Chen Qi opened the small wooden box.
Inside the box were five vermilion pearls, a heart-shaped shell necklace, and a small harp.
[Siren’s Shell Song:
Affinity: Flower, Heart
Description: Wearing this item slightly increases your charm and modestly boosts any singing-related buff effects you receive.
Note: I’m a loyal fan of the Sea Witch’s songs.]
[Siren’s Small Harp:
Affinity: Flower
Description: A replica of the Siren’s harp, usable to perform transcendent songs.
Innate Skill: Song of the Ocean (increases activity, agility, and strength of sea beasts within range and heals their injuries. This is an innate equipnt skill that can be played without music theory knowledge.)]
The five pearls were extrely rare gems that could be sold to jewelers for one million.
“A precious gift.”
Chen Qi accepted these gifts.
They were two items designed to be used together.
Among them, the most valuable was the Siren’s Small Harp.
Unfortunately, with his earth-shaking and ghost-wailing level of musical talent, there was no way he could unleash the true potential of this transcendent item.
Its affinity was Flower; he wondered if the Flower Witch had mastered related singing skills.
Of course, the innate skill “Song of the Ocean” was a pretty good effect for Chen Qi.
The shell necklace was an item ant to be used alongside the Siren’s Small Harp.
“Thanks.”
Chen Qi put the harp into his Backpack Card, then wore the shell necklace along with the Siren Necklace.
Sadly, he didn’t have any good gifts to give in return.
He only knew how to cook!
Chen Qi spent so ti preparing a sumptuous roasted at al to feed the Sea Witch.
The Sea Witch was basically a gluttonous sea beast and quickly ate until full.
After eating, the Sea Witches lay on the coral platform and went to sleep.
The Sea Witch chorus consud a great deal of the sea beasts’ stamina.
Unconsciously, the dayti flas gradually died out, and the entire sea slowly sank into darkness.
Chen Qi took out his kerosene lamp.
It was ti to clear the D-tier Shadow Affinity dinsional rift!
Now, he had twenty different singing buffs active on him.
Within the twenty-four hours that these buffs lasted, clearing the D-tier rift would be a breeze for him!
Chen Qi opened the map. Near the Sea Witch nest was a ten-person Shadow Affinity rift.
With his current condition, a ten-person D-tier Shadow Affinity rift was absolutely no problem!
Perfect timing to press the advantage, clear the rift, and then return to the Sea Witch nest.
Without hesitation, Chen Qi headed toward the rift.
Speed clear!
...
[Inspiration identification in progress...]
[You have entered the Phantom Shadow Rift ‘Skeleton Graveyard’.]
[You cautiously enter the tomb.]
[A gigantic skeletal general erges from the darkness, mocking your frail body and questioning the value of your life.]
[You throw a punch and kill the skeletal general...]
[The skeletal general triggers Deathrattle, summoning the skeletal archmage.]
[You throw a punch and kill the skeletal archmage...]
[The skeletal archmage also triggers Deathrattle, summoning a group of skeletal minions...]
[You kill the skeletal minions, who trigger Blind Speech and summon skeletal puppies...]
...
...
[You clear the rift with a perfect S rating and draw two skill cards.]
[You obtain skill card—Shadow Blade Slash.]
[You obtain one-ti use skill card—Empty Skeletal Head.]
“Done. Why do all monsters here have Deathrattle?”
Chen Qi exited the rift and checked the two new skill cards he had gained.
Empty Skeletal Head was a Phantom Affinity skill card.
Its effect was ‘give up thinking’ and then resist one ntal attack; a one-ti skill.
Moreover, if you die while ‘giving up thinking,’ it would trigger Deathrattle, summoning a fierce skeletal general.
However, to use it, you must have Phantom Affinity insight.
“Early ga, Phantom skill cards really are trash...”
Chen Qi accepted this skill card, planning to find a chance to sell it on the black market.
In the New Day ga, the symbol of Phantom Affinity was nothingness.
Not just the skills—in the early ga, related professions were usually extrely weak and also very rare.
At the sa ti, none of the six countries in the New Day world governed Phantom or Shadow affinities.
Like Shadow Affinity, Phantom Affinity, a more negative affinity, originated from the Hunter organization located in the forgotten lands underground.
