Chen Tingxuan sipped her drink, watching the commotion from the camping tent with a grin.
"Hehe, my husband's so diligent."
Takahashi Mitsuko scrolled through short videos, grinning mischievously:
"Hehe! The noise's pretty loud too."
"Hmph! It's been over an hour, I'm going to call them."
Tatsumaki pouted, huffing and puffing as she was about to lift the tent flap.
Fubuki quickly pulled Tornado back, quietly dissuading her.
"Sis, don't do that."
Nami put down her chips, a bright smile spreading across her face.
"Hehe, judging by the noise, it's almost over."
Sure enough, the entire cave fell silent.
...
Half an hour later.
Fang Xian took a bathtub from his storage ring, placed it on the ground, then took out a water tank filled with warm water and poured it into the bathtub.
Fang Xian stepped into the bathtub and began a comfortable soak.
...
Inside the Slaughter Dungeon.
Fang Xian used "Attribute Conversion" on Yukino, then took out a bunch of items for Tifa and Asuna.
[Ding! Tifa and Asuna consumed one each of the following: "Attribute Booster," "Universal Stone," "5x EXP Card," "Anti-Poison Pill," "Poison Pill," "Black Tortoise Meat," "White Tiger Meat," "Blood of the War God," "Golden Divine Gift," "Red Divine Gift," and "Golden Roc Skill Book," for a total of 48,000 items returned.]
He gave Tifa and Asuna 3,000 bottles of "Attribute Booster," and 10,000 each of "Blood of the War God," "Golden Divine Gift," and "Red Divine Gift."
He also took out extra "Divine Artifacts," giving each of them a set.
Tifa and Asuna, though born in the Great Thousand World, had never possessed so many top-tier items.
Especially the fact that Fang Xian gave them thousands upon thousands of them at once utterly astonished them.
And the fact that each of them received a set of "divine artifacts" moved them to tears.
Although the "divine artifacts" were currently only level 91, they were still far superior to their level 200 equipment.
They were even more certain that agreeing to become Fang Xian's contract partners was the wisest choice imaginable; Fang Xian
truly cherished each of his wives.
Fang Xian gently stroked Tifa and Asuna's heads, his eyes filled with affection.
"Use them all."
"Thank you, husband."
"Thank you, husband,"
they nestled into Fang Xian's arms, thanking him again.
Fang Xian smiled slightly, giving each of them a kiss before they finally released him.
He leaned back on the sofa, took out an "attribute-boosting potion," and began the tedious and monotonous path to becoming stronger.
Two days later.
Fang Xian consumed all 42,000 bottles of "Attribute Enhancement Potions."
The fifth day.
Fang Xian reached level 500, and distributed all his free attribute points evenly.
All six attributes were now at 68,378.
He looked at his stagnant experience points with a puzzled expression; it seemed he had reached a bottleneck.
Fang Xian took out his "Communication Phone" and began searching for the reason. Sure enough, level 500 was a watershed moment; to break through, he needed to obtain an "Advanced Divine Stone."
Only one "Advanced Divine Stone" was needed to unlock a new level.
However, the "Advanced Divine Stones" only exist in the "Divine Stone Mountain," which opens once a year. To break through, one must compete with all races at level 500 in the Great Thousand World.
Wu Lingtian of the Dragon Alliance entered the "Divine Stone Mountain" several times, each time with extremely dangerous risks, constantly teetering on the brink of death. He finally managed to obtain one last year, successfully advancing his level.
As for why he didn't acquire more "Advanced Divine Stones" and take them out of the "Divine Stone Mountain," it's because no matter what methods are used, the "Advanced Divine Stones" completely lose their effectiveness once they leave the "Divine Stone Mountain," becoming just ordinary stones.
After reading the explanation, Fang Xian finally understood why Wu Lingtian could become the leader of the Dragon Alliance at level 520. Breaking through level 500 is incredibly difficult for humans.
Humans are already the weakest beings in the Great Thousand World; competing with all races in the same place is truly a hellish level of difficulty.
In this light, Wu Lingtian's ability to break through level 500 is indeed quite remarkable.
Fang Xian checked the time; the next opening of "Divine Stone Mountain" wouldn't be until two months later.
Next, Fang Xian needed to prepare to obtain "Advanced Divine Stones."
Currently, he could still form contracts with 27 beauties. He needed to plan carefully to obtain more "Attribute Boosters."
After all, "Attribute Boosters" were the fastest way to become stronger.
As for the second point, he needed to find a way to obtain a level 500 "Divine Artifact."
If he were on Blue Star, this would be a trivial matter, since he had "Heaven-Mending Stones," which could directly upgrade "God-level Equipment" to "Divine Artifacts."
However, "Heaven-Mending Stones" had no effect on weapons above level 99, which was quite awkward.
Furthermore, "High-level Gems," "Refinement Stones," "Enhancement Gems," "High-level Enchantment Stones," and "Lucky Potions" cannot be used on equipment level 99 and above.
Fang Xian wasn't in a hurry for these items; they could all be bought on the market. The only problem was obtaining "Divine Artifacts."
Fang Xian continued researching information about "Divine Artifacts" and finally found a solution.
This is also related to "Divine Stone Mountain."
"Divine Stone Mountain" contains not only "Advanced Divine Stones" that can break through the level 500 bottleneck, but also
"Divine Artifact Stones" that can upgrade the levels of "Divine Artifacts" that don't belong to the Great Thousand World.
However, this is only theoretically possible, because successfully upgrading requires a large number of "Divine Artifact Stones."
Both "Divine Artifact Stones" and "Advanced Divine Stones" are extremely rare.
Furthermore, "Divine Artifact Stones" lose all their effects once they leave "Divine Stone Mountain," which is why no one has succeeded in acquiring them yet.
After all, "Divine Stone Mountain" is only open for one month, a very limited time.
Within it, one must not only face the inherent dangers of "Divine Stone Mountain" itself, but also all the level 500 powerhouses in the Great Thousand World.
Given the scarcity of resources, most people will prioritize obtaining the essential "Advanced Divine Stone."
As for "Divine Artifacts," there are naturally more ways to obtain them than "Advanced Divine Stones," so there's no need to waste so much time searching for large quantities of "Divine Artifact Stones."
However, Fang Xian is different. He has the "Divine-Level Multiplier Return" system, requiring only one "Advanced Divine Stone" and one "Divine Artifact Stone."
He absolutely had to go when "Divine Stone Mountain" opened this time, and he also needed to unlock the new levels of everyone's "Divine Artifacts."
Having made up his mind, Fang Xian slowly stood up and looked at the women.
"Time's up. It's time to return to the Dragon Alliance and participate in the assessment."
After saying that, he put away the "Concealing Cloth" and led the women back to the Dragon Alliance.
He was very much looking forward to seeing what expression Wu Lingtian would have next.
