Chapter 1 Hot Snake Girl

The scalding magma flowed slowly across the wide open space, and the Scorching Snake Woman didn't notice the intruder, Shi Feng. She swayed her snake tail and came to the magma pool, plunging into the searing magma with a splash. She frolicked and played inside, relaxed and content.

If an ordinary player jumped into the magma pool, they would die in minutes. Even with the Blessing of the Sun, granting 100 points of fire resistance, they would still lose 300 health points per second. Few could withstand that.

Shi Feng watched for a long time, formulating a plan in his mind.

Scorching Snake Woman, High Lord, Level 25, 500,000 Health Points.

Dealing with a Lord-ranked Boss was not as easy as dealing with a Leader-ranked Boss. A typical Level 25 Lord Boss would be more than a match for even a twenty-man elite team, not to mention a hundred-man elite team.

Lord-ranked Bosses were too powerful and intimidating. Only large guilds could organize a thousand players, using a human wave tactic to overwhelm them. There was no other way.

The Scorching Snake Woman on the stone platform was even more formidable than ordinary Lords. Without the Sunfire Scripture, even a thousand players in the Fiery God Cave would still die without a chance.

Shi Feng knew a way to deal with the Scorching Snake Woman, but first, he had to clear out many elites and special elites around her. Otherwise, he would be helpless against her.

"Let's lure them out slowly and clear them out little by little." Shi Feng casually found a lone Flame Serpentman and boldly walked over, without using any other means to attract the monster.

Because Shi Feng's level was too low, only 14, facing a Level 25 elite, they would rush to attack as soon as he approached within 40 yards.

So, luring out a Flame Serpentman required some skill.

Whether it was snakes or Serpentmen, their hearing was naturally excellent. Sometimes, they would come over to investigate even the slightest movement from 40 yards away. Therefore, approaching these Serpentmen required tiptoeing, landing silently, or it would be suicide.

Walking on the soft ground, Shi Feng's steps were steady and nimble. He easily attracted the attention of a Flame Serpentman, who then rushed towards Shi Feng like a madman.

"Come on, come on!" Shi Feng smiled when he saw the Serpentman take the bait and turned to run towards the distant rock wall.

The most dangerous thing about the Scorching Serpentman was not its ranged attack but its close combat. Its ranged attack was the Roar of Fury, a channel-type magic with a range of 40*4 yards. Its power was stronger than that of the Lava Hound, with a casting time of 3 seconds. But this posed no threat to Shi Feng. Close combat, on the other hand, was very troublesome.

During the chase, the Scorching Serpentman was fast, but so was Shi Feng. Seeing that Shi Feng had reached the rock wall and had no way to retreat, Shi Feng quickly climbed up the very steep rock wall and quietly looked down at the Scorching Serpentman, who was sticking out its red tongue.

Being looked down upon by Shi Feng's contemptuous gaze, the Scorching Serpentman became even more angry and desperately climbed up as well.

Shi Feng was not a ranged class, so he couldn't kite the Scorching Serpentman. But fighting the Scorching Serpentman in close combat was too dangerous. A slight carelessness would result in being killed in two moves. That's why Shi Feng wanted to fight at a distance.

Seeing that the Flame Serpentman was about to climb up, Shi Feng took out a Beginner Freezing Grenade from his backpack and threw it down.

With a bang, ice chips flew everywhere, and a chilling aura spread.

The Flame Serpentman was instantly frozen. Because the Flame Serpentman was afraid of the cold, it took 300 points of damage. However, this was nothing to the Flame Serpentman's 20,000 health points, not even a scratch.

However, the Flame Serpentman was frozen in mid-air, in this neither high nor low position, with hard rocks on both sides. This instantly turned the Flame Serpentman into a sandwich, making it extremely difficult for the Flame Serpentman to attack or dodge skills. It couldn't even turn around.

At this moment, Shi Feng smiled slightly, jumped down from the high rock wall, and began to attack the Flame Serpentman from behind.

Killing a Flame Serpentman who had no power to fight back was very simple.

A Level 10 Chop dealt 168 points of damage, followed by a scream. It had to be said that Level 25 elites were powerful, with level suppression and super defense. Even with the damage doubling effect of the Sunfire Scripture, it was still less than three hundred points of damage.

Then came Wind Lightning Flash, Earth Split, Double Chop, and Ember Lightning Storm.

A series of damage numbers popped up, but even with the damage amplification effect, the highest damage dealt was over two hundred points of health. Occasionally, a critical hit could exceed four hundred points, but the Flame Serpentman had 20,000 health points. Apart from the damage caused by skills exceeding one hundred, ordinary attacks dealt less than fifty points of damage. This was even with the effect of the Ice-Blue Devil Flame activated.

Seeing that the freezing time was about to end, Shi Feng threw another Beginner Freezing Grenade, freezing the Flame Serpentman again, and then continued to attack.

Although the Flame Serpentman's health regeneration speed was not slow, the damage caused by Shi Feng was not small either.

Two minutes later, the Flame Serpentman's health finally dropped to 20%. With a violent roar, its whole body suddenly burst into flames, and then it began to tremble.

Shi Feng was also prepared and immediately hid behind a corner of the rock.

Boom!

Countless flame blades shot out from the Flame Serpentman's body. These were all the Serpentman's scales and the Flame Serpentman's ultimate move, Flame Missile, which was a physical and fire-based damage. With Shi Feng's existing 1,800 health points, one hit could leave him with very little health.

However, with the black-iron-like rock blocking it, Shi Feng was completely unharmed.

After a few waves of Flame Missiles were fired, Shi Feng threw out another Freezing Grenade and continued to attack.

Finally, the Level 25 Flame Serpentman was easily killed by Shi Feng.

As soon as the Flame Serpentman died, Shi Feng's experience bar instantly increased by a small amount. Shi Feng had already reached Level 14, and the experience required to reach Level 15 was very large. The fact that it increased by a small amount showed how rich the experience was.

At this time, the Flame Serpentman also dropped two Flame Crystals, a Bronze-grade accessory, and dozens of copper coins.

Accessories were definitely the rarest equipment, even more precious than necklaces and rings. In God's Domain, each player could carry up to three accessories. Until now, Shi Feng's accessory slots were still empty. He never expected to drop a Bronze-grade accessory unintentionally. His luck was simply too good.

Heart of Scorching, Accessory, Bronze-grade, Equipment Requirement: 80 Strength, Strength +10, Agility +10, Endurance +10, Fire Resistance +3, Can activate a Level 2 Flame Shield, absorbing up to 1,000 points of fire damage.

Although this accessory did not increase much in attributes, accessories that could increase resistance were even rarer in God's Domain. Each one was worth more than 6 gold.

"Great, I'm Level 14 now, with 114 Strength and 131 Agility. Equipping this Heart of Scorching will increase both Strength and Agility by 10 points, just enough to meet the requirements of the Blazing Starfire, 120 Strength and 140 Agility." Shi Feng held the fiery red Heart of Scorching in his hands, extremely excited.

He didn't expect to be able to equip a pseudo-Transcendent item so quickly. If he equipped the Blazing Starfire now, his strength would definitely become super fierce, possibly reaching the level of a Tier 1 official swordsman.
