After obtaining the Tier 3 Magic Scroll, Shifeng stored all the items inside the Treasure Chest in his bag. He then carefully retrieved the ancient Bible of Darkness. Fwoosh!
"I must succeed." Shi Feng was not completely confident in summoning a Tier 3 Demon.
After all, the Bible of Darkness was a Fragmented Legendary item.
Upgrading a Fragmented Legendary item's Skill wasn't a simple task. Even a Tier 3 Magic Scroll wouldn't necessarily be able to do so.
Unfurling the Magic Amplification Scroll, Shifeng began to chant the incantation on the scroll.
Suddenly, the Mana in the cavern went berserk, and a boundless amount of Mana swarmed in from all directions. Gradually, the Mana in the cavern became visible to the naked eye, transforming into a colorful mist that lingered in the cavern. It was a magnificent sight.
"What dense Mana."
At this moment, Shifeng had become the center of the cave. The surging Mana flowed into Shifeng's body, forming a massive Mana vortex.
"Come out, Demon Gate!" Shifeng used Demon Summon.
Boom …
Suddenly, the entire cave began to shake. A gigantic door then emerged from the void. This door was twice as large as the Tier 2 Demon Gate Shifeng had summoned before. The frightening pressure even restricted Shifeng's movements.
"It worked?" Shifeng could not help his excitement as he looked at the Demon Gate.
If he used the Magic Amplification Scroll and the Bible of Darkness in a Guild war, he could definitely turn the tide of the battle.
No matter the situation, a Great Lord ranked monster was a considerable threat to players, not to mention a Great Lord that could be controlled by players. The threat it posed to players would most likely increase by more than tenfold.
The Demon Gate slowly opened, and a humanoid Demon wearing crimson scale armor and wielding a pitch-black battle axe walked out of the darkness. However, this Demon was much larger than ordinary humans, standing over three meters tall. Its crimson wings flapped as it hovered above the ground.
"You're actually such a weak ant. You dare summon me, a Purgatory Demon? " The Purgatory Demon's crimson eyes contained a hint of ridicule as it looked at Xiang Shifeng. It raised the pitch-black battle axe in its hands and swung it at Xiang Shifeng. The Purgatory Demon's speed was so fast that it was only 10 yards away. Even Great Lord ranked monsters were no match for him. "Ant, turn into dust!"
The pitch-black battle axe suddenly released a powerful fluctuation, causing the surrounding space to become unstable.
The battle axe was about to fall. Shifeng suddenly realized that he couldn't move …
"This is a Tier 3 Taboo Skill, Spatial Suppression!" Shifeng was shocked.
He didn't expect the demon he summoned to be so strong.
There were many Tier 3 Demons. Moreover, their intellect was very high. Hence, only a small portion of Demons could learn Tier 3 Taboo Skills. Even among Tier 3 Demons, Tier 3 Demons were overlords.
Shifeng was only a Tier 1 class. They could not break free from the suppression of a Tier 3 Taboo Skill. They could not even use their Skills. All they could do was watch as the gigantic axe descended on them.
Boom!
When the pitch-black battle axe descended, the entire cavern was destroyed.
"Hahaha! Such a weakling actually dares to use the Bible of Darkness? With this, the Bible of Darkness will be mine!" The Purgatory Demon hovering in midair could not help but laugh.
However, its laughter did not last for long. The Purgatory Demon's expression darkened as it stared at the ruined cavern.
"How are you still alive?" The Purgatory Demon's eyes widened in shock as it stared at Shifeng, who had just climbed out of the rubble.
At this moment, Shifeng's body was covered in dust, and he cut a sorry figure. However, his HP was still full, and he had not received any injuries.
"As expected of a Tier 3 Demon. If I hadn't used Phantom Kill to guard against the Magic Trap, I would've died from that attack," Shi Feng said, smiling calmly as he patted the dust off his body. He then looked at the Purgatory Demon hovering in the air.
The instant the Purgatory Demon appeared … Shifeng discovered that he could not fully control the Purgatory Demon. Hence, he had immediately used a Substitution Skill, switching places with his doppelganger while he hid near the cavern's entrance. However, he had still been affected by the Tier 3 Taboo Skill's shockwaves. Fortunately, he had used Defensive Blade to block the shockwaves in time.
"Lucky ant! However, you won't be so lucky next time!" The Purgatory Demon revealed a ferocious expression as it raised its gigantic battle axe and swung it at Xiang Shifeng once more.
Contrary to expectations, Shifeng sneered and said, "That's right. There won't be a next time. It's because time is up. "
"Time?" A hint of confusion flashed in the Purgatory Demon's eyes. However, it quickly turned to look at the Bible of Darkness in Xiang Shifeng's hands. At this moment, countless blue chains emerged from the Bible of Darkness, pouncing on the Demon like a pack of hungry wolves. Immediately, the Demon bellowed, "No!"
At this moment, the Purgatory Demon no longer thought of attacking Shifeng. Instead, it wanted to escape.
However, no matter how fast the Purgatory Demon was, it could not outrun the blue chains that had emerged from the Bible of Darkness. Immediately, the chains pierced through the Purgatory Demon's body, binding it so tightly that it could not move. It could only lie on the ground like a dead dog as it howled in pain.
After several seconds of howling, the Purgatory Demon's spiritual-filled eyes dimmed. As if it had become a walking corpse, the Demon stood up silently as if it were waiting for orders. Meanwhile, the blue chains disappeared.
That was close. Fortunately, I used my doppelganger to buy some time. Shifeng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the Purgatory Demon's lifeless eyes. At this moment, the Tier 3 Purgatory Demon was finally under his control.
There was a possibility of a Backlash from a summoned creature. However, this possibility depended on the player's strength. Currently, Shifeng was only a Tier 1 player. If he used a Tier 3 Scroll to forcefully summon a Tier 3 Demon, the possibility of a Backlash was very high. If the Backlash happened, the summoner would be targeted.
Of course, there was a solution to this problem. For example, the Bible of Darkness could erase the summoned Demon's consciousness. However, it required time to activate. After erasing the summoned creature's consciousness, the summoned creature would become a puppet, losing all of its autonomy. This would greatly reduce the summoned creature's combat power, making it extremely difficult to control.
Originally, after a summoner summoned a creature, they only needed to issue a simple command. The summoned creature would then automatically obey the command. However, after creating a puppet, the summoner would have to split a portion of their consciousness to control the summoned creature. Moreover, this would greatly affect the summoner's combat power.
Most importantly, after erasing the summoned creature's consciousness, players would have a much harder time using the summoned creature's Skills. Originally, a summoned creature possessed its own consciousness, so its Skills' effects could reach 100%. However, players had never used the summoned creature's Skills before. Moreover, only a portion of their consciousness could control the summoned creature's Skills.
At this moment, however, Shifeng had no time to worry about such things.
Compared to a Tier 3 Demon that suffered a Backlash, a Tier 3 Demon was much more useful. Although controlling it would greatly reduce the Tier 3 Demon's combat power, it was better than nothing.
Previously, I couldn't check the Demon's Attributes because it wasn't under my control. I wonder what the Attributes of this Tier 3 Purgatory Demon are? Shifeng was very curious about the Tier 3 Demon's Attributes. Since it could use Tier 3 Taboo Skills, it should be much stronger than ordinary Tier 3 Demons.
