Chapter 1408 Total Defeat

The death of Zhan Baiya instantly silenced the entire scene, as if time had frozen.

The Tianmo (Heavenly Devil) Corps members around him were stunned on the spot, even those in the back row who were constantly casting spells to heal were motionless, staring fixedly at Zhan Baiya, who had fallen to the ground with his health points reduced to zero.

Sheng Wuji, Zi Qiong, and the others watching the battle from not far away almost popped their eyes out.

"Damn! Is he really a player?"

Even the usually refined Sheng Wuji couldn't help but swear, unable to believe what had just happened.

Who was Zhan Baiya?

He was the leader of the Tianmo Corps, known as the Devil of Magic. In his hands, magic skills were like living things. Even monsters who had mastered Domains found it extremely difficult to deal with his magic connections and coordination, let alone after drinking a Divine Protection Potion.

Yet, under such circumstances, Zhan Baiya was killed in one move, without even having time to use a life-saving skill.

"Dead? What exactly did he do?"

Zi Qiong's beautiful eyes widened as she stared incredulously at Shi Feng, who was standing proudly on the field.

Although she had seen Shi Feng kill Zhan Baiya and the other five, it happened too suddenly, so fast that she didn't even have time to react before it was over.

From beginning to end, she only saw Shi Feng suddenly appear in front of Zhan Baiya and the others, followed by a flash of brilliant light, and then Zhan Baiya and the other five fell to the ground. She didn't see anything else.

She was at the Vacuum Realm, and her five senses could be maximized, allowing her to clearly perceive everything around her. Even if the action speed was fast enough to escape the naked eye, it was impossible to escape her perception, not even for those old monsters who had mastered Domains.

But now, she didn't perceive anything at all...

On the battlefield, after killing Zhan Baiya and the other five, Shi Feng didn't rush to act, but turned his gaze to the Tianmo Corps members.

"Do you want to continue?"

Although Shi Feng's voice wasn't loud, it was unusually clear in the silent battlefield.

As soon as Shi Feng finished speaking, the Tianmo Corps members felt as if they had heard a death sentence. Each of them was utterly despondent. The two top experts who had been preparing to attack couldn't help but lower their heads, not daring to look Shi Feng in the eye, fearing that the godlike Shi Feng would think they were unwilling and rekindle his murderous intent.

Even Zhan Baiya, who had mastered a Domain, had been killed. What could they, the remaining people, do?

Continuing to fight would only increase the losses of the Tianmo Corps.

In an instant, the magic barrier that had just been constructed instantly collapsed, turning into twinkling starlight and dissipating.

Yuan Tiexin, who had just arrived from afar, was completely stunned by this scene, not understanding what had happened.

After explaining to Shi Feng, Shi Feng had rushed towards the teams of the Tianlong Fu (Sky Dragon Guild) and Aoshi Empire (Arrogant World Empire) without saying a word. Shi Feng's speed was as fast as a ghost, and he couldn't catch up at all.

Seeing the appearance of the magic barrier, he knew something was wrong. There must be a conflict between Shi Feng and the people from these two major guilds, otherwise such a high-level magic barrier wouldn't have appeared.

But the magic barrier had only been activated for less than five seconds before it collapsed...

Even someone as experienced as him couldn't understand it.

When he saw Zhan Baiya lying on the ground and the Tianmo Corps members with their heads lowered and despair in their eyes, he was even more dumbfounded. Who was Zhan Baiya? What was the Tianmo Corps? As an elder-level figure in Tianji Ge (Heavenly Secret Pavilion), he knew very well.

The Tianmo Corps members were all experts among experts, battle-hardened, and had made countless contributions to the Aoshi Empire. Each of them was extremely proud, and even if they encountered a strong enemy, they would fight to the death, never retreating in the slightest.

But now, Yuan Tiexin didn't understand. How could the proud Tianmo Corps not dare to fight, each of them completely lacking fighting spirit, their gazes towards Shi Feng filled with fear...

