Chapter 001: A Clichéd Beginning
Zi Lei slowly walked towards Feng Xiang, his eyes fixed on the small Qilin under his feet.
"If I'm not mistaken, the birth of the Five Elements Saint Kirin also originated from your Chaotic Blood. Your body should possess five attributes! Or perhaps more."
"But I strangely can't feel the power of Qilin on its body, otherwise, even a newly born Five Elements Sacred Qilin would be much stronger than me!"
"What? So fierce?" Feng Xiao was shocked. To be stronger than this pervert at birth, and even more so when grown up...
Zi Lei stretched out his hand to pet the little Qilin, but it jumped behind Feng Xiao and hid, while looking at him with a vigilant expression. Zi Lei smiled wryly.
"Hehe, this... " Feng Xiao's face turned slightly red with embarrassment, after all, it was someone else's precious child born after a thousand hardships.
"I knew it from the moment you revived it, but I still thank you. After all, without you, it wouldn't have been born in the first place. The soul contract between you two can only be broken when one of you dies, so I hope you, as the main party, will treat my Linzi well!"
Zi Lei's words were filled with melancholy and reluctance, but he had come to terms with it. Having experienced billions of years of wind and rain, he knew what should be done and what shouldn't.
"Don't worry, it will definitely become my most intimate partner!" Feng Xiao said solemnly.
"Hehe, I believe that with the Chaotic Body, you absolutely won't disappoint. Alright, now I'll fulfill my promise and give you the pure blood you need! Hand over the Spirit Jade Bottle on your body."
"Even knowing what's in my backpack...!" Feng Xiao wiped his sweat and handed the Lingyu bottle to Zilei.
Taking the bottle, Zilei's expression turned serious, one finger slowly pressed onto the purple thunder bead on his forehead - the purple thunder bead burst into radiance, threads of thunder light began to gather slowly towards his fingertips...
"Does it really take so long to collect the essence of blood?"
"Ah! Wait a minute, Qilin Lao Da, can you give me two drops? The Tianlong Emperor is critically ill and needs the essence of blood to be treated!" Feng Xiao almost bumped into the wall, nearly forgetting this hidden task.
Zi Lei didn't respond and seemed unable to speak.
"When you're careless!" Feng Xiao chuckled with a smile.
"Ding, the Holy Qilin of the Five Elements of the Underworld hopes to attach itself to your body. Do you agree?" The sudden system prompt tone almost made Feng Xiao tremble with tension.
"Hmm? Agreed!"
Xiao Qilin let out a loud "Wu Ka" sound, its body transformed into a white light that drilled into Feng Xiao's arm!
"Ding, the Holy Qilin of the Five Elements has successfully recognized you as its master. Please name your pet."
"Uh...... call little...... little......" Feng Xiao had no preparation for naming at all, and began to hesitate what to call it.
"Ding, pet 'Xiao Xiao' named successfully."
Feng Xiao: "......"
"Never mind, it's not too bad."
"Ding, due to the influence of your body's water system ability, your pet Youming Wuxing Sheng Qilin's water system ability has awakened. Water resistance +5%, comprehension skill 'Water Blue Thorn'."
"Ding, due to the influence of the wind system ability within your body, your pet Youming Wuxing Sheng Qilin's wind system ability has awakened. Wind resistance +5%, comprehension skill 'Wind Strangulation'."
"Ding, due to the influence of your inner Fire-type ability, your pet Youming Wuxing Sheng Qilin's Fire-type ability has awakened. Fire resistance +5%, comprehension skill 'Explosive Flame'."
"Ding, due to the influence of your inner Death-type ability, your pet Youming Wuxing Sheng Qilin's Death-type ability has awakened. Death-type resistance +5%, comprehension skill 'Death Arrow'."
"Ding, congratulations to player Fenghun, you have completed the only hidden task 'Qilin Clan's Crisis', obtained the first pet in the Huaxia region of 'Rebirth' - 'Youming Wuxing Shengqilin', and activated the 'Rebirth' pet system. The system will issue a public announcement for the Huaxia region, do you want to reveal your name?"
