Chapter Summaries

At the Dark Auction, Shi Feng secured a bronze stone tablet and realized he could use his City-Building Order to create a player trading venue. He began preparing to establish a city by searching for Seven Luminaries Crystals and found two items that could help him reach Demon Island, both listed by alchemy grandmaster Miao Wuyin.

• Shi Feng bought the bronze stone tablet for 450,000 Magic Crystals, while Ling Yin reconsidered how powerful Zero Wing Guild might be.

• Shi Feng decided to collect Seven Luminaries Crystals and searched for items that would raise his Shadow Resistance for a trip to Demon Island.
• Shi Feng found a Master Shadow Potion and a Light Cloak listed by Miao Wuyin, but their requested trade items stunned him.

Shi Feng negotiated with the alchemy grandmaster Miao Wuyin, offering clues to Shadow Gold and Ancient Wood in exchange for a master-grade Shadow Potion, a Light Cloak, and a month of potion crafting. He showed her his Secret Manual of Potions, leaving Miao Wuyin captivated by the treasure.

• Shi Feng recognized Miao Wuyin as one of God's Domain's top alchemy grandmasters and considered the value of the materials she sought.
• Shi Feng contacted Miao Wuyin and demonstrated his knowledge of Shadow Gold and Ancient Wood.
• Miao Wuyin asked what Shi Feng wanted for the clues, and he demanded a master-grade Shadow Potion, a Light Cloak, and a month of potion crafting.
• Shi Feng sent Miao Wuyin the Secret Manual of Potions, and she was stunned by what she saw.

Shi Feng recruited Miao Wuyin to work for Candlelight Trading Firm for one month in exchange for clues about rare materials, then returned to White River City and began rebuilding Stone Forest Town. His actions revealed Zero Wing’s growing influence and drew Miracle Guild’s attention.

• Shi Feng and Miao Wuyin signed a contract exchanging her Master Shadow Potion and Light Cloak, plus a month of work at Candlelight Trading Firm, for clues about Shadow Gold and Ancient Wood.

• Shi Feng paid 30,000 Gold to begin constructing Stone Forest Town, earning Zero Wing the first reconstructed intermediate town and a Bronze Guild Promotion Token.

After renovating an intermediate town, Shi Feng used the resulting reputation and a Bronze Guild Promotion Order to promote Zero Wing to a three-star guild residence in White River City. The announcement rewarded Zero Wing with several valuable guild upgrades and stunned players and rival guilds across the region.

• Renovating the town granted Zero Wing 200,000 guild reputation, and Shi Feng found a Bronze Guild Promotion Order in his bag.
• Shi Feng submitted the order and chose Zero Wing's White River City residence for promotion, paying the discounted fee of 4,000 Gold.
• System announcements declared Zero Wing the first guild with a three-star residence and awarded it a Bronze Guild Emblem, a defensive magic array, Guild Funds, a hiring hall order, and a training room promotion order.
• Players across Star-Moon Kingdom and neighboring regions reacted with shock and envy as news of Zero Wing's promotion spread.
• Feng Qianyu received a report about Zero Wing's promotion at the Dark Auction and stared at the message in disbelief.

Zero Wing’s promotion to a three-star guild residence alarmed rival guilds and pushed them to abandon their ambitions in the eastern Star-Moon Kingdom. As Zero Wing prepared to expand into the vacated cities, Qi Yitao and Drunken Laugher appeared in an Evil Beast-occupied town containing a magic array with divine power.

• Feng Qianyu told Azure Phoenix that Zero Wing had gained a three-star residence, whose Employment Office and Training Room would greatly strengthen the guild.
• Major guilds panicked as they realized Zero Wing could now expand its membership and control more cities.
• Orchid told Feng Xuanyang that Smile Topples a City would withdraw from Gale City and Twin Lions City and focus on the western Star-Moon Kingdom under the higher-ups’ orders.
• Water Rose learned that rival guilds had shifted west, leaving Zero Wing better positioned to control eastern cities.
• Qi Yitao and Drunken Laugher entered an Evil Beast-occupied town surrounded by a magic array that radiated divine might.

Shi Feng saw players flocking to join Zero Wing after its new guild benefits and Stone Forest Town drew attention. As he headed to secure the Bronze Tablet, Water Rose told him Twilight Echo wanted an urgent meeting, and he agreed to meet them at the Guild Residence.

