Chapter 2859 – Returning to the Eastern Continent

Eastern continent, Demon Mist Valley:

“What rotten luck . We actually got teleported to a forbidden land . ”

Crimson Witch frowned as she observed the faint red mist surrounding her .

Divine Tribe had conducted a thorough investigation into the forbidden lands on both continents . This was because these locations were incredibly dangerous; current players couldn’t visit them . Moreover, players would first have to exit the forbidden land before they could teleport out of the map .

After players entered Level 100-plus maps, it was found that these maps possessed plenty of spatial tears and random teleportation points . Any one of these traps had a high chance of teleporting players to dangerous locations like forbidden lands . Hence, to reduce the chances of their important combatants dying after getting teleported forcibly to a forbidden land, the superpowers investigated the various forbidden lands and provided this information to their members .

The Demon Mist Valley was one of the better-known forbidden lands on the eastern continent .

The reason for its fame was the red mist shrouding the map all year round . Anyone who entered this place, even Tier 48, would have their physique and senses heavily suppressed, unable to exert even half of their normal combat power .

In addition, the monsters in the Demon Mist Valley possessed incredibly powerful Defense and Magic Resistance . The weakest monster here was a Level 130 Great Lord; there were also plenty of Mythic monsters and even Superior Mythic monsters . Even Tier 4 experts would have a very low chance of survival if they got sent to this forbidden land unprepared . Hence, the various superpowers had placed particularly great importance on the Demon Mist Valley .

“Our luck isn’t all that bad . At least we didn’t get sent to the central region . We’re only at the boundary between the inner and outer regions,” MacAffrey, the Silver Lion Legion’s vice commander, said after checking his map . Pointing at the valley in the forest in front, he continued, “We should reach the outer region in three hours if we head in that direction . ”

The Demon Mist Valley did not just prevent teleportation, but its red mist also prevented Tier 4 players from flying . In fact, even Flying Mounts could only walk here . “Guild Leader Black Flame, let us hurry out of here . We’ll get surrounded by monsters if we stay for too long . At that time, leaving the Demon Mist Valley will become even more troublesome,” Fithalia suggested as she looked at Shi Feng . Although the red mist heavily suppressed players’ perception, the monsters inside the Demon Mist Valley were unaffected . Hence, monsters would almost always notice players before players detected them . In addition, now that monsters in God’s Domain had gained self-awareness and greater intelligence, they would almost always ambush players in packs . Not to mention, their group was currently in the Demon Mist Valley’s inner region . According to Divine Tribe’s research, the chances of a Superior Mythic monster appearing here was quite high . Quite a number of Mythic monsters also roamed the area .

If their group caused a huge commotion, it could easily attract a pack of Mythic monsters . Even for Tier 4 players like themselves, fighting multiple Mythic monsters was very dangerous .

“Sure . ” Shi Feng nodded .

After arriving in the Demon Mist Valley, he had already spread his senses . Despite his perception getting suppressed to just a 2,000-yard radius, he still managed to discover two Mythic monsters and more than 30 Level 140-plus Grand Lords . It would indeed be very troublesome if their small group had to fight against all these monsters .

Following this, the group of four made their way into the valley under Shi Feng’s lead .

Now that Shi Feng’s Concentration had reached the Tier 5 standard and his control over Mana had achieved World Creation, even after walking through the valley for over an hour, the four did not come across a single battle . This situation confused Fithalia and the others, and they could only assume that an army of players had cleared this valley recently .

However, as the group approached the outer region, the density of the monsters in the area also increased . Although Shi Feng had a perception range of 2,000 yards, he still had greater difficulty finding a safe route to travel .

“Huh? Players?”

Suddenly, Shi Feng detected strong Mana fluctuations coming from a forest some distance ahead, indicating a battle taking place there .

After advancing a little more, the group even began hearing sounds of battle .

Shortly after hearing the noise, the group saw a Level 145 Superior Mythic ranked Four-winged Feathered Dragon rising from the forest a thousand yards away . The Feathered Dragon then used a breath attack, turning the forest within a 500-yard radius into ash .

Along with the destruction of a portion of the forest, three figures-one female and two males-entered the sight of Shi Feng’s group . These three players were all Tier 4 players . Shi Feng even recognized two of them . One was Sixteenth Cloud, the Second Vice Guild Leader of Shining Tiger; the other was the Assassin Sorrowful Silence . The only reason the trio managed to survive the Feathered Dragon’s breath attack was the Tier 4 Guardian Knight of the group .

However, after taking on that breath attack, the Guardian Knight did not have much HP remaining . None of the three was a healer, either, so the Guardian Knight could only rely on potions to heal himself . Evidently, it wouldn’t be long before they fell to the Superior Mythic monster .

“Dammit! To think we’ll actually die here!”

Sixteenth Cloud, who wielded a crimson staff, glared at the Four-winged Feathered Dragon’s 60-meter-long frame with inevitable frustration .

