[Dog Yaksha’s Skin: 20,000 Player Reputation Points]
Just when Mo Fan was getting ready to buy Dog Yaksha’s skin…
[System Notification: Your Kuang Dao’s skin has expired. Appearance, skills, and stats bonuses are inactive. Please purchase it again to extend the time limit.]
What the heck, it’s already 24 hours since I last bought this skin?
Mo Fan looked at his own appearance as he gradually returned to his original form.
He could not help but feel a little regretful.
Kuang Dao’s skin cost 10,000 Reputation Points.
He would need a long time to farm so many Reputation Points.
“I’ll buy a Dog Yaksha’s skin first. Kuang Dao’s skin can only be delayed.”
Dog Yaksha’s skin was worth 20,000 Reputation points.
It was twice as expensive as Kuang Dao’s skin.
Fortunately, he obtained 5000 Reputation Points from killing Dog Yaksha just now.
He had about 20,632 Reputation Points on hand.
He chose to buy it!
-20000 Player Reputation Points!
[System Notification: Congratulations on obtaining “Dog Yaksha’s Skin”!]
[Dog Yaksha’s Skin: After using it, you can disguise yourself as the Diamond Boss Dog Yaksha.]
[Spiritual Attack +2]
[Spiritual Defense +2]
[Increases Spiritual Power Cultivation Speed by 1 point per minute]
[Additional skills obtained after using this skin: “Fog – Injury of Wind”, “Fog – Explosive Destruction”, “Fog – Dragon Scale Iron Crushing Fang”]
[After using this skin, there is a chance of being detected by the King of Dense Fog.]
[Time Limit: 7 Day]
[Skin Companion (1): Lovers in both past and present life.]
[Chrystem (Collected) / Dog Yaksha (Collected)]
[Companion Attribute (Activated)]
[Health Points +20,000]
[Attack +1000]
[Defense +1000]
[Skin Companion (2): Ancient Dense Fog]
[Dog Yaksha (Collected) / King of Dense Fog (Not Collected)]
[Companion Attribute (Not Activated)]
[Spiritual Attack +800]
[Spiritual Defense +800]
[Increases Spiritual Power Cultivation Speed by 20 points per minute]
Mo Fan’s mouth went wide open as he looked at the attributes and companion bonuses of this skin. He originally thought that this skin would only increase the basic attributes like the other skins, but he did not expect it to also increase Spiritual Attack and Spiritual Defense.
In addition, this skin also increased Spiritual Power Cultivation Speed by one point. As long as he wore his skin, his cultivation speed would double that of other players at the same level.
Mo Fan knew how valuable Spiritual Attack and Spiritual Defense were.
They corresponded to damage bonuses and damage reductions respectively.
And this Dog Yaksha’s skin had a second companion, which gave a bonus of 800 Spiritual Attack and Spiritual Defense!
This was not an attack or a defense bonus, but pure damage!
The actual damage caused and taken were increased and reduced using percentages. In short, the damage bonus was as high as 800%, and the damage reduction was as high as 800%.
It was terrifying, to say the least!
Mo Fan felt that this was even more awesome than the skin companion bonus of Kuang Dao’s.
200,000 points in all three attributes compared to 800% damage bonus and reduction, which was stronger?
In the early stages of the game, it might be the former.
But in the later stages? The latter would definitely be stronger.
Who was this King of Dense Fog?
Could it be a Super Boss on the same level as War God Long Jian?
Sigh…
No matter what it was—he probably would not be able to come into contact with such a big shot.

Mo Fan shook his head and chuckled as put on Dog Yaksha’s skin.
His body grew larger and larger. He eventually transformed into a dog-faced humanoid monster that looked exactly like Dog Yaksha.
He looked at his own figure and rubbed his head.
Mo Fan could not help but sigh.
Would this dog head protect him?
He had just equipped it manually…
At this moment, the Iron Crushing Fang in his hand trembled slightly.
It was as if it was saying: With me here, I’ll protect you with my life!
Mo Fan’s lips twitched…
…
After killing Dog Yaksha, he obtained a few Dog Fiend Bloodline Fragments.
[Grade 1 Dog Fiend Bloodline Fragment: 10/10 (Can Be Fused)]
Dog Yaksha was an avatar of the King of Dense Fog, so he did not know what its bloodline was like. Mo Fan removed Dog Yaksha’s skin and revealed his true body.
Then, he clicked on the fusion button.
Just like before, his body was stirred by a mysterious force.
However, the commotion this time was stronger than before.
