Chapter 96 Transformation of the Demonic Artifact

Chapter 13 Abyssal Blade

After the Abyssal Blade completed its upgrade, Shi Feng selected the weapon to be devoured.

Suddenly, a dragon's roar echoed from the Abyssal Blade, and several streaks of black flames emerged from the sword's body. The black flames transformed into a dragon's head, which bit down on the weapon to be devoured, consuming it piece by piece.

In the blink of an eye, eleven Xuan Iron-grade weapons were devoured by the black flames, all their essence flowing into the Abyssal Blade. This transformed the blade, so that it no longer resembled a burnt iron rod. It now faintly radiated a cold sharpness, and the color of the blade became more rustic, like a treasured sword that had been sealed away for many years.

When Shi Feng held it again, he felt that the Abyssal Blade was heavier. Holding the hilt, he could feel a cool sensation. He then swung the sword a few times.

*Shua shua shua…*

The air seemed to be torn apart like paper, emitting a ripping sound.

The weapon shop owner, also a master blacksmith, was dumbfounded by this scene, almost pulling off his own goatee.

The seemingly ordinary weapon was actually so sharp, surpassing even Fine-Gold grade weapons. If used properly, it might even be able to cut through Bronze-grade weapons with a single strike.

"A good sword!" Shi Feng swung it a few times, feeling that after the upgrade, the sword seemed to be even more suited to him. He then checked the attributes of the Abyssal Blade.

Abyssal Blade, One-Handed Sword, Magic Weapon.

Attack Power: 39

All Attributes: +14

Attack Speed: +5

Ignores monster level by 5. 15% chance to deal 2x damage on attack. 10% chance to inflict Doom Curse, reducing all attributes by 40% for 30 seconds.

For all Swordsman-class holders, all skill levels +2, and free attributes gained per level increase by 2 points.

Equipment Level: 5, Upgradeable (Upgradeable to level 10 by devouring ten level 10 Bronze weapons and one level 10 Xuan Iron weapon), Evolvable (Unknown).

Attached Skill 1: Phantom Kill, instantly creates a clone with 50% of the main body's attributes and all skills, lasting 35 seconds, cooldown 5 minutes.

Attached Skill 2: Abyssal Shackles, immobilizes the enemy, while reducing defense by 100%. Lasts 3 seconds, cooldown 1 minute.

Attached Skill 3: Nine-Headed Dragon Slash, instantly creates nine Abyssal Blade phantoms for the wielder to use, each phantom sword deals 30% damage, lasting 24 seconds, cooldown 5 minutes.

A famous sword personally forged by the master blacksmith Olisis using the fangs of the Black Dragon King as materials. One of the thirty-six famous swords of God's Domain, ranked thirty-first. However, this sword is cursed by the Black Dragon King. In addition to granting the wielder amazing power, it will periodically backfire on the wielder. If the backlash cannot be suppressed, the wielder will be cursed by the Black Dragon King, permanently reducing all attributes by 50%. Cannot be dropped, cannot be traded.

The attribute boost was considerable. Its pure attack power was comparable to a level 5 Xuan Iron-grade two-handed weapon. Adding in the base attributes, it far exceeded a level 5 Mithril-grade two-handed weapon.

A one-handed sword with the destructive power of a two-handed weapon, and a one-handed sword that is lighter and faster. The Abyssal Blade possessed both the destructive power of a two-handed weapon and the lightness and speed of a one-handed weapon. This was the terror of a magic weapon, something only a master blacksmith could forge.

This made Shi Feng look forward to upgrading the Abyssal Blade to level 10.

He originally intended to sell the level 10 Fine-Gold grade greatsword obtained from the Sun Temple, but now he dismissed that idea. If the Abyssal Blade devoured it, how much would it improve?

However, Shi Feng was just thinking about it. To have a good overall improvement, relying on one weapon alone would not be enough. At least ten level 10 Mithril-grade or higher weapons were needed. Now Xuan Iron-grade weapons were already rare, not to mention the extremely precious Mithril-grade weapons.

After putting away the Abyssal Blade, Shi Feng took out a Return Scroll and began to read it to return to Red Leaf Town. If he had to run back again, he would probably be 100% late. If he made the Ice Goddess wait, he couldn't imagine the consequences…

Red Leaf Town, Trade District.

After Shi Feng changed back to his original appearance, he made some modifications to the style of the Silvermoon Set, making it look like a set of pieced-together Bronze equipment. If he changed back to the original style, Bai Qingxue would definitely discover the trick, and it would be difficult to explain at that time.

"Brother Feng, we are here." Hei Zi saw Shi Feng walking over and stood up to call out.

The others also stood up to greet Shi Feng, casting grateful glances at him. If it weren't for Shi Feng asking Hei Zi to bring them, they probably wouldn't have been able to level up to level 5 so quickly, and they would still be struggling at the bottom.

Most of the expert players were now level 4, and a small number had reached level 5, but their equipment was not very good. Those who were lucky might have one or two pieces of Bronze equipment with poor attributes. Only those expert players were wearing six or seven pieces of Bronze equipment, while they had seven or eight pieces of Bronze equipment.

They were already very grateful and decided to follow Shi Feng. They never expected that Hei Zi would be willing to sign a contract with them, allowing them to join Zero Wing Studio and become official members, enjoying a monthly salary of four thousand.

They were not game idiots and naturally knew the treatment of official members of various studios. Even in the studios that ranked high in the city, the treatment of official members was only a monthly salary of three thousand. Even so, many expert players squeezed their heads to get in, but they were just rookie newbies, and they actually had a monthly salary of four thousand, which was like a dream.

Although they also asked to reduce their salary, Hei Zi flatly rejected it, saying that Shi Feng had said it himself and it could not be changed.

They had no choice but to sign the contract and officially became members of Zero Wing Studio.

Although they looked good now, they knew their own strength in their hearts. Joining a studio was almost impossible. It would be good enough to become an outer member, let alone an official member.

Shi Feng glanced at everyone's equipment and, based on his many years of experience, could guess their approximate attributes. Their base attributes definitely exceeded those of many elite members of small guilds, but it was still not enough: "Let's go to the warehouse first."

Everyone was puzzled. What were they going to do at the warehouse at this time?

However, they didn't ask much and just followed.

Arriving at the bank warehouse, Shi Feng took out all the equipment that everyone could use. These equipment were all obtained from opening boxes in Moonlight Grove, and each attribute was excellent.

Everyone was dumbfounded. They frantically grinded monsters, and even killed many elite monsters before, but the equipment they obtained combined was not as much as Shi Feng alone. Not to mention the quality, all of them were level 5 Bronze equipment, completely surpassing the level 2 or 3 equipment they had.

"Brother Feng, how many elite monsters did you kill?" Hei Zi was full of amazement, but he was not polite and replaced all the equipment he could. His equipment was only slightly worse than a level 5 Bronze set, but the staff he was holding was a level 5 Xuan Iron-grade, which could completely make up for the gap.

The others also replaced all their equipment. Their base attributes were now much stronger than those of the elite members of the big guilds.

One by one, they had upgraded their weapons and equipment, and they were confident enough to even challenge a twenty-man team dungeon.

After Shi Feng checked everyone's attributes, he nodded in satisfaction: "Let's go."
