A dark void enveloped the battlefield. Let alone Tier 3 players, even Tier 4 players couldnât survive in this space.
Meanwhile, when Skyflareâs executives, seated in the spectator stands, saw this scene, they were dumbfounded.
âHow can one slash carry such destructive power?â
âEven those Tier 4 NPCs arenât capable of exhibiting such power! Is he really just a Tier 4 player?!â
âHe has such terrifying strength, yet we actually failed to find any information on him. Just who is he?â
After a moment of silence, Skyflareâs executives began a heated discussion among themselves as they goggled at the battlefieldâs shattered space. At this time, they no longer underestimated Shi Feng in the slightest. Now, only shock and fear filled their hearts.
With such terrifying combat power, Shi Feng was no longer an opponent vulnerable to zerg tactics. Only powerful Tier 4 NPCs could match him.
He was actually so strong?!

Yu Luoâs eyes were also wide with disbelief as she looked at the shattered space. Even Angelica Teresaâs strongest attack would fall short of Shi Fengâs from what she could tell.
Angelica Teresa was a Peak-rank Tier 4 existence and one of the top five powerhouses of Meteorite City. In addition, as an NPC, the items and Basic Attributes she possessed were also far superior to playersâ.
Yet, Shi Feng had actually executed an attack way stronger than even Angelica Teresaâs strongest attack.
âCommander!â
âThe commander couldnât have fallen, right?â After a while, Wind Chaser and the others snapped out of their daze and searched hurriedly for Lionheartâs figure in the dark void. Out of the player attacks they had seen thus far, Shi Fengâs was undoubtedly the strongest. Even Tier 4 NPCs were unlikely to be capable of executing such an attack. Hence, although they knew that Lionheart possessed a heaven-defying Defense, they couldnât help doubting his ability to survive Shi Fengâs attack.
After everyone had searched for some time, the shattered space gradually recovered. Two vague figures appeared, standing in the recovering space, with one of them looking incredibly miserable.
âThis is great! The commander is still alive!â
âI knew the commander could withstand it! He is Meteoriteâs Wall, after all! Thereâs no way he can be one-shotted by a player!â
When Skyflareâs members saw Lionheartâs figure, they immediately grew excited.
However, unlike his colleagues, Lionheart did not feel happy or excited at all. Instead, his heart pounded with fear and relief.
That was too close. If not for the Windwall Ring, I wouldâve definitely been one-shotted. Lionheart smiled bitterly when he looked at his remaining HP.
Currently, he had less than six million HP remaining. While this might seem like a lot, he had only managed to retain this amount of HP thanks to the Windwall Ringâs Passive Skill.
The Windwall Ringâs Passive Skill, Windâs Protection, was capable of reducing all the damage he received by 35%. Even if he received a Tier 5 attack, its damage would still be reduced by a full 35%. Windâs Protection was also the Windwall Ringâs only Skill.
The Windwall Ring was different from other equipment with Passive Damage Reduction Skills. Although the alternatives might even have Skills offering much greater reductions than Windâs Protection on paper, there were hidden limits to these Skills. Generally, their upper limit was Tier 4; once an attack reached the Tier 4 standard, their effect would be significantly weaker. And against Tier 5 attacks, their effect was practically negligible.
However, that was not the case for the Windwall Ringâs Windâs Protection. The Skillâs description clearly stated that it could reduce the damage of even Tier 5 attacks by 35% and not 1% less.
On the other side, after Shi Feng executed Holy Devour, his complexion had paled significantly.
Is it still too much to execute this move?
When Shi Feng sensed that more than half of his Concentration had disappeared, he was shocked.
He had already developed his Epic Mana Body to 110% Completion Rate, yet he still had trouble gathering and condensing the Mana required to execute Holy Devour. For a moment, he couldnât help imagining what kind of power he could exhibit if he successfully executed the Third Sword, Holy Annihilation.
Tier 5?
