Chapter 17

Blade Hall!

As soon as Qin Han stepped out of the gate, a notification popped up before him:

"You have refused the Blade Hall Master's summons. The Blade Hall faction's Favorability toward you has dropped to Hostile."

Qin Han rubbed his nose and chuckled helplessly.

This Blade Hall Master really holds a grudge, huh?

He remembered that in his past life, after obtaining the Top-tier Swordsman Token, he had taken on the Sword Dojo's challenge. However, due to his limited skill at the time, he had only managed to reach the third trial before failing.

Back then, the Blade Hall Master's Favorability toward him had dropped to Contempt the moment he failed the task.

Now, it had plummeted straight to Hostile.

Oh well.

After acquiring the Profession Token and the Unique Treasure, there was nothing left for him to gain from the Blade Hall.

Hostile or not, who cared?

It wasn’t like he planned to deal with them again anyway.

With an indifferent attitude, Qin Han rode Nightmare back to the Beginner's Village, his expression relaxed.

Along the way, another World Announcement flashed before him:

"Congratulations to player Jiang Ningxue for being the first to Job Change into a Saint-level Profession! Reward: 1 Heavenly Dao Point."

Immediately after, another announcement followed:

"Congratulations to player Jiang Ningxue for obtaining a Unique Treasure! Reward: 1 Heavenly Dao Point."

Beginner's Village Y120131

At the Job Change Altar, the Woman in White, Jiang Ningxue, held a snow-white longbow in her hands, her body radiating the golden glow of a Saint-level Profession Aura.

A faint smile appeared on her stunning face.

"I never expected that combining two Profession Tokens would result in a Saint-level Profession."

"Even more surprising is that the first person to Job Change into a Saint-level Profession would also receive a Unique Treasure."

"It seems caution truly pays off."

As she examined the attributes of the Unique Treasure and her Saint-level Profession, her face filled with astonishment.

Snow God Bow: A growth-type Unique Treasure, a divine artifact from the Endless Snow Domain.

Attack Power:

- Freeze: Attacks deal an additional 100 points of freezing damage over 10 seconds. Against non-elite monsters, the freeze chance is 100%.

- Ice Element Weakening: 50%!

- Rapid Shot: The bowstring's lightness allows for maximum draw speed, enabling a single shot to release twelve ice arrows.

More attributes will unlock as it levels up.

Arrow Saint: A Saint-level Profession, unique in the Myriad Heavens.

- Growth Value: 10x!

- Passive: Arrow Saint Aura

- Bow-type damage increased by 100%.

- Speed increased by 100%.

- Attack speed increased by 100%.

- Arrow sharpness increased by 100%.

- Defense increased by 100%.

"Even in its incomplete form, this Unique Treasure is already so powerful. What kind of state would it reach at its full potential?"

"And this Arrow Saint Profession… it’s truly incredible. Just the Growth Value alone is tenfold—every level-up grants an additional 100 Constitution!"

"Not to mention the Arrow Saint Aura—it might even surpass the Unique Treasure. With five stacked buffs, it effortlessly doubles my combat power. And since they’re percentage-based, they’ll remain invaluable no matter how strong I become in the future!"

"I suppose Saint-level Professions must be one of the most crucial elements in this game. Those who obtain them are bound to achieve limitless heights."

Unconsciously, Qin Han’s name surfaced in Jiang Ningxue’s thoughts.

"I wonder if that Qin Han can also Job Change into a Saint-level Profession."

"But given his strength… he probably can, right?"

Beginner's Village 688

Qin Han sat atop his horse, his gaze fixed on the World Announcement.

The corners of his lips curled slightly.

"So it's her. It seems the game's trajectory hasn't changed much, aside from my interference."

Jiang Ningxue—

The Holy Maiden of the Supreme Divine Kingdom's Great Xia Dynasty, a pinnacle force in the cosmos.

A powerhouse like her, standing at the zenith of the universe, should have been assigned to the Final Battlefield.

However, in his past life, Qin Han had heard some things.

The Divine Throne of the Supreme Divine Kingdom was passed down through generations.

During the succession, the heir had to strip away their divine power to undergo an infusion of new power.

In the brief transitional period between the old and new powers, they would be as vulnerable as mortals.

