Chapter 325: Chapter 112 Sky-Filling Meteor_2

However, he quickly dismissed this bizarre idea from his mind.

After all, the magical changes brought about by this game were not limited to just this one—it had undergone so many transformations, what difference would one more make?

Xiao Jie thought it was best not to overthink it. So many people had played the game without ever understanding its mechanics; why should he care?

What mattered more was gaining more abilities.

Glancing at the clock and seeing it was already eight o’clock, Xiao Jie eagerly logged into the game.

Seeing his character appear inside a cavern, Xiao Jie hesitated for a moment and decided not to proceed further into the valley.

Although he had a mission, he figured the Red Dust Taoist probably wouldn’t harm him again.

But he always felt uneasy about this person, especially after seeing the graves of those Qi Refiners. He felt that if the Red Dust Taoist really wanted to harm him, there would be no hesitation.

Next time he came, he would make sure to be fully prepared, bringing enough people along—If they were to fight, he’d have to make it decisive, with no room for luck.

As he walked toward the exit of the cave, Xiao Jie began examining the Ancient Qi Refining Skill, which he hadn’t had a chance to fully explore yesterday due to the threat from Master Hongchen.

Upon opening it, he found it to be even more complex than he had imagined.

[Ancient Qi Refining Skill (Profession Inheritance Skill)

Trait 4:...

Skill Description: In ancient times, Qi Refiners created this unique Cultivation Method by absorbing the essence of spiritual energy between heaven and earth, transforming their souls and bodies to ultimately achieve Ascension to Immortality. Due to changes over ages, this profession’s inheritance was lost, but now rediscovered by you. If you diligently cultivate, perhaps one day you could unlock the path of Ancient Qi Refiner’s inheritance.]

It seems he would definitely be able to unlock the profession of Ancient Qi Refiner by Level 20.

He wondered what the core skill of a Qi Refiner might be.

Lost in thought, Xiao Jie had reached the entrance of the cave and leapt down with a broad jump.

Gently drifting to the ground, Xiao Jie summoned his mount and raced back in the direction he came from.

Indeed, just as the Red Dust Taoist had said, the Mysterious Forest had no reaction to him at all, allowing Xiao Jie to race through the woods on his horse easily.

Heh, this is indeed much more convenient. Looking back at Konglao Mountain in the distance, he wondered when he’d return next.

With a sigh, Xiao Jie sped toward the hills in front, knowing there was still a long way to go.

The entire Endless Wilderness was located to the northwest of Fengyin State, connecting Longhua State, Beiming State, and Flowing Fire State; it was an intersection of these regions and yet did not belong to Si State. The area was vast, and both coming and going were challenging.

Fortunately, he had accomplished his great task, and Xiao Jie felt significantly more relaxed. While speeding across the wilderness, he carefully observed his surroundings.

After crossing a range of mountains and circumventing a desolate hill, he arrived at a stone bridge linking the mountains, where Xiao Jie was surprised to see a somewhat familiar figure, sitting under a large tree at the edge of the bridge.

Huh, isn’t that the old man? Xiao Jie paused slightly. This old fellow hadn’t left yet; why was he waiting here?

A sense of alertness suddenly arose in his heart, knowing the treachery of human nature within this game.

Seeing Xiao Jie approaching on his flying horse, the man hurriedly stood up, clad in tattered linens, his hair and beard white—It could be no one but the old man from the Mysterious Forest.

Mysterious Elder: Level 28. Life Value: 580.

Seeing Xiao Jie, the old man immediately shouted excitedly.

"Young man, young man, hold on! Why not come over for a chat?"

Xiao Jie looked around at the terrain, realizing that crossing the stone bridge was necessary to return to Fengyin State without making a significant detour. This old man was conveniently guarding the entrance of the bridge, likely setting up an ambush for him.

As for the reason... heh, no need to guess—it was definitely the so-called ’Immortal’s Treasure.’

Xiao Jie played along, stopping his horse at a distance and facing the old man from afar.

"Aren’t you going home, old man?"

The old man sighed, "Can’t go back anymore, it’s been over thirty years, where is there a home for me to return to? Besides, before setting out I had killed my wife and sent away my son to commit fully and secure the Immortal’s Treasure. My fellows did the same. We were determined to sink or swim, but alas..."

Sheesh, this damn guy really was ruthless—and a monster at that.

"Haha, so what are you doing waiting here then? Could it be—you specifically waited for me to teach me all your life’s skills, your family’s Ultimate Skill, to fulfill the vows you once made?"
