[Honor points consumed: 20]

[Acquired: Five Thunder Art—Talisman Art]

The strongest skill Ninth Uncle had was the “Five Thunder Art” of the Maoshan sect.

However, he only remembered the talisman art, either because of the “demotion” or for other reasons.

Initially, Ji Ye was a little worried that he would not be able to practice similar cultivation techniques because he had already cultivated Earth’s Boon. However, because he was using his divine sense and soul power to draw talismans, using talisman arts to cast spells like “lightning”, “exorcism”, and “ghost suppression”, there were no conflicts. In fact, because he had cultivated Earth’s Boon to Lesser Mastery, his divine senses had also reached Extraordinary Rank-2. It was greatly beneficial in learning this talisman art!

“Use EXP to cultivate!”

“In the midst of consumption... Five Thunder Art, Talisman Art. Basic Mastery!”

The only regret was that the Fusion talent was still on cooldown. Therefore, it was temporarily impossible to reach the level of complete mastery or even surpass Ninth Uncle’s level.

However, after killing the Commander-level Soul yesterday, he obtained a large amount of EXP and Honor. It was enough for him to forcefully cultivate this technique to basic mastery!

Although it was only at the level of basic mastery, his powerful mental strength was enough for him to draw some talismans that did not have high requirements.

However, this was not enough because each talisman had its own proficiency requirements...

“Use EXP to practice exorcism talismans and thunder talismans!”

By the afternoon, Ji Ye had consumed more than 500 EXP points, completely mastering two specific charms!

The exorcism talisman could expel ghosts and spirits from possessed bodies, thus exposing them.

Without a body to protect them, the thunder talisman was undoubtedly the most lethal weapon.

By combining it with the exorcism talisman, he could theoretically eliminate a Soul in one try!

Speaking of which, I have an idea during the cultivation process. Perhaps I can give it a try in the future.

After mastering the two talismans, Ji Ye, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, opened his eyes and looked at the Black Serpent Sword beside him. A thought lingered in his mind!

This kind of Maoshan talisman art required the casting of blood with spirituality to cast.

Ordinary people could only bite their fingers in battle to draw blood for a blood talisman attack.

However, the Black Serpent Sword could theoretically extract the other party’s blood and even control it.

Then, in a battle, could he draw talismans out of thin air using the opponent’s blood as a way to supplement his attacks?

Ji Ye felt that, theoretically, it was feasible. However, he could not do it at the moment. After all, he had just gained basic mastery of talisman arts. Furthermore, he had only grasped two types of talismans!

Besides, the Souls that were coming tonight probably didn’t have any blood for him to extract.

...

“Oh, you exchanged your equipment?”

When Ji Ye walked out of the room, he saw several players from the second batch walking out of the settlement.

He found several items that did not match the style of Twin Dragon Mount.

It was obvious that the second batch of players chose to spend 1 Honor point to exchange for their starter equipment.

“Rune Bows!”

Qin Yueyu held a large bow in her hand. The wooden body of the bow was covered in an ancient dark-red color. It was paired with twenty similarly dark-red arrows. The bow and arrows were engraved with runes that likely had a Daoist cultivation style. action

“It’s a magical artifact. It’s engraved with a kind of fire talisman. After a hit, it will trigger a spiritual fire. It deals immense damage against ghosts!”

After carefully examining the runes on it, Ninth Uncle judged.

This effect was undoubtedly similar to Ji Ye’s Flame Burst Crossbow. The ten rune arrows were all single-use.

In fact, all players’ starter equipment had limited usage or limited time.

“Combat Strength Eyepiece, tech-type item. Can detect creatures with energy and vital fluctuations. Also, calculate the target’s general level!”

Li Qing was wearing a translucent red, squarish eyepiece that covered one of his eyes.

“Brother Li, did you enjoy watching Dragon Ball when you were young?”

An Quan, who was wearing a golden hoop that resembled Monkey King’s headband, wore a curious look as he commented.

“Electromagnetic Converter, convert your thoughts into electronic information!”

Seeing the others staring at him, he pointed at his head in frustration.

This thing was definitely very useful to a programmer.

However, it was clearly useless for the battle tonight. After all, the other party was from the Soul race and not from the Machine race!

“You have reached Rank-5?”

Li Qing’s scouter flashed as he spoke, causing An Quan to feel extremely depressed.

As an IT worker who spent most of his time in his office, he was only a Rank-4 when he entered.

This was because he had been assisting the two old men for the past two days. He had obtained some Stone Milk as a reward and had risen to Rank-5!

He had embarrassed all his fellow men.

“Haha, a telekinesis device that can control objects!”

On Shang Yan’s head was a black, leather-like ring-shaped item. Her expression was the complete opposite of An Quan.

Apart from Jiang Wenming, all the players present were familiar with psychic abilities. This was clearly a super practical ability!

At least, in the battle tonight, Shang Yan had a life-saving measure that was far better than others.

As for Su Nongying, she was holding a red notebook with more than a hundred pages. The cover had two yellow dragon patterns on it.

“Is this Chidragon’s household register booklet?”

An Quan looked curious.

“Identity Register. It gives me the ability to check the information of members in a settlement. However, I need to be near the core shrine. Also, I need to be authorized by the fort’s master!]

Su Nongying looked at Ji Ye expectantly.

“Sure.”

Ji Ye nodded.

For the past two days, he had not been managing the fort. Some matters were handled by Shang Yan and Su Nongying. Compared to a non-professional like him, these two undoubtedly were better than him when they worked together.

However, Su Nongying’s equipment was not very useful for tonight’s battle. After all, even if they could find some “special talents”, there wasn’t enough time to be of much use.

As for the two veteran players, the starter equipment they exchanged for were also logistical in nature like Su Nongying’s.

Elder Jiao had obtained a “3D printer” that belonged to the technology field, while Elder Meng had a “language translation rune” that should be considered magic!

These two things were undoubtedly very meaningful for the development of a settlement.

It was obvious that everyone’s starter equipment was related to their past occupations or social achievements in reality.

Only Jiang Wenming felt a little awkward because he hadn’t obtained 1 Honor point to date!

However, he would definitely be able to obtain enough Honor points during the battle tonight. This was because Ji Ye had learned when he went offline that one could obtain more Honor points than killing monsters.

Due to the impending war, almost all the old rookies revealed the attributes of their starter equipment without holding anything back. Except for one person...