• Shi Feng saw guild members withdrawing from their guilds to seek admission to Zero Wing, whose three-star status, training facilities, and guild quests attracted newcomers.
• Players flocked to register at Zero Wing in White River City and Stone Forest Town, where its mana density, Arena, and planned private residences made the town especially appealing.
• Independent players discussed the limited public sale of Stone Forest Town houses, which were expensive and unavailable to members of other guilds.
• Shi Feng arrived at the Candlelight Trading Firm intending to store the Bronze Tablet, and Water Rose told him Twilight Echo wanted to discuss an urgent matter.
• Shi Feng learned Glory Echo had been removed from his position and told Water Rose to have Twilight Echo wait at the Guild Residence.

Owl’s You Baiye and Ning Meng arrived in Storm City for All Things Hall’s celebration after it took control of the city from Nine Stars Family. In White River City, Spring Echo visited Zero Wing and saw how much the guild had grown, then was stunned when Water Rose appeared at Level 48.

• You Baiye and Ning Meng arrived in Storm City with Owl and discussed the crowds drawn by All Things Hall’s rise to power.
• Lei Yuan greeted You Baiye on President Wan Xiang’s behalf and escorted Owl to All Things Hall’s celebration.
• Spring Echo and four Twilight Echo members arrived at Zero Wing’s residence and saw its many well-equipped players.
• Water Rose entered the reception room and revealed that she was Level 48, stunning Spring Echo and his companions.

Spring Echo visited Zero Wing to propose a partnership with Twilight Echo over a Mana Mine, but Shi Feng demanded most of the profits and control of a nearby town. The chapter ended with Spring Echo questioning whether Shi Feng’s terms were excessive.

• Water Rose stunned Spring Echo and his experts by revealing her Level 48 and full Tier 1 Evil Soul set.
• Water Rose brought Spring Echo to Shi Feng’s office, where he was further overwhelmed by the levels and presence of Bai Qingxue and Fire Dance.
• Spring Echo proposed that Twilight Echo and Zero Wing jointly secure a Mana Mine in the Storm Empire and split its profits evenly.
• Shi Feng agreed to cooperate only if Zero Wing received seventy percent of the profits and control of the nearby town.
• Spring Echo grew angry and asked whether Shi Feng’s demands had gone too far.

Shi Feng rejected Twilight Echo’s proposed partnership over the magic energy vein, insisting Zero Wing had to control the mining town to protect it. As Shi Feng left to travel to the Sea of Death, Qi Yitao appeared in the Star-Moon Royal City region with powerful horned monsters.

• Shi Feng refused Spring Echo’s offer of seventy percent of the vein’s profits without control of the town, and ended the negotiations.
• Shi Feng explained to Bai Qingxue and Water Rose that the vein’s immense value would draw powerful enemies, and that Zero Wing would need the town and backing from major forces to defend it.
• Spring Echo left White River City to report the failed negotiations to Twilight Echo’s elders.
• Shi Feng teleported to the Wild Ancient Land and headed toward the Sea of Death, leaving Guild affairs to Water Rose and Bai Qingxue.
• A Level 40 team fighting a Stone Ape Chieftain was ambushed and killed by horned humanoid monsters.
• Qi Yitao emerged from the forest and revealed that he was observing the monsters.

Qi Yitao tested a blood-red crystal’s power before seeking stronger opponents, while Shi Feng encountered a Freedom Alliance fleet attacking sea beasts in the Sea of Death. Twilight Echo rejected Zero Wing’s terms and decided to defend its Mana Mine without its help.

• Qi Yitao used a dark gray crystal to turn a corpse into blood mist, then rode toward the Setting Sun Hills to seek stronger experts.
• Twilight Echo’s elders rejected Zero Wing’s demand to manage their town and chose to reinforce its defenses around the Mana Mine.
• Shi Feng reached the Sea of Death and spotted a fleet advancing toward a group of more than ten sea beasts.
• Shi Feng recognized the fleet’s Azure Spear emblem as belonging to the Freedom Alliance and watched it charge into battle.

Shi Feng watched the Freedom Alliance fleet battle a King-rank Sea King Snake and its Unicorn Sea Snakes. The fleet defeated the smaller beasts but suffered a devastating attack from the Sea King Snake, which was adapting to their magic arrays.

• Jun Wuchang dismissed Shi Feng's lone speedboat and ordered the Freedom Alliance fleet to encircle the sea beasts.
• The Sea King Snake revealed itself alongside several Unicorn Sea Snakes and used Weather Control to trap the fleet in storms and tornadoes.
• The Freedom Alliance formed three magic arrays that suppressed the sea beasts, then attacked while its vessels maintained the barriers.
• The fleet killed the Unicorn Sea Snakes, but the Sea King Snake grew faster and stronger as it took damage.
• The Sea King Snake unleashed a sweeping magical attack that wrecked three Advanced Speedboats, badly damaged five others, and killed more than half the players aboard the struck vessels.

