The Ancient Earth Serpent's attack caught Shifeng off guard. Even a Tier 3 peak expert would have trouble dealing with the Serpent's attack, much less a Level 70, Tier 2 Shifeng.
[Ancient Earth Serpent] (Primordial Ferocious Beast, Mythic) Level 80 HP?????
It's over!
Shifeng could only watch as the Ancient Earth Serpent's mountainous mouth closed in on him. He had no choice but to activate Absolute Domain, but it was useless.
The Ancient Earth Serpent was an apex existence among Primordial Ferocious Beasts. In ancient times, the Ancient Earth Serpent could even contend with Gods. Its Life Rating was no lower than that of the Dragon race.
Legend had it that the strongest Ancient Earth Serpent was capable of devouring even Gods. Meanwhile, the Ancient Earth Serpent's stomach contained a separate space. Gods that entered the space would die.
Although the Ancient Earth Serpent was only a Level 80 Mythic monster, it was a bona fide Primordial Ferocious Beast.
Even if Shi Feng activated Absolute Domain, he couldn't avoid being devoured by the Ancient Earth Serpent.
In the blink of an eye, the Ancient Earth Serpent devoured Shifeng and vanished from the ancient temple. After devouring Shifeng, the Ancient Earth Serpent charged at the Demon and Fire Spirit, who had just recovered from their shock.
Meanwhile, Shifeng, who had been devoured by the Ancient Earth Serpent, suddenly felt his vision darken. Although he hadn't received any damage, a powerful suction force had pulled him into a tiny black dot inside the Ancient Earth Serpent's stomach. The suction force was so powerful that Shifeng couldn't move at all.
Although the black dot seemed small, the closer Shifeng got to the Ancient Earth Serpent, the larger it grew.
We failed, just like that? Shifeng was speechless as he watched the black dot grow larger.
Although he hadn't personally participated in the Thunder Axe City Exploration Quest in the past, he had, more or less, heard about it. However, he had never heard of a Primordial Ferocious Beast like the Ancient Earth Serpent as the Guardian Boss. The Guardian Boss should only be an ordinary Mythic monster.
As long as he used the Sealing Stone to seal the Ancient Earth Serpent, he could deal with the weakened Mythic monster.
If a monster like the Ancient Earth Serpent were to guard the Sealing Stone, even the Sealing Stone would be meaningless. After all, a Grand Lord ranked Ancient Earth Serpent wasn't an existence that Level 80 players could defeat, even if they summoned a Tier 4 combatant.
The Ancient Earth Serpent's Life Rating rivaled that of a Dragon's. Even though it was only a Grand Lord, it could easily defeat a Mythic monster of the same level. This was why the Ancient Earth Serpent was so frightening. Moreover, as a Primordial Ferocious Beast, its Life Rating was extraordinarily high. Unlike other monsters, which recovered 1% of their battle recovery every five seconds, the Ancient Earth Serpent could recover 2% of its battle recovery every five seconds. It also possessed heaven-defying Innate Skills.
In the past, a Level 150, Tier 4, Advanced Mythic ranked Ancient Earth Serpent had appeared in God's Domain. Even a 100-man team of Level 180, Tier 5 experts had been helpless against it.
Even the weakest member of this 100-man team was a Level 180, Tier 4 player, and 15 of them were Tier 5 players. This was the maximum combat power a superpower could muster back then, yet it had still been annihilated.
In the end, a Tier 6 God-ranked player had appeared and killed the Level 150 Ancient Earth Serpent.
Even a Level 100, Tier 3 team wouldn't stand a chance against a Level 80 Mythic ranked Ancient Earth Serpent. They would only have a chance of defeating it if they used the Sealing Stone.
A short moment later, Shi Feng was sucked into the black dot. He felt space-time shift, and when he opened his eyes again, the scene before him left him dumbfounded.
"What is this place?" Shifeng stared at his surroundings, unable to react for a moment.
He was actually standing on an altar floating in the void. A magic barrier protected the altar, preventing it from being crushed by the boundless world's power. Meanwhile, a gigantic serpent slithered around the city-sized altar. This serpent was none other than the gigantic Ancient Earth Serpent.