Mo Fan felt as if his body was being pulled apart by a giant hand and he found the experience extremely painful and unbearable.
In the gaps between the snake scales on his body, dog fur grew out.
Their appearance filled him with energy.
The shape of his face had also changed drastically.
His nose had become somewhat sharp, and his mouth had grown quite a bit forward.
The only part that did not change was his eyes.
Hmm…
His appearance had become even more interesting!
If he appeared like this in front of girls, would they be scared to tears?
And what if he attacked them with his current strength?
They would probably cry for a long time after being insta-killed, right?
Mo Fan could clearly feel it.
This Dog Yaksha’s bloodline was not just a bit stronger than the bloodlines he merged with before!
It could be seen from the changes in his body.
Just when Mo Fan thought that the bloodline fusion was complete…
A pair of huge eyes suddenly appeared in the sky.
The eyes stared directly at him.
A debuff immediately appeared on Mo Fan.
[Dense Fog’s Might: You are within the vision of the King of Dense Fog. Suppressed by Divine Might, you are forced to kneel for 5 seconds. A god cannot be blasphemed!]
Mo Fan fell to his knees uncontrollably.
What!
What is going on!
To hell with the god who cannot be blasphemed!
“Get… get up!”
Mo Fan’s eyes turned red. He wanted to stand up forcefully but he could not move at all.
These five seconds felt like an eternity.
Previously, he had all kinds of speculations about Divine Might.
He never expected that something like this would happen.
Was this the power of a god?
A cold female voice suddenly came from the sky.
It flew into Mo Fan’s ears and echoed like rumbling thunder.
“My bloodline cannot be stolen!”
Then—before Mo Fan could complain about the gender of the King of Dense Fog—his blood started to boil.
-10,000 (Dog Fiend Bloodline Damage)
-10,000 (Dog Fiend Bloodline Damage)
-10,000 (Dog Fiend Bloodline Damage)
…
Mo Fan’s HP sharply fell.
At this rate, he would die in a few seconds!
What the heck?!
This woman—the King of Dense Fog—came to mess with him personally?
What should he do now?
Just as Mo Fan was about to curse, a red cloud appeared in the sky and rushed over.
“Dense Fog! Don’t be so rampant!”
“How dare you come to the First Realm instead of staying in the Upper Realms!”

“Do you have a death wish?!”
After the red cloud arrived, it turned into an elegant and handsome young man.
He looked at the pair of enormous eyes in the sky and shouted loudly.
Mo Fan realized that his blood had finally stopped boiling. His body became cold once again.
It was good that he did not die!
Humph!
If you can’t kill me, I will find a way to kill you in the future!
…
“Unfettered One! You’re so disrespectful to your elders, you’re simply looking down on me!”
A huge palm print appeared beneath the pair of huge eyes in the sky.
It slapped towards the elegant youth.
Mo Fan looked at the palm print and his jaw almost dropped on the floor.
However, the Unfettered One’s next attack stunned him even more!
An extremely agile red line of fire appeared close to the Unfettered One.
It shot towards the palm print.
When the palm and the red line of fire collided, the red line instantly pierced through the former.
And it did not slow down at all as it headed straight for the giant eye.
The huge palm print that was pierced through cracked like glass inch by inch before turning into light crystals that soon disappeared into the wind.
The giant eyes blinked at the sight, then it disappeared.
The King of Dense Fog replied with a snort: “Humph! I shall take my leave then!”
When the Unfettered One saw this—he retracted his line of fire—his expression remained indecipherable.
He then looked deeply at Mo Fan and said, “Kid, you’re on your own now!”
Then, he turned into a red cloud and disappeared into the horizon.
Mo Fan smacked his lips and gulped.
What the f*ck, who were they? How could they be so strong?
[System Notification: You have observed a battle among gods. Having gained some comprehension, you are rewarded with 3000 Spiritual Power Points!]
What the f*ck, he could obtain so much spiritual power just by watching them fight?
How strong would their main bodies be?
The second skin companion of Dog Yaksha’s skin required him to kill the King of Dense Fog…
Ah, this…
He could only think about it in the future…
Right, he’ll think about it in the future!
After all, he was not on the same level as that woman from earlier.
Mo Fan looked at the Dog Fiend Bloodline he had just obtained.
[Talent “Upper Dog Fiend Bloodline (Incomplete)”: 35% chance of permanently gaining 2 Attack per enemy killed. The effect is doubled when an enemy is killed while Divine Might is active!]
