Mission One: The a.s.sa.s.sins must first achieve Level 30 to be eligible for the cla.s.s advancement quest. After accepting the quest, players will be able to obtain extra Blood Essence by killing any creature (not including players). Once the a.s.sa.s.sin acc.u.mulates 10,000 points of Blood Essence, the first level of the Naraka Realm will be activated. Then, the player has successfully achieved the character cla.s.s advancement and become a Cursed Apostle.

Initially, all the a.s.sa.s.sins were excited to see such an easy mission.

Compared to the character cla.s.s advancement to Rune Master, which required the players to hunt for various materials, the rather boring quest for the a.s.sa.s.sins was as easy as pie.

However, the a.s.sa.s.sins lost hope when they noticed the prerequisite skills listed below that.

Mission Two: Character cla.s.s development.

Second Level of the Naraka Realm, the Avīci Demon's Nihility: Players have to find three different sources of the cursing power and hand it to the Cla.s.s Advancement Instructor. The Cla.s.s Advancement Instructor will proceed to engrave the three curses on the player's core in order to complete the second cla.s.s development for the Avīci Demon.

Third Level of the Naraka Realm, the sacrifice of Prajñā's Ultimate Move: Prajñā sacrificed with no form and desire. Players have to grasp the prajñā's theory via death. (Extremely difficult level. Players are required to fathom the theory on their own.)

Fourth Level of the Naraka Realm, the quaking Mountains of the Void: Players have to collect fragments of the Mountain Spirit and submit it to the Cla.s.s Advancement Instructor in order to fulfill the cla.s.s development.

…...

All the a.s.sa.s.sins were stunned after they read the prerequisites for cla.s.s development.

a.s.sa.s.sin_Creed: "Why are the elaborations for the sacrifice of Prajñā, the most powerful skill, so brief and confusing? To grasp the meaning of prajñā's theory via death? Does it mean that we have to repeatedly kill ourselves? Why is there a skill that requires the players' self-realization? Why can't the Skill Instructor guide us?"

The_Great_a.s.sa.s.sin_Player replied to a.s.sa.s.sin_Creed: "Perhaps, even the instructors don't know what to do (Joke)."

A_Mammoth: "I'm confused as well. The tutorial for the sacrifice of Prajñā is too succinct. This is my first time seeing an ability that requires players' apperception. Isn't this too difficult? I will just sit back and wait for tutorials after the experts complete the quest!"

Strike_Gold: 'As expected, the more powerful the skill, the more difficult it is. I can finally get peace of mind. However, I still think that the cla.s.s advancement for the a.s.sa.s.sins is too easy. They only need to kill creatures. By now, none of us, the berserkers, have successfully undergone cla.s.s advancement. That wrenches my heart!"

Ye_Xueer_is_the_cutest: "Brothers from the a.s.sociation of the Guardian Angels, come and destroy the Ghost Mountains with me. After I've collected 10,000 points of Blood Essence, I aspire to become the first Cursed Apostle in this game!"

Ye_Xueer's_little_follower replied to Ye_Xueer_is_the_cutest: "Xue'er is definitely the strongest! I'm rooting for you!"

Crayon_s.h.i.+nchan replied to Ye_Xueer's_little_follower: "Hi lickspittle, here we meet again. Wave~"

Ye_Xueer's_little_follower replied to Crayon_s.h.i.+nchan: "Hmph!"

Crayon_s.h.i.+nchan replied to Ye_Xueer's_little_follower: "Defeating you with a backhand slap!"

…...

Besides the Night Killer, the a.s.sa.s.sins were totally clueless about the remaining procedures to complete the character cla.s.s development.

However, there was nothing Lu Wu could help them with. Even though the template of the Cursed Apostle was easy to design, it depended solely on the players to achieve their own cla.s.s development.

This especially applied for the sacrifice of Prajñā. Even among the Cursed Clan, there were only a handful of them who could master the skill. Therefore, to mimic the realisticness, the players should practice and cultivate on their own in order to pick up these powerful skills.

The players could learn the skills of the Night Killer easily because Bei Li had set a shortcut for the cla.s.s advancement within the artifact for the players to upgrade into the Cursed Apostle.

