When the Dark Adventurer Team's members heard the Assassin's words, they couldn't help but look around.
Just as the Assassin had said, their adventurer team wasn't alone. Nearly 30 adventurer teams and several Dark Guilds had also begun to move closer.
It was obvious that these dark adventurer teams and Dark Guilds couldn't wait any longer.
In God's Domain, dark forces were suppressed everywhere. Dark forces had a much harder time surviving than ordinary players during the early stages of the game. After all, dark forces hadn't yet risen to the point where they could contend with the various kingdoms and empires.
Meanwhile, very few dark adventurer teams or Dark Guilds had reached the level of superpowers. Even if they wanted to join, they had to meet strict requirements. Dark Soul, on the other hand, had practically no independent and strong Dark Alliance.
If they could join Dark Soul, it would greatly benefit their development in the future. They wouldn't even have to worry about being hunted down by large Guilds for killing members of certain large Guilds. Moreover, they could grind in the good locations occupied by Dark Soul. They wouldn't have to grind in barren areas anymore.
"Commander?" The Assassin turned to the silent, Tier 2 Ranger. "If we don't take action now, the other adventurer teams will likely beat us to it."
"Fine. In for a penny, in for a pound. Even if we fail, we'll only lose a level. If we succeed, we'll become Dark Soul's members and join the dark forces' apex," the sturdy man with a longbow said, nodding. A hint of killing intent flashed in his eyes as he looked at the Shifeng.
Dark forces had a much harder time surviving than ordinary players. Finding a powerful backer was far more difficult than joining the various superpowers. Now that he had found one, he couldn't let it go.
Hearing their commander's words, the adventurer team's 20-plus members revealed fierce expressions. They then followed their commander and approached the Shifeng.
At this moment, the adventurer team wasn't alone. Several thousand Dark Players had also prepared for battle. Some stealthed Assassins had even arrived within 200 yards of the Shifeng.
"Hei Yan is very powerful. We can't let him get away! Surround him and use War Bind on him! Once the battle begins, use Silencing on him! We must kill him in one hit!" A Level 54, Tier 2 Assassin in dark-gray leather armor whispered to the 30-plus Assassins beside him through the team chat. "As long as we kill Hei Yan, everyone in Poison Blade will join Dark Soul. We'll be able to live a life of luxury in the Dark Night Empire. We won't even have to fear super-first-rate Guilds!"
The 30-plus Level 53 to Level 54 Assassins' eyes glowed when they heard their commander's words.
In the Dark Night Empire, Poison Blade was only a relatively ordinary Dark Guild. Normally, Poison Blade could contend with second- or third-rate Guilds. However, against first-rate Guilds, Poison Blade had no choice but to flee.
In their opinion, super-first-rate Guilds were the heavens of the Dark Night Empire.
They didn't even want a fight with Dark Soul in the Empire's's Guild.
When they thought about how, after joining Dark Soul, they wouldn't have to fear Crimson Emperor and Unyielding Soul, two super-first-rate Guilds in the Dark Night Empire, they couldn't help but feel ecstatic.
This was the joy and freedom they had always sought.
With such a promising future in front of them, their footsteps became even softer as they approached Shi Feng. Their auras also began to weaken. At this moment, they were more focused than ever, and Shi Feng was the only person in their eyes.
150 yards …
100 yards …
80 yards …
As they got closer to the Shifeng, everyone grew increasingly nervous.
When the distance between the two sides was close to 50 yards, a deep voice suddenly entered everyone's ears, deeply ingrained in their minds.
"Scram!"
Before anyone could react, the Shifeng turned abruptly, unsheathing Killing Ray, and swinging it at the air.
Suddenly, countless streaks of blue light formed around Shi Feng. These streaks of light then transformed into countless blades that formed a blue river. Like a ferocious beast, these streaks of light scorched the ground in their wake. The area covered by these streaks of light extended up to 80 yards away from Shi Feng.
Before the stealthed Assassins within range could react, the countless streaks of light devoured them, revealing their true forms. They then transformed into streaks of white light and disappeared from the battlefield.
As the blue river gradually dissipated, the various dark adventurer teams and Dark Guilds' members gasped involuntarily.
With just one attack, Shi Feng had killed over 70 of the Assassins that had set up the ambush.
Dazzling equipment littered the scorched ground. Due to Shifeng's sudden attack, the Assassins' footwork and breathing were disrupted, revealing themselves one after another.
"So, this is the Sword King's strength, Hei Yan?" A Tier 2 Assassin in dark-gray leather armor stared at the scorched ground beside him, horror filling his eyes as he stared at Xiang Shifeng.
Compared to the distant players, he had a much clearer view of Shifeng's attack.
From the moment Shifeng used a Skill to the moment the Assassin pounced on him, as a Tier 2 Assassin, he hadn't been able to react in time. By the time he heard the sound of the attack, the streaks of blue light had already arrived beside him. Yet, despite seeing everything clearly, he had been unable to react.
This situation was simply too frightening. He simply couldn't fathom how Shifeng had done it.
Ordinary expert players might not understand the significance of this situation, but he understood it very well.
There was a prerequisite for activating a Lifesaving Skill, and that was, a player had to have the thought of activating the Skill in their mind. In other words, they had to silently chant the Skill in order to activate the Lifesaving Skill. If a Lifesaving Skill could land an attack before this thought appeared, then even the most powerful Lifesaving Skill would be useless.
In other words, if Shifeng wanted to, he could kill even Assassins, who were famed for their Lifesaving Skills, with a single slash.
This realization instantly shattered his hope of fighting Shifeng to the death.
Although Shi Feng's attack seemed inconceivable, it wasn't impossible for experts who understood the Truth Realm to block it. After all, Shi Feng's attack was the foundation of the Truth Realm. Without a certain amount of training, it was impossible to react to Shi Feng's attack with such super-fast reaction speed.
In addition, Shifeng's sudden attack had surprised everyone, causing them to react a beat slower. As a result, Lightning Edge had killed everyone before they could react.
After Shifeng finished his attack, he glanced at the crowd before sheathing Killing Ray and turning to leave. Meanwhile, the remaining 100-plus Assassins stood where they were, quietly watching Shifeng's departure.
After all, every Assassin present had been stunned by Shifeng's attack. None of them dared to move forward.
"Guild Leader, Hei Yan has left. Are we still going to attack?" A Level 54, Tier 2 Shield Warrior, who wielded a square shield, asked the Level 54, Tier 2 Ranger beside him.
"Attack? You? "The Tier 2 Ranger rolled his eyes at the Shield Warrior.
The Tier 2 Shield Warrior instinctively shook his head and shrunk his neck. Since he had been promoted to Tier 2 at this stage of the game, his combat standards were naturally much higher than ordinary experts'. He could see just how frightening Shifeng's attack was. He wasn't confident that he could block such an expert's attack.
Meanwhile, after Shifeng's figure disappeared, the several thousand Dark Guild and Dark Adventurer Team members still stood quietly. Some independent players passing by were stupefied when they saw this scene.
Too strong!
With just one attack, Shi Feng had intimidated several thousand Dark Players.
