Breaking the Five Elements Seal

A black token floated up from the pile of rubble.

Qin Feng hurriedly picked it up.

[C-rank quest token: activate this token to receive a C-rank quest with no time limit. Completing the quest will grant extremely generous rewards, as well as a Dark Gold Chest.]

"Oh!"

A Dark Gold Chest!

Qin Feng's eyes immediately lit up, and excitement stirred in his heart.

Even taking first place in his village's novice assessment would only earn him a Gold Chest.

Yet completing this C-rank quest would actually earn him a Dark Gold Chest, one tier higher!

Besides that, it offered other rewards, described as "extremely generous."

Clearly, those rewards would be anything but poor!

Holy shit!

Were C-rank quests really this awesome?

Now Qin Feng was thoroughly tempted.

Right, judging by the token's description, activating it would grant a C-rank quest with no time limit.

Since there was no time limit, why not activate it now?

There was no deadline anyway. Even if I couldn't complete it, I could set it aside for a while.

With that thought, he willed it to activate...

Hum!

The next second, the quest token shone with dazzling white light, then vanished into thin air.

A notification from the Heavenly Dao rang out in his mind.

"Announcement: novice Qin Feng has used a quest token for the first time and earned 1 reputation point!"

Haha!

Another reputation reward!

Awesome!

Qin Feng was delighted.

At that very moment, all the participants in Novice Village No. 911 heard the notification, leaving every one of them stunned.

Before they could think further, another notification came from the Heavenly Dao.

[Announcement: congratulations to Novice Village No. 911 for meeting the corresponding requirements and activating the quest channel.]

[Reminder: participants can enter the quest channel to view their unfinished quests.]

"Oh!"

The quest channel was activated!

At the thought, Qin Feng hurriedly opened the Heavenly Dao screen.

Sure enough, a quest channel option had appeared in the lower right corner of the screen.

With a thought, he opened the quest channel, which contained two more options.

One was for personal quests, and the other was for public quests.

He opened the public quest option. It was empty, with nothing inside.

Then he opened the personal quest option. Sure enough, a C-rank quest had appeared under unfinished quests.

[C-rank quest: break the Five Elements Seal.]

[Quest details: collect five King's Heart Cores, one each of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Then travel to Severed Dragon Slope, find the Five Elements Altar, and break the barrier seal around Novice Village No. 911.]

[Quest hint: once the barrier seal is broken, participants from Village No. 911 can enter a much vaster world, with more abundant resources, as well as more powerful ferocious beasts and races. The world will become even more exciting.]

[Quest hint: the worlds beyond the barriers of the 1,000 novice villages in Zone No. 1 are all part of the same greater world. The earlier a novice village enters the greater world, the more resources it can acquire.]

Holy shit!

So this was a map-unlocking quest!

Breaking the novice village's barrier seal would let us enter the greater world outside.

There would be ferocious beasts above level 10 outside, as well as those above level 20, and even level 30 and 40 beasts.

But the resources outside would also be extremely abundant!

And the quest hint made it very clear: whichever novice village entered the greater world first would have the advantage.

This quest was a must!

Unless a novice village didn't want to develop any further.

No wonder this quest had no time limit.

No time limit meant it would only end once the quest was completed!

I'm doing it!

This quest was one I had to do, too!

Qin Feng was incredibly excited.

He had just been worrying about where to go after sweeping through the level 10 ferocious beast area.

Now he had a direction.

That was the greater world outside.

At the same time, this also meant that the people from all one thousand novice villages would eventually meet in the greater world outside.

When that happened, all sorts of chaotic battles were sure to break out.

After all, the one thousand novice villages came from 197 countries and 33 regions around the globe.

Many countries were already full of conflict with one another.

Now that they had come to this bloody Slaughter World, without the constraints of morality or law, there was no guarantee that a world war would not break out.

Enough thinking about all that. I need to finish this quest quickly. The sooner I complete it, the better it will be for our Village No. 911!

Qin Feng muttered inwardly and hurriedly continued reading.

[Quest hint: the quest taker is advised to first head to the central part of Liluo Grassland, hunt down the Mammoth King, and obtain the Earth-Element King Core. The Mammoth King's coordinates are: Liluo Grassland 398,872.]

[Reminder: the Mammoth King is the weakest of the five kings and the easiest to hunt down. It is recommended to form a team of more than twenty level 10 powerhouses. This will bring the hunt's success rate to over 70%.]

Holy shit!

Seriously?

Even the weakest, the Mammoth King, required a team of twenty powerhouses at level 10 or above to hunt it down, and the success rate wasn't even 100%, but 70%.

That was terrifying!

If I went alone, I'd probably be wasting my time too!

He was not arrogant enough to think he could defeat twenty level 10 powerhouses by himself.

Qin Feng raised his head slightly and gazed into the distance ahead.

His current location was Liluo Grassland.

According to the coordinates provided by the quest, the Mammoth King was in the central part of Liluo Grassland, which should not be far from him.

He drew in a sharp breath.

Why not go take a look?

Even if I couldn't beat it, getting a sense of the situation first would still be good.
