“BT!”

Li Si's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a joyful expression. Witnessing himself constantly growing stronger stimulated the secretion of dopamine, creating an extreme sense of satisfaction.

“It's time to end this.”

The trigger probability of the Limiter was very low, so Li Si mercilessly drew the Great Wilderness Sun-Shooting Bow, activating the earth wilderness elemental arrows, plundering the air, and shooting them towards the Golden Crow Projection that had accompanied him for so long.

Officer, I'm sorry.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh....”

A pale yellow aura of the earth wilderness permeated the air, and before long, the Golden Crow Projection was completely annihilated.

【 Ding! 】

【 Killed 8 shot Golden Crow Projections, experience increased by 200,000 points. Killing at 24 levels higher, experience additionally increased by 400,000 points. 】

In an instant, 600,000 experience points entered the character panel.

Current Experience: 770,000 / 100.

The requirements for upgrading Ghostly Swift Steps have been met.

“Upgrade!”

Li Si decisively clicked the upgrade button.

Consumed 6 purple skill stones, 89 remaining.

Consumed 600,000 experience points, 170,000 remaining.

【 Ding! 】

【 Congratulations, your skill -- Ghostly Swift Steps has been upgraded to Lv7. 】

As expected, after Ghostly Swift Steps was upgraded, the movement speed bonus increased by 2%, with the current bonus being 24%.

The movement speed bonus at Lv10 will be 30%.

“Keep up the good work.”

After facing the nine Golden Crow Projections, Li Si understood the importance of movement speed; it could truly save his life at critical moments.

Most importantly, it was beneficial for the Limiter.

As long as his movement speed was fast enough, he could maintain his health and continue to farm the Limiter.

“Boom!”

A majestic ancient phantom emerged from the stone wall of the Sun Cave.

“.....An illusory figure.”

This scene left Li Si dumbfounded, because the appearance of the ancient phantom was exactly the same as the ancient mighty figure in the murals, the mighty figure who shot down the Golden Crows!!

“Adventurer of later generations, congratulations on passing my test. Now you have two paths to choose from: first, accept my legacy and become a Great Wilderness Archer. Second, accept the blessing of the Great Wilderness and gain a talent.” The ancient mighty figure's eyes sparkled, like two golden suns, making all living beings in the world dare not look directly at them.

Great Wilderness Archer.

....Talent.

Both rewards were excellent, and Li Si wanted both, so he was faced with a choice.

Is a profession better?

Or is a talent better?

This was a question difficult to conclude.

Especially for Li Si.

Missing this opportunity might mean never being able to obtain a profession again. But a talent was also good, because talents existed permanently, their effects stacked infinitely, and they would always accompany the player.

【 Ding! 】

【 Please choose between the profession -- Great Wilderness Archer and a talent as soon as possible. 】

Difficult...

Too difficult.

This was a tough choice.

Li Si's mouth opened and then closed again; several times when he was about to give an answer, he was tempted by the reward he was about to give up.

In the end, he took a deep breath and went for it, saying, “Ancient existence, can I choose both rewards simultaneously?”

“Hmm?”

The ancient phantom hovered in the air, stunned for a second, seemingly shocked by Li Si's question.

After pondering for a moment, the ancient phantom finally nodded, then shook its head and said, “All cause and effect have an exchange. You can take both rewards simultaneously. But as a price, you will lose all your equipment.”

“Deal!!”

Li Si decisively agreed to the ancient phantom's proposal.

It's just all my equipment; if I lose it, I lose it. He agreed outwardly with a broad and cheerful mind, but inwardly, his heart was bleeding. My Great Wilderness Sun-Shooting Bow. I'm sorry, please forgive me.

【 Ding! 】

【 Unfortunately, you lost the weapon -- Windy Sword (Blue). 】

【 Unfortunately, you lost the armor -- Windy Robe (Blue). 】

【 Unfortunately, you lost the armor -- Windy Pants (Blue). 】

【 Unfortunately, you lost the armor -- Windy Boots (Blue). 】

【 Unfortunately, you lost the accessory -- Swift Ring (Green). 】

【 Unfortunately, you lost the accessory -- Backpack Expansion (Green). 】

Six system prompts popped up instantly.

Li Si's entire body was empty of equipment. Huh? Six pieces? Didn't he have seven pieces of equipment on him?

“Holy crap!”

Quickly browsing the system prompts, Li Si's mouth curved into a crazy smile. There was no Great Wilderness Sun-Shooting Bow in the system prompts, meaning the Great Wilderness Sun-Shooting Bow didn't disappear?

He quickly opened his backpack.

Haha....

It was indeed still there.

Awesome!

Li Si was overjoyed, secretly guessing that perhaps because the Great Wilderness Sun-Shooting Bow was equipment from within the Sun Cave, it didn't disappear.

However, no matter what, this was good news.

“Adventurer of later generations, your courage and your strength amaze me. Accept my legacy, accept the gift of the Great Wilderness.” The ancient phantom raised its hand and waved.

In an instant, a yellowish-brown light wave swept through, forming a bow and arrow symbol in mid-air, flickering on and off for a long time, and finally, the bow and arrow merged into one and entered Li Si's body.

【 Ding! 】

【 Congratulations, you have obtained the profession -- Great Wilderness Archer. 】

【 Congratulations, you have obtained the talent -- Great Wilderness Divine Power. 】

“Boom!”

A heavy surge of energy flowed, and Li Si felt his entire body filled with power, in waves and currents, continuously flowing within him.

The ancient phantom showed a satisfied expression upon seeing this.

“Adventurer of later generations, a divine catastrophe is about to descend. I hope you take good care of yourself and strive to survive.”

“Divine catastrophe?” Li Si wanted to ask what the divine catastrophe was, but the ancient phantom had already vanished into thin air, and he ultimately received no response.

Divine catastrophe.

A disaster caused by gods? Just like the nine Golden Crows described in the murals of the Sun Cave. To some extent, didn't they, with their terrifying golden flames, count as gods? And their escaping terrifying high temperatures corresponded to an overwhelming disaster.

“Gods....is that it?”

Li Si muttered to himself, a sense of resistance rising towards the word 'gods'. Those who benefit me are gods; those who harm me are devils. Since they are devils, they should obediently die.

At this moment, he developed his own understanding of the worldview of the All Heavens Game.

“Exit Sun Cave.”

Li Si silently chanted in his mind.

“Swish!”

Light flickered, space vibrated, and his figure disappeared from within the Sun Cave, returning to the side of the lake.

“Whoosh la la....”

A gigantic python emerged from the lake.

It fiercely coiled towards Li Si.

“What the heck?!”

Boss showing up? Li Si was overjoyed; this was already the second time.

【 Ding! 】

【 Heaven Rewards Diligence, fierce beasts are emerging, the lucky person will surely be favored by the heavens. 】

【 Luck permanently +2. 】

Oh~.

Luck value is 7 now.

Comfortable.

Li Si cast Flash, appearing 20 meters away, dodging the python's pounce.

The lake water churned.

Splashing his clothes, after losing the Windy series equipment, Li Si was left with only a beginner's white robe. Putting aside the Great Wilderness Sun-Shooting Bow in his hand, at this moment, he had the demeanor of an elegant scholar.

【 Lake Python 】 (Blue Boss)

Level: 20

There was no need to continue looking at the attribute list after this, it was just a Level 20 blue boss. It could no longer be considered an opponent by Li Si.

What if it attacked?

Li Si was busy with more important matters, checking his talents and profession.

So he opened his talent interface.
