Chapter 2793 – World Authority
The golden longsword covered in crimson divine runes sitting inside his bag was definitely the dream weapon of all Swordsmen.
So, that’s why the Light of Two Worlds was rumored to have been destroyed and no longer existed in G.o.d’s Domain in the past. s.h.i.+ Feng couldn’t help his elation as he inspected the longsword in his bag. As it turns out, the weapon can’t be obtained in the modern G.o.d’s Domain but only in the ancient G.o.d’s Domain.

Created by the Ancient G.o.d of Light. The Light of Two Worlds possesses the power to cut all things. The Divine Power Sources within the weapon have been destroyed by an inexplicable power. However, as the weapon itself is still intact, it is possible to fully repair it by injecting new Divine Power Sources. (Divine Power Source injected – 0/2)
Despite being the prototype of the Void Breaker, the Light of Two Worlds had still managed to rank number one among G.o.d’s Domain’s Thirty-six Famed Swords. One could easily imagine how powerful the weapon was. Although the Light of Two Worlds was currently incomplete, just the Basic Attributes it provided already made it far superior to even the Abyssal Blade. It undoubtedly had the highest Attack Power out of all the one-handed swords s.h.i.+ Feng had ever seen. Not to mention, there were also the outrageous Skills the weapon carried.
Just by wielding the Light of Two Worlds, a Tier 4 Swordsman would be capable of exchanging one move with a Tier 5 existence. This was a feat that was impossible with ordinary Fragmented Legendary Weapons.
However, while the Light of Two Worlds was incredibly powerful, its usage condition was also astonis.h.i.+ngly high.
Without the several Fragmented Legendary items on s.h.i.+ Feng, he wouldn’t be able to equip the weapon.
Meanwhile, the Light of Two Worlds’s appearance could also be considered heaven-sent.
Now that s.h.i.+ Feng had reached Level 140, both the Twilight Blade and Killing Ray could no longer keep up with his level. Hence, he had mainly been fighting with only the Abyssal Blade all this time, with the Twilight Blade and Killing Ray as support.
However, now that he had the Light of Two Worlds, he could arm both his main and sub arms with adequate weapons. In fact, even if he failed to collect the two remaining fragments of Solomon’s Sword, he wouldn’t have to worry about finding a replacement weapon.
Moreover, even if he did manage to complete Solomon’s Sword, the complete Light of Two Worlds wouldn’t be the slightest bit inferior to it. The only problem was that Divine Power Sources were incredibly hard to find. In fact, s.h.i.+ Feng had only ever heard rumors of Divine Power Sources; he had never actually seen one before.
This was because Divine Power Sources were far more valuable than G.o.d Crystals. They were the power sources of G.o.ds, and they carried incredible strength. The value of a Divine Power Source was comparable to a Legendary item. Meanwhile, the Light of Two Worlds actually required two Divine Power Sources.
It seems I’ll need to have the Guild investigate Divine Power Sources. Looking at the Light of Two Worlds, s.h.i.+ Feng inwardly resolved to repair the weapon, no matter the cost.
Legendary Weapons were far too rare in G.o.d’s Domain. Now that one had appeared before him, it would be a huge waste if he did not try to repair it. Meanwhile, after seeing s.h.i.+ Feng had finished sorting through the loot, Lifeless Thorn and the others approached him with curious eyes.
“Commander, did anything good drop this time?” Looking at s.h.i.+ Feng, Solitary Nine asked in a whisper, “Did a Legendary item really drop?”
They had just defeated an unrestrained Tier 4 Infant Dragon. If s.h.i.+ Feng said nothing good dropped, n.o.body would believe him. Solitary Nine was very curious to find out just how excellent the Infant Golden Dragon’s loot was. After all, there was still no news of any player obtaining a Legendary item, so n.o.body could tell how powerful Legendary items were.
If a Legendary item had truly appeared among the items dropped, they would’ve hit a huge jackpot.
“Aren’t you guys taking Legendary items too lightly? There’s no way a Legendary item can drop from a monster.” s.h.i.+ Feng smiled and shook his head when he saw the excited expressions of Solitary Nine and the others. He then said vaguely, “However, while there is no Legendary item in the loot, there are several items whose value is comparable to Legendary items. To me, at least, these items are almost as valuable as actual Legendary items.”
He had no intention of telling everyone the specifics of the items dropped this time.
This was because the loot was truly astonis.h.i.+ng. Aside from the Light of Two Worlds, there were two other items that could easily cause a sensation among G.o.d’s Domain’s various powers.
