Chapter 231 – The Pursuit of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect [Earth Grade Sword Technique · Falling Thunder Sword Technique]: "Insects tremble, beasts shiver, frost and snow in summer, thunder roars in winter." Passive Effect: Sword Qi damage (normal attack) +50%, and each time a normal attack hits the opponent, Sword Qi damage increases by 5%, stacking up to 100%, excluding critical damage. Active Effect: Every 10 seconds in battle, a Thunder Sword Spirit can be summoned to assist in attacking the opponent, dealing 1000 points of fixed true damage, ignoring armor, and returning 10% of the damage as a shield. The shield value can stack. Cooldown Time: None, Mana Consumption: 100 mana per sword. Requirements: 80 points of root bone, Crystal Realm Sword Cultivator to learn. Lin Jichen confirmed that this was indeed Ye Wentian's Falling Thunder Sword Technique. As expected of an Earth Grade Sword Technique, it was indeed powerful! The passive effect alone was already domineering, and the active effect was flawless, dealing massive damage while continuously stacking shields for himself. It was both offensive and defensive, extremely cost-effective. With this sword technique, Lin Jichen's strength would increase by another level! Ye Wentian had risen to fame with this sword technique. He was originally an unknown ordinary Sword Cultivator, but later his reputation soared, and his strength increased dramatically. However, his character was poor. After his strength skyrocketed, he went around killing and robbing, bullying the weak, and step by step became a top Sword Cultivator with a notorious reputation. Therefore, Lin Jichen had no psychological burden in seizing his opportunity, instead, he felt a sense of justice.@@@@ Besides this sword technique, Lin Jichen looked at another item in the box, a crimson gemstone. Lin Jichen was no stranger to this thing; it was not some precious jewelry but an attribute gemstone used for forging equipment! The gemstone could be embedded in equipment to increase its attributes, something all players in later generations would do. However, embedding gemstones had a success rate and required a professional equipment master to forge. Moreover, the lower the grade of the equipment, the fewer gemstones it could embed; the better the equipment, the more gemstones it could embed. The one in Lin Jichen's hand was a gemstone that increased strength. [Earth Grade Gemstone · Stone of Slaughter]: Embed in equipment to increase strength by 30 points and comes with a 1% lifesteal effect. Seeing this, a smile appeared on Lin Jichen's lips. This thing was just right to enhance his Dark Night Sword. His Bloodthirsty Heart Sutra already had a 1% lifesteal effect, and with this gemstone, it would be a 2% lifesteal effect. Don't underestimate 2%; the higher the damage, the more health it restores. However, for now, he could only find an NPC equipment master. The current player equipment masters were definitely not skilled enough, and the success rate was too low. He didn't want to risk failure. "Perfect, I can practice my new sword technique on you!" Lin Jichen's figure suddenly blurred, disappearing from everyone's sight. The next moment, he appeared in front of a demonic sect disciple at the early Crystal Realm, just like him. A swift slash to the throat! Clean and decisive! Ruthless strike! The disciple clutched his throat, eyes wide open, blood gushing from his neck. [Critical Hit! -4100!] Everyone present was shocked! What kind of damage was that? The disciple's defense was only around two hundred, while Lin Jichen's strength was as high as 425, with critical damage doubling the effect. Unfortunately, the Falling Thunder Sword Technique couldn't trigger critical damage. If it could be combined with the new sword technique's damage stacking, it would double again! Even so, as long as the opponent's defense was not higher than Lin Jichen's strength, any random strike from him could deal damage comparable to a critical hit. This was the first time Lin Jichen had dealt such terrifying normal attack damage! Without giving the opponent a chance to react, Lin Jichen continued his relentless assault, each strike leaving terrifying, tearing wounds on the opponent's vital points. Four to five thousand damage numbers popped up one after another. Seeing this, the other Ten Thousand Demon Sect disciples immediately tried to support, only to find that Lin Jichen moved like a ghost, dodging their attacks with ease. In just a moment, the early Crystal Realm disciple had turned into a corpse, dead on the spot. Everyone still found it hard to believe. Weren't they both at the early Crystal Realm? Why was this person killing so effortlessly? Lin Jichen casually shook his sword, the Dark Night Sword seemingly letting out an excited hum. The thin man also sensed something was wrong. As an Inner Temple disciple of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, he wasn't stupid. He immediately joined the battle, aiming to kill Lin Jichen with lightning speed. Facing the siege of dozens of demonic cultivators, Lin Jichen remained calm. First, he used the Shadow Shift of the Nightmare Cloak to dodge the first wave of attacks. Then, like a storm, he flew into the crowd, combining the Gale Sword Technique with the Falling Thunder Sword Technique, his sword strikes like a tide. Sword Qi crisscrossed, wreaking havoc. The disciples began to fight back with all their might. For a time, the mountaintop was filled with the clash of blades and swords, with spiritual power collisions creating violent shockwaves and explosions.
