Comprehensive Network: Starting with Martial Artists to Stack Passive Skills

Chapter 18 Red Moon's New Discovery, Old Deng from the Comprehensive Network

Another teleportation fluctuation.

Lu Da, the store manager, returned to his beloved bookstore once again.

Feeling the long-lost weakness in his body, Lu Qingfeng skillfully moved out a rattan chair and lay down on it.

[Soul Weakness: 6 hours remaining]

The familiar system notification flashed at the edge of my vision, but this was already part of the planned price.

This trip to the Red Moon was very fruitful.

Weapon Mastery Lv9 → Weapon Mastery Lv11

[Weapon Mastery Lv.11: You can quickly master various weapons, and the final damage you deal when attacking with a weapon is increased by 60%]

[New Special Effect: Skilled]

[Proficiency: You gain more proficiency when using weapons]

In addition, the effects of the Spirit Rhinoceros Amulet are also very pleasing.

Not only can it mark the enemy's location, but it is also very effective in resisting the mental erosion of the Red Moon.

According to Lu Qingfeng's estimate, it has decreased by about 80% to 90%.

"As expected of the only blue-quality item I have, its effect is really strong."

"But in other words, even the protection of blue-quality items can't keep out the corruption of the Crimson Moon?"

Daddy, what exactly did you put in my dungeon?!

In addition, the investigation by Red Moon is also progressing well.

With the help of skincare, Lu Qingfeng successfully confronted the underground red moon.

His feeling was that it was something that could be destroyed, as long as it could withstand the impact of true damage.

This was the core information he gleaned from his martial arts intuition and the feedback from the Spiritual Amulet when facing the underground crimson moon.

But Lu Qingfeng clearly wouldn't let the dungeon end so quickly.

So he decisively left the underground passage, practiced his skills for a while, took a short break, and finally cosplayed as Louis XVI, using the power of the red moon to behead himself.

"It feels like we've gotten used to suicides after all this time."

Lu Qingfeng clicked his tongue.

Then I began to review what I had gained from the previous instance and went online to discuss it.

"Disaster Coin from the Internet, +250, emmm, let me calculate, I have 550 in savings now."

According to the newcomer help posts on the general website, and based on Lu Qingfeng's observations, 550 disaster coins can basically be exchanged for a good green-quality item.

With 800 experience points remaining, Lu Qingfeng's current class level is Warrior lv3 (800/1000).

And 2 skill points, currently there's nothing else to add besides [Iron Body].

Lu Qingfeng casually added them to [Iron Body].

[Iron Body Lv2: Base defense greatly increased]

Unsurprisingly, the muscles were torn open and forcibly stitched back together, and the skin was repeatedly re-forged.

Having anticipated this, Lu Qingfeng lay down on the recliner early, waiting for the enhancement effect to end.

After a long while, having once again devoured a large amount of high-calorie food, he finally felt the intensified effect end.

Lu Qingfeng was not idle during this time either.

He skillfully opened the online forum and spent some time browsing the gossip section to reduce the pain caused by the enhancement.

"Shocking! Why are the female cultivators' clothes being stolen so frequently in the Yaochi Holy Land? And why is the Yaochi Holy Master being spied on so often? Is this a distortion of human nature or a decline in morality? Stay tuned..." (Subsequent content requires payment to view)

"A certain green ox has escaped from the Tushita Palace for the 9981st time, and the person involved, Tai, has made an important statement on this matter..."

In addition, Lu Qingfeng was also paying attention to several materials dropped in the dungeon: Broken Painted Skin (Gray) and Filthy Bone Powder (Gray).

And most importantly, the incomplete demon core (green).

The demon core exuded a chilling aura, and even through the spatial barrier of the integrated network backpack, it could still give people a sense of coldness.

"This thing...is it for refining weapons? Or for alchemy?"

Lu Qingfeng frowned.

He had almost no knowledge of cultivation techniques and couldn't think of any way to maximize their value.

But there's always a solution.

Lu Qingfeng clicked on the [Newcomer Help & Rant/Discussion Area (Apprentice Only)]

Quickly type a post using your mind: 【Eastern side newbie seeking help!】

[I just obtained a fragmented demon core, containing yin energy and resentment, and I have absolutely no idea how to handle it! I'm seeking guidance from experienced players on its use or a safe disposal method! P.S.: The dungeon is a supernatural one, and I've already cleared it.]

The content briefly explains the source (fragment of the core of the Painted Skin Demon) and the item description, and specifically marks "Eastern side" and "supernatural dungeon" in the hope of attracting seniors in related fields.

The post was published, but it disappeared without a trace.

Lu Qingfeng wasn't in a hurry; he knew the forum had huge traffic.

While waiting for a reply, he continued browsing the gossip section.

By the way, as mentioned earlier, Lu Qingfeng had received guidance from a senior from the Eastern faction, and after returning, he naturally tried to contact him.

But the big shot was probably too busy to reply.

Lu Qingfeng could only forward the post to the expert and leave a message asking for guidance.

Meanwhile, another segment also surprised Lu Qingfeng.

"However, why are there transactions labeled as 'private and exclusive' on the comprehensive online trading platform?"

This puzzled him greatly, because the items being traded were not very expensive, yet they sold very quickly.

And there's more, so buy now if you want!

Lu Qingfeng was naturally very curious, but when he asked the seller for advice, the seller ignored him and simply replied with a "Those who know, know".

"No, what do I need to know?"

Completely baffled, Lu Qingfeng could only continue surfing the web, hoping to uncover the secrets within.

Just then, a notification from the online forum flashed in Lu Qingfeng's mind:

You have a new message.

He clicked on it and saw that it was a reply from the old boss of the web series... no, the senior.

[Azure Netherworld - Xuanzhenzi]: "Were you cultivating just now? Is there any new problem?"

[Azure Netherworld - Xuanzhenzi]: "Still can't beat the Painted Skin Demon?"

[Hydrogen Wind]: "Hey boss, I've already done it. Don't you even look at the message history...?"

Beyond the endless world, in a quiet room that no one can find... cough cough.

A young man dressed in a blue Taoist robe suddenly stood up.

[Qingming Realm - Xuanzhenzi]: "What do you mean you've already fought? Wait a minute, let me check the message history."

[Azure Netherworld - Xuanzhenzi]: "Damn, how did you get through that?!"

[Hydrogen Wind]: "It's like...first there...and finally at..."

[Azure Netherworld - Xuanzhenzi]: "...6"

【Qingming Realm - Xuanzhenzi】: "What does it mean to kill the waiter, then blow up the proprietress, and finally burn the inn down?"

[Azure Netherworld - Xuanzhenzi]: "...One sword strike...and it exploded?? Are you sure that was the core resentment aggregate of the 'Painted Skin Demon'? And not just a small fry??"

A sword?

Explosion?

That's a spiritual core that requires specific exorcism methods or a powerful energy impact to destroy!

What kind of sword is this newcomer using?

What kind of martial art?

Is he really an apprentice?!

[Hydrogen Wind]: "This should be the core, right? After it hit, all the meat in the kitchen rotted, and the stench disappeared. The system notified me that I destroyed the core."

[Azure Netherworld - Xuanzhenzi]: "...The demon core has already exploded...Alright then."