One of the two was a Magic Array Design. Although the design only recorded a Master Magic Array, this Master Magic Array was more valuable than even some Grandmaster Magic Arrays.
This was because this magic array existed only in the ancient G.o.d’s Domain.
The Twelve-array Magic World!
This magic array could increase the density of all Mana within its area of influence by 200% and players’ Mana perception by 100%. Although it only had two specific functions, if brought back to the modern G.o.d’s Domain, it would definitely stand at the peak among all magic arrays in existence.
As for the second item, it was a Mysterious Flame!
Be it in the ancient G.o.d’s Domain or modern G.o.d’s Domain, Mysterious Flames were incredibly rare items, especially Tier 3 Mysterious Flames and above. A Tier 3 Mysterious Flame was just as rare as a Fragmented Legendary item.
Meanwhile, the Mysterious Flame the Infant Golden Dragon dropped was the Tier 4 Mysterious Flame h.e.l.lfire!
A Tier 4 Mysterious Flame was something s.h.i.+ Feng had only ever heard about in G.o.d’s Domain.
According to rumor, after reaching Tier 4, Mysterious Flames would all possess astonis.h.i.+ng power and a variety of incredible effects. Take the Soul Fire, for example. It was a Mysterious Flame capable of annihilating a player’s soul, leaving the said player with no choice but to delete their accounts and restart from scratch. Such a feat was impossible for most Tier 5 existences.
Moreover, even if a Tier 5 existence had the ability to wipe out a player’s soul, it would only work on low-tier players. As players reached higher tiers, their souls would also grow stronger and become more resistant to destruction. After a certain point, even a Tier 6 G.o.d wielding the power to annihilate the Immortal Souls of players wouldn’t be able to force the said player to delete their account.
Nevertheless, the Tier 4 Soul Fire could easily annihilate even the souls of Tier 3 players. Only after reaching Tier 4 would players become somewhat resistant to the Soul Fire’s strength. This was also why the corrosive effect of the mysterious NPC’s Soul Chain had weakened considerably after s.h.i.+ Feng had reached Tier 4, allowing s.h.i.+ Feng to live for much longer.
Now, he had obtained a complete Tier 4 Mysterious Flame. It was different from the incomplete Soul Fire that he had gained through the mysterious NPC’s soul beast.
The other dropped items were similarly very precious. Out of the 100-plus items dropped, over 30 were Legendary materials such as Dragon Claws, Dragon Teeth, Dragon Scales, and Dragon Blood. There were also over a dozen Master Recipes and Epic Equipment Forging Designs. The rest were mainly Inferior Legendary materials and Level 150 Epic Weapons and Equipment.
Two materials stood out among all that bounty
—both Inferior Divine Artifact ranked materials.
The Dragon Eye and the Dragon Crystal!
These were the quest items Angelica Teresa needed.
Meanwhile, after hearing s.h.i.+ Feng’s words, Lifeless Thorn and Solitary Nine stopped asking questions. They understood that the items dropped this time were extraordinary and could not be revealed. Moreover, s.h.i.+ Feng had already answered the main question plaguing their minds—there was no Legendary item among the dropped items.
“Yu Luo, you guys start resurrecting the others. We’ll return to Meteorite City afterward,” s.h.i.+ Feng said to the team’s healers as he looked at the dead Skyflare members’ corpses scattered around the cavern.
Once everyone was alive again, s.h.i.+ Feng opened a Spatial Gate in the direction of Meteorite City. Thanks to the Spatial Gate, the return trip, which should’ve originally taken a dozen hours or so by Flying s.h.i.+p, only took four hours, astonis.h.i.+ng Skyflare’s members.
If not for the Spatial Gate’s long Cooldown and short duration, it would’ve definitely been considered a G.o.dly Skill in G.o.d’s Domain.
After returning to Meteorite City, s.h.i.+ Feng completed all his transactions with Lionheart. Aside from the Crimson Dragon Flying s.h.i.+p, Lionheart also purchased an additional 20 Crystals of Souls and 100 drops of Soul Water, which netted s.h.i.+ Feng an additional six million Magic Crystals.
