Chapter 991 – Clues to the Undying Mother


    Everyone in and around the za gradually returned to their senses as the lightning faded. However, when they saw the state Tarnished Wind was in, their eyes widened in shock. This was especially so for the various pseudo-apex powers’ executives.


    Tarnished Wind got heavily injured? South Lake couldn’t believe his eyes.


    When Tarnished Wind took action, South Lake had thought of many possible oues, but none included a scenario where Tarnished Wind suffered severe injury.


    As Holy Dragon Spear and Red-Tailed Dragon were long-time partners, South Lake knew how strong Tarnished Wind was. Aside from Apocalypse, nobody present could confidently say they could face Tarnished Wind’s World Hammer ande out unscathed.


    To suppress Tarnished Wind, South Lake would have to work with Apocalypse at the very least. But now, Shi Feng had heavily injured Tarnished Wind with a single move. This situation overturned South Lake’s worldview.


    Is this the me God Set’s power? Apocalypse couldn’t help but link Shi Feng’s performance to the me God Set.


    ording to the Grand Library, the me God Set could grant a Tier 6 yer strength rivaling that of Primordial Gods. Although Apocalypse had doubted this information, this situation made him reconsider his opinion.


    Tarnished Wind was a Level 241 yer fully equipped with Divine Artifacts. He could stand among the strongest yers in the Greater God’s Domain. On the other hand, Shi Feng was only Level 232—the gap between them was over five levels. Unless Shi Feng could rival a Level 232 Primordial God in strength, it shouldn’t be possible for him to injure Tarnished Wind heavily with one move.


    “Impossible! You’ve obtained the me Dragon God’s Legacy?!” Tarnished Wind red at Shi Feng, his eyes filled with vexation and disbelief.


    Tarnished Wind had happened across information in the me Dragon God’s Nest that the me God Set could only unleash its true potential in the hands of the me Dragon God’s Legatee. However, even after fully utilizing Red-Tailed Dragon’s avable manpower, he failed to find any information about the me Dragon God’s Legacy. This was also why he was certain Shi Feng couldn’t fully utilize the me God Set, even after redeeming it.


    “Take a guess,” Shi Feng retorted, chuckling. Then, he executed the Threefold Mana Body Technique and swung the Shadow Incinerator.


    Goddess-ranked Mana Technique, Dark Moon!


    Aside from Absolute Thunder, this was the strongest attack he could muster. Although not as powerful as Absolute Thunder, when enhanced by his Pseudo-Tier 7 Mana, Dark Moon could exhibit power that surpassed that of Peak Gold Combat Techniques and touched upon the Pseudo-Tier 7 standard.


    Even when uninjured, Tarnished Wind couldn’t block this attackpletely. Now that he was missing an arm and heavily injured, he naturally stood no chance against it.


    Despite his attempt to block the attack, Tarnished Wind lost all his remaining HP to it. This situation petrified the Crimson Dragon Legion members considering joining the fight.


    Subsequently, a peculiar scene yed out in the treasury za. Despite the Crimson Dragon Legionprising Level 240 elite experts, none of the legion members dared to approach Shi Feng. On the contrary, they took a step backward for every step forward Shi Feng took. The scene was so spectacr that it shocked even Apocalypse, who had fought in the Greater God’s Domain for over a century.


    The Crimson Dragon Legion was Red-Tailed Dragon’s strongest trump card legion. It was a first-ss legion in the Primordial Dragon Sanctuary, primarily established to counter the various pseudo-apex powers’ Level 240 old monsters.


    No matter how powerful a yer was, there was a limit to their Stamina and Concentration. When empowered by a Large-scale Silver Battle Array, the Crimson Dragon Legion members, despite being equipped with only a few Fragmented Divine Artifacts, could achieve Basic Attributes on par with yers fully equipped with Divine Artifacts.


    If any pseudo-apex power’s Level 240-plus old monsters were to fight the Crimson Dragon Legion alone, they would ultimately copse from exhaustion. Although the Crimson Dragon Legion would sustain severe losses in the process, the death of a Level 240-plus old monster more than made up for these losses.


