Starmoon Kingdom, White River City:
Teleportation lights flashed in the Teleportation Hall one after another, and Shi Feng and the others emerged from the teleportation lights. After fighting the Frost Monarch, everyone's Stamina and Concentration had been greatly depleted. Even after resting in the Purple Frost Field for some time, they still looked exhausted.
"How strange. We've rested for quite some time, but why do I still feel like my Stamina hasn't recovered?" Shiuse Qiangwei asked curiously when he noticed the changes to his body.
Shiuse Qiangwei wasn't the only one to notice the changes. Fire Dance, Yan Tianxing, and the other Refinement Realm experts had noticed as well.
After reaching the Refinement Realm, players could control their bodies to the smallest degree. The decrease in a player's Stamina would subtly affect their bodies. Hence, even if their Stamina and Concentration were hidden, Refinement Realm experts could determine their Stamina status based on their body's condition.
Normally, players would recover their Stamina as soon as they entered a town or city, yet their Stamina was still recovering at a snail's pace. Why wouldn't they be confused? "It's nothing.
This is just a result of the Power of Frost in an advanced map like the Purple Frost Field invading our bodies. Once the Power of Frost dissipates, we'll recover, "Shifeng explained.
Not only were high-level maps more dangerous, but they also had other complications.
The Purple Frost Field was a special map. It rejected all forms of energy other than the Power of Frost. If players stayed in the Purple Frost Field for too long, not only would they lose their Stamina quickly, but their Stamina recovery would also be affected. This was especially true after fighting a World Boss like the Frost Monarch. The Power of Frost's corrosion would worsen, and players would need at least a dozen hours to recover to their peak condition.
"Doesn't that mean we won't be able to do anything for a while?" Gentle Snow frowned.
She had just obtained the Frost Bone Dragon, a Flying Mount. Originally, she had planned to lead her team to an advanced map and grind the Field Bosses there to earn a lot of equipment. Although her team had reached a high level, the majority of her team's equipment had yet to catch up. Otherwise, she wouldn't have had such a hard time defeating Starlink in the competition.
"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. After all, it's impossible for players to be the same as they were before," Shifeng shrugged.
In God's Domain, it wasn't difficult for players to level up after reaching Level 100. The difficult part was obtaining top-tier weapons and equipment that corresponded to their levels.
A special location like the Purple Frost Field was rich in good equipment. Level 90 World Bosses and several Level 90-plus Mythic Field Bosses resided there. These Bosses could grind Level 90 Dark-Gold Weapons and Equipment.
However, maps like the Purple Frost Field were usually covered in some sort of special energy. Grinding for top-tier weapons and equipment would not be easy. A map like the Purple Frost Field was already a good place to grind. Some maps would even affect a player's physique and Basic Attributes in the long term, rather than just Stamina and Concentration.
Because of this, some teams that relied on their own strength to grind Bosses and monsters in these resource-rich maps, while other major powers tried to monopolize these maps' Bosses. As a result, many independent adventurer teams and small powers were able to survive in God's Domain. As a result, it was increasingly difficult for independent adventurer teams and small powers to dominate God's Domain. Only by relying on more powerful teams could one develop better.
In this regard, the various superpowers held an absolute advantage.
Although Ling Yi had a powerful main force, the other teams in the Guild were several tiers behind. This was also why he wanted to develop his adventurer team and attract more experts.
When Gentle Snow and Shiuse Qiangwei heard Shifeng's words, their frowns deepened.
In other words, the level and Mount advantage they had obtained after much difficulty wouldn't allow them to easily pull ahead of the various superpowers.
"Don't even think about grinding for high-level, top-tier equipment. However, you can lead some people to level up first. Once the Power of Frost disappears, you can organize a team to raid a Dungeon and catch up with our Guild's Dungeon Progress," Shifeng said, chuckling.
How could it be so easy to obtain a large quantity of top-tier equipment? Otherwise, the various small powers and teams in the past wouldn't have been able to survive. The various superpowers wouldn't have had to shift their focus to Lifestyle classes and think of ways to obtain all sorts of resources.
"I'll go right away, then." Helpless, Gentle Snow had no choice but to follow Shifeng's advice.
Following which, Gentle Snow and Shiuse Qiangwei led their team out of the Teleportation Hall, intending to lead a group of players to a high-level map to level up. As for Shifeng, he led the Asura Adventurers to Candlelight and had them purchase some Advanced Mana Armor Kits, Magic Devices, and other internal Consumables. He also had A Melancholy Smile and the others craft some Resistance equipment, which would allow the Asura Adventurers members to level up more quickly.
As for Shifeng, he found a Special Forging Room and used the Abyss Pendant, which he had bound to Dragonheart City's coordinates, to teleport.
In the blink of an eye, Shifeng appeared in an alley in Dragonheart City's outer region.
For some reason, Dragonheart City was even livelier than it had been when Shifeng had first arrived in Dragonheart City. Even though Dragonheart City's outer region was deserted, there were still plenty of players on the streets. Moreover, many of these players weren't human, but neutral players.
"Why are there so many neutral players?" Shifeng was a little surprised to see so many neutral players on the streets.
Every one of these neutral players was very high-leveled. Most of them were Level 76 or above, with quite a few even reaching Level 78. To current mainstream players, Level 78 was already very high. Even the peak experts of large Guilds were only at this level. Meanwhile, Dragonheart City was located in the Sea of Death's inner region. It was unknown how far away it was from the surrounding neutral cities. Hence, very few players from neutral maps could travel to Dragonheart City.
Moreover, aside from a large number of neutral experts, a large number of experts from the various major powers had also gathered in Dragonheart City. Many of these experts were from first-rate Guilds. There were even quite a few experts from second- and third-rate Guilds.
As Shifeng watched one player after another walk down the street, he suddenly noticed a few familiar faces.
These familiar faces were none other than Thoughtful Rain and Blue Bamboo, who loved to play and disappear, as well as Melody and the others from Ninth Heaven. Currently, Shifeng was still disguised as Hei Yan. Thoughtful Rain, Melody, and the others quickly recognized him.
"Big Brother Hei Yan, you're here as well?" Blue Bamboo walked up to Shifeng when she saw him.
"President Hei Yan," Melody, a Half-elf, greeted him.
"Why are you here?" Shifeng asked curiously.
Melody's Fairy Country was quite far from Dragonheart City. Traveling to Dragonheart City would be extremely difficult.
"Huh? You don't know about President Hei Yan?" Melody asked as she looked at Shifeng curiously.
"Know about what?" Shifeng was a little confused.
