Chen Tian walked on the path of the world. The map for the anniversary event was larger than the map of an ordinary world. The map on Chen Tian's screen was divided into more than ten regions. Chen Tian looked at the place names on it.
He instantly saw the location of the Han Xue Yuan (Frozen Snow Plains). Chen Tian said indifferently, "Let's go there and have a look! There should be some gains."
Chen Tian flicked his left hand, and the map interface instantly disappeared. Chen Tian headed towards the Han Xue Yuan. He naturally had his own plans for going there.
Meanwhile, at the resurrection point, the players who had been defeated by Chen Tian were slowly reviving. They had not used their fast resurrection chances. It was only the first day of the event, and using them now would be a great loss.
Soon, Yin Ze's figure appeared. Without any further action, he left the resurrection point. At the same time, he became somewhat interested in that player named De En Ai Li Ya.
What race was that person, and what class?
"I want to report him, ah! Report that elf for cheating!"
"Me too, my points, my points!"
"Ah! You guys are still lucky. We were instantly killed by that elemental swordsman with one move. It was too terrifying, with the lightning element's bonus."
The six people killed by Chen Tian at the resurrection point, along with the group of mages, started complaining.
"Impossible, why isn't the report successful? How is this possible? I don't believe a level thirty player can have two races, and a Spellblade at that."
"The one you mentioned as Spellblade, he was clearly a ranger class when he fought us."
"Yin Ze, what about you?"
"Dual-wielding Assassin!"
"Heavens! What class is this guy? I've never heard of a player with three classes before."
"Forget it, let's report it to the officials. Let's see what the officials decide. I'm leaving now, I'm going to snatch some points."
…
Instantly, the players who revived at the resurrection point left the city. Chen Tian was unaware that this commotion during the anniversary event had caused a major incident.
Information about Chen Tian's class variations had all been leaked. Of course, if Chen Tian hadn't made this trip to Han Xue Yuan, his future days would have been difficult.
Han Xue Yuan was a snow-covered grassland, stretching as far as the eye could see. The entire grassland was frozen, like a mirror, clearly reflecting one's appearance and silhouette.
Boundless, Chen Tian looked at the white plain before him. The plain was only ice and snow; there was nothing else. Chen Tian walked calmly on the plain.
Han Xue Yuan, a level thirty-nine leveling area, was home to many monsters, such as Snow Monsters, Ice Monsters, and Giant Snow Apes.
Chen Tian looked at the ice on the ground, as if looking at himself in a mirror.
He slowly walked on the ice, and suddenly a sound made Chen Tian wary.
Cracks began to appear on the ice, and a group of snow-white, crystal-like snowmen appeared around Chen Tian.
Chen Tian's Divine Eye instantly displayed the monsters' information.
Snow Ice Man

Speed: 5000
Constitution: 5000
Element: 5000
Hardness: 4500

Skills: Cold Wind, Blizzard, Bite.
Chen Tian looked at their attributes. They were decent, fitting for common monsters. Chen Tian, in his elven form, instantly erupted in flames, a terrifying inferno burning.
Yet, on this ice plain, a patch of ice melted. It was extremely bizarre.
Chen Tian’s hands instantly hurled two fiery orbs, like the sun, towards the snowmen.
The snowmen collectively opened their mouths and continuously spat out terrifying snowflakes. Simultaneously, a chilling cold began to emanate into the surrounding air.
The terrifying snowflakes were like a blizzard in winter, and a dreadful cold swept through. If ordinary players were caught, they would enter a frozen state. Once the frozen state meter was full, players would suffer from the terrifying cold and lose health.
The fearsome cold was like a gale, the wind howled, and the heavens and earth froze.
Skill: Cold Wind.
Unfortunately, this move had no effect on Chen Tian. Chen Tian, with his Elemental Divine Body, was immune to the damage of ice and fire element skills.
Chen Tian watched the cold wind they spat out. The terrifying cold wind felt like being in the Arctic, with a strong sense of presence.
