Reincarnation Of The Strongest Sword God

Chapter 675: Bountiful Loot Chapter 675 – Bountiful Loot After Shi Feng clicked to evolve the Abyssal Blade, the golden crystal in his hand suddenly atomized, transforming into a stream of golden mist that flowed into the Abyssal Blade.

Suddenly, the Abyssal Blade began to tremble and emit a flickering golden light.

A short moment later, the Abyssal Blade’s exterior also began to transform.

The silver sword darkened to pitch-black once more.

This time, however, eye-catching, bright red runes covered the sword’s blade.

This is an evolution?

Shi Feng was stunned.

He could clearly feel that the Abyssal Blade had changed massively.

His compatibility rate with the Magic Weapon had particularly increased.

It felt as if the weapon had been tailored for him.

However, unlike the Abyssal Blade’s usual commotion when it leveled up, the weapon had not changed beyond its appearance.

It was simply inconceivable.

Immediately, Shi Feng investigated the Abyssal Blade’s Attributes.

[Abyssal Blade] (One-handed Sword, Magic Weapon) Attack Power +655 All Attributes +45 Attack Speed +15 Ignore Levels +15 Attacks have: 50% chance to cause 200% damage.

25% chance to cause 300% damage.

Every attack increases damage by 2% to a maximum of 20%.

If wielder belongs to a Swordsman-related class, all Skill Levels +3.

Additional Skill 1: Phantom Kill (Tier 1).

Instantly creates a doppelganger under the wielder’s control.

Doppelganger has 80% of the wielder’s Attributes and all Skills.

The wielder can swap positions with the doppelganger at any time.

Each stack can be used to increase all Attributes by 2% and Attack Speed and Movement Speed by 1% for 10 seconds or to reduce the Cooldown of a skill by 3 seconds.

Maximum of 33 stacks of Death Aura.

Duration: 10 minutes Cooldown: 12 hours The master smith Olysses personally created the Abyssal Blade using the Black Dragon King’s fangs as material.

It is one of thirty-six Famed Swords, ranking 31st.

However, the Black Dragon King himself has cursed this sword.

Beyond the immense strength the blade offers, the wielder must face a Backlash after a certain amount of time.

However, after Jack had remodeled the Abyssal Blade with a Star Crystal, the strength of the Backlash has reduced greatly.

If the wielder is unable to suppress the Backlash, the wielder will receive the Black Dragon King’s curse, permanently reducing all Attributes by 50%.

Unable to be dropped.

Unable to be traded.

So this is what an evolution looks like.

Shi Feng finally understood what was going on.

The Abyssal Blade’s evolution had only provided minor improvements in terms of Attributes.

However, it had increased the Tiers of the Magic Weapon’s Additional Skills, upgrading them from Tier 0 to Tier 1 Skills.

It was similar to how players upgraded their Skills.

Only, while players required Skill Proficiency to upgrade their Skills, the Abyssal Blade required Mana Crystals.

Although the Additional Skills had not improved much after the evolution, the Skills would now be more effective on high-tiered monsters.

But this Mana Crystal was not easy to obtain.

It only drops from 100-man Hell Mode Team Dungeons, and its drop-rate is really low.

Shi Feng smiled bitterly.

It was not easy to raid 100-man Hell Mode Team Dungeons.

Not to mention, there was only a chance for a Mana Crystal to drop from each raid.

If one did not have the support of a powerful Guild, it was practically impossible to evolve their Magic Weapon.

Although the Abyssal Blade’s evolution had been an unexpected windfall for Shi Feng, the Frost Giant’s other loot was extremely bountiful as well.

Shi Feng spent over a dozen minutes organizing the loot.

In total, they had obtained 26 weapons and equipment pieces in this raid.

Aside from one Epic weapon, two Tier 1 Weapons, eight Dark-Gold Set pieces, and seven Dark-Gold Weapons and Equipment had dropped.

The remaining non-material items were Fine-Gold Set pieces.

The harvest this time really is massive.

Not only did an Epic item drop, but we also obtained two Tier 1 Weapons.

Shi Feng immediately began appraising the Epic item and Tier 1 Weapons.

Among the many weapons and equipment pieces that dropped, the Epic item definitely ranked first in terms of value.

The Tier 1 Weapons followed closely behind.

Aside from Epic Weapons, a Tier 1 Weapon was the best weapon available for a Tier 1 class.

Although Tier 1 Weapons were only slightly superior to Dark-Gold Weapons in terms of Attributes, they specifically catered to a single class.

Hence, these weapons allowed players to exert more of their strength in combat.

[Divine Frost Armor] (Plate Armor, Epic Rank) Level 30 – Level 90 Equipment Requirement: Strength 240, Agility 150 Attributes adjust according to the user’s level.

HP increased by 20%.

Reduces enemies’ Movement Speed within 15 yards by 40% each second.

After being slowed for 3 seconds, they will be frozen for 7 seconds.

Cooldown: 3 minutes [Tempest’s Breath] (Two-handed Saber, Tier 1 Weapon) Level 30 – Level 50 Class Requirement: Berserker Attack Power +748 (Currently Level 30) Strength +50, Agility +45, Endurance +40 Ignore 20% of the target’s Defense.

20% chance to trigger Fatal Blow, dealing 220% weapon damage to target and inflict Bleed, reducing target’s HP by 20% over 6 seconds.

[Windchaser] (Longbow, Tier 1 Weapon) Level 30 – Level 50 Class Requirement: Ranger Attack Power +708 (Currently Level 30) Strength +43, Agility +55, Endurance +42 Attack Speed +3 Accuracy +10% Ignore Levels +10 All Ranger Skills +1 Level Durability 140/140 Attacks have: 10% chance to trigger Wind’s Protection, increasing arrow speed by 60% and inflicting 170% weapon damage.

20% chance to trigger Quadruple Stars, transforming one arrow into four, each dealing 90% weapon damage.

When Shi Feng shared these weapons and equipment pieces’ statistics, the team forgot about their joy of claiming the First Clear of Hell Mode completely.

“This Epic Plate Armor is insane!

This is perfect for dealing with Agility-focused Bosses and players!

” Cola stared at the armor, mesmerized.

MT classes were not particularly agile.

With the Frost Domain, however, MTs could make up for this weakness, their strength reaching a whole new level.

“Now that you’ve seen the items for yourselves, let’s start the team auction,” Shi Feng announced.

Chapter 676: Famous Chapter 676 – Famous White River City: Before Heaven’s Burial’s popularity could reach its peak, White River City’s players had turned away from the Guild, leaving it in the cold.

Zero Wing was the only thing on everyone’s minds.

“As expected of the number one Guild of our city.

Zero Wing has actually claimed the First Clear of the Hell Mode Frost Prison so quickly.

” “That’s right.

I heard that, even until now, there has yet to be a single Guild that has successfully raided a 100-man Hell Mode Team Dungeon in the entire game.

Even those Super Guilds don’t have the courage to challenge them.

Yet, Zero Wing dared to, and they succeeded.

The strength of Zero Wing’s main force definitely ranks at the peak of God’s Domain.

It really makes you wonder just how the Guild has managed to find so many experts.

” “Find?

You have the wrong idea.

My friend is a member of Zero Wing’s main force, and I am very familiar with his strength.

When we started playing God’s Domain, he was even slightly weaker than I was.

However, ever since he joined Zero Wing, his strength has improved at a rate beyond the imagination.

At this point, he has even reached the Trial Tower’s fifth floor, becoming one of the few experts in White River City.

” “That’s not possible, right?

” “What’s not possible?

I’ve been regretting my decision to join my current Guild ever since.

Although we are both core members of our respective Guilds, I’m just a noob compared to my friend.

