Chapter 499 â Black Flame Takes Action
Crystal City of Secrets, Underground Crystal Palaceâs entrance:
A moment after Undying Shadow finished speaking, the eldest of the Demon Cave Trio suddenly vanished from everyoneâs sight. Then, before the noisy crowd could react, he had already appeared in front of Shi Feng and reached for Shi Fengâs shoulder with one of his shriveled palms.
Not good!
When Ink Qilin saw Undying Shadowâs action, she frowned and hurriedly charged forward to intervene.
!!
Similar to the rest of the Greater Godâs Domain, the Eternal Realmâs NPC Towns and Cities prohibited players from attacking others. Should players go against this rule, nearby NPC guards would not hesitate to apprehend or kill them.
However, it was a different story if an action taken was limited to only simple physical contact. In that case, the action would not be considered an attack, and the NPC guards would not pay any heed to it.
But even if players did not receive any quantifiable damage in Godâs Domain, it was still possible for them to experience a certain degree of pain and suppression if they were subjected to a sufficiently great physical force.
Meanwhile, although Undying Shadow was an Assassin, he was in possession of the Crimson Shadow Warrior class, a hidden class that granted players a Berserkerâs Strength and an Assassinâs speed.
Not to mention, Undying Shadow was Level 151. He also possessed the Desolate Shadow Set and the Dragonâs Chord Set, of which the former was a well-known Fragmented Legendary Equipment Set in the Greater Godâs Domain, while the latter was a Magic Weapon Set that was close to rivaling Legendary Weapons. Even though Ink Qilin was in possession of a Legendary Weapon, she dared not say she could beat Undying Shadow when it came to the Strength Attribute.
So, how was a Level 145 Sword Saint supposed to match Undying Shadow?
Unfortunately, before Ink Qilin could get within ten yards of Undying Shadow, the latter had already placed his palm on Shi Fengâs shoulder. Gentle Snow grew anxious when she saw this, but there was nothing she could do about it.
Undying Shadowâs hand might not look like it was of any threat, but the downward force it exerted could be felt by even players standing over a hundred yards away. In fact, the force exerted was so great that faint cracks had even appeared in the surrounding space.
This Guild Leader of Zero Wing is too impulsiveâŚÂ River Lightâs complexion turned unpleasant when he saw Undying Shadowâs hand clutching Shi Fengâs shoulder.
Originally, this matter could have been resolved by simply apologizing. However, thanks to Shi Fengâs provocation, this matter was unlikely to be salvageable even if Scarecrow Foxâs Great Commander showed up.
âWhat will I do about it?â Undying Shadow snorted as he looked at Shi Feng. Then, he applied even more force with his hand as he said, âBrat! Iâll have you kneel for me!â
As soon as Undying Shadow increased the force he used, the sound of bones creaking and space shattering could be heard. At the same time, many of the surrounding players experienced suffocating pressure. Some of the nearby Tier 5 experts even got the urge to kneel.
âMental intimidation! His Concentration is at Tier 6!â
âDivine Might! Heâs already reached the realm of Divine Might?!â
Many of the experts present couldnât help but gasp when they experienced the oppressive feeling that constantly assaulted them.
Divine Might?
Ink Qilin also fell into a daze when he saw Undying Shadow had seemingly become the ruler of the space around him.
Divine Might!
Normally, this was a form of power that only Tier 6 existences could master. Meanwhile, once a player mastered Divine Might, all existences beneath Tier 6 would be no different than ants to them.
This was because one could greatly suppress those beneath Tier 6 by relying only on oneâs Divine Might, greatly restricting the target playerâs mobility and thought process. After all, if a player had to defend themselves from mental attacks constantly, there was no way they could fight at their full capacity.
While it was logically possible for players of a lower tier to master Divine Might, even Tier 5 players would have an extremely difficult time doing so as players needed to reach Tier 6 in their Concentration standard. This was also the biggest hurdle that prevented many experts from advancing to Tier 6.
In Godâs Domain, apart from raising tiers, the only reliable way players could improve their Concentration was by honing their mental willpower. However, this was a very gradual process, and as Concentration was a Hidden Attribute that couldnât be inspected like the several Basic Attributes, players wouldnât know if their training method was effective until they made noticeable progress or no progress at all after a long time.
This was also why many experts were still stuck at Tier 5, unable to progress to Tier 6 despite having incredibly high combat standards.
And even if a Tier 6 player restarted a new account and climbed back up to Tier 5, it would still take them a long time to develop their Concentration to the Tier 6 standard. Hence, Undying Shadowâs possession of Tier 6 Concentration surprised everyone.
Meanwhile, when Ink Qilin thought about how Shi Feng was being subjected to the dual pressure of Undying Shadowâs Strength and Concentration, she could already picture the sight of Shi Feng kneeling in front of everyone.
One secondâŚ
Two secondsâŚ
Three secondsâŚ
However, as the seconds went by, the plaza quickly grew eerily quiet as everyone looked at Shi Feng in confusion.
Contrary to Ink Qilinâs and everyone elseâs expectations, Shi Feng did not kneel. Instead, he remained standing steadily as he quietly gazed upon Undying Shadow.
âYouâŚâ Undying Shadow was similarly surprised to see Shi Feng standing steadily before him. ââŚare fine?â
Ink Qilin also gaped in shock at this scene, her mind failing to comprehend what was going on.
Undying Shadowâs Strength was apparent to everyone present. If he could crack the Eternal Realmâs stable space with his hand alone, it meant his Strength was already nearing the Tier 6 standard. Not to mention, there was also the Divine Might he had abruptly unleashed. If caught unprepared, Ink Qilin doubted even she could react and adjust her body accordingly in time.
But what was up with Shi Fengâs reaction?
Shi Feng didnât even flinch in response to Undying Shadowâs oppression, let alone adjust his body to defend against it. Whether it was Undying Shadowâs physical oppression or mental intimidation, Shi Feng behaved as if neither existed.
âCould it be that Undying Shadow was only joking around and never intended to do anything to him?â
âDo you have eyes?! Canât you see how surprised Undying Shadow looks?!â
âCould there be some restriction placed on the Underground Crystal Palaceâs entrance that prevents players from experiencing overly powerful Strength and Concentration? Is that why that guyâs behaving as if nothing happened? Otherwise, who could possibly withstand that kind of Strength and Divine Might?â
When the spectating crowd saw Shi Feng looking unaffected by Undying Shadowâs offensive, many players speculated that this might be because of the Underground Crystal Palaceâs uniqueness. Hence, Shi Feng was able to avoid making a fool of himself in front of everyone.
However, just as everyone was starting to believe this to be soâŚ
âSince youâre done playing your hand, itâs my turn now,â Shi Feng said as he looked at the confused old man before him. Then, he gently pressed his hand on Undying Shadowâs shoulder and said, âKneel!â
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud explosion, coupled with the sound of the ground cracking, echoed throughout the entire plaza.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd in the plaza, Undying Shadow knelt on the ground, one of his hands desperately holding onto Shi Fengâs arm while the other supported him on the ground. A pained expression had also appeared on Undying Shadowâs face.
However, even though Undying Shadow was desperately resisting to the point where the veins on his forehead had bulged, and his face had turned bright red, he still could not resist Shi Fengâs seemingly gentle touch as he ultimately fell flat to the groundâŚ
