Infinite Death Form, Sarah’s Transformation! (5800)

At the moment the binding was completed.

The dagger in Sarah's hand burst out with a strong aura of darkness.

It made her seem to completely vanish from this world, becoming secretive and elusive.

At the same time, this assassin's already terrifying power surged by a huge margin once again!

Taking a look at her attribute panel.

[Phantom Assassin: Sarah Blade Dance]

[Race: Dark Elf]

[Level: Level 70, 0 million / 20 million (Tier 7 Overlord-level creature)]

[Detailed Attributes: Click to View]

Five million health points, thirty-one thousand attack power, and a hundred percent critical strike rate—one can imagine what kind of concept this was!

With any casual slash of hers now, combined with [Assassination Code] + [Overlord Domain].

It easily broke eighty thousand damage.

Coupled with the bonus of 'Death God Stance',

Sarah at this moment wouldn't fall behind even when soloing Hero-level Overlord creatures.

After just a few slashes, triggering the 'Instant Death' effect could directly kill enemies on the spot.

Of course, right now she first needed to find one thousand people for Sarah to eliminate, accumulating 'Soul Points' before she could activate the infinite Death God Stance.

Speaking of which, the talent [Eternal Power] was truly becoming more and more useful.

Without this SSS-grade talent, the actual combat strength of the death gods dagger would plummet by a massive margin.

After all, obtaining soul points through killing enemies was still too troublesome.

It was impossible to have so many people for you to kill in every single battle.

And now, with this kind of bonus, the infinite-duration 'Death God Stance' was truly somewhat abnormal.

Cao Xing estimated that it was almost comparable to the strength of a demigod artifact.

"Good, good, good, with this death gods dagger."

"Next, whether we go explore that Sword Master's inheritance or open the Legendary mage's inheritance, we will have much more certainty!"

Then, Cao Xing instructed: "Sarah, there is nothing much to do today during the day."

"You should go outside the city first, find some stray beasts or other monsters to slay at will, and fill up the weapon's soul points."

Sarah immediately said respectfully: "As you command, Lord."

After speaking, her figure vanished within the room.

Half an hour later.

A figure had already left Eternal Frost Main City, appearing amidst the endless snowfield.

Sarah's gaze looked around, seeming to search for a suitable existence to strike.

A moment later, she saw a group of figures standing in the snow nearby.

That seemed to be a group of human Survivors.

They were shouting over there.

"Seeking experts for the Bullin Alpine exploration quest, rewards shared equally."

"Are there any team-ups for the Troglodyte cave? Help me get the Troglodyte chieftain totem inside, and I am willing to pay thirty thousand crowns!"

"Eighty thousand crowns waiting for some expert to help me go into the forest and catch that three-legged woman!"

Hearing their information, Sarah seemed to understand something.

Then, all by herself, she transformed into a shadow and quickly hurried toward a nearby high mountain.

Soon she found a cave.

Before long, Cao Xing heard the system prompt.

[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance killed Troglodyte Berserker Lv41, Tier 5 Elite creature, gained Experience Points: 4510, Soul Points + 1]

[Your ——]

Cao Xing knew that Sarah was already fighting over there.

Sweeping through everything like a force of nature, in about a dozen minutes, she slaughtered one thousand Troglodytes.

At the same time.

Cao Xing heard another prompt.

[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance successfully used weapon special effect [Death is Coming], lasting 10 minutes. Affected by the talent [Eternal Power], this effect has become a permanent state (Note: In the permanent state, you can exit and close at any time.)]

At this moment, a smile appeared on the corners of his mouth once again.

Therefore, Cao Xing pressed the communication device on his ear and said: "Sarah, continue to slay enemies and fill up the soul points on the dagger."

Although with [Eternal Power], as long as it is activated once, it will exist infinitely.

But after filling up the soul points, she could use the abnormal teleportation skill [Dark Blink].

Moreover, killing another one hundred enemies later would also increase Sarah's critical strike damage by 100%.

Equivalent to any casual slash now dealing over 100,000 damage! (Note: Under the condition that the enemy's armor is below 2000.)

A burst of attacks could easily reach millions in damage!

It was truly terrifying enough to make one's heart tremble!

Receiving the order, Sarah over there once again pounced toward the Troglodytes ahead, embarking on a frantic slaughter.

Taking only three to four minutes, she filled the dagger's soul points and increased critical damage by 100%.

After completing her goal, she crawled out from that cave.

