Chen Tian looked at the information of the dual blades.
Nether Orchid Ghost Blades
Strength +150
Agility +150
Weapon Mastery +130
Simple stats, but for Chen Tian, having a weapon and not having one were two different things.
He then looked at the dual blades in his hands. A Nether Orchid aura flowed from them, emanating a chilling aura. At the same time, each side of the blades bore a skull imprint.
These dual blades seemed extraordinary; it was Chen Tian's intuition that led him to buy them.
"Now that I've bought the weapons, it's time to get back to the quests."
Chen Tian mumbled, then clicked a few times on the screen, instantly transforming into a beam of light and disappearing from the shop.
Simultaneously, outside the secret chamber, Chen Tian's figure appeared. As time flowed, a team of dozens appeared outside the chamber door.
Clad in silver armor, with overwhelming morale and an imposing presence, the entire team looked like a disciplined army.
"Tramp, tramp, tramp!"
Their synchronized footsteps brought them before Chen Tian. Leading them was a general clad in silver armor and a helmet.
"Are you the accomplice of that traitor? The Empire is purging traitors. Leave quickly, or don't blame us for being ruthless!"
"Do you choose to abandon the quest?"
A panel appeared before Chen Tian. In the game "Epoch of Time," players could abandon quests midway. This was an option for players.
Players who found the game too difficult could abandon quests mid-way. The quest would then be available for other players to accept and complete.
Chen Tian did not hesitate and clicked on "No."
Why would he hesitate? This quest was his. Moreover, Chen Tian wasn't that kind of person.
As Chen Tian chose "No," the leading general's aura intensified, engulfing the entire space with a clamorous presence.
Chen Tian extended his index finger and tapped the air in front of the general.
Instantly, the general's stats and information appeared before Chen Tian in a panel.

"Hiss!"
Chen Tian was astonished by the general's stats panel. His basic stats exceeded over a thousand, with some ordinary stats nearing two thousand.
Although NPCs and monsters in any game were always stronger than players, Chen Tian felt this quest was not something one person could complete.
It was fortunate he had accepted this quest; others would likely not even get past this stage.
"It's almost dark. It seems there are two waves of attack per day, meaning four more waves to endure."
Chen Tian looked at the sky as night quietly descended.
But it was precisely at night that Chen Tian felt more excited.
The opponent's stats were strong, but it was night, and Chen Tian felt he wouldn't lose.
"Come! Let me kill to my heart's content!"
Chen Tian's blood boiled. Instantly, countless starlight adorned the night sky, transforming into starlight that entered Chen Tian's body.
Chen Tian's stats suddenly displayed an Inspiration value, reaching its maximum of 500.
"Fighting Spirit" and "Body Reinforcement" were activated simultaneously, and he stood before the soldiers like a child of starlight.
The Imperial General looked at Chen Tian, a cold glint in his eyes.
"Those who obstruct the Empire shall die!"
"Kill them! Soldiers!"
"Kill!"
Countless shouts echoed, and a great tremor shook the ground. Dozens of soldiers charged towards Chen Tian.
Chen Tian's heart raced as he looked at the thirty-plus soldiers before him.
"I wonder how much experience these soldiers are worth!"
He clenched his hands in the air, and instantly the Nether Orchid Ghost Blades appeared in his hands. Chen Tian crossed his arms at his chest.
A massive cross-shaped blade of Nether Orchid aura shot out, instantly reaching the soldiers.
As dust settled, the soldiers, surprisingly, were unharmed by the attack. The reason was their armor, which provided thirty points of defense.
This batch of soldiers was even stronger than the previous ones, with defense values of a full thirty points.
Chen Tian subtly moved his feet, and his speed surged.
Activating the skill "Swift Wind Shadow," he became like a phantom, a specter, darting into the crowd.
In the center of the formation, Chen Tian held his dual blades crossed at his chest, spinning at high speed.
Countless blades shot out from his body.
Skill: Dual Blade Flowing Cloud Slash.
This first attack phase was suitable for group combat. As Chen Tian spun, countless blades seemed to attack relentlessly, filling the air and rushing towards the soldiers.
The sound of "clang, clang" echoed on the soldiers' armor. Cracks appeared on their armor, and some even bore massive blade marks.
Then, Chen Tian exploded upwards, appearing in the sky. His dual blades suddenly merged, forming a massive phantom long sword.
Gripping the hilt of the phantom sword with both hands, he struck down.
A huge explosion erupted, and countless damage numbers flashed before Chen Tian's eyes.
Skill damage exceeding one thousand continuously appeared.
When the explosion subsided, Chen Tian's figure reappeared on the ground. All the soldiers had dissipated into light.
The system's voice continually rang in his mind.
"Each soldier provided nearly 1000 experience points, not bad. But I need twenty thousand experience points to level up now, so this is far from enough!"
Chen Tian said, still dissatisfied. Over ten thousand experience points were still not enough.
Only the general remained on the field, and Chen Tian met his gaze.
This enemy was the most difficult to deal with. Aside from their defense, the opponent also had skills and even the ability to think.
Such enemies were the most terrifying.
"Boy, it seems I need to deal with you myself."
A cold glint appeared in the Imperial General's eyes. He clenched his left hand, and a light flashed. A silver-white long spear appeared in his hand. The missing silver-white spear was etched with patterns, and a majestic aura emanated from its body.
A white rose was carved at the spearhead, and at the end of the handle, it read: Cold Light Silver Spear!
Holding the spear with one hand, the general became like a general on the battlefield, and the entire atmosphere of the battleground turned into a war zone.
A terrifying aura permeated the air, with morale soaring. It was as if he were a thousand, ten thousand men, an army in himself.
Chen Tian also became cautious. Before Chen Tian could react, the opponent's figure had already vanished.
"Not good!"
Chen Tian exclaimed instantly and crossed his dual blades before his eyes.
"Ding!"
"Zzzzt!"
