Chapter 408: All gods like to have a mount
The spiritual energy near Frost Feather City began to surge towards Lu Xun and Ye Sui'an at an extremely fast speed. The surging spiritual energy turned into a vortex of spiritual energy around them, and was then digested and absorbed by the two.
Logically speaking, Ye Sui'an had already reached the peak of the third realm, and if he made another breakthrough now, he would enter the fourth realm.
This is not a small breakthrough, it is a leap in strength.
Therefore, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that he attracted was particularly powerful, and the vortex of spiritual energy was also particularly large, which seemed quite impressive.
The players were all shocked at first, because they could also feel the flow of spiritual energy, but they didn’t expect that Ye Sui’an could do this!
This kid is so terrifying!
After Lu Xun clicked [Upgrade], the scene immediately changed.
Although Lu Xun only upgraded from level 38 to level 39, his quantity is huge!
Every time he made a breakthrough, he spent an absurd amount of experience points, but the spiritual power he gained was also much greater than that of practitioners at the same level!
Therefore, the surrounding spiritual energy could be said to be pouring into his body madly, and the spiritual energy vortex was even larger than Ye Sui'an's.
The players whose attention was previously attracted by Ye Sui'an quickly looked at Lu Xun again, including Lu Xiaoyu who was not far away.
"The Purple Palace has also broken through! And the scene seems to be even more spectacular!"
"Wow! The protagonist of the world is so impressive!"
"His [Breakthrough Special Effect] looks very luxurious, and is completely different from our poor version."
"This is so cool! If I could get this kind of special effect by paying, I would pay any amount of money!"
Lu Xiaoyu stared blankly at Lu Xun, whose black hair fluttered in the wind, and was distracted for a moment.
The ghost in front of her suddenly knocked the flying sword away, which allowed Lu Xiaoyu to come back to her senses.
It’s a pity that this ghost is very fast, and she is afraid that she will lose some blood.
"Be careful." A gentle voice sounded at this moment.
A man in a black robe suddenly appeared in front of Lu Xiaoyu. He raised his right hand and pointed lightly at the ghost. With a flick of his finger, a black wall of fire appeared out of thin air, preventing the ghost from moving forward.
Lu Xun, who had reached level 39, was in great shape. After protecting Lu Yu, he did not kill the ghost instantly to prevent Lu Yu from gaining any experience points.
Ye Sui'an also opened his eyes at this moment and immediately flew to Lu Xun's side.
He had just broken through to the fourth level and was in a very good mood.
Then, he found out that Senior Lu had also made a breakthrough, and for a moment... he felt even happier! He was even happier than when he himself had made a breakthrough!
At this moment, Lu Xun took a look at the black ghost energy rising around him and felt a little puzzled.
"Why didn't this ghost king split into lower-level ghosts after I killed him?"
Soon, he discovered something was wrong.
These ghostly auras are actually condensing in the air!
This is... shipped! ?
It is obvious that this is the rhythm of "exposing materials"!
Since "Tianchen" is a highly realistic game, there is no such thing as a player going out and killing a wild boar and getting an iron sword.
Generally speaking, when you kill monsters like ghosts, what drops are materials instead of equipment.
There is a chance of getting equipment when killing aliens, but the practitioners of Tianchen Continent cannot use them and can only refine them and use them as materials.
Looking at the ghost bead slowly , Lu Xun felt a little regretful.
Because he is not short of money now.
What materials doesn't Third Brother have? I prefer experience points!
If you split into a low-level ghost king, I can still kill you again!
Lu Xun, who has a very rich family, has a completely different state of mind than before.
After a [Superior Grade Ghost Pearl] condensed in the air, Lu Xun raised his hand and the black pearl fell into his palm.
The beads were about the size of quail eggs, and felt a little cold and a little damp, which was very strange.
It is obviously dry, but it feels a little sticky and not silky.
There is a black air flow surging inside it. If you look closely, it looks like a black, misty ghost face.
This ghost face looks somewhat ferocious and somewhat... ugly.
Of course, the abundant Yin energy in the beads is still very practical. This kind of ghost bead is a top-quality material for refining bead-type magic weapons. For example, the Yin bead that the scabbard swallowed must have been refined from a ghost bead.
Lu Xun looked down at the scabbard and asked, "Do you need it?"
The black rope on the scabbard floated up, pointed inside the scabbard, and swung left and right.
Lu Xun, who had mastered the tenth level of Sheath Language, understood its meaning immediately .
——I suggest you put it in, but it doesn't work for me.
The scabbard has been upgraded to the upper purple grade. If it is upgraded further, it will be orange grade.
A mere top-grade ghost bead is completely useless to it. It would be a waste of energy even if it absorbs the energy.
"In that case, let's go to the Treasure Pavilion and sell this ghost bead. I'll exchange it for some spirit stones and buy some equipment and skill books."
The equipment was naturally prepared for Lu Yu, and of course, some should also be given to Xiao Long, after all, she took good care of Lu Yu on a daily basis.
As for the skill book, it’s because the Baidi account hasn’t appeared in any activities for a long time.
The players have just finished a big battle and have plenty of experience points.
The leeks are ripe, it would be a pity not to cut them.
What's more, the skills that Lu Xun taught were all at reasonable prices. He took the route of small profits but quick turnover. Anyway, there were enough players, so he didn't have to worry about sales.
