Chapter 99: Chapter 99: Transitioning to Sword Immortal and Mastering Sword Flight
?
War Soul: A powerful physical burst class that grants an additional 10 points to critical strike chance and 5 points to strength with each level gained.
Martial Saint: A physical class that boosts physical defense and attack by 10% and adds 3 points to strength and 2 points to constitution with each level gained.
Sword Immortal: Master of swordsmanship and sword flight, gaining 2 points to strength and 1 point to each of the other three base attributes with each level. This is the most balanced class.
Divine Strategist: An archer class that increases range by 10%, attack speed by 10%, and adds 4 points to strength and 1 point to agility, offering greater burst damage and lethality compared to a standard archer.
Celestial Master: Similar to the mage class but with higher burst potential.
Illusionist: A control class that can seal an enemy's physical and magical attacks.
Alchemist: Similar to the priest class, but more versatile, mastering various healing skills and potion-making talents.
Beast Tamer: Similar to the Illusionist, but focuses on controlling beasts and monsters.
All of these classes are exceptionally powerful, with each level granting an additional 5 attribute points.
John was particularly drawn to the Sword Immortal class, the most balanced of them all.
"Thank you, sir," John expressed his gratitude to Chris as he selected the Sword Immortal class scroll.
Chris nodded in approval, saying, "The Sword Immortal class is indeed a good fit for you." Afterward, Chris chose the Martial Saint class scroll for himself and then addressed the others, "You all should choose a class scroll that suits you."
"Father, I'd like the Martial Saint scroll," Peter said eagerly, eyeing the scroll in Chris's hand. "Are you trying to take what's mine?" Chris glared at him and immediately used the scroll.
Peter protested silently but didn't dare to say more. He deciding on the other scroll with hesitation.
Armstrong quickly snatched up the War Soul scroll.
It thrilled with its high burst potential and physical damage bonuses. He felt confident that he could defeat Ritchie if they were to face off again.
"Are you trying to take what's mine?" Peter mimicked Chris, angrily scolding Armstrong.
Although he wasn't actually interested in the War Soul class.
He realizing that the War Soul class wouldn't suit his martial talent.
After some hesitation, he decided on the Celestial Master scroll,
Tracy opted for the Alchemist class, drawn to its healing capabilities and versatility, which suited her nature.
Sini was tempted by the Divine Strategist class scroll. The idea of a long-range combat class excited her, but she hesitated to give up her Shadow Assassin class.
"I think I'll stick with the Assassin class; it suits me better," she said, reluctantly looking away from the scroll.
John, however, handed her the Divine Strategist scroll, saying, "Hold onto it for now. I'll help you find an Origin Stone so you can have two classes."
"Really?" Sini's eyes lit up with excitement.
She was thrilled at the prospect of having the Divine Strategist class and happily accepted the scroll.
"Senior, do you have any suitable candidates in mind for these two class transition scrolls?" John asked as he looked at the remaining two scrolls.
The Illusionist and the Beast Tamer.
John thought that the Beast Tamer class, with its ability to enhance the power of beasts, would be perfect for Jean.
Jean, being a Flower Fairy of the Beast Clan, naturally had the ability to control beasts, making this class an ideal match for her.
As for the Illusionist class, he considered giving it to Ada.
Although Ada was a princess, her strength was lacking, and she had no real means of saving herself in dangerous situations.
"They're yours," Chris said without hesitation, handing over the remaining two class scrolls to John.
"Thank you," John expressed his gratitude.
Chris then asked, "What's your plan from here?"
Chris had originally intended to pass the position of Sect Master of Saint Martial Sect to John, seeing it as a strategic move to unite the Ancient Martial Arts families under one banner.
However, John had declined the offer, so Chris had settled on making him the Vice Sect Master instead.
"First, I'll complete my class advancement and then deal with the hostile forces in the world of Gods," John replied calmly. The hostile forces he referred to included not only various guilds but also the Dark Humans.
Once he advanced to a fourth-tier class and gained the Blessing of the Archmage talent, his abilities would break through to the advanced level, enabling him to confront the Dark Humans head-on.
"I want to go with you, old man," Tracy immediately chimed in.
She eager to follow John and accelerate her own power growth.
Sini, too, looked at John with anticipation, clearly wanting to join them.
Armstrong felt a pang of envy, but after glancing at Tracy and Sini, he decided against it.
He didn't want to be the third wheel.
Besides, there was much to do in Saint Martial Sect, which had just been established, and his presence was needed there.
John left The Land of Elves with the two women, mounted Avis, and set off for the depths of Eternal Forest in search of fourth-tier epic bosses.
Slaying five of these epic bosses would allow him to advance to a fourth-tier class.
But before that, he needed to transition to the Sword Immortal class.
John took out the Origin Stone and used it immediately.
[You have used the Origin Stone, unlocking a third class choice.]
[Current available options: Knight, Warrior, Archer, Martial Artist, Priest]
Since he had joined Saint Martial Sect, the Martial Artist class option had been added to his
list.
However, John didn't choose any of these. Instead, he directly used the Sword Immortal class
scroll.
[You have transitioned to the rare hidden class, Sword Immortal.]
[Sword Immortal: Rare hidden class. Each level increases strength by +2 and the other three base attributes by +1; attacks gain an additional 10% physical damage and 10% magical
damage.]
