Chapter 1385 â Repairing the Bible of Darkness
The pitch-black ring was simple and unadorned. Even if a player picked it up, it wouldnât be surprising if they sold it to an NPC as trash.
However, when Shi Feng took out the ring, Sharlyn was stunned for a moment while Shi Feng felt the previously calm Mana in the hall rampage. Very quickly, however, peace returned to Star-Moon Hall.
This was the first time Shi Feng had seen Sharlyn lose her composure.
âWhere did you get this?â Sharlyn asked, her joy and excitement lighting up her eyes as she stared at the pitch-black ring in Shi Fengâs hand.
âA secret room in the Orc Palace,â Shi Feng answered truthfully. Seeing Sharlynâs reaction, he could tell that she recognized the item, and he could not help his growing excitement.
If even Sharlyn hadnât known the ringâs identity, it would have likely collected dust in his Warehouse for a very long time.
After all, unless he obtained an Identification Skill that was even more powerful than Omniscient Eyes, he wouldnât learn more about the ring. Such a Skill wasnât easily obtained. However, if an NPC recognized the item, he could learn about it even if he couldnât analyze it.
âSo, thatâs the case. That old bastard really did have it.â Sharlyn smiled. With a wave of her hand, the pitch-black ring flew out of Shi Fengâs palm and to Sherlynâs. Slowly, she said, âThis is the Ring of Eternity. It had originally belonged to the God Slayer, but looking at it now, it seems to be damaged beyond repair.â
âDamaged beyond repair?â Shi Fengâs heart sank.
He had hoped that this ring was something amazing, yet it turned out to be beyond salvation. It was no wonder why Omniscient Eyes couldnât analyze it. After all, it was only natural that he couldnât appraise a worthless item.
âDonât be too disappointed. Although it is useless now, the ringâs materials are quite special,â Sharlyn said. She couldnât help but giggle when she saw the dejected expression on Shi Fengâs face. âAfter all, this ring used to be a Godly Relic. The Heart of the World had been its core material. I believe many people will be interested in this ring if you can get a Craftsman Forger to make a new one.â
When Shi Feng heard the words âHeart of the World,â his breathing quickened slightly.
The Heart of the World was the foundation of a world. Many of Godâs Domainâs Otherworlds, for example, had evolved from a Heart of the World.
âIf you donât have a use for this ring, Iâd be willing to buy it. I can offer you 200 units of Seven Luminaries Crystals or the Eternium Mine thatâs near White River City,â Sharlyn said, smiling as she toyed around with the Ring of Eternity in her hand.
Sharlynâs offer was sorely tempting.
He had never expected the woman to be so generous and wealthy.
Two hundred units of Seven Luminaries Crystal was no small amount. It would take a first-rate Guild months, if not years, to gather so much. Meanwhile, the Eternium mine close to White River City was also quite famous.
Shi Feng hadnât thought that the mine actually belonged to SharlynâŠ
Eternium Ore was a very rare supportive ore. It was also used to forge Magisteel Ingots, which could increase oneâs success rate when forging weapons and equipment.
Many Guilds had thought of claiming the mine for themselves in the past. Unfortunately, the mine was under the kingdomâs supervision. The NPCs guarding it were all Level 180 and above. It was impossible to claim.
If he could obtain the Eternium mine, the Candlelight Trading Firmâs forgers would have a much easier time when crafting weapons and equipment above Level 50.
âLady Sharlyn, if I wish to make a new ring, must I get the help of a Craftsman Forger?â Shi Feng asked.
Although Sharlynâs offer was tempting, the Heart of the World was similarly precious. Encountering the material again in the future would be nearly impossible.
âIt doesnât have to be a Craftsman, but Craftsman Forgers are the only ones who can use the material to its fullest potential. If you asked a Master or Grandmaster Forger to craft the new ring, the final product will be very low quality. It might not even be worth 50 units of Seven Luminaries Crystals,â Sharlyn said, smiling at Shi Feng. âYou need to think this through. How about I make you another offer? The power of darkness in your body has already become considerably dense. In exchange for this ring, Iâll help you partially restore the Bible of Darkness. Itâll become a little easier to retrain Molochâs Ringâs devouring effect.â
âHelp me repair the Bible of Darkness?â Shi Feng was slightly astonished. He had never imagined that Sharylyn would be so interested in the Ring of Eternity, so much so that sheâd offer to help him repair the Bible of Darkness, albeit partially. Immediately, he answered, âAlright. Iâll have to trouble you to help me repair the Bible of Darkness, then.â
He had rushed to complete his Tier 2 promotion precisely because he was worried about Molochâs Ringâs devouring effect. Now that a solution to this problem had presented itself, he had to take advantage of it. After all, he still had other matters to deal with. He didnât have the spare time to quest and repair the Bible of Darkness.
