Chapter 19 - Thinking of Something Happy

Xu Yuan could not help but swallow his saliva.

Only after looking away from it did he dare to breathe freely.

Oh god!

The activation tool for the primordial divine artifact questline.

The priceless Awakening Array was like a firefly compared to this!

Divine equipment and divine artifacts had only one word that was different, but they were not the same thing.

"Divine equipment" was just a name people used to call powerful equipment. It was created by a manufacturing role and had powerful attributes, but it was ultimately made by mortals.

Divine artifact...

It was an existence from ancient legends.

People could only read about them in books.

Reality and the game had merged for so many years, but no one had ever seen them.

Xu Yuan tried his best to slow down his heartbeat and control his facial expression so that he wouldn't laugh out loud.

As expected.

He would be the first person to complete the divine artifact questline!

"What are you doing?" Lin Mucheng asked curiously, "Your whole body is shaking. Are you cold?"

"I just thought of something happy." Xu Yuan waved his hand.

"Look, Guild Leader Yin Yue has given me something good. This proves that my chest is indeed worth the money, right?" He casually said, "With this big shot here as a witness, it'll be much easier to sell boxes in the future." 

There was no rush for the divine artifact questline.

His current strength was still far from enough!

What he had to do now was to sell more boxes and pray that this rich person would be lucky enough to get more good things from the boxes.

This way...

Only then could he get a better return.

"Of course, all of you can earn."

"But I will earn even more!" he said inwardly.

"Continue watching him open the chest!" Xu Yuan spoke evasively and gestured for Lin Mucheng to turn her little head away.

After Guild Leader Yin Yue finished opening the equipment and consumable treasure chests, he took a short break.

Today's highlight was the remaining six skill treasure chests.

At this moment, Guild Leader Yin Yue looked even more nervous.

When the Awakening Array appeared, it made him feel both happy and worried. If he used all his luck on that thing, wouldn't it be a loss and very embarrassing?

The first chest.

Under Guild Leader Yin Yue's uneasy gaze, a purple light shot into the sky!

He was an Arcane Mage, so what he got from the treasure chest was naturally a Spell Skill Scroll.

A purple grade [Arcane Barrier].

He had learned this skill long ago, so he could only sell it.

Yin Yue could only sigh inwardly as he slowly retrieved the next treasure chest.

However, Xu Yuan was very happy.

What Yin Yue wanted was a powerful skill, but so did Xu Yuan!

The weakness of the Treasure Chest Merchant was not only the weak attributes but also the lack of role skills!

On his skill panel, there were all the icons for crafting treasure chests.

Although the only role skill was red, it was only a damage reduction skill, so it was not very useful for the time being.

And the talent of return would make up for this fatal shortcoming!

No matter how many divine equipment or consumables were produced, even if he was armed to the teeth, it could only be said to be good-looking but useless.

This was because Treasure Chest Merchants only knew how to create treasure chests.

A full set of divine equipment would at most make him look a little more handsome than others when he was forging treasure chests.

The skills of all the major roles.

That was what Xu Yuan desperately needed.

The first box of skills was an orange spell skill.

[Skill: Arcane Prism]

[Level: Orange Legendary]

[Passive Skill: Under the protection of surging Arcane energy, any damage received will be reflected through the prism. Its protection will remain until its mana is exhausted.]

Xu Yuan quickly read it twice in his mind.

This was... Passive damage reduction?

According to the literal meaning...

After learning this skill, all damage received would be bounced away, and the main body would not receive much damage until the mana was exhausted!

Xu Yuan was eager to try.

But now was not the best time.

On the other side, Guild Leader Yin Yue activated another purple-grade skill.

[Talent 100-fold Return Skill activated. You have obtained a Gold Epic Skill - Arcane Awakening]

[Skill: Arcane Awakening]

[Level: Gold Epic]

[Active Skill: Instant Cast Spell; Recover to the most perfect state within 5 seconds; Cooldown: 1 hour.]

"Hiss-"

Heaven-defying!

A heaven-defying skill that could be used once an hour!

There were many consumables that could instantly restore status, but there were very few skills that could do this.

Why was it so difficult to get a support-type role? This was because their healing skills could quickly help the injured recover!

When exploring a secret realm, it was very fatal to be in an unsatisfactory state!

With a skill like [Arcane Awakening], Xu Yuan's need for a support-type role would be lesser. 

One-hour cooldown.

As long as he was careful, it would be enough!

Buzz!

Another purple light.

Xu Yuan gladly accepted the next return.

[Skill: Arcane Surge]

[Level: Orange Legendary]

[Active Skill: Consumes all mana and annihilates your target in one fell swoop. A powerful Arcane Explosion is triggered according to the mana consumed.]

Xu Yuan was numb.

He had heard of this skill before.

The one who used it was a famous Archmage. He used this skill to sink an island and wipe out all the creatures on the island!

If the Archmage was given an [Arcane Awakening] as well, he would be able to cast a small nuclear explosion every hour!

Indeed.

Xu Yuan's current attributes were definitely far inferior to that of the Archmage.

The power of the Arcane Explosion detonated by him would definitely not be as shocking.

But who knew what would happen in the future?

Xu Yuan was in a good mood.

The three skills that were returned in a row gave him a certain amount of combat power.

If he equipped the high-quality equipment in his backpack, he would probably be able to protect himself!

Yin Yue still had three intermediate skill treasure chests on hand, which meant that Xu Yuan still had three chances to return the skill!

"Brother, you must not give up hope!"

Xu Yuan looked excitedly at the hesitant Yin Yue.

This old fellow's heart had already fallen to the bottom of the valley after opening three purple-grade skills consecutively.

"Guild Leader Yin Yue, don't stop! There are only three left. Hurry up!" The big shots urged.

They were also very impatient.

The fact that the consumable treasure chest could open a treasure like the Awakening Array raised their expectations for the treasure chest again.

However, the three consecutive purple-grade skills made their hearts waver again.

Was there a need to gamble on this treasure chest?

They needed a piece of shocking news to make up their minds.

The third box from the bottom was chosen.

Purple!

Guild Leader Yin Yue's eyelids twitched, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

The big shots stared at Yin Yue's hands anxiously, hoping to see something different.

The second last box.

It was still purple!

Xu Yuan seemed to have heard the sound of Guild Leader Yin Yue's heart breaking.

He didn't have the time to check the two new skills. He raised his head high and locked his eyes on the last treasure chest.

If this box didn't open up anything that would make people's eyes light up.

This advertisement would be a...

A huge failure!

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Yin Yue placed his slender palm on the ancient treasure chest.

His heart was as still as water.

He silently said, "Open."

The treasure chest glowed with a brilliant light.

Ka--
