Chapter 10: Ten Consecutive Draws and One Purple Item

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In the mysterious starry sky filled with countless stars, a bright star streaked across the starry sky with a long flaming tail.

The star got closer, and so did the flames.

When the bright white light filled the entire interface, the star suddenly turned into a small white book in the next second with a few words written on it:

[Cultivation EXP book]

“Ahhhh! As expected, a single draw was not enough! What about the miracle?” Looking at the lowest-grade white card, Su Mo felt a bit dejected.

The feeling was something like when he had bought a new drink, but it did not taste as good as he had imagined.

“Well, it was a single draw. Even a purple item can only be a one-in-ten occurrence, let alone a gold item. Moreover, this draw was considered as filling the pool. After this, I only need to draw nine times to get a purple item! As long as I draw ninety-nine times, I’ll definitely get a gold item! It’s not a loss, certainly not,” Su Mo quickly comforted himself.

Looking at the cultivation EXP book that he had drawn, he wanted to try out its effects. So, he returned to the main interface and focused on the profession column.

[Do you want to use the cultivation EXP book to level up your sword saint profession?]

“Yes!” With a thought, the little white book turned into a mist of light and entered the profession column.

With that, the EXP bar of the sword saint profession moved forward a little.

At the same time, Su Mo felt that he had gained many professional insights.

In addition, he felt that his physical fitness had improved a little.

Even the speed at which he condensed his sword was slightly faster than before, and the sword that was formed was no longer as illusory as before.

“It seems that the improvement brought by cultivation EXP is all-around. Indeed, after all, it’s related to profession advancement. The difference between a level 2 sword saint and a level 1 sword saint is huge. Whether in terms of physical fitness or ability usage, the former would definitely be more powerful. For the same sword condensation technique, a level 2 sword saint would definitely be more powerful and dangerous than a level 1 sword saint,” Su Mo understood was even more pleased about the existence of the lottery interface.

With this panel, his cultivation speed would definitely be many times faster than that of other Transcendents.

It probably wouldn’t take long for him to catch up to the level 3 seniors in the team.

“Should I continue drawing?” Su Mo looked at the “80” on the top right corner of the interface and felt quite conflicted.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, lifespan was of no use, and it was better to seize the time to improve their current strength. After all, some might think that one year of lifespan would be enough. Did one need to worry about not being able to obtain more lifespan within a year?

However, Su Mo clearly knew that lifespan was a guarantee and a window to make mistakes.

For example, when he first met Lin Keke. If it wasn’t for the fact that his lifespan was 72 years, he might have been sucked dry on the spot. He definitely wouldn’t have lasted until help arrived.

Since he had become a Transcendent now, it meant that he would possibly meet stronger mirage demons.

Maintaining his lifespan at a certain value might save his life at a critical moment.

“Then let’s set 70 as the standard,” After thinking about it, Su Mo set a standard for himself:

If his lifespan was below 70, he wouldn’t touch it. However, anything above 70 could be used to draw away freely.

“My lifespan is now 80, so I can obviously draw ten in a row!” Su Mo rubbed his hands, his heart burning.

He opened the card draw interface.

Looking at the mysterious and boundless starry sky, he gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and clicked to draw ten times.

In the next second, ten bright meteors fell from the sky.

One of them was letting out a rich purple light, making Su Mo get excited just by looking at it.

“Purple! A purple star! This is a good sign! I wonder what skill it is!”

After a bright light flashed, the results of the card draw appeared on the interface.

[Cultivation EXP book] x5

[Skill EXP book] x4

[Skill: Instant Sword]

Su Mo ignored the nine boring white cards and focused on the purple card.

“Skill, instant sword,” He remembered that Chu Qingwu had mentioned this skill when she introduced the sword saint’s abilities.

Su Mo immediately absorbed the teleportation sword skill book.

In the next second, the comprehension of a brand new skill filled his mind.

He immediately understood what kind of ability it was.

The instant sword was a powerful and explosive sword technique.

Through teleportation, one could slash out a sword five meters away.

Even though it was powerful, it also consumed a lot of energy.

Judging from his current situation, he could only make one slash at most.

After he did, it would be time to run.

“Fortunately, I have the cultivation and skill EXP books,” Su Mo immediately started to add points.

All the cultivation EXP books were added to the sword saint profession since there were no other options anyway.

The skill EXP books were split in half, more specifically, two for the sword condensation technique and two for the instant sword technique.

