…
Whether he could snatch it or not was another matter. Anyway, when Qin Fang went to Japan, he didn't intend to be peaceful. The ultimate mission doomed Qin Fang to stand on the opposite side of some big forces.
And this big force almost included all the sects in Japan. That was to say, Qin Fang and these sects were in a hostile state from the beginning. Then, when Qin Fang's opponent was them, it was natural for him to snatch those maps …
This mission wasn't urgent. For the time being, Qin Fang still couldn't find the time to go to Japan to stir up the chaos. Naturally, there was no way to find the other three maps.
Not having time to go to Japan didn't mean that Qin Fang wouldn't study this secret map.
"Do these three overseas Spirit Mountains really exist?"
Judging from this map, it seemed that the overseas Spirit Mountains in the ancient legends of Long Province really existed, but they didn't know where they were. Even if the American military satellites covered the world, they couldn't find their existence …
Of course, this was enough to show how hidden this secret realm was. It was estimated that it could only be found through the combination of these four maps.
This was actually not surprising. Many of the secret techniques in Long Province were extremely mysterious. Among them, Qian Men's array was even more wonderful.
For example, Qin Fang knew Qian Men's Elder Song Qianqiu in Hong Kong. His attainments in array were at the grandmaster level. He could arrange many extremely wonderful arrays.
The three overseas Spirit Mountains were actually the blessed lands of the immortals. They had always been very mysterious. Many people went out to sea to search, but they couldn't find them.
Until modern society, even satellites couldn't find them. It could only mean that the overseas Spirit Mountains were hidden by a mysterious array … It was estimated that the only way to find this secret realm was to collect these four maps and then follow the map. Only then could it be possible to find the secret realm!
However, Qin Fang was quite interested in this secret realm that had existed for god knows how many years. Inside this secret realm was a paradise of immortals, and it was also an incomparably primitive wilderness suburb. Only by truly entering it could one truly understand.
However, these three celestial mountains had always been in the sea and had almost no contact with the surrounding continents. They had been cut off for thousands of years, so it was probably very difficult for them to develop technology as quickly as the outside world. Perhaps they were still stuck in a very primitive ancient era …
Even Qin Fang was a little skeptical about the existence of humans in this secret realm. Maybe this secret realm was empty, and there was no one left!
"Who cares … It won't be easy to find all four maps. Let's talk about it later!"
This quest didn't have a time limit, so Qin Fang wasn't very anxious. He would slowly collect and complete this quest after he went to Japan.
Qin Fang put the map into the Item Box first. He would take it out when he needed it. There was no safer place than here.
"How did Nakano get this map?"
However, Qin Fang was still a little surprised how this map came out of Nakano's body. The four maps were hidden in the major sects of the Japanese martial arts world. As for which sect they were in, Qin Fang wasn't very clear.
But it was basically certain that these sects absolutely treated this thing as a treasure, or at least they used to be treasures. However, Nakano's background seemed to be very ordinary. He was a master of a small sect with no status. It wasn't until he mixed into this special organization that he was focused on training.
However, if this map was obtained from this organization, it seemed a bit unreasonable. How could this kind of thing be casually taken out by people?
"Did Nakano get it by accident?"
After thinking about it, Qin Fang seemed to think that this was slightly more likely. With Nakano's strength and style of doing things, it was not impossible for him to accidentally kill someone and steal the treasure.
Moreover, the Xianxian Secret Land was very likely to exist in the nearby sea. It was also possible that Nakano brought the map out to search for it.
Qin Fang knew that this map was divided into four parts, but Nakano might not know. This map had been separated for hundreds of thousands of years and had always been treasured by certain sects. It was likely that very few people knew about this map, and even fewer people knew that there were several copies of this map …
After putting away the map, Qin Fang didn't continue to think about this matter. Instead, he was concerned about his own matters. Because …
"I've advanced to Master. Why haven't I reached Level 6?"
Qin Fang had been busy before, so he didn't notice this point. He only reacted now. Looking at the character panel, he found that his level was still at Level 5, not Level 6.
This was obviously very abnormal. In terms of EXP, Qin Fang had already met the requirements to reach Level 6. He might not even be far from Level 7. After all, Qin Fang had recently killed quite a few experts, including several Master experts. His EXP was definitely increasing rapidly.
