Versatile Sword Cultivator

Chapter 120 – Otaku

Lin Jichen was originally quite happy.

But upon closer inspection, he realized that out of the five Mysterious Grade items, only one was usable by him.

[Mysterious Grade · Tide Singing Robe]: Defense +35, Water and Fire Resistance +10, Toughness +12%, comes with the skill [Azure Sea Tide Song].

Azure Sea Tide Song: Allows free movement and attack in water for 30 minutes, cooldown time 12 hours.

Requirements: None.

...

The other four Mysterious Grade items included a bow, a knife, a martial art for spear cultivators, and a spirit skill for finger cultivators.

Finger cultivation is a type of body cultivation. He thought about giving it to Ren Lan, but that crazy woman was a fist cultivator.

Body cultivation, like artifact cultivation, is divided into many types.

There are palm, fist, finger, leg, and other subtypes, including branches like Buddhist cultivation and ghost cultivation.

The professions in Tale of Immortal are mainly divided into four categories, but each category has many sub-branches.

Moreover, with future game updates, more professions will be added.

For example, artifact cultivation will add hammer cultivation, where players wield giant hammers, smashing enemies into meat patties with great force.

Healer will add musicians, specializing in control and amplification, which are highly sought after.

In short, there are many professions.

These four Mysterious Grade items were not for him.

Among the twenty-odd Spirit Grade items, there were three for sword cultivators, but Lin Jichen wasn't interested in any of them.

Lin Jichen didn't get discouraged; he still had the grand prize to open.

He first looked at the lucky bags dropped at his feet, a total of two.

Lin Jichen opened one, and another Mysterious Grade item popped out, a healer's spirit skill.

[Mysterious Grade Spirit Skill · Purify the World]: A group purification skill that instantly removes all negative statuses from allies within a 30-meter radius, including fear, control, slow, healing ban, bleeding, etc.

Cooldown time: 60 minutes, Mana cost: 1100 points.

Requirements: Spiritual Grace 30 or above, Foundation Establishment Realm healer.

This skill was very precious; group purification was extremely rare in the early stages of the game.

Lin Jichen really wanted it, but he had already told others he only wanted sword cultivator items, so he didn't feel right asking for it.

Not disheartened, Lin Jichen opened another lucky bag, and it was another Mysterious Grade item, one he could use.

[Mysterious Grade Martial Art: Wind and Thunder Slash]: Charges at a target within 10 meters, slashing like wind and thunder, ignoring slow effects, dealing 700 points of damage, and increasing self-speed by 50% for 5 seconds.

Cooldown time: 5 minutes, Mana cost: 500 points.

Requirements: Root Bone 50 or above, Foundation Establishment Realm sword cultivator.

....

This is great!

Charging at the opponent to deal damage while boosting his own speed, it's like Phantom Step with added damage.

Moreover, the speed boost from Wind and Thunder Slash is unmatched by Phantom Step.

With this, he now has two forced instant movement skills.

His flexibility greatly increased.

After opening the lucky bags, only the Corpse King's Soul Burial Mound remained.

With a sense of anticipation, Lin Jichen walked over.

Jiang Luoyu didn't expect Lin Jichen hadn't opened the Corpse King's Soul Burial Mound yet; she thought he would have picked up the Corpse King's equipment first before coming to help.

Who could resist the Soul Burial Mound of the Corpse King?

Lin Jichen didn't. He even ignored the Corpse King's equipment and rushed over to help at full speed.

Seeing this, Jiang Luoyu's gaze softened as she looked at Lin Jichen's back.

Lin Jichen opened the Corpse King's Soul Burial Mound, and four Mysterious Grade items and seven Spirit Grade items popped out.

There were no higher Earth Grade items.

However, among the four Mysterious Grade items, there were two he could use.

[Mysterious Grade Heart Method · Bloodthirsty Heart Sutra]: Strength +10%, Critical Hit +20%, and each attack restores 1% of self-health.

