I picked up skill fragments in the demon world

Chapter 11: Beast Control

[Name: Zhang Chen]

[Skill (Tier 2): Light of the True God (0/5000)]

[Skill (Unranked): Dragon Qi (0/2000)]

[Points: 1100]

Zhang Chen was stunned as he looked at his new skill, Dragon Qi. When he initially upgraded his Mysterious Golden Light, it only required fifty points. But upgrading this new skill, Dragon Qi, actually required two thousand points?

"Could it be that the number of points required to upgrade each skill is different?" Zhang Chen looked at his new skill, Dragon Qi, a thoughtful expression on his face. "That's normal. After all, skills have strengths and weaknesses, high and low."

Zhang Chen stared at the Dragon Qi skill on his golden finger interface, a look of contemplation in his eyes, wondering what the Dragon Qi was used for. Just as thoughts flickered in his mind, a golden light burst forth from the golden finger interface, and a dragon-shaped phantom roared, seemingly shaking the four seas and eight wastelands, before suddenly burrowing into Zhang Chen's primordial spirit. Zhang Chen felt as if some inexplicable information had been added to his mind, as if he had gained some knowledge innately and naturally.

[Dragon Qi (Unranked): Can control all unranked beasts within a hundred meters for one hour. Cooldown time: one day.]

Zhang Chen inexplicably knew the information about Dragon Qi, and then he couldn't help but laugh: "This skill is good! This skill is good! It's actually a group skill, capable of controlling all unranked beasts within a hundred meters. It's simply a super buff for entering the mountains to hunt. If wild animals burrow into caves, I can control them to come out and offer themselves up to die. This is simply a god-tier skill. With this skill, why would I even need to hunt in the mountains? I can just control the wild animals to throw themselves into my net."

"This skill is quite overpowered, able to control all wild beasts within a hundred meters. If I walk around in the mountains, wouldn't I be able to gather an army of beasts...? No, there's a flaw, which is that it can't exceed one hour, and there's also a one-day cooldown time." Zhang Chen frowned as he looked at the new skill. The new skill was good, but the restrictions were too great. There were many things that could be done in one hour, but there were also too many things that couldn't be done.

Was he supposed to summon a group of wild beasts from the mountains when he encountered an opponent, and then chase after the enemy, crossing mountains and ridges?

Moreover, he had to consider the time to escape. Controlling those dangerous beasts, he had to leave himself time to escape, right?

"The one-day cooldown time is too long." Zhang Chen looked at the skill interface, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.

At this moment, Zhang Chen closed his eyes, and centered on him, the projections of animals within a hundred meters suddenly appeared in his perception.

"Hmm? There are ants, and snakes? But there seem to be too many snakes here, right?" Zhang Chen suddenly shuddered, sensing the surrounding animals, his eyes filled with horror. There were densely packed thousands of snakes within a hundred meters, simply a snake den. At this time, the snakes were coiled around in the surrounding soil, seemingly hibernating in the frozen earth.

"How can there be so many snakes? I picked up Dragon Qi, and so many snakes have gathered here. There must be a connection." Zhang Chen's expression became serious.

There were many snakes around, and the large ones were as thick as water tanks, more than ten meters long, looking like huge pythons, very terrifying. As for the small snakes, the small ones were only as thick as chopsticks, lurking around the frozen earth, hibernating.

Zhang Chen belatedly reacted and quickly looked at the stone tablet: How could this stone tablet drop skills? And it even dropped experience points?

Zhang Chen stared at the stone tablet, but saw that the stone tablet was as clean as new, spotless as if it had just been carved. The most important thing was that the bloodstains he had smeared on it yesterday had also disappeared without a trace.

"This..." Zhang Chen looked at the stone tablet in front of him, and couldn't help but gasp, a cold air rushing from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He had felt that this tomb was strange before, but he never thought that just digging out a tombstone would involve strange things.

"This stone tablet?" Zhang Chen silently activated the Light of the True God for defense, and then carefully stared at the stone tablet, but saw nothing unusual about the stone tablet, so he secretly felt relieved:

"This stone tablet dropping skills is a good thing for me. If I can get a few more, wouldn't I be rich?"

Zhang Chen then thought that he had smeared the stone tablet with blood yesterday. Could the stone tablet dropping skills be related to his smearing blood yesterday?

Zhang Chen squatted in front of the stone tablet, always feeling that this tomb was very strange, but facing the temptation of experience points and skills, he couldn't bear to give it up.

If he didn't continue digging, where would he get experience points? How could he upgrade his skills?

Zhang Chen pondered for a moment, and still felt that the bold would be full and the timid would starve, so he still had to continue digging.

Zhang Chen took out his hammer and continued to dig in the frozen soil, unaware that a white fox had come outside the cave at this time. The white fox was standing at the entrance of the cave, looking at the dark and deep cave, listening to the clanging sound of the chisel inside, its face full of hesitation and wandering. It stared at the cave for a long time, and finally turned its head and chose to leave.

A day passed in the blink of an eye. Zhang Chen was wearing animal skins, and this time the digging lasted much longer.

[Experience +18]

[Experience +7]

[Experience +16]

[Experience +32]

[Experience +77]

[Experience +15]

[Experience +9]

...

At a certain moment, Zhang Chen stopped digging, shook off the soil on his body, and then looked at his golden finger interface:

[Name: Zhang Chen]

[Skill 1 (Tier 2): Light of the True God (0/5000)]

[Skill 2 (Unranked): Dragon Qi (0/2000)]

[Points: 1500]

"Today I actually gained four hundred experience points, which is really good news for me. After collecting five hundred more experience points, Dragon Qi should be able to be upgraded. But now I am facing two choices. The first choice is to save up five thousand experience points, and then upgrade my Tier 2 skill, Light of the True God, to Tier 3. The second choice is to upgrade my second skill when I have two thousand skill points, pushing my second skill to Tier 1, which will definitely be a great improvement." Zhang Chen looked at his golden finger interface, a look of contemplation in his eyes.

The Light of the True God can ward off evil, especially restraining ominous forces at the soul level. The second skill directly acts on the animal's body. If I increase the level of the second skill, and directly control the fox spirit, wouldn't I be able to directly ask the fox spirit to pour tea, wash clothes, and fold quilts for me?

Zhang Chen secretly pondered: "But it's hard to judge what tier that fox spirit is. It should be at least Tier 3, right? Because I can't see through the fox spirit's details at all now. It's always right to overestimate a little. Overestimating a little doesn't affect the overall situation. If I underestimate it, I'm afraid I will die miserably!"

Thanks to book friend "Ping An An Qi Qi" for the 300-point coin reward.
