Chapter 6: Successfully acquired SSS-level skills

The Roaring Wild Boars are mainly concentrated in the Wild Boar Forest.

It is a charging monster, and its speed is usually one to two times faster than that of ordinary players.

Compared to the level 1 Mutant Red-furred Rabbit, the level 3 Roaring Wild Boar will also actively Attack, and its Attack power is extremely high.

Once someone enters its Attack range, a Savage Charge will basically leave them with low health.

After encountering it, normal players won't even have time to run.

However, the Roaring Wild Boar also has a weakness: it cannot climb trees.

After entering the Wild Boar Forest, as long as one quickly moves onto a tree, they can easily pass through the Wild Boar Forest.

Of course, this method also has a drawback: it cannot cause damage to the Roaring Wild Boar.

However, this is not a problem for Gu Nan, as his target is not these Roaring Wild Boars anyway.

【You have entered the Wild Boar Forest. The monsters in this area are currently too high a level. Please pay attention to your safety.】

After entering the Wild Boar Forest, Gu Nan instantly felt himself enveloped by several killing intents.

Without the slightest hesitation, he flashed and jumped directly onto the nearest cypress tree.

Then, he looked down to see four or five Roaring Wild Boars had already rushed to the spot where Gu Nan had just been standing.

Upon discovering their target was missing, they circled the large tree in confusion, seemingly searching for Gu Nan.

That was close!

If he had been hit by four or five wild boars, he would probably have been sent back to town for free.

After adjusting his breathing, Gu Nan began to move through the forest.

After the Wild Boar Forest is Hanyang Plain.

The monsters here are generally dominated by wolf packs; once locked onto, it's basically death.

Fortunately, Gu Nan now has the blessings of Stealth and Windwalk, plus the Thief's professional talent which adds a 100% Stealth state.

Gu Nan has 20 seconds of Stealth time.

Once locked onto by a wolf pack, Gu Nan will quickly enter Stealth state, then use Windwalk to speed up his escape.

Such an operation is a great test of observation, sharpness, and reaction speed.

Even though Gu Nan knows a lot about Ten Thousand Races Continent, he still put in a lot of effort.

It took him a full two hours to get out of Hanyang Plain.

After Hanyang Plain is Fallen Dragon Mountain.

Fallen Dragon Cliff is located at the top of Fallen Dragon Mountain.

The entire Fallen Dragon Mountain is over 1,100 meters high, with steep terrain and numerous strange rocks.

Perhaps because the Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake is imprisoned here, deterred by the Ancient Divine Beast's pressure.

Within a five-kilometer radius of Fallen Dragon Mountain, there are no monsters.

This saved Gu Nan a lot of trouble; he only needed to reach the summit of Fallen Dragon Mountain.

Five hours later, Gu Nan, physically and mentally exhausted, ascended Fallen Dragon Mountain.

Looking around, the surroundings were all shrouded in mist, as if he were in a fairyland.

After a short rest, Gu Nan quickly found Fallen Dragon Cliff based on his memory.

Before Gu Nan could even get close, a terrifying pressure swept over him.

A low, long dragon's roar came from afar, deep and shocking, as if it could penetrate one's soul.

Immediately after, a bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky, illuminating the entire Fallen Dragon Mountain.

In that fleeting moment of light, a gigantic Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake slowly emerged.

Its body was long and slender, its scales shimmered with a cold light under the moonlight, and each scale seemed to contain endless killing intent.

The Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake's eyes glowed with a deep light, staring intently at Gu Nan.

Its body coiled in the air, like a silver giant dragon dancing in the night sky.

With the appearance of the Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake, the surrounding air seemed to freeze, and a powerful sense of pressure made it hard to breathe.

"It's been ten thousand years! Despicable humans! You fragile creatures, how dare you scheme against me!

I will slaughter all of you!!!"

The Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake's voice exploded in the air like thunder, carrying endless pressure and fear.

It opened its gaping maw, revealing sharp fangs, and saliva dripped from the corners of its mouth, forming disgusting viscous trails.

Its eyes gleamed with a greedy light, as if Gu Nan, standing before it, had already become a delicious meal in its mouth.

However, just as the Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake was about to rush to Gu Nan's side, a golden light descended from the sky, forming a golden giant wall two meters beside Gu Nan.

The Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake had no time to react, and its huge snake head directly crashed into the wall.

It let out a miserable cry.

Gu Nan knew that this was the Suppressing Ancient Barrier.

As long as he was outside the barrier, the Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake could not harm him.

Having understood all this, Gu Nan became much calmer.

He casually cast Insight.

【Monster Name】: Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake (Ancient Divine Beast)

【Monster level】: ???

【Health】: ???

【Mana】: ???

【Attack Power】: ???

【Defense Power】: ???

【speed】: ???

【Skills】: ???

【Description】: One of the Ancient Divine Beasts of the Ten Thousand Races Continent, revered as the "Heaven's Chosen, Earth's Essence." Its form is dragon-like and slender, its body covered in silver scales, shimmering with a cold and mysterious light. The Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake's eyes are as deep as the night sky, capable of perceiving all things in the world. Its appearance is often accompanied by strange phenomena such as lightning streaking across the night sky, sudden strong winds, and shaking mountains. It possesses powerful abilities to control wind and thunder, and traverse space and time.

Indeed, no information about the Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake could be found.

But it doesn't matter, his main purpose in coming here was not to see the Ancient Divine Beast Teng Snake's attributes.

So, he directly used Shadowless Hand.

"System Notification: Congratulations on successfully using Shadowless Hand on Ancient Divine Beast 【Teng Snake】, obtaining the SSS-grade skill book 【Soul-Devouring Poisonous Stinger】."

【Soul-Devouring Poisonous Stinger Lv1 (SSS-grade)】: Any Attack can apply one layer of Poisoned effect to the target, deducting 5 health points per second from the target for 60 seconds. This Poisoned effect ignores all defenses and also applies a healing-prohibition effect to targets in a Poisoned State, preventing them from being purified.

At the same time, targets in a Poisoned State have their movement speed reduced by 50% and Attack speed reduced by 50%.

Current stackable layers of Poisoned effect: 3.

Trait: Consuming different poisons can enhance the Poisoned effect.

Restricted Professions: Assassin, Thief

Gu Nan had obtained Soul-Devouring Poisonous Stinger in his previous life, so he naturally knew how powerful Soul-Devouring Poisonous Stinger was.

But even so, he still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

Damn it!

This skill is too abnormal!

Any Attack can apply one layer of Poisoned effect to the target.

It lasts for 60 seconds and can stack up to three layers of Poisoned.

This means that by continuously attacking the same target three times, he can fully stack the Poisoned effect.

Within the next minute, he can reduce the target's health by 900 points.

This is not the most terrifying part; the most terrifying part is that targets in a Poisoned State cannot be purified, and their Attack speed and movement speed are both halved.

This also means that the opponent's Attack effectiveness will be reduced by 30% compared to their full power.

More importantly, healing is prohibited while in a Poisoned State!

This means that targets attacked by him can only watch their health drop until they die!

Nima!

This skill... even at level 1, it's already this terrifying!

If it were maxed out, how heaven-defying would it be?

Moreover, this skill also has a trait: it can absorb and fuse various poisons.

This means that the more poisons he obtains later, the higher the Poisoned damage per second.

As long as the toxicity is high enough, Gu Nan doesn't need to consider Attack power at all; he can cause massive damage just by using Poisoned.
