Even those foods that can provide temporary attribute boosts are usually only used before battles.
But Wentian Wuji and the others are different. Perhaps the experience of "dying once" makes them cherish the experience of "living" in this world, or maybe their rebirth grants them real senses, allowing them to enjoy the pleasure that gourt food brings.
Everyone here is quite willing to spend money on eating and drinking.
At this mont, everyone is feasting on a table full of exotic delicacies and fine wines, with a lively atmosphere as if they’re truly a group of Jianghu Friends drinking and celebrating together.
"Hey, it’s Feng coming! Rare guest, rare guest!" The sharp-eyed Jiu Jianxian was the first to spot Xiao Jie walking up the stairs and imdiately waved warmly to greet him.
Xiao Jie was not shy, smiled and walked over, sitting down in the empty spot beside An Ran. His gaze swept over the group, habitually checking their current levels and profession information. He noticed they had all reached Level 35-36, and their leveling speed was quite comndable. Their professions were diverse, each appearing rare and powerful.
"Hey, from the looks of it, you’re all living quite comfortably." Xiao Jie took the cup of wine poured by An Ran, sipped a bit, and said with a smile, "How about it, has your cultivation been smooth lately? Found any... hmm, clues about ascension?"
Hao Mie put down the wine cup in his hand, sighed heavily, and wore a face of gloom: "Ah, Feng, don’t even bring it up! Immortal cultivation, there’s absolutely no clue! It feels just like Mirror Flower Water Moon, visible but intangible."
"Yeah, yeah," Xia Yi the Unrivaled alongside shrugged helplessly and chid in, "Though we’ve been fortunate enough to unlock rare and hidden professions, and our combat power has indeed increased a lot. However... these professions have nothing to do with ’Immortal’, not even close! It feels like we’re on a completely different advanced path."
Everyone spoke one after another, quickly narrating their recent situations.
Due to the advantage of "two lifetis", carrying the ga understanding and skill foundation from the previous life, plus having received guidance or gifts from several Immortals, they’ve almost all unlocked rare professions that are considered top-tier in ordinary players’ eyes.
Jiu Jianxian is now a [Demon-slaying Sword Saint], equivalent to an Enhanced Sword Master, with additional restraint traits against evil spirits.
Hao Mie has transitioned into a [Dragon Slayer Martial Saint], boasting the strong combat power of the Martial Saint, earning an extra Legendary Trait with each dragon slain.
Wentian Wuji has beco a [Heavenly chanism Envoy], not only can he use Qin Dunjia but also perceive heavenly secrets and predict the future, even calculating the skills enemies will use during fights.
Xia Yi the Unrivaled has unlocked [Martial Arts Tyrant], capable of learning the essence of various martial arts and integrating them, even subduing martial artists to beco his subordinates, with a maximum of four Elite level Martial Arts Masters to battle, practically a human Boss...
However, as they themselves said, although these professions are maxed out in strength, the description and skill system show no trace related to "ascension" or "Immortal Path". It’s like their growth paths have been parallel lines with Xiao Jie’s "Immortal Road" from the start, without any intersection point.
Even the career progression of An Ran, who Xiao Jie held high hopes for, encountered issues. Xiao Jie originally thought that with her "Ancient Qi Cultivator" legacy and dual role as a "Demon Master", she should naturally unlock the hidden profession "Demon Refiner", following his old path.
Unexpectedly, An Ran instead unlocked a hidden profession called [Master of Ten Thousand Demons].
"What about your ’Ancient Qi Cultivation Technique’?"
An Ran shook her head helplessly, explained: "It’s gone. After advancing to [Master of Ten Thousand Demons], the ’Ancient Qi Cultivation Technique’ skill was directly integrated into the new Core Skill [Refining Demon Blood].
According to the profession background description, my character changed fundantally in bloodline Spiritual Energy due to long-term cultivation of demon art, switching entirely to the cultivation system of the Demon Race, thus completely losing the ability to continue practicing the orthodox Qi Refinent.
She paused and continued explaining the profession’s characteristics: "Instead, I can actively refine the origin essence blood of powerful Demon Race. Successfully refining a certain demon blood, I can receive corresponding Demon Race bloodline empowernt, able to use the exclusive Innate Demon Technique of that Demon Race and obtain so racial traits. Theoretically, I can simultaneously refine and store up to nine different demon blood types."
Nine demon blood types... which ans nine Innate Demon Techniques can be learned, and the bloodline form can be switched based on the battle situation... It must be said, the potential and flexibility of this profession are quite strong.
Moreover, An Ran ntioned that this profession can elevate the highest level of demon arts to "Saint Level", which is already the peak of Mortal Magic, the power should not be underestimated.
However——unable to beco an Immortal, ultimately, it’s all in vain.
Xiao Jie sighed, didn’t expect the route he thought most foolproof also encountered issues, would it have been better if he had let An Ran transition to Beast Tar back then?
Listening to everyone’s accounts, Xiao Jie was montarily silent. Could it be that Gu Feiyu’s initial speculation was true? The so-called "Immortal Fate", the path to Cheng Xian, is truly unique, unable to be duplicated? Does the system (or perhaps Heavenly Dao) strictly limit the number of Ascenders?