The problem was that he had enough EXP, but his level wasn't increasing. This was quite strange …
After discovering this problem, Qin Fang carefully studied the details of his character panel. The system definitely wouldn't make a mistake, so it could only mean that he must have overlooked something.
"This is …"
After studying it carefully, the problem came to light.
After the Level tab, there was a smaller option with the words "Upgrade" and "Exchange" on it.
First, he noticed the "Upgrade" option. Qin Fang understood what was going on. Level 6 was a watershed, not only for strength, but also for the system.
When the EXP reached the critical point of leveling up, and the realm reached Master, then the conditions for leveling up would be met. At that time, he would need to manually choose to level up.
Or … the "Exchange" option at the back.
Qin Fang carefully studied the "Exchange" option. Although the contents of the system's remarks weren't particularly detailed, it was generally clear.
After reaching Master rank, EXP gained from leveling up wasn't as important. There were also more ways to grind EXP. Hence, most of the time, EXP was in a surplus state. However, leveling up, mastering skills, and so on wasn't something that could be achieved overnight.
So, there was an additional "Exchange" option.
There were a lot of things to exchange, mainly divided into two categories … Skill Proficiency and Rare Items.
Skill Proficiency was Qin Fang's strength, but at the same time, it was also his biggest weakness. The speed of leveling up a skill at Beginner and Intermediate level was barely passable, but once it reached Advanced level, it would completely become a tortoise's speed.
Until now, among Qin Fang's many skills, only [Cooking] and [Investigation] had entered the Master level. As for the other skills, most of them were still at Beginner and Intermediate level, and some had entered the Advanced level. However, they were still far from reaching Master level.
"This Exchange function came at the right time …"
It was also because the speed of leveling up his skill proficiency was too slow that Qin Fang felt extremely helpless. The appearance of this Exchange function was particularly important and timely.
"Although the exchange rate is a bit ridiculous, it's still acceptable …"
He looked at the exchange rate. Although the exchange rate for each skill was different, overall, the exchange rate was close to a scam.
For some skills that required more proficiency, the exchange rate was relatively small, and for those skills that required less proficiency, the exchange rate was shocking.
However, although this ratio was a bit ridiculous, Qin Fang was not unhappy at all. Instead, he was a little happy …
Experience points were relatively easy to obtain. Skill proficiency, on the other hand, needed to be used to accumulate skill proficiency. With so many skills, it was obviously unrealistic to want to farm skill proficiency one by one. On the other hand, using experience points to exchange for skill proficiency was a very good choice.
Experience could be gained slowly. For example, the trip to Japan soon, and the trip to the Devil's Island in the future, as well as the King of Assassins mission, and so on. These were all very good ways to gain experience. Qin Fang did not have to worry about not gaining experience …
Relatively speaking, the experience points needed to upgrade were not so urgent. Qin Fang's cultivation was at the peak of the master level, but if he wanted to step into the guru level, it would be impossible for him to do so in a short time.
Then, even if his experience reached the requirements to level up, he would not be able to level up …
In this way, it was very cost-effective to exchange for skill proficiency. Qin Fang had some skills that needed to be improved urgently, but Qin Fang had never had the time to slowly grind for skill proficiency, or perhaps it was too tiring to grind for skill proficiency. Now that he could directly exchange for skill proficiency, it was quite cost-effective.
In addition to skill proficiency, experience could also be exchanged for some rare items.
However, Qin Fang looked at it and finally shook his head. It was undeniable that many of those rare items were extremely practical.
However, the exchange rate was ten times or a hundred times more ridiculous than the exchange rate for skill proficiency. For example, Qin Fang saw the "Brick II" at the front, which was the evolved version of the "Hooligan's Brick" in Qin Fang's hand. The brick had a super stun effect. The experience required to exchange for it was enough for Qin Fang to level up from level 6 to level 7 …
Of course, there was also the "Brick Evolution Talisman" that required a lot less experience. It was only one-fifth of the "Brick Evolution Talisman".
Qin Fang already had a brick in his hand. If he used this Evolution Talisman, he could evolve it into the "Brick II". However, as Qin Fang's strength increased, the brick's stun rate was so low that it made one's hair stand on end. Therefore, even if the Evolution Talisman did not require a lot of experience, Qin Fang still would not exchange for it …
With so much experience, he would rather directly upgrade a skill from Beginner level to Advanced level … This was more cost-effective!
