Chapter 38: Mythic Task

This is the follow-up plot triggered by Lei Li Ao's last words.

The system notification said that the activation condition for 2 Yi Ji Zhu Cheng had been triggered, and it is related to this item.

Xiao Feng checked and found that a new task had appeared in his task list.

……This is also the first task he has accepted since the server opened!

【Subdue the Four Evil Spirits (Mythic Task)】

Mission description: Three thousand years ago, the War God Temple fell apart after the fall of the War God Asasata. Four of the Ten Generals and Four Archbishops, while battling the abyssal demons, unfortunately died. Afterwards, they were corrupted by demonic energy and fell to become evil spirits.

Mission requirement: Defeat the four evil spirits scattered across the world and release their imprisoned souls.

Current progress: 1/4.

Pending targets: 【Evil Spirit General – Demon Sword】, 【Evil Spirit Archbishop – Beacon Smoke】, 【Evil Spirit Archbishop – Blood Sea】.

Time limit: 30 days (in-game days).

"There's no task guidance at all, I don't even know where these three bosses are, how am I supposed to handle this?" Xiao Feng looked at the mission info and couldn't help but feel a headache.

But after all, it's a god-level task; if completed successfully, the reward items will undoubtedly be extremely rich!

Then look at the other rewards.

There are also two other red items, both equipment.

【Evil Spirit Spear】

Quality: Mythic

Level requirement: 100

Profession requirement: Knight class

Physical Attack +780

Strength +50

Constitution +100

Special effect 【Bloodthirst】: Active skill lifesteal +10%

Special effect 【Block】: When using a weapon to block, it can negate 70% physical damage

Active skill 【Hot Blood War Song】: Damage reduction +15%, damage increase +25%, lasts 300 seconds, usable once per day

Note: Never wears out

【Heroic Spirit Holy Ring】

Quality: Mythic

Equipment requirement: None

All attributes +10 (activated at level 10)

All attributes +20 (activated at level 50)

All attributes +30 (activated at level 100)

All attributes +40 (activated at level 150)

Special effect 【Holy Light】: When the wearer reaches level 200, additionally increases physical/magic attack by 10%

"So strong……"

Xiao Feng took one look at the two artifacts' stats and his eyes went wide.

The weapon is somewhat okay; although it gives a lot of stats, it's not for him to use, and the level requirement of 100 makes it hard to sell, so it's just eye candy.

But the effect of this 【Heroic Spirit Holy Ring】 made him so delighted he couldn't contain himself, and he directly picked it up and equipped it!

This ring, when fully activated, can increase all attributes by 100 points, which is a full 500 attribute points!

Although he is currently level 50, he can only activate the +10 and +20 effects.

But all attributes +30 is already very powerful, giving him over 800 HP, 200 MP, 36 magic attack, and a small crit chance!

"If I equip the artifact ring and switch to the Weather Staff, my attributes will greatly increase, damage will become more terrifying, and the shield will be sturdier."

Xiao Feng felt a little excited.

Wait until I finish the second transformation and learn the new skill, then update all attributes.

Should……

Probably……

Maybe……

Possibly……

Maybe we can try tearing down a temple?

emmm……

Considering that the temple contains at least four mythic bosses above level 200, and the abilities of mythic bosses like Minya can appear in various outrageous ways.

Xiao Feng felt it's better not to think too much about that for now.

At the very least, wait until a skill's damage exceeds 20 million, enough to instantly kill an Archbishop, then try!

Moreover, there's another important point: his name is red to the point of black, so he can't even enter the main city, nor can he get the Weather Staff from the warehouse.

If he goes back now, it would be one person taking on an entire main city.

Tens of thousands of city guards would come out, and he'd have nowhere to run.

So those exciting feats still need to be postponed a bit.

Xiao Feng continued to pick up items.

After putting away the four red items, there are still eight Legendary items on the ground, four of which are level 100 Legendary equipment, currently meaningless and can only be thrown into storage.

Among the other four, there is a level‑exclusive knight weapon shield 【Holy Spirit Round Shield】; its attack is negligible, but it adds 50 constitution and 200 physical defense, and it is also an excellent weapon.

There are three more, which are just items.

【Legendary Evil Spirit Summoning Scroll】: Summon a level 80 Epic boss 【Evil Spirit War General】 to assist in battle; the Evil Spirit War General has 700,000 HP and 1500 attack power, no skills, can exist up to 600 seconds.

【Divine Light Redemption Potion*4 (Legendary)】: Can be used on any target to cleanse its demonic nature (quest item, non-tradable).

【Divine Power Essence】: Energy essence of the temple guardians; holding it allows entry into Shen Jie without being rejected by Shen Jie's power.

The potion is a required item for the 【Four Great Evil Spirit Subduers】 quest, but now only three bosses remain, so only three potions are needed, leaving one extra, which might have another use.

Divine Power Essence is the same as the Abyssal Monster Essence, and is the item needed to enter the "Shen Jie" corresponding to the Abyss.

Xiao Feng collected them one by one.

After that came several dozen Epic Equipment and skill books.

His backpack had just been filled to near capacity by equipment dropped from the World Guild; now that he has obtained so many top-tier items, he must discard some relatively junk blue equipment.

All the Epic Equipment are level 100, none of them usable, so they can only be thrown into the warehouse.

On the other hand, there are a few decent skill books that can be given to Zhang Fan, Li Li, and others.

Xiao Feng cleaned up the scene.

The next thing to consider is clearing his red name.

"4,700 points of sin value—when will I finish clearing it?"

Xiao Feng looked at his current sin value and said with a headache.

Showing off feels great for a moment, but clearing the red name is like a crematorium.

The maximum sin value is 5,000; each minute online automatically reduces it by 1 point, so relying solely on being online would take more than three days.

However, killing monsters and bosses also has the effect of clearing the red name.

Just now, a Mythic boss alone reduced his sin value by 300 points in one go.

The monsters in the Fallen God Land are relatively high level, and the red-name clearing effect is more pronounced; he can first train here, level up, then after clearing his red name return to the main city and figure out how to achieve a second class change.

Xiao Feng climbed out of the deep pit in the boss area and began killing monsters on the scorched earth.

【Evil Spirit Archer】

Level: 100

HP: 28,500/18,500

【Evil Spirit Knight】

Level: 110

HP: 37,900/27,900

【Evil Spirit Mage】

Level: 105

HP: 29,100/19,100

The nearby monsters are all squishy to Xiao Feng; he can kill them easily.

Their attack power is quite high, though; hitting him deals eight to nine hundred damage, stronger than the current batch of top players.

However, with seamless earth elemental shields, it's not a problem.

"You defeated the Evil Spirit Archer, gaining 1,520 experience."

"You defeated the Evil Spirit Knight, gaining 1,905 experience."

"You defeated the Evil Spirit Mage, gaining 1,592 experience."

……

System notifications kept refreshing, but Xiao Feng was too lazy to look; he just kept grinding, killing monsters when he saw them, killing bosses when he saw them.

No one else comes to the Fallen God Land; it's just him alone, so the number of monsters is still enough for him to keep fighting.

From time to time he throws down Rainstorm and Gale spells to clear the area; on the dark earth, everywhere bears the scars of his bombardments.

Occasionally an elite monster or mini-boss spawns; Xiao Feng doesn't even bother to look, he instantly kills them with no room for negotiation.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, thirty minutes…

The time spent clearing the red name is long and tedious.

Xiao Feng, bored, opened the ranking to check the latest level standings.

Now the players' level order has basically stabilized; the top ten players rarely change.
