My Misfortune Crushed Instances-Chapter 183: Secret Realm Notification

Li Rui had originally prepared his mind to ascend beyond level 30 and head to the Celestial Tomb to encounter the Community Thunder, but unexpectedly, the Immortal possessing this mighty power was right before him.

It's just.....

"Uh, madam, I don't mean anything by it. Can you teach me this Community Thunder?"

Tao Yun covered her mouth and laughed: "Young master is joking. Nowadays, even my own body contains no Thunder Skill, how can I impart it to others? It's not that I don't wish to; I truly lack the capability."

Li Rui asked in confusion: "Why though? Where did the Thunder Skill go?"

Tao Yun replied solemnly: "Celestial Thunder is merely a manifestation of Spiritual Qi and mana, requiring the owner to possess the corresponding cultivation to grasp it. Now that my life is in peril and my strength weakened, I naturally cannot command the scattered Community Thunder within me."

Li Rui felt somewhat disappointed.

Unfortunately, the Community Thunder here seems to be unrelated to him, and he certainly can't dissect this Peach Blossom Spirit for study.

Not to mention whether it's moral; even if she's weakened, she's still the genuine world NPC, likely unbeatable.

"It seems I still have to go to the Celestial Tomb to search... Hmm? Wait a minute! Damn it, I thought that the bearer of Community Thunder was an Immortal, which made me think of searching the Celestial Tomb, but now I know the Immortal is the Peach Blossom Spirit. Since she's not dead... Whose tomb is it? Is there still Community Thunder in there?"

Tao Yun tilted her head, watching his expression fluctuate without interrupting his thoughts.

After a while, Li Rui shook his head, realizing there might be hidden details in this matter, so he asked: "So, madam, may I boldly ask, why has your strength weakened?"

He felt he must first clarify the background and reasons.

Tao Yun gently shook her head and spoke directly: "I hadn't finished earlier. When the heavenly might descended, it spawned a spirit not just me."

"Didn't you say that out of all the grass and trees, only you survived?"

"Indeed, but the lightning strike sparked a wildfire, and the blaze with the mountain's rocks birthed another spirit, the Lava Ancestor."

"Both of us were born here, but the Forest Spirit and Flame Spirit naturally cannot merge, so we fought fiercely. Although I narrowly won, a remnant of flame poison resides within me, slowly consuming my life force at all times, and has yet to be eradicated."

Li Rui found it deeply moving, never imagining such an event occurred a thousand years ago, no wonder Liangting's Founder sensed a hint of death upon meeting her.

It seems this powerful Peach Blossom Spirit was waiting for death shortly after birth.

Someday, she'll turn to ashes in flames, and the Forest Spirit here will be eliminated ultimately.

Yet there's no way out, as the Flame Spirit is also a product under heavenly might, making the residual poison hard to eradicate.

Then Tao Yun spoke again: "However, if the young master wishes to seek the Community Thunder, there might be discoveries in the place where it originated, although the core remains enveloped by the lingering might of the Heavenly Dao, making it inaccessible to ordinary people. You'd better take this item."

She transformed her left hand back into a peach tree branch, then broke off the sharpest tip and handed it to Li Rui.

"This item carries my breath and can slightly avoid the suppression of heavenly might, perhaps offering some assistance."

[Peach Blossom Spirit's branch.]

[Category: Special.]

[Description: Flickering with fiery-red lightning, it seems to be the key to entering a certain place. At the appropriate time, the holder will be led to the initial location of the thunder.]

This item has directly indicated itself as the key to obtaining Community Thunder, and it comes with an obligatory extraction function for the specific secret realm, mitigating fears of missing the Community Thunder due to not extracting the corresponding secret realm.

Li Rui simultaneously marveled at the sinister design of the secret realm. If not completing the high-difficulty hidden task in this level 25 secret realm, one couldn't obtain the key, and even a thorough search through the Celestial Tomb would fail to find the Community Thunder. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

As he received the branch, a notification appeared.

