As time passed, the strange energy the Blood Stone radiated grew denser. Even Shi Feng, who stood five yards away from the stone, could faintly feel its effects. He could feel his blood rushing to his head and rage boiling within him.
What is this thing? It's just sitting there, yet it has such a powerful mental effect. Shifeng was shocked as he stared at the crimson stone.
The Tower of Four Gods was filled with Eternal Energy, which allowed players to enter an ideal state of emptiness.
However, the strange energy this crimson stone radiated was capable of resisting Eternal Energy's effects. It was obvious how frightening this strange energy was.
Following which, Shifeng picked up the crimson stone to inspect it.
However, the instant Shifeng touched the crimson stone, he felt his soul shudder. He felt as if he were standing in a sea of blood and corpses, and a tyrannical aura filled his body. The tyrannical aura even weakened the Eternal Energy's effects.
A Contaminated Soul Fragment? Shifeng was surprised when he inspected the crimson stone. How is this possible?
The crimson stone was actually a fragment formed from souls.
Souls were illusory, even in God's Domain. It was extremely difficult for souls to take physical form. Normally, only Divine Items could form a physical body.
For example, the Soul Orb fragment from the Treasure of Illusion could absorb a portion of souls to form Soul Water. The Ancient God's Literature Fragment could also absorb a portion of souls to form Soul Essence. However, compared to the fist-sized crimson stone before him, these two items were vastly inferior.
[Contaminated Soul Fragment] (Special Item) Condensed from countless violent souls. Contains incomparably dense Soul Power. Can merge with any creature's soul, elevating the soul to a higher level. However, it will also be extremely tyrannical. (Can only exist in the Tower of Four Gods. Will disappear upon leaving the Tower of Four Gods.)
It's no wonder why the Orc Empire's Founding Emperor was so bloodthirsty. Realization dawned on Shifeng as he read the Soul Fragment's introduction. So, this is the Tower of Four Gods' true opportunity.
The Tower of Four Gods had long since nurtured countless powerhouses in God's Domain. Some had even been the Founding Emperors of God's Domain.
Meanwhile, the strength of their souls was a major reason why these people had grown so strong and become the overlords of God's Domain. After all, the soul was the foundation of everything. Even players were no exception. If a player's soul dissipated, they would have no choice but to restart the game.
However, if a player's soul was powerful enough, they'd be able to use powerful Skills, Spells, and combat techniques with ease. Their physique would also improve significantly.
In God's Domain's Domain, the promotion of one's soul was a transformation. As a result, one's soul, one's soul, at least one's soul.
Now that the Tower of Four Gods had dropped a Soul Fragment, one could just imagine how valuable this opportunity was. It was no wonder why Tier 6 God-ranked players were so eager to enter the Tower of Four Gods. Not only would a powerful soul improve one's physique, but it would also improve one's Completion Rate with Tier 6 Skills and Spells.
However, if players absorb such a violent soul, suppressing it will be very difficult. Absorbing too much of it will be impossible. Shi Feng inwardly sighed as he looked at the Soul Fragment in his hand.
Just holding the Soul Fragment in his hand affected him significantly. If he absorbed it, the Soul Fragment's effects would be even greater. Moreover, the Soul Fragment was wrapped in Eternal Energy.
Based on Shi Feng's estimations, absorbing two Soul Fragments should be his limit. Otherwise, his judgment would be affected.
Of course, he could only absorb Soul Fragments when he reached Tier 2. If he reached a higher tier, he'd be able to absorb more Soul Fragments. It was like adding salt to water. If the water was saturated with salt, the water wouldn't be able to dissolve the salt. The Soul Fragment was the water, and the Soul Fragment was the water. If the Soul Fragment couldn't absorb the Soul Fragment, it would affect his judgment.
Thinking up to this point, Shifeng suddenly had an idea.
Absorbing the Soul Fragment's Soul Fragment was too risky, but the Bloodstone itself was the essence of souls. He might be able to convert the Bloodstone into Soul Fragments and absorb only the Soul Fragment's power.
