A storm was brewing.
A single stone stirred up a thousand ripples.
The drawing of lots for the top ten mission sites was announced, and the entire Shiluo County was in an uproar.
All the large, medium, and small forces began to collect information and analyze their opponents. After all, there were not as many people in the preliminaries as there were in the qualifiers. There were only about 30,000 people in each mission site. It was better to be prepared by understanding the "powerhouses" of each mission site.
Most importantly, after the qualifiers, every warrior in the preliminaries was given a number.
The lower the number, the longer it took the warrior to pass the qualifiers. Relatively speaking, the weaker the warrior was.
For example, Lin Feng was number 333000.
…
"Oh, last place?" Lin Feng was stunned.
He suddenly remembered that he had not completed the qualifiers on his own accord.
Instead, he had been "chased" out of the Battle City treasury at the last moment.
"That's interesting." Lin Feng could not help but smile.
In the qualifiers, he was a one-star general. In the preliminaries, it was even better. He was number 333000. It was such an easy number to remember, but it represented a layer of identity that everyone knew —
Last place.
"Those who look down on you will pay the price," Guan Zhong said calmly.
As a butler and a Star Sector-level warrior, although Guan Zhong was not sure of Lin Feng's exact strength, he could roughly estimate it. Last place? Last place? That was a joke. However, a number was just a number. Other than being at a disadvantage in the preliminaries, there was no difference.
Or perhaps, the warriors with higher numbers were just proud.
However, the Vermilion Bird Challenge only looked at results.
Lin Feng smiled faintly and did not mind.
To him, the Vermilion Bird Challenge was a way to improve his status in the Lin clan, but it was also a training exercise.
As Wan Mochou had said, it was a "trial."
He was looking forward to being able to spar with some martial artists who were stronger than him.
The best way to improve one's strength was to fight.
Especially this kind of life-and-death battle!
"By the way, Ah Zhong, do you know of any way to quickly increase the absorption of constellation power in four months?" Lin Feng asked.
After spending some time together, he realized that Guan Zhong was indeed a talent. The position of butler was a waste of talent for him.
This was a man with a past. He had experienced the vicissitudes of life and was quite experienced.
"Does Young Master want to directly increase the 'Constellation Power', or speed up the absorption of the Constellation Power?" Guan Zhongyan asked.
"Oh …" Lin Feng's eyes lit up. "Tell me about it."
There seemed to be more than one method.
Indeed, he was a little too 'following the prescribed order'.
Thinking about it, the Dou Ling World was so vast and many people had walked this path of martial arts. Naturally, there would be 'shortcuts'.
"The most common way to increase one's Constellation Power is to absorb Star Fruits and Star Pills, or to refine Star Crystals." Guan Zhong said seriously, "Of course, there are also some secret techniques that can transfer the power of constellations, forcefully absorb and refine the power of the stars, etc. These are considered to be unorthodox and extremely rare."
Lin Feng was surprised, "You can refine star crystals?"
Guan Zhong nodded and said, "Of course you can. The Star Crystal itself can be condensed from pure Star Energy. However, it requires the conversion of Star Constellation Energy into a 'secret manual'. Refining Star Crystals has all kinds of auxiliary methods, and the secret manuals used to refine them are also different. "
Lin Feng pondered, "Then what about Star Fruits and Star Pills?"
Guan Zhong did not hesitate and said slowly, "Star Fruits are born from heaven and earth. Different kinds of Star Fruits have different effects, but the Star Energy contained in them is the purest. Star Pills are refined with Star Fruits as the main body. At the same time, the absorption of Inner Star Pills is better than Star Fruits. However, if the same type of Star Pill is taken continuously, the effect will become worse. "
Lin Feng nodded lightly. As one of the four auxiliary professions, Alchemy Master naturally had its own 'value'.
It was the ability of an Alchemy Master to be able to turn a Star Fruit that was worth 10% into a Star Pill that was worth 30%, 50%, or even 10%.
"Ah Zhong, based on your suggestion, what should I choose now?" Lin Feng's eyes flickered.
Regarding Star Fruits and Star Pills, he was after all an outsider. Rather than blindly wasting time, he might as well ask an expert.
Guan Zhong looked at Lin Feng with burning eyes and said slowly, "If Young Master trusts Guan Zhong, you can leave this matter to me."
Lin Feng smiled faintly, "I can't ask for more."
…
Don't doubt those you use, and don't use those you doubt.
Lin Feng naturally trusted Guan Zhong.
This was a man who valued his principles and kept his word.
A month before the results of the preliminary round were announced, a brand-new Luo Clan Chamber of Commerce gold card was sent over. There were more than 2,000 Star Crystals in it. This was what he had earned from selling the Battle Star on his last day in War City. After deducting the 20% handling fee, he still made a sky-high profit.
How many people could see a 'huge' sum of 2,000 Star Crystals and not be tempted?
Guan Zhong was obviously one of them.
"Indeed, I need someone to help me deal with trivial matters."
"Guan Zhong is quite suitable."
Lin Feng smiled faintly.
He was experienced and had seen the world.
He also had the heart of a Star Sector-grade master. Guan Zhong was indeed a good 'steward'.
"However, the treasures I obtained from the crystal vault will have to wait until the end of the preliminary round before they will be given out as rewards."
"I'll have to wait for a long time."
Lin Feng felt quite helpless.
He really wanted to know what kind of treasure could make him so tempted …
What exactly was it?
…
The Inscription Formation was 300 times faster.
The reason why he chose Star Fruits and Star Pills was because he could absorb them directly.
