A flash of white light appeared, and the scenery in front of Ye Lin underwent a dramatic transformation.
Before him was a dense forest, where the leaves cut the sunlight into dappled shadows that fell on the forest floor.
"Random teleportation? This is good. I was worried about keeping my distance from others." Ye Lin stretched lazily and then began his journey of monster slaying.
He hadn't gone far when he encountered a cute, round creature that looked like a cat. It was covered in pink fur and looked like a moving plush toy, likely to melt the hearts of many girls.
"Is this a level one pink leopard cat?"
Ye Lin was not fooled by its appearance. This little thing might look cute, but it was a genuine monster that could easily bite through an adult's throat.
The pink leopard cat rolled on the ground, making a purring sound, trying to attract Ye Lin close so it could launch a fatal strike.
Ye Lin's response was simple; he extended his right hand.
"Forbidden Spell - Apocalypse Thunder!"
Boom!
Thunder rolled down from the sky. The pink leopard cat let out a sharp meow and immediately panicked. What was going on? It just came out to hunt because it was hungry, did it deserve to be struck by lightning?
Facing Ye Lin, who used a forbidden spell at the start, the pink leopard cat could not even escape and was instantly fried by the falling thunder.
[Killed Level 1 Pink Leopard Cat, Reward: 10 Experience Points.]
"Only 10 experience points for killing a level one monster? I need to kill 100 level one monsters to reach level two. This is too slow. Anyway, all my skills are forbidden spells, perhaps I can try venturing deeper into this forest."
Ye Lin turned and disappeared into the dense forest.
"Forbidden Spell - Apocalypse Thunder!"
[Killed Level 2 Killer Bee, Reward: 20 Experience Points]
"Forbidden Spell - Apocalypse Thunder!"
[Killed Level 3 Wolf, Reward: 30 Experience Points]
"Forbidden Spell - Apocalypse Thunder!"
[Killed Level 5 Jungle Harpy, Reward: 50 Experience Points]
In the following time, the peaceful tranquility of the monster-filled forest was broken, ushering in a baptism of thunder. Thunderbolts would occasionally roll down from the distant sky.
Ye Lin pushed forward, indiscriminately using forbidden spells on both level one and level five monsters, emphasizing equality.
As he continuously cast spells, his mastery of Apocalypse Thunder improved, even allowing him to instantly cast it without any preparatory movements.
With such an insane monster-slaying efficiency, Ye Lin quickly reached level two.
It was important to note that he had only been in the novice secret realm for about an hour. On average, he was leveling up once an hour. If this speed was known, it would stun many people.
After leveling up, Ye Lin unlocked a new forbidden spell.
[Name: Ye Lin]
[Class: Forbidden Spell Caster]
[Level: 2 (13.14%)]
[Strength: 20]
[Agility: 30]
[Spirit: 60]
[Class Talent: Infinite Spells, Unlock a Forbidden Spell for Every Level Up.]
[Skills: Forbidden Spell - Apocalypse Thunder, Forbidden Spell - Burning Cycle]
[Forbidden Spell - Apocalypse Thunder: The Forbidden Spell Caster sacrifices themselves, summoning world-ending thunder from the ninth heaven. The more important the sacrificed body part, the higher the level of the summoned thunder, with the highest being the Chaos God Thunder. The power depends on the caster's level and spirit.]
[Forbidden Spell - Burning Cycle: The Forbidden Spell Caster burns their life force, greatly enhancing their strength, agility, and spirit.]
[Note: The Forbidden Spell Caster can cast forbidden spells without any consumption or cooldown.]
And under the new unlocked forbidden spell, there was an additional note.
[Note: The Burning Cycle skill consumes a lot of life force, and once consumed, it cannot be reversed. Please use this skill with caution.]
"Use this skill with caution?"
Ye Lin nodded obediently and then shouted loudly.
"Forbidden Spell - Burning Cycle!"
Blood-red flames appeared around Ye Lin as his life force was continuously burning, even his blood was evaporating into blood flames.
At the same time, his strength, agility, and spirit all doubled, with his spirit directly skyrocketing to a terrifying 120 points.
"What a terrifying forbidden spell! Under the Burning Cycle state, even a level ten monster would find it hard to withstand my full power Apocalypse Thunder!"
Immersed in excitement, Ye Lin did not notice that his hair was rapidly turning white, his skin becoming loose, and his once-clear eyes becoming hazy.
In just five minutes, Ye Lin transformed from a teenager into an old man with white hair.
Ye Lin looked at his withered hands and muttered.
"Five minutes can make me this old? If I don't want to expose myself, I can only keep the Burning Cycle forbidden spell on for about a minute."
Ye Lin did not stop the Burning Cycle but let his life force continue to burn. A strange scene occurred: the old-looking Ye Lin began to grow younger, reversing back to his youthful appearance.
With his immortal body, he possessed infinite life force, so the side effects of the Burning Cycle were negligible to him.
The flaw of an immortal body was obvious, and the flaw of a Forbidden Spell Caster was even more evident. But when a Forbidden Spell Caster combined with an immortal body, it was time for the whole world to experience the terror of forbidden spells flying everywhere!
Ye Lin kept the Burning Cycle on and began a new round of slaughter.
With his 120 points of spirit and the principal's Revelation Ring, his spirit reached a terrifying 130 points. Even summoning the most ordinary thunder had an extremely terrifying power, like a dragon of destruction directly charging down.
Ye Lin now had complete confidence to directly slay through the novice secret realm!
[Killed Level 5 Two-Headed Snake, Reward: 50 Experience Points]
[Killed Level 6 Ironclad Scorpion, Reward: 60 Experience Points]
[Killed Level 6 Centaur, Reward: 60 Experience Points]
As he ventured deeper, the monsters appearing before Ye Lin became increasingly powerful, with the lowest being a level five monster.
But these powerful monsters were as fragile as paper when faced with a level two Ye Lin, almost instantly being killed upon meeting.
A thunderbolt came down, and regardless of the level of the monster, it was reduced to charcoal.
The places Ye Lin passed through even emitted a faint meaty aroma, the smell of monsters being cooked by the high temperature of the thunder.
Ye Lin's slaughtering became more proficient, like a god of thunder descending, lifting his hand to cast a forbidden spell of thunder.
"The novice secret realm is indeed full of danger; this is truly an exhilarating trial!"
