I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes

Chapter 4

Unexpectedly, Feng Xia Is Back!

After he killed eight more cloud giants, the number of cloud giants appearing at the same time increased from two to three.

It was only then that Feng Xia was finally certain of something—

He might have been wrong about that person.

Look, the black jade spiders from before had allowed him to absorb a large number of attribute light balls. Due to that, he possessed some form of ability to protect himself in this alternate world.

These cloud giants seemed aggressive, but in fact, he was able to deal with them with his current level of strength.

The other party only conjured up more cloud giants when he had adapted to the current battle rhythm. In other words, was this what was known as “training someone by throwing moves at him”?

If that man was not a nice person, how could he be so kind to a stranger?

Good man!

Kind man!

“It seems that I’ve been online too much in the past. Wherever I go, I feel that people are no longer as nice as before. Now, it seems that at least the people in the alternate world are still very simple…”

Feng Xia felt a little ashamed when he thought of this.

It was true that going through actual combat was indeed one of the best ways to learn.

Not long ago, he was still an otaku with even less combat strength than a goose. After fighting the black jade spiders and defeating the cloud giants, Feng Xia already looked as though he was comfortable on the battlefield.

“Eh, no more new cloud giants?”

After defeating another cloud giant, Feng Xia waited for a long time, but no new cloud giant was formed.

However, in the blink of an eye, he looked like he understood something. After all, this senior was still suppressed in the seal. It must be very tiring to keep throwing moves at him and the senior must need a good rest after all this time.

“Kid, do you feel any changes in yourself?”

While Feng Xia was still thinking, Patriarch Chenhai’s voice sounded again, with an imperceptible hint of mockery.

By now, if things progressed as expected, this young man would feel his mind stiffening, as if it had been filled with glue, and he would then fall into a frozen and sluggish state bit by bit.

That was the effect of the “soul seed”.

Once the power of the soul seed fully erupted, it would transform into countless spiritual threads that would completely replace Feng Xia’s consciousness, so that he could control this young man’s body!

As expected, he was helping me by throwing moves at me just now…

After hearing what Patriarch Chenhai said, Feng Xia was even more certain of what he was thinking.

“Senior, there are indeed changes.”

He thought for a moment before answering honestly, “I can sense that I’m different from before, especially now…”

The moment Feng Xia spoke, Patriarch Chenhai also moved. His mocking sneer sounded from the depths of the sea of clouds. “In that case, you can continue to stay here—”

To become his body and let him walk the world again!

“However, you have already spent too much effort on me. I don’t dare to continue disturbing you, so I’ll take my leave today and visit you another day.”

Patriarch Chenhai only just heard Feng Xia’s second sentence.

Before the patriarch could put a stop to it, the young man bowed slightly and saluted with his fists. Then, with astonishing speed, he turned into a shadow and dissipated from this space.

“…”

Silence.

Dead silence.

The sea of clouds was ethereal and white fog filled the sky. Everything around him looked the same as usual, as if the young man’s existence was just a beautiful illusion.

After a long time, there was an earth-shattering roar. It was like a huge explosion went through the sea of clouds, instantly sweeping the clouds in all directions and almost causing a storm!

“Damn it!”

“How did the damn kid get away?!”

“This kid was hit by my soul seed. How can he escape?”

This aura was so terrifying that it was like an indescribable dark shadow that threatened to tear the entire sea of clouds apart. “Damn it, who can tell me what’s going on? He can still escape after being hit by the soul seed. How can this be allowed? Who the hell allows this!”

Boom—

At this moment.

Runes suddenly appeared in every corner of the sea of clouds. They overlapped one another like vast stars and linked up, turning into a huge ladle that looked real. It then smashed down fiercely!

“What the…”

Patriarch Chenhai’s roar stopped.

In the depths of the sea of clouds, Patriarch Chenhai lay face down in the middle of the suppression seal, barely breathing. After a long time, he finally managed to squeeze out a few words with difficulty.

“Wu Guan … damn you …”

After another long period of time, Patriarch Chenhai finally got up with difficulty and muttered to himself weakly, “Fortunately, as long as one leaves this space, all the memories related to it will also disappear. That kid won’t remember anything that happened here… Well, I still have enough time and opportunity to deal with this bloody kid slowly!”

…

Feng Xia’s eyes snapped open.

He immediately looked around carefully and realized that while he was sleeping, the darkness of the night had already enveloped this place.

