Chapter 1 Leiming Temple

Outside Leiming Temple, hundreds of players gathered at the main entrance of the temple.

An ordinary player would be shocked to see so many players, as they were all level 77 or higher. That level could easily place them in the top three within a kingdom, or the top twenty within an empire.

Yet here were hundreds of these players gathered together, divided into several groups, with over a hundred guarding the main entrance and confronting the other groups outside.

Any expert from God's Domain would have been stunned to see this.

These groups were made up of renowned experts from various super forces, including a large number of top-tier players. Yet they were all being blocked outside Leiming Temple, unable to enter the main hall.

"Qi Huang! We've given Seven Sins Flowers enough face. We've let you occupy the main hall for this long. Now that five super forces have gathered here, isn't it a bit much for you to keep hogging it?" Xuan Jing, the vice hall master of Holy Law Palace, said coldly to Qi Huang.

"Seven Sins Flowers has an important task. Once it's completed, we will naturally not obstruct you. But if you want to force your way in now, you are welcome to try," Qi Huang said indifferently, glancing at Xuan Jing.

As Qi Huang spoke, twenty players wearing crimson emblems beside her stepped forward. Their bodies were shrouded in a faint black mist, as if they were incarnations of darkness, emitting a terrifying aura that sent chills down the spine.

With the appearance of these twenty players, the faces of the experts from the super forces present turned grim.

"Blood God Guards?" Xuan Jing frowned, looking at the twenty experts wearing crimson emblems on the high platform.

The main hall of Leiming Temple in the Leishen Secret Realm not only contained dungeons, but also served as a place to accept quests and exchange items.

Previously, the twenty-plus members of Holy Law Palace were helpless against Seven Sins Flowers, who occupied the main hall. But now, the five super forces had gathered over a hundred people, outnumbering Seven Sins Flowers.

However, the Blood God Guards were renowned among these super forces.

These Blood God Guards had made a name for themselves during a great battle in the Western Continent. A newly emerged super force had hired Seven Sins Flowers to participate in a contest for an important town against the super guild Roson Gate.

Roson Gate Guild was no weaker than the Battle Wolf Guild, belonging to the upper-middle tier of super guilds. However, that battle involving hundreds of thousands of players was brought to an end by the Blood God Guards of Seven Sins Flowers. The vice president and top experts commanding Roson Gate were all wiped out by the Blood God Guards.

At the time, there were as many as five thousand experts guarding the vice president of Roson Gate, including four monsters with Domains and over a dozen top experts. Yet they were all killed by a hundred Blood God Guards...

The name of the Blood God Guards spread throughout the super forces, making everyone even more wary of Seven Sins Flowers.

Although there were only twenty Blood God Guards present, and the super forces had hundreds of members, all at least at the Refinement Realm, she didn't have much confidence in dealing with them.

"Vice Hall Master, although these Blood God Guards are strong, we may not be without a chance. If we wait any longer, more and more super forces will enter the Leishen Secret Realm, and our advantage will be gone," said Bi Luo Wuqing, the Gale Sword Master, standing beside her.

The Blood God Guards were indeed famous, but that was a month ago. Now, the super forces had obtained more and more epic-level items, as well as more and more combat techniques and special inheritances. Their strength had improved far beyond what it was a month ago.

Moreover, besides Holy Law Palace, other experts with Domains from the other four super forces had also come. Even if they couldn't defeat the Blood God Guards, they could hold them back without any problem. At that time, Xuan Jing and the others could enter the main hall to find out what was going on.

"Alright, let everyone move!" Xuan Jing understood the situation. Delaying any longer would only diminish Holy Law Palace's advantage.

"Leave it to me!" Bi Luo Wuqing said with a smile.

As one of the Eight Great Sword Masters, he had greatly improved during this time, mastering a Bronze-level combat technique. He was confident that he could fight Jiu Xiao Longyun, the Sword Maniac who had mastered a Domain. Facing the Blood God Guards, most of whom were only at the Refinement Realm, was not a problem at all.

