There's a skeleton dungeon connected to my basement.

Chapter 79: It’s New Year Again
When Xiao Yang crawled out of the Skeleton Dungeon again, it was morning in the real world. The sunlight fell on Xiao Yang, who had a strange smell on his body, making him feel as if he was in another world.

He had to take a shower, so he turned on the gas valve and the gas water heater. The hot water fell on Xiao Yang's body, but he felt neither cold nor hot.

He took a look at the temperature valve of the water heater. It was eighty degrees. Normally, this temperature was enough to burn pig skin, but now it only felt a little warm when it fell on Xiao Yang.

But that's true. With Xiao Yang's current attributes, he could probably take a fin-stabilized discarding sabot armor-piercing round head-on and still be alive and kicking.

"Hiss! It doesn't hurt!"

Xiao Yang's strong physical fitness has made him less sensitive to temperature changes.

He did have a bit of the feeling of being immune to cold and heat as in the fairy tales. Not only that, but Xiao Yang's excretion frequency was also getting less and less during this period. His appetite was getting bigger and bigger, but his excretion was getting less and less. This meant that Xiao Yang's digestive system was also beginning to improve along with his physical fitness.

Greater endurance, no longer easily shed hair, increasingly sharper vision in the dark, increasingly three-dimensional hearing, plus immunity to cold and heat and the ability to fast.

To some extent, Xiao Yang is also approaching the immortal cultivators. Of course, those immortal cultivators rely on their breath and their own ability to absorb and exhale spiritual energy, while Xiao Yang relies on the spontaneous transformation of his body after all his attributes reach the peak.

Xiao Yang inexplicably had a special premonition that if he completed the upgrade and his attributes were improved in all aspects again, then these special aspects would probably gradually transform into his characteristics.

Speaking of upgrading, Xiao Yang, who had just taken a shower and opened the refrigerator to open a bottle of sweet water for himself, suddenly noticed something was wrong.

"Yeah! Isn't there a level-up thing? The God Game!"

When Xiao Yang suddenly realized this problem, the intermittent prompts of the God Game popped up.

[Detected, player, return to the original plane, whether to start the upgrade test, this plane is seriously lagging, to avoid affecting the player's upgrade, please inject spirit coins as soon as possible. ]

Xiao Yang ran back to the cellar door and the signal improved immediately.

[Do you want to inject spirit coins: 3146125.]

Xiao Yang had just enough spirit coins in his hand, or rather, he deliberately reserved enough spirit coins to enhance the signal.

"injection!"

As the numbers in Xiao Yang's account quickly passed by, there were no cool effects or more obvious changes, only the lagging God Game suddenly became coherent.

[Do you want to start the upgrade test? ]

"Yes!"

[The player has confirmed the upgrade. It has been detected that the player's four attributes have reached the current level limit. Please select the attribute you want to upgrade.]

"Why is there no spiritual attribute upgrade?"

Xiao Yang's words interrupted the prompt of God Game. After a brief pause, God Game responded to Xiao Yang.

[Spiritual attributes are special attributes, and their transformation and upgrade require players to explore on their own.]

"Can you give me a hint?"

[Matter belongs to the world, soul belongs to God, and free will belongs to oneself]

Xiao Yang tried to ask the God Game, and unexpectedly he actually got an answer. Although the answer was a sentence that was not very clear to people, it was enough to illustrate Xiao Yang's status in the God Game of this plane.

It can only be said that the God Game of the 33214th dimension is becoming more and more like Xiao Yang.

Without asking any more questions about the upgrade of his spiritual attributes, and without too much hesitation, Xiao Yang chose the attribute he wanted to upgrade.

"Except for the spiritual attributes, all others will be upgraded."

[Assessment preparation in progress, countdown begins. The assessment is expected to officially begin in fifteen hours. Please do not initiate plane travel during this period.]

When this prompt appeared, Xiao Yang suddenly had twelve more hours of free time. This kind of calm before the storm was the most disturbing.

But think about it carefully, does Xiao Yang need to be afraid of this test?
With his current equipment, attributes, and skills, even without a profession, Xiao Yang is confident that he has reached the top among many God Game players, at least at the top of the first level-up stage.

If he couldn't reach this level, then he didn't know who else would be qualified to break this attribute limit.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yang was no longer panicked. He calmed down and took the ongoing countdown calmly.

It’s not that this upgrade is not important to Xiao Yang, it’s just that he can now deal with it calmly.

The spiritual stride made Xiao Yang increasingly powerful.

Suddenly, a series of firecrackers rang out outside the house, drawing Xiao Yang's attention. He pushed open the door and saw, from afar, a lavish convoy of cars setting off firecrackers. Amid the blast, a middle-aged man with a large belly happily distributed red envelopes to his neighbors. Beside him, a well-maintained middle-aged woman dealt with her daughter, who was constantly flirting with her.

Xiao Yang could see this lively scene clearly, even though he was some distance away.

Xiao Yang used the eyes that were undergoing transformation to peek from afar without hesitation.

Of course, peeping is always a bad thing, especially when Xiao Yang was concentrating on watching, a figure suddenly turned his head and looked in his direction.

He averted his gaze guiltily.

The luxurious convoy finally stopped in front of the house opposite Xiao Yang, and an elderly couple was reluctantly invited out.

From a distance, Xiao Yang heard these words.

"Dad, your son has made it big, and it's time for me to take you out to enjoy life. Besides, Yingzhen is grown up now, and when she gets married and has children, I'll still count on you to take care of them!"

After hearing these words, the old people finally gave in reluctantly and were happily welcomed into the luxury car. However, before getting in the car, the old man still muttered something, and Xiao Yang heard his own name in it.

Soon after, a young girl came towards Xiao Yang holding a big red bucket.

Xiao Yang walked towards her and took the thing from her hand.

Looking at Xiao Yang who suddenly appeared in front of him, Lin Yingzhen was really angry. He had come to look for Xiao Yang many times in these days, but he never found Xiao Yang.

"I'm leaving. After Dad takes Grandpa and Grandma away for the New Year, I won't be back!"

I don't know why, but the tone of his voice when he spoke angrily was filled with a hint of resentment.

Xiao Yang pretended not to hear this resentment.

"That's good. Going to the city is definitely better than being here!"

"I mean I'm leaving!"

"I know!"

"I'm not coming back!"

"I know!"

"Can you add me as a friend? Then I can come visit you when I have time. You can chat with me too!"

"Give me a boost!"

In such a simple conversation, the sorrow in Lin Yingzhen's words disappeared completely, and she even became a little angry, throwing the bucket in her hand towards Xiao Yang.

But in the end, the two of them became friends.

Lin Yingzhen threw away the red plastic bucket in his hand and left angrily.

The plastic bucket contained some sausages, bacon, dried duck, fish and a bulging red envelope.

Xiao Yang finally watched them leave.

After Grandpa Lin and his family left, there were fewer people who would take care of him.

After looking at the calendar, Xiao Yang found that tomorrow was New Year's Eve.

The New Year is approaching, but I feel like I am all alone. However, I can’t say that there is no New Year atmosphere at all.

"At least this year we still have cured duck, cured fish, cured sausage, cured meat, and small bones! And you guys are here to keep me company!"

The words of trying to find joy in suffering suddenly rose in tone midway through.

Turning around, Xiao Yang saw Xiaogu, who was wearing a pair of beautiful white boots and appeared in the room at some point and was looking around curiously. Amidst the clicking sounds, Xiaogu noticed that Xiao Yang was looking at him and turned his head slightly.

Yes, now that I have recharged, Xiaogu can get out of the dungeon!

It's New Year again.

This year is not lonely.
