Chapter 1016 – New Overlord

Eternal Realm, primordial civilization city:

Shi Feng appeared in the Teleportation Tower in a flash of light, a massive headache assaulting him as he stepped out of the teleportation array.

Why is the trip back so much rougher? If my Concentration hadn’t reached Tier 7, I would probably have fainted by now, Shi Feng thought to himself as he looked at the fading crimson space-time passage behind him with lingering fear.

From the moment the old man sent Shi Feng into the space-time passage until he exited, he felt as if someone had repeatedly hacked at his soul with a blade. The excruciating experience would’ve been unbearable for the average person.

Shi Feng even suspected that he might have suffered Soul Annihilation had he undergone this experience when he was still at Tier 6, and he would never have reached the Primordial Abyssal God’s Promotion Land.

However, Shi Feng soon forgot about his headache when he stepped out of the Teleportation Tower and saw the street before him. More specifically, his attention was drawn to the many shops, high-end hotels, restaurants, bars, etc. that lined the sides of the street. They were all Advanced Constructions that had dozens of floors.

Additionally, he saw many high-ranking caravans and high-level players traversing the street. Most of these players were Level 230 or above, including quite a few Level 240 experts. There were also Mysterious-Iron Flying Ships sailing everywhere over the city. He even spotted 1,000-meter-long Flying Ships from time to time. This situation dumbfounded him.

The current primordial civilization city looked nothing like a recently established Guild City. It looked more prosperous than even the Holy Cities outside the Eternal Realm.

How long was I away? Shi Feng couldn’t help but wonder if he had returned to the wrong world when he saw the wares of the various shops.

Many shops lining the street sold Level 240-plus Taboo Legendary Weapons and Equipment. Some even sold Level 250 Taboo Legendary Equipment. This was not a sight he would dare to dream of before he left to challenge his Tier 7 promotion.

Before his departure, Dragon’s Crown had only recently gained the ability to farm Level 245 Taboo Legendary Equipment. It was still far from fully equipping its members with such equipment, let alone selling to outsiders.

The shops before him were not situated in the city’s central area. They were only near the Teleportation Tower, an area that was barely a prime location of the city. Even so, over 20 shops sold Level 240-plus Taboo Legendary Weapons and Equipment. Some even sold Level 250 Taboo Legendary Equipment, an item he had never seen before. This wasn’t a transformation that could occur in just two or three days.

With many questions plaguing him, Shi Feng hurried back to Zero Wing’s Residence for answers.

Upon returning to the Guild Residence, Shi Feng found that far fewer experts were garrisoning it than before. Although the average level of Zero Wing’s members had risen considerably, the number of fifth-floor experts in the Residence was at least 90% lower. Furthermore, when he entered the Guild Hall, he failed to see a single guild executive he knew.

Unable to hold back his curiosity, Shi Feng contacted Blackie and asked, “Blackie, what’s the situation in the primordial civilization city?”

Besides sixth-floor experts who could serve as pillars of the Guild, Zero Wing also needed plenty of fifth-floor experts to function. If the Guild relied solely on its few sixth-floor experts to raid Taboo Team Dungeons in the remnant primordial world, it wouldn’t be able to obtain many Level 240-plus weapons and equipment.

Zero Wing was undoubtedly in crisis now that the Guild had seemingly lost 90% of its fifth-floor experts.

“Guild Leader, you’re back!” Blackie cried out joyfully when he saw Shi Feng through the video call. “It’s been close to 20 days since I last saw you! Had you stayed missing any longer, I would’ve had Soul and the others forcibly log you out of the game!”

“Twenty days?”

Blackie’s words startled Shi Feng. Although he had long since assumed the crimson space-time passage had warped the flow of time, he never expected so much time to have passed. He didn’t dare to imagine what would have become of Zero Wing had he decided to extend his stay in the Promotion Land by a few more days.

“Yes, you were gone for nearly 20 days,” Blackie said, nodding. “A lot of things happened during this period. Firstly, the war among the three races is in full swing. As a result, our race’s various powers have lost over one-third of their NPC Cities and Guild Cities. Fortunately, many powerhouses emerged from our race. We even have over 20 sixth-floor experts now. If not for Zero Wing having Firmament and Gentle Snow, Hidden Soul, and Fervent Samsara reaching the sixth-floor standard, we might not have been able to keep our operations in Shadowring Town, the Crystal City of Secrets, and the primordial civilization city.”

“Snow and the others reached the sixth-floor standard?” Shi Feng was elated by the news of Gentle Snow, Hidden Soul, and Fervent Samsara becoming Mortal Gods. Although he knew that they wouldn’t have difficulty achieving the sixth-floor standard with their talent and the help of Tower of the Abyss, he hadn’t expected them to achieve it this quickly.

Regardless, this meant that Zero Wing now commanded five Mortal Gods. None of the other human apex powers—aside from the Seven Luminaries Alliance—had achieved this number in his previous life.

“But the war is no longer the main focus in the Eternal Realm during this period,” Blackie continued. “The thing that has everyone’s attention now is the space-time passage that opened up in Holy Ring City some time ago. It leads to a primordial ruin that drops forging designs for Level 240-plus Taboo Legendary Equipment and Fragmented Divine Artifacts. This discovery further escalated the bloodshed among the three races. Thus far, over ten sixth-floor experts and Divine Set users have already suffered a permanent death because of this primordial ruin.”

“It produces Level 240-plus Fragmented Divine Artifact Forging Designs?” Shi Feng was shocked.

He wouldn’t have been as surprised or bothered if the primordial ruin only dropped Level 240-plus Taboo Legendary Equipment Forging Designs. After all, it was possible to obtain Level 240-plus Taboo Legendary Equipment from the remnant primordial world’s Taboo Dungeons. However, it was a completely different story if the primordial ruin dropped Level 240-plus Fragmented Divine Artifact Forging Designs. Obtaining one such design was tantamount to gaining the ability to mass-produce Divine Artifacts.

If anybody were to get their hands on a Level 240-plus Fragmented Divine Artifact Forging Design, Zero Wing’s Advanced Divine Strengthening Scrolls would instantly become obsolete. After all, Divine Artifacts might be incredibly difficult for current players to produce, but many Great Grandmaster Forgers could produce Fragmented Divine Artifacts. Moreover, if these Great Grandmaster Forgers got their hands on a Level 240-plus Fragmented Divine Artifact Forging Design, they might even achieve a breakthrough and become a Craftsman Forger.

“It is because that place drops Level 240-plus Fragmented Divine Artifact Forging Designs that competition over it has intensified over time,” Blackie said, pinching the bridge of his nose. “Many of the Holy Race’s and the Crystallian race’s royal powers that were initially indifferent to the Eternal Realm have come for a piece of the action. Besides that, the Nebula Consortium has somehow helped Demon’s Gate become the human race’s first royal power. Now, even the Seven Luminaries Alliance fears Demon’s Gate.”

“Demon’s Gate has been promoted into a royal power?” Shi Feng was dumbfounded after hearing this.

In God’s Domain, powers couldn’t simply proclaim themselves an apex or royal power. They needed the God’s Domain Association’s recognition. Even the Holy Race’s and the Crystallian race’s various powers were no exception.

In Shi Feng’s previous life, Demon’s Gate was nowhere close to matching the Seven Luminaries Alliance, let alone becoming a royal power. Furthermore, even after the Seven Luminaries Alliance obtained an Epic Siege Weapon in his previous life, the God’s Domain Association still hadn’t recognize it as a royal power. Hence, he found it hard to believe Demon’s Gate could become a royal power simply by relying on the Nebula Consortium’s help.
