The player's body contains a special factor that perfectly matches the talent, reaching the maximum level of talent.
You have obtained the ssssss-level talent [Chaos Apex].
Lin Feng was stunned.
Did he read that correctly?
That's six S's?
SSS-level wasn't the end?
Or had he broken the game's limit?
However, considering the essence of this game, he could understand it.
Perhaps breaking the limit was the very reason he had returned.
If that was the case, what reason did he have not to change his fate and defy the heavens?
He opened his eyes, and the old beggar had vanished.
Only a tattered oil-paper umbrella remained on the ground.
Lin Feng's expression turned excited as he looked at the quest rewards.
[Talent: Chaos Apex]
Level: ssssss
Effects:
[Cultivation Amplification]: The cultivation you gain from killing monsters cannot level up your character. However, it can be used to strengthen and enhance equipment, items, special items, spells, and divine abilities (this talent cannot be amplified).
[Origin Upgrade]: Due to the talent's effect, your method of increasing character strength has been modified to consuming Dao Origin. The amount depends on your character's level and strength.
[Ability Overlimit]: Attribute point increases within each level will have no upper limit.
[Extra Harvest]: When killing Boss-level creatures, you can plunder corresponding attribute points and treasures as additional loot based on their level and grade (Bosses lower than your level will yield significantly reduced benefits, and within five realms below yours, the benefits will be reduced to zero. Conversely, benefits will significantly increase).
This talent directly came with four special abilities.
After reading them all, Lin Feng couldn't help but exclaim how monstrous it was.
Just looking at the Cultivation Amplification.
Although the cultivation gained from killing monsters couldn't be used for leveling up, the ability to strengthen and enhance equipment completely compensated for the original deficiency.
This meant that even trash equipment in Lin Feng's hands could become top-tier equipment.
Top-tier equipment would become divine-grade equipment!
And there were extra attribute points and treasures from killing Bosses.
Lin Feng's gains from killing monsters would be far superior to others.
The most crucial part was that the increase in attribute points had no upper limit!
Lin Feng, having come from his previous life, naturally knew that while this game was a leveling system,
Players started at level 0.
From level 1 to level 100.
Each level-up would grant corresponding attribute points.
Completing special quests and getting first kills on Bosses would also yield extra attribute points.
However, the attribute points obtainable within every 10 levels were limited.
This prevented players from constantly doing quests and killing Bosses to accumulate attribute points.
Even the strong had a limit.
But for Lin Feng, his improvement would be unlimited!
Combined with the Extra Harvest feature, the attribute points for his character would likely be countless times more than other players.
His overall strength would also be countless times greater.
Perhaps only then would he have a chance to face the terrifying powerhouses of his past life, that world-destroying Great Golden Immortal.
Since the quest was complete and the talent obtained.
Then.
The path to becoming stronger would begin.
As Lin Feng quietly left the quest location,
Donghuang Sword was attracted by the smell of roasted chicken from "Flavorful Feast" and excitedly walked in.
And in the sky above, the old beggar from earlier was full of joy, muttering to himself.
Stepping on several clouds, he vanished in an instant.
While walking towards the outskirts of the city, Lin Feng took the opportunity to check his status panel.
Character: Yang Jian Qing Ming
Level: 0 (Requires: 1 Dao Origin to reach next level)
Talent: Chaos Apex
Skills: None
Attributes: Strength 1, Constitution 1, Endurance 1, Agility 1, Spiritual Power 1
Damage: 2
Health: 50
Mana: 50
Defense: 2
Critical Rate: 0.5%
Critical Damage: 150%
Luck: 1
Wealth: 10 Copper Coins
Dao Origin required for this level: 1 tael of silver
Equipment: None
Combat Power: 5
Lin Feng's face grew darker the more he looked.
He had spent his fortune completing such an awesome quest, only to be rewarded with 10 copper coins.
That old guy was truly stingy!
When he saw the final combat power value, he was speechless.
Was this the legendary "trash with five combat power"?
With grand ambitions to defy the heavens, was he just a clown?
However, it wasn't surprising that his combat power was so dismal.
After all, to complete the quest, he had pawned the beginner's wooden sword and novice cloth armor given by the system for roast duck.
If it weren't for the system's appearance protection, he would probably be naked.
If it were any other player, they would likely despair.
Even with the strongest talent, how could they start with nothing?
For Lin Feng, this was incredibly simple.
He had countless strange and rewarding rare quests in his mind.
Near an inconspicuous stall at the city gate.
Lin Feng boasted extensively, not only receiving a rare quest but also getting a skill book in advance for free.
[Rare Quest: Collect Wolf Hides]
[Quest Description: The hides from the wolves outside the village can be used to craft powerful armor. If you can collect more than 10 hides, I can craft a Wolf Warrior Armor for you.]
[Quest Deadline: One day]
[Quest Reward: Wolf Warrior Armor (Random Quality), Spell - Summon Yellow Turban Warrior (Pre-paid)]
For ordinary players, this was almost an impossible task at this stage.
Because the wolves outside the village were level 6.
Within a day, reaching a level where one could fight wolves was too difficult.
Even if high-level players from major guilds took on this quest, they could fight the wolves with the strength of multiple people.
The Wolf Warrior Armor, obtained through hard work, would still depend on luck.
What if they randomly got a trash quality?
The time and effort invested would be completely unworthwhile.
Moreover, summoning skills had always been considered useless.
This skill, being prepaid, was bound directly to the player and could not be sold.
Regardless of its strength, it could only be used by the player.
In summary,
This quest, to others, seemed time-consuming and labor-intensive, with little reward in the end.
It was completely useless.
But for Lin Feng, it was entirely different.
[Summon - Yellow Turban Warrior]
Yang Jian Qing Ming's Exclusive Spell
Level: Low Tier
Description: Consume 50 mana points to summon a Yellow Turban Warrior to fight for you until you log out or the Yellow Turban Warrior dies.
Spell Cooldown: 3 minutes.
Exclusive Trait: Yellow Turban Warrior can fuse with Boss-level creatures, with a chance to gain permanent attribute bonuses.
This was just an ordinary low-tier spell, requiring all of Lin Feng's mana.
If it died accidentally, he would have to wait 3 minutes and consume mana again to summon it.
For others,
In the early stages of the game, money was hard to come by, and they wouldn't even have enough to buy health recovery potions, let alone mana recovery potions to constantly prepare to summon such a creature?
It was completely not worth it.
But for Lin Feng now, this was his only combat power.
Furthermore, he didn't believe this summoned creature would be weak.
He found a secluded spot and used the skill, observing the summoned creature's attributes.
Yellow Turban Warrior
Level: 1
Damage: 5
Health: 100
Mana: 10
Defense: 3
Skill: Immovable as a Mountain
[Immovable as a Mountain]: Consume 10 mana points to create a shield that doubles defense, lasting for 10 seconds.
Combat Power: 10
Lin Feng was quite satisfied.
Its damage, health, and defense were all stronger than his own.
Its combat power was directly double his.
It seemed he would have to rely on it for now!
Ah Huang, let's fight!
Under Lin Feng's command, the Yellow Turban Warrior's heavy and massive body began to move.
