Lin Jichen, dressed in his pajamas, walked upstairs from his ho and knocked on Qin Xiaowei's door.
After a mont, Qin Xiaowei saw Lin Jichen through the peephole and opened the door, her face looking a bit strange. She asked in confusion, "Xiao Lin, what brings you here so late?"
Standing at her door, Lin Jichen felt a bit embarrassed and said, "Sister Xiaowei, I'm doing a task with Tang Tang. Could you not let her log off so early? This task is quite important."
"Oh, I see. No problem, you guys can play. I just habitually make her go to bed on ti. I didn't realize she was playing with you," Qin Xiaowei explained with a smile, though there seed to be a hint of fatigue in her expression, and her face looked a bit pale.
"That's good," Lin Jichen nodded, relieved, but then asked in concern, "Sister Xiaowei, are you feeling unwell?"
Qin Xiaowei blushed and said awkwardly, "It's nothing, just that ti of the month..."
Lin Jichen understood imdiately and said with concern, "You should rest and drink more hot water."
Qin Xiaowei hesitated and then said, "Xiao Lin, could you help buy sothing from downstairs?"
"Buy sothing?"
"Yes... I'm almost out," Qin Xiaowei nodded, embarrassed.
Lin Jichen realized what she ant and imdiately agreed. He rushed downstairs and, with a thick skin, bought a few packs of sanitary pads from the convenience store.
When he returned, he handed them to Qin Xiaowei.
"Thank you, Xiao Lin," Qin Xiaowei said gratefully.
"It's nothing. If there's nothing else, I'll head back now," Lin Jichen said, turning to leave.
"Wait a minute, Xiao Lin, I wanted to ask, is the Zither Cultivator in 'Tale of Immortal' any good?" Qin Xiaowei suddenly asked.
"Sister Xiaowei, you started playing?" Lin Jichen was pleasantly surprised.
He rembered that in his previous life, Qin Xiaowei never played 'Tale of Immortal.' Although she later beca famous, she was powerless to protect herself.
Fortunately, she encountered righteous forces that protected her, preventing her from being bullied. Otherwise, as an ordinary person facing various powerful cultivators, she would have been in great danger if she t any malicious ones.
Even so, Qin Xiaowei had to be cautious and often faced danger.
In the past, Lin Jichen didn't know Qin Xiaowei, so her well-being had nothing to do with him. But now, Qin Xiaowei was a good friend of his.
Lin Jichen hoped she would have the strength to protect herself in the future, rather than being just a dependent or a vase.
"Yes, seeing you all play, I tried it out in my spare ti these past two days. It's really fun, and the scenery is beautiful. But there are always so annoying male players bothering ," Qin Xiaowei said.
"It's okay, just don't add them as friends, and they can't get close to you. Also, find a sect to learn skills early on. Once you have strength, you won't be bothered by others," Lin Jichen advised.
"That's what I thought too. I saw there's a profession called Zither Cultivator, and I want to learn it. But I'm not sure if it's strong, so I wanted to ask you."
"Of course, it's strong! In 'Tale of Immortal,' all professions are powerful. Zither Cultivator is a new profession in the sound cultivation category, very useful. Its skill range is comparable to that of Formation Masters, and skilled Zither Cultivators are welcod everywhere," Lin Jichen explained.
He wasn't exaggerating. Although Zither Cultivators weren't as rare as Chess Cultivators, they were equally strong.
Zither Cultivators were also a support profession, capable of applying various debuffs to enemies and buffs to allies.
Moreover, their damage was not insignificant, with combat power far surpassing that of healers and Chess Cultivators. They could use sound to control enemies and kill with their zither.
Hearing Lin Jichen's explanation, Qin Xiaowei felt reassured.
"That's good. I'll play as a Zither Cultivator then."
"Sister Xiaowei, you're a singer, so playing music suits you perfectly. Add as a friend when you have ti, and feel free to ask if you have any questions."
"Okay, I will."
Qin Xiaowei agreed with a smile, and Lin Jichen didn't linger any longer, running back ho.
He hurried back ho and re-entered the ga.
Seeing Lin Jichen panting as he returned to the Secret Realm, the girls were puzzled.
"Why did it take so long? Where did you go after looking for Sister Xiaowei?" Ren Lan asked in confusion.
Lin Jichen was too embarrassed to say he had gone to buy sanitary pads for Qin Xiaowei, so he said he was a bit hungry and went downstairs to buy so food.
Niu Naitang, having received Qin Xiaowei's permission to continue playing, was happily bouncing around, looking like she could play all night.
Brother Lin is really useful, she thought. If Auntie ever stops her from playing gas again, she'll just go to Lin Jichen. It always works!
The ten of them resud their journey to the second level of the prison.
Each level of the prison was separated by nurous stone steps and long corridors.
The stone steps and corridors of the second level, however, were not peaceful. The corridors were filled with eerie winds, and flickering torches hung on the walls, casting an ominous silence.
As they walked up, a gust of eerie wind blew them all back.
A quick look at "pawread" will leave you more fulfilled.
Cries of pain echoed as they fell in a disarray.
Jiang Luoyu happened to fall into Lin Jichen's arms, and she quickly blushed and got out.
To cover her embarrassnt, Jiang Luoyu quickly changed the subject.
"I rember the extre difficulty level of Snowstorm Prison's second level didn't have this scene. This seems like sothing from the hell difficulty level."
Lin Jichen didn't mind and nodded, explaining, "This should be a formation. Don't go up yet; I'll check it out."
With that, Lin Jichen walked back to the stone steps and corridor. As soon as he lifted his foot, the formation activated, and an eerie wind blew. He deftly dodged, avoiding being blown back again.
Wind Ghost Formation.
Lin Jichen easily identified the formation.
Formations were a very distinctive secondary profession in 'Tale of Immortal.'
In his previous life, Lin Jichen had wanted to beco a Formation Master, but the conditions didn't allow it.
And by conditions, he ant money.
That's right, Formation Master was a very money-consuming profession.
Setting up formations required a large number of mid-grade and high-grade Spirit Stones.
So powerful formations even required Supre-grade Spirit Stones.
Moreover, formations were consumables. Once you set up a formation and it activated, you couldn't reuse it.
So Formation Masters spent money like water, and only those who weren't short on money could afford to learn it.
In his previous life, Lin Jichen didn't have the money to buy so many Spirit Stones, so he could only envy others.
But in this life, he was determined to learn formations.
In his previous life, he was poor, but in this life, he was rich (proud)!
One of the reasons he bought land and opened a shop to earn Spirit Stones was to lay the foundation for becoming a Formation Master in the future.
Formation Masters were one of the few secondary professions that greatly aided in combat, unlike Alchemy Masters and Equipnt Masters who could only make pills and equipnt.
Formation Masters could help players significantly increase their chances of winning in battles.
A highly skilled Formation Master could even challenge enemies of higher levels with ease.
The formations they set up were incredibly powerful.
