Chapter 1 Library of the Cold Wind City

Stepping into the Cold Wind City's library, Shi Feng felt as if he had entered another world.

This library had no books on display. Instead, a star-studded ceiling resembled the night sky. The walls were lined with shrubs, forming a cloistered staircase. Streams and small bridges dotted the hall, and crystalline water orbs rose from the streams and dissipated, creating a beautiful scene.

All these streams originated from a single place: a massive water orb suspended in the center of the hall.

The magnificent sight far surpassed even the Star-Moon Kingdom's library.

"What an incredible library! It's entirely controlled by magic water orbs, and the magic density is twice that of the outside world. If I study magic here, the effect will definitely be two or three times better," Shi Feng thought, surprised as he sensed the magic within.

However, Shi Feng was quite surprised that there weren't many mana-based players in the library. Looking around, there were only two or three hundred people, which was a bit too few for a library.

Shi Feng didn't know that to enter the Cold Wind City library, one's reputation had to reach the rank of Baron in Cold Wind City. Unlike other libraries, where you could enter as long as you were a noble, even without a title.

If Shi Feng hadn't been using the Demon Hunter title, he wouldn't have been able to enter the library and would have been kicked out by the level 180 NPC guards.

Shi Feng didn't think too much about it and went straight to the massive water orb in the center to search for information on the Eternal Ice Crystal.

Searching directly through the magic water orb was much more convenient than flipping through the books on the shelves.

"There's a lot of information." Shi Feng clicked his tongue slightly as he looked at the hundred or so entries about the Eternal Ice Crystal that appeared.

Generally, having more than a dozen entries of information was already impressive enough for players to find what they wanted. But the Eternal Ice Crystal had over a hundred entries, practically guaranteeing he would find it.

Then, Shi Feng quickly began to browse through the information.

"How could this be!" Shi Feng was shocked as he looked at the information displayed on the water orb.

The Eternal Ice Crystal was the Mana Source Crystal he had been searching for, but the Eternal Ice Crystal was affected by the power of the Ice Crystal World, carrying extremely strong ice power. As for the location of the Eternal Ice Crystal, it was in the various forbidden life zones of the Ice Crystal World, and any Boss of Great Lord rank or higher had a chance to drop it.

However, what dropped was not a complete Eternal Ice Crystal, but Ice Crystal Shards. The drop rate was very low, and ten Ice Crystal Shards were needed to synthesize one complete Eternal Ice Crystal, with a success rate of only 50%.

"No wonder the time limit is one month. The difficulty is indeed extraordinary." Shi Feng frowned slightly. Although the Ice and Snow Great Rift was a forbidden life zone, there weren't many wild Bosses inside. Adding to the extremely low drop rate, it was hard to say how long it would take to get just one, let alone ten. "It seems I have to hurry."

The Eternal Ice Crystal was the Mana Source Crystal, and the Mana Source Crystal was a necessary material for the Abyssal Blade in his hands to advance.

A Tier 1 Abyssal Blade was already very strong, especially in terms of compatibility, which was significantly higher than epic weapons. However, in terms of attributes, it was still slightly inferior to top-tier epic weapons.

He had thought about advancing the Abyssal Blade before, but he couldn't find the Mana Source Crystal at all, so he had left it on hold.

If he could evolve the Abyssal Blade once again, he would have more confidence in dealing with the guardian Boss of the Ancient God Temple later.

Thinking of this, Shi Feng felt that establishing the Asura Adventurer Team in Cold Wind City was the right thing to do. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to obtain so many Eternal Ice Crystals in a short period of time.

Then, Shi Feng quickly left the library and went straight to the Asura Adventurer Team's residence.

On the other side, the new benefits of the Asura Adventurer Team caused a wave of uproar among the players around who wanted to see a joke.

"Are you kidding me! Adventurer Team contribution points can be exchanged for combat techniques?"

"The Asura Adventurer Team is actually willing to teach people combat techniques! Even the two major guilds don't have this kind of treatment!"

...

