Without Instant Strike, Shifeng would have a very difficult time killing a Domain Realm expert. This was especially true in a chaotic battle where players couldn't use their Berserk Skills. With expert healers constantly healing them, if they couldn't kill their opponents quickly, their opponents could easily flee and recover their HP before continuing the battle. In the end, the battle would become an endless war of attrition.
This wasn't something Shifeng wanted to see. After all, their team was losing members with every passing second. If the battle dragged on, they'd definitely be annihilated.
Meanwhile, Instant Strike had a range limit and a long Cooldown. Against Domain Realm experts, Instant Strike could only kill one of them at a time.
Hence, Shifeng had chosen to target Undead, who was the most effective player against Nine Dragons Emperor's team. He had ordered his doppelganger to approach Undead so that he could use Instant Strike. However, Undead was very smart. He maintained a large distance from his doppelganger, using his maximum attack range to bombard the doppelganger.
However, when Undead thought that he had died, he relaxed slightly, giving his doppelganger time to close the distance between them.
Even so, it was still a close call. Undead had nearly dodged the attack. Fortunately, he had triggered Killing Ray's lightning effect, greatly increasing his initial speed.
As Undead collapsed to the ground, Bloody Paradise's members were stunned.
Undead was Bloody Paradise's pillar of support. Now that this pillar had fallen, Bloody Paradise's fighting spirit had vanished. Only fear remained.
Shifeng's stunning attack was particularly frightening.
Before they could react, Undead, who stood 15 yards away from them, had died for no apparent reason. Even though Undead was only an Elementalist and had relatively low Defense, he still had over 30,000 HP.
Undead's single attack had dealt over -30,000 damage. In other words, all cloth-armor classes would die in one hit from Shifeng. Even MTs with high HP and Defense would likely survive two or three hits from Undead …
"How is he so fast?" Nine Dragons Emperor's expression darkened as he looked at Shifeng, who wielded two longswords, one blue and one black.
The ordinary experts present might not have been able to understand what had happened, but he was able to see a little.
The instant Shi Feng had appeared before Undead, the Swordsman had used a Blink Skill to dodge the attack. Yet, despite his instant-cast Blink Skill, he hadn't been able to catch up to Shi Feng's attack.
That was why he had appeared here. Although he had flashed away, he was already dead.
This god-like sword speed was simply unheard of.
Nine Dragons Emperor's scalp tingled at the thought of Shifeng closing in on him.
"Is this Guild Leader's true strength?"
"He's really too strong. Even such a powerful Elementalist was killed before he could even dodge. Just how fast is he?"
Solitary Nine and the others were indescribably shocked when they saw the enemy encircle Shi Feng, yet none of the players present dared to step forward.
They had long since dreamed that they, too, could achieve such a feat one day. At that time, they wouldn't have wasted their time in God's Domain.
However, while the team members marveled at Shifeng's performance, Nine Dragons Emperor finally took action. Before anyone realized it, a dark-gray longbow with magic runes had appeared in his hand. As soon as he took out the longbow, the surrounding Mana seemed to ignite as it frantically gathered toward the longbow.
At the same time, Nine Dragons Emperor took an arrow engraved with crimson runes from his bag. The arrow was clearly part of the longbow.
"Pavilion Master?" Martial Dragon, who watched from a distance, could not help his surprise.
This longbow was called Star Shatterer, and it was a very special Magic Weapon. When used in conjunction with the arrows, the bow's Additional Skill, Twelve Firmament Breaks, could heavily injure a Grand Lord of the same level. One could easily imagine the power of twelve consecutive strikes. Moreover, as long as the Skill locked onto its target, it could not be dodged. It could even break the target's invulnerability effect. It was a killing move that could only be used once every ten hours.
Not even the Great Pavilion Master knew about Star Shatterer. Nine Dragons Emperor had originally planned to use it against Thunder Island's Guardian Boss. He had never thought that he would use it against a single Shifeng.
"Die!"
Nine Dragons Emperor drew Star Shatterer into a full moon, locking onto Shifeng, who was nearly 100 yards away. He then used Twelve Firmaments.
Originally, Rangers had the longest attack range of any class. However, at Tier 1, their maximum attack range was only 52 yards. With Twelve Firmaments, however, this range doubled, reaching 104 yards. Xiu!
Xiu! Xiu!
Xiu! Suddenly, the twelve dark-blue arrows transformed into streaks of light as they flew towards Shifeng. The arrows pierced through the air as if they were a thin sheet of paper, creating sonic booms. The resulting shockwaves even forced the nearby players to back away.
