Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

Since she can't go to the source of pollution, it seems that the only thing she can do now is level up.

Even if she reaches level 80, she probably won't see much improvement and will likely be stuck at level 80.

If you ask Xu Jiawei why she's so sure, it's her intuition that tells her so. Moreover, Mo Feng has also reminded her that level 80 is a hurdle. Even with her talent, it would take her several years to get past it, and some people are even stuck at that threshold their whole lives.

So I told her not to rush and to just let things take their course.

She had to put her leveling up on hold.

Little Pink and Red Earthworm have just broken through, and even if they level up to 80, they will probably remain stuck like Xu Jiawei. So, the only ones with a chance to improve significantly are Rainbow and Little Gray.

However, Rainbow needs the Fountain of Life to break through, and Rainbow is a mushroom. Xu Jiawei had asked the Mushroom God about it, but the Mushroom God just arrogantly said, "Don't even think about it. Even I need the Fountain of Life. Do you think you and your pet can escape?"

It can be said that Rainbow and herself are already doomed; they can only break through with the Fountain of Life. Rainbow's path is blocked, and now only Little Grey is left.

Seeing Little Grey's expectant bird face, Xu Jiawei immediately gave the order, "Next, we will do our best to help Little Grey break through."

At this moment, the clan chief also emerged from the rainbow's belly and said, "With its current abilities, breaking through level 70 is not a problem, but to break through level 80, it must go to the temple of the God of Emotions."

Xu Jiawei nodded. It seemed that the next tasks were: 1. Help Little Grey Grey break through to level 70; 2. Solve the source of pollution; 3. Find the temple of the God of Emotions.

After planning for the future, the main task now is to find a place with many mutated creatures so that Little Grey can level up.

The ocean has the most mutated creatures, and Little Grey can go into the sea, so we need to find places with a lot of mutated creatures on the islands.

Xu Jiawei's feelings were somewhat complicated. Even Little Grey was about to surpass the rainbow, so why did the mushroom need the Fountain of Life?

But no matter how much she sighed, it couldn't change the fact that she had to level up now. After telling Si Yunming her thoughts, Si Yunming was very supportive.

They need to take some time to reflect now, as their stats are lagging behind the current version. There's nothing they can do but improve their strength.

She thought to herself, "If only I knew the requirements for breaking through to level 80, I could prepare in advance." She wondered if the system knew, so Xu Jiawei chose to ask directly, "System, do you know the requirements for my level 80 breakthrough?"

The system is quite accommodating now, and might just take pity on her and tell her. Besides, it's just a matter of a word for her, so even if the system doesn't tell her, it's not a loss to ask.

The system remained silent for a while, seemingly calculating whether to tell her. In the end, its appreciation for talent defeated the absolutely fair program. However, it seemed to have forgotten that its scales had already tipped, and it naturally paid more attention to these high-powered players.

It was already unfair, and now this issue has simply been brought to the forefront.

[Ding! All players have reached level 80 and need to refine their Divine Essence.]

Xu Jiawei was startled and asked, "This isn't right. Grace and Teacher Mofeng have both broken through level 80. Have they also condensed their divine sparks?"

[Ding, players and natives are naturally different. Natives do not need to condense a divine spark, but players do.]

The system's rules are quite cruel, because level 80 is a hurdle that officially sets you apart from ordinary people, resulting in a qualitative leap in both lifespan and abilities.

Players who cannot condense a divine spark and have no chance of becoming gods do not need to live long. Players need system assistance to achieve a 100% success rate in breaking through to godhood. These players who have no chance of becoming gods are just wasting the system's energy.

Perhaps this condition will disappear after everything is over and the system leaves, but for now, ruthlessness is necessary.

Even Si Yunming heard it and frowned. The system made the sound public, so Si Yunming could naturally hear it, but right now his godhood fragments hadn't reached 10 pieces, and condensing a godhood was a long way off for him.

However, Xu Jiawei, who was further away, was not so solemn at this moment, because the difficulty of her condensing her divine spark had increased, and she could not even use the auxiliary medicine. No matter how anxious she was, there was no point in rushing it. In any case, the God of Fate had already given her guidance, and now she could just quietly wait for that opportunity.

As for the potion issue, Si Yunming will need the help of potions to break through level 80. Moreover, he has embarked on a different path from the Dark God, so he cannot condense the Dark God's divine spark and must construct it himself.

His difficulty level was actually not much lower than Xu Jiawei's, but Xu Jiawei didn't know it.

Over the next few days, she tested the Heart of Destiny and discovered one of its functions: predicting good or bad fortune. When she made a certain decision, the Heart of Destiny would automatically predict whether it would bring good or bad fortune to her.

Xu Jiawei also discovered that each color represents a different meaning. For example, white light means that the matter will be successful, blue light means that the matter may succeed or fail, and the shade of the color represents the probability of success. The lighter the color, the higher the probability of success.

Black and red indicate that the matter is very dangerous and has almost no chance of success. Red with a touch of white indicates that although the matter is dangerous, there is a chance of success.

Therefore, Xu Jiawei avoided many disasters through this prediction, and she will not go to those particularly dangerous places for the time being.

Although the Heart of Destiny is very useful, Xu Jiawei will not rely on it. Even if there is a red warning with a hint of white, Xu Jiawei will not give up, because her strength is obtained through risk, and the current situation does not allow her to choose a safe way to upgrade.

Faced with these dangerous places, Xu Jiawei would try her best to solve them, sometimes succeeding and sometimes failing, but putting everything else aside, her ability to escape was second to none.

If you can't beat her, can't you just run away?

Moreover, danger is often accompanied by opportunity. Every time she escapes death, Xu Jiawei gains a lot. Her cooperation with her pet and Si Yunming is becoming more and more tacit. Basically, with just a slight expression and a glance, the two of them know what the other wants to do.

Little Grey's level is steadily increasing, and its current speed is twice as fast as before. However, its other attributes are not improving much.

Little Grey is a player who is seriously unbalanced in his specialties, but right now his attack power is enough to finish off enemies, and nothing else matters.

With the group grinding away day and night, Little Grey finally broke through the level 50 mark and was about to reach level 60.

When Little Grey broke through level 50, a little incident occurred.

When it broke through, it almost drained the clan leader dry. The clan leader was unconscious for three whole days before waking up. When it woke up, it seemed even older, and even its feathers had lost their luster.

Little Grey was worried for several days, but the clan leader kept saying that he was fine, so Little Grey couldn't keep asking.
