The teachers and students of Skyvault Corridor were all staring in utter shock.

Never in their dreams could they have imagined such an unbelievable scene!

Countless forbidden spells poured down like a torrential storm, forcibly smashing that demonbane army of ten thousand transcendent supreme-grade warriors until they collapsed into total disarray.

Those were ten thousand transcendent supreme-grade warriors!

And yet, before Faustus, they were as fragile as paper.

Even more terrifying was the fact that Faustus’s skills seemed endless.

A divine instructor who specialized in forbidden spells was trembling all over at this moment, his face filled with disbelief.

"This... how is this possible?!"

"This can’t be real! How can forbidden spells possibly be used like this?!"

"Epic-grade forbidden spells... Those are epic-grade forbidden spells!"

"No, that’s not right either—even epic-grade forbidden spells shouldn’t be able to last this long!"

"The more terrifying the power of a skill, the greater the cost should be!"

He was about to be driven mad by Daniel.

This human had simply shattered every rule and limitation governing forbidden spells.

He used forbidden spells as though they had no MP cost at all.

Even more absurdly, his skills were endless, continuous, and unbroken!

If any one of these traits appeared alone on a single powerhouse, it might still be explainable.

But for all of these monstrous conditions to gather on one person at the same time...

That was simply unreasonable!

Was this still a human?

Forget the instructors being stunned senseless. Even the students’ entire worldview had been shattered all over the ground.

"This is a forbidden spell? Then what exactly are the forbidden spells I learned?"

"The sustained combat power of us Godkin has always dominated the starry sky, but compared to Faustus... it’s like comparing a pond to the sea!"

"The key is that he hasn’t even used a weapon. What class is he, exactly? Is he a mage?"

"If he’s a mage, then he doesn’t even need to chant..."

"This is simply too absurd."

...

The Temple of the God of Light.

Brand’s expression was so dark that it seemed as though water might drip from his face.

This loss was enormous!

Those were ten thousand transcendent supreme-grade Godkin warriors!

The mid-level powerhouses of the Godkin were not particularly numerous to begin with, and now, ten thousand transcendent warriors had vanished in one blow!

Pain!

Brand felt as though every inch of his body was aching. Regret surged over him, nearly burying him alive.

His eyes reddened as he stared at Daniel in the mirror, wishing he could devour that human alive.

Now, he finally understood completely.

This human was not some insignificant little character who could be toyed with at will.

He was someone worth Brand personally taking action against!

He could no longer send Godkin powerhouses to their deaths. Against that kind of continuous forbidden-spell bombardment, no matter how many he sent, they would only be delivering themselves as free meals.

Thinking of this, Brand’s gaze turned cold.

His figure instantly disappeared from the Temple of the God of Light.

The Godkin armies were countless, but the Demonbane Knight Order was no third-rate force.

In terms of elite strength, the Demonbane Knight Order could even rank within the top five!

With this battle ending in defeat, Brand would inevitably have to bear responsibility.

If he could kill Faustus as atonement, it would at least reduce some of the punishment. But if he failed to kill him...

Then his troubles would become enormous.

After all, the difficulty of reproduction was right there for everyone to see. The Godkin placed great importance on the descendants of their race!

...

On the battlefield.

Under Daniel’s endless forbidden-spell bombardment, not a single survivor remained.

System notifications surged in like a flood. As Daniel listened to the prompts ringing beside his ears, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He had made an absolute killing this time!

[Ding! You sold [Divine Blood] ×10,000, [Divine Soul] ×10,000, [Divine Bone] ×10,000, and [Primal Spirit] ×10,000 to Doom Guild for 1 copper coin, triggering Millionfold Boost!]

...

[Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained 10,000 gold coins! You have obtained [Divine Blood] ×10,000,000,000!]

[Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained 100 gold coins! You have obtained [Divine Soul] ×10,000,000,000!]

[Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained 100 gold coins! You have obtained [Divine Bone] ×10,000,000,000!]

[Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained 100 gold coins! You have obtained [Primal Spirit] ×10,000,000,000 points!]

[...] 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

The pleasant sound of Millionfold Boost kept exploding beside Daniel’s ears.

A wave of secret satisfaction surged through his heart.

This harvest was insane.

Just the materials required for reincarnation at the Sacred Spring were already enough for who knew how many players to complete their reincarnation.

And that was not even counting all those Primal Spirits.

"Ten thousand Godkin warriors means ten billion points of Primal Spirit."

Ten billion Primal Spirits.

That was just enough to deduce a Forbidden Art!

Thinking of this, Daniel immediately pulled out that scroll of [Essence of Elemental Laws] from his backpack.

[Essence of Elemental Laws — Divine-grade]

Level: ???

Grade: Divine-grade

Effect: Can deduce various elemental laws and create brand-new class skills, even forbidden spells and Forbidden Arts!

Deduction Requirements:

1,000,000 Primal Spirit can deduce one forbidden spell!

10,000,000,000 Primal Spirit can deduce one Forbidden Art!

...

Daniel did not think much about it and directly poured all ten billion Primal Spirits into it.

[Ding! Do you wish to consume 10,000,000,000 points of [Primal Spirit] to deduce a Forbidden Art?]

"Yes."

[Prompt: Deduction complete! You have obtained the Forbidden Art — [Fateweaver]!]

[Prompt: The deduction function will restart in 30 days.]

Daniel raised an eyebrow after hearing the system notification, especially when he heard the final line.

There was actually a cooldown?

It could only be used once every thirty days.

Still, after thinking about it, this was already pretty good.

The deduction process had not taken much time either.

If it were like traditional alchemy, where a single attempt could take months or even years, that would have been truly fatal.

This efficiency was already excellent.

...

Fateweaver?

Daniel looked at this newly deduced Forbidden Art and frowned slightly.

He opened the skill book glowing with a deep violet light.

[Fateweaver — Forbidden] — Archer

Level: ???

Grade: ???

Effects:

After studying it, you can obtain a special ability — [Causal Power].

After studying it, your defense against [causal attacks] will increase.

[Causal Power]: Allows you to observe the Threads of Fate between all kinds of living beings and objects. You cannot directly interfere with the Threads of Fate, but you can make limited changes to the [Threads of Fate] before your eyes.

Description: A primary causal law. Deeper mysteries of the law remain to be unlocked...

After reading the introduction, Daniel studied it without the slightest hesitation.

[Ding! You have studied the Forbidden Art — [Fateweaver]!]

[Prompt: This Forbidden Art is currently only low-grade and cannot be upgraded through conventional means. To unlock deeper mysteries of the law, the practitioner’s own mastery over fate must reach a certain level.]

Daniel instantly understood.

Forbidden laws were also divided into different tiers, and the one in his hands was only low-grade.

If he wanted to study it more deeply, he would have to rely on accumulated practice and comprehension over time.

With his current strength, there was ultimately no shortcut that could let him ascend to the heavens in a single step.

He also knew very well that he had only managed to take advantage of the game system and found a clever loophole.

A forbidden law of this level was like a legendary heavenly scripture. Unless one was favored by Lady Luck herself, one would not even have the chance to touch it.

And he had merely wiped out a Godkin army, spent some Primal Spirits, and obtained this outrageously high-level skill book.

Honestly...

It had already exceeded all reasonable limits!

"Causality? Threads of Fate?"

A faint light glimmered in Daniel’s eyes.