At the same time, a group of Survivors seemed to have already formed a party, and right now they were leading dozens of people, preparing to attack this Troglodyte cave.

Just at this moment, they suddenly saw a shadow rapidly rush out.

That shadow emitted the aura of destruction and death!

Wherever it passed, the light was distorted by her body, as if it could devour everything!

Like a Death God appeared in the mortal world.

Just by taking a hurried glance, these Survivors were frightened so stiff that they couldn't move at all.

They had a premonition that if this shadow were to make a move on them.

The people present would be slaughtered by her in an instant!

Under that death-like oppression, they were too scared to even breathe loudly.

Fortunately, this shadow didn't pay attention to them and directly disappeared on the spot.

At this moment, these Survivors let out a heavy sigh of relief.

After quite a while, they said with lingering fear.

"Just what was that thing?"

"I don't know! But it's so terrifying. I feel like if that thing moved a finger, all of us would be instantly reaped!"

"This world really has crouching tigers and hidden dragons; it's just too damn dangerous!"

This group of people was deeply shocked one after another.

A moment later, the leading Survivor looked at the dark cave ahead and then said: "Um—are we still going in?"

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, not knowing how to decide.

A dozen minutes later.

Sarah had silently returned to the tavern.

When that figure, looking like a shadow that distorted the surrounding light, appeared, even Cao Xing felt somewhat shocked.

Sarah in the Death God form was truly somewhat terrifying!

Although her facial features and appearance couldn't be seen clearly, she exuded an intangible temperament.

That was an existence that completely disregarded life and stood high above.

Cao Xing asked: "Sarah, this form should also be able to be closed at any time, right?"

"Yes, Lord."

A mysterious and hollow voice resounded.

Under the Death God Stance, even her voice had changed.

However, as Sarah exited this stance, a powerful force of souls surged into her dagger.

And she once again turned back into the Dark Elf hiding in the shadows, closely protecting Cao Xing.

Cao Xing was incomparably satisfied.

At the same time, he was also somewhat looking forward to Braum reaching level 70 as soon as possible and then binding the [Shield of Origin].

After all, there was an Origin Giant form on it, which was also extremely powerful.

As a Level 70 Legendary equipment as well, its effect shouldn't be weaker than the [death gods dagger].

With nothing much to do during the day, Cao Xing continued to wait in the tavern.

When nighttime arrived, the bartender came to his door and gently knocked, saying: "Guest, there is an important figure looking for you."

"He is currently in the private room on the first floor."

Cao Xing's heart stirred slightly, seemingly understanding something.

"I know, tell him I'll be right over."

"Alright."

This bartender quickly left.

And Cao Xing tidied up his clothes.

Then he came to an independent private room on the first floor.

There, a figure was quietly sitting.

It was precisely General Koro, who had made an appointment during the day.

And Cao Xing very naturally sat down opposite him.

Koro got straight to the point.

"Let's discuss the matter regarding Taside."

Cao Xing slightly nodded and said: "General Koro, I think you should have also noticed that Taside has a relationship with the Church of Light."

Hearing this, the general's expression shifted slightly, and then he nodded, saying: "I can indeed tell that this guy definitely has something going on with the Church of Light."

"After the battle of Lake Doron City last time, I joined forces with several other captains to report Taside together, and His Majesty the King has already started suspecting him."

"Recently, he has basically been undergoing investigation by the circuit court."

"However, without actual evidence, we cannot casually convict a general."

Hearing this, Cao Xing directly took out a list of black-robed priests and handed it to him.

Anyway, this list had already been utilized by him almost to its fullest.

Now it was just right to do a favor along the way.

Koro took it.

The more he looked, the more his brows knitted together.

A moment later, he sighed.

"As expected, this guy really is a member of the Church of Light."

He didn't doubt the authenticity of Cao Xing's list.

Because a few names on this list had been captured by them not long ago!

"However—just this list alone is still not enough to convict Taside—"

Cao Xing asked in confusion: "Is this still not enough?"

Taside slightly nodded, "There is no power mark of the Church of Light on this list; you probably obtained it accidentally from somewhere."

"Of course, I am not suspecting that you casually gave me a piece of paper, but rather because this kind of thing is too easy to forge. As long as Taside refuses to admit it to the death, even with this list, there is nothing we can do to him."

Cao Xing's brows frowned slightly.

And right at this moment, Koro changed the topic.

"However————during this period of time, I haven't been entirely inactive either."