Lionheart also used three million pieces of Mana Ore, which was treated as equivalent to 750,000 Magic Crystals, to exchange for another five Crystals of Souls. Although the Mana Ore’s price had been slightly inflated, this was unavoidable, as purchasing Mana Ore in bulk was incredibly difficult. Purchasing too many would naturally raise the ore’s market value. However, for s.h.i.+ Feng, getting three million pieces of Mana Ore for the price of just 750,000 Magic Crystals was already a bargain. After the transactions with Lionheart, s.h.i.+ Feng pa.s.sed 30 Crystals of Souls and 1,000 drops of Soul Water to Yan Ya for her to conduct future transactions with the Skyflare adventurer team. At the same time, he also tasked her with secretly purchasing some of G.o.d’s Domain’s rare items.
Finally, after settling all his business affairs, s.h.i.+ Feng handed the Dragon Eye and the Dragon Crystal to Angelica Teresa, who was still recuperating from her injuries. As soon as he handed over these two items, not only did Angelica’s Favorability of him increase by 100 points, but she also gave him a Tier 5 Legacy Guidance she had obtained from a Sword Saint.
s.h.i.+ Feng was a little surprised by this reward.
Is this the hidden reward for not bringing Angelica Teresa on the raid? While the Infant Golden Dragon had indeed dropped a lot of excellent items, it hadn’t dropped any Legacy items. This situation had rendered s.h.i.+ Feng quite speechless at the time. Now, Angelica Teresa directly handed him the Legacy Guidance he wished for dearly.
After the conversation with Angelica, s.h.i.+ Feng immediately received a system notification.
System: Congratulations! You have completed the Inferior Mythical Quest “World’s Choice.” You have gained World Authority +2.
System: You have obtained World Authority. World Authority currently at Level 1. Please feel the specific effects of World Authority on your own.
As soon as the system notification appeared, an indistinct chain became visible around s.h.i.+ Feng’s body from the void. A moment later, this chain suddenly disintegrated, and he immediately felt the world around him becoming much clearer than before. He could even sense that his intimacy with the world of the ancient G.o.d’s Domain had improved slightly; the world was no longer as hostile toward him as before.
So, these are the effects of World Authority? s.h.i.+ Feng was astonished when he sensed the changes to his body.
His affinity with the magic elements was at least 50% better than before. His perception of his Mana’s operating principle had also improved significantly. After careful observation, he noticed that the layer of white mist that hindered his perception had thinned out by roughly 30%.
With such a tremendous improvement, his chances of constructing a Tier 5 Mana Body would increase by at least 20%-at least ten times more than what a Legendary item could provide.
Meteorite City, Silver Hotel:
After spending half a day experiencing the benefits of having World Authority, s.h.i.+ Feng decided to take a break.
I’ve already made major strides in my Mana control in merely half a day of experimenting. At this rate, my control over Mana can probably reach the Advanced Master standard in just half a month. s.h.i.+ Feng looked at the time in astonishment.
Initially, he had estimated that he would take three or four months to reach the Advanced Master standard for Mana control. Now, he would need only half a month to accomplish this feat. The amount of time he could save with World Authority was astonis.h.i.+ng.
After reaching Tier 4, what was most important to players would no longer be weapons and equipment but their control over Mana. The stronger a Tier 4 player’s Mana control was, the easier using Skills and Spells would be. They would also have an easier time constructing their Tier 5 Mana Body.
From what he knew, one’s Mana control needed to be at the Advanced Master standard at the very minimum to construct a Tier 5 Mana Body.
In other words, so long as his Mana control reached the Advanced Master standard, he could begin attempting to construct a new Mana Body!
“Commander, it’s almost time,” Lifeless Thorn said as he entered the room.
“Okay. I’ve finished all my business here already. We can go now.” s.h.i.+ Feng nodded. Afterward, s.h.i.+ Feng, Lifeless Thorn, and Solitary Nine went in secret to a forest several thousand yards away from Meteorite City and met up with Yu Luo, who had been waiting there for quite some time now.
“Guild Leader Black Flame, will we really be able to return?” Yu Luo couldn’t help asking as she counted down the time.
She had tried all sorts of methods to leave the ancient G.o.d’s Domain, yet none of them had succeeded. Although there was the system notification’s a.s.surance this time, she still felt a little doubtful.
“Relax. The system won’t lie to us,” s.h.i.+ Feng said, chuckling when he saw the anxious look on Yu Luo’s face.
Shortly after s.h.i.+ Feng finished speaking, the system’s timer of one natural day struck zero. Immediately, the s.p.a.ce around the four shattered, forming four small s.p.a.ce-time tears. An invisible force then pushed them into these s.p.a.ce-time tears.
In the blink of an eye, s.h.i.+ Feng’s group of four disappeared from the quiet forest as if they never existed here in the first place.
