On the battlefield, the Shifeng used the Ring of Gospel's two Skills at the cost of Magic Crystals, increasing and decreasing the Attributes of both sides. Immediately, the Asura Adventurers had a much easier time dealing with the approaching Hekati melee army. The Asura Adventurers' ranged attacks easily repelled the MTs, who raised their shields and advanced steadily.
After just one wave of attacks, Hekati's MTs had broken their formation. The second wave of attacks instantly killed 30 MTs, preventing Hekati's melee army from approaching the Asura Adventurers.
"Hahaha! Commander, you're amazing! Now, they can't even engage in melee combat!"
The Asura Adventurers, who had despaired, regained their hope of escaping the encirclement.
At the very least, they could dodge and block ranged attacks. However, they would be in trouble if they allowed the Shifeng's ranged attacks to get into melee range. If they got entangled in a melee, they'd basically die.
Due to World Projection and the Ring of Brilliance's effects, Asura's advance had increased significantly. Now, aside from the attacks of Tier 2 players, Asura's members could easily block the attacks of Tier 1 players, preventing their formation from breaking apart.
Meanwhile, the Shifeng that opened up a path for the Asura Adventurers were like ghosts.
By the time the Asura Adventurers had covered three-quarters of the distance, more than 400 players had died to the Shifeng's swords. Most of them had died to the Shifeng's AOE Skills.
In addition, there was also a Tier 3 Demon that constantly disrupted Hekati's formation. As a result, Hekati's members couldn't stop the Shifeng's advance at all. They could only watch as the Shifeng continued to advance.
"Blade, lead the Vultures! Don't let them get away!" Cold Brew ordered, gritting his teeth as he watched the Shifeng advance.
The key to this battle was the existence of the Shifeng. If it weren't for the Shifeng's ability to tear a hole in their encirclement, the Asura Adventurers wouldn't have been able to move an inch.
Furthermore, there were too many Hekati members who had died at the hands of the Shifeng. Wherever they went, the corpses of the Hekati members would be piled up. If they did not get rid of the Shifeng leader, their losses would be too great.
"Alright!" The swordsman who was hiding not too far away from the Asura Adventurers replied in the team chat. Immediately after, he led the six Assassins beside him and quickly sneaked into Xiang Shifeng.
The Vulture Party was a party Hekati had specifically used to ambush important members of various large Guilds. They had not failed even against the upper echelons of super-first-rate Guilds.
When the Vultures were less than 30 yards away from the Shifeng, they all took out Magic Scrolls from their bags. When they were 25 yards away, they all used Shadow Steps, instantly appearing beside the Shifeng.
"Seal!" The six Vultures moved very quickly as they simultaneously unfurled the Magic Scrolls in their hands.
However, the Shifeng reacted quickly. Realizing what the six Vultures were trying to do, he immediately brandished his two swords.
Sword's Orbit!
One star after another bombarded the six Vultures.
However, the six Vultures did not attempt to defend themselves. Instead, they used Wind Steps to block the Shifeng's sword techniques for a short period of invulnerability.
Suddenly, a magic array formed beneath the Shifeng's feet. A frightening gravitational force then applied to the Shifeng. Immediately after, chains bound the Shifeng, reducing the Shifeng's Basic Attributes, Movement Speed, and Attack Speed by 60%. Moreover, they were completely isolated from the outside world. Neither Attack Spells nor Healing Spells could affect the magic array.
"Die!" Suddenly, the Blade Warrior appeared behind the Shifeng, activating his Berserk Skill and swinging his two daggers at the Shifeng.
The surrounding Vultures also activated their Berserk Skills. At the same time, they used Absolute Strike, the strongest Tier 1 Skill, on the Shifeng.
Due to the significant reduction in the Shifeng's Attributes and Movement Speed, as well as the short distance between them, the Shifeng had no time to defend himself. As a result, all of the attacks landed simultaneously on the Shifeng.
"Commander!" Yan Ya cried out anxiously when she saw the Shifeng inside the magic array.
Even if the Shifeng activated Heavenly Dragon's Power, he most likely wouldn't survive the full-powered attacks of a Tier 2 Assassin and six Tier 1 Assassins.
"He's finally dead!" Cold Brew could not help but breathe out a sigh of relief when he saw the Shifeng get hit.
With the Shifeng dead, the other members of the Asura Adventurers were meat on the chopping block. Moreover, by killing the commander of the Asura Adventurers, Shifeng, they had more or less made up for the sacrifices of the Hekati members.
