Chapter 263: with translation of chapter title

Main text Chapter 263: Magic can still be used like this?

Teammates who went out to fight on the Zhan Chang and do missions haven't returned yet.

Xiao Feng opened the team chat group and chatted with them a few sentences.

Everyone said the outside is more fun, and for now they don't want to come back to cultivate.

Xiao Feng also enjoyed the quiet, with nothing to do, he cultivated magic on his own.

He took out the Book of Elements, flipped through some new magic array structures, and committed them to memory.

Afterwards he took out his divinity, using it as a medium to strengthen his perception of the surrounding elements, and proceeded to cultivate.

This time he cultivated wind-element magic.

With the impetus of his willpower, an elliptical wind-blade vortex formed around his body, countless tiny wind blades swirling around him, dancing nonstop.

Under the control of his willpower, the elements constantly changed form, combining into various wind-element magics that ravaged the surrounding air.

Plants and trees became innocent victims, occasionally being cut and severed by the stray wind blades.

Xiao Feng improved himself while learning a new self-developed skill.

After more than an hour, his willpower grew somewhat, and he successfully comprehended a new self-developed skill.

【Cyclone Armor】: Wind blade protects the body, reducing damage taken by half; deals damage equal to 10% of attack power to targets that touch it, lasting 15 seconds, cooldown 20 seconds.

This skill is much stronger than the Minor Wind Blade Technique; although its damage isn't high, it's very useful for defending against melee attackers.

The damage reduction effect cannot be amplified by talent; it is fixed at 50%.

By now, Xiao Feng has gradually figured out exactly how his Divine Might talent amplifies skills.

This talent's Ten Thousand Times amplification mainly works on aspects related to skill strength.

The most obvious is the damage effect, followed by the shield's defensive power.

Both are related to strength; after the Ten Thousand Times amplification, damage becomes terrifyingly high, and shield values become absurdly high.

And some support skills, such as Wind Spirit Bodyguard, Levitation Technique, Instant Lightning, etc., are basically unaffected.

Because these support skills have no relation to strength; they merely serve a mechanistic function.

The recently learned Cyclone Armor follows roughly the same principle: the cutting power of the wind blades can be amplified, and a single touch can be deadly.

However, when the wind blades spin, their weakening effect on other attacks remains unchanged, only able to reduce them by half.

Such is the mechanism; even the Divine Might talent cannot affect it.

After comprehending the new skill, Xiao Feng did not stop; he continued cultivating.

Time flowed slowly, and before he knew it, two hours had passed.

With a creak, the upstairs window was pushed open.

Dai Ni Si wrapped herself in a white blanket, poked half her body out, her hair disheveled bathed in sunlight, her whole person seeming to glow.

She shouted, "Hey, Xiao Feng warrior, do you have any clothes at home?"

Xiao Feng turned his head and saw Dai Ni Si in the sunlight, resembling an angel, and couldn't help but stare blankly.

He immediately replied, "There are some armor and equipment, but your level seems insufficient; you can't wear them."

Dai Ni Si is only level 73; the only equipment she can wear is the level-less God-Slaying Mage Robe, but that robe is bound, and he isn't sure if he can give it to someone else.

"Ah, then... I can only wait for the skirt to dry before I can wear it." Dai Ni Si said somewhat disappointedly, retracting back into the window.

Xiao Feng burst out laughing helplessly and asked, "You don't have a backpack? Don't you even have a change of clothes?"

Players have a built-in cleaning function that automatically cleans the body every 1 hour, requiring no bathing, and clothes never get dirty.

But NPCs are different; they are more like real people, and unless they are extremely strong, they need to do everything a normal person would need to do.

Dai Ni Si replied, "I'm very poor; when I came down from Shen Jie, I brought nothing."

Xiao Feng thought about it and felt that was true.

Due to rule restrictions, the amount of stuff one can bring down from Shen Jie is very little; even an Upper God like He Er Na only wears three divine items, and Dai Ni Si, being so weak, having a set of clothes to wear is already not bad.

"Come to think of it, you're a person from Shen Jie; why run off to Zhu Shen Da Lu for nothing? Just to do missions?" Xiao Feng asked.

Dai Ni Si replied, "Exactly, people in Shen Jie trade using divine power crystals, with no gold coins. To complete the ancestral god's legacy, I can only beg the Mother Goddess to send me to Zhu Shen Da Lu."

Divine power crystals are items that replenish divine essence power; they can also be used as currency in Shen Jie.

Xiao Feng smiled upon hearing that and said, "I can understand doing missions, but you're a divine offspring born in Shen Jie; how is your strength so weak?"

"What are you talking about! I'm obviously super strong; it's just that you guys are too abnormal, making me look stupid!" Dai Ni Si said indignantly.

"I don't see it." Xiao Feng scoffed rudely.

Level 73 mage, 270,000 HP, barely qualifies as an epic boss.

With this strength, he feels that even without magic, relying solely on his 1030 strength attribute, he could beat her to death with punch after punch!

"Damn it!"

Dai Ni Si puffed up in anger.

, sitting on the big bed in the room, fuming.

After a while, Xiao Feng shouted, "When your clothes are dry, come out; I'll take you to the city to buy some new clothes and make some money on the side."

"Good!" Upon hearing she could make money, Dai Ni Si immediately responded.

However, her clothes aren't dry yet this moment, so she can only wait a bit longer.

Dai Ni Si couldn't stay idle; sitting in the room was also boring.

So she moved a chair to sit by the window, leaned on the windowsill, and chatted idly with Xiao Feng downstairs.

"Xiao Feng warrior, your house is so huge, and you even have a hot spring bath inside; it looks so luxurious, how many gold coins did you spend to buy it?"

"No money needed; it's a reward from completing a mission."

"Ah? That's amazing!"

"Not bad; this isn't much, and there's an even better reward."

What is it?

I won't tell you.

Hmph, stingy!... Well, your place is so big, there are so many houses nearby, can you give me one?

Those are all my friends' houses; if you want to stay, just stay in this building of mine—I don't even sleep in the game myself.

Great, actually I just wanted this building; your bathtub is so comfortable to soak in, the bed is also very soft, I really like it~

Hmm... but you can't touch my other things; some are quest items, they're quite important.

I know, I'm not a thief—I won't steal your stuff!

While chatting idly, Xiao Feng opened the permissions of the Family Head Token, trying to set Dai Ni Si as family, so she could come and go freely.

I originally thought Dai Ni Si was an NPC, so she couldn't be set up.

I never expected that a quick try would make it work right away!

Dai Ni Si in the room exclaimed delightedly: 'Wow! I didn't know there was such a permission; I can directly teleport back from outside, Xiao Feng Warrior, you're awesome!'

This effect made Xiao Feng feel more and more that the system of Myriad Heavens is complex, with little difference between NPCs and players.

"Xiao Feng Warrior, I'm eager to go out and make money—can you use fire magic to dry my clothes?" Dai Ni Si asked eagerly.

Xiao Feng tilted his head.

Can fire magic be used like this?

"Of course! You're already in the Holy Domain, your control is definitely strong—I believe you can do it!" Dai Ni Si encouraged.

Xiao Feng thought the same; his magic control is now very strong, he probably won't burn her skirt.

Let's just try; worst case, I'll compensate her for one piece.
