Chapter 1159: Black Crystal
That staff’s golden radiance was sparkling as a skull was right at the top of it. The skull had three ma.s.sive gems embedded on it. It was the Grip of Darkness that he obtained from Tyrone.
“This…”
The Grip of Darkness was both golden and had gems on it so it looked extraordinarily lavish. Such a design was bound to capture the attention of everyone.
“Hehe!” w.a.n.g Yu chuckled as he showed the attributes of the Grip of Darkness.
“This… is an Ancient equipment?”
Looking at the attributes, everyone was stunned before quickly turning to Spring Halo to say, “F*ck!”
It wasn’t as if the Quan Zhen Sect had never seen Ancient equipment before. However, this was the first time everyone saw a weapon that nitpicked a job to this extent.
No, nitpick a person!
While it was true that this plaything was a Shaman’s weapon, it was specifically meant for a Shaman like Spring Halo who knew summoning skills. If any other Shaman obtained this plaything, they would only be able to use it like a normal pole.
It could be considered that this staff was tailored-made for Spring Halo.
One must know that Spring Halo’s current broken staff was from Beginners’ Village. Who knew that Spring Halo hadn’t changed his weapon since the very beginning but managed to get one G.o.d-grade weapon at the very end.
At that moment, everyone was incredibly envious.
Vainglory hugged onto w.a.n.g Yu’s thigh as he pleaded, “Uncle Bull, you cannot be so biased. I also want a tailor-made G.o.d-grade equipment… By giving Spring Dog a G.o.d-grade weapon, he will have more reasons to bully me in the future.”
“Indeed, indeed… My staff is only Obsidian…” Ming Du complained when he saw the golden staff.
Boson and Crotch Lord couldn’t help but chip in too, “I want too! Me too!”
w.a.n.g Yu, “…”
d.a.m.n! What kind of people are they?! It made sense if others were envious but Boson, Crotch Lord and Vainglory all had real Ancient equipment with them. Ming Du’s Obsidian staff was even more frightening after having its attributes boosted by Ming Du. So what are they even complaining about?!
…
However, w.a.n.g Yu was most concerned about something else. Initially, he thought Spring Halo would be the most excited about this staff but his expressions were not what was expected. He remained silent as his expression was complicated and he almost looked like he wanted to cry.
Initially, w.a.n.g Yu thought that Spring Halo was too emotional and touched that he almost teared up so he felt slightly bad before smiling at him. He handed Spring Halo the staff and said, “Brother Spring, you don’t have to be this emotional. You can repay me with some small tokens of appreciation… Is there really a need to cry?”
“Emotional your head!!” Hearing w.a.n.g Yu’s words, Spring Halo rolled his eyes at everyone before extending his arms, “Hand me the two skill books and you can go ahead and sell the staff at the auction market.”
“What?”
When Spring Halo rejected this staff, everyone was taken aback as they asked, “Brother Spring, this plaything is perfect for you and you don’t want it?”
Ming Du added fuel to the fire as he commented, “Brother Spring, don’t tell me your wife isn’t giving you enough pocket money to spend? Don’t worry, we brothers will lend you some money. If you really cannot manage, you can even pay by installments… Right, Old Bull?”
“That’s true…” w.a.n.g Yu scratched his head, “I’m not in any need of money too! Brother Spring, you can just take and use it for yourself.”
“No no no…” Spring Halo stared at the staff in w.a.n.g Yu’s hands as he waved his hands, “I appreciate Brother Bull and everyone’s kindness but this staff is really not suitable for me.”
“Not suitable?”
This was a shocking comment. Even a fool would be able to tell that this staff was tailored-made for Spring Halo. Even if it was trashy, it was still better than the staff Spring Halo currently had so how could this be not suitable?
“En!” Spring Halo nodded his head as he took out his inferior staff helplessly. He casually displayed the attributes of his staff.

Item Description: An ordinary-looking staff possesses mysterious power.
“F*ck!!”
When everyone saw Spring Halo’s staff, they almost spat out blood.
Rattan staff… Isn’t this given from the very beginning when one entered the game? Spring Halo’s staff had one more prefix to it.
Looking at Spring Halo’s staff, w.a.n.g Yu was in disbelief as he asked, “Which means that your summoning skill is tagged to your weapon…”
“Yes.” Spring Halo sighed as he said, “This is a reward for one of the hidden quest in Beginners’ Village. I upgraded it using skill stone and then used the skill books to add the a.s.similation skill which is why it can rise by 20 levels… In the past, it is just a level one staff.”
“Wow!” w.a.n.g Yu replied, “The system really knows how to play with us, eh?”
Who would have thought a Shaman’s greatest job skill was actually tagged to a beginner’s weapon? This was not something anyone would have expected.
If Spring Halo chose to equip the Grip of Darkness, it would mean giving up on his summoning skill. Without his summoning skill, what was the point of his Grip of Darkness?
It was no wonder Spring Halo would be this conflicted… This was a heartbreaking choice to make.
However, his decision to give up on the Grip of Darkness was right.
Spring Halo’s Demons of War were only level two but already had such tremendous fighting power. Moreover, this skill’s highest level was three and could even a.s.similate all summoning skills. With the boost of the Book of Seal as well, its peak condition was indeed a little too overpowering. Fixing it on a beginner’s staff was considered restraining its power.
“So what do we do? I doubt this plaything can fetch a good price outside too.” w.a.n.g Yu sized up the Grip of Darkness as he felt equally conflicted.
Selling it for a low price didn’t seem appropriate because it was still an Ancient grade weapon. However, it probably cannot fetch a high price because the number of Shamans was getting lesser and this plaything wasn’t useful for ordinary Shamans.
Just when w.a.n.g Yu was contemplating on what he was going to do with this staff, Fearless suddenly asked Spring Halo, “The staff that you’re using only has that one skill?”
“En!” Spring Halo nodded, “The Book of Seal is merely a secondary weapon effect.”
“That is good!” Fearless smiled, “All you need now is a Black Crystal!”
“Black Crystal? Oh yes! Why didn’t I think about that?”
Hearing Fearless’ words, Spring Halo slapped his own thigh and cried out ecstatically as he came forward to give Fearless a big hug.
Fearless pushed Spring Halo away and scolded him, “Scram, scram, scram… Don’t be disgusting.”
A confused w.a.n.g Yu asked, “Black Crystal? What is that?”
