Chapter 1 Adding Trouble

"This guy is just making trouble for us. One Stone Wall Giant was already pushing Yùshēng Mòmò to the limit. Two at once? Who can stop them?" Lin Ya’s expression was grim as she watched the Stone Wall Giants charge at Shifeng. "There's no need to prove yourself like this just because you're upset, right? This is just trying to make Yùshēng Mòmò and the others laugh!"

Yùshēng Mòmò using him as an excuse to ask for more rewards was indeed annoying, making him seem like a burden. But trying to prove himself this way was just foolish.

After all, everyone in these ruins had a different role. Shifeng’s main contribution was in the back. Once he took out the airship, Yùshēng Mòmò and the others would naturally shut their mouths.

"Yùshēng, let's get ready. This kid probably won’t last long. If he dies, we’ll have to do it all over again." Méi Jiàoyǎng de Niú watched the approaching Stone Wall Giants and drew his crystal battle blade from his back.

Although this wasn't the start of the quest, players who died here couldn't be resurrected and had to wait to be revived outside, losing 5% of their experience. He didn't want to spend hours doing it all over again.

"Don't rush. That kid seems strong. He should be able to hold on for four or five seconds with that confidence. We'll move in when he’s about to die, just to show him what he's worth, so he won't cause us trouble later." Yùshēng Mòmò shook his head and smiled.

"True." Méi Jiàoyǎng de Niú agreed, finding it reasonable.

Every expert had their trump cards. The Stone Wall Giants might be strong, but holding them off for four or five seconds shouldn't be a problem. If they acted too soon, it would make them seem worthless.

Just as Yùshēng Mòmò and Méi Jiàoyǎng de Niú reached an agreement, the two Stone Wall Giants stood before Shifeng, swinging their iron fists, each the size of a small hill, directly down at him.

The Stone Wall Giants were ten meters tall, and each punch was earth-shattering, like a meteor falling, with a range of ten yards. Not even a second-tier assassin could dodge, let alone a second-tier swordsman. They would definitely be grazed by the Stone Wall Giants' attacks.

Even being grazed by the attack of a level 101 High Lord would greatly reduce the HP of a second-tier MT (Main Tank) with high defense. It was normal for a second-tier cloth-armor class to be instantly killed.

Two Stone Wall Giants attacking simultaneously would kill even a second-tier MT, unless they used a life-saving skill.

Just as everyone thought Shifeng would use a life-saving skill to block the attacks, he suddenly drew the Holy Sword, Killing Ray, and the Demonic Weapon, Abyssal Blade, and gently slashed at the falling iron fists.

Two streaks of sword light imprinted on the iron fists, leaving a visible sword mark on each, and the trajectories of the attacks immediately changed. Both landed ten yards away from Shifeng, leaving deep craters in the ground.

Before the two Stone Wall Giants could attack again, Shifeng appeared at their feet and slashed horizontally with the Holy Sword, Killing Ray.

Void Sword Light!

Six streams of sword light, formed from the power of the void, struck the Stone Wall Giants' knees, exploding for over 800,000 damage each. The terrifying power caused the two Stone Wall Giants to kneel on the ground, their attacks abruptly halting.

Silence!

It was as if time had frozen. Everyone present, whether they were members of the Giant's Heart like Lin Ya or Yùshēng Mòmò and Méi Jiàoyǎng de Niú, had completely blank expressions, unable to believe what they had just witnessed.

Far from needing to save his life against the two Stone Wall Giants, he was actually gaining the upper hand...

He casually deflected their iron fists, which they could barely dodge. The speed of his attacks was so fast that even they could barely see them. But the most terrifying thing was the power Shifeng displayed.

He could actually withstand the Stone Wall Giants' unavoidable skills head-on and not be at a disadvantage.

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!" Yùshēng Mòmò stared at Shifeng, who was fighting against the two Stone Wall Giants, and exclaimed, "How can a player have such power?"

He was a direct descendant of the Sea God, and his power in the Sea God's world was nearly invincible. Yet, facing the Stone Wall Giants, he could only slightly influence their attacks, delaying their advance.

But a player who wasn't a Sea God's descendant was actually overpowering two Stone Wall Giants. This completely shattered his worldview.

"Third-tier!" Although Mò Qiūbái was incredulous, he still said the most likely answer he could think of, "He must be a third-tier Sword King!"

Everyone was shocked by the words "third-tier Sword King."

Second-tier classes were common in God's Domain, especially in front of NPCs. Only by becoming a third-tier class could one become a true expert, recognized by the NPCs, and even become the lord of a city. This was the goal they had been striving for.

Even with their current extraordinary strength, they weren't very confident in their third-tier class advancement because their inheritance was unique, making the difficulty of third-tier advancement much harder than for other ordinary players, requiring thorough preparation.

But while they were still worrying about their third-tier advancement, Shifeng was already a third-tier Sword King!

"Just who is he?" Lin Ya looked at Shifeng, filled with confusion.

She didn't think a small guild like Zero Wing could nurture a third-tier expert so quickly. Even the super guilds didn't have a third-tier expert yet, and he was so strong.

She thought back to when she and the four top experts of the guild invited Shifeng, wanting to show him the strength of the Giant's Heart. Now, it seemed laughable.

"Yùshēng, you've really messed up this time," Méi Jiàoyǎng de Niú said with some sympathy. "With his combat power, let alone killing you, he probably wouldn't need ten seconds to take both of us down."

A third-tier class was no joke!

The more they reached this level, the more they understood the power of a third-tier class. It wasn't just about stronger attributes; it was about the physical strength. The reaction speed and control over the body were unmatched by a second-tier class.

Yùshēng Mòmò's expression was also terrible. He hadn't expected this. He had originally wanted to earn more by using Shifeng as an excuse, but he had accidentally provoked a tiger.

He wasn't afraid of the Giant's Heart because his power in the Sea God's world was almost invincible. It wouldn't be easy for the Giant's Heart to deal with him in the outside world. They would need a large army to besiege him. But Shifeng was different. He could kill him alone.

If Shifeng put a tracking mark on him, he could be killed in the wild at any time, making it difficult for him to even go out.

"Aren't you going to open the door?" Shifeng asked Mò Qiūbái after fighting for a while.

"Open it! We'll open it now!" Mò Qiūbái finally reacted and quickly ordered everyone to open the tightly closed doors of the temple.

Because of Shifeng, Mò Qiūbái and the others opened the temple doors easily, without worrying about the Stone Wall Giants' counterattack. They could focus on breaking the seal. In just twenty-five seconds, the temple doors rumbled open.

Seeing Mò Qiūbái and the others enter the temple one by one, Shifeng used Void Sword Light to push back the two Stone Wall Giants and rushed into the temple doors, disappearing into the dark cave.
