Chapter 606: Item [Time Crystal] (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xiao Shi naturally hoped to drop exclusive items. After all, exclusive items were the key to whether he could refine this special area. Under Xiao Shi’s focused gaze, information about the item immediately appeared in his vision.
[Name: Time Crystal]
[Type: Crystal (Regional Exclusive Item)]
[Grade: Sage]
[Introduction: Back then, in order to create this strongest area, the Martial Emperor seized the aura left behind from five ancient eras, allowing this area to possess powerful items and power from five different eras.]
[Remark 1: This item belongs to this area exclusively. It can only be used in this area and can’t be brought out of the area.]
[Remark 2: Through the Time Crystal, it can be exchanged for exclusive items from five eras and any era.]
[Remark 3: You can choose an era, but you can’t choose exclusive items. After choosing an era, you will randomly obtain an exclusive item from that era.]
Xiao Shi’s heart skipped a beat.
As expected! The Martial Emperor had combined the creation of this area with the past eras. This was just as he had thought. However, Xiao Shi did not expect the Martial Emperor to actually obtain the remnants of five ancient eras at once.
Perhaps only an existence at the peak of the martial path like the Martial Emperor could do this! Now, the Time Crystal could allow him to exchange for exclusive items from five eras in this area. However, he could only choose the era and could not choose the exclusive items under the era.
This made Xiao Shi feel that he might need a certain amount of luck to use this item. If his luck was strong, he would have a chance to obtain the best exclusive treasure in the era. If his luck was weak, he might only obtain the most ordinary exclusive item in this era.
However, from the current situation, Xiao Shi felt that the exclusive item he had obtained through the first round should be the most ordinary exclusive item in the Heretic Martial Era. According to his speculation, the exclusive items in this special area should all be at the Sage level.
Which meant, even the most ordinary exclusive item would not be lower than a Sage. This way, there was no need for him to increase his luck through the Lucky Sacrificial Ring. After all, the Lucky Sacrificial Ring could only be sacrificed three times in total. Moreover, after sacrificing his lifespan last time, Xiao Shi did not have enough lifespan to make a second sacrifice.
Other than that, Xiao Shi also thought of the second possibility.
“Perhaps the key doesn’t depend on the quality of the exclusive items in the five eras, but on the choice of these five different eras. Perhaps there are no good or bad exclusive items in these five eras.
“For example, in the Heretic Martial era, there are only different special plants. There are no better exclusive items. If I choose an exclusive item from the Heretic Martial era, I will only randomly obtain one among many different special plants.”
After Xiao Shi read the relevant information of the Time Crystal again, he realized that there was no mention of differences in quality for the exclusive items in every era. Relatively speaking, he was more inclined to the latter. However, this required him to verify it.
After a short thought, Xiao Shi decided not to be in a hurry to use the Time Crystal. He planned to understand what exclusive items these five different eras had before making a decision. In any case, he currently had two exclusive items from the Heretic Martial era. It was enough.
Xiao Shi continued to walk along the official road towards the Holy Land with a group of guards. As he moved forward, he was also paying attention to the map in his hand. From the information on the map, he needed to pass a checkpoint before meeting up with the official roads belonging to other Martial Demon Realm cultivators.
Therefore he realized that the subsequent stages would no longer be single-player stages, but multiple-player stages. In fact, the second checkpoint that he was about to reach was already a multiple-player checkpoint.
However, after Xiao Shi killed the Martial Demon Realm expert, this made him need to pass the next round alone.
“The second checkpoint is definitely more difficult than the first checkpoint. The first checkpoint is not fatal, but the second checkpoint… might have a life and death crisis!”
Xiao Shi’s expression was solemn. He did not dare to relax or be careless at all. Apart from ensuring his own safety, he also had to avoid the deaths of the guards around him. These guards could not be killed by them, but they would still die in the checkpoint. Once these guards died, there would be no way to transport the demon avatar. Therefore, the survival of these guards was equally important.
After traveling for a while, Xiao Shi finally arrived at the second checkpoint with a group of guards. What appeared in front of them was an empty ground condensed from frost. The entire ground was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the blue sky. It looked beautiful and refreshing.
However, he was not in the mood to admire the beautiful scenery in front of him. He knew that this was the second checkpoint, and it would definitely be filled with danger. In order to prevent anything from happening to these guards, Xiao Shi decided to enter this checkpoint to investigate the situation first. Because he had already worn the Imperial Worship Robe for a day, Xiao Shi no longer had the domain formed by it. It would take three days before he could wear it again. Therefore, he had to investigate the danger of the second checkpoint first.
Only then could he think of a way to ensure the safety of these guards and to prevent them from dying in the checkpoint.
Crack!
When Xiao Shi stepped on the frosty ground, the entire ground immediately emitted a sound as if he was stepping on broken ice. A layer of frost instantly condensed on Xiao Shi’s feet. Fortunately, this layer of frost was not too firm. Xiao Shi exerted a little strength and it shattered all the frost. However, when Xiao Shi took another step forward, a new frost appeared on his feet.
“It seems that every step I take here will cause frost to form on my feet.” Xiao Shi was deep in thought. What was brought about by this frost was mainly the effect of action. If he only advanced slowly step by step, the impact would not be much. However, if he ran at a high speed here, he would be restricted by the frost.
Xiao Shi knew that the danger of this checkpoint was definitely not this kind of frost condensation. Just this frost condensation alone could not even be considered a crisis.
Xiao Shi walked forward step by step. This ice plain was empty. He did not encounter any danger after he walked for a distance. This made him frown. What was certain was that this round was definitely more difficult and dangerous than the first round. However, apart from the frost that condensed with every step he took, nothing else happened.
This was very bizarre.
“Could it be that because those guards didn’t follow me, I can’t trigger the danger in this checkpoint?” Xiao Shi had a guess. Regardless of this reason, he could no longer continue forward alone. He could not be too far away from his guards. There was a certain distance limit between them. Now, he has reached his limit.
So Xiao Shi could only return. He led these guards into the ice plain. Just like Xiao Shi, after these guards stepped on the frost ground, a layer of frost would condense on their feet. However, this did not affect them much. After all, they did not need to escape from this place by running at high speed.
After their group advanced for a while, the entire mirror-like smooth and bright ground suddenly rippled as they stepped out and landed on the frosty ground.
“It’s here!” Xiao Shi’s eyes suddenly turned cold..
