Global Demon King: Starting as the Abyssal Dragon
chapter-343

Conquering an empire-level force by a Demon King was unprecedented. This was the first time it had ever happened. Although it was mainly Zhang Nu's work, Han Kexin, as the second-in-command of Darkness City, had contributed her fair share.

With Zhang Nu's permission, she opened the empire chest on his behalf.

[You've opened the "Thunder Empire Treasure Chest"!]

[You've activated the title: Thunder Demon Emperor!]

[You've gained "Gold" x80 billion, "Blueprint: Demon King's Reincarnation Tower" x1, "Blueprint: Demon King's Heavenly Altar" x1, "Blueprint: Demon King's Eternal World", "Level 6 Special Building Upgrade Scroll" x1, "Level 5 Special Building Upgrade Scroll" x20, "Level 5 Building Upgrade Scroll" x100, "Thirteen Elemental Gems" x4 million each, "Tome of the Demon King" x1...]

Eighty billion gold! Over fifty million gems! Dozens, even hundreds of building upgrade scrolls! Han Kexin was utterly stunned by the sheer magnitude of these rewards. Besides the ludicrous amount of resources, the reward included three special blueprints and an item that appeared to be equipment.

Her attention was immediately drawn to this piece of equipment, as it emitted an incredibly powerful aura. It looked like a tome, ancient and unadorned, seemingly carved from a thick slab of stone. Despite its plain appearance, it exuded an aura far stronger than any epic-grade equipment she had ever seen. This item was definitely extraordinary!

Han Kexin took out the tome.

[Tome of the Demon King] Divine-grade item, exclusive to Demon Kings. Four stats +5000, MP +100,000, HP +100,000, recovery effects +500%. Provides the ability to cast spells from thirteen different schools up to S-rank and bestows the Demon King with the ability to create resources.

A divine-grade item! Han Kexin was astonished. The moment she held the item, she felt a tremendous surge in her power. The temporary boost in various stats and skills was enough to elevate her from a Level 6 legendary Demon King to a top-tier legendary entity. This was beyond powerful. She had never seen anything like it.

However, the Tome of the Demon King wasn't strictly an item; it was more of an auxiliary tool. Divine-grade items were incredibly rare, each with the power to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. The unique qualities of this tome made it one of a kind.

Apart from being a potent item, the Tome of the Demon King could also create mountains, plains, lakes, and mines out of thin air. Essentially, it could alter the landscape to generate resources. This ability had significant implications for a territory. In theory, as long as there was enough MP, Zhang Nu could elevate an unreachable underground gold mine to the surface, transforming it into a vast open-pit mine.

Additionally, he could create forests, gather spiritual energy to form spirit fields, rivers, and lakes out of thin air. This meant that with sufficient MP, the Chaos Federation would never have to worry about resource shortages. Han Kexin then examined the three special blueprints obtained from the treasure chest: the Reincarnation Tower, the Heavenly Altar, and the Eternal World. Although she couldn't determine their exact functions before construction, the brief descriptions and information provided indicated their extraordinary nature.

First was the Reincarnation Tower. This blueprint could only be utilized by Demon Kings who had reached Level 6 or above and was exclusively obtainable from treasure chests of conquered empire-level forces. In other words, only those who successfully conquered an empire could acquire this special blueprint.

The Reincarnation Tower had a unique function. When a Demon King grew tired of their current world or had exhausted all possibilities, they could use the Reincarnation Tower to reincarnate into another world. In simple terms, it was a ticket, or a pass, to the next stage or world. Only Demon Kings who had conquered empires could obtain the key to the next level of the game or world.

Even if a player entered a new world, the achievements from the current world would not disappear. Players could return to this world through death or other means, retaining the territories and abilities acquired here. So far, only the Darkness City had the capability to build a Reincarnation Tower, and only the Demon King of the Darkness City possessed the potential to explore new worlds.

As for the other two blueprints, the Heavenly Altar was likely an extremely special type of altar, while the Eternal World seemed to involve creating a resource-rich, material world exclusively for Darkness City. However, the specific details would only become clear after their construction.

Compared to these blueprints, Han Kexin was currently more interested in the "Level 6 Special Building Upgrade Scroll" obtained from the treasure chest. A Level 6 upgrade scroll implied the ability to create a Level 7 building. Han Kexin's first thought was of the World Tree. Among all the buildings in the Chaos Forest, the World Tree was undoubtedly the most comprehensive and cost-effective due to its mysterious and powerful nature.

The World Tree was already astonishingly powerful. If it could be upgraded further to Level 7, it would become even more formidable. Even if the Church's allied forces arrived, it would be difficult for them to penetrate the Chaos Forest or disrupt its terrain, thanks to the enhanced World Tree.

At the same time, in the castle of Darkness City, Zhang Nu was at a critical breakthrough stage. He had not lost consciousness and could remain clear-headed, even able to communicate with Han Kexin through the player interface.

Han Kexin opened the treasure chest with Zhang Nu's permission. Upon opening the chest, Zhang Nu received a new title, "Thunder Demon Emperor," similar to his titles "Supreme Overlord of Pale Moon" and "Ruler of Chaos Forest," but even more powerful in its effects.

......

[Title: Thunder Demon Emperor] Legendary Title.

MP +50,000 permanently

HP +50,000 permanently

Four stats +3000

When within the boundaries of Thunder Empire, further increase in HP and MP by 50,000, all stats +125%, recovery speed +500%, regional teleportation is enabled.

Under your rule, the resources of the Thunder Empire +30%, all citizens' stats +25%, loyalty of the citizens +20%, aging speed -20%.

You can command the power of the empire's spirit, greatly enhancing your own or specific targets' strength and levels.You may appoint two proxy kings within the empire, who receive a stat bonus +25%, HP +30,000, aging speed -80%, recovery speed +80%.

......

The effects were exceptionally strong. The Thunder Empire was vast, and its empire's spirit was substantial. Moreover, the title itself offered significant stats boosts, greatly enhancing Zhang Nu's power.

Of course, at this moment, Zhang Nu was not particularly focused on these details. He had reached the most critical stage of his ascension. If anyone could see Zhang Nu's current state, they would be astonished to find that he no longer had a physical form.

The entire grand hall of the Darkness City castle was enveloped in a mass of chaos. This chaos appeared like mist but was actually a special power formed within the void, completely elusive and indescribable.

Zhang Nu's body had disappeared. As he crossed the final threshold and advanced to Level 7, Zhang Nu was no longer just an Abyssal Dragon. He was becoming the Chaos Dragon God. A Chaos Dragon God was born from chaos and had no specific form. During this advancement process, Zhang Nu was reshaping himself to emerge as a new, transcendent dragon entity.

Then, he would engage in a decisive battle, sweeping away all potential enemies and ultimately achieving the most complete conquest.
