Chapter 64: Three New Skills

  "Wu Bo, why hasn't Xiao Lin come out yet?" Alice asked anxiously, staring at the small cottage with closed doors and windows.

  "No rush, Little Wu should be in the midst of practicing his Storm Slash technique. We can't disturb him, or else the consequences will be severe." Wu Bo said seriously to Alice.

  "But..." Alice was about to say something.

  Suddenly, a fierce gust of wind burst out in the small hut where Lin Wu was, instantly tearing his hut apart.

  "This, this is Storm Surge?" Wu Bo stared at the fierce gale, his mind numb with wonder. He had also seen Storm Surge before, although as a fire attribute cultivator he couldn't practice it himself, but he knew its contents like the back of his hand. However, what Lin Wu was displaying right now was completely different from the description of Storm Surge.

  "Who would have thought that combining the Storm Slash and Gale Slash would produce such immense power." Lin Wu thought to himself, feeling the mutated wind attribute Qi coursing through his body.

  The combination of speed and power, Lin Wu's internal energy circulated, and a faint blue light shot out in all directions. As a high-level swordsman, Lin Wu also successfully advanced to the middle rank of high-level swordsmen through this fusion of techniques.

  "Triple Slash!!"

  Lin Wu suddenly drew his long sword and unfolded the Three Segment Slash, only to see Lin Wu transform into a streak of cyan light that flashed three times in succession. Compared to before, the Three Segment Slash's power surged again under the support of the new Dou Qi technique, not only increasing its attack speed but also greatly enhancing its power. Even compared to when he used the Godly Ghost Force to release it, the difference was negligible. Lin Wu now had confidence that he could be undefeated against any great swordsmen below him.

  He withdrew his aura, and the wild winds that had been generated by Lin Wu's sudden breakthrough also dissipated. Looking at the broken house, Lin Wu was taken aback for a moment, and just then Alice rushed over in a hurry.

  "Kobayashi, are you alright?" Alice asked anxiously, grasping Lin Wu's arm.

  "Little girl, what's wrong with you? Have you got a fever?" Suddenly hearing Alice's concerned words, Lin Wu felt somewhat unwell for a moment, and touched Alice's forehead.

  "Ahh~~ Nuisance Lin, I rarely show concern for you, yet you... Hmph, I won't bother with you anymore." Alice stormed off after throwing N water balls at Lin Wu.

  He raised his hand and shattered Alice's water ball. Lin Wu couldn't help but smile wryly, "This little girl seems to have become more obedient recently."

  "Xiao Wu, have you broken through?" Wu Bo looked up and down at Lin Wu and said.

  He pointed at him and Lin Wu said: "Lucky."

  Upon hearing this, Wu Bo patted his hand and said: "Good, Little Wu, you're indeed astonishing to have entered the high-level swordsman talent at the age of 16. However, I must remind you not to be complacent. There are many who entered the high-level swordsman earlier than you, but most of them got stuck at the great swordsman bottleneck. So, as long as you haven't advanced to great swordsman, everything is still an unknown quantity. Becoming a great swordsman is just the beginning of becoming strong."

  "I understand." Lin Wu nodded his head. A high-level swordsman can enter as long as he works hard, but a great swordsman needs not only effort, but also talent and even some opportunities.

  But entering the Great Swordsman is truly the starting point of a strong person.

  "It's fine as long as you understand, today is your last day of preparation, tomorrow the profit-sharing match will begin. You are the seed player of the Rose family, and now that you've broken through to become a high-level swordsman, you'll definitely be one of the hot favorites in the tournament. Now, get familiar with the power you've obtained." Wu Bo said.

  Lin Wu was then arranged to live in a separate small courtyard, the original small house was already uninhabitable, and the Rose family naturally gave him a small courtyard directly in order to win him over.

  Expel all the servants, Lin Wu opened the skill tree. This time, he didn't know what new skills would appear when he leveled up. Lin Wu was looking forward to it very much. As his strength increased, the power of the skills that appeared in the skill tree also grew greater. All of Lin Wu's expectations were completely understandable.

  Open the swordsmanship skill tree, and the skills that Lin Wu has learned the most are: Upper Cut, Consecutive Thrust, Block, Silver Light Falling Blade, and Three-Section Slash. Behind these skills, another skill icon appears: Airborne Continuous Slash.

  Aerial Combo: Perform a series of slashes in mid-air towards an enemy.

  "Unexpectedly, Air Slash has appeared. This skill is an important continuous technique in the game, I wonder what its effect will be in this world." Lin Wu thought to himself.

  He lightly tapped the icon, and the cultivation method of Air Slash flooded into Lin Wu's mind. After carefully savoring the skill, Lin Wu found it to be quite decent. Although its power was not strong, it was relatively simple to cultivate. While it couldn't serve as a primary output skill, it was absolutely a killer move in mid-air against enemies.

  After obtaining Air Combo, Lin Wu began to recall some combos in the game and see if he could apply them in actual combat.

  Lin Wu closed the swordsmanship skill tree and opened the wave skill tree. On it, Lin Wu had only learned one skill, Earth Splitting Wave Slashing Sword. However, this time a second skill finally appeared, Wave Splitting Slash.

  Rift Slash: Deals massive damage to enemies in front with a powerful slash, releasing a shockwave that hits and knocks back surrounding enemies multiple times.

  Seeing this skill, Lin Wu was overjoyed. This skill was one of the few low-level skills that Lin Wu had been eagerly anticipating. In the game, Lin Wu would often use this skill to grab onto his opponents during PKs, and it was also quite useful for grinding maps. It could even be considered a group attack skill, especially with the shockwave that appeared when the skill was cast. Lin Wu couldn't help but wonder what kind of situation would arise in this world.

  Thinking of the icon that Lin Wu pointed to in a hurry, with the influx of the cultivation method of Liebo Slash, Lin Wu was suddenly stunned. "This..." After carefully experiencing the complex cultivation method, Lin Wu couldn't help but let out a long sigh. It seems that learning this Liebo Slash is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

  Helplessly closed the fluctuation system skill tree, Lin Wu opened the ghost system skill tree with two skills on it, Ghost Slash and Dao Hun Ka Zan, but no new skills appeared below.

  Open the last blood gas system skill, there is a cross cut on top, and a new skill, collapse mountain strike, appears below.

  Mountain Crash: Leap forward and slam your weapon into the ground. (If Blood Frenzy is learned, a shockwave will be emitted)

  The introduction to the anomaly is simple, and like the Cross Slash, it's an incomplete skill that can't fully unleash its power without mastering the Blood Energy Surge. Clicking on the icon, the training method for Collapse Strike is also simple, compared to Wave Splitter, it's almost too simple.

  However, Lin Wu knew that the Blood Qi skill emphasized simple violence, and only after mastering the vigorous blood qi and the signature skill of the Berserker, Blood Frenzy, could he truly exert his power.

  And the fluctuation system skill, belongs to the magic martial skill, the power is also extraordinary, but the difficulty is too great, and the learning requirements are high. Magic and martial arts both have demands, this is not a game, can't rely on skill points, understanding naturally increases the difficulty, however Lin Wu believes that whether it's power or effect, it will definitely be stronger than in the game.

  "Not bad, this time three skills appeared, among which the aerial slash and collapse strike should be able to grasp quickly, as for the ripple slash, it still needs to come slowly." Lin Wu calculated, then got up and left the yard to find a secluded place to practice his skills.

  (Some game skills may be slightly modified to make them more reasonably appear in another world.)
