As Shifeng drank the Bloodline Power, the rooftop's Mana began to gather around Xiang Shifeng's body.
Two threefold magic arrays formed beneath Shifeng's feet and above his head, forming a magic barrier that enveloped the Shifeng. The ambient Mana then flowed into the threefold magic arrays above Shifeng's head. At the same time, golden divine runes began to appear all over Shifeng's body.
As the golden divine runes on Shifeng's body became more complete, the aura he radiated grew stronger.
When the golden divine runes spread to Shifeng's body, a golden beam of light erupted from Shifeng's body. The aura he radiated was even stronger than that of the Shrine Knights.
However, after a few seconds, the golden beam of light disappeared, and the rooftop returned to normal.
After calming down, Shifeng opened his eyes.
Shifeng's originally pitch-black eyes now contained a hint of dark-silver. Previously, he had kept his aura completely restrained, but now, he radiated a frightening aura.
If an ordinary player stood here, they'd most likely suspect that Shifeng was an NPC, not a player. Not only did Shi Feng's aura feel intimidating, but his gaze also gave off an indescribably cold feeling. His gaze was mechanical and rational, as if no matter what happened, he would remain calm and unaffected.
So, this is the power of the Dark Iron Bloodline?
Shifeng could not help but feel an indescribable sense of shock as he sensed the changes in his body.
Although he was very excited in his heart, before this excitement reached its peak, a cold feeling came over him, and he couldn't help but calm down.
Moreover, his perception of his surroundings was clearly different from before.
In the past, he'd had to divide a large portion of his attention to accurately grasp his surroundings' movements. Now, however, even if he didn't concentrate, he could still grasp the movements around him …
This improvement had far exceeded Shifeng's expectations.
In God's Domain, any expert capable of reaching the Void Realm was one of the top apex experts in the various superpowers. Experts who had only recently reached the Void Realm had to focus on grasping their surroundings. Even experts who had been in the Void Realm for a long time had to invest a considerable amount of effort.
Now, however, Shi Feng didn't even need to devote half of his attention to his surroundings. This improvement was truly frightening.
Whether it was in the real world or in God's Domain, a person's concentration was limited. If they could do this, they couldn't do that. Experts, on the other hand, were capable of multitasking.
Of course, such multitasking was limited to simple tasks. When faced with complex tasks, it was still very difficult to multitask, not to mention grasping the movements around him. If he only needed to divide half of his attention, he could use the other half to perform other tasks, greatly increasing his combat power. by the standards of Bloodline....
Moreover, aside from the improvement to his concentration, Shi Feng's Basic Attributes had also increased slightly after drinking the Bloodline. His Strength had increased by 10%, Agility by 7%, Endurance by 5%, Concentration by 5%, and Intelligence by 5%. Although the improvement was minimal, it would continue to increase as he leveled up and reached higher tiers. His Basic Attributes would also grow.
Following which, Shifeng brandished his greatsword several times.
Suddenly, the sword light flashed, drawing a beautiful arc in the air. It was soundless.
Sure enough! Not only does the Bloodline not increase a player's Basic Attributes, but it also increases their reaction speed slightly. Previously, the Bloodline's reaction speed was only 0.1 seconds. Now, it should be around 0.08 seconds. Bloodlines really are overbearing. It's no wonder why the various superpowers searched so desperately for them in the past. Shifeng could not help his rueful sigh as he looked at the still-lingering Jian Ying in the sky.
Although the Bloodline's reaction speed had only increased by 0.02 seconds, it was a heaven-defying improvement to expert players. Only extremely talented experts could surpass the 0.1-second limit.
In the past, Shi Feng could only react ten times per second. Now, however, he could react twelve times per second. With these two extra reactions, even if his opponent saw him, they wouldn't be able to react. They would only be able to watch helplessly.
If he had obtained a Basic Bloodline in the past, he could've easily reached Tier 4, even if his innate development wasn't enough. Unfortunately, Bloodlines were only as valuable as Fragmented Legendary items in God's Domain. In fact, they were even rarer.
Following which, after Shifeng adapted to the situation for another ten minutes or so, he approached the Shrine Knight, one step at a time.
He was very interested in clashing with the Shrine Knight.
As soon as Shifeng set foot on the rooftop's ring, the Shrine Knight snapped out of his daze and charged at Xiang Shifeng with his two swords raised.
"Just in time! Let me see just how powerful the Dark Iron Bloodline is!" Shifeng could not help but smile when he saw the Shrine Knight charging at him.
This time, Shifeng did not rush to execute Sword's Orbit. Instead, he simply brandished his swords to block the Shrine Knight's ferocious attacks.
Suddenly, the Shrine Knight's swords flashed, sparks flew, and the sound of metal clashing rang out.
Although Shifeng couldn't execute every one of his attacks instinctively against the Shrine Knight's ferocious attacks, he relied on his extremely fast reaction speed to make up for his inability to block the Shrine Knight's attacks.
After fighting for three minutes, Shifeng gradually grew accustomed to the Shrine Knight's suppression. Finally, he fought on equal footing with the Shrine Knight. The more Shifeng fought, the more excited he became.
Moreover, unlike before, he still had plenty of Strength to spare. He could even execute Void Steps to dodge the Shrine Knight's attacks. Seeing this, the Shrine Knight revealed a surprised expression.
It seems this is my current limit. Although I still have plenty of Strength left, I still haven't grasped enough combat techniques to exhibit the Dark Iron Bloodline's full power. I'll have to find an opportunity to learn some new combat techniques in the future. As Shifeng fought the Shrine Knight, he gained a deeper understanding of his shortcomings.
After reflecting on his mistakes, Shifeng swung Killing Ray and executed Sword's Orbit.
Shifeng's attacks followed his instincts. Every time he executed Sword's Orbit, he executed Sword's Orbit with the maximum speed he could exhibit. His attacks easily suppressed the Shrine Knight's Chop.
Suddenly, a gash appeared on the Shrine Knight's shoulder.
After the first gash appeared, a second gash appeared … a third … a fourth …
As the number of gashes increased, the Shrine Knight's HP decreased. Every gash took over 3,000 HP from the Shrine Knight, and the Shrine Knight's 1,000,000 HP decreased at a rate visible to the naked eye.
In less than ten minutes, the Shrine Knight collapsed before Shifeng, disintegrating into a pile of rubble. Now, only Shifeng remained on the rooftop.
After defeating the Shrine Knight, Shifeng obtained a piece of Shenjing.
However, this piece of Shenjing was different from the other Shenjing. Only after Shifeng retrieved the piece of Shenjing from the crystal wall did he realize that it radiated an incredibly powerful Divine Might.
"Advanced Shenjing?" Shifeng inspected the Shenjing, ecstatic. He immediately understood why his challenge had been so difficult.
Advanced Shenjing contained much denser Divine Power than ordinary Shenjing. One Advanced Shenjing could be used as two Shenjing. Naturally, Advanced Shenjing was no less valuable than ordinary Epic Equipment.
With this, he only needed to collect one more Ordinary Shenjing to restore the Disintegration Armor.
System: Congratulations! You have completed the Shrine's trial. You now have two choices. The first is to leave the Shrine immediately. The second is to continue the challenge. However, you will have to spend 1,000 minutes.
Seeing this, Shifeng chose the second option without hesitation. Once again, he chose Shenjing.
However, this time, the difficulty of the challenge was significantly lower. His opponent was only a Flowing Water Realm Shrine Knight. Hence, he easily secured victory.
