Chapter 323 opens with Ba Shou, the second young master of the Xia family!
Reach out and touch the entrance to the Ash Zone.
The black halo surged and swirled, sucking Xia Lin in.
【Permissions effective! 】
When Xia Lin opened his eyes and entered the star-filled pre-war preparation space, the first thing he heard was these four big words.
[You have activated the Flash Blue Star Sequence 1 permission and located the Fraud Evil God. ]
[Note: Due to your insufficient authority, we are unable to accurately locate the location of the Deceitful Evil God. In this Ember Zone, the Ember Zone system will send you to a world where the power of the Deceitful Evil God must exist. Do you accept this? ]
"accept."
[Anchoring in the Embers area...]
【Anchoring completed! 】
[You are about to enter the racial heritage level ember area: Eight Guards! ]
The name sounds quite impressive... Unfortunately, Xia Lin couldn't see any valuable information from the two words "Yamori".
Don't think too much, just wait.
[It is detected that this ember zone is the third ember zone for your sequence ranking battle. 】
[The Eight Guardian Zone will have a certain assessment nature. Your reward may also be converted into ranking battle points. Do you accept it? ]
"accept."
There's nothing unacceptable.
There is no conflict between causing trouble for the Deceitful God and passing the third assessment in the Ashes Zone.
As for the conversion of rewards into ranking battle points... haha, Xia Lin hopes that all rewards in the future will be converted into ranking battle points.
The purchasing power of this thing is so strong that it is more valuable than most regular rewards.
[Unstable mutation takes effect! ]
The nine skills in the regular skill column changed rapidly, but after a quick look, Xia Lin chose not to change.
How can carefully matched skills be mutated at will?
After skipping the mutation, Xia Lin took action before the pre-war preparation space collapsed.
He took out three cards from his personal space and crushed them hard.
So such a voice was heard in the pre-war preparation space.
【You used a single-player mission card. 】
[Single-player mission card takes effect! ]
[This ember zone has been changed to a single-player ember zone. Any other ember zone walkers will not appear in this ember zone in any form. 】
This is an authority card opened from the God-given source, and the effect is as simple as described above.
At this moment, Xia Lin used it without hesitation, obviously not wanting his second contact with the fraudulent evil god to be interfered with by external forces and add unnecessary variables.
【You used a mission delay card. 】
[Task delay card takes effect! ]
[The time limit for the main mission in this Ember Zone has been greatly extended! ]
The mission delay card is an old friend...but Xia Lin has never used it before.
The last time we visited the Ashes of the Outer World was enough to prove how powerful this thing is and how great its benefits are.
Xia Lin opened several mission extension cards from the God-given source essence, enough for him to enjoy several ashen zones.
【You used an identity replacement card (high).】
The last one is the Identity Replacement Card (High) opened by Xia Lin.
This thing has both advantages and disadvantages...
It is difficult to explain the pros and cons of replacing identities and taking on causality in a few words.
At the moment Xia Lin was using it, but he was actually not sure what effect this thing would have, and whether it could help him in this game.
"But as long as the operation is correct, the effect of this card is generally positive."
[Identity Replacement Card (High) is effective! ]
[Since the Eight Guardian Jin District is a real Jin District, you do not know and cannot specify a specific Jin District native. ]
[This identity will be automatically assigned by the Ember system. 】
[Note: The identity assigned by the Ember Zone system will definitely bring you natural advantages and additional benefits, but please explore the specific situation yourself after entering the Ember Zone.]
[Specifying...]
【Designation completed! 】
[You will be given the initial identity, Xia Lin (same name as you). ]
[Xia Lin: Eight Sword Clan, the second son of the Seventh Sword Xia Family, now 13 years old.]
Xia Lin: “Ah!?”
No, 13 years old! ?
What's the situation at 13 years old! Is the body still not fully grown?!
But from this identity description, Xia Lin also got a lot of information about the Eight Guardian Jin District.
This seems to be a martial arts type ashes area.
“Not bad.”
After inheriting Black Star's skill set, Xia Lin is equivalent to half a warrior. The martial arts side of the Cinder area is compatible with him and should be considered his home field.
The reminder sound of the Ashes area continued to sound.