[You have learned the basic skill Sword Control; offensive skills Unrivaled Sword Dance, Infinite Sword Array, and Flying Sword Strike.]
[You have reached the peak of the third tier at level 100. Sword Immortal class enhancement: Constitution +100, Strength +200, Spirit +100, Agility +100.]
[Class advancement quest unlocked: Defeat 5 level 100+ epic bosses to advance to fourth-tier
Sword Immortal.]
As the notification flashed before him, John's strength saw a significant boost.
The Sword Immortal class had directly unlocked his fourth-tier advancement quest, just like with his Wrath of the Gods Mage and Demon Slayer Assassin classes, requiring him to hunt
down five fourth-tier epic bosses.
What surprised John the most were the skills he learned.
[Sword Control: Level 2 (Blessing of the Archmage +1 level), Basic; Basic Sword Immortal skill that increases Sword Immortal skill damage by 2%.]
[Unrivaled Sword Dance: Level 2 (Blessing of the Archmage +1 level), Basic Sword Immortal
skill; Deals 120% physical damage based on strength + 20% magical damage based on spirit to an enemy; consumes 100 mana, 10-second cooldown.]
[Infinite Sword Array: Level 2 (Blessing of the Archmage +1 level), Basic Sword Immortal skill; Deals 90% physical damage based on strength + 10% magical damage based on spirit to multiple enemies; consumes 200 mana, 20-second cooldown.]
[Flying Sword Strike: Level 2 (Blessing of the Archmage +1 level), Basic Sword Immortal skill;
Deals 120% physical damage based on strength + 20% magical damage based on spirit to a
single target; consumes 100 mana, 10-second cooldown.]
Apart from Sword Control, all of these were powerful damage-dealing skills with added
magical damage.
The Unrivaled Sword Dance was a single-target attack, the Infinite Sword Array was an area attack, and Flying Sword Strike was a ranged attack skill.
The Sword Immortal class had it all-physical damage, magical damage, close-range skills, long-range skills, and area-of-effect skills-making it the most balanced and powerful
hidden class.
Time to level up the skills!
John checked his skill points and saw that he had accumulated 12,044 points.
Moreover, he still had over 7,000 skill stones that he hadn't used yet.
With three classes and a total of 16 skills, once he advanced to the fourth tier, he would have
enough skill points to max out his intermediate skills and even break through to advanced
skills.
He couldn't believe it. With so many skills under his belt and more than enough skill points to
max them out.
His situation was a far cry from his previous life. Back then, he had only mastered four skills,
and even then, he never had enough skill points.
The contrast made it clear just how far he had come.
[Sword Control has been upgraded to Basic Level 10. Blessing of the Archmage has broken
through to Intermediate Level 1, unlocking the skill, Sword Flight.] [Sword Flight: A skill linked to Sword Control, non-upgradable; allows the user to stand on
their sword and fly through the air; consumes 100 mana per second.]
The notification appeared, leaving John momentarily stunned.
Sword Flight? That was a technique straight out of legends, something only immortal
cultivators were said to possess.
Could it be that his Sword Immortal class was actually a path to immortality?
Excited by the thought, John pulled out the Sword of Divinity and Demons, turning to the two
women with a grin. "Watch this," he said, clearly pleased with himself.
The women looked at him in confusion as he leaped off Avis's back.
"John!" "Old man!"
Both women screamed in shock. They were thousands of meters in the air, and while John was
strong, he couldn't fly. Falling from such a height would be certain death.
"Avis, catch him..." Sini began, but her words trailed off as a figure swiftly soared past her-
John.
"Old man, you...you can fly?" Tracy gasped in disbelief, staring at John, who was now gliding through the air, standing on his sword.
Sini swallowed hard, equally astonished. "Sword Flight? Isn't that something out of those
cultivation legends?"
"Master, how are you doing this?" Avis, wide-eyed, flew a circle around John, utterly
bewildered.
John's actions completely upended everything Avis thought he knew.
He couldn't comprehend how his master, who clearly didn't have wings, was managing to fly.
"Old man, I want to fly on a sword too!" Tracy stretched out her arms, looking at John with
eager anticipation.
The Sword of Divinity and Demons was a broad sword, more than capable of carrying two
people.
John nodded and extended his hand, pulling Tracy onto the sword with him.
"Ah!" Tracy gasped as she nearly lost her balance, her body wobbling precariously. In her
panic, she grabbed onto John's arm tightly.
John steadied the sword, ensuring a smooth flight, but soon he grew restless with the status
quo.
He glanced over at Avis and said, "Let's have a race. Let's see who can fly faster!" "You're on!" Avis agreed without hesitation, confident that there was no way John could
outfly him.
Whoosh!
With a powerful flap of his wings, Avis surged forward, the wind howling in his wake as he rapidly accelerated.
He turned his head back, ready to boast about his speed, only to see John and Tracy speeding past him in a blur.
"What the—!" Avis cursed, his massive frame instinctively contracting to reduce air resistance as he pushed himself to catch up with John.
"Come on, Avis, you can't lose to the master!" Sini cheered from atop Avis, urging him on.
Avis focused intently on the two figures ahead, straining every muscle to close the gap, but the distance between them continued to grow.
Riding the sword, John and Tracy zipped through the sky at lightning speed. The fierce winds
whipped around them like sharp blades as they cut through the sky, the landscape below quickly becoming a blur beneath them.
