Conquer the game world

Chapter 37 Power Fruit

"Brother Ye Feng, we owe you a lot this time." This is what Shui Xuan said to Ye Feng. Ye Feng had shown amazing combat power in the battle just now, which made Shui Xuan secretly shocked.

Perhaps Shui Xuan was conscious of it, or perhaps it was unintentional, but Shui Xuan had already begun to regard Ye Feng as an equal, no longer seeing him as her disciple.

"Brother Shui Xuan, you're too kind." Ye Feng didn't stand on ceremony for the change in address. Originally, Shui Xuan hadn't taught Ye Feng anything, and Ye Feng was only here for the dungeon. Ye Feng hadn't really considered Shui Xuan his master.

After exchanging a few casual pleasantries, Shui Xuan asked Ye Feng to look after everyone and left on her own, presumably because there were many things she would need to handle after the great battle.

After Shui Xuan left, Ye Feng and Shi Lei also quickly prepared to leave. Although Shui Ying hadn't caused any trouble so far today, the two didn't dare to stay any longer and hurriedly said goodbye before departing.

Just as Ye Feng was about to leave, Shui Ying suddenly blocked his way and asked, "Hey, will you still cook for me in the future?"

"Wow, this girl is such a glutton! What's going on? She's still only thinking about food," Ye Feng thought to himself, but he didn't dare say it out loud. He quickly and confidently agreed, as he didn't want to waste any more time here.

Having agreed to continue cooking, Ye Feng finally got rid of Shui Ying and returned to his residence at the Stardust Sect.

It's been a long time since we left, and we've been through many battles. Ye Feng hasn't had time to organize his belongings or anything like that.

Back at his residence, Ye Feng quickly entered the game system in his mind.

The biggest gain for Ye Feng this time was undoubtedly the large amount of experience points. In a short period of time, Ye Feng had already leveled up to level 20. In the Star Dust Sect, Ye Feng estimated that apart from Xing Tianyu, he was probably the strongest expert. Even with Xing Tianyu, Ye Feng believed that with his numerous skills and combat experience, dealing with Xing Tianyu would not be a problem.

Besides the experience points, there were also some miscellaneous items. The items were not many at all; they were mainly common materials and gems obtained from the dungeons inside the barrier, as well as gems dropped by the barrier's stone monsters.

Aside from materials and gems, Ye Feng's biggest gain was the rune stone. Although rune stones, like gems, are special items used to be socketed into equipment, the special effects and bonuses that rune combinations can provide are far superior to those of gems. Therefore, runes are naturally much more important than gems.

There are 35 rune stones in total. Combining these 35 rune stones in different ways can trigger different equipment effects.

Of course, in the game, the higher the number of the rune stone, the harder it is to obtain. What Ye Feng obtained at this time was the most ordinary No. 1 rune stone.

Since rune stones are hard to obtain, high-level runes can be synthesized from low-level runes and some materials. Of course, this requires learning the rune refining auxiliary skill, and the success rate is not very high. If it fails, the rune stones used as materials will also be lost.

Currently, Ye Feng has only obtained the No. 1 Rune Stone. Combining equipment runes is still a long way off for Ye Feng. He puts this matter aside for now and looks at the new features that will be available after reaching level 20.

After Ye Feng reached level 20, his support skills were unlocked. At this time, Ye Feng found the support skill option next to his inventory.

There are many types of auxiliary skills, such as crafting skills for making equipment, and skills that increase a character's maximum health and mana. There are many types, but each one requires experience points and in-game gold to learn.

After thinking it over, Ye Feng decided to learn the skill of crafting equipment. After all, the equipment in this world might not be suitable. Ye Feng was a perfectionist and wanted to use the most suitable equipment, especially when it came to equipment.

The level of auxiliary skills cannot be higher than Ye Feng's own character level. Ye Feng is currently level 20, so the highest level of auxiliary skills he can learn is level 20, and he can only craft level 20 equipment. Crafting skills are essential, as are skills that increase maximum health and mana. Just by learning these three skills to level 20, Ye Feng's game gold and saved experience will be almost depleted again.

He had only learned three skills, and those were only the first 20 levels. The experience and gold coin consumption was not much, but even so, Ye Feng still used up all his experience and gold coins.

Looking at the gold coins and experience points in the package, Ye Feng sighed. It seemed that the road ahead was long and arduous.

Having mastered the skills, Ye Feng checked the dungeon updates. The Stardust Gate dungeon had appeared in the available dungeons. To Ye Feng's surprise, the underground cave that could be entered through the barrier had also become a dungeon that could be entered. Of course, both dungeons had a daily limit on the number of times one could enter.

Ye Feng did not choose to enter the dungeon immediately. Instead, he tidied up his pack and then stopped paying attention to the game system. At this moment, Ye Feng heard a familiar voice from outside.

"Damn it, these bastards are still causing trouble even after they're dead, they're disgusting." At this moment, Song Yu, Li Cheng, and Su Yi arrived in front of Ye Feng's residence. "Hey, Little Ye, come out quickly."

Song Yu, Li Cheng, and Su Yi were ordinary disciples, and only at the first level of the Spirit Light Realm. They were the weakest in the sect, so they were naturally left behind to clean up the battlefield after the great battle. Because of their lowest status, they did the dirtiest and most tiring work.

In contrast, Ye Feng was different. Although he was an ordinary disciple who entered the sect at the same time, his performance in the great battle meant that he was not assigned to do such dirty work. The three of them were extremely jealous of this.

"Little Ye, how did you suddenly become so amazing? How much dog poop did you step in inside the barrier?" the three said as Ye Feng approached.

Compared to Shui Xuan's unconscious respect for Ye Feng after witnessing his strength, these three guys showed no courtesy to Ye Feng at all, treating him as usual. Moreover, Ye Feng could tell that they were also happy about his improved strength.

"What nonsense! You're just jealous and envious. I'm a prodigy. What techniques or cultivation methods are a piece of cake for me, understand?" Ye Feng joked. He liked this feeling even more. In his opinion, no matter how powerful he was, those who offered him such blessings were the ones who truly considered him a good friend.

"Tch, everyone knows your talent. Who was it that carried you around back then? Tell the truth." The three of them naturally didn't believe that Ye Feng was some kind of exceptionally talented guy.

Of course, Ye Feng wouldn't tell the three the truth about this. There was no other way; he couldn't very well say that he just casually fought monsters and killed people to level up.

"There's no other way, so I'll tell you. During this trip to the barrier, I ate the 'Power Fruit,' which greatly increased my power. I will definitely be invincible in the future." Ye Feng had no choice but to use the Power Fruit as a shield.

"Really? No way! I wish I had gone too."

"Yeah, yeah, how come you're so lucky?"

"Little Yezi, you're making me so envious!" Hearing that Ye Feng had obtained the Power Fruit, the three of them were genuinely envious, each expressing their envy and jealousy. However, their words were mostly laced with jokes and blessings.

"If you had gone, you would have been dead long ago," Ye Feng thought to himself. After all, only Ye Feng and Shi Lei had survived this time. Many martial artists at the ninth level of the Spirit Light realm had died inside, let alone the three of them, novices.

"Alright, stop with the nonsense. To be honest, I brought a few back for you this time." Ye Feng took out some cultivation fruits and gave one to each of the three of them. Although these fruits were very valuable, they were worthless to Ye Feng, so he generously took them out...
