Abyss Summoner

Chen Feng’s figure was hazy in the shadows, and in front of it, the shadow had begun to twist. It was originally in a human shape, but now, faced with crisis, it transformed into the shapes of various other creatures.

Demon.

Devil.

And even some winged angels!

The shadow tried to find an opportunity to escape, but Chen Feng had already stepped into the Legendary Tier. The sacrificial energy he harnessed had reached an astonishing level, making any struggle by the shadow futile.

The shadow of Chen Feng’s body, like a predator lurking by the swamp, instantly covered the shadow. Visibly, the shadow began to tremble irregularly.

Chen Feng did not move at all, yet his shadow began to act on its own. Clearly, the shadow was attempting to devour the shadow’s power and fuse completely with Chen Feng.

Chen Feng closed his eyes, and everything around him was enveloped in darkness. In this dead silent dark world, time slipped by like sand between fingers, silently passing away bit by bit. Years were unable to shake the shadow in the slightest, rendering time insignificant in this devouring process.

One day passed in the blink of an eye.

The temperature difference at the end of the world could only be described as terrifying. During the day, it was over twenty degrees, but at night, it could suddenly drop to below freezing. Coupled with those terrifying mutant creatures around, for mortals, anywhere touched by night, outside the Order-built cities, was a forbidden zone.

But Chen Feng’s power was beyond what ordinary people could contend with. Like those officials long accustomed to high positions, he controlled the livelihood of millions, and just by sitting there, he exuded a shocking aura. Chen Feng was even more so. Having become legendary, even if he could hide his power, a small portion still overflowed around him.

Ordinary monsters couldn’t dodge fast enough, so why would they provoke Chen Feng and ask for trouble?

A night quietly passed.

The morning sunlight broke through the clouds and shone on Chen Feng’s body. In the cold air, Chen Feng stood suspended, his shadow no longer trembling at some unknown time. At this moment, he seemed ready for everything, fiercely clenching his fist!

Just as the fist clenched, the shadow at his feet violently fluctuated once again. Then, streams of pitch-black, chilling energy surged at Chen Feng’s feet, entwining his body like black pythons, eventually drilling entirely into the shadow through his feet.

In this dark world filled with exceedingly powerful dark attribute energy, it undoubtedly signaled to Chen Feng that he successfully completed the sacrifice!

As more and more dark attribute energy drilled into Chen Feng’s body, his skin gradually turned pitch-black, and his body became illusory as if it could disappear from this world at any moment.

Chen Feng merged into the surrounding dimension.

Stealth!

Through using stealth, one can quietly approach a monster from behind and perform various skills, such as sap, backstab, and ambush. Without stealth, the monster would turn to attack you.

This is shadow power. Within a short time, it hides the body in surrounding dark spaces. Since Chen Feng’s power had reached the Legendary Tier, without launching an attack, except for some special creatures with scouting abilities, ordinary Legendary creatures would be unable to detect his movements.

"Swish!"

As Chen Feng’s body completely twisted, he suddenly transformed into a stream of light and, when he reappeared, he was already ten meters away.

[Space Jump]

This is also a technique mastered by the shadow, able to break through space in an instant, with rapid speed to evade enemy attacks or launch an attack.

After casting Space Jump, the shadow’s density noticeably thinned, a clear sign of energy depletion. Chen Feng was not an adept speed-based stealth-er; evidently, there were some minor issues during the fusion process. Compared to the shadow, Chen Feng could only use Space Jump once.

In previous battles, the shadow could bestow Chen Feng with at least two jumps within a short time. Now, during the fusion, a portion of the shadow’s power naturally dissipated.

It’s like a skill cooldown; to jump again next time, he would need to wait for some time.

But this wasn’t bad at all. Just imagine, even if you relied on a wealthy woman, who bought you luxury cars and watches, yet didn’t grant you a cent in your hand. But now is different; even having left the embrace of this wealthy woman, you have millions in your account, which would certainly bring some peace of mind.

The time had already passed a whole day. Just as Chen Feng finished verifying the shadow’s power and was about to leave, his body suddenly stiffened, then his eyes began to scatter, like a person devoid of intelligence, without any awareness.

Misty visions appeared before Chen Feng’s eyes. His eyelids drooped, and he saw a phantom and misty illusion.

It was a gray, fragmented world where shadows of people occasionally flashed by. These people were incomplete, like memory fragments flashing continuously in Chen Feng’s mind.

There was a skinny young man, one that could be described as skin and bones. Before him lay two corpses. Judging by their faces, they seemed to be his parents or kin.

The young man seemed to be praying for something, but no Divine Spirit accepted his prayers. Foolishly, he knelt on the ground for two days and nights, only awakening when corpse spots appeared on the bodies. Hastily burying them, he left his hometown with a backpack.