A huge silver moon hung high in the sky, and the moonlight was like nectar flowing down, draping the entire land with a silvery color.

It was mysterious and quiet.

“I don’t know how long I slept, but at least I slept well… Well, I think I even had a dream?”

Feng Xia stretched contentedly. Suddenly, he recalled the blurry “dream scene” and looked down at himself. The clothes he was wearing had become tattered at some point, similar to what he remembered from the “dream scene”!

“Does that mean I wasn’t dreaming before, but really left this place? And I really ran into a… nice man?”

As he checked himself out, Feng Xia could not help being stunned and kept muttering to himself.

After he woke up, the scenes from the dream had already become quite blurry. Fortunately, he had only just woken up, so he could still recall some details.

“I remember … I think I met an old man …”

“The old man seems to have a sharp tongue… but though he has a sharp tongue, he has a soft heart?”

“What was I doing there? I remember I seemed to be sparring with someone and that old man seemed to be giving me pointers…”

“Apart from these… Oh right, attribute light balls! I seemed to have picked up a lot of ‘Spirit’ light balls!”

If his dream was not just a dream but a real encounter, then based on what he had previously experienced, absorbing the Spirit light balls would strengthen his spiritual power!

“But the question now is… how do I use spiritual power?”

Feng Xia changed his posture and sat cross-legged in the treetop, lost in his thoughts.

However, after taking a few breaths, he chose to give up thinking.

He reckoned that there were probably cultivation techniques, martial arts and divine powers in the alternate world, but… he did not know any of them at all!

Since he did not know anything, no amount of thinking would help.

“I wonder what’s the effect after my spiritual power gets strengthened? Hmm, when that kind old grandpa has rested enough, I might have a chance to go there a second time…

“I’ll ask that senior about this when I meet him next time.”

“Oh right, he seems to be able to conjure up a type of white cloud giant. When I kill it, it’ll drop attribute light balls… Maybe next time I can ask him if he can conjure up more?”

The use of having strong spiritual power…

Feng Xia would soon know the answer.

Or rather, part of the answer.

“As my spiritual power becomes stronger, I seem to need less sleep!”

It had been a day since he woke up. Although he did not know whether the alternate world also had twenty-four hours a day, the sun and moon had gone through a complete cycle during the period he was awake.

However, Feng Xia still did not feel sleepy at all.

So this was the world of cultivators!

The hale and hearty… no, the refreshed Feng Xia came to this conclusion in his mind without any basis.

“If I had this level of energy before I transmigrated, I could have handled 10 mobile games at the same time. Actually, no, my wallet would face the biggest problem… Forget it. Since I’m already in this world, I’ll have to adapt to it first.

Feng Xia took a deep breath and slowly let it out. After that, he leaped down from the tree. “It’s time to continue looking for a way out of the forest.”

He chose a direction and then marked the trees, and set off without any hesitation.

More than two hours later, Feng Xia stopped in front of a huge abyss. He looked at the bottomless chasm at his feet with an unusually colorful expression.

“What the hell! This direction leads to a dead end!”

Feng Xia hesitated for a while before finally changing direction.

Nearly six hours had passed.

“Why is it also a dead end in this direction?!”

Feng Xia looked at the endless abyss at his feet and felt a bad feeling coming over him.

This time, he almost did not hesitate at all. He changed direction again and set out for the third time.

However…

“Why the heck?!”

Dead end!

The third direction also led him to a devastatingly deep chasm that sealed off Feng Xia’s escape route. He even discovered a large spider web on the cliff, with black jade spiders of various sizes crawling on it.

“There’s only one direction left.”

When the darkness of the night enveloped the land again, Feng Xia squatted in front of a vast abyss, feeling depressed. His expressions changed as quickly as pages of a book being flipped. After a long time, he turned around and walked back to the tree where he had set off from.

“Damn it—”

Feng Xia spat out the words suddenly.

He did not expect that the place he landed on after transmigration would actually be a huge “island”!

No matter which direction he went, he would eventually encounter an insurmountable abyss. It was like a ring-shaped barrier that isolated the land in the middle from the outside world!

“Unless I can fly, there’s no way I can leave… Wait a minute, maybe I should ask that senior. He might know the way out!”

With that in mind, Feng Xia lay back down in the tree.

Before long, the fatigue of a long day’s travel overwhelmed him, and he gradually fell asleep.

“How dare you come here again?!”

Suddenly, an angry shout exploded in Feng Xia’s ears.

…
