White River City's Teleportation Hall:
When Shi Feng arrived at a high-class bar on the third floor, Blackie and the others had been waiting for him for some time now. When they saw Shi Feng enter the bar, they stood up involuntarily. Yan Tianxing and Yi Luofei, in particular, stared at the Swordsman in surprise as they tasted the Five-colored Fruit Wine that cost 10 Gold per bottle.
"So, this is a Tier 3 class?"
Hei Zi had informed them about the Shifeng's Tier 3 Promotion Quest, so they hadn't found it strange. After all, the Shifeng had already reached Level 100. It wasn't unusual for him to reach Tier 3.
Meanwhile, the Shifeng had concealed himself very well with the Nightwalker's Cape. Although he didn't radiate any aura, the ambient Mana gathered toward the Shifeng's body.
Although God's Domain didn't have weapons and equipment that could attract Mana to players, these weapons and equipment only increased the Mana density around them.
Although the ambient Mana was converging on Shi Feng, Yan Tianxing and Yi Luofei, who were only a step away from reaching the Domain Realm, could clearly sense that the Mana around Shi Feng hadn't increased. Instead, the ambient Mana continued to gather around Shi Feng. It was as if Shi Feng had become a black hole, constantly devouring the ambient Mana.
Mana was the foundation of God's Domain.
A player's physical condition, mental state, and Skills and Spells' power were all inextricably linked to Mana.
As experts who stood at the peak of God's Domain, they had conducted plenty of research on the game, especially on the relationship between Mana and players' bodies.
In God's Domain, players absorbed Mana all the time. As their physical fitness improved, so would the amount of Mana they could absorb. Hence, the forbidden lands in God's Domain had very little or no Mana at all.
Now that the Shifeng had reached Tier 3, the amount of Mana he could absorb was simply frightening.
If their Mana absorption rate was like a small stream, then the Shifeng's was like a raging river …
"Guild Leader, everyone's here. We can set off at any time," Hei Zi said excitedly.
Thanks to the Northern Fortress, Zero Wing had grown significantly stronger. Not only had it obtained a lot of Ancient Gold, but its members had also grown significantly stronger. They had also explored quite a few ancient civilization ruins in the north and obtained plenty of treasures. Now, every member of Zero Wing's team had reached Level 97 and 98. Most of them wore Level 95 Dark-Gold Equipment, and some even had Epic Equipment.
However, compared to the improvement of their levels and equipment, the improvement of their strength was much faster. Among them, 26 had already reached the Truth Realm. Yan Tianxing and Yi Luofei, for example, had even reached the Ascension Realm. As a result, their combat power had improved significantly.
. Alluring Summer, Sword, Silent, Jian, Stubborn Bone, and Zhao Yueru had also reached the Flowing Realm, thanks to Legacies from Unyielding Soul.
The Shifeng couldn't help his surprise when he saw the team's progress.
He hadn't expected everyone to improve so quickly. Most likely, the team's main force experts were as strong as some superpowers' main force experts. If Fire Dance and the others had made some gains in the Tower of Four Gods, they might be able to contend with some superpowers' main forces.
"Alright, let's go."
The Shifeng nodded and joined the team. He then led the team to the teleportation array. First, they teleported to the border town closest to Cold Spring Forest in Starmoon Kingdom. They then activated the Seven Luminaries Ring's Teleportation Gate and teleported to the Cold Spring Forest.
As a Level 100 neutral map, Cold Spring Forest was a hub that connected to other Level 100-plus neutral maps. The team had to pass through over a dozen maps to reach the Cold Spring Forest. Before they obtained Flying Mounts, traveling to the Cold Spring Forest from the neighboring kingdoms had been inconvenient. However, for the Shifeng, traveling to the Cold Spring Forest was a piece of cake.
After teleporting several times, the team arrived before the Demon's Den, which led to the Cold Spring Forest.
Unlike other Level 100-plus neutral maps, the Demon's Den had a relatively comfortable environment and was home to a large number of ancient races. It was also protected by an ancient seal. If players wished to enter the Demon's Den, they'd have to kill the Guardian Boss and unlock the seal. Otherwise, even with a Flying Mount, players wouldn't be able to enter the Demon's Den.
"Guild Leader, there are people inside!" Minor Wind, who had long since reached the Refinement Realm and the Truth Realm, exclaimed when he saw the footprints on the ground. "There's a lot of them. There should be a 200-man team."
"Someone's already here?" Shi Feng could not help his surprise.
Although the Demon's Den wasn't as dangerous as Level 100-plus neutral maps, the monsters inside were Level 97-plus Lords and Great Lords. There were even plenty of Grand Lords. Surviving in the Demon's Den would be extremely difficult. In addition, the Demon's Den was dark and weakened players' five senses to a certain extent. Even a 100-man expert team wouldn't last more than ten minutes inside.
