Chapter 1 Ancient Book

The Abyss Summoning from the ancient book could bring disaster to God's Domain, but also power to the players.

The Hell Demon didn't realize one thing.

The power brought to players wasn't simply immunity to Abyss monsters' attacks, but also an increase in basic attributes within the demonic domain expanded by Abyss monsters.

The real use was establishing safe zones.

Within these safe zones, players wouldn't be attacked by Abyss monsters.

This was the greatest value the Forbidden Ancient Book could offer players.

Now that the Abyss passage was open, a large number of Abyss monsters would appear not only in the Twin Towers Kingdom, but also in the Star-Moon Kingdom. However, it would take some time for those Abyss monsters to fly from the Twin Towers Kingdom to the Star-Moon Kingdom, so the Star-Moon Kingdom was still peaceful.

Once those Abyss monsters flew to the Star-Moon Kingdom, life wouldn't be easy for the players there.

Of course, it wasn't just the Star-Moon Kingdom that was affected. The surrounding kingdoms and empires would also be affected to a considerable extent, just not as severely as the Twin Towers Kingdom.

To gain an advantage in the Abyss invasion, the ancient book was essential.

Fortunately, the ancient book had a characteristic: it always dropped upon death, and after using Abyss Summoning, the ancient book could only be stored in the player's backpack, not in other places.

As long as the Hell Demon was killed, the ancient book could naturally be obtained.

The only trouble was the Holy Light City.

As the imperial capital, it was heavily guarded. The captains patrolling the streets were all Tier 3 NPCs of level 180. If players made the slightest move, these Tier 3 NPCs could kill them immediately.

"It seems I need to raise the Abyssal Blade's level," Shi Feng looked at his attributes, feeling somewhat helpless.

In order to absorb the Soul Fire, his basic attributes had decreased by 45%. Even though his attributes were very strong, such a large decrease meant that his basic attributes were no match for peak experts like the Hell Demon, let alone killing the Hell Demon in Holy Light City.

The only way was to enhance the power of the Abyssal Blade.

Since the last time he upgraded the Abyssal Blade to level 30, he had quickly obtained the Holy Sword Thunder Slay, so he hadn't been in a hurry to upgrade the Abyssal Blade's level.

But now that his attributes had decreased so much, he could only rely on the Abyssal Blade to greatly increase his combat power.

Afterward, Shi Feng entered the Candlelight Trading Firm, stored the engineering vehicle design drawings in the trading firm's warehouse, took some weapons that Youlan had stored in advance, used spatial movement to leave White River City, and came to Howling Moon Canyon, a leveling area far from the city and uninhabited.

Howling Moon Canyon was a leveling area for levels 10 to 20, far too low for the current mainstream player level. At most, some newbies who had just entered God's Domain would come here to level up. However, Howling Moon Canyon didn't have abundant resources, and there were very few quests. No players would come here to level up, making it perfect for upgrading the Abyssal Blade.

"I wonder what kind of commotion this upgrade will cause." Shi Feng carefully drew the Abyssal Blade from his waist, brought up the Abyssal Blade's system bar, and selected Upgrade Abyssal Blade.

Unlike upgrading to level 30, the number of weapons required to upgrade the Abyssal Blade to level 35 had increased significantly, requiring a full twenty Fine-Gold weapons of level 35 and three Dark-Gold weapons of level 35.

Level 35 Fine-Gold weapons were definitely top-grade weapons for the current God's Domain players. Ordinary expert players rarely obtained weapons of this level, let alone level 35 Dark-Gold weapons, which were extremely rare for large guilds and were completely divine artifacts in the eyes of ordinary God's Domain players.

However, Shi Feng didn't say anything and selected twenty Fine-Gold and Dark-Gold weapons from his backpack.

Then, the Abyssal Blade turned into a cloud of black mist. The twenty-three weapons selected from the backpack suddenly flew out of the backpack and rotated around Shi Feng in mid-air.

Immediately afterward, a black magic array formed under Shi Feng's feet, and a dark beam of light shot straight into the sky.

From a distance, a dark pillar could be seen standing in the forest of the canyon.

Then, the twenty-three weapons turned into ashes, becoming twenty-three pure golden energy balls that sank into the magic array.

After the golden energy balls completely dissipated, Shi Feng suddenly heard the sound of iron chains breaking. Immediately afterward, a dragon's roar echoed throughout the canyon, scaring the monsters in the canyon into paralysis.

The lush flowers, plants, and trees around Shi Feng seemed to have been deprived of all vitality, beginning to wither and turn yellow, eventually turning into ashes, which spread to more than 20 yards around before stopping.

Seeing the Abyssal Blade condense again, turning into a pure silver sword with bright red magic patterns engraved in the center of the blade, faintly exuding a faint bloody aura, Shi Feng didn't care so much and clicked the upgrade button again.

To upgrade from level 35 to level 40, the number of weapons didn't change, still twenty-three, but they had to be level 40 weapons.

Level 40 top-grade weapons were simply a dream for the current players, because the person with the highest level in an empire was only level 39, still a considerable distance from level 40, let alone obtaining level 40 Dark-Gold weapons.

But for Shi Feng, there were quite a few level 40 superb weapons. Before, in order to upgrade and get design drawings, he had killed a lot of high-level field Bosses, and he also had the Divine Grace skill. Level 40 weapons were a dime a dozen, and it was easy to take out twenty-three at random.

The Abyssal Blade was upgraded again.

The original black magic array had now turned into a double magic array, and the covered range had expanded from a radius of 15 yards to a radius of 45 yards. The huge black pillar stood in the canyon, which could be seen clearly even standing at the entrance of Howling Moon Canyon, not to mention the players inside the canyon.

"What is that?"

"What's wrong with those monsters?"

The players who were leveling and fighting monsters in the canyon were stunned one by one.

The black pillar was like a towering mountain, pressing on everyone's hearts, making them feel a burst of suffocation. Life and death were no longer in their control, completely dominated by the black light.

However, shortly after the black light appeared, a deafening dragon roar suddenly came, and some weak monsters in the canyon were directly scared to death, and the players were not much better, all sitting on the ground, trembling.

"Could there be some legendary monster there?"

"Why don't we go and take a look? Maybe it's a chance encounter or a rare Boss. If we can get it, we'll be rich."

Although the player teams felt fear, they were more excited.

There were quite a few chance encounters in God's Domain. There were many such stories on the internet. Originally unknown rookie newbies, because of a chance encounter, obtained a treasure and became a local master with a small reputation. Otherwise, they made a lot of money and changed into a good set of equipment, which made everyone envious.

So compared to death, they wanted to get treasures more, maybe they could change their lives from then on.

However, the place where the light pillar disappeared was now a mess. The flowers, plants, trees, and even monsters within a radius of 100 yards had turned into ashes, and only one person and one sword stood in the center, as if they were the masters of this world.
