Chapter 1 Getting the Ancient Dark Book

After obtaining the Tier 3 Magic Scroll, Shi Feng immediately collected all the items in the treasure chest into his backpack and carefully took out the ancient Dark Book.

"It must succeed." Shi Feng wasn't entirely confident that he could successfully summon a Tier 3 demon.

After all, the Dark Book was a fragment of a Legendary item.

It wasn't easy to enhance the skill effects of a fragment of a Legendary item, and even a Tier 3 Magic Scroll might not guarantee success.

Unfolding the Mana Enhancement Scroll, Shi Feng chanted the spell on the scroll.

Instantly, the magic elements in the entire cave became violent. Endless mana swarmed in from all directions, gradually becoming visible to the naked eye, turning into a colorful mist that enveloped the entire cave in a breathtaking spectacle.

"What dense mana."

Shi Feng had become the center of the entire cave, with surging mana madly pouring into his body, forming a huge mana vortex.

"Come forth, Demon Gate!" Shi Feng used Demon Summoning.

Boom…

Suddenly, the entire cave began to shake. A huge gate suddenly emerged from the void, twice as large as the Tier 2 Demon Gate that Shi Feng had summoned before. The terrifying pressure even restricted Shi Feng's movements.

"Did it succeed?" Shi Feng looked at the Demon Gate, his heart filled with excitement.

The Mana Enhancement Scroll combined with the Dark Book, if used in a guild war now, could definitely change the entire battle situation.

Great Lord-ranked monsters were a considerable threat to players at any time, not to mention a Great Lord that could be controlled by players, whose threat would probably increase more than tenfold.

The Demon Gate slowly opened, and a humanoid demon wearing bright red scale armor and wielding a jet-black battle-ax walked out of the darkness. However, it was much taller than ordinary people, more than 3 meters tall, with blood-colored wings fluttering as it hovered above the ground.

"You dare to summon me, a Purgatory Demon, with such weak strength?" The Purgatory Demon's pure blood-colored eyes looked at Shi Feng with a hint of mockery, and it raised the jet-black battle-ax in its hand and smashed it towards Shi Feng. The speed was so fast that it covered a distance of 10 yards in one step, surpassing even Great Lord-level monsters. "Insignificant ant, turn to dust!"

The jet-black battle-ax suddenly erupted with intense fluctuations, causing the surrounding space to become unstable.

Just as the battle-ax was about to fall, Shi Feng suddenly found that he couldn't move…

"This is the Tier 3 Forbidden Skill, Spatial Suppression!" A storm raged in Shi Feng's heart.

He didn't expect the demon he summoned to be so strong.

There were many Tier 3 demons, and they were highly intelligent, so only a small number of them could learn Tier 3 Forbidden Skills, making them overlords among Tier 3 demons.

Shi Feng was only a Tier 1 class and couldn't break free from the suppression of the Tier 3 Forbidden Skill. He couldn't even use his skills and could only watch helplessly as the giant ax came crashing down.

Boom!

The jet-black battle-ax fell, and the entire cave was completely destroyed.

"Hahaha, daring to use the Dark Book with such weakness! Now, the Dark Book belongs to me!" The Purgatory Demon, floating in mid-air, couldn't help but laugh.

However, the laughter didn't last long before the Purgatory Demon's expression suddenly darkened, and it stared intently at the cave that had turned into ruins.

"How are you still alive?" The Purgatory Demon's eyes widened, looking in disbelief at Shi Feng, who was crawling out of the rubble.

At this moment, Shi Feng was covered in dust and looked a bit disheveled, but his health was still full and he was not injured.

"As expected of a Tier 3 demon. If I hadn't used Phantom Kill to guard against magic traps, I would have really died just now." Shi Feng dusted himself off and looked at the Purgatory Demon in mid-air, smiling calmly.

The moment the Purgatory Demon appeared, Shi Feng realized that he couldn't completely control it, so he immediately used the Swap skill to switch his main body with his clone, while his main body hid at the cave entrance. However, he was still affected by the Tier 3 Forbidden Skill, but he used Imperial Sword Return to Heaven in time to resist the wave of damage.

"Lucky ant, but you won't have another chance to be lucky." The Purgatory Demon revealed a ferocious expression and once again raised its giant ax to strike at Shi Feng.

Faced with the giant ax's attack, which was full of destructive power and speed, Shi Feng instead smiled coldly and said, "Yes, there will indeed be no next time, because the time has come."

"Time?" A trace of confusion flashed in the Purgatory Demon's eyes, which then turned to horror. Its gaze turned to the Dark Book in Shi Feng's hand, from which countless cyan chains were now emerging, rushing forward like hungry wolves. The Purgatory Demon roared unwillingly, "No!"

The Purgatory Demon no longer thought about attacking Shi Feng, but instead tried to escape.

However, no matter how fast the Purgatory Demon was, it seemed to be no match for the emerging cyan chains. It was directly pierced by the cyan chains, its movements restricted, and it could only lie on the ground like a dead dog, letting out painful wails.

After the wails lasted for a few seconds, the Purgatory Demon's intelligent eyes became dull and lifeless, as if it had turned into a living corpse. It stood up silently, as if waiting for instructions, while the cyan chains also disappeared.

"That was close. Fortunately, I used the clone to buy some time." Shi Feng looked at the Purgatory Demon with lifeless eyes and finally breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, the Tier 3 Purgatory Demon was finally under his control.

Summoned creatures all have the possibility of rebelling, but it depends on the player's own strength. Now that Shi Feng was only a Tier 1 player, forcibly summoning a Tier 3 demon using a Tier 3 scroll had a high probability of rebellion. If it did rebel, it would attack the summoner.

Of course, there were also ways to solve this problem. The Dark Book could erase the consciousness of the summoned demon, but it took time to activate. After erasing the consciousness of the summoned creature, the summoned creature would completely become a puppet without any autonomy, which would greatly reduce the combat power of the summoned creature and make it very difficult to control.

Originally, after a summoner summoned a creature, they only needed to issue simple instructions and didn't need to manage it further, and the summoned creature would actively complete the instructions. However, after becoming a complete puppet, the summoner had to divide a strand of consciousness to control it, which would greatly affect the summoner's own combat power.

The most important point was that after erasing the summoned creature's autonomous consciousness, it would be very troublesome for the player to use the summoned creature's skills. Originally, with autonomous consciousness, the skill effects could reach 100%. Players had never used the summoned creature's skills before, and they were controlling it with only a part of their consciousness, so the skill effects would be lucky to reach 50%.

However, Shi Feng couldn't care about that much at this moment.

Compared to a Tier 3 demon that could rebel, a puppet-like Tier 3 demon was more useful. Although this control would greatly reduce the combat power of the Tier 3 demon, it was better than nothing.

"I couldn't check its attributes before because it was out of control. I wonder what the specific attributes of this Tier 3 Purgatory Demon are?" Shi Feng was very curious about the attributes of the Tier 3 demon. Being able to use a Tier 3 Forbidden Skill made it much stronger than ordinary Tier 3 demons.
