Chapter 8: Bronze Rank Inheritance Severed Blade

  Kids, rest assured and collect them! Welcome to all kinds of nourishment~~ I will definitely not disappoint everyone! This book is being signed, congratulations to this master! Haha~~~

  I am the most beautiful separator line

  "Huh?"

  "Huh?"

  The devil's fire was like a thick green goo, burning in patches on the ground. Many shrubs and giant trees used it as nutrients, growing into towering black trees that pierced the clouds.

  Lin Jie walked alone on the mountain footpath, which was also the only road that could be walked on foot.

  The shape of the Dark Summit is similar to that of Baifeng Mountain, with dozens of peaks rising high and low, each peak having a fierce gale. His target was at the central peak...

  About 300 meters ahead, all that could be seen were the dark green leaves and the howling wind. Lin Jie tore off a few leaves and threw them into the air, the leaves rotated in the air and slowly floated upwards.

  It's now! Lin Jie activated the Featherfall Gem, and his entire body floated up like a cotton flower, drifting away with the wind.

  The wind direction suddenly changed, Lin Jie fell with a thud and heavily landed on the ground.

  －80！

  "Damn it." Lin Jie furrowed his brow, eating a bread to restore his health. Climbing the dark peak was fraught with danger, and just this short distance had almost gotten him killed; if he went any higher, wouldn't he be smashed to pieces? Now that he was only level 3, the gap between him and his past life was too great; he had to be extremely careful everywhere he went.

  The wind direction on the mountain changes every 10 minutes, and the direction is random. Lin Jie needs a northerly wind, but just waiting for the wind direction to change would take an extremely long time, unlike in his past life where he could simply tear off a high-level wind elemental scroll to change the wind direction.

  Wait!

  Even if it takes a lot of time to get the broken blade, he still has to wait! That is his proud capital and also the greatest regret of his previous life.

  For a full 3 hours, there was no satisfactory change in wind direction. In fact, for as long as 30 minutes, the winds were due south.

  "Whoosh——"

  The leaves suddenly floated up and rose quite a bit.

  Lin Jie's eyes lit up, and the wind suddenly grew stronger, with leaves shooting up into the air like rockets.

  Feather Fall Technique! Lin Jie's body became light, and he instantly flew up. This time the wind force was unexpectedly strong. Lin Jie had originally planned to float to the lowest mountain peak first and then gradually jump upwards. With this momentum, it was likely that he would be blown directly to the top! He spread his arms to maintain balance as much as possible, his eyes fixed on a mountain peak where he could land.

  In the blink of an eye, the lowest mountain peak has disappeared from view. The second one, the third one...

  Suddenly

  The wind direction changed again, and Lin Jie suddenly felt a strong force coming from the right side. His body tilted to one side, losing balance and falling! He endured the howling black wind by his ear, tearing open the Transformation Scroll. Target of the spell: Himself!

  A puff of smoke rose, Lin Jie transformed into a small sheep, his maximum health reduced to 1 point, unable to attack or move. He was blown by the wind towards a mountain peak and heavily crashed onto the ground.

  －1！

  The spell of transformation into a sheep is lifted!

  Lin Jie rolled on the ground for several rounds before barely stopping, with gravel piercing his skin and taking away a large amount of health. He adjusted his breathing to calm down as quickly as possible, observing his surroundings. Since there were dozens of mountain peaks at the top of the dark, they were named directly by number, so this one should be San Shan, or the third highest peak.

  Lin Jie did not come here when he reached the peak in his previous life, as it was not within the coverage of any wind direction unless there was a sudden change in wind direction. However, that also foretold death, but now he has coincidentally arrived at San Shan.

  Several crimson fruits rolled in front of him, and Lin Jie's eyes lit up. These were Blood Pomegranates, a fruit that each player could only consume twice in their lifetime. Its properties were simple: permanent attribute increase. High-quality Blood Pomegranates selling for tens or even hundreds of thousands was a common occurrence, and in his past life, there was even one that increased critical hit rate by 2% which sold for the astronomical price of 1 million.

  Blood Orange: Strength +10.

  Blood Orange: Movement Speed +5.

  Lin Jie raised his head and looked in the direction where the Blood Peach had rolled, his pupils suddenly shrinking: it was actually a large tree covered with Blood Peaches! Blood Peaches were always randomly refreshed in treacherous places, could there be a fixed fruit tree? If he could eat all the fruits... Of course, this was just a thought, but Lin Jie's breathing also quickened.

  Walking up to the Blood Orange tree, Lin Jie carefully observed each one. He could only eat two blood oranges, so he had to find the ones with the best properties. The rest were packed up and taken away to be sold!

  Increases attack power, increases lock success rate, and even has charm value added, Blood Jade Fruit is all-powerful.

  Blood Orange: Critical Hit Rate +2%

  Blood Orange: Critical Hit Rate +3%

  Lin Jie stared at the fruit in his hand in surprise, after 7 years this was a fruit worth over 10 million! He didn't think that he could also be extravagant for once, and with one bite devour hundreds of millions. Lin Jie couldn't help but smile, as he swallowed two Blood Orange Fruits, a warm current spread throughout his limbs, increasing his critical hit rate by 5%.

