A Game for Everyone: God-Level Talent is Achieved Through Rolling In.

Nie Wan thought that the attribute bonuses on the Cold Star Moon equipment, which would be displayed as a level 20 exquisite earring, were not much. All basic attributes were increased by 10, which was not considered one of the best among exquisite equipment.

But all skills are directly upgraded by one level, which is something other exquisite equipment can't match.

Nie Wan had been practicing her skill proficiency while killing monsters.

Skill proficiency isn't something you can increase by using a skill once; it requires proper casting, hitting the target's weak point, and dealing damage that exceeds the value stated in the skill description.

Therefore, many people have to set aside time specifically to practice skill proficiency, while very few people can practice proficiency while leveling up.

Nie Wan could barely manage to maintain proper technique while quickly defeating monsters because she had practiced intensively in her previous life. However, even with rigorous practice, it was difficult to ensure that each skill usage would effectively improve skill proficiency during the fast-paced leveling process.

In both the previous Dark River Maze and the current Cold Moon Immortal Palace, Xiaoyu was the main damage dealer, while she was only responsible for finishing off enemies, which greatly improved her skill proficiency.

Even so, it only slightly increases the level of the main attack skills, such as Infant Fire, Thunderfire Talisman, and Five Thunder Technique, by one.

It is clear that in this game, even for someone like Nie Wan, it is almost impossible to improve her skill level solely through skill proficiency.

Therefore, equipment that can upgrade skill levels is extremely rare and hard to come by among ordinary players.

Needless to say, Nie Wan's pair of Cold Stars and Moon Beads enhanced all her skills, including the passive skills she used to mindlessly stack attributes.

If it weren't for the fact that her professional equipment was tied to her, many people would have tried to kill her just for those earrings.

Of course, the benefits of the moon shining brightly under a cold star don't stop there.

After she advances to the ordinary rank, the rank of these earrings will also be upgraded. At that time, it won't just be an upgrade of 1 level, but a direct upgrade of 10 levels.

With the added boost from the skill template, Nie Wan's strength underwent a complete transformation.

In her past life, her ability to stand out was undoubtedly aided by the significant boost from these earrings.

The illusion around her began to shatter slowly. Nie Wan entered the second palace, still having Xiao Yu stand in front of her as she continued to clear away the illusions.

Xiaoyu continued to fight monsters ahead, while Nie Wan followed behind, practicing her skills and identifying the items brought out of the ancient tomb.

There were so many of these things, it was dazzling at first glance. The gems were even more bizarre, some round, some square, some triangular, and some didn't even look like gems at all, but rather like crystallized souls or sculptures. Nie Wan had to look at them one by one to make sure that nothing was missed.

Although it's dazzling, the feeling of happiness is still greater.

Besides the Mirage Pearl, other attribute-boosting gems also have excellent effects. One grants +200 speed, instantly turning you into a flying machine; another grants +500 health and 20% health bonus, making your health bar so thick you're practically indestructible; and there are also gems that grant +120% magic attack and +50% magic defense…

There are so many different kinds of things that it makes people drool.

Unfortunately, these gems can only be used on equipment level 50 and above. Although the entire Cold Moon Immortal Palace occasionally drops some items, apart from her three quest equipment pieces, none of the other equipment can be level 50 or above. Even if she drilled holes all over the three quest equipment pieces, she still couldn't fit all these gems in.

Furthermore, Nie Wan didn't buy any equipment drilling tools. The Cold Star Moon only had three built-in gem sockets, and the other two pieces of equipment were the same.

These glittering gems will have to stay in my backpack for now.

Nie Wan kept the gems that she needed most—those that increased health, mana, and magic attack, as well as a few that increased skill level by 1. She packed up the rest and piled them together with spices, intending to give them to Lan Xiangyuan later.

After the gems, it's time to organize the equipment.

What made Nie Wan's stomach ache was that most of the equipment Lan Xiangyuan obtained was physical-type. Apart from one fire-type magic item that she could use, the rest were useless.

However, Nie Wan still carefully examined the attributes of these equipment and found that most of them were for warriors. She then sorted out one set and attached a note to it.

"For Langya Yue."

Of course, there's another meaning to this.

Koihara no Ueki would not refuse such a powerful set of equipment, but just looking at its powerful attributes without being able to use it would definitely make him envious.

Once the location of the dungeon that produces mirage pearls is revealed, Lan Xiangyuan can negotiate terms with them, splitting the payment 50/50, and have them help her farm mirage pearls.

Naturally, in order to appease Lan Xiangyuan, Nie Wan also pieced together a set of assassin equipment from these items, and even put the Dragon Blood Xuanhuang Dagger dropped by the Bitter Yaksha into it, intending to trade it to Lan Xiangyuan later, so that she could also join the covetous path of striving for high-level equipment.

After organizing the equipment, all that was left were some items.

Some of the items are skill scrolls, most of which are exquisite, with a few spirit treasure scrolls mixed in.

Nie Wan left behind two spirit scrolls containing physical skills, "Shaking the Sky and Shaking the Sea" and "Dragon and Elephant Divine Power," as well as several scrolls on acceleration, which she would use to fight the boss.

Nie Wan sealed away all the remaining exquisite scrolls of magic skills and spirit treasure scrolls.

The exquisite scroll may not deal as much damage as a skill cast by oneself, so it's more suitable to give it to Lan Xiangyuan to handle. The spirit scroll can be used as a trump card, but it's easy to be mistakenly taken if it's placed in the frequently used slot, so it must be placed in the dedicated slot and treated carefully.

Aside from scrolls, there are very few items that directly increase combat power.

Their functions are mostly strange and unusual, such as turning into flowers, grass, or mushrooms, becoming invisible, or releasing foul odors to attack. They have little practical killing power, but they can turn the tide of battle when used unexpectedly.

Nie Wan also picked out some items that she found easy to use and wanted to study. She also packed up those items that she had thoroughly researched in her previous life and knew were not suitable for her usual techniques and tactics, preparing to give them to Lan Xiangyuan.

The remaining items are completely unrelated to combat, do not add any attributes, and can only be used to sell for money or exchange for quest clues from NPCs.

One of the props that Nie Wan found particularly interesting was a black and white yin-yang fish jade pendant.

The prop is called the Wheel of Fortune.

The item description reads, "Black and White Impermanence, fortune and misfortune are determined by oneself."

For some reason, Nie Wan felt that this thing was perfect for Lan Xiangyuan as soon as she saw it.

This inexplicable intuition amused Nie Wan, but she still followed her heart and deliberately placed it at the very front of such props so that Lan Xiangyuan would see it at first glance when she received the props.

It was a little prank, I suppose.

After checking the remaining props one by one, Nie Wan frowned slightly, feeling that something was missing.