Tier 6?
Regardless, this is a good result. At the very least, I can now use the complete Holy Devour. Now, I should be able to cope, even against a Half-step Demon King. As Shi Feng sheathed the Abyssal Blade, he was satisfied with his previous attack.
Although his Mana had undergone a qualitative transformation, thanks to the improvement of his Mana Body, the improvement this change brought to his Skills and Spells was limited. It wasnât enough for them to undergo a qualitative transformation.
However, it was a different story for Mana Techniques, whose power was highly dependent on the quality of the Mana used. Now, if he went all-out, he could execute an attack at the Tier 5 standard. The only drawback of Holy Devour was the huge burden it placed on his Concentration. Even at peak condition, he could execute the complete Holy Devour only once. Nevertheless, it was already more than enough as a trump card.
As Shi Feng was savoring the experience of executing Holy Devour, Lionheart approached him.
âBrother Black Flame, that move of yours really is ruthless. If I hadnât gained some improvements recently, I wouldâve really died,â Lionheart said jocularly.
At this moment, Lionheart no longer underestimated or looked at Shi Feng with contempt; only respect was present in his eyes. The fact that Shi Feng had managed to execute such a move as a player meant that he already stood at the apex of the entire Godâs Domain. Just this point alone was already more than enough to earn him everyoneâs respect. In Godâs Domain, strength was everything. It was also something that could not be faked. For Shi Feng to have developed himself to this extent, he mustâve experienced countless trials and hardships.
âYouâre too humble, Commander Lionheart. The fact that you managed to block my attack is all due to your own ability, not luck.â Looking at Lionheart, Shi Feng added, âNow that our one-hit agreement is complete, according to our previous arrangement, I will supply the Crystals of Souls and Soul Water to only the Skyflare adventurer team for Meteorite Cityâs side.â
âThank you. As for the matter of Magic Crystals, please rest assured. The Skyflare adventurer team definitely wonât let you down, Brother Black Flame.â Lionheart couldnât help feeling a little happy at Shi Fengâs words.
With Shi Feng willing to partner with Skyflare, Skyflare would be able to take full control of Meteorite City easily.
âNext, letâs talk about the specifics of our transaction.â Going straight to the point, Shi Feng said, âLike I said before, so long as you manage to withstand one hit from me, I will agree to partner with you, Commander Lionheart. However, after we start our cooperation, Iâll need your help with something.
âOf course, I wonât have you help me for nothing. In exchange, Iâll sell the Crystals of Souls at 150,000 Magic Crystals each to Skyflare. How about it?â âOne hundred and fifty thousand each?â Lionheart was slightly tempted. âMay I know what you need help with?â.
Previously, when he offered to purchase the Crystals of Souls at 200,000 Magic Crystals each, the price was actually a little too high for Skyflare to bear. However, the Crystals of Souls were far too important. They would also play a crucial role when Skyflare attempted to conquer other Main Cities. Hence, he had gone through with the price.
Lowering the price to 150,000 Magic Crystals each would definitely alleviate a lot of Skyflareâs burden.
âHelp me kill a Boss,â Shi Feng said, smiling.
The reason Shi Feng wanted to test Lionheart wasnât just to experiment with the power of his upgraded Mana Body. He had also wished to see whether Lionheart could withstand the attack of a Tier 4 Infant Dragon. After all, if he didnât have anyone capable of tanking a hit from a Tier 4 Infant Dragon, slaying it would be utterly impossible.
Since Lionheart clearly met this requirement, combined with the effects of the Heavenly Dragonâs Breath, challenging an unrestrained Tier 4 Infant Dragon was entirely feasible.
