My career has infinite upgrades.

The next day, Gu Qing lay in bed and couldn't get up.

Greed!

I originally wanted to try out the effect of shared perception, but I didn't expect to see such a scene after opening it.

This instantly infuriated Gu Qing, making it impossible for him to calm down and continue drawing the talisman. He had to calm down first.

It took all night to clear up.

Never mind, I'll take a day off.

It wasn't that Gu Qing was being lazy; rather, he was first increasing the simplified experience of the Phantom Contractors.

The advancement condition for the Phantom Contractor is to contract an S-rank Abyss Monster without using any items. The experience is simplified to the same level as before: contacting and feeding Abyss creatures.

The only difference is that the experience bar has increased to 10!

Therefore, Gu Qing decided not to get out of bed today and to focus all her efforts on improving the simplified experience of the Phantom Contractor.

After resting for a day, Gu Qingcai went hunting to level up.

For the next few days, Gu Qing went out hunting, cooked to improve his chef's experience, and then made runes to improve his rune apprentice experience.

Interspersed throughout are Cecilia and Melisandre maintaining stability, while also improving the simplified experience of the Phantom Contractors.

Everything else is fine, but it's a bit hard on the back.

A few days later, Gu Qing's level had also increased to level 9, with only one level left to reach level 10.

There are only five days left until the college entrance examination, enough time to advance to level 10.

That evening, Gu Qing sent Cecilia and Melissant back to the contract space, and he got a good night's rest, preparing to break through to level ten the next day.

The next morning, Gu Qing had already arrived deep in the Bone Forest.

Gu Qing has already killed quite a few of the monsters here.

Gu Qing checked the simplified experience of the Bone Sorcerer.

[3800/5000]

The Bone Sorcerer's simplified experience gain is still quite fast, but he won't be able to complete the advancement before the college entrance examination.

Gu Qing withdrew his gaze and looked at Melissand beside him, saying, "Today, try to find monsters with high rank and high combat level."

With his level about to reach level ten and the college entrance examination fast approaching, Gu Qing was no longer focused on leveling up quickly, but rather on honing his combat skills.

Melissand activated her sound wave perception to the fullest extent, moving to expand the range.

Soon, Melissand found a target.

"Master, there's a huge creature 800 meters to our left." Melisandre lowered her voice, her purple eyes flashing. "It has a very high life magnetic field, and there are no other monsters around. It should be a lord-level monster."

Gu Qing flicked his spear: "Let's go, let's go take a look."

Gu Qing quickly made his way forward and soon arrived at his destination.

The miasma here has largely disappeared, and a large expanse of muddy ground lies ahead, with no plants or animals around.

In the center of that mud, a monster five meters tall was rooted.

It has the shape of a large tree, but no bark. The trunk is entirely made up of thick arm and leg bones interwoven together, and the crown is composed of densely packed skulls.

A level 10 gold-tier lord monster, the Bone Treant.

It combines offense and defense, making it very difficult to deal with.

"Cecilia, Melissant, you two stay here and keep watch. Don't help me unless it's a matter of life and death."

In preparation for the college entrance examination, Gu Qing wanted to see if he could defeat the monster on his own.

Cecilia pursed her lips and retreated with Melissant.

Gu Qing raised his hand, and his spiritual power surged out, instantly lighting up a summoning array on the ground in front of him.

Ten undead guards emerged from the crowd, immediately enveloping the skeletal tree demon in front of them.

"kill!"

At Gu Qing's command, the ten undead guards instantly launched a charge.

The bone tree demon emitted a piercing screeching sound, its trunk twisted violently, and thick vines made of bones lashed out, accompanied by a shrill whistling sound that tore through the air.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The two undead guards at the front were thrown away, and half of their bones shattered on the spot.

Although they could still manage to get up with difficulty, the two undead guards were no longer nearly as strong as they used to be.

With a slight thought, Gu Qing used his mental energy once again.

"The Land of the Dead!"

The spiritual energy transformed into a vast expanse of death energy, rapidly surging forward and instantly enveloping the muddy ground where the bone tree demon was located.

The deathly aura climbed up the roots of the bone tree demon, causing it to freeze for a moment.

The next moment, Gu Qing conjured two white bone spears and shot them directly at the white bone tree demon.

Sparks flew everywhere, and the two bone spears only left a scar on the bone tree demon before shattering and disappearing.

"It's really tough." Gu Qing frowned slightly, and asked Melissand to investigate its weaknesses.

"Master, the black skull in the very center of its canopy is the central organ, and it's the most vulnerable part."

Without hesitation, Gu Qing charged forward with his steel gun in hand.

With a flick of his wrist, he thrust out his spear swiftly, aiming directly at the lower body of the bone tree demon.

Clumps of bone powder exploded, and the white bone tree demon's body tilted slightly.

But the next moment, the burst wound healed rapidly.

Gu Qing quickly retreated, ordering the remaining eight undead guards to hold off the guy.

Eight undead guards charged forward and launched a siege.

Gu Qing stepped onto a protruding rock and leaped into the air, landing directly above the White Bone Tree Demon.

He drew his steel spear to its fullest extent, channeling all his power into its tip.

His body moved with the gun, becoming one with it, like a shooting star falling upside down.

The spear tip pierced precisely into the eye socket of the black skull in the tree canopy.

Violence permeates everything!

Gu Qing gripped the gun barrel tightly, his hand suddenly twisting.

"boom!"

The black skull shattered instantly.

The white bone tree demon let out a mournful scream, then its body stiffened and it crashed into the muddy pool behind it.

A white light rose from Gu Qing's body, and a pleasant notification sound rang in his ears.

[Defeat the level 10 boss monster, the Bone Treant, and gain 100 experience.]

[Ding! Level up to 10.]

[Bone Warlock's Simplified Experience +15.]

Level 10!

A smile appeared on Gu Qing's face, his bones cracked, and his blood and qi surged like a river.

Level 10 is a watershed moment for job changers.

After advancing to the next level, it's a completely different world.

Gu Qing exhaled a breath of stale air, a smile appearing on his face.

Then, Gu Qing turned his gaze to Cecilia and Melissant.

The two of them have reached level 5.

For every level Sacilia gains, each of her four basic attributes increases by 20 points; for every level Melisandre gains, each of her four basic attributes increases by 15 points.

This is the terror of SS-rank and S-rank abyssal creatures.

The attribute boosts from leveling up are incredibly powerful.

Gu Qing's 15% feedback also caused his attributes to experience a small surge.

Just as Gu Qing was preparing to continue hunting and increase his experience with the Bone Sorcerer's Simplified Technique, his phone suddenly vibrated.

Gu Qing took out her phone and saw that it was a message issued by the school.
