189: Cast a wide net and catch more fish! (1/3)

The Fallen Plains were boundless and vast.

Its area was extraordinary.

The Endless Corpse Hand had just found a camp when he heard the world announcement echo.

"Hahaha...." He gave a helpless bitter laugh, then said, "So fast! How does it feel like he's playing a different game than us?"

"Haha, during the first Sky Ladder Ranking, his speed was about 200. But now, his speed is at least 2000. I can't even comprehend such astonishing growth," Iced Explosion said, scratching the tip of his nose.

"Haha.... Keep leveling up. After reaching level 100 and becoming a god, perhaps there will be a turning point."

"How do you say? Is there a hidden secret?" Iced Explosion looked at All Heavens Know-It-All.

"Maybe, I'm not sure."

Bai Xiaosheng nodded, then said, "Players can become gods after level 100, but Lawless Madman cannot level up. If he can't find another way to become a god, he might be surpassed."

"So that's how it is, becoming a god at level 100? It's still very far away."

The Endless Corpse Hand's voice was hoarse as he looked at his experience bar.

Level 49 (99.99%).

As the level gradually increased, the experience required for leveling up became absurd. At his current speed, it would take an eternity to reach level 100.

......

Inside the dilapidated Dawn Camp.

Li Si checked the title awarded by the system.

[Undying Banner]: Your banner is forever undying and cannot be destroyed by any existence.

"Haha!"

"The effect of this title is simply invincible."

It truly was an undying banner!

The Life Battle Flag fluttered fiercely, like a bright lamp in the dark night.

"Inject True Spirit into the banner? How can True Spirit be obtained?"

So far, Li Si had only seen two True Spirits: Wang Shidao and Wandering Swordsman.

They both became True Spirits because of the Inferno Demon King at that time.

Their physical bodies were destroyed by the Inferno Demon King, and they became True Spirits. Li Si didn't quite understand why the Legendary Monarch, who died by his hand, couldn't transform into a True Spirit. Could it be that his attack was too high, annihilating the Monarch's soul?

"I'd better ask someone!"

Then, the surrounding scene shifted, and Li Si arrived at Tafeng Canyon, found the Wandering Swordsman, and asked how a Monarch could transform into a True Spirit.

"A True Spirit is a soul. It requires using subtle force to destroy the target's physical body without harming the soul to create a True Spirit. Alternatively, if the target possesses a treasure that protects their soul, they can also become a True Spirit," the Wandering Swordsman explained.

"As expected."

This explanation was not far off from Li Si's guess.

After all, the power of NPCs is cultivated by themselves and can be controlled more perfectly. However, the power of players is given by the game system, making it difficult to control the strength of their attacks.

"How to precisely control the force? Is there a simple method?"

"No."

"You can only diligently study and summarize patterns to achieve precise control," the Wandering Swordsman said, shaking his head.

"Alright then."

Li Si decided to first capture a strange creature to complete the third step of rebuilding the camp.

As for injecting multiple True Spirits, he would wait for another opportunity.

He continued to ask, "How do I capture a Ghost Accomplice?"

"Just use a Spirit Imprisonment Array!"

Spirit Imprisonment Array?

Li Si suddenly remembered that there was a Spirit Imprisonment Array in the War Zone Honor Shop.

[Ding!]

[Consume 8 million War Zone Honor Points.]

[Congratulations on purchasing: Legendary Skill - Earth Vein Spirit Imprisoning Formation.]

Gray mystical light flew out of the shop, landing in his hand and transforming into a skill book.

Li Si directly crushed the skill book.

[Ding!]

[Your current skill bar status: 15 / 16.]

[Earth Vein Spirit Imprisoning Formation] Legendary Max Level: Active skill, draws upon the power of the earth veins to establish an earth dragon array, imprisoning spirits. 100,000 mana cost, no cooldown. The durability of the array is ten times the caster's maximum HP.

Ten times HP maximum durability?

Li Si was overjoyed.

He had over 270 million maximum HP.

This meant the Earth Vein Spirit Imprisoning Formation had 2.7 billion durability!

With this level of durability, even a Mythic-tier being could be trapped for a few seconds.

Moreover, the Earth Vein Spirit Imprisoning Formation had no cooldown.

As long as he had mana, he could cast it infinitely.

