Chapter 185 – The use of Dao Heart fruit

Meanwhile, Lin Jichen was still examining his spoils of war.

The last item dropped by the Kai Ming Beast was a material for the Heavenly Dao Crystal.



[Northern Underworld Soul Sand]: Formed from the condensation of nether energy, it is entirely black and purple, possessing the ability to stabilize souls and capture spirits. It is used by Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators when breaking through to the Heavenly Dao Crystal.

Increases strength by +10, critical hit by +15, and maximum vitality by +1000.

Requirement: Can only be used when breaking through to the Heavenly Dao Crystal.



In addition, Lin Jichen also took out the items rewarded by the system.

This time, the first-kill reward was much better than before: a Dao Heart Fruit, a piece of Mysterious Grade equipment, and an achievement medal.

The Dao Heart Fruit is a valuable item. It allows you to choose one of your skills and elevate it to the supreme level without any conditions!

There are many types of Dao Heart Fruits, such as Martial Arts Dao Heart Fruit, Movement Technique Dao Heart Fruit, Spirit Skill Dao Heart Fruit, and so on.

Lin Jichen's was a Martial Arts Dao Heart Fruit.



[Martial Arts Dao Heart Fruit]: After consumption, you can choose one martial arts skill and elevate its proficiency to the supreme level.

Requirement: Only for martial arts skills, and you can only choose one skill.



Lin Jichen began to ponder which skill he should choose.

Currently, he had two skills at the supreme level: Dizzying Sword Qi and Frost Moon Slash.

Phoenix Feather, Wind Thunder Sword, and Gu Sword Qi were only at the mastery stage.

Breaking through to the supreme level required luck and opportunity, not just simple combat.

Now that he had the Dao Heart Fruit, he could naturally elevate one skill.

Logically, he should choose Phoenix Feather, as it was his highest damage skill.

But Phoenix Feather had a long cooldown, and Lin Jichen didn't lack damage skills. He rarely used Phoenix Feather, usually only against bosses or groups of enemies.

Lin Jichen preferred to first maximize his most frequently used skills.

After some consideration, Lin Jichen chose Wind Thunder Sword. This skill could deal damage and provide mobility, had wide applications, and a short cooldown, allowing for multiple uses.

After deciding, Lin Jichen swallowed the Dao Heart Fruit, and Wind Thunder Sword immediately changed.



[Wind Thunder Sword (Supreme)]: Dashes within a 15-meter range to strike the target, like wind and thunder, ignoring slowing and immobilizing effects, dealing 1200 damage, and increasing speed by +70% and dodge by +20% for 10 seconds.

Cooldown: 2 minutes, Mana cost: 300 points.



"Yes, you probably don't need it anyway. Why not sell it to me? I have a big use for it," Wang Jinghao said.

"You're not an axe user, are you?" Lin Jichen asked.

"I'm not, but our guild has a new member who is. He's quite skilled, and this axe is for him," Wang Jinghao explained.

"Brother Wang, you're quite generous," Lin Jichen said, a bit skeptical. Was Wang Jinghao really that kind?

Wang Jinghao laughed, "Of course, we've signed a lifetime contract. He will be our Eternal Guild's top expert from now on."

"Oh? Who is this person?" Lin Jichen asked curiously, feeling a vague sense of familiarity.

"His name is Xing Sen, a new recruit I just brought in."

Lin Jichen's eyes narrowed as he remembered.

In his previous life, the person who exposed Wang Jinghao's true nature was named Xing Sen.

Xing Sen was the number one axe user in Tale of Immortal and the top expert of the Eternal Guild.

His strength and skills were unquestionable.

Lin Jichen had once faced Xing Sen in the third Ascension Tournament, similar to a world martial arts competition, where they were placed in the same group for a match.

Lin Jichen narrowly lost to Xing Sen, Lin Jichen was not yet the top spell cultivator in Tale of Immortal at the time.

He remembered Xing Sen as a straightforward and honest person, who had politely said it was a lucky win when he defeated Lin Jichen.

Lin Jichen had a good impression of him.

But after that, they had no further interactions.

Until later, he heard that Xing Sen betrayed the Eternal Guild and took Wang Jinghao to court, exposing all of Wang Jinghao's misdeeds and true nature.

The reason Xing Sen betrayed was because Wang Jinghao had used despicable means to defile his sister.

This led the loyal and honest Xing Sen to betray the guild and take Wang Jinghao to court.

However, due to insufficient evidence and with the help of a ruthless lawyer, Wang Jinghao got away with it.

Instead, Xing Sen was ruined financially, and the two completely fell out.

Later, when the game merged with reality, Xing Sen immediately sought revenge on Wang Jinghao.

But by then, Wang Jinghao's Eternal Guild was filled with experts, and Xing Sen's revenge failed, resulting in his death.

Unexpectedly, in this life, Xing Sen still ended up as Wang Jinghao's subordinate.

If nothing changed, Xing Sen's fate would likely be the same as in the previous life.
