Xu Feng is still a low-level apostle now. There are many ways to improve his mental strength. Once he reaches level four and becomes a mid-level apostle, many methods that are effective for low-level apostles in improving attributes will no longer be usable.

However, for the skills you have mastered, if they have the effect of improving attributes, they will not be subject to level restrictions.

After mastering the art of soul-forging, Xu Feng's range of spiritual awareness also became much larger, from half a meter to three meters.

Zhang Hong had already left Yanda one step ahead of schedule because of his failure in the audition. Although Xu Feng had made it to the qualifying round, his life at Yanda was still the same as before. Except for eating in the cafeteria, he spent the rest of his time practicing in his personal secret realm.

In addition to the soul-tempering technique, Xu Feng's fundamental method is also about to be upgraded, which Xu Feng is looking forward to.

[A new month has arrived, and it's time for you to collect taxes from the secret realm! Do you want to collect taxes from the secret realm for the previous month? Yes/No. If you select "No", the taxes will be accumulated to the next month. ]

After obtaining a portable secret realm, any resources in the secret realm will become part of the tax revenue. If the secret realm is in tatters and has nothing in it, you can still receive some coins.

Xu Feng's portable secret realm has been upgraded to level 2, which is rich in resources. Previously, due to the upgrade of the secret realm, taxes could not be collected for several months. Now, taxes can finally be collected.

"Start collecting taxes!" Xu Feng stood up and said silently in his heart.

After a moment, the entire secret realm was covered with a faint glow, and rays of golden light flew up from every corner of the secret realm and converged towards where Xu Feng was.

Thirty energy crystal cores produced by water monsters!

A Yinhuai spiritual fruit of unknown properties!

One thousand kilograms of purple jade grapes!

A chance to use the Sacrifice Altar for free!

Three ghost-faced clam pearls! Two Yin-attribute herbs! A five-meter-long fluorescent spider silk! A beast cub of ordinary quality!

…

Countless resources, emitting a faint glow, filled Xu Feng's surroundings.

Originally, only ten water monster energy crystal cores could be produced per month. However, due to the increase in the level of the secret realm and the increasing number of water monsters, the output of energy crystal cores also increased to thirty.

If these thirty energy crystal cores were sold, they would bring in several million in revenue. However, these crystal cores can still help Xu Feng improve his skills, so Xu Feng plans to use them himself and is not planning to sell them.

Only after he is promoted to level four and these crystal cores that are only useful to low-level apostles have no effect on him, will Xu Feng consider selling them.

After using up all thirty energy crystal cores, Xu Feng's level was raised to 68% of level three. He only needed to clear two or three more level three secret realms to reach the peak of level three and could try to break through.

"Increase physical dodge by 1%!"

Physical dodge and spell dodge were attributes that all secret realm apostles desired to obtain in the previous life. Even though Xu Feng became a high-level apostle in his previous life, he had never obtained these two attributes. Unexpectedly, he actually obtained one of them today by eating the Yinhuai Spirit Fruit.

"1% is a bit too low. I need to find a way to increase this attribute. At least it should be increased to around 30% so that it can be reflected in battle." Xu Feng thought to himself.

Xu Feng could not finish eating a thousand kilograms of purple jade grapes by himself. He had to keep some and sell most of the rest. This kind of spiritual fruit has always been in short supply in the market and there is no problem selling it. Xu Feng does not even want to sell it. He wants to recruit immigrant winemakers in the secret realm to make these purple jade grapes into wine.

Xu Feng remembered that there was a secret place with a tavern inside. An old man would come to the tavern every day to drink two taels of wine, rain or shine. The old man looked very destitute, but he was actually a royal winemaker who specialized in brewing fine wine for the emperor. It was only because he was involved in a secret case that he was forced to leave the capital, hide his identity, and live in this remote town.

You can receive the entry-level quest to become a brewer from this old man, and you can also receive a hidden quest. It is said that by completing the hidden quest, you can get a holy-level equipment.

In the previous life, there was an apostle with good fortune. He originally planned to take on an entry-level mission as a winemaker, but unexpectedly received a hidden mission. Because the hidden mission was too difficult, he had to post a request for help on the apostle forum, which also led to the exposure of the hidden identity of the royal winemaker.

In everyone's eyes, this is just a task NPC, but in the real world, an apostle who is a hotel owner, suddenly had an idea. He stayed in this secret realm for more than a month and successfully raised the intimacy of the royal winemaker to the maximum value. Finally, he successfully recruited him and put him into his own secret realm. Later, because of the help of the royal winemaker, the apostle's hotel business became better and better. This incident was also regarded as a legendary story and spread among the apostles in the secret realm.

Xu Feng had not paid attention to this royal winemaker at first. After all, he had no other skills except making wine. But ever since he acquired these ten acres of purple jade grapes, Xu Feng had been keeping his eye on this royal winemaker.

It’s a pity that it will take at least half a year for the secret realm to open, and it is also a high-level martial arts secret realm that requires at least mid-level apostles to enter. There is no way to recruit him for the time being, so he can only be put aside for the time being.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"So many purple jade grapes can be sold for at least five hundred taels of gold, which can activate one of my curse skills!" Xu Feng said to himself as he looked at the baskets of purple jade grapes.

The free altar sacrifice opportunity is only available after the secret realm is upgraded to level 2. You can start a sacrifice without any sacrifices, but what items you can get is completely random.

As for the spider silk, herbs and pearls mentioned later, they are all alchemical and forging materials. Except for the fluorescent spider silk, which can be saved and used to make a fluorescent cloak when enough is saved, and then sold for more money, the herbs and pearls can be sold directly.

A young animal of ordinary quality, it looked like a wild boar, pink and cute, but such a pet could not be sold at a high price, so Xu Feng released it directly, allowing it to return to the Beast Forest.

There should have been tons of ore, but unfortunately Xu Feng raised a few sandworms, and all the ore had become food for the sandworms and could not be sold.

After collecting the tax this time, Xu Feng looked towards the forest farther away. There were ancient trees over a thousand years old there. Each tree was priceless. It was a pity that these ancient trees did not pay any taxes in the secret realm with him. This made Xu Feng a little dissatisfied.

"Forget it, just keep it for now. It will be useful sooner or later." After pondering for a moment, Xu Feng shook his head helplessly.
