Woo ….
In the middle of the vast desert plains, a white line ran through the yellow plains, stretching to the endless horizon.
A silver car drove slowly on the white line. The sides of the car were engraved with silver patterns, looking unusually luxurious.
The car quickly drove to a flat area, the back of the car kicking up waves of sand, like a yellow tail.
From above, there were some small yellow balls on the flat area, arranged in a whirlpool shape.
The car slowly stopped in front of the outermost ball.
With the sound of the car door opening and closing, three young people got out of the car, two adults and a child.
The two adults looked different. One of them had red hair like fire, handsome face, like a playboy.
The other man was tall and strong, with dark purple hair, dark red eyes with a hint of coldness. One of his arms was crossed in front of his chest, with a cute little girl sitting on it.
"Where is this place?" The tall man was Garon, who left with Su Lin. His arm shook slightly, and Celine fell from his hand.
"Somewhere on the edge of the Takanrikona Desert. I'm not sure, I just followed my father's instructions to find this place." Su Lin shook his head. "Let's go, what I'm looking for is in the center."
He led the way to the center of the whirlpool.
Garon and Celine followed closely behind.
Following the gaps between the balls of the circular vortex formation, the three of them went straight in.
Garon occasionally touched the balls that passed by. They were cold and hard to the touch, very rough, and many beehive-like holes could be seen on the surface.
These balls were all two meters tall, dark yellow all over, and almost indistinguishable from the sand below.
The three of them walked to the center of the whirlpool. In the center stood the largest yellow ball, three meters tall.
Su Lin stood in front of the ball, as if he was searching for something. Soon, he pressed his palm lightly, and with a crack, a small round yellow stone slab was peeled off. It was only the size of a palm, revealing a deep black hole below.
He reached in and searched for a while, and gently took out something. It was a black bag.
He quickly opened the bag. There were only some yellow stones left inside, and nothing else.
"I didn't expect to still not find it." Su Lin sighed and turned around. "As expected of Duskdune Shura, he eliminated so many places and found this place with just a lie from my father."
Garon walked up from behind.
"What are you looking for?"
"The real Golden Sword Throne was hidden here by father." Su Lin explained. "It's a pity it's been taken away. His father had lost the bet with Duskdune Shura in every aspect. All that's left is this piece of black cloth that once covered the sword seat. "
Garon did not pay attention to the deeper meaning in Su Lin's words or any other situation. He suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared at the black bundle in Su Lin's hand.
He slowly reached out his hand and took the black bundle from Su Lin's hand. His action was no different from taking a casual look at it.
As soon as he touched the black cloth, a cool stream of air flowed from the bag into his fingers.
Garon's body trembled slightly, and he began to pull away the black cloth without batting an eyelid, as if he was examining it carefully.
The airflow from the black cloth flowed into his fingers, then along his palms, arms, chest, and finally into his brain.
In just a few seconds, the airflow on the black cloth suddenly weakened and disappeared.
The fabric was scorching hot from the desert temperature, and he could feel it on his hands.
"Let me see." Celine shouted from the side.
Garon casually threw the black cloth to her. He seemed to hear Su Lin say something again, but he could not hear clearly. His attention was focused on the attribute pane at the bottom of his vision.
'Strength 2.64. Agility 1.22. Vitality 2.15. Intelligence 1.53. Potential 112%. '
Potential 112%!
"As expected … as expected, it's potential!" Garon was pleasantly surprised. "Finally! There's finally a new attribute point! "
It had been too long since he received a new attribute point. He could not even remember when was the last time he added a point. In this period of time, his improvement was all due to the training of Secret Techniques.
"Garon, Garon? …" Su Lin's voice came from beside his ear.
Garon came back to his senses, and saw Su Lin looking at him with a puzzled expression.
"Sorry, I was distracted. I was just thinking about something."
"So are you planning to go back to Huaishan or …?"
"I suddenly changed my mind." Garon said in a low voice, "I'll go with you to track Duskdune Shura."
"Oh?" Su Lin was slightly surprised.
"Let's go, let's go back." Garon turned and walked towards the car.
Ignoring what Celine and Su Lin thought, he got into the car and leaned back against the seat. He closed his eyes as if he was taking a nap, but in reality, he was fully focused on the attribute pane and skill pane.
His current situation was clear at a glance.
'Strength 2.64. Agility 1.22. Vitality 2.15. Intelligence 1.53. Potential 112%.
Secret Techniques — —
Mammoth Mutation: Explosive (Top Level) Skin Hardening Level 1 (Iron Body), Blood Stabilization Level 1 (Boulder Technique).
Dark Crimson Technique: Level 1 (Total of 4 levels). '
"Now there are a few options. First, increase the effect level of the Mammoth Mutation Secret Technique. Iron Body and Boulder Technique are both beginner level, so they can be upgraded to level 1. Also, upgrading them will increase the overall effect of the Mammoth Secret Technique, but I don't know the specific effect."
"Then, upgrade the Dark Crimson Technique from beginner level to beginner level 1, which only requires one attribute point. But, is it worth it to spend this little attribute point? "
He hesitated.
There were a few mysterious symbols behind the skill pane, which represented the attribute points needed to forcefully upgrade the skill.