If not for this magic barrier, Shifeng had no doubt that the Ancient Earth Serpent would've devoured the altar in just a few bites.
As Shifeng stood on the altar, he noticed that the altar looked like a city square. It was extremely spacious, with only 12 different-colored pillars of light in the center of the altar. At the center of each pillar of light was a Treasure Chest the size of a table. This Treasure Chest was made of Seven Luminaries Crystal.
Seven Luminaries Crystals were extremely rare and valuable in God's Domain. A fist-sized Seven Luminaries Crystal could buy an ordinary player a lifetime of luxury, yet the Treasure Chest before him was made entirely of Seven Luminaries Crystals.
Shifeng couldn't help but approach the Treasure Chest. However, when he was less than 200 yards away from the Treasure Chest, the 12 pillars of light around the Treasure Chest suddenly released a dazzling glow. Then, one pillar of light after another shot at Shifeng. Not only were these pillars of light incredibly fast, but they were also flexible.
A total of 12 pillars of light bombarded Shifeng from all directions.
Shifeng didn't dare to be careless. Now that Absolute Domain was no longer effective, he immediately activated Heavenly Dragon's Power and brandished his two swords to defend himself.
Boom … Boom … Boom …
Every pillar of light had the power of a Tier 4 Mythic monster. The instant Shifeng collided with the pillars of light, he felt his arms go numb. Fortunately, not only had he blocked all of the attacks, but he had also deflected some of the attacks. As a result, he hadn't received much damage. The first wave of attacks had only taken a little over 10,000 HP from Shifeng. Now that he had activated Heavenly Dragon's Power, he wouldn't have a problem enduring 40 or so attacks.
Moreover, as the 12 pillars of light lit up, the altar's surroundings began to crumble. There was less space for Shi Feng to stand on.
It seems I have no choice but to risk it!
Shifeng understood that he didn't have much time left. If he didn't die to the 12 pillars of light, he would fall into the endless void. His only option was to get to the Treasure Chest.
Immediately, Shifeng increased his speed and dashed toward the Treasure Chest. However, the closer he got to the Treasure Chest, the more cunning the 12 pillars of light became. The attacks became increasingly difficult for Shifeng to deal with.
Why does this feel so similar to the Realms of Truth's trial? After reaching the 100-yard mark, Shifeng suddenly realized that the 12 pillars of light targeted him. If he hadn't reached the Realms of Truth yet, he wouldn't have been able to get within 100 yards of the Treasure Chest. Is this trial also testing players who have reached the Realms of Truth?
Meanwhile, the closer Shifeng got to the Treasure Chest, the more frenzied the 12 pillars of light became. If he hadn't reached the Ascension Realm, he wouldn't have been able to advance by even half a step.
With no other choice, Shifeng had no choice but to use Sword's Transmigration, his strongest attack. Even though using Sword's Transmigration consumed a lot of Stamina and Concentration, he had no choice but to use it.
Even so, Shifeng's HP rapidly decreased. Even after activating Void Shield, he still couldn't keep up with the attacks.
When Shifeng was within 50 yards of the Treasure Chest, the attacks became even more frenzied. Void Shield eventually shattered, and the Shifeng's HP plummeted.
80% … 60% … 30% …
When only 20 yards separated Shi Feng from the Treasure Chest, he didn't have enough HP to reach the Treasure Chest. More importantly, he couldn't hold on any longer.
F * ck it!
Faced with a predicament where he couldn't block the attacks with his two swords, Shifeng steeled himself and activated Blade Awakening, increasing his Basic Attributes and physique by a large margin. He then used the Legacy Skill, Blade Dance, which he was extremely weak in.
Immediately, he unsheathed Netherworld Brilliance, a weapon he hadn't used until now. Together with Killing Ray and the Abyssal Blade, they defended against the incoming beams.
When all three swords executed Sword's Orbit simultaneously, the Skill's defensive capabilities increased significantly.