Chen Tian also unleashed his flames, instantly transforming into a sea of fire that rushed towards the snowmen.
In the Five Elements, fire countered ice, so Chen Tian chose fire elemental attacks.
A crimson sea of fire, covering the sky and earth, burned fiercely.
The snowmen, seeing the sea of fire, instantly inhaled deeply and exhaled, spitting out even more ferocious snowflakes and cold winds from their mouths. The terrifying cold wind and white snowflakes spewed from their mouths, rushing towards Chen Tian's sea of fire like a blizzard.
The cold wind blew, snowflakes danced, fierce and cold.
Skill: Blizzard
The terrifying blizzard directly collided with the sea of fire. Instantly, Chen Tian's sea of fire began to freeze.
Chen Tian's brow furrowed. The trait settings of these little monsters were quite interesting.
The flames were gradually covered and frozen by the blizzard, and the blizzard directly charged towards Chen Tian.
Although Chen Tian could be immune to ice elemental damage, he didn't want to turn into an ice sculpture. This skill carried the monster's traits, so he dared not face it head-on.
As the terrifying blizzard approached Chen Tian, he stomped his foot, and a massive ice wall instantly appeared before him.
The ice wall was made of ice blocks. The gigantic ice wall blocked Chen Tian, but the terrifying blizzard hitting it had no effect.
Ice elements colliding with ice elements would only cancel each other out. How could it break through the ice wall?
"Yahaha!"
Suddenly, the snowmen in the crowd cried out in panic and instantly burrowed beneath the ice plain.
Chen Tian hadn't reacted yet; he was a bit bewildered. What was going on? Did monsters run away?
Beneath Chen Tian's feet, below the ice plain, a massive figure slowly moved. Chen Tian did not notice.
But suddenly, the ice beneath Chen Tian's feet cracked. Before Chen Tian could react, he instantly fell through the ice plain.
A boundless world of ice-blue ice blocks. Chen Tian looked around and couldn't help but exclaim, "I didn't expect there to be another world beneath the ice plain. It seems the ice plain itself was just an illusion. The real world is the one beneath it!"
Due to his Elemental Divine Body, Chen Tian was unaffected even when in this ice world.
Chen Tian looked at the surrounding structures. The entire structure resembled an altar, as if for some kind of sacrifice.
A massive altar appeared before Chen Tian's eyes. A world made of ice-blue structures and ice blocks. A giant ice-blue castle loomed into view.
Instantly, an ice-blue figure lunged at Chen Tian. Chen Tian's intuition sensed something. Just as he was about to dodge, his entire body was drawn into the altar. The altar instantly glowed with a sapphire blue light.
Just like that, Chen Tian's figure disappeared into the altar, and then the entire ice world seemed to vanish.
When Chen Tian regained his senses, he found himself in a massive palace. A palace made of ice blocks, with crystal-like ice reflecting Chen Tian's appearance.
Chen Tian looked around, bewildered. "Where is this? Why am I here?"
"Ding! Do you accept the hidden class quest?"
A information interface slowly appeared before Chen Tian. Chen Tian became excited. A hidden class quest, after only a few days, he had triggered another one. Chen Tian would be a fool not to accept it.
He instantly clicked "Yes," and a quest panel appeared before his eyes.
"Slay the Frost Phoenix infected by demonic energy. Quest Rewards: Hidden Class: King of Ice and Snow, one exclusive skill upgrade card, ninety million experience, 300 attribute points."
"Frost Phoenix: Originally the guardian beast of Han Feng Yuan (Cold Wind Plains), it became corrupted and evil due to infection by other defiling powers. It was sealed in this palace by an ancient sage. Please, brave warrior, liberate the Frost Phoenix and restore Han Feng Yuan to its original state."
Chen Tian looked at the quest panel. It turned out to be a quest for the Hero race. However, as a Clear-Minded person, Chen Tian could accept quests freely without restrictions.