“That’s right! We should’ve fought those people outside instead . It would be much better than getting killed by this monster,” Sorrowful Silence said, nodding in agreement .

“There’s no helping it . Who would’ve thought we would encounter such a monster as soon as we ducked into the inner region?” Sixteenth Cloud said with a bitter smile . “I guess fate really wants us dead . ”

They had gone to great lengths to escape the Outerworld experts’ pursuit, running all the way from the Demon Mist Valley’s outer region to the inner region . Originally, they thought they could lose those Outerworld experts after hiding in the inner region . They never imagined that a Superior Mythic monster might be guarding the border . The Four-winged Feather Dragon wasn’t just a Superior Mythic monster . It was also the Realm Lord of this area . Even a 20-man Tier 4 team would have difficulty fighting it under normal circumstances, what more under the Demon Mist Valley’s suppression?

And worse, the Feathered Dragon could fly . There was no way to escape it . Players that encountered the Feathered Dragon had only two options: kill it or be killed by it . There was no third option .

However, before Sixteenth Cloud and Sorrowful Silence could continue their conversation, the Feathered Dragon flapped its two sets of wings, sending countless wind blades at the three players . The Boss did not give the trio a chance to catch a breather .

Upon seeing the approaching wind blades, Sixteenth Cloud swung her crimson staff, instantly raising a wall of flames in front of the three .

The wall of flames rose over a hundred meters, blocking all the oncoming wind blades . And once the flames stopped the attacks, they transformed into a phoenix that flew toward the Feathered Dragon .

Tier 4 Curse, Phoenix Flame!

Phoenix Flame was actually a Tier 4 Offensive Curse . However, Sixteenth Cloud not only utilized it as if it were a Defensive Curse but even switched it to offense afterward . Her mastery of this Tier 4 Curse was simply superb .

However, just as the phoenix was about to devour the Feathered Dragon, the latter suddenly let loose a deafening roar . Immediately afterward, the flames making up the phoenix got extinguished one after another . The phoenix eventually disappeared before it could reach the Feathered Dragon’s body .

“Mana Annihilation!?”

Sixteenth Cloud was thunderstruck when she saw the flames disappearing, her mind unable to accept this situation . If the flames had merely failed to damage the Feathered Dragon because they lacked power, she would still be able to understand it . However, as she held full control over the flames, she could tell that the flames hadn’t died naturally . Instead, they got extinguished because the Mana used to create and fuel them had been annihilated . “How can a Boss hold such a Skill?! This is cheating!”

Sorrowful Silence fell into despair as he looked at the Feathered Dragon . Although he didn’t know the exact details of the situation because he wasn’t the creator of those flames, he could tell that those flames had died due to Mana Annihilation .

In other words, all Spells would be a joke in front of the Feathered Dragon .

Moreover, as an Inferior Dragon, the Four-winged Feathered Dragon possessed incredible Defense . If magical attacks were ineffective against it, it would be a nigh-invincible existence .

After destroying Sixteenth Cloud’s Curse, the Feathered Dragon flapped its wings and sent wind blades at the three players once more .

“It seems this is the end for us . ”

Looking at the innumerable oncoming wind blades, Sixteenth Cloud could only shrug helplessly and wait for death to claim her .

Originally, she had hoped her Tier 4 Curse would heavily injure the Feathered Dragon, creating an opportunity for their party to escape . However, let alone heavily injuring the Feathered Dragon, she couldn’t even damage it . In front of an Inferior Dragon capable of using Mana Annihilation, an Elementalist like herself was nothing but a joke . She was of no threat to it at all .

Yet, just as the countless wind blades were about to strike Sixteenth Cloud and the others, a magic barrier suddenly emerged from the ground before them . The barrier stopped the wind blades, releasing the trio from death’s grip .

“Crystalline Barrier?”

When Sixteenth Cloud saw the shattered magic barrier in front of her, she immediately recognized the Tier 4 Spell used to create it . With his keen eyes, Sorrowful Silence quickly noticed some figures emerging from the distant forest . “Vice Guild Leader, there are people coming from over there . ” At Sorrowful Silence’s words, Sixteenth Cloud promptly turned toward the direction he indicated .

What entered her vision were four people, two male and two females, emerging from the forest roughly 500 yards away . It was evident that these four people were responsible for the Tier 4 Defensive Spell that had saved their party .

“Black Flame?”

When Sixteenth Cloud saw one of the cloaked men of the group, she couldn’t help her surprise .

She had met with the man known as Black Flame once before, when negotiating with Zero Wing for partnership on behalf of Shining Tiger . However, after that event, she had paid very little attention to Zero Wing, focusing it all on developing Shining Tiger’s forces in the Glory Empire .

If not for Shi Feng having accomplished astonishing feats that shook the entirety of God’s Domain, she would’ve long since forgotten his appearance .
