Xuanyuan Qi, Johns, and the other Inheritors from the Divine and Infernal factions were working hard to level up, working hard to learn their Demesnes and increase their power.
However, the World Announcement had caused them to become mad like dogs as they worked even harder to increase their power.
Ding. World Announcement: Congratulations to “Shifter Emperor” on forging the first Post-Creation Absolute Artifact. The player has been specially rewarded with 10,000 Three Worlds Reputation, 10 Heavenly Saint level ores, and 100 drops of Sacred Blood!
They had never expected that Jiang Feng would already have the ability to forge a Post-Creation Absolute Artifact.
If Jiang Feng was able to forge an entire set of Post-Creation Absolute Artifacts, the difference in strength between them would grow even larger.
That was why they desired strength so much as they wanted to shorten the gap between them and Jiang Feng.
Of course, some of the elites from the Divines and Infernals almost had a mental breakdown.
“Ugh… The Shifter Emperor is just… Why did he increase his powers so quickly? He is forcing us to increase our power day and night to the point where I’m already on the verge of collapse!”
“I want to resign! I don’t want to do this anymore! I’m envious of those unaffiliated players now! They can play the game however they like!”
“I know, right? If I knew that this is how it would be like, I wouldn’t be so greedy. But with the contract, I can’t resign even if I want to.
…
After the Artifact Calamity had disappeared, Jiang Feng looked at the silver bow in front of him excitedly.
This was the first Post-Creation Absolute Artifact that he had created, and it was very special to him.
Skybreak Bow: Rank One Post-Creation Absolute Artifact
Introduction: Created by the Shifter Emperor Jiang Feng. Its power is absolute.
Bow Range +200%
Bow Speed +200%
Critical Rate +30%
Sacred Attack +200%
…
“Holy, this bow is amazing! The stats that it boosts are so overpowered!”
Jiang Feng was shocked when he looked at the stats that the Skybreak Bow boosted.
Range, rate of fire, critical and Sacred Attacks were all stats that were important to an archer. He did not expect that the weapon would have all of it.
With this weapon, Huang Zhong’s power would be increased by at least two to threefold.
Huang Zhong looked at the shimmering Skybreak Bow in Jiang Feng’s hand. He was so excited that he quickly came before Jiang Feng and kept on pointing to himself as he said, “Let… let me see…”
While he was very excited, he knew that the weapon was created by Jiang Feng. If he grabbed it directly, Jiang Feng might get offended and even kill him.
But now, he was worried that Jiang Feng would take the weapon away and would not give it to him.
Huang Zhong was feeling very conflicted right now.
Jiang Feng looked at Huang Zhong glancing at the Skybreak Bow then glancing at him excitedly. Naturally, he knew how Huang Zhong was feeling. He then smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I’m the Shifter Emperor. I am not going to lose a general just because of a Post-Creation Absolute Artifact. If I can forge one Post-Creation Absolute Artifact, then I can forge the second one!”
After he finished saying so, he then passed the Skybreak Bow to Huang Zhong.
“Thank you, Shifter Emperor. From now on, my life is yours to command!” Huang Zhong accepted the Skybreak Bow and said to Jiang Feng with gratitude.
To him, not only did Jiang Feng pass him a weapon, but Jiang Feng also gave him his trust.
Ding. System Prompt: Congratulations, you have recruited Huang Zhong.
Ding. System Prompt: Congratulations on completing the second stage of the “Awaken the Qin” plot quest by recruiting Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, and fifty other Generals. You have received 100 drops of Sacred Blood and Key to the Qin Nation.
“The reward is quite bad this time,” Jiang Feng said as he remembered that last time, he was at least given one of the equipment for the Shifter Emperor Set Equipment. This time, there was only Sacred Blood and a Key. The last equipment of the Shifter Emperor Equipment Set did not appear.
Now, he already had two out of three of the Shifter Emperor Equipment Set. He just needed the last one and he would have the whole set.
Key to the Qin Nation: The Key to open up the Qin Nation.
He did not even know where the keyhole to the Qin Nation was. He immediately threw it into the Lianyao Flask.