Chen Tian walked to the center of the palace and surveyed the entire structure. The quest indicated it was sealed within the palace, but he couldn't see any sign of it.
Chen Tian looked around and instantly noticed four ice pillars within the palace. These four pillars caught Chen Tian's attention. The reason was that in the center of each of these four pillars, there was a snowflake-shaped indentation.
Chen Tian approached the pillar and touched it. Simultaneously, an information panel appeared.
It read: "Collect four Ice Snow Seals and inlay them into the Four Snow Seal Pillars to unseal and release the Frost Phoenix."
Chen Tian looked at the information and then stopped paying attention. The meaning was simple: there were four snowflake seals in this palace. Collecting them would break the seal.
This was also why Chen Tian, being Clear-Minded, received the quest prompt. Ordinary players would not have this hint and would have to rely on their own ingenuity.
Chen Tian looked around. Apart from ice, it was all ice. A palace made of ice. How could he find them?
Looking at the surroundings, Chen Tian began to wander, constantly exploring the palace. As he walked through the palace, Chen Tian admired the scenery. It was quite beautiful. The ice blocks were as clear as crystal, and a cold aura emanated from them, giving it a unique feel.
Chen Tian looked around, and his intuition suddenly flickered. A white light flashed above Chen Tian's head.
Chen Tian was surprised. Did intuition have such a function? He had never known. Was it a hidden effect?
Chen Tian instantly looked up. Above him was a giant ice-blue lamp, emitting a white light that illuminated the entire palace.
And within the wick of the lamp, a snowflake seal appeared before Chen Tian's eyes. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Chen Tian looked at the snowflake's position. It was too well hidden!
Not to mention whether players could jump high enough to reach hundreds of meters, the lamp itself was something no player would ever suspect to hide something in.
Because there was only this one lamp in the entire palace, and the entire palace was illuminated by this single lamp.
Who would have thought it would be hidden in the light bulb? Chen Tian hesitated about whether to knock it down. After all, if the light bulb were destroyed, the light would be lost, and the entire palace would plunge into darkness, making it even harder to find things.
"Why did I forget? I'm in elven form now. What am I afraid of in the dark!"
Chen Tian slapped his head and instantly hurled a fireball towards the top. "Bang!" A huge explosion sounded. Chen Tian looked at the lamp above, which was still intact.
His flames had no effect whatsoever. He increased the power of his fireball, and an even larger fireball shot towards the ice lamp.
But the ice lamp remained unharmed. Chen Tian looked at the ice lamp made of surface ice and instantly began to think. A surge of flame appeared in his hands.
Pure blue flames instantly materialized. As the flames appeared, the ice blocks in the entire palace showed signs of melting. Countless water droplets and steam emerged.
"I refuse to believe that this divine fire, the Blue Heart Ice Flame, cannot bring you down."
"Go!"
In Chen Tian's hand, the Blue Heart Ice Flame transformed into a long spear. The pure blue spear was slowly thrown by Chen Tian.
*Crack!*
Instantly, the ice lamp was pierced by the pure blue flame spear, and a white light fell.
Chen Tian slowly caught it with both hands. It was a pure white snowflake seal, emitting a faint white glow.
At the same time, because Chen Tian had destroyed the ice lamp, the entire palace was instantly plunged into darkness.
Chen Tian snapped his fingers, and a flame instantly appeared on his fingertip. Chen Tian temporarily restored his vision.
"The Blue Heart Ice Flame can only be used once a day. With my current control over elemental energy, I can't exert its full power. Divine fire is truly terrifying."
Chen Tian sighed. The Blue Heart Ice Flame was a divine fire he had obtained as a reward earlier. In the game "Epoch of Time," divine fire was the supreme fire element flame for elemental elves.
One could imagine its power. The flame just now was only a tenth of the original flame. With Chen Tian's current control over elemental energy, he could not fully master the Blue Heart Ice Flame. He might need to reach the Monarch level to do so.