The Ancient God's Literature Fragment's Skill, Soul Absorption, absorbed the Soul Fragment's power. When a monster's HP fell to zero and the monster's body dissipated, the Bloodstone's Soul Fragment wouldn't be able to absorb the Soul Fragment's power.
This was the case with the Soul Fragment. It had only taken a physical form.
Immediately, Shifeng took out the Ancient God's Literature Fragment and gave it a try.
It wouldn't be a big deal if he failed, but if he succeeded, he'd make a killing. The Ancient God's Literature Fragment could perfectly strengthen a creature's soul without any side effects.
As Shifeng used Soul Absorption on the Contaminated Soul Fragment, Shifeng grew more nervous than ever.
The next moment, the Ancient God's Literature Fragment's divine runes lit up, and the Soul Fragment's berserk aura intensified as if it were resisting the Literature Fragment's power.
However, how powerful was the Ancient God's Literature Fragment? It was an item that the Ancient Gods had painstakingly created. How could the Soul Fragment's berserk aura possibly resist?
In less than five seconds, the fist-sized Bloodstone disintegrated into a pile of dust and scattered in Shifeng's hands. At the same time, Shifeng obtained a drop of Soul Essence.
"Wonderful!" Shifeng was ecstatic when he saw this.
Collecting Soul Essence was extremely difficult. First, there was a level requirement. Monsters that were slightly lower in level wouldn't be able to collect Soul Essence. Second, there was the monster's strength. Even a Great Lord would be the minimum requirement, and Shi Feng had to face a Level 100 Great Lord before he reached Level 100. Once he reached Level 100, even a Level 100 Great Lord wouldn't be enough.
Moreover, Soul Absorption had a six-hour Cooldown. Even if he grinded Bosses everywhere, he couldn't grind a Boss every six hours.
Now that he had nothing to do in the Tower of Four Gods, he could use this opportunity to collect Soul Essence. Moreover, the Contaminated Soul Fragment couldn't leave the Tower of Four Gods. Now that he could use the Ancient God's Literature Fragment to carry it away, it was a wonderful opportunity.
Following which, Shifeng began to complete the Tower of Four Gods' trials, absorbing Bloodline Power while collecting Soul Essence. Moreover, the monsters in the Tower of Four Gods provided a lot of EXP, and Shifeng's killing speed wasn't slow. As a result, they leveled up much faster than in the outside world.
Moreover, the Trial Tower's trials, which were difficult for other Tier 2 players, were nothing to Shi Feng. His days in the Trial Tower were very enjoyable. Every time he cleared a floor, he would rest for a day and return to the real world to learn about Zero Wing's current situation. Only after reaching the Trial Tower's third floor did Shi Feng truly face a challenge.
The monsters on the third floor weren't limited to Bloodline Creatures. The first trial consisted of 900 High Lords. Even peak experts would have to expend a lot of effort to kill one of these monsters. It was impossible to complete the trial in three days. Even Shifeng had to rely on his Tier 3 Basic Attributes and the Secret Technique, Lightning Flash, to complete the trial with 15 strikes.
By the second trial, the monsters had become Tier 3 Great Lords. Moreover, Shifeng had to kill 300 Great Lords in three days. Even Shifeng could barely complete the trial.
After completing the trial, Shifeng had reached Level 99, just one step away from the Level 100 threshold. Moreover, he had finally collected 100 points of Bloodline Power and 86 drops of Soul Essence. If not for the Contaminated Soul Fragment's low drop-rate, he could've collected even more.
After the Shifeng completed the third floor's second trial, the scene before him blurred, and the Shifeng found himself in the ancient Colosseum once more.
Instead of the ten Giant Gladiators standing in the Colosseum, there was an ordinary human wearing dazzling armor and carrying a pitch-black greatsword.
When the Shifeng saw this human Swordsman, he gasped involuntarily.
