[Killed a Level 25 Enhanced Elite Red Tree Demon Warrior, gaining 35000 shared energy (additional +20000)]

[Killed a Level 25 Enhanced Elite Red Tree Demon Warrior, gaining 34000 shared energy (additional +20000)]

[Killed a Level 25 Enhanced Elite Red Tree Demon Warrior...]

...

Blade light flashed repeatedly!

Ye Ze teamed up with Jiang Ziqing and the other two to eliminate the last three Red Tree Demon Warriors.

"The five of us are truly amazing," Xu Siya said, making a perfect summary of the operation.

Jiang Ziqing glanced at Ye Ze, her gaze somewhat complex.

Through this battle, she gained a completely new understanding of Ye Ze's strength.

That astonishing blade light,

and that terrifying Thunderfire Explosion he used, made her heart tremble.

Jiang Ziqing hesitated several times, wanting to speak but stopping, and finally couldn't hold back asking, "Did you awaken Thunder Element and fire element talents?"

Ye Ze nodded and asked in return, "Are you very surprised? I had already awakened three talents before awakening my profession."

"The fire element talent was one of them."

"Awakened three talents before awakening your profession!?"

Mu Bai's mouth formed an 'O' shape, and he couldn't help but interject, "Could it be that you awakened a legendary profession?"

"No."

"What is it then?"

"Chef."

"......"

...

Rustle rustle rustle!!!

Footsteps rustled softly on the fallen leaves.

The group continued searching for traces of the Red Tree Demon Warriors in the red forest, aiming to kill more tree demons in the shortest time possible.

After the previous battle, everyone's confidence greatly increased, and they became bolder in their search for the tree demons.

Before long, they discovered another group of Red Tree Demon Warriors.

Their number was slightly less than the previous group, totaling 7. They were active ahead, not disguised as red trees, completely blocking the path.

"Should we proceed with the old plan?" Mu Bai asked, looking at Ye Ze for his opinion.

The others also looked at Ye Ze.

Unknowingly, everyone had begun to regard Ye Ze as their backbone.

This was something perhaps even they themselves hadn't realized.

"Do any of you have slowing or crowd control skills?" Ye Ze asked after a moment of thought.

"My Wind Arrow can knock back targets."

Mu Bai scratched his head, "But when used on large creatures like the Red Tree Demon Warriors, the effect might be average."

"I have a Tier 2 Slowing Aura."

Xu Siya chimed in, "Can that help?"

If it's just one Tier 2 Slowing Aura...

Ye Ze fell into thought,

He glanced at his energy bar,

Energy: 425600/195000

The Red Tree Demon Warriors gave a lot of energy; after killing just over a dozen, his energy had already surged to over 400,000.

"Wait a moment," Ye Ze said.

His gaze fell upon his Ice Element talent,

He began to enhance it!

[Consumed 200 energy, Ice Element Affinity Enhancement +1!]

[Consumed 400 energy, Ice Element Affinity Enhancement +2!]

[Consumed 800 energy, Ice Element Affinity Enhancement +3!]

[Consumed 1600 energy, Ice Element Affinity Enhancement +4!]

[Ice Element Affinity Enhancement +4, gained an additional enhancement entry!]

[1: [Talent Evolution]: Ice Element Affinity (E) -> Ice Manipulation (D). (Purple)]

[2: ...]

[3: ...]

He decisively chose 3,

[Your talent: Ice Element Affinity (E) automatically evolved into Ice Manipulation (D)]

[You learned the skill: Ice Ring Spell (Tier 2)]

[Ice Ring Spell: Generates a powerful cold current that causes a slowing effect on targets.]

"Ice Ring Spell!"

Ye Ze's lips curved slightly,

This is exactly what he needed.

He continued enhancing!

[Consumed 300 energy, Ice Manipulation Enhancement +1!]

[Consumed 600 energy, Ice Manipulation Enhancement +2!]

[Consumed 1200 energy, Ice Manipulation Enhancement +3!]

[Consumed 2400 energy, Ice Manipulation Enhancement +4!]

[1: ... (White)]

[2: Ice skill effects (such as freezing, slowing, chilling... etc.) increased by 15% (Blue)]

[3: ... (White)]

With a blue option available, he chose option 2,

He continued enhancing!

[Consumed 6000 energy, Ice Manipulation Enhancement +5!]

[Consumed 18000 energy, Ice Manipulation Enhancement +6!]

[Consumed 54000 energy, Ice Manipulation Enhancement +7!]

[Consumed 162000 energy, Ice Manipulation Enhancement +8!]

[Ice Manipulation Enhancement +8, gained two additional enhancement entries!]

[1: ...]

[2: Ice skill effects +15% (Blue)]

[3: Ice skill effects +30% (Purple)]

[4: ...]

The [Talent Evolution] entry didn't appear,

nor did any talent effect entries.

Following the idea of enhancing a single path all the way,

Ye Ze chose options 2 and 3.

[Ice skill effects increased to 60%, skill: Ice Ring Spell (Tier 1) automatically evolved to Tier 2 skill.]

He then began enhancing the Ice Ring Spell skill,

consuming 4500 energy, enhancing Ice Ring Spell to +4, gaining an additional enhancement entry

—[Slowing effect +15% (Blue)]

He continued enhancing!

consuming 240000 energy, enhancing Ice Ring Spell to +8, gaining a [Skill Advancement] entry, and an additional enhancement entry

—[[Cold Current Acceleration]: Cold current diffusion speed +100% (Blue)]

[Your skill: [Ice Ring Spell] (Tier 2) automatically advanced to [Ice Ring Spell] (Tier 3), skill effect significantly increased.]

He continued enhancing [Ice Ring Spell] (Tier 3) to +8, gaining the following three additional enhancement entries,

—[[Frost Freeze]: Coldness doubled, has a chance to cause a freezing effect on targets (Purple)]

—[In snowy environments, cold current effect is doubled. (Blue)]

—[[Frost Freeze +100%] (Purple)]

[Ice Ring Spell] +8

Effect 4: [Frost Freeze +100%]: 100% chance to freeze targets with Ice Resistance below 200, 80% chance to freeze targets with Ice Resistance above 200 and below 300, 60% chance...

...

Another Tier 3 skill!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

A gentle breeze blew,

stirring up scarlet red leaves.

"Did you hear that?" Ye Ze's gaze turned towards the others.

Mu Bai looked at the slightly swaying branches, "Mm, the wind has picked up."

"Wrong."

Ye Ze shook his head,

"It's the echo of enhancement!"

He gently stomped his foot on the ground.

Tier 3 [Ice Ring Spell] +8!

Boom!!!

A powerful cold current rapidly spread outwards in a circle centered around him.

Crack!! Crack!! Crack!!

This cold current quickly spread to the feet of the Red Tree Demon Warriors,

In the blink of an eye, a thick layer of frost buried and froze their roots...