” As the sun began to drop below the horizon, the number of players who wandered into the Blue Moon Bar increased.

When speaking about Zero Wing, many could not help but sigh with regret.

Initially, Zero Wing had merely been a small and insignificant Guild.

Now, however, not only had it become White River City’s unquestioned overlord, but it had also become the focal point of God’s Domain.

Many Guild players wallowed in their regret.

Had they had only chosen to join Zero Wing, they would have enjoyed extraordinary status and fame by now.

Many Guilds’ elites even swore a silent oath to leave their current Guilds and join Zero Wing, even if they had to compensate their Guilds for the loss.

It was much better than remaining a nobody for the rest of their lives.

— Meanwhile, in Star-Moon City, the news of Zero Wing’s First Clear of a 100-man Hell Mode Team Dungeon caused a massive sensation to sweep through the city.

This sudden development had changed many players’, who had intended to join Heaven’s Burial, minds, opting to join Zero Wing instead.

“Just how did Zero Wing manage it?!

We’re talking about Hell Mode!

” Flame Blood utterly refused to believe the news.

Although their Guild had never dived into a 100-man Hell Mode Dungeon before, they had obtained a lot of information from Super Guilds.

Not only were the Dungeon’s monsters stronger in terms of Attributes, but the Final Boss was also capable of mental suppression.

When fighting the Final Boss, players could not display their usual strength.

Even a team of fifth-floor experts would lose as much as two-thirds of their strength.

Hence, the various Super Guilds had given up on raiding Hell Mode, focusing on raiding other 100-man Dungeons to earn Guild Reputation instead.

Yet, Zero Wing had done it… Moreover, Zero Wing’s achievement instantly shattered the momentum that Heaven’s Burial had gained after many difficulties.

“Sure enough, Black Flame is not as simple as he looks.

He has hidden his strength so deeply,” Daybreak Fog muttered as she absorbed the information with great interest.

The files she read were all about Black Flame.

“Although Heaven’s Burial’s information network is not as extensive those Super Guilds, it is still significantly more thorough than other first-rate Guilds.

However, we have close to no information regarding Black Flame’s background.

It is as if he just appeared out of thin air one day.

“However, we don’t have to pay too much attention to this matter right now.

We’ve already recruited quite a number of elite players.

Now, we need to improve everyone’s levels and equipment quickly and prepare to complete the task Guild Leader has assigned to us.

When Guild Leader completes his quest, Heaven’s Burial will become Star-Moon City’s overlord.

At that time, Zero Wing will no longer be an obstacle.

” No ordinary NPC City could compete with Star-Moon City.

In games, players competed with each other via resources.

Meanwhile, the resources available in God’s Domain’s various regions were limited.

As the capital city of a kingdom, Star-Moon City naturally offered more resources than any other city in the kingdom.

The City also offered a more convenient transportation system.

Visiting players from other kingdoms and empires who wished to explore Star-Moon Kingdom could only teleport to one city–Star-Moon City.

Only after teleporting to Star-Moon City could they teleport to the other cities in Star-Moon Kingdom.

This alone was enough to allow Star-Moon City to stand above its competitors in the kingdom.

Not to mention, Star-Moon City had far more high-level maps and Dungeons within its region.

— Aside from Star-Moon Kingdom, the various large Guilds across God’s Domain began to turn their attention to Zero Wing, particularly first-rate Guilds and Super Guilds.

“Zero Wing?

Isn’t that the upstart Guild that the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion failed to annihilate?

” “If it can claim the First Clear of a 100-man Hell Mode Dungeon, some major corporation must be funding it in secret.

It seems we’ll have to investigate.

” — Meanwhile, inside Twilight Echo’s Guild Residence… Despite being a veteran first-rate Guild, Twilight Echo was in a turmoil.

Initially, they had not particularly cared about Zero Wing.

After all, it was simply a farce Aqua Rose had concocted.

Now, however, the situation had changed.

The Zero Wing that Aqua Rose currently occupied had claimed the First Clear of a 100-man Hell Mode Team Dungeon.

Even Super Guilds lacked this achievement.

This went to show that Zero Wing’s strength was extraordinary.

At the very least, the standard of the Guild’s main force must rank at the very peak of God’s Domain.

However, nobody among Twilight Echo’ upper echelon believed that Black Flame was the one responsible for such a powerful team.

After all, before God’s Domain, nobody in the virtual gaming world had ever heard of him.

The only possibility was that Aqua Rose was responsible for the team’s creation.

“I told you that Aqua Rose possessed immense potential, yet you were adamant about chasing her out of Twilight Echo.

If Aqua Rose were still with us, given the Guild’s background, we would have become the next super-first-rate Guild by now.

Tell me, then.

What should we do now?

” a middle-aged man with a righteous air huffed angrily.

“Elder True Martial, there is no need to get so agitated.

We were left with no other choice.

After all, her parents made the decision.

It wouldn’t be right to meddle with their family affairs,” a lady nearing her forties assuaged.

“However, now that everyone has seen what that child is capable of, I believe that everyone present understands what this means.

This farce has gone on for long enough.

It’s time that we bring that child back to us.

” At the Twilight Echo’s Elder meeting, Brilliant Wargod was livid.

He had never expected Aqua Rose to be so capable.

She had actually managed to develop a small Guild into a large Guild that even Twilight Echo could not ignore.

Listening to the Elders’ intentions, he realized that he could never coerce Aqua Rose in the future.

“Guild Leader Glorious, what is your will?

” Elder True Martial asked coldly as he turned to Glorious Echo, who sat comfortably on the Guild Leader’s throne.

Back then, Glorious Echo had strongly advocated stripping Aqua Rose of her position as an Honorary Elder.

Now, however, Aqua Rose’s strength was clear for all to see.

Twilight Echo was not a one-man Guild.

If Glorious Echo continued to hinder Aqua Rose’s return to the Guild, he would make an enemy of every Elder in the Guild.

Glorious Echo, who had held his silence through the meeting, smiled and responded indifferently, “Since everyone has decided, I will not object.

However…” Chapter 677: Solomon’s Sword Chapter 677 – Solomon’s Sword Inside the Frost Prison, after Shi Feng announced the start of the auction, a heated competition began between every member of the team.

They even fought fiercely over the Dark Gold Set pieces, much less the Epic ranked Divine Frost Armor.

The bids continuously increased by 1,000 GCP increments.

Zero Wing’s GCP was not cheap.

Each point was roughly the equivalent of 30 Copper.

In other words, 1,000 GCPs were worth roughly 3 Gold.

To the majority of independent players, 3 Gold Coins was an astronomical price.

Normally, these players would only have several Silver Coins in their pockets, maybe 10 or 20 Silver if they were slightly stronger.

However, in the hands of Zero Wing’s main force members, that amount of money was practically nothing.

After a brief moment of bidding, the price for the Tier 1 Two-handed Saber, Tempest’s Breath, had reached 50,000 GCPs.

If converted to Coins, that would be 150 Gold.

However, the true value of a Tier 1 Weapon was far more than 150 Gold as it could last until Level 50.

It would only start to lose its value after players attained their Tier 2 class.

Meanwhile, among the Berserkers’ current weapons, Rampant Blade’s Bluefire Double-edged Sword was the strongest.

However, it was slightly weaker than the Tier 1 Tempest’s Breath.

Hence, the Berserkers desperately fought to outbid each other.

Some even sought to loan GCPs from their friends.

“Rampant, you lost out big time this time.

After spending nearly all of your GCPs on the Bluefire Double-edged Sword, you couldn’t compete for the Tempest’s Breath even if you wanted to,” Turtledove could not help but tease the Berserker as she smiled at the anxious Rampant Blade.

“What are you gloating for?

