Shifeng hesitated when he saw the system notification.
Whether it was the Crimson-eyed Sword Saint's Legacy Guidance or the Calamity Blade's buff, both were extremely rare opportunities.
Not only could the Legacy Guidance help players unlock their Mana Bodies' full potential, but it might even help them break through the 100% threshold of their Mana Bodies. The Legacy Guidance would depend on the individual's comprehension of the Legacy Guidance. This was especially true for a Titled Sword Saint like the Crimson-eyed Sword Saint. Even before the emergence of Tier 6 God-ranked players, the Crimson-eyed Sword Saint had already stood at the apex of God's Domain.
Hence, a Legacy Guidance like this was even more valuable.
As for the Calamity Blade's buff, it was similarly valuable.
The buff would permanently consume a portion of the user's Mana to enchant the weapon, granting the weapon a portion of the wielder's abilities. On the surface, the weapon wouldn't experience any changes to its Attributes, but the weapon's power and Skills and Spells would increase significantly. Moreover, the buff would grant the wielder a hidden Mana effect.
A Titled Sword Saint's buff was just as effective as upgrading an Epic Weapon to Fragmented Legendary rank.
To God's Domain's various superpowers, a weapon that rivaled a Fragmented Legendary Weapon was a godly relic that could be used for the rest of their lives. After all, it was possible to increase the level cap of Level 100-plus Epic Weapons and Equipment through special methods. Only, the cost of doing so was much higher than an Epic Weapon's.
However, for the sake of a weapon that could rival a Fragmented Legendary Weapon, such a price was negligible.
While Shifeng hesitated, the sound of another system notification reached his ears.
System: You have one minute to make your decision. If you do not make your decision within the time limit, you will have forfeited.
With little time left, Shifeng gritted his teeth and approached the Crimson-eyed Sword Saint.
"Lord Sword Saint, I hope to receive your Legacy Guidance," Shifeng said earnestly.
"Are you sure? You have already unlocked your Mana Body's full potential. I can tell that you've also received other powerhouses' Legacy Guidance. Even if you receive mine, it won't be of much help to you. On the other hand, the Calamity Blade will increase your strength, "the Crimson-eyed Sword Saint confirmed calmly as he looked at Shifeng.
"Yes, sir, I'm very sure." Shifeng nodded.
Shi Feng had indeed unlocked his Mana Body's full potential. However, for the sake of his future path, simply unlocking 100% of his Mana Body's potential wasn't enough. Only by breaking through 100% of his Mana Body's shackles would he be able to go further in the future. Meanwhile, every powerhouse walked a different path. Obtaining more Legacies and guidance would also help him break through 100% of his Mana Body's shackles.
Most importantly, such an opportunity was hard to come by. Whether he would be able to encounter it again in the future depended entirely on his luck. If he missed it, he would really miss it.
He had only reached 100% after receiving the Heavenly Blue Saint's Legacy guidance and the help of a God's Heart. Breaking through to 100% Mana Body would be far more difficult than reaching 100% Mana Body. He didn't know how long it would take him to reach 100% Mana Body on his own. He might not even be able to break through the shackles of 100% Mana Body his entire life. After all, his Mana Body was at the Epic rank.
Without enough references, the chances were slim. Even if he had the heart of a god, it would still be very difficult.
Hence, he had no other choice.
As for the Mana buff for his weapon, he might be able to obtain a weapon that rivaled a Fragmented Legendary Weapon immediately, greatly increasing his combat power. However, the Calamity Blade was a fragment of Solomon's Sword. He would have to fuse all five fragments into one in the future. If he did that, he would lose the Mana buff. He would only be wasting one buff.
Moreover, he currently had the Abyssal Blade. He wouldn't fall behind when it came to weapons.
Most importantly, at the end of the day, Tier 3 was only a transition for true experts. Reaching Tier 4 was far better than obtaining a Fragmented Legendary item. After all, the gap between tiers would only grow larger as one reached higher levels. At that time, one or two Fragmented Legendary items wouldn't be enough to make up for the gap.
Moreover, Shi Feng had already reached Level 117. He was only three levels away from reaching Level 120.
Level 120!
This was the second major turning point for players after reaching Level 100.
Once players reached Level 120, they could challenge their Tier 4 Promotion Quest!