âKill a Boss?â Lionheart was a little puzzled. He never thought Shi Fengâs request would be so simple. âIs this Boss very strong?â
âVery strong.â Not bothering to hide the truth, Shi Feng said, âItâs a Tier 4 Infant Dragon!â âA Tier 4 Infant Dragon?â Lionheart gasped at Shi Fengâs words. Immediately, he thought of something and asked, âAre you referring to the one Lady Angelica is trying to challenge?â âThatâs right. Itâs that one.â Shi Feng nodded. âActually, this matter is also beneficial to you as well, Commander Lionheart. After all, Meteorite Cityâs promotion will attract more players and resources to the city. At that time, Skyflare can grow stronger together with the city.â
Lionheart nodded in agreement.
In reality, he, too, wished for Meteorite City to grow stronger and become an Advanced Main City. However, the incredibly high difficulty of challenging a Tier 4 Infant Dragon made him decide to have Skyflare opt out of Angelica Teresaâs expedition.
After all, Skyflare already had two Tier 4 players under its command, and it had yet to stabilize its advantages. If Skyflare eagerly participated in the risky expedition and failed, the adventurer team would definitely lose a lot of its advantages.
âWhat do you think, Commander Lionheart?â Shi Feng asked. Previously, he didnât hold much hope for slaying the Tier 4 Infant Dragon. After all, a Tier 4 Infant Dragon was comparable to Tier 5 existences; it was much stronger than even a Demon Prince. Even though he could use the complete Holy Devour now, it wouldnât make any difference since he couldnât use the technique indefinitely.
However, the story would change if Lionheart was present.
The fact that Lionheart could survive a Tier 5 attack meant that he could defend against a Tier 4 Infant Dragonâs attack.
âOkay.â After thinking for a while, Lionheart gritted his teeth and agreed to Shi Fengâs condition. âHowever, Brother Black Flame, as Skyflare has just gained some advantages, we cannot afford to invest everything into helping you. We can send only a 100-man team, at
most.â
In response to Lionheartâs worries, Shi Feng simply chuckled and said, âThatâs already more than enough. In fact, itâs fine so long as Skyflare can dispatch its two Tier 4 players, let alone a 100-man team.â
âMay I know when we will begin the operation?â Lionheart asked.
Raiding a Tier 4 Infant Dragon was an important matter. Preparing the necessary manpower and supplies would take a lot of time.
âWeâre not in a rush right now. Iâm afraid it will still take several days before we can set out,â Shi Feng said, shaking his head. âIâll notify you when the time comes, Commander Lionheart.â
Challenging a Tier 4 Infant Dragon with just three Tier 4 players would be outright suicide. It wouldnât matter even if they had a large number of Tier 3 players supporting them. Fortunately, the ancient Godâs Domain did not require players to search for their Legacy Lands to challenge their Tier 4 Promotion Quests. So long as he had Lifeless Thorn and the others challenge their Promotion Quests and some of them succeeded, he would have a much greater chance of success.
âAlright. If thatâs the case, I can make more preparations on my side.â Lionheart breathed out a sigh of relief at Shi Fengâs words.

Afterward, Shi Feng signed a partnership contract with Lionheart to the effect that Skyflare would purchase Crystals of Souls from Shi Feng at 150,000 Magic Crystals per crystal and Soul Water at 30,000 Magic Crystals per drop. For the first transaction, Skyflare purchased a total of 20 Crystals of Souls and 50 drops of Soul Water, the total expenditure amounting to 4.5 million Magic Crystals. When it came to Magic Crystals, Skyflare was wealthier than most superpowers operating in the modern Godâs Domain.
When the transaction was completed, Shi Feng couldnât help his elation.
After all, he now had the eight million Magic Crystals required to construct the Small Mobile Fortress. Afterward, all he needed to do was collect two million pieces of Mana Ore and 30,000 Mana Stones. In addition, he also had a chance to raid the Tier 4 Infant Dragon.
Leaving the Skyflare Hotel, Shi Feng looked at the additional 4.5 million Magic Crystals in his bag and smiled.
Now that I have the money, itâs about time to have Lifeless Thorn and the others undergo their promotion.
