"Such incredible magic power!" stared in disbelief at the Dark Bible floating in midair.

In the past, the Dark Bible had also emanated a considerable amount of pressure, but compared to now, it was like comparing heaven and earth. Dark mist now wreathed the book, and the power of darkness had become so dense it was visible to the naked eye.

At that moment, Xia Lian, whose complexion was quite pale, gave a light wave of her hand. The Dark Bible hovering in the air appeared in 's grasp in the blink of an eye.

"That's done. This is the extent of what I can repair. Whether you can fully restore the Dark Bible from here on out will depend on your own luck and ability. As for Morok's Ring, don't use it lightly — doing so will accelerate the accumulation of dark energy within it."

After Xia Lian finished speaking, she waved her staff once more. felt the world spin around him, and in the next instant he appeared in the plaza outside the Tower of Stargazing, drawing the attention of numerous players in the plaza who turned to look at the suddenly materialized figure.

"Way to kick someone out in a hurry." held the Dark Bible in his hands and swept his gaze across the crowd. Well over a hundred players were staring fixedly at him, their eyes brimming with greed. This drew a bitter smile from deep within — fortunately, he was wearing a black cloak, so his identity remained hidden.

He immediately stowed the Dark Bible away and pulled out a guild return scroll, beginning to read it.

On the plaza of Black Wing City, the players watching had all recognized the extraordinary nature of the Dark Bible in his hands. But seeing him start channeling the return scroll, they were so frustrated their teeth ached. Fighting openly inside Black Wing City carried extremely severe penalties, so they could only watch helplessly as departed.

Stone Forest Town, 's base.

The moment returned to the guild, he immediately found a lounge and carefully retrieved the Dark Bible from his backpack.

Dark Bible — a fragmentary Legendary item, destroyed during the Great Calamity. Its internal core magic array had been restored through the Source of Space-Time. As long as the other scattered fragments are gathered, all power can be restored, commanding all demonic creatures and becoming the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons.

Skill 1, Demon Summoning — through the power of darkness, opens a Demon Gate to summon a demon that is one rank and fifteen levels above the holder (maximum rank cannot exceed fifth rank). The summoned demon can be commanded by the holder for six hours. Cooldown: 150 minutes.

Skill 2, Dark Gate — allows teleportation into the Dark Cavern, or from the Dark Cavern to the outside world. A maximum of twenty people can be teleported at once. Cooldown: one day.

Skill 3, Power of Darkness — can reinforce a player through dark energy, granting them the power of darkness. Maximum reinforcement capacity: 1,200 people. For each person reinforced, the holder receives one unit of Source of Darkness.

Skill 4, Light of Darkness — saturates the entire body with the power of darkness, boosting all attributes by 100%, reducing all skill cooldowns by 30%, and increasing damage by 50%. Duration equals the number of Source of Darkness units multiplied by 0.5 seconds. Cooldown: five hours. (Power of Darkness effects do not stack; maximum reinforcement target is a fifth-rank class.)

Skill 5, Demon Sovereign — Passive: All dominated demonic creatures gain a 30% boost to base attributes; all hostile demonic creatures within a 1,000-yard radius have their base attributes forcibly reduced by 30%. Active: 10% chance to control a demonic creature whose level does not exceed the holder's by 30 and whose rank does not exceed theirs by two (maximum fifth rank). Can control up to three creatures at once. Duration: two hours. Cooldown: five minutes.

"Now this really is the master of demonic creatures." looked at the Dark Bible's attribute description, his heart surging with wild joy.

It was still only a fragmentary Legendary item, yet in terms of sheer attributes, it had already surpassed ordinary Legendary fragments.

Demon Summoning alone could produce three demons, which would bring tremendous convenience to the quests he planned to take on. And with the Demon Sovereign skill, he could directly control six demons, forming a full demonic squad.

If it could be fully restored, it was easy to imagine — he would be able to field a powerful demon army. At that point, it would likely rival the Evil Demon Army controlled by the , and he wouldn't have to worry about being hunted by human forces.

"Now the Power of Darkness cap has risen from 600 to 1,200. I can expand the Black God Legion after all." looked at the Power of Darkness and thought to himself.

With 's recent recruitment drive, the number of experts was growing rapidly. But because of the previous cap on Power of Darkness, the Black God Legion had been maintained at five hundred members. Now it could be expanded to a full thousand, becoming a true thousand-man legion. And with the Dark Bible upgraded, the burst skill granted by Power of Darkness would be enhanced as well.

The thought of a full thousand people all wielding a powerful burst skill sent a thrill through him. In battle, that would be absolutely terrifying combat power.

After all, even ten years from now, burst skills were exceedingly rare. Not every expert had the chance to acquire one, let alone in the present era. Right now, even a first-rate guild would consider it a good achievement to field a hundred-person burst squad. A thousand-person burst legion — even a superpower would struggle to manage that.

Just as was about to begin selecting new Black God Legion members from the guild roster, Bai Qingxue suddenly contacted him.

"Guild Master, I just received an invitation from the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion. They want you and several of our core leaders from to attend the Stormwind Tournament being held tomorrow. They've also directly granted our guild five qualifying spots — no need to go through the preliminary rounds; we're guaranteed entry into the main competition." Bai Qingxue forwarded the invitation directly to and spoke at a measured pace.

"They want to participate in the Stormwind Tournament too?" was mildly surprised.

In his previous life, the Stormwind Tournament had been one of the most renowned competitions in all of the Divine Realm — and also one of the most accessible for ordinary players to witness and engage with. It was organized entirely by the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.

But not just any guild could receive an invitation. Generally, one needed the recognition of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, and on top of that, be a major guild within the host region. Due to venue capacity restrictions, the number of guilds that could attend was limited to a total of one hundred. Invited guilds were at least second-rate, and the remaining spots were fought over by other guilds in the area.

Because this tournament was an excellent opportunity to raise a guild's profile within the empire, the competition among second-rate and lower guilds for the remaining spots was always fierce whenever it was held.

And this Stormwind Tournament — because the Divine Realm was simply too vast and the number of players entering it had never been higher — hosting it in every nation wasn't feasible. In the early days of the Divine Realm, the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion could only hold it within the major empires. But as the Pavilion grew and expanded, it would gradually select some of the stronger kingdoms to host the grand event as well.

It was thanks to this very tournament that he had learned of the many powerful experts in the Star Moon Kingdom and the major empires.

He hadn't expected that in this life, the guild he'd established would also receive an invitation.

But thinking about it, it made sense. now had a branch in the , and as the top guild in the Star Moon Kingdom, an invitation was only natural.

"Guild Master, this is a wonderful opportunity for to raise our profile in the . And since this is our first invitation, you absolutely need to be there as our leader to represent us." Bai Qingxue looked at and spoke with complete seriousness.
