Chapter 54: Quite the Generous Reward! Truly Befitting Sakura-chan's Luck!

[You let out a fart that directly overwhelmed the person attempting to ambush you. On their body, you found a treasure map. Following the map, you obtained—Space Stone ×1! Using it will increase your backpack space by 1 cubic meter. Would you like to use it?]

[You encountered a skeleton in the wilderness. While burying it, you discovered a crude mining map underground. Following the map, you found ore secretly stored by a miner and obtained—Taibai Refined Gold ×1!]

[Outside an auction, you watched cultivators battle. After the fight, you luckily found a treasure map nearby. Following it, you acquired a box containing the Thunder Seal Jade Book. After studying it, you gained the skill—Thunder Seal Script!]

[While purchasing a talisman brush, the shopkeeper, seeing you as a novice, deliberately sold you an old brush. However, inside the brush handle, you found a map. Following it, you discovered the brush owner’s collection and obtained—Intermediate Talisman Master’s Handbook ×1! Using it will unlock the upper limit of novice talisman masters and advance you to an intermediate talisman master. Would you like to use it?]

[You were too poor and could only scavenge at the sect’s second-hand stall, where you bought a treasure map. Following it, you found—Mid-level Spiritual Stone ×1 near the sect!]

Wow! The ten consecutive draws really worked!

Ye Hui stared at the dazzling system rewards, unable to help but sigh.

“Looks like I can level up myself again! Sakura’s fortune truly is amazing...”

Places where luck checks can’t be passed.

Going with Sakura might unlock new maps.

Places where secret treasures can’t spawn.

Bringing Sakura along might lead to treasures.

Plus this ten-draw.

Several guaranteed good items in a row!

Ye Hui became more certain of his suspicion.

Sakura truly can help others temporarily boost their luck!

“Let me see what great things the Moe Queen has brought me...”

Ye Hui rubbed his hands eagerly...

He first saw the very first reward!

Swordsmanship Technique!

This was a skill Ye Hui had long hoped for!

Last time in a serendipitous map, he drew the “Azure Edge” flying sword.

He thought he could finally ride the sword and fly.

But afterward, he never encountered the corresponding skill.

He had even boasted that he’d soon be able to ride the flying sword.

So much time has passed since that bold claim.

Neither Zhishi nor Sakura had seen Ye Hui ride a sword.

Without the skill, the flying sword was just a sword to swing around!

“Moreover, the flying sword itself is too small. If used as a melee weapon, it has to enlarge, and once enlarged, it needs constant spiritual energy to maintain...”

Ye Hui had experimented with the flying sword before.

After all, he had studied Chinese martial arts.

He was not unfamiliar with sword techniques.

But wielding such a flying sword in combat without the proper cultivation method required constant spiritual energy output.

When outputting spiritual energy, the sword would become very heavy.

Very inconvenient.

The materials used to forge flying swords often included refined gold and similar substances.

They were the essence of metal spirit materials, heavier than ordinary metal of the same volume.

The swordsmanship Ye Hui learned could perfectly complement weapons he forged himself.

What Ye Hui truly lacked was the skill to ride the flying sword, not a handy weapon.

“Swordsmanship Technique arrives just in time!”

With this flying sword, he could finally fulfill the boasts he made before Zhishi and Sakura!

By then, he could probably gain another wave of emotional points!

From now on, he’d be a sword hero who could ride the sword and fly, woot woot~!

Ye Hui then looked at the second item.

The forging profession was basically a proficiency-based vocation.

Different levels only concerned proficiency.

Whether one could forge dangerous items and the success rate depended on proficiency.

It had nothing to do with cultivation or realm.

An ordinary disciple,

as long as they could endure the intense heat of the forge and had skilled techniques, could forge higher-level equipment.

This Forging Master’s Handbook was a type of advancement item for the forging profession, nothing special to say.

Different items, same function.

Advancing to an intermediate profession had no difference except unlocking more forging knowledge.

More knowledge meant more levels in a way.

In the game, becoming an intermediate forging master meant directly gaining the knowledge and ability to use it.

But in reality, although you gain related knowledge, you still have to practice and gain proficiency to truly forge.

Recreating the corresponding experience in the real world.

That’s the real way to use skills.

From now on, with materials available, intermediate-level equipment would never be lacking.

This secondary profession could obviously be used for a long time.

Different levels of forging masters only influenced the success rates of forging advanced equipment and the amount of knowledge.

More knowledge and experience meant more, faster, better, and stronger creations.

Less knowledge but high proficiency could still forge advanced gear after time and effort.

But the equipment styles might be limited to one or two types they were familiar with.

Regardless, even a low-level forging master could touch advanced gear.

Ye Hui shook his head.

“After all, this is the real world!”

The dumb system couldn’t stop low-level cultivators from wearing immortal or divine artifacts.

In games, equipment often has level restrictions.

But reality doesn’t have such limits.

Forging your own equipment wouldn’t have powerful seals preventing usage.

If your level isn’t high enough, you can’t wear it.

“However, two advancement items appeared at once!”

Ye Hui looked at the second advancement item.

“Intermediate Talisman Master’s Handbook”

This was the advancement item for novice talisman masters.

The benefit of talismans to power was self-evident.

When levels and skills were low, talismans were rare special tools that could be widely applied in various scenes.

“I feel talismans are like temporary skills; when you don’t have the actual skills, you can use talismans to release one-time effects...”

At the same level, their power was weaker than skills.

But talismans had more variety!

However, talisman making and forging were different.

Forging masters could craft items above their level.

Talisman masters couldn’t draw high-level talismans.

“After all, forging can borrow external heat, but drawing talismans requires personally controlling the flow of spiritual power...”

One mistake and the talisman is ruined.

Also, talisman masters needed a certain realm.

Without sufficient realm, spiritual power output when drawing talismans would be insufficient, leading to failure.

“I wonder if advancing to intermediate talisman master will allow me to create talismans as powerful as Li Xiaolang’s...”

Ye Hui thought of Li Xiaolang’s performance in the animation.

Animations always need dramatic flair.

Reality is different.

So Ye Hui wasn’t sure if those elemental talismans Li Xiaolang used in the show would be that powerful in reality.
