Chapter 31 – Trigger fate task Lin Jichen returned to his quarters in the back mountain and took out the Gathering Qi Pill. Sitting cross-legged, he swallowed the elixir. Moments after the elixir entered his stomach, a surge of rich spiritual energy spread throughout his body from his abdomen. The previously blocked meridians seemed to clear up instantly, making him feel extremely comfortable all over. [Ding! Breakthrough to the middle stage of Qi Refining, all basic attributes +10 points, vitality +1000, mana +1000!] [Ding! Consumed a top-grade Gathering Qi Pill, free attribute points +30!] Finally, a breakthrough. Lin Jichen then looked at the martial arts techniques and equipment rewarded by the sect missions. [Spirit Grade Martial Arts Technique · Frost Moon Slash]: Condenses mana to unleash a crescent-shaped Sword Qi within a 15-meter range in front, causing 300 base damage plus the user's attack damage to those hit by the Sword Qi. The Sword Qi is like frost, with a 20% chance to freeze the enemy, slowing their speed. Mana consumption: 200 points, cooldown: 30 seconds. Requirement: Only Sword Cultivator players can learn. [Spirit Grade Boots · Cloud Step Boots]: Speed +12, Evasion +2%, Leg-based skill damage +60. Requirement: None. Both items were quite good, and Lin Jichen was very satisfied. He then used the spoils he got from Zhou Hao and Zhou Shen.all new stories at Next was the distribution of free attribute points. Without a doubt, Lin Jichen evenly distributed them between strength and speed. As for defense, Lin Jichen wouldn't allocate any points there. Most players wouldn't dare to allocate points as extremely as Lin Jichen did; many would still consider an even distribution, with defense being indispensable. Although Lin Jichen had never played as a Sword Cultivator, he knew one thing. Sword Cultivators pursue the ultimate output. Sword Qi spans thirty thousand miles, a single sword light chills nineteen provinces! If a Sword Cultivator doesn't max out their damage, they're no different from a salted fish. But to max out damage, speed must also keep up. In his past life, some players only pursued damage. They allocated all their points to strength. While their damage was maxed out, their movements were as slow as snails, and they were dumbfounded when surrounded by enemies. In his past life, the number one Sword God in "Tale of Immortal," Chen Yuan, once said that the most important aspects of a Sword Cultivator are output and agility. A Sword Cultivator with only output and no speed is not to be feared; having both is the essence of a Sword Cultivator. As for defense and other attributes, they can be gradually increased through equipment, elixirs, and major realm enhancements. After distributing the free attribute points, Lin Jichen checked his current attributes, which had undergone a tremendous change! [Player: Lin Jichen] This sword technique was very suitable for Lin Jichen. His strength was already high, and his speed was also high, but that was only movement speed. What he needed to consider was the speed of his sword strikes. Moreover, the passive effect of this sword technique was very practical, especially when facing high-health, high-defense bosses or large groups of enemies; the longer the fight, the faster the sword strikes. Without much hesitation, Lin Jichen chose this sword technique, which cost exactly 100 contribution points. He bought it and learned it! With this, Lin Jichen had all the skills he could learn at the Qi Refining realm and didn't need to worry about lacking skills for now. Leaving the Scripture Repository, Lin Jichen was about to head to the mission release point to take on tasks to improve his cultivation. Suddenly, he heard an explosion from a nearby side hall. In an instant, black smoke billowed from the side hall, and an old man walked out, irritably brushing off the dust on his body, muttering to himself. "Failed again. Why is the Youth Retaining Pill harder to refine than the Heavenly Origin Pill? I refuse to believe it!" Seeing this scene, Lin Jichen immediately realized this was a triggered quest, so he quickly walked over and respectfully bowed. "Greetings, Elder." Although Lin Jichen didn't recognize him, he was sure this person must be an elder, as the familiar aura of the Enlightenment Realm lingered around him! Just like the elder who taught in the inner temple square before. The white-bearded elder's eyes lit up when he saw Lin Jichen, and he seemed to be deep in thought. "I think I've seen you before. You're the last disciple taken in by the sect leader, right?" "Yes, that's me." Lin Jichen didn't dare to show any arrogance, maintaining a humble attitude. Such humility, combined with his full charm, made the white-bearded elder very pleased with Lin Jichen. "Not bad, not bad. You've just joined the sect, and in just two days, you've broken through to the middle stage of Qi Refining. It seems that cold girl has a good eye for people, haha." As he spoke, the white-bearded elder instructed Lin Jichen, "I am one of the twelve great elders of the Sword Sect, Tianqing. I am currently refining an elixir and need a medicinal guide. Would you be willing to find it for me?" "Disciple dares not refuse! I will not fail the elder's trust!" Lin Jichen agreed without hesitation, secretly astonished. He hadn't expected this old man to be the most powerful alchemy grandmaster of the Sword Sect. That [Purple Jade Elixir] was crafted by him. In fact, the elixirs of the Tianyan Sword Sect were famous throughout Mu Xian Province. Building a good relationship with such a prominent figure was crucial. [Ding! Elder Tianqing has given you a quest. Do you accept?] "Yes!" [Hell Quest]: Help Elder Tianqing find one stalk of Yin Sustaining Grass before dawn. [Quest Description]: Yin Sustaining Grass is the most important medicinal guide for refining the Youth Retaining Pill. This herb is extremely rare and must be found on the Medicine Spirit Falcon. [Quest Reward]: Elder Tianqing's reward. [Quest Hint]: The nearest Medicine Spirit Falcons are located in Canglan Medicine Valley. Each Medicine Spirit Falcon has varying strengths, generally ranging from the later stage of Qi Refining to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. Not every Medicine Spirit Falcon will drop Yin Sustaining Grass. Accepting the quest, Lin Jichen immediately bid farewell and headed to Canglan Medicine Valley. Canglan Medicine Valley wasn't far, filled with many monsters and herbs, making it an excellent place for beginners to level up and gather herbs. Lin Jichen entered the Medicine Valley.
