Chapter 259: Practice Enchanting Light in Seclusion
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
There was a legend in the Wilma Continent.
“In the legend, Enchanting Light isn’t a skill of the three big professions. A wizard was once enchanted by the Wilma Devil, and he learned the Enchanting Light spell in the chaos. Like the demon leaders, he created tens of thousands of loyal followers who were enchanted by the demonic light and would fight to their deaths if they were summoned by the demonic light as they were followers of the devils and demons,” Fang Qi told the girls the history of Enchanting Light in the game.
“So powerful?!”
“It doesn’t sound real!”
“If it’s true, how come my Enchanting Light has no effects on monsters?!” Xi Yue voiced her doubt, “This is a garbage skill!”
Fang Qi’s face turned dark. “As a beginner, you can only enchant small animals, and it’s impossible to enchant monsters! You’re weak and can’t blame the spell!” He immediately sent her to enchant chickens. After she was successful with chickens, she could use it to enchant archers.
Meanwhile, he told Jiang Xiaoyue and Su Yao to practice the Summon Skeleton spell. Summon Skeleton had an unique feature – if the skeletons didn’t die, the Taoists couldn’t re-summon them. Therefore, the Taoists’ proficiency with this spell wouldn’t increase if their skeletons didn’t die.
Since no monsters were allowed to enter the cities, the Big Sabered Guards would kill skeletons whenever they saw them.
If one kept bringing skeletons into the city, the Big Sabered Guards would take it as an insult and kill the player as well!
Therefore, Fang Qi took them to Tiger Guard Hall to practice the summoning skill. At this moment, the other players hadn’t finished exploring the Wilma Forest yet. Due to the large number of monsters in the forest, they didn’t have the time to discover this new map yet.
Fang Qi had found this place when he was killing monsters and walked down a secret tunnel without turning back.
The Tiger Guard’s ancestor had once helped the three big heroes fight the Red Moon Demon, and he was cursed by the Red Moon Demon. His descendant, the Tiger Guard, was like a walking dead. When he was killing skeletons, he wouldn’t have the mind to make trouble for the skeleton’s human masters.
When the girls took off their items, the skeletons that they summoned usually had little HP, and they would be killed by the Tiger Guard in one or two saber slashes.
…
Meanwhile in the Wuwei Daoist Alliance, the basic magic-instilled artifacts were produced at large scale. After selling them to the internal forces, they were sold to the big forces in Country of Dajin.
In turn, the big forces sold them to people out of the country! Magic instillation! These new artifacts soon attracted the attention of a lot of big forces in Dajin and the surrounding small countries.
Today, many cultivators wearing green robes with jade mountains embroidered on their chests came into Jiuhua City. They were disciples of Jade Hill (Yu Qiu) Mountain, which was beyond the East Ocean.
There were also some Daoists wearing black-white robes and holding Daoist whisks in their hands; they were cultivators from Dragon Sea Daoist Palace. As for the cultivators wearing fancy clothes and jaded belts, they were members of the three big families on Linglang Mountain.
In the past, independent and small cultivators were most common in the big cities in Dajin, but now, various elites from big forces were here in the cities of Dajin.
The basic magic instillations were not useful to the grand cultivators, but the major forces had tens of thousands of disciples.
In terms of resources and worldly experiences, these forces were not without conflicts. If they lost to their rivals due to the inferiority of their spiritual artifacts instead of lower cultivation strengths…
Just imagine the scenario in which cultivators had the same spiritual artifacts, but some of them had extra attributes such as [+10 Energy] and [+10 Dexterity] on their spiritual artifacts, what would happen?
In one incident, a disciple of Liuyun Daoist Palace with low cultivation strength and few spiritual spells used his spiritual artifact and casted a middle-level spiritual spell!
It was said that the artifact stored more than one spiritual spells!
In another incident, some cultivators encountered a team of disciples of Lingyun Academy who were ordinary warriors lower than the Ancestral Warrior Realm. The cultivators usually could easily defeat warriors, not to mention the ordinary warriors! However, the cultivators were knocked down by something called guns!
It was fortunate that those warriors didn’t want to kill them. Otherwise, they would have died! And no one would believe that these cultivators were killed by warriors!
Since the decision makers in the clans and factions were afraid of offending the Yundian Upper Realm and didn’t dare to send people over to buy these new artifacts, the disciples came and bought the artifacts for themselves!
After all, they couldn’t survive in the real world if they didn’t buy these items, and that was why the big cities such as Jiuhua and Yanhai were thronged with disciples from foreign forces!
The Wuwei Daoist Alliance had been promoting and selling resources and spiritual artifacts to the surrounding forces, but now the situation had changed. The disciples from the big factions came into Dajin Country to buy items from the Wuwei Daoist Alliance!
They came in groups and bought artifacts in large quantities!
A luxuriously dressed young cultivator looking to be in his twenties walked into the Blue Flame Pavilion of Jiuhua City and saw a big sign. [Qixi Shopping Festival; 30% off all items in the shop.]
[TL Note: Qixi Festival is the Chinese Valentine’s Day.]
The young man looked baffled.
On the other side, a shop clerk looked at Li Haoran in confusion. “Junior Uncle-Master Li, will this work?”
“I don’t know…” Li Haoran’s face looked stiff. “It’s Mr. Fang’s suggestion.”
“We don’t have a Qixi Festival, right?”
Li Haoran said as his face twitched, “It’s now a new addition in our shop, okay? The people from other countries don’t know it anyway.”
The young cultivator asked a shop clerk eagerly, “What’s the Qixi Shopping Festival?”
“Hello, Gongzi! This is a new promotion of our shop, and the discount is effective for only seven days,” a girl explained with a sweet smile.
“In the next three days, all the items you see are 50% off! These are the best spiritual artifacts of our shop, and they have super effective magic instillations!”
“All items are on 50% discount?”
The girl nodded. “Yes, but only for three days.”
“Okay!” The young man who had planned to buy about 100 artifacts said immediately, “I’ll take 500 items with the magic affix that increases energy and 300 with the magic affix that increases dexterity!”
…
In Half City on the next day, Xi Yue yawned and said, “Guild President, is this practice useful?”
“Of course! Which level are you on now?”
“I’m on level 3…” Xi Yue said drowsily in boredom.
“Come to the White Sun Gate!”
At this moment, Jiang Xiaoyue and Su Yao were busy practicing Summon Skeleton. Xi Yue looked at Fang Qi with a bored expression, “Guild President, what do I do here? I don’t summon skeletons.”
Fang Qi pointed at the Tiger Guard who had just killed the skeleton that Jiang Xiaoyue summoned and said, “Enchanting Light.”
“Ugh?” All the girls looked at Fang Qi in astonishment.
“Guild President, can I enchant it?!” They had seen the horrifying power of the Tiger Guard. He moved swiftly and had high damage; this was why they came here to practice Summon Skeleton.
Xi Yue tossed out an Enchanting Light tentatively.
Then, she looked exhilarated as if she had picked up a crystal on the street. “I enchanted it!”
“Now, I will take you to enchant the Eagle Guard!” Fang Qi said, “Today, I saw one Eagle Guard while we flew using the Random Teleportation Scroll.”
The Eagle Guard was a loyal archer but had gotten lost after being enchanted by a new-born devil. He usually wandered in the jungles and mazes and had powerful long-range attacks that brought fear to his enemies.
