"A mysterious treasure map? Interesting."

Translation: "A mysterious treasure map? Kind of interesting."

Each fragment is of legendary quality; combining all nine would undoubtedly be at least mythic quality.

Translation: One fragment is Legendary quality; if nine fragments are combined, there is no doubt it is at least Mythic quality.

A mythic‑grade treasure map—its value goes without saying!

Translation: A Mythic-level treasure map—its value is self-evident!

"When you have time, ask at the Treasure Merchants' Guild to see if anyone is selling the same shards."

Translation: "When you have time, go ask the Treasure Merchant Association if anyone is selling the same fragments."

Xiao Feng muttered to himself and immediately returned to the main city.

"Get out of the way! Don't block the path!"

Translation: "Get out of the way! Don't block the path!"

The city guards of Dragon Blood City remain as fierce as ever; a level‑100 Xiao Feng was ruthlessly shoved aside by a level‑130 soldier.

Translation: The city guards of Long Xue Cheng were still as fierce as ever; a level 100 Xiao Feng was ruthlessly shoved aside by a level 130 soldier.

Xiao Feng has long grown accustomed to this and doesn't care at all.

Translation: Xiao Feng had long grown accustomed to this; he didn't care at all.

"Hey, look—Xiao Feng, who's rank 1 on the leaderboard, has already reached level 100!"

Translation: "Hey, look—Xiao Feng, who is rank one on the Level Ranking, has already reached level 100!"

"Someone reaching level 100 means the national border is about to open!"

Translation: "Someone reaching level 100 means the border is about to open!"

"Whoa, I'm only level 44—how did Xiao Feng manage that?"

Translation: "Holy crap, I'm only level 44—how did Xiao Feng manage that?"

Near the teleportation array, many players were chatting about the latest news.

Translation: Near the Teleportation Array, many players were discussing the latest news.

Everyone knows how strong Xiao Feng is, but many still don't understand how he levels up so fast.

Translation: Everyone knows Xiao Feng is strong, but many still don't understand his rapid leveling speed.

Even though garrison defense battles grant a lot of experience, it's nowhere near that extreme.

Translation: Even if garrison defense battles provide a lot of experience, it's nowhere near that exaggerated.

At the end of the day, it's because Daphinia gave him too much!

Translation: After all, it's just that Dai Fei Ao Na gave too much!

Ignoring the crowd, Xiao Feng teleported to Blaze City and headed toward the Earthcore Lake.

Translation: Xiao Feng ignored everyone, teleported to Flame City, and headed toward Earthcore Lake.

The road is a bit long, and the journey is boring.

Translation: This road is a bit long, and the journey is boring.

He opened the system menu to check information about the national border.

Translation: He opened the system function to check information about the "border".

The Azure Star war zone has only one border line: between 'Dragon Nation' and 'Other Nations'.

Translation: The Blue Star war zone has only one border line: the "Dragon Nation" and "Other Nations".

Players in the overseas half‑zone have gone berserk; players from over a dozen populous nations are fighting fiercely over resources and guild rankings.

Translation: Now, players in the overseas half-zone have gone berserk; players from over a dozen populous nations are fighting fiercely over resources and guild rankings.

Dragon Nation, by contrast, remains very stable; even when conflicts arise, their scale is not large.

Translation: As for the Dragon Nation, it is very stable; even if there are conflicts, their scale is not large.

There are two factors that influence the opening of the national border.

Translation: There are two factors affecting the opening of the border.

First, if the war zone reaches 100,000 players who have undergone third‑class advancement and are level 100, the border will definitely open.

Translation: First, if the number of players who have undergone three advancements and reached level 100 in the entire war zone reaches 100,000, it will definitely open.

Second, if any one of the three level‑1 main cities is unsealed early, it will cause the border symbolized by the three level‑3 main cities to open completely.

Translation: Second, if any one of the three level‑1 main cities is unlocked ahead of schedule, it will also cause the border symbolized by the three level‑3 main cities to open completely.

Judging by level alone, gathering 100,000 level‑100 players will still take a long time.

Translation: If we look at the level requirement, gathering 100,000 level‑100 players actually still takes a long time.

Xiao Feng, Lucky Cat, and overseas players like 'Battleaxe' may be far ahead in level, but they don't represent the majority.

Translation: Xiao Feng, Xing Yun Miao, and the overseas player nicknamed "Zhan Fu", etc., although their levels are far ahead, cannot represent the majority.

