Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There were still 53 bolts of lightning hidden within the dark clouds.

That meant that Jiang Feng still had to survive 53 more times of inhumane pain.

Whether his evolution could succeed would be up to his willpower.

If his willpower was too weak, it might be possible for his consciousness to shatter during this evolution, causing it all to fail.

Crackle!

There was another bolt of lightning blasting from above, ignoring the shell of the fire cocoon, and immediately blasting him.

He called out in pain as his consciousness wavered.

‘I cannot fall here! I have to succeed! There are tens of thousands of Shifters waiting for me out there!’ Jiang Feng thought to himself as he took out the Lianyao Flask, looking for things that could block the lightning.

Very quickly, he managed to find an item within the Lianyao Flask. It was an orb and it was called the Orb of Lightning Resistance, and it could make him immune to 50% of the lightning damage.

While he did not know where he got it, it would be extremely helpful for him.

With the Orb of Lightning Resistance in hand, a portion of the lightning was absorbed by the orb while the other portion continued to torture his body and mind.

While the pain was still there, it was greatly reduced thanks to the Orb of Lightning Resistance, and he let out a sigh of relief.

With the dark flames and lightning continuing to purify him, the blood in his body began to change. It had slowly turned from red into gold in color.

What he did not expect was that the Orb of Lightning Resistance within his hands was beginning to turn soft because of the scorching heat from the dark flames to the point where it was melting.

The power from the lightning continued to surge into the Orb of Lightning Resistance he was holding.

‘Hm? Maybe I can use the Orb of Lightning Resistance to create equipment to block the Lightning Lustration!’

Looking at the Orb of Lightning Resistance within his hands that was becoming deformed, he did not dare waste time as he quickly took out some very rare ores and materials. When the Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire appeared in his hands, he began to melt all the equipment.

Once the Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire appeared and had absorbed some of the heat, it then instantly melted all the materials into liquid.

He had the liquid envelop the outside of the Orb of Lightning Resistance as he began to forge them.

As he forged it, he quickly fused the power of the Law of Chaos and the six great Demesnes within him into it.

To him, the only option is to make the best, or he would not be wasting his effort.

He kept on using the Ghost-White Heavenly Ice-Fire to purify the orb within his hand, burning away all the impurities.

As it continued to be purified, the speed at which the orb absorbed the lightning became faster and faster. One-fifth of the power from the lightning had entered the orb.

The orb, which was originally dark blue in color, slowly became purple as black patterns appeared on it. The patterns were all bulging as if they were some kind of blood vessel.

Rumble...

As the Orb of Lightning Resistance began to take form, another layer of dark clouds appeared in the sky as another Lustration was being prepared.

“Er... looks like this equipment’s level is at least at Post-Creation Absolute-Treasure level. Otherwise, it would not be able to cause a Lustration. Looks like I’m going to be quite busy!” Jiang Feng listened to the thunder rolling in the sky, and he knew that another Lustration by Lightning was coming.

And this time, it was coming for the Orb of Lightning Resistance in his hand.

But the Lustration was not as powerful as the one that he was experiencing. It was only about the size of his leg, so it would be quite easy for him to handle.

“Smithing!” historical

Once all the impurities within the Orb of Lightning Resistance had been removed, he then used Smithing on the orb.

Ding. System Prompt: Congratulations for creating the Pre-Creation Absolute Artifact, “Chaos Lightning Orb.” As you are the first player to have created a Pre-Creation Absolute Artifact, you have received one Chaos Stone, one Post-Creation Absolute Artifact, 100,000 pp, and 10,000 reputation points.

Ding. System Prompt: As you have created a Pre-Creation Absolute Artifact, an announcement will be made in Divine Dominion. Will you hide your name?

“No!”

The Divine Dominion’s announcement was something that came just in time. He could use the public announcement to increase the morale of the members of the Shifters.

He knew that because of the repression from the gods and buddhas, the morale of the players from the Shifters was really low. Some of the players were starting to consider leaving the Shifters race. That was because a life that was being targeted and them having to avoid and hide was too difficult, and that was not the reason why they started playing the game in the first place.

Ding. Divine Dominion Announcement: Congratulations to “Shifter Emperor Jiang Feng” for creating the Pre-Creation Absolute Artifact “Chaos Lightning Orb.” As he is the first player to have created a Pre-Creation Absolute Artifact, he has received one Chaos Stone, one Post-Creation Absolute Artifact, 100,000 pp, and 10,000 reputation points.

***

When the Divine Dominion’s public announcement was made, all the players in the Divine Dominion Continent, Silvermoon and Dragonquarry were in an uproar. The players from the Shifters faction were crying out in joy.

In a city within Dragonquarry, a group of players carefully dodged the Celestial Soldiers as they went into a restaurant.

Once they were in a private room, a player drank the wine that was already on the table.

Bang!

After he was done, he then smashed the wine cup onto the ground and said angrily, “Damn! I have already been killed by the Celestial Soldiers four times! I don’t want to continue like this! I am going to change factions soon. If this continues, I won’t be able to play this game anymore!”

Xiao Feiyu looked at his angry captain Chu Kuangren as he sat on the bench without saying anything.

Next to him, there were two more women and another man, with the eyes of the female players slightly red in color.

When they joined the Shifters faction, it was mostly because they were following Jiang Feng. The Shifter Emperor’s name was enough to strike fear into the hearts of all, and he had such power that when he appeared, the entire world was going to be embroiled in chaos.

He kept on replaying the image of the Shifter Emperor protecting the Ancient City, the image of how Jiang Feng fought everyone with Deicide in his hand as he stepped on the Somersault Cloud. He remembered how Jiang Feng and Sun Wukong fought in the Heavenly Palace. He could still feel the passion within him.

‘Is this where I’m going to give up? Shifter Emperor, where are you? Can you come out and say something?’ Xiao Feiyu raised his cup of wine and looked out of the window. He felt a sense of regret as he looked out of the window and at the players from the other factions riding on their steeds flying past them.

Ding. Divine Dominion Announcement: Congratulations to “Shifter Emperor Jiang Feng” for creating the Pre-Creation Absolute Artifact “Chaos Lightning Orb.” As he is the first player to have created a Pre-Creation Absolute Artifact, he has received one Chaos Stone, one Post-Creation Absolute Artifact, 100,000 pp, and 10,000 reputation points.

When all five of them were silent, an announcement made by the system suddenly entered their ears.

The moment that they heard the voice, all five of them were instantly stunned.

“Ah... The Shifter Emperor didn’t give up on us!”

The two female players had been hiding every day like rats as they would get killed by the Celestial Soldiers every time they were caught. They were already filled with despair as they were stressed about this every day. The announcement let them see hope once again, and they burst out crying as the pressure was released.

“Haha! The Shifter Emperor’s back! Don’t give up, everybody! The Shifter Emperor will lead us, taking down the Heavenly Palace! Destroying the Leiyin Temple!” Xiao Feiyu brushed his tears away as he smiled excitedly.

They had already lost faith, but with one announcement their self-confidence had returned. That was the Shifter Emperor’s Charisma.

When faith remained, passion persisted!
