Chapter 1 The Old Alchemist's Table

The dilapidated alchemist's table was completely covered in a thick layer of dust. Faint magical power flowed around it. Shi Feng had only taken a few steps forward when a sudden sense of oppression assaulted him.

"This is... Divine Might!"

Although the Divine Might was very, very faint, at a distance of less than ten yards, Shi Feng could still feel his body becoming slightly sluggish.

This made Shi Feng overjoyed.

Divine Might was a unique aura emitted only by items frequently used or meticulously crafted by gods. Needless to say, items frequently used or meticulously crafted by gods were all good things.

Immediately, Shi Feng endured the Divine Might and began to clean up the alchemist's table.

Although the Divine Might was powerful, it was ultimately too faint. Even at a distance of less than a yard, he could still move freely. Before long, the entire alchemist's table was cleared.

The many books and raw materials placed on the alchemist's table had long been eroded due to their age, leaving nothing behind. He could only see strange magic纹 etched on the table, with nothing else of note.

"Could it be that the Divine Might is emitted by the alchemist's table itself?" Shi Feng frowned.

It was already apparent that the alchemist's table was a treasure.

The faint magic power surrounding it would definitely aid in the refinement and synthesis of potions. Perhaps there were other unseen effects. In short, it would definitely be of great help to alchemists.

However, an alchemist's table was not like other items. Players could not store it in their backpack space. If they wanted to move it, they could only carry it themselves.

But that was clearly impossible.

The alchemist's table was the size of a pool table. Even if he could lift it, he probably wouldn't be able to take it out of here. And something he couldn't take was as good as nothing.

"If we could place such an alchemist's table in the alchemy room, I'm afraid the alchemists of the Candlelight Trading Firm could improve by a level," Shi Feng lamented inwardly.

In God's Domain, in addition to various alchemy tools, alchemist's tables like this were extremely precious. A good alchemist's table was no less than allowing an alchemist to learn an additional basic alchemy secret technique.

But now that he couldn't take it away, Shi Feng could only take out the Soul Orb from his backpack and begin to try to absorb the alchemist's table.

Since the alchemist's table could emit Divine Might, it naturally counted as a divine crystal. One of the purposes of his choice of the Shura-level class change quest was to obtain a large number of divine crystals to lift the Demon God's seal. Otherwise, keeping it on his body would always be a big problem.

"It must be able to absorb it!" Shi Feng prayed inwardly, then clicked on the Soul Orb's Divine Power Absorption, selecting the alchemist's table as the target.

The alchemist's table was currently unowned. As for whether the Soul Orb could absorb unowned items, he didn't know, after all, he had never done it before.

As he clicked on Divine Power Absorption, rolling black mist emerged from the Soul Orb, directly enveloping the entire alchemist's table.

Time passed second by second, but there was no sign of the rolling black mist devouring the alchemist's table.

"Could it be that it won't work?" Shi Feng asked, somewhat worried.

But soon, a system notification sounded in Shi Feng's ear.

System: Would the player like to allow the Soul Orb to devour the炼魔shi tai (Refining Demon Stone Table)?

As soon as he saw that it could be devoured, Shi Feng clicked the agree button without hesitation. The 炼魔shi tai (Refining Demon Stone Table) might be extremely precious, even better than an Epic-rank weapon, but something he couldn't take was useless to Shi Feng. It would be better to use it to lift the Soul Orb's seal.

As Shi Feng clicked agree, the 炼魔shi tai (Refining Demon Stone Table) began to bloom with golden light, clearly resisting the Soul Orb's devouring.

But what kind of item was the Soul Orb?

A fragment of the legendary Illusionary Treasure, a god-like existence. How could a mere 炼魔shi tai (Refining Demon Stone Table) resist it?

The 炼魔shi tai (Refining Demon Stone Table) began to dissolve at a speed visible to the naked eye. Streams of light golden energy continuously poured into the Soul Orb. In less than a minute, the entire 炼魔shi tai (Refining Demon Stone Table) turned to dust, and the Soul Orb's data also changed somewhat.

