491: Chapter 70 Three Demon Arts 491: Chapter 70 Three Demon Arts “Just relax, I’ll be ready to log on then.
I guess I’ll head off now,” Bai Ze said, before leaving.
After sending Bai Ze off, there was finally only Xiao Jie, Ye Luo, and I Want to Be Immortal left–of course, there was also Yuan Bai.
“Feng, where did you find this old man?”
I Want to Be Immortal asked in surprise as he watched Yuan Bai drink and eat.
It was his first ti seeing Yuan Bai, and though he had occasionally heard Xiao Jie vaguely ntion the White Ape, he hadn’t made the connection between the two.
Xiao Jie didn’t explain; it would be too much of a hassle.
“Let’s not talk about him right now, I have sothing good for you guys.”
As he spoke, Xiao Jie sent one Red Spirit Fruit to each of them through a trade.
There had been six fruits on that Red Spirit Fruit Tree.
He had eaten one, sold two, the White Ape had given one to the la old monkey, leaving these two fruits, which had originally been left on the tree.
Xiao Jie had directly plucked them all this ti.
Each person could eat only one fruit effectively, which was perfect for I Want to Be Immortal and Ye Luo.
“Wow!
Feng, this is great stuff, an Immortal Fruit!”
I Want to Be Immortal looked it over and was delighted.
Although it was a Deteriorated Immortal Fruit, it was still an Immortal Fruit.
“Thanks, Feng, I was really in need of so comprehension.”
“How much comprehension do you have now?”
“16, and with this, it’ll be 17.
If I eat another Ti Hu Pill, I’ll be able to comprehend a secret technique.”
Xiao Jie was a bit surprised, “16 already?
Have you been ‘eating books’?”
“Yes,” I Want to Be Immortal admitted shyly.
“Lately, almost all the money I’ve saved has gone into ‘eating books.’ I didn’t tell you, Feng, you won’t mind, right?”
“Heh, of course, I don’t mind.
It’s comforting to know that you have your own growth strategy and know how to increase your power.
You know the rules for ‘eating books,’ right?”
I Want to Be Immortal responded, “Yeah, I know—I start with the low-level scriptures, then work my way up to higher ones.
My comprehension was originally low, so I’ve only ‘eaten’ the cheapest books.”
‘Eating books’ ant reading Taoist Scriptures, which disappear upon use, so players jokingly referred to it as ‘eating books.’
There’s a knack to improving comprehension through reading Taoist Scriptures, mainly focusing on two factors: one is the maximum amount of comprehension they can raise, with most scriptures having a limit beyond which they can’t be read—so can’t be read after reaching 15 points of comprehension, others have a threshold of 20 points, and then there are those for over 30 points.
Naturally, the higher this comprehension limit, the better.
The second factor is the number of comprehension points they can raise.
Most scriptures can only increase comprehension by 1 point.
Better ones can raise it by 1-2 points, depending on how well the player understands the text.
There’s even a Top-Grade scripture that can give up to a 3 comprehension boost upon successful understanding.
However, these are rare.
Xiao Jie hadn’t seen them in the auction house; he’d only heard about them.
Since each scripture can only be read once by a player, the order in which they are read is critical.
Typically, one would start with low-ranking, rubbish scriptures in the early stage and gradually progress because reading ordinary scriptures later on would be useless.
“I read a Diamond Sutra, a Dharma Flower Sutra, and a Carefree Scripture, adding a total of 3 points to my comprehension.
Nearly all of the money I earned in Canglin State went into that.
Luckily, I got so silver from sharing loot in raids, so I had enough to buy a Ti Hu Pill, and there was the Old Man’s Bamboo Hat you gave .
Now, after eating a Red Spirit Fruit, I’ve finally raised my comprehension to 17 points.”
Xiao Jie nodded.
I Want to Be Immortal may have started late but had managed to stack his comprehension.
With his current strength, comprehending a secret technique would give him a significant power boost.
“Ye Luo, what about you?
How much comprehension do you have?”
“23— now 24,” Ye Luo said calmly.
“That high?”
Xiao Jie was sowhat surprised; he had only reached 25 comprehension with the benefit of his Spiritual Charm.
“I started with 15 points of comprehension, and a friend gave a Spirit Communication Jade, which added 3 points.”
Xiao Jie thought to himself, wow, Ye Luo really keeps his cards close to the chest—a starting comprehension of 15 points?
That’s exceptional intelligence.
Although the system did not specify, Xiao Jie felt that there was likely a correlation between comprehension and intelligence because he had once tested his own IQ when bored, around 130, and his starting ga comprehension was precisely 13 points.
Wouldn’t it an those with extraordinary intelligence would start with a comprehension of 18, 19, or even 20 if they played the ga?
But Ye Luo continued, “Right, are you really confident you can help Bai Ze advance his swordsmanship to Grandmaster Level?”
“More or less, I have so ideas; why do you ask?”
“Nothing in particular, it’s just that I also need to level up my swordsmanship skill, so we can study it together.”
“Why do you need to level up your swordsmanship?”
“The next advancent for Impermanence Walker is Huangquan Envoy.
It requires any weapon skill to reach Grandmaster Level, and also, I need to increase my ghost curse to Expert Level.
Plus, I need to raise my rit Points to 3000.”
Xiao Jie thought, that requirent is even more outrageous than for Sword Master.
Wouldn’t that an the Huangquan Envoy is very strong?
“So, does the Huangquan Envoy have any special abilities?”
“Heh, you’ll see in ti.”
Xiao Jie was speechless; Ye Luo really liked to play his cards close to the vest.
He didn’t press further; level 30 was still a way off.
“We’re heading out early tomorrow morning.
It seems there’s no auction house in Ghost Mist Ridge, so you two should also get prepared.
Buy whatever you need to buy.”
Both of them acknowledged and then left on their own.
Now it was just little Xiao Jie and Yuan Bai.
“Are those two your friends?”
“Right, they’re good friends who’ve been with through thick and thin,” Xiao Jie said as he sat down and right-clicked the wine jug for a drink.
“Life’s opportunities are like flowers; if you can pick them, do it right away.
Don’t wait until there are no flowers left to pick the branches.
Brother, let give you so advice.
When it’s ti to make a move, do it.
Don’t miss out on a good match—she seems decent, a good match indeed.”
