A small stake for a big win, tense and thrilling!

Of course.

While choosing which layer to challenge, one must also consider the consequences of failure…

Fortunately, the system prompt also included the consequences of failure.

"If the challenge fails, all gains from the Dreamweaving Well will be reclaimed, and you will be unable to join the Dream Temple in the future…"

"If you do not wish to challenge, you may also leave directly."

Qin Feng thought about it. These consequences didn't seem unbearable.

His current gains from the Dreamweaving Well amounted to just some Epic-grade and Legendary equipment, and at most one ancient god stone slab. Even if reclaimed, the loss was completely acceptable.

But once successful…

How bountiful would the rewards be?

Incalculable!

As for being unable to join the Dream Temple after failure…

Qin Feng, an heir to the Trial Authority, did he still need to join the Dream Temple?

"A small stake for a big win, tense and thrilling!"

Qin Feng smiled.

If he didn't go for the big one, would he be doing himself justice?

And so…

Without hesitation, he spread his wings and flew swiftly towards the direction of the starry gate marked with the twentieth layer!

Just then…

A burst of icy light shimmered around Qin Feng's body, converging into an ice-blue orb on his left shoulder. It was none other than the Frost Elf who had become his follower under the Calamity Ancient God.

This Frost Elf had been given a name by Qin Feng: Ling Che.

And she seemed to quite like it…

Speaking of which, since this Frost Elf Ling Che had emerged, she hadn't spoken much to Qin Feng. She truly was very aloof…

Who would have thought she would suddenly appear on this occasion.

"Shadow, are you about to challenge the twentieth layer of the Dreamweaving Well?"

Ling Che's somewhat icy voice came through: "This challenge is very difficult, especially since you are an assassin. The spirit attribute is not your strong suit… Do you need me to explain some information?"

This surprised Qin Feng a little: "You know about this place?"

Since there was someone by his side who knew about this place, it was only natural to ask first!

In fact, before setting off, Qin Feng had asked Big Eyes about the 'Dreamweaving Well,' but Big Eyes was restricted from revealing relevant information.

Never in a million years would he have thought…

There was an expert by Qin Feng's side!

Frost Elf Ling Che directly sensed where Qin Feng was and knew part of the information about this place!

In fact, Qin Feng also had White Sprout with him.

But White Sprout was different from the Frost Elf…

That woman, after being turned into a dagger, found it difficult to perceive her surroundings. Although she could observe souls, her environmental perception was very weak. Right now, she probably didn't even know where Qin Feng was, only that Qin Feng had just taken down a few Diamond-level BOSSes…

But Ling Che, after all, belonged to the category of 'follower'!

Of course she could follow Qin Feng and sense any situation around him.

And so…

Based on Ling Che's explanation, Qin Feng quickly understood the situation here.

"So, there are entry condition restrictions for layers eleven to twenty."

"Layer eleven is free to enter."

"Layer twelve requires the challenger's civilization reincarnation time not to exceed nine years."

"Layer thirteen requires the challenger's civilization reincarnation time not to exceed eight years."

"And so on."

"Layer twenty requires the challenger's civilization reincarnation time not to exceed one year!"

If one arrived here in the second year of reincarnation, they could at most challenge the nineteenth layer and could not enter the twentieth layer.

And the trial of the twentieth layer for challengers also had very high requirements.

The most basic requirement was the spirit attribute value determined by level!

If the spirit attribute was too low, it would be impossible to succeed in the challenge…

At this moment, Ling Che's icy voice continued: "Based on the information I know, it can be calculated that you are currently level 40. Then the minimum spirit attribute for challenging the twentieth layer is eighty thousand points. If your spirit attribute is below eighty thousand, you won't even meet the threshold. Do you still want to challenge the twentieth layer?"

Eighty thousand points of spirit!

This did shock Qin Feng a bit.

This twentieth layer starry gate only allowed players within one year of reincarnation to challenge.

Whose spirit could reach this value?

Not to mention Qin Feng, an assassin, couldn't reach this spirit…

Even Qin Feng's Agility attribute hadn't reached this number!

But Qin Feng thought for a moment and asked a question: "What if one has resistance to spirit-type skill effects? Can that lower the threshold?"

Ling Che's ice-blue light flickered: "It can be reduced accordingly."

"Then it's fine."

Qin Feng smiled.

Having come all this way, he definitely had to challenge the twentieth layer. How could he be content otherwise?

He could get first place in the Reincarnation Challenges of other ancient god tombs. Wasn't it reasonable to directly clear the highest difficulty of the Dreamweaving Well challenge as well?

The key point was, after Ling Che's explanation, Qin Feng knew that his current self far exceeded the threshold for challenging the twentieth layer!

"My current spirit, balanced by Agility, is a little over 25,000 points. It's a pity too much time has passed; the 10,000 spirit borrowed from Sister Yuan has already expired…"

"But the Hallucination Favor skill allows me to increase my temporary spirit attribute by 50% when affected by spirit-type skills."

"This effect has no cooldown. As long as I'm affected by a spirit-type skill, it can persist…"

"Equivalent to me having 37,500 points of spirit."

"Most importantly, adding the 270% enhancement to spirit-type resistance is equivalent to 138,000 points of spirit attribute!"

Of course, what Ling Che mentioned was just the threshold. To pass the challenge, the more spirit, the better.

And Qin Feng still had a method.

He opened his equipment panel and swapped out all the equipment he was wearing that didn't have the 'Agility' attribute for a different set!

"Fortunately, I prepared a set of equipment focused on Agility in advance…"

After equipping these items, Qin Feng's combat power was significantly weakened, especially his output damage, which dropped by at least one-third, and he lost many special effect abilities…

But Qin Feng's base Agility attribute directly increased by nearly 5,000 points!

Including various bonuses, Qin Feng's Agility rose from 25,000 to 33,000, an increase of over 8,000.

Then, Agility balanced to spirit, bringing his spirit attribute to 33,000 as well…

Finally, Qin Feng's spirit-type resistance was already equivalent to a player with 182,100 points of spirit attribute!

"Speaking of which, the challenge requirements set by the Dream Illusion God are truly perverse…"

"Requiring 80,000 spirit at level 40, what would the requirement be at level 100?"

Qin Feng was a bit curious, so he asked Ling Che: "Out of curiosity, if the challenger's level is 100, what's the threshold for the twentieth layer?"

Ling Che said coldly: "According to the formula, the required spirit value is five hundred thousand."

"…"

Five hundred thousand attribute points. Qin Feng was convinced.

That was nearly three times stronger than his current self…

Of course, to put it another way, now at level 40, he had already reached a bit over one-third of the challenge requirement for level 100. That seemed extremely perverse, especially since the growth rate of equipment attributes in the late game would be higher than in the early game…

Ling Che continued: "Actually, this question is meaningless because no one can reach level 100 within one year."

Qin Feng thought, that was true.

This twentieth layer starry gate only allowed players within one year of reincarnation to enter…

This point alone barred far too many players.

"Then what are the rewards for this challenge?"

Qin Feng asked again.
