Clear Wind Village (ID32115), north entrance of the village!

Ling Yi ran around like the wind, Giant Tooth Sword and Jian Yi large and one small, continuously slashing at the lord-level boss Rabbit Little Vajra.

This is already the fifth lord-level boss that Ling Yi has killed in the beginner village.

According to the game's mechanics, for every 500,000 Rabbit Ling Yi kills, one Rabbit will mutate into a mini-boss. If the mini-boss is killed within ten seconds, then the lord-level boss will emerge from the ground.

The boss followed Ling Yi, while the wooden sword and Giant Tooth Sword slashed from behind.

Many of the other players were used to this scene.

This happens around this time every day.

This happened every single day for four whole days.

Over the next four days, Ling Yi imbued the Clear Wind Pendant, Breeze Finger Ring, Breeze Cloak, and Breeze Boots with Spirit Infusion.

However, the first priority for upgrading the weapon spirit is still the Giant Tooth Sword.

For no other reason than that I simply think this Sword Handsome.

In addition, Ling Yi also collected the Clear Wind Set, including the Clear Wind Sword, Clear Wind Armor, Clear Wind Helmet, Clear Wind Legguards, Clear Wind Bracers, and Clear Wind Band.

Three more Giant Tooth Sword were obtained, four more Rabbit Tooth Sword were obtained, and 18 Level-Up Pill were saved up.

This is already the sixth day of the game.

By now, most players have reached level 3 and are now hunting Jungle Wolf.

Only a few players who joined the game relatively late are still farming Rabbit.

Ling Yi was still grinding Rabbit. He wanted to level up the Giant Tooth Sword's spirit to level 10 first. As for his character level and when to leave the newbie village, Ling Yi wasn't in a hurry.

Players have always said that leaving the starting village is when you truly begin your Jianghu.

Heaven knows if there will ever be such a dense swarm of Rabbit to level up his spirit weapon.

Giant Tooth Sword {Blue Cesium} (Right Hand - Support) - Spirit lv9 (653115/1000000): This is a weapon with its own soul, Attack +160, Attack Speed +6, Ignore Defense 100% (Bound)!

(Note: Assist mode does not occupy an equipment slot and provides no attribute bonuses to the player.)

If I grind for another afternoon, I should be able to get the Giant Tooth Sword's spirit to level 10.

Speaking of Level-Up Pill, ever since the day Manifestation Level-Up Pill in reality, Manifestation a Rabbit Tooth Sword every day. Now Ling Yi's house already has four Rabbit Tooth Sword.

After several days of research, Ling Yi discovered that the Manifestation objects could not be brought into the game.

But why bring out four Rabbit Tooth Sword?

Is it for decoration?

No, this Rabbit Tooth Sword isn't even good enough to be a decoration; it should at least be Giant Tooth Sword.

I wonder what the Spirit Infusion Manifestation would look like in reality?

Wow, just thinking about it makes my mouth water.

After four days of grinding, Ling Yi not only leveled up the Giant Tooth Sword's spirit to level 9, but also leveled up his character to level 5 by grinding on Rabbit.

Sure enough, after level 5, the experience points only doubled, instead of increasing tenfold.

Otherwise, the other players would really be crying.

Ling Yi had heard players around him complain more than once about how difficult it was to level up and how low the drop rate was.

Especially the drop rate—is the drop rate low? Absolutely not.

"Brother, when are we leaving the newbie village?" Just then, One Cigarette and his companions emerged from the depths of the forest.

Ling Yi looked at the four people in front of him with a strange expression.

You're Not Worth a Cigarette!

You're Not Worth a Cup of Wine!

You're Not Worth a Plate of Food!

You're Not Worth One Head of Garlic!

Goodness, what a name! Are you trying to make sure everyone knows you're a family?

It's worth mentioning that One Head of Garlic is a girl, very pretty, with a lovely voice, and a real woman.

While you can change your appearance in the game by customizing your character's face—from male to female or vice versa—your voice cannot be changed. There are no cheat codes or plugins in this game.

A girl named "You're Not Worth One Head of Garlic "—this name was probably just randomly chosen by someone while One Cigarette!

"Tomorrow!"

"Are you planning to use the Level-Up Pill?" One Cigarette asked.

"Um!"

The A Cup of Wine, their eyes lit up; they were clearly very interested in the Level-Up Pill.

"Bro, you're awesome! We don't even know how long it will take us to reach level 10."

"However, after leaving the starting village, it's best to join one of the major Jianghu Jianghu. If that's not feasible, a small sect will do, but never join bandits, gangs, or similar organizations."

One Cigarette was clever; instead of directly asking to buy Level-Up Pill, he first revealed some information unknown to ordinary players in order to gain Ling Yi's favor.

Seeing Ling Yi's interested expression, One Cigarette continued, "No matter how vast the Jianghu, it can't be bigger than the imperial court. Mountain bandits, robbers, and all sorts of evil gangs are all tasks issued by the imperial court to eliminate."

"Tsk tsk, you can imagine how it will turn out."

"Thank you!" Ling Yi was indeed unaware of this information.

He had been tracking the game server's address, but wasn't particularly interested in the game's mechanics.

Therefore, I have never looked into this information.

"Are you beta testers?" Ling Yi asked.

" One Head of Garlic is a beta tester; the three of us didn't get a spot," said A Cup of Wine.

"Brother Reincarnation, I'd like to buy your extra Level-Up Pill. Of course, the price will definitely satisfy you."

He only needs to keep 8 Level-Up Pill; he can eat 3 in the real world and 5 in the game. The rest are really useless to him.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "I have 10 that I can sell. What price are you willing to pay?"

How about 100,000 per pill?

"Gold?"

