As soon as Shifeng took a step forward, the five Twin-headed Netherfire Wolves did something that surprised even Shifeng.
As if they had come to an agreement, the five Netherfire Wolves split up and fled without hesitation. They didn't have the self-awareness of being monsters at all.
Their intellect is so high? Shifeng frowned as he watched the Netherfire Wolves flee.
It wasn't that he hadn't seen monsters that knew how to run away before, but it was definitely rare for a monster to run away after being severely injured.
If this were a normal field raid, he wouldn't have to worry about it. However, there was a time limit, which increased the raid's difficulty significantly. After all, the Netherfire Wolves weren't slow. Now that they had split up and joined other wolf packs, both the time and difficulty of killing one would increase significantly. Most likely, even Half-step Refinement Realm experts wouldn't be able to complete this trial.
However, before the Netherfire Wolves could take more than a few steps, Shifeng used Void Steps and appeared beside one of them. The Netherfire Wolves didn't notice him at all.
"Is there such a huge improvement in combat skills here?" Shi Feng was astonished when he saw that the Netherfire Wolf hadn't noticed him in the slightest. The Netherfire Wolf still had one of its heads turning to look at him.
Unlike God's Domain's monsters, players relied on their eyes to determine their targets, while God's Domain's monsters relied on their perception. Hence, it was very difficult to approach a monster with Void Steps. It was similar to approaching Void Realm experts. Void Realm experts didn't rely on their eyes to see the world.
Void Steps, which relied solely on deceiving one's visual nerves, wouldn't be effective. On the contrary, it would backfire, giving enemies an opportunity to exploit.
However, Shi Feng's Void Steps didn't just trick visual nerves into ignoring him. With the Eternal Energy enveloping him, it was as if he had become one with his surroundings. Even the Netherfire Wolves' perception wouldn't be able to detect him immediately.
Before the Two-headed Netherfire Wolf could react, Shi Feng swung Killing Ray at the Grand Lord once more.
Suddenly, Killing Ray disappeared from Shifeng's hand. Following which, streaks of crimson light shot out of the Netherfire Wolves' bodies, and a net of sword cuts appeared on the Netherfire Wolves' bodies. Damages of over -100,000 appeared above the Netherfire Wolves' heads, one after another.
Secret Skill, Lightning Flash!
Lightning Flash was an attack-type Bronze Combat Technique that Shifeng had gone to great lengths to obtain. However, compared to ordinary Bronze Combat Techniques, such as Sword's Transmigration, Lightning Flash was far more complex and difficult to execute. Even after reaching the Ascension Realm, Shifeng still had a hard time executing Lightning Flash.
In Shifeng's opinion, they would have to wait until they reached Tier 3 before they could truly use Lightning Flash.
However, now that he had the help of the Eternal Energy, he was forced to use his secret technique, Lightning Flash.
With just one attack, the Two-headed Netherfire Wolf lost a significant chunk of its HP, losing nearly one-twelfth of its HP. However, after Shifeng used Lightning Flash, he felt as if his Essence, Vitality, and Concentration had been sapped from his body.
"It's a pity that I'm still a little lacking. However, it's not like I can't use it after reaching Tier 2." Shifeng grew excited when he sensed his mental state.
The Secret Technique, Lightning Flash, was not something a Bronze Combat Technique like Sword's Transmigration could compare to. Lightning Flash was an attack-type combat technique. Although Sword's Transmigration had powerful offensive capabilities, it also had defensive capabilities. Lightning Flash was a Bronze Combat Technique that combined both offensive and defensive capabilities.
With a Bronze Combat Technique in its complete form, even a Void Realm expert could suppress a Domain Realm expert.
However, Shifeng's Secret Technique, Lightning Flash, wasn't in its complete form yet. He could only execute a small portion of it.
A perfect version of Lightning Flash required him to execute 17 consecutive slashes. When these 17 slashes intertwined perfectly with each other, Lightning Flash would allow him to instantly suppress a Domain Realm expert. Otherwise, even a Void Realm expert wouldn't be able to suppress a Domain Realm expert.
At this moment, Shi Feng had only executed 13 slashes in the blink of an eye, barely meeting Lightning Flash's minimum standard. In truth, Shi Feng's attack was only at the standard of an Advanced Combat Technique, not a Bronze Combat Technique.