On the other side, Shifeng had intended to take advantage of this opportunity to kill a few more players. However, when he saw the longbow in Nine Dragons Emperor's hands from the corner of his eye, a chill ran down his spine.
Nine Dragons Emperor's Star Shatterer had been extremely famous in the past. It had ranked 28th on God's Domain's Magic Weapon Ranking List, and it had been known as a lethal weapon. When players used it at Tier 2, it could even heavily injure Mythic monsters of the same level.
Only, Shifeng had never thought that Nine Dragons Emperor would obtain Star Shatterer so soon.
Seeing Twelve Firmaments flying towards them, Shifeng instinctively activated Void Shield, forming a barrier around him that absorbed ten times the damage he received from his maximum HP. He then executed Sword's Orbit to block the attack.
Even if he dodged Twelve Firmaments, he had no choice but to receive the attack head-on.
Fortunately, Instant Strike's duration was still in effect. A dazzling river of stars formed around him as he collided with the twelve dark-blue arrows.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Twelve consecutive attacks landed on Shifeng, each one sending him flying over 60 yards away. Even his Void Shield shattered.
Shi Feng's HP rapidly decreased as if it were free.
90% … 70% … 50% …
By the time Shifeng landed on the ground, a massive crater had formed in the ground. Only then did his HP bar begin to decrease.
"He's not dead? How is this possible? " Nine Dragons Emperor stared at Shifeng in disbelief. He simply could not believe that Twelve Firmaments, which was capable of heavily injuring a Grand Lord, had failed to kill the Shifeng.
In fact, Shifeng still had over 20% of his HP remaining. However, it was obvious that Shifeng was in a sorry state. His hands were trembling, and his swords were humming. Due to the impact of the attacks, several cuts had appeared on his cheeks, which were still bleeding.
Sure enough, Twelve Firmaments is no exaggeration. It's no wonder why it's called Deadly Hundred Steps. Shifeng could not help but smile bitterly as he looked at his numb hands.
If not for his Strength surpassing that of a Great Lord of the same level, Void Shield, and reaction speed, as well as his 70,000 HP after reaching Level 60, which had a certain tier suppression effect on Tier 1 players' Skills, he would've long since died.
"Everyone, pay attention! Miracle Society's members will arrive soon! As long as we buy them some time, they'll be finished!" Nine Dragons Emperor hurriedly commanded. "Now, anyone who kills Feng Qianyu will receive a piece of Level 50 Dark-Gold Equipment! Anyone who kills Ye Feng will be rewarded with 1,000 Magic Crystals and a piece of Level 50 Dark-Gold Equipment! Whether or not you get it will depend on you! "
Originally, on Thunder Island, Nine Dragons Emperor had not thought that anyone could threaten his life. However, after seeing Shifeng kill Undead, he felt immense pressure. If he did not kill the Shifeng now, the consequences would be unimaginable if Shifeng waited until his Skills' Cooldowns were over. Hence, he needed to kill the Shifeng now and make sure that Shifeng lost a level and a piece of equipment.
If he lost the most suitable piece of equipment at this stage of the game, his combat power would plummet. Only then would he be able to rest easy.
Of course, it would be best if he could kill Shifeng a few more times.
"Level 50 Dark-Gold Equipment?"
"All hail the Pavilion Master!"
Upon hearing Nine Dragons Emperor's words, everyone's interest in killing the Shifeng was piqued. Many immediately set their sights on Shifeng.
Meanwhile, when Feng Qianyu and the others heard Nine Dragons Emperor's bounty, they were momentarily confused. Not only had Nine Dragons Emperor placed a bounty on Feng Qianyu, but he had also placed a bounty on Shifeng. Nobody could understand what grudge Nine Dragons Emperor had against the Shifeng that would require him to prioritize killing the Shifeng.
However, compared to this, the arrival of Miracle Society's members caused everyone to despair.
They've already joined forces with Miracle Society? Shifeng felt a lot of pressure when he saw Nine Dragons Emperor's team's morale skyrocket. He then shifted his gaze to Bloodhand Yama and the others. "It seems that I can't hold back any longer!"
Shi Feng had no choice but to use Divine Steps to dodge the attacks. Due to the effects of Twelve Heavens Break, his hands were still numb. Just holding his two swords was already the limit of what he could do.
A short moment later, he arrived at Feng Qianyu's location. He then stabbed the Abyssal Blade into the ground.
