Reluctantly putting the Panlong Sword back into his backpack, Ling Mo Xie took out the second item, which was glowing faintly green. It turned out to be a book! Is this a skill? Ling Mo Xie thought as he looked at the title of the book, "Blade Storm." Could it be the move used by the Giant Spirit Skeleton before it died? A glimmer of joy flashed in Ling Mo Xie's eyes as he directly examined the attributes of the skill in his hand.
Blade Storm: Green Skill, Learning Level: 35, Skill Effect: Targets within the attack range will receive 450 attack power for one minute! Cooldown time: 1 hour.
An attack power of 450 can deal 4500 damage to an object with no defense, no wonder his Health Points had dropped by thousands before; even small health potions couldn't keep up.
The green skill, although only light green, was equivalent to a high-level mystical spell. He was just lacking a powerful attack spell! Ling Mo Xie clapped his hands happily and learned Blade Storm.
Then, his gaze shifted to the third item in his backpack. Although this item wasn't green, it shimmered with a rich orange light. Even though its rank was lower, it must be something good since it dropped from a boss! He didn't want to miss any opportunity to enhance his strength as he continued on.
Quickly taking out the item, he discovered it was a round jar! A jar? Ling Mo Xie's mouth twitched; what was going on?
Before he could think much more, as soon as he held the jar in his hand, a sound echoed in his mind: "Ding! Congratulations! You have accepted an orange side quest!"
Side Quest (1): Lament of the Explorer: Please take the ashes of the explorer who died in Azure Light Dungeon and bury them outside!
Quest Reward: Title "A Good Person," Nourishing Soul Pill Recipe, access to the Refining Room.
Quest Failure Penalty: Forever trapped in Azure Light Dungeon.
Quest Progress: 15
What does one-fifth progress mean? Does it mean I need to find five such urns? Ling Mo Xie frowned in contemplation.
Sigh! Forget it! Since I've already accepted it, I might as well find a way to complete it! After all, there's no turning back now! Ling Mo Xie thought of giving up, especially since there was still a main quest outside that was suffocating him, and now here came a side quest!
Putting the Urn into his backpack, Ling Mo Xie recovered some stamina and summoned Big White, cautiously heading toward the other end of the passage. After walking for a while, he encountered a corner. As soon as he turned it, he saw a bright light not far away. Ling Mo Xie hurriedly walked towards the light with Big White.
Soon, they arrived in front of the light; this was the exit of the passage. However, to Ling Mo Xie's surprise, looking out from the light revealed a vast grassland! Stepping out of the passage and looking back, he saw a rather tall rock; the passage was hidden behind it.
Ling Mo Xie looked around; what was going on?
There were no small monsters from the Copy around; in fact, there was nothing at all—just a grassland with two rabbits appearing and disappearing in the distance. It had clearly been similar to when he played the Game in the Copy before—fighting monsters and killing bosses—so why had this last layer turned out like this? Was it because he had taken that quest?
Just as Ling Mo Xie was at a loss, a cheerful voice came from afar: "Hey! Little brother! Which tribe are you from? Why are you standing here all alone? Ah!" A person rode in from behind the rock on the grassland. He hadn't noticed Big White by Ling Mo Xie's feet before, but now that he got closer and saw Big White, he exclaimed and quickly backed away on his horse, trembling as he pointed at Ling Mo Xie and said, "You... you are a Demon Beast?"
Demon Beasts can transform after reaching a certain level of cultivation, so it's no wonder he mistook Ling Mo Xie, who had Big White with him, for one.
"I'm not a Demon Beast. What is this place?" Ling Mo Xie looked at the young rider. The boy was dressed in animal skins and carried a bow and arrows on his back; he didn't look like a cultivator. Remembering that this was within the Copy, could he be one of those legendary NPCs?
"Then... what about this white tiger?" The boy still dared not approach and pointed at Big White.
"Oh, this is my friend whom I've played with since childhood. He won't hurt you; don't be afraid! Look!" Ling Mo Xie said as he looked down at Big White and reached out to tease him. In his mind, he commanded Big White to roll over and perform some playful actions.
Big White was utterly distressed! After all, he belonged to the white tiger clan; although his bloodline was thin, he was still a divine beast. How could he be treated like a dog?
Seeing this scene, the boy cautiously rode closer. When he saw that neither Ling Mo Xie nor Big White posed any threat to him, he finally dismounted and said, "This place is not far from our Azure Wind Tribe. Who are you? Why do you not know where this is but appear here?"
As soon as the boy mentioned Azure Wind Tribe, a voice echoed in Ling Mo Xie's mind: "Ding! Congratulations! You have received a quest prompt! Help Azure Wind Tribe resolve the Demon Threat; you may gain something in return!"
Ling Mo Xie's eyes lit up. Could it really be an NPC? However, the boy in front of him not only looked like an ordinary person, but his movements and expressions were distinctly those of a real human! If he was indeed an NPC created by the System, then the System must possess incredible power.
"What's wrong?" The boy asked, noticing Ling Mo Xie in a daze. He waved his hand in front of Ling Mo Xie.
"Oh, it's nothing! I just can't remember how I got here. I woke up and found myself here, with Big White by my side. Can you take me to your tribe to rest for a while?" Ling Mo Xie snapped back to reality and smiled at the boy.
"Well..." The boy hesitated for a moment, making Ling Mo Xie nervous. Was his friendliness with the boy not enough? Would he be refused for making such a request? If he didn't enter the Azure Wind Tribe, how would he learn about the Demon Threat, let alone resolve it?
Ling Mo Xie was clearly overthinking it. After a brief hesitation, the boy took out a small bottle filled with shimmering green powder and handed it to Ling Mo Xie, saying, "This is Demon Identification Powder. As long as it doesn't turn red when you pour it on yourself, I can take you to the tribe!"
Ling Mo Xie rolled his eyes. Was this NPC being overly cautious? What a hassle! Nevertheless, he accepted the bottle and poured some of the powder on himself, saying, "Alright! Is it good now?"
Seeing that the powder on Ling Mo Xie hadn't changed color, the boy immediately became much more enthusiastic and smiled, saying, "Yes! I apologize for earlier. My name is Agu. What's yours? Let's head back! I should tell you that the grasslands near our Azure Wind Tribe have been quite dangerous lately. I sneaked out to hunt a few rabbits to bring back."
