161: Ancient Life Swift Shadow Stele (1/3)

The Level 99 Monarch of the Light Church was awakening.

Li Si didn't want to get entangled and immediately activated Great Teleportation Technique, his figure vanishing on the spot.

"Who dares to run wild in the Light Church's territory?"

The Light Bishop floated in the air, his face grim as he overlooked the ruins. He had only been in seclusion for three years, and the Light Church had been destroyed?

At this moment, the empty treasury came into view, making the Light Bishop's expression even more unsightly.

"Who—!!"

A roar filled with anger echoed throughout Steel City.

"Crash!"

A figure crawled out from the architectural ruins, kneeling on the ground and crying out, "Your Grace, it was an ancient demonic eagle. That demonic eagle was cruel and ruthless, not only killing Cardinal John Light but also stealing the light heart."

"An ancient demonic eagle? It must be the Abyssal Truth Society, those damned fallen ones, they've appeared again." The Light Bishop's expression turned solemn.

Had the Abyssal Truth Society set their sights on the light heart?

"Your Grace, the Light Church has been destroyed. How should I respond? Do we rebuild?" the figure asked.

"Notify the Steel City Lord and have him dispatch craftsmen to repair all facilities of the Light Church, ensuring not a single detail is missed. Furthermore, from now on, you are the new Cardinal," the Light Bishop said coldly.

"Thank you for your promotion, Your Grace!"

"Beep!"

"Steel Main City Announcement: The Light Church has issued an urgent quest—Repair the Light Church. Players, please participate actively."

A system prompt popped up before the players in Steel City.

Hand of God was stunned.

The Light Church destroyed? How was that possible? That black eagle's strength was actually terrifying to such an extent.

Just as he was shocked, a squad of soldiers suddenly appeared.

"Hand of God, you have been chosen. Come with me."

"Chosen for what?"

"To rebuild the Light Church," the soldier captain said with a forced smile.

This fellow named Hand of God was the person personally designated by the new Cardinal, so he had to be taken to rebuild the church.

...

Luanxing City.

Li Si returned to the Eternal Guild's stronghold, his figure appearing in the plaza.

He took out the [Random Building Blueprint].

Buildings required open space, so the spacious and vast plaza was a good spot.

Great Replication Technique!

Great Luck Technique!

Li Si's luck value instantly soared to 880 points.

"Pop—"

The building blueprint tore apart, emitting a dazzling light that rapidly expanded in the air. A moment later, a stone monument appeared out of thin air.

[Ancient Life Swift Shadow Stele] (Legendary)

Type: Guild Building

Effect ①: All guild members gain +1000 base HP and +10 base movement speed.

Effect ②: Worship. Set worship conditions. Once any player meets the worship conditions, they can receive attribute bonuses. Each worship lasts for 24 hours. Current worship conditions not set.

Description: An ancient stele, imbued with vitality and mobility.

...

"What an awesome building!"

Li Si was amazed; it could actually increase attributes for guild members and even earn money.

Let's set the worship condition to 100 gold coins per worship.

Including the teleportation array fee, each player would spend 200 gold coins per worship.

And these 200 gold coins would all end up in Li Si's pocket.

"Whoosh—"

He activated Great Teleportation Technique and rushed to Divine Smith Valley.

He needed to adjust the level of the Great Wilderness Bow quickly, otherwise, he might accidentally forget again.

Meanwhile, in the Eternal Guild's chat channel, it was lively.

Netherworld Soul Chaser spoke in shock: "What the heck is going on? My HP suddenly increased by 1800 points. ( ¯▽¯; )"

"My HP increased by 2400 points, and my movement speed increased by 23 points." Chatterbox Shadow immediately followed Netherworld Soul Chaser's rhythm.

"Hehe (¬‿¬), the attribute bonus comes from the Ancient Life Swift Shadow Stele, a new building the Guild Master obtained," Bai Yuèyue said in the chat channel.

"Crazy God plus, I just wanted to get some title attributes, but I didn't expect to be able to benefit from guild buildings too. Hehe, little Bai, want to go for a ride in my car? (｡♦‿♦｡)" Evening, the horny guy, showed up, sniffing out the opportunity.

"Crazy God is awesome!"

"One title, one building, that's equivalent to two pieces of equipment."

"Hehe, isn't it!"

"Brothers, let's all work hard, take guild quests, and get a few more guild buildings."

...

At the same time, in Everlasting City, a lone player discovered the Ancient Life Swift Shadow Stele.

"Huh?"

"Why is there suddenly a stone monument here?"

"Oh my god!"

"This stone monument can actually increase attributes!"

"Lasts for 24 hours!"

The lone player's eyes widened, his mind furiously calculating: After gaining the worship attributes, increased HP would allow him to fight higher-level monsters and earn more gold. Increased movement speed would reduce damage taken, saving a lot of potions.

"Worth it!"

"Very worth it."

"It's only 100 gold coins."

"Worship!"

The lone player decisively chanted in his mind.

The ancient stone monument immediately cast a ray of light, enveloping the lone player's head.

"Haha!"

"It really increased HP limit and movement speed!"

"Quickly tell Mom and Dad this news."

And so, the word-of-mouth phenomenon was born, spreading from one to ten, from ten to a hundred. In just a moment, tens of thousands of people knew about the ancient stone monument.

"Have you heard?"

"A stone monument appeared in Crazy God's guild stronghold!"

"It can increase attributes!"

At this moment, players who were reluctant to go to Everlasting City, or who found the teleportation array fees expensive, rushed to take the teleportation array to Everlasting City, vying with each other.

"Haha!"

"It really can increase HP and movement speed!"

"Level 42 zone, let's form a party and go."

"You're Level 35, and you want to go to a Level 42 zone?"

"So what? With 10 points of movement speed, I can go!"

"Hehe, I worshipped 10 times in one go, lasting 240 hours."

"Oh my god? You're the smart one!"

"Worship duration can stack?"

...

Inside Divine Smith Valley.

"Beep!"

"Congratulations! You have obtained 100 gold coins."

"Congratulations! You have obtained 1000 gold coins."

"Congratulations! You have obtained 200 gold coins."

"Congratulations! You have obtained 500 gold coins."

System prompts continuously popped up before his eyes.

Li Si felt annoyed.

Hadn't he already blocked the income notifications?

He used his mind to open the settings interface to check.

He found that there were many types of income notifications: rent income, teleportation array income, shop income... and over thirty other types of income notifications.

"Block all income notifications."

In an instant, a mute symbol appeared in front of over thirty types of income notifications.

Li Si manually checked to unblock trade notifications.

Trade notifications still needed to be open.

Then, he checked the Great Wilderness Bow and battle star heavy mountain shield in his weapon slots.

[Great Wilderness Sun-Shooting Bow] (Legendary)

Forging Technique - Level Adjustment: Adjusting the level of the Great Wilderness Sun-Shooting Bow requires consuming great wilderness stone. Each level adjustment consumes 1 great wilderness stone.

[battle star heavy mountain shield] (Mythical)
