Neutral Map, Crimson Rain Forest:
A 1,000-man team of Tier 3 players fought tens of thousands of Level 120-plus Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts in a forest covered in crimson rain.
The weakest of these Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts was a Level 121 Chieftain, while the strongest was a Level 126 Grand Lord. The battle between the two sides was like a war between two armies.
On the players' side, shield-wielding Shield Warriors and Guardian Knights stood at the forefront. On the Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts' side, the Ironclad Beasts, which were known for their Defense, acted as spears as they charged at the Shield Warriors and Guardian Knights. After one wave of Ironclad Beasts charged at the Shield Warriors and Guardian Knights, another wave of Ironclad Beasts would follow suit.
Meanwhile, the Titanic Savage Beasts in the distance lifted one crimson tree after another and hurled them at the players, dyeing the sky crimson.
Even Tier 3 players, who were accustomed to combat, would shudder at this frightening sight. None of them dared to fight these monsters head-on.
However, this 1,000-man team didn't pay much attention to the Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts' ferocious attacks.
"They've attracted enough Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts! Magical class parties, attack!"
The valiant, long-haired woman leading the team commanded as she watched more and more Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts gather around her.
Immediately, the 100-plus magical class players standing in the center of the team began to chant complex incantations. Every incantation they chanted caused the surrounding Mana to become more concentrated, violent, and powerful.
In less than four seconds, the ground began to tremble violently. Massive cracks spread across a 500-yard radius and devoured the Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts. The Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts that had been attacking the Swordsman with ferocious attacks instantly crumbled.
"Swordsmen and Berserkers, open a path! Rangers and Assassins, prioritize the Savage Beast Leaders commanding the battle!"
The long-haired woman looked at the Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts that had already been torn apart, and immediately ordered the team to split up, prioritizing killing the Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts that were commanding the battle.
Like a demon of the night, the long-haired woman appeared behind an eight-meter-tall Level 126 Grand Lord in the blink of an eye.
The next moment, the woman brandished her dagger. As if space itself had distorted, the dagger transformed into over a dozen streaks of light that pierced the Great Lord's heart.
Damages of over -500,000 appeared above the Great Lord's head, one after another. In the blink of an eye, the Bloodthirsty Great Lord lost nearly 8,000,000 HP.
Then, as if he had teleported, he transformed into darkness and enveloped the Bloodthirsty Lord's surroundings. By the time he reappeared in front of the Bloodthirsty Lord …
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Blood gushed out of the Great Lord's four limbs. Not only was its mobility greatly reduced, but its HP also decreased at a rate of 600,000 to 700,000 per second. Even the three Level 124 Great Lord ranked Bloodthirsty Guards were bleeding profusely.
His movements paused for a moment.
It was as if he had been fixed in place …
In less than 15 minutes, the Bloodthirsty Great Lord and its three Bloodthirsty Guards had fallen to the ground.
He was deader than dead.
Furthermore, the tens of thousands of Bloodthirsty Savage Beasts on the battlefield had also been wiped out?
The dropped items were scattered all over the ground, yet none of the players present picked them up.
Instead, they advanced into the depths of the Scarlet Rain Forest in an orderly fashion, leaving only a few Assassin squads to clean up the battlefield.
A Level 119 female Knight suddenly walked up to the long-haired woman commanding the team?
Whispering, she said, "Vice Guild Leader Cold Shadow?
Ling Yi just sent word that he's willing to sell the information on the Tier 4 Promotion Quest. "
"Huh? He's actually willing to sell it?" Cold Shadow was slightly surprised to hear White Feather's words.
In her opinion?
The information on the Tier 4 Promotion Quest was definitely Shifeng.
In God's Domain, Shi Feng was the trump card that held the initiative. Hence, there was no way he would sell any information to the public.
"He is indeed willing to sell it. Only, his price is extremely high," White Feather said, her expression ugly. She deliberately used the word "extremely high."
