Immortal Dao Fruits, Cards to Help Me

Chapter 26 From this day forward, I am no longer a mortal!
【Green-scaled snakeskin】

Tier 2 Material Card

The skin of a large, highly venomous, green-scaled snake, as thick as a bowl, has many uses.

Evaluation: It could be made into protective gear to protect against poison.

[Green fangs in the snake's mouth]

2nd-order magic weapon
The fangs of the Azure Scale Serpent are transformed from its venomous teeth and can be launched at enemies to poison them. If not removed, the poison can be applied up to five times.

Evaluation: This is a very basic magical artifact; there is still room for improvement.

【Golden Eye Ring (Green)】

Tier 2 equipment
+2 perception
Golden Eyes: The equipment can see through clouds and mist.

Comment: They see through each other but don't say anything, and can still be friends.

【Red Flame Feather (Green)】

Second-order materials
Only golden pheasants over ten years old can grow this species, which possesses the fire element and is a rare material.

Evaluation: Little by little, great things come to those who help themselves.

This is Chen Xiuxian's eighth "fire feather".

This is only what we've gained on the first day!

There was no way around it, Chen Xiuxian was really risking his life!

Nearly five hours had passed in the day, and Chen Xiuxian had been injured six times. He had taken two Qi and Blood Pills (white) and one Qi-Boosting Pill (white), which he had never been willing to take before.

The sun is now only a sliver of its light hanging on the mountaintop; night is about to fall.

Looking up at Jiming Mountain, one sees layer upon layer of peaks, with the highest peak hidden in the misty haze reddened by the sunset.

However, now that he is equipped with the Golden Eye Ring, Chen Xiuxian's gaze can penetrate the mist and look towards the very top.

Jiming Mountain is two or three thousand meters high, so it's impossible to just climb over it straight. Now that the view isn't obscured by the clouds and fog, we can choose an easier route tomorrow.

He found a big tree, climbed up, and braided several ropes in the dense branches. He then slept in the tree that night.

We didn't dare light a fire for dinner, worried that the light and smell might attract something.

He felt that the injury to his arm had begun to heal, and hoped it wouldn't affect his fighting ability tomorrow.

During the day, he killed thirty or forty "turkeys," as well as some other scattered monsters.

In addition to the "surprise attack" mentioned above, I also acquired four white cards and two green cards.

The white feather cloak is a wide-sleeved, belted garment worn as an outer layer. It features extensive feather decorations on the collar and cuffs, making it very stylish!
Unfortunately, it doesn't add any attributes at all, not even a little bit of "defense"!

Purely decorative!
【Fast-Soled Ten-Side Shoes (White)】, +2% movement speed.

The shoes have a round opening and a black and white striped pattern on the upper, and are a type of shoe often worn by monks and nuns.

【White Chicken Meat】X18, Ingredient. Long-term consumption can nourish blood and qi, and boost courage.

【Crowing (White)】, Skill Card, Imitate a rooster's crowing?!

[Willpower Card (Green)], +1 Willpower
[Martial Arts Skill - Flying Pounce (Green)]

Tier 2 Martial Arts Card

Learn the martial art of the flying pounce.

Leap high into the air and deliver a powerful blow to the enemy from above—with a power of X2.2. It also has a certain probability of stunning the enemy, reducing their willpower, making them stunned, stiff, and unable to resist.

Comment: High-level players beating low-level players, beating idiots!

……

The battle on the second day was even more brutal, as they had reached the heart of Jiming Mountain.

The monsters here are of a higher level, so Chen Xiuxian can no longer treat himself as a hunter and fight monsters like he did yesterday.

Because the Qi and Blood Pill (white) is almost finished!
Fortunately, I had saved up 14 "Fire Feathers", which was enough.

This is the downside of time travel; Chen Xiuxian still hasn't found a place that sells [Qi and Blood Pill (White)].

How can ordinary wound medicine compare to the effects of elixirs?

Wound medicine can at most stop bleeding, reduce inflammation, and accelerate healing. But taking [Qi Xue Dan (white)] will make you almost completely healed in half an hour at most.

This is still the lowest grade of elixir!

Those are more advanced, with better effects—of course, most players wouldn't dare to consume them normally.

Many players, while leveling up, engage in "side hustles," such as crafting swords, refining treasures, alchemy, and drawing talismans—all essential skills. Unfortunately, Chen Xiuxian hasn't found a "craftsmanship teacher" yet. Ah! He'll have to break through to the mortal realm first!
By the afternoon of the second day, Chen Xiuxian was already able to walk out of the foot of Jiming Mountain, leave the Illusionary Spirit Realm and go to the human world to complete the breakthrough mission.

But as I said before, this is a rare opportunity!

The monsters here are high-level, give a lot of experience points, and have a high drop rate. Try to drag it out until the last minute to gain more advantages.

On the afternoon of the third day, Chen Xiuxian passed through a stone archway, and in an instant, the scenery changed.

