Chapter 285
"No..." Qin Lang instinctively wanted to say it was nothing, but after thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll use it less."
"But Shen Xing, you really don't need to worry. I use this skill dozens of times a day, and I'm still full of energy the next day."
"Besides, I already checked on the forums, and other lords who changed their class to 'Sacrifice Knight' have also experienced this situation, but none of them have had any problems."
"Take Lu Zhou, Master Rank expert from our Heavenly Star Nation, for example. He also sacrificed his knightly profession, and he's still alive and well."
Shen Xing nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
At this moment, Xu Jiayi slowly extended her right hand and gently hooked it.
The cross on his back, like a drawn sword, flew automatically into the air and then stuck straight into the ground.
In an instant, waves of red energy rippled outwards, enveloping an area of several hundred meters in radius.
Everyone felt a strange power surge into their bodies again, forming a red shield on their skin.
[You have entered Sister of Condemnation: Xu Jiayi's 'Sin Punishment Domain'. When any enemy launches an attack, you will take 10% of the damage from that attack and have your skill cooldown increased by 30%.]
All friendly units gain a 'pseudo-super armor' form, their skills cannot be interrupted, and their attack speed is increased by 35%!
Wow! That's an awesome aura skill!
Qin Lang exclaimed in shock, "Everyone has 'pseudo-super armor' and a 35% attack speed bonus! That's almost as good as my 'Hymn of Sacrifice'!"
Xia Wanyin Yu Feifei were also somewhat surprised and turned to look at each other.
"Jiayi, is this your professional skill?" Shen Xing asked curiously, looking at the tall nun beside him.
"Hmm." Xu Jiayi nodded. "This is our exclusive weapon, the 'Cross of Condemnation,' which is said to have many functions."
"I recently switched to this profession, and this is the only skill I know how to do right now."
After saying that, she looked at Yu Feifei sitting on the white tiger again, a smile curving her lips.
"Ha, what's so smug about?" Yu Feifei rolled her eyes. "As if nobody doesn't have that."
"You have one too?" Shen Xing turned to look at her.
"Hmph, of course." Yu Feifei snorted softly, slowly raising her hands.
A bear paw print quickly formed on its head.
Immediately afterwards, the mark erupted, transforming into a pale green energy that swept across the entire area.
[Nature's Messenger: 'Yu Feifei' has cast 'Wind of the Wild' on you, increasing your movement speed by 35% and granting all your attacks a 10% lifesteal effect for 120 seconds...]
Once again, everyone felt a primal and refreshing power surge into their bodies, making them feel lighter.
"Wow, wow!" Qin Lang exclaimed again, "I can see now, you all possess extraordinary skills!"
"My 'Hymn of Sacrifice' increases attack by 45%, and 'Glorious Devotion' increases armor by 30%."
"Jiayi's 'Condemnation Domain' increases attack speed by 35% and grants pseudo-super armor."
"Yu Feifei's 'Wind of the Wild' increases movement speed by 35% and lifesteal by 10%..."
"With this blessing, the Boss One Star becomes the Boss, and the Boss becomes the Overlord!"
Just as Qin Lang said, their multiple amplifications resulted in a truly terrifying improvement.
And this doesn't even include the aura bonuses from other heroes.
For example, Leina's 30% fire damage bonus, Onyxia's 30% shadow damage bonus, Fordring's 20% armor aura, and Xiao Guang's 30% light damage bonus, etc...
All these factors combined resulted in a significant increase in the overall combat effectiveness.
"That's great," Shen Xing laughed. "I was worried about not having enough damage output before, but now I can kill them instantly like before."
At this moment, on the front lines of the battlefield.
With their attacks surging dramatically, Leina, Hellscream, and others once again demonstrated their terrifying battlefield dominance.
The Greater Fireball exploded like a nuclear bomb, instantly vaporizing even the Boss Rank Water Elemental.
Hellscream transformed into black Flame Tornado, sweeping across the battlefield.
Even Xu Jiayi's Xiao Xiao Yu Feifei's Steel Fang charged into the monster horde and wreaked havoc.
The battle was swift and decisive; all the Boss Rank mobs were wiped out within 15 seconds.
Only one dying three-star Boss, the Demonized Water Elemental, remained.
"Same as always, we'll take turns killing her, Wanyin goes first," Shen Xing said in a deep voice.
"Good."
Xia Wanyin responded, then controlled the Light Knight to throw a spear, completing the final reaping.
Shen Xing gathered up the spoils on the ground. "Keep going, keep going!"
