Chapter 871 - 703: All Professions Level 25
As Qin An’s thoughts settled, a line of text floated in the void before his eyes.
[Scholar +10]
"Occupational proficiency acceleration?"
This was the most important aspect.
For Qin An, a tenfold increase in proficiency for the Scholar profession was what surprised him the most.
Other things, in Qin An’s view, were not enough to shock him so much, only the improvement of proficiency through Golden Finger was what truly amazed him.
It seemed limited in number, but if it translated into a tenfold increase, the amount became extremely terrifying.
What Qin An lacked now was time.
If time were sufficient, he could raise the proficiency of his profession to a higher level and enhance his strength more quickly.
A tenfold increase in occupational proficiency meant he could reduce the required time by tenfold, and with time reduced tenfold, he could more quickly raise his proficiency to a higher level.
"No wonder Golden Finger told me that once we had no barriers, it would bring immense benefits." Qin An thought to himself, "This is not just a huge benefit, it’s practically a monumental advantage!"
No one could refuse a tenfold increase in proficiency.
He, of course, also knew why he was gaining this tenfold increase in proficiency.
At this moment, there was no longer any barrier between him and Golden Finger, for the first time truly belonging to him, so this tenfold increase in proficiency was extremely normal.
Qin An touched his chin and thought to himself, "Now there are still the professions of healer, dancer, array master, and pill master that haven’t reached the next level. I’ll train them to the next tier first, and then work on the Scholar profession."
"After raising the Scholar profession to another level, I can continue to enhance my realm."
Thinking of this, Qin An began practicing the dancer profession, which corresponded to Body Technique.
As for the healer profession, in a moment, he could go find Emperor Xuanwu to arrange the necessary procedures, which was a very simple task for him.
Then, Qin An immersed himself in the training of occupational proficiency.
As Qin An trained, time slipped away at a speed visible to the naked eye.
...
Over such a long period, in the entire realm, including anywhere in the Daqian Kingdom, there was a prolonged and genuine tranquility.
Even the Forbidden Area was no exception.
All who knew some internal information understood why this tranquility had arrived.
It was all because of Qin An, who was now the most renowned figure in the Daqian Kingdom.
They all knew that Qin An, in the Forbidden Area with extremely powerful means, severely injured the Celestial Demon General Envoy and killed him, and with a trend as sweeping as a gale sweeping away leaves, eradicated all the betrayers of the Forbidden Area.
To them, this was an inspiring battle, but no one was careless because everyone was waiting for the arrival of the Heavenly Demon.
But apart from training, they also kept an eye on the direction of the Imperial Palace, wanting to see Qin An’s movements.
Unfortunately, since returning to the Imperial Palace, Qin An had resumed a state of barely stepping out of the front door and not crossing the second gate.
This left everyone thoroughly puzzled.
But puzzlement aside, no one dared to disturb Qin An.
Those who knew a bit about Qin An’s character would only watch from afar, not daring to get close.
Aside from Qin An not showing his face, everything in the Daqian Kingdom functioned very normally, and everyone steadily progressed.
And just as everyone was diligently cultivating, an anomaly suddenly appeared in the Sea of Hope at that moment.
Since Qin An sealed the heavens and earth in the Sea of Hope, it had become incomparably peaceful, like an ordinary place.
But at this moment, the Sea of Hope suddenly emitted a slight unusual aura.
In the sky, an invisible and formless barrier seemed to open a crack finer than a hair strand.
And when the crack appeared, a figure slowly descended to the ground through it.
If one looked closely, they’d find that this figure, both in dress and demeanor, was completely different from others.
Moreover, in style and other aspects, this person didn’t belong to any place in the Daqian Kingdom.
His attire was one thing, but even his appearance and adornments were entirely different.
He had no flesh and blood, his whole body was made of mechanical construction.
Even his head was full of a metallic sheen.
His eyes gleamed with a red light like blood, causing those who looked at him to feel endless horror being born from within.
But the moment this robot landed on the ground, the crack in the sky instantly vanished.
He looked up at the blue sky, then shook his head slightly.
"This is all I can do, the powerful ones couldn’t come through, but a weak one like me squeezed in through this tiny gap, which isn’t bad. At least I can seize the opportunity to destroy this world."
"Our Mechanical Empire will surely get more of this world’s essence, and I, the Mechanical Emperor, will be the first to claim its essence."
Thinking of this, the mechanical man known as the Mechanical Emperor raised his hands and made a deep breathing gesture.
The surrounding air rapidly surged into his body, and the mechanical luster on him turned from dull to full.
"Such abundant power! This place is destined to be destroyed by my Mechanical Empire, yet fortunately I was the first to arrive here; others wouldn’t have managed as smoothly as I did."
As he spoke, he raised his right hand, and a huge opening suddenly appeared in his palm.
The moment the opening split, countless insects poured out from within.
If one looked closely, it would be evident that these insects were not made of flesh and blood but constructed like machines.
