I can enjoy the Mythic card pool all to myself

"Boom!"

Thunder rumbled across the sky, like a deep, hoarse roar from the heavens, causing the rain to intensify in the mountains and forests.

The group struggled forward in the pouring rain, their raincoats offering little protection from the downpour.

In no time, everyone was soaked to the bone, their clothes clinging tightly to their bodies, chilled to the bone.

The mountain road was already rugged, and after being washed by the torrential rain, it became even more muddy and impassable.

Every now and then, someone would twist their ankle and fall heavily into the mud and water, getting up covered in mud and looking utterly disheveled.

"Open your eyes wider, everyone!"

"Be careful not to fall into the ravine and become food for the bears in the mountains!"

Ma Dao's chest was still throbbing, but he still forced himself to lead the way, not daring to back down even a step.

He was the backbone of this escort team.

If he collapses first, the exhausted and disheartened镖师 (bodyguards/escorts) behind him will surely scatter instantly, and the entire镖 (escort mission) will be doomed.

"Father, please rest in the back for a moment, let me go ahead and clear the way..."

Ma Duxiu frowned, immediately seeing through his father's pretense of strength, and quickly stepped forward, wanting to take over the heavy responsibility.

But her situation was no better than Ma Dao's.

Despite her strong personality, she was still just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

Already suffering from shoulder and back injuries, he was now soaked in the rain for a long time.

At this moment, she was already at her limit. Her wet hair clung to her cheeks and neck, and she looked disheveled. Even her steps were unsteady.

Therefore, after taking only a few steps, Ma Duxiu's foot suddenly slipped, and there was a bottomless ravine beside him.

She turned pale with fright and instinctively closed her eyes.

He was about to fall into the ravine...

A hand suddenly grabbed her wrist.

"Miss Ma, are you alright?"

She hurriedly opened her eyes.

Fang Chang was already standing beside her, and with just one hand, he steadily pulled her back.

"No, it's nothing, thank you very much, Young Master Fang."

Ma Duxiu felt the warmth from the other person's palm, and her tone, which she had always considered herself a man, became inexplicably flustered.

Seeing that she had steadied herself, Fang Chang withdrew his hand and followed at the end of the line with unhurried steps.

Seeing that Fang Chang only said one sentence and then stopped talking, Ma Duxiu felt a strange sense of loss.

At this moment, Fang Chang had no time to think about such trivial matters.

He has more pressing matters to attend to right now.

With a slight shift in his mind, he opened the permanent gacha pool's repository, finding himself worlds apart from the limited-time gacha pool.

He currently has 50 merit points left, which he can use to draw cards.

The permanent card pool is the Library of Scriptures, and the drawing rules are the same as those for the limited card pool.

A single draw requires 10 merit points, while a ten-draw requires 100 merit points.

Unlike limited-time gacha pools, the probability of drawing good items from the Scripture Pavilion is extremely low.

Furthermore, there wasn't even the slightest guarantee mechanism, making it even more of a rip-off than the game he played in his previous life, which was jokingly called "Dog Card."

If you rashly spend 10 merit points, you are very likely to end up with nothing.

However, this library is not entirely without merit.

The pool offers a wide variety of rewards, including diverse martial arts techniques and all sorts of skill manuals.

The Iron Shirt technique that Fang Chang is currently cultivating was originally extracted from this Scripture Pavilion.

Unfortunately, his bones and muscles are now completely crippled, and Iron Shirt is a martial art that strengthens the muscles, bones, skin, and flesh.

As a result, this martial art will likely be stuck at the Great Perfection level, with no possibility of further improvement.

"You can pull from the permanent gacha banner anytime, but the limited-time banner, 'So Close Yet So Far,' only lasts for 60 days."

Therefore, the merit points I have should be prioritized for drawing from the limited-time gacha pool.

As for whether or not to save up good deeds for a ten-pull...

After a moment's hesitation, Fang Chang decisively abandoned the idea.

He is currently being hunted down in the dead of night and could be in danger at any moment.

