Chapter 1069 Collecting Materials

Hearing Shi Feng's question, Melancholic Smile's expression darkened slightly, and she felt somewhat ashamed.

"So far, I've only collected a little over half. We're still short 20 Beryl Wood and 12 Soul Nurturing Stones," Melancholic Smile reported honestly after thinking for a moment.

Shi Feng had instructed her to collect the materials long ago, even if it meant spending a certain amount.

But after so long, aside from the materials obtained from the Zero Wing Guild's large team dungeons, only a small portion of the materials had been collected from other places.

"It's fine, the remaining materials will probably be difficult to collect as well. I'll find a way to gather them. You can focus on making the solidified magic equipment," Shi Feng nodded.

He knew very well that the materials for the beast pen were hard to come by.

Even for a hundred-man Hard Mode dungeon, the drop rate was ridiculously low. Only Hell Mode would have a higher rate. If it hadn't been for the first clear last time, it would have been impossible to get so many materials. Being able to collect more than half of the materials was already considered good.

Moreover, the situation in God's Domain was different now.

The Level 40 era was not far away for the major guilds.

The major guilds would more or less investigate the matter of the beast pen. As long as they investigated carefully, they would naturally know some of the materials needed to build the beast pen, including the Beryl Wood and Soul Nurturing Stones. However, most of the materials couldn't be found just by investigating. Without seeing the design of the beast pen, it would be impossible to know.

Large team dungeons dropped a wide variety of rare materials, which could be used in many ways. Even if the materials dropped were for building a beast pen, the major guilds would assume they were used for other purposes.

It was just that Beryl Wood and Soul Nurturing Stones could be found in the library. It was no longer possible to buy them from the major guilds, so it was normal that they couldn't be collected.

However, Shi Feng was also very fortunate.

If he hadn't been able to participate in the Dark Arena competition this time, he would have really had a headache over the materials for the beast pen.

On the surface, the Dark Arena was a secret contest between the major world-class consortia, but in reality, it was an exchange where the major consortia collected various precious materials and items. Materials and weapons and equipment that couldn't be seen on the market could be found there.

Of course, to get these things, one had to go through team battles.

Because in the Dark Arena, the most valuable things were not credit points but precious materials and top-quality equipment from God's Domain. The major forces of God's Domain would definitely not sell these things normally, at most they would be willing to exchange them, but the price to pay would be extremely high. In the Dark Arena, the major forces of God's Domain had to take out materials of equivalent value in order to get the materials they wanted, and after the two sides had equal value, they would go through a bet.

The winner took all, and the loser lost everything.

However, a small portion of these bets would be given to the winning team. If the team didn't want it, the winning party could buy it with credit points.

This was why so many God's Domain forces wanted to join the Dark Arena in the previous life.

It not only built fame, but also brewed endless wealth and God's Domain resources.

But such a good thing was not something that anyone could join. The Dark Arena had its own circle. Ordinary large guilds in God's Domain would not play with you at all. Like Shi Feng in his previous life, he was clearly the president of a second-rate guild and could be considered a local tyrant, but he had to be brought into the Dark Arena by a high-level member of a first-rate guild, otherwise he would not be qualified to enter at all.

Shi Feng had been there more than ten times, but he had to say that the scene was really not a place that a second-rate guild could afford to play.

Not to mention legendary materials, even legendary items or large cities built by players would occasionally appear on the bets.

Although there were only ten-on-ten team battles in the Dark Arena, the outcome of a victory or defeat was no less than a war caused by tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people.

Beryl Wood and Soul Nurturing Stones were indeed precious, but they were just ordinary bets in the Dark Arena.

It was not difficult to collect them all.

After Shi Feng put the rare materials and Level 50 weapons and equipment in his bag into the trading firm's warehouse, Shi Feng took Fire Dance directly to the blacksmith shop.