[No existence (regardless of level) can see through the replacement disguise provided by the identity replacement card! ]
[After inheriting the identity of Xia Lin (native), your skills, attributes, and some props will be sealed! ]
[You can only grow and become stronger using the identity of Xialin (native). ]
This was the same as Lin Xiantian’s experience, which was not beyond Xia Lin’s expectations.
[Special effect of Identity Replacement Card (High): After you complete certain tasks, you will be rewarded with some of your strength and some items unlocked. Please work hard.]
[Note: All the strength, wealth, and power you have gained as a Xialin (native) will be converted into racial values, basic attributes, or other optional rewards at a high rate after the end of this ember zone.]
After the restrictions, there are benefits.
Identity replacement cards have huge limitations.
After using it, Xia Lin is equivalent to a blank slate in this Jhin area, and everything needs to start from scratch.
However, as compensation, the identity replacement card must provide corresponding or even higher-level benefits.
The natural benefits of identity are only a small part, and the bulk of the benefits come from this "high conversion ratio".
But how high? Xia Lin thought of his old friend Lin Xiantian.
Lin Xiantian's identity replacement card can bring Lin Xiantian the protagonist's fate and the eleventh and twelfth level of immortal enlightenment.
The benefit is so huge that it is difficult to quantify.
Xia Lin's identity replacement card (high) is theoretically more powerful than the one used by Lin Xiantian. It even has special effects, and the rewards are likely to be better.
“It seems like there’s something to look forward to.”
"And I'm not using the Identity Replacement Card (High) for any reward. What's more important is that I need to use it to find clues to the Fraudulent Evil God."
The fraudulent evil god is named after fraud, which means that this guy is likely to be hiding behind the scenes and will not be easy to find.
The initial identity provided by the identity replacement card will bring great convenience to Xia Lin in this link.
As for the fact that his strength was sealed because of the identity replacement card, what should he do after encountering the fraud evil god...
"Anyway, He can't see through my disguise...which means the initiative is in my hands!"
The value of this initiative is immeasurable. In Xia Lin's opinion, it is probably worth it to bear the cost of having his strength sealed for it.
After the three types of authority cards are used up, the pre-war preparation phase is officially over.
The starlight flashed, dazzling Xia Lin's eyes.
A slight feeling of dizziness came over me.
When Xia Lin opened his eyes again, he had already appeared in the ash area called Yashou.
…
"Master, are you awake?"
Xia Lin heard the gentle voice and slowly opened his eyes.
All he saw was pure white, and the smell of disinfectant entered his mouth and nose, making Xia Lin sneeze uncomfortably.
There was a slight pain in the head, and all the information about the identity automatically appeared in Xia Lin's brain and was quickly digested.
Xia Lin then turned around and looked around.
Next to him, a beautiful woman in a white nurse uniform was asking about his condition with a concerned look and a gentle voice.
"Um."
Xia Lin spoke softly, his voice in the stage of voice change, corresponding to the age of 13.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Xia Lin shook his head gently: "No, everything is fine..."
After saying that, he turned around and said, "It's just that I injured my body by practicing too hastily and I was unconscious for a while, it's no big deal."
After that, he ignored the nurse's dissuasion, unplugged the dense tubes on his body, imitated Xia Lin's (native) tone, maintained Xia Lin's (native) cold temperament, and said lightly: "You go out first, let me be alone."
The nurse hesitated to speak, but finally retreated.
…
It was not until the nurse left and Xia Lin was the only one left in the spacious ward that he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's a good identity, and it's off to a good start."
Of course the identity is good.
From the memories of the original owner of the body, Xia Lin has already gained insight into the worldview of this world, and has also determined the weight of this identity - it is quite high! The Cinder District is named after the Eight Guardians.
The core is the so-called Eight Guardian Sword Clan!
Xia Lin is the second son of the Xia family, the seventh of the Eight Sword Guardians, and he has an older brother.
There are only these two heirs to the Xia family.
There is no dirty business within the family.
Brothers are friendly and humble, fathers are kind and mothers are loving.
The family relationship is quite normal...but the family circumstances are very abnormal.
Get out of bed and walk to the window.
Open the huge floor-to-ceiling curtains and look outside.