Many expert players in Cold Wind City often went to the God and Demon Arena to PK, but only a handful of players had mastered combat techniques, and all of them were treated as family heirlooms, never taught to anyone.

They were very clear about the power of combat techniques. The combat power of players who had mastered combat techniques and those who had not was not at the same level at all.

Moreover, the process of learning combat techniques was also very helpful for improving technical skills. Because of this, all players who had mastered combat techniques were unwilling to spread them. Even if many people were willing to agree to various harsh conditions and were willing to pay a lot of price, it was useless.

But now, the Asura Adventurer Team was willing to take it out and teach it, which stunned everyone for a while.

As for whether the Asura Adventurer Team would deceive them, they were very relieved. After all, Shi Feng was the number one expert in Cold Wind City. Being so powerful, he must know a lot of combat techniques. It was not strange to be willing to take out one or two combat techniques. Moreover, the more powerful experts paid more attention to their promises. It was just an adventurer team recruiting people. As long as Shi Feng lowered the threshold a little, he could form an adventurer team of thousands of people in minutes.

There was no need to deceive them at all.

After a while, the registration point, which was originally deserted, was suddenly crowded with people, all rushing up anxiously.

Many players with combat power reaching the fourth floor of the Trial Tower also began to frantically ask Lonely Nine Extremes to give them a chance to become reserve members.

This suddenly made the very idle Lonely Nine Extremes and others busy. The liveliness completely exceeded imagination. Large numbers of experts who had reached the fifth floor of the Trial Tower came to register like crazy. Many of them were main members of well-known adventurer teams, and there were also experts from the two major guilds.

In less than thirty minutes, more than a hundred people became official members of the Asura Adventurer Team, and more than five hundred became reserve members.

Lonely Nine Extremes rejected all players whose combat power did not reach the fourth floor of the Trial Tower, and told them to come back when they reached the fourth floor.

As for the news that the Asura Adventurer Team was teaching combat techniques, it quickly spread throughout the city, causing all the players in Cold Wind City to start talking about it, all wanting to join the Asura Adventurer Team.

However, the two major guilds were very headache about this matter. Originally, they wanted to laugh at the high requirements of the Asura Adventurer Team, but now they only felt helpless. Gathering so many experts together and teaching them combat techniques, it was foreseeable that in a short period of time, the overlord of Cold Wind City would definitely be the Asura Adventurer Team...

"President, I have already informed Hecate about the matter, but the number of players who have officially joined the Asura Adventurer Team has exceeded five hundred. According to this speed, I am afraid that before Hecate opens the passage, the Asura Adventurer Team will become the absolute ruler of Cold Wind City." Di Yufeng looked at the statistics in his hand, feeling unspeakable shock in his heart.

He did not understand how Shi Feng suddenly appeared.

In his opinion, the concept of an expert was to be able to take the head of a general from among thousands of troops, which was his ultimate goal. Even the strongest expert was nothing more than that.

However, Shi Feng only said one sentence, saying that he wanted to establish an adventurer team, and he took down Cold Wind City, which their Peerless Family had spent so much effort to compete for for so long, in minutes...

"No, you go to...no...we will go to the Wave Heart Adventurer Team now, even if we pay a higher price, we must win over the Wave Heart Adventurer Team to our side to deal with the Asura Adventurer Team." Lei Zhentian got up quickly.

He did not ask the Wave Heart Adventurer Team to join forces with their Peerless Family to kill the Asura Adventurer Team, as long as they could hold on until Hecate opened the passage.

"President, the latest news is that Jing Wuming of the Wave Heart Adventurer Team has now taken people to the Asura Adventurer Team. It seems that Jing Wuming is going to take action." Di Yufeng looked at the new message sent by his subordinate and sneered.

Jing Wuming was a combat maniac. Since his debut in Cold Wind City, none of the experts he challenged had lasted more than five moves in his hands. He was recognized as the number one expert in Cold Wind City, and even their two major guilds were very helpless with Jing Wuming and could only pretend that he did not exist.

"Going to take action?" Lei Zhentian laughed when he heard this. "This is interesting. Let's go, we will go over and take a look now."
