White River City, Candlelight:
The Candlelight Trading Firm was over twenty stories tall. Compared to the surrounding player and NPC Shops, the Candlelight Trading Firm looked like a giant. Countless players who had visited White River City were astonished by the building. It was especially true for players who focused on developing their subclasses. At this moment, they all looked at the Candlelight Trading Firm with longing in their eyes.
Candlelight was a 4-star Shop and had access to the Basic Meditation Room, which many powers couldn't compare to. It also had access to Stone Forest City, which countless players envied.
Not long ago, Ling Yi had announced that members of the Ling Yi Society could use their GCPs to purchase private houses in Stone Forest City.
This was especially true now that Candlelight was preparing to auction off Stone Forest City's private houses.
The various major powers' and independent players were envious of Stone Forest City.
Even a fool could tell that a Guild City like Stone Forest City would have a limitless future. Moreover, Stone Forest City had garrisoned in a Level 100 neutral map. Although Level 100 neutral maps were dangerous, one had to admit that aside from being a perfect leveling ground, the scenery was also superior to that of any kingdom or empire.
If one could own a private house in Stone Forest City, they could brag about it for the rest of their lives.
However, obtaining a permanent private house was easier said than done.
Ling Yi didn't sell its private houses to outsiders. Instead, it only rented them. Once the rental period expired, players would have to participate in the auction again. Whether or not they could secure a private house was another matter. How could a private house compare to a permanent house?
Yet, now, Ling Yi's members could do so. Why wouldn't everyone envy them?
Shifeng walked toward Candlelight. Although he wore a Black Cloak, the Ling Yi core member emblem he wore attracted the envy of many players on the street.
"He's actually a core member of Ling Yi? It would be great if I could get to know him." A Level 96 female Elementalist's eyes glowed as she looked at Shifeng.
Now that Zero Wing was like the sun at high noon in the several neighboring kingdoms, the various major powers had to give the Guild face. Meanwhile, countless adventurer teams were eager to befriend Zero Wing's core members. With the Guild's core members, they'd have a much easier time in the Cold Spring Forest.
"He's just a core member of Ling Yi. What's so amazing about him?" A Level 97 Shield Warrior said enviously. "If I didn't like being unrestrained, I could join Ling Yi and become a core member, too."
"I'm afraid that won't be easy. I've heard that there are too many people joining Ling Yi Society right now. To become an elite member, you'll have to reach the Trial Tower's fifth floor's middle stage, at the very least. the middle stage," the Level 96 female Elementalist, shaking her head as she looked at the Shield Warrior's eyes eyes eyes eyes... She shook.
When the Level 97 Shield Warrior heard Shi Feng's words, he was momentarily at a loss for words.
In the Black Dragon Empire's well-known adventurer teams, only a handful of experts experts had reached the Trial Tower's sixth floor's middle stage. Meanwhile, the Shield Warrior himself had only reached the late stage of the fifth floor. There was a massive gap between them.
"The requirements for becoming a core member are already so high?" Shifeng was surprised when he overheard the conversation between the two Shield Warriors.
To ensure that the Guild's core members had sufficient resources, Ling Yi had set a limit on the number of core members. After all, the Guild had limited resources, especially rare resources, and the Guild couldn't supply them indefinitely. Of course, if a core member could meet the minimum requirements, they could become a core member.
He recalled that a few days ago, Ling Yi's core member requirements had only been the early stage of the Trial Tower's sixth floor, while the minimum requirement had been the late stage of the Trial Tower's sixth floor.
Now, however, one of Ling Yi's core members had actually reached the Trial Tower's sixth floor's middle stage. One could just imagine how many experts had joined Ling Yi. He had to admit that the benefits of Stone Forest City were simply amazing.
Moreover, as time passed, the requirements for becoming a core member would continue to increase, and the Guild's number of experts would continue to increase.
However, while Shifeng was overjoyed, he also felt a lot of pressure.