"Extremely high?" Chuckling, Cold Shadow asked, "How much, then?"
"Five thousand units of Seven Luminaries Crystal," White Feather said in a somewhat gloomy tone. "Shifeng?
He clearly doesn't want to sell the information on the Tier 4 Promotion Quest! He's just toying with us! "
"Five thousand units of Seven Luminaries Crystal?
He really dares to ask for such a high price, "Cold Shadow said, chuckling.
"I'm guessing that the various superpowers are furious with Ling Yi right now.
They might even attack Ling Yi. "
"Are you sure?
Five thousand units of Seven Luminaries Crystal isn't something those superpowers can afford.
If those superpowers want it, they'll have no choice but to join forces and start a war, "White Feather said, nodding.
Five thousand units of Seven Luminaries Crystal was practically treating the various superpowers as fools. It would be a miracle if those superpowers were willing to pay such a price.
"Alright, tell Ling Yi about it," Cold Shadow said, nodding. Smiling faintly, she said, "I'll buy it!"
"You'll buy it?" White Feather's eyes widened in shock as she stared at Cold Shadow. She then warned, "Vice Guild Leader, that's 5,000 units of Seven Luminaries Crystal we're talking about!"
While Mythology could indeed afford 5,000 units of Seven Luminaries Crystal, it would be a huge blow to the Guild's finances. Not to mention, Seven Luminaries Crystal had always been a resource that the Guild's higher-ups required.
"That's right! I'll buy it!" Cold Shadow nodded. She then turned to White Feather and asked, "Do you think Ling Yi is a fool?"
After giving the matter some thought, White Feather said, "I don't think so. However, he's simply too arrogant!"
That's right. Ling Yi's arrogance had seeped into his bones. He didn't care about the various superpowers at all. He didn't even know how to spell the word 'death'.
"That's enough, then. Since they aren't fools, they should know the consequences of their actions," Cold Shadow said, a hint of resentment in her voice. "Although I hate Ling Yi, the fact that Ling Yi has survived until now shows that he isn't as simple as you and I think. Even Lord Odin gave up on killing that Shifeng. It's obvious how extraordinary he is."
"But that's 5,000 units of Seven Luminaries Crystal!" White Feather said. "The Guild definitely won't agree to that."
"I've already said that I'm the one buying it, not the Guild," Cold Shadow said, shaking her head. "So, we don't need to worry about the Guild's affairs."
"Vice Guild Leader, if you buy it, you'll have to give Ling Yi all the Seven Luminaries Crystals you've saved up," White Feather said. White Feather was even more shocked. She hurriedly said, "If that's the case, then your promotion to the First Vice President will have to be delayed indefinitely."
Seven Luminaries Crystals had always been important to the Guild. Hence, Cold Shadow had been secretly purchasing Seven Luminaries Crystals during the early stages of the Guild's development. Her goal was to contribute them to the Guild's higher-ups during crucial moments.
However, if she lost these Seven Luminaries Crystals, things would become much more difficult in the future.
"While Seven Luminaries Crystals are indeed important, getting promoted to Tier 4 is more important," Cold Shadow said as she looked at the boundless sea of stars in the distance. Looking at the endless Land of Crimson Rain in the distance, Cold Shadow said seriously, "Currently, there are simply too few places we can explore with our Tier 3 classes. Only after reaching Tier 4 will we be able to truly set foot in those places. Hence, our first priority right now is to reach Tier 4. Once we reach Tier 4, we won't have to worry about earning back all the Seven Luminaries Crystals we've lost!"
Cold Shadow was extremely displeased with the Shifeng's exorbitant demands. She wanted nothing more than to kill the Shifeng right now and make the Shifeng die several hundred times over. However, in the entire God's Domain, only the Shifeng knew how to complete their Tier 4 Promotion Quest as quickly as possible.
With this information, Cold Shadow would have an absolute advantage.