Oh, my, God!
How f*cking powerful!
After seeing this Dog Fiend Bloodline’s talent, Mo Fan was invigorated.
The bloodline talent had just appeared, yet it was already at the Upper level. After killing someone, there was a chance to permanently increase his attack power.
It was truly a ridiculous talent!
But it was a pity that this bloodline talent was incomplete.
It was probably the work of that Fog woman.
Otherwise, this talent would be even more absurd!
Every skill related to gods and demons that he had encountered so far had been… had been awesome.
Mo Fan looked at his mission panel.
He had three ongoing missions:
[Legendary Mission: [Request from Demonic Might Sin Demon] (Uncompleted)]
[Hidden Mission: Divine Might Kuang Dao’s Vengeance (1) (Uncompleted)]
[Normal Mission: Find Miss Dong (Unique) (Uncompleted)]
One was a Demonic Might Mission and the other was a Divine Might Mission.
There was also a mission to find Miss Dong.
Right now, he had no leads on how to complete the Divine Might and Divine Might missions.
He could only go and do Miss Dong’s mission first.
After all, Miss Dong was supposedly at Maple Leaf City.
…
Just as Mo Fan was about to leave, a white light appeared in the sky and enveloped Dog Yaksha’s corpse.
Then, it slowly rose into the sky before turning into a stream of light that disappeared all of a sudden. Dog Yaksha didn’t seem to be capable of respawning.
Mo Fan found it strange.
He did not expect the dog’s corpse to fly away just like that.
“What does that mean?”
“Why did they take Dog Yaksha’s corpse away?”
“Could it be…”
Looking at the place where Dog Yaksha disappeared, Mo Fan fell into deep thoughts.
[Hello, Esteemed Player Bunao Biaoyin, the ‘Vengeful Spirit Set’ has been auctioned successfully. After deducting the 1% transaction fee, your earnings are $47,718.]
[…your earnings are $32,154.]
[…your earnings are $23,762.]
[…your earnings are $18,196.]
…
A series of notifications interrupted Mo Fan’s thoughts.
It was only then that Mo Fan remembered that the 24-hour auction time for the Vengeful Spirit Set was up. He had put all of his 1538 sets of equipment on auction.
System notifications appeared like a flash flood.
Mo Fan’s heart burned with passion as he read the messages that kept coming in.
Although these sets did not make him as much money as before—it was still a lot of money!
Mo Fan stared at the notifications in excitement.
Hahaha, how satisfying!
He had just bought a house and spent all his money.
Now, he was rich once again!
Oh right, what did he want to do previously?
He had already bought a gaming capsule!
He had also bought a house!
How about hiring a beautiful housekeeper… he did not seem to have done that yet?
Thinking of this, the corners of Mo Fan’s mouth curled up involuntarily.
Hmm, that’s right…
He should get a housekeeper after going offline today.
The only question was—would his little sister agree to it?
He would discuss it with her later.
After all, she was not at home during the day.
She should be okay with him hiring someone to take care of his daily needs, right?
Mo Fan nodded repeatedly.
The notifications continued for more than ten minutes.
Just as Mo Fan’s eyes started to blur, it finally stopped!
Mo Fan glanced at the balance in his bank account and quickly closed his eyes.
Rubbing his eyes, he looked again after a few seconds.
“Tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands, million, ten… ten million!”
“Oh goodness!”
“I’m now a multi-millionaire with over ten million in wealth?”
Mo Fan counted again and confirmed that there was no mistake!
A total of $23,533,046.62!
In other words, the 1538 Vengeful Spirit Sets were sold at an average price of more than $15,000.
It completely exceeded Mo Fan’s expectations.
Previously, he thought that it would be good if he could sell all of them.
But he did not expect that there would be so many rich people in this game.
After calming himself down, Mo Fan walked forward.
Dog Yaksha’s death had considerably thinned the fog in the Dense Fog Forest.
The further Mo Fan went, the thinner the fog became.
After a few hundred meters, the debuff [Miasma of Fog] on Mo Fan’s body completely disappeared.
[System Notification: Congratulations on becoming the eighth brave warrior to pass the Dense Fog Forest! You have obtained the title “Dense Fog Kid”!]
[System Notification: Congratulations on leaving the beginner village and arriving at Maple Leaf City!]
[System Notification Once you’ve reached Level 10, you can go to Maple Leaf City to change your class. After changing your class, you will be able to unlock more ways to play!]
Holy sh*t!
Seven people actually arrived ahead of him?