When the players successfully acc.u.mulated 10,000 points of Blood Essence and submitted it to the Cla.s.s Advancement Instructor, the Blood Essence would be transmitted into the Artifact Channel. The artifact would then infuse these Blood Essence points into the player's core, helping the players to forge a new body.

Since the players were no longer required to take an oath to the Naraka Realm and provide sacrifices, the procedure was way easier than before.

Although the mission was extremely hard, it did not demotivate the a.s.sa.s.sin players at all. The players were seen everywhere, hunting for creatures.

Although the mages were let down by the introduction of the Cursed Apostle, they were looking forward to the launch of a cla.s.s advancement that belonged exclusively to the mages.

Lu Wu did not want to keep the mages waiting. With research led by the almighty Bei Li, a template for the mages had been finalized. It would be introduced into the game after Bei Li tested it.

Meanwhile, to enrich the in-game experience, Lu Wu's subsequent plan was to restore the Spirit Summoning Room.

The Spirit Summoning Room was where the King of Beiqi kept his defeated enemies and the spirits of his subordinates who died on the battlefield. There were many spirits of the courageous generals who used to fight alongside the King of Beiqi as he expanded his territory. More precisely, it was a memorial building.

There was a reason why Lu Wu wanted to restore the Spirit Summoning Room instead of the equipment depot.

As of now, the development of cla.s.s advancement was approaching perfection. However, there was absolutely no progress for the hidden character cla.s.ses.

According to Bei Li, there were spirits of talented warriors locked within the Spirit Summoning Room. Their inheritance could be extracted with the help of the artifact.

Their plan was to establish spontaneous cla.s.s advancement quests in the game. Players would be able to achieve hidden character cla.s.ses upon the completion of certain side quests.

After the update was launched, the players would be able to accomplish holistic development.

The hidden character cla.s.s was extremely unique. It was independent from the three main characters. Hence, the introduction of the hidden character cla.s.s would create new prospects to the game, making it more mysterious and intriguing.

Nevertheless, everything was still in progress.

Although the sum of Lu Wu's soul coins was increasing by leaps and bounds every day, the expenses were huge as well.

For instance, Lu Wu had set up two transport arrays at the border separating the Mansion of the Dead and Liuli District to make traveling easier for the players.

As this cost him a lot of soul coins, the balance of his soul coins was insufficient for the restoration of the Spirit Summoning Room, which was priced at 20,000 soul coins. Therefore, he had to save up again.

However, the Underworld was always full of surprises and unpredictable events could happen everywhere.

Right after Lu Wu and Bei Li decided on the future of the hidden character cla.s.ses, Bei Li frowned as she placed her mind on a certain player in the Underworld.

Upon seeing that, Lu Wu s.h.i.+fted his vision to the Underworld as well.

…...

In Liuli District, they were surrounded by dead woods.

A berserker raised his chin to look at the blue sky. His face crumpled with despair.

He was not enjoying the view of the blue sky. In fact, he fell into this pit that was more than ten meters deep and was now surrounded by slippery rocks. There was nothing else he could do other than just stare at the sky.

He made a few attempts to climb up the rock wall, but to no avail. Not only was the wall utterly smooth, it was also extremely hard. Even his greatsword of Blue Cla.s.s Quality could not make a slit on the wall. During his multiple attempts, he repeatedly fell down before he could go further than a meter.

He had the intention to escape by commiting suicide. However, he quickly lost hope. Every time he tried to injure himself, a green ray, originating from the wall, would immediately heal his wounds.

In despair, Sun Qi leaned on the wall wearily. He stared blankly and silently at the sky.

"The Tomb of the White Phantom? Wu, this man is in the Tomb of the White Phantom!"

Looking at the distressed berserker, Bei Li exclaimed in astonishment.

"What is this Tomb of the White Phantom?" Lu Wu asked curiously.

"There are unique Yin soul beasts inhabiting the Land of Beiqi. These creatures are rare and exquisite. They usually search for a secret place to keep their inheritance to pa.s.s it down to a living being from the Underworld who encounters it by fate. He is so lucky!"

Although Lu Wu failed to comprehend her words, he had a hunch that this was going to be an amazing thing.
