The Abyssal Blade Shi Feng wielded looked like a gemstone of darkness. Adorned with glowing, crimson patterns, the sword gave off a bewitching feeling.
The instant Shi Feng unsheathed the Abyssal Blade, a doppelganger appeared beside him. In terms of aura and appearance, the doppelganger was utterly identical to him.
âHis trump card is a doppelganger?â
âAnd here I thought he had something amazing saved up. Heâs not thinking that he can defeat Vice Commander Thunder just by relying on a doppelganger, which would have weaker Basic Attributes than himself, right?â
Upon seeing Shi Fengâs doppelganger, Demonâs Heartâs members burst into laughter.
In Godâs Domain, Doppelganger Skills were indeed excellent lifesaving measures. They were also extremely rare Skills that could drastically increase the combat power of players. However, Doppelganger Skills were generally useful only against monsters and ordinary experts, gainst experts of Rebellious Thunderâs caliber, using doppelgangers was utterly meaningless.
Not to mention, Rebellious Thunder had Cruel Darkness to further amplify his strength. The Magic Weapon grew through absorbing the Power of Darkness its user radiated. In return, the weapon not only provided its user with a significant boost in strength but also extended its userâs attack range drastically. When Rebellious Thunder wielded it, he could achieve an attack range of roughly 20 yards, which basically transformed him into a ranged player.
With such an attack range combined with Rebellious Thunderâs Strength and techniques, it wouldnât matter if he went up against one or even five melee players. There wouldnât be much difference, as he wouldnât give his opponents an opportunity to get close to him.
Meanwhile, if a melee player couldnât approach Rebellious Thunder, they naturally couldnât attack him, either. This was the reason why Rebellious Thunder was able to fight three of Battle Wolvesâ Domain Realm experts simultaneously without being put at a disadvantage.
Since Shi Feng had summoned only one doppelganger, this increase in numbers wouldnât affect Rebellious Thunderâs performance in battle at all.
âAlthough I donât know what youâre trying to pull here, you should just use whatever cards you have,â Rebellious Thunder advised. Even after seeing Shi Feng summoning a doppelganger, he did not hurry to attack Shi Feng. Instead, he simply casually observed the Swordsman before him. âIâll teach you how foolish it is for you to make an enemy out of Demonâs Heart!â
After Rebellious Thunder said this, the Power of Darkness that his body radiated intensified once more. This time, it even produced a faint layer of dark fog around his body.
At the same time, the Magic Weapon he wielded seemingly received an upgrade. Now, pale-blue flames flickered around Cruel Darknessâs blade. However, these flames did not increase the ambient temperature but decrease it. The temperature fell so low that the nearby plants even started freezing.
âHe can still grow stronger?â
âAmazing! This is truly amazing! Itâs no wonder even the top three adventurer teams do not dare defy Demonâs Heart! Just Rebellious Thunder alone is more than enough to make the top three adventurer teams suffer!â
Upon seeing Rebellious Thunderâs strength improving further, the Demon players spectating from the city walls gained newfound recognition of Demonâs Heart. Many experts even started entertaining thoughts of joining the Guild.
Originally, they had become Dark Players to avoid the restrictions of Guilds. However, the strength Rebellious Thunder displayed was simply too amazing. Now, they felt that they wouldnât mind losing some of their freedom if it meant that they could become as strong as Rebellious Thunder.
At this moment, let alone the Demon players spectating from the city walls, even Regretful Wind and the others, who were watching inside one of the cityâs bars, were floored by Rebellious Thunderâs sudden power-up.
âHe still wasnât at his peak state before?â As Regretful Wind goggled at Rebellious Thunderâs fog-shrouded body, he had trouble keeping his mouth closed.
Compared to ordinary Demon players, Regretful Wind, who had already reached the Demon Viscount rank, had a much clearer idea just how frightening the Power of Darkness Rebellious Thunder radiated was. It was no exaggeration to say that, even if he raised the density of his own Power of Darkness by three or four times, he would still fall short of Rebellious Thunderâs standard.
Since the origin of Demon player^ strength was the Power of Darkness, having denser Power of Darkness would improve not only oneâs Concentration recovery but also the power of their Skills and Spells by a large margin. The Power of Darkness affected players similar to how Mana didâbut with much more prominent effects.
âTo think that a Demon Count can grow that strong. Black Flame really is doomed this time. Iâm afraid he wonât last more than a few moves against Rebellious Thunder,â Flame Feather muttered in shock.
She was clearly a 3-star Viscount, only one step away from becoming a Count. However, it never occurred to her that there would be such a huge gap in strength between a 3-star Viscount and an actual Count. At this moment, let alone within Demon Cityâs sphere of influence, even outside of Demon territories, Rebellious Thunder could still operate without fear.
Meanwhile, outside Demon City, when Blue Frost and the other Zero Wing members from Shelter One, who had followed Shi Feng to Demon City, saw Rebellious Thunderâs transformation, grim expressions appeared on their faces.
âBlue, how about advising the Guild Leader to stop? Weâve already gone this far. I believe the Dark Denâs various powers will understand how strong Shelter One is. However, if we proceed with this fight, our losses will be massive,â Evening Lotus said as she looked at Blue Frost.
After seeing how easily their team reached Demon City, she had indeed gained newfound recognition of their Guild. She never thought that Zero Wing would be this strong.
However, their current opponent was no longer an existence they could deal with. Even though they had over 300 Tier 3 experts on their side, she wasnât optimistic about their chances of defeating Rebellious Thunder. After all, they were standing in the home ground of Demon players. Moreover, Rebellious Thunder had the protection of Demon City.
âIndeed. At this rate, rather than making a statement, weâll end up becoming a laughing stock in the Dark Den instead,â Blue Frost said, nodding. He, too, felt that they had done enough.
Blue Frost immediately headed for Shi Feng to persuade him to end this battle of attrition.
However, he had just taken two steps forward when Shi Feng suddenly raised the Abyssal Blade horizontal of himself and started incanting.
The deafening roar of a Dragon entered everyoneâs ears and shook the entire Demon City. This Dragon roar made everyone present shudder involuntarily, and they reflexively turned to look at the origin of this roar.
To everyoneâs surprise, this roar actually came from the doppelganger Shi Feng summoned. At this moment, however, the doppelganger had started disintegrating into a cloud of black fog, which continuously expanded, growing by several hundred times in size in no time at all. A short moment later, a pair of gigantic, golden eyes appeared inside the black fog, the piercing gaze of the golden eyes sending shivers down everyoneâs spine.
âWhatâs going on?â
âThe doppelganger can actually transform?â
âThe doppelgangerâs aura is so strong!â
The spectating players promptly started discussing among themselves when they saw the transformation Shi Fengâs doppelganger underwent, curiosity and confusion filling their minds.
âIt seems you werenât spouting nonsense before,â Rebellious Thunder said. As he gazed at the dense cloud of fog before him, fighting spirit welled up within him.
However, no sooner had Rebellious Thunder finished speaking than a gigantic claw emerged from the cloud of fog. This claw was the size of a two-story house and densely covered in pitch-black scales. When the claw landed, it instantly shattered the ground. At the same time, everyone in the vicinity also felt the ground beneath them quaking.
Before everyone could snap out of their daze, a thirty-meter-tall Black Dragon appeared before their eyes.

âA Dragon?!â
Everyoneâs breath momentarily stifled as they gazed at the incarnation of death and destruction before them, unable to wrap their head around this situation.
