Temple Language (Purple): Divine Power condensed from 50 Magic Points. Causes damage to the target using 240% of Attacking Power. It has a certain chance of causing chaos to the target’s Mana. Seals target’s Magic Skills for 10 seconds.

If this Skill is used on self and your comrades, the target’s HP will be restored by 180% of your Attacking Power. It comes with a chance to dispel one to three of the target’s negative debuffs. Cooldown: 1 minute

(Only Guardian Knights can learn this Skill.)

…

Skill Transformation Seal (Purple): Any Skill of equipment below the level of the Seal can be transformed into Skill Crystals. The effects of Skill Crystals are equivalent to Skill Books. After the transformation, the piece of equipment will disappear.

…

Temple Language’s 240% damage multiplier seemed to be similar to ordinary Purple Skills, but it came with an additional Mana Chaos effect, which was an excellent mental control ability.

It was not too bad for those in Physical Professions. To begin with, they did not have many Skills where Magic Points could be utilized. If those in Physical Professions were to be struck with this effect, it would be akin to being incapacitated for ten seconds.

However, the truly powerful effect was Temple Language’s second one, which could restore the player’s and his comrades’ HP.

‘Target’s HP is restored by 180% of one’s Attacking Power’ was an effect that many pure Healing Professions could not achieve in God Domain.

Also, with Liu Ming’s current Stats, using 180% of his Attacking Power would result in one’s HP being restored by 700 to 800 points, even if the Resolution Ring couldn’t increase it.

Liu Ming could truly resist enemies and heal himself with just that Skill.

The only thing that Liu Ming found a pity was that Temple Language’s two different forms shared the same cooldown. Thus, leaving Liu Ming with no choice but to use that Skill selectively.

If Temple Language made Liu Ming feel elated and conflicted, then the Skill Transformation Seal brought him complete surprise.

…

God Domain’s officials had already announced that only about 10% of the information on God Domain could be found on the official website. The remaining information would have to be discovered by the players.

Skill Transformation Seal happened to belong to the 90% remaining information since there were no clues about it at all on the internet. However, that did not stop Liu Ming from realizing how precious the Skill Transformation Seal was.

According to God Domain’s official statement, equipment that were Purple or above would generally have a certain probability of coming with additional Skills. The higher the grade, the higher the probability. The probability of equipment coming with additional Skills of the same grade was the highest.

However, no matter how good the Skills of the equipment were, the grade of the equipment itself was fixed. That also meant that the player would have to give up some equipment for higher Stats, no matter how reluctant the player may be.

However, the Skill Transformation Seal could transform the Skills on equipment into Skill Crystals. Thus, allowing the player to learn the Skills completely.

Although that would result in the loss of at least one piece of Purple equipment, the value of one Skill Book was several times greater than that of low-level Purple equipment.

In fact, Liu Ming even thought about all the low-level Purple equipment with Skills that he would acquire in the future when he saw the Skill Transformation Seal. He also developed thoughts about transforming them into Skill Crystals that he could use or sell for money.

However, Liu Ming quickly dismissed the idea. The rate of such items dropping was clearly lower than getting equipment of the same grade.

Even if he had extra Skill Transformation Seals, he would get more money from selling them than he would from selling the Skill Crystals obtained through it.

After calming himself down, Liu Ming took out the Bloodthirsty Berserking Hound King Sword that he had already eliminated and placed it on the Skill Transformation Seal.

At this moment, rays of purple light suddenly burst out of the Bloodthirsty Berserking Hound King Sword before flying towards the Skill Transformation Seal.

Soon, the last ray of purple light entered the Skill Transformation Seal, and the Bloodthirsty Berserking Hound King Sword disappeared from Liu Ming’s hand as well.

At this moment, Liu Ming finally looked at his Skill Transformation Seal that had changed greatly. Originally, the Skill Transformation Seal was similar to an embellished coat of arms, just thicker. However, it now looked like a polygonal crystal that emitted a purple glow.

No, it should now be called a Skill Crystal.

Skill Crystal (Berserking Slash) (Purple): One can acquire the Physical Skill, Berserking Slash, upon usage.

Continuous Berserking Slash: Continuously launch three slashes with 80% Attacking Power at the target, with each slash adding 30%, 60%, and 90% damage, respectively. Cooldown Duration: 1 minute.

…

The transformed Berserking Slash was exactly the same as before. However, Berserking Slash was now Liu Ming’s own Skill this time.

Liu Ming no longer had to dwell on the issue of updating his equipment anymore.

…

After defeating the group of Bear Gnomes, it was a straight road ahead.

Liu Ming and company soon arrived at Lotter City, which was the nearest main city to the novice village.

When Liu Ming passed through Lotter City’s high gates, a system announcement sounded.

[System Announcement (Nationwide): Congratulations, Adventurer Floating Cloud, you are the first to reach the main city. You will obtain additional rewards: 100 Gold Coins and 100 Reputation in Brilliance Camp.]

At the instant that the announcement sounded, the hundreds of thousands of players throughout the nation were instantly flabbergasted. Plenty of well-to-do players even switched to the national channel.

[Breezy Sword Rain: Damn it! Who is this Floating Cloud? I’m only Level 4, yet he’s already reached Level 10 and gone to the main city!]

[Bear That Loves Fish: Damn it! The commenter above me is a big shot too! I’m not even Level 3 yet.]

[Flying Above Grass: Great God Floating Cloud is impressive! You finished the Out-of-village Quest so quickly.]

…

[Possessed By Amazing God: This must be a bot. If this is not a bot, I’ll film a livestream of me eating poop!”

[Go To Hell: I’ve already taken a screenshot of the comment above. Get ready to film a livestream of you eating poop.]

[Hardworking Bee: The two comments above did not catch the main point. Right now, we should be getting Floating Cloud to show us the strategy of his quick leveling-up.]

[King Of Sharp Tongues: Someone is taking the moral high ground again. Floating Cloud discovered his own strategy. Why does he have to share it with you?]

…

[Tyrannical Emperor: Great God Floating Cloud, if you see this message, please add me at UID1000…]

…

The vast majority of players’ messages were meaningless comments that were made out of amazement. Some were purely provocative.

Of course, some were also like Tyrannical Emperor, leaving their UID on the national channel in a bid to discuss with Liu Ming to get him to join the guild.

If it was at the beginning of the game, Liu Ming would have been overjoyed to see a big guild being interested in him. However, Liu Ming was already ahead of them by a great margin. Hence, his mentality was naturally different.

Anyway, adding friends and sending private messages had to be done through the player’s UID on God Domain.

Now that Liu Ming’s UID had yet to be exposed, no amount of uproar would have any effect on Liu Ming.

Liu Ming casually took a few glances at the national channel before walking towards the Guild of Professions.

It was getting late, and after Liu Ming got ready for the profession change, he went offline to get some rest. He decided to fight again tomorrow.
