Chapter 256

Qin Zhan rolled his eyes with a scoff.

Su Liang was the type who typically wouldn't visit a temple without a reason.

Either he had a question!

Or he wanted something!

Otherwise!

Only others would look for him; he never looked for others!

"Speak, what is it?"

Qin Zhan asked indifferently.

"My Ninth-Turn quest requires me to find eight types of elemental divine power crystal materials within 88 days. I don't know if you, my lord, have any here."

Su Liang's expression turned solemn as he spoke seriously.

"What the hell!? What did you say?"

"Are you sure? The Ninth-Turn quest requires these things?"

Qin Zhan's tiger-like body shook, and he looked at Su Liang with disbelief.

He had only used this kind of elemental divine power crystal during his three-star difficulty Fourth-Tier Mythical job advancement quest……

And Su Liang?

He was only at the Ninth-Turn!?

"Sure, are these things very rare?"

Su Liang rubbed the tip of his nose and asked in confusion.

It was just materials for a Ninth-Turn quest, after all.

Qin Zhan was, at the very least, a Seventh-Tier Mythical powerhouse and the dignified State Lord of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Was it really that big of a deal?

"Rare?"

Qin Zhan's mouth twitched, and he sighed helplessly, saying: "It's more than just rare; the difficulty of obtaining these elemental divine power crystals is heaven-defying."

This was about Su Liang's five-star difficulty quest, after all!

"Oh."

Su Liang narrowed his eyes and pinched his chin.

"You need to pass the Mythical-tier dungeon 'Crystal World' and kill the final BOSS of the dungeon to obtain it, and the drop rate is only 1%."

"And it's not over yet; that's just the first step."

"The dropped item is called a Divine Power Crystal, and then you have to go to the 'Elemental Realm' dungeon, kill 20 Mythical BOSSes of a certain element, and let the crystal absorb enough elemental divine power to turn it into an elemental divine power crystal of that type."

"And every time you enter the Elemental Realm dungeon, the attributes of the elemental creatures are random, so the process of absorbing elemental power is entirely based on luck."

Qin Zhan said quite helplessly.

He only needed to randomize one type of elemental crystal back then, but even that was only completed because of good luck.

Old Man Su happened to have one in his hand, and it was one that had already absorbed half its energy.

Hearing this.

Su Liang was dumbfounded, wearing a frustrated expression.

Plus……

Every time a Mythical-tier dungeon is cleared, it requires a 7-day cooldown.

During this period.

No one can enter the dungeon.

This job advancement quest was too much of a pitfall.

The difficulty was heaven-defying; this was completely denying any chance of completing a five-star difficulty job advancement!

"I don't know, do you have any divine power crystals here now?"

Su Liang asked with a grave expression.

If he couldn't gather them, he would only be able to accept four-star difficulty quests in the future.

State Lord Qin Zhan waved his large hand.

A total of five fist-sized crystals appeared in front of Su Liang.

There were five colors inside.

Among them, the red divine power crystal was already filled throughout the entire crystal.

It had clearly finished absorbing the flame element.

As for the others, their progress was only about halfway……

Qin Zhan said slowly, "For over a decade, to prevent further quests requiring elemental divine power crystals, I have had people continuously farming these two dungeons, but…… there are still only these few."

Seeing this,

Su Liang frowned, his mind constantly thinking.

....... ........ 0

Even if his luck was heaven-defying, he was confident he could easily farm the remaining three crystals.

But the progress of absorbing the elements wasn't enough!

Suddenly!

A flash of inspiration struck his mind.

He hurriedly asked.

"State Lord, I remember…… isn't there a scroll that can refresh dungeon cooldowns?"

Qin Zhan nodded, then shook his head.

"Yes, a Dungeon Cooldown Refresh Scroll."

"But it's still not enough; this scroll's grade isn't high, it's only a Legendary-tier scroll, but it's very rare; I only have 8 of them!"

"Plus, with a 48-hour cooldown, even if the quantity is gathered, 88 days is still too tight."

Farming the dungeon once every two days, that's only 44 dungeon runs……

Far from enough!!!

To gather them, one would need to clear the dungeon at least 90 times to have a possibility of completing the quest.

And all of this is on the premise that……

Every divine power crystal is exactly filled, without a single instance of elemental absorption overflow.

That is……

He can only encounter 20 wind elemental Mythical BOSSes.

Not one more!

Not one less!

And he never encounters a fire elemental Mythical BOSS that is already full, and for other divine power crystals that are half-absorbed, he cannot encounter that elemental Mythical BOSS more than 10 times.

Adding up all these situations where luck must be off the charts……

It might be possible!

Hahaha!

Hearing this, Su Liang suddenly couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Others couldn't do it, but with the dungeon cooldown scroll, he could absolutely do it! Ding.

【Scroll · Dungeon Cooldown Refresh Scroll】 (Legendary)

【Level】: Lv1

【Skill】: After use, refreshes the cooldown of a certain dungeon. Cooldown 48 hours. (Each dungeon can only be used by one person; only after this person's usage cooldown ends can others continue to use it)

【Introduction】: A magical scroll that possesses the power to change time for a single entity……

……

Looking at the skill scroll, Su Liang couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

The note after the skill prevented the existence of bug exploits.

You cannot enter after someone else has used it.

