"Everyone, get out of the way!" Fallen Wind shouted hurriedly when he saw the towering flames. "??" [
The Undead Guardian's Attributes were no laughing matter. When it used Flame Cross Slash, it had an AOE of at least 30 to 40 yards. Meanwhile, the Undead Guardian's AOE also covered over half of the team.
Even if he activated Protection Blessing, he would barely survive this attack. If any other class did not possess a Skill like Invulnerability or Damage Immunity, they wouldn't survive.
"It's over!"
At this moment, everyone felt the threat of death. Although they tried to dodge the Flame Cross Slash, the Undead Guardian was simply too fast. By the time they turned around, the towering pillar of fire had already swept towards them.
Just as the pillar of fire was about to devour everyone …
Suddenly, Shifeng's swords released a dazzling glow as he slashed at the pillar of fire.
Boom!
The gigantic pillar of fire abruptly stopped and crashed into the ground, scorching it black and leaving a two-meter-deep gash in the ground. However, the attack had not harmed anyone. Instead, a figure flew back like a cannonball, crashing into one of the temple's pillars before falling to the ground.
Everyone's jaws dropped.
This figure was none other than Shifeng.
Despite facing the Undead Guardian's frightening attack, Shifeng had only lost around 2,000 HP …
Previously, when the Undead Guardian clashed with Death Wind, the Guardian had lost over 5,000 HP. Now that he had used such a powerful Skill, how could he only deal so little damage?
Although many of the players present did not understand what had happened, Fallen Wind did.
When the Undead Guardian's attack had landed, Shifeng had accurately struck the back of the Guardian's sword, changing the attack's trajectory. Not only had he prevented over half of the team from dying, but he had also reduced the impact of the attack.
However, while this was easy to say, it was extremely difficult to actually execute. This was especially true for a monster like the Undead Guardian. Not only did it possess immense Strength, but its Attack Speed and reaction speed were also first-rate. Accurately striking a specific point was far more difficult than threading a needle.
If he made the slightest mistake, not only would he fail to save his teammates, but he might even lose his life.
Fallen Wind was confident that he could do the same thing, albeit barely. However, he definitely wouldn't be able to do it as easily as Shifeng had.
"So this is the Flowing Water Realm they were talking about?"
When Fallen Wind saw Shifeng's Strength Deflection technique, a glint of inspiration flashed across his eyes. Shifeng's attack had blown away the fog that had plagued his mind all this time.
Previously, when Shifeng had executed Sword's Orbit, Fallen Wind had only been able to tell that Shifeng's combat technique was very profound, but he couldn't understand it. Now, however, Shifeng had used a Flowing Water Realm technique to block Fallen Wind's attack. Fallen Wind finally understood why he had been stuck at the Refinement Realm all this time.
The Refinement Realm only allowed one to gain precise control over one's body, while the Flowing Water Realm allowed one to gain precise control over one's opponent.
In the past, Fallen Wind had focused too much of his attention on himself, so he hadn't been able to observe and understand his target thoroughly. Now that he saw Shifeng effortlessly swing his sword, he understood that there was no need for him to spend too much effort on himself. He should focus on his target.
Although it was only a slight change in his perspective, Fallen Wind's aura also began to change. He was now more reserved and relaxed than before. He was no longer in a battle-ready state.
However, Shi Feng was completely unaware that, due to his own slash, he had caused a massive change in God's Domain's history.
"Commander, be careful!" Autumn Goose hurriedly warned Fallen Wind when she saw him in a daze.
Currently, Fallen Wind still had an Undead Guardian before him. If he didn't deal with the Guardian properly, it was very likely that the Guardian would kill him.
Just as the Undead Guardian's greatsword transformed into a streak of silver light and descended on Fallen Wind, the Swordsman's crescent-shaped shield came to a halt.
Peng!
When Fallen Wind's greatsword struck the ground, it left a deep gash in the ground. On the other hand, Fallen Wind had only taken a single step back, a damage of over -2,000 points appearing above his head. With his over 20,000 HP, this was only one-tenth of the damage he had received. A single healer could easily heal him.
"Commander! You … Could it be … "Autumn Goose gaped in shock. She couldn't believe her eyes. Fallen Wind's defensive technique was practically the same as Shifeng's. Only, it wasn't as natural as Shifeng's.
Smiling bitterly, Fallen Wind said, "Sure enough, it's difficult. However, the Flowing Water Realm sure is powerful. It's no wonder why I couldn't defeat One Sword. With my current standards, this is as far as I can go. I'll have to let my body adapt to the new environment bit by bit."
Currently, he could barely predict the Undead Guardian's attack trajectories. Even so, he had a much easier time dealing with the Undead Guardian.
Fallen Wind's increase in strength allowed the nervous healers to relax slightly. They could now focus more of their attention on Death Wind. Meanwhile, everyone else focused on attacking the Undead Guardian before Shifeng.
Time passed quickly, and the Undead Guardian's HP continuously decreased.
70% … 60% … 50% …
No matter how hard the Undead Guardian struggled, Shifeng neutralized its attacks one after another.
Finally, after letting out a pained cry, the Undead Guardian, which had over 240,000 HP, transformed into a streak of crimson light and disappeared from the hall. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, after the Undead Guardian disappeared, Icarus's Heart, which Shifeng wore, absorbed a large amount of Life Force from the Undead Guardian.
Icarus's Life Force had increased from 0 to 1. The amount of Life Force he had absorbed was beyond imagination.
Although there aren't any items or EXP, this is a good place to accumulate Life Force. Shifeng was slightly surprised when he inspected the Life Force he had stored.
After Icarus's Heart had been upgraded to Epic rank, its description had not stated whether it could accumulate Life Force from players or monsters. It had only stated that it could store Life Force. In other words, it should be possible to obtain Life Force from both players and monsters. However, the chances of low-level players and weak monsters obtaining Life Force from the Heart should be very low. Only players of similar levels or stronger monsters would have a higher chance of obtaining Life Force.
Now that the Undead Guardian was providing so much Life Force, it would be a waste if he did not grind it properly.
Following which, Shifeng joined the battle, helping the members of the Wind God's Spear clear out the Undead Guardians. Before they knew it, two days had gone by before they had finally killed all of the Undead Guardians. They then arrived at the top of the shrine's stairs.
"We're finally here." Shifeng took a deep breath.
The Undead Guardians inside the Shrine respawned. Every once in a while, a new one would respawn. During this time, they had been fighting day and night, afraid that they wouldn't be able to keep up with the Undead Guardians' respawn time.
After two days, Shifeng finally stood at the top of the stairs. Meanwhile, before he knew it, his Life Force had filled up. Once he returned to Candlelight, even crafting the Magic Light Set Equipment would be a piece of cake.
Meanwhile, during this time, many changes had occurred in God's Domain. In particular, a shocking incident had occurred in the Starmoon Kingdom.
The first-rate Guild Ouroboros had officially disbanded, and all of its members had merged into a new Guild.
Meanwhile, this new Guild was none other than the Blackwater Guild. In addition, when Blackwater was established, four second-rate Guilds and over a dozen third-rate Guilds in the Starmoon Kingdom had merged with Blackwater. In addition, Blackwater had formed a strategic alliance with the Sky Burial Society and declared war on the Ling YI Society!
