"Huff!"
Amidst the ethereal white mist, Xiao Han leisurely enjoyed the soothing effect of the spring water. Feeling light and refreshed, he felt as if he had ascended to heaven under the automatic cleansing of the magical spring.
Enjoy soaking in the hot spring water while summoning rewards for completing the mission.
In the void, several books radiating a crystalline glow floated, their magical patterns drawing Xiao Han's expectant gaze.
Item: Skill Book
Grade: Silver
Introduction: A divine skill that upgrades skill levels, you read that right... This is something that supplements knowledge and strengthens skills.
Feature 1: 100% chance to unlock a skill tier and increase its level by one.
[Ding! Your skill book has arrived! Please give us a five-star review and pay in full at once! (???)]
Xiao Han: "..."
This is a little different from the skill book I imagined...
Life's journey is bound to encounter misfortune, but the resilient little fox will always choose to face it head-on.
"Ding, a skill book has been used. Please select the skill you wish to enhance."
Xiao Han was taken aback when a skill book transformed into mysterious runes and disappeared into his chest.
"Then let's upgrade [Fire Control]."
Xiao Han said calmly, "The [Fire Control Technique] is a skill that allows one to control demonic flames. However, he was unable to further control the demonic flames that erupted when he was at the Silver Rank. Perhaps it was because the [Fire Control Technique], which was still at the Bronze Rank, was too weak."
"Ding, enhancement successful."
Xiao Han opened the character interface and saw the words "[Fire Control Technique] 13".
Seeing this, Xiao Han paused for a moment, then shoved the two skill books into his chest and upgraded [Fire Control Technique] to the maximum level.
"Ding, advancement failed. [Fire Control] => [Fire Control] 13"
The notification sound from the Sand Sculpture System startled Xiao Han.
There's a chance of failing when you try to advance, and then you lose two skill books?
That's too cruel!
Xiao Han immediately became displeased.
Xiao Han took out a clover that looked like ice grass from his wristband and swallowed it.
"Ding, you have consumed a lucky clover. Your luck value has increased by 1."
...
"Ding! Your luck stat has reached its maximum!"
"Ding, advancement successful, [Fire Control Technique] => [Fire Control Technique]"
"Ding, advancement successful! [Demon Eye] => [Crimson Demon Eye]"
"Ding, advancement successful! [Bone Removal] => [Bone Burst]"
"Ding, advancement successful, [Steal] => [Steal]"
"Ding, advancement successful! [Enhancement Spell] => [Divine Enhancement Spell]"
Through cheating-like methods, Xiao Han achieved his goal, and his five skills were transformed to a new level.
The names of [Fire Control] and [Steal] remain unchanged, but their effects have been greatly improved.
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Han summoned twenty-four flaming crossbows, doubling the number.
He could even solidify the flames, allowing him to break through the barrier between reality and illusion once he embarks on the golden path.
With a swift grasp, the dazzling brilliance cascaded down like a waterfall.
The ability to select one target for theft and then choose another is a significant breakthrough in quality.
Strengthen your skills to the maximum level, and the quantitative change will lead to the qualitative change, thereby enabling you to learn new skills.
This is the true purpose of skill books.
However, the fact that [stealing] requires four skill books made Xiao Han take another look.
This is a divine skill that can make you rich. I've used this skill quite a bit when fighting against Silver-level experts.

The Frail and Delicate Demon King
Xiao Han tried to enhance the last two skill books, [The Lament of the God of Calamity], but could not because its rank was unknown.
However, Xiao Han gave him [Piercing Flame] and [Multiple Slashes] to check the number of skill books required for the next level.
After some experimentation, Xiao Han managed to figure out the pattern of the skill books.
The more refined the skill, the more skill books it requires; and advanced skills take it to the next level.
Overall, skill books are a consumable item.
If there are plenty of lucky clover, they are still quite valuable to Xiao Han.
If it weren't for the fact that the basic skills he started with were very useful, Xiao Han wouldn't mind carrying out the solo plan, which was to use skill books to create a gold-tier extraordinary skill.
"Click!"
Suddenly, a slender and petite figure flashed past the crystal door. The door was pushed open, and a blonde loli girl, wearing only a pink bathrobe and exuding a cool and aloof aura, stepped into the bathroom.
A misty haze hangs in the air, flower buds droop, and dewdrops, carrying a floral fragrance, fall into the magic spring, releasing a delicate, jasmine-like scent.
Xiao Han secretly increased his vigilance, a layer of crystal-like, blood-red light appearing in his deep eyes.
Skill: [Crimson Demon Eye] (Premium)
Grade: Bronze
Introduction: The demonic flames of the endless, desolate sky surged forth, shaking the Dragon Gate at the peak of the starry sky and causing it to collapse. A pair of demon king's eyes were forged from the souls of the Three Gods of Life... Just something I made up, don't take it seriously.
Trait 1: The eyes contain the Demon King's original power, causing unimaginable mental attacks to witnesses, and increasing majesty by 20%.
Feature 2: Broad vision, with a certain chance to unleash the potential of the [Ruler] sequence. Wherever the gaze falls, it becomes the land of the king!
Feature 3: With the ability to establish a positive relationship, one can clearly distinguish between the loyal and the treacherous.
[Um...excuse me, could I take this skill back...?]
The judgmental gaze, revealing an invisible force, tore through the mist and landed on the wolf ears of the girl in the bathrobe.
Xiao Han was taken aback, his eyes revealing a curious look.
Werewolf?
His newly recruited subordinates include werewolves, but because of the buried sacred tree, he has not yet come into contact with them.
But what intrigued him even more was the string of numbers that appeared on the girl's wolf ears.
Affection level: +5 (shy)
"【Crimson Demon Eyes】's third characteristic is that it can display the target's level of affection for me in this way. It's really... awesome."
With this passive skill, if an enemy attacks, you can plan ahead, but you might end up getting yourself into a sewer and writing a drifting story.
In Xiao Han's mind, [Crimson Demon Eye] had been elevated to the same level as [Steal] as a divine skill.
The ultimate reconnaissance skill: [Crimson Demon Eyes].
“My lord, I am Anna Karenina, daughter of Black Fang, and I have come to serve you.”
Anna said stiffly, her pretty face cold, like an iceberg.
"A massage girl at a bathhouse? But you're too young..."
Lying on the bathtub, Xiao Han exclaimed in astonishment, "Could it be that the boss has some inexplicable confidence in the child laborer's skills?"