Next, they maintained their formation and continued running through the swirling lotus leaves.
The monsters on the fourth floor are stronger, but also more numerous.
They can find a new Water Elemental Boss in almost just twenty or thirty seconds.
Moreover, with the help of Qin Lang, Yu Feifei, and Xu Jiayi, Leina once again transformed into a ruthless bulldozer.
Two Fireball Spell instantly killed all the Water Elemental minions, and then the others finished them off. The whole process took no more than 50 seconds.
Yu Feifei also noticed that they didn't seem to need to search at all; they were heading straight for the locations of the Boss at an alarming speed!
And all of this was because of the girl in the white dress who kept pointing out the directions.
She gave Xia Wanyin a deep look until Shen Xing's voice pulled her back from her thoughts.
"Yu Feifei, it's your turn."
"Huh? What?"
"Let's take this head and move on to the next one," Shen Xing said, pointing to the dying Water Elemental Boss on the lotus leaf.
Yu Feifei paused for a moment, then decisively shook her head and said, "No need. I'm here to help you get into the top ten. You don't need to give me points."
"It's not about giving away points, it's about cooperation," Shen Xing said. "At our current pace, we should all be able to get into the top ten, and we might even need your help for the next level."
Seeing that she was still hesitating, Xu Jiayi, who was standing next to her, said impatiently, "Hurry up, your legs are so long, why are you taking so long?"
"It's good that you don't want to go to the next floor; it saves me some peace and quiet."
"Hmph, I'm going with them!" Yu Feifei turned her head and ordered her Steelback bear to smash the Water Elemental with a single claw.
After collecting their spoils, they rushed toward their next target.
At this moment, players on the fourth level of the Lotus Pond Secret Realm began to form teams one after another.
They also discovered that the monsters on this floor were significantly more difficult.
Aside from a few exceptionally Overlord Rank units or Tier Three heroes, other lords are virtually impossible to kill independently.
However, teaming up means sharing the rewards with other lords, which naturally slows down their point accumulation rate.
Shen Xing and his group's combat power surged dramatically due to the combined effects of multiple buffs, so they were not significantly affected.
In a short time, the five people's points increased at an alarming rate.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed.
At this moment, the rankings for the secret realms have once again undergone significant changes.
[Lotus Pond Secret Realm - Fourth Floor]
[First Place: Jeremy Steele, Points: 10]
[Second Place: Dolores Jones, 9 points]
[Third Place: Xia Wanyin, 7 points]
[Fourth Place: Shen Xing, 6 points]
[Fifth Place: Qin Lang, 6 points]
[Sixth Place: Xu Jiayi, Points 6]
[Seventh Place: Yu Feifei, 6 points]
[Eighth place...]
On the leaderboard, all five of them squeezed into the top ten, directly occupying half of the spots.
This exaggerated monster-killing speed naturally attracted the attention of other top players.
However, many of them had heard of Shen Xing and his group's terrifying achievements on the previous level, which supposedly resulted in them killing more than twenty lords, including Lachlan, without sustaining any injuries.
Even the lords on the fourth level dared not easily make a move against them.
Moreover, those who reach this level are basically top-tier Tier Two lords from various countries, each with their own pride, and disdainful of joining others to besiege a disabled person.
This allowed Shen Xing and his group to recklessly grind monsters on the fourth floor, constantly widening the score gap.
During this time, Dolores did come to them, wanting to join the team.
However, Shen Xing firmly and firmly refused.
As for Asada Hitomi, she would avoid them whenever she saw them, and would never meet Shen Xing.
Time passed slowly, and soon an hour had gone by.
At that moment, a system notification appeared simultaneously in front of the five-person team.
[Ding! Your points ranking has entered the top ten.]
[Do you want to proceed to the next level?]
"I actually... we've really entered the fifth level..." Yu Feifei was still in a daze.
She thought that by using the system's 'loophole' to summon a large number of beasts from her territory to assist in battle, the fourth level would be her limit.
Unexpectedly, Shen Xing led me to the fifth floor...
This is such a glorious achievement that it needs no further explanation. There are no more than a hundred lords in the entire world who can reach the fifth level!
More importantly, there are the rewards. Even if she is immediately eliminated after entering, she is guaranteed to receive an Epic gem and a Boss Soul.
That's a huge profit!
Then, the scene before my eyes began to shatter, and everything twisted and changed.
Yu Feifei quickly selected 'Yes'.
Shen Xing and the others all clicked 'Confirm'.