It no longer feels desolate; the dirt road underfoot is now neat and orderly, and there are more man-made buildings in the distance.

"Ding~ You have completed the breakthrough mission [Crossing Jinji Ridge (Green)], and you have broken through to the mortal realm. You can continue to improve your character level."

With the system notification in his ear, Chen Xiuxian's vision changed once again.

When he opened his eyes again, he was already in the house he rented in Wadang Fort.

He tiptoed out of bed, opened the window and looked at the moon... It felt like only about an hour had passed since he closed his eyes to sleep.

Looking at his arm again, the blood-stained gauze was still there, and the character's experience value read: 18463.

Three days of fighting and hunting in the dungeon is equivalent to more than ten days of hard work in normal times!
Then look at the card bar—a whole bunch!

"Huh ~ cool!"

It was definitely worth all that hard work!

Brothers, who understands this feeling of reaping what you sow, of getting great rewards for your hard work?
10级升11级，需要7600历练值，11升12级需要8700历练值，一口气了！
"Ding~ Your level has increased to 11..."

"Ding~ Your level has increased to 12..."

As for the cultivation technique, the [Changhong Heart Method (Blue)] was already at level 9/9 before.

The [Treasure Bottle Qi (Green)] skill I switched to in the training panel is already at level 5/5. I took advantage of this opportunity to farm monsters in the Breakthrough Dungeon and maxed out the [Yin Yang Treasure Bottle Qi (Blue)] skill to level 8/8!
I've only had them for less than a week, and they're already both fully booked!
Chen Xiuxian is now at level 12, having transcended the realm of mortals.

后天属性：臂力25、体质25、灵敏25、感知25、意志19
Qi and blood value is as high as 1060/1060!

True Qi value is 870/870
This is far beyond the level of ordinary monsters. Even level 17 or 18 NPCs don't necessarily have as much health, energy, or stats as him!
Even the merit points are 188!

Unfortunately, to refine this [Red Light Fire Feather (Green)] into a magic weapon, one needs a level 1 "Refining Treasure" skill.

This is easy to learn in the game, but it's not so easy to learn now.

There's no solution yet!
Do you see what this has caused?

Regardless of the circumstances, Chen Xiuxian's strength more than doubled overnight!
With Chen Xiuxian's current strength, he could probably be considered a near-second-rate master in the martial arts world.

He mastered the superior internal energy cultivation method and the superior swordsmanship, possessing extraordinary personal attributes and talents far exceeding those of ordinary people.

Generally, only middle-aged people in their thirties or forties with good qualifications, background, and luck can achieve this.

If someone reaches near-second-rate status in their early twenties, they must have exceptional talent, some extraordinary encounter, or have mastered some divine skill.

If Chen Xiuxian were to go into the martial arts world now, he would be considered a big shot.

They should at least give him a nickname like "Jade-Faced Asura" or "Flying Rainbow Hero"!
However, this world is ultimately a world of immortals and heroes, and for ordinary people, the chivalrous figures who can move freely and swiftly are already considered extraordinary.

However, even those people struggled against the lowest-level spirits, and found it even more difficult to fight against the slightly more powerful ones.

We need to amend the law!
Of course, the Great Shun Dynasty had been established for over six hundred years, and the interior of the pass had been developed by the human race for thousands of years, unlike the Liaodong region outside the pass, where if you don't encounter three or five "supernatural events" every year, you're considered lucky.

The area inside the pass is more peaceful, with fewer incidents involving spirits and ghosts, but many more man-made disasters.

However, Emperor Kangchang of the Great Shun Dynasty, Fang Yi, had previously made three trips to the south of the Yangtze River, embraced Buddhism and Taoism, engaged in large-scale construction projects, incited factional strife, and caused the struggle for succession among his nine sons... leading to public outrage and widespread suffering, ultimately forcing him to abdicate six years ago.

As a result, many ghostly and strange events have occurred in the heart of the Central Plains over the past decade or so.

More than 20 years ago, when the current retired emperor, Emperor Kangchang, was in the midst of his diligent reign, many people had not heard of any ghostly or supernatural events for many years.

But now, I hear three to five similar stories every month.

There are even sensational stories about weddings and funerals where a strange wind would sweep away the bride's sedan chair in broad daylight.

According to the game developers, this is naturally to increase gameplay.

The official sources even revealed long ago that a "major catastrophe" would occur in the second major version!
Demons and monsters roam freely, and various reclusive sects and masters will begin to take on disciples—players are officially entering the era of cultivation on a large scale!
I imagine life would have been even harder for ordinary people back then!
Chen Xiuxian stood by the window with his hands behind his back, gazing at the bright moonlight illuminating the small courtyard, lost in thought for a moment.

Suddenly transported to another world, facing imminent danger, he had no choice but to make rapid progress.

But I've never thought about what I'm here to do.

Even now, I still don't have a clear goal.

"However, increasing our strength is definitely the right thing to do. If we don't have a goal, we can just level up and look for one at the same time!" he laughed.
