Chapter 742 - Deciding Strike
Shi Feng’s sudden evasion of the silver-robed man’s One Spear, Six Transformations left the Secret Pavilion members speechless.
“How did he do it?!” Cold Autumn’s eyes widened as he stared at Shi Feng, who still had his eyes closed.
Shi Feng had avoided that godlike spearmanship, which had been impossible to dodge with open eyes, with his eyes closed.
This was simply inconceivable!
Yuan Tiexin was similarly stunned.
“Black Flame really is surprising. I had never imagined he would see through Sky’s One Spear, Six Transformations so quickly,” Yuan Tiexin exclaimed. “Years ago, I suffered numerous losses against Sky’s One Spear, Six Transformations, yet Black Flame had seen through it after only a couple of attacks. Could he be a monster?”
The silver-robed man named Sky was one of the Flower of Seven Sins’s veteran assassins. Many top-tier experts from Super Guilds had suffered immensely at Sky’s hands. Sky had even killed many experts who had also stepped into the Void Realm.
Only those at the Void Realm, who could exert their five senses to their limits and possessed rudimentary control over their surroundings, had the ability to block One Spear, Six Transformations.
Even Yuan Tiexin struggled to defend against One Spear, Six Transformations while wielding two weapons. He could block four or five strikes at most.
However, he was a Shield Warrior, so he had a much easier time defending against the spear strikes with a shield. Only, he would have a much harder time closing in on Sky.
Of course, there were many Skills in the game, such as wide-range attacks, that could neutralize such precision attacks. One could also distance themselves from Sky. After all, a Berserker’s attack range was only so far. Even a long spear would not increase one’s attack range by much.
However, in a close-quarters, high-speed battle like this, aside from the Lifesaving Skills that one could activate with a thought, it was impossible to defend against Sky’s attacks with Skills. Skills generally required specific motions before activation. This would create a sense of disharmony in expert players. Their attacks using Skills would not be as fast and natural as their normal attacks. Hence, this would reveal weak points that they did not normally possess.
It was this reason precisely that experts in the Refinement Realm or above rarely used Skills in close combat against other players as it was highly possible that one weakness would spell their doom.
Shi Feng had yet to reach the Void Realm. However, without using any Skills, he still managed to neutralize Sky’s One Spear, Six Transformations. This was the first time Yuan Tiexin had seen such an occurrence.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield, after Sky calmed his slightly surprised heart, fighting spirit flared in his eyes. He began to execute One Spear, Six Transformations once more.
Sky executed his specialty technique numerous times in succession. Yet, Shi Feng dodged all of his attacks with his eyes closed, launching a counter attack each time.
Initially, Shi Feng had only gotten one hit in during his counterattacks. Now, he landed two hits.
Although Sky had blocked every attack Shi Feng had sent at him, he had received a lot of damage. Each one of Shi Feng’s attacks had dealt over -500 damage. Shi Feng’s Strength was astonishing.
In God’s Domain, the resulting impact as weapons clashed would offset the damage. If there were a significant difference between the combatants’ Strength, however, some damage would occur. However, this damage was usually so low that it was almost negligible.
