[Levitation Grass]: Special item, Enhancement material. It can be used to create potions and forge equipment.

Levitation Grass, other people may not know its value, but Lin Jie knew it. That was a grass that only grew where the Wind Element Overlord's long term habitat was. It was extremely rare, and its effects were also very peculiar.

Levitation Grass was able to make the super rare potion [Levitation Potion], which would allow one to stay in the air for one hour after drinking it. One would not drop and would be able to cast spells freely! Try imagining, if a low-defense, low-health Mage fought against a melee Boss using the Levitation Potion, the Mage would be able to throw any spell he wanted in any pose he wished! How good would it feel to be able to kill Bosses so easily? One could even poo on the Boss' head if they wanted to, or they could really show off anytime and fly anywhere.

If the Levitation Grass was used to forge equipment, then it would be able to enhance the jumping abilities of the equipment. The height of players' jumps was normally fixed. Except for Bandits and Hunters, other jobs had few passive skills that could increase one's jumping ability. With the Levitation Grass, one would be able to jump higher than normal players by 20%!

Lin Jie had set Automatic Purchase in the City of Light Central Auction House, and he would buy all rare items as long as the prices were reasonable. Levitation Grass had appeared half a month ago, but the owner of the item had actually asked for 100,000 gold coins. Most likely, it had just been a troublemaker who had not really meant to sell the item. Thus, Lin Jie could only give up on it. Who would have thought that a Levitation Grass would appear in front of him! Lin Jie was elated beyond words and started considering how he would get that precious herb.

However, how was it possible that there would be no Boss guarding such a valuable item?

Lin Jie thought for a moment and then curbed his urge to instantly obtain the Levitation Grass. He carefully inspected the sack and activated the Dwarvish Identify Skill's Perception.

Beside the sack, a looming human figure, which was wandering around, was revealed. It was a thin and weak Magus Berserker that wore a ghost face, with a bone-teeth pendant and bone-teeth bracelet.

Sometimes, the Magus Berserker put his hands together, and other times he danced by waving his hands and legs. It even took out a few shriveled frogs that were still alive and played with them. The Magus Berserker then directly crushed them and let out a peal of laughter, like the sound of tree barks rubbing each other, which was annoying on the ear.

[Magus Berserker Worshipper] (Gold Boss)

Level: 40

Health Points: 120,000

Magic Attack: 374-475

Defense: 230

Additional effect: Barbarian Worshipper, the Magus Berserker is able to absorb Barbarians' souls to increase its power.

'Such a weak Boss.' Lin Jie was slightly surprised as he would be able to kill it easily with such stats, even if it was before the Broken Blade's enhancement. With the stats of that Magus Berserker, it would not even be a threat to Lin Jie.

However, Lin Jie did not just walk inside directly to take the sack and retrieve the Levitation Grass within it. Instead, Lin Jie composed himself and started observing the Magus Berserker's moving route. Don't forget that even the Barbarian Clan Leader within the Goblet of Soul could not wait to release the mission, which requested players to kill the Magus. Thus, the difficulty of that Boss could be predicted that it definitely would not be as weak and easy as it seemed on the surface.

One did not fight a battle without confidence!

Lin Jie thought of an idea, and the Goblet of Soul landed in his hands.

"It's him! That damn b*stard!" said Barbarian Graham, who appeared from within the goblet as he looked at the Magus Berserker. "Master, the reason why we the Barbarian race had fallen into such a predicament was all due to that Magus Berserker's bewitchment! There were a total of 1,600 Barbarian Clan Leaders within the Ancient Wilderness Temple, but all of them, their blood and flesh, were offered up as a sacrifice, only leaving the two weakest to become the guards. If it were not for that human that had charged in, then even our souls would not be left. In that Magus Berserker, there are at least hundreds of Barbarian souls stored in him."

"Oh?" Lin Jie was slightly astonished.

Lin Jie had noticed the additional effect on the Magus Berserker—it was able to increase its strength by absorbing the Barbarians' souls. Thus, it meant that the Magus Berserker was a Boss that could grow in strength. If Lin Jie was overly confident and just directly started the battle, then the Magus Berserker would devour a large number of souls, and he would evolve.

