479: Chapter 66 Departure—Fengyin State 479: Chapter 66 Departure—Fengyin State Next, Xiao Jie took inventory of his current attributes.

Little did he know, he was in for a shock when he looked.

“Holy crap, they’re this high already?”

The Kaiyang Gold Seal still had two days before it would wear off, but even disregarding that, the sheer increase in the rest of his attributes was outrageous.

Just from leveling up last night, he’d gained a full four levels, earning him 20 attribute points.

Today, his Qi Refining Skill advanced three times, and each time, thanks to the “Demon Spirit Manifestation” Talent, he received a huge bonus in additional attribute points.

Pair that with the +7 to all Basic Attributes provided by the Tiger Body Dragon Shape, and at this very moment, Xiao Jie’s attributes had reached a shocking level.

Level: 27.

Constitution: 69 (Equipment +2).

Endurance: 35 (Equipment +2).

Strength: 54 (Equipment +2).

Agility: 77 (Equipment +6).

Spirit: 21 (Equipment +7).

Spiritual: 37.

Perception: 11.

Faith: 0.

Special Attributes—

Comprehension: 25 (Old Man’s Bamboo Hat +1)

Luck: 12.

And that’s without the bonuses from the Kaiyang Gold Seal.

Crazy insane, absolutely crazy insane!

Xiao Jie thought as he looked at his panel attributes, feeling incredibly pleased inside.

He did a quick calculation and figured that his attributes were at least ten levels higher than a normal player’s.

He might appear to be Level 27, but in reality, he was over Level 37.

Strong, too strong.

This Qi Refining Skill was indeed the right choice.

Although it lacked all sorts of magical spells, the attribute bonuses alone were ridiculously powerful.

Once he reached Level 30 and advanced to a Demon Refiner, learning a few powerful Demon Arts from him, he’d be dual-wielding both physical and magical prowess, and he couldn’t even begin to imagine his strength.

Originally, Xiao Jie still felt anxious about facing Master Hongchen, utterly overwhelmed, but at this moment, out of nowhere, a lot of confidence emerged.

With strength like mine, I can certainly make my way in this world.

Wait…

hold on a second, if I have so many bonuses, doesn’t Master Hongchen have just as many?

And as someone modeled after a Worldly Expert, his attribute bonuses would only be greater, not less.

In the tale of seller’s show and buyer’s show, I am the one with the buyer’s show.

He’s the seller’s show, how strong might that be?

Not to mention, his Qi Refining Skill had already reached the Ninth Layer—Transcendent.

The overall bonus effects of Qi Refining Skill tend to get more exaggerated the further it advances; wouldn’t that make his strength even more terrifying?

Thinking of this, Xiao Jie’s scalp tingled, and the confidence he had just gained turned instantly into a sense of powerlessness.

Keep in mind that Master Hongchen’s level is 59, on par with Master Xiao Yue.

His strength is probably at least as formidable as Master Xiao Yue’s and Longhua True Man’s level.

Those are probably the strongest people below the level of an Immortal.

Remembering how yesterday three half-Experts easily swept through over a dozen Monster Leaders and thousands of Demon Soldiers, Xiao Jie’s mouth dried up at the display of such strength.

With such power, even if the whole guild went at them, it wouldn’t be easy.

Fortunately, there was still some time, so he didn’t immediately have to face an unprecedented strong enemy.

And now that he knew the various features of Qi Refining Skill, he could find the antidote directly, the solution to his problems.

He had only refined those Great Demon Pills before, and he still had over twenty Deteriorated Demon Pills in his bag, enough to last him about ten more days.

Just as he was contemplating, a private message suddenly flashed across the information panel.

I Want to Be Immortal: Feng, are you there?

I’ve got good news for you.

Hidden Moon Following Wind: Yeah, I’m here, what’s up?

I Want to Be Immortal: Hahaha, I stumbled upon another adventure yesterday.

Hidden Moon Following Wind: Oh, congratulations, what reward did you get?

I Want to Be Immortal: I’ll tell you when I see you.

Are you at the inn?

I’ll come to you.

Hidden Moon Following Wind: Then come on over.

It wasn’t long before I Want to Be Immortal came in, looking thrilled, with a ghost-like White Wolf seemingly visible and invisible behind him.

“Eh, isn’t that a Wolf Spirit?” Xiao Jie exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the White Wolf.

Resurrected Wolf Spirit (Pet of I Want to Be Immortal): Level 23, Life Value ????

“Hey, where did this come from?”

“Haha, cool, right?

Now I’ve got a pet too.” I Want to Be Immortal was envious of everyone’s various summons and pets during the previous boss battles, and now he had finally remedied that regret.

“Since when did you learn Beast Taming Skill?

And you caught a Ghost Wolf?”

“It’s not Beast Taming Skill, it’s Dog Training Skill,” he said.

Xiao Jie then realized, back when the two of them were in Newbie Village, they had both learned the Dog Training Skill.

However, the Hunting Dogs they tamed with this Skill couldn’t level up and were basically useless later on.

He hadn’t expected that I Want to Be Immortal would find a use for it now.

“But this is…” Well, wolves and dogs are closely related, so it could pass.

“What in the world happened?” Xiao Jie asked, astonished.

I Want to Be Immortal excitedly began to explain: “You know how you went to turn in the quest yesterday, right?

After splitting up with Sister Ye Luo, I had nothing to do, so I went outside the city to mine and gather herbs, thought I’d try a side hustle.

Unexpectedly, I wandered into some mist and got lost.

Then I heard some dog barking.

I followed the sound of the barking and, can you guess what happened—turned out I found a bear trap with the corpse of a wolf caught in it.

I remember Sister Ye Luo said something about gaining Merit for burying corpses, so I figured maybe this dead wolf was even a local resident, and I buried it.

As soon as I turned around, a Ghost Wolf popped out and started wagging its tail at me as if to thank me.

I had a sudden inspiration then—I still had my Dog Training Skill, and to my surprise, it actually worked.

I managed to Tame it straight away.

But this thing seems to be more than just a regular Hunting Dog, it has very low Life Value, I took it out and it got hit once by a monster and died, but luckily, it can be resurrected anytime.”
