Chapter 516: 516

Chapter 516 - Successful Evolution

In God’s Domain, aside from leveling up, it was extremely difficult for players to obtain permanent Attributes .

Losing 400 HP, or the equivalent of 20 Endurance points, would significantly weaken a player .

Even Shi Feng would mourn the Attribute loss, let alone other players .

However, despite having seen the true side of the Power of Evolution, Shi Feng still chose to sacrifice 400 HP, albeit begrudgingly .

Although 400 HP was precious, it could not beat being able to upgrade the Icarus’s Heart to Epic rank . Moreover, Shi Feng knew of several methods to increase his Endurance permanently; he could easily make up for the loss he suffered now .

Shi Feng then clicked “Agree,” and suddenly, the strength of the Holy Grail’s Divine Might soared .

In the next moment, strands of green light flowed from Shi Feng’s body and into the Holy Grail . After the Holy Grail absorbed 400 HP from Shi Feng, it fired a purple ray at the Icarus’s Heart .

Immediately, the Icarus’s Heart released a brilliant golden glow, forcing Shi Feng to shut his eyes .

After the golden radiance faded, Shi Feng opened his eyes and looked at the Icarus’s Heart, discovering that the necklace now emitted a faint purple glow .

“Was it a success?” Shi Feng was somewhat nervous as he examined the necklace’s Attributes .

If it had failed, then he had permanently lost 400 HP for nothing . Moreover, he would also have to wait for ten days before the next sacrifice .

However, after investigating the Icarus’s Heart’s Attributes, Shi Feng’s tightened fists relaxed as excitement quickly overtook him .

That’s right; it was a success!

[Icarus’s Heart] (Necklace, Mysterious-Iron Rank [Can be evolved])

Equipment Requirement: All Attributes 120

Level 20 - Level 80 (Currently Level 30)

All Attributes +18

Luck +7

Additional Skill -

Divine Providence: Temporarily increases player’s Luck by 25 points for 30 seconds .

Cooldown: 45 minutes

Evolution Condition: Absorb the Life Force of 300 players to evolve to Secret-Silver Rank . (0/300)

After evolving, Icarus’s Heart’s rank had upgraded from Bronze to Mysterious-Iron . The Luck it provided had increased from 5 points to 7 points . Aside from that, Divine Providence’s Cooldown had decreased from one hour to 45 minutes . This would save Shi Feng a lot of time .

However, the best improvement by far was the change to the Evolution Conditions .

Originally, the Icarus’s Heart required Shi Feng to kill Lord ranked monsters . Moreover, it required 100 kills . Lords were extremely rare, and Shi Feng would have to waste a lot of time to kill 100 . Now that the conditions had been adjusted, Shi Feng only needed to kill 300 players and absorb their Life Force instead .

A Lord was very difficult to find, but players crowded the streets .

As long as Shi Feng worked hard, he could upgrade Icarus’s Heart to Epic rank very quickly . At that time, he would gain massive profits from opening the Twilight Treasure Chests .

At the thought, Shi Feng could not help but grow restless .

If not for the ongoing war with Overwhelming Smile, he would have struggled to find opponents . Now, however, his target was clear . He would use Overwhelming Smile’s players as sacrifices for the Icarus’s Heart .

Now that Overwhelming Smile’s White River City branch has been defeated, it won’t be easy to find large groups of players . I might as well make a trip to Maple City and have a look at the situation there . After some consideration, Shi Feng felt that Maple City was the best location to take action .

Overwhelming Smile had already become Maple City’s overlord . The Overwhelming Smile members there had nothing to fear within the region of Maple City . It would be far easier for Shi Feng to find targets there than in White River City .

Shi Feng then slipped the Icarus’s Heart over his head and headed for White River City’s Teleportation Hall .

Shi Feng very much looked forward to upgrading the Icarus’s Heart to Epic rank . Not even the night in God’s Domain could hinder Shi Feng’s yearning .

