The Return of the Sword God

The Curse of the Abyssal Blade

Shi Feng was shocked when Master Jack stopped him.

“Young man, are you willing to allow me to see this sword?” Master Jack looked at Shi Feng with eyes filled with burning desire. His tone was no longer indifferent, but a little whispering.

"It ......" Shi Feng was bewildered at the sudden request for initiative from Mr. Jack.

However, it seemed logical after Shi Feng thought about it.

The preciousness of a Magic Weapon, not to mention the Famous Sword forged by an expert blacksmith, needless to say. The Famous Sword was the lifelong pursuit of every Master Forger. They would want to experience it after seeing it.

Seeing Shi Feng hesitating, Master Jack quickly said, “You can calm down. I just want to see it, and I won't let it go to waste. If you have any request, just mention.”

When Shi Feng heard this sentence, he became extremely excited.

This is the Forger Expert!

Just by forging alone, he could create equipment with Mysterious-Iron rank, even Secret Silver rank. His request was only to see Shi Fengs sword.

Shi Feng agreed without hesitation. He handed the Blades of Hell to Master Jack.

NPCs could not steal items from players, so he was not at all worried about whether Master Jack would remove the Abyssal Blade or not. He'll allow Mr. Jack to see it as he pleases. Following which, Shi Feng would ask for the Secret Silver One-handed Sword. At that time, he would be able to fully display the true strength of a Swordsman.

Master Jack held the Hell Blade that looked like a fire poker, praising the softness of his blade and admiring its strength. After looking at it for over ten minutes, Master Jack reluctantly returned the Blade of Hell to Shi Feng.

“Young man, this is a good and very strong sword. However, the curse on this sword is very evil. The more you release this sword force, the stronger the curse will be. In the end, its users would be stuck in an endless abyss. It will be too difficult if you want to control this sword with your strength, and the curse will easily devour you,” Master Jack solemnly warned.

Shi Feng knew about this. Otherwise, he would not have hesitated for a long time before binding the Hell Sword.

“Mr Jack, do you perhaps have a method to weaken the curse?” Shi Feng asked.

Although he knew of some weakening methods, he did not have the ability to carry them out at the moment.

“Young man, you should know that blacksmith expert Olysses forged this sword. There was only that one sword in Gods Domain, and only one of the other thirty-five Famous Swords could match it. Many unimaginably terrifying creatures were killed in order for this Famous Sword to possess unparalleled power. After death, this existence was sealed into each sword by the blacksmith expert. It is impossible to suppress this sword without an enormous power.” Mr. Jack's tone was filled with incomparable respect, but he immediately smiled and said, “However, that doesn't mean there's no way to weaken the curse.”

“Can I ask what methods are there?” Shi Feng quickly asked.

“If you want to suppress a great power, you need an equally great power to do so. The power sealed within the sword was a curse. If you want to weaken it, you must have a considerable fortune.” Master Jack complained, “In the continent of Gods Domain, some stones have gathered the luck of Gods Domain. These stones are called the Fortune Stone. As long as you have the Fortune Stone, then you can compensate for the curse. Although these chunks of stone could be found throughout the continent, only a few people could obtain them. I've never even seen it before. Trying to find him is too difficult. If you can find a piece of this stone, then I can help you weaken the curse on your sword.”

Seeing Shi Fengs relaxed expression, Master Jack shook his head to comfort, saying, “Young man, you should know that Fortune Stone is extremely rare. You don't have to feel discouraged. It is normal not to find it. Only those blessed by God can obtain the Fortune Stone, and they are the ones we cannot compare.”

“Mr Jack, is this a chunk of rock?” Shi Feng slightly smiled as he took out a dark green-colored Star Crystal.

“True, this Fortune Stone ....” Master Jack nodded his head after seeing the dark green Star Crystal. However, he became surprised a moment later. He looked at Shi Feng as if he was looking at a monster.

Shi Feng shrugged his shoulders, indicating that it was nothing.

Shi Feng had previously been slow because he learned that Master Jack was able to use the Fortune Stone to suppress the Hell Blade. Please be aware that there are several Master Forgers in Star-Moon Kingdom. However, the number of Master Forgers capable of using Fortune Stones to suppress the curse of Magic Weapons could be counted with one hand. Shi Feng had never expected that Master Jack in front of him would be one of them.

“Mr Jack, can you weaken the curse now?” Shi Feng asked expectantly.

After a while, Master Jack finally recovered from his previous calm. Pretending not to care, he said, “OK, no problem. I can finish it within half an hour.”

Beside him, Blackie held onto his stomach while trying his hardest not to laugh. However, Master Jack's shocked expression was completely outrageous to Blackie; he had to run into the forest before laughing out loud.

Half an hour later, Shi Feng received the Blade of Hell. He found some changes to the introduction of the Hell Blade.

The Hell Blade was personally created by the blacksmith expert Olysses, using the fangs of the Black Dragon King as his material. It is one of the thirty-six famous swords, and is ranked 31st. However this sword had been cursed by the Black Dragon King. In addition to being able to provide tremendous power to its users, there will often be a Backlash. However, after being re-modeled by Jack using the Star Crystal, the Backlash's power had been greatly reduced. If the user is unable to withstand the Back Attack, then the user will receive the curse of the Black Dragon King, which permanently reduces All Attributes by 50%.

Shi Fengs heart became extremely relaxed after seeing the description in this paragraph of words. At the very least, his Backlash would not be too powerful in such a short period of time.

Shi Feng stored the Hell Blade. Suddenly, he noticed the many messages sent by Lonely Snow. All the messages asked why Shi Feng had not arrived yet, and how much longer he needed to reach the Deathly Forest.

