[System notification: You have passed the second test. You may continue with the tests, or leave from here.]

The mist was gone, and the second channel showed up.

[Island No.2: There’s an Iron Chest on it that may contain things you need.]

An Iron Chest.

Xia Feng was tempted as he might find rare recipes in it.

Weighing the pros and cons, Xia Feng held himself back and continued the quest.

The third test was a maze in a cave that contained some traps.

With the help of the golden hint, Xia Feng passed the test easily.

There was also an Iron Chest on the third island that just showed up.

Besides, an Iron-Clawed Beast lived on the island too, which was another temptation to Xia Feng.

After all, the Iron-Clawed Beast was no longer dangerous to Xia Feng, and its blood could strengthen him.

Eventually, Xia Feng decided to continue the quest.

He was unwilling to abandon the chance to meet the mysterious merchant after passing three tests.

Xia Feng took the fourth test with Big Black.

The fourth test was a simple one that was about strength. A Rock-Armored Bear was on his path.

The Rock-Armored Bear was as strong as the Underground Demon. It had great physical strength too.

With the Lightning Crossbow and the Frost Blade, Xia Feng managed to wear the bear out to death.

During the battle, Big Black showed its ultimate trick again, and bit off the bear’s genitals.

Even Xia Feng was more or less scared to see the blood in the dog’s mouth and the brutality on its face.

The items that the bear dropped were similar to the Underground Demon’s, except that its blood was drinkable, and strengthened Xia Feng again.

After the Rock-Armored Bear was killed, the fog roiled and revealed a fourth path.

At the end of the path was a human-shaped creature wearing a black robe, staring at Xia Feng in silence.

[Mysterious Merchant: A merchant that wanders in the Misty Space. People call it the Mysterious Merchant because of its mysterious background. You may get a desirable treasure from it.]

[This Misty Creature is not hostile to you. You may try to approach it.]

After reading the note and the hint, Xia Feng approached the mysterious merchant.

“Mysterious merchant, greetings,” Xia Feng greeted politely.

“Brave adventurer, greetings,” the mysterious merchant replied in a friendly manner.

Xia Feng looked at the mysterious merchant’s face underneath the black veil, but he saw nothing but blackness.

Since he couldn’t see anything, Xia Feng stopped checking how the mysterious merchant looked, and cut to the chase.

“May I know what you’re selling, and what currency you accept?”

“I sell a lot of goods. You can pay with Source Crystals, or barter with me.”

While talking, the mysterious merchant waved his hand, and released five glittering balls before he continued, “Based on your current condition, I’ve picked five items that are the most suitable for you.”

Xia Feng got interested, and looked at each of the five balls.

[Recipe of Superior Wings of the Sky: This is a special spiritual device that allows you to fly to the sky.]

[Price: 500 Source Crystals (low-level), or any equivalent item.]

Xia Feng was already breathing heavily after seeing the first item.

It was needless to say how precious a piece of superior flying equipment could be.

Then, it was the second item.

[Recipe of Perfect Bronze Armor: This is a powerful spiritual armor. If you craft it and put it on, your ability to survive will be significantly enhanced.]

[Price: 3,000 Source Crystals (low-level), or any equivalent item.]

Lum-Dum… Lum-Dum…

After Xia Feng read the descriptions, his heart pounded as they were all too exciting.

Perfect armor was so tempting, but its price was also unimaginably high.

The third item.

[Certificate of the Mist: A certificate to create a real organization in the Misty Space. It’s an extremely rare and precious treasure.]

[Price: Unknown]

Xia Feng slightly frowned at the description of the third item. He didn’t know that he needed a certificate to found an organization here. Couldn’t he just found one?

Also, the price for that thing was unknown, which was rather perplexing for Xia Feng.

Leaving it alone for now, Xia Feng continued reading.

[Spiritual Endowment Fluid (one bottle): It’s a precious potion that may transform an ordinary creature into a spiritual body.]

[Price: 1,000 Source Crystals (low-level), or any equivalent item]

Reading the description of the Spiritual Endowment Fluid, Xia Feng was quite surprised at its price.

However, he already had its recipe, and it was unnecessary for him to exchange for it.

The last item.

[Junior Voyage Ship: You may travel on the sea with this boat.]

[Price: 5,000 Source Crystals (low-level), or any equivalent item]

Xia Feng felt dizzy after checking all the items. They were not just good stuff, but great stuff.

The Junior Voyage Ship, in particular, made Xia Feng drool.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t afford any of the items.

Oh, wait, there was still the mysterious Certificate of the Mist.

“Esteemed mysterious merchant, do you have other items available? Those are all too expensive for me,” asked Xia Feng rather awkwardly.

“No, you can afford one of them.” The mysterious merchant slightly shook its head.

“Do you mean…” Xia Feng looked at the third item, which was the Certificate of the Mist.

“Exactly.” The mysterious merchant nodded. “In fact, the Certificate of the Mist is the most precious one of the five items.”

“I can’t afford it.” Xia Feng furrowed his brows.

“You only need to pay one low-level Source Crystal,” said the mysterious merchant shockingly. “You have 30 seconds to consider. I’ll leave in 30 seconds whether you buy it or not.”

Hearing that, Xia Feng handed over a low-level Source Crystal to the mysterious merchant.

The mysterious merchant waved his robe, and the Source Crystal disappeared. So did all the items except the Certificate of the Mist.

“Brave warrior, I’m leaving, but we’ll meet again. Remember my codename: Xiu.”

The mysterious merchant’s words were still echoing in Xia Feng’s ears, but he had already vanished at some point, leaving Xia Feng alone in the place.

Looking at the glittering ball, Xia Feng extended his hand to it.

[System notification: Certificate of the Mist +1]

The Certificate of the Mist was the size of an adult’s hand and in the shape of a star.

One side of the Certificate of the Mist was a mysterious pattern, and what appeared to be mist was engraved on the other side.

[System notification: Certificate of the Mist detected. Would you like to found an organization?]