"You're my own brother, do you know how much one gold coin is worth now? One thousand, one hundred thousand gold coins, that's how much again?"

One Head of Garlic said, "One hundred million!"

Ling Yi was dumbfounded. Gold coins were worth that much?

"Even with this, there's no market for it. Everyone's in the newbie village now. The only way to farm gold is from the boss or the village chief."

"But the village chief's tasks, even if you work yourself to the bone all day, only yield one or two gold coins."

"Once you leave the starting village, you'll understand just how valuable gold coins are. You need gold coins to learn cultivation techniques, upgrade cultivation techniques, and buy cultivation pills. In short, there's practically nothing you can do without gold coins."

"The key point is that you can't buy in-game currency with real money; you can only purchase it from other players."

Ling Yi shrugged and said, "Sorry, I only want gold coins."

"We don't have any! All of us combined don't even have 1 gold coin!" said One Cigarette dejectedly.

"But I only want gold coins!"

"Cash isn't acceptable?"

"I don't need the money!"

Ling Yi's single sentence, along with One Cigarette, completely stumped him.

"Um, the Level-Up Pill are really important to us, could we change the trading method?"

Ling Yi shook his head.

The others weren't upset by Ling Yi's refusal; the value of the Level-Up Pill was simply too high for a beginner.

Leveling up is incredibly difficult for newbies. Even after level 5, experience points no longer increase tenfold, yet each level still requires millions of experience points – it's truly agonizing.

"Tell me some valuable information!"

"There are immortals in the Jianghu, that's all I can say, the rest is of little value to you," One Cigarette stalked softly.

Ling Yi traded ten Level-Up Pill to One Cigarette, then turned around and went back to farming Rabbit.

Ling Yi appeared calm on the surface, but inside he was in turmoil.

There's nothing inherently wrong with a game having a deity element.

But this game is different. No, it's no longer a game. In Ling Yi's view, it's already a real world, a data-driven world.

Ling Yi had a vague feeling that everything the players were seeing was just a packaging, a shell, and that the true nature of the game world was far from what it seemed.

Ling Yi continued grinding monsters methodically, and after about five hours, he finally leveled up the Giant Tooth Sword's spirit to level 10.

The next moment, the Giant Tooth Sword, which had been hovering in the air, suddenly changed direction and rushed straight at Ling Yi.

Without Ling Yi reacting, it directly entered Ling Yi's body.

Ling Yi patted his body in surprise and found that he was not injured.

Just as Ling Yi was puzzled, a slightly dull child's voice rang in his mind.

"Hello, Master, I am Giant Tooth!"

"Where are you now?" Ling Yi asked quickly.

"Please wait a moment, Master. Giant Tooth is opening up your Sea of Consciousness!"

As soon as Giant Tooth finished speaking, a notification appeared before Ling Yi's eyes.

[Player Reincarnation is detected to be opening up the Sea of Consciousness. The player data panel will be updated and reset. It can be viewed after leaving the starting village.]

[Congratulations to the player for successfully opening their Sea of Consciousness through Reincarnation. Please level up to 10 within 24 hours and leave the starting village, otherwise Heavenly Punishment will befall you.]

They've even come up with Heavenly Punishment; that's pretty high-end.

Ling Yi tried it, and sure enough, the personal attribute panel was no longer viewable.

A moment later, Ling Yi Ling Yi felt his mind clear up, and in the darkness, Perception an independent space slowly emerging from the depths of his mind.

The space was a hazy gray, seemingly boundless.

One of the smaller Giant Tooth Sword was frolicking and dancing among them.

With each rotation, the space becomes more solidified.

As the Giant Tooth Sword came to a stop, Daodao golden rays swirled around Giant Tooth Sword.

With a thought, the Giant Tooth Sword reappeared in his hand.

The main body of the Giant Tooth Sword Changes largely unchanged, but Daodao runes appeared on its blade, sometimes visible and sometimes hidden, as if breathing.

A faint golden light flowed across the sword's blade, giving it a noble and Haki appearance.

Giant Tooth Sword { First Pin Spirit Sword } lv1 (0/10): Spirit Sword Mortal Transcendence. No longer regard it as just a piece of equipment; it is a forever trustworthy partner. Attack +1600, Attack Speed +60, Ignore Defense 100%, Innate Skills: Sword Control, Sword Qi! (Bound)!

(Note: Mortal Transcendence equipment does not occupy an equipment slot.)

Ling Yi raised the Giant Tooth Sword and then slashed downwards. The next moment, a golden sword Sword Qi crashed down, instantly cutting a huge Rift in the ground in front of him.

"Hiss!"

Ling Yi couldn't help but gasp; this power was rather frightening.

However, after this sword strike, Ling Yi could clearly feel that the golden light on the Giant Tooth Sword dimmed a bit.

How to restore Sword Qi?

"Master, please return me to your Sea of Consciousness. I can slowly absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to accumulate Sword Qi."

Ling Yi nodded.

With a thought, the Giant Tooth Sword floated in the air, and at that moment, a very subtle connection was formed between Ling Yi and the Giant Tooth Sword.

Previously, the Giant Tooth Sword killed enemies entirely automatically; only after the sword Perception Ling Yi's will could it passively cooperate.

Now we can communicate as easily as if it were our own arm, with perfect understanding between us.

This feeling is wonderful.

[Dear player, for your health, please log off within ten seconds, otherwise the system will force you offline.]

Seeing the system notification, Ling Yi was taken aback; it was time for today's anti-addiction period.

Ling Yi retrieved the wooden sword that was still fighting monsters in the distance, and at the same time, he put the Giant Tooth Sword back into his Sea of Consciousness. The next moment, Ling Yi logged off on the spot.
