The stats of the Firmament Necklace caused Bing Cha and Ling Xue to drool. Then, they said that if there were any more Holy Equipment necklaces, they would be the ones to roll for it.
Of course, only two Holy Equipment had appeared so far. One was the one that killed the invincible fire dragon, and the other was the one that killed the powerful Elf King. I couldn't guarantee that such a top-tier equipment would appear again.
As soon as the first Sacred Weapon appeared, it immediately occupied the first place on the Equipment Heavenly List with an absolutely high score. Although the Heaven and Earth Sun and Moon Saber was a National Weapon, its evaluation score was only 25% of the Firmament Necklace's.
"Scholar, there's another Holy Equipment. Appraise it quickly. We're going to sleep!" Ling Yue urged.
I nodded and put the Moonlight Sword on the counter.
"Heavens!
It's another … "
This time, the NPC was incoherent. After asking for gold, sweat covered his forehead. Finally, the appraisal process was finished!
A ray of indigo light pierced through the roof of the appraisal office and into the sky. All the players outside must have seen it!
Ding ~!
System Announcement: A player has successfully appraised the Holy Equipment — Moonlight Ice Blade. The light of the Holy Equipment shines on the Spirit of Grief Continent!
… …
Haha!
Another announcement. This time, it was really eye-catching. When I reached Level 200 and equipped these two peerless Saint Equipment, I would basically be undefeatable in my current level!
Holding the Moonlight Ice Blade, I felt very happy. With this divine weapon, would the world not be at peace and the world not be united?
"Quick, quick, quick, let's see the stats!" the girls urged.
I sent the stats to the party channel. Instantly, it was like a heavy bomb had exploded. Everyone was speechless. An unparalleled holy artifact, it was just too overpowered — —

…
His mind went blank. His attack power had exploded!
It had actually reached 11200 points. He still remembered that Bing Lan's sword, the Dragon Slaying Sword, was ranked fourth in the Ten Great Heavenly Weapons, but its attack power was only 24500. This Moonlight Ice Blade had reached half of the Dragon Slaying Sword's attack power, which was already considered quite powerful. This meant that the Sacred Weapon was indeed an existence close to that of a Divine Weapon!
Maybe it was because Moonlight Ice Blade was too powerful, but the girls were a little speechless. "Scholar," Ling Yue said, "I'm sure you'll be able to defeat a mage in one hit if you use this sword, right?"
"That depends on what kind of mage it is."
I laughed. "Some mages are like loaches that can't be caught at all. The number one female mage of Korea, Phoenix, is such a person. Our Sword Fire Ghostburn is also pretty good. Sometimes, we can't even touch a mage like that. No matter how strong a weapon is, it's useless. It'll only add to our frustration …"
Ling Xue pursed her lips and laughed. "What about me? What about me?"
"You're my boss. How would I dare to fight you?" I laughed.
Ling Yue wasn't satisfied with my answer. She pouted her lips and didn't say anything.
"Let's go offline?
It's time to sleep! "
"Mn. Good night. Tomorrow, after you go online, prepare to register. The third battleground is about to open, and the MVP of the battleground will be able to level up. This is something we can't ignore!"
"Mn. Okay!"
And so, Ling Xue and Ling Yue went offline. Qin Yun and Bing Cha also went to do their own things. I appraised the Flaming Dragon Shield and the Ice Dragon God Ring. Without a doubt, these were two very powerful pieces of equipment. The Flaming Dragon Shield had super high defense, and the Ice Dragon God Ring had an Ice Dragon Protection skill. It wasn't invincible, but it could absorb a large amount of damage. In fact, it wasn't much different from being invincible.

… …
The four pieces of equipment I appraised were all top-tier. My next task was to rush to Level 200!
I went to the Scholar's Little Store again and bought quite a few normal Flame Gems. I took them all out and went to the territory to find Ai Lan. This beautiful NPC girl was already a Master Armorsmith. Adding on my Luck and my closeness with NPCs, the success rate was very, very high.
