Chapter 1 Eyeing the Ghouls

The surrounding ghosts surged forth.

Shi Feng immediately activated Windwalk, his speed skyrocketing as he sprinted towards the dilapidated houses.

"Aooo!"

The elite-ranked Level 15 Ferocious Evil Spirits emitted piercing shrieks, instantly attracting even more Cursed Ghouls, completely surrounding the houses. Under the command of the Ferocious Evil Spirits, they methodically charged into the houses.

The interior of the house was small, a chaotic mess with dust flying everywhere, and the doorway could barely accommodate two people at a time.

Just as the charging Cursed Ghouls squeezed through the door.

A small, low-level Frost Grenade exploded at the entrance, icy energy spreading in all directions, freezing an area of 10 yards. Over fifty Cursed Ghouls in front of the house were frozen in place, taking 440 points of damage, reducing their health to less than half. This also prevented the other Cursed Ghouls from rushing into the room to devour Shi Feng.

The Frost Grenade could freeze targets for 5 seconds, so Shi Feng seized the opportunity to use Wind Lightning Flash, three bolts of lightning streaking out from the doorway. However, due to the significant level suppression, the total damage inflicted on a Cursed Ghoul was less than a hundred points.

System: Wind Lightning Flash proficiency increased by 3 points.

Because these Cursed Ghouls were of a high level, using skills against them increased proficiency very quickly, each time by 3 points.

Shi Feng was also waiting for the cooldown of the Frost Grenade, so he used these Cursed Ghouls to practice his skill proficiency.

Ground Splitter!

Yan Lei Burst!

One after another, area-of-effect skills struck the Cursed Ghouls. Although the damage was extremely low, the skill proficiency was rising rapidly.

After using the three skills, he threw out a Frost Grenade, instantly killing over fifty Cursed Ghouls, dropping a lot of copper coins and tiny soul essences, which transformed into a large amount of experience points.

The first wave of Cursed Ghouls was completely wiped out, and the Cursed Ghouls behind them rushed forward again.

Shi Feng then waited for the Cursed Ghouls to charge to the doorway, then threw out a Frost Grenade, freezing them again. If the skill cooldown was over, he would use skills; if not, he would wait for the Frost Grenade's cooldown before dealing with these Cursed Ghouls.

Bai Gui Town's Cursed Ghouls were countless, and the Ferocious Evil Spirits kept screaming to attract other Cursed Ghouls. The outside of the houses was already packed with Cursed Ghouls and Ferocious Evil Spirits.

Without several hundred people, it would be almost impossible to clear these monsters, but Shi Feng stayed in the houses, slowly clearing them with Frost Grenades. Although the efficiency was much slower than several hundred people, it was very safe, and he could also grind skill proficiency, a win-win situation.

Batch after batch of Cursed Ghouls died, and Shi Feng's experience points and skill proficiency were constantly increasing.

In less than five minutes, Shi Feng leveled up to Level 8.

Although he killed a large number of Cursed Ghouls, for the entire Bai Gui Town, the Cursed Ghouls killed were just a drop in the bucket.

Reaching Level 8, the experience points for killing Cursed Ghouls suddenly decreased significantly, but each one still brought 4200 experience points. The leveling speed was faster than a rocket; every time he killed a wave, the experience bar would rise a notch. If others saw this, their eyes would pop out.

It took them one or two hours of hard work to raise the experience bar by a small notch, but Shi Feng raised it every short while. The leveling speed was dozens of times faster than theirs.

As the Frost Grenades gradually decreased, the number of Cursed Ghouls also continued to decline, making the Ferocious Evil Spirits very angry. They summoned their companions even more vigorously.

Twenty minutes later, a golden light flashed on Shi Feng's body, and he leveled up to Level 9. Yan Lei Burst leveled up to Level 2, and Ground Splitter leveled up to Level 3.