  Nothing is yours until you swallow it!

  Just as he was about to pack it with the blood orange and take it away, the entire tree suddenly rotted, and the blood orange also turned into a blood-like substance that gradually condensed and transformed into a soft mud-like monster with a human face, which was terrifying.

  Blood Oath: Level 20 Elite, HP????

  Lin Jie hastily retreated several steps, in his past life of 7 years, he had never seen such a monster! He was just about to escape when his body suddenly became uncontrollable! He had eaten the Blood Weng fruit, and within 1000 meters, he would be controlled by the will of the Blood Weng.

  Got it, got it! The Blood Orbs on this mountain are used to hunt players. If you eat the fruit, you'll be swallowed up. As for whether your attributes will be lost or not, that's a different story!

  Feather Fall Technique! Lin Jie activated the Feather Fall Gem, and his body floated up. At this moment, he didn't care about the direction of the wind, and just ran away first! After his body was suspended in mid-air, he finally managed to break free from control and move around. What's terrifying is that, Blood Weng's will actually flew towards Lin Jie like a bat!

  "Down!" The javelin was held in his hand, and with a whooshing sound, it pierced through the disgusting red sticky liquid, deeply embedding itself into the ground. As the wind changed direction, Lin Jie was blown off balance, involuntarily spinning around in circles.

  However, his position is rising! He connected to the spiral airflow of the highest mountain peak and flew upwards in a zigzag manner! The strong wind was like a hemp rope that grabbed Lin Jie's ankle and swung him up violently. The mountain peaks in front of him became sharper and sharper, like a steel pen, and when Lin Jie's body rose to the top, all he saw was a broken blade!

  In his previous life, Lin Jie changed the direction of the wind and flew to this place. He exhausted all his strength but couldn't pull out the broken blade. However, as a Berserker, he could increase his power through self-mutilation. He immediately cut open his wrist, and the blood was all absorbed by the broken blade, causing him to die on the spot. After running back as an undead and dying again, he died a total of three times before finally obtaining it. This is also why Lin Jie waited until he reached level 3 to come and retrieve the broken blade. If his level were too low, he would be directly teleported to the town's church to revive after death.

  Lin Jie found it difficult to get close to the mountain peak, so he exerted himself to throw several capture traps onto the broken blade. The other two were blown away by the wind, and only one trap fell lonely on the broken blade. Lin Jie took out his throwing spear and threw it in all directions.

  The most terrifying thing at the peak of darkness is the violent gusts, which are unpredictable and possess immense power. Lin Jie's javelin was blown back by the wind the moment he threw it, instantly piercing his own abdomen, and he himself flew backward, toward the broken blade.

  But at this time, the wind direction changed again!

  Displacement scroll! Lin Jie tore open the scroll and moved 3 meters towards the broken blade, standing accurately on top of it. However, the strong wind was about to blow him away. At this moment, the capture trap took effect, locking Lin Jie in place for 2 seconds and causing him to lose 20 points of health.

  －5！－5！……

  Lin Jie rolled his eyes and farted.

  It's already quite impressive that he managed to hold on until now after being battered by the wind for so long and self-mutilating. His soul appeared in the graveyard, while his body's blood was being wildly drunk by Duan Xun.

  After the player dies, a soul appears and the level decreases by 1. The soul then appears at the graveyard. Finding one's own corpse allows for resurrection, but there is a 2-minute weakness state with all attributes decreased by 90%. If a priest uses a resurrection spell, the experience penalty is reduced by 50% to 100% based on the skill level of the resurrection spell.

  Of course, if the corpse can't be found, such as falling into lava or being surrounded by monsters, you can choose to resurrect at the graveyard. The level will drop by 2 levels or more, weakness for 1 hour, and equipment durability will return to zero. If it's a red name, the penalty is even greater.

  Lin Jie gazed at the pitch-black Soul Realm and sprinted towards the peak of darkness. In a soul state, a character's movement speed would increase, their body weight would be zero, equivalent to an infinitely sustained Feather Fall technique, but it could still be controlled by oneself.

  As Lin Jie stood at the edge of the corpse, a prompt appeared: "Do you want to revive now?"

  Light faded, Lin Jie stood on the broken blade, his unhealed wound bleeding again, and was absorbed by the broken blade once more. Less than half a minute later, Lin Jie died again.

  Seven hours had passed since Lin Jie's search for the Dark Apex, and Duan Ren finally had its fill of blood, letting out a satisfied clear ring. Lin Jie was overjoyed, grasping Duan Ren with one hand and fiercely lifting it...

  "Bang——"

  The dark summit was shaking violently, the fierce wind condensed into a demon's ghostly face. Lin Jie gritted his teeth and used all his strength to pull out the broken blade from the rock wall, spinning it in mid-air several times before landing in front of him.

  "Reunited, old friend." Lin Jie's hands were filled with deep emotions as he touched the broken blade, which was like a piece of scrap iron, its surface rough and covered in sticky mineral deposits and traces of devilish flames. Only one blood groove remained intact, at the bottom of which a drop of fresh blood swayed back and forth.
