The teleportation array inscribed on the floor of the single-masted sailboat's lounge in the Sea of Death suddenly flared with brilliant light, and a figure materialized. It was Shi Feng, having just left the Ancient God Library.
"That was close!"
Shi Feng looked at the thick, ancient tome in his hand and recalled the sudden frenzy of the stone statue guardians. His heart raced with lingering fear.
Just a sliver. He had been just a sliver away from crossing the line.
He never imagined those stone statue guardians could enter a berserk state. The power of their longspears was absolutely at the Tier 3 level. A dozen of them striking together could have instantly killed him.
Although it had been incredibly perilous, seeing the ancient book safely in his hands, Shi Feng couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement as he examined it.
The books within the Ancient God Library were treasures throughout the entire Divine Realm. Even the books on the first floor could make the top-tier guilds drool, let alone those from the second floor.
As he tapped on the book's system panel, all of its attributes were displayed at once.
"Truly worthy of the Ancient God Library. So they store books like this on the second floor?" Shi Feng's lips twitched slightly as he looked at the displayed attributes, his eyes filled with disbelief.
The ancient tome he obtained from the library was none other than the blueprint for crafting Basic Combat Magical Equipment.
Combat Magical Equipment was a special item similar to Enchanted Equipment. While Enchanted Equipment increased a piece of gear's durability, Combat Magical Equipment was different. It was a tool specifically designed to enhance a player's combat power.
This enhancement to combat power was extraordinary.
Combat Magical Equipment did not boost a player's basic attributes, but instead used powerful magic to forcibly elevate a player's life level.
This was magical equipment created by ancient gods, though the technology had long been lost. Any Combat Magical Equipment seen in the Divine Realm was salvaged from ruins, and such pieces were exceedingly rare. Every single one was treasured as a priceless artifact by the major guilds.
Now, with the blueprint for Combat Magical Equipment right before his eyes, how could he not be shocked?
Even if it was only a blueprint for Basic Combat Magical Equipment, it was something that would drive the major superpowers into a frenzy.
Basic Combat Magical Equipment could elevate a player below Tier 3 by one full life level. While it couldn't reach the height of the Primordial Species, this boost was still formidable. It was akin to promoting a Lord to a High Lord, turning a player into a boss-level existence among players.
If an ordinary player equipped it, they could easily challenge expert players. If an expert player equipped it, while they might not be able to contend with top-tier experts, they would still be stronger than those who had achieved minor mastery.
Moreover, unlike equipment with Battle Arrays, which had numerous restrictions and, most importantly, level constraints—a Level 50 Battle Array piece would become unusable once a player reached Level 60—Combat Magical Equipment had no level restrictions. It could be used at any level, provided the player met the tier requirement. Its applicable range was far broader.
Its only drawback was that it couldn't be used inside Dungeons, whether team Dungeons or regional Dungeons. Or rather, using it would have no effect. But even so, it was still in short supply on the market.
The price for a single piece of Basic Combat Magical Equipment on the market reached 200 gold coins, and many players fought tooth and nail just to get their hands on one.
"As long as I can mass-produce these, I won't have to worry about Zero Wing's shortage of expert combat power anymore," Shi Feng thought, his heart surging with excitement as he gazed at the blueprint for the Combat Magical Equipment.