With more experts, the Guild's demand for resources would increase. Although Ling Yi's progress had been solid, the number of experts attracted to Stone Forest City had skyrocketed. If the Guild couldn't secure these experts' development with sufficient resources, it would only be a matter of time before they were lost to other powers' Guild Towns and Cities in Level 100 neutral maps.
Whether or not Ling Yi could grow into a Guild that rivaled the various superpowers would depend on whether Ling Yi could secure a large number of resources and Coins.
Thinking up to this point, Shifeng immediately entered the Candlelight Room.
A Melancholy Smile had already gathered the Secret-Silver Guards he had gone to great lengths to collect in his Meditation Room. Seeing Shifeng enter the room, A Melancholy Smile passed the list of Secret-Silver Guards to Shifeng.
"Guild Leader, these are 16 Secret-Silver Guards with high Growth Potential that I've found from the various kingdoms and empires. Although there are still a few Secret-Silver Guards, their Growth Potential isn't very high," A Melancholy Smile said awkwardly as he gestured to the row of Secret-Silver Guards.
Shifeng had provided her with plenty of clues, and she had even used the Secret Chamber of Commerce's channels. However, after so many days, she had only found 16 Secret-Silver Guards.
"Sixteen?" Shifeng inwardly rejoiced when he heard A Melancholy Smile's introduction.
Finding Secret-Silver Guards was easier said than done. After all, Secret-Silver Guards had a high chance of reaching Tier 4.
Tier 4 players!
Even to first-rate Guilds, Tier 5 and Tier 6 experts were a force to be reckoned with. After all, Tier 5 and Tier 6 apex experts were incredibly rare. In an era where Tier 3 players could become the mainstays of a Guild, Tier 4 experts were already first-rate Guilds' VIPs. Tier 4 experts were existences that even second- and third-rate Guilds feared.
The fact that Shi Feng had managed to find 16 Secret-Silver Guards with high Potential was already an amazing feat.
Following which, Shifeng instructed A Melancholy Smile to continue collecting materials for the Secret-Silver Guards and Flying Ships. As for Shifeng, he led the 16 Secret-Silver Guards to Candlelight's second-floor underground warehouse, which was a private warehouse only the Shop's managers had access to.
As an Epic item, the Ancient God's Literature Fragment could only strengthen one Secret-Silver Guard per day. Currently, he only had ten days to strengthen ten Secret-Silver Guards at most. He simply didn't have enough time.
Hence, he decided to use the Holy Grail to upgrade the Ancient God's Literature Fragment.
Previously, he hadn't dared to upgrade the Ancient God's Literature Fragment because it was bound to one's soul. It couldn't be traded or stored in the warehouse, and it had a certain chance of dropping upon death. If he died and lost the upgraded Literature Fragment, he'd rather die.
However, now that he had been promoted to Tier 3, he had enough power to protect himself. The chances of him dying were extremely low.
Moreover, the Ancient God's Literature Fragment's effects were frightening. If he could upgrade it further, it would be unimaginable for Ling Yi.
Inside the warehouse, Shifeng retrieved the Holy Grail and used it to scan the Ancient God's Literature Fragment's fifth page.
A short moment later, the Holy Grail displayed the amount of Life Force required to upgrade the Literature Fragment. It required a permanent sacrifice of 100,000 HP …
"So much?!" Shifeng was shocked when he saw this number.
To a Tier 2 player, this amount of HP was practically fatal. Moreover, there was only a chance of success. If he failed, he'd lose all of his HP. This was also why he didn't use the Holy Grail casually.
However, Shifeng didn't hesitate for too long. Compared to the Ancient God's Literature Fragment's improvement, losing 100,000 HP wasn't unacceptable. After all, the Ancient God's Literature Fragment wasn't an ordinary Epic item. He had nearly 1,000,000 HP, and as a Swordsman, he didn't particularly care about how little HP he had. Most importantly, there were plenty of ways to permanently increase one's HP in God's Domain.
"Evolve!"
Shifeng gritted his teeth and chose to sacrifice 100,000 HP. Immediately, the Holy Grail absorbed a large amount of HP from Shifeng. A purple-blue mist then enveloped the Ancient God's Literature Fragment.