If not for Big Brother Cola and Boss Wumian having Tier 1 Sets, Guild Leader would not have given you the Divine Frost Armor.

” Rampant Blade rolled his eyes at the female Guardian Knight.

Although the effects of a complete Tier 1 Set Equipment were frightening, the Attributes on the Divine Frost Armor were simply too good.

It was only slightly inferior to a Tier 1 Set Equipment.

In terms of combat, the Divine Frost Armor might even be better.

Ignoring Rampant Blade’s words, Turtledove hugged the Divine Frost Armor to her chest, smiling gleefully.

Although she owed the Guild a large number of Contribution Points after obtaining the Frost Armor, with it, she could earn GCPs much faster than before.

Moreover, with the Frost Armor, her combat power instantly rose to the same level Cola and Ye Wumian, making her one of the top three MTs in the Guild.

While Turtledove joyfully celebrated her prize, Shadow Sword spent 85,000 GCPs to gain the Tempest’s Breath.

Minor Wind, one of the Five Demon Generals, purchased the Tier 1 Weapon, Windchaser, for 92,000 GCPs.

Both Shadow Sword and Minor Wind were Zero Wing’s core combatants.

Although they were not as strong as Fire Dance and Violet Cloud, they had still passed the fifth floor of the Trial Tower, making them both experts who had reached the sixth floor.

Now that they both had a Tier 1 Weapon, their combat power had improved significantly.

After the auction was over, seeing as it was relatively late in God’s Domain, everyone logged out to rest.

Only a few people, such as Shadow Sword and Minor Wind, continued to play.

They intended to test out their new weapons.

Hence, they all went to the Divine Colosseum to train.

Just as Shi Feng was about to leave the Frost Prison, the sound of a system notification suddenly reached his ears.

System: There is a strange image engraved on the Elemental Core left behind after the Frost Giant’s death.

Do you wish to investigate it?

“Strange image?

” Shi Feng turned to the massive, resplendent gemstone that he had previously ignored.

The blue gemstone was as tall as he was.

If not for the system notification, he would not have noticed the palm-sized image engraved on the gemstone’s exterior.

“Why haven’t I encounter this notification in the past?

” Shi Feng walked up to the gemstone and inspected the image carefully.

He discovered that it was an extraordinarily complex magic array.

It was, by far, one of the most complex magic arrays he had ever seen.

It was as intricate as an electronic instrument.

When Shi Feng touched the image, the Elemental Core suddenly began to shrink.

From the size of an adult human, the massive gemstone shrank to the size of a fist in the blink of an eye.

System: Quest “Solomon’s Treasure” activated.

Quest details: An immensely powerful magic array has been carved into the Elemental Core along with Solomon’s symbol.

You might gain an unexpected bounty if you take this Elemental Core to a Great Mage.

Quest rewards: Unknown.

“Is this a bonus quest for obtaining the First Clear of Hell Mode?

” Shi Feng involuntarily shuddered when he heard the name “Solomon.

” There were countless weapons in God’s Domain.

However, while Epic Weapons were exceedingly rare, Legendary Weapons were as rare as a phoenix’s feather.

Among the ten most famous Legendary Weapons in the past, one of them had been Solomon’s Sword.

Although Shi Feng did not know how Solomon’s Treasure and Solomon’s Sword were related, even the faintest of connections was amazing.

It was enough to make every melee class in God’s Domain mad with greed.

Legendary items were powerful enough to allow a person to challenge opponents of a higher tier.

The Ten Great Legendary Weapons, however, stood out from the crowd.

Shi Feng had heard many deeds involving the Ten Great Legendary Weapons in the past.

To put it in another way, not a single player in God’s Domain would ignore one of these weapons.

One of the most sensational occurrences had been a Tier 3 player’s provocation of a Tier 5 player.

In the end, the two fought each other with everything they had.

However, when everyone had believed that the Tier 3 player was finished, that Tier 3 player had actually managed to escape their opponent.

In God’s Domain, the difference between Tiers was massive.

A Tier 5 player could massacre a group of Tier 3 players effortlessly.

Hence, it was practically a miracle that the Tier 3 player had managed to escape.

The incident had shocked God’s Domain as that person had broken one of the game’s iron rules.

Afterward, that Tier 3 player reached Tier 4, and when he encountered the Tier 5 player again, he only took a few seconds to finish his opponent off.

After the incident, the various large Guilds investigated the mysterious player, hoping to find the cause for such an upheaval.

In the end, they discovered that the Tier 3 player’s weapon had been one of the Ten Great Legendary Weapons.

Afterward, that person went on to become a Tier 6 God-ranked player.

He had also been a member of the famous Midnight Tea Party, known as the Mage God Gaia.

Although Gaia had only begun playing God’s Domain during the middle-stage of the game, both his talent and luck were far beyond that of the ordinary person.

He quickly became a Tier 6 God-ranked player, becoming a massive headache for Super Guilds.

Now that he had a clue that could possibly lead towards one of the Ten Great Legendary Weapons, even Shi Feng was shocked senseless.

Although he currently had the Abyssal Blade, at the end of the day, a Magic Weapon was only a Magic Weapon.

It was significantly inferior to a Legendary Weapon, not to mention one of the Ten Great Legendary Weapons.

Such an item was almost a myth, even in God’s Domain.

Shi Feng carefully stored the Elemental Core and with trembling hands, took out a Return Scroll.

“Calm down!

Calm down!

” Shi Feng told himself repeatedly.

However, he could not keep his thoughts from wandering towards Solomon’s Sword.

“I should meet with Weissman for now.

” Although there were quite a number of Tier 3 Great Mages in White River City, there was only one Tier 4 Great Wizard–Weissman.

Shi Feng did not believe that ordinary Great Mages would know much about Solomon.

Only those old fellows who had lived for over a hundred years would have detailed information.

Ordinary players had no chance of gaining an audience with Weissman.

Fortunately, Shi Feng was a Count of White River City.

He was a true, major noble.

Even Weissman would not dismiss him casually.

Furthermore, the two were familiar with each other.

Chapter 678: Top of the World Chapter 678 – Top of the World As the sky darkened, the magic lamps lining the streets of White River City lit up, brightly illuminating the entire city.

Quite a number of Merchant players crowded the streets, purchasing equipment and materials.

At this time, many combat players were returning to the city after a day of hard work.

These combat players usually sold their unwanted materials as well as spent a portion of the day’s earnings on some delicacies and alcohol.

By now, everyone had already adapted to their new lives in the world of God’s Domain.

The players on the streets of White River City were currently chatting merrily with each other, the hot topics either relating to Zero Wing or the currently popular Stoneclaw Mountains.

After returning to the city, Shi Feng reverted his appearance to that of Ye Feng’s.

When he walked through the city streets, he immediately became the center of attention.

“Look, that guy’s a member of Zero Wing!

” “His equipment looks awesome!

He must be an elite member of Zero Wing at the very least.

It would be great if we could get him to carry us.

” “Zero Wing really is amazing.

Even a random member of the Guild is Level 30 and has such enviable equipment.

It’s a pity I failed to get through their test today.

I’ll definitely have another go at it in a few days.

” The six-winged emblem was something extremely familiar to the players of White River City.

Unfortunately, the number of players who could sport this six-winged emblem was quite low.

From time to time, female players would send flirtatious glances at Shi Feng, causing some male players to look at him with disdain.

“Tsk.

What’s so good about him?

Isn’t he just some lucky bastard basking in Zero Wing’s limelight?

If I got into Zero Wing, I’d definitely have much better achievements than him,” a Level 25 male Summoner snorted in discontentment.

“If you have the ability, you can go take Zero Wing’s test.

If you manage to become an elite member of Zero Wing, I’ll come fawn over you as well,” a beautiful short-haired woman said to the male Summoner, giggling.