Requirements: Root Bone 55 points or above.

...

[Mysterious Grade · Spring Thunder Belt]: Vitality +1500, Defense +15, Toughness +7%, comes with the skill [Blood Pool].

Blood Pool: Can store 3000 points of vitality, which can be used to replenish health even in combat. Once depleted, cooldown time is 24 hours.

...

In total, Lin Jichen could get four Mysterious Grade items, which was a huge gain.

Much better than the last time at Night Cave Ghost Ridge.

He checked the public frequency for all the equipment from the Secret Realm.

In team Secret Realms, you can't hide anything; any equipment picked up is displayed in the public frequency and distributed by the team leader.

After everyone picked up their items, they tallied the loot.

A total of eleven Mysterious Grade items, over a hundred Spirit Grade items, and more than seven hundred Ordinary Grade items!

This is Corpse King Valley, the largest team Secret Realm currently, the more people, the more equipment.

Of course, if you only had a hundred people, you wouldn't have this drop rate.

Actually, it was already pretty good, considering this time over five thousand people attacked Corpse King Valley, and there were less than a thousand pieces of equipment.

Many members didn't get anything.

"As agreed, I'll take these four items I can use, and the rest of the sword cultivator equipment is yours."

Lin Jichen said to Jiang Luoyu.

Jiang Luoyu shook her head and said, "These eleven Mysterious Grade items and the sword cultivator equipment, you should take them all. They rightfully belong to you."

Lin Jichen smiled and said, "Don't be like that. Your guild needs strength the most right now. I can't take everything. You know what these Mysterious Grade items mean. Besides, we had an agreement. Don't make me look too greedy. It's decided, let's exit the instance!"

After saying this, Lin Jichen was the first to leave the Secret Realm.

Jiang Luoyu stood there, stunned for a second, then a smile appeared on her face.

She then called all the members to leave the Secret Realm.

As soon as they exited, the game announcement sounded.

"Congratulations to 'Moon Shadow Guild' for completing the first Hell-level Corpse King Valley Secret Realm! All members receive 2000 reputation points! Each member's Root Bone +1, Spiritual Grace +1! Wishing all players a prosperous martial path!"

Wow!

The entire server was in an uproar again!

Hell-level Corpse King Valley had been cleared!

And it was Moon Shadow Guild again!

This time, Moon Shadow became famous once more.

First Night Cave Ghost Ridge, now Corpse King Valley.

Two first clears, both achieved by Moon Shadow Guild.

What does this represent? Moon Shadow is ahead of all other guilds, leaving them in the dust!

In Yongning Province, the War God Guild, still struggling with Corpse King Valley, almost spat blood upon hearing the news.

They were clearly the closest to clearing it, the only guild to have defeated the ninth wave of the corpse tide.

Yet they were still surpassed.

Unacceptable.

The president of War God Guild was devastated on the spot.

Only Moon Shadow Guild in Corpse King Valley was in a state of jubilation.

Lin Jichen was once again surrounded by the guild's girls.

The crowd of girls almost drowned Lin Jichen.

"Haha! President, we won again! You're one step closer to your goal!"

Su Wanling and Jiang Luoyu hugged each other.

Jiang Luoyu's eyes, however, were always on Lin Jichen, who was surrounded by Moon Shadow members.

Seeing Lin Jichen looking dazed and distressed amidst the thousands of girls, like a confused goose.

She laughed.

Finally, Lin Jichen managed to break free from the crowd. He said to Jiang Luoyu, "President Jiang, I'll be off now. See you around."

After saying this, Lin Jichen quickly soared into the sky and disappeared.

"This guy is really strange. Could he be... an otaku?" Su Wanling muttered.

"What's an otaku?" Jiang Luoyu asked curiously.

"Don't you think Lin Jichen seems uninterested in girls?"

"Ah?" Jiang Luoyu looked surprised.

Really? It does seem so...
