Chapter 169: Wooden Stick Object Search, Fourth-Tier Demon Beast!

So, not finding the refreshed Hall Tier Crystal doesn't mean luck has lost its effect?

Entering the Dream World again, hearing Qin Chuan's explanation of the Hall Tier Crystal refresh rules, Yue Li's eyes showed a relaxed smile.

Yesterday's triple luck failed to find the Hall Tier Crystal, dealing her a heavy blow.

She is not someone who can accept one-sided giving from others; Luo's talent can be used not only by himself but also by her, and in this situation, if she cannot help him, getting along would make her feel uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the truth of the matter is not that bad.

"You have a golden talent; how could a mere Hall Tier Crystal possibly not be affected?" Sensing the change in the girl's thoughts from her expression, Qin Chuan secretly let out a breath of relief, then his face showed the same smile: "We've run into a small problem."

"There are still three days until the next refresh of the sundial hand."

"These three days, which direction should we go?"

Hearing this, Yue Li showed a thoughtful expression.

She understood Qin Chuan's meaning.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Hall Tier Crystal is currently located thirty zones away from the two of them, and the positions that satisfy this condition form a circle on the map.

Without using supernatural abilities, his overall physical quality is already enough to fight a second-tier demon beast, and ordinary firearms pose hardly any threat to him.

If anyone else said that, it would be nonsense, but if the speaker is the owner of the Life-Praying Talent, then it's another matter.

The phone's vibration caused Qin Chuan, who was practicing the Nameless Breathing Method, to open his eyes, temporarily ending his cultivation.

"All set." Yue Li's eyes curved; perhaps the Hall Tier Crystal's rules let her tense heart relax a bit, or perhaps her growing closeness with Qin Chuan allowed her to show more of herself; the girl's smile was bright, revealing a pair of small tiger teeth.

Qin Chuan had assessed his own situation; if he had not obtained this breathing method, continuing to train basic fist techniques as before, with the same supernatural value, his overall strength would probably drop by about 10%.

"Wait for me down!" Yue Li jogged over to a nearby bush, snapped off a branch, removed the forks, marked one end, and ran back to Qin Chuan.

If the Hall Tier Crystal happens to lie exactly ahead of their direction of travel, they could save several days' journey.

And this is merely the effect of cultivating for over ten days.

She forcefully threw the wooden stick in her hand into the air, shouting at the same time, "The marked direction is the direction we will proceed next!"

If, after three days, they lock onto the Hall Tier Crystal and find it lies opposite to their direction, they would waste considerable time backtracking.

After a moment's thought, Yue Li seemed to have come up with a good idea; her eyes lit up, and she glanced at Qin Chuan beside her with a smiling, narrowed gaze, saying, "Why don't we leave the choice to luck?"

They cannot simply wait in place for three days, so the choice of direction for the next three days is crucial.

The effect of the Nameless Breathing Method is also quite powerful.

The wooden stick traced circles in the air as it flew, soon landing on the ground before them, with the marked end pointing southwest.

Three days have passed since Yue Li threw the wooden stick, and Qin Chuan has had the Nameless Cultivation Method for over ten days as well.

By now he has completely mastered it and persists in daily practice.

At a distance of thirty zones, even if they travel at full speed now, it will take five or six days.

"In three days, it will be the moment luck is revealed!"

——

"Hum——"

For some reason, in Qin Chuan's view beside her, this scene looked exactly like the process of casting spells and chanting incantations in a film or drama, and with the girl's serious demeanor, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

After hearing, Qin Chuan showed an interested expression: "How should we do it?"

Although there is a "newbie period benefit" where the initial training effects are better, this is still astonishing.

Idly clenching his fist, Qin Chuan picked up his phone and soon saw a new Special Affairs Cooperation Mission invitation.

During this period, every few days he receives a Special Affairs Cooperation Mission invitation, and each time such a mission appears, it means at least several third-tier demon beasts have emerged.

The ever-increasing growth and reproduction speed of demon beasts makes the situation exceptionally tense.

Within the Yan Huang State, the Special Affairs Group detects and rushes to the battlefield immediately to fight continuously; the huge population base has given birth to enough supernatural beings, at least able to maintain social order stability, and it is said that some small countries, under the demon beasts' offensive, are already on the verge of collapse.

And at this moment when all countries are preoccupied with themselves, these small countries are isolated and helpless.

After obtaining the recommendation qualification, Qin Chuan had free time; he does not refuse such missions, and in fact, relying solely on Special Affairs Cooperation Missions, he has already accumulated over ten thousand Special Affairs Points.

He casually replied "Participate," and Qin Chuan began to carefully read the details of this mission.

After a moment, his expression turned grave.

A fourth-tier demon beast has appeared!

Has the situation become this dangerous?

Although when that 28-level third-tier demon beast appeared earlier, he had a premonition that a fourth-tier demon beast might not be far off, but in the end it was still too fast.

Such a demon beast, Teacher Ji probably can't handle it either, right?

Qin Chuan glanced at his own panel.

【Current Supernatural Value: 32350】

【Current Passive Skills: Star·Water Master, Star·Frost Cold, Star·Dark Flame】

【Current Active Skills: Star·Dark Current Bind, Star·Seek Frost Trace, Star·Shadow Erosion Body】

【Items Carried: 1/1】 【View】

With Silver Horn breaking through to Elite Tier and Shui Hua advancing to Hall Tier, the consecutive increases in race value and favorability allowed his supernatural value to officially break the thirty-thousand mark.

Since he cannot currently use Spirit Descent, under normal circumstances Qin Chuan will not force a resonance; instead, he selects one active skill from each of the three spirit beasts, ensuring diversity in attributes and attack methods.

He put down his phone, made a quick preparation, and soon went downstairs.

The pick-up personnel have already arrived.

Half an hour later, at the mission site, Qin Chuan saw Ji Huai's figure.

"Here." Ji Huai glanced at Qin Chuan, "There are six third-tier demon beasts and one fourth-tier demon beast in the valley; later I'll give you the six third-tier demon beasts to handle, and I'll take the fourth-tier demon beast."

"Huh?" Hearing Ji Huai's division of labor, Qin Chuan couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

Seeing Qin Chuan's expression, Ji Huai fell silent for a moment, then said, "Last night's weekly settlement, my second spirit beast broke through to Elite Tier."

Qin Chuan realized.

Around the world, more and more rare-class resources have been discovered one after another, and now the number of elite-tier players has exceeded twenty.

Initially, Ji Huai, who had received resource bias from the Special Affairs Group, naturally could not fail to benefit.

As early as several days ago, Ji Huai already had a Spirit Beast that had broken through to the Elite Tier.

Now it appears that he has obtained the second required rare-class resource.

There are many types of rare-class resources; finding one that is needed is not difficult, but finding two needed ones at the same time is not easy.

So whether one can break through, and who does so first, currently depends more on luck.

Obviously, the Weapon Master before him has good luck.
