As the dust settled, the three-meter-tall Evil Demon was revealed to be half-kneeling on the ground. Cracks had appeared on the ground around it, extending for over a dozen yards.
"He blocked it!"
"That's a Grand Lord ranked Evil Demon!"
Flame Blood's eyes nearly fell from their sockets when he saw the heavily injured Evil Demon.
Normally, only Tier 3 melee NPCs could contend with a Great Lord ranked Evil Demon, yet Shi Feng had actually sent a Grand Lord ranked Evil Demon flying …
Meanwhile, Beast Emperor's expression turned grim when he saw the Evil Demon lying on the ground, unable to get up.
The Shifeng's Strength had actually rivaled that of a Grand Lord ranked Evil Demon. No matter how he thought about it, this should be impossible.
Yet, it was happening right before his eyes.
"Heal the Evil Demon immediately! I'll have the Evil Demon protect you. Hei Yan's Berserk Skill won't last for long. Once it's over, this Hei Yan will die, "Beast Emperor said as he turned to look at Flame Blood. Beast Emperor turned to look at Flame Blood, his expression no longer as relaxed as before. "As long as we buy enough time, the reinforcements I've sent will arrive very quickly."
Although Beast Emperor doubted that the Shifeng could kill the Evil Demon, as a precaution, he still had Flame Blood heal the Evil Demon. This way, even if the Shifeng suppressed the Evil Demon, they wouldn't be able to do anything to it.
Moreover, to rescue Abandoned Wave, he had only sent the Grand Lord ranked Evil Demon as quickly as possible. As for the reinforcements, they would need some time.
By the time the reinforcements arrived, even the Shifeng wouldn't have a chance to escape.
Hearing Shi Feng's words, Flame Blood nodded. Immediately, he took action. First, he cast a Recovery Buff on the Evil Demon, restoring over 2,300 HP every 1.5 seconds. He then cast a Truth Shield on the Evil Demon, which could absorb over -11,000 damage in one go.
Although these Skills were negligible compared to the Evil Demon's total HP, the Truth Shield and Recovery Buff alleviated the Evil Demon's heavy injuries. At the very least, the Evil Demon could exhibit its peak combat power.
Flame Blood then began to chant an incantation. As one of the Sky Burial Society's top Clerics, Flame Blood double-cast right off the bat.
One was a Tier 1 Spell, Life Recovery, while the other was a Tier 0 Spell, Healing.
Not only was Flame Blood's casting speed very fast, but he was also very precise. His casting speed was not much inferior to Violet Cloud's. Only, there was a huge gap between his brain activity and Violet Cloud's.
However, Shifeng had no intention of wasting any time. Immediately, he used the Tier 2 Taboo Skill, Instant Strike, vanishing from everyone's sight. In the blink of an eye, he appeared before the Evil Demon.
Sword's Orbit!
Suddenly, a space as resplendent as the Milky Way formed around the Shifeng. Streaks of stars flew towards the Evil Demon. At this moment, the resplendent scene caused Flame Blood and the Beast Emperor to gasp in surprise.
Those stars seemed slow, but in fact, they were so fast that people couldn't react to them. It was just that the brain couldn't react in time, leaving behind afterimages.
The Evil Demon's reaction speed far surpassed that of expert players. In addition, its physique far surpassed that of ordinary players. Hence, it immediately brandished its claws to defend itself.
However, after Shifeng activated Twofold Berserk, his Strength had already surpassed the Evil Demon's. His speed was also roughly equal to the Evil Demon's. Now that his Sword Speed had increased by 500%, the Grand Lord ranked Evil Demon had no hope of blocking his attacks.
In the next moment, one star after another pierced the Evil Demon's body. Every time the star struck, the Evil Demon screamed in agony.
The Evil Demon's pained cries echoed throughout the grassland, lingering for a long time. Just listening to these cries made one shudder involuntarily, chills running down their backs.
At this moment, if other players saw this scene, they wouldn't be able to tell the difference between Shifeng and the Evil Demon. Which one was the player?
Meanwhile, with every star that pierced the Evil Demon's body, the Evil Demon's HP bar decreased at a rate visible to the naked eye.
-431574！
-435197！
-871054！
…
One after another, frightening damages appeared above the Evil Demon's head. For a moment, Flame Blood, who had been chanting an Incantation in the distance, forgot to continue. He simply stared at the Evil Demon in a daze.
"Is he a monster?"
Originally, Flame Blood had intended to heal the Evil Demon to compensate for the Shifeng's damage. However, compared to the Shifeng's destructive power, his efforts were futile.
At this moment, Flame Blood finally understood why the Shifeng hadn't prioritized killing him, the healer.
It wasn't that they hadn't killed the Evil Demon. Rather, there was no need to kill the Evil Demon. Naturally, there was no need to waste time. After all, Twofold Berserk's duration was very limited.
In the next moment, the Evil Demon's HP rapidly decreased. Every time the Evil Demon received a hit, it would lose 1% of its HP. If it received a critical hit, it would lose 2% of its HP.
90% … 80% … 70% …
After three short seconds of Instant Strike, the Evil Demon only had 64% of its HP remaining.
However, after Instant Strike's duration ended, the Shifeng's Attack Speed and damage began to plummet. Seeing this, Beast Emperor breathed a sigh of relief.
If the Shifeng had continued attacking at this rate, it wouldn't have taken more than 20 seconds to deplete the Evil Demon's 35,000,000 HP.