After all, she had already reached Level 120. With the information she received from Ling Yi, she could definitely reach Tier 4 before everyone else in the Guild. She could also set foot in those forbidden lands first and grow stronger. At that time, she would become the number one expert of the Guild's younger generation.
"I understand. I'll make the necessary preparations, then," White Feather said. Seeing that Cold Shadow had already made up her mind, she no longer tried to dissuade her.
Currently, Level 120 experts had already started appearing among the various superpowers' experts. If Cold Shadow could reach Tier 4 before these experts, her authority in the Guild would increase significantly.
Of course, at the same time, Cold Shadow was making a huge gamble.
She was betting that Ling Yi wouldn't lose to the various superpowers and that Ling Yi would survive this battle. That way, she would gain an absolute advantage.
However, White Feather wasn't aware of Cold Shadow's madness.
In Cold Shadow's opinion, it didn't matter if Ling Yi survived or not. So long as she could obtain this slight advantage, it would be enough.
Orc Empire, Silverwing City:
"Despicable! Ling Yi is clearly toying with us! "
"That's right! We were kind enough to purchase the Tier 4 Promotion Quest information from him, yet he's mocking us for not being able to afford 5,000 units of Seven Luminaries Crystals!"
"Why don't we work together? As long as we work together to seal off Ling Yi, I refuse to believe that Ling Yi won't submit."
"That's right! As long as we work together, Ling Yi won't have a chance of surviving."
…
For a time, many of the various superpowers in Silverwing City reached a private agreement to pressure Ling Yi and target all of Ling Yi's members. They wanted to force Ling Yi to submit and force Ling Yi to hand over the Tier 4 Promotion Quest information obediently.
Meanwhile, in Ling Yi's Residence, the Shifeng received a call from Yuan Tiexin.
"President Hei Yan, you've gone too far this time. Even if you want to sell the Tier 4 Promotion Quest information, why don't you just ask for 1,000 units of Seven Luminaries Crystals? At that time, many of the various superpowers will likely be willing to pay. You'll also make a fortune. Why go through the trouble of making Ling Yi an enemy?" Yuan Tiexin was utterly speechless.
Five thousand units of Seven Luminaries Crystals would cost the various superpowers their lives. However, the various superpowers were still willing to pay 1,000 units of Seven Luminaries Crystals. If over 30 superpowers were willing to pay the price, that would be a massive sum of Seven Luminaries Crystals.
At that time, the various superpowers would have earned enough Seven Luminaries Crystals, and they wouldn't bother Ling Yi for no reason.
It would be the best of both worlds, yet the Shifeng was so ruthless.
"Make enemies?" The Shifeng suddenly laughed. "I have no intention of making enemies with them. Moreover, Elder Yuan, you're wrong about some things. They were clearly the ones who forced Ling Yi to sell the Tier 4 Promotion Quest information. We weren't the ones who wanted to sell it. I gave them a price, yet they couldn't afford it. How is this my fault?"
"You're right …" Yuan Tiexin naturally understood this. However, the situation was dire, and he had no other choice. "However, those superpowers won't think the same way. They'll definitely work together to secretly target all of Ling Yi's members. When that time comes, rivers of blood will flow among Ling Yi's members."
Currently, the various superpowers might not be able to capture Ling Yi's cities, but it would be a piece of cake for them to arrange for players to kill Ling Yi's members.
Ling Yi's members couldn't possibly not grind, right?
They couldn't possibly have peak experts protecting them at all times, either, right?
It would only be a matter of time before Ling Yi's members withdrew from the Guild.
As for Ling Yi's plan to retaliate?
This wasn't as simple as declaring war on a single power. These superpowers would all take action in secret. How could Ling Yi tell which superpower was behind this?
Moreover, even if these superpowers admitted it, could the Shifeng defeat so many superpowers by himself?
He'd most likely die just by running across maps!
That's right. This was the situation!
The pressure of a superpower wasn't something an individual could resist.
Very calmly, the Shifeng said, "Rivers of blood, then!"