Chen Tian looked at the snowflake seal in his hand. The first seal was obtained. Then, following the light cast by the flame, he retraced his steps.
"Hmm! So there's another one here! I didn't notice it earlier."
Chen Tian looked at the floor before him. In a crack in the floor, due to the darkness, Chen Tian saw a white light. This snowflake seal was actually hidden in the floor.
Furthermore, because the ice was too transparent, Chen Tian's reflection covered the snowflake seal, which was why he hadn't found it.
If it weren't for the darkness, Chen Tian truly wouldn't have found it. But how could he retrieve it from within the floor?
The floor was made of ice, and ordinary flames could not damage it. What to do?
Chen Tian fell into thought. The Blue Heart Ice Flame had entered its cooldown period. Moreover, Chen Tian could only manage to use it once. Using it a second time was truly beyond his ability. Using divine fire once emptied his control over elemental energy.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been just a flame's glow. Elemental energy control also needed time to recover.
"Right, I remember I still have a saber. I wonder if it can be used. It should be, as it was also a reward from a Divine Monarch."
Chen Tian slowly took out his Versatile Orb. Instantly, the Versatile Orb transformed into a saber wreathed in flames. However, on this crimson flaming saber, there was a flame-marked imprint.
The flaming saber seemed to be made of fire, radiating heat.
It felt like being in a volcano, with a temperature that could melt everything. Chen Tian gripped it tightly with both hands.
This saber was the Fire Source Saber he had obtained earlier. This saber could only be equipped by elemental elves. Since the weapon was defined as a one-handed saber, it required both hands to wield, classifying it as a two-handed sword.
Chen Tian slowly raised both hands and brought them down. The massive flaming saber instantly plunged into the ground, and the flames around the saber continuously burned the surrounding floor.
Instantly, the collision of ice and fire began. Chen Tian strained with all his might to dig deeper. At first, the ice seemed unaffected, but gradually the saber began to penetrate the ground. Chen Tian was amazed, and the flames of the Fire Source Saber surged even more fiercely.
"Fire Source Strike! Break for me!"
Chen Tian also activated the weapon's inherent skill, Fire Source Strike, gathering all the flames of the Fire Source Saber onto the saber, unleashing a strike with more than double the flame power.
Chen Tian instantly concentrated all the flames on the tip of the Fire Source Saber. Instantly, the ground exploded, and the Fire Source Saber also shattered.
A golden-quality weapon had considerable durability. It was just that Chen Tian had resisted for too long, causing its durability to reach zero. However, Chen Tian didn't care. It was just a weapon, and he didn't like this saber in the first place.
Two-handed weapons were too cumbersome for him; he preferred lighter weapons.
Chen Tian looked at the ground before him. A pit more than ten meters deep had appeared. In the pit, a snowflake seal sparkled. Chen Tian picked it up.
"Second one is obtained. I wonder what method will be needed to find the remaining two. I should probably wait for my fire elemental control to recover a bit. Otherwise, my vision is too limited."
Chen Tian looked at the snowflake seal in his hand and sighed. He had to admit that the design was brilliant. Both exploration and adventure were integrated into the quest, and it also stimulated the player's desire for exploration.
However, Chen Tian had a feeling that this quest should only be triggered in the Adventurer mode. He hadn't expected to encounter it, so he felt no guilt.
Although he had mastery over all classes, Chen Tian did not know the attribute requirements for hidden classes. Therefore, he needed hidden class information to activate it. Chen Tian did not want to miss out on a hidden class.
Players in Adventurer mode leveled up by completing quests, exploring the world, and interacting. Their quests were usually difficult, as some quests were designed to be solved through riddles, mysteries, and brainpower.
Although players in Adventurer mode found quests difficult, the rewards for each quest were immense, though time-consuming. Players in this mode could spend hours on a single quest, or as little as ten minutes.
Unlike Chen Tian, who used brute force to collect items, typical adventurer players would purchase items to facilitate their quests.
