Chapter 232: Passing The 12th Checkpoint On The Main Road and The Invisible Treasure Chest
“Are you going to take the main road? Why didn’t you wake me up?”
After she calmed down, Lin Ying looked at the situation in the hall and turned to Ling Yi with a smile. “I’ll help you. Wanqing is here too, so I’ll merge with her.”
“Eh?”
Hearing this, Xia Wanqing was stunned for a moment and waved her hands to refuse, “No. No need.”
“Why?”
Lin Ying was greatly puzzled. She walked up to her and asked, “These days, you seem to be avoiding me on purpose. You don’t want to merge with me. Why?”
Xia Wanqing bit her lower lip and shyly held onto Ling Yi’s arm.
Lin Ying blinked her eyes and immediately understood what she meant. Previously, she had indeed said in the “Genius Ladies Alliance” group chat that she would only integrate “pure virgins”.
“Mm… It’s fine.”
After pondering for a while, Lin Ying nodded and smiled. “I can accept that there’s no one else in my body now. Come on, come on, merge with me.”
Seeing this, Xia Wanqing no longer hesitated and quickly entered her body.
Right now, she was only a little player in her forties. After the tenth checkpoint of the main road, she might not even be able to defeat an ordinary monster. Only by fusing with Lin Ying would she be able to unleash her full potential!
…
‘CLANG!’
On the 12th stage of the main road, on the Extreme Frost Icy Plains.
Ling Yi held the burning battle flag and fought the level 70 leader — the Ice Field Warlord.
The Ice Field Warlord was a high agility, high strength humanoid close combat leader. Its weapon was an ice spear.
Among the players, the reputation of the Ice Field Warlord was rather wide. It could even be described as ‘famous’.
With its comprehensive attribute panel, powerful close-combat ability, and extremely powerful control, it defeated countless challengers one after another.
The average first failure rate across all servers was more than 80%!
However…
It was such a famous Leader monster, but at this time, it could only be suppressed by a player whose level was lower than it.
It even looked relaxed.
Buzzzzzz!
Ling Yi’s burning Battle Flag once again collided with its ice spear. The powerful force caused the latter to be unable to withstand it and was sent flying. This time, the former sped up and teleported to catch up. The burning Battle Flag in his hand slashed down with all its might!
The flame Wave slashed out at a close distance and struck the Icy Blue Frost Armor of the Icy Field Warlord.
With a ‘bang’, a large hole was cut in the armor, revealing the body condensed from ice.
“It’s covered in ice, so flames can’t burn it.”
The fire element of the Elemental Spirit Blade could set the target on fire, dealing high damage over time.
If it couldn’t be ignited, the damage of the Elemental Spirit Blade would be much less.
Even so, Ling Yi still continued to use the wave of flames to slash at his opponent. After all, his opponent only had a sliver of life left.
When the wave of flames passed through the armor and directly attacked the enemy’s body, the damage dealt to the enemy was clearly much higher than before.
After a few hits, he took away the last bit of his life force.
[You’ve killed the Ice Field Warlord (level 70, leader), EXP +1,100]
[You have obtained the 7-Star skill [Ice Armor]]
[You have obtained…]
‘… now, I can easily solo a level 70 leader.’
The world’s number one player under level 70 was crushed by him — it couldn’t touch him even when he was only attacking a few normal attacks.
The level 70 leader monster was easily killed by him — it was killed in just a few minutes with the light and fire Dual Elemental Blade.
Ling Yi felt a strong sense of achievement as he looked at the Icy Field Warlord who had turned into specks of light and disappeared.
“The current me should already be on par with Xiao Bing.”
He turned around and looked at the battlefield behind him. The Ice Queen, the eight Battle Angels, and Lin Ying had cleared out most of the monsters in this stage. There was no need for him to take action anymore.
Ling Yi was stunned when he noticed an invisible treasure chest inside the Ice Cave.
‘Is this an invisible treasure chest that randomly appears anywhere on God’s Path map?’
Not only did this type of treasure chest have an invisible appearance, but it was also extremely rare. It often contained rare items and was publicly recognized as the most valuable treasure chest.
This was the first time Ling Yi had seen such an item. He couldn’t help but fall beside the treasure chest and open it. When he opened it, the treasure’s light spilled out and illuminated his face.
After the light faded, three items lay quietly in the treasure chest.
[Gemstone (C-grade • Rare)]: When placed in a backpack, the items in the backpack will not be stolen.
[Alchemy (9 Star • Rare)]: As long as the specific materials were gathered, there was hope of creating a specific treasured medicine. The higher the quality of the treasured medicine, the lower the success rate.
[Necklace of Purity (D-grade • Rare)]: After wearing it, one could clean themselves at all times.
“Wow! All three of them are rare.”
The rarity meant that these items couldn’t appear in the God’s Path shop and could only be obtained through fortuitous encounters. And even if it was a fortuitous encounter, the probability of meeting them was not high.
Ling Yi didn’t know if opening this treasure chest would trigger his [Probability Reversal] ability, but from the looks of it, it was good for him.
After thinking for a while, he decided to simulate the mutation of the first two items and directly mutate the third item.
After spending hundreds of mutation points, he finally got the following three results.
[Gemstone (C-grade • Rare)]: … Items in the bag will not be stolen or spied on. Upon death, the items in the bag will not drop.
[Alchemy (9 Star • Rare)]:… There was a small chance of creating two precious medicines at the same time.
[Necklace of Purity (D- grade • Rare)]:… Cleaning himself and his surroundings.
After putting the three items into his bag, Ling Yi let out a sigh of relief.
With the Gemstone, the items in his bag would be fully protected.
With the Alchemy Skill, he would be able to create B-grade, A-grade, and even S-grade precious medicine!
‘With the help of Probability Reversal, the higher the quality of the precious medicine, the higher my success rate will be!’
The [Alchemy] Skill was an unexpected surprise.
Originally, he had come to the main road to help Xia Wanqing get the transformation Skill she wanted.
Now that he had obtained this, he even had a feeling of being truly invincible!
He no longer hesitated and quickly learned [Alchemy].
[You have learned the Skill [Alchemy]!]
This would be one of the reasons why he would be invincible in the world in the future!
After a while, the Ice Queen and Lin Ying, who had cleared out all the monsters in this checkpoint, returned.
“Are we still going to continue? The next ones are monsters above level 70.” Lin Ying, who was wearing a beige dress, asked cautiously.
Her golden tassel skirt swayed between her legs, and a wisp of worry appeared on her delicate jade-like face.
In the face of higher and higher level monsters, she was already somewhat unable to follow her heart.
“Mm…”
“I want to fight all the way to the 15th checkpoint on the main road,” Ling Yi said after a moment of silence.
Lin Ying gritted her teeth. Her expression was a little desolate, but she still nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll go with you.”
After saying that, she made a decision in her heart. ‘I need to level up faster and find more people to merge with!’
‘Otherwise, I won’t be able to keep up with the big boss’ pace.’
Both parties flew towards the 13th checkpoint.
