103: The ripples brought by the A-grade talent awakening stone

Xu Shian wasn't lying; he truly intended to head to the main city as soon as possible.

One reason was the issue regarding the ratio between experience points and extra lifespan.

Although treating "extra lifespan" as a type of high-level currency didn't sound quite as grand.

But this stuff was just like paper money and gold; who wouldn't be happy to get more gold?

Furthermore, it was also about seizing the initiative!

As the universally acknowledged number one expert of the current era, Xu Shian knew that "Time" was currently the number one force on the table...

As long as Xu Shian prioritized heading to the main city he had his eye on, he believed those ambitious and aspiring factions would take the initiative to avoid him!

Therefore, being one step ahead was crucial!

That night, Xu Shian didn't do anything else; he went to bed early and rose early, preparing to level up properly the next day.

Early the next morning, Xu Shian bought breakfast and sat at the table, casually opening the guild page.

After looking at the content inside, Xu Shian felt that something was a bit off!

Over a hundred thousand chat logs in just one night?

Seeing that the chat was concentrated in the second half of the night, Xu Shian estimated that the otherworld mall module had released something incredible again!

After a rough glance, Xu Shian's breath hitched!

"A-Grade Talent Awakening Stone": After use, one can awaken a random A-Grade talent! If there are no empty talent slots, the new talent can be chosen to overwrite the player's existing talent!

Price: 300 years of extra lifespan...

This price was many Times more expensive than the price in the system mall on the day the server opened!

But it had to be said, it gave hope to the mediocre...

Moreover, the most discussed topic in the guild was the appearance of this A-Grade item; could the SSS-Grade be far behind?

Of course, as soon as this line of reasoning came out, it was criticized mercilessly!

Are you kidding? If an SSS-Grade one came out, looking at the current situation, could you even afford it?

Of course, don't talk nonsense about saving up lifespan to buy a talent...

If you only take in and never spend, can you still keep up with the grind?

And what if you were playing a Class, but rolled a mage talent? That would probably make you even more useless...

Xu Shian stared for a long Time; he truly didn't expect that even this kind of thing would be in the guild mall!

Now the people who couldn't join the guild were going to wail in despair again...

Bauhinia Pavilion was also rushing to level up, so they had delayed the matter of approaching Xu Shian to buy the guild.

After all, for them... extra lifespan seemed more important, and other matters could be put on hold!

But what happened last night had completely disrupted their plans and cast a shadow over the prospects of them purchasing the "Time" guild!

A guild like this, probably even a fool wouldn't sell it, right?

Furthermore, a super expert who achieved the server-first kill of a Black Iron BOSS, and the first clear of elite difficulty and hell difficulty Dungeons, didn't look like a fool in any way!

It wasn't just Bauhinia Pavilion!

At this moment, many factions that had fantasies about "Time" fell collectively silent.

Xu Shian had no interest in the A-Grade talent, especially since it was a random talent.

Having browsed the system mall before, Xu Shian had seen detailed introductions for many talents!

It could only be said that there was a huge chasm between different A-Grade talents!

If this were a specific talent, and if it looked like it had a game-breaking ability, it wouldn't be impossible to sell...

After all, one could offer a discount! But for a random one, forget it...

Xu Shian didn't wait long before the team members arrived one after another.

"Shian, have you looked at the guild group chat?"

"I have. With it being so lively, how could I not look?"

"Do you think there will be higher-grade talents for sale in the future?"

Xu Shian was taken aback, looking at An Xixi in surprise.

"No... as a player with an SS-Grade talent, why are you concerned about this? To be blunt, even if there were an SSS-Grade Talent Awakening Stone, what would you do if you rolled a mage talent? How would you go on living then?"

An Xixi paused; that made sense! What suits oneself is the best...

Then she became a bit dejected!

"That's true..."

Everyone understood the logic, but the temptation was simply too great!

Especially since ordinary players could only see seven items, wouldn't the other three items that refreshed daily be better things?

After all, this could be considered a special supply for the high-level players, right?

Official factions, major private family forces, such as the Jingan Sima Family and the Langya Wang Family, and even major foreign powers whose influence couldn't reach the East Dragon Empire, were all green with envy and stirring into action...

Xu Shian was aware of his current situation, but he didn't care much...

If I can't beat Jia Hu, can't I beat you guys?

Just kidding...

Besides, even with Jia Hu, we would have to clash now to know the strength of both sides.

Don't bring levels into this; it won't work!

Compared to yesterday, the team's strength today was clearly more formidable, and their coordination was becoming increasingly tacit.

Of course, most importantly, everyone was already very familiar with this Dungeon...

After all, this counted as a lot of practice in a short amount of Time.

The most intuitive feeling was that for one run of the hell difficulty Dungeon, with everyone riding scooters, they could clear the entire Dungeon in an hour and a half!

For Xu Shian, one run of the hell difficulty Dungeon was nearly 38,000 experience points...

The 100,000+ experience points he was missing were filled up after just three Dungeon runs...

"Your level has increased to level nine. Congratulations on obtaining five free stat points!"

After three Dungeon runs, Xu Shian had obtained quite a lot of equipment, but only one Golden Grade accessory for a Class could barely be worn...

Although it didn't quite match, it was better than having nothing!

"Steel Amulet"

"Golden Grade"

"Accessory"

"Constitution + 25"

"Use: Increases dual defense by 500 points, duration 20 seconds, cooldown 2 minutes!"

(Hit me if you can, hit me if you can...)

Reset after exiting the Dungeon.

"Ding, your level has exceeded level nine. After re-entering the Dungeon, you will not be able to obtain the 'extra lifespan treasure chest'. Do you confirm you want to enter?"

"No!"

Xu Shian cancelled his plan to enter the Dungeon, and everyone looked at each other in dismay!

In fact, when they killed the final BOSS of the Dungeon just now, Xu Shian had already reached level nine!

Fortunately, the Dungeon still gave him the "extra lifespan treasure chest", otherwise Xu Shian's head would have exploded...

Losing nearly fifty years of extra lifespan just like that... do you know how hard it is to earn this lifespan?

"Isn't it said that as long as a place gives experience points, it gives extra lifespan? Why did it change now?"

Xu Shian didn't really understand.

Li Zhiwei looked at the notice she had posted on the Novice Village bulletin board and said uncertainly.

"It seems to say that after the adjustment... that is, when it's close to 20:1, it's like this, right?"

Xu Shian frowned; he obviously couldn't wait that long!

"It seems that our fate to team up in the Novice Village has to end here..."

Xu Shian wasn't lying about this.

With Xu Shian's current strength, he could already completely clear out the wild monsters outside!

Of course, the gains from that were still a bit too low.

It was far less fast than running Dungeons!

Just right, at the foot of North Mountain, there was another level ten Dungeon, "Black Wind Mountain".

Xu Shian planned to go over right now and see what this Dungeon was all about...

Calculating the days, today was already June 12th; there weren't many days left until the specific ratio of experience points to extra lifespan was adjusted!

He headed towards the north of the village alone, killing everything he encountered on the road, like gnolls and such.

Looking at the 500,000 experience points needed to level up from nine to ten...

For leveling up, this bit of experience was a drop in the bucket, but even increasing the kill count a little bit was good!

Moreover, wasn't leveling up originally about accumulating bit by bit, gathering sand into a tower?