'Attribute points can be used to forcefully upgrade low-level skills by one level, mid-level skills by two points, and high-level skills by five points. There are also requirements to learn and upgrade the skill. The inability to upgrade may be due to insufficient information. '
Back then, his Mammoth Secret Technique was assisted by the paper ball that was soaked in the potion, and later on, he also had the help of his teacher Fei Baiyun's pills. Otherwise, if he wanted to upgrade it, he would have to train step by step or add points.
"Training in Secret Techniques is really difficult …" Garon suddenly let out a long sigh. Even with his talent and conditions, he felt that it was difficult to improve his Secret Techniques, let alone other martial artists.
Most martial artists were the same. Even if they were talented and trained hard for ten or twenty years and finally mastered a Secret Technique, they would still be unable to withstand a single blow from a firearm. This kind of feeling and bitterness could only be understood by those martial artists who trained hard.
Su Lin and Celine also got into the car. The car slowly started, turned a corner, and drove back the way they came.
The three people in the car did not speak.
Garon had been thinking about which aspect to add points to. This attribute point was hard to get, and compared to before, when it was easy to get attributes, it was like heaven and earth.
Attribute points were easy at first, but then it became difficult. When the body was resistant to most of the Antiques of Tragedy, it would be harder to get attributes easily. Unfortunately, he realized it too late.
After thinking for a while, Garon's gaze finally fell on Agility.
So far, he had felt that his Body Hardening Technique's peak defense was enough, but because his speed could not keep up with others, he could only take it head-on most of the time.
In his martial arts path, the most important was strength and vitality, followed by Agility and Intelligence.
"My defense is enough for now. Even Duskdune Shura's Dragon Gate can't do much damage to me without opening the fourth gate. Then the most important thing is to add points to Agility and Intelligence. If I can't keep up with Agility, I will always be in a position where I can't keep up with the enemy. The increase in Intelligence will also be beneficial to my control of the situation. But for now, it's better to increase my actual strength. "
Looking at this hard-earned attribute point, he finally made up his mind and fixed his gaze on Agility.
In the attribute pane, the value of Agility slowly changed from 1.22 to 1.52.
"Huh? Attribute points are back to 0.3 at once? "Garon was slightly surprised. He immediately noticed that with the increase in Agility, his strength increased as well, from 2.64 to 2.66.
Just as he finished adding the attribute, Garon felt as if his body was about to float. Obviously, the increase in Agility was too large.
For a Grandmaster of Combat like Garon who had precise control of his body, adding 0.3 at once to Agility was a huge improvement.
He closed his eyes and felt the changes in his body.
Originally, he had planned to add some points to Intelligence. After all, the increase in Intelligence would have a subtle effect on all aspects. However, he gave up in the end. According to his previous analysis, the Intelligence attribute could provide a comprehensive increase in comprehension, analysis, and memory. But for him, as long as he met the attribute requirements, he could quickly grasp the basics of knowledge, so this wasn't very important.
Intelligence was like martial arts skills, it was indispensable, but it was only useful when the difference in strength wasn't too big. Under absolute strength, any skill or strategy would be useless.
After all, the more subtle a plan was, the more it needed to be connected to each other. If one link was wrong, all the effort would be wasted.
Most importantly, he wasn't pursuing victory through scheming, but the true goal of martial arts. This was also the true reason why he loved martial arts. The goal from his previous life on Earth was to break through human limits and achieve evolution.
In martial arts, other than the goal of killing, the other goal was to break through the limits of the body and achieve evolution. This was also the goal of many Grandmasters of Combat in this world.
Garon familiarized himself with the changes in his body. He stretched out his fist, gently opened it, clenched it, and repeated it repeatedly.
From the teachings of Fei Baiyun, Farak, and the Grand Senior Sister, he became more and more determined to achieve this goal.
The car slowly turned, and the whirlpool formation behind them went further and further away until it disappeared into the horizon.
On the right side of the road ahead, a white car appeared in the distance. The two goldfish-eye light bulbs reflected the dazzling sunlight. A man stood beside the car. He was wearing a white cloak and wrapped himself up like an Arabian. He was lying on the hood of the car, repairing it. Black smoke kept coming out of the car, and there was a strange creaking sound from time to time.
Su Lin drove the car slowly past the bearded man.
Outside the window on the right, a group of camels carrying goods could be vaguely seen in the distance. They were crossing the sand dunes and heading in the opposite direction. A few dark-skinned people rode on the camels, swaying as they moved forward. A gentle breeze blew past, bringing with it the faint sound of camel bells.
In the car, the three of them quietly admired the scenery outside.
Under the sunlight, the endless yellow desert gave people the illusion that it was fine and smooth, just like fine porcelain.
Su Lin slowly slowed down the car, and the sound of the engine became much softer.
Pa.
A small gray shadow stepped on the window and quickly jumped past. From the right to the left, it landed on the sand on the left and quickly ran away.
After it ran far away, the three of them could see clearly that it was a small animal that looked like a cat. It looked like a kitten with rabbit ears, and its whole body was covered in gray fur. Compared to a cat, its ears were much bigger and longer, and they kept swaying back and forth.
This little guy squinted its eyes as it ran, and its four short little legs kept alternating. It was actually very stable.
"Big-eared Fox. A common small animal. "Su Lin was speechless as he looked at the four small palm prints left on the car window.
"We just entered the desert, right? I didn't expect to see a big-eared fox already," Celine said emotionally.
