#660 · 660 of 2210

Sediment Era? Shadow, you’re a bit ahead of the curve!

Originally, Qin Feng thought that evolving a skill beyond the Immortal-grade would lead to something like Eternal-grade or Chaos-grade…

After all, isn't that how it's always written in novels?

He never expected it to become an Old Days skill.

"Beyond Immortal-grade lies Old Days?"

"And what's more, even among Old Days skills or equipment, there's a distinction based on their Sediment Era?"

"Old Days skills and equipment—the longer their Sediment Era, the stronger their effects, the higher their attributes, and they also consume additional divinity, creating suppression against Divinity Special Skills and divinity rules!"

This was something Qin Feng had completely failed to anticipate.

And Old Days equipment and skills reminded Qin Feng of something…

That was the 'old days catastrophe snake tooth' he possessed.

From Sister Yuan, he had learned that this item belonged to the category of old days creature parts.

"So, through normal channels… are Old Days skill books and equipment only obtainable by hunting Old Creatures?"

"The more ancient the Old Creature, the more likely it is to drop Old Days equipment and skill books with longer Sediment Eras…"

"It seems the real challenge in the Order Land is these Old Creatures, hidden who-knows-where?"

For a civilization to undergo Ascension, it requires the combined strength of the entire civilization to defeat an Immortal-grade BOSS.

But that doesn't mean players from a Sublimation Civilization can easily hunt Immortal-grade BOSSes.

First, the BOSS levels in the Order Land are higher.

Second, BOSS hunts in the Order Land no longer involve the entire player base of a civilization working together.

Even if that many people actually went…

How would the loot be divided?

Therefore, Qin Feng speculated that in the Order Land, Old Days Grade equipment and skill books were equally rare. For the vast majority of players, Legendary and Mythic gear would remain the mainstream combat equipment.

After all, the requirement to even reach the Order Land is having at least a full set of Mythic equipment…

So Mythic is the baseline.

Beyond that, Ancient-level and Immortal-grade equipment and skill books belong to a higher tier, not something everyone has the capability to obtain.

And Old Days Grade items are even rarer!

"So after all this, there's such a massive tier between Immortal-grade and Primordial-Level…"

"Old Days Year 0, Old Days Year 10, Old Days Year 100, Old Days Year 1000…"

"Where does it even end?"

"It seems almost endless!"

However, precisely because of this, the 'Primordial-Level' truly revealed its 'prestige'.

Primordial-Level items didn't seem to be obtainable through the normal progression of the God Forsaken Game!

Only through special channels or specific challenges was there a minuscule probability of obtaining them.

"It seems Primordial-Level items are all related to the Great Authority…"

"That's truly not something ordinary players can lay a finger on."

"I just wonder, in the Order Land, how many years have the Old Days equipment and skills of those powerful players sedimented?"

The bad news was that the old-timers in the Order Land certainly included many individuals with a wealth of highly sedimented Old Days Grade equipment and skills!

But the good news was…

Qin Feng could use evolution points to directly increase the Sediment Era of his Old Days skills!

"Only skills can be upgraded, not equipment, same as before."

"And the upgrade cost is way too high, isn't it?"

Qin Feng took a quick look and discovered that upgrading the Old Days Grade 'Annihilation Killing Blade' to 'Old Days · 1 Year' would require consuming 100,000 evolution points!

100,000 evolution points for one year? Wouldn't reaching 100 years require 10 million evolution points?

"Are you kidding me?"

Even Qin Feng was taken aback by this!

But still, it was okay!

Qin Feng realized that development in the Order Land would absolutely be a protracted process…

Even he would find it difficult to progress at the speed he had on Blue Star.

"Qin Wuyue has already been developing for two hundred years."

"If I had two hundred years, how many evolution points could I earn?"

Qin Feng didn't even dare to imagine!

In fact, one wouldn't even need to go to the Order Land…

Just heading to the Youlan Civilization, to the God Forsaken Game region currently undergoing its Ascension process, would present more Mythic BOSSes, and even Ancient-level BOSSes or Immortal-grade BOSSes might appear!