The outside world is lush with vegetation and rugged mountains. The Xia family sanatorium is located in such a beautiful environment. It has the highest standard of personnel and the highest standard of equipment and infrastructure, but it only serves the Xia family of four.
The Eight Sword Guardians are made up of eight ancient families guarding a huge secret.
It is said that the secret guarded by the Yasugano clan involves the survival of the entire world.
The Yasugano clan also gained amazing benefits from this mission.
This Ashes District has entered the modern era, similar to the era Xia Lin lived in before the time travel.
The Yamori Sword Clan is the existence hidden behind the World Government, and its influence spreads throughout the entire world. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Yamori Sword Clan is the king of the world.
"In fact, the world view is a bit like the fierce city, but without the fierce arena."
"Martial arts are widely spread in reality, and everyone in this Jin District is a martial artist. The power of the Yashou Sword Clan actually comes from the family's martial arts."
The martial arts circulated in the outside world are very different from the martial arts inherited from the Yasugano clan.
Strength brings power, power brings wealth.
Combined with the magic of time, this is how the Yasugano clan of today was formed.
A rustling sound suddenly occurred, causing Xia Lin to turn his head and look at the TV in the ward.
The TV turned on automatically, and lines of text appeared clearly in front of Xia Lin.
【Welcome to the Sea Selection Battlefield 3: Eight Guards. 】
【Note: This ember area is a real ember area.】
【Note: All kinds of permission cards have come into effect. 】
[The opening period of the Ember Zone: eight months. ]
[The extension card is effective. The opening time of this ember zone has been extended to 15 years! ]
Xia Lin nodded with satisfaction.
Fifteen years is good.
This body is only thirteen years old now, and will be only 28 in fifteen years, which is the peak of its age.
[The main quest has been released. ]
[Main quest: The mystery of Yashou. ]
[The Mystery of the Eight Guardians: Phase One Objective: Explore the secrets guarded by the Eight Guardian Sword Clan.]
[When the first stage is completed, the second stage goal will be issued based on your performance! ]
[Note: If you fail to uncover the mystery of the Eight Sword Clan within fifteen years, you will stay in this Ash Zone permanently and be deprived of your Ash Zone Walker status and all the power you once had! ]
From this perspective, this task probably isn't that difficult.
After all, Xia Lin’s identity is there.
If you still can't complete the first stage of the task after fifteen years, then in the evaluation of the Ashen Zone, you are incompetent, and you should not be an Ashen Zone Walker. Just live out your retirement in this Ashen Zone.
【The clearance mission was not triggered.】
[The side quest was not triggered. ]
[Identity mission has been triggered! ]
[Identity mission: restore glory. ]
[Restore Glory: The Xia family is a member of the Eight Guardian Sword Clan, but is now ranked seventh, with fewer members, and the head of the family, Xia Huangwei, also has an old injury. ]
[The seemingly prosperous Xia family is actually on the verge of collapse. As the second son of the Xia family, you are very anxious about this.]
Of course it’s urgent.
This injury was the result of Xia Lin's (the native) impatience.
Thirteen years old, just reached the age to practice.
But because he was in a hurry, Xia Lin (a native) did not lay a solid foundation, and he hurriedly practiced the family handed down Taitong Sword Classic. He managed to cultivate his blood and energy, and he was also able to get started in martial arts.
But is it such a simple matter to become possessed?
Even though all his powers were sealed, Xia Lin, with his martial arts experience gained from all kinds of martial arts, could clearly perceive that Xia Lin (the native)'s body was actually useless.
Because the groundwork was not laid well, this person's future martial arts foundation was ruined! "Also, this body looks strong, but his martial arts talent is just average, not as good as Wang Lie, and even worse than Bai Guang."
In other words, this native with the same name and surname as Xia Lin, after leaving this world, did not even have the qualifications to be a peripheral member of the Three Phases Gang...
"It doesn't matter. Who made you run into me?"
"I'll borrow your body and bear your karma."
"Restore glory? Easy!"
When Xia Lin thought about this, he suddenly felt a warm current rising in his heart.
Xia Lin's thoughts seemed to be in line with the wishes of the original owner of the body, and invisibly, there was a different kind of fusion of soul and flesh.
