All players: Become a Dharma King, with unlimited skill stats.

Congratulations! You have reached level 11!

[Triggered basic class passive: All attributes +90, Fire affinity +10; Triggered mage entry-level passive: Spirit +6!]

It truly lives up to its reputation as a secret realm!

Without exception, all the monsters here are elites, which easily brings An Bai a large amount of experience points.

Even according to the adjusted rules, Zhao Zhiqing and Si Ying, who only enjoyed 10% of the shared experience, both leveled up.

Of course, this is mainly because the two of them were already at a low level, so it was naturally easier for them to level up.

An Bai used fireballs to clear a path, burning large areas of the surrounding land to a scorched black color, until no more elite skeletons emerged from within, before he stopped.

"You guys go and gather the materials first, then we'll continue on our way."

An Bai yawned and said.

Releasing fireballs continuously throughout the day can be quite mentally taxing.

The two people Zhao Ruitian brought at least enjoyed the 10% experience he shared from the past. They didn't have to fight monsters themselves, but at least they could collect materials.

Moreover, the materials dropped by elite monsters are extremely valuable!

"Alright, Brother An, you take a rest. The boss is probably just ahead, and we'll need your help then!"

Zhao Ruitian laughed heartily.

He's in an incredibly good mood right now.

I never expected that just by bringing three bottles of basic red potions to strike up a conversation, I would actually get to know a big shot!

Feeling the still intense heat in the air, he still couldn't believe that this was the power of a skill that a level 10 mage could unleash.

As for Zhao Zhiqing and Si Ying, who were so shocked that their jaws dropped to the ground and their mouths couldn't close, they hadn't even realized that they had leveled up.

"Brother An... Brother An Bai, are you... really in the same year as us?"

"Did you really switch jobs the day before yesterday, and not last year or the year before and then get stuck at a certain level?"

As Zhao Zhiqin bent down to pick up a piece of skull bone that glowed with purple light—it was sold by weight, costing 600 yuan per kilogram—she asked An Bai with shining eyes, her curiosity and surprise evident.

"Hmm...Do I look that old?"

An Bai tilted his head and looked at the bearded "old" guy.

We're clearly not the same age as each other!

"Ahem, that's not what I meant. I meant... you're way stronger than my brother. He always brags to me about how he's been out in the world for over two years and how amazing he is, but he still got a little injured last time he was running a level 10 Nightmare dungeon!"

"Brother An Bai, you're the real brother!" Zhao Zhiqing said, giving An Bai a thumbs up.

It seems that both siblings are quite outgoing and sociable.

"Speaking of which, Brother An Bai, you're so strong, your aptitude must be over nine points, right? Are you one of those perfect aptitudes, one in ten thousand?!"

When this was mentioned, An Bai shrugged silently without saying a word.

3.1 points.

Nobody would believe me if I told them...

Taking advantage of this time, An Bai also opened his own entry system and extracted new entries again.

[Using 1 chance, currently drawing a gold-tier affix....]

[Draw successful! Congratulations on obtaining the Gold Legendary Skill Affix: High Probability]

Oh open!

This is the kind of entry I'm looking for?

An Bai was somewhat surprised.

Is it something that can increase the probability? For example, does using this keyword to kill a monster with a low probability of dropping a treasure chest increase the chance of getting one?

"If that's the case..."

"I'll definitely give it to Fireball, since it's the only attack skill we have."

An Bai didn't think for long before making a decision.

Then, manipulate the high-probability affixes onto the Fireball skill—

[Entries have been merged!]

[Basic Fireball]: (Omitted). High probability: Attacking targets with this skill will increase the chance of triggering some low-probability effects, and targets killed by Fireball will have a significantly increased chance of dropping items and hidden rewards after death.

Wow, you actually guessed right!

An Bai grinned.

And it's not just about increasing the drop rate when you kill an enemy.

Furthermore, the probability of certain effects being triggered can also be increased.

So, your Fireball spell also has a burning effect, but the trigger probability is extremely low.

With this entry, the probability of triggering it increases significantly.

Hmm.... However, this burning effect is a bit weak. Anyway, after being instantly killed by a fireball explosion, it doesn't matter whether it triggers or not.

"Brother An, I've packed all the spoils and put them in my spatial ring. Besides the materials, there are four pieces of equipment. Shall we distribute them now?" The other three quickly completed these simple tasks as well.

"Let's clear the game first," An Bai said nonchalantly.

Anyway, the people are all here, and we know them well enough to know what kind of guild or school they belong to, so there's no need to worry about them running away with the money.

As for equipment, although the equipment won't be immediately taken when you kill the enemy, there will be a notification that it dropped.

He saw that those pieces of equipment were all level 15 limited items, and now that they were distributed, he couldn't use them.

Following a narrow, secluded forest path, the four arrived at a deserted cemetery.

In the very center of the cemetery is a tomb that has been excavated, inside which lies an enormous coffin.

"Another coffin... The last dungeon was also a coffin," An Bai murmured.

Sure enough, the next moment, the situation was similar to that of the Black Iron Giant King.

The moment the four stepped into the cemetery, the coffin suddenly exploded, startling the timid Si Ying. She quickly grabbed the giant shield and hid behind Zhao Zhiqing, her body trembling slightly.

wow-

A spirit radiating a bluish-green light floated up and hovered in mid-air.

When it appeared, even the air seemed to get colder.

[Curse Demon King lv15]

[Rank: Purple Boss]

[Attributes: HP 100000, Attack 0, Defense 0.]

[Skill: Life Chain Spell, Summon]

"Zero attack, zero defense?"

"And with only 100,000 HP, that's completely mismatched for a purple-tier boss!"

Zhao Ruitian asked in surprise.

He also used his appraisal skill to see the demon king's attributes.

His extensive knowledge and experience immediately alerted him to something amiss.

as predicted.

Before An Bai could make a move, the Spell King suddenly transformed into a white mist, enveloping the entire cemetery.

The four immediately sounded alarms, and An Bai subconsciously released a protective shield to surround himself.

However, no attack was detected; instead, they were simply enveloped in white mist.

It takes about ten seconds.

The white fog disappeared.

However, what reappeared before everyone was not just one sorcerer king, but a full ten!

"This is... Oh no! Everyone, check your status bar!"

Hearing Zhao Ruitian say this, An Bai didn't rush to attack, but instead looked at his status information.

[Special Status]: You have been bound by the Life Chain of the Spell King, creating a clone of the Spell King. If you attack the clone, you will bear the damage yourself.