Cao Xing's eyes lit up.

"You mean?"

Koro said: "Recently, I investigated Taside and collected his travel records."

"Among them, there are several items that are evidence of Taside interacting with the personnel on this list."

"Combined with this evidence, plus this list, it is already enough to capture him and then interrogate him!"

"When His Majesty the King returns, it will be the moment Taside falls into our net!"

A look of pleasant surprise also appeared on Cao Xing's face.

As expected, since the other party could become a general, they certainly didn't just have brute force; their mind was also very clear.

They had already started taking action in secret.

At this moment, as if remembering something, Cao Xing quickly said, "General Kro, you must be careful then, don't let this guy notice and run away in advance."

"I know."

Kro said with a chuckle.

"Lord Cao Xing, this list of yours has helped me a great deal."

"Besides what you said during the day about the teleportation array permissions, do you have any other requests?"

Cao Xing pondered for a moment, then said, "Yes."

He wasn't polite either and said directly,

"I want to know the locations of all the strongholds of the Church of Light that you have mastered, including the headquarters, branches, and transit stations."

"You've been investigating for so long, you must have some confidential information."

Hearing this, Kro gave Cao Xing another deep look.

And he knew that the lord in front of him was no ordinary person.

"You are right, we do grasp the locations of some strongholds of the Church of Light."

"However, most of them are locations of some branches."

"Before this, we turned a blind eye and let them grow precisely because we didn't want to alert the enemy."

"After finding the location of their headquarters, we will mobilize all forces and wipe them out in one go!"

Cao Xing said, "Then can you tell me the locations of these strongholds?"

A trace of hesitation appeared in Kro's eyes.

Then he slowly shook his head and said, "I'm truly sorry, Lord Cao Xing."

"Just as I mentioned before, we plan to use a thunderous action to wipe out this faction."

"Therefore, at this critical juncture, we cannot have any accidents, nor can we let the Church of Light realize that we have discovered them."

"Although I know you wouldn't be so impulsive, this matter involves too much."

Cao Xing also expressed understanding.

In fact, for Kro to tell him these things was already equivalent to leaking secrets.

If Cao Xing were a person from the Church of Light and went back to report at this time,

immediately, all the strongholds of this faction would start moving locations.

But because of his actions today, he had gained Kro's trust, which was why he was willing to tell him so much.

However, even though Cao Xing understood, he still felt somewhat regretful in his heart.

Kro also seemed to notice his expression.

After some hesitation, he made a certain decision.

He slowly leaned closer and whispered, "Actually—His Majesty the King left this time to go to the border to search for the location of the headquarters of the Church of Light."

"Moreover, this time he even brought the King of Spirit-Vision Goshawks, and estimates are that there will be some unexpected gains."

"You must not tell anyone about this matter."

Hearing this, Cao Xing widened his eyes once more.

At the same time, he couldn't help feeling emotional in his heart.

As expected, as a leader who is a king, he wouldn't wait for the enemy to strike at the door before making a move.

Instead, he had already started acting in secret.

At this moment, he was waiting for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to the Church of Light!

Kro said, "The fact that you can have hundreds of thousands of honor points proves that you indeed have a massive enmity with the Church of Light."

"As for wanting to know the locations of other strongholds, I cannot make the decision on this matter."

"But after the King returns, I can introduce you to him and see if he can meet you and talk with you personally."

Cao Xing looked solemnly at General Kro.

The King!

That was the existence holding the highest authority in the entire Ice Crystal Kingdom.

I'm afraid that up until now, no Survivor has ever met this existence.

And now, he was actually going to discuss cooperation with such an existence.

Of course, Cao Xing wasn't excited because of the other party's status,

but rather extremely curious about what kind of strength this old king actually possessed.

Master?

Hero?

Or perhaps—Legendary?

Pulling back his thoughts, Cao Xing said solemnly,

"Then I'll have to trouble General Kro."

He waved his hand and said, "It's nothing."

"We've discussed pretty much everything, so I'll be leaving first."

"Alright."

Finished speaking, the two of them left the private room together.

And after returning to the kingdom, Kro acted as if nothing had happened.

Even when Taside passed by him, he acted completely normal.

Everything was just waiting for the old king to return.

At that time, the Eternal Frost Main City would welcome a certain change.

The operation against the tumor-like faction of the Church of Light would also usher in a new stage.

On the other side.

The Seed of Light was in the temple listening to the reports of those bishops below.

Most of them were about the war situation at the border.