Although Cold Brew breathed a sigh of relief, the seven Assassins inside the magic array watched the Shifeng with grim expressions.
This was because their weapons had failed to hit the Swordsman at all. Instead, they had been blocked by a faint barrier. As a result, the barrier had absorbed all of their attacks.
"What a powerful assassination technique. I almost thought I was dead." Shifeng glanced at the Blade Warrior's and the others' grim expressions. He then glanced at the Void Shield he had activated. At this moment, over 30% of the Shield's HP had been depleted. If not for the Void Shield, he would've died instantly.
"It's just a shield. I don't believe it can last forever!"
Blade Warrior raised an eyebrow. Changing the trajectory of his dagger, he attacked Shifeng once more. Meanwhile, the other six Assassins attacked simultaneously. However, the seven Assassins remained unfazed. Instead, they launched a frenzied barrage of attacks at the shield.
Inside the magic array, their Basic Attributes were superior to the Shifeng's. As for their speed, they were far superior to the Shifeng's. Meanwhile, the amount of damage a shield could absorb was very limited. As long as they could break the shield, the Shifeng would still die.
Flashes of light appeared as countless sword images and Jian Ying rained down on the shield.
Dang! Dang!
Dang! Shifeng executed Sword's Orbit to block the seven Assassins' attacks. Every time he blocked an attack, he felt his arm tremble. In terms of Strength, he was no match for the seven Assassins. Moreover, with his Attack Speed, he couldn't block all seven Assassins' attacks in time. As a result, the Void Shield's energy continued to dwindle.
Sixty percent … Fifty percent … Thirty percent …
Just as the Void Shield was about to shatter, the Asura Adventurers began to suffer more casualties. Sighing, Shifeng activated Blade Liberation, his aura skyrocketing.
The instant Blade Warrior and the other Assassins came into contact with Shifeng's Sacred Sword, they felt their arms go numb. Instantly, the seven Assassins were repelled, their bodies slamming into the magic barrier, creating ripples on the barrier.
"How did his Strength increase again?" Blade Warrior's expression darkened as he looked at Shifeng, who stood proudly before him. He couldn't understand why Shifeng's Attributes had increased by a large margin.
However, Shifeng didn't give Blade Warrior and the others much time to think. Instead, he took the initiative to meet them head-on.
Jian Ying, as fast as lightning, enveloped Blade and the others.
Dang! Dang!
Dang! Shifeng's swords were so fast that Tier 2 players couldn't keep up with them with their naked eyes. Although Blade Warrior and the other Assassins were Assassins and ranked first among all classes in terms of speed, they struggled to keep up with Shifeng's attacks. They relied on their beast-like instincts to block Shifeng's swords.
At this moment, the seven Assassins felt as if they were pushing their Strength to the limit.
However, every time their daggers and short swords came into contact with a sharp sword, a frightening force traveled through their arms, forcing them to stumble backward. When they could no longer block the incoming swords, Blade Warrior and the other Assassins activated their Lifesaving Skill, Vanish. While tanking the Shifeng's attacks, they used Life-Risking Strike.
Instantly, Shifeng's shield shattered, and Shifeng lost one HP.
Seeing hope, Blade Warrior and the other Assassins tried to use Life-Risking Strike again. However, just as their attacks were about to land on Shifeng, Shifeng suddenly split into two.
Phantom Kill!
Blade Warrior and the other Assassins were stunned. However, they took advantage of the temporary invulnerability to attack the two Shifeng.
With their attacks scattered, and with the Shifeng's high HP and Defense, the seven Assassins' attacks couldn't kill the two Shifeng.
When the temporary invulnerability ended, the two Shi Fengs simultaneously used Shadow Blade. Twenty sword lights danced in the air, instantly killing five of the seven Swordsmen. Following which, the two Shi Fengs executed Purgatory Pentaslash, each attack stronger than the last. The two Shi Fengs then executed Purgatory Pentaslash, each attack stronger than the last. The remaining two Swordsmen trembled, their movements becoming increasingly sluggish.
In the next moment, a streak of blue light streaked across the battlefield.
This time, the two Assassins were powerless to defend themselves. The streak of blue light pierced through their leather armor and slammed into the magic barrier. Blade Warrior and the other Assassins' eyes widened in shock. They couldn't believe that the Vulture Party, which had shaken the various large Guilds, had been killed by the commander of an adventurer team.
Blade Warrior wanted to say something, but his HP had already reached zero. His eyes glazed over as he transformed into a streak of white light and disappeared, leaving behind only his equipment. Following which, the magic barrier shattered and disappeared.
