Before Lightforged City's magnificent stone statue, the Shifeng approached the statue step by step.
With every step the Shifeng took, the mental pressure from the statue grew stronger. However, it was as if the Shifeng could not feel it at all.
Eighty yards …
Seventy yards …
Sixty yards …
After a short moment, Shiuse Qiangwei watched as the Shifeng reached Violet Cloud's side, standing 50 yards away from the statue. Although the Shifeng's complexion was slightly gloomy, indicating that he was feeling a lot more pressure than before, everyone understood that this was not the Shifeng's limit.
"Is he a monster? He actually caught up to Violet! " Yi Luofei was stunned as she watched the Shifeng continue to advance. "And he still hasn't reached his limit. Just how much has he improved during this time?"
Players who had yet to condense their mental strength might not know how large the gap was. However, they, who had continuously condensed their mental strength and resisted mental attacks, knew very well how difficult it was to achieve such a feat.
Although Shi Feng's ability to shatter the mental shockwave within an 85-yard radius had been impressive, the farther away the Stone Statue was, the less effective the mental shockwave's effects would be. The difference between an 85-yard radius and a 50-yard radius was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Previously, Yi Luofei had not even realized that the Shifeng could resist mental attacks within a 50-yard range.
Meanwhile, Violet Cloud's talent was obvious to all. It was no exaggeration to say that Violet Cloud's mental fortitude was challenging her.
Previously, she had not found it strange that the Shifeng's mental strength had been inferior to Violet Cloud's. After all, not only was Violet Cloud extremely talented, but she was also a magical class. She was naturally better at condensing her mental strength than melee classes. This point could be seen from the training she had undergone during this time. Magical classes were far superior to physical classes.
Hence, it was normal for the Shifeng to lose to Violet Cloud.
Yet, now, the Shifeng had actually surpassed Violet Cloud. This was truly shocking.
Previously, the Shifeng had not tried to condense their mental strength within a 100-yard range of the statue. Hence, it would be much more difficult for the Shifeng to condense their mental strength. They had already tested this point during their break.
Yet, even under such circumstances, the Shifeng had still surpassed Violet Cloud. Yi Luofei was speechless about this talent …
While Yi Luofei was in a daze, the Shifeng had arrived within 30 yards of the statue.
Facing yet another mental attack from the statue, the Shifeng's footsteps abruptly came to a halt. His complexion paled as he took a step back.
"Sure enough," Shiuse Shiuse's mental strength by the statue, Shiuse's mental strength by the statue. The mental strength's within 30 yards is several times its 50-yard range. It's no wonder why so few players in the past.... Just resisting the mental assault had consumed one-fifteenth of his Concentration. This was no longer within the limits of what he could endure. Immediately, Shi Feng lamented regretfully.
In Shi Feng's previous life, a 30-yard radius was known as a forbidden area!
It was rumored that anyone who reached this level would experience a qualitative change in their mental condensation.
Although the mental strength of a player could not substantially increase their combat power, it could improve their perception of Mana to an inhuman level. It could also help players form their own Mana Domain at Tier 4. It was even rumored that the mental strength of a player could help them get promoted to Tier 5.
Meanwhile, Shiuse Qiangwei and the others breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the Shifeng's failure.
If the Shifeng had still managed to get close to the statue, they would've doubted their own talent.
"Although 30 yards isn't enough, 35 yards isn't bad. At this rate, I should be able to raise my mental strength to Tier 4 in less than two days."
Shifeng did not feel particularly disappointed when he saw that he was only one step away from reaching the Forbidden Domain. He then turned around and sat back down 35 yards away from the statue.
At the end of the day, Divine Change was still incomplete. It was only a half-finished product.
Originally, he had thought that he would be fortunate if he could reach 50 yards. After all, he could only use 15% of his muscles at the same time. There were still many places where he couldn't concentrate his strength.
He was already very satisfied with his current achievements.
As for the Divine Will's Forbidden Domain, so long as he could perfect Divine Change, he would have no problems reaching it in the future.
Following which, Shifeng calmly absorbed the Divine Will radiating from the statue, continuously improving his Concentration.
However, as Shi Feng and the others continued to absorb the Divine Will in front of the stone statues, increasing their Concentration limits, the number of players resurrected in Lightforged City also increased.
Many of Violet Sword's and Azure's members, who had entered Lightforged City, were confused when they saw Shi Feng's group sitting before the stone statues. Even Crimson Star and the other apex experts were confused.
"I really don't know what Ling Yi's people are thinking. They're actually wasting time in front of that statue at a time like this. Don't they know that the peace outside has already been shattered and that God's Domain has undergone a major change?" Crimson Star was astonished when she read the report her subordinates sent her regarding Shifeng and the others.
Currently, both Violet Sword and Azure's members were doing everything they could to improve their combat power. They were thinking of ways to improve themselves in Lightforged City.
However, it had already been two days since they entered Lightforged City, yet Shifeng and the others had been sitting before the statue all this time. She had no idea what they were doing. Whenever they exhausted their Concentration, they would eat and rest in one of Lightforged City's restaurants. For the rest of their time, they would meditate before the statue. Rather than improving their team's combat power, they looked more like they were here to have fun.
"Perhaps Ling Yi has her own plans. After all, Ling Yi's peak experts are no match for an ordinary superpower," Wildfighter said. "Moreover, I've heard that Azure is planning to form an alliance with Ling Yi. This will make Ling Yi's path much easier."
"Alliance? So what if the Azure Chamber of Commerce forms an alliance with Ling Yi? Let alone Azure, even some Super Guilds won't have the time to help Ling Yi, "Crimson Star said disdainfully. "As for current peak experts, I'm afraid they won't be as effective on the battlefield as they were in the past. After all, the current era is truly different. The various powers have already developed plenty of war weapons, and the effectiveness of Tier 3 players has decreased. Only by relying on numbers can a war be won."
Now that the NPC soldiers were no longer protecting Guild Towns, the various large Guilds' towns and cities would no longer have their greatest protection. Players would no longer have to worry about the NPC soldiers' combat power. They could fight as they pleased in Guild Towns and Cities. This was especially true for powerful experts and powers that had already developed but did not have a territory to protect.
The future of the Empire could only be described with one word.
Chaos!
Moreover, it would be unprecedented chaos. Even the various superpowers wouldn't be spared from this calamity.
In fact, many powers had already begun to take action. More than 200 Guild Towns and Cities were already known to have been replaced. The only reason the various superpowers were still unaffected was due to the large number of Tier 3 experts and peak experts they had stationed in their respective Guild Towns and Cities. However, Zero Wing was far inferior in this regard.
"That's not for us to worry about. Instructor Torre just sent us a message saying that the hidden superpowers will be making a big move soon. Hence, the Guild wants us to lead our trump card legions to the two Guild Cities closest to Level 100 maps as soon as we're done with our training," Wildfighter said.
"I understand. I'll lead a team over as soon as the training session ends," Crimson Star said, nodding.
However, while Crimson Star's group was chatting, Shi Feng, who sat quietly before a massive statue, suddenly opened his eyes. An invisible ripple then radiated from his body, weakening the mental pressure Crimson Star's group felt by a significant margin.
"Success!"