Only when the first‑tier players all reach level 100 will it truly be the day the border opens.

Translation: Only when the first‑tier players all reach level 100 will it truly be the day the border opens.

So the border won't open that quickly; at the very least, it's unlikely to happen within a week of game time.

Translation: So the border won't open that quickly; at the very least, it's unlikely within a week of game time.

"Old Xiao, old Xiao! Good news!"

Translation: "Old Xiao, Old Xiao! Good news!"

Just as Xiao Feng was rushing to Earthcore Lake, Li Li suddenly sent a chat request.

Translation: Just as Xiao Feng was rushing to Earthcore Lake, Li Li suddenly sent a chat request.

"What good news? Are you and Shield‑shield junior going to hand out candy?" Xiao Feng joked.

Translation: "What good news? Are you and Junior Dun Dun going to spread the sweetness?" Xiao Feng joked.

"No, it's your good news!" Li Li emphasized.

Translation: "No, it's your good news!" Li Li emphasized.

"Uh, me and Shield‑shield junior handing out candy?"

Translation: "Uh, me and Junior Dun Dun spreading sweetness?"

"Forget your sister's candy! Your evil spirit boss has been found!" Li Li said irritably.

Translation: "Spread your sister's sweetness! Your evil spirit boss has been found!" Li Li said impatiently.

"Holy crap! Where is it!"

Translation: "Holy shit! Where is it!"

Upon hearing this news, Xiao Feng immediately became unsettled.

Translation: Upon hearing this news, Xiao Feng immediately became unsettled.

The Four Great Evil Spirits divine‑level quest is tied to the unlocking of a level‑2 main city.

Translation: The Four Great Evil Spirits divine‑level quest is related to the unlocking of the second‑level main city.

Its rewards are so rich you could figure them out with your toes!

Translation: Its rewards are so rich that even thinking with your toes you know it!

He had been worried about not being able to find these bosses, but he never expected to get news today.

Translation: He had been worried about not being able to find these bosses, but he never expected to get news today.

Li Li replied: 'I just got the news too—it was discovered in a dungeon map near Elephant City, and its level is higher than any we've faced before, level 140!'

Translation: Li Li replied: "I also just got the news—it was found in an earth palace map near Giant Elephant City, and its level is higher than any we've encountered before, level 140!"

'Level 140? No problem, I can solo it.' Xiao Feng wasn't worried about whether he could win; he just wanted to know where the boss is.

Translation: "Level 140? No problem, I can solo it." Xiao Feng wasn't worried about whether he could win; he just wanted to know where the boss is.

'For you it's not a problem, but someone's already fighting it!' Li Li said.

Translation: "For you it's not a problem, but someone is already fighting it!" Li Li said.

Xiao Feng froze upon hearing that.

Translation: Xiao Feng froze upon hearing that.

Besides him, is there anyone else who can defeat a level‑140 mythic boss?

Translation: Besides him, who else could defeat a level 140 Mythic boss?

'What's going on? Explain clearly!' he frowned.

Translation: "What exactly is going on? Explain clearly!" he frowned.

Li Li began to explain in detail.

Translation: Li Li explained in detail.

'This Evil Spirit Demon Sword was discovered by accident by a solo player squad in a hidden map called the Ancient Dungeon within the Yellow Sands region; it's the first boss. The Ancient Dungeon is essentially a 150‑level team legendary story dungeon, extremely difficult— that squad was wiped out outright. Later they sold the dungeon to the All‑World Guild; the invincible All‑World brought a 50‑person team in, but they also failed and were wiped out. Now they're recruiting elite players; Sword‑Slay‑Heaven has already gone, and with him there, it might actually be cleared.'

Translation: "This Evil Spirit Demon Sword was discovered by accident by a lone‑player squad; it lies in a hidden map called the Ancient Earth Palace within the Yellow Sand Land region, and it is the first boss. The Ancient Earth Palace is essentially a 150‑level team legendary story dungeon, extremely difficult; that squad was wiped out outright. Later they sold the dungeon to members of the World Guild, and Invincible Under Heaven led a 50‑person team in, but they also failed and were wiped out. Now they are recruiting elite players; Sword Slaying the Heavens has already gone, and with him there, there might be a chance to clear it!"

After hearing this, Xiao Feng furrowed his brows deeply.

Translation: After hearing that, Xiao Feng furrowed his brows deeply.

How is it the All‑World Guild again?

