Chapter 458 - Fleeting Sword
Straight-line attacks were very easily seen through, yet Sumr Sunshine did not seem to care about using them at all.
With Omnivision, Shi Feng’s every action was being scrutinized by Sumr Sunshine. Even if Shi Feng thought about his next move, Sumr Sunshine could imdiately see through it and react appropriately. He was not afraid of his attack being seen through at all.
Moreover, unlike Sumr Sunshine’s previous assault, this ti, whether it was his movents or the dagger he was swinging at Shi Feng, neither made any noise. His attack was both quick and silent, and it simply gave one no ti to react at all.
When an ordinary person was moving or attacking, they would always produce so form of sound. A sound would be produced because vibrations would form when an object moved through the air. These vibrations were caused due to energy dispersing from unnecessary actions, and the larger the vibrations, the louder the sound.
Although attacks that generated thundering sounds looked very imposing, a lot of energy was wasted.
In contrast, the less vibrations one produced when they attacked, the more concentrated the energy behind the attack would be. Naturally, the might of one’s attack would also beco greater.
During a battle, other than sense of sight, a player also heavily relied on their sense of hearing and touch. Through listening to the noise produced by an attack, players could predict the general trajectory of the attack. The vibrations generated when an attack collided with air would also produce an impact, and by feeling this impact with their bodies, players could then take appropriate asures.
However, Sumr Sunshine’s soundless attack was extrely hard to defend against.
Originally, launching a soundless attack was already beyond the capabilities of ordinary n. However, Sumr Sunshine’s every single action was actually soundless. His movents dispersed practically no energy at all. This was already a realm that could not be reached by humans.
“Just who is he?” At a distance, Fire Dance, who was battling while watching Shi Feng’s battle at the sa ti, was inwardly shocked when she saw Sumr Sunshine’s attack. She felt that it was simply inconceivable.
Sumr Sunshine fully embodied the class known as Assassin, and this was exactly what Fire Dance had been pursuing all along.
Originally, Fire Dance had thought Shi Feng was belittling her strength too much, which was why he had barred her from fighting against Sumr Sunshine. Now, however, it would seem that Shi Feng’s decision was indeed correct.
The gap between Fire Dance and Sumr Sunshine was simply unimaginable. If they fought, she did not possess even the slightest chance at securing victory.
Sure enough, he really is a monster. Shi Feng inwardly sighed when he saw Sumr Sunshine charging at him.
He finally understood why Sumr Sunshine was capable of standing at the peak of God’s Domain.
After experiencing a decade of battles, Shi Feng had only managed to achieve a soundless attack after much difficulty. Even so, not every move of his could achieve such a state of soundlessness. Yet, every single action of the Assassin before him was actually soundless. The gap between them was simply unfathomable.
Shi Feng knew that he was currently not a match for Sumr Sunshine at all.
If he was not Silenced nor in a Weakened state, he might possess a chance of contending against Sumr Sunshine. If he had to rely on pure techniques, however, there was simply no chance for him to win.
If this fight took place in reality, it was highly possible that Shi Feng would have been defeated by Sumr Sunshine in just a single move.
Although Shi Feng knew that he was not a match for Sumr Sunshine, for reasons unknown, there was a sense of joy filling Shi Feng’s heart right now.
“Co!”
Shi Feng no longer held back. He used Void Steps again and charged at Sumr Sunshine.
Void Steps placed a severe burden on its user’s ntal power. At this mont, however, Shi Feng couldn’t care less. If he did not use Void Steps, then he would only last a few moves against Sumr Sunshine. Since he was going to lose either way, he might as well take the final plunge.
After Shi Feng disappeared, even though Sumr Sunshine hesitated for a slight mont, he still responded very quickly. With a twist of his feet, he suddenly swept the dagger in his hand to his side.
Everyone was greatly surprised, confused at just what the Assassin was trying to do.
However, when the dagger was halfway through its course, sparks were generated as the weapon was abruptly stopped in its path. Imdiately after, Shi Feng’s figure was revealed.
Before anyone could react, Shi Feng used Void Steps and disappeared from everyone’s sight once more.
For a ti, everyone watched as Sumr Sunshine continuously brandished his daggers, creating dazzling sparks with every swing he made.
