There were only three days left, and Happy’s mission became a heavy burden on his shoulders. Not only did he have to push Stormy Shadowless Kick to Grandmaster Realm so it would become his main skill after he reached Blessed Realm, he also did not want to set aside his Flowering Knights’ Song, which was already at Level 96.
Stormy Shadowless Kick had incredible attack speed and could help him bring out all his skills, battle experience, and power from his previous life to its maximum potential.
Flowering Knights’ Song might be slightly lacking in comparison, but its damage was more than twice of Stormy Shadowless Kick. Once it reached Grandmaster Realm, together with Wind Spirit Spin, it could also be used as one of his killing moves when he entered Fox Cave because of its astonishing power in group battles!
Aside from Stormy Shadowless Kick and Flowering Knights’ Song, he also had to level up Wind Spirit Spin.
Besides a large number of fox monsters in Fox Cave, there would also be people from different factions and organizations. The distinction between them would be very clear. Even if they could not distinguish between who belonged to what group, it was still very easy to cause another organization to treat them with hostility. They had to have their defensive measures perfected, and by that, he meant body fortification techniques.
Body fortification techniques were very important in World of Martial Arts! Their realm meant a player’s ability to resist attacks, and it was the way to survive in group battles!
Without any body fortification techniques or with only low level ones, even if a player had divine weapons and ultimate techniques, it was possible that they could die in a crowd.
Body fortification technique and a lightness skill served as the basis to protect one’s life. Only with them could a player bring out the full power of their martial arts and display their strength.
Happy knew this very clearly.
As of then, the Black Sand Invulnerable Body was only at the ninth realm. Even though it was not low, compared to some professional gamers and high-tier body fortification techniques, the difference was like night and day.
He had the high-tier body fortification technique, Golden Bell Cocoon, which was a high-tier martial art that corresponded with many low-tier body fortification techniques. But if he could not master Black Sand Invulnerable Body, the advantage of Golden Bell Cocoon would be pushed back indefinitely, and it was something Happy did not want to see.
Even though his trip to Mount Song had brought him many unexpected surprises and rewards, and his abilities had increased greatly, Happy still had plans to perform a high-intensity training regime over the next couple to be more prepared for the upcoming trip to Fox Cave.
He had to use the shortest amount of time possible to increase the level of his martial arts.
It was of vital importance for him to hold the high-intensity training he always used during the later stages of the game in his previous life.
Happy rode on his purplish-red horse toward Luoyang. He no longer cared about how much attention he would attract by entering the city in such a flashy manner. He only stopped when he reached the commission shop.
Since the time he placed his notice, he had managed to buy four high-tier martial art manuals with the total of one million and eight hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs he had placed in the commission shop. Of course, he did not manage to buy the more popular and trending saber techniques and blade techniques. Instead, he got one bow technique, two spear techniques, and one axe technique.
Happy sent all of the high-tier martial art manuals to Phoenix Dances and asked her to choose someone suitable from Beautiful Robes Faction to practice them. Then, he took the money she paid him and bought a set of gear that provided above average defense.
With eight hundred thousand silver crumbs in hand, the range of items he could buy became quite wide.
Aside from buying Yellow Dragon Archer Gear that was worth three hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs, he also spent one hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs to buy a set of Yellow Dragon Gauntlets and Yellow Dragon Boots.
[Yellow Dragon Archer Gear: Increase 200 defense. Increase Body Movement by 3. Has a chance to reduce 20% of incoming damage.]
[Yellow Dragon Gauntlets: Increase attack speed by 5. Increase Balance Recovery by 1. Increase Body Movement by 2.]
[Yellow Dragon Boots: Increase movement speed by 10%. Increase Dodge Rate by 9. Increase Body Movement by 2.]
The higher a player’s Body Movement was, the faster they were. The higher the Dodge Rate, the more likely it was that the player would avoid being injured.
Originally, Happy did not intend to buy Yellow Dragon Boots, because he had a pair of even better boots—Ghost King Boots. They gave him a higher increase in movement speed and dodge rate.
But when he wore the Yellow Dragon Archer Gear, Yellow Dragon Gauntlets, and Yellow Dragon Boots, the entirely brownish-yellow attire matched quite well. Even though he lost the elegant air of a scholar, he gained a little more of the heroic and bold air of a martial artist. He also looked very spirited.
Ghost King Boots were a little ghastly. The savage pictures on them would clash prominently with Happy’s own temperament, which was why he naturally overlooked them. He even intended to sell them when he had the chance. After all, they were just a middle-grade masterpiece. Compared to the four-echelon supreme grade masterpiece he had used in his previous life, they were nothing.
The entire Yellow Dragon Set could not be considered as the most expensive and outstanding gear, but it was among the better ones. Once Happy changed, he returned to the commission shop and deposited the remaining four hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs to buy high-tier martial art manuals.
A messenger pigeon came flying at him at that moment. It was a message from Pomelo.
[Boss Happy, I saw you. I created a batch of Dew Pills in the past few days. Would you like to take a look?]
Happy’s eyes brightened. This was truly what he would call someone feeding him food the moment he opened his mouth!
He quickly contacted Pomelo and asked him to come to the commission shop.
Pomelo soon arrived outside the door.
Compared to the first time he met the man, Pomelo, who was now dressed in the white robes of an herbalist, looked in high and could even be said to be glowing. His attire no longer made him look pathetic and inconspicuous. When he saw Happy, he immediately smiled and walked over.
“Boss Happy.”
“Hah! Don’t call me that, it’s too embarrassing. By the way, judging by your appearance, did you reach a breakthrough as an herbalist?”
“Nah.” When Pomelo heard his words, he smiled wanly and began to tell Happy his hardships. “I’ve suffered greatly before this, and it’s enough. Now, I’ve finally understood. If I want to make medicine, I have to do so according to the needs of the market. If there’s no market, there won’t be any consumers, and even if I created the medicine, I won’t be able to earn much from it. That’s why I’ve been creating Dew Pills over this period of time. I believe that this item isn’t open to the market yet, but it should be soon.”
‘Smart!’ Happy praised him in his heart.
Stopping and waiting for a while was indeed a smart choice.
There were quite a lot of people in his previous life who had focused on creating Dew Pills to become rich. They had plenty of guilds to provide for them, and they never had to worry about money.
But Happy had to admit that he was also a little disappointed.
He had wished that Pomelo would level up quickly so that he could create higher-grade medicinal pills for him, but Pomelo did not do anything wrong. As of then, there were very few people who could buy higher-grade medicinal pills, or even pay attention to herbalists. All of them believed that it was a job that spent too much money and was too wasteful!
“How many Dew Pills do you have?”
Happy quickly composed himself, and soon, he became excited again. If Pomelo had been concentrating on creating Dew Pills, then he should have quite a lot of them in stock. Together with the four bottles he bought last time, he would be able to go through with his plan for high-intensity training even more smoothly. Perhaps he would even have some pills left at the end to handle his trip to Fox Cave.
Just as he expected, Pomelo began to bring out round and clear jade bottles from his Universe Bag with a proud expression. “I have nine bottles in total, and there are a total of ninety pills. There are five bottles with pills at grade ten, and four bottles with pills at grade nine. How does the original price for the pills sound?”
‘Nine bottles!’
Happy suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, brought out his money, and made the trade. Then, the valuable Dew Pills were his.
