However, Xiao Buli's original plan could not be implented after all, because after checking his status, he noticed that the BUFF from the Soul Refining Pill would disappear in just over ten hours. Xiao Buli thought it over and decided to first level his Tea Ceremony skill to LV10, considering the Soul Refining Pill was obviously a very precious item, and it would be best not to waste it.
While drinking tea in the ga, Xiao Buli also brewed two pots of fine tea in reality. One was to wake himself up, and the other because he felt it might also increase the speed of leveling up Tea Ceremony. At three in the morning, amidst extre fatigue, Xiao Buli finally leveled his Tea Ceremony to LV10, increasing his spiritual power by another two points.
Now, even without equipnt, he had as much as 18 points of spiritual power.
Reaching Tea Ceremony LV10 also led him to comprehend a new skill.
System Prompt: Through prolonged dedicated study and understanding of Tea Ceremony, as well as cultivation of behavior and temperant, you have comprehended the profound state of 'Heart As Still Water'.
Heart As Still Water: Removes all taunt, confusion, rage, and charm effects, and you will not be affected by these effects for the following minute. Skill cooldown ti—five minutes.
A very nice skill— although it had no attack power, the ability to remove status effects was very useful.
Xiao Buli dragged the skill into his skill bar and then stretched out lazily.
"Ah, so sleepy," he thought to himself; the several pots of tea he'd consud in the ga seed to have had no effect.
Yawning, Xiao Buli returned to his room and fell onto the bed, where he promptly fell asleep.
The next day, he didn't wake up until past nine o'clock, which was still considered early given his high spiritual power and hence reduced need for sleep; otherwise, he might have slept till noon.
After grabbing so food from the restaurant, he went to the computer room. While greeting everyone, he inquired about when they would run the dungeon again.
But Bai Yunfei said, "I have to complete a very long task today. Let's wait until tomorrow to run the dungeon. After all, one day won't make much of a difference, does everyone agree?"
No one had any objections; there were still several days left, and they could run the dungeon any ti.
Seeing this, Xiao Buli also breathed a sigh of relief, as he wasn't in the best state for running dungeons at the mont.
While eating breakfast, he continued to learn professional skills. This ti he chose farming, a professional skill that could enhance his physique and stamina. Out of all the attributes, besides spiritual power, he thought physique was the most important.
By the ti it was past five in the evening, his farming skill had reached LV5, increasing his physique and stamina by one point each. However, he had no plans to continue leveling it up, for as the sky gradually darkened, ghosts would soon respawn.
Riding a travel horse with a speed of 150, Xiao Buli made his way to the wilderness outside Nine Dragons City. Following the coordinates given by Wu Min'er, he easily found the Mass Burial Mound. From afar, he saw a lonely thatched hut standing amidst the gradually setting sun, which appeared rather desolate.
Xiao Buli dismounted from his horse at a distance and walked along a narrow path to the hut. The chimney of the hut was emitting a thin trail of blue smoke. He pushed open the door and walked in. The inside of the hut was very dim, and a pottery pot was hanging over the fire pit.
An old woman with skin as wrinkled as tree bark was stirring a full pot of suspiciously green liquid with a wooden spoon, reminiscent of an old witch from western myths, yet her na was Mrs. Kong.
"Oh, who's co in?" the old woman asked shakily.
"Madam, I am just a passerby, wishing to rest here for a while. May I?"
Xiao Buli followed the process Wu Min'er told him exactly, and indeed, Mrs. Kong called out, "Young man, don't be in such a hurry to leave. This lonely old woman has nobody to care for her, and I lack clothing and food. Since you happen to pass by, could you trouble yourself to buy so things for from the nearby village?"
Xiao Buli replied, "Of course, it would be my pleasure."
Mrs. Kong said, "Then please buy ten stead buns for , two roast chickens, and ten pounds of distilled liquor."
System Prompt: You have triggered the task—Errand Boy. Do you accept?
