123: Thunder Spirit Pearl

Qin Shilei picked up the Chain of Defense again.

"Do you want to refresh the entries?"

"Refresh."

Versatile (Blue): You can choose a necklace style every day, ensuring a good mood daily.

Defense Counter (Green): Can reflect thirty percent of received damage.

Mental Defense (Red): Can defend against mental attacks up to Silver Realm One-star.

Qin Shilei chose the Mental Defense entry and then handed it to Zhang Xiaoli.

Zhang Xiaoli happily took it and immediately put on the sky-blue necklace.

Qin Shilei then picked up the milky-white stone that contained the combat skill Floating Light Shadow.

"Do you want to refresh the entries?"

"Refresh."

Fast Recovery (Green): Cooldown reduced to two seconds.

Erratic (Green): When casting Floating Light Shadow, your figure will move erratically left and right towards the destination.

Distance Doubled (Red): The maximum distance of Floating Light Shadow is increased to one hundred meters.

Qin Shilei's gaze moved back and forth between the Fast Recovery and Distance Doubled entries.

Both entries were very useful for the combat skill Floating Light Shadow.

In the end, he still chose the Distance Doubled entry.

This combat skill was also given to An Qian, along with the Substitute Doll and Fire Spirit Sword obtained from opening a chest previously.

An Qian easily learned the combat skill Floating Light Shadow.

As she cast the combat skill, An Qian instantly transformed into a phantom, rushing over a hundred meters in just one second.

"This combat skill demands a lot from my physique; I feel somewhat depleted," An Qian remarked as she returned to her original spot using the combat skill.

"Running a hundred meters in one second indeed puts a heavy burden on your body. Try to control the combat skill and only run fifty meters at a time," Qin Shilei suggested.

"I'll try," An Qian began to try controlling the specific details of the combat skill's execution.

After some attempts, she was able to control the combat skill to be cast at distances between forty and one hundred meters.

The consumption also decreased from one-tenth of her primal qi to one-twentieth.

Once she could freely control the combat skill's advance distance, it meant An Qian had fully mastered the combat skill.

Having learned such a combat skill that could be used for both offense and escape, An Qian's strength greatly improved.

Heart of Spirit Wood, Giant Wood Crash, and Flying Flower Picking Leaves, one item and two ability stones, went to Zhang Xiaoli.

Qin Shilei now had a combat skill, Ghostly Steps, a newly acquired Substitute Doll, a thunder spirit orb, and a purple ultimate skill, Teleportation.

He casually learned Ghostly Steps.

This combat skill had no cooldown; as long as he had primal qi, he could continuously cast it, and it could be cast together with the ability Instant Step.

If continuously cast, Qin Shilei's primal qi could support him for eight minutes, enough for a small battle.

He had refreshed An Qian's Substitute Doll today, but the three entries were all very ordinary, so he didn't fix any.

Looking at the new Substitute Doll in his hand, Qin Shilei's mind stirred, and instantly, three entries—one blue, one green, and one purple—appeared on the Substitute Doll.

Bind (Blue): Once bound, the Substitute Doll remains effective even when placed in a spatial ring.

Transference (Green): Upon taking fatal damage, you can instantly designate a target and transfer the damage received by the Substitute Doll to that target.

Absolute Defense (Purple): When the holder receives fatal damage, an absolute defense shield will form around their body, capable of defending against all attacks from the Golden Realm and below. The shield lasts for five minutes.

Purple, he actually refreshed a purple entry on a red item.

Currently, there probably isn't even a single Silver Realm person on the entire Blue Star, yet Absolute Defense could defend against all attacks from the Golden Realm.

This meant that within five minutes, Qin Shilei's defense was invincible.

Choosing this entry was equivalent to gaining an extra life.

Qin Shilei carefully tucked the Substitute Doll close to him, then picked up the thunder spirit orb.

Depleted thunder spirit orb (Purple): A thunder-attribute spirit pearl nurtured by heaven and earth, containing infinite magical power, now depleted. Holding the thunder spirit orb makes it easier to control thunder elements and grants immunity to thunder element attacks.

Qin Shilei was able to use the thunder spirit orb to cast Devouring Thunder just now because the thunder-attribute elements on this mountaintop were very rich, not because the thunder spirit orb itself contained thunder elements.

He could now use the thunder spirit orb to summon relatively gentle divine thunder to cleanse people, or he could use the thunder spirit orb to cultivate and slowly purify the thunder-attribute primal qi in his body.

"Do you want to refresh the entries?"

"Refresh."

Bind (Green): Once bound, the thunder spirit orb's functions can still be used even when placed in a spatial ring.

Refine (Red): Once refined, the thunder spirit orb can be stored within the body, and its power can slowly recover with the host's strength.

Self-Recovery (Red): The thunder spirit orb can slowly recover by absorbing thunder elements from the air.

Neither of the two red entries showed the recovery speed or time, so Qin Shilei couldn't tell from the literal meaning which entry was better.

"In novels, aren't magic treasures all refined? Then I'll choose refine."

Qin Shilei thought to himself, then made up his mind to choose the Refine entry.

Then, with a thought, the thunder spirit orb whooshed into his dantian.

Qin Shilei's face instantly turned pale, and he directly collapsed to the ground.

An Qian quickly came over anxiously to support Qin Shilei: "What's wrong with you?"

Qin Shilei's face was pale, his aura weak, looking as if he had suffered a severe injury.

After a while, Qin Shilei finally managed to control the thunder spirit orb's suction, making the thunder spirit orb reappear in his palm.

He said with some lingering fear, "I was almost sucked dry by this thunder spirit orb."

Zhang Xiaoli quickly cast several Revival spells on Qin Shilei: "That's so sinister, should we throw it away?"

Qin Shilei shook his head, "I can barely control its suction now, so it's fine."

An Qian patted her chest and said worriedly, "Seeing that spirit pearl suddenly drill into your body, I thought it was some kind of treasure, but it turns out to be a blood-sucking stone. It's really sinister. You should put it in your Qiankun Ring first."

Qin Shilei explained, "This thunder spirit orb doesn't suck blood; it only sucks primal qi and spiritual power. My spiritual power is depleted now, so it's good to put it in the ring for now."

After speaking, he put the thunder spirit orb into the Qiankun Ring, then picked up the ultimate skill Teleportation.

"Do you want to refresh the entries?"

"Refresh."

Consumption Halved (Red): The primal qi and spiritual power consumed by Teleportation are halved.

Distance Doubled (Red): The maximum distance of Teleportation is increased to one hundred meters.

Instinct (Purple): Casting Teleportation will become like the host's instinct. The primal qi and spiritual power consumed are reduced to one-tenth of the original, and the maximum distance is increased to one hundred meters.

Today was truly a lucky day; not only did he get several good items from opening treasure chests, but even the refreshed entries were excellent.

After choosing the Instinct entry, Qin Shilei eagerly learned it.

With a thought, Qin Shilei instantly appeared on the mountainside a hundred meters away.

Then he suddenly disappeared into the distance, reappearing on the mountaintop.