The Freedom Alliance fought the Sea King Snake with the Thundercloud Leopard and a fleet of speedboats, but the boss broke free of the magic array’s suppression and devastated their fleet. With the Sea King Snake down to 1% HP, Shi Feng seized his chance and fired the Swift Dragon Speedboat’s Dragon Lock Cannon.

• Jun Wuchang ordered the Freedom Alliance to deploy its Tier 3 summoned beast after the Sea King Snake destroyed three speedboats and threatened the rest.
• The Thundercloud Leopard drew the Sea King Snake’s attention while the speedboats bombarded it with cannon fire, reducing its HP to below 15%.
• The Sea King Snake turned blood-red, unleashed tornadoes, and destroyed an advanced speedboat as the magic array’s suppression failed.
• Jun Wuchang ordered the fleet to remove the suppression and attack with everything, but the Sea King Snake’s magical blast destroyed more than sixty percent of the speedboats.
• Shi Feng saw the Sea King Snake at 1% HP and fired the Swift Dragon Speedboat’s Dragon Lock Cannon at it.

Shi Feng demonstrated the Swift Dragon Speedboat’s Mystic Iron-grade power to the Freedom Alliance and offered to split the Sea King Snake’s drops after helping kill it, but Jun Wuchang refused. The Alliance thought it had defeated the beast, only for the Sea King Snake to transform into its complete form with 200 million HP.

• Shi Feng struck the Sea King Snake with the Dragon Lock Cannon, dealing 322,849 damage and shocking the Freedom Alliance with the Swift Dragon Speedboat’s power.
• Shi Feng offered Jun Wuchang a fifty-fifty split of the drops if they joined forces, but Jun Wuchang rejected the offer and chose to handle the fight alone.
• Shi Feng steered away from the battle while the Freedom Alliance continued attacking the Sea King Snake.
• The Freedom Alliance celebrated when the Sea King Snake appeared to fall, but its members noticed they had received no EXP.
• The Sea King Snake transformed into a much larger, two-headed complete form with 200 million HP as darkness covered the sky.

Shi Feng joined forces with Jun Wuchang’s battered Freedom Alliance to defeat the Sea King Snake after it entered its stronger second phase. The Sea King Snake died, and Shi Feng reached Level 50.

• The Sea King Snake revived in its two-headed second phase and destroyed sixteen more Freedom Alliance speedboats with a combined fire-and-lightning attack.
• Jun Wuchang accepted Shi Feng’s terms, agreeing that all drops would belong to Shi Feng in exchange for his help killing the Sea King Snake.
• Shi Feng refused to join the team and instructed the Freedom Alliance to attack from a distance while he controlled the fight.
• Shi Feng used a Basic Magic Pulse Bomb with the Dragon Lock Cannon to draw the Sea King Snake’s aggro, then led it in circles while the Freedom Alliance evaded its attacks.
• The Sea King Snake unleashed its ultimate attack at 1% health, but Shi Feng survived with Mana Barrier and finished it off with another Dragon Lock Cannon shot.
• Shi Feng gained a large amount of experience and reached Level 50.

After reaching Level 50, Shi Feng’s attributes and equipment grew stronger, and he collected the Sea King Snake’s drops, including a valuable Advanced Speedboat design. While sorting the remaining loot, he discovered a Heavenly Thunder Emblem.

• Shi Feng reached Level 50, and the Sacred Breath of the Heavenly Dragon and his Epic equipment gained powerful attribute boosts.
• The Freedom Alliance members abandoned any thought of stealing the Sea King Snake’s drops after judging Shi Feng and his Swift Dragon Speedboat too dangerous to challenge.
• Jun Wuchang accepted that the Freedom Alliance had survived with four Bronze Speedboats, while Shi Feng collected the Sea King Snake’s abundant drops.
• Shi Feng found a Flying Eagle Speedboat Design, which could let Zero Wing build Advanced Speedboats and strengthen its naval power.
• Shi Feng spotted a Heavenly Thunder Emblem among the remaining items in his bag.

Shi Feng examined the Heavenly Thunder Emblem and the Sea King Snake’s other drops, then planned how Zero Wing could build its maritime strength and eventually claim territory on Thunderclap Island. He left the passes for the Candlelight Auction and rejoiced at obtaining a complete Bronze-ranked Unicorn Sailboat.

