Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 163: Searching with a Wooden Stick, Fourth Rank Demon Beast!
"So, not finding the refreshed Hall Crystal doesn't mean that luck has lost its effect?"
Entering the Dream World once again, Yue Li felt a sense of relief in her eyes upon hearing Qin Chuan's explanation about the refresh rules of the Hall Crystal.
The threefold luck from yesterday had failed to find the Hall Crystal, dealing quite a blow to her.
She was not the type to accept one-sided efforts from others. Luo's Talent could not only be used by himself but also by her. Under such circumstances, if she couldn't help in return, the interaction between the two would make her uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the truth wasn't so bad.
"You have a gold-level Talent—how could a mere Hall Crystal not be affected?" Detecting the change in the girl's expression and her inner thoughts, Qin Chuan inwardly sighed with relief, soon presenting a similar smile, "We've now encountered a minor problem."
"There are three days left until the next refresh of the Sun Needle."
"In these three days, which way should we go?"
Hearing this, Yue Li wore a pensive expression.
She understood what Qin Chuan meant.
If nothing unexpected happened, the Hall Crystal would currently be thirty sectors away from them, and the points satisfying this condition formed a circle on the map.
At full speed, it would take five to six days to cover the distance of thirty sectors.
They couldn't simply wait in place for three days, so the direction they chose to travel in the next three days was crucial.
If by chance the Hall Crystal was directly along their path, they could save a few days' journey.
If, after three days, they targeted the Hall Crystal and discovered that it was in the opposite direction to their travel, they would waste a lot of time doubling back.
After pondering for a moment, Yue Li seemed to have a good idea, her eyes lighting up as she looked at Qin Chuan with a smile, "Why don't we leave the choice to luck?"
Such a suggestion would seem ludicrous if made by anyone else, but coming from the owner of the Prayer Talent, it was a different story.
Qin Chuan showed an interested expression, "How do you propose we do that?"
"Wait for me!" Yue Li ran to a nearby bush, broke off a branch, stripped it of forks, and made a mark on one end before running back to Qin Chuan.
She threw the stick forcefully into the air, shouting, "The marked direction will be our forward path!"
For some reason, this scene appeared to Qin Chuan to be akin to casting spells in movies, and combined with the girl's serious demeanor, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
The stick spun in the air, soon landing on the ground in front of them with the marked end pointing southwest.
"There, it's decided." Yue Li's eyes curved in a smile, perhaps because the rules for the Hall Crystal had relieved some of the tension in her heart, or perhaps because her relationship with Qin Chuan was growing closer, allowing her to reveal more of herself. The girl's smile was radiant, revealing a set of small fangs.
"Three days from now will be the moment when luck is revealed!"
-----------------
"Buzz—"
The vibration of his phone roused Qin Chuan, who was practicing the Unnamed Breathing Skill, opening his eyes and temporarily halting his cultivation.
Three days had passed since Yue Li threw the stick, and it had been more than ten days since Qin Chuan obtained the Unnamed Cultivation Method.
He had already fully mastered it and insisted on practicing daily.
The effects of the Unnamed Breathing Skill were quite impressive.
Qin Chuan had assessed his situation, realizing that without this breathing technique, if he had continued as before, focusing solely on the Basic Boxing Skill with the same Extraordinary Value, his overall strength would've likely decreased by 10%.
Even without employing any Extraordinary Abilities, his body's comprehensive quality was already sufficient to grapple with Second Rank Demon Beasts, and ordinary firearms posed a minimal threat to him.
And this was only after cultivating for a mere ten-plus days.
Although there was a "beginner's bonus" that yielded better results at the start of cultivation, this was still astonishing.
He casually clenched his fist and picked up his phone, quickly noticing a new invitation for a Special Affairs cooperative mission.
During this period, an invitation for a Special Affairs cooperative mission was sent to him every few days, and each time such a mission arose, it meant that at least several Third Rank demon beasts had appeared.
The increasingly rapid growth and reproduction rate of demon beasts had made the situation extraordinarily urgent.
Inside Yanhuang Country, the Special Affairs Group was the first to detect and rush to battlefields to continue fighting. The large population base had produced a sufficient number of Transcendents, at least maintaining the stability of the social order. It was said that some small countries were on the verge of collapse under the onslaught of demon beasts.
And at this moment, when all the countries were too busy to attend to anything else, these small nations were helpless and isolated.
After securing his guaranteed spot, Qin Chuan had some downtime and wasn't refusing such missions. In fact, just by partaking in Special Affairs cooperative missions, he had already accumulated tens of thousands of Special Points.
He casually replied "I'll participate" and began to carefully read the details of this mission.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
Moments later, his expression turned solemn.
A Fourth Rank demon beast had appeared!
Had the situation become this perilous?
Although he had anticipated the appearance of a Fourth Rank demon beast might not be far off when that level 28 Third Rank demon beast appeared, it was still too soon.
Such a demon beast, even Teacher Ji probably couldn't handle it, right?
Qin Chuan glanced at his own panel.
[Current Extraordinary Value: 32350]
[Current Passive Skills: Star·Water Master, Star·Frost Cold, Star·Dark Flame]
[Current Active Skills: Star·Dark Current Binding, Star·Frost Trace, Star·Shadow Erosion]
[Item Carrying: 1/1][View]
With Silver Horn's breakthrough to Elite Rank and Water Flower's advancement to Hall Rank, the continuous increase in Clan Value and Affinity had officially pushed his Extraordinary Value past the 30,000 mark.
Since he couldn't use Spirit Descent for the time being, under normal circumstances, Qin Chuan wouldn't forcibly seek resonance but would choose one active skill from each of the three Spiritual Beasts to ensure diversity in attributes and offensive methods.
He put down his phone, made some quick preparations, and soon went downstairs.
The transport personnel had already arrived.
Half an hour later, at the mission location, Qin Chuan saw Ji Huai.
"You're here," Ji Huai glanced at Qin Chuan, "There are six Third Rank demon beasts in the valley, and one Fourth Rank demon beast. Later, you take on the six Third Rank beasts, and I'll handle the Fourth Rank."
"Huh?" Hearing Ji Huai's division of labor, Qin Chuan couldn't help but show a look of astonishment.
Seeing Qin Chuan's expression, Ji Huai fell silent for a moment, "Last night at the weekly tally, my second Spiritual Beast broke through to Elite Rank."
Qin Chuan realized what had happened.
As the world continuously discovered more and more rare resources, the number of Elite Level players had already surpassed twenty.
Ji Huai, who had initially received a skew in resources from the Special Affairs Group, was naturally among the beneficiaries.
Several days ago, Ji Huai already had one Spiritual Beast break through to Elite Rank.
Now, it seemed that he had obtained the necessary second rare resource.
There was a vast array of rare resources, and while coming across one that you needed wasn't difficult, encountering two at the same time was another story.
So whether one could break through, and who would break through first, largely depended on luck at this point.
Clearly, the Weapon Master before him was in luck.
