The graveyard was located near the center of the forest, and approaching it was extremely difficult. Moreover, the Undead were several times denser than in the forest's outer regions. Tier 2 players couldn't even approach the graveyard by themselves, much less enter it.
Even Shifeng felt his scalp tingle as he faced several hundred Lord ranked Undead.
Fortunately, he had the 21 Abyssal Phantoms to block the Undead. Since he was stronger than the Lord ranked Undead, he could just barely keep the Undead at bay. Unfortunately, the Abyssal Phantoms' duration was limited, and they couldn't hold off the endless horde for long.
If he couldn't stop these Undead from approaching him, although he was confident that he could escape without dying, he wouldn't be able to do anything else. He'd have no choice but to fend off these Undead's attacks.
The Abyssal Phantoms' duration was the key to obtaining a Legacy.
Fortunately, I reached the graveyard in 42 seconds. Shifeng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the remaining duration of the Abyssal Phantoms.
He hadn't chosen the majestic shrine in the forest's center for two reasons: the Tier 4 Heroic Spirit and the lack of time. The graveyard's second floor was his limit.
Before Shifeng could catch his breath, the silver-armored Heroic Spirit wielding a flaming greatsword beside the graveyard opened its eyes. Immediately, a faint red Domain enveloped the graveyard, and Shifeng's Basic Attributes, physique, and Movement Speed plummeted. The Heroic Spirit's rate only stabilized after falling by 20%.
[Urdia (Flame Knight)] (Heroic Spirit, Tier 3 Berserker King) Level 101 HP 78,000,000/78,000,000
A Domain?! Shifeng's expression darkened when he saw Urdia.
He hadn't doubted that Urdia could kill Tier 3 players instantly, but he hadn't expected the Heroic Spirit to be this strong.
Urdia's HP might not have increased by much compared to other Tier 3 Heroic Spirits, only by 20,000,000, but for Heroic Spirits of the same tier and level, a Heroic Spirit's HP was a direct reflection of its strength.
In other words, Urdia's Basic Attributes were at least 30% higher than the previous Tier 3 Heroic Spirit. His combat power had also increased. Normally, only Tier 4 NPCs could control a Domain. With this, killing Tier 3 players would be child's play for Urdia.
"Adventurer, you are very brave, daring to come to the Land of Eternal Rest in search of the Sage's inheritance. You are the first one in over a thousand years. I hope you can bring me some fun." Urdia looked like a Shifeng, but he didn't attack like the Heroic Spirits from before. Instead, he chatted and laughed like a real person as he slowly approached Xiang Shifeng.
Seeing such a heroic spirit, a chill ran down the Shifeng's spine.
At the end of the day, Heroic Spirits weren't NPCs, so their intellect was significantly lower. Shi Feng had never seen a Tier 3 Heroic Spirit with such high intellect.
Seeing that Urdia was within 50 yards of him, the Shifeng didn't dare to be careless. Without hesitation, he took out the Ring of Gospel and used 7,000 Magic Crystals to activate Ring of Brilliance and Miniature World.
However, that wasn't enough. The Shifeng then activated Blade Liberation, skyrocketing his Basic Attributes. At the same time, he activated Twilight Blade's Twilight of the Gods and Twilight's Shadow, summoning eight physical doppelgangers.
Due to Shi Feng's Skills, the doppelgangers' Basic Attributes had skyrocketed. As a result, the doppelgangers' Strength rivaled that of a Grand Lord of the same level.
With eight physical doppelgangers with the strength of a Grand Lord, they could even put up a fight against a Tier 4 Mythic monster.
However, before the Shifeng could take action, Urdia vanished. In the blink of an eye, he appeared before the eight doppelgangers and swung his flaming greatsword.
In the next moment, eight sword lights blossomed and shot toward the eight doppelgangers.
