490: Chapter 69 Daoist Skill Mastery, Sword Master_3 490: Chapter 69 Daoist Skill Mastery, Sword Master_3 “Right, right, right, and as a Guest Elder, I’m not bound by death, so you can’t limit my freedom,” he said, then turned to Xiao Jie, “I’ll leave with you guys tomorrow.”

The absence of a Master of Magic made Little White Dragon quite frustrated, and unfortunately, there was nothing he could do.

Although Xiao Jie was a core member, he belonged to an independent unit, and he was aware of that.

Fortunately, a Shaman had joined this time, so it wasn’t a total loss.

After exchanging a few words, everyone dispersed.

But Hidden Dragon Do Not Use stayed behind.

“I’m planning to join the main force tomorrow,” he said in a calm voice.

“Ah, you’re not going back to the Luoyang Branch?”

“No, I won’t return.

Little White Dragon is actually leading the team quite well.

Although it’s a bit aggressive, the team’s growth is quite evident, and I feel I’d rather follow orders than lead the team.”

His words were reasonable; the strength of the Luoyang Branch had indeed increased.

During this time, they had steadily conquered some villages and each team member’s Level had generally increased by one or two.

Although they couldn’t compare to someone like Xiao Jie who was cheating the system, for ordinary players, this was a significant improvement.

Key point, now even the ordinary members were daring enough to fight and strive against bosses, unlike before when they were just slacking off.

“What about Hao Ye Xinghe?”

“He’s staying at the Luoyang Branch.

His Level is too low; joining the main force wouldn’t be helpful.

Staying in Luoyang Town is just right, especially since they needed a replacement for the Master of Magic.”

“Then I wish you smooth sailing.”

“You too, I don’t know exactly what your plans are, but it seems you have an important mission.

If you need it, you can ask the guild leader, he will surely be willing to help.”

“Definitely, definitely.”

“Right, the guild leader told me earlier, the guild is preparing to start slaying dragons to establish a nation.

They are currently gathering all information related to dragons.

If you encounter related intel in Ghost Mist Ridge, remember to report it to the guild leader.”

“Definitely, definitely.”

After Hidden Dragon Do Not Use left, Bai Ze came up close.

“Brother Sui Feng—Feng, I’m counting on you now.”

“Sure, let’s go upstairs and talk slowly.”

Xiao Jie led a few people upstairs and saw an old man with a white beard sitting on the edge of a bed, eating meat and drinking wine.

He quickly greeted Xiao Jie.

“Younger brother, why did you take so long?

I’ve been eating for a while now, huh, are these your friends?”

Ah, shit—Saber Saint!

Bai Ze was shocked when he saw Yuan Bai; he recognized what such an NPC meant.

This made him trust Xiao Jie even more.

But Yuan Bai simply nodded and continued swigging his alcohol.

This drastic change from imminent death to life made him extremely happy.

Now, he just wanted to enjoy life carefree.

Xiao Jie settled into a chair, “We are leaving for Ghost Mist Ridge tomorrow.

Speaking of which, Bai Ze, how are you preparing?”

The basic professions for a Sword Master are Swordsman and Taoist.

Bai Ze already had both.

The prerequisites needed are—Daoist Skill at Expert Level, and Swordsmanship at Grandmaster Level.

This information is currently held internally by the Dragon Soaring Knights, and probably similar intel was collected by major guilds.

Bai Ze said, “My Daoist Skill has reached Expert Level, so that’s not a problem, but becoming a Grandmaster in Swordsmanship is a bit difficult.

I am only at Master Level and still three tiers away.

It’s tough to rush my Swordsmanship to Grandmaster Level before Level 30.”

Xiao Jie strongly agreed; his Saber Skill had only just reached Master Level, and he was still half the experience away from Grandmaster Level, despite hacking away at monsters with a saber since Level 1.

Achieving Grandmaster Level in Swordsmanship wasn’t something that could be done by just following the steps.

Fortunately, Xiao Jie knew a Swordsmanship expert.

When he was in Canglin State, he had consulted with Jiu Jianxian.

Although not a Sword Saint, Jiu Jianxian’s Swordsmanship had reached Grandmaster Level long ago, so he had a lot of experience.

“I already asked for you.

The simplest way to quickly level up your Swordsmanship is to fight higher-level monsters.

The higher the Monster Level, the more experience you gain.

Second, it’s best to fight monsters that also use swords.

Defeating sword-wielding monsters can earn you additional skill experience bonuses.

Third, the higher the quality of your swordsmanship, the better.

It must at least be Advanced Martial Arts, Rare and Strange Skill even better, and of course, if you have a Supreme Divine Skill, that would be the best.”

“I broke the bank to get a Rare Techniques level Swordsmanship, and I’ve already trained it to three layers, but I’ve always been fighting low-level Little Monsters.

I dare not touch high-level monsters, my body is too weak, and my defensive power is too low.”

Xiao Jie smiled slightly, “Don’t worry, your swordsmanship definitely won’t work against Physical monsters, but against ghosts, it will be fine.”

Ghost damage is actually very low; they are just immune to physical attacks and are invisible.

Moreover, their Yin Attribute Attack ignores defense, making them somewhat unsolvable for Physical Professions, but not so difficult for Taoists.

Taoists don’t rely on Defense to survive, just throw up a Protective Magic and start chopping.

“But to kill ghosts, you need a specific weapon.

Do you have a Soul Slash attribute weapon?”

“My Peach Wood Sword has the Soul Slash attribute, and I can also apply Spiritual Blade Technique to the weapon, which also can kill ghosts.”

“Then that’s settled.

We leave tomorrow morning, don’t be late.”
