Chapter 140 The Power of Flowing Water

Shi Feng's sudden change immediately alerted Fifth Ghost and Sixth Ghost, who quickly distanced themselves.

As experts in God's Domain, their perception of danger naturally surpassed that of ordinary people.

The others, who had been dumbfounded watching Shi Feng fight, were completely puzzled.

Shi Feng's appearance hadn't changed, nor had his stats increased. Why were Fifth Ghost and Sixth Ghost retreating?

"Is it just my imagination?"

Fifth Ghost didn't trust his senses, unable to understand why Shi Feng had changed so much.

The pressure Shi Feng exerted had transformed from that of a tiger to a Tyrannosaurus Rex, and one with exceptionally sharp claws and teeth at that.

Even a normal person would know to create distance, let alone them.

"Since you don't want to make a move, then it's my turn," Shi Feng said, a meaningful smile appearing on his face. He slowly approached them, sword in hand.

Entering the Micro realm was truly the dividing line for top-tier experts. Anyone who could reach it was a force to be reckoned with.

When a player reached the realm of meticulous control, they could exert minimal power to achieve maximum effect. This was especially noticeable in attack and evasion. Despite the opponent's higher speed, one could easily evade with the simplest body movements, easily dodging, and more efficiently discovering the enemy's weaknesses to deliver a fatal blow.

This was why the Micro realm was considered a dividing line.

Above the Micro realm was the even higher Flowing Water realm. By observing the opponent, one could integrate oneself into their mind, understand their every move, and constantly predict their next action, even steps ahead. This allowed for the most efficient response.

In other words, one could know what the opponent intended to do before they even acted, allowing for preemptive avoidance and response. This saved a considerable amount of time compared to reacting after the action had begun, resulting in quicker and sharper movements. Therefore, Fifth Ghost and Sixth Ghost's combined attacks were much easier to evade and counter for Shi Feng, who could already see through their intentions.

As Shi Feng approached Fifth Ghost and Sixth Ghost, they subconsciously retreated.

This back-and-forth stunned the onlookers, especially the Underworld Legion, whose jaws nearly dropped.

The Seven Underworld Ghosts were the highest combat power of the Underworld, yet the two before them seemed somewhat timid. What could be more unbelievable?

Shi Feng sighed helplessly, then took out Evil Ghost Possession from his backpack, gulped it down, and used Gale Sword on Fifth Ghost, transforming into a phantom. He instantly appeared before Fifth Ghost and swung his sword.

The sword was impossibly fast.

The crowd only saw a flash of black light; they couldn't even see the blade.

"So fast!" Fifth Ghost was shocked. Evasion was impossible. However, relying on his rapid reaction, Fifth Ghost acted faster than Shi Feng, instinctively using Triple Slash to block the shocking blow.

Clang!

Sparks flew. At the critical moment, Fifth Ghost's sword blocked Shi Feng's attack, but Fifth Ghost was forced back several steps to stabilize himself, his arm completely numb.

"How is this possible? Triple Slash?"

Fifth Ghost and Sixth Ghost stared at Shi Feng in shock, the sword skill being extremely familiar.

They had painstakingly mastered Triple Slash after much practice, yet Shi Feng had used it so easily. How could they not be surprised?

"So, it has this effect," Shi Feng said, looking at the Abyss of Darkness in his hand, also feeling astonished.

He had just entered the Flowing Water realm thanks to the pressure from Fifth Ghost and Sixth Ghost, but he hadn't expected entering the Flowing Water realm to assist with attacks in this way.

His attacks had originally been sped up by removing unnecessary movements, but now, perhaps because his control over his body had greatly improved, he mobilized all his strength to strike down in that instant. Not only were there no superfluous movements, but the attack also gained considerable acceleration, allowing the sword strike to reach his maximum speed in a very short time.

For example, if Fifth Ghost and Sixth Ghost's initial acceleration from when they started swinging their swords was 100 and their maximum speed was 20, it would take 0.2 seconds to reach their maximum speed. Now, Shi Feng's initial acceleration was 200, and with the same maximum speed of 20, it would only take 0.1 seconds, allowing him to strike his target much faster.

And this was assuming they had the same maximum speed. In reality, Shi Feng had higher stats, and his maximum speed was faster than Fifth Ghost and Sixth Ghost, so the increase in sword speed was even greater.

Thinking of this, Shi Feng became excited and wanted to find that feeling again. He stepped forward and launched another fierce attack on Fifth Ghost.

Flashes of black light appeared and disappeared, forcing Fifth Ghost to defend with all his might, but no matter how hard he tried, he was overwhelmed, forcing him to retreat again and again.

Sixth Ghost immediately rushed forward to help.

He swung a Triple Slash at Shi Feng's back. Originally, Shi Feng wouldn't have had time to block it, but suddenly, Sixth Ghost saw a black light emerge from behind Shi Feng, instantly pushing Sixth Ghost away.

"What exactly is going on?" Sixth Ghost looked at the calm and composed Shi Feng in disbelief, as if seeing a ghost.

Before, Shi Feng had to desperately block his attacks, but now, he could easily block them without even turning his head.

While Sixth Ghost was in a daze, a black light pierced through Fifth Ghost's defenses, piercing his heart. Instantly, a critical hit damage of over 3,000 points appeared above his head. A huge impact sent Fifth Ghost flying back, and due to the impact causing his defenses to collapse, black lights fell on Fifth Ghost's body one after another.

In an instant, Fifth Ghost's health reached zero, and equipment and items from his backpack scattered all over the ground.

Everyone was stunned by this scene.

What Shi Feng held in his hand wasn't a sword, but a laser gun. Fifth Ghost was taken down before he could even put up much of a fight.

Sixth Ghost finally reacted and tried to help, but it was too late. Shi Feng used Void Steps and disappeared again.

"Want to kill me? Not so easy!" Sixth Ghost roared and used Whirlwind Slash, sweeping his sword around.

A black light flashed, and with a boom, Sixth Ghost's war blade suddenly stopped. Then, another black light pierced through Sixth Ghost's body, instantly finishing him off, and he dropped equipment and items all over the ground again.

Seeing Fifth Ghost and Sixth Ghost lying on the ground, the Underworld Legion felt their skin crawl, their faces pale, and they turned to flee.

They knew exactly how strong Fifth Ghost and Sixth Ghost were.

The two could easily wipe out four or five Underworld Legion squads together. Shi Feng, who could take down both of them alone, could naturally wipe out their two squads with ease. If they didn't run, they would only meet their demise.

"Want to leave? Too late!"

Shi Feng directly switched the Ring of Space to the Ring of Wind, greatly increasing his movement speed. He caught up in an instant, and almost with one sword per person, he was like a whirlwind sweeping through.

The remaining ten Underworld Legion members instantly turned into a pile of corpses, and equipment and items from their backpacks were scattered all over the ground.