Inside Seliora's blacksmith shop, Shi Feng directly handed all ten pieces of Magic Fire Gold to Seliora, and immediately a system notification sounded in his ear.

System: Congratulations to player for completing the quest 'Reforging Thousand Transformations'. Reward: 200 million experience points, 5 points of tenacity.

Suddenly, Shi Feng's experience points skyrocketed, rising to Level 39 42%, only 58% away from Level 40. 200 million experience points might be a lot for ordinary players, but it was very little for Shi Feng.

Not to mention that he needed double experience points to level up, just the experience points needed for Level 39 were terrifying, and it was impossible to level up with just a few hundred million experience points.

However, 5 points of tenacity was not a small gain. If he were to do a high-level quest to increase tenacity, he would have to do at least three or four to get 5 points of tenacity, which would take a lot of time.

"Now that the materials are complete, who is going to use this Thousand Transformations?" Seliora put away the Magic Fire Gold with satisfaction and looked at Shi Feng seriously.

"It's my companion," Shi Feng said, introducing Fire Dance to Seliora.

Since Thousand Transformations was going to be reforged, a forging grandmaster would naturally not blindly create a weapon, but would make the weapon suitable for the user.

Seliora glanced at Fire Dance, then looked at Shi Feng and said, "You have to think carefully. The weapon I'm reforging is not a dime-a-dozen Epic weapon, but a weapon that could possibly become a Legendary weapon. Are you really willing?"

Legendary weapons were something that even Tier 5 peak experts, let alone Tier 6 gods, would go crazy for.

Seliora couldn't believe that Shi Feng was so busy for the sake of a 'companion'.

"What's there to be unwilling about?" Shi Feng smiled.

Thousand Transformations was a dagger. Although swordsmen could also use daggers, daggers were not suitable for him. Fire Dance was Zero Wing's number one assassin, and Thousand Transformations could exert its best effect in her hands.

Hearing Shi Feng's words, Fire Dance's face showed both excitement and coyness, and she looked a little shy. Under the furnace fire in the blacksmith shop, her fair cheeks seemed to be dyed with a layer of red.

"You're really a blockhead! Fine, since you've decided." Seliora then turned her gaze to Fire Dance. "Come with me."

Fire Dance nodded silently and followed Seliora to a silver-white magic array.

"Just stand in the center of the magic array," Seliora instructed and began to write divine runes.

After Fire Dance stood in the center of the magic array, Seliora quickly wrote dozens of sections of golden divine runes. As Seliora flicked her jade finger, the golden divine runes surrounded Fire Dance and wrapped her up.

After preparing all this, Seliora took out the magic crystals that Shi Feng had prepared earlier and scattered them directly.

Suddenly, a hundred magic crystals floated in the air, like countless stars surrounding Thousand Transformations, which was placed in the furnace.

"Go!" Seliora took out ten more pieces of Magic Fire Gold and threw them into the furnace. The originally crimson flames instantly turned into golden flames.

Thousand Transformations, which even the Holy Sword Thunder Annihilation could not damage in the slightest, was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Until Thousand Transformations completely melted into several clusters of different colored liquids.

"凝! (Níng! - Solidify!)"

Seliora shouted in a low voice, and the area around the furnace was completely covered by a colorful magic array. A hundred magic crystals instantly turned into clusters of liquid and drilled into the liquid that Thousand Transformations had turned into.

Then, Seliora began to frantically write divine runes and incantations in mid-air. Sections of golden divine runes and purple incantations formed and flowed into the liquid in the furnace.

After writing for a full half an hour, Seliora finally finished writing, but her face was already extremely pale.

And the Thousand Transformations, which had turned into liquid, was condensed into shape by the divine runes and incantations covering it.

At this time, Seliora waved her jade hand, and Thousand Transformations flew directly out of the furnace and floated in mid-air, completely red and emitting a blazing light.

"Finally done." Seliora looked at the formed Thousand Transformations and couldn't help but reveal an excited smile.
