Chapter 96 – Light speed clearance "Your past is tragic, but that doesn't justify your evil deeds. Your great revenge has been fulfilled, let go of your obsessions and reincarnate." Lin Jichen looked at the Zhan monster before him and softly recited. However, the Zhan now bore no resemblance to Wan'er. It had evolved into a pure monster. Upon seeing a living person, it immediately charged forward with its terrifying thousand legs. Lin Jichen's body moved slightly, and he effortlessly dodged the Zhan's attack. At the Foundation Establishment Realm, Lin Jichen's speed was astonishingly fast. He could even appear behind his opponent before their attack landed. The Dark Night Sword swung like a black eagle, slicing through the air and striking the Zhan's abdomen. The Zhan let out a horrifying scream, a sound that was particularly chilling. It was as if hundreds of people were screaming simultaneously, shrill and hoarse, extremely piercing. "-1111!" The power of one sword strike was terrifying! The Zhan's attributes appeared before Lin Jichen's eyes. 【Monster: Zhan】【Level: BOSS-level】【Strength: Later stage of Foundation Establishment】【Health: /】【Attack: 121】【Defense: 100】【Speed: 106】【Heart Protection: 11】【Critical: 15】【Skills: Corrosive Blood Rain, Self-Healing, Vengeful Ghost Possession, Power of Zhan】 This Zhan was slightly stronger than the Night Cavern Ghost King. If Lin Jichen hadn't reached Foundation Establishment, the Zhan would have posed a significant threat to him.Fiind updated novels on But now, Lin Jichen at Foundation Establishment was a completely different person from when he was at Qi Refining. Especially with the Dark Night Sword, Lin Jichen's strength had broken through 210 points, and his critical hit rate was 40 points. Such damage was unbearable even for a monster at the later stage of Foundation Establishment. Lin Jichen's achievement badge granted him an additional 1% damage against monsters, making this sword strike deal over eleven hundred damage. Previously, against the Night Cavern Ghost King, he could only deal around two hundred damage. Although their defenses were similar, the damage output was nearly five times higher! Moreover, the bleeding effect of the Dark Night Sword was triggered, causing 120 points of damage per second for three seconds. No wonder the Zhan screamed so miserably. Lin Jichen softly lamented, feeling genuine sympathy for Wan'er's fate. He stepped forward and opened the Soul Burial Mound, revealing three Mysterious Grade items! 【Mysterious Grade·Nightmare Cloak】: Defense +25, Evasion +10%, Skill Damage Resistance +5%, comes with skill 【Shadow Shift】. Shadow Shift: Instantly appear behind an enemy within a 20-meter range, leaving a decoy for two seconds. Cooldown: 10 minutes. Requirement: Foundation Establishment Realm players only. ... 【Mysterious Grade Movement Technique·Art of Flying】: Allows flight, up to 100 meters high, flight speed is 200% of base speed. Cooldown: None. Mana consumption: 20 points per second. ... 【Mysterious Grade·Shadow Blade】: Strength +30, Critical +10, comes with life-steal effect. Life-steal: Each attack restores 100 points of health. Requirement: Foundation Establishment Realm dagger players only. Three Mysterious Grade items, a stroke of great luck that even Lin Jichen hadn't expected. If not for his great luck, he would have thought he was burning his lifespan to play the game. Aside from the dagger, the other two Mysterious Grade items were usable, especially the Art of Flying. With the Art of Flying, he could finally fly! In addition to these three items, there were four or five Spirit Grade items, but he didn't care for them and tossed them into his storage space before exiting the Secret Realm. [Congratulations to 'Lin Jichen' for completing the Hell-level Nightmare Secret Realm in 'Tale of Immortal'! Reward: 300 reputation points! Root Bone +1! Wishing all players prosperity in martial arts!] This first-clear reward didn't faze Lin Jichen at all; it was too ordinary. First-clear rewards always granted innate attributes, which were useless to him since all his innate attributes were maxed out, leaving no room for growth. Outside, however, the scene was already bustling. On the Nightmare Secret Realm leaderboard, Lin Jichen's name was prominently displayed at the top, displacing Xie Lingyang, who had been in first place. Xie Lingyang was still stuck at 80% progress, clearly unable to deal with the Zhan. Lin Jichen, however, had already completed the challenge, and it had only taken him five minutes. Excluding the mandatory five-minute dream memory, Lin Jichen had taken just half a minute to deal with the Zhan. This speed made everyone question whether he was really playing the Hell-level Nightmare Secret Realm. Could it be a mix-up? Even the Easy-level wouldn't be this fast! As soon as Lin Jichen emerged, he was surrounded by players, some calling him a god and asking for guidance, some guilds offering terms to recruit him, and some girls asking to hug leg. In the midst of the crowd, Lin Jichen remained calm, giving them a serene smile before his figure soared into the sky and vanished in the blink of an eye. The crowd: "????"