• Shi Feng learned that the Heavenly Thunder Emblem granted Thunderclap Island passes, enemy suppression, and advanced authority, and decided Zero Wing could use it to claim territory there.
• Shi Feng contacted Melancholy Smile and told her to prepare to purchase Diamondwood for Flying Eagle Speedboats using land deeds he had arranged to obtain through the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.
• Shi Feng decided to keep the five Heavenly Thunder Passes hidden and use them as an attraction at the Candlelight Auction rather than reveal Zero Wing’s maritime capabilities.
• Shi Feng inspected the Sea King Snake’s remaining drops, including three Tier 3 Magic Scrolls and the Epic-ranked staff Words of the Fallen.
• Shi Feng was stunned and delighted when he found that the drops included a complete Bronze-ranked Unicorn Sailboat.

Shi Feng obtained a Unicorn Sailboat that could greatly ease the transport of Diamondwood and other materials. Jun Wuchang approached him with an offer of cooperation involving a maritime inheritance.

• Shi Feng examined the Unicorn Sailboat’s capabilities and realized it would make transporting materials between kingdoms faster and cheaper.
• Lan Xin told Jun Wuchang that Ye Feng was a powerful Zero Wing member, and Jun Wuchang was impressed by Zero Wing’s strength and Shi Feng’s Mithril Grade Speedboat.
• Jun Wuchang decided to approach Shi Feng and invite him to the Freedom Alliance’s Sea Dragon City gathering, despite the risks of revealing its secret.
• Shi Feng asked Jun Wuchang what he wanted after the commander brought his Bronze Speedboat alongside the Swift Dragon Speedboat.
• Jun Wuchang proposed cooperation involving a maritime inheritance, hoping to interest Shi Feng.

Shi Feng recruited Jun Wuchang and the Freedom Alliance’s Third Fleet to travel with him through the Sea of Death, after negotiating a share of the inheritances in an ancient ruin. At the Twin Isles, they discovered a powerful fleet bearing the Flower of Seven Sins insignia.

• Jun Wuchang offered Shi Feng a share of the sea-based inheritances in exchange for help entering the ancient ruin with the Third Fleet.
• Shi Feng negotiated for a second inheritance if they obtained three, then learned the ruin would open the next day.
• Shi Feng invited Jun Wuchang’s fleet to accompany him toward Demon Island to save time on his own journey.
• Shi Feng led the fleet into the Sea of Death’s dangerous inner region, where Lan Xin suspected he was pursuing an Epic Quest.
• Shi Feng brought the fleet to the Twin Isles and found fourteen speedboats docked there, including one Mystic Iron Grade and six Bronze Grade boats.
• Shi Feng recognized the seven-star emblem on the boats as the fleet insignia of the Flower of Seven Sins.

Shi Feng's group reached Demon Island and was ambushed by Flower of Seven Sins, who planned to kill them and seize their speedboats. As the attackers closed in, Shi Feng unleashed a blast that killed six of them and left their equipment floating on the water.

• Savage Spear ordered the Flower of Seven Sins members to attack the approaching speedboats and keep them intact.
• Shi Feng had his group conceal their identities with black cloaks after spotting Flower of Seven Sins's insignia.
• The Flower of Seven Sins members froze the sea with Magic Scrolls, put away their boats, and charged Shi Feng's group.
• Jun Wuchang ordered the speedboats' cannons to fire, but the Flower of Seven Sins experts dodged every shot.
• Shi Feng released a black beam that evaporated the ice and killed six Flower of Seven Sins members, leaving twelve pieces of equipment on the water.

Flower of Seven Sins transformed into demons and attacked the Freedom Alliance after Shi Feng’s Dragon Lock Cannon killed six of their members. As the battle turned against Jun Wuchang’s group, a demon Berserker charged Shi Feng and was suddenly knocked flying.

• Shi Feng’s Dragon Lock Cannon struck Flower of Seven Sins, killing six members and astonishing both sides with its power.
• The black-clad Ranger approved the use of a transformation, and Flower of Seven Sins members changed into demons with greater strength and a hunger for souls.
• Shi Feng explained the benefits and costs of becoming a demon, then ordered the Freedom Alliance to use burst skills and Tier 2 Magic Scrolls.
• Flower of Seven Sins overwhelmed Jun Wuchang’s group, killing more than ten Freedom Alliance members without suffering injuries.
• A level 42 Berserker charged Shi Feng aboard the Swift Dragon Speedboat, but Shi Feng blocked him and sent him flying more than ten yards.
