Lu Chao stepped forward to collect the spoils of war.
Without a doubt, the Night-Walking Pig Beast dropped a set of costumes.

=====
In the world of Hongchen, there are no individual equipment pieces such as gloves and helmets, nor are there any fancy accessories such as rings and necklaces. There are only three main types of items: fashion items, back accessories, and pendants.
Fashion items are meant to be worn as a set, while back accessories are large ornaments worn on the back. Lu Chaoding's Ghost Face Short Axe is a back accessory. As for pendants, Lu Chaoding has never seen one before.
"Nine parts! It's complete inside and out!"
Lu Chao selected equipment on the [Marshal Pig] information panel. A flash of light appeared on his body, and he instantly transformed into the [Marshal Pig] outfit, which was predominantly black.
The outfit is rather bulky, with a fishnet-like pattern on the front of the leather armor and pants, and long black fur on the back. The helmet is huge, like a hood, and has a lot of black bristles on the neck, each bristle is very thick and sticks up like hedgehog quills. Matching the helmet is a dark gold pig face mask that can cover the entire face, with only two eye holes. The pig belt is also strange, with a small curled tail attached.
Lu Chaoding felt that he should look a lot like a Predator at this moment. He jumped around and rapped for a while, and felt very comfortable, without feeling clumsy at all.
"Great! This outfit has excellent stats. Although the overall look is a bit lacking, I still prefer this 'Marshal Pig' outfit to that sailor dress!"
Lu Chao was satisfied with his gains from killing the Night-Walking Boar Beast, and then he went to check out the Treasure Chest of Opportunities.
This treasure chest was marked as number two. After Lu Chao opened the lid, he found that there were three items inside.
The first item was a blue jade piece about the size of a playing card.
[Secret Jade Slip: After use, select one secret technique, combat skill, or ultimate skill according to the prompts! Note: Skill information and star rating cannot be viewed before selecting a skill. There is a high probability of obtaining a three-star skill, a small probability of obtaining a four-star skill, and an extremely small probability of obtaining a five-star skill.]
The second item was a small jade bottle, about the size of a palm.
【一瓶培元丹：一颗培元丹可增加300~500点修为，瓶装20颗，库存20/20。】
The third item was a blue book.
[True Explanation Diagram - Refinement: A three-star special item that can be equipped on combat skills or ultimate skill books, providing an additional 20% damage increase.]
"These are all good things!"
Lu Chao rubbed his hands together excitedly, thinking to himself that it was indeed a treasure trove. All three items were quite good. The Peiyuan Pill was probably the worst of them all, since cultivation could be obtained by hunting in the wild. The other two items were practically impossible to come by.
However, in the early stages, the value of this bottle of Peiyuan Pill was immeasurable.
"A bottle contains 20 pills, and each pill can increase cultivation points by 300 to 500. How many monsters would I have to kill to gain that many cultivation points? If I took them all, how many levels could I reach?"
Lu Chao tried hard to suppress the urge to take the treasure. He stepped forward and soon found a staircase leading downwards.
After walking through this not-so-long passage, Lu Chaoding saw the scene of the third level of Linlang Cave.
There is also a treasure chest of opportunity on the third floor. In front of the treasure chest lies a giant black tiger. The tiger is probably more than ten feet long. It has two straight and sharp horns on its head, its tail is swaying gently, and its head is resting on its front paws, as if it is dozing.
[Night Owl Giant Tiger: LV15, HP 6000, Attack 600, Resilience 20, Speed 120, Defense 10, possesses skills Double Strike, Triple Strike, Bloodlust Combo, and Bleeding Attack.]
Without saying a word, Lu Chaoding turned and left.
"Damn it, is this a boss?! 6000 HP at level 15, who can beat it? I'd be furious just seeing you, even if I survived jumping off a cliff!"
Lu Chao muttered something.
He certainly doesn't have the ability to examine the treasures on the third level of the Linglang Cave right now.
After returning to the second level of Linlang Cave, Lu Chaoding waited another half hour before collecting the Linlang Secret Treasure from the Treasure Chest of Opportunity. He was then immediately teleported back to Lion Cliff.
Lu Chaoding looked around. There were still many night wolves below Lion Cliff, but the king of night wolves was nowhere to be found. Without its leader, the night wolves were wandering aimlessly. Lu Chaoding's appearance did not attract the hatred of any night wolves, and his situation was relatively safe at the moment.
"Let's choose a skill first!"
Lu Chaoding rubbed his hands together, eagerly taking out the [Secret Jade Slip] he had just acquired. With a slight movement, the jade slip immediately turned into light and disappeared, and a selection window appeared in front of Lu Chaoding, on which text quickly appeared.
A system notification sounded: "Ding, please select a profession!"
Lu Chaoding selected "Sword Immortal" in the selection window.
"Ding, generating a random skill list for you..."
"Ding, the catalog has been generated. You can choose one from the following three secret techniques, three combat techniques, and three ultimate techniques to obtain its skill book."
Lu Chao's eyes lit up, and nine skill icons appeared in the selection window, arranged in a row and a column.
The first row contains secret skill icons, with selectable skills being: [Seven Star Sword Formation], [Transformation into True Form], and [Scattered Sky Flying Sword].
The second row displays combat skill icons. Available combat skills include: [Demon Subduing Spell], [Greatsword Technique], and [Flying Dragon Slash].
The third row contains icons for special skills. The selectable special skills are: [Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon], [Shangqing Breaking Clouds], and [Sword Gate Heavenly Gate].
"What kind of skills are these? They only give me icons, no skill descriptions, and no star rating. Am I supposed to gamble based on the names?"
Lu Chaoding actually felt a little dizzy.
Which one should I choose?
These all seem to be good skills!
Are there any five-star ones?
The name sounds impressive, but it might not just be a one-star character!
The system wouldn't intentionally create a trap, would it?
Lu Chao gritted his teeth in resentment. He knew that hesitating was useless, so he made a decision immediately.
"I already have the Secret Technique 'Sword Shadow Splitting,' and I'm quite adept at using it. I also have the Combat Technique 'Heavy Strike,' although it's a one-star trash skill. But at least I spent cultivation points to upgrade it. Now that the opportunity is rare, I must choose the ultimate skill! 'Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon,' 'Supreme Clarity Cloud Breaker,' 'Sword Gate Heavenly Gate'... I don't know what 'Sword Gate Heavenly Gate' means, and I can't make sense of it. The same goes for 'Supreme Clarity Cloud Breaker,' it might not be an attack skill. As for 'Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon,' if its star rating is too low, wouldn't Fahai lose face? So, I choose..."
Lu Chaoding resolutely reached out and clicked on the icon of [Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon].
"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the five-star [Great Heavenly Dragon] skill book!"
Five stars!
Upon hearing the system notification, Lu Chaoding couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"The system is pretty reliable! I knew it! With such a cool and arrogant name, how could it be a low-star skill!"
Lu Chaoding hurriedly opened his storage space, took out the [Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon] skill book to check it, and then his expression froze, his smile instantly freezing.
