Chapter 35 System Update
Soon it was almost noon, and Captain Mu was seen with a team of detectives, followed by Hu Yi, Meng Ting and two warriors dressed as housekeepers. Hu Yi was stunned for a moment when he saw Lin Mo standing with Tang Yu and Xu Tianfu. It took him a while to realize who this was, and then he whispered to Meng Ting beside him:
"Look over there, isn't that your childhood sweetheart? From what I know, he should be a useless guy who doesn't know martial arts. Why is he here?"
Meng Ting also saw Lin Mo and whispered, "We haven't been in touch for a long time. How would I know his situation?"
Hu Yi's expression was somewhat sinister, and he smiled evilly: "If I meet him in the underground palace, I will definitely take good care of him, haha."
It’s a pity that he didn’t see the mockery in Meng Ting’s eyes, otherwise he would have felt like a pitiful clown.
Captain Mu said at this time: "It is already the Chen hour, the underground palace should be opened by now."
A white light emanated from the underground cave below. Captain Mu continued, "I don't care which faction you belong to. We are now in the territory of the Great Mo Dynasty, so no one will care if you want to fight or kill in the underground palace. But if you want to fight again after we come out, you must do it in the suburbs. Anyone who kills in Jinyang City will not be spared by the Great Mo Dynasty!"
After saying that, he walked aside without waiting for everyone's reply. Now there were more than a hundred people present, most of whom were independent cultivators, so they all intended to form teams of two or three. Feng Hen and Meng Qing looked around and took the lead to walk into the underground palace, and the others followed one after another.
Tang Yu said to Lin Mo: "We don't know how long it will take you to get in here. The shortest time the underground palace is open is three days, and the longest time is ten days. However, food is usually provided inside. I hope you can get the first place this time and soar into the sky!"
Xu Tianfu also clasped his fists towards Lin Mo and said, "Brother Lin, I wish you all the best. Don't worry about other things."
Lin Mo knew that Xu Tianfu's words of not worrying meant that after he killed Hu Yi, he would be responsible for stopping Hu Weidi. Lin Mo also bowed to the two of them. Beside him was Li Shu, who looked excited, and behind him was Yun Tianqing, who had been silent all the time. The three of them were the last to enter the underground palace.
When they arrived at the gate of the underground palace, they found that the previous gate was already open. Lin Mo asked Li Shu and Yun Tianqing to go in first, saying that he would take a look at the gate. The two nodded and entered the gate. A flash of light passed by, and the figures of the two disappeared in front of Lin Mo. Lin Mo was secretly shocked. This gate should be a teleportation formation, so he held the gate with both hands and said in his heart:
"System, check it for me!"
The system's voice delayed for a moment and said, "Ding, testing in progress. Test failed. It is determined that this item belongs to someone else. In addition, the star rating of this item exceeds five stars. The system is updating and loading. The system is reading and perfecting the world rules of this world."
Lin Mo was shocked. He had guessed that this item must be in someone's possession, but he didn't expect the star rating to exceed five stars. He had never even seen a five-star item. He just heard the system's voice again:
"Ding, the system update is complete. The system has successfully read and improved the world rules of this world. The system's star rating will rise from five stars to seven stars, and the system's item reading will be more in line with the rules of this world."
Lin Mo listened for a while and found that the system did not continue speaking, so he asked: "System, that's it, I helped you update it after all, as for the reward, you can just give me some points, or are there any new modules or something."
"Ding, the system is judging whether the host's requirements are met. Judging, the judgment is successful. The host has successfully enabled the system to read this world more perfectly. Therefore, the host is judged to have made contributions to the system, and 4,000 points are awarded, and the possession function is enabled."
Lin Mo was delighted to hear that he had been awarded so many points. He was even more delighted to hear that a new function had been activated, and asked, "System, please tell me in detail what this possession function does."
"Ding, the possession function is that when the host draws a character's skill through various means, and his comprehension of this skill exceeds 80%, he can choose to possess that character, and at the same time temporarily master all of that character's skills. The time is 1 minute for a 1-star character with 200 points. At the same time, the possessed character will have a certain amplification effect on the host's realm."
"Then system, please check my skills and the person I can possess."
"Ding, testing in progress. Test successful. The character skills drawn by the host are Jiang Xiaoyu's Blood Killing Blade and Cheng Kun's Phantom Yin Finger."
Lin Mo asked in confusion: "Then whose copy of the Nine Yin Manual Part 1 and Bodhi Sword Skills are they?"
The system replied: "Ding, when the host passes the mission or triggers a special branch, there is a chance that he will directly obtain a technique without a possessed character, so the Nine Yin Manual Part 1 and Bodhi Sword Technique are separate techniques without a possessed character."
Lin Mo could only say : "Then you can now test my current understanding of the Blood Killing Blade and the Phantom Yin Finger."
The system replied: "Testing, Blood Killing Blade comprehension is 87%, Phantom Yin Finger comprehension is 12%"
Lin Mo couldn't help but sighed, "Sure enough, only the Blood Killing Blade has arrived. I didn't expect the comprehension of the Phantom Yin Finger to be so low. But that's right, I just got this technique not long ago. If I want Jiang Xiaoyu to possess me now, I remember that Jiang Xiaoyu is a two-and-a-half-star character, so it should be 500 points per minute, right?"
The system said: "Ding, the host answered correctly. The possessed character is Jiang Xiaoyu in the peak state of the new peerless twins three."
Lin Mo couldn't help but nod when he heard this. After all, Jiang Xiaoyu in The Twins III was the strongest in all movies, TV shows, novels and games. He could even split mountains and rocks with one sword. He couldn't help but nod.
Then he did not hesitate any more and stepped into the gate of the underground palace. He suddenly felt dizzy and found himself in a hall. All the people who were outside the underground palace were in the hall, standing in groups of three or four, alert to each other.
Beside Lin Mo were Li Shu and Yun Tianqing. Li Shu asked, "Brother Lin, why did you come in so late? I thought you were not coming."
Lin Mo said: "I just studied the situation of the gate. This should be a teleportation formation. We are now far away from the scope of Jinyang City, and we are not even in the territory of the Great Mo Dynasty."
At this time, the door behind him closed, and a voice sounded: "The underground palace trial is about to begin. It has been confirmed that the door to the underground palace will be closed."
At the same time, another voice sounded in Lin Mo's mind; "Ding, congratulations on triggering the side quest, Battle for the Underground Palace. Winning the first place in the Underground Palace will earn you 3,000 points. There is no penalty for failure."