With Holy Law Palace taking the lead, hundreds of people from the super forces rushed towards the main hall with Bi Luo Wuqing.

"Overestimating yourselves!" Qi Huang said calmly, watching the hundreds of experts above the Refinement Realm rushing up. "Blood God Guards, listen to my order, kill them all!"

The moment Qi Huang finished speaking, the twenty Blood God Guards were like tigers released from their cages. Their eyes were filled with madness, and the black mist around their bodies surged, causing their bodies to grow taller. Black scales and spikes emerged all over their bodies, and a blood-colored gem appeared between their eyebrows. They were no longer human players, and their terrifying aura was like that of demons from the abyss.

"What's going on?"

The experts from the super forces were filled with questions as they watched the sudden transformation of the Blood God Guards.

Players in the Leishen Secret Realm were unable to use any burst skills, but the Blood God Guards were now exuding a powerful aura, and the dark energy they emitted even made them feel palpitations.

Before the experts from the super forces could react, the twenty Blood God Guards left behind afterimages and instantly appeared in front of Bi Luo Wuqing and the others.

One of the level 77 Blood God Guard Berserkers slashed at Bi Luo Wuqing with his blade. The attack was simple and swift, without any unnecessary movements or any trace of emotion, as if he were a born killing machine.

"It won't be that easy to stop me!"

Bi Luo Wuqing directly used the Bronze-level combat technique, Flash Void, that he had just learned.

Instantly, three sword lights transformed into a dazzling starlight that flashed past, directly colliding with the Blood God Guard's battle blade.

Boom!

The sound of the weapons colliding echoed throughout the hall.

The Blood God Guard couldn't help but take two steps back, his eyes showing a hint of surprise, while Bi Luo Wuqing himself took half a step back.

"How is this possible?" Bi Luo Wuqing looked at the Blood God Guard in front of him, his heart filled with shock.

Flash Void, as a Bronze-level combat technique, could fuse three forces into one. Although it couldn't increase strength by 300%, it could increase it by about 240%, which he had tested.

However, even with a strength increase of more than two times, the Blood God Guard's strength was only slightly weaker than his.

In other words, if he hadn't used Flash Void, he would have been the one sent flying.

It should be known that using Bronze-level combat techniques consumed a lot of stamina and mental strength. Even for him, the maximum number of times he could use it was only six or seven times.

At this time, not only Bi Luo Wuqing was shocked, but the experts from the super forces present were also frightened by the strength of the Blood God Guards. Several experts in the Refinement Realm had already been killed before the healers could react.

"Did you think that having more people would allow you to deal with the Blood God Guards? How foolish!" Qi Huang looked at Xuan Jing and the others, who were in a stalemate, with disdain.

The Blood God Guards were already extremely difficult to deal with outside the Leishen Secret Realm. Even experts who had mastered a Domain had to put in a lot of effort. And in the Leishen Secret Realm, even she found the Blood God Guards troublesome. How could those top experts from the super forces be their opponents?

Just as the super forces were being defeated, ten figures suddenly appeared from a side hall, causing everyone present to look over.

"Why are there other players here?"

"They came out of the side hall, who are they?"

Just as the experts from the super forces were feeling strange, Qi Huang and Sha Gu, who were standing at the entrance of the hall, were staring at these ten figures.

"You couldn't hold out any longer, huh? Today is the day you die!" Sha Gu licked his lips and said excitedly, "Activate the magic array, this time we must not let them enter the dungeon again!"

Suddenly, second-tier assassins who had been lying in ambush next to the side hall appeared and used Blood Demon Seals.

The Blood Demon Seals enveloped Shi Feng and the others, and even the experts from the super forces were also enveloped. However, this time, the barrier of the entire magic array completely blocked Shi Feng and the others from the side hall dungeon. Unless they broke the magic array, they would not be able to escape into the side hall.

"You escaped last time, but this time I'm going to have some fun with you!" Sha Gu saw that the magic array had been sealed off, and his gaze shifted to Shi Feng and the others again. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the levels of Lun Hui and the others and couldn't help but gasp, "Level 81! You... How is your level possible..."