Reacting quickly, Shi Feng's eight doppelgangers unsheathed their swords to block the incoming sword light. However, the instant their swords came into contact with the sword light, the doppelgangers felt as if they had been struck. The doppelgangers were thrown over a dozen yards away, their swords humming as they lost over 20,000 HP …
"A Bronze Combat Technique?" Shi Feng's expression turned indescribably grim as he watched the eight sword lights disappear.
Sword Slash!
Although Urdia had only executed Eight Extreme Slashes, the Heroic Spirit's combat technique's Completion Rate was far higher than Miracle Dragon's. It was no longer an Advanced Combat Technique. The only explanation was that it was a Bronze Combat Technique.
A Tier 3 Heroic Spirit capable of using a Bronze Combat Technique!
No one would believe this. In fact, they would laugh at the Shifeng. Heroic Spirits might be heroes in the afterlife, but they weren't heroes. Their intellect, in particular, was inferior to that of ordinary NPCs. Just the fact that a Heroic Spirit could use an Advanced Combat Technique was already impressive. Using a Bronze Combat Technique, which not even Tier 3 NPCs could use, was simply a dream.
And yet, such a thing had actually happened …
After repelling the eight doppelgangers, Urdia shifted his gaze to Shifeng. He then activated Flame Charge and charged at the Swordsman. Even if his Skill Completion Rate wasn't 100%, it was at least 99%.
Shifeng didn't dare take Urdia's attack head-on. Instead, he activated Phantom Kill and had his doppelganger use Blade Liberation to block the attack.
Setting aside the fact that Urdia possessed many unknown methods, just the Tier 3 Heroic Spirit's extraordinary Strength and combat techniques should be enough to send Shi Feng flying or even kill him, even after he had used God's Dusk.
He was currently in the middle of his Tier 3 Promotion Quest. If he died here, he'd have to wait a long time for his next Promotion Quest. He couldn't afford to take this risk.
The instant his doppelganger activated Defensive Blade, Urdia's Flame Charge came to an abrupt halt. He then stabbed his flaming greatsword into the ground, and dozens of sword lights shot from the ground beneath his doppelganger's feet.
Tier 3 Skill, Storm Twist!
In the blink of an eye, Defensive Blade shattered. Shifeng had no choice but to divert a large portion of his attention to instruct his doppelganger to execute Sword's Orbit.
Sword's Orbit shattered the incoming sword lights, forcing the doppelganger to stumble back. Although Sword's Orbit had blocked all of the sword lights, the doppelganger was forced to retreat by over a dozen steps. Every time the doppelganger collided with Urdia's doppelganger, it lost nearly 10,000 HP. A single Skill had cost the doppelganger over 200,000 HP …
Now, not to mention stalling for time, his doppelganger would be a problem.
His doppelganger couldn't keep Urdia occupied for much longer, and his doppelganger couldn't hold the Swordsman back for much longer. Seeing this, Shi Feng grew anxious.
If he activated Twofold Berserk, he could stall Urdia for a while, but only players could activate the graveyard. Delaying Urdia with his main body was pointless.
The invincible skill of Absolute Domain was his trump card to escape with his life. Otherwise, if he was killed after taking away the inheritance, it would be equivalent to not getting anything, and the quest would fail.
"Not bad, doppelganger. However, this is as far as you go!"
Urdia smiled when he saw that his doppelganger was still alive. He then unsheathed his flaming greatsword and appeared before Shifeng's doppelganger. He then executed Eight Extreme Slashes once more.
This time, the eight sword lights didn't scatter to deal with the doppelganger. Instead, they focused on the doppelganger. The power of the eight sword lights was far greater than Storm Twist's.
"Dragon Soul!"
He understood very well that if his doppelganger was killed, everything would be over. Immediately, he used the Abyssal Blade's strongest Additional Skill, Dragon Soul, increasing his Attributes as much as he could. He was simply trying to make a last ditch effort.
In the next moment, Urdia's doppelganger released a Dragon's roar that echoed throughout the forest. The doppelganger then transformed into a ten-meter-tall, pitch-black Dragon. It was more than twice as large as when it had been around five meters.
The doppelganger blocked the eight sword lights with a single claw.
Boom!
