Chapter 8: Beginning to level
Grass Eating Wolf? Feng Xiao rolled his eyes, "There truly are all kinds of things in this world. But, even if you're a grass eating buddha, this young master will still have to kill you!" He brandished the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand to chop down at the closest white wolf.
-125, -122.
The white wolf did not have a high defense, so it did not even react before it was defeated by Feng Xiao in just two slices. It dropped a red potion and a few copper coins. The pitiful white wolf did not understand why someone would attack it when it was just sitting on the grass minding its own business.
Small Red Potions:
Use Requirements: None
Recovers 100 HP instantly, 10 second cooldown.
"It was taken care of in two slashes?" Feng Xiao curled his lip in disdain. But he completely forgot that the Xuanyuan Sword's attack power far exceeded his level. Normal players would find it hard to have over 100 even at level 10.
Seeing their companion being attacked, the nearby two white wolves gave an "Ao ao" cry as they charged over. Feng Xiao faced them by brandishing his sword forward.
-122. The wolf that had been hurt immediately counter attacked with its claw. Feng Xiao did not dodge, he wanted to see just how strong the wolf's attack was.
With a "peng", the wolf's claw fiercely fell onto Feng Xiao's body. A red -21 figure appeared.
Feng Xiao was scared, "It seems like my defense is still too weak." He didn't dare allow the white wolf to attack him as it pleased. He had not bought any red potions in the Beginner Village since he had no money, so other than the Small Red Potion that was dropped, he did not have the supplies necessary for travelling out.
Feng Xiao slashed out to defeat the wolf in front of him. The other wolf gave an angry howl and then tried to bite him. Feng Xiao jumped back to avoid its attack and then he quickly slashed out, landing a heavy blow on the white wolf.

-248. His high luck value allowed him to land a critical attack which doubled the damage. The white wolf unwillingly turned into a corpse as it dropped a blue potion.
Small Magic Potion:

Recovers 100 MP instantly, 10 second cooldown.
"Ding, congratulations to player Wind Spirit for reaching level 1. HP+20, MP+10, Strength+1, Vitality+1, Agility+1, Intelligence+1. You have 5 free stat points to assign."
The experience from defeating three level 5 monsters added together was enough to let Feng Xiao immediately gain a level.
When a player levels up, they gained 5 free stat points which they could assign to any of the four main stats. When a physical class job levels up, they gained 20 HP and 10 MP. For a magical class job, they gained 20 MP and 10 HP every level.
Feng Xiao opened the status window and distributed 4 points into Strength and 1 point into Vitality. With the Xuanyuan Sword, it was already decided that he would become a Warrior. Warrior required strength, but they couldn't be lacking in vitality. Adding in the 4 stat points he gained from his passive skill every time, Feng Xiao would be gaining 5 Strength, 2 Vitality, 1 Agility, and 1 Intelligence every level.
After adding his stat points, Feng Xiao quickly rushed for his next goal.
-138. After adding 5 points into Strength, Feng Xiao's attack power had obviously increased.
The white wolf that was attacked did not immediately counterattack, rather it suddenly raised its neck and howled. A loud wolf howl reverberated through the sunset slopes. As if triggering a chain reaction, countless wolf howls sounded out, coming from far and near.
"This is bad, it's summoning its comrades." Feng Xiao quickly took care of the monster in front of him. From far off, five white wolves were already rushing over together.
"Fuck, this is bad." Feng Xiao faced the monsters rushing over. Each wolf could deal around 20 damage every time it hit him, being surrounded by five of them, Feng Xiao was a little scared since he had no potions.
Dodging the first attack, he ruthlessly cut down behind the wolf. Another wolf's claw came forward and Feng Xiao dodged to the side, once again side stepping, he killed it with a critical strike.
Once Feng Xiao calmed down, he was pleasantly surprised. Although the speed and reactions of this body was inferior to his real life body, but it was still quite keen. He could almost unconsciously dodge the white wolves' attacks each time. Once he killed those five wolves, he had suffered three injuries in total.
He picked up the potions and a White Grade Level 5 Beginner armour from the ground. Feng Xiao's body suddenly flashed and he called out the status window. He focused on the "reaction" stat.