Instead of accumulating merits and hoping for a guaranteed drop, it's more practical to pull a miracle and immediately boost your strength.

Thinking of this, Fang Chang immediately spent 10 merit points and poured them into the limited card pool, "Close to Each Other".

A flash of light appeared before my eyes, and the card-drawing animation ended in an instant.

A white card slowly emerged, with clearly visible gold lettering on its surface:

[Precision +1]

Almost at the same instant, Fang Chang felt a slight tremor in his chest, and a warm current spread throughout his body.

The fatigue from traveling through the rain overnight vanished in an instant.

A glint of light flashed in Fang Chang's eyes; he was not disappointed that he hadn't drawn any martial arts techniques.

On the contrary, in his view, directly improving attributes is no worse than drawing any martial arts technique.

It is important to understand that these three attributes—essence, energy, and spirit—are the foundation of a martial artist's existence.

After all, the essence of martial arts is to continuously strengthen one's essence, energy, and spirit, and to develop the three great treasures of the human body.

This process is respectively called refining essence, refining qi, and refining spirit.

For martial artists below the sixth rank, the essence of Yi Jin, Yi Gu, and Yi Sui is all about cultivating essence.

Fang Chang's bones and muscles were damaged, making it impossible to refine his essence through hammering and bone training.

The essence he obtains from the gacha pool is currently his only way to improve himself.

Unfortunately, the probability of directly drawing an attribute card is extremely low. Don't be fooled by the fact that it's just a white card; the drop rate is actually not much higher than that of a green card.

He was lucky this time, getting off to a good start.

If he could draw attributes this easily on ordinary days, he wouldn't need to repair his bones and muscles at all.

Just by allocating attribute points, you can easily reach the eighth rank!

"Very good, continue..."

Seeing his luck at its peak, Fang Chang felt a surge of excitement and instantly became overwhelmed.

He gambled away all of his remaining 40 merit points in one go!

A halo of light flickered before my eyes, and four cards appeared one by one, followed by a vast expanse of white.

Fang Chang felt a chill in his heart, thinking he was about to lose everything, but just then...

A flash of green light suddenly appeared!

Fang Chang's spirits lifted instantly—the shipment was on!

【Grasshopper (Green): A superior ninth-rank light-foot skill, allowing for rapid running, leaping, and maneuvering on flat ground, with particular strength in endurance.】

[Wall-climbing skill (white): A low-level light-foot skill, allowing one to scale walls and rooftops.]

[Leaping Step (White): A low-level light-foot technique, used to conserve energy during long journeys.]

【Cloud-Ascending Black Boots (White): When worn, increases the efficiency of practicing light footwork by 10%.】

"Grasshopper? That's good stuff!"

Fang Chang's eyes lit up.

Although the name of this light-body skill is common, its effect is exactly what I wanted.

This is a genuine, top-tier ninth-grade lightness skill. If one can truly master it, one can at least run faster than a horse!

Without making a sound, he changed into his cloud-patterned black boots when no one was looking.

He then used the three martial arts cards: Grasshopper, Wall Climber, and Leaping Step.

In an instant!

A flood of insights into movement techniques rushed into my mind, and I simultaneously mastered all three light-body techniques!

The Wall Climbing Skill (white), Leaping Step (white), and Grass-Flying Skill (green) are highly compatible.

[Should the style primarily focus on grass-flying (green) techniques, while also incorporating wall-climbing and leaping footwork?]

(Covering this up will significantly improve your Grasshopper proficiency.)

Fang raised an eyebrow and confirmed without hesitation.

The next moment, Grasshopper, who had only just entered the beginner level, suddenly leaped into the minor mastery level after integrating the two lightness skills!

Fang Chang, who was completely clueless about lightness skills just a moment ago, is now like a seasoned veteran who has been immersed in this art for many years.

His steps, which were originally uneven, gradually became lighter as he took each step slowly.

Fang Chang walked on the muddy mountain road without getting a speck of mud on his feet, as if he were walking on flat ground.

Every step brings a change, every step is full of vigor!