Although clearing the Dense Fog Forest had been easy for Mo Fan, it should be extremely difficult for the players. The first place of the Level Ranking Board—Sealed Dust—whom Mo Fan had met in the Dense Fog Forest earlier, was still fighting inside of the forest.
In other words, it could not be them who have gone here earlier than him.
Who were these seven people then?
In ‘Boundless World’, there truly were countless hidden experts.
Those guys who preferred to remain low-key were truly not simple!
Mo Fan looked at the city in the distance. He could not help but sigh.
Could a monster like him go to the city to change his class?
Should he… give it a try?
At this thought, Mo Fan put on his human skin and walked forward.
There was still a fog behind him and he could not see what was happening inside.
There was a faint path ahead, winding and turning, it extended into the distant Maple Leaf City.
There were a few wild monsters on both sides of the path.
These monsters looked special.
They had a long body and an umbrella-like head that was covered with colorful spots.
However, it looked like they were infected with a certain illness…
Mo Fan used his Demon Eyes.
[Beautiful Mushroom Spirit (Level 13)]
[It looks very beautiful but is extremely poisonous. Don’t provoke it.]
[Health: 18,000/18,000]
[Attack: 324-1136]
[Defense: 102-178]
[Mushroom Poison: Attacks have a 20% chance to cause 1000 Poison Damage, Duration: 3 seconds]
Mushroom?
Was this bloodline worth fusing with?
Mo Fan could still insta-kill these Mushroom Spirits even without Kuang Dao’s skin.
He just did not know if they would drop bloodline fragments.
Mo Fan rushed over and insta-killed one.
-37,486
[Beautiful Mushroom Spirit (Level 13) has been killed. Obtained 762 Spiritual Energy Points, 1 Mushroom Spirit Bloodline Fragment (Grade 0), 1 Star Fragment (Star Level 0), and 1 Player Reputation Point.]
A bloodline fragment dropped!
Mo Fan immediately changed his extra Grade 0 Bloodline Fragments for nine of Mushroom Spirit Bloodline Fragments.
[Grade 0 Mushroom Spirit Bloodline Fragment: 10/10 (Can Be Fused)]
Hehehe… they look the same.
So after fusing the bloodline, would it promote a growth in that body part too?
Thinking of this, Mo Fan hurriedly clicked on the fusion button.

Legend of the Seven
Humans were cast out of Eden for committing the original sin. Now Seven will answer, should Humanity live forever? But first, join Team Six in their rescue mission turned daring prison break from death. Author's Corner: Welcome to the Legend of the Seven series #LOTSseries, my Guardians.This is my first novel turned webnovel. I'm returning to this fictional world after a 6-year hiatus with a lot of personal growth and insight. Insights gained from being a lifetime reader.I was the kid who read Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. I was the new adult who read I Shall Seal the Heavens and Ark. I've lost count of how many fictional worlds I've visited and lived through for I grew up on western novels but discovered eastern novels in my college years. This is my attempt to marry those two literary styles.It's my hope that this journey becomes more than just a book. If you're reading this simply expecting an ego power trip then turn back. There'll be action but with a lot of metaphysics and discussion on life with its accompanying issues. I strive to ground and make this webnovel relatable with verisimilitude. This webnovel is about choice. Freewill and its consequences. I give my characters autonomy to do and be themselves which sometimes leads to me rewriting and replotting because of pleasant surprises from my characters. Even the character who dies within the chapter they are introduced can have a massive impact with several ripples. So, there'll be stories on love and loss, hope and despair, but most importantly, it'll be a story. Release schedule: M, W, F - I aim for afternoon (1pm to 6pm) MST. I'm working on a project, codenamed "Guides' Sanctum", to make LOTSseries even more alive with special voice-overs, extra stories, behind the scene stuff, and so much more. But it can only come online when certain benchmarks are reached. The listed goals will help us get there. Goals:50 readers will unlock 4 chapters a week - Extra release on Thursday100 readers will unlock 5 chapters a week - Extra release on Tuesday250 readers will unlock 6 chapters a week - Extra release on Saturday500 readers and Project Guides' Sanctum comes online!Links:Lotsseries.blogspot.comSocial:@tonyswag0 - twitter@lotsseries - FacebookI'm thrilled at what is happening and what is still to come. Never be afraid to drop a comment. My DM is open. I'll work to keep this work free to access but I ask you to enjoy it from official sources so that you can be part of the discussion. There's magic in reading together to form a shared experience.Again, welcome aboard, my Guardians.