After Shifeng's first attack, Shifeng made a brief adjustment and executed Lightning Flash on the Two-headed Netherfire Wolf once more.
Inside the Tower of Four Gods, Shi Feng's recovery speed was many times faster than in the outside world. Even if he used a Bronze Combat Technique, he could recover quickly. Naturally, he couldn't let such an opportunity go to waste.
In less than 20 seconds, Shifeng had slain the Level 93 Two-headed Netherfire Wolf. Not even a six-man party could match his speed.
While Shifeng trained, Swimming Dragon, Melody, Thoughtful Rain, Blue Bamboo, and the others in the Tower of Four Gods had discovered the benefits of the Tower of Four Gods. They, too, began to train with the Two-headed Netherfire Wolf.
Over the next three days, Shifeng killed the Two-headed Netherfire Wolves in a frenzy. He could've killed the Netherfire Wolves in less than a day. However, Shifeng wasn't in a hurry to kill the Netherfire Wolves. Instead, he focused on perfecting Lightning Flash and improving his Tier 2 Skill's Completion Rate.
His leveling speed wasn't any slower than his grinding speed in the outside world. Moreover, he had obtained plenty of Level 90 Bronze Weapons and Equipment.
Over the past three days, Shi Feng had improved by leaps and bounds. Very quickly, he was able to execute Lightning Flash steadily. Now, he only needed to expend one-third of his Concentration. He did not need to expend half of his Concentration in one go. However, his current limit was still 13 slashes. He still felt a little off from executing 14 slashes.
When the three-day limit was almost up, Shifeng finally killed the last Two-headed Netherfire Wolf.
After Shifeng killed the last Netherfire Wolf, the scenery before him changed. Although he was still in a wasteland, the monsters had changed.
There were Undead Warriors wielding shields and weapons everywhere. These Undead Warriors were in groups of six. Some specialized in defense, some specialized in complex attacks, and some were in charge of ranged attacks. It was as if they were a small party specialized in dealing with Bosses.
[Ghost Warrior] (Undead, Lord) Level 93 HP 30,000,000/30,000,000
System: Kill 600 Ghost Warriors within three days. If you fail to complete this task within the time limit, the challenge will be deemed a failure.
Seeing this, Shifeng wasted no time and dashed up to a Ghost party.
When the Ghost party saw Shi Feng, they did not panic at all. Two shield-wielding Ghost Warriors moved to block Shi Feng, while two spear-wielding Ghost Warriors stood behind the Swordsman, ready to launch their attacks the instant Shi Feng attacked. Meanwhile, the Ghost Warriors at the rear of the party wielded bows and arrows, blocking Shi Feng from the sides.
Meanwhile, the Ghost Warriors' combat standards were clearly higher than the Twin-headed Netherfire Wolves'. Every one of them had combat standards at the Trial Tower's third floor's middle stage. Ordinary Tier 2 experts would most likely die if they went up against six Ghost Warriors.
However, in Shifeng's opinion, these Ghost Warriors posed no threat to him. He then began to practice his Secret Technique, Lightning Flash.
Compared to fighting monsters, fighting humanoid creatures was much easier. The Ghost Warriors' loot and EXP were also significantly higher than the Two-headed Netherfire Wolves'. Although the Netherfire Wolves didn't drop a single piece of Mysterious-Iron Equipment, the Ghost Warriors occasionally dropped Level 90 Mysterious-Iron Equipment. The Two-headed Netherfire Wolves already gave more EXP than Lords of the same level, but the Ghost Warriors gave more than three times as much EXP as the Netherfire Wolves did. As a result, Shifeng leveled up rapidly.
After clearing the Ghost Warriors' trial, Shifeng had reached Level 94.
The scene before Shifeng's eyes flickered once more. The third trial gave Shifeng a fright.
They were currently in an ancient battle arena, and ten fully-armed Giants stood in the center. Every one of these Giants was Tier 2. They weren't monsters, but bona fide Tier 2 NPCs.
[Giant Gladiator] (Giant, Tier 2) Level 94 HP 5,400,000/5,400,000
Giants were a race with extraordinary talents. Not only were they extraordinarily strong, but they also had an unparalleled affinity with the earth. They were natural-born warriors. Moreover, unlike players, NPCs could perfectly inherit the Giant race's talents. Their combat power was far superior to ordinary Tier 2 NPCs, yet there were ten of them …