"No!" Suddenly it was the first pet, just the first pet was a holy beast, would it cause a riot throughout the entire game? Feng Xiao thought with some concern.
"Ding, attention all players in the Huaxia region! Player XX has completed the unique hidden task 'The Crisis of the Qilin Clan' and obtained a level 5 pet 'Yinming Wuxing Shengqilin', rewarded with 1000 gold coins and 300 prestige. The 'Reincarnation' pet system is now open, and the pet ranking list is also open. All players have a certain probability of obtaining pets while killing monsters or completing hidden tasks."
What? A fifth-level pet?
The pets in "Rebirth" are divided into first-class, second-class, third-class, fourth-class, fifth-class, sixth-class, seventh-class, eighth-class, spiritual class, immortal class, divine class, super-divine class, and holy class. The first three classes are ornamental pets, and only from the fourth class onwards do they begin to have attack capabilities. Moreover, with each increase in level, a pet's abilities will grow exponentially. A sixth-class pet is roughly equivalent to the strength of an ordinary player of the same level. Pets above the sixth class are extremely rare, but each one is incredibly powerful, and owning one can rapidly boost one's own strength by several levels.
But unexpectedly, the holy-level pet that was supposed to defy the heavens turned out to be only a fifth-level pet. Feng Xiao was stunned.
"Ding! Congratulations, player Fenghun, your pet Youming Wuxing Shengqilin has ranked on the Pet Ranking List. Would you like to reveal its name?"
"No!"
The wind suddenly called out the pet bar - I must have misheard it.
Empty!?!
Each player can have at most two pets, so there are only two spaces in the pet bar. However, Feng Xiao found that both spaces in his pet bar were empty, but an extra skill "Contract Summon" appeared in the attribute bar.
Contract Summon: Summons a contracted pet to fight. Contracted pets never betray, intimacy never decreases, and can still gain experience when not in battle.
Open "Contract Summoning", and the Five Elements Holy Qilin appears inside.
Yin-Yang Five Elements Holy Qilin: 5-level pet, level: 0. Under the influence of the powerful Chaos Force, the Thunder Qilin that was eroded by the aura of death is re-infused with life and evolves into the Yin-Yang Five Elements Holy Qilin; due to insufficient Chaos Force, the Qilin's power cannot be revived, resulting in the Yin-Yang Five Elements Holy Qilin only having the strength of a 5-level pet.
Attributes: HP 50, MP 80, ATK 25, MATK 40, DEF 25
Innate: Has a certain resistance to magical attacks. All row resistance 5%. Automatically recovers 10 HP and 10 MP per second.
Skill: Water Blue Thorn: Qilin's exclusive water system lowest level magic. Instantly summon a water thorn from the ground to attack a single enemy, consuming 30 magic, no skill cooldown time.
Whirlwind: Exclusive to the Wind element, lowest level magic. Instantly releases a small storm, strangling enemies in a small range. Attack range is 10m diameter of 4m small circle. Consumes 30 magic, no skill cooldown time.
Burst Flame: Qilin's exclusive lowest-level fire magic. Fires a flame bullet to attack a single enemy. Consumes 30 magic, no skill cooldown time.
Death Arrow: Condenses the power of death into an arrow that pierces enemies in a straight line, with a certain chance to trigger instant death. Consumes 30 magic, no skill cooldown time.
Qilin's Wrath: Insufficient ability, not activated.
Wu Se Lin Guang: Insufficient ability, not activated.
Is the power of Chaos insufficient?
Feng Xiao cried, if I had known it would be like this, I should have splashed a few drops of the Chaotic Blood on him at the beginning - being stingy for a moment actually turned an ultimate fighter into a useless piece of junk!
Qilin's 0-level skills are numerous, all of which are magical attacks. The most astonishing thing is that they don't require chanting or cooldowns - but its basic attributes make Feng want to cry tears of sorrow.