“There’s one last stage of this plot quest. It seems that I have to spend some time to find this Xu Fu!”
The third part of the quest was to kill Xu Fu and to find King Qin’s soul fragments. Once he had found where the Qin Nation was, he then needed to awaken it.
After completing the second stage of his plot quest, he then used the town portal scroll to leave the mountains and returned to the Shifter Emperor’s Palace together with Huang Zhong.
As the Plot Quest still had one last stage, he was not going to rush through it.
Now that the Shifters Faction was almost ready, he was going to gather all the gods for the Manuscript of the Gods.
Only when the gods were complete would the Manuscript of the Gods be activated and he could then use it.
His guess was that the World War was approaching. And he was going to make the necessary preparations earlier.
However, he did not plan to leave the slots for the members of the Shifters faction only.
There were 365 slots. There were not that many elites in the Shifter faction. He did not want those that were not powerful. He wanted the Crème De La Crème.
And that was why he was going to recruit far and wide by promising divinity.
Let the players and NPCs who have the ability and power in the game fight for a spot to become a god and activate the War of the Gods.
He had always brought along the Manuscript of the Gods.
Perhaps it was because of the increase in his power, or maybe because he already had four gods, a new skill appeared.
The skill was called “Altar of the Gods.”
Altar of the Gods: When this skill is used, you may place Altars of the Gods on the Divine Dominion Continent or Silvermoon. Once the Altars of the Gods have been set up, they would activate in 5 hours’ time. Those who managed to get on the altar the fastest would be bestowed divinity.
“All those that have become gods within the Manuscript of the Gods would have similar rank and stats with me once all the gods’ spots have been filled up. That would mean I will have around 300 super followers!” Jiang Feng took out the Manuscript of the Gods in his hand, and then said excitedly, “Activate the Altar of the Gods.”
Next, two maps appeared in front of him.
One of them was the map of the Divine Dominion Continent, and the other was the map of Silvermoon.
Next, he began to use both his hands to tap on the map, setting up the location of the 100 Altars.
The only reason that he placed 100 altars was that he was still going to leave some spots for the Shifters faction.
Ding. World Announcement: The Altars of the Gods have been activated. Players and NPCs can all fight for a spot to be bestowed divinity. All players that have received divinity would have their powers greatly increased once the spots in the Manuscript of the Gods have been filled up. The location of the Altars of the Gods have been sent to your Friend panel. Wish you all luck in obtaining divinity!
As soon as the world announcement was made, all the players and NPCs in-game were in an uproar.
Many of the players gave up on leveling and headed straight to the coordinates given to them to look for the Altar of the Gods.
While the NPCs could not receive the coordinates, they could follow the players. That was why many of the NPCs had made their move.

South of the Royal Qin City, Silvermoon.
Ling Chen was pulling the arm of a beauty as he said with a smile, “Don’t get angry, Wife. I have asked my sister for a Rank 5 Sacred Artifact for archers. I’ll give it to you, alright?”
The beauty next to Ling Chen snorted coldly and said unhappily, “I don’t want Sacred Artifacts. I want a Post-Creation Absolute Artifact. Isn’t the Shifter Emperor your in-law? He just forged a Post-Creation Absolute Artifact. Get it from him and give it to me, then I will agree to your marriage proposal!”
The beauty’s name was called Xia Ranfei. He was also Ling Chen’s peer and also from a rich family. However, she herself was quite obnoxious.
She looked at Ling Chen next to him and snickered deep down as she planned on how to obtain that Post-Creation Absolute Artifact bow that Jiang Feng had forged.
Boom!
Just as Ling Chen was going to say something, a platform suddenly crashed in front of them.
Looking at the platform, the two of them were slightly stunned.
Next, a world announcement rang in their ears. In the next second, both of them became excited.
Xia Ranfei even pointed at the platform in front of her and said to Ling Chen excitedly, “Teehee, I didn’t expect the Altar of the Gods to appear right in front of us! Little Chen Chen, help me defend the Altar of the Gods and when I gain divinity, I will marry you!”