Jiang Ningxue was judged as a beginner during this vacuum period at the Coronation Ceremony of the Divine Empress and was teleported here.

But even without her divine power, someone of her status could still stand at the absolute peak among beginners through sheer physical strength alone.

Even the most ordinary players from the Supreme Divine Kingdom had a Constitution of four to five thousand, while someone like Jiang Ningxue likely started with around eight thousand—undoubtedly the very top among all players in the Beginner's Village.

Moreover, the laws of the Supreme Divine Kingdom were extremely strict. If Jiang Ningxue entered any Beginner's Village under its jurisdiction, her subordinates would spare no effort to enhance her strength.

It was only natural that she managed to obtain a Saint-level Profession Token.

To be honest, though the two had never met in his past life, Qin Han had clearly read the guide Jiang Ningxue posted about the Godslayer Bow.

Come to think of it, he had actually snatched her opportunity.

But then again, someone from such a prestigious background wouldn’t lack such things.

Right now, what she likely held was another Treasure—the Snow God Bow. At its peak, this bow could even plunge an entire realm into extreme cold, an overwhelmingly domineering weapon.

……

The moon had leaped out at some point, casting a silvery-white glow over the ground.

Qin Han arrived at the Beginner's Village Altar.

At this moment, there wasn’t a single player here—not even the Village Chief responsible for Job Changes.

The surroundings were eerily silent, save for the chirping of unknown insects.

But he hadn’t come to the altar for a Job Change.

He was here to synthesize.

Job Changes required the Village Chief, but synthesis could be done anytime.

Without hesitation, he strode to the center of the altar, pulled out two Profession Tokens from his pocket, and placed them on the stone table at the heart of the altar.

[Detected two Top-tier Profession Tokens. Proceed with synthesizing the Saint-level Profession Blade Saint Token?]

Qin Han: "Yes."

The moment he confirmed, the two tokens suddenly floated three feet above the stone table, twisting together like a vortex.

They spun for about ten seconds before—

A flash of golden light erupted from the altar.

Soon, a radiant, golden Saint-level Profession Token bearing the words "Blade Saint" was fully formed.

Seeing this, Qin Han let out a sigh of relief.

In the Myriad Realms, there were hundreds of millions of Top-tier Profession Tokens.

Different combinations of Top-tier Profession Tokens could synthesize different Saint-level Profession Tokens.

However, since there were only thirty-six Saint-level Professions, once someone synthesized one first, those who came after would be out of luck.

Fortunately, once synthesized, even without undergoing the Job Change, no one could take it away.

Though the profession’s attributes couldn’t be seen before the Job Change, he already knew the Blade Saint’s properties.

Blade Saint: A Saint-level Profession, unique across the Myriad Realms.

Growth Value: Tenfold.

100% increase in blade-type weapon attack.

100% increase in attack speed.

100% increase in movement speed.

100% increase in blade-type weapon sharpness.

100% increase in defense.

Ten times the Growth Value—by reaching level 20 as a beginner, he could gain 2,000 points of Constitution, and by level 100, he would have 10,000 points of Constitution!

With this Job Change profession and its passive aura alone, even if he were to slack off completely from now on, doing nothing but grinding monsters to level up, his future achievements wouldn’t be too shabby. At the very least, reaching the Final Battlefield would be a breeze. With just a slight effort, he could crush everything and become one of the notable figures in the Myriad Heavens.

However, there are still 36 Saint-level Professions in the Myriad Heavens. Moreover, powerhouses like Jiang Ningxue, with her top-tier bloodline and unparalleled background, started with an initial Constitution of 8,000 points—and she also obtained a Saint-level Profession. If he were to settle for just a Saint-level Profession, even with numerous opportunities in the future, his ultimate achievements would at best be on par with Jiang Ningxue.

And that’s not even considering the fact that, by the time he reached the Final Battlefield, he’d have to face those ancient superpowered freaks who’ve lived for hundreds of millions of years or even longer.

Fortunately, the Saint-level Profession isn’t the end of the road. Above it lies the Divine-level Profession—something no one had ever obtained in his previous life. The information about the Divine-level Profession was only revealed later by the game system on the Myriad Realms Forum.

The method to synthesize the Divine-level Profession is deceptively simple: just combine a Saint-level Profession Token with a Hidden Profession Token.