Therefore, this is not actually a pitfall for players. On the contrary, it helps players improve their combat effectiveness!
This is equivalent to a virtuous cycle.
Players kill aliens, then learn reasonable skills to become stronger, then kill more aliens, and then learn stronger skills...
After all, it may take more time and energy for players to learn skills through other channels, and the experience points required are basically the same, which is completely unnecessary.
As for Lu Xun, he would pay some of the spirit stones given to him by his third senior brother in the process, but in the end he would only earn a few billion experience points, which was not worth mentioning.
The main purpose is to contribute to Tianchen Continent!
In this way, everyone gained happiness.
“Everyone’s well is the real well.” Lu Xun recited this classic advertising line in his mind.
Of course, this virtuous cycle is not very friendly to aliens.
But... who cares?
After Lu Xun placed the bead into the scabbard, he began to randomly kill the low-level ghosts and monsters nearby.
He specifically left the ones that were closer to Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Longbao, and he only killed those that were farther away.
With a flick of the sword energy from his fingertips, he could kill ghosts and monsters far away. His movements were casual and unrestrained, a bit like Huang Lao Xie's [Finger Magic] in The Legend of the Condor Heroes and The Return of the Condor Heroes.
However, strictly speaking, if Huang Lao Xie's finger-snapping magic did not have special effects, what is the difference between it and flicking marbles in the air?
Therefore, we have to mention again the often-said saying: "A handsome man is also handsome when playing marbles!"
When all the nearby ghosts and monsters died, a prompt message "Mission Completed" popped up in front of Lu Xun.
He waited for a moment and found that the task was not triggered. This meant that the [Defending the Lonely City] task had been completely completed and no ghosts would appear here in the near future.
"What a pity." Lu Xun thought in his heart.
Of course, this was just a joke, because he had more important things to do next.
——Destroy the alien altar here!
Lu Xun couldn't guess when the next large-scale invasion of aliens would happen, after all, there was no pattern.
However, it would be a good idea to demolish a few more altars.
By that time, a group of aliens had already prepared for teleportation, but they found that the teleportation array on the other end was destroyed, and they could not get through. They could only go to the entrance of other teleportation arrays to queue up again. They would probably be messy in the wind, right?
Of course, this was just a joke made by the stupid players in the previous life after they dismantled the altar. No one knew what the situation was like on the alien side, after all, no one had ever been there.
In the previous life, some players speculated that the subsequent plot might be that the Tianchen Continent fought back towards the world where the aliens lived!
Now that all the ghosts had been killed, Lu Xun glanced at Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Longbao, and directly settled the tasks he had given them before.
Each of them gained 150,000 experience points, and at the same time, they also received a paper crane made by Lu Xun himself.
When Lu Xun took out the paper crane in public, he clearly saw the two girls' eyes light up.
At the same time, the surrounding players exclaimed in surprise.
That little look, I'm so envious of them all.
You know, a flying magic weapon is almost equivalent to a mount.
As we all know, mounts are very popular no matter what game it is.
Who doesn’t like riding something pretty?
What's more, this is a paper crane produced in the back mountain of the Demon Sect, and it is particularly exquisite.
At first, a group of sword servants were delighted to get the paper cranes, but they posted videos showing off on the forum for several days in a row, which made a group of players jealous.
At this moment, Lu Xun waved his hand lightly, and the small paper crane in his palm flapped its wings and flew to the palms of Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Longbao.
"The president and vice president are so lucky! They were able to trigger the Purple Palace mission! And they were even rewarded with paper cranes!"
"I want it too. If I didn't know that the president is actually a rich and beautiful woman, I would have offered her a price to buy it from her."
"Damn! With this paper crane, can't I just pick up any girl in the game?"
"Yeah, it's really a great tool for picking up girls. Look at the other female players, their envious eyes, wow."
Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Longbao held the paper cranes in their hands and couldn't let go.
They didn't know that there was a mark of Lu Xun's spiritual consciousness left on the paper crane.
This makes it convenient for Lu Xun to locate them from a distance.
This is also one of his purposes.
Lu Xun was going to look for the alien altar near Frost Feather City next, and he was not planning to bring Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Longbao with him.
Because there is no need.
Although they have been resurrected, nothing will really happen to them even if they encounter danger, but they won't get any benefits either.
The two of them are too weak at the moment. Even if Lu Xun wants to share some of the rewards for dismantling the altar with them, they probably won’t be able to do it.
It would be better for me to act alone and have a short separation.
There is a mark of divine consciousness on the paper crane, so he can always find Lu Yu and there is no need to panic.
As for his own safety... With [Sword Qi Near] by his side, Lu Xun feels very safe. He feels that the world is so big, there is no place that he, Lu, cannot go.
Even if there are aliens hiding in the altar, he is not at all vulnerable.
By then, we can easily turn the aliens into sprinkler trucks, making them scream and spray water.
Well, I mean crying loudly.
"Everyone, let's say goodbye now!" Lu Xun said loudly to everyone present.
The next moment, he disappeared.
Lu Xiaoyu looked at Lu Xun who suddenly disappeared, and for some reason, she felt a little lost.
And in the next second, she felt a slight touch on her head, and she didn't even know if it was an illusion.
That was when Lu Xun gently touched her head when he left.
No one saw it.