The two did not conflict with orthodox cultivation. However, Star Crystals needed to be refined and could not be cultivated at the same time. Star Pills that could increase the absorption of constellation power in a short period of time were even more useless. This was because their medicinal properties would repel with other Star Pills.
Lin Feng gave Guan Zhong 1,100 Star Crystals. 200 Star Crystals were for him to buy two Extreme Yang Soul Returning Pills just in case.
He did not know when something would happen to him. It was better to be safe.
Now, with the two pure yang jade pendants that Master Yan Qing gave to them, Guan Zhong's two daughters looked much better. Their need for the Extreme Yang Soul Returning Pill was also not as big as before. It was a good thing. As for the remaining 900 Star Crystals, Guan Zhong helped him exchange them for Star Fruits and Star Pills to speed up the absorption of constellation power.
"Gulp …" Lin Feng's eyes lit up when he swallowed the Flaming Li Fruit that was worth 30 Star Crystals.
His abdomen felt as if it was on fire, but his body felt an unusual surge as if it had endless power.
Dense constellation power flowed around his body. The absorption speed was based on his body's endurance.
It was very fast!
It was even faster than cultivating.
"134 days …" Lin Feng smiled and was very satisfied.
"Two months is enough."
…
…
Lin clan.
"You want to choose the Green Field Immortal Track?" Lin Zhen frowned.
"Yes, Clan Leader." Lin Yumo nodded slightly.
"Yumo, you don't have to worry about money." Lin Yan stroked his long beard and said slowly, "Your results are so outstanding this time. The clan must restore your status. Even if you are unlucky in the Vermilion Bird Challenge, your status in the clan will not change. "
"Thank you, Master, Clan Leader." Lin Yumo smiled.
Lin Zhen nodded. "The selection of the mission location …"
"Clan Leader, Master, please forgive Yumo's stubbornness." Lin Yumo's beautiful eyes were bright.
Lin Yumo was soft on the outside but strong on the inside. She was not a person who changed her mind easily.
"This …" Lin Yan and Lin Zhen frowned. The atmosphere was a little tense. From the standpoint of the clan, they naturally hoped that Lin Yumo could go to a safer mission location. However, if Lin Yumo insisted, they could not force her to make a decision.
After all, a forcefully picked melon would not be sweet.
"Can you tell me the reason?" Lin Zhen supported his chin with his right fist. His eyes were burning.
Lin Yumo shook her head.
She did not want to lie.
There was silence. The atmosphere was very awkward.
"Then … let's leave it at that for now." Lin Yan suddenly spoke, breaking the awkward atmosphere. "Anyway, there are still a few days before Yumo's selection. Yumo will choose one mission location out of five. It is still unknown if there is a 'Green Field Immortal'."
Lin Yumo's beautiful face was firm. She bowed slightly. "If there is no 'Green Field Immortal', everything will be decided by Clan Leader and Master. Yumo will take her leave first."
Lin Zhen and Lin Yan looked at each other helplessly.
Lin Yumo meant that if there was a 'Green Field Immortal' among the five mission locations, then she …
Would definitely choose that place.
…
Fate was very strange.
Some people wanted to go, but they could not.
Some people did not want to go, but they had to go.
Lin Yumo's five mission locations were chosen. Lin Zhen and Lin Yan sighed in relief.
Their luck was very good.
However, Lin Yumo's beautiful face couldn't hide the disappointment on her face.
She did not know why, but ever since she saw Lin Feng's name appear in the 'Green Field Immortal', she felt uneasy. She kept feeling that something would happen. However, she did not know if it was because she was too worried or because of a woman's intuition, but she stubbornly wanted to go to the 'Green Field Immortal'.
However, things did not go as she wished.
"I hope I am just overthinking."
"Lin Da Ge will definitely be safe."
Lin Yumo's beautiful eyes flickered with faint starlight.
She did not know when it started, but there was already another person in her heart.
…
Qianluo District, Wu Clan.
Unlike the Lin clan, the Wu Clan was very 'poor'.
Of course, this was compared to other clans of the same level. Compared to other small clans, the Wu Clan was rich and imposing. After all, they were the strongest clan in Qianluo District.
They did not need to prove themselves.
In Qianluo District, the Wu Clan's power was comparable to the Evil Dragon Gang and Qingyun Brothel combined.
Their status was as stable as Mount Tai!
"That's great!" Wu Bufan was wearing a set of shiny black armor and had an imposing appearance. The muscles all over his body bulged like a cheetah. The feathered crown on his head symbolized his Aztec bloodline. "Wu Feng, how many of our clansmen have entered the 'Green Field Immortal'?"
Wu Feng was also an outstanding martial artist of the Wu Clan. He was the third martial artist in Qianluo District to qualify, even surpassing Lin Yumo.
"Young Master, including you and me, there are a total of eighty people," Wu Feng raised the corner of his mouth and said happily.
"Good, good omen!" Wu Bufan's eyes shone brightly as he laughed heartily, "This will be the battle that will make me, Wu Bufan, famous. I will definitely make the Wu Clan famous!"
Wu Feng smiled and said, "There is another good news. Young Master, Lin Feng of the Lin clan is also on the list of the 'Green Field Immortal'. His number is 333000."
"Number 333000?" Wu Bufan was stunned for a moment before he suddenly laughed loudly.
"Very good, this is indeed good news!" Wu Bufan's eyes revealed a trace of killing intent, "This brat who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth, I have long wanted to get rid of him. Now, I can get rid of him once and for all!"
"Last place? What a trash! "
Wu Bufan's arrogant laughter resounded in the air.