“Only, I’m afraid you don’t have that ability.

” The crowd near the male Summoner broke into laughter.

Nowadays, Zero Wing was very famous.

Countless players were trying to join the Guild.

Plenty of elite members of other Guilds had also withdrawn from their Guilds to transfer to Zero Wing.

But despite so many players applying to Zero Wing, the Guild’s member count did not increase by much.

One could just imagine how difficult it was to enter the Guild.

Zero Wing’s entrance examination was rigorous and had very high requirements.

The Guild had always put quality before quantity.

However, anyone who passed the test would only be an ordinary Guild member.

Those who wished to become an elite member would have to accumulate a certain amount of GCPs to qualify for the elite test to become an elite member.

In short, Zero Wing’s requirements were far more stringent than other Guilds’.

Hence, it was incredibly difficult to become an elite member of Zero Wing.

Any person who managed to become an elite member of Zero Wing was already an expert in the eyes of ordinary players.

Shi Feng simply smiled at the gossiping of the crowd.

Shaking his head, he donned a Black Cloak and quickly made his way to the City Hall.

A female receptionist dressed in neat office attire came up to Shi Feng and asked, “Good day, sir.

How may I be of service to you today?

” “I wish to meet with Lord Weissman.

” Shi Feng showed his Count Emblem.

“Lord Count, please follow me.

” Upon seeing the Count Emblem, the receptionist immediately led Shi Feng to the inner sanctum of the building.

After waiting for several minutes, Shi Feng was then shown into Weissman’s office.

“Young man, what brings you to this old man today?

” Weissman asked warmly as he stroked his white beard.

“Lord Weissman, please take a look at this.

” Shi Feng retrieved the Elemental Core from his bag.

The instant Shi Feng took out the Elemental Core, Weissman squinted his eyes, a serious expression appearing on his face.

“Young man, you really are something.

” Weissman felt a little surprised as he carefully inspected the Elemental Core.

“Logically speaking, this thing should not exist in this world anymore, yet you’ve actually managed to obtain it.

Your luck truly is extraordinary.

It’s no wonder that little girl Sharlyn says that you have heaven-defying luck.

” “Lord Weissman, do you know what this item is?

” Shi Feng asked hurriedly.

Judging from Weissman’s reaction, he could tell that there was more to this item than met the eye.

After inspecting the magic array engraved on the Elemental Core, Weissman could only shake his head and say, “It is still too early for you to come into contact with this thing.

If you wish to challenge this, I advise you to do so only after you become stronger.

” “Lord Weissman, may I know how strong I need to be?

” Shi Feng asked.

“Reach Tier 3.

” Weissman immediately provided Shi Feng with a definite answer.

“Tier 3?!

” Shi Feng could not help his surprise.

“Is it really impossible for me right now?

” Although he knew that the quest would not be simple, he had not thought that the difficulty would be so excessive.

He was still a long way from obtaining his Tier 2 class, not to mention the Level 100 Tier 3 class.

In the past, even after a decade had passed, Tier 3 players were still considered peerless experts as the majority of the player population failed to attain their Tier 3 classes at all.

For Solomon’s Treasure to be a quest that required him to have a Tier 3 class to complete it, its difficulty was simply ridiculous.

However, this revelation also further convinced Shi Feng that Solomon’s Treasure might be somehow related to Solomon’s Sword.

“It’s not exactly impossible.

The problem is, with your current strength, you won’t be able to reach that place,” Weissman laughed.

“Won’t be able to reach?

” Shi Feng came to a realization.

He did not lack the strength to complete the quest but only the strength to arrive at the quest location.

“Lord Weissman, can you tell me where that place is?

” “The Top of the World, Mount Sogar.

” Weissman did not try to withhold the answer from Shi Feng.

On the contrary, he sincerely explained, “The magical array carved onto this Elemental Core is not only a map but also a key.

Meanwhile, the location indicated in the map is Mount Sogar.

Setting aside how far that place is from Star-Moon Kingdom, on your way there, you will have to pass through places with powerful monsters.

Having a Tier 3 class is already the minimum.

If you wish to arrive safely at Mount Sogar, you should reach my standard at the very least.

Hence, you had best give up on that place for now.

It won’t be too late to go there once your strength reaches a sufficient level.

You are still young.

What you have is time.

” “The Top of the World?

” Shi Feng smiled.

Shi Feng knew of this place.

Although he had never personally been to Mount Sogar before, its fame as the Top of the World was most likely known throughout God’s Domain.

And indeed, just like Weissman had said, a Tier 3 class would be no different from food to the monsters one would encounter on the way to Mount Sogar.

Even if he were still a Level 200 Tier 3 Sword King right now, he would barely manage to reach Mount Sogar.

He would also have to spend a long time traveling to get there as the teleportation point nearest to Mount Sogar was ten days away.

Moreover, that was assuming that he could continue running for ten days straight and did not encounter any powerful monsters throughout the entire journey.

Although he could shorten the travel time by using a Mount, even then, it would still take a long time.

However… Shi Feng had the Position Teleportation Scroll, a Tier 4 Scroll that allowed him to teleport to any location in God’s Domain, except for a few special spaces.

Mount Sogar was not one of these exceptions.

In other words, he could teleport there directly.

Shortly after, Shi Feng bade farewell to Weissman and immediately ran back to the Candlelight Trading Firm.

As its moniker suggested, Mount Sogar was the tallest location in the entire God’s Domain.

At the same time, it was also a domain that humans did not willingly enter, as a multitude of powerful monsters lived there.

Even the human empires were powerless against the monsters there.

In the past, there had been many players who had tried challenging that place.

Although Shi Feng could head to Mount Sogar right now, he still needed to make a lot of preparations.

After he returned to his forging room, he immediately contacted Melancholic Smile.

“Melancholic, send the top-ranking Alchemist and Engineer within the Trading Firm to my forging room, please.

” Chapter 679: The Weapon that Ended an Era Chapter 679 – The Weapon that Ended an Era Inside an Advanced Forging Room of the Candlelight Trading Firm: Under Melancholic Smile’s instructions, the Candlelight Trading Firm’s most skilled Alchemist and Engineer immediately made their way to Shi Feng’s forging room.

“Take a look at these for now, and tell me how confident you are at manufacturing these items,” Shi Feng said.

He then passed two separate designs to the Alchemist Nine Coasts and the Engineer Ocean Smile.

The two people hurriedly nodded in response, not daring to act sloppily at all before Shi Feng.

Nine Coasts was the only Intermediate Alchemist of the Candlelight Trading Firm, whereas Ocean Smile was the only Intermediate Engineer of the Trading Firm.

In the past, both these people had boasted great achievements and had managed to set foot into the realm of Masters.

Back then, even Shi Feng, the Guild Leader of a second-rate Guild, had to treat them with great respect.

Yet, now, these two people were very nervous while conversing with him.

There was no hint of the arrogance they usually displayed when dealing with other Lifestyle players within the Firm.

They were just like two obedient little kittens as they earnestly studied the designs Shi Feng had passed to them.

However, this reaction of theirs was unavoidable.

Black Flame was simply too preeminent.

In the entire Star-Moon Kingdom, not a single person did not know about Black Flame.

He was a great character standing at the peak of Star-Moon Kingdom.

But at this very moment, such a great character was actually standing right before them and was asking the both of them to perform a task for him.

How could they not get flustered?

After the two nervously studied the designs, surprise surfaced in their eyes.

The designs Shi Feng had passed to them were just too frightening.

“Guild Leader, with how complicated this alchemy array is, even I have only around a 10% certainty of manufacturing it.

If I can advance to an Advanced Alchemist, I might be able to raise the success rate to…20%?

