Hearing Ghost Shadow's command, the Ghost Shadow Legion members breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, they no longer had the courage to face the Shifeng.
Killing a Grand Lord ranked Evil Demon would be child's play. They had gone to great lengths to reach their current levels. If they were killed, they would have a difficult time regaining their levels.
Following Ghost Shadow's command, the Ghost Shadow Legion members and Evil Demons retreated immediately, no longer daring to linger in this land of death.
"You want to leave? Not so fast! " Shifeng slashed the Abyssal Blade at the sky as he watched the fleeing Evil Demons and Ghost Shadow Legion members. He then executed Skywheel Sword.
Suddenly, one golden sacred sword after another descended from the sky, instantly killing the Ghost Shadow Legion's Assassins. Not only did these sacred swords trap three Great Lord ranked Evil Demons, but they also trapped over a dozen Lord ranked Evil Demons that tried to escape.
Meanwhile, Anna and Kite's Personal Guards and Shifeng's doppelganger charged at the Great Lord ranked Evil Demons.
Evil Demons were not easy to spawn, especially after reaching the Great Lord rank. Every Evil Demon was a treasure to Evil God players. Hence, Shifeng prioritized killing the powerful Evil Demons.
As for Shifeng himself, he dashed after the fleeing players.
Inside the Forbidden Domain, all enemies' Movement Speed would be suppressed. Meanwhile, Shifeng's Attributes were frighteningly high. He could easily catch up to the fleeing players. Since the Assassins could not use Skills or tools, he could easily kill them with a single swing of his sword.
Moreover, Shifeng had already activated Omniscient Eyes. He could see everything within a 100-yard radius like the back of his hand. He was well-suited for hunting down players in the forest.
In the next moment, Shifeng transformed into a black blur. Wherever he passed, he left behind a trail of white light and pained screams. The fleeing players paled at the sight, their bodies trembling. It was as if they weren't facing players at all, but a Grim Reaper harvesting lives and listening to their screams of pain.
This scene sent chills down the spines of the distant guard players.
Shi Feng had single-handedly faced an army of Evil Demons and several hundred Level 40-plus Assassins. Yet, after a short moment of battle, his opponents were already fleeing for their lives.
"Too strong! Who is he? "
"So, this is a true expert?"
…
Looking at the hundreds of Ghost Shadow Legion members being chased, everyone was deeply shocked.
It was as if he had seen a new world.
Every player in the Ghost Shadow Legion was a Level 40 or above Assassin. They were also fully geared in excellent weapons and equipment, which made the other players envious. In the eyes of ordinary players, these players were absolute experts. Yet, against a single player, these several hundred experts only wanted to flee …
"Hei Yan, don't go too far! Do you really think we're afraid of you? "Xiang Shifeng bellowed angrily when he saw his subordinates being slaughtered.
The people he had brought with him this time were the elites of the Ghost Shadow Legion. He had spent a lot of resources to nurture each of them. Now that they were being killed one by one, his heart was bleeding. He wanted nothing more than to rush over and kill the Shifeng.
However, he knew that he was no match for the Shifeng right now. Hence, he could only order the retreating Lord ranked Evil Demons to surround and attack the Shifeng to buy time for the others.
"Too far?" Shifeng could not help but laugh. "You came all the way to Stone Forest Town to rob us. Do you really think you can leave this place alive?"
Shifeng's words echoed throughout the forest, his chilling killing intent causing the fleeing Ghost Shadow Legion members to shudder involuntarily.
Shifeng did not hold back as he switched to the Aura of Wind and activated Gale Domain. Not only did the Aura of Wind increase his Movement Speed, but it also reduced the Movement Speed of all enemies within a 100-yard radius by 50%, making escape even more difficult.
In the blink of an eye, several streaks of white light appeared in the forest. The Lord ranked Evil Demons charging at them could not stop them at all.
Although Shifeng and Ghost Shadow were relatively far away, their voices were quite loud. Even the players guarding the caravan heard them, and their jaws dropped.
Hei Yan's name was known throughout the Starmoon Kingdom.
However, they had never imagined that he would be so strong!
As far as they knew, Hei Yan was only slightly stronger than the strongest experts of first-rate Guilds. Now, however, it would seem that the two were on completely different levels …
"What?! That person is actually the Ling YI Society's Guild Leader, Hei Yan?! "
"There shouldn't be any mistake. That person even admitted it."
"No wonder that person is so powerful! So, he's the Sword King, Hei Yan! He hunted down hundreds of experts all by himself! If I could reach even half of his standard, I wouldn't have lived my life in vain! "
"After this, I'll definitely join the Ling YI Society!"
"Right, did any of you record this battle? Can you make a copy for me? I'm willing to pay 10 Silver! "
"I've recorded a few. You don't have to pay for it. I'll upload it to the official forums in a moment. You can watch it when the time comes."
"What a pity that I didn't get to watch Hei Yan's battle with the Grand Lord ranked Evil Demons. Had I known, I would've snuck over."
…
For a moment, the players guarding the caravan were incomparably excited. They never thought that they would be able to witness one of the Starmoon Kingdom's legendary characters in person. Moreover, they would be able to witness a legend up close.
"Commander, why don't we station our adventurer team in Stone Forest Town?" Graceful Moon asked Remnant Cloud, her commander.
"Why did you change your mind so quickly?" Remnant Cloud teased when he saw the glint in Graceful Moon's eyes.
In reality, even if Graceful Moon hadn't suggested it, he had considered doing so. After all, the previous battle had opened his eyes to a whole new world. As an expert, he couldn't help but want to explore it.
At this moment, he also understood why the Black Dragon Empire's top 100 experts held Stone Forest Town's Battle Arena in such high regard.
"Of course," Graceful Moon said matter-of-factly. Instead, she said righteously, "If Hei Yan is so strong, the other experts of the Ling YI Society shouldn't be any weaker. If we station ourselves in Stone Forest Town, we'll have to sign a contract with the Ling YI Society. At that time, we might have an opportunity to get to know these experts and spar with them."
"If we decide to station ourselves in Stone Forest Town, we'll have to make some preparations. I've heard that Stone Forest Town's adventurer houses aren't cheap," Remnant Cloud said, nodding. He could not help but think of a way to earn money. "Once we complete this quest, we can return to the Black Dragon Empire to make preparations."
If it were only a private Residence in Stone Forest Town, their adventurer team could still afford it. However, it was a different story for an adventurer house. They would most likely have to spend several times more money to build one. Moreover, after today's battle, the auction price for the house might increase significantly.
Fortunately, their adventurer team had found out about this long ago. If they had waited until news of this matter reached the Black Dragon Empire, they would've had a much more difficult time preparing.
Meanwhile, news of this matter quickly spread to the Starmoon Kingdom's official forums. When the various powers and players in the Starmoon Kingdom saw a video of the battle, they were shocked.
