(I said I will release an upload schedule around this time but it seems I can't for now. With school starting again my schedule has become even more busy. There's a chance I might not be able to bring chapters for a long while. I will try to keep updating chapters until the end of this arc. Thank you all for reading this fanfic and I hope you look forward for what's to come.)
After the aura of water was upgraded to tier 3 it automatically recovers 50% of Shi Feng's total HP and heals him of 25% of HP every second. In no time his HP was almost filled.
In the meantime Shi Feng felt like he was in a dream. "So this is the true domain realm. No wonder you guys were able to overwhelm me just then." Shi Feng had no idea there was such a massive gap between him and true monsters.
His senses have become ridiculously sharp, now he can predict his opponents movements just by sensing their muscles twitches, subtle breathing, and even their heartbeats. It sounds crazy but Shi Feng felt that he could even predict the movements of others just by reading their blood flow if he tried hard enough.
Only experts like Sword Demon or Evil Qilin who had entered the later stages of the domain realm can control their bodies well enough to trick Shi Feng's senses.
But that's not even the best part, he finally developed this eighth sense that Carbon Cat talked about. He realized why the man said it's indescribable and only true domain realm experts know how it feels.
It's almost as if his intuition and instinct has given him omniscience. With just a glance at someone he can predict their movements and habits, and with that knowledge he can use his eighth sense to create dozens of simulated fights in his mind in an instant. Those simulated fights give him the experience he needs to fight his opponents. His body will already know the feeling of fighting that person and move on instinct.
That was why Vendor Wind and the others were able to evade his sword orbit and other techniques as if they've seen it a million times already. Based on their simulated fights with him, they had probably been helpless against sword orbit until they got accustomed to it.
Shi Feng looked at his opponents again and saw that they weren't moving. This was natural, when true domain realm experts fight each other they take time to review the simulated fights in their minds but this process doesn't even take 0.1 seconds to do.
Shi Feng had no time for this, there is less than 20 seconds on Blade Saint Power. He can't rely on Blade World due to the ancient master array, Element Requiem is also on cooldown, Disintegration field would do more harm than good and he can't activate Nirvana cause he hasn't lost enough concentration yet.
"If your not coming, I'll just come to you then!" Shi Feng turned into a lightning bolt as he made a hard dash for his opponents.
"Your arrogance will be your downfall Black Flame! You are still nothing before us! Vast, don't hold back anymore!" Vendor Wind yelled at Shi Feng.
Vast Kill suddenly gripped his sword tight and took a deep breath. Next a silver ripple exploded from his body as he opened his eyes, this stunned Shi Feng. "Tier 5 concentration?! Does he have an special talent?"
Special talents are natural born abilities and gifts that are near impossible to replicate. Shi Feng had fought plenty of people with special talents. Soaring Snake and his inhuman reaction speed was one such talent. Because of his neural rate he can fight people in a higher combat realm then him. Tengu is also another example, his brain is wired differently than others giving him the ability to predict even a domain realm expert's movements.
It seems like Vast Kill can actually gather his focus to such a degree that it allows his concentration to reach the next tier.
Vast Kill saw Shi Feng as a true opponent now so he didn't feel the need to hide his trump card, he then swung his sword. Ten sword lights followed the swing and collided.
Silver combat technique- Heavy Slice
The technique held a ridiculous amount of power as it made its way to Shi Feng. To Shi Feng this attack lacked finesse. Shi Feng brandished Crown Sword as raging flames exploded from it.
Mana Technique- Holy Devour
Both the flaming sword and sword lights clashed causing an explosion and throwing dust in the air. Vast Kill was sent flying like a cannonball. Normally he would've evaded Shi Feng's strike but now he couldn't. Just as the dust was settled Shi Feng sensed the threat of death.
Tier 4 taboo skill- Silent Murder
Tier 4 curse- endless swamp
Hundreds of dark blades tore apart space as they randomly disappeared and reappeared heading for Shi Feng. A green swamp also appeared under his feet sucking him in.
"Not even trying to be subtle anymore." Shi Feng didn't really care for these attacks. He doesn't have to worry about his opponents reading his intent any more and can finally utilize all his abilities to their limit.
Instant Flash
Like a flash of light Shi Feng disappeared and reappeared, and this time it wasn't next to Vast Kill like they assumed who was still dealing with the backlash of the clash he had, no he ended up in front of Indigo.
Shi Feng had wanted to get rid of indigo from the very beginning. It was mainly because of her that he couldn't use his full strength and skills like Blade Domain. Her hidden class Magic Witch was considered to be in the top 10 peak classes in God's Domain in his past life. Of course not considering the sixteen Great peak classes and the ten Saint classes.
Indigo wanted to defend herself but Shi Feng's attack was just too fast. She couldn't even see his hands move before dozens of star lights devoured her. She died in an instant.
Even before McClain and Razor were about to help, Shi Feng sent his lightning swords at them. Both true monsters had a helpless look on their face, because they already saw their deaths. The swords of lightning were just too fast, they didn't even take one step until multiple swords went right through their heads.
Both McClain and Razor turned into lifeless puppets as they fell to the ground.
Vendor Wind's frustration grew, he had thought Black Flames goal was Vast so he prepared to go help him, leaving Indigo wide open. If he had done a better job protecting her and just sacrificed Vast Kill, McClain and Razor would still be alive.
This is why it's so hard to deal with true domain realm experts, they don't have to think as their bodies and minds are ready for any situation. So fights between such experts were rarely one sided. Shi Feng had already fought this battle a dozen times in his head and whether Vendor Wind decided to protect Indigo or Vast didn't matter.