Reaction: 147. Related to a player's real life reaction.
"Seems like I was right. Although it can't completely match a player's real life reaction speed, but one's real life reaction speed does increase it by a bit. Normal people should have a value of around 100."
According to one's real life reaction speed, the system does increase one's in game reaction speed accordingly. But, Feng Xiao was wrong about one thing. A normal player only had around 50 points in reaction whereas Feng Xiao had 147. This was because of Feng Xiao's real life dexterity was already at a very shocking degree.
The wolf howls did not stop. Another seven-eight wolves charged at Feng Xiao.
"I haven't fought in too long. I almost forgot that one needs to be calm when fighting."
"Humph! I am this impressive..How could I be forced back by just a bunch of animals? Come, all of you come together." Seeing the approaching wolves, Feng Xiao tightly gripped his Xuanyuan Sword. His heart was filled with excitement and bloodthirst as he gave a loud roar. The Xuanyuan Sword swept across the wolves in a large arc, creating a beautiful sword glow in the air. The minute he made a move, he did not realize that the Chaotic Arts was also activated.
"Peng, peng, peng"
-208, -202, -406, -200, -210, -202, -200.
Under Feng Xiao's look of disbelief, giant damage figures appeared above seven white wolves' heads. They all fell onto the ground, dropping potions and copper coins.
"Ding, congratulations to player Wing Spirit for learning the skill Shattering Slash'. Prestige +10."
"Ding, congratulations to player Wind Spirit for reaching level 2. HP+20, MP+10, Strength+1, Vitality+1, Agility+1, Intelligence+1. You have 5 free stat points to assign."
Shattering Slash: High level active skill
Unique Skill
Only usable by those with a demon god's body and high perception. A special skill that is not recorded in the Heavenly Dragon Records and seemingly hiding a large potential. According to its technical characteristics, the system has named it Shattering Slash. When used, it will release a sword image in front of the user to attack enemies. Has a range of 4 meters. Deals 150% of normal attack damage. Uses 30 MP and has no cooldowns.
"I actually learned a skill and it's this kind of AOE skill. This is..too easy." Feng Xiao was a little shaken after learning a skill by just killing a few wolves.
"A demon god's body appeared this time. The system would not favour me, so what is with all these titles appearing on my body? First it was the unknown physique, then it was the chaotic body, and now it's the demon god's body...Forget it, I won't worry about it. There are only advantages to this anyway."
Without thinking about it, he picked up all the bronze coins and potions, then he continued to slaughter more wolves. With the Shattering Slash, it was much easier to kill the wolves. Although Feng Xiao couldn't use it more than a several times with his current MP, there were the occasional blue potions that dropped that allowed him to barely hold on.
"Ding, congratulations to player Wind Spirit for reaching level 2."
[TL Note: This is not a mistake, it's written like this in the raws.]
...
"Ding, congratulations to player Wind Spirit for reaching level 4."
...
"Ding, congratulations to player Wind Spirit for reaching level 6. HP+20, MP+10, Strength+1, Vitality+1, Agility+1, Intelligence+1. You have 5 free stat points to assign."
With his strong attack and skill, he easily gained experience. After three hours, Feng Xiao had already reached level 6. Feng Xiao was already bored of killing white wolves with a single attack and there were no bosses that appeared. The experience given was already becoming lower.
"I guess it's time to go to place with higher level monsters." Feng Xiao saw that there were 1 gold, 13 silver, and 90 bronze coins in his inventory (1 gold coin = 100 silver coins = 10000 copper coins) and gave a bitter smile. The money given in Rebirth was truly too little. Even with his high luck, he only farmed a single gold coin in three hours.
"Ding, Player Wind Spirit, your play time has already passed 8 hours. Please log out within an hour, or else you'll be forcefully logged out."
Feng Xiao who was prepared to head north was surprised, "It's already been this long?" Rebirth was very realistic and surprising, this virtual world had fully attracted Feng Xiao. While he was indulging in the game, he had completely forgotten about the time.
Feng Xiao quickly calculated and almost loudly cursed out, "Fuck, this system even counted the two hours that I wasted."
Having a good rest pattern was necessary. Feng Xiao didn't keep grinding for another hour and directly logged off.
