchanged for ten Clone mercenaries and sent them to the borderlands to grind monsters.
You can compete, grind monsters, improve skill proficiency, and farm equipment all at the same time.
Perfect.
Unfortunately, the Clone mercenary can only exist for 24 hours at a time; if you want the Clone to continue existing, you need to renew it.
Otherwise, it would be even more perfect.
As for the renewal fee, it's cheaper. A Clone mercenary who fully inherits Ling Yi's attributes only needs to consume ten million gold coins per day.
In other words, Ling Yi has no shortage of gold coins, but for ordinary players, no one can afford to spend them.
Even with the backing of the official government, the Soaring Dragon Guild wouldn't dare to spend ten million gold coins a day like that.
The new skill [ Disassembly ] initially didn't impress Ling Yi with its name. However, after reading the skill description, he felt it was similar to skills like Cooking and Forging, belonging to the category of manual labor skills.
[Reduction of 400,000]
Numbers suddenly appeared above Ling Yi's head.
Immediately afterwards, Ling Yi saw a masked man dressed in black appear in front of him.
"Good heavens, was I Sneak Attack?" Ling Yi was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
How much fake alcohol did they drink to dare to Sneak Attack me?
How about learning about the 4.3 trillion yuan "Fountain of Life"?
"How much HP do you have anyway? Last time I couldn't kill you with 200,000 HP, and now I can't kill you with 400,000 HP? Are you sure you're a peasant?" the man in black asked, somewhat exasperated.
"Huh? You attacked me before? How come I didn't know?"
The man in black remained silent. This man in black was none other than the Demon Spirit Assassin attacked Ling Yi at Ant Mountain last time, One-Shot You.
"More than twenty days ago, at Ant Mountain, you had just logged off. Didn't you even watch the logout replay?" said One-Shot You.
"I never watch that stuff, I don't have time," Ling Yi shrugged.
I'm too busy farming Origin Stone to watch offline replays!
"Well, since you're here, you can help me test out my new skill!"
Ling Yi instantly killed One-Shot You, using his [ Disassembly ] skill.
[Hint: Disassembly skill failed to use; Disassembly proficiency +4!]
Yeah, LV's skills are really lame.
However, as long as you're proficient, that's fine.
Because of the second job advancement [Focus] skill bonus, skill proficiency will increase by 4 times.
Therefore, even if a skill is used incorrectly, the proficiency level will still increase by 4 points.
continue!
[Hint: Disassembly skill failed to use; Disassembly proficiency +4!]
[Hint: Disassembly skill successfully used. Disassembly skill proficiency +8!]
[Hint: Congratulations! Your maximum health has increased by 800, maximum stamina by 150, attack by 4000, and defense by 200!]
One-Shot You vanish on the spot, Disassembly into Void.
Ling Yi: "Wo Cao!"
Disassembly Disassembly everything into basic materials, but there is a certain probability of failure.
The higher the level of the item Disassembly, the greater the chance of failure.
Upgrading your level will increase your success rate!
Meanwhile, on the other side, One-Shot You, who Resurrection from the Glory City Inn, looked at his stats panel and exclaimed, "Damn it!"