Right at this moment, it suddenly sensed a vast aura coming from the depths of the temple!

A look of pleasant surprise instantly appeared in its eyes!

"Respected God of Light!"

"You have finally awakened!"

The Seed of Light rushed over almost impatiently and said excitedly,

This vast will asked, "Shen Shengjie, how is the situation of the church recently?"

The Seed of Light respectfully replied, "Reporting to the Lord, according to your instructions, we have recently concentrated our focus on the border region."

"Including Archbishop Sullivan and the Otherworld Demon Sovereign, they have both arrived at the border region at this moment."

"The Otherworld Demon army, cooperating with the army of the Weilun Kingdom, is currently holding back a large number of troops from the Ice Crystal Kingdom."

That vast will replied, "Very good, it seems you did take my words to heart."

"Let us use the blood of these people to open the curtain of a new era!"

At this time, the Seed of Light said excitedly, "Respected God of Light, besides this matter, I have another piece of news to report to you!"

"Speak."

Obviously, after the will of the God of Light sensed that no accidents had occurred during the period of his slumber, his mood also improved a bit.

The Seed of Light quickly said,

"We have already found the person who stole the Bright Holy Scripture. He is an Otherworld Lord named Cao Xing!"

"It is he who has been carrying out various obstructions against our church, including the battle of Lake Doron City, where his figure was also present."

"This person's territory is in the Gale Snowfield region. Should we immediately send people to capture this guy and take back our holy scripture?"

Hearing this, this will fell silent for a moment.

"An Otherworld Lord—"

He didn't doubt whether these weak Otherworld Lords could accomplish such things like other powerhouses did.

As a deity, after a brief calculation, he roughly grasped the ins and outs of the matter.

"Interesting—I understand. The guy who destroyed Démǔ's will in the Witch Forest back then was also him."

"This little fellow has gotten into big trouble."

The Seed of Light asked in confusion, "Respected God of Light, what do you mean—"

That will chuckled, "Blood is about to appear—"

"At that time, when blood dyes the earth red, there will be a period of rule loosening within the Abyssal Land."

"And we will seize the opportunity to come out from that place."

"This kid has offended the Nightmare God, and since he is a guy who holds grudges, he is already dead for sure."

Hearing this, a look of pleasant surprise instantly appeared in the Seed of Light's eyes.

"That's great, this Cao Xing is truly dead for sure!"

In its view, being targeted by a deity, even a deity without a divine godhead, was an extremely terrifying existence!

And more importantly, it heard another piece of news.

That was, the God of Light might be coming out.

Moreover, this deity had also promised itself that as long as he came out, he would give it extremely powerful strength.

It would leap to breakthrough to Legendary, and then let this Cao Xing see what true power was!

Thinking of this, the Seed of Light was almost so excited it was about to jump up.

Right at this moment, that vast will seemed to realize something.

"Shen Shengjie, have you contacted any powerful existences recently?"

The young man below pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, Respected God of Light."

"This location of ours is extremely secret, and currently no one has noticed it."

"Alright, I know."

"That Otherworld Lord, let him be for a period of time recently."

"What we need to do now is to let blood—appear as soon as possible."

"Right, if you encounter that kind of powerful enemy next time, go open the underground seal, and the existence below will help you sort everything out."

The expression of the Seed of Light flickered slightly.

Then it respectfully said, "As you command, great God of Light."

At the same time.

On a mountain peak about a hundred kilometers away from this stronghold,

an existence with white hair and beard, wearing battle armor, was gazing into the distance.

And beside him, there was also a completely pitch-black goshawk following him.

He concealed the aura on his body, looking like an ordinary person.

His dark green pupils, like jewels, swept across a certain area ahead.

"The location detected by the King of Spirit-Vision Goshawks is right around here."

"This is also the only place within several thousand kilometers around that made it feel something was wrong."

"However—I haven't found any anomalies."

"The Church of Light hides so deeply—"

Right at this moment, he seemed to realize something.

He instantly held his breath, concealing his aura to the absolute limit.

Until a peculiar fluctuation swept across his body.

After a long while, he exhaled slightly.

Then, a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.

"Interesting—a fluctuation of divine power actually appeared in such a place—"

"It seems this time, I've really found the right place."

"Church of Light, next, it is time to wipe all of you out in one go!"

Thinking of this, this white-haired old man jumped directly onto the back of the goshawk.

Then, turning into a shadow, he flew rapidly in the direction of the border.