[All secret realm agents take note: Due to changes in the world plot, the difficulty of the level 31-35 nine-star secret realm Celestial Tomb has been increased to ten-star, and renamed Peach Blossom Spirit Tomb.]

!

Li Rui looked incredulously at the Peach Blossom Spirit before him.

He finally understood, the Celestial Tomb is indeed the Celestial Tomb, just not burying past Immortals, but the future Peach Blossom Spirit.

There lies the initial location of the thunder, both the cradle of her birth and the endpoint of her life, as the secret realm has now given a prophecy.

....

After submitting the mainline task, Li Rui reached level 30.

He awoke from the secret realm, initially thinking he had to shout himself hoarse for a while before someone came to untie him, but upon waking, he saw several pairs of concerned eyes.

"You're awake?"

"Come, rinse your mouth."

"I'll untie you, is there any discomfort?"

Admittedly, several people together managed to provide care similar to Wen Yan's attentiveness.

Li Rui sat up from the chair, half-jokingly spoke to the most familiar logistics personnel: "What's up, did you guys get a bonus today and feel unusually industrious?"

The person responded helplessly: "Buddy, look at the imprint on your hand."

At this time, the information from the previous secret realm hadn't fully faded away. Li Rui glanced down, revealing ten Black Stars.

"No wonder. But how did you find out, did you come in for a peek?"

Seeing Li Rui wasn't surprised at all, that person realized he surely understood the experiences in the secret realm and dared not inquire further, simply answered: "Mr. Hea called directly, asking us to check on your condition."

Li Rui replied "Oh," again: "Alright, I'll contact him later myself."

However, he didn't rush to make the call, and as usual, spent a few minutes sorting through his gains.

Firstly, achieving the level in the level 25 secret realm, advancing from level 25 to 30, was a considerable accomplishment, thanks to the experience package Zuo Qiutian buried.

Now there's five days left for registration, and within three days, he needs to complete an advanced secret realm, akin to a job transfer, but with the potential for risks.

Certainly, Li Rui wasn't afraid and was even stronger now than at level 25.

Aside from experience, the equipment was naturally vital; one of the world task awards was an Epic Level piece.

[Blood Soul Ring.]

[Item Level: 25.]

[Quality: Epic.]

[Attributes: Physique +8, Spirit +8, Erosion +8 (useless).]

[Special Effect: Increases spell damage dealt by 5%.]

[Active Skill — Dance on the Edge: Increases all damage received by 100%, increases all damage inflicted by 100% for 10 seconds, cannot end early. Can only be used once per secret realm.]

[Eternal: No.]

Regarding the world task related to Zuo Qiutian, the items given were quite extreme, this all-out skill offers a high reward, with the potential damage increase theorized to reach 300% when combined with scars and critical strikes, though one must bear the associated risk.

Moreover, the equipment provides a stable 33% increase in physical, Thunder Attribute, and Fist and Palm Class damage, potentially enabling attacks far surpassing the current level capabilities.

Typically, at level 30, the primary attack bonus of average individuals is commendable if it reaches 20%. Those supernovas generally max out at roughly 30%, with every additional 5% significantly enhancing strength.

Of course, others likely possess temporary boost-providing skills or talents, but absolutely cannot reach a staggering 300% increase.

With this ring, Li Rui only had an unwarranted necklace left; the rest were at least of excellent quality, with numerous rare and epic items.

After examining equipment, next were the Epic Level items.

One consumable Great Transformation Flowing Light Pill, which temporarily enhances spirit attributes by 20% upon consumption, boosting skill intensity.

Another pair of potions, each instantly increasing poison resistance by 80%, usable for guaranteeing survival in specific predicaments, and a Mountain Holding Talisman, temporarily increasing physical damage by 50%, adding another card to his hand.

In terms of materials, the Legendary Level Petal granted by the Peach Blossom Spirit must certainly be preserved for future acquisitions, using them collectively could yield stronger skills.

Additionally, Epic materials, abundant experience, and attribute points are manageable. What is crucial is confirming the location of Community Thunder and acquiring the access key; once reaching levels 31-35, he could attempt to acquire Community Thunder.