Translation: How come it's the World Guild again?

Although it was found by solo players, being taken over by the All‑World Guild and having them assemble a high‑level player team to go there is not good news.

Translation: Although it was discovered by a lone player, it was taken over by members of the World Guild, who formed a high‑level player team to go there—this is not good news.

If the Evil Spirit boss is killed by someone else, he will never be able to complete this quest!

Translation: If the Evil Spirit boss is killed by someone else, he will never be able to complete this quest!

Most importantly, this dungeon belongs to that squad of solo players!

Translation: The crucial point is that this dungeon belongs to that lone‑player squad!

To open the dungeon, one of those original players must personally lead the team; since they've sold the dungeon to the Invincible All‑World, the only way to get entry permission is from them.

Translation: To open the dungeon, one of those people must personally lead the team; since they have already sold the dungeon to Invincible Under Heaven, the only way to get entry permission is from Invincible Under Heaven.

But obviously, given Xiao Feng's grudge against the Invincible All‑World, they will never let him in!

Translation: But it's obvious that, given the grudge between Xiao Feng and Invincible Under Heaven, the other side would never let him in!

As for the possibility of the dungeon being cleared…

Translation: As for the possibility of clearing the dungeon……

Legendary‑tier team dungeons are the hardest in the game, because they lack a 'mythic' quality tier—so the bosses of legendary dungeons are already all mythic bosses.

Translation: Legendary‑level team dungeons are the hardest in the game, because they lack a "Mythic" quality, so the leaders of legendary dungeons are already all Mythic bosses.

A 50‑person team dungeon further multiplies the boss's HP by 20 and doubles its attack and defense, making it far harder than a regular mythic boss.

Translation: A 50‑person team dungeon further multiplies the boss's HP by 20 and doubles its attack and defense, making it far harder than ordinary Mythic bosses.

This 150-level dungeon normally requires a team of elite 150-level players to clear; a 100-level player's hope is slim.

As for 2nd-transfer players at level 50, being able to defeat one or two bosses is already not bad; clearing it is impossible.

Invincible Under Heaven leading a team in, the chance of failure is at least ninety-nine percent.

But there's also Jian Zhan Cang Sheng, so it's hard to say!

Xiao Feng has crossed swords with Jian Zhan Cang Sheng and knows how high the opponent's attack power is.

If their teamwork is seamless enough, they could continuously revive Jian Zhan Cang Sheng, and maybe they could truly rely on damage to push past the first boss, the Evil Spirit Magic Sword!

After all, the Evil Spirit Magic Sword is just the first boss, equivalent to the weakest one inside!

"Old Xiao, what are you planning to do?" Li Li asked.

Xiao Feng pondered, his brows furrowed with worry.

"I can't miss this boss, but Invincible Under Heaven definitely won't give up the spot……"

"Then we'll have to…… start from the instance owner!"

"The only way is to secure the captain, then have that captain bring me in!"

"At the 150-level Legendary group dungeon, Xiao Feng doesn't dare say he has a hundred percent confidence to clear it."

"But just the first boss? That's absolutely no problem!"

"Old Li, help me…… never mind, I'll look for Zhan Tian, Zhu Long, and Shen Di!"

Xiao Feng originally wanted Li Li to help him gather information on the instance owner and add a friend to purchase the permission.

But upon second thought, Li Li is actually just an ordinary player, merely with more sensitive information.

To persuade someone who has already sold the instance permission, one must come up with enough hype!

Zhan Tian, Zhu Long, and Shen Di—these three are on the same level as Invincible Under Heaven, even slightly higher, as the grand guild leaders.

Having these three step forward, the chance of success is countless times higher than Li Li and himself.

"Hmm, I can't help with this either; let them give it a try. If they manage to snag the spot, I don't mind tagging along with you." Li Li said, and then hung up the chat.

Xiao Feng doesn't have time for third-transfer now; first, snagging the instance is the top priority!

He opened his friend list, created a temporary chat group, and pulled Zhan Tian, Zhu Long, and Shen Di into it.

"Three bosses, I have a matter I'd like to ask for your help." Xiao Feng got straight to the point, directly stating his intention.

"Huh? This little group?"

"What matter is so serious that it requires all three of us to step forward?"

"Is Xiao Feng Jr. being blocked by a level 250 demigod? Haha~"

The three guild leaders all felt surprised, never expecting Xiao Feng to proactively ask them for help, and moreover, all three at once.