"Elder Yuan, your Tianji Ge is indeed amazing, hiding such a trump card all along. I, Sheng Wuji, admire you." Sheng Wuji looked at Yuan Tiexin, who had just arrived, and said somewhat unwillingly, "This time, our Jiaolong Tuan (Horned Dragon Legion) will give up the struggle for Shilin Town (Stone Forest Town), but this only means that our Jiaolong Tuan has given up, and does not mean that Tianlong Fu has given up. I hope you understand."

Yuan Tiexin nodded silently upon hearing this, his expression unchanged, but a monstrous wave had already risen in his heart.

He couldn't help but want to shout, what exactly did Shi Feng do?

Why did even the famous Jiaolong Tuan choose to give up the competition?

Before Yuan Tiexin could react, Sheng Wuji left this forest with his men, not daring to stay here any longer, as if staying even a moment longer could endanger their lives.

After the people from the Jiaolong Tuan and Tianmo Corps had all left, Yuan Tiexin asked Zi Qiong, who told Yuan Tiexin everything she had seen.

"So that's how it is. If it were me, I probably would have made the same choice as Sheng Wuji." Yuan Tiexin looked in the direction where Sheng Wuji and the others had left, a bitter smile on his lips.

Killing Zhan Baiya, who had drunk a Divine Protection Potion, in an instant, was beyond amazing.

The people of the Tianmo Corps and Jiaolong Tuan were arrogant, but not idiots.

If there was even a glimmer of hope, they would definitely fight to the death.

But in the face of such absolute power, their numbers were meaningless. Rather than being killed one by one, it was better to give up early and preserve their strength.

Thinking of this, Yuan Tiexin couldn't help but shift his gaze to Shi Feng, unable to believe that Shi Feng still had such power. This was even stronger than during the auction, and how long had it been?

However, Yuan Tiexin didn't know that Shi Feng was actually not doing well right now. Although he had increased some attributes compared to the auction, the increase was very limited.

Being able to be so powerful was entirely the result of combining a forbidden skill and a combat skill.

The secret method of Deep Sea Meditation could unleash a player's potential, but it also consumed a lot of a player's stamina and mental strength. Using Deep Sea Meditation in a place like the Bottomless Abyss was even more so.

Using Sword Light Reincarnation and Instant Flash in combination also consumed a lot of stamina and mental strength. Using them all together directly consumed more than half of his stamina and mental strength, making it impossible to use them a second time.

If the Tianmo Corps and Jiaolong Tuan continued to fight, he would only be able to escape...

On the side of the Jiaolong Tuan who had left, the members of the Jiaolong Tuan had ashen faces, each of them unwilling.

"Guild Leader, are we really just leaving like this? The Guild Master instructed us that we must take Shilin Town, and even if we can't take it, we must not let other forces get it," a level 67 ranger looked at Sheng Wuji worriedly and asked.

The Guild Master's orders were absolute. Returning now without any damage would definitely provoke the Guild Master's wrath.

"What are you worried about? The struggle for Shilin Town has only just begun. Even if we take Shilin Town now, we will still have to face the full onslaught of the major super forces later," Sheng Wuji said with a smile, "Faced with the full onslaught of the major super forces, even if our Tianlong Fu and Aoshi Empire join forces, we may not be able to completely defend it, let alone Hei Yan (Black Flame) and Tianji Ge?"

"The struggle for Shilin Town will only truly begin when the experts from all the major super forces have gathered. We are just testing the waters."

"Originally, that Hei Yan and Tianji Ge could have joined forces with us to defend Shilin Town, but it's a pity that they chose a path that was destined to be impassable!"

This time, Shilin Town's promotion to a city was no small matter. The number of super forces vying for it was so great that even their Tianlong Fu felt it was a headache, and they had no choice but to choose to cooperate with the Aoshi Empire. Thinking that they could defend Shilin Town by simply relying on the power of Tianji Ge was simply too naive.

Not long after Sheng Wuji and the others were talking, Shilin Town, which had been completely wrapped in a magic array in the Forest of the Dead and could not be seen clearly, suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Shilin Town was officially promoted to Shilin City (Stone Forest City)!

A genuine beginner guild city!