In the end, after more than half an hour, all the Flame Gems from Rank 1 to Rank 8 were produced. There was also a Rank 9 Flame Gem that dropped from a boss. I was only missing a Rank 10 Flame Gem.
But for now, let's see if the Rank 11 gems from the quest reward could be refined into Rank 12 ones!
I put the two Rank 11 Flame Gems into the fusion window and looked at the success rate. Holy shit, it's only a pitiful 5%. Isn't the failure rate a little too high?
Damn, I'm betting on luck!
I pressed the fusion button and heard a heart-breaking sound. The two gems shattered at the same time!
Holy shit!
These were Rank 11 Flame Gems, good stuff that could be sold for millions of RMB!
For a moment, the gambler's ferocity was aroused. Again!
The quest reward was 5 gems, so I still had one more chance to fuse!
Reality proved that life was all about fighting. After another adventure, a melodious bell rang. The Lucky Aura and the Contraceptive Aura complemented each other. Success!
Now I was only 10 levels away from Rank 1 to Rank 12 gems!
I took out the Moonlight Ice Blade. After binding it with a drop of blood, I put all the Rank 9 Flame Gems on it!
Ding Ding Dang Dang!
Ai Lan knocked on the Moonlight Ice Blade and successfully embedded it. The Moonlight Ice Blade's already abnormal attack power was increased by another 1800. It could be said that it was like adding wings to a tiger!
Hehehe!
Today was really a happy day. The harvest was too great and I finished one of the things in my heart. Once I reached Level 200, the Fiery Soul Sword's mission would be completed.
I looked at the time. It was already early morning. Forget it, I went offline to sleep.
I took off my helmet and took a deep breath. I drank a cup of hot water and went outside. There was a light under the door of Summer's room. She was still awake, so I went to knock on the door.
"Creak!"
The door opened and Summer stuck her head in the gap. She smiled and said, "Big brother Scholar, you're not asleep yet?"
"Yeah, go to bed early. Since you're not feeling well, don't stay up late."
"Got it!"
After Summer closed the door, I continued to patrol the corridor. After making sure everyone was safely asleep, I looked at the bright moon and stars outside the window. I wondered how long it would take for Ling Xue and Ling Yue to return. As for Qin Yun, she should be returning to the workshop by now, right?
We had been separated for so long that we were about to become real online friends.
I went back to my room and fell asleep immediately.
… …
In the next two days, we registered to participate in the battlefield. As expected, we defeated Soul Battle Robes and became the third party to participate in the battlefield.
It was worth mentioning that after Soul Battle Robes lost their Shadow Follower, Seven-star Lamp and Little Butterfly's performance was quite low. On the other hand, Time Like Water's performance was very eye-catching, and Uncle Solitary Grave's army almost made it to the finals.
Dream of Returning to Snow Moon had participated as well, but they were disqualified due to the limited number of slots available. Both Yi of Ice and Fleeting Blossom grumpily declared that they would try again next week.
Uncle Lone Grave loved the national weapon, the Universe Sun Moon Blade. The next day, he came to trade with me and transferred me ten million renminbi. I split it evenly. Everyone in the workshop got around one million renminbi.
Summer went home, but she hadn't come back for the past few days. She wasn't online either, but she called me a few times and told me that she couldn't buy tickets during the Spring Festival. I was planning to drive to Xuzhou to pick her up after the battlefield was over.
… …
At noon on the third day, I was helping the Dragon Soul Kill quest. Everyone from Snow Moon was gathered at the center of the territory and preparing for the battle. Our opponent was France's main city, Falling Flame City. If there were no surprises, we would win!
Yesterday, I barely moved a muscle against Soul Battle Robes. The Level 198 thunderous warrior was incredibly powerful, and Ice Tea had become Snow Moon's number one tough girl. She had killed her way through the enemy's ranks like a fleeting horse, and it was no surprise that she was able to kill so many people that she could get out of their ranks. Today's battle against the French team would be no different. All I needed to do was to kill as many people as I could and become the MVP.
