Cold Wind City's Library:
When Shifeng set foot inside the library, he felt as if he had stepped into a different world.
There were no books in this library at all. The ceiling was like a starry sky at night. The walls were surrounded by shrubs, forming a winding staircase. The entire hall was filled with streams and small bridges. From time to time, crystal clear water balls would rise from the streams and then dissipate. It was a magnificent sight.
These streams all originated from a single source — the gigantic ball of water hovering in the center of the hall.
Not even Starmoon Kingdom's Library could compare to this magnificent sight.
What an amazing library. Everything is controlled by the ball of water. The Mana density here is also double that of the outside world. If I study and deduce Spells here, I'll be two or three times more effective than in the outside world. Shifeng could not help his surprise when he sensed the Mana in the library.
However, Shifeng was surprised to find that there weren't many magical class players in the library. At a glance, there were only around 300 magical class players. For a library, this was a little too few.
What Shifeng didn't know was that to enter Cold Wind City's library, one needed to be a Baron of Cold Wind City. Unlike other libraries, players only needed to be a noble to enter, even if they didn't have a noble title.
If Shifeng hadn't activated his Demon Hunter title, the Level 180 NPC guards would've chased him out of the library before he'd even set foot inside.
Without giving the matter much thought, Shifeng approached the gigantic ball of water in the center of the hall and began searching for information on Eternal Ice Crystals.
Compared to flipping through the various books on the bookshelves, searching through the ball of Mana was much more convenient.
There sure is a lot of information here. Shifeng was astonished when he saw over a hundred lines of information on Eternal Ice Crystals.
Normally, a dozen or so lines of information would be impressive. That was more than enough for players to find what they were looking for. However, there were over a hundred lines of information on Eternal Ice Crystals.
Following which, Shifeng began to browse through the information.
"How is this possible?!" Shifeng was shocked when he saw the information displayed on the water ball.
The Eternal Ice Crystal was actually the Mana Crystal he had been searching for all this time. Only, due to the Ice Crystal World's influence, the Eternal Ice Crystal contained the power of frost. As for Eternal Ice Crystals, they could be found in the Ice Crystal World's various forbidden lands. All Great Lord ranked Bosses had a chance of dropping them.
However, the Eternal Ice Crystal that dropped was not a complete Eternal Ice Crystal, but Ice Crystal Fragments. The drop-rate was extremely low. Ten Ice Crystal Fragments were required to synthesize a complete Eternal Ice Crystal. Moreover, the success rate was only 50%.
"No wonder the time limit is one month. As expected, the difficulty is not ordinary." Shifeng frowned slightly. Although the Snow Rift was a forbidden land, there were not many Field Bosses in the area. In addition, the drop-rate was extremely low. It would take a very long time just to obtain one, not to mention ten. "It seems we need to hurry."
The Eternal Ice Crystal was a Mana Crystal. Meanwhile, the Mana Crystal was a necessary material for the Abyssal Blade's evolution.
The Tier 1 Abyssal Blade was already very powerful. Its compatibility with the Abyssal Blade was even higher than that of an Epic Weapon. However, in terms of Attributes, it was still slightly weaker than a top-tier Epic Weapon.
He had considered upgrading the Abyssal Blade, but he had not been able to find any Mana Crystals. Hence, he had kept the Abyssal Blade.
If he could upgrade the Abyssal Blade once more, he would have a greater chance of defeating the Ancient Shrine's Guardian Boss.
Thinking up to this point, Shifeng felt that he had made the right decision in establishing an adventurer team in Cold Wind City. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to obtain so many Eternal Ice Crystals by himself in such a short time.
Following which, Shifeng hurriedly left the library and made his way to the Asura Adventurers' Residence.
Elsewhere, when the Asura Adventurers's new benefits were announced, the surrounding players, who had been waiting to see a joke, were in an uproar.
