Insufficient balance
Exiting the game cabin, it was already past 5 pm. Feng Xiao took a short nap, after all, he didn't get much rest last night due to the excitement of the "Reincarnation" beta test.
When he woke up, it was already after 7 pm. Feng Xiao called his sister who was still in school and simply settled the dinner before entering a meditative state.
Still not feeling any flow of breath, Feng sighed helplessly. "I've been practicing the Chaotic Fist for seventeen years, but I still can't break through the barrier and can only stay at the first level, Father should be very disappointed."
Thinking of his adoptive father, Feng Xiao's mood became heavy again... Memories, warmth, doubts, sorrow, hatred, a multitude of complex emotions intertwined, causing Feng Xiao's mind to fluctuate greatly.
Feng Xiao's adoptive father was an extremely mysterious person, so mysterious that even after living with him for 22 years, Feng Xiao still couldn't fully understand him.
When he was 3 years old, he began to whisper in his ear countless times that he couldn't call him "dad", but "adoptive father" this somewhat ancient title, and frankly told him that he was just a pick-up, completely disregarding the psychological endurance of a 3-year-old child at the time.
At the age of 4, he began to teach him Hunyuan Gong, and casually mentioned that this skill can only be practiced by Feng Xian in the world. Unexpectedly, Feng Xian had been practicing for more than a decade without feeling any internal energy flow, but his physique and speed had undergone amazing changes, and these two aspects even surpassed his adoptive father.
Uncle was strict during training, but in daily life, he was a kind and meticulous father. To take care of him and his sister, he gave up his carefree wandering, gave up pursuing the pinnacle of martial arts, gave up getting married and having children, settled down in Beijing, and single-handedly raised them to adulthood. The hardships of a man raising two children were silently witnessed by the siblings, who were deeply moved in their hearts.
His godfather would often say strange things, make strange gestures, and impart mysterious skills that even he himself couldn't cultivate. He would also mutter to himself in languages that Feng Xiao couldn't understand. What made Feng Xiao feel the most mysterious and shocked was that his godfather could sometimes predict future events. Feng Xiao had always believed that even if someone told him his godfather was a deity, he wouldn't be too surprised.
The wind was clear and remembered what his adoptive father said before he died three years ago:
"In three years, the reincarnation of Linglong will definitely arrive in the world. Xiao'er, you must become the first person to be reborn! You must!"
At that time, Feng Xiao didn't understand the meaning of this sentence and could only nod blankly with tears in his eyes. It wasn't until two years later when the promotion for "Rebirth" covered the entire world...
Calmly soothing his emotions, Feng Xian silently recited in his heart: "Foster father, I have been following the path you guided me on and making progress. Yao'er is now a sophomore and will be returning home for summer vacation soon."
"Uncle, if you are watching from heaven, look at me and Yaoke becoming your pride!"
Thinking of his sister who brought disaster to the country and its people, a warm smile spread across his face: With her by his side, he would never be lonely.
The next morning, Feng Xiao woke up very late, simply washed and had breakfast, then lay down in the game cabin to continue playing "Rebirth".
A flash of white light, and Feng Xiao had already appeared in the place where he logged off yesterday. The refreshed White Wolf seemed to not recognize the human who slaughtered its kin, leisurely eating the green grass, without any reaction to his appearance.
The surroundings were still devoid of any players, which made Feng Xiao feel somewhat puzzled. "White Wolves spawn quickly and don't attack proactively, with decent experience to boot - this should be a great spot for leveling up in a party... so why is there no one here? Is it that nobody knows about this place? But the newbie village map clearly marks this as Sunset Slope, the territory of 5-level White Wolves."
If Feng Xiao had taken a look at the forum or asked Village Chief for some information, he would have known that most of the monsters in the northern area of Novice Village were gentle and did not attack actively. However, the drop rate of gold coins, potions, and equipment was extremely low. New players were usually short on money, so hunting here would only lead to financial losses. Only a new player like Feng Xiao with high luck, high attack power, and high reaction speed could make a profit here.
Didn't think clearly so stopped thinking, Wind stroked the 20 or so small red bottles in his backpack, felt more confident and started to venture deeper into the Sunset Slope.
Further in is Sunset Canyon, the territory of 8th-level violent wolves. Feng Xiao looked at his own attack of 200 and life of 450, feeling that there shouldn't be much danger.
Just as he was about to step out of the slope at sunset, a cave caught Feng Xiao's attention.
There is a cave with a height of more than one person, composed of soil and stones, seemingly naturally formed, which appears very conspicuous on the slope of the setting sun covered with green grass.
Feng Xiao vaguely remembered the village chief mentioning something about a cave, could it be that there was treasure inside? Without hesitation, Feng Xiao ran towards the cave. (The village chief cursed loudly: "Damn it! I was warning you not to get close to that cave!")
Just as he arrived at the entrance of the cave, a bloody killing aura suddenly came face to face with him. Feng Xiang instinctively dodged to one side, and a cold, shining claw narrowly swept past his eyes.
What appeared before Feng Xiao's eyes was a tall and majestic white wolf, which was twice as large as the gentle white wolf. Its eyes glowed with an eerie red light, staring fixedly at the intruder in front of it, exuding a thick aura of savagery.
"Ding, Player Fengyun, you have entered the territory of the Bloodthirsty White Wolf King, offending its dignity. The Bloodthirsty White Wolf King will launch an attack on you until you die or leave its territory."
Without any warning from the system, and without a hint of fear, Feng Xiao's heart was filled with intense excitement: "BOSS, it's BOSS! No wonder I couldn't kill it after chopping for an entire afternoon yesterday. It turns out this thing was hiding in its lair, sleeping soundly!"
What is BOSS, it represents a wealth of experience and top-notch equipment. Challenging BOSS is almost every player's expectation and hobby. Even if they encounter an extremely powerful BOSS that they can't defeat, most people will go back to gather their relatives for a group attack. If you don't fight when you meet a BOSS, it's either because you're a coward or a newbie. Unless the gap in strength is too great to overcome.
Bloodthirsty White Wolf King: 10-level high-grade BOSS, life 1500. The king of the white wolves, due to years of influence from the pure spiritual power of Sunset Slope, gradually grew into a high-grade BOSS. By nature gentle, but will launch merciless slaughter on living creatures that enter its territory.
Skill: Bloodthirst: Passive skill, absorbs 5% of damage taken and converts it into self's life value.
Rending Claw Strike: Active attack skill that strikes the enemy's body with sharp wolf claws, with a high probability of triggering a critical hit.
"It's actually a high-level BOSS." However, Feng Xiao didn't have too much to worry about. His current attributes were comparable to those of an average 15th-level player, and with his reaction speed, he should be able to take it down in a one-on-one fight.
In "Rebirth", the BOSS level is divided from low to high into ordinary, advanced, silver, and gold. Each upgrade in level results in a huge change in strength. For example, one silver BOSS can easily defeat three advanced BOSSes, while one gold BOSS can also easily handle three silver BOSSes. Above the gold BOSS are the incredibly powerful Xian beasts, above which are the legendary Shen beasts, and above those are the Super Shen beasts. At the very top is the supreme existence of "Rebirth" - the Holy beast.