'I should get the sack first, as long as I obtain the Levitation Grass and eat it, the suspension effect can last for 10 minutes, though the effects will not be as powerful as if used to make potions. With the Holy Light Winged Armor, I just need to float there from mid-air.' Lin Jie made his decision to get the sack first!

If there were Bandits around, then it would be much simpler to obtain the sack as the Bandits' skills such as Stealth Move, Forced Invisibility, and Gale Steps were literally created for stealing things. It was a pity that Lin Jie was a Warrior, and the only skill that he knew was Fog Concealment, which was limited by the environment, so it could not be used either.

Therefore, he had to use the Warrior's way of stealing!

Lin Jie calculated that the Boss' aggro radius was around 37 yards according to the settings of aggro and the adjustments due to level difference. He moved with preciseness, and his steps were all just outside the aggro of the Magus Berserker and followed the Magus Berserker as he wandered around. When the Magus Berserker moved to the spot, which was furthest from the sack—

Hunter's Forward Charge! Wild Charge!

In half a second, Lin Jie charged forward by a total of 10 yards swiftly and violently. The Magus Berserker instantly reacted, and as he waved his hand, six deep green and smelly toads leaped towards Lin Jie. Their bodies were like balloons, swelling bigger and bigger before a loud explosion sound echoed. In the next instant, dark green venom was scattered all over with the remaining corpses.

'Self-Exploding Toad! Sorcery is really disgusting.' Lin Jie resisted the temptation to throw away the toad leg on his face and continued to charge forward. The Magus Berserker's Attack was too weak, even if Lin Jie was hit by all six toads, they would only deal 16 points of damage.

Holy Light Winged Armor moved, and Lin Jie's speed increased even faster. He was so close to grabbing the sack into his hands!

Just at that moment, his footsteps suddenly sank, and Lin Jie's body instantly stopped.

Ding~

—Battle prompt message: You have been hit by a [Self-Exploding Toad], received 17 points of damage. This will conduct judgement, three times in a row, per second in the next 30 seconds. When a judgment is successful, you will be bound for 2 seconds.

Lin Jie was unable to move as he was trapped by the effects of the [Self-Exploding Toad].

The Magus Berserker grabbed the sack and let out a creepy peal of laughter. He poured out the sack, and a Goblet of Soul, which was five times as big as the one Lin Jie had, appeared in the Magus Berserker's hands. Then he opened his big ugly mouth and swallowed everything in the goblet.

The Magus Berserker's muscles bulged out explosively, and his shriveled body was instantly filled to the brim with energy—it was even more robust than real Barbarians.

Barbaric Smash!

The Magus Berserker had even inherited the skills of the Barbarians after absorbing their souls. His bulky body filled with muscles the size of small mountains charged towards Lin Jie.

The moment before Lin Jie was hit, he activated Against the Wind to nullify the Binding effect and dodged it. Lin Jie used his Broken Blade to slash the back of Magus Berserker, but only a dull sound could be heard as the blade seemed to have pierced into a beef tendon. It was unable to be pushed forward!

-829!

-172!

'My Damage Dealt was lower than 1,000, such powerful sorcery!' Lin Jie was slightly surprised.

However, after the Magus Berserker transformed, the upper limit of his health points did not increase—it was just his Attack and Defense that had risen by 200%, and that he had inherited Barbarians' skills.

The Magus was obviously unfamiliar with the skill, so Lin Jie was not afraid at all. However, if the Magus Berserker had continued to use Self-Exploding Toads, Lin Jie might be worried that he would die sooner or later. Both of them fought with swords, but subsequently, it was Lin Jie's showtime as his attacks were all deadly while the Magus Berserker's attacks found no target.

As Lin Jie attacked, souls were stripped off the Magus Berserker and continued to surge towards Lin Jie. Those were the Barbarians' souls, which were stored within the Magus Berserker—the source of its power. However, since Lin Jie had the Goblet of Soul on him too, he could also snatch the souls.

'Absorbing so many souls, if this Barbarian becomes too strong, won't he betray me? If he does, then I will destroy the Character Card to prevent any problems from arising,' thought Lin Jie secretly as he observed the Goblet of Soul. However, he saw that within the goblet, every time the Barbarian refined a soul, he would then give it all to Lin Jie, without leaving any behind. The feeling of power being transferred was the best sensation.