The sooner he upgraded the necklace to Epic rank, the sooner he could obtain better items from the Twilight Treasure Chests . One could obtain even Epic items from the Twilight Treasure Chests . If he could get his hands on several Epic items, he could help the guild tremendously . Naturally, he would upgrade it sooner rather than later .

As for the matter regarding the Light Stones, he fully trusted Melancholic Smile’s capabilities . Shi Feng believed that it wouldn’t be long before the Light Stones raked in a massive income .

Just as Shi Feng arrived before the Teleportation Hall, the sound of his communicator rang near his ears . The caller this time was none other than Gentle Snow, who had been busy consolidating her power as the new Guild Leader of Ouroboros .

Although Gentle Snow had chased away her biggest competitor, Cao Chenghua, the resulting internal struggles within Ouroboros had resulted in the first-rate Guild falling apart . If Gentle Snow wished to consolidate her power, she would need to spend a lot of time and effort to do so . In addition, a more powerful opponent, the first-rate Guild Star Alliance, lurked, waiting to strike .

Shi Feng had never thought that Gentle Snow would have the spare time to contact him with the burdens she currently shouldered .

“Guild Leader Black Flame, may I ask if you have the time to speak right now?”

In the video call, Gentle Snow still wore the calm and elegant smile she usually displayed . She looked like a goddess that was high above mortals . It felt as if she were in control of everything . However, though she appeared completely fine on the surface, her act did not deceive Shi Feng .

He could feel that Gentle Snow had grown frailer than before . Seeing a superwoman like Gentle Snow so exhausted, one could just imagine how terrible Ouroboros’s current situation was .

However, giving the situation some thought, Shi Feng felt that such an outcome was expected . Gentle Snow had just taken control of Ouroboros . The number of people she could trust was limited . Meanwhile, after ruling Ouroboros for so many years, Cao Chenghua would not give up so easily after being kicked out of his position . In addition to a great enemy like the Star Alliance threatening the Guild, it would be very difficult for Gentle Snow to cope .

“Miss Snow, there is no need to mince words . Our Guilds are allies, so feel free to speak your mind,” Shi Feng spoke candidly .

Gentle Snow revealed a bitter smile on her pure and delicate face upon hearing Shi Feng’s words . “Guild Leader Black Flame’s senses are as sharp as always . I’ll speak openly, then . I’m calling about the Candlelight Trading Firm that suddenly appeared on one of Star-Moon City’s golden Lands and the Candlelight Trading Firms in White River City . I can’t think of anyone in the entire Star-Moon Kingdom other than you who is capable of launching such firms . ”

“That’s right; I am indeed the founder . ” Shi Feng did not try to hide it . To begin with, he had no need to do so .

He had spoken with Gentle Snow about his plans to establish a Lifestyle Guild long ago . Back then, he had hoped to utilize Ouroboros’s fame to promote his Trading Firm . Even without Gentle Snow’s call today, he had prepared to seek her help to promote the Candlelight Trading Firm at an appropriate time .

As a first-rate Guild, Ouroboros had a large number of members scattered across Star-Moon Kingdom . Practically every major city in Star-Moon Kingdom housed the Guild’s members . There were even branches in other kingdoms . If the Guild helped with promotion, the Candlelight Trading Firm’s business would flourish .

However, the supply of Basic Strengthened Armor Kits simply could not meet the demand . Even if Ouroboros promoted the Firm right now, it would not significantly increase the Firm’s income; hence Shi Feng had decided to hold off on seeking Gentle Snow’s help for the moment .

“Excellent; this will make things easy . I want to invest into the Candlelight Trading Firm . I don’t want a lot of shares; 20% will do . Naturally, I will compensate you appropriately . The compensation will include 30% of Ouroboros’s shares, as well as funds, channels, and materials, which will allow the Trading Firm to develop quickly .

“What do you think of my offer?”
