Chapter 528: Unrestrained and Fearless

In the blink of an eye, a day passed.

Xiao Feng had already run through 27 passages and arrived at the 28th room.

He had begun to wonder if he had fallen into a strange 'non-repeating infinite' maze.

Because he was originally an adventurer who took the 'dead end' path, deviating from the standard route.

Everything before him was the wrong road; no matter how he went, he could not get it right, and there was no possibility of safety.

But he endured it stubbornly and refused to die!

This caused a strange 'bug' to appear—since there was no road but he insisted on walking, the system could only create an endless road for him to walk.

The result was that he might have fallen into a 'bottomless pit', never able to get out!

But Xiao Feng did not want to give up.

First, he did not want to die; dying once would cost him 20% of his current cultivation, and he would be thrown back to the Storm God Kingdom to respawn, requiring a long run to return.

Second, he could not leave; the Shen Jie Pass and All-Heavens Transmission Privilege Token and other transport items were useless here, so he could only continue forward along the path set up by Mechanism Island.

Level 28, level 29, level 30……

The road seemed endless, stretching forward without end.

Xiao Feng tirelessly repeated, hard‑resisting the big hand that erased challengers, and moved to the next layer.

Time passed, and his willpower grew quickly.

The second day passed, the third day passed……

He logged off midway to eat a meal, then returned to the game and continued walking this endless road.

The fourth day passed, the fifth day arrived.

Xiao Feng had forgotten how many levels he had cleared.

Judging by the time, it seemed he had almost cleared 100 levels.

At a certain moment on the fifth day, Xiao Feng once again used the combination skill of Earth Divine Power Shield + Flame Dragon Flying Dance + Weather Pull to break through a new road.

When he landed in the next room, a system prompt suddenly sounded.

【Amazing Adventurer! Congratulations on consecutively clearing 100 layers of deadly stages, you have obtained Mechanism Island's hidden achievement reward—Unrestrained and Fearless!】

Xiao Feng's spirit was shaken!

It has come, it has returned!

The vanished system prompt finally reappeared, and right away it was such a big surprise!

After running 100 consecutive deadly stages, every road was a dead end; stepping out brought a full‑screen 9999 damage crush.

He stubbornly endured, clearing passage after passage, and finally welcomed the dawn!

The system information continued to broadcast.

【Unrestrained and Fearless: Mechanism Island Second‑Class Achievement, level +50 (maximum not exceeding 500), obtain 1 piece of confidential information.】

【The confidential information has been placed in the backpack; the level‑up effect will be automatically acquired upon leaving Mechanism Island!】

【You can silently chant「leave

」」，instantly transmitted to the outside world. Or continue clearing stages to unlock other rewards.】

Xiao Feng heard this news and was instantly overjoyed.

50 levels!

Gaining 50 levels in one go is simply exhilarating!

He was originally level 265; this surge will directly jump him to level 315!

Due to the realm limit, he might be stuck by the system just like when he was level 250 before, and must break through before he can increase.

This level‑up effect is obtained automatically when leaving, unlike NPCs who receive a tangible reward such as 'a cup of wine' that must be drunk on the spot to take effect.

The system isn't urging him; he can completely accumulate his willpower to 100,000 points here, first satisfy the breakthrough requirement, then claim this level‑+50 reward!

Now Xiao Feng's willpower is already close to 30,000 points, still lacking 70,000.

If he wholeheartedly devotes himself to cultivation, he basically gains over 3,000 points per day, and after about 24‑25 days he can reach the target.

Although it's a bit long, the experience difference between level 300 and 315 is huge, so this time is completely worth enduring!

Mechanism Island will not forcibly kick him out; having completed a second‑class achievement reward, he now has the right to decide whether to stay or leave.

Clearing 100 consecutive deadly stages merely granted a second‑class achievement; obviously its quality is not the highest.

The Weather God Luokexibarde's upgrade effect back then was over 100 levels; without accident, it would certainly be 'first‑class', even 'super first‑class' level.

However, because he is an NPC and not guided by system messages, he does not know the specific reward contents.

【Unrestrained and Fearless】 achievement also carries an attached information reward, inside the backpack.

Xiao Feng took it out to have a look.

This 'confidential information' is a small slip of paper.

After unfolding it, he saw a line of writing, twisted and unfamiliar, but he could understand its meaning.

【Confidential Article 3: It is too powerful, exceeding my estimate; I have no choice but to leave it here. Perhaps one day, after becoming a Primordial God, I can retrieve it.】

After reading it, the slip of paper directly weathered and dissipated.

Xiao Feng frowned slightly.

What does this mean?

Could this 'it' possibly refer to Mechanism Island?

The creator of Mechanism Island inadvertently made it too strong, to the point that even he cannot control it and must leave.

This creator believes he must possess Primordial God‑level strength before he can reclaim this treasure.

In other words……

This Mechanism Island should be a Primordial God‑level weapon?

「emmm……」

Xiao Feng didn't know what expression to make for a moment.

One person created a weapon that he himself cannot use.

…

If it were the mortal world, a blacksmith forging a very heavy weapon that he himself cannot wield would still be understandable.

But this is the divine realm!

The prerequisite for crafting a divine artifact is that one's own strength must be sufficient, and generally the artifacts produced are one tier lower than the creator's realm.

Ordinary high-level gods basically cannot create top-tier divine artifacts, and mid-level gods basically cannot create mid-tier divine artifacts.

The weapons one uses are mostly obtained through purchase.

Yet the person who created Mechanism Island has produced something far beyond his own realm!

Is this because his crafting technique is exceptionally superb, or because an accident occurred during the creation of Mechanism Island, suddenly making it stronger?

Xiao Feng couldn't figure out the answer.

He merely felt that this piece of secret information was somewhat funny.

Mechanism Island has existed for tens of thousands of years, and it's unknown whether its creator is still alive.

It can be certain that he has not yet become an Ancestral God-level powerhouse; otherwise he would surely have returned to reclaim this treasure.

Xiao Feng told Helena about the reward he had obtained, and shared his thoughts, intending to temper his willpower here in hopes of a breakthrough.

Helena had no objection and was delighted that he could pass the trial.

After chatting for a while, Xiao Feng continued his "Little Tyrant" game time.

One hour later, he made his 101st charge toward the deadly path.

Anyway, Mechanism Island didn't stop him from advancing; such a run takes less than a minute, so he just uses it to mark time, lest he forget how long he's been there.

The tedious cycle began again.

The proficiency of the Earth Divine Power Shield and the Flame Dragon Dance increases by 1 point each hour.

Xiao Feng didn't feel bored.

Although this process is very dull, he knows that willpower can be carried out of the game and will become a skill in the real world.

Therefore he focuses wholeheartedly, striving to improve himself, steadily advancing toward the realm of "God".

3 days, 5 days, 8 days...

Time flows on.

Xiao Feng occasionally logs off to eat, with few distracting thoughts.

The only thing he slightly worries about are the two girls in the Xiao residence on the Gods' Continent.

Mechanism Island restricts the teleport function, so he cannot go down midway to find them.

Denice's level has likely already reached the 250-level demi-god threshold; it's unknown what she will become.

Minya may also be gradually merging with the demon child and demon heart, beginning to advance toward the god-level realm.

Perhaps the next time they meet, both girls will have become very formidable experts.

Xiao Feng can be certain that, having disappeared for such a long time without returning, they must surely be angry.

By then he will inevitably get a beating!