—Battle prompt message: The Goblet of Soul enhanced 20 points of Strength for you, your attack will have an additional 3% of "Stiffening".

Lin Jie was slightly surprised as his sword was pierced into the Magus Berserker's chest. Lin Jie turned his Broken Blade, and the Magus Berserker's body instantly stiffened, unable to move. It was as if placing oneself at the mercy of others. That was the effect of Stiffening, which caused the target to be unable to attack or channel spells in a short period of time.

Shield Cut! Army Obliteration!

Lin Jie attacked consecutively, and damage points of over 1,000 kept on popping up. What appeared afterward were large numbers of Barbarian souls. After being refined by the fire in the goblet, they continued providing strength points to Lin Jie and kept on increasing the chances of activating Stiffening.

As Lin Jie got stronger, the Magus Berserker became weaker. Under such circumstances, Lin Jie attacked more conveniently.

"Master, be careful. He knows the divine spell that is able to explode the Barbarians' souls. We were all afraid of that skill, so we were forced to go into hiding," reminded Graham in the Goblet of Soul.

At that moment, the Magus Berserker's health points decreased to 20%!

"Damn you human, you intruded into my holy ground! You are the same as that b*stard who barged in a few thousand years ago, and you're destined to be sealed here forever!"

The blood under the Magus Berserker's veins was squirming like earthworms and actually crawled out from underneath his skin. Together with over 20 Self-Exploding Toads, they attacked Lin Jie.

The Magus Berserker himself even put his hands together and prayed sincerely, "The ruler of the mainlands, the King of Barbarism, who sleeps within this Ancient Wilderness Temple, I beg of you to lend me your power and explode the soul of the betrayer…"

The ultimate skill [Soul Explosion] ignored friend or foe, and all Barbarians' souls wandering around a radius of 100 yards would explode and deal high damage!

"Croak, croak, croak…" Over 20 Self-Exploding Toads exploded, and the bloody earthworms also gathered to form a pair of huge hands, which went to grab Lin Jie's Goblet of Soul.

Lin Jie's face turned pale in shock. He had absorbed over 100 Barbarian souls while only a small number of souls had been refined into Strength for Lin Jie—the rest were still stored in his body. Now, all of them were letting out irascible destructive auras, and they seemed to be about to explode!

"Master, please allow me to devour the souls! I can help you!" shouted Graham loudly at that moment. He had become a Character Card, so he was not thrown out of the Goblet of Soul.

Lin Jie gritted his teeth. "Alright!"

"Hahaha, respectable Clan Heads, please become my strength!" Graham laughed loudly as he pulled three souls into the Goblet of Soul. He directly devoured them in a few bites, and his power grew considerably. Graham twirled his hands and released a Soul Whirlwind, which sucked in the hundred of souls!

Whoosh!

Light Soul Magic was transferred from the Goblet of Soul to Lin Jie.

"Master, I have devoured 20 souls and am able to gather the Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe for you! However, although the Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe gathered by 80 Barbarians only has 0,001 of its original power, it is enough to kill that Magus Berserker."

Lin Jie flipped his palm, and a light blue Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe the size of one's index finger appeared in his palm. The moment it appeared, Lin Jie almost fell into the front, flat on the ground. He didn't expect that such a small axe would be much heavier than his Broken Blade. Thus, he nearly couldn't react in time. If it wasn't for Lin Jie having enough Strength points, then it was most likely he might have gotten himself killed already!

The battleaxe transformed into a giant axe, which had the height of two people. Lin Jie had to use both his hands to be able to hold that battleaxe steadily.

"Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe!" shouted Lin Jie loudly

[fuzzy]-1,028! (Critical Hit)

Ding~

—'You have killed the Magus Berserker. You have received 1,200,000 EXP.'

The monsters in the Ancient Wilderness Temple would not drop any equipment. Lin Jie did not check the Magus Berserker's body. Instead, he hurried to where the sack was and grabbed it into his hands—it was a huge gain!

'If I make use of this Barbarian, then I can use that amazing Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe skill! Even if it's 0,001 of its strength, it will be able to deal 500% damage! What if 100% of the skill was used? I can't even imagine its Damage Dealt!'

However, what Lin Jie thought was, 'Unfortunately, this Barbarian cannot be trusted either! I need to obtain the Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe Skill Book by using him.'