” Nine Coasts said anxiously.

“What about you?

” Shi Feng turned to look at the Engineer, Ocean Smile.

Ocean Smile stuttered, “F-Five…percent…” “Five percent, is it?

” Shi Feng frowned slightly.

When Ocean Smile saw such a reaction from Shi Feng, he nearly collapsed on the spot.

After some pondering, Shi Feng still gritted his teeth and said, “Alright, then.

From now on, I’ll permit you two to use the Special Forging Rooms continuously, so focus all your attention on producing these items.

” The designs he had taken out were actually parts of the Magic Device Design that he had obtained from the Dark Shrine.

As the weapon that ended the era of Demons and Gods, the difficulty of manufacturing it was extraordinary.

Normally, even Master-level characters had low success rates in fabricating the components of the Magic Device, what more of individuals who were not Masters?

Meanwhile, he was responsible for producing the Magic Device’s core component.

However, with his current standard as an Intermediate Forger, manufacturing it was still beyond him.

“I need to raise my Proficiency.

” Shi Feng could not help but sigh as he looked at the design, which comprised over twenty pages.

“Sure enough, a Magic Device isn’t that easy to produce.

” However, without a Magic Device, he did not dare to travel to the Top of the World.

— The outer area of the Stoneclaw Mountains: In a forested valley surrounded by mountains, lights from Spells, sparks, and Light Stones were visible in the vicinity.

Ever since Stone Forest Town opened to the public, the Stoneclaw Mountains had become the hunting grounds of expert teams.

Even in the dead of night, the number of teams passionately grinding in the Regional Dungeon did not decrease in the slightest.

The various teams were grinding for Magic Crystals and equipment day in and day out.

Magic Crystal was the standard currency used at the Divine Colosseum.

Since the Stoneclaw Mountains was a Level 30 to Level 49 Regional Dungeon, the equipment that the monsters inside dropped naturally ranged between Level 30 to Level 45.

Moreover, the quality of the equipment dropped at the Stoneclaw Mountains was just slightly inferior to those dropped in large-scale Team Dungeons.

Only, the amount of equipment that a Boss inside the Stoneclaw Mountains dropped each time was very small.

Now that Zero Wing had claimed the fame of clearing a Level 30, 100-man Hell Mode Team Dungeon, there was no longer any point in Guilds competing over the First Clears of other Level 30, 100-man Team Dungeons.

Shifting their attention to competing over Team Dungeons that were over Level 30 was more beneficial.

After all, reaching Level 30 was only a small milestone for players, and Zero Wing had merely gained a little advantage from this achievement.

There were still milestones at Level 40 and Level 50.

Hundreds of Levels awaited them.

The competition over Level 30 large-scale Team Dungeons was just the beginning.

Meanwhile, the Stoneclaw Mountains was the best location for training and preparing to compete for the First Clears of future large-scale Team Dungeons.

Not only could they level up quickly at this place, but they could also gain a hefty amount of Magic Crystals.

Most importantly, they could obtain a lot of high-level equipment here in short order.

Setting aside the fact that Team Dungeons in the outside world had Cooldown times, which greatly restricted the production volume of top-tier equipment, players also took time to adjust when switching from one Team Dungeon to another.

Players would waste a lot of time when going through this transition.

However, Regional Dungeons were different.

These had no Cooldown time for entry.

As long as one had sufficient strength, they could come here to grind for Level 30 or above top-tier equipment at any time.

It was very efficient.

Guilds could build up a massive advantage for raiding 50-man and 100-man Team Dungeons in the future.

Precisely because of this reason, various large Guilds had frantically dispatched their members to the Stoneclaw Mountains.

“Boss, this Lord dropped something,” the Star Alliance Assassin responsible for picking up the loot said excitedly.

Meanwhile, the Lord lying beside this Assassin was a Level 35 Half-orc over three meters tall.

Scattered around this Half-orc were many Elite Half-orc and Special Elite Half-Orc corpses, their total number exceeding 100.

When Red Feather, who was resting underneath a large tree, heard the Assassin’s words, joy surfaced on his face.

“Bring it here and let me take a look at it,” Red Feather said hurriedly.

Although the Stoneclaw Mountains would drop plenty of Level 30 and above equipment, most of these were Level 30 Common Equipment.

“Boss, this is a Level 35 Fine-Gold longbow.

” The Assassin passed the weapon to Red Feather excitedly.

“It’s a really good bow.

It’s slightly better than a Level 30 Dark-Gold longbow.

Willow has lucked out this time.

As long as she reaches Level 35, she can immediately replace her current weapon,” Red Feather said enviously after appraising the Attributes of the longbow.

He and his team had been grinding in the Stoneclaw Mountains for quite some time now.

However, the loot of the Bosses they killed was far from ideal.

The majority of the Bosses dropped only Level 30 Secret-Silver and Fine-Gold Weapons and Equipment.

Very rarely would they drop Level 35 Fine-Gold Weapons and Equipment.

“However, we wasted a lot of time on this battle.

If not for the majority of our team’s weapons being Fine-Gold rank, fighting these monsters might even have been dangerous.

” Red Feather still felt somewhat fearful when he thought back to the battle just now.

The monsters of the Stoneclaw Mountains were generally stronger than the monsters found outside.

The Chieftains were only somewhat weaker than the Lords of the outside world.

The Lords here were even more powerful; in terms of combat power, they could rival even the High Lords of the outside world.

Only their HPs were at normal standards.

As for the Level 35 Lord ranked Half-orc their team faced just now, most of their melee weapons failed to even scratch the Lord.

Only Fine-Gold Weapons or above could cut through the tough skin of the Half-orc Lord and chip away at its combat power.

In fact, Red Feather’s team wasn’t the only one experiencing such headaches.

Any team that came to grind in the Stoneclaw Mountains found themselves facing similar problems.

Every battle in the Regional Dungeon would greatly exhaust a team.

Players who used Secret-Silver Weapons were even forced to use Whetstones to recover their weapon’s Durability after fighting just one battle.

Otherwise, their weapons were sure to break in the next engagement.

As a result, the teams in the Stoneclaw Mountains could not fight continuously over long periods of time.

“Boss Red, Elder Purple Eye’s team has encountered one Lord and six Chieftains.

They are in urgent need of backup right now.

” “Purple Eye’s team is too unlucky to have actually encountered so many monsters.

Everyone, follow me immediately.

” Shortly after Red Feather’s team began resting, Purple Eye, who was also one of the Star Alliance’s top combatants, sent a request for help.

Red Feather had no choice but to respond.

Even if the standard of Purple Eye’s team was very high, there was no way her 100-man team could take on the equivalent of one High Lord and six Lords of the outside world simultaneously.

Not to mention, there should also be plenty of Elite and Special Elite monsters.

However, the problem plaguing the various teams was actually making the Candlelight Trading Firm in Stone Forest Town a fortune.

Whether it was Whetstones or Advanced Whetstones, none of the Guilds had initially planned to purchase these items from the Candlelight Trading Firm.

However, the consumption of these items was simply too voracious.

Their own production was insufficient.

Hence, the Guilds had no choice but to purchase these items from the Candlelight Trading Firm.

Due to this reason, the entire Candlelight Trading Firm was extremely busy since several hundred Whetstones might sell at any given minute.

— Meanwhile, during the time the various Guilds were scrambling over the Stoneclaw Mountains, Shi Feng cooped himself up inside a Special Forging Room, frantically producing Intermediate Mana Armor Kits and continuously increasing his Forging Proficiency.

For four whole days, Shi Feng did not sleep or rest, spending all that time madly raising his Proficiency.

He only stopped when the sound of a system notification entered his ears.

Meanwhile, Shi Feng’s Level had also increased rapidly during this period.

