Chapter 572 - 100% Completion Rate
Inside the quiet private lounge, Shi Feng impatiently opened the thick and heavy Skill Book .
The moment Shi Feng flipped to the first page of the book, the sound of a system notification rang out by his ears . 
System: Do you wish to bind and learn this Skill Book? Reminder: Skill Book cannot be traded once bound . 
Shi Feng immediately chose to bind the Skill Book to himself . 
In the past, many players had bound a Taboo Skill to themselves without knowing the difficulty of the Taboo Skill they were about to learn, afraid that the Taboo Skill would suddenly grow legs and run away .  However, such a rash decision had filled many players, who had obtained high-tiered Taboo Skills, with deep regret . 
However, the Taboo Skill Shi Feng had right now was only Tier 2 .  Even if he failed to learn it now, he could try again once he became a Tier 2 class .  He would not waste this valuable Taboo Skill . 
After binding the Skill Book, the contents of the book finally appeared . 
Shi Feng promptly began studying one word at a time . 
Inside the Skill Book, other than some texts and pictorial introduction, there was a holographic video depicting the use of Instant Strike, which allowed players to grasp the techniques required to activate the Skill quickly . 
Taboo Skills in God’s Domain were similar to the spells used by magical classes in which they were very strict about their use . 
When magical classes cast a spell, incantations and hand gestures were of the utmost importance, particularly when tracing runes .  Only when these actions reached a certain Completion Rate could magical classes display great power . 
Taboo Skills were the same .  These Skills relied heavily on the accuracy and fluency of the player’s footwork, body movements, and attack patterns .  Even the slightest mistake could result in a failure to activate the Taboo Skill .  Compared to casting spells, players were required to have far more delicate control over their own bodies .  They needed a clear understanding of each and every motion that was involved . 
Without realizing it, more than an hour had passed .  Currently, Shi Feng was only halfway through the Skill Book .  Any ordinary person would have long since begun to practice the Taboo Skil .  However, Shi Feng was not in a hurry as he examined each page carefully . 
After more than three hours, Shi Feng’s heart suddenly sunk, and he frowned at the gray book .
“Skill Completion Rate must reach 95% .  .  .  Moreover, I’ll also need to absorb 100 Thunder Crystals from Thunder Beast Kings .  Isn’t this joke going a little too far?” A bitter laugh escaped Shi Feng’s lips as he gazed at the Instant Strike Skill Book on the table . 
Although he had known that a Tier 1 class could not easily learn a Tier 2 Taboo Skill, he had not expected the difficulty to be so high . 
Shi Feng had learned a few Taboo Skills in the past, so he was quite knowledgeable on the topic . 
Tier 1 Taboo Skills normally required players to achieve a 90% Completion Rate .  To ordinary players, this alone would prevent them from ever learning a Tier 1 Taboo Skill .  Even experts would require long periods of bitter training to achieve such a high Completion Rate .  Not to mention, there were usually other conditions that needed to be fulfilled as well . 
Tier 2 Taboo Skills normally required a Completion Rate of 93% . 
Only at Tier 3 would a Taboo Skill require a 95% Completion Rate . 
                            
Yet, Instant Strike, as a Tier 2 Taboo Skill, required Shi Feng to achieve a 95% Completion Rate .  
However, this was still not the largest challenge . 
The point that had left Shi Feng truly speechless was the 100 Thunder Crystals that he needed to obtain through killing Thunder Beast Kings . 
Shi Feng was very familiar with Thunder Beast Kings .  These monsters inhabited a location not far from a Level 50, 100-man large-scale Team Dungeon .  Thunder Beast Kings’ fur was extremely valuable; it was a rare material that was required to produce equipment with the Lightning Resistance Attribute .  The monster’s meat was also a must-try delicacy .  If cooked properly, it could become a gourmet meal that nobody could resist after a single taste . 
Just a single piece of the Thunder Beast King’s meat could sell for 3 Gold . 
Hence, in the past, many players had tried to grind the Thunder Beast Kings to earn money . 
