Chapter 789 789. Settlement Phase
More than two hours.
Xia Feng finally walked out of the vast woods and came to a beach.
Ahead is the endless blue ocean, and above the ocean, a glittering blue treasure chest hangs above it.
Around the treasure chest, there is a complex formation made up of layers of spirit particle light streams, one circle after another, extending continuously outward.
Xia Feng estimated that with his strength, it would take at least half a day to break the formation by force.
“Sizzle——”
There was a sound of space breaking, and a crack suddenly appeared in the dark and cloudless sky. Amidst the blooming rays of light, a six-winged angel fell out of it and rushed straight to the sea.
It looked like it had just experienced a great battle and had run here with great difficulty. Its wings fluttered, creating gusts of bloody wind.
"Buzz!" He suddenly landed on the sea, and the waves on both sides surged straight up to form two high walls.
Separated by the sapphire treasure chest, the six-winged angel and the spade man on the distant beach stared at each other from afar.
Yufeller frowned slightly, he didn't expect that the Spade Man had arrived here first.
But there was nothing he could do about it. That crazy woman, Ms. Mi, caught up with him and insisted that he hand over the Cinder Sun Card. It took him a lot of effort to temporarily trap Ms. Mi in the angel cage.
As a result, I was a little late.
Fortunately, it was only the Spade Man who arrived at the same time as him.
This mysterious man who likes to be mysterious is only at the first level of the realm. Even if he has some strange methods, there is no need to worry.
At least he is much easier to deal with than the other seven.
Xia Feng stood in the distance and subconsciously glanced at the map icon.
On the map, the flashing red dot in the unsinkable sea coincides with this place.
Does this mean that Ufel is the Red King?
This made Xia Feng confused and he always felt that something was not right.
Yu Feile also looked at Xia Feng with some doubts, as if he was thinking about something. Finally, he nodded and said calmly:
"Since you have come here, why don't you join forces with me to break the formation and split the profits equally."
Xia Feng smiled and said, "That's exactly what I meant."
Of course, he didn't believe this guy's nonsense, but it didn't matter. He would open the treasure chest first.
The two stood on the east and west sides of the treasure chest, each releasing spiritual pressure and penetrating into the formation.
In such a short time, unless one is a god-level genius, it would be more efficient to use spiritual pressure to brute force the formation rather than analyze its principles to break it.
However, Xia Feng discovered that what Yufil released was not spiritual pressure, but a more advanced realm of Taoism, and his speed of breaking the formation was dozens of times faster than his.
The layers of seals protecting the outer layer of the treasure chest burned rapidly like paper encountering candlelight.
Yu Feile glanced at the Spade Man's turtle-like speed of breaking the formation from afar, shook his head secretly, and disdain was hidden in his cold eyes.
It's really ridiculous that a guy who hasn't even comprehended the realm of Dao Mind dares to participate in the fight for the Sumeru Throne.
Yufeller pondered secretly, his eyes flashing with coldness. He really had no intention of sharing the profits with the Spade Man.
Nor will they do such foolish things as sharing the profits with the weak.
The law of the jungle is the truth of the world.
After the formation is broken and the primary resources are taken away, find an opportunity to get rid of this ant.
In this way, the first kill reward and the 8 prop cards in the primary airdrop are enough for him to quickly climb from the bottom to the upper middle position.
Afterwards, you can use the newly obtained 'Jin Yang Card' to search for the whereabouts of the Jin Yang Divine Realm.
Get the Jinyang Divine Realm!
With that thought in mind, Yufeller no longer paid any attention to the Spade Man. He walked slowly on the current, moving closer to the treasure chest.
And as the six wings flapped, holy light spread, and the speed of breaking the formation increased further.
Half an hour later, the sealed light stream outside the treasure chest rapidly dissipated until only three cubic meters of space remained.
It would take about another minute or so to successfully remove the seal.
Xia Feng narrowed his black pupils slightly. He naturally understood that once the seal was lifted, it would probably be the time of his death.
Yuphiel would definitely take action against him.
However, Xia Feng was not panicked. Instead, he waited quietly and counted down silently in his heart.
[Red King's exposure time remaining: 9 seconds. 8 seconds.]
【321】
The flowing clouds, the sea breeze blowing on the face, the unbridled flow of light, the six wings waving from Yuphiler, and Xia Feng's robe rising from behind were all completely still!
The entire Xumi world entered a state of time suspension at this moment.
Even if two powerful saints were fighting somewhere, the energy impact of their fight would stop.
[The Red King exposure phase ends, and the first round of settlement begins——]
Xia Feng's eyes went dark.
The next moment, he appeared on a cylindrical platform.
In the dim light, eight other tall pillars appeared in a circle around the front.
In the center of the nine pillars, a dark red symbol lights up and slowly rotates clockwise.
When Xia Feng lowered his head to observe his condition, his heels were facing forward, and the short square pillar rose from the hole until it was level with his waist.
Similar to a tablet computer, data and information about him appear on the vertical column.
【Seats: 9】
[Possessing 9 ember stones]
[Owned Item Cards: Special Black King Item Card*1 (Not Active), Level 0 Emberstone Multiplier Card*4 (Active)]
[First round of settlement in progress——]
First kill: None
[Hunting: None]
【.】
[Guess the Red King: None (Each player only has one guess. The earlier you guess, the more ember stones you will receive.)]
[As the Black King, you have an additional task to complete—you successfully complete one round of identity concealment and receive 20 ember stones!]
[Since you have 4 Emberstone Multiplier Cards, every 10 Emberstones you gain can be multiplied to gain 4 more Emberstones - Total: 8 extra Emberstones!]
【Settlement completed——】
[Currently Owned Ember Stones: 37]
According to the rules, for every additional round the Black King hides, the ember stones he can obtain during settlement will be doubled.
The first round has 20 beads, the second round has 40 beads, the third round has 80 beads, and so on.
This is also one of the reasons why all players want to catch the Black King as soon as possible. Otherwise, the resources that the Black King can obtain for free will become more terrifying as time goes by.
Looking at the 37 coins in his account, Xia Feng was in a good mood.
Although it is not too much, and it is not as much as the two mysterious bosses who have accumulated 50 pieces, it still feels great to get the ember stones for free.
As long as you survive until the later stages, you can get more for free!
【Tip: The settlement and exchange phase is divided into four sub-phases】
[1 Settlement → 2 Private Exchange → 3 Public Auction → Identify the Red King]
[The mall is open and private redemption is now starting. You have one minute to redeem the prop card. The mall will close in one minute.]
[First round exchange - store prices increased by 300%]
[Level 0·Ember Land Exploration Card·Price 3]
[Level 0·Active Exposure Card·Price 3]
[Level 0·Emberstone Multiplier Card·Price 15]
Seeing the 300% price increase, Xia Feng's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.
Although there is a hint at the beginning of the game that the price of prop cards will become more expensive as the rounds go on.
But this time it’s three times more expensive, which is too scary.
After all, the original Emberstone Multiplier Card only cost 5 Emberstones to buy, but now it costs 15, which is more exciting than stock trading.