Don’t mention this, and don’t talk about the difficulty of the task.
The key is the reward for this mission, Xia Lin is determined to get it!
[Mission objective: Demonstrate strength at the Eight Sword Clan gathering one year later, revive the reputation of the Xia family, or improve the strength of the Xia family in other ways.]
[Penalty for mission failure: None.]
[Task Success Rewards: Depending on your performance, you will receive different amounts of unlocked power! ]
The biggest problem with the identity replacement card is that its power is sealed.
The Identity Replacement Card (High) gives the possibility of unlocking the game! Xia Lin can't miss this! As for how to deal with this identity task, Xia Lin said it was not difficult.
1. The identity replacement card sealed all of Xia Lin’s strength and most of his items, but the Jhin area did not do it to the end, and Xia Lin could still use some items.
After spending half an hour sorting them out, Xia Lin had a clear understanding of the cards in his hand.
"Strength, talent, race value, and physical fitness are all gone, but the attribute panel is still there... and it has become like this now..."
【Name: Xia Lin】
[Level: 1]
[Occupation: Warrior]
[Professional Talent: Martial Arts Entry (D-Level): You have just entered the martial arts world. There is a small amount of blood in your body, which can be used to attack or defend.]
[Racial value: 1]
[Basic Attributes: 6]
[Skill 1: Taitong Sword Classic (SS level) (Skill backfires, cannot be used). ]
Forehead……
You say Xialin (the natives) are weak, but they are not weak at all.
At the age of 13, he has the average physique of an adult male.
But if you say it's strong, it's really not that strong.
Level 1 professional, the only skill cannot be used yet.
Summary: This is just a kid-bro professional that can be handled by a strong adult.
But when Xialin comes, the spring of Xialin (aboriginals) has also arrived.
“Most of the props are no longer usable.”
"Including the foundation-level offensive and defensive props, and the most important cave for hiding soldiers!"
The soldier cave was sealed, and Xia Lin had no way to release Scarlett and the Bomb Boys.
"But some low-level elixirs and low-level items can be used."
This low level is a low level in Xia Lin's eyes.
In this ashes zone...the level is not low at all.
Take the lowest-grade healing pill in Xia Lin's personal space, for example. It was more than enough to heal the injuries on Xia Lin's (a native) body - he couldn't even take the whole pill, he had to scrape off the medicine crumbs, otherwise his body wouldn't be able to bear it.
"And secondly, the upper limit of the strength of this Cinder Zone... seems to be very low."
As the second son of the Xia family, Xia Lin has a broad vision.
He had also seen the scenes when his father took action, and every year the World Government would hold a martial arts tournament to allow the world's strongest men to make friends through martial arts.
"The last martial arts tournament champion's physical fitness seems to be just about to reach 1,000 points..."
"And the masters of the Yashou Sword Clan are generally stronger than him. For example, the attributes of my cheap dad are probably around 50,000 points."
Well, fifty thousand points...
This is the level of the top strong people in this world.
"So, I only need to improve the strength of this body to 50,000 within a year, and I will probably be able to complete the identity mission perfectly."
Is it difficult?
It’s not difficult.
The skills were sealed, but the understanding of all kinds of martial arts remained.
Memories, knowledge and vision will not disappear due to the effects of the Identity Replacement Card.
With the martial arts experience of the looted Black Star, Xia Lin has a lot of room to play in this ember zone! "It seems that the power level of this ember zone is not worthy of the name of a foundation-level ember zone."
"I didn't find any clues about the Deceitful God in the opening hints. I don't know what the relationship is between this Ashes Zone and the Deceitful God."
Muttering this in his mind, Xia Lin shook his head.
Fifteen years is long enough.
It is also enough for Xia Lin to slowly find his hunting target.
…
Standing in front of the floor-length mirror, Xia Lin looked at his thirteen-year-old body.
Although he was only thirteen years old, he was already 1.75 meters tall, with an oriental face, quite handsome, and overall, he looked 50% similar to Xia Lin's original appearance.
"good."
He nodded in satisfaction, but the injuries in his body seemed to be affected.
The blood was rising faintly, and Xia Lin tasted a hint of blood in his mouth.
He shook his head and stopped being narcissistic.