```
```
Quest Content: Go to Ghost Burial Village and purchase food for Mrs. Kong.
Xiao Buli naturally chose to accept and took the 10 copper coins provided for the purchase. Ghost Burial Village was located not far from Mass Burial Mound, a tiny village with a general store. Tapping on the store owner's profile, Xiao Buli checked the prices of the goods and imdiately cursed inwardly at the rip-off.
One stead bun equaled one silver coin, a roasted chicken for 10 silver coins, a pound of spirits for 3 silver coins. This whole set would cost a whopping 60 silver coins. The rchants of Ghost Burial Village were extorting him, or was this a collusion from the start?
But there was no choice, he needed that BUFF, so he gritted his teeth, paid up, and made his way back to the small thatched cottage at Mass Burial Mound to turn in the quest.
"Old lady, I've bought the things you asked for."
"That fast? Let see, oh yes, these are exactly what I urgently need, looks like I won't go hungry tonight."
Having said that, she blinked her white, pupil-less eyes as if she rembered sothing. "I don't have much to repay you with, but here's a bowl of soup. Drink it while it's hot."
System prompt: You have obtained Soul Awakening Soup ×1, shelf life 60 seconds.
Once the sixty seconds passed, the dicinal effect of the Soul Awakening Soup would vanish, so it seed he couldn't take it back as a consumable item.
As Xiao Buli pondered, he double-clicked on the Soul Awakening Soup, and his character guzzled down the soup in one breath.
As expected, a BUFF called Ghost Eye appeared above his head.
This should do it, right?
He thought as he bid farewell to Mrs. Kong and stepped out of the cottage, only to be stunned. The previously empty Mass Burial Mound was now filled with white, semi-transparent spiritual bodies, so not quite intact, their grey nas revealed as 'Incomplete Ghosts'. Probably souls that weren't whole. Others were nad 'Wandering Lonely Spirits' and 'Wandering Wild Ghosts' in white.
These spirits didn't exist before, or maybe he just couldn't see any, but now they had all appeared at once, truly giving one a chill down the spine.
Walking a bit closer, a nearby 'Wandering Lonely Spirit' seed to sense him, its yellow na border imdiately turned red, and it floated towards him.
Xiao Buli wasn't nervous. Chain Sword Strike! The blade in his hand, Soul Slayer's Blade, swept out in a flurry, thrice in quick succession. The ghost split into three parts like butter pudding slashed by a scalding hot knife, scread, and dispersed into nothingness.
System prompt: You have earned 78 Combat Points in experience.
Aweso! Xiao Buli was pleasantly surprised. Killing a zombie only got him 60 experience points, and it took a good while for five people to bring one down, not to ntion splitting the experience points in a team would leave each with only about 15 or 16 points. A ghost that could be instantly slain was worth nearly 80 points, which was extrely exhilarating.
As he made his way around the outskirts, Xiao Buli was truly dominating. The ghosts' attacks were pitifully weak, their only power being to ignore Armor and drain a small amount of Mana and Physical Strength, but it was no big deal.
In less than half an hour, Xiao Buli had racked up more than 8000 experience points, nearly cleansing Mass Burial Mound of all its Wandering Ghosts and Wild Spirits. The only pity was that besides the generous experience, the ghosts dropped nothing else.
System prompt: You have successfully cleansed a haunted graveyard and achieved the title—Soul Hooker, earning 20 rit Points.
Huh, there were rit Points to be had as well, Xiao Buli was a bit pleasantly surprised. It seed when luck ca, you couldn't stop it if you tried. Glancing at the Soul Slayer's Blade in his hand, which emitted a faint white glow in the night, who would've thought that such a seemingly transitional weapon could have such a heaven-defying effect? How true it was that good deeds bring good rewards.
PS: This book will be launched tomorrow, that is, on Friday. I hope after the launch, everyone can continue to support Da Sniper with more subscriptions, and I will definitely work my hardest to bring everyone a wonderful story.