Shi Feng walked up to Vendor Wind, "Vice Guild Leader Vendor, looks like you're the only one left," he said 2
Vendor Wind gave the swordsman a confused look "What do you mean there is still Vas-," he then realized the Shi Feng infront of him was a fake and simulated over a dozen scenarios in his head. In all of them Vast Kill dies with little resistance.
Vendor threw his spear at Vast Kill who just recovered. As the deadly spear hurled through the air causing spatial tears a figure reappeared from the void. It was Shi Feng. "What fast reactions."
He had used Divine Steps and had his doppelgangers use void steps. In the midst of the chaos not even Vendor Wind should have noticed his maneuver. He brandished his swords at the upcoming spear.
Sword Transmigration +
Shi Feng directed the spear at Vast Kill. In response Vast Kill swiped his sword throwing the spear off course. He then sent an attack at Shi Feng but his attack went right through his body as if he hit air.
Suddenly another Shi Feng appeared behind Vast Kill and swung Crown Sword.
Imperial Slash
The attack was just too fast for Vast Kill to react to even though he saw it coming. The man was split in half and died. Shi Feng swapped places with the doppelganger in front of Vendor Wind.
"See. You're the last one left. Unfortunately," Shi Feng glanced at him. "I saved the worst for last," he said with an indifferent look.
The spear flew back to Vendor Wind as he angrily yelled at Shi Feng, "do you think you're cute Black Flame!"
"Cuter than you at least. Now die!" Shi Feng then rushed towards Vendor Wind 1
Shadow Blade
Shi Feng had upgraded Shadow Blade to tier 3 and the Broken Steel armor upgraded all his legacy skills by one tier up to his current tier. At tier 4 Shadow Blade unleashes 20 swords with 300% of his strength and deals a stunned and mana drain effect.
As the 20 sword lights came at him, Vendor Wind used a skill in conjunction with a combat technique to block it. Even before Shi Feng reached the true domain realm Vendor Wind wasn't a match for him in a one on one fight. Now he is completely helpless and can only buy himself time until his eventual demise.
"So what if you kill me Black Flame! Your guild is heavily outnumbered and you can't counter this array much longer. Your guild members will soon be eradicated and your city will go down with you!"
Vendor Wind had clearly lost all hope of defeating Shi Feng, he then ordered in the war chat, "everyone focus on destroying the city!"
"I thought you wanted a replacement for that town I destroyed. Why the change of heart," Shi Feng joked.
"You can pretend to keep your cool but you will soon fall into despair Guild Leader Black Flame! Hahahaha!" Vendor Wind laughed maniacally as the last shadow blade cut through his neck draining the last of his HP.
With Vendor Wind dead, Shi Feng checked the current situation. The members of the super guild alliance were disregarding everything just to assault the city. The members of Zero Wing and Netherworld Empire just weren't able to kill these players fast enough. The demon was being held up by over 100 tier 4 players.
Shi Feng wanted to summon his personal guards but unfortunately he couldn't with the array in his way. He was able to summon the demon because the Bible of darkness was very close to becoming legendary rank and regaining its true power.
Only something like system restrictions, grandmaster arrays and stronger can keep him from summoning demons now.
Shi Feng decided to turn into the black dragon king, the mana was very lacking in this map so his life rating wont receive a huge boost. With the effect of ring of brilliance his dragon form should be close to rivaling a divine or great dragon.
Just as he was about to transform he noticed cracks in the array. Suddenly the entire array shattered and the suppression on all of Zero Wing and Netherworld Empire was gone.
Shi Feng saw a few familiar figures in the sky on top of mounts. They were Crimson Witch and Wildfighter as well as a few other people from Violet Sword.
Wildfighter who was riding a 70 meter tall winged lion ordered, "the array is down! Activate the protective orbs and long distance ray canons!"
In the next instant dozens beams of light shot down from the sky, wiping out the players making their way for Rising Wing City while blue shield barriers protected Zero Wing and Netherworld Empire members.
"Ray canons!" Shi Feng was stunned. While the appearance of Violet Sword had shocked him, the fact that they had used ray canons left him bewildered.
Ray canons were a top tier upper rank war weapon. Only famed level lifestyle NPCs can build one and the price was extremely fraudulent. At the very least even Zero Wing will feel a sting if they attempt to purchase just one. Now Violet Sword is using several to help him out.
What Shi Feng didn't know was that even Violet Sword felt a lot of heartache using the ray canons, afterall it could only last for several uses. If it wasn't for the fact that Netherworld Empire has profited so much from its partnership with Zero Wing and the Violet Sword's overwhelming desire to become the next great super guild, Torre would have never been able to convince the guilds grand elders to let them use the ray canons.
With the help of Violet Sword and the tier 5 Demon, the war slowly became one sided. With the inclusion of Shi Feng, the monster level experts on the super guild alliance side were helpless sheep for slaughter.
Aqua Rose and the others out on sea completely dominated the battle on sea. The combat power of a sea goddess and her sea guards could exert on sea can even dwarf a kingdom's navel power, not to mention a few guilds.
The war soon came to a close with Zero Wing killing more than 70% of the enemy forces. News of the battle soon spread throughout God's Domain. With less than 30,000 players, Zero Wing managed to fend off the combined forces of a Great Super Guild and four pseudo Great Super Guilds.
What other guild in the game can boast that kind of war record. The various superpowers now decided to take a wait and see approach with the guild.
To them Zero Wing was only as strong as ordinary Super Guilds, without a background they will never grow beyond a Super First Rate Guild. Now that has changed, if the guild can somehow acquire a domain realm legacy then it will become as strong as guilds like Thirteen Thrones and Violet Sword, only being a step away from being a Great Super Guild.
Not even guilds like Miracle, Divine Tripe, or Azura Chamber of Commerce can make such claims when they obtain their domain realm legacy.