Even though he had only added two EXP books to each sword technique, the progress bar had advanced even more than the profession bar to which he had added six EXP books.

Obviously, it was slower to level up in terms of one’s profession.

However, if he had enough skills, no one would know which would progress slower then.

At the same time, Su Mo found that he had been much improved.

Not only was his physical fitness strengthened in all aspects, but he had even become more familiar with the two skills that he had just awakened.

He casually condensed a sword, and his speed was faster than before.

The blade’s length and width had also increased slightly.

Now, it couldn’t be called rapier, but a thicker rapier.

The 40-meter-long sword seemed within reach.

As for the instant sword, the teleportation distance had increased from five meters to 5.1 meters.

Moreover, he would now be left with some energy left after performing the slash.

Perhaps he would be able to use the instant sword twice after strengthening it a few more times.

Su Mo was quite satisfied.

At this time, Chu Qingwu, who was in charge of entering the files, came in from outside.

Accompanied by the crisp sound of footsteps, her two firm and smooth long legs seemed to be walking on his heart.

“Your files have all been recorded. From now on, you are a member of the Furong team. This is the communication equipment, this is the defense equipment, and this is the combat equipment,” As she said this, Chu Qingwu passed him a mobile phone, a black bulletproof vest, and a sword hilt.

Su Mo took the items.

Chu Qingwu continued, “This mobile phone is specially made. It’s military grade and is dustproof, shockproof, and waterproof. Its battery life is exceptionally long, and the sim has already been installed. Not only can it be used for communication but also for positioning. In addition, there is an emergency button. On the phone, you’ll find an electronic document that lists the many things to take note of. You can read it more.”

Su Mo expressed his understanding. This was his working phone, then.

Then, he turned to look at the black bulletproof vest.

Chu Qingwu explained with a smile, “This is a bulletproof vest made of special materials. Not only is it light and convenient, but it also had extremely strong defensive capabilities. It can effectively defend against large-caliber bullets. Of course, our opponents are usually demons. Although they didn’t know how to shoot, their destructive power is sometimes more terrible than bullets. Wearing this bulletproof vest would allow you to resist the enemy’s attacks to a certain extent. Knowing how to use tools is the advantage of us humans.”

“What about this sword hilt?” Su Mo keenly sensed that something was off.

This sword hilt seemed to have some special function.

“I’m sure you can tell that this isn’t an ordinary hilt, but a sword,” Chu Qingwu smiled and said, “Try pressing the grip.”

Su Mo pressed down, and a sharp blade instantly shot out from the guard.

“To think it’s a retractable sword,” Su Mo’s eyes were filled with surprise.

A retractable sword was often the Tai Chi sword that uncles and aunts used while they exercised in the park.

Not only were they blunt, but they were also often in sections.

However, this sword was obviously different.

The 1.2-meter-long blade was a single entity, without any connections.

Both sides had been sharpened, and it felt sharper than a regular sword.

There seemed to be a special pattern hidden on the bright blade that emitted a dark blue luster.

Without waiting for Su Mo to ask further, Chu Qingwu smiled and replied, “This is an enchanted sword made by an enchanter. It has the three characteristics of sharpness, toughness, and flexibility. It’s the standard equipment of the sword saint profession. It’s only because there are too few people in your profession that you could get an enchanted weapon the moment you join. For example, common gunners like us wouldn’t possibly be equipped with an enchanted gun from the start. I only got this gun when I reached rank 3. The difference in treatment is really infuriating.”

Feeling Chu Qingwu’s deep resentment, Su Mo simply chuckled, overjoyed.

This was the benefit of joining a powerful official organization.

To think he would be equipped with such a powerful sword right from the start.

One had to know that even though he could form energy swords, the energy swords could only last for a limited time.

With this enchanted sword, his battle endurance would be greatly improved.

Moreover, this sword could be retracted, making it very convenient to carry around.

He wouldn’t have to be like in the novels where the main character had to carry a sword case wherever he went.

If he had to do that, he would probably die before he could even pull out his sword when he met a monster.

Su Mo collected his thoughts and immediately changed into the light bulletproof vest.

It was almost noon.

Xu Liushuang led Zhang Zhenyu and the others and came over to call them to eat.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Su Mo said hesitantly, “I was busy with the inauguration just now and almost forgot about business. There’s something I want to report. It’s about the fox demon we killed near the bar last night. She’s probably not the only heart-digging demon.”

“What did you say?”

Everyone was shocked by his words!
