Everyone's a Hunter? I'm a Hunter x Hunter!

"Spiral Arrow!"

"Boom!"

The bowstring trembled, and a dark, eerie light pierced through the air.

In the blink of an eye, it pierced the head of a two-meter-tall white-haired ape wielding a bone club, pinning it and its entire body to the large tree behind it.

"Clatter"

The bone club hit the ground, and blood gushed from the white-haired ape's forehead. The luster of life in its eyes gradually faded.

[Defeat the level 40 Bone White Ape, gained 3011 experience. Level cap reached. Please complete job advancement as soon as possible.]

Soon, a dark red crystal the size of a marble slowly condensed on the forehead of the Savage White Ape, as if it were a flower of blood growing from its wound.

The Nine Netherworld Purgatory Tiger, carrying Lü Xiu, had arrived in front of the Savage Bone White Ape.

Reaching out, he plucked the dark red crystal, and its attributes unfolded before Lü Xiu's eyes.

Crystallization of Original Sin

Quality: Excellent

Effect: Grants the power of Original Sin upon use. (Guaranteed to grant the power of the Original Sin already activated, with a chance to grant the power of the Original Sin not yet activated.)

Description: A highly concentrated power of original sin. All of its power comes with a corresponding price. Use with caution.

With a little force, Lü Xiu crushed the crystal into powder, which turned into specks of light and merged into his body.

[Hint: Greed +2, Lust +2, Pride +1]

Lu Xiu's mind flashed back to the platinum treasure chest he had once seen, Ye Qianxue's beautiful legs, and scenes that only appeared in TV dramas: himself sitting high on the throne, with a group of ministers kneeling before him.

The original sin crystal he just crushed was not the first original sin crystal he had absorbed.

From the grasslands he had come from, Lü Xiu hunted his way into the primeval forest. He killed more than thirty phantom beasts, and a crystal of original sin condensed on the corpse of each beast.

The more powerful the phantom beast, the larger the original sin crystal it condenses, and the more original sin power it absorbs and gains.

Currently, Lü Xiu has absorbed over 150 points of Original Sin Power.

【贪婪（58）色慾（47）傲慢（18）暴食（14）懒惰（10）暴怒（5）嫉妒（1）】

Because Lü Xiu possesses the professions of Treasure Hunter and Phantom Beast Hunter, he has essentially activated the original sin power of greed and lust. Therefore, each original sin crystal he absorbs will consistently provide him with the original sin power of greed and lust.

As for the other five original sin powers, Lü Xiu guessed there were two possibilities: either they were given randomly, or they were related to the phantom beasts he had killed.

In addition to providing himself with a value of Original Sin Power that can be seen in the data panel, every time he absorbs an Original Sin Crystal and the corresponding Original Sin Power value increases, a scene corresponding to that Original Sin will appear before Lu Xiu's eyes.

These scenes and images can enhance Lü Xiu's desire for them.

For example, right now, the rising original sin of greed makes Lü Xiu want to acquire more things.

If only we could find a treasure chest right now.

Unfortunately, Lu Xiu, who was using the "Treasure Chest Perception" skill while it was on cooldown, did not find a single treasure chest in the Professional Advancement Dungeon, not even the most ordinary wooden one. He didn't know if the treasure chests would not spawn in the Professional Advancement Dungeon or if he just hadn't encountered any.

The only way to defend against it is by using materials produced by mythical beasts, since mythical beast materials can also be sold for money.

He tossed the savage bone ape on the ground into his spatial backpack.

Lu Xiu's greed subsided slightly.

Suddenly, a notification popped up in front of me.

[Hint: The effect 2 of the item "Greedy Treasure Chest" has been activated, generating 1 Beginner Treasure Map]

It's that time of month again when treasure chests generate treasure maps.

I must find it immediately, right now!

Greed was stirred up like a flame.

But this is still within the range that Lü Xiu can suppress.

Lu Xiu began to understand what the description of the Crystallized Original Sin meant by "all powers have been marked with their corresponding costs".

To complete the first advancement and gain greater power, one must bear more of the desires brought about by original sin.

It's more convenient in the game, where there are only numerical values.

Lu Xiu opened his spatial backpack to check.

"Unfortunately, it's only a beginner level."

Beginner Treasure Map (Advanced Career Dungeon)

Effect: Automatically generates a guide when the treasure is within 1,000 meters.

Description: A map marking the locations of buried treasures. Follow the markings on the treasure map to find the treasures.

"Right here?" Lu Xiu rubbed his chin.

He pondered the rules governing the location of the treasure map given by the Greedy Chest.

The first time was in the Breeze Forest; the second time was in the South Sky Harbor; the third time was in the Giant Mushroom Rainforest; and the fourth time, which is now, is in the Profession Advancement Secret Realm.

Aside from the treasure map in Nantian Port, the treasure maps given by the Greedy Chest tend to be located near the player.

Carefully examine the specific locations marked on the treasure map.

The northwest corner of the career advancement secret realm is very far away, at least a hundred kilometers from where I am.

"I can make that my destination and fight my way there," Lu Xiu decided, his greed gradually subsiding.

Before entering the Profession Advancement Secret Realm, he identified a support-type pet called "Hundred Flower Fairy" based on the "Profession Advancement Secret Realm Pet Compendium" he found in the library, and prepared to go to their habitat to see if there were any king-level individuals.

Heading to the location marked on the treasure map, we happened to pass by the habitat of the Flower Fairy, achieving two goals with one action.

As for the rising original sin of lust...

A masterful use of the "Sage Time" technique resulted in perfect suppression!

He flipped over and mounted the Nine Netherworld Tiger again, preparing to head northwest.

Looking up at the sky, the night was pitch black.

Lu Xiu remembered that he came in at 10 a.m.

However, it should be 3 PM now, a fact confirmed by the treasure map hinted at by the "Greedy Treasure Chest." The Greedy Treasure Chest gives out one treasure map per month, always precisely on time. And I also become a hunter at 3 PM.

"It seems that this place is in a different time zone than Nantian Port," Lu Xiu guessed.

Just as Lü Xiu was about to have the Nine Netherworld Hell Tiger transform into a shadow garment and put it on his body, a bright starlight in the distance caught his attention.

The starlight wasn't hanging high in the sky, but rather on a towering tree in the distant hills, as if each star had fallen onto the tree.

"What is that?" Lu Xiu squinted.

With a light snap of his fingers, he caused the Nine Netherworld Tiger to turn into mist, condensing into a black cloak that fell upon his body. His Dark Vision immediately activated, and the surrounding dim forest became as clear as day.

Lu Xiu then activated his "Flowing Cloud Eyes" and looked toward the place radiating starlight.

Thousands of miles away, on a towering tree, a falcon whose body was condensed from pure starlight stood atop the tree, spreading its wings and freely absorbing the starlight power poured down from the sky.

Above its head are its name and rank.
