Adventure: My Skills Evolve Infinitely

Unfortunately, Lin Mo was so focused on rushing to get revenge on the Black Water Snake that he didn’t notice these details.

He finally arrived before the Gold-Plated Silver door. Having been burned once before, Lin Mo immediately used [Rock Shield Technique] to summon a Rock Shield and walked forward.

Sure enough, a black tail whipped toward him the next moment.

’Trying that trick again!’

A fierce glint flashed in Lin Mo’s eyes. The Rock Shield in his hand blocked the attack. At the same time, the Fire Element rapidly gathered in his sword-free right hand, forming a Flaming Arrow that shot directly at the snake’s tail.

[Flaming Arrow]!

The sharp Arrow, burning hot, pierced straight through the Black Water Snake’s tail, leaving behind a red hole.

The Black Water Snake let out a mournful howl and spewed a cloud of Black Fog from its mouth, which rushed toward Lin Mo.

Lin Mo had anticipated this. He dodged to the side, evading the Black Fog. At the same time, the fiery light in his hand flared up again as another Flaming Arrow shot straight for the Black Water Snake’s head.

A Level 4.5 Demon was no small fry, after all. It wasn’t stupid enough to just let itself get hit like that.

The Black Water Snake twisted its head, narrowly dodging Lin Mo’s attack.

But the next moment, Lin Mo’s figure vanished from its sight.

’Where did he go?’

The Black Water Snake looked around, its eyes filled with confusion.

Shefilya stood outside the door, watching the scene with great interest.

The next moment, Lin Mo suddenly appeared at the Black Water Snake’s side. He swung the Black Sword in his hand, chopping at the massive snake head. The Black Water Snake reacted instantly, turning its head to snap and swallow Lin Mo whole.

But in that same instant, a deafening explosion roared once more. The inside of the Black Water Snake’s mouth was blasted and covered in wounds, and its head was dazed. For a moment, it couldn’t process what had just happened.

A figure then appeared behind it. A blood-red Sword Qi sliced through its head, completely severing the black snake head from its body.

’An easy win.’

Although a Level 4.5 Demon wasn’t much of a challenge for the current Lin Mo, a normal fight might not have ended so quickly or easily.

The Skill [Shadow Splitting] truly had a high skill ceiling.

This was just one of its simplest uses. As Lin Mo developed it further and its Skill Level increased, there would be even more versatile ways to use it.

If Lin Mo got his wish, and future evolutions of the Skill unlocked the ability to choose which shadow cast the skill, his tactical options would multiply even further.

As expected of an Epic-grade Skill, it was incredibly powerful.

[Blood Qi Blade] Skill Level +26

Unfortunately, it seemed that because the damage wasn’t dealt simultaneously, the Skill Level for only one Skill had increased.

This meant that the conditions for exploiting the Skill Level bug with [Shadow Splitting] were quite strict.

After gaining those 26 points of Skill Level, [Blood Qi Blade] was only four points away from leveling up.

As one of Lin Mo’s strongest single-target Skills, [Blood Qi Blade] should be one of his main priorities to train.

It was just that Lin Mo had too many Skills right now. He really couldn’t focus on all of them at once and could only train them one by one.

The Black Water Snake’s corpse was useful, of course. The most valuable parts were its eyes and Snake Gallbladder.

Lin Mo carefully carved out the eyes with his Short Knife. At the same time, Shefilya had already dissected the snake’s body and removed the Snake Gallbladder.

"Thanks."

Lin Mo took the Snake Gallbladder and thanked her instinctively.

Shefilya shook her head. "You don’t have to be so formal with me."

’Is she saying we’re familiar enough to be considered friends now?’

Lin Mo got up and started searching for the Treasure Chest in this secret chamber. Compared to the previous chambers, these later ones were generally well-lit, making the treasure hunt easier. Soon, Lin Mo found a slightly different silver Treasure Chest in a corner.

Just like the door to this chamber, the edges of the Treasure Chest were also adorned with some Gold.

’Surely there’s something good in this Treasure Chest, right?’

To be honest, although he had gotten a [Taunt] Skill book, Lin Mo was still a little disappointed with the rewards from the Secret Realm so far. They fell far short of his expectations.

’I hope this Treasure Chest isn’t another letdown.’

With that thought, Lin Mo opened the Treasure Chest. Inside was a blue reagent and a Scroll.

’A blue reagent?’

The last time Lin Mo entered this Secret Realm, he had obtained a red Flame Reagent. So, could this blue one be a frost reagent?

He tentatively touched it. Sure enough, he could feel a distinct chill from the bottle containing the reagent.

Lin Mo picked up the reagent and let out a small cry of surprise.

"Huh?"

Because a line of information had suddenly appeared before his eyes.

[Basic Frost Reagent]: An Alchemy Potion containing powerful Ice Element. Drinking it increases the user’s Ice Element Affinity by 13%.

It was just as Lin Mo had guessed; the blue reagent was a frost reagent.

What surprised Lin Mo was the information now displayed before his eyes.

He clearly remembered that the last time he was in this Secret Realm, he couldn’t identify Alchemy Potions. The Potion’s information wouldn’t appear for him, so he hadn’t even been able to determine what that Alchemy Potion did. It was only after he went to the Alchemy Shop in Roland Town and asked Granny Julian for help that he learned of the reagent’s effect.
