Chapter 1018 ā Fleeting Strike
āBig Sis Frost, are you sure you arenāt mistaken?ā Hidden Soul asked in disbelief.
Everyone in the Greater G.o.dās Domain knew about the Six Great Divine Sets. They were regarded as equipment that could let Tier 6 players fight Primordial G.o.ds of the same level.
Hidden Soul had seen the effects of the Flame G.o.d Set, the Fourth Great Divine Set. Even though s.h.i.+ Feng could only unleash half of the Flame G.o.d Setās potential, it was enough to let him match the average Divine Set user. She dared not imagine how powerful one of the Six Great Divine Sets would be if its user could unleash 100% of its potential.
Yet, according to Red Frost, the bandaged young man from Demonās Gate was equipped with the Blood Drinker Set, the Second Great Divine Set. If the young man could fully utilize the Blood Drinker Setās potential, even all five of Zero Wingās Mortal G.o.ds attacking him together wouldnāt necessarily guarantee their victory.
āIām certain. The crimson shade hidden under those bandages resembles the Grand Libraryās records perfectly,ā Red Frost sighed, shaking her head.
āNo wonder Demonās Gate dares to make such a bold challenge,ā Fervent Samsara said as he regrouped with Hidden Soul and Red Frost outside the ring. Then, he continued in confusion, āBut didnāt the Blood Drinker Set go missing centuries ago? How did it end up in Demonās Gateās hands?ā
The Nebula Consortium was largely the reason Demonās Gate could run rampant in the Greater G.o.dās Domain all this time. Although Empyreal Wraith with his Extreme Evil Set was powerful, he wouldnāt have been enough to deter the various apex powers from persecuting Demonās Gate. Many pseudo-apex powers even dared to openly oppose Demonās Gate.
However, had it been known that Demonās Gate possessed the Second Great Divine Set, even the Seven Luminaries Alliance would have feared it, let alone a bunch of pseudo-apex powers.
āWhat should we do now?ā Hidden Soul asked anxiously. āJudging by that personās movements, he reached the sixth-floor standard long agoāand heās Level 243. With him equipped with the Blood Drinker Set, even the Holy Race and the Crystallian race would only have a few players capable of dealing with him. As for the human raceā¦ā
While Hidden Soul and the others were feeling helpless against the bandaged young man, a deep and familiar voice suddenly echoed across the top-floor arena.
āSince you insist, I will be your opponent.ā
At these words, everyone in the arena turned to where the voice came from and saw a cloaked Swordsman walking toward the ring from the entrance.
āBlack Flame! Heās Black Flame!ā
āHeās still alive? Didnāt he get hunted and killed by the Holy Raceās and the Crystallian raceās royal powers in the Demon G.o.d Forest?ā
āHe mustāve survived their pursuit. But why would he expose himself here? Is he not afraid those royal powers might come after him again?ā
Many of the various powersā experts were surprised to see s.h.i.+ Feng.
s.h.i.+ Fengās fame had skyrocketed since the battle in the Demon G.o.d Forest. Not only did he steal the Undying Motherās loot from several royal powers, but he had even repulsed multiple Divine Set users before escaping.
After this battle, s.h.i.+ Feng soared to second place on the Divine Glory List. Although he had quickly fallen to 11th place due to the many geniuses produced by the war among the three races, it was still a rank that most chosen ones could only dream of achieving.
āYouāve finally shown yourself. I thought you would remain in hiding for fear of getting targeted by the several anomalies that recently appeared among the Holy Race and Crystallian race,ā Lunar River from Kingās Paradise said, her lips curving into a smile as she watched s.h.i.+ Feng walking into the ring. She was seated in the VIP stand, drawn here by the confrontation between Zero Wing and Demonās Gate. Her temperament and equipment standard had drastically changed compared to when she partic.i.p.ated in Everlasting Cityās compet.i.tion. She now gave off the feeling of an unsheathed sword, intimidating those around her. āThis young man from Demonās Gate is far from ordinary. Can you last more than a few moves against him?ā
āVice Guild Leader, is that young man from Demonās Gate really that strong?ā asked Shuoyun, who was also wearing a Black Cloak to hide her information. āGuild Leader Black Flame can rival sixth-floor experts in combat standards. He even repulsed multiple Divine Set users last time. Even if that young man is equipped with the Second Great Divine Set, I doubt Guild Leader Black Flame would lose in just a few moves, right?ā
āYou arenāt aware of the full situation, so itās normal for you to have such thoughts,ā Lunar River said. After glancing at the bandaged young man on the ring, she continued, āIf all that person has is the Second Great Divine Set, he naturally wouldnāt be able to defeat Black Flame in a few moves. However, that person isnāt some no-name expert.ā
āHeās not?ā At Lunar Riverās words, Shuoyun couldnāt help but look at the bandaged young man in confusion. āBut this person only debuted during the battle between Demonās Gate and the Thunder Empire. Before that, there was never any information about him in Demonās Gate.ā
āOf course, there isnāt any information on him in our Greater G.o.dās Domain,ā Lunar River said nonchalantly. āBut he is very famous in the Hundred Race Battlefield. He is the Hundred Race Ranking Listās 421st-ranked Soul Hunter. In the current Eternal Realm, only those anomalies from the Holy Race and the Crystallian race are superior to him in overall strength. As for everyone else, if we compare solely in combat standards, Ink Crystal might be able to match him.ā
Shuoyun gaped at Lunar Riverās evaluation, staring at the bandaged young man in disbelief.
Ink Crystal was known by all in the current Eternal Realm. She was publicly acknowledged as the Crystallian raceās number one chosen one. Although it had been a while since anyone last saw her, she had never fallen out of the Eternal Chosen One Ranking Listās top ten. She was not an existence brand-new sixth-floor experts could hope to match.
In addition to Lunar River and Shuoyun, many other spectators in the VIP stands focused on the bandaged young man.
āElder Martial, is it impossible for Guild Leader Black Flame to win?ā Verdant Rainbow asked the white-haired old man beside her in confusion.
āIf that young man didnāt have the Second Great Divine Set, Guild Leader Black Flame might have had a chance. But now? Impossible. You canāt even put them in the same league,ā Elder Martial said firmly, stroking his beard. āNebula is extremely invested this time. Be it Black Flame or Zero Wing, I suggest you advise them not to stick their heads out during this period.ā
Verdant Rainbow sighed helplessly at Elder Martialās words. Originally, after witnessing s.h.i.+ Fengās performance in the Demon G.o.d Forest, she thought Zero Wing could suppress Demonās Gate and trade blows with the Nebula Consortium. However, she was recently granted access to information she had never been privy to, which made her realize that their world had far more secrets than she had imagined.
Inside the ring, s.h.i.+ Feng stood facing the bandaged young man.
āElise told me some time ago she thinks you may eventually grow to match her. Although I disagree with that sentiment, I can give you a chance,ā the bandaged young man said, his crimson eyes sizing up s.h.i.+ Feng contemptuously. āI will let you make the first three moves, and I will receive them with only one hand. If you can damage me, you win!ā
However, before the bandaged young man could say anything else, s.h.i.+ Feng casually unsheathed the Shadow Incinerator and swung it at him.
G.o.ddess-ranked Mana Technique, Dark Moon!
Subsequently, what happened next took place in the blink of an eye.
For a mere instant, a black flash lit up the entire arena. When the flash of light disappeared, the bandaged young man had just finished raising his dagger and entering a defensive stance. Immediately afterward, his vision turned gray, and he collapsed lifelessly to the ground.
Before anyone could react, the winner of the duel was displayed above the ring.