Yan Lei Burst and Ground Splitter, plus the Abyss Walker's skill bonus, became Level 4 Yan Lei Burst and Level 5 Ground Splitter.

Level 4 Yan Lei Burst: Required equipment: melee weapon, action type. Deals 300 base damage to enemies within a 5-yard radius, plus Yan Lei damage, and stuns enemies for 4.5 seconds. Cooldown time: 36 seconds.

Level 5 Ground Splitter: Equipment requirement: sword. After use, deals 190 points of base damage to the target, and increases weapon damage by up to 360% based on charging time from 0.2 seconds to 3 seconds. Attack range: 10 yards. Cooldown time: 40 seconds.

The cooldowns of these two skills were reduced a lot, and their power was greatly increased. Two moves down, monsters of the same level would surely die.

But the most terrifying thing was that Shi Feng leveled up to Level 9. There wouldn't be a second Level 9 player in the entire White River City. If there was a level ranking, Shi Feng would undoubtedly be the first. The second place was still quite a distance from Level 8, so he could be said to be far ahead, and other players couldn't catch up even if they whipped their horses.

After leveling up to Level 9, Shi Feng added all his attributes to Agility, finally reaching 75 points of Agility, meeting the requirements to equip the Mithril-grade Shadow Chaser's Cape.

Equipping the Shadow Chaser's Cape increased Shi Feng's attributes a lot. Agility directly broke through 80 points. As long as it reached 100 points, he could unlock a special hidden Agility skill, greatly increasing his combat power.

In addition, Shi Feng's health also broke through to 1200 points, his movement speed reached 24, his attack speed reached 30, and he learned Silent Steps. Next time, if he encountered Jue Tian, he wouldn't let him escape so easily like last time.

Shi Feng's level reached 9, and the level suppression of the Cursed Ghouls wasn't so great anymore. Plus, the levels of Wind Lightning Flash, Ground Splitter, and Yan Lei Burst had all increased, and their power had increased a lot.

Killing Cursed Ghouls only required one Frost Grenade, plus these three consecutive strikes, and he could kill a Cursed Ghoul, saving a lot of Frost Grenades.

Afterward, he slaughtered Cursed Ghouls for more than ten minutes, and Shi Feng's experience bar rose to 9 level 36%. As long as he killed for another hour, he would definitely be able to level up to Level 10. Unfortunately, more than 70% of the Cursed Ghouls on the entire street had been killed by Shi Feng. Those Ferocious Evil Spirits finally couldn't hold back, roared in anger, and wanted to take action themselves to end Shi Feng.

The other Cursed Ghouls were so frightened that they hurriedly cleared a path for the Ferocious Evil Spirits.

Immediately, a dozen extremely ferocious-looking Ferocious Evil Spirits rushed towards the houses, wanting to tear Shi Feng into pieces.

Ferocious Evil Spirit, Elite, Level 15, Health 5000.

Compared to Cursed Ghouls, they were not only larger and stronger in attack power, but also extremely fast, like ghosts. They also had many powerful close-range skills, plus a natural 70% physical immunity and 30% physical evasion. The 5000 health points were enough to easily kill any melee class of the same level. Moreover, magic damage was only increased by 50%, and the damage effect of magic of the same attribute decreased by 50% each time, even making mage-type classes feel helpless.

But these were not the most terrifying things.

After the first evolution of God's Domain, ordinary monsters after Level 10 would have good intelligence, and elites like these Level 15s would have very high intelligence, greatly increasing their combat power when fighting.

In the previous life, the people of Divine Glory were killed by these Ferocious Evil Spirits. Divine Glory paid the price of hundreds of lives to kill these Ferocious Evil Spirits.

"Have they finally come?"

Looking at the Ferocious Evil Spirits rushing in, Shi Feng appeared very calm.

In fact, Shi Feng had always wanted to know, if these high-intelligence monsters in God's Domain encountered players whose strength far exceeded theirs, what kind of reaction would they have?
