Chapter 1 The Beginning

At this moment, the entire black altar radiated a faint, blood-red halo, making it exceptionally eye-catching in the darkness.

Wisps of bright red mist rose from the earth, drawn into a small typhoon eye that had appeared above the altar. The typhoon eye constantly absorbed the scarlet mist, and the space at its center gradually cracked and shattered.

Before long, the spatial rift had formed a spatial black hole.

The instant the spatial black hole formed, the entire Tower of Death seemed to freeze, becoming a world of its own, impervious to any outside influence.

Even Shi Feng's connection to the outside world was completely severed. The friends list was a field of gray, and he couldn't contact anyone.

The heavy air was as dense as mercury, and every movement was severely restricted.

Shi Feng felt as though he were a candle in the wind within this area of the Tower of Death, about to be snuffed out at any moment.

All of this was caused by the terrifying pressure leaking from the spatial black hole.

"What exactly is inside that black hole?"

Shi Feng's eyes widened as he tried to peer into the spatial black hole, but it seemed to be obscured by a strange power. Even with his extraordinary dynamic vision, he couldn't see anything. However, his brain constantly reminded him of one thing.

Escape!

The mere pressure leaking from the spatial black hole was enough to freeze the entire space of the Tower of Death, creating a world of its own.

This was a first for Shi Feng.

Just as Shi Feng was in shock, the more than one hundred thousand Boiling Blood Beastmen beneath the black altar abruptly turned into clouds of blood mist.

That's right, blood mist, and they transformed into it silently and without warning.

The once-crowded Tower of Death instantly became deserted, like a ghost town.

It was a terrifying sight.

All of the blood mist involuntarily sank into the blood-colored divine inscriptions on the black altar, making them even brighter and more dazzling. As a result, the spatial black hole grew larger and larger, and the pressure it emitted became stronger and stronger.

Before, it had been as thick as mercury, but now it felt like steel. Shi Feng couldn't even move his body.

"Is this divine might?" A possibility suddenly flashed through Shi Feng's mind.

It was divine might. Shi Feng had experienced divine might many times. Whenever it was activated, all players within its range would be suppressed in all aspects, with the degree of suppression increasing with the difference in rank. Only those of the same rank would be unaffected. However, none of the divine might Shi Feng had experienced before had rendered him completely immobile, as if he had been frozen in place.

Before Shi Feng could think further, Beast King Thracius on the black altar finished his incantation, and the entire Tower of Death fell silent.

In Beast King Thracius's ferocious face, Shi Feng saw a hint of excitement and desire.

At this moment, the spatial black hole covered the sky above the black altar. If it fell, Shi Feng had no doubt that the entire massive black altar would be completely devoured.

However, the spatial black hole didn't fall. Instead, it emitted a thunderous roar, like a silver bottle shattering or a spring thunderclap.

It was as if something inside the spatial black hole wanted to break through that strange power and come out.

Shi Feng felt uneasy.

If a god were to descend, he would be doomed.

A god was extremely perceptive. Even if they were thousands of yards away and the players hadn't noticed, the god would notice them first.

Many players had tried it in his past life.

Many Tier 4 players who were curious about how strong gods were, were slapped to death by the gods before they could approach within 3,000 yards. Tier 5 players could survive, but only Tier 6 players were qualified to fight back, but even then, they were only qualified.

He was now less than 2,000 yards away from the black altar. As soon as a god descended, he would be immediately discovered and slapped to death.

"It shouldn't descend, right?" Shi Feng had already noticed that the strange power of the spatial black hole was about to give way.

In the blink of an eye, a hand that blotted out the sky emerged from the spatial black hole. The huge black altar seemed like a toy in the hand.

Fortunately, the moment the hand fell, countless golden chains suddenly appeared in mid-air, instantly locking the hand in place, preventing it from moving.

"Chains of Order!" Shi Feng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the slender chains suddenly appear. "Great, as expected, gods can't appear here."

Although the golden chains were slender, they contained a power that even gods couldn't resist.

However, the hand suddenly moved, and something fell from its palm, flashing with a dazzling golden light that illuminated the entire Tower of Death.

The object then fell in front of Beast King Thracius, and the hand retreated back into the spatial black hole.

Suddenly, the entire Tower of Death returned to silence.

"Did that god break through the spatial black hole just to give Beast King Thracius something?" Shi Feng was shocked.

The thing obtained by sacrificing hundreds of thousands of orc troops through a blood sacrifice to summon a god must be an extraordinary treasure, even if Shi Feng couldn't see what it was.

If he could snatch it...

However, Shi Feng shook his head.

Snatching something from a Mythic monster was a joke. Only someone who didn't want to live would dare to do that, because doing so was no different from robbing White River City's magistrate, the Tier 4 Great Magister Whitman. It would be a death wish.

Just as Shi Feng was about to turn around and leave, a figure suddenly flew from the distance in the Tower of Death. It was so fast that it was many times faster than Shi Feng activating Windwalk. In just a few seconds, the figure, which had initially been the size of a sesame seed, grew to the size of a normal person.

"Sky Knight?" Shi Feng couldn't help but be astonished. The newcomer was actually a human NPC.

Moreover, it was a Tier 4 hidden class, Sky Knight.

The Sky Knight, who radiated a rainbow-colored light, charged directly at Beast King Thracius.

Beast King Thracius was greatly alarmed and tried to immediately collect the golden treasure.

However, the Sky Knight was prepared. With a loud shout, he swung his sword at the sky.

Instantly, a huge golden holy sword appeared above Beast King Thracius's head and fell like a meteor straight towards Beast King Thracius.

Shi Feng was stunned.

Because the Sky Knight actually knew the Tier 4 forbidden skill, Skyflash.

Forbidden skills were taboo skills in God's Domain. They were called forbidden because their destructive power was too great. Furthermore, learning this skill was extremely difficult, and classes of the same tier simply couldn't master it.

Tier 4 Skyflash was enough to rival a Tier 5 skill. Even though Beast King Thracius was a Mythic monster, slightly higher than a Tier 4 class, he had to prioritize his safety when facing a technique with the power of a Tier 5 skill.

Beast King Thracius drew the blood-colored greatsword at his side, roared angrily, and unleashed a terrifying aura from his body, as if he had activated some kind of burst skill, increasing his strength to a terrifying level. Then, he swung his blood-colored greatsword, and a blood-colored ray flew towards the golden holy sword.

Boom boom boom!

Suddenly, the entire Tower of Death shook and rumbled, as if the end of the world had arrived.

"No way!" Shi Feng was taken aback.

Beast King Thracius had actually blocked Skyflash.

However, the Sky Knight had already reached the golden treasure and reached out to grab it.

Just as the golden treasure was about to fall into the Sky Knight's hands, Shi Feng saw a hint of mockery in Beast King Thracius's eyes.

"Ah!"

The moment the Sky Knight touched the golden treasure, he let out a bloodcurdling scream. Then, his entire body disintegrated into countless starlight...