Meanwhile, he had other methods of obtaining Seven Luminaries Crystals. As for the mine, Manatite veins were far more valuable than Eternium veins. After all, Manatite Ore could be used to produce the Elementium Ingot, another item that could increase forging success rates. Moreover, Manatite veins produced Magic Crystals.
As for forging a new ring, there were only a few Craftsman ranked Forgers throughout Godâs Domain. Finding one and convincing them to help was simply impossible for a player of his level. Even if he got the chance, it wouldnât happen for a long time. Rather than letting the Heart of the World collect dust in his Warehouse, he might as well benefit from it now. It would also save him the trouble of completing a quest that was at least Epic rank.
âYouâve made a wise decision. Otherwise, youâd have to travel to the Broken Canyon,â Sharlyn said, chuckling as she stored the Ring of Eternity. She then said, âFollow me.â
Hearing Sharlyn mention the Broken Canyon, Shi Feng shuddered.
He hadnât realized that heâd have to go to such a dangerous map to repair the Bible of DarknessâŠ
The Broken Canyon was a Rank 2 forbidden land for humans, only second to the Ruined Mountain Range. In the Ruined Mountain Range, players were guaranteed to die, while in the Broken Canyon, they might survive one out of ten visits. Moreover, theyâd only have such hope after reaching Tier 3.
Countless peak experts had visited the Broken Canyon in the past. While some had grown stronger, the majority of these peak experts had returned with their characters crippled. Just being able to walk out of the Broken Canyon alive made them experts among experts. As for obtaining something from inside the Broken Canyon, only peak experts had any hope of achieving such a feat.
Under Sharlynâs lead, Shi Feng quickly arrived before a Teleportation Magic Array inside the Star-Moon Hall.
When the teleportation array activated, Shi Fengâs vision blurred. In the next moment, he found himself inside a hall that resembled the night sky. The beautiful view was mesmerizing.
âThis isâŠthe Stargazing Tower?!â Shi Feng was slightly surprised. He hadnât expected White River Cityâs library to have a teleportation array connected to the Stargazing Tower.
The Stargazing Tower was in Blackwing City. Without an entry pass, entering the city was impossible.
Under Sharlynâs lead, Shi Feng returned to the Weeping Moon Pavilion once again. He suddenly felt far more limber.
âThe Weeping Moon Pavilion has a powerful suppression effect on the power of darkness. If we repair the Bible of Darkness here, the Demon Kings wonât discover the change,â Sharlyn explained. âAlright, take out the Bible of Darkness and place it on the magic array below the water mirror.â
Nodding, Shi Feng retrieved the Bible of Darkness from his bag and set it on the carved magic array beneath the water mirror on the ceiling.
The magic array in the center of the Weeping Moon Pavilion looked ancient. Despite the being inactive, Shi Feng could feel its archaic aura.
As Sharlyn walked up to the magic array, a dazzling staff suddenly appeared in her hand. She pointed the staff at the magic array and commanded, âSpace-time Source, activate!â
Suddenly, the Mana density in the Weeping Moon Pavilion began to grow restless. The magic array then lit up, and horrific amounts of Mana surged towards the array, stealing the strength from Shi Fengâs legs as he fell on his rear.
Shi Feng was stupefied as he stared up at the sevenfold magic array that formed beneath the water mirror. This magic array was many times more powerful than any Tier 6 God-ranked Spell he had seen before.
Abruptly, the Bible of Darkness started to flip around as layer upon layer of pitch-black chains appeared around the book, binding it. However, as if time had begun to rewind, the chains began to vanish.

When only five chains remained, the magic array froze as a violent surge of Mana exploded in a shockwave.
Not daring to be careless, Shi Feng activated Absolute Domain, becoming immune to all damage.
When the shockwave struck Shi Feng, although he did not receive any damage, he grew faint for a moment.
Meanwhile, in the center of the magic array, the originally tattered Bible of Darkness seemed newer as it hovered in the air. The surrounding Mana density pulled a shudder from Shi Feng.
