Chapter 001: A Clichéd Beginning
"Ding, congratulations to player Fengyun for leveling up to level 22. Life +20, Magic +10, Strength +1, Vitality +1, Agility +1, Spirit +1. There are 5 attribute points available for distribution."
"Ding, your pet Holy Kirin of the Five Elements has leveled up to 16. Life +10, Magic +15, Attack +5, Magic Attack +10, Defense +5."
Translating...
Over-leveling monsters have a high experience and drop rate bonus. Four hours later, Feng Xiao's originally 21-level 30% experience bar quickly fills up, leveling him up to level 22. At the same time, his 200-space backpack is completely filled - despite only picking up equipment above Fine Iron grade.
"This damn luck, the backpack is expanded to its maximum capacity and it's still not enough." Feng Xiao smiled to himself, crushed the Return Scroll and returned to Tian Long Imperial City.
The Infinite Space Gate can only be used six times a day, so it's best to use Recall Scrolls instead and never waste it.
Back in the sunny Tianlong Imperial City, he let out a mouthful of stale air, and the dampness and oppression of the Death God's graveyard made him wonder if staying there for too long would cause him to go crazy.
Returned to Feng Lou, Feng Xiao lay on the bed and chatted with her sister for more than half an hour. After getting up, she casually touched two soft and round breasts before leaving contentedly.
Upgrading is important, but you can't not enjoy life.
"Oh, this is my store and auction house, grand, magnificent, and the location is simply perfect..." Feng Xiao stared at the sign of 'Feng Xing Tian Xia' general merchandise store, admiring it endlessly.
"The Wind Chime" shops, auction houses and wine houses are lined up together, located on the north side of Tianlong Square, attracting countless players' envy and attention.
"Hmm!" The madman responded to his praise with just a simple grunt, seemingly completely uninterested.
Feng Xiao really wanted to rip off his face skin to see if he had been wearing a human skin mask all along.
If 5 pieces of golden equipment, more than 20 pieces of silver equipment and more than 50 pieces of bronze equipment were displayed in front of an ordinary player at once, what would his reaction be? It's estimated that he would be so excited that he would faint.
But this guy's expression didn't change at all!
It's definitely Bell's palsy! The wind secretly found a reason to convince itself.
…………
"Isn't this Tian Zhan's Dao Shi? Tsk tsk, business is booming!" Feng Xiao said with a gloating expression.
“……I'm about to get carpal tunnel from all these job transfers, by the way, Feng Ling, any news on the Demon God Sword?” Tian Yan replied in a huff, sweat dripping down his face as he struggled to keep up with the endless queue that stretched from Earth to the Moon.
"What's this Devil Sword?" asked Feng Xiaoqi.
Tian Yan was choked by Feng Xiao's words and almost burst out in anger: "Didn't I tell you to go find the Demon God Sword when I helped you change jobs?"
"You didn't say..." Feng Xiao thought for a moment and said very certainly.
“……”
"Didn't I really say it?"
"No!"
"Never mind, just never mind. Hurry up and get out of my sight now, I don't have time to talk to you. With your current abilities, it's pointless even talking about it. Come find me when you're level 50."
It's useless to brag, one's own strength is clearest to oneself. An ordinary player at level 50 may not necessarily be a match for you.
"Tianzhan Daoshi, do you know where the Holy Dragon of Light is?"
"Radiant Holy Dragon? Only ghosts know where it is, this monster isn't something us humans can comprehend."
Tianzhan's answer was identical to that of the Tianlong Emperor, and Feng Xiao had thoroughly died in the Tianlong Imperial City.
"But what is this Demon God Sword? Is it a sword specifically for demon warriors?"
"It seems like I haven't gone to the Life Player Zone for a stroll yet, and it might not be bad to try out a life-related side job either." Feng Xiao muttered to himself as he gazed at the Life Player Hall in the distance.
The number of players in the life profession is far less than that of combat professions, but the entire hall is also crowded, and the teams in front of various professional transfer points are equally long and frightening.
The life professions in "Rebirth" are as numerous as the hairs on a cow, almost all of which exist in reality. There are florists, chefs, animal trainers, blacksmiths, loggers, miners, butchers, decorators, repairmen, servants, and even singers, dancers, musicians, poets, and so on.
The profession of a madman who has changed careers is a merchant, and only merchants can open stores.
"What a pity there isn't a profession as selfless and great as being a lady!" Feng Xiao thought to himself with an expression of discontent as he walked out of the hall.
"Enough rest, time to level up." Thinking of that dark, damp and depressing Death God's graveyard, Feng couldn't help but feel a headache.
"Ugh... If it weren't for the 50% damage bonus against humanoid enemies, I'd rather die than go to that place to level up."
A violent tremor echoed through the sea of consciousness...
Feng Xiao hastily covered his ears and said with a thought: "Wan Er, what's wrong?"
"Feng Gege...that girl."
"Girl?" Feng Xiu raised her head in surprise, her eyes scanning the crowd coming and going, a girl wearing a white new cheongsam caught her eye.
Her eyebrows are like the crescent moon, her eyes are like autumn water, and her face is as soft as jade, with a slightly excessive radiance. Ordinary silk clothes cannot conceal her slender and delicate figure that is full of charm. Although her face is covered by a thin veil, she still exudes an breathtaking beauty.
"What's wrong with that girl?"
"Feng Gege, it was that girl named Yang Xi Ruo you met a few days ago." Xuan Yuan Wenyi said in a soft voice.
"Hmm, I remember now. Wanyu, what do you want to say?" Feng Xiao was very curious why Xuan Yuan Wanyu would remember this fleeting girl.
"Feng Gege, please save her, okay? She's so pitiful, really so pitiful... just like Wan'er..." Xuan Yuan Wan'er's voice slowly became tearful, as if recalling some painful memory.
"Wanyu, don't be sad anymore. From now on, I'll be with you and you won't be lonely again." Feng Xiao directly "recognized" Xuan Yuan Wanyu's pitifulness as a lifelong loneliness.
"Uh, Brother Feng... then can you save her? I know you can save her..."
"Everyone has their own life trajectory, others have no right or reason to interfere, and I have no responsibility or obligation to save her." Feng Xiao's face was calm, but when his adoptive father passed away back then, who had wanted to save him?
"But... " Feng Xiao's face suddenly turned strange: "Wan Er, how did you know she had a physical problem, and why did you know I could save her?"
"Because... because Feng Gege knows Hunyuan Jue."
“……！！”
The wind was so strong that it shocked and amazed me, I stood there completely stunned.
"Brother Feng..."
"Wan Er, you..."
The brain is in a whirlwind of confusion.
He cultivated the Chaotic Void Fist, apart from himself and Yao'er, as well as his deceased adoptive father, no one else in the world knew about it. Yet today, a sword spirit in the game actually spoke of it, his shock was no less than seeing an ant trample an elephant to death.
"Sorry, Wind brother, I... I can see through human memories..."
“……”
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry, Wan'er has always known that someone who can know what others are thinking at any time is not likable by anyone. But, Wan'er can't control herself, as long as she looks at that person for a moment, she will automatically obtain his most important memories..." Xuan Yuan Wan'er's words were filled with sobs and panic.
“……”
"Feng Gege, would you dislike me?" Xuan Yuan Wanyin asked with great effort to hold back her tears, looking tense and pitiful.
"......No. Of course not, Wanyu is so lovely, I don't even have time to like her... how could I possibly dislike her." Feng Xiao laughed twice and said with difficulty.
Can see through people's memories...... What kind of game is this......