Only, he had never heard of anyone challenging their Tier 4 Promotion Quest at Level 120 in the past. Even the various superpowers' peak experts had only challenged their Tier 4 Promotion Quests at Level 125. Some had even reached Level 130. After all, many peak experts still hadn't fully unlocked their Mana Bodies even after reaching Level 120, not to mention other aspects of their Mana Bodies.
Meanwhile, the Tier 4 Promotion Quest was far more difficult than the Tier 3 Promotion Quest. This difficulty wasn't in the ordinary sense.
If one had to describe it, Tier 3 Promotion Quest was the equivalent of a Basic Small Dungeon, while Tier 4 Promotion Quest was the equivalent of a 100-man Hell Mode Team Dungeon. The difference between the two was qualitative.
Many mainstream experts could challenge their Tier 3 Promotion Quests. If they couldn't reach Level 100, they could challenge their Tier 3 Promotion Quest at Level 120 or 130. However, if they couldn't reach Tier 4, they couldn't. Even if they were Level 200, they still couldn't reach Tier 4.
Because of this, even the various superpowers had very few Tier 4 experts. Every one of them was a Guild's upper echelon, a true powerhouse that stood at the upper echelons of God's Domain.
Moreover, the Tier 4 Promotion Quest took a very long time. According to the statistics of his previous life, Tier 4 Promotion Quests could take as little as a month or as long as two months. Meanwhile, Shi Feng still had to complete the Divine Dragon's trial. Time was of the essence. If he couldn't reach Tier 4, his chances of clearing the trial would be infinitely close to zero.
Only after reaching Tier 4 would he have a 10% to 20% chance of completing the trial. After all, becoming the Divine Dragon's companion would give him far too many benefits. It would also guarantee his foothold on the western continent. Hence, he couldn't afford to be careless.
"It seems you already know what kind of path you should take." At this moment, the Crimson-eyed Sword Saint looked at the Shifeng in a different light. Instead of looking at him as a weakling, the Crimson-eyed Sword Saint now viewed him as an equal. He then took out a crystal ball and handed it to the Shifeng. "This is my Legacy Experience. I hope it will be of some help to you."
After the Crimson-eyed Sword Saint handed the Legacy Crystal to the Shifeng, he transformed into a streak of light and disappeared from Poison City. The two Tier 4 NPCs that accompanied him also vanished. It was as if they had never appeared in Poison City in the first place. Only the Calamity Blade remained in the fountain.
Shifeng didn't give the Calamity Blade much thought as he stored it away. He had no intention of using it.
Unlike ordinary weapons, the Calamity Blade would convert the user's Mana into dense death energy. Aside from dealing damage to the wielder, the death energy would also affect nearby creatures. Hence, the Calamity Blade wasn't suitable for ordinary players. It was only suitable for solo Dark Players. This was also why Shi Feng had chosen not to buff the Calamity Blade.
"Guild Leader, we've finished sorting through the Boss' loot." Shiuse Qiangwei could not help his excitement when he saw Shifeng complete his quest. "The loot this time is quite bountiful. Aside from a Fragmented Legendary ranked mage robe, Undead's Will, there are also two Epic Weapons: a staff and a dagger. There is also a Tier 3 Netherworld Set Equipment for magical classes, as well as various materials and recipes. As per your request, the Epic Weapon has already been auctioned internally. Blue Frost won the staff, and Flying Shadow won the dagger. May I know what we should do with the Undead's Will and the Tier 3 Set Equipment?"
"Let's give Blue Frost the Undead's Will for now. After all, he'll need to return to the Dark Den to oversee the situation. Without a monstrous expert to defend the Dark Den, he'll have a hard time contending with the various superpowers," Shifeng said after giving the matter some thought.
"President Hei Yan, I've just received a report stating that Demon's Heart's alliance has begun raiding the Ancient God's Tower's third Boss. By the looks of it, they have a high chance of securing it …" Dark Rhapsody's Blue Rainbow reported worriedly as she approached Shi Feng.
The Ancient God's Tower's first floor had a total of four Bosses. If Demon's Heart's alliance secured the third Boss, Demon's Heart would most likely gain control of the Ancient God's Tower's teleportation array.
"They're really fast at conquering." Shifeng was slightly surprised. The Ancient God's Tower's interior was the equivalent of a small field map. Searching for Bosses would be a difficult task. Chuckling, he said, "However, now that we're done here, it's time for us to return."