    But now, the Crimson Dragon Legion’s prided ability to whittle down Level 240-plus old monsters had turned into a joke in front of Shi Feng.


    After all, if Tarnished Wind couldn’t survive even two moves against Shi Feng, the Crimson Dragon Legion members naturally wouldn’t fare any better. They might not evenst one move against him. In that case, there was no way they couldst long enough to see Shi Feng run out of Stamina and Concentration.


    What the Crimson Dragon Legion members didn’t know was that Shi Feng couldn’t use thebination of the Threefold Mana Body Technique and Dark Moon many times. Even if he stopped using the Threefold Mana Body Technique, he still couldn’t use Dark Moon a thousand times consecutively.


    Could he be the seconding of Empyreal Wraith? South Lake was shocked and envious as he looked at Shi Feng.


    Empyreal Wraith. He was one of Demon’s Gate’s Nine Great Experts. The various apex powers feared him the most out of the Nine Great Experts. This was because he possessed a Divine Set and incredible talent forbat, with rumors saying he had reached the Half-step Mortal God standard. These factors enabled him to simultaneously fight over ten old monsters fully equipped with Divine Artifacts.


    Even apex powers did not have many Level 240-plus old monsters fully equipped with Divine Artifacts. Most were also required to defend strategic locations and couldn’t be mobilized on a whim. Hence, Empyreal Wraith’s strength made him a huge threat to the various apex powers.


    Although Shi Feng had yet to reach Empyreal Wraith’s level, he already had the makings of Empyreal Wraith. He should already be strong enough to threaten an entire pseudo-apex power by himself. After all, no pseudo-apex power had more than ten Level 240-plus old monsters fully equipped with Divine Artifacts.


    After Red-Tailed Dragon’s forces retreated from the treasury under an old man’s lead, the executives of the other pseudo-apex powers promptly approached Shi Feng to cozy up to him and express that their powers would never be enemies with Zero Wing. They also took the initiative to withdraw their members from the me Dragon God’s Nest andpensate Shi Feng with triple the entrance fee they previously agreed on. This situation allowed Shi Feng to earn over a million bottles of Life Potion.


    “Guild Leader ck me, congrattions. Zero Wing has finally stepped into the Greater God’s Domain’s uppermost echelon in the truest sense. Now that you’ve redeemed the me God Set and defeated Tarnished Wind, even the Neb Consortium will likely have to reconsider its conflict with Zero Wing,” South Lake said, offering his most sincere congrattions.


    “It was just a fluke,” Shi Feng said, shaking his head. “I doubt the Neb Consortium will even take notice of my fight here.”


    The Neb Consortium had a presence behind multiple apex powers. Shi Feng wasn’t gullible enough to believe that a yer equipped with a Divine Set was enough to get such a terrifying existence to take Zero Wing seriously.


    “You are too modest,” South Lake responded out of courtesy. He did not refute Shi Feng’s words because he agreed with Shi Feng’s sentiment. Moving on from this topic, he continued, “Regarding the Undying Mother you asked us to investigate, I finally obtained some reliable information yesterday. It wasst seen in the Giant Sanctuary’s Demon God Forest five days ago.”


    “It appeared in the Demon God Forest five days ago?” Shi Feng was both delighted and troubled by this unexpected news.


    The Undying Mother was the biggest obstacle for his reaching Tier 7. The Greater God’s Domain’s Twenty-Two Taboos were nomadic monsters that brought death and destruction wherever they went. It was incredibly difficult for yers to obtain information on them. This was because yers who encountered them usually died without knowing how they were killed. Hence, finding any of the Twenty-Two Taboos was a chore and required a lot of time.


    Originally, Shi Feng thought it would be weeks before he could locate the Undying Mother. Hence, he was pleasantly surprised to learn of its whereabouts so soon. At the same time, though, he couldn’t help but frown when he heard where the Undying Mother wasst seen.


    The Giant Sanctuary’s Demon God Forest, also known as the Lair of Demon Gods, was an incredibly dangerous forbiddennd in the human race’s Greater God’s Domain.