Ling 'er had yet to wake up. Contrary to my expectations, she had slept for a long time and was still in a deep sleep. However, it didn't matter as she would wake up sooner or later. It was probably because she was too tired after completing her second evolution.
I thought of Ling'er's new form again. She had turned from a loli into a mature woman, and her Illusion God equipment was shining brightly. She even had a pair of angel wings on her back. How cool would she look if I brought her out?
Mn, I eagerly awaited Ling'er's awakening. I would grind with her the moment she woke up!
… …
Clang!
My sword hit the Undead General's shoulder armor and dealt 120000 damage. Even more undead warriors were surrounding me, and a row of Level 205 elite Undead Banshees were casting curses at me from behind. A numbing sensation flowed through my nerves, but the Oracle Battle Armor glowed with holy light and negated some of the damage.
"Beauty Snow, hurry up! The main tank is about to die! Heal Scholar!" the Dragon Soul roared.
"Oh!"
Snow Seeing Grass blushed a little as she raised her scepter and fired several rays of light at me. My HP was restored by a third or so. Snow Seeing Grass was second only to Qin Yun in terms of DPS in Snow Moon. There was no doubt about that.
"Don't worry, I can tank!" I cast Holy Heal on myself and continued to kill.
"Dragon Soul, you four can't kill these mobs?"
I was a little surprised. Dragon Soul and the others were close to their fifth promotion, so why couldn't they handle a small map hall?
Dragon Soul smiled awkwardly. "Boss, do you think everyone has an abnormal magic resistance like you?
You saw it yourself, there are at least 20 Banshees behind us, and they're all Level 205 elite mobs. One hit can deal 5000 damage to me, and it's no wonder I'm one-shot. Also, Zi Yun 'er isn't here, and we don't have a powerful priest. How are we going to fight … "
"That's true!
What else do we need to kill to complete the quest after we kill these mobs? "
"We just need to kill one more Banshee boss. We'll be in time for the afternoon battle."
"Okay, let's kill them quickly!"
I raised my hand and used Rising Dragon Strike, engulfing a dozen or so Banshees behind us. Although I wasn't able to one-shot them, I was able to take out more than half of their HP.
I took out my Fire Dragon Bow and fired a dozen or so Thousand Mile Arrows. The Banshees screamed and fell into the cycle of reincarnation. A pile of shiny gold and equipment dropped.
"You guys pick them up, I'm going to see what the boss is doing."
I walked into the nearest hall with my sword in hand. I saw the boss Banshee raise her withered white bone claws and let out a sharp cry. Around her were four miniboss undead swordsman guards. They were all Level 205 Heaven Rank minibosses, and the Banshee was a Level 210 Immortal Rank boss. It was perfect for me to gain some experience.
I brazenly attacked. My Fire Dragon Bow broke through the air, Stun Shot!
Thud!
The boss howled in pain, and a stunned icon appeared above its head.
Charge!
I arrived next to the boss with a whoosh. The four undead swordsman guards also surrounded me. I smiled and activated Blade Storm!
In an instant, sharp blades pierced through the undead swordsman's body. The boss, who bore the brunt of the attack, couldn't escape either.
Sword Flame Ghostflame attacked from behind. I raised my staff and used Dark Star Rain!
Under my indiscriminate attacks, the four Minibosses were the first to fall to the ground. The Immortal Rank Boss, Banshee, used Dark Flame, but it only dealt less than 8000 damage to me. She was only Level 210, so the level gap between us wasn't that big, so I didn't need to fear her.
Dragon Soul brought Snow Sight Grass and Judging Sky over. The few of us attacked together, and in less than five minutes, we defeated the Banshee. She dropped two Ghost Equipments. Unfortunately, there weren't any Immortal Equipments. The two Ghost Equipments were robes, so I gave one to Ghostflame and the other to Snow Sight Grass. I acted as a volunteer and only got some experience. The quest had nothing to do with me.
"Alright, the quest is done. Prepare for battle!"
"Alright!" The Dragon Soul laughed. "Get ready to set off. Let's fight the French!"
