A living weapon! A former holder of an Authority!

Watching the bone-white dagger 'pulsing' inside his storage bag, Qin Feng felt a chill run down his scalp. It was too eerie!

In the nine years of his previous life and the time since then, Qin Feng had never seen anything that could still move inside a storage bag.

"Well, that's a first…"

This thing was a bit sinister, so Qin Feng didn't touch it for the moment. Instead, he used the storage bag's function to directly view the attributes of that bone-white dagger:

——

[ Soul Harvester · White Bud Blade (divinity armament) ]

[ Grade: Immortal-grade (soul-bound) ]

[ Basic Attributes: Agility + 2000, each attack deals physical damage equal to 18% of the target's maximum Health (Not true damage; defense and damage reduction are effective), and restores the same amount of Health to oneself. Required Level: 30 ]

[ Special: Instant Death (High-tier) + 50 ]

[ Divinity: 1200 / 1200 (1 Divinity is replenished per 15 years of Lifespan) ]

[ Rule Effect 1: Soul Harvest. Consumes 1200 Divinity to activate, cast on a single target (Players only), causing damage to the target's soul. After killing a soul, it can be collected (up to 20). Each soul provides 5 points of Instant Death Affix. souls can also be consumed to upgrade the weapon (upgrading the weapon level will unlock more rule effects). ]

[ Rule Effect 2: soul Control. Consumes 400 Divinity to activate, can be cast on a single target to view the target's soul and memories. ]

(Warning: This is a living weapon, forged from the player 'White Sprout', a loser who once possessed the 'Authority of the soul'. Do not attempt to communicate with her, otherwise, suffer the consequences…)

"…"

After reading the effects of this weapon, Qin Feng felt a chill down his spine. A living weapon! Forging a player with the codename 'White Sprout' into a dagger! Most crucially… This player once possessed the 'Authority of the soul'!

"The soul Emperor, that is the ancient god rumored to control the souls of all things."

"What abilities does His Authority possess?"

"A player who could inherit the Authority of the soul was actually forged into a weapon?"

"And it was rewarded to me?"

Qin Feng realized completely that the level of this 'Path to the End' was extremely high! It might even involve the ultimate secret of the God Forsaken Game!

"Could it be that all those participants on the leaderboard are also beings who possess the Authority of some ancient gods?"

"Unfortunately, I have no idea who is on the leaderboard."

Right now, Qin Feng only knew that his two million-plus points ranked him first in the first stage of the Path to the End. But he didn't know how many points the second place had. Perhaps much lower than him, perhaps only a little bit lower. This made Qin Feng's mood much heavier.

"To be safe, I still need to become stronger before challenging the second stage."

"At least level 35."

The rules for the second stage of the Path to the End were currently unknown, but the monsters inside were level 40-49. If Qin Feng went to challenge it now, he would be at a great disadvantage.

Judging from that living weapon in his storage bag… being able to get first place in the Path to the End meant the rewards were extremely generous! Although the earlier the challenge, the more bonus points, but… that also depends on the base points! If Qin Feng had come half a month earlier this time, just missing the Shadow Blade ricochet alone, his base score probably wouldn't even be one-third of what it was now. Even with the time-based weighting, he likely wouldn't have been able to get first place.

"This weapon…"

In the cave of the Path to the End, Qin Feng looked at the living weapon inside his storage bag. It was an S-shaped scimitar-like dagger, with a blade about forty centimeters long. Qin Feng didn't touch it for the time being. Just watching it pulse inside the storage bag made him feel a bit chilly.

"If this weapon can be used…"

"My Instant Death Affix can soar by up to 150 points, and after being doubled by Shadow Warp, it becomes 300 points, an increase of a full three times!"

"Moreover, it can also directly cause damage to souls!"

Things related to souls were extremely rare. The dreadlocked young black man 'Zuma' who had been following Theodore before was a Soul Walker, who could allow teammates to enter a soul form, immune to any damage. But… that profession was completely a joke in front of an inheritor of the Authority of the soul!

"However, this effect of causing damage to souls consumes 1200 Divinity to activate once, which is equivalent to 18,000 years of Lifespan!"

"To consume a full 20 souls, I have to activate it at least twenty times, which is 360,000 years…"

Qin Feng sighed.

If it weren't for sending Virginie to South Korea to 'farm', it really wouldn't have been that easy to get so much Lifespan. Even so, this amount wasn't something that could be collected in a short time.

Soon, Qin Feng released Osirio, Samiya, and Grey Chicken. Then, he selected the bone-white dagger from his storage bag and 'dropped' it onto the ground.

"All of you, come take a look. Have you ever seen this thing?"

"Also, the soul Emperor, Authority of the soul, or anything like that—do you have any impression?"

"Especially Grey Chicken, does your racial ancestral memory have any relevant information?"

Qin Feng squatted in front of the dagger and asked.

Grey Chicken: "What the heck is that?"

This little phoenix looked completely bewildered, clearly having no impression of anything related to souls.

Osirio asked curiously: "Why is this dagger still moving? Could it be alive?"

Qin Feng nodded: "It says it's a living weapon."

Osirio suddenly became interested: "Is it male or female? Boss, I think this S-shaped dagger still has some charm, why don't you…"

???

Qin Feng remained expressionless, raised his hand, and put the guy away.

In the end, it was Samiya, the Long-tailed Snake Demon, who had some information. She said with some hesitation: "My memory has been wiped too much, but I do have a slight impression of the soul Emperor… I seem to have killed quite a few of the soul Emperor's believers…"

"…"

Qin Feng was a bit speechless. This information didn't seem useful, did it? He could only conclude that in the past, hostility between ancient gods and between followers of ancient gods seemed very common, and they even slaughtered each other…

Suddenly, the white S-shaped dagger that had been slowly moving in front of him suddenly flew off to the side with a 'whoosh'!

Qin Feng instinctively reached out. He grabbed the handle of the dagger!

"You want to run even after being soul-bound?"

Qin Feng sneered.

Strangely enough, the dagger had been very lively just a moment ago, but after he grabbed it, it suddenly quieted down. Qin Feng felt that where it touched his hand, it was extremely cold and smooth, not like a metal-like material; it was a bit like supple skin, and he even seemed to feel a faint heartbeat…

"This is sinister."

Qin Feng frowned slightly. What era did this inheritor of the Authority of the soul come from? And why was she made into a living weapon?

Just then, the system sent a notification: Qin Xiaoyou's memory fusion progress had finally reached 100%!

"Since that's the case, I'll go back and judge her first. By the way, I'll ask Ashashis about the living weapon and the Authority of the soul."

Qin Feng still felt somewhat uneasy inside. After all, the dagger in his hand was an Authority holder just like him, yet it had been made into a living weapon. What exactly was hidden behind all of this?
