Samsara Online

Many times people believed that if they had more money things would be different. However, the reality was very different from the thoughts and ideas that people had in their minds.

Undoubtedly, having more money would increase the quality of life and worries would greatly decrease. But if there was one thing that Xie Feng learned over time, it was that in reality, day-to-day life did not change as much as one thought; expenses naturally increased as more money was in your’s pockets.

Xie Feng, who had just spent nearly four hundred million gold coins, or four hundred million Chinese yuan, in less than five minutes, felt he had received some kind of illumination about money.

"This was a good transaction."

Number Ten’s words brought Xie Feng back to the real world. Looking at the cloaked person, Xie Feng noticed that he was about to leave so he hurriedly called out.

"Wait a moment!"

"Em?" Number Ten, who was about to leave after finishing a good trade, stopped for a moment and looked in the direction of the masked young man.

Although Xie Feng could not see Number Ten’s face let alone know what kind of expression he was making, he could somehow notice two eyes watching them as they were hidden in the darkness of the cloak. After thinking for a moment, Xie Feng slowly said:

"To be honest, right now my team and I are on a quest. We were teleported here after going through a portal."

"And? What does that have to do with me, human? Don’t waste my time!" Number Ten seemed really impatient to leave, which gave Xie Feng to understand that this unknown person really cherished time.

However, if you considered it carefully, you could easily understand the reason why Number Ten valued his time so much. After all, time was something that could not be bought with money. It did not matter whether one was rich or poor, it did not matter whether a person had in his hands the power to lead an army of millions of men to war; time was absolute and every living being had a time limit.

From the first moment we began to breathe, we also began to die slowly but unknowingly.

Knowing this, Xie Feng did not delay any longer and explained: "It is like this.... Since you are in this ice world, you must know something right? I was wondering if you could give me some information about this place."

The reason Xie Feng asked this was because when he and the rest had just arrived at this place, the first thing Xie Feng did besides quickly inspecting the surroundings for possible enemies was to try to look for a map about the place on the forum by typing in the name of this frozen world. Unfortunately, there was absolutely nothing there so he and the others were completely at a loss not knowing what to do.

"Twenty million gold coins." Number Ten declared in a hoarse voice.

Xie Feng had a complex expression on his face. It would be a lie to say that he didn’t expect something like this since for some reason unknown to him, Number Ten seemed to treasure money more than the time; which was truly a strange contradiction.

Although he felt that twenty million was too high a price, he didn’t have too many options to choose in front of him. The system’s mission explained absolutely nothing; it only said that they had to free the elemental pet that was imprisoned. Right in front of his eyes was a world of snow and ice that stretched who knows where far and wide, how could Xie Feng and the rest know which direction to go without any guidance? That was just plain stupid.

Without saying a word, Xie Feng took out the price indicated by Number Ten and the money in his inventory was once again reduced. Out of four hundred million, he only had approximately thirty million left....

Having received the money, Number Ten nodded silently and turned to leave. This greatly confused Xie Feng, for a moment he even thought that this cloaked person was trying to flee without keeping his word. However, his thoughts were proven wrong when the hoarse voice of the stranger rang in everyone’s ears.

"Walk north. Just walk in a straight line without straying off course. You should reach a river after several kilometers.... From there it will depend on whether or not you are lucky with your own choices." Number Ten’s voice was soon carried away by the strong currents of freezing wind and his silhouette disappeared in the mist formed by the snow falling from the sky with no apparent control.

Eh? Is that all? Xie Feng was stupefied.

For God’s sake! That guy had taken twenty million in exchange for giving a little guidance! Such an amount of money was something that very few people in the whole world could earn after a lifetime of effort and sacrifice!

Xie Feng’s expression suddenly changed as he looked over his head and saw several red figures silently rising. His health bar began to drop very slowly, for every second that passed five health points were drained; this cancelled the automatic health regeneration that every player had by default at the beginning of the game as the system identified that Xie Feng was in combat.

Without saying a word and momentarily forgetting the previous matter, Xie Feng turned around and as he quickly approached the group of five people he urged, "Hurry up and put on these coats! The weather seems to have become wilder and our lives are in real danger!"

The faces of Xie Yao and the rest was also serious. Even without Xie Feng saying anything they too noticed what was happening as their health bars had slowly but surely started to drop. Without saying a word, the five of them took the exotic looking coats and put them on.

The change was practically immediately noticeable.

Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue, who had been shivering nonstop ever since they set foot in this place due to the extremely low temperatures, suddenly felt their body temperatures return to normal as soon as they covered themselves with the coat Xie Feng had handed them a moment ago. Their pale faces and purple lips also recovered at astonishing speeds and only one or two minutes later they had returned to normal; seductive red lips capable of pulling any man’s soul out of his body just by looking at them.

"This... What is this?" Xiao Luo couldn’t help but ask in wonder at the obvious changes. Even the air entering his lungs seemed to be warm and not freezing like the air he was breathing in just moments ago!

"These coats I gave you are called Burning Yeti Pelt Coat. Apparently they were made from the pelt of an extinct beast so they are extremely rare." Xie Feng slowly began to explain the function of the coat.

Because Number Ten had only shown his items to him, only Xie Feng knew how special the coats they was wearing at the moment were.

After listening to Xie Feng’s explanation and inspecting the coat, everyone finally understood the reason why their bodies had become so warm after wearing the Burning Yeti pelt.

"To think that I’m currently wearing something worth twenty million..." Xiao Luo muttered as he caressed the coat’s pelt. Out of everyone present, only he came from a normal family so he never thought that a small coat would actually be so expensive.

Hu Chen rolled his eyes and said, "Idiot, the silver grade daggers that Xie Feng gave you earlier are probably worth twice as much as that coat!"

"What!?"

"""""Hahahaha!"""""

Everyone laughed out loud at the shocked face Xiao Luo made when he learned the true value of the knife he had been swinging back and forth constantly.

The weather in this place seemed extremely wild. Sometimes it would become so cold that the snow falling from the sky would freeze into small ice droplets and sometimes it would become slightly warmer which would cause small pieces of newly formed ice to slowly begin to disintegrate into a water droplet that would silently disappear as it mixed with the white snow.

However, if there was one thing that was certain, it was that to survive these temperatures, you had to possess a fairly high water resistance or else the consequences would be to become an ice statue.

Since snow and ice was water but in different forms, water resistance also naturally increased resistance to the low temperatures caused by such an environment. The same was true for extremely warm places. If a player or NPC approached an erupting volcano, the heat alone could cause death. However, with high enough fire resistance, the terrifying temperature could be ignored to some degree.

"Damn it, how much further will we have to go?" Yue Kai couldn’t help but complain as he brushed away a handful of snow that had accumulated on top of his head.

The six of them had been walking north for over an hour without a break, which was a challenge in itself since their feet were buried in the snow and they had to struggle to take another step forward. Not only that, Xie Feng and the rest also had to be very careful because they had previously encountered unstable ice areas which almost resulted in Hu Chen’s death.

It really was a world of ice and snow.... Xie Feng did not understand the reason why this place was called ’World of Snow and Rocks’.