Xia Lin looked down at the cup of water and pills on the sink.
The pills are ordinary in texture, with a slight fragrance.
This is an SS-level immortal medicine called Baicao Huandan, which is the lowest-level medicine in Xia Lin's personal space.
Carefully scrape it with your fingernail to remove a little bit of medicine and blend it into the water.
Pick up the water cup and drink it all in one gulp. A heat flow will begin to flow in your body, quickly repairing the damage to your body caused by improper practice.
The warm and comfortable feeling lasted for a few seconds before it disappeared. Xia Lin sighed with satisfaction, mobilized the insignificant blood and qi in his body, and walked through a cycle of circulation. He found that all the hidden injuries were gone, and his physical condition was perfect! He nodded with satisfaction and put away the remaining pills.
This leftover medicine is still of great use.
"Someone, take me home."
Xia Lin said this after leaving the bathroom.
Ignoring the advice of the nurses and doctors, he took a plane with his bodyguards and returned home overnight.
…
The Xia family manor is located in the center of Shenjing City. It does not cover a large area, mainly because there are too few family members.
The family consists of parents, two sons and more than ten servants and bodyguards.
From the outside, this home does not seem to be worthy of being one of the Eight Guardian Sword Clans, and the interior decoration is mainly warm and cozy, not luxurious.
Xia Lin likes this kind of atmosphere.
It was already evening when Xia Lin returned home.
It was time for dinner and the family of four gathered at the dining table, just like a normal family of four.
The father was not very majestic and was chatting and laughing with his two sons.
This thin man named Xia Huangwei has a relationship with his two sons that is half father and half friend.
On the contrary, it is the mother Li Pingjuan who has the demeanor of the head of the family.
She grabbed Xia Lin's ear and gave him a lecture, saying that if he dared to run home before he recovered from his illness, she would break his legs.
Only after Xia Huangwei confirmed that Xia Lin was fine did Li Pingjuan let Xia Lin go.
Xia Lin deliberately made a grinning expression, and he seemed to be enjoying this kind of relationship.
He turned his head to look at his eldest brother, the eldest son of the Xia family: Xia Tian.
Xia Tian is twenty-one this year, and his professional level has reached level seven.
His talent far exceeds Xia Lin's, and he is also Xia Huangwei's key successor.
But in Xia Lin's memory, he knew that his eldest brother Xia Tian did not want to be the patriarch of one of the Eight Sword Clans. This kid preferred music, painting and other arts. He had a good talent for martial arts, but he was not obsessed with martial arts. However, because of the burden of the family, he had to work hard to do things he didn't like.
Xia Lin once heard the sound of guitar coming from Xia Tian's room in the dead of night.
Two words: professional.
Perhaps noticing Xia Lin's gaze, Xia Tian smiled at Xia Lin. Just as he was about to say something, Xia Huangwei suddenly started coughing.
The coughing was so violent and undying that the other three even put down their bowls and chopsticks, looking distressed but helpless.
Old injuries cannot be cured.
Xia Huangwei coughed for about a minute before clearing his throat and waving his hand, saying, "Eat, eat."
Xia Tian and Li Pingjuan then picked up their bowls and chopsticks, but the atmosphere at the table was a little depressing.
As the pillar of the Xia family and one of the strongest people in this world, Xia Huangwei's condition is worrying...
"By the way, Dad, this is for you."
Xia Lin spoke and took out a porcelain bottle.
The porcelain bottle contained the leftover medicine that Xia Lin had taken before.
Pushing the porcelain bottle in front of Xia Huangwei, Xia Lin chuckled and said, "I asked for this medicine specifically for you. With the monk's blessing, it will definitely work!"
Xia Huangwei smiled and shook his head.
But he still took the porcelain bottle, smelled it briefly, and took it after making sure it was non-toxic.
Given the relationship between these two fathers, Xia Huangwei would dare to take the medicine, regardless of whether it was useful or not, as long as it was not poisonous.
This is a reflection of trust and affection.
Seeing Xia Huangwei taking the medicine smoothly, Xia Lin felt relieved.
Identity tasks can be completed by improving the strength of the Xia family.
Helping Xia Huangwei solve his chronic illness is undoubtedly one of the solutions to this task.
