Tower of Domains!

A crimson kill notification popped up before his eyes.

Under normal circumstances, Chen Ming would have completed all the requirements for the dungeon realm by now, allowing him to leave and finish his Tier 4 Advancement Trial.

However, under the influence of the [Supreme] quest, the dungeon did not end.

Above the destroyed [demon source],

a black spatial vortex slowly emerged.

This vortex was none other than the entrance to clear the [City of Corruption].

According to the requirements of the [Supreme] quest, after passing through the [Hells Demon Grotto] dungeon realm, Chen Ming still had to head to the [City of Corruption] to kill the Fallen City Lord and obtain the item [boundless key] from its hands.

Looking at the slowly rotating black vortex above his head, Chen Ming did not enter immediately.

Instead, he turned his gaze toward the destroyed [demon source].

In the dried-up and cracked [demon source], there was actually a black orb of light.

Chen Ming jumped into the [demon source], leaning down to pick up the black orb.

【Demon Source Core】

【Quality: God Grade.】

【Effect: Upon use, constructs a special building—demon source. All non-allied units within the demonic energy emitted by the demon source take 300 points of true damage per second.】

【Hint: Through the Demon Source Core, it can continuously level up and grow by devouring souls.】

【Description: Demonic energy shrouds the world.】

... "An architectural item."

Chen Ming's eyes lit up.

If he built this [demon source] in his future main city, it could serve as a natural protective barrier.

Without his permission, any enemy who stepped inside would suffer 300 points of true damage every second.

Moreover, the [demon source] constructed via the [Demon Source Core] seemed capable of infinite growth.

"Good stuff!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Ming decisively activated his Forbidden Talent to enhance it.

Buzz~

With a thought from Chen Ming, a faint light bloomed from his hand, quickly enveloping the [Demon Source Core].

【Ding! You have activated your Forbidden Talent on the target [Demon Source Core], obtaining a Tier 2 enhancement.】

【Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained a special item—Domain Core (Eternal-Grade).】

【Ding! You have activated your Forbidden Talent on the target [Demon Source Core], successfully adding a Golden Affix: Heart of Absolute Self.】

【Domain Core】

【Quality: Eternal-Grade.】

【Effect: Upon use, constructs a special building—Domain Tower.】

【Domain Tower.】

【Effect 1: All non-allied targets within the domain deployed by the Domain Tower take 5,000 points of true damage per second.】

【Coverage Area: 10,000m x 10,000m.】

【Hint: The Domain Tower can continuously level up and grow by devouring souls.】

【Added Affix: Heart of Absolute Self (Golden): Affix Effect 1: For every tier the Domain Tower advances, a new effect can be unlocked.

Affix Effect 2: All allied targets within the range of the Domain Tower will subtly increase their faith/loyalty toward the controller of the Domain Tower.】

【Description: Under the heavens, is there any land that is not the King's?!!】

... "This effect..."

"This affix..."

Chen Ming clicked his tongue in amazement.

It was too perverse.

Especially the effect of the affix [Heart of Absolute Self], which subtly increased the loyalty and faith of all allied units within the domain.

Over a long period, it could even turn the other party into his own slave or servant.

Once this Domain Tower was built in his future main city, its significance would be self-evident.

"As expected of an item of Eternal-Grade quality."

Chen Ming took a deep breath and decisively stored the [Domain Core] in his inventory.

Once the main city was successfully built, he would construct the Domain Tower immediately.

Thump, thump, thump!!

Just then, a series of heavy footsteps suddenly rang out.

Chen Ming instinctively looked toward the direction of the sound.

He saw the [Nine Spirit Primordial Sage] walking over step by step, carrying the corpse of the [Demon Realm Apostle] and a grey orb of light in its mouth.

"Good job!"

With a thought, Chen Ming recalled the [Nine Spirit Primordial Sage] along with the army of bosses back into the [30% Authority of the God of All Beasts].

After doing all this, Chen Ming took the grey orb of light dropped upon the [Demon Realm Apostle]'s death into his hand.

【Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained Gold Coins +8.52 million.】

【Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained equipment—Blade of Ten Thousand Demons (Legendary-Grade).】

【Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained equipment—Shield of Ten Thousand Demons (Legendary-Grade).】

【Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained skill scroll—Blade Master (Legendary-Grade).】

【Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained skill scroll—Shield Master (Legendary-Grade).】

... Not bad at all. The [Demon Realm Apostle] dropped a total of four Legendary-Grade items/scrolls.

A blade and a shield.

Along with their corresponding skill scrolls.

Unfortunately, these items weren't of much use to Chen Ming himself.

"If I remember correctly, among the Warrior-type hidden classes, there is one called the Blade-Shield Warrior."

"A blade and a shield—it's a perfect match for these pieces of equipment and skill scrolls."

"And among all Warrior-type hidden classes, the Blade-Shield Warrior is the most common."

"Out of ten Warrior hidden classes, six are Blade-Shield Warriors."

Muttering softly, a hint of a smile appeared on the corner of Chen Ming's mouth.

One could imagine that if these two pieces of equipment and the skill scrolls were put up for auction, those Blade-Shield Warriors would probably go crazy for them.

"Let me add some more fuel to the fire for them."

Muttering to himself, Chen Ming simultaneously activated his Forbidden Talent on the equipment and skill scrolls.

In just a moment, the quality of all four items was elevated from Legendary-Grade to Mythical-Grade.

Having finished this, Chen Ming opened the [Auction House] with a thought and bundled the four items together to list them.

The suggested price given by the [Auction House] was 1.37 billion.

Chen Ming thought for a moment and directly set the starting price to 1 Gold Coin, then opted for the auction mode.

Auction duration: 6 hours.

Each bid must not be less than 1 million Gold Coins.

After completing everything, he decisively chose to list them.

Just as Chen Ming had guessed, as soon as these four items hit the Auction House, they caused a massive uproar.

Especially for those players who had changed classes to Blade-Shield Warrior; their eyes turned red with greed.

There was no helping it; these four items were simply too perfectly aligned with the class characteristics of a Blade-Shield Warrior.

It was practically a match made in heaven.

10k... 100k... 5.62 million...

38.54 million... In just a few short minutes, the price of these four items skyrocketed from 1 Gold Coin to a staggering 1.5 billion Gold Coins, and it was still continuously rising.

A large number of players also sent private messages to Chen Ming, offering incredible prices to buy these four items privately.

Chen Ming didn't even spare them a glance.

Simply because, at this moment, his attention was drawn to the corpse of the [Demon Realm Apostle].

"Arise!"

As Chen Ming pointed with one hand, the effect of [30% Authority of the God of All Beasts] activated.

The already deceased [Demon Realm Apostle] wobbled as it stood up from the ground, prostrating itself respectfully at Chen Ming's feet.

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Ming directly activated his Forbidden Talent to perform enhancement and enchantment...
