Chapter 25 - Chapter 25: Yangshou Blade Technique

Ye Lin raised his head and looked at the last three items on the auction stage.

They were a knife, a soft armor, and a bracelet. All three pieces of equipment were rare grade! They were also the last items of this auction.

"Uncle Ji, you can bid for the soft armor for Lingyu. I don't need it." Ye Lin shook his head. Not to mention that he had an immortal body, the Immortality and Invulnerability in his own curse spell could also immunize him against fatal damage. Wearing protective equipment was just a waste of effort.

"Uncle Ji, Lingyu already has one. You don't want the soft armor, so you must want the bracelet?" Uncle Ji asked in confusion.

"Not really, Uncle Ji. I want that knife!" Ye Lin's eyes shone as he looked at the knife on the stage.

"Ah? A knife?" Uncle Ji was full of confusion. Even Lingyu opened his mouth in confusion. "Boss, you're a curse spell caster. Why do you want a knife?"

"I have a curse spell that requires a knife to be cast." Ye Lin didn't explain much to the Ji family father and son.

When he reached level 10 in the Newbie Secret Realm, he unlocked his first curse spell that required a weapon to be cast. This curse spell was called Yangshou Blade Technique!

[Cursed Spell? Yangshou Blade Technique: Each time the curse spell caster slashes with the knife, one year of their lifespan is consumed. The power of each slash is twice that of the previous one, with a maximum of 99 layers.]

Only Ye Lin knew how powerful this curse spell was!

Although his strength attribute was only 160 points, if he first activated the Burning Cycle and used the Yangshou Blade Technique to stack up to the 99th layer, it would deal a whopping 698,278,992,872,729,270 points of damage!

And each slash would deal 698,278,992,872,729,270 points of damage. A 9999 slash was not a dream.

With the Immortal Body's enhancement, Ye Lin didn't have to worry about running out of lifespan.

No need to release any skills, no skill cast time or cooldown, each ordinary attack could deal nearly 32,000 points of damage. If he was given two watermelon knives in the Newbie Secret Realm, Ye Lin estimated that all the monsters in the Newbie Secret Realm would be killed by him.

If there was a single drawback to this skill, it was that it required a knife to be cast. And ordinary knives couldn't withstand the power of the Yangshou Blade Technique. Ye Lin had tried it with a kitchen knife before, and it broke after just two slashes.

"This..." Although Uncle Ji didn't understand why a curse spell caster like Ye Lin wanted a knife, he still chose to respect Ye Lin's idea.

Uncle Ji didn't bid for the soft armor or the bracelet. Eventually, the soft armor was bought by another big shot from Qingcheng, while the rare grade bracelet was bought by Zhuge Qianxing. When it was time to bid for the knife, Uncle Ji went all out.

Although there was some competition from Kenson, Uncle Ji still managed to get the rare grade knife at a price of 28 million.

[Starfall Heaven Scar]

[Level: Rare]

[Attribute: Strength +300 points] (Can be refined)

[Skill: Starlight Brilliance]

[Starlight Brilliance: Under the illumination of starlight, the strength bonus of Starfall Heaven Scar can continuously increase, with a maximum increase of 100%]

Starfall Heaven Scar lay quietly in front of Ye Lin. The blade was about three feet long, with a deep and profound starlight flowing throughout its body, as if the Milky Way in the starry sky had poured down. The blade was engraved with complex patterns, each one seeming to contain the infinite mysteries of the universe. The back of the blade was thick, while the edge was extremely sharp, exuding a fierce and sharp aura.

When Ye Lin reached out and grasped the hilt, the starlight on the blade seemed to become brighter, as if it was communicating with the stars. The light reflected on the blade was like a meteor streaking across the sky, leaving behind a dazzling scar in the heavens. At this moment, Starfall Heaven Scar seemed to resonate with the entire universe, emitting a heart-stopping aura.

"Good knife!" Ye Lin's eyes were filled with joy. This auction dinner was well worth it! He instantly transformed from having nothing but a whiteboard to possessing a full set of six pieces of equipment, which doubled his combat power.

Although his level was still only 16, with six pieces of equipment at his side, Ye Lin was fully confident that he could sweep through everyone below level 20!

If he let loose and didn't have to worry about his immortal body being discovered, even a 30th-level transfigured player, Ye Lin would dare to have a go at them.

After the last item, Starfall Sky Scar, was purchased by his uncle Ji, and with the auctioneer's sweet and clear laughter, this grand auction dinner officially came to an end.

Before leaving, Kenson coldly turned his head and made a throat-slitting gesture towards Ji Fu, then strode away.

Ji Fu narrowed his eyes slightly. It was clear that he and Kenson had now become sworn enemies. He had to be prepared.

"Lin Yu, you and Ye Lin can go back first. I still have some business to attend to," Ji Fu said.

"Okay, Dad," Ji Lin Yu obediently replied. Although he was a spoiled brat outside, in front of his father, he dared not be the least bit presumptuous. He knew very well how strict his father was.

"Let's go, big brother," Ji Lin Yu waved to Ye Lin, who quickly followed. Although he had been scheming against the Ji family, he still knew the basic principle of repaying kindness. The Ji family had been so generous to him, and he wouldn't be stingy either. With this equipment, he was confident that he could help Ji Lin Yu level up to 10 or even higher before leaving the city. After all, although the monsters outside the city were stronger, they also dropped more experience and even various materials and skill equipment.

Watching Ye Lin's departing figure, Zhuge Ni coldly snorted, her eyes full of disgust.

"I really don't know what the Ji family sees in this coward! And they even spent so much money on his equipment!"

The Ji Group had spent nearly a hundred million on equipment tonight, which was definitely not a small sum for the Ji Group. It could even be considered a huge expense.

Seeing Ye Lin, the person she detested, gain such benefits, Zhuge Ni felt extremely uncomfortable.

At this moment, Liu Yanwei, who was beside her, suddenly received a call. Her expression immediately turned strange.

"Nini, there's news about that Ling Ye you've been investigating, but... it's not good news!"

"What? There's news about Ling Ye? Where is he? Tell me quickly!" Hearing news about her beloved, Zhuge Ni forgot about Ye Lin and hurriedly pulled Liu Yanwei to ask.

"It's from the Investigation Bureau. A farm in Qingcheng was burned down, dozens of people died in the fire, and residual evil fire was found at the scene, suspected to be the work of the Ling Ye you mentioned. The Investigation Bureau hopes you can cooperate with the investigation," Liu Yanwei carefully observed Zhuge Ni's expression and said.

"Ling Ye? He killed people? Why?" !" Zhu Ge Ni's beautiful eyes were filled with confusion. "Impossible! If he were a serial killer, he wouldn't have saved me back then! Wei Wei, take me to the scene to have a look!"
