Chapter 26: Re-entering the Game, A Name on the Rankings
Looking at the content of the system update, I was delighted to see that there's something new to play. After checking out the system update, I casually browsed the official website and then entered the game.
After logging in, I found myself still standing in front of the lower line. The old man who gave me a career change had been replaced by an NPC, and the old man was nowhere to be seen. Ah, I remember there was a system prompt before logging off.
System Prompt: Player Ao Tian has comprehended the Heavenly Way and obtained an SSS-level Cultivation Technique. The system rewards 300 prestige points. Please name your technique.
"Ah, SSS-level cultivation technique? This is too ridiculous! It seems that I unintentionally grasped it after listening to the old man's words. Looks like my luck isn't all good after all. Hehe." Ao Tian said with a foolish grin as he looked at the system prompt.
"Is!" Who would choose "isn't"?
System Prompt: Please name your Heart Method!
"What should I call it? Let's just call it Wu Wei Heart Method." At this time, Ao Tian was muttering to himself.
System Prompt: "Naming successful, please check skill bar for details."
I hastily opened the skill bar to see if this technique was what I had in mind.
Non-Action Heart Method (SSS level) Ultimate Heart Method (Unique)
Player's self-enlightenment is formed. Turning Heart Method increases attack power by 220%, defense by 100%, and all resistances by 100% for 10 minutes. Limited to three times a day, active skill.
This cow X's mental method is indeed worthy of being an SSS-level mental method. Although it can only be used once a day, it's a mental method that can decide the outcome when fighting BOSS. Wait, didn't the official website say that the enlightenment system has been opened? If I can unintentionally enlighten my mental method, then can't I also enlighten my skills? This game isn't about entering the game with one's mind and spirit, right? It's about using your brain to control the game. In that case, shouldn't there be no difference between this virtual body and a real body? If I can bring my real-life cultivation into the game, wouldn't I be invincible? So I decided to go verify it. If I succeed, it would undoubtedly be very helpful for me. If not, I won't lose anything either. Why not give it a try?
At this time I sat down on the ground. I started the Wu Wei Heart Method, thinking about the first form of the Wu Wei Heart Method's running skill, and indeed I heard the system prompt.
System Prompt: Congratulations to player Ao Tian for comprehending the essence of Wu Wei Xin Fa, successfully comprehending the skill "Wu Wei Fa Jue First Style: Xiao Yao Wu Wei". System rewards 100 prestige, please check the skill bar for details.
Haha, succeeded! Listening to the system prompt sound. At this time, my excitement can no longer be expressed in words.
Open the skill bar, and at this time, there is an additional skill under Wu Wei Heart Method.
Wú Wèi Fǎ Jué First Form: Xīao Wú Wèi Attack power increases by 500, dealing destructive blows to all objects in a straight line. Ultimate skill, singular, and unupgradable.
Carefree and Unrestrained is the first move of the Carefree Divine's cultivation technique. As a divine cultivation technique, it's naturally more powerful than others. In reality, it can instantly kill a Great Luo Golden Immortal, although in the game, due to various reasons, it can only unleash one percent of its power. Nevertheless, this is still considered an ultimate move, with an attack power of 500, which is comparable to that of a divine artifact.
Since the first formula can be used, then the second formula should also work. Since I learned that I already knew the second formula in the conscious space last time, I haven't looked at it until now. It's just right to take a look at the power of the second formula. So I sat again in the same way as before.
System Prompt: Congratulations to player Ao Tian for comprehending the essence of Wu Wei Xin Fa, successfully mastering the skill "Wu Wei Fa Jue Second Style: Carefree Wanderer". System reward: 100 reputation. Please check the skills bar for details.
The second formula of Wu Wei Fa: All living beings are free and at ease.
Increases attack power by 600, dealing destructive blows to all objects within a range of three meters in diameter. Ultimate skill, unique, and cannot be upgraded.
It seems that the second formula should be a range-based skill. Today's gain is not bad, successfully grasping two skills, which also guarantees my foothold in the game. Although I am not afraid of anyone in reality and can do as I please, it's different in the game. However, what makes me feel a bit depressed is that the two skills consume a lot of magic, and with my current magic, I can only barely use the second formula once. But thinking about it calmly, this is just a game, it will try to satisfy the player's needs and maintain balance. Being able to have such skills is already the system's tolerance. What else can I ask for? However, with my current abilities, even if I had the best ultimate skill, it would be useless. It seems that I need to hurry up and level up. But I heard that the system opened some kind of ranking list, let me take a look at the situation first. Silently thinking about the level ranking list, a leaderboard appeared in front of me.

Looking at the rankings, I felt a pang of frustration. So many people have changed jobs so quickly, and there's even a hidden profession now. It seems this game really does have its tigers and dragons hiding in wait. Looks like I need to step up my game or I'll fall off the rankings altogether. If Zixue found out, she'd laugh at me. Strange, why do I care so much about what Zixue thinks? Maybe... never mind, let's just look at the equipment rankings instead.

Looking at these two pieces of trash equipment, I felt a wave of discomfort. I went to the system store and used my last gold coins to buy a set of silver equipment. The system is really black-hearted, a set of silver equipment costs so much. After buying potions, I only had a few copper plates left on me. Let's take a look at the attributes of this equipment.