Even the current superpowers would have a hard time surviving in the Dungeon. There were simply too many monsters in the Dungeon, especially before the Dungeon had been explored. The monsters in the Dungeon were like ants in an ant's nest. Even a Level 95, Tier 2 peak expert would die if they entered the Dungeon.
"Guild Leader, are we going in?" Hei Zi asked.
They had to keep their operation a secret. If they were discovered, news of their operation would leak. Although this wouldn't be a major problem, it was inevitable that some powers would try to scheme against them.
"There's no need to worry. Let's go in as well," Shifeng said, shaking his head.
Even if someone found out that they had entered the Cold Spring Forest, they wouldn't be able to survive in the forest, much less affect their progress.
Following which, Ke Le, Ye Wumian, and Turtledove led the way, while the rest of the team followed behind.
The Demon's Den was dark. Even with Tier 2 players' Vision, they could only see up to 200 yards away. Moreover, with their five senses weakened, their combat power would be significantly affected. This was especially true in the narrow, maze-like cave. Dodging ranged attacks from other directions was very difficult.
Fortunately, Ling Yi and the others had undergone training in the Extraordinary Tower. They could deal with the Demon's monsters' sneak attacks and sneak attacks. With Ke Le leading the way, the team advanced quickly. They didn't have to fight the endless horde of Demonkin.
The Demon's Den had a total of two floors. After three hours, Shifeng and the others arrived on the second floor. This was also where the Guardian Boss, which had unsealed the map's seal, resided.
Unlike the first floor, the second floor was as spacious as an open-air canyon. There was no need to worry about the team being unable to spread out in formation. Moreover, the second floor was much brighter. However, the weakening of their five senses had also increased. Thirty minutes after Shifeng and the others entered the second floor, they heard an explosion and a blinding flash coming from the cave at the end of the tunnel.
Inside the cave, which resembled an underground town, a 200-man team cleared out the Demonkin Guards and Demonkin Guards charging at them. The team also approached a Primordial Giant standing in the town's center. Every one of these Primordial Giants was Level 96 or above, and they all had dark runes on their foreheads. Their bodies also radiated a faint, black glow. In one-on-one fights, these Primordial Giants were child's play. Only the Great Lord ranked Demonkin Guards could slow down these Primordial Giants.
Meanwhile, the Primordial Giant in the town's center was over a dozen meters tall. It had six arms, each of which wielded a pitch-black spear. It looked like an ancient God of Destruction.
[Demonkin Guard] (Dark Creature, High Lord) Level 98 HP 49,000,000/49,000,000
[Demonkin Guard] (Dark Creature, Great Lord) Level 99 HP 88,000,000/88,000,000
[Purgatory Giant] (Dark Giant, Mythic) Level 99 HP 460,000,000/460,000,000
"Guild Leader, by the looks of it, these people seem to be members of Shadowless Empire from the Shadow World." Hei Zi recognized these players immediately when she saw the team approach the Purgatory Giant with ease.
"Shadowless Empire?" Shifeng had found the man and woman leading the team familiar. Now that he heard Hei Zi's words, realization dawned on him. "No wonder those two are here as well."
Shadowless Empire had been a very famous superpower in the past. It had occupied the entire Shadow World even before the Otherworld had opened. In addition, the Shadow World's leveling resources were far better than God's Domain's, and the Shadow World's special Legacies had allowed Shadowless Empire to shine after entering God's Domain.
Two of Shadowless Empire's members had even forced the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion into a disadvantageous position during the war for neutral territory.
These two players were none other than the man and woman before him. They were the Shadow Assassin Vast Lock, and the Ranger Night Reader.
Not only were these two incredibly powerful players, but they were also very close to reaching the Domain Realm. Even Domain Realm experts would have to flee in the darkness. After reaching the Domain Realm, these two players had even become Demon Kings in the darkness. They had even forced the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion to suffer many losses. In fact, these two players had even claimed one of the Pavilion's territories.
While Ling Yi's group discovered Shadowless Empire's members, Shadowless Empire's members also discovered Shifeng's group.
"Commander, they seem to be Ling Yi's men. Should we get rid of them first?" A Level 96 Dark Berserker asked as he glanced at Ling Yi's group. He then made a throat-slitting gesture.
"I never thought that Ling Yi would make it all the way here. It's no wonder why everyone is saying that Starlink and the other superpowers are helpless against them," the Level 96 Dark Berserker said, chuckling. Night Reader, who had a graceful figure and dazzling red hair, wore Epic chainmail, and wielded an ancient, blood-red bow. Chuckling, she said, "Unfortunately, times have changed on the continent of God's Domain. Even if they come here, they will only be wasting their time."
Previously, the Shadow World had lacked weapons and equipment, but after entering God's Domain, the weapons and equipment they wore had undergone a qualitative transformation. Now, with their superior Legacies, levels, and combat standards, only superpowers with deep foundations could barely pose a threat to them. God's Domain's native powers were no more than chickens and dogs.
The bald youth leading the group nodded in agreement.
