Chapter 876: Successful Refined Sacrifice

The energy from the altar gathered in mid-air, and with a forceful throw, Chen Feng had thrown the sub-divine artifact onto the altar. In the next second, the power from the sacrifice swarmed towards the clothing!

“Crackle!”

The energy struck the clothing like raindrops, and the clothing began to activate its defense mode, a faint blue shield appearing to block the energy outside.

“Boom!”

But that’s not all. As the relentless energy continued to batter the clothing, it suddenly swelled, and a blurry figure holding a trident emerged from within!

This was the divine will!

The entity descended upon this land to conquer the Human World, even the Child of Destiny was just a pawn. Pang Mu thought he had devoured the entity, but little did he know, all this was within the thoughts of the divine being. Even without Chen Feng, when Pang Mu could no longer restrain his power, his soul would lose control and become a puppet.

However, Chen Feng’s arrival changed everything, setting this situation on a mysterious path.

On this sub-divine artifact, there resides the will left by the divine being, which still struggles to guard the ownership of this armor.

Yet, it’s a task even the divine soul failed to resist, let alone this weaker will. The energy on the altar was gathered like a tempest, and on its surface were terrifying faces, transformed from the Resentful Spirits within the divine being!

As the tempest appeared, it seemed to coat the world in darkness, robbing any entity within its reach of self-awareness!

“Crack!”

The divine will tried to resist, but under such terrifying force, it had no chance of defense and was torn apart by the tempest. Following this, the radiance on the surface of the sub-divine artifact was extinguished, and as the tempest dissipated, the clothing lay quietly on the ground, lacking any gloss.

Having completed the ritual, space rippled briefly and then the altar vanished without a trace, leaving only the simple-looking clothing suspended mid-air.

Chen Feng looked ahead, puzzled.

“Could the altar’s power be so terrifying that not only the divine will, but even the sub-divine artifact has been completely destroyed into a mundane object?”

A thought suddenly surfaced in Chen Feng’s mind, if that was the case, all of this would be too dreadful, having worked tirelessly without gaining any benefits would be the greatest tragedy in the world.

To verify his thoughts, Chen Feng leaped high up to grab the sub-divine artifact, feeling its ordinary fabric without sensing any flowing power. At this moment, his heart made a jarring thud, its beat quickened significantly.

He felt like he was gambling with stones, buying an expensive jade with the risk of one cut leading to Hell or Heaven.

If successful, another sub-divine artifact would be gained, but failure meant all efforts were wasted, a result of utmost tragedy!

However, understanding the importance of staying calm during critical moments, Chen Feng furrowed his brow, steadied his right hand gripping the clothing, and in the next second, released his Spiritual Power, slowly infiltrating the garment.

“Swish!”

As his thoughts penetrated the clothing, he suddenly heard the sound of waves, and upon opening his eyes, everything around him had changed again!

The barren wilderness was gone, replaced by a true deep ocean!

This ocean seemed to be swirling in a frantic storm, the entire sea roared with waves while the sky was shrouded in dark clouds, within which countless Resentful Spirits churned and rolled!

Chen Feng was somewhat surprised, the presence of the sub-divine artifact differed from before. When Pang Mu wore this garment earlier, it too, radiated oceanic power but was gentle like a calm sea under sunlight, not even a wave broke higher than usual.

But now, the interior of this sub-divine artifact had undergone a horrifying transformation, the energy turning ferocious and formidable as though a tsunami was about to strike, bringing a sense of impending submersion. Additionally, the clouds also twisted with countless Resentful Spirits, which scurried and emitted eerie laughter.

This was no longer a serene sea surface but an evil sanctuary where normal beings could hardly survive!

Could it be…

A gleam appeared in Chen Feng’s eyes, realizing the altar’s energy was so terrifying that while obliterating the divine soul, it simultaneously infused evil energy into the artifact, leading to its earth-shattering change!

If it was due to other reasons, changing the origin energy of a sub-divine artifact wouldn’t be easy, but the altar was different, being the manifestation of the Abyss with no concern for a mere sub-divine artifact!

In almost an instant, the origin of this sub-divine artifact had changed, now not just the forceful ocean energy, but also carrying a somber, evil death aura!

Though the clothing wasn’t destroyed, it was primarily water-attributed, while Chen Feng’s Endless Sword and transformation related closely to flames.

Despite being elemental opposites, the garment only defends upon attack, remaining ordinary otherwise, thus not hindering Chen Feng’s use of the Endless Sword or transformation into a Demon!

The sub-divine artifact might seem grand now, but it is still an ownerless object, akin to a wild horse galloping across a plain. Although slightly dangerous, if tamed, could become a fine steed.

Having gained experience from refining the Endless Sword, Chen Feng let his will permeate the sub-divine artifact, and slowly, he felt a connection with the clothing as if he could control its ocean, summoning terrifying waves at will, calming them to tranquility, making even the spirits in the dark clouds obediently retreat as he’d become the new master of this realm.

In the next second, the clothing levitated into the air and, with a flash of light, adhered to Chen Feng’s body, appearing unremarkable from the exterior, unlike the grandeur seen when Pang Mu wore it, just an ordinary outfit.

Yet, Chen Feng knew the sub-divine artifact’s true terror, seemingly ordinary but hiding a world of waves within, featuring self-repair capabilities, able to restore itself unless completely shattered.

Despite the dangers present in this ordeal, refining the sub-divine artifact proved worthwhile, as all difficulties were meaningful!
