Whether it was Starlink's or Blackwater's experts, none of them reacted to Shifeng's words. They simply watched as Alluring Summer and Jian Ying's auras skyrocketed.
At this moment, the entire arena fell silent. Practically everyone couldn't help but stare at the two combatants, unable to believe their eyes.
"What a powerful aura!"
"How is this possible? Didn't they say that Berserk Skills aren't allowed in the arena? "
The auras Alluring Summer and Jian Ying radiated were completely different from before. For a moment, the spectators even felt as if they were facing Grand Lords of the same level.
In God's Domain, when players couldn't figure out their opponents' information, they would rely on the aura they radiated to determine their opponent's strength. After all, it was impossible to fake one's aura. This was especially true for expert players. Most of the time, experts relied on this method to avoid unnecessary deaths.
Meanwhile, the increase in one's aura also meant that one's strength had increased.
However, players couldn't use tools or Berserk Skills or Spells in the Auction Arena, yet these two combatants were still so powerful. It was simply unbelievable.
Meanwhile, the sudden change in Alluring Summer and Shadow Sword caused Blackwater's members to shudder involuntarily. They immediately stopped their attacks and put some distance between themselves and Shadow Sword and Alluring Summer. None of them dared to take action recklessly.
If an apex expert with aura rivaled that of a Domain Realm expert casually attacked and exposed a weakness, the battle might end in an instant.
"Don't be fooled!" Snow Scar bellowed when he saw that his team had stopped fighting. "Nobody can use Berserk Skills to increase their strength in the arena! They must have used some special Skill to increase the mental pressure they exert on players! Their combat power hasn't increased at all! This is nothing more than their final struggle before death! "
In God's Domain, there were weapons and equipment that could temporarily increase the mental pressure players exerted on players. Only, such weapons and equipment were extremely rare.
Now that Alluring Summer and Jian Ying's auras had skyrocketed, aside from a Berserk Skill, this was the only other explanation.
"That gave me a fright. For a moment, I thought that Ling Yi had summoned two more monsters. It turns out that they're just weapons and equipment that increase their auras."
"I was almost fooled by Hei Yan. How can there be monster-level masters just because you said so? It's already unbelievable that there are two of Ling Yi's."
"But Ling Yi is also amazing. She actually managed to get her hands on such weapons and equipment."
"Yes! I've heard that such weapons and equipment are extremely rare. I've only heard of them before, but I've never seen one before. Although they can't increase a player's combat power, they can affect a player's mental state and slow their reactions. They are extremely useful in PvP. "
When the various major powers' experts heard Snow Scar's explanation, realization dawned on them. They all agreed that this situation made sense. Otherwise, two monster-level combatants would be too frightening.
"Weapons and equipment that can increase one's power?" Sword Demon glanced at Alluring Summer and Jian Ying. He then turned to the Shifeng, smiling as he shook his head. "And here I thought you had some tricks up your sleeve. It seems you've run out of tricks. Although weapons and equipment that can increase one's power are quite effective in PvP, it's a pity that such tricks are useless against veteran experts. They'll only buy you time."
"Is that so?" The Shifeng smiled calmly.
Suddenly, the atmosphere around the Shifeng changed. The Shifeng's aura, which had been akin to a primordial beast, began to skyrocket. The space around the Shifeng began to blur. Meanwhile, Sword Demon's expression darkened when he saw this.
If the Shifeng's aura had been as vast as the ocean before, even peak experts would find it difficult to breathe against it, then the current aura was as heavy as mercury.
"You …" Fear filled Sword Demon's face as he stared at the Shifeng.
After all was said and done, he was an apex expert in God's Domain. Any superpower would fear him, yet now, he felt death coming from the Shifeng.
It was as if the person standing before him wasn't a player, but a humanoid tyrannosaurus!
Moreover, the Shifeng had excellent control over his aura. His aura only enveloped the area around him, preventing others from sensing it.
"Do you still think I'm stalling for time?" Shifeng smiled as he looked at Sword Demon.
Secret Techniques were different from Skills and Spells. They were classified as combat techniques. Secret Techniques did not increase a player's Basic Attributes. They only allowed players to unleash their potential. Hence, players could use Secret Techniques freely even in the Auction Arena. Moreover, players did not need to worry about dropping Secret Techniques upon death. After all, players did not truly die in the Auction Arena.
This was also why secret techniques were so valuable. In the past, countless powers had been willing to trade Epic Set Equipment for a Basic Secret Technique. After all, Basic Secret Techniques were far more useful than Epic Set Equipment in the Auction Arena.
Secret Techniques' improvement of physique was secondary. More importantly, they allowed players to enter a Super Sensory state, which allowed them to perceive and magnify things they normally couldn't. As for how much they could utilize the Super Sensory state, that was up to them.
As soon as Shifeng finished speaking, Sword Demon had a bad premonition.
When he looked at Shifeng's smile, he felt as if he were mocking an ignorant fool. Moreover, the man's gaze was as if he were looking at an ant. Sword Demon had seen such a gaze from many powerhouses before.
"Quick! Everyone, retreat! "Sword Demon shouted instinctively.
Previously, when he had seen Alluring Summer and Jian Ying's auras, he hadn't been able to determine whether the increase in their auras was real or not. Now, however, he was certain that the increase in their auras wasn't due to weapons or equipment. Rather, it was due to the players themselves.
"Retreat?"
"Why?"
Starlink's experts were confused when they heard Sword Demon's command. Blackwater's members also turned to look at Sword Demon in confusion. They couldn't understand what Sword Demon was trying to say.
Victory was clearly within their grasp. If the battle continued for another few dozen seconds, the battle would be over. Yet, Sword Demon was telling them to retreat?
"Sword Demon cherishes talent too much." Blindman frowned as he looked at Sword Demon.
"Cherishes talent?" Mu Cheng asked as he looked at Sword Demon's grim expression. No matter how he looked at it, Sword Demon's expression wasn't cherishing talent. Rather, it was as if he had just seen something terrifying.
Sword Demon grew anxious when he saw his teammates' confused expressions. Just as he was about to explain himself, a deep chuckle reached his ears.
"Trying to run now? It's too late! "
As the voice entered Sword Demon's brain, it instinctively swung its greatsword at the Swordsman, who had suddenly appeared before it. Suddenly, Sword Demon split into three, each of them executing multiple slashes at the Swordsman, each of which carried more power than a Grand Lord of the same level.
This move was Sword Demon's trump card, the strongest Additional Skill on his weapon, Phantom Assault.
Under Sword Demon's control, he could even kill a Domain Realm expert instantly without an Invulnerability Skill.
However, when the Shifeng faced a dozen or so Jian Ying attacks, Sword Demon used Killing Ray to block them all with one hand. His reaction speed was noticeably faster than before. As if the Jian Ying were afraid of the Shifeng, they took the initiative to evade the Shifeng's attacks, allowing the Shifeng to reach Sword Demon with ease.
Shadow Blade!
Ten sword lights simultaneously pierced towards Sword Demon, each sword light seemingly knowing Sword Demon's weakness. However, Sword Demon refused to be outdone. Activating an Advanced Defensive Combat Technique, he dodged and blocked the attacks with all his might.
One sword light … Two sword lights … Three sword lights …
By the time Sword Demon blocked the seventh sword light, he could no longer keep up. Three sword lights pierced through his body, instantly wiping out his remaining two-thirds HP.