"This is a joke, right?! The adventurer team can actually exchange Contribution Points for combat techniques?! "
"The Asura Adventurers are actually willing to teach combat techniques?! Even the two large Guilds don't receive such treatment! "
…
Many of Cold Wind City's expert players frequented the Divine Colosseum for PvP. However, the number of players who had mastered combat techniques could be counted on one hand. Every one of these players treated combat techniques as their family heirlooms and would not teach them to anyone else.
They knew full well how powerful combat techniques were. The combat standards of players who had mastered combat techniques were on completely different levels compared to those who had not.
Moreover, combat techniques were different from Skills. The process of learning a combat technique would greatly improve a player's combat standards. Because of this, players who had mastered combat techniques were unwilling to teach others. Even if many players were willing to agree to harsh conditions and pay a hefty price, they would not be able to obtain a combat technique.
Yet, now, the Asura Adventurers were willing to teach combat techniques. For a moment, everyone was stunned.
As for whether or not the Asura Adventurers would lie to them, they were not worried. After all, Shifeng was Cold Wind City's number one expert. Since he was so powerful, he would definitely have plenty of combat techniques. Hence, it would not be strange for him to be willing to share one or two combat techniques. Moreover, the stronger an expert, the more they valued their promises. This was only an adventurer team's recruitment. As long as Shifeng lowered the bar slightly, he could easily form an adventurer team with several thousand members.
There was no need to lie to them.
After a short moment, the previously deserted registration area suddenly became overcrowded. Many players anxiously rushed to the registration area.
Many of the players present, who had yet to reach the Trial Tower's fourth floor, frantically begged Solitary Nine to give them a chance to become reserve members of the adventurer team.
Solitary Nine and the others, who usually had nothing better to do, suddenly became busy. The liveliness of the registration area far exceeded their expectations. Fifth-floor experts rushed to the registration area like madmen. Among them, many were core members of well-known adventurer teams. There were also experts from the two large Guilds.
In less than 30 minutes, over a hundred people had become Asura Adventurers' official members, while over 500 had become reserve members.
Solitary Nine rejected any players who didn't have the combat power to reach the Trial Tower's fourth floor, telling them to wait until they reached the fourth floor before coming back to challenge him.
As for the news of Asura Adventurers teaching combat techniques, it quickly spread throughout Cold Wind City. Every player in Cold Wind City began to discuss the matter, and every one of them wanted to join the Asura Adventurers.
However, the two large Guilds were having headaches over this matter. Originally, they had planned to ridicule the Asura Adventurers for their high requirements. Now, however, they only felt helpless. With so many experts gathered together and even teaching combat techniques, it wouldn't be long before the Asura Adventurers became Cold Wind City's overlord …
"Guild Leader, I've already notified Hekati, but the number of Asura Adventurers' official members has already exceeded 500. At this rate, the Asura Adventurers will become Cold Wind City's absolute rulers before Hekati can open the portal," Feather Wind reported in shock as he looked at the statistics in his hands.
He simply couldn't understand how the Shifeng had appeared.
In Feather Wind's opinion, an expert's ultimate goal was to claim the head of a general amidst an army of tens of thousands of soldiers.
Yet, with just a few words, Shi Feng had claimed that he wanted to establish an adventurer team. With that, he had claimed Cold Wind City, which Matchless Family had spent so much effort to compete for, just like that …
"This won't do. You need to go now … No … We need to find Wave Heart right now. Even if we have to pay a high price, we need to recruit Wave Heart to help us deal with the Asura Adventurers," Thundering Sky said as he stood up hurriedly.
He didn't expect the Wave Heart adventurer team to defeat the Asura Adventurers by working with Matchless Family. He only wanted the adventurer team to last until Hekati opened the portal.
"Guild Leader, I've just received news that Wave Heart's Lifeless Thorn has led his men to the Asura Adventurers. By the looks of it, Lifeless Thorn is planning to take action," Feather Wind said, sneering as he read the latest report from his subordinate.
Lifeless Thorn was a battle maniac. Since his debut in Cold Wind City, none of the experts he had challenged had lasted more than five moves against him. He was publicly acknowledged as Cold Wind City's number one expert. Even Matchless Family and Matchless Family were helpless against him.
