#107 - Chapter 107 Special Skill: Clone Technique

As Shen Xingyan completed the payment of 100 silver coins, Xingyuan's prompt quickly disappeared, replaced by a small box-like icon that appeared abruptly in front of him.

“This should be the random skill mentioned in the prompt,” Shen Xingyan guessed subconsciously, looking at the unfamiliar icon, after all, this was the only reward, and nothing else was possible.

“But why is the random skill in the shape of a small box? And how should I operate it next?” Facing this strange icon, Shen Xingyan was unsure of what to do next.

However, just as he was feeling puzzled, the small box in front of him began to spin rapidly, so fast that he could hardly see it clearly. At the same time, the icon began to emit an increasingly dazzling light, giving Shen Xingyan the feeling that it was about to explode.

Seeing this, although Shen Xingyan knew that the icon was unlikely to harm him, he still took a step back instinctively, maintaining a safe distance from it.

In just a few seconds, the spinning speed of the small box reached its peak, and the final result was just as Shen Xingyan had felt.

After emitting a burst of intense light, the small box icon exploded instantly.

When the light dissipated, a small human-like icon stood quietly in the place where the small box had been.

Shen Xingyan was about to step forward to examine it when the small human icon seemed to sense something. Before Shen Xingyan could react, it instantly disappeared into his forehead.

Startled, Shen Xingyan quickly touched his forehead, but there was nothing unusual. This made him, who was experiencing such a situation for the first time, smile wryly and say, “Are the skills rewarded by the Xingyuan world so special?”

Just as he was about to check his attribute panel, a prompt sound from Xingyuan rang out:

“Congratulations, you have obtained the special skill ---- Clone Technique (Rare): Consumes half of your original energy to create a clone. The clone's attributes are equal to the value of the original energy consumed (deducting 1 point if insufficient). The clone lasts for 2 hours, and the skill has a cooldown time of 10 hours.”

After hearing Xingyuan's prompt, Shen Xingyan was stunned in place, a trace of confusion flashing across his face.

He immediately reacted and hurriedly opened the attribute panel, looking in disbelief at the special skill — Clone Technique! — located below the talent skills.

After reading the skill description of Clone Technique word by word, Shen Xingyan rubbed his eyes hard, afraid of making a mistake, and looked at it again.

After repeating it several times, he finally confirmed that he had not seen it wrong. At this moment, his face was filled with disbelief.

“Special skill Clone Technique? How can this skill be so strong? Are all rare skills like this?” Shen Xingyan thought in shock.

“Creating a clone with all attributes equal to half of my original energy, such attributes are too abnormal! Although the clone has a limited existence time of only two hours, unlike the little skeletons that can exist forever, the increase in attributes is really high! Even if it's just a temporary boost, it's beyond my imagination!”

Thinking of this, Shen Xingyan couldn't help but look at the original energy attribute in the attribute panel, calculating with some glee:

“With 40 points of original energy, wouldn't that mean I can create a clone with all attributes at 20? Such attributes are almost the same as my level 11 self!”

Such a skill might be ordinary for other professionals, after all, very few professionals would add their precious free attribute points to original energy.

In this era where strength is king, almost all professionals add points to the four major attributes that have more attack power, and even life professionals are no exception.

But this skill is different for Shen Xingyan.

Early on, due to the increase in the number of farmlands, Shen Xingyan had to add all his free attribute points to original energy in order to maximize the effect of his professional skills.

This also made his original energy reach 40 points at level 11, its value far exceeding what professionals at his stage should have.

Although he initially felt a little regretful, the appearance of perception skills made him more determined to add all his free attribute points to original energy.

Moreover, when the potato broke the record before, he also obtained a 10x increase in original energy cultivation speed, which also indicated that his future original energy improvement speed would exceed most people.

Under the superposition of these two ways to increase original energy, his original energy will become more and more terrifying in the future, which also leads to his body's four major attributes being far lower than those of the same level.

And now he has obtained a clone technique with such clear requirements for original energy, which instantly makes up for his lack of combat ability, and as his original energy increases in the future, his combat ability will become more and more terrifying.

The clone technique rewarded by the Xingyuan world makes his original energy more valuable!

“If I extract the clone technique to the real world, can I send the clone to the outside world to fight enemies for me, while I stay safely in the base? Although the clone's existence time is a bit short, it can still eliminate some disasters!”

The more Shen Xingyan thought about being able to kill disasters in this way, the more excited he became. He subconsciously looked at his wallet, after all, extracting skills requires money.

But when he saw the number of money, his originally passionate emotions suddenly seemed to be poured with a basin of cold water, and he lost his momentum!

Shen Xingyan couldn't help but sigh: “I still have to make money! My current money can't even extract a single attribute point, let alone such a powerful clone skill!”

At this time, Shen Xingyan felt like a hero stumped by a penny.

However, after a while, he cheered up again, comforting himself: “At least with this clone technique, the maintenance tasks of professional skills in the future can be much easier. A clone with all attributes at 20 is enough to top myself in labor efficiency!”

Shen Xingyan wanted to summon the clone to see its specific attributes, but considering that he would have to use his professional skills in less than 10 hours, and he couldn't waste such a labor force in vain, he restrained himself from this idea.