Another scene struck him, the young man was covered in blood, and many corpses lay at his feet. These bodies had their throats cut, and thick blood flowed onto the ground. Around the corpses, there was a strange array, clearly indicating that the other party was performing some kind of forbidden summoning ritual.

The scene faded once more, and another new fragment appeared before Chen Feng’s eyes. It was a pure shadow, not the stealth exhibited by a rogue, but completely turned into dark energy. However, from the build, it was vaguely visible that the figure was the same young man as before.

The young man, transformed into a shadow, roamed the exceedingly harsh environment of the Abyss with astonishing speed. Whether Golden Tier or Legendary powerhouses, anyone who brushed past him would collapse to the ground, devoid of any life!

He held a dagger in his hand, and perhaps that was the real reason for his terrifying aura!

Dagger?

In the dream, Chen Feng frowned, and precisely at this moment, the illusion before his eyes began to violently shake, and everything in sight vanished one by one.

This dreadful change lasted a few seconds before Chen Feng reopened his eyes, feeling the light around him. He squinted, seemingly uncomfortable with his surroundings.

Everything that had just appeared might have been the shadow’s initial trace, a strong individual from an unknown dimension, who seemingly had a sorrowful past, causing his nature to gradually fall into darkness, becoming a monster walking in the Abyss.

After a few more seconds, Chen Feng’s expression suddenly turned somewhat strange because some additional memories emerged in his mind.

Memories!

After merging with the shadow, Chen Feng seemed to have inherited something. He quickly entered a meditative state, and immediately, a memory about the dagger appeared in his mind.

Zasman Dagger

This simple iron blade was created through the self-sacrifice of thirty-nine members of the Neserel Zasman Sect, giving its holder the power to transcend the fate of divine existences. Hostile to all divine entities, the Zasman members believed that mortals could overthrow gods through sheer brute force, turning powerful secret techniques into tangible forms through intense self-sacrifice.

After the Zasman Dagger was created, Jacob personally dispatched the entire sect for destruction, entrapping one hundred and forty-nine members in a large arena and slowly imploding them, reanimating them as Ghouls—forcing them to witness the fate of their companions in a mix of fear and abominable hunger. After this cruel feast, Jacob seized the weapon, eventually letting it fall into Bane’s hands before he became a god.

The Zasman Dagger is an evil dagger that can ignore the divine bonuses of a target’s defense level.

After the introduction of the dagger vanished, it was replaced by an area devoid of any light, inhabited by countless monsters. Silver Peak Demons swarmed past, and it was an area abandoned by sunlight, where Undead, Demons, and other dark creatures intertwined, devouring, slaughtering.

And deep within a pitch-black cavern, a Skeleton lay on the ground, gripping a familiar weapon in its hand, which was precisely the dagger Chen Feng had seen in the illusion.

Perfectly engraving these memories in his mind, Chen Feng couldn’t help but show a hint of astonishment on his face.

The gain was much more than he imagined!

Not only did he inherit the shadow’s abilities, but more importantly, he discovered traces of a Divine Artifact.

A dagger capable of Godslaying, wielded by mortal hands!

Divine Artifact!

This was a weapon more terrifying than a Sub-divine Artifact, with its imbued power already reaching a certain extreme!

For any dimension or creature, a Divine Artifact is filled with immense allure. If a Sub-divine Artifact is like an orange weapon with +10 enhancements, then a Divine Artifact, without a doubt, is one level higher, already at the +15 stage!

The Endless Sword, as a Sub-divine Artifact, possesses the power to slay legends. It’s conceivable how terrifying the power of a true Divine Artifact would be!

"The trace of the Godslaying Dagger is in the Abyss, where the environment is harsh without a hint of sunlight, all shrouded in darkness. This darkness is an important clue."

"The monsters there are too horrifying, even the illusions give me a sense of trepidation. Clearly, aside from Legendary Creatures, there are even Epic Level existences within the cavern!"

"With my current strength, I simply cannot explore it!"

Chen Feng regretfully rubbed his temples. A Divine Artifact is crucial, but you have to have a life to use it. Even if I currently possess the ability to enter the Abyss, rashly exploring such a cavern is still a path to self-destruction.

"The dagger has been left untouched for so long; surely it will not be discovered in the short term."

"Rather than risk exploring, it’s better to wait until my strength advances further, then go retrieve that Divine Artifact!"

As thoughts swirled, Chen Feng felt an emptiness and pain in his head. He was self-aware that with his current Legendary rank strength, he couldn’t lay hands on a real Divine Artifact, thus he needed some time to wait.

Wait...

For the Divine Artifact to surface!
