Within the War God's Treasury, as Shi Feng chose to absorb the Divine Power Source, the Eye of Flames in his hand instantly transformed into a ball of fire that merged into the Light of Two Realms.
The crimson flames caused the entire sword body to ignite spontaneously. The previously shattered divine runes on the blade began repairing themselves bit by bit. After lasting for several seconds, crimson divine runes lit up across the entire length of the sword, and the might radiating from the Light of Two Realms surged dramatically.
"What incredible pressure!"
Shi Feng clicked his tongue inwardly as he gazed at the Light of Two Realms in his hands.
Because at this point, the mere pressure radiating from the Light of Two Realms was enough to prevent ordinary fourth-class experts from approaching. One's Mana Body would need to surpass the 100% threshold just to withstand the energy overflow that contained world-destroying power.
However, compared to the surface-level changes brought by the Light of Two Realms, the changes to its internal stats were far more dramatic.
Merely equipping the Light of Two Realms boosted all base attributes by 15%. His Strength directly broke through the 70,000 mark, putting him not far off from level 150 fifth-class Legendary Sacred Domain monsters.
While the Light of Two Realms delivered massive base attribute boosts, its three accompanying skills had also been elevated to fifth-class level. Light of Realm Breaking in particular could now reach early sixth-class in maximum power, with its cooldown reduced from the original one hour to half an hour.
After Shi Feng finished marveling at his upgraded Light of Two Realms, his gaze drifted to the Shadow Walker Cloak on his body.
"Now that I've upgraded the Light of Two Realms, there's no rush to upgrade my weapon further. But as a fifth-class expert, my survival skills are far too weak right now. I wonder how far the Shadow Walker Cloak can be improved."
Shi Feng examined the Shadow Walker Cloak and pulled three more Divine Crystals from his inventory, gathering the seven Divine Crystals required.
Previously, he had saved those seven Divine Crystals intending to use them after reaching fifth-class to quickly get a proper weapon, waiting until he had accumulated more to push the Abyssal further. But now that the Light of Two Realms had been upgraded first, there was no longer any reason to hoard the Divine Crystals. Maximizing his survival capabilities was the way to go—after all, fifth-class didn't make him invincible. Dying once in a Dungeon wouldn't be the end of the world, but dying once in the outside world would result in catastrophic losses.
Once a player reached fifth-class, each death would not only drop their level by one but also damage their Mana Body, which the player would need to repair. Natural recovery would take at least three to four days, unless one used a Seven Luminaries Crystal Stone to accelerate the process.
Therefore, any player who had advanced to fifth-class would prioritize improving their survival abilities—the cost of a single death was simply too steep.
System: Sufficient Divine Crystals detected. Allow the Shadow Walker Cloak to absorb them?
"Allow absorption!"
Shi Feng agreed without a moment's hesitation.
The instant Shi Feng gave his approval, the seven Divine Crystals in his hands transformed into seven streaks of flowing light that orbited around the Shadow Walker Cloak before dissolving into countless motes of light that seeped into the cloak's damaged divine runes, continuously repairing them.
One... Two... Three...
Not until all seven Divine Crystals had fully dissipated did the divine runes on the Shadow Walker Cloak suddenly light up all at once. The extremely plain cloak instantly transformed into what appeared to be a layer of dark mist. Not only could the outside world no longer detect anything about the wearer, but Shi Feng's own sense of presence was drastically diminished—to the point that if he wished, he could eliminate his presence entirely.
As for the Shadow Walker Cloak's stats, they had undergone an earth-shattering transformation.