The original number of absorbed items was zero, but now it had become one. The key skill, Soul Water, had also changed. Originally, it required the absorption of one hundred players, but now it only required ninety-five, a reduction of five players at once.

"Absorbing divine crystals has this effect?" Shi Feng was slightly stunned, then overjoyed.

If the number of players absorbed decreased, then the speed of making Soul Water could increase.

Immediately after absorbing the 炼魔shi tai (Refining Demon Stone Table), Shi Feng activated the Eye of All-Knowing and began to investigate.

Searching himself was ultimately too slow and might even lead to omissions, but the Eye of All-Knowing wouldn't. Within a radius of one hundred yards, no secret could resist the Eye of All-Knowing's investigation.

"Xia Lian didn't lie to me. Where gods once lived, there are indeed many divine crystals," Shi Feng discovered another divine crystal. Although its aura was concealed by a magic array, he hadn't noticed it before. However, the Eye of All-Knowing not only discovered the magic array but also the divine crystal within it.

The divine crystal was a somewhat broken stone chair. Because it was broken and had nothing special about it, he hadn't noticed it. Moreover, it was just a stone chair, so it was really hard to pay special attention to it.

Immediately, Shi Feng began to absorb the broken stone chair, increasing the number of absorbed items to two.

To ensure that he wouldn't miss any divine crystals in the alchemy room, Shi Feng began a comprehensive inspection, using the Eye of All-Knowing to search the entire alchemy room again and again.

"It's really amazing. This is just an alchemy room, yet I've discovered four divine crystals. This is a great harvest." Shi Feng looked at the Soul Orb, which was only six divine crystals away from breaking the seal, and the number of players needed to absorb had already dropped to eighty. This ignited a spark of excitement in Shi Feng's eyes.

He couldn't help but be excited.

The Soul Orb was originally one of the Seven Treasures. Because of the Demon God, it concealed the true power of the Seven Treasures. Back then, the Seven Flowers of Sin could cultivate a large number of experts without using the true power of the Seven Treasures. If he could use it without any scruples, the mere thought of it was enough to send chills down one's spine.

After sweeping the alchemy room, Shi Feng went directly to the laboratory.

The laboratory was much more high-end than the alchemy room. It was a place specially used to invent and create high-end alchemy products. Up to now, only Titan City had it, and it was used to help players break through to the Grand Master or even the Great Grandmaster level, a top-grade auxiliary room.

As soon as Shi Feng walked into the laboratory, he felt his entire body stiffen.

"Why is he here?" Shi Feng looked at the familiar figure walking back and forth in the laboratory, and his whole body seemed to have fallen into an ice cave.

This figure was none other than the Black Wizard King, Raymond!

At this time, Raymond was making alchemy potions, completely focused on his work. In addition, the space inside the laboratory was very large, with bookshelves everywhere, blocking a lot of the view. There was also a magic array operating in the room that had the effect of isolating and preventing disturbances. The Tier 5 Saint Magician Raymond would definitely not discover him.

This made Shi Feng feel a headache.

The laboratory was different from the alchemy room. It was very well preserved. Needless to say, there would be an exaggerated number of treasures. Just the divine crystals that he could find without using the Eye of All-Knowing numbered two. If he used the Eye of All-Knowing, who knew how many there would be. Maybe he could not only remove the Soul Orb's seal, but even repair the items that needed divine crystals.

After all, the true power of the Moon God lay in the alchemical items he researched and created. It goes without saying that he put a lot of effort into the laboratory.

"Should I go in or not?" Shi Feng could feel that as long as he dared to approach within ten yards, he would definitely be discovered by Raymond. As long as he was discovered, it would be a dead end. There was no other possibility.

Just as Shi Feng was thinking about what to do, an NPC alchemist assisting Raymond in making potions in the laboratory walked towards Shi Feng.

"Not good, have I been discovered?"
