89: God's instant kill

When Liu Yang saw everything around him, he was immediately stunned.

This place was completely different from the upper levels.

The crystal-paved ground was sparkling and translucent.

The walls, built from white jade, were pristine and flawless.

Books flew everywhere in the sky.

Countless exclusive professional skills and general skills converged into an ocean of skills, flowing past Liu Yang's eyes.

After carefully examining every inch of the place, Liu Yang did not find any trace of a boss.

Just as he was wondering.

An exclusive Guardian skill floated past his eyes.

Liu Yang could no longer resist and leaped up, reaching for the skill book.

Swish!

He reached out, but grabbed nothing.

"Holy crap, so it was an illusion! It looked just like the real thing, even having descriptions."

"This ability to fake things is unparalleled."

However.

Just then.

A sudden change occurred!!!

After Liu Yang's grab missed, the ocean of skills suddenly stopped moving.

Then, in an instant.

The ocean of skills flowed backward like a reversed Heavenly River, converging towards one spot.

Before long, billions of books condensed into a person.

It was an old man.

White robe, white hair, white beard.

One hand was behind his back, and the other held a thick book.

【Target out of detection range.】

Liu Yang activated his eyesight to look, and a familiar line of text reappeared before his eyes.

Immediately, Liu Yang's bladder relaxed. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he might have peed himself right then and there.

Large beads of sweat dripped down from his forehead.

He still remembered that the first time this text appeared, the target was the Giant Octopus.

He didn't know how strong the Giant Octopus specifically was, only that he couldn't even cut it if it just stood there.

If he hadn't used a trick, he might not have been able to kill it now.

Now that such an opponent reappeared, how could he remain calm?

"What should I do, what should I do?"

"With no way to the heavens and no door to the earth, where should I escape?"

"That's right, I have the Fengyun Bounty Order! I can use it to escape."

Thinking of this, Liu Yang was overjoyed and immediately took out the Fengyun Bounty Order.

"Fengyun Bounty Order, target Shi Yufei, use."

【You are in a special area. The Fengyun Bounty Order cannot be used.】

Clatter!

Liu Yang's hand loosened, and the token dropped to the ground.

"It's over! Why am I so damn unlucky!"

Liu Yang's face turned ashen.

After only a moment, Liu Yang recovered.

"At this point, there's no reason to sit and wait for death."

"If I don't try, how will I know the result?"

"What if it's just a show-off!"

Thinking of this, Liu Yang bent down and picked up the Fengyun Bounty Order.

He then took out his wind-thunder spiritual sword and charged straight towards the White-Robed Old Man.

However.

As he had just run a few steps, he saw the White-Robed Old Man smile slightly and say:

"You've come!"

Liu Yang came to an abrupt stop, his heart shaking violently, inexplicably shocked.

"The boss is talking to me?"

Liu Yang was astonished, then a surge of ecstasy, like surviving a disaster, welled up.

"You know me? Are you waiting for me? Who are you? Do you know the secret of this survival game?"

This was a rare opportunity, and Liu Yang quickly voiced the questions in his heart.

However, the old man did not answer any of Liu Yang's questions, but continued speaking to himself:

"Since you've come, let me lend you a hand!"

"After this, it's up to you."

"I hope you succeed."

When he finished speaking, his figure flickered and he appeared in front of Liu Yang.

Then, before Liu Yang could react, he made an astonishing move.

After he appeared in front of Liu Yang, he immediately grabbed Liu Yang's sword-holding hand, controlling the long sword to cut off his own head with one strike.

【You cut off the head of the mysterious White-Robed Old Man with one sword. The mysterious White-Robed Old Man is dead.】

【Congratulations on killing the mysterious White-Robed Old Man! You have gained skill book page x1000, god's book page x1, and psionic energy x1000.】

Liu Yang: "???????"

"What's going on? What exactly is this situation?"

Liu Yang was completely bewildered, unable to understand the current situation.

However, the matter was not over, and the prompt continued to sound.

【Second Kill skill upgrade conditions met. Do you want to upgrade?】

"Upgrade."

【Second Kill skill upgraded successfully.】

【Second Kill Lv40: Unique skill, can 100% Second Kill creatures of the same level as the skill level. For every level higher, the success rate decreases by 20%. Each use consumes a certain amount of energy. The switch can be freely controlled. To upgrade to the next level, skill book page x410 is required.】

【Detected that you possess god's book page x1, and Second Kill skill has reached Lv40, fulfilling the skill evolution conditions. Do you wish to evolve?】

"Huh?"

"Huh!?"

Liu Yang was shocked. Without time to think, he quickly responded:

"Yes, I choose to evolve."

【god's book page -1. Second Kill skill evolved successfully.】

【God's Instant Kill skill upgrade conditions met. Do you want to upgrade?】

The reappearance of the prompt completely deprived Liu Yang of his ability to think.

But he knew that no matter what it was, just keep going up.

So he said: "Upgrade."

【God's Instant Kill skill upgraded successfully.】

【Skill】: God's Instant Kill (Unique Skill) Lv41.

【Mode 1】: Can 100% Second Kill creatures of the same level as the skill level. For every level higher, the success rate decreases by 20%. (Can be freely controlled to activate)

【Consumption】: 10 energy points.

【Mode 2】: Based on the target creature's level, when the skill successfully triggers, within the God's Instant Kill skill level diameter (meters) range, all creatures with levels less than or equal to the target creature's level will all trigger Second Kill. (Can be freely controlled to activate)

【Consumption】: 100 energy points.

【Upgrade Condition】: skill book page x420.

(PS: Specific explanation for Mode 2: For example, if the skill level is 50, when Liu Yang uses the Second Kill skill to kill a monster that is level 30, then with that killed monster as the center point, within a 50-meter diameter circle, all monsters that are level 30 and below will be instantly killed.)

Seeing the new changes to the Second Kill skill, Liu Yang just wanted to say...

"Woc, my cǎo chù mǔ"

At this moment, he had no other thoughts.

He just wanted to get out quickly and test its power.

Just then, as if heaven knew his thoughts, a voice sounded.

【The Vanishing Scholar's Tower exploration is complete. The explorer will be teleported out early. Please prepare yourself.】

【5, 4, 3, 2, 1, teleporting out.】

Hearing this, Liu Yang immediately became unhappy and shouted loudly:

"Hey, hey, hey, there's still plenty of time! Please spawn another wave of monsters!!!"

However, no one paid attention to him. In an instant, he was back on the branch where he had entered.

"Alright, I guess I was a bit greedy."

"With explosions of hundreds and hundreds like this, if I farmed a few more times, that would be too abnormal."

"More importantly, that god's book page..."

"I wonder if the Second Kill skill can evolve again in the future."

He looked at the sky; the sun was bright.

Recalling the time displayed in the upper right corner when he left.

His entry into the Scholar's Tower and subsequent exit didn't even take a full morning.

Remembering that someone was still worried about him, Liu Yang opened the chat box with Shi Yufei.

"I'm back."

Then, the other party immediately replied:

"Mm, it's good you're back. Then I'll go hunt monsters now!"

"Okay, be careful."