However, a player had to be strong enough as Thunder Beast Kings could rival Tier 3 classes of the same Level . Even the weakest Thunder Beast King was a High Lord, while the majority of them were Great Lords . Even a large Guild had to pay an unimaginable price if they wanted to kill a Field Great Lord, not to mention independent players .
Meanwhile, Thunder Crystals were treasures that the Thunder Beast Kings hid within their bodies .  However, the drop-rate was not 100% . 
Instant Strike required 100 Thunder Crystals .  Even if Shi Feng sold off Zero Wing, he could not purchase so many Thunder Crystals . 
Shi Feng was also only Level 32 at the moment .  He was still a fair distance from reaching Level 50 . 
The difficulty of learning Instant Strike could already rival a Tier 3 Taboo Skill .  The Skill was definitely at the peak of Tier 2 Taboo Skills . 
“Am I going to give up like this and complete my quest first?” Shi Feng muttered, feeling somewhat disappointed . 
The Epic Quest Darkness Descends was not easy .  It was especially true for the Dark Den .  It was a Demon’s nest .  There would definitely be plenty of extremely powerful monsters waiting for him .  If he could learn a Taboo Skill, it would undeniably increase his chances of completing the Epic Quest .  If he failed the quest, he would have to face the wrath of a Tier 4 Great Demon . 
With his current combat power, even a Tier 3 Demon could kill him easily and take over his body, much less a Tier 4 Great Demon .  That need only flick its wrist to turn him into ash and dust . 
When Shi Feng reached the final page of the Skill Book, he discovered that there was another a paragraph of text . 
If Skill Completion Rate reaches 100%, one can call forth Heavenly Thunder into one’s own body 100 times, stimulating the power of the Taboo Skill without needing the aid of the Thunder Crystals’ power . 
“Shit! Skill Completion Rate of 100%? Are you kidding me?” Originally, Shi Feng had thought that he still had a trace of hope .  After reading the Completion Rate requirement, however, he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood . 
Even his past self had never achieved a 100% Completion Rate on any Skill . 
Rumor had it that only Tier 5 Taboo Skills required a 100% Completion Rate .  However, how many people in God’s Domain were actually capable of learning a Tier 5 Taboo Skill?
“Forget it .  I should just head to the Dark Den for now . ” For the moment, Shi Feng gave up on learning Instant Strike . 
This Tier 2 Taboo Skill was most definitely a prank from the Black Wizard Glynne . 
Shi Feng then stored the Instant Strike Skill Book in his bag .  He traveled to the Bank and retrieved some tools and magic scrolls before activating the Tier 4 Position Teleportation Scroll, teleporting to the Dark Den . 
Suddenly, Shi Feng transformed into a streak of white light that pierced the spatial crack that had appeared . 
As a Demon’s nest, the Dark Den was a carefully hidden location .  Even if the armies of various kingdoms and empires tried to annihilate the Demons, they would only find minions .  The true Great Demons nurtured their underlings in their nests in secret .  Hence, the various kingdoms and empires throughout the continent of God’s Domain had been helpless against Demons all this time . 
At this moment, inside a dark cave, a spatial crack suddenly appeared near the cave’s ceiling .  In the next moment, a streak of light fell through the portal and landed heavily, creating a deep crater . 
“This Position Teleportation Scroll is a huge scam . ” Shi Feng frowned as he surveyed his surroundings .
Shi Feng suddenly realized that he was surrounded by Demonkins .  The Position Teleportation Scroll had dropped him right in the middle of a Demonkin army . 
[Demonkin] (Common Monster)
Level 40
HP 10,000/10,000
Shi Feng’s sudden appearance immediately attracted the attention of many Demonkins .  The Demonkins turned to Shi Feng, one after another, their pitch-black eyes containing endless malice .  Their gazes alone were enough to instill terror Not to mention, their violent killing intent also took form, developing into a faint blood mist . 
Shi Feng had seen this blood mist before .  If players were caught within its range, it would significantly dull their five senses . 
In God’s Domain, aside from having keen skills, one required powerful five senses to be considered an expert . 
However, now that Shi Feng was trapped deep within the blood mist, he could no longer rely on his keen senses .