Those who were ill-inford would think that Sumr Sunshine had gone insane. However, everyone present knew that the Assassin was currently fighting Shi Feng. Moreover, it was obvious that the Sumr Sunshine currently held the upper hand in this fight.
A battle of such level thoroughly stunned everyone present. Compared to this battle happening right before them, the videos spread on the forums showing the battles of experts were just complete and utter garbage.
Presently, everyone had even forgotten about their own battles. All their attention was focused on the battle between Sumr Sunshine and Shi Feng.
“This is bad.” Fire Dance grew anxious when she looked at Shi Feng, who was currently in battle.
The strain Void Steps put on its user’s ntal power was no laughing matter. Previously, when Shi Feng had used Void Steps multiple tis against a Chieftain ranked monster, his spirit ended up in an exhausted state. Despite his HP still being full back then, he did not have the energy to even move his body.
As the battle continued to drag on, Shi Feng could feel himself almost reaching his limit. Suddenly, he pulled a distance away from Sumr Sunshine.
“You’re really good. You are the first person capable of fighting against for such a long amount of ti. However, that move of yours should be placing a huge burden on your ntal power, right? I wonder just how many more moves you can handle?” Despite having gone through such an intense battle, Sumr Sunshine still displayed a calm and indifferent expression on his face.
Shi Feng did not give a reply. At this mont, his complexion was deathly pale, and even speaking had beco an extrely exhausting task.
“It seems that you don’t have much energy left. Let’s finish things then. Ever since entering God’s Domain, nobody has ever seen this move of mine, and you will be the first one to do so,” saying so, Sumr Sunshine’s expression turned serious. The killing intent he had kept hidden all this ti suddenly exploded like a volcano, suffocating all those who felt it.
Sumr Sunshine was like a ferocious beast that had escaped its cage. In the next mont, his figure dashed towards Shi Feng.
However, when Sumr Sunshine was halfway to reaching Shi Feng, his body suddenly vanished. Imdiately after, he reappeared behind Shi Feng, his dagger tightly held in a reverse grip as he swung it down towards Shi Feng’s back.
Suddenly, the spectators of the battle were stunned.
“Does he know Void Steps as well?” Fire Dance said in shock.
“No,” Violet Cloud said. “That’s Second Acceleration.”
Violet Cloud had previously witnessed War Wolf using Second Acceleration to attack many tis before.
Void Steps was a footwork that caused the opponent to ignore the user’s very existence. Even if the opponent was able to see the user, their brains would still categorize this information as useless and promptly ignore it. However, Second Acceleration was a trick used to fool a person’s eyes. Overall, it was a technique inferior to Void Steps.
However, War Wolf had used Second Acceleration on his attack, whereas Sumr Sunshine had used Second Acceleration on his movents. It was clear that Sumr Sunshine’s technique was several levels above War Wolf.
anwhile, Shi Feng was feeling extrely weak. He was simply unable to block or dodge Sumr Sunshine’s soundless attack.
At this mont, although Shi Feng had discovered Sumr Sunshine’s attack, he was already close to exceeding his ntal limit. His bodyfelt extraordinarily heavy. Even if he tried to defend using the Abyssal Blade right now, it was simply impossible for him to keep up with Sumr Sunshine’s speed.
Is this the end?
The mont before the attack was about to hit him, Shi Feng could not help but have such a thought.
No!
He definitely could not let it end here!
He still needed to reach even greater heights! He definitely could not be defeated here!
I need to block it!
I must block it!
My movents need to be faster! Much faster!
At this mont, Shi Feng was wholeheartedly trying to make his movents much faster and more precise. However, he no longer possessed the energy to control the other parts of his body. He could only use the most conservative way he could think of to block Sumr Sunshine’s attack.
At this mont, Shi Feng’s mind had already forgotten to think, his body forgetting to breathe.
When there were only a few centiters left between Sumr Sunshine’s dagger and Shi Feng’s body, the Abyssal Blade in Shi Feng’s hand suddenly slid into the snow-bright dagger.
Dang!
The impact of the two weapons caused the snow-bright dagger’s trajectory to shift, and as a result, the dagger only brushed past Shi Feng’s body...
