The Big Black has now undergone a qualitative transformation, like a carp leaping from carp to dragon. [This chapter is provided by [Provider Name]]
Half a month ago, that leap on the precipice of the mountain was a turning point in its fate, a mutation of its species. It finally broke through the shackles of its predetermined birth by the Creator, shattered the most solid rules in the world, and finally transformed from an ordinary mongrel into a mutated super-level magical beast.
Today, its size is like a colossal mountain, inspiring awe.
Behind him were enormous wings that resembled countless black longswords arranged in a row, at least a hundred meters long when spread out. With a gentle flap of the wings, clumps of dark blue wind elements floated and swirled beneath him, steadily supporting his massive body. He was extremely agile, and in the blink of an eye, he had already soared into the sky, flying towards the Five Sword Heaven Peaks [ Sky City ].
Inzaghi's figure, like his expression, stood on the back of the Big Black, his long hair swaying wildly.
Suddenly, the Big Black twitched its nose, as if it had caught a peculiar scent.
With a flap of its wings, it suddenly spun 180 degrees, displaying incredible agility. Its enormous eyes blazed with terrifying crimson flames. Sensing something, it opened its mouth and roared, spewing out a massive ball of orange flame from its gaping maw.
The terrifying Fireball, trailing a long, dazzling tail, streaked across the sky like a meteor, moving at incredible speed as it shot towards a void behind it.
boom!!!!
The void trembled violently as a massive Fireball exploded, scattering terrifying flames and sending scorching gas that seemed to incinerate the void itself—a truly horrifying sight.
In the explosion, the azure sky tore open like a ripped sheet of paper, cracking into countless black fissures. Amidst screams, a charred figure fell from the void through the cracks, fleeing like a stray dog without looking back, turning into a black phantom and vanishing instantly into the horizon.
The Big Black let out a series of terrible, angry growls from its throat.
However, after a pause, it did not pursue, but turned and flew back towards the direction of Five Sword Heaven Peaks.
In the blink of an eye, they had already arrived at the central sacred mountain of [ Sky City ] through the Concealment shield and landed in front of the [ God King Hall ].
Inzaghi leaped down and slowly entered the [ God King Hall ].
Deep within the main hall, Sun Fei leaned against the Throne of Chaos behind the alluring white lotus.
As if he had known about Inzaghi's arrival all along, his eyes flashed like lightning as he looked Inzaghi up and down, nodding with satisfaction. "Not bad, you've finally broken through the bottleneck, haha, you've actually jumped two levels to the Nine-Star Class Intermediate Stage, which is beyond my expectations. Could it be that you had another adventure in Hot Springs Pass?"
Inzaghi bowed respectfully and then described in detail his trip to Hot Springs Pass.
"Yes, you did well. You only killed Kulun. Although old Ptolemy and Deisler were no good, the continental empires are on the verge of war. If we really wiped out the Ptolemy Family and the [ Gale Legion ], it would be tantamount to weakening the Zenit Empire. Hot Springs Pass will be vulnerable in the short term. Keeping them alive as the first line of defense to guard the southern route to our Chambord City will be very useful." After listening to Inzaghi's report, Sun Fei nodded, satisfied with Inzaghi and the others' performance at Hot Springs Pass. He thought for a moment and smiled, "I didn't expect that there would be survivors from that bloody night. It's gratifying and makes me feel good. This is the reason for your breakthrough. Very good. As for the female warrior named Danni Lizi and the children, settle them according to your idea. Have the Ministry of Revenue investigate. If their backgrounds are clean, register them and let them join our Chambord. Only children who have experienced hardship know how to cherish what they have. They will become the elite of Chambord City, just like Owen and the others."
"Thank you, Master." Inzaghi's face showed gratitude.
He then recounted in detail the gathering of high-ranking members of the [ Wind-Racing Horse ] and [ Fire Blood ] mercenary groups at a city restaurant, which he had previously discovered. With a hint of worry, he said, "Based on Michael's probing, the purpose of this gathering is probably not simple. They may be plotting some unspeakable scheme. I fear they intend to harm Chambord City and disrupt Your Majesty's grand wedding ceremony the day after tomorrow."
"Demons and monsters, clowns and clowns."
Sun Fei's eyes flashed with a sharp light, as if he had known this all along. His fingers lightly gripped the armrest of the [ Throne of Chaos ], and after a moment's thought with his eyes closed, he said, "The matter of the [ Wind-Racing Horse ] and [ Fire Blood ] mercenary groups is for you to investigate yourselves. I will no longer interfere. Use any means necessary, just don't cause too much of a commotion."
"Yes, Master."
"Yes, your strength has reached the Nine-Star Class Intermediate Stage. However, the residual medicinal power of the divine medicine within your body has not yet been fully activated and transformed into Dou Qi. For now, do not stay in [ Sky City ] to cultivate. Sitting and cultivating is no longer beneficial. You must know that the way of an assassin lies in the tempering of the critical moment in the midst of chaos. If you miss a strike, you may either flee thousands of miles away or hide within arm's reach. You must be adaptable. During this period, clouds gather from all directions in the city, and chaos ensues. This is the best environment for the five of you to hone your strength and mental state. Unleash your power and use actual combat to activate the transformation of your Dou Qi qi."
"Yes, Master." Inzaghi bowed respectfully, then vanished from the [ God King Hall ].
Inside the main hall, only Sun Fei remained, the atmosphere utterly tranquil. Only the demonic lotus swayed gently in the clear water and breeze, its beauty captivating.
Little Raccoon [ Little Overlord ] has disappeared. He's not very sociable and rarely hangs out with the Big Black and the four guys [ Enforcer ], [ Chick Girl], and [ Punk ]. He spends all day wandering around [ Sky City ] and is rarely seen except during mealtimes.
A sky-blue Teleport gate appeared silently in the main hall, and Sun Fei stepped into Teleport.
Nightmare Difficulty Diablo World.
At the Mount Arreat, heavy snow falls all year round, freezing the landscape for miles around. Everywhere you look, you are covered in a silvery white, which is exceptionally enchanting.
A fierce and terrifying battle has been raging for nearly four hours amidst the freezing wind and snow.
At this moment, a tremendous roar shattered the snowflakes falling from the sky, and the battle finally came to an end.
On the ancient altar, Talic, the most powerful of the three ancient guardian gods of the Barbarian race, finally transformed into a lifelike, enormous golden statue with a battle roar. Golden mist continuously emanated from the statue, surging into Sun Fei's body and spreading to every cell in his limbs and meridians, nourishing and strengthening Sun Fei physique.
This is the scene after completing the second-to-last quest on the Act 5 world map in Nightmare Difficulty, [ The Rite of Passage ].
Just like his experience on Normal Difficulty, in order to enter the Worldstone Keep and defeat the final boss Baal, Sun Fei must first endure the trials of the three Barbarian guardians: Talic, Korlic, and Madawc. Compared to the Normal Difficulty world, the strength of these three ancient Barbarian guardians in Nightmare Difficulty is many times greater. In their hands, the three Barbarian special skills, [ Whirlwind Slash ], [ Leap Attack ], and [ Flying Axe Throw ], have been pushed to an unbelievable level.