You must wait for the previous user's cooldown to refresh before you can use it on that dungeon again.

But don't forget……

Su Liang has the "Super Refresh" skill!

Although the "Super Refresh" skill cannot be applied to equipment, treasures, and scrolls.

However,

As long as Su Liang uses "Error · Empty Hands" to steal it and turn it into a skill.

Wouldn't everything be solved!!!

He has 9 "Super Refresh" opportunities a day; he could farm the dungeon 90 times in 10 days!

There are still 87 days left until the quest deadline.

During this period!

Su Liang could farm it seven or eight hundred times!

With so many dungeon runs, wouldn't completing the absorption of elemental divine power be easy?

Mythical-tier scrolls are rare and precious, but are Legendary-tier scrolls hard to find?

As long as Su Liang just asks, there are plenty of people who want to curry favor with him.

Sending over thousands or tens of thousands of Legendary-tier scrolls……

"You have a way?"

Handing over a small stack of "Dungeon Cooldown Refresh Scrolls," State Lord Qin Zhan was stunned as he looked at the ecstatic Su Liang.

Both surprised and happy.

"Hehe."

Su Liang gave a mysterious chuckle.

He didn't answer.

Regarding this,

Qin Zhan didn't probe further; instead, he breathed a sigh of relief.

If Su Liang's five-star difficulty quest failed, it shouldn't be because of killing the BOSS.

It would be a huge loss if he got stuck on materials!

Su Liang had a Fifth-Tier Mythical BOSS soul apostle minion.

At the very least!

If he doesn't get stuck before the Mythical-tier!

The Sub-God-tier and First-Tier Mythical job advancement quests are very likely to be completed at the terrifying five-star difficulty as well!

You must know that the total attribute bonuses obtained from professional job advancements are calculated separately from equipment, talents, etc.……

They are calculated separately.

Every percentage point can increase the attribute bonuses of equipment, talents, and attribute points.

It is extremely important!

Especially the later it gets.

The higher the attributes, the greater the difference that is reflected!

……

After his heart was settled.

Su Liang finally took a look at these rare divine power crystals.

【Flame Divine Power Crystal】 (Treasure)

【Quality】: Mythical

【Level】: 1

【Attribute】: Fire-type skill output +100%

【Skill】: Divine Flame Scorching

【Divine Power】: Flame Divine Power 100%

【Effect】: A mysterious crystal that can absorb elemental power, infused with terrifying flame divine power.

"Divine Flame Scorching": Releases all the flame divine power in the crystal, dealing Spirit x 99999% fire-type spell damage to the target, and scorching the target for 99% seconds, deducting Spirit x 200% damage per second. Cooldown 24 hours. Consumes 10% flame divine power.

……

A pseudo-forbidden spell with decent single-target output, the cost of consumption is the flame divine power stored inside!

It can be considered a very special treasure.

Anyway, he has to farm it.

He can get a few more divine power crystals and store the subsequent overflowing elements to use as a single-target burst skill.

The effects and skills of the other divine power crystals are more or less the same.

He put away the five divine power crystals and the dungeon cooldown refresh scrolls.

He hurriedly bid farewell to State Lord Qin Zhan.

The next moment!

Su Liang's figure teleported to the wall of the ruin city.

Following the spatial coordinates given by Qin Zhan, he stepped into the ruin city, onto that gate which had already been built.

The Void Gate, surrounded by void energy and constantly rotating……

He stepped in.

Entering the Void World!

Su Liang silently recited the coordinates of the location he wanted to go to, and with another step, crossed the endless void.

In an instant!

Su Liang's figure appeared in the northernmost part of the Great Xia Kingdom.

In the freezing cold and howling winds……

Su Liang's primary target, the entrance to the "Crystal World" dungeon, stood here.

He definitely had to get his hands on the remaining three divine power crystals and collect all eight!

And then……

Get a few more, so the fault tolerance rate would be greatly increased!

Even if he encountered a fire elemental Mythical BOSS in the "Elemental Realm" that had already filled one crystal, there would be no loss.

He glanced at the dungeon.

At this time,

the vortex of the dungeon portal was in a stopped state.

This meant that the dungeon was currently on cooldown.

【Dungeon Name】: Mythical · Crystal World

【Dungeon Difficulty】: Normal, Hard, Nightmare

【Level Restriction】: Lv250

【Number of People Restriction】: 10 people

【Dungeon Introduction】: A world constructed from countless various crystal ores; everything you see could be a terrifying monster, be sure to be careful!

【Dungeon Cooldown】: 3 days 08 hours 56 minutes 31 seconds……

……

There were still a little over three days left until the dungeon cooldown was finished.

It seems……

State Lord Qin Zhan must have just had someone farm it four days ago.

Su Liang rubbed his chin.

This is a 10-person dungeon, and its map won't be as large as the Spider's Kingdom of Niru.

He should be able to speed-run it, not exceeding two hours.

"Empty Hands"!

Subsequently, Su Liang raised his hand.

He launched a theft attempt at the "Scroll · Dungeon Cooldown Refresh" in his backpack.

【Ding! Congratulations to the player for successfully activating the talent "Empty Hands," stealing: "Dungeon Cooldown Refresh" (Skill)!】

It turned into a skill in his possession!

Without hesitation, Su Liang used it directly on the dungeon entrance!
