After Shifeng gave his instructions, Late Autumn and the others breathed a sigh of relief and rested. They had no intention of asking why the Shifeng had entered the maze. The Shifeng was, after all, a Guild Leader. There had to be a reason for him to be here. If they probed too deeply into the matter, they'd only annoy the Shifeng.
Moreover, even if they wanted to enter the maze, they didn't have the strength to do so.
There were plenty of Level 65-plus Undead inside the maze, including many Great Lords. With their strength alone, they wouldn't dare venture too far into the maze. If they encountered a Grand Lord, they'd be doomed.
The Shifeng easily dodged the Undead's attacks. Moreover, the Undead's speed couldn't keep up with the Shifeng's, and the distance between them continued to widen. In just a few seconds, the Shifeng had vanished from their sights. It was impossible for the Undead to catch up.
"The difference in strength is simply too massive." Colorful Fruit revealed a bitter smile as she watched the Swordsman's figure disappear.
"It is, but we still have a chance to catch up," Late Autumn said, nodding. "An adventurer alliance has appeared in the Fire Dragon Empire, and it specifically invites powerful adventurer teams to join it. I've heard that even Super Guilds have to show some respect to this alliance. Moreover, this adventurer alliance specializes in nurturing experts. I've received an invitation to join them before, but I didn't pay them any heed. It seems that we should pay them a visit."
Late Autumn had been very confident in the Purple Shadow adventurer team's strength. He had thought that, even if the adventurer team wasn't a match for the various superpowers, the various superpowers wouldn't have an easy time dealing with them. However, it would seem that he had been gravely mistaken.
Before the various superpowers, the adventurer team wouldn't even be able to protect itself, much less establish itself in the Dark Night Empire.
Unless they could become monsters like the Shifeng, they'd be able to strike fear into Bright Dawn's heart.
Meanwhile, the Fire Dragon Empire's adventurer alliance was an existence that even Super Guilds had to deal with. The Fire Dragon Empire was one of God's Domain's Four Great Empires. The Dark Night Empire simply couldn't compare to it. Plenty of superpowers had established themselves in the empire, including several Super Guilds.
The fact that the adventurer alliance had established itself in the Fire Dragon Empire spoke volumes.
He had never wanted to join a Guild. Otherwise, he would've long since joined Starlink with his brothers. After all, Starlink had recruited a large number of adventurer teams.
"Commander, can we really catch up?" Colorful Fruit turned to Late Autumn, anticipation flashing in her eyes.
The strength of the Shifeng was deeply ingrained in her heart. What she wanted to do the most now was to one day stand on the same stage as the Shifeng, and not be a frog at the bottom of a well in the Dark Night Empire.
"It shouldn't be a problem. That alliance has promised that as long as you pass their training test, you will be able to stand at the peak of God's Domain in the future," Late Autumn said.
Previously, he had scoffed at the Purple Shadow adventurer team's nonsense. After all, the Purple Shadow adventurer team already stood at the apex of the Dark Night Empire.
Now, however, it would seem that Zero Wing was still far from being a match for the various superpowers. Moreover, a power capable of standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the various superpowers should be aware of the various superpowers' strength. Since Zero Wing had declared that anyone who passed the test could become an apex expert, it shouldn't be a lie.
"Wonderful! The next time we meet, I must stand on the same stage as him!" Colorful Fruit's fighting spirit burned with passion.
At this moment, aside from Colorful Fruit, Half Feather, and the other great experts from the adventurer team shared the same thought.
While the Purple Shadow adventurer team rested, the Shifeng activated Gale Domain to shake off the Undead in their path. These Undead were survivors of the Great Ancient War. Not only did they have high combat standards, but they also fought in an organized manner. Even the Shifeng would have to spend a lot of time fighting them head-on.
Fortunately, these Undead weren't monsters that chased players relentlessly. As long as players put more than 300 yards between them and the Undead, they would give up.
With their Level 76 Basic Attributes, the Shifeng were already faster than Great Lords of the same level. The Level 65 Undead had no chance of catching up to them. The Shifeng easily passed through one area after another. The deeper the Shifeng ventured into the Dark Night Empire, the higher the Undead's levels became.
The Level 65 Undead slowly increased to Level 67, and then to Level 70.
Finally, after running for over an hour, the Shifeng arrived before an ancient, dilapidated palace. The palace was located in a cave surrounded by a magic barrier. The wandering Undead didn't dare approach within 100 yards of the palace.
Without hesitation, the Shifeng entered the palace.
The magic barrier only targeted the Undead. It was useless against the living.
Aside from an illusory old man in gray robes, there were no other living creatures inside the palace. If players used an Advanced Identification Skill, they would discover that this old man was a Level 180, Tier 4 Hero.
In God's Domain, the title Hero was not something that could be obtained easily. Anyone who received the title would be invincible among those of the same tier. Meanwhile, not only was this old man a Hero, but he had also received the title from a God. He had received the God's blessing and was the strongest NPC in the Bottomless Abyss.
"Young adventurer, this isn't a place for the living." The Hero, Saib, abruptly opened his eyes when he saw the Shifeng enter the palace. Immediately, a frightening aura spread throughout the palace.
If an ordinary Tier 2 player were in the palace right now, they would've been paralyzed by this aura. However, the Shifeng had several Fragmented Legendary items on him. He also had a Bloodline. Hence, he could just barely endure this aura.
"Lord Hero Saib, I have come here to follow the God's will and banish the darkness," the Shifeng said respectfully as he approached within 30 yards of Saib.
If players wished to transfer a town to the Bottomless Abyss, they needed to fulfill three conditions.
The third condition could be considered a hidden condition. They needed to pass Saib's test. If they failed to withstand Saib's aura, then everything would be for naught. Only by withstanding Saib's aura would they have a chance to negotiate.
In the past, 90% of the major powers' players had died during this first step. Ordinary experts simply couldn't withstand Saib's aura. At the very least, they needed to have Basic Attributes that rivaled Tier 3 players of the same level. Otherwise, they would only kneel and be teleported out of the palace.
"Not bad. You actually managed to get so close to me. This proves that you possess some strength to deal with the darkness," Saib said, nodding. When he saw that the Shifeng seemed unaffected, he smiled and nodded. "However, it's still too early for you to banish the darkness here. Since you are a Bronze Legatee, I can construct a stable residence for you. You can fight the darkness here for a long time. However, you need to hand over 6,000 Mana Stones."
"Lord Saib, here are the 6,000 Mana Stones you need," the Shifeng said as he took out the 6,000 Mana Stones he had prepared beforehand.
To prepare these 6,000 Mana Stones, the Guild had exhausted all of its hard-earned Magic Crystals. However, compared to the possibility of transferring a town to the Bottomless Abyss, this price was nothing.
"Very good. With so many Mana Stones, we should be able to resist the darkness's corrosion." Saib could not help but glance at the Shifeng as he accepted the 6,000 Mana Stones. He then began to chant an incantation.
As Saib chanted the incantation, the 6,000 Mana Stones merged into one, transforming into a resplendent gemstone that glowed with a golden light.
"With this item, you can set up a magic barrier on this floor, preventing the darkness from corroding your residence. Remember, this item can only be used on this floor," Saib said seriously as he handed the gemstone to the Shifeng.
When the Shifeng received the gemstone, he sighed ruefully.