Once Qin Feng got there, harvesting them would be incredibly satisfying, wouldn't it?

When Qin Feng snapped back to reality…

He finally began examining the evolutionary changes of this 'Annihilation Killing Blade'.

"The blink distance is farther. Combined with my current 14x skill range, 1600 meters becomes 22.4 kilometers!"

"Instantly blinking to any location within 22.4 kilometers to deliver a lethal strike…"

Qin Feng felt that his current self was terrifyingly strong!

And a skill like this, without the 'Original Shadow Perception' skill to complement it, Qin Feng wouldn't be able to utilize it effectively at all. After all, if he couldn't see what was so far away, how could he blink there?

But with Original Shadow Perception, it was different.

All the surrounding circumstances were completely within Qin Feng's 'sight', allowing him to control everything!

"The base physical damage has also quadrupled, equivalent to the damage of four Instant Extinctions."

"The instant death gauge accumulated per second has also doubled. Going from zero to 100% now only takes 0.7 seconds!"

"Most importantly… targets hit by this skill will have their instant death gauge reduction cut in half!"

This was easy to understand.

For example, Qin Feng's old days catastrophe snake tooth takes effect every 4.5 seconds, each time removing 100% of the superior meter on Qin Feng.

If Qin Feng were hit by this Old Days Grade 'Annihilation Killing Blade', then each activation of the old days catastrophe snake tooth would only be able to remove 50% of the instant death gauge on him.

The same applied to any other removal methods, unless the divinity consumed by that skill exceeded that of the 'Annihilation Killing Blade'…

"In other words, once in the Order Land, it's all about divinity suppression?"

"The higher the divinity, the greater the advantage."

"Moreover, the special effects of Old Days skills and equipment consume additional divinity corresponding to their Sediment Era when used…"

Qin Feng murmured softly.

Hearing Qin Feng's words, the Frost Elf Ling Che hovering around him replied with a somewhat helpless tone: "In the Order Land, aside from those top-tier powerhouses, most players play by Order, not divinity… Shadow, your level is a bit ahead of the curve."

"Huh?"

Qin Feng was covered in question marks.

Order?

Wasn't Order something that could be broken with a bit of divinity? In the Order Land, they still played with that stuff?

But on second thought, it seemed quite normal…

After all, the name 'Order Land' itself contains the word 'Order'!

"I'm ahead of the curve?"

Qin Feng looked at the 'Illusion Bracelet Divine Endowment' on him, feeling a bit confused.

This thing had already accumulated several thousand divinity. If they were playing by Order, who could possibly outplay him?

Ling Che seemed to sense Qin Feng's mood and suddenly became more serious: "Shadow, you shouldn't be too overconfident. Even playing by Order, you might not necessarily outplay others…"

"While you can consume divinity to negate the effects of others' Order, if your opponent has too many Orders, the divinity you'd need to consume would be immense!"

"After all, powerhouses in the Order Land have anywhere from dozens to hundreds of Orders integrated into their beings… To simultaneously negate all those Orders, the divinity consumed wouldn't be simply tens or hundreds of times more, but would accumulate with additional multipliers!"

"Not to mention others… just take that Purple Fairy you keep in your guild. If a real fight broke out, she could instantly drain all your divinity~"

Hearing this, Qin Feng was even more astonished.

Sister Yuan?

She could drain me dry in a fight?

Qin Feng was somewhat shocked. He realized that Sister Yuan's level seemed even higher than he had imagined?

"Alright, since you put it that way, I'll test it out when I get back."

Loaded with over a hundred pieces of equipment, Qin Feng took out a teleport stone, ready to head home!

This harvest was quite good.

Next, he needed to settle down and digest the successive gains he had recently acquired.

Three Bloodline slots were still waiting for him to find Bloodline monsters.

The 'god chosen slate' from the dream illusion god rutas could still grant three more god chosen attributes.

Additionally…

Qin Feng still needed to quickly reach level 45!