At this moment, he had already reached Level 32.

His leveling speed simply left one speechless.

Chapter 680: Advanced Forger Chapter 680 – Advanced Forger System: Congratulations!

You are the first player to be promoted to an Advanced Forger.

Rewarding 10 Magical Gold and 20,000,000 EXP.

… The system notification repeated three times.

Upon the arrival of this system notification, Shi Feng finally stopped producing Intermediate Mana Armor Kits.

He had required a total of 24,000 Proficiency Points to advance from an Intermediate Forger to an Advanced Forger.

That was double the amount necessary for the promotion from a Basic Forger to an Intermediate Forger.

“It really is tough work.

” Shi Feng abruptly collapsed into a chair, breathing out a sigh of relief.

“With this standard, I should be able to manufacture the core component of the Magic Device.

” Even if he was producing Intermediate Mana Armor Kits, it normally should not have been possible to gain 24,000 Proficiency Points in just four days.

However, he had the Forging Talent “Forging Genius” that every forger dreamed of obtaining.

With each successful forging, he had a fixed chance to receive an additional two Proficiency Points—equivalent to successfully producing one more high-level item.

The Luck from Icarus’s Heart also helped increase his chances of triggering the effects of Forging Genius.

Only with the combination of all these effects did he manage to become an Advanced Forger.

Nevertheless, his success rate at producing the core component of the Magic Device would still be very low, even though he was now an Advanced Forger—roughly 10% at most.

If he became a Master Forger, though, his success rate could be as much as 30%.

However, time waited for no man.

Moreover, even if Shi Feng had the Book of Forging, the Blacksteel Insignia, and Forging Talent, advancing from an Advanced Forger to a Master Forger would still be extremely difficult.

That promotion was no longer a problem of Proficiency or success rate.

One of the requirements for a player to become a Master Forger was the creation of their own weapons and equipment without relying on readily available forging designs.

Doing so would not take days but rather months or years, instead.

Hence, even after a decade had passed, remarkably few players had managed to reach the level of Master.

Setting aside the fact that Shi Feng needed to advance to his Tier 2 class within a short period, just the test for the Tier 2 class was already quite challenging; the test for one of the Ten Great Saint Legacies could only be more so.

If he wanted to clear the test quickly, it was naturally better for him to be stronger.

Solomon’s Treasure might allow him to improve his strength further.

Needless to say, he had to complete the quest as soon as possible.

During these four days, many things had also occurred in the vast God’s Domain.

The most popular matter had to be the activation of the Divine Battlefield at the Divine Colosseum.

The Divine Battlefield was a place for players to wage war against each other.

Players could obtain points for killing other players in the Divine Battlefield, which they could then use to exchange for rewards.

A wide selection of rewards was available, although the most attractive rewards were still weapons and equipment.

The best reward players could trade for was Dark-Gold Set Equipment.

However, the number of points required to do so was immense.

Moreover, the weapons and equipment received were nontradable and were usable for only the person who exchanged for them.

Hence, even if the items dropped upon the owner’s death, other people could not avail of said items, though they could sell them to NPCs—at dismal prices.

To exchange for Dark-Gold Set Equipment, players were first required to reach the highest-ranking battlefield.

The Divine Battlefield was divided into multiple ranks—Soldier’s Battlefield, General’s Battlefield, Marshal’s Battlefield, King’s Battlefield, and Hero’s Battlefield—with each succeeding rank having increasingly higher entry requirements.

Only after reaching the Hero’s Battlefield could players collect points to exchange for Dark-Gold Set Equipment.

However, this was also a good way for experts to upgrade their equipment.

After all, even Guilds had a hard time obtaining Dark-Gold Weapons and Equipment.

Hence, everyone’s passion for the Divine Battlefield deepened.

When Fire Dance and her team participated in the Divine Battlefield, they would occasionally get slaughtered as well.

The players visiting the Divine Battlefield did not come from just a single kingdom or empire.

Instead, the entire God’s Domain shared a single Divine Battlefield.

Against monstrous experts or the encirclement of three or four top-tier experts, even Fire Dance and the other Zero Wing core members could only accept fate.

This experience also allowed her and the others to realize that, no matter how strong they had become, there was always someone stronger than they were.

Even if they ranked at the top of a weak, little kingdom like Star-Moon Kingdom, they were still insignificant beings in the vast world of God’s Domain.

Meanwhile, the situation at the Stoneclaw Mountains was also heating up.

Many teams had already begun clearing the monsters wandering in between the outer and inner areas of the Dungeon, and upgrading their equipment very quickly as a result.

Zero Wing was also sending large numbers of members to the Regional Dungeon to grind and level up.

For a time, competition within the Stoneclaw Mountains rapidly intensified, and quite often, friction and fighting would break out between players in the Dungeon.

With the passage of time and the continuous improvement of the system, many more experts would emerge in God’s Domain.

Hence, Shi Feng was in a hurry to improve himself further.

“Guild Leader, here are the items you’ve asked for.

” The Alchemist Nine Coasts stacked a pile of components on top of the stone platform.

Respectfully, he said, “These are all the components we’ve managed to make during these past few days.

There are 70 sets here.

” After striving for four days, he and Ocean Smile had managed to manufacture only 70 sets of components.

Despite receiving an endless amount of materials, their success rates were far lower than their initial estimates.

They had spent a full 1,000 Gold on manufacturing a mere 70 sets of components.

If converted to Credits, that amount of Coins would be worth several million.

At this point, they just wished they could crawl into a hole and die.

After all, the materials required to manufacture each component cost roughly 30 Silver.

With over 1,000 Gold, they could have produced over 3,000 individual components.

Yet, the both of them combined had only managed to make 140.

Their success rate did not even reach 5%.

“Okay, you can go back and continue making the components.

” Shi Feng nodded.

He was not surprised whatsoever by this abysmal success rate.

All things considered, those were components required to manufacture a Magic Device.

Their failure to achieve a 5% success rate was entirely within his expectations.

After Nine Coasts left, Shi Feng sorted his mood out and began producing the core component of the Magic Device.

The core component required only a few materials.

However, they were all rare materials.

Even after the Guild’s combined efforts as well as purchases through Gentle Snow’s connections, he had managed to collect only 100 sets of materials.

The cost of one set was roughly 10 Gold, so one hundred sets cost about 1,000 Gold.

Meanwhile, Shi Feng’s success rate was only around 10%.

Even the Star Alliance and Ouroboros would not be willing to take such a gamble.

“Fortunately, I’m earning quite a lot of money through Stone Forest Town and the Candlelight Trading Firm.

Otherwise, even I wouldn’t dare to take this risk,” Shi Feng muttered, smiling bitterly as he looked at the materials in his hands.

The core component he was going to produce was a ball-shaped object.

Just refining the metals required was already a difficult task.

However, by relying on the Ice-Blue Devil Flame, the metal he refined had relatively good color.

What came next was molding the metal into the desired shape.

If he was off by even a single millimeter, then the final product would end up as a failure.

As for the last step, he had to engrave runes onto the metal ball.

Time crept past.

Shi Feng went through 70 attempts in one go.

In the end, only three out of the 70 attempts had succeeded.

The difficulty of producing the core component was much higher than his initial expectations.

I’m generally familiar with the process already.

I should start using the Magical Gold now.

Shi Feng considered the materials he had left, feeling that he already had sufficient practice.

The Magical Gold rewarded by the system was an extremely rare material.

Not only could it increase his forging success rate, but it could also evolve an item at a fixed chance.

Its market value was no less than 100 Gold per piece.

Initially, Shi Feng had taken 50 tries to produce one core component.

Afterwards, however, he had managed to succeed twice out of 20.