Although there were no top-tier transcendent organizations, Shadow Affinity, due to its ‘villain’ nature combined with decent power, still attracted many players.
Phantom Affinity was different; profession cards were rare, and early power was extrely weak.
Thus, very few players chose the Phantom path.
Fortunately, the second skill card he got was not bad at all.
[Shadow Blade Slash:
Affinity: Blade, Shadow
Usage Requirents: Master Qi energy, with minor insight in Shadow or Blade affinity
Description: Operates Qi energy throughout the body, enchanting the weapon with sharp black thunder, swinging out a powerful Qi slash!]
This skill card perfectly matched his current status.
Shadow Blade Slash could be understood as a Qi slash of the Shadow Affinity, simply put, a sword Qi type move.
It enhanced attack power while expanding attack range!
Blade Qi was a man’s romance!
Coincidentally, Chen Qi’s weapon was a blade.
Shadow Blade Slash was a very good combat supplent.
Chen Qi accepted this skill card.
Lately, he had been using skill cards too frequently; it was best to wait a few days before digesting this one.
“Not a bad haul...”
Under the faint moonlight, Chen Qi walked on water toward the Sea Witch nest.
His next plan was to harvest the sea beasts’ resources and then see if there were any rare sea beasts to place in the White Tree Shallows.
Finally, he would go pick up the Flower Witch.
Just then, suddenly, a small Sea Witch with green algae tentacle hair erged from the water.
Adult Sea Witches were as tall as 1.8 ters, with so even exceeding two ters.
However, Little Green Algae was a malnourished small Sea Witch with a fishtail, standing only about 1.4 ters when upright.
In the water, it appeared even smaller.
“Little Green Algae, aren’t you asleep...”
Chen Qi smiled slightly and patted the tentacle hair.
Little Green Algae’s tentacles moved, then it flailed its hands in panic:
“Wah wah wah Σ(°△°|||)——”
Huh? What does that an? Chen Qi was startled.
At this mont, the Deepsea Water Spirits also moved.
“Wait...”
Chen Qi imdiately beca alert.
Little Green Algae seed to be warning him of nearby danger!
Sothing that could scare Little Green Algae? Could it be a night Shadow Demon?
No... Chen Qi quickly dismissed that guess.
“Is soone nearby...”
Without hesitation, he imdiately used his skill.
Darkness Concealnt!
Chen Qi held his breath as a faint veil seed to cover his body, hiding him in the darkness.
Not only his breathing but even the spiritual energy field around him was lightly covered by this veil.
With the many buffs provided by the Sea Witch, his concealnt in the darkness was extrely strong.
Unless it was a mage of Teacher An’s level, it was impossible to detect him.
Could it be the Mad Shark he encountered before?
Chen Qi looked toward the water again.
Although most Sea Witches were asleep, the black-armored sharks were still active.
Chen Qi definitely could not defeat the third-tier transcendent Mad Shark in battle now.
But just for self-protection, it should not be a problem.
Why would they co to the Sea Witch nest? And why dare to co here?
As a Lantern Bearer, he should stay curious.
“Deepsea Water Spirits, follow .”
Chen Qi dove underwater, trailing carefully behind a black-armored shark, swimming cautiously toward the heart of the Sea Witch nest.
Relying on Darkness Concealnt, he successfully hid behind a reef, next to which lay a sleeping great sea serpent.
A perfect hiding spot... Chen Qi concealed himself and looked into the distance.
Sure enough, he saw lights and a full ten steam launches.
On each small boat stood a fully ard mber of the Blackfin Crew.
At the forefront was the captain of the Black Shark—the Mad Shark!
He was two ters tall, with silver-white intertwined hair, a massive inverted triangle-shaped body, and broad, sturdy shoulders like a weathered reef.
His physique could no longer be described as bovine; it was more like a giant bear.
“Interesting, daring to co here by small boat.”
Chen Qi thought to himself.
One wrong move, and these Black Shark mbers would beco shark food!
Undoubtedly, they must have special tools to dare venture here.
But more than that, he was curious why they had co to the Sea Witch nest.
In front of Mad Shark stood a tall woman.
She had smooth black hair, a crow mask, and wore a long black feathered robe.
Like a crow symbolizing ill on.
Chen Qi was slightly shocked.
She was soone he knew.
Now, Little Crow had been promoted to a cadre of the Blackfin Crew.
