No matter if the sayings in novels or TV dramas from his past life are reliable or not, Zhang Chen decided to only dig when the Yang Qi is at its peak at noon, and go ho to rest after noon.
Though the treasures and experience points inside the ancient tomb are important, his own life is more important.
At certain monts in life, people subconsciously choose to believe in a bit of superstition, choose to believe in superstition.
In the room next door, the Fox Spirit watched Zhang Chen’s departing figure, the corners of her mouth curving into an attractive smile: "I knew this reckless fool would take the bait. No one can resist the temptation of money."
Zhang Chen carried his shovel, following the path back to the cave entrance. After observing it closely for a while, he said, surprised, "The pheasant left from the entrance."
If the pheasant could leave from the entrance, it ant that it was still very safe inside; otherwise, the pheasant would have already lost its life.
Looking at the experience points at the cave entrance, Zhang Chen’s eyes lit up, and without another word, he started digging.
The experience points were only about a ter away from the entrance. Zhang Chen dug for half an hour, and a large amount of experience points were already within reach.
"So many experience points!"
Looking at the experience points before him, Zhang Chen was astonished. Those red orbs had numbers floating above them: so were ’ 10’, so ’ 20’, so ’ 50’, and so ’ 100’. Of course, there were also ’ 1’, ’ 2’, ’ 5’, ’ 8’, and ’ 9’. You could say everything from one to a hundred was all there.
"I’m going to get rich! Who knows how deep this cave goes; looking further into the depths, it’s full of experience points. If I keep digging down, my skills might soar to the heavens, and subduing that Fox Spirit would be as simple as a snap of my fingers." Zhang Chen salivated at the sight of the experience points in front of him.
Just then, Zhang Chen’s Golden Finger had already detected the experience points, and the Golden Finger Interface popped out:
[Experience points detected, would you like to collect them?]
"Collect!" Zhang Chen thought to himself.
[Experience points 10]
[Experience points 30]
[Experience points 50]
[Experience points 9]
[Experience points 8]
[Experience points 35]
...
As Zhang Chen dug furiously, his experience points began to increase rapidly. It wasn’t until after noon that Zhang Chen stopped his shovel, completely drenched in sweat and gasping for breath. He had dug a large pit: "Let see how many experience points I have now?"
Though digging pits was hard work, gaining experience points was truly satisfying.
[Na: Zhang Chen]
[Skill (Level 1): Exorcising Golden Light (0/500)]
[Points: 350]
"Only three hundred and fifty points?" Zhang Chen looked at the experience points on the interface, feeling a bit dissatisfied. After toiling under the scorching sun for half a day, he only amassed 350 points. It felt a bit too little.
"I’m just 150 points away from leveling up." Zhang Chen looked at the Golden Finger Interface, muttering to himself that if he dug for two more hours, he should be able to level up, right?
The temptation of leveling up was indescribable for Zhang Chen.
"To say there’s truly sothing harmful in this ancient tomb, I don’t really believe it. After all, there’s a village not far from here. If there really were sothing harmful in the ancient tomb, rumors would have long erged from the village, and perhaps everyone in the village would have suffered." Zhang Chen looked up at the sky. According to modern tikeeping, even digging two more hours would only be about four in the afternoon, and the sun would still be quite strong then.
Looking at the Golden Finger Interface, just shy of 150 experience points, Zhang Chen picked up his shovel and continued working without hesitation.
Shovel after shovel of earth was dug out, and the experience points on Zhang Chen’s Golden Finger Interface started accumulating rapidly.
[Experience points 1]
[Experience points 9]
[Experience points 5]
[Experience points 20]
[Experience points 7]
[Experience points 35]
...
Finally, at a certain mont, Zhang Chen stopped his shovel, his eyes glued to his Golden Finger Interface, filled with excitent:
[Na: Zhang Chen]
[Skill (Level 1): Exorcising Golden Light (0/500)]
[Points: 507]
"Level up." Zhang Chen didn’t even think, directly saying it aloud.
[Na: Zhang Chen]
[Skill (Level 2): Light of the True God (0/5000)]
[Points: 7]
"What is this?" Zhang Chen’s eyes fell on the skill, noticing his Skill Exorcising Golden Light had upgraded from Level 1 to Level 2, advancing to Light of the True God.
Zhang Chen suddenly felt his body heat up, a warm current flowing through him. It was as if he was soaking in warm water, a feeling he couldn’t describe surged up inside his heart.
His Dantian seed to be breathing, as if it had co to life. With each breath he took, it felt as though a light was gestating within his Dantian.
That light was vast and grand like a Divine Spirit in the world, emitting an indescribable aura of righteousness and grandeur, as if it could dispel all evil in the world, sheltering all beings, driving away all darkness and misfortune.
Its Divine Power was as unfathomable as an abyss, yet like the sun hanging high in the heavens, overlooking the multitude of living beings, benefitting all life, making people dare not gaze directly upon it.
"And then? That’s it?" Zhang Chen woke from the majestic aura, a look of confusion in his eyes.
Shouldn’t it give so kind of cheat ability?
Not to ntion Moving Mountains and Inverting Seas, at least give so Extraordinary Power, right? Why did it suddenly end?
Zhang Chen’s eyes settled on the experience points behind ’Light of the True God’, feeling a pang of heartache: "The first level experience points to upgrade to second level were only five hundred, but now to upgrade from the second level to the third, it needs five thousand?"
What does five thousand experience points even an?