Without a doubt, his success rate had increased significantly, which was all due to his continuous experimentation using the Simulation Device.

If he did not possess the Simulation Device of the Special Forging Room, he would have most likely failed all 70 attempts.

Chapter 681: Dual Abilities Chapter 681 – Dual Abilities With only 30 sets of materials remaining, Shi Feng did not dare to be careless.

A Magic Device was an assembly of different components.

The core component was merely one of three parts.

If he failed the final assembly, the product would be a failure as well, and the components would have to be scrapped.

Shi Feng had seen a Master Forger assemble Magic Devices in the past.

Back then, said Master Forger only had a success rate of 30%.

Even so, a massive number of players eagerly searched out this Master Forger to help assemble their Magic Devices for them because other Master Forgers had less than a 20% success rate.

Five sets of components were required just to assemble a single Magic Device.

Furthermore, each component set, which consisted of three individual components, required roughly ten sets of materials to manufacture.

In other words, at least 50 sets of materials were required to produce a Magic Device.

If one were unlucky, they might actually require more than 100 sets… Even an expert player would have to spend a long time to gather 100 sets of raw materials.

The Coins involved could also put an expert player into debt.

This was precisely why Magic Devices had been extremely rare in God’s Domain in the past.

The players capable of obtaining one were generally either experts or wealthy tycoons.

After Shi Feng had gone so much trouble to obtain 100 sets of materials, he had only managed to produce three core components after expending 70 sets.

It was not enough to assemble a Magic Device.

At the very least, he needed to prepare ten core components to have a higher chance of manufacturing a Magic Device.

After all, he was only an Advanced Forger, not a Master Forger.

Time crawled by.

Shi Feng’s first attempt to produce the core component with the Magical Gold failed.

The second attempt failed as well.

… After four consecutive failures, Shi Feng had no choice but to give up on using the Magical Gold.

Magical Gold was one of the best support tools for forging Dark-Gold and Epic items.

Even Shi Feng felt a sting after failing four times in a row.

On his ninth attempt, Shi Feng finally succeeded.

“Sure enough, engraving the runes is the most difficult stage.

” Shi Feng could tell that his previous successes had not been due to luck because he had felt as if his entire being had melted into the metal while he had focused on engraving the runes on this last core.

He had felt something similar during his previous successes.

This feeling of melding with the core component?

Shi Feng stopped his work for a moment and pondered the sensation.

It feels somewhat like improving my Skill Completion Rate.

To improve my Skill Completion Rate, I had to integrate myself with the environment.

Suddenly, Shi Feng retrieved a bottle of Hundred Berry Wine from his bag and began to manufacture the core component once again.

This time, he used a bar of Magical Gold.

The Hundred Berry Wine was a tool that could increase one’s compatibility rate.

Since the theory behind engraving runes was somewhat similar to improving Skill Completion Rates, the Hundred Berry Wine should help him reach a higher success rate with the engraving the core component’s runes.

This time, Shi Feng completed the core component’s refinement much faster than before.

In just five minutes, Shi Feng finished refining and molding the metals.

He also completed engraving the runes in a single breath.

As the core component felt like an extension of himself, Shi Feng’s control over the rune engraving process was quite high.

System: Core component has been successfully manufactured.

Forging Proficiency increased by 3 points.

Obtained 50,000 EXP.

Sure enough, my guess was correct.

Excitement bubbled in Shi Feng’s chest as he heard the sound of the notification.

I never realized that the Hundred Berry Wine could be used like this as well.

Immediately, Shi Feng used the remaining materials in one go.

Of the remaining 20 sets of materials, he successfully produced four core components.

Among them, Magical Gold had been incorporated into three.

His success rate had reached the level of a Master Forger.

With this, he had managed to produce nine core components with the 100 sets of materials.

Among them, four had Magical Gold.

He was only one core component from his goal of ten.

Now, all that was left was to assemble the Magic Device.

If he succeeded, he would be the first player in God’s Domain to birth a Magic Device.

As the weapon that had brought about the end of the era of Demons and Gods, one could just imagine how powerful a Magic Device was.

A Magic Device’s most valuable effect was its ability to strengthen weapons, allowing these weapons to inflict damage to Demons and Gods.

To put it simply, Magic Devices had given humans the ability to resist Demons and Gods.

Of course, the Magic Device Shi Feng had obtained was not that powerful as it was only Bronze rank.

Even so, a Bronze Magic Device should not be underestimated.

As players reached higher levels in God’s Domain, the monsters they encountered would grow stronger as well.

At some point, even Dark-Gold and Epic Weapons would not deal much damage.

However, after one equipped a Bronze Magic Device, even a Secret-Silver Weapon could cut through the tough hide and scales of monsters, not to mention Fine-Gold and Dark-Gold Weapons.

If players did not possess a Magic Device, however, the difficulty of defeating those powerful monsters would increase significantly.

Hence, in the past, the various large Guilds throughout God’s Domain had been extremely desperate to obtain Magic Devices.

Even the design for a Bronze Magic Device could incite a war between first-rate Guilds.

Now that Shi Feng had obtained a Magic Device Forging Design so early into the game, he could begin to manufacture them much sooner than anyone else.

He would also be prepared when everyone began encountering monsters that could not be easily defeated with normal weapons.

The first assembly failed… The second assembly failed… The third assembly was successful!

System: Bronze Magic Device has been successfully manufactured.

Forging Proficiency increased by 5 points.

Obtained 100,000 EXP.

Shi Feng was stunned when he heard the system notification.

“This can’t be real, right?

Success on the third try?

” Shi Feng muttered, astonishment filling his voice, as he stared at the fist-sized metal ball in his hand.

The black metal ball overflowed with light; the surging Mana within was visible to the naked eye.

“I wonder what kind of Attributes it possesses?

” After a Magic Device’s successful assembly, it would gain a random Ability.

Although the bonus a Magic Device provided varied in strength, the Magic Device’s basic function would not change; the layer of Mana that covered the weapon, or Mana Blade, was invaluable.

This Mana Blade could interfere with the Mana that radiated off a monster’s body, thereby weakening its Defense significantly and allowing players to inflict damage.

Otherwise, a monster’s body with that protective layer of Mana was tougher than diamond.

Even scratching the monster would be extremely difficult, not to mention taking it out.

[Magic Device] (Bronze Rank) Strengthens a weapon, giving it the Basic Reduced Weight effect and weaken target’s Mana Body by 30%.

“What a pity.

Although the weakening effect is quite powerful, the Reduced Weight effect isn’t particularly useful to a one-handed weapon.

It would be very useful towards a two-handed weapon though.

” Shi Feng inwardly felt disappointed.

Both the Abyssal Blade and Purgatory’s Shadow fit him perfectly right now.

If they became any lighter, he might not be able to exert his full strength with them.

Following which, Shi Feng returned to assembling Magic Devices.

One… Two… Three… As his stock of components dwindled, the sound of a system notification rang by his ears once more.

System: Bronze Magic Device has been successfully manufactured.

Magical Gold’s effect triggered.

Forging Proficiency increased by 5 points.

Obtained 100,000 EXP.

When Shi Feng heard that the Magical Gold’s effect had been triggered, his excitement stole his breath.

Originally, he had only used the Magical Gold to increase the success rate of manufacturing the Magic Device’s core component.

Hence, he had not expected the Magical Gold’s effect to trigger.

Immediately, Shi Feng clicked to inspect the evolved Magic Device’s statistics.

“Dual Abilities?!

Isn’t this a little too much?!

” Shi Feng could not believe what he was seeing.

A Magic Device could only strengthen a single Attribute.

Even the higher ranked Mysterious-Iron Magic Device was no exception to this rule.

Only the strengthened effects were slightly better.