Now that the Shifeng's Attack Speed had decreased, it wasn't impossible for the Evil Demon to block its attacks. In fact, the Evil Demon could even use the gray fog to launch some unblockable attacks, forcing the Shifeng to dodge and waste some time.
At this rate, it was only a matter of time before the Shifeng's Berserk Skill ended and the Evil Demon killed them.
Sure enough, it's too difficult to defeat the Evil Demon alone. The Shifeng also found the situation troublesome. The Evil Demon's physique was even higher than that of Tier 3 players. While the Evil Demon's attacks might be difficult for players of the same tier to block, it was a piece of cake for the Evil Demon with its extraordinary reaction speed and physique. "It seems we have no choice but to attack together!"
Following which, the Shifeng took out two Summon Guard Scrolls from his bag.
Although he had the strength to suppress a Grand Lord for a short time, whether it was an Evil Demon or a monster, they had an advantage that players couldn't hope to match — HP. This was also why it was increasingly difficult for players to solo monsters of the same tier and higher as they progressed in the game.
After the Shifeng finished chanting an incantation, two golden magic arrays appeared beside the Shifeng.
Immediately, two figures appeared beside the Shifeng. They were none other than Kite and Anna. Although it had only been a short time since they had last met, both of them had leveled up significantly.
After the Shifeng had returned to White River City, he hadn't summoned the two back. Instead, he had sent them to the Dark Canyon to level up.
Time flowed much slower in the Dark Canyon than on the continent of God's Domain. It was five times faster than on the continent of God's Domain. Moreover, the Dark Canyon's training environment was far better than on the continent of God's Domain.
Kite, who had originally been Level 70, had now reached Level 74. As for Anna, she had already reached Level 75. She was definitely the highest-leveled Personal Guard at this stage of the game.
The instant the Swordsman Kite appeared, he brandished his greatsword. Countless wind blades formed around the Evil Demon, sealing off its movements. Anna then waved her staff and began to chant an incantation. Immediately, two Level 75 Lord ranked Rock Guardians appeared. A Great Lord ranked Golden Giant also stood guard between the Rock Guardians.
Under Anna's control, the Rock Guardians formed a magic array that reduced the Evil Demon's Basic Attributes by 15%. Moreover, the magic array wouldn't be destroyed until one of the Rock Guardians was killed.
Shifeng no longer held back as he used Phantom Kill and Nine Dragons Flash. His doppelganger's Attributes were even higher than Kite's, and each of the Abyssal Blade's phantoms dealt as much damage as the Lord ranked Rock Guardians.
With Shifeng tanking the Evil Demon while his doppelganger and Anna provided support, the Grand Lord ranked Evil Demon was a sitting duck. Although Kite and Anna's DPS couldn't compare to the Shifeng's, their combined DPS was even higher than the Shifeng's.
As time passed, Shifeng's remaining duration decreased. However, the Evil Demon's HP also decreased at a rate visible to the naked eye.
60% … 45% … 30% …
When the Evil Demon's HP fell to 19%, it finally lost its temper. Its entire body turned crimson, and its body shrank by a large margin. A dark-gray mist also rose from its body.
This was a desperate Skill that a Great Lord ranked Evil Demon couldn't use. Evil Energy Berserk increased its Strength and Speed by 30% and physique by 15%. However, this Skill also reduced its maximum HP by 30%. Meanwhile, Shifeng's Twofold Berserk only lasted for 24 seconds. Now, he only had two seconds remaining. The aura he radiated began to weaken.
At this moment, the Evil Demon realized that Shifeng couldn't hold on much longer. Grinning, it clenched its fists, and the gray mist around its body condensed into a sharp spear. Even with a slight movement of the spear's tip, a spatial tear tore through space. The Evil Demon then threw the spear at the Shifeng.
Suddenly, a series of explosions rang out as the spear tore through the air like paper.
Originally, the Evil Demon wanted the Golden Giant to block the spear. However, as if it didn't belong to this world, the gray spear pierced through the Golden Giant without causing any damage. Instead, it continued flying towards the Shifeng.
Just as the spear was about to land on the Shifeng, Shifeng instinctively used Divine Steps and vanished.
In the blink of an eye, he reappeared beside the Evil Demon and switched places with one of the Evil Demon's doppelgangers.
At this time, the two swords in Shifeng's hands released a dazzling glow as they slashed at the Evil Demon's body.
Flame Burst!
Divine Providence!
At this time, the doppelganger followed suit and used Flame Burst.
Although the Evil Demon's reaction speed was very fast, every time Shifeng swung his swords, he would switch places with one of his doppelgangers. The Evil Demon couldn't defend itself at all, and the Evil Demon's HP continued to fall.
By the time Shifeng swung his swords, the scorching flames had devoured the Evil Demon's body. The Evil Demon's body then collapsed to the ground, shattering like glass before disintegrating into particles of light.
Immediately afterward, Shifeng's experience bar skyrocketed, rising from Level 53 to Level 54. The EXP he gained from killing the Evil Demon was even more than what he had gained from soloing an Archaic Species.
Isn't the EXP a little too abundant? It can practically rival that of a Level 70 Mythic monster! Shifeng was astonished. If he could kill more Evil Demons, his leveling speed would definitely be amazing.
"Huh? Is this … the Evil God's Crystal?"