“Blackie, let's dive into Dungeon.” Shi Feng sent a reply message stating that he was coming soon.

"OKAY. I'm just worried that I don't have a chance to try my new spell,” Blackie said excitedly.

When Shi Feng and Blackie arrived at the Subterranean Prison Area in the Deathly Forest, the entire Deathly Forest was filled with people. Level 2 players were everywhere, and many players formed parties to enter the Dungeon.

“Party open in Deathly Forest, welcome the cruel damage dealer, 4 waiting 2.”

“Effective party for Deathly Forest, we just lost a powerful healer; guaranteed clean.”

Seeing such a scene, Shi Feng slightly shook his head. He walked towards Lonely Snow who was waving his hand. In Shi Fengs previous life, players had long been trapped in the Deathly Forest. Dungeons were only settled when the majority of players were at Level 5.

“Brother Expert, you finally got here. My friends can't wait. Let's go fast.” Lonely Snow was burning with anxiety when he saw Shi Feng leisurely walking over.

Following which, Lonely Snow brought Shi Feng and Blackie to the gathering place of the party.

“Lonely, this is the expert you said? I thought he was a guy with three heads and six hands, but he doesn't seem to be more than this.” The male cleric, Wordless Summer Night saw Shi Feng wearing beginner equipment. There was also a fire poker hanging on his waist; it seemed like it was a trash weapon he had randomly picked up. When Wordless Summer Night saw this, he could not resist the ridicule.

“Sister Without a Word, how can you say such a thing about Brother 'Expert'? He was a dignified Beta Tester, so he definitely had 'something extraordinary'. Otherwise, how could he dare to take all the supplies for the Swordsman and the Curse Witch?” The Shield Warrior, Battle To The End, stood to the side and sneered.

The two of them were already feeling displeased at Shi Feng. This was because Shi Feng wanted to take out all of the Plate Armor and Mage Equipment immediately after joining. Wouldn't they work without pay? If not for their Boss wanting to see Shi Feng, they would have long since invited other players and dove into the Dungeon. Now that they saw Shi Feng with poor equipment, they could criticize him and force him to leave.

Lonely Snow wanted to retaliate because Shi Feng was someone he personally invited. However, Shi Fengs equipment did not give Lonely Snow the chance to do so. He could only stare in silence.

“Alright, let's party. Many people had entered the Deathly Forest. If we don't dive, we won't have a chance to compete for First Kill.” As the leader of the party, the handsome male Ranger, Waving Slowly But Surely interjected as he said.

Blackie wanted to refute, but Shi Feng stopped him. Shi Feng did not think of the ridicule of the two people. No matter what he said, he and Blackie had let them wait for more than half an hour, so couldn't he let them speak a few more sentences?

As they finished partying, the Shield Warrior angrily said, “Sial, this noob is only Level 1! He's here just to cheat equipment!”

“Bos, Deathly Forest is a Level 2 Dungeon. If we let a Level 1 noob enter the Dungeon, aren't we just waiting to be wiped out?” Summer Night Wordlessly looked towards the Forest Guard, Waving Slowly, showing his displeasure.

Lonely Snow was similarly shocked when he saw Shi Fengs level.

Keep in mind that many players had already risen to Level 2. How could a Beta Tester not reach Level 2?

The Waving Boss Slowly looked towards Shi Feng. Previously, he still had hope in Shi Feng, but now everything was gone. He suddenly said in a cold tone, “Have you ever died before this?”

"No." Shi Feng shook his head, honestly saying: “However, entering the Deathly Forest at Level 1 is enough.”

“Then you can leave now. We don't need 'experts' like you here. We hope you can understand.” Waving Slowly said coldly, his brows slightly furrowed.

“Bos, this must be a misunderstanding. How about we try it first?” Lonely Snow explained.

“Try?” Wordless Summer coldly laughed, “Then who will be responsible when we die? You should know that we still lose experience if we die in the Dungeon. Even though it is low, it is still 10%. Can this noob pay such a big loss?”

“Without words, don't complicate Lonely.” Waving Slowly repeatedly said, “Lonely, I know you are trying to protect this Swordsman, but I must take responsibility for our party. I will only find veterans to enter the Dungeon. I wouldn't waste time partying with a newbie. You have two options now; the first one follows us to the Dungeon, the second one leaves the party with them.”

“I'll leave the party.” Shi Feng did not wish to humiliate Lonely Snow. He immediately left the party, turned to leave, “Blackie, we will party with others and enter the Dungeon.”

"All right." Blackie smiled with a 'hehe', leaving the party without a second thought.

“Huh, huh. 'The identity of the expert has been clearly seen. At least he has the self-awareness to go after knowing he can't cheat the equipment anymore.” Shield Warrior grinned and sneered, “Lonely, you are really gullible. Such a noob will only fool you. You need to learn correctly from Boss Waving Slowly in the future.”

Lonely Snow's face turned pale after hearing this. However, he did not feel that he was wrong; shi Feng was clearly an expert.

“Bos Waving Slowly, sorry for this.” Lonely Snow chose to leave the party. He was ready to join Shi Feng to determine whether his judgment was correct or not.

"You!" Waving Slowly was immediately stunned. He had never expected Lonely Snow to be so decisive. It was just a stupid decision. He had long since chased away Lonely Snow if not for him having good techniques.

Wordless Summer Night looked towards Lonely Snow, saying with a cold smile, “Lonely, you better not regret the choice you made. You will regret it as we cleared the Deathly Forest and obtained great equipment. You will regret for ten years, twenty years because you did not follow Boss Waving Slowly.”