However, the Magic Device in Shi Feng’s hands actually offered two buffs.

Chapter 682: Power of Magic Device Chapter 682 – Power of Magic Device “It really is a pity.

It would be great if the Magic Device’s rank were a little higher,” Shi Feng felt both joy and disappointment as he gazed down at the pale silver orb in his hand.

The Bronze Magic Device’s debuff was average at best.

Although it was more than enough against current monsters, it would grow increasingly weaker as the game progressed.

Sooner or later, the Bronze Magic Device would have to be discarded for something better.

And yet, he had never heard of even a Mysterious-Iron Magic Device possessing Dual Abilities.

Purely in terms of combat power, the double-Attributed Bronze Magic Device was stronger than ordinary Mysterious-Iron Magic Devices.

Only, Mysterious-Iron Magic Devices posed more of a threat to a monster’s Mana Body.

Oh well, one can’t have everything.

I’ve already lucked out by manufacturing a double-Attributed Magic Device.

I can’t get too greedy.

Shi Feng quickly shifted his focus, and the more he looked at the Magic Device in his hand, the more he fell in love with it.

[Magic Device] (Bronze Rank) Strengthens a weapon, giving it the Basic Vibration effect, Basic Polarizing effect, and weaken target’s Mana Body by 27%.

Both the Vibration effect and the Polarizing effect were considerably powerful Additional Abilities among Magic Devices.

The previous Device Shi Feng manufactured only had the Reduced Weight effect.

However, the Vibration effect could allow a weapon to emit high-frequency vibrations, allowing it to display astonishing destructive power with each hit.

Meanwhile, the Polarizing effect could refract light off of weapons, making it difficult for enemies to predict the weapon’s trajectory and dodge it effectively.

Originally, among the many Abilities available, these two were only Intermediate Abilities.

However, when these two Abilities were combined, the overall strength the Magical Device offered increased exponentially.

Not only could the Magic Device make a weapon difficult to dodge, but it could also give the weapon immense destructive power.

The combined effects of these two Abilities was not the slightest bit inferior to an Advanced Ability.

Magic Devices of different ranks generated different Abilities.

Normally, Bronze Magic Devices could only generate Basic or Intermediate Abilities, with the former having a higher chance.

Mysterious-Iron Magic Devices could only generate Basic or Intermediate Abilities.

Only, it had a higher chance of generating an Intermediate Ability.

Only after reaching Secret-Silver rank could a Magic Device generate an Advanced Ability.

However, the probability was not very high.

Currently, although his Magic Devices was only Bronze rank, it rivaled a Secret-Silver Magic Device with an Advanced Ability.

How could he not grow excited?

However, this was also the reason for Shi Feng’s disappointment.

Advanced Abilities were extremely rare.

Even in the past, Magic Devices that possessed Advanced Abilities had been as rare as a phoenix’s feather.

The appearance of one usually triggered a rain of blood.

“I wonder what kind of effects it will have after it is equipped?

” Shi Feng could no longer hold back as he impatiently equipped the Magic Device on the Abyssal Blade.

The moment Shi Feng placed the Magic Device on the Abyssal Blade, the pale silver orb transformed into a blob of liquid that seeped into the Magic Weapon.

A small alchemy array then appeared on the sword’s hilt.

In the next moment, the alchemy array began to absorb a large amount of Mana from the surroundings, assimilating it into the Abyssal Blade and increasing the Magic Weapon’s power.

When Shi Feng swung the Abyssal Blade lightly, he saw the sword split into three identical blades.

With just the naked eye, it was impossible to tell which sword was the real one.

When the Abyssal Blade passed through a corner of the stone platform, the blade easily sliced through the dense stone, leaving behind a surface that was as smooth as a mirror.

“Amazing.

If someone else equipped this Magic Device and used it against me, I think even I would even struggle to block the attack.

” Looking at the stone platform with its missing a corner, Shi Feng was very surprised.

The Special Forging Room’s stone platform was not an ordinary stone platform.

Normally, even a Magic Weapon could only leave a small scratch.

Now, however, Shi Feng had effortlessly sliced off the platform’s edge.

For a moment there, Shi Feng had even wondered if he had missed as he had not felt the slightest resistance when the Abyssal Blade passed through the stone.

If his target had been a Secret-Silver Weapon or a piece of Equipment, the item might have split in half effortlessly.

Shi Feng even doubted whether a Fine-Gold Weapon could withstand such a frightening, destructive power.

Currently, expert player’s mainstream weapons were only Fine-Gold rank.

If even Fine-Gold Weapons could not block his attacks, enemy experts with Fine-Gold Weapons would be tantamount to unarmed noobs.

How were they supposed to face him?

“With this strength, I should be able to try Mount Sogar.

” Although Shi Feng had never been to Mount Sogar before, he was not unfamiliar with the Top of the World.

Now that he had dealt with the most dangerous part of the journey, all that was left was locating Solomon’s Treasure.

Weissman had already given him the map, which had been engraved on the Elemental Core.

However, the map was too simple, and he had no idea where exactly Solomon’s Treasure was.

Fortunately, the map did not lead to a high-leveled area on Mount Sogar.

With his current strength, he should be able to cope with the dangers there.

Following which, Shi Feng tidied up the room and took out the Position Teleportation Scroll.

He intended to head to the Top of the World immediately.

Suddenly, the sound of a system notification reached his ears, indicating that Blackie had sent him a message.

Guild Leader, Aqua seems to be having trouble.

Please head over to the Residence in Stone Forest Town quickly.

Shi Feng froze, slightly surprised.

Stone Forest Town had NPC guards to protect it.

Unless they wanted to be banished, the various Guilds would not stir up trouble.

If a Guild were banished from Stone Forest Town, they would no longer have a place to resupply or repair.

As long as one had a brain, nobody would dare provoke Zero Wing right now.

In fact, they should be afraid of the Guild.

Forget it.

Let’s see what’s going on.

Shi Feng stored the Position Teleportation Scroll and took out a Guild Transfer Scroll.

Currently, the Teleportation Magic Array in Stone Forest Town was still under construction.

If players of Zero Wing wished to arrive at Stone Forest Town quickly, their only option was to use the Guild Transfer Scroll.

After using one, they would have to wait for an hour before they could use one again.

It was far more inconvenient than a teleportation array.

Moreover, the scrolls were not cheap.

Ordinary Guild members would not be willing to use it.

— Stone Forest Town, inside the reception room of Zero Wing’s Guild Residence: At this moment, Aqua Rose wore a very ugly expression, flames of rage burning in her eyes.

Meanwhile, the two people sitting across from Aqua Rose smiled.

Aqua Rose’s anger did not affect them in the slightest.

Of these two people, one was an indifferent-looking middle-aged man, while the other was a beautiful woman wearing a glamorous purple robe that revealed a large portion of her cleavage.

If Shi Feng were here right now, he would certainly be surprised.

The indifferent man was none other than Twilight Echo’s Guild Leader, Glorious Echo.

“Guild Leader Glorious, don’t you think you’re going overboard?

” Aqua Rose asked coldly.

“Overboard?

How is this overboard?

I am just offering a kind reminder,” Glorious Echo laughed.

“Although you left Twilight Echo, do not forget that you have yet to dissolve your contract with the Guild.

If I sue you for breach of contract, can you afford the compensation?

” “I’ve already clearly stated that I am only a Vice-Leader of Zero Wing.

I do not have the authority to allow Twilight Echo to construct a Guild Residence in Stone Forest Town.

I have even less authority to give Twilight Echo half the town,” Aqua Rose growled.

She had wanted to dissolve her contract with Twilight Echo the moment she first left, but in the end, she had abstained as her family sat on the Board of Directors of the Guild.

However, she never would have thought that now…