Li Si's current 1.9 million mana maximum was enough for many casts.

Just then, Bai Yuèyue suddenly sent a message notification.

"Could it be information about black shadow sand?"

Thinking this, Li Si quickly checked the message.

Bai Yuèyue: "I found black shadow sand, but only one unit."

......

Li Si replied with an ellipsis, indicating his speechlessness.

At this point, he finally understood the extreme difficulty of acquiring black shadow sand.

"Alright, you don't need to worry about the black shadow sand anymore."

Immediately, Li Si transformed, becoming an NPC.

It was time for the Deceptive Arcanist to regain its glory!

Then he split into four, activated the Great Teleportation Technique, and went to four different War Zones.

"Young man from another world, I see you have extraordinary bones. Are you willing to help me?" In Osaka City, a seemingly virtuous NPC said, pulling a passing East Island player.

At the same time, in Ulsan City of the Goryeo War Zone, a kind-faced monk appeared: "Adventurer, you are fated with this humble monk. How about I grant you an opportunity? Complete this humble monk's trial, and you can obtain a peerless legacy."

In Steel City of the Free War Zone, a Swordsman walked with the wind. The Swordsman's figure was ethereal like a dragon, causing many players to exclaim.

"Youngsters, I am Wind Riding Sword Immortal, and I wish to take a final disciple. Those who are fated, come!"

"I am Heavenly Machine Daoist, ...."

"This young man, ...."

"Handsome, want to take a quest?"

Time passed, and Li Si frantically issued quests, all of them item-finding quests. He not only wanted black shadow sand but also star fragments, platinum water, golden silkworm silk, and many other high-level materials.

For a time, within a dozen main cities, related quests were being discussed, and everyone was searching for materials.

"Who has black shadow sand, platinum water? I'll buy it at a high price!"

"xi ba! I need to buy materials, I need to complete the quest!"

"Hehe! The Wind Riding Sword Immortal's legacy belongs to me!"

"No one will snatch the Heavenly Machine Daoist's legacy from me!"

"Whoever snatches, dies!"

......

"Who is willing to trade black shadow sand with me? I'm willing to exchange an ancient divine stone!"

Suddenly, such a sentence entered the ears of the clone.

ancient divine stone?

Li Si's ears immediately perked up.

"Haha! Divine stone is good!"

One second later, he transformed into a blonde, blue-eyed Free player and arrived at Steel City's main city.

ID: Steel King, Level 41.

"Hand of God, I have black shadow sand," Li Si said.

"OK, trade!"

Hand of God immediately sent a trade request to Li Si.

"OK!"

Li Si took out a handful of black sand.

The attribute description was black shadow sand, but in reality, it was just ordinary yellow sand he had casually scooped from the riverbank.

[Ding!]

[Congratulations on trading away: A handful of yellow sand (Trick the heavens and cross the sea state).]

[Congratulations on trading for: An ancient divine stone.]

Haha! It's mine!

Li Si was overjoyed!

Not far away, Hand of God was also overjoyed. He ran in three steps to the 'Wind Riding Sword Immortal' and then said, "Sword Immortal Your Excellency, I found the black shadow sand you wanted!"

"Is what you have in your hand black shadow sand?"

'Wind Riding Sword Immortal' pointed at the black sand, his face displeased, and said, "This is clearly just the most ordinary yellow sand!"

"But this is black shadow sand?!" Hand of God looked down at his palm, confirming he hadn't seen wrong.

The pitch-black sand was like a crystal, its appearance matched, and it looked very high-class. The attribute description also had no problem, confirming it was indeed black shadow sand.

"Look again?"

'Wind Riding Sword Immortal' said coldly.

At this moment, Li Si opportunely deactivated the Trick the heavens and cross the sea state of the yellow sand.

"Buzz~~"

Mottled light flickered, and the black sand turned into yellow sand.

"FUCK! Where's my black shadow sand?! It's gone!"

Hand of God immediately turned around, looking towards where 'Steel King' had been, but suddenly found that the 'Steel King' was nowhere to be seen? He had already vanished.

"How dare you deceive this Sword Immortal? You have courted death!"

'Wind Riding Sword Immortal' raised his hand, and in an instant, a hundred thousand sword qi surged, instantly killing Hand of God.
