There are three experiences and guidelines for pioneering the Blood Mist World.

—The Blood Mist World is filled with uncertain dangers, not limited to monsters!

—Monsters in the Blood Mist World do not drop Copper Coins, skills, or equipment. If you want something, you have to skin it yourself!

—The Mad King Building has marked strongholds in the Blood Mist World. After occupying one for a certain period, that area will transform into a Safe Zone, but so far, no player has found a stronghold!

—In the Blood Mist World, all dormitory building-related functions such as the chat room, private messages, the Trading Network, and backpacks become unavailable!

—After entering the Blood Mist World, you cannot view any information other than your own. Items found can only have their specific value identified after entering a Safe Zone!

"Has anyone counted how many people have died?" Xu Lang looked at Tong Qi and asked.

"At least several dozen, the exact number is uncertain. The danger level in the Blood Mist World is extremely high," Tong Qi said gravely. "Currently, there are two main pioneering points for everyone, the Fine Arts College building and Ginkgo Avenue."

The survival rate for entering the Blood Mist World is much higher than for entering Exploration Mode, and the rewards are equally substantial, so everyone is preparing for pioneering.

Some speculate that the first player to successfully occupy a stronghold will receive a reward from the dormitory building.

Xu Lang said calmly, "Notify Wang Yazhi to come over. Ruyan, Little Meng, Sherry, and Zhen Lu will stay behind to provide support at critical moments."

Wang Yazhi enjoys killing and fighting, so she'll likely be happy to go pioneering together.

"Okay!" Tong Qi nodded vigorously.

Not long after, Wang Yazhi and the others arrived at the supermarket.

Before they came, Xu Lang had already clearly explained what they needed to do.

As soon as they arrived, they went to purchase supplies.

Everyone had different ideas. Xu Lang sweeping through the supermarket didn't mean they didn't have things they wanted to buy themselves.

About half an hour later, the women returned.

"Let's start allocating stats," Xu Lang said, not asking what they had bought.

Wang Yazhi stared at Xu Lang and asked, "Xu Lang, is your Constitution about to break through 150 points?"

Xu Lang nodded, "That's right."

"Then when do you plan to undergo the Limit Break Trial?" Wang Yazhi pressed.

Xu Lang replied, "I'll wait until my automatic cultivation pushes it up. I want to purchase some close-combat skills first, then undergo the Constitution Limit Break Trial... I'll use these 20 Free Attributes on my Spirit attribute."

When any single attribute of a player reaches 150 points, they can undergo a Limit Break Trial. Breaking through allows them to continue improving that attribute and gain an "Attribute Talent."

The Attribute Trial is extremely difficult. Some so-called elite players cannot pass it, though Xu Lang is naturally not among them.

It's inevitable that Xu Lang will pass the Attribute Trial, but the issue of completion rate needs to be considered.

The higher the completion rate, the better the "Attribute Talent" obtained.

Xu Xiaomeng looked curiously at Wang Yazhi, "Sister Yazhi, how did you know Lang Ge's attribute was about to break through 150 points?"

"I saw Xu Lang kept all those good close-combat skill scrolls for himself," Wang Yazhi replied with a smile.

During the Attribute Trial, apart from skills, players cannot use any items or weapons. Furthermore, if it's a Constitution trial, spirit-type skills will be suppressed, and vice versa.

Next, the group began allocating their stats.

It's worth mentioning that after obtaining Low-Tier Ice Magic, Cao Yaxuan discussed with everyone and decided to change her stat allocation strategy.

Her original strategy was Constitution 1X, Spirit 2X. Now she's changing it to Constitution 1X, Spirit 3X.

After allocating all twenty Free Attributes to his Spirit attribute, Xu Lang closed his eyes and entered the Fusion Dream.

As he became more familiar with the Nightmare Lord sequence, he could perform many abilities "as easily as wielding his own arm," not confined to specific forms. For example, entering the Fusion Dream anytime, anywhere.

Inside the Fusion Dream, Xu Lang did not fuse close-combat skills. Instead, he took out a Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin Transformation Card.

It was time to take a gamble!

He hadn't collected so many transformation cards just for a momentary thrill at a critical juncture!

Single-use items?

Even dogs wouldn't want them!

[Nightmare Coins -3500, Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin upgraded to Level 11]

[Please choose one of the following upgrade directions and make your selection within three minutes]

[One, Ghost Goblin Transformation Card: A single-use item that allows transformation into the Ghost Goblin, an upper-tier lineage of the Mountain Goblin clan, capable of hunting hundreds of beasts and commanding specters (Uncommon)]

[Two, Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin King: A single-use item that allows transformation into a powerful being among the Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin race (Uncommon)]

[Three, Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin: A permanent item that allows transformation into a Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin (Rare)]

Three transformation cards materialized before Xu Lang. The one on the left had a dark, eerie artistic style, depicting a black monster howling at the moon. The middle one was a Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin, but its physique was more robust and imposing than the one Xu Lang transformed into. The one on the far right was an ordinary Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin.

"My Nightmare Lord sequence has also changed with the times!" Seeing the rarity levels marked behind the three cards before him, the corner of Xu Lang's mouth lifted in a pleased smile.

Then, he reached out and tapped the Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin card on the far right.

Even though it was only Rare, it was a permanent item!

Holding the Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin Transformation Card, Xu Lang then took out the Golden Armored Corpse Transformation Card and began fusing the two cards together!

Item fusion wasn't flashy or complicated. They fused directly, with no room for regret.

The two cards merged together, continuously emitting golden light.

"The Six-Eyed Mountain Goblin is a permanent item. Such a distinctive characteristic, the fusion ability shouldn't ignore it, right?"

Xu Lang's heart was tense to the extreme.

The Nightmare Lord sequence is his own sequence. It wouldn't screw him over!

Holding onto this firm belief, Xu Lang awaited a "good result."

After about ten seconds, the fusion was complete.

[Upgrade Condition: 15000 Nightmare Coins]

[Introduction: The Six-Eyed Golden Corpse King, suspected to be a corpse realm variant refined by some evil sorcerer!]

On the card, the Six-Eyed Golden Corpse King was draped in golden radiance over its armor. Its face had six vertical eyes, imposing and terrifying, like a demon god from another world.

Xu Lang's smile gradually turned twisted.

"The Nightmare Lord is such a great sequence!"

He still had one fusion opportunity left. Xu Lang fused the Six-Eyed Golden Corpse King Transformation Card with other transformation cards. No new skills appeared, but the base attributes of the Six-Eyed Golden Corpse King increased somewhat.

Outside.

Xu Lang opened his eyes, took the Six-Eyed Golden Corpse King Transformation Card from his backpack, and tucked it into his chest.

Although he had taken out the transformation card within the Fusion Dream, that was merely a visualization of the concept, not actually bringing the physical card into the Fusion Dream.
