It was still important for him to upgrade his Engineering skills; there were plenty useful items that would require Engineering to use. As such, Lu Li decided to learn this recipe himself.

He used some points and successfully took the Gnomish Poultryizer recipe.

Since Engineering was such a luxurious and expensive trade skill, most players weren’t interested in it. There were 23 players here, but only Lu Li had learned engineering.

"Rare material, Demon’s Horn," Remnant Dream announced as she reached out her hands and looted an item.

Lu Li’s eyes lit up and he used his points again to take the item. Nobody fought for it with him anyway since he was the one who found this secret zone.

This was a high-tier demon material, and based on what Remulos had told him, he could fuse this into his Supreme Ring.

It was hard to say what would happen if he fused a single rare material into the ring. Lu Li planned to stock up on more materials before he headed to an altar to try this out. The best-case scenario was for him to find Malfurion as soon as possible.

Besides these issues, the Demon’s Horn was still a very popular rare material.

It could be used to forge weapons, particularly daggers and swords, and was also often used in Engineering and alchemy.

There was nothing else afterwards.

Lu Li wasn’t interested in the other average materials and gear. They were split by the main tanks and the healers as maintenance fees since they were constantly drinking a lot of potions.

Unfortunately, there weren’t any decent weapon Molds. It had been a while since Lu Li had seen a good weapon Mold.

With a Dark Gold Mold, Lu Li could forge a Fine grade or even an Exquisite grade equip. In terms of value, it would be even better than a Dark Gold equip by itself.

Lu Li studied the corpse for a bit, then brought his ring beside it and began to chant spells.

This was the method that was passed down to him by Remulos to absorb the blood of Burning Legion members – it was a higher form of fusion.

Although this demon hadn’t joined the Burning Legion, his attributes and bloodline were identical to the Burning Legion members.

A mist of blood that glowed black appeared from the corpse and formed into a mini demon.

It was as if this form had its own life. Everyone could hear its sad cry; it wasn’t hard to imagine that it feared for the ceremony ahead.

Perhaps, from this point onwards, it would never live again.

As the mist of blood was dragged into the ring, Lu Li felt the temperature of the ring rise and a blood-colored totem appeared on its surface. The cry of the demon had stopped.

"Damn, this is too impressive." Scarlet New Moon was envious.

They couldn’t tell what Lu Li was doing, but they could see that it wasn’t anything ordinary.

"This is the artifact that can turn you into a panther, right?" Darkness asked Lu Li as she turned towards him. A pretty girl always had more of an advantage than other average people. Even if her questions crossed some lines, nobody would blame her.

Lu Li didn’t deny it either; he nodded and explained, "It does allow me to transform, but it isn’t an artifact."

"What tier is it?" she continued to ask, as if to test Lu Li’s limits.

"Legendary," Lu Li replied after a pause.

"Wow! Doesn’t that make two legendary items?" Darkness gasped.

She wasn’t a girl of high profile, even though she was beautiful. If she wasn’t, Sorrowless wouldn’t be crazy about her either – she wasn’t on the list of beauties.

She was a sexy type of girl. The way she spoke, the way she moved – all of it was enchanting.

Most men would either not look at her, or keep their eyes locked on her at all times when they were with her.

Many people didn’t believe that Sorrowless would fall for a girl like this; they thought he wasn’t the kind of man who would fall into temptation.

However, this was the truth. Lu Li, who was reincarnated, was well aware of how crazy Sorrowless was for Darkness, and most of the higher end players knew about this too.

They also knew that Ruling Sword had an expert Paladin – the woman that Sorrowless loved.

Lu Li was too courageous to take in a woman like this. Was he not afraid of Glory Capital and the war that might follow? There were plenty of leaders who would raise a war for a woman.

Many were eagerly waiting for the war between Ruling Sword and Glory Capital.

However, there was only disappointment for them – a month had passed and both guilds remained peaceful. Darkness had even made it into the elite group of Ruling Sword and rumor had it that she was moving to Gangnam city to become a professional player.

"You’ll get these items someday too. Legendary ones," Lu Li said as if he was talking to another normal guild member.

"Hopefully." Darkness lost interest and stopped talking to Lu Li.

"Is he afraid of Sorrowless’ revenge? Is that why he won’t talk to me?" she wondered. She was slightly disappointed in Lu Li, considering he was such a legendary person.

After some thought, she conlcuded that this wasn’t possible – Lu Li didn’t seem like the type of person to be afraid of Sorrowless.

If he was, he wouldn’t have assassinated Sorrowless in front of the crowd. He didn’t say anything either when she joined Ruling Sword. Perhaps he didn’t know of the situation back then, but he probably would have known something by now. Under normal circumstances, he would have kicked her out to avoid a war between the guild and Sorrowless.

After all these issues had been sorted, everyone walked under the dead tree.

Although everything was deadly quiet, Lu Li and the others could still feel its giant aura.

This was a giant that covered the land; they felt like ants in a vast universe.

"Even the leaves of this tree would probably be a treasure," Wandering sighed.

"Go out first. I’ll see if I can gain some profit," Lu Li said as he passed all his gear and anything valuable in his bag to Azure Sea Breeze.

"Haha, I’m rich now. I’m quitting the guild after I leave this map," Azure Sea Breeze laughed uncontrollably.

Lu Li gave him a look of disgust.

"Get out!"

"****, you wait here. I’m going to go offline right now," Azure Sea Breeze said as he returned to the city with the others.

Was this the World Tree? Lu Li attempted to run around it on his mount, but found that he had been running for dozens of minutes.

Even Teldrassil was only so big.

This small world had to be a broken piece – otherwise, there was no way it would have such a giant World Tree.

Lu Li could imagine how prosperous it was while it was still alive; countless demon races bowed around it as the sought for its protection. Unfortunately, Sargeras had appeared in this world.

The strong ones were either killed or imprisoned, leaving only the ruins behind.

The world was broken and the World Tree slowly lost its energy. Of course, it could also be that Sargeras had destroyed the World Tree himself; the Titan Warrior probably didn’t think much of it.
