Chapter 383 - Blade Demon
“So, this is it, huh . ”
Reading the item’s information, Shi Feng got a general understanding of the situation . 
Even if he ran to the mountain and reached its peak, that wouldn’t mean he passed the trial .  He needed to collect all 50 Legacy Chapters to pass . 
However, now that he knew what he needed to do, this trial would be much easier to defeat . 
He just had to search for Skeleton Warriors and kill Skeleton Giants to obtain Legacy Chapters . 
So, Shi Feng began hunting around the fields for Skeleton Warriors . 
Although the swords in the sky were a nuisance, Shi Feng gradually understood their attack patterns and could dodge them more efficiently .  Soon, they were no longer much of an issue .  Even when dealing with a large group of Skeleton Warriors, these swords would nick him a few times at most, dealing negligible damage . 
After killing 12 Skeleton Giants in a row, Shi Feng discovered a problem . 
Not every Skeleton Giant would drop a Legacy Chapter .  In fact, the drop rate was very low .  After killing 12 Skeleton Giants, he only obtained two Legacy Chapters .  None of the monsters Shi Feng killed gave him any EXP, either .  He also needed to dodge the swords from above constantly .  Hunting these Skeleton Giants was truly exhausting, both physically and mentally .  If not for the fact that one of the Ten Great Saint Legacies beckoned him, Shi Feng would never tolerate such a strenuous and unrewarding task .

While Shi Feng searched for Skeleton Warriors all around the mountain, an incident occurred in White River City . 
Dark Star, a Guild that White River City had already forgotten, suddenly declared its dissolution . This news came as a great shock to everyone . Some of the Guilds who had previously allied themselves with Dark Star simultaneously announced their dissolution as well .
Originally, everyone had thought that White River City was on the path of becoming the overlord of Star-Moon Kingdom . 
However, no one could have expected the following development . 
Half a day after the dissolution of these Guilds, a Branch Guild of Overwhelming Smile suddenly appeared in White River City .  More shockingly, Lone Tyrant, who was originally the Guild Leader of Dark Star, had become the Vice-Leader that led Overwhelming Smile’s Branch Guild .  Furthermore, the benefits that Overwhelming Smile offered were impressive, at least twice as valuable as what Dark Star had previously offered .  It was a blatant display of wealth . 
The members of the dissolved Guilds promptly joined Overwhelming Smile’s White River City Branch . 
Within half a day since Overwhelming Smile’s Branch Guild’s establishment, its member count had already reached 30,000 .  Moreover, that number was still increasing .  It continuously recruited new members, thinking of ways to steal players from Zero Wing . 
“Big Sis Aqua, Overwhelming Smile thinks too little of us .  Instead of recruiting in their hometown of Maple City, they ran all the way here to fight us over members .  The Guild Leader also suddenly disappeared and cannot be contacted .  If we allow Overwhelming Smile to continue, by the time we start our recruitment tomorrow, they will have stolen all the good saplings .  Big Sis Aqua, why don’t we start recruiting right now?” Snow Goose asked anxiously .  
It had been Zero Wing’s fame that had attracted players from other cities .  Yet, now, Overwhelming Smile had come to steal the fruit of victory .  It was truly despicable . 
                            
“Overwhelming Smile is truly ambitious .  They’ve only obtained the First Clear of a large-scale Team Dungeon, yet, already, they’re hungering after White River City . ” Aqua Rose’s eyes flashed with rage .  Although she was not afraid of losing potential Guild Members, she could not stand Overwhelming Smile’s arrogant attitude .  They were clearly trying to provoke Zero Wing .  “Does Overwhelming Smile think it is so easy to weave a web in White River City? Let’s start advertising our recruitment right now! I want to see how a second-rate Guild without a Guild Residence plans to compete with Zero Wing in terms of benefits!”
Once Zero Wing began to prepare for its recruitment fervently as well, White River City exploded with activity . 
On one side, there was Overwhelming Smile, a Guild that had claimed the First Clear of a large-scale Team Dungeon and annexed Dark Star, one of the top six Guilds of White River City .  On the other side stood Zero Wing, a Guild that possessed a Guild Residence and was led by Star-Moon Kingdom’s number one expert . 
Many players on the forums were also discussing which Guild they should join . 
“Big Brother Shadow Sword, White River City is truly interesting .  Despite only being the fifth-ranking city of Star-Moon Kingdom, it is now contested over by the two most popular Guilds in the kingdom .  Which Guild do you think these independent players will join?” the female Guardian Knight, Turtledove, asked the Berserker beside her, Shadow Sword, with an amused smile on her face . 
“I don’t know what others will choose, but my goal from the very beginning has been to join Zero Wing,” Shadow Sword wasn’t interested in the competition between the two Guilds . His only thoughts right now were of passing Zero Wing’s assessment and polishing his strength by learning from the experts in Zero Wing . He also hoped to learn from Zero Wing’s Guild Leader, Black Flame . He had no interest in anything beyond that .

Meanwhile, after spending an entire day at the Origin Sword Domain, Shi Feng had collected 21 Legacy Chapters . 
“Oh? What’s that monster?” At this moment, Shi Feng, who stood at the foot of Sword Peak Mountain, discovered a monster of steel slowly descended the mountain .  This steel monster seemed to be patrolling its territory . 
Although this monster was not large, only twice as tall as Shi Feng, all four of its limbs were blades .  The rest of its body was made of pitch-black steel, decorated with spikes .  It looked like a machine of slaughter . 
                            
Although Shi Feng wanted to know this monster’s information, he only received an “Unknown” when he attempted to identify it .  Even Observing Eyes failed to yield any results .  Hence, Shi Feng had no choice but to use Omniscient Eyes . 
[Blade Demon] (Demonic Creature, Chieftain Rank)
Level 30
HP 300,000/300,000
Shi Feng’s interest suddenly grew upon discovering that the Blade Demon was a Chieftain ranked monster . 
Since the Chieftain ranked Skeleton Giant had a chance to drop Legacy Chapters, the Chieftain ranked Blade Demon before him might drop the item as well .  Fortunately, dealing with a single Blade Demon was much easier than destroying hundreds of Skeleton Warriors in addition to a Skeleton Giant . 
Moreover, the Blade Demon only had 300,000 HP .  At most, it would only be slightly stronger than the Skeleton Giants .  If so, Shi Feng could defeat it easily . 
Of course, Shi Feng would not rashly charge to his death .  The only reason he had defeated the Skeleton Giants so easily was due to the monster’s dull reactions and the aid of the swords in the sky .  On the other hand, not only was the Blade Demon a stronger monster, but it also wasn’t that large .  Shi Feng didn’t expect its reaction time to be as slow . 
If Shi Feng confronted the Blade Demon directly, he would only seek his own death .  Hence, he needed to identify the monster’s weakness . 
If it’s a Demonic Creature, then the Demon Hunter title will suppress its strength .  Let’s use the doppelganger to test things out first, then .  Thinking so, Shi Feng switched out his Might of a Thousand title for the Demon Hunter title . 
The Demon Hunter title reduced the Attributes of all darkness-type monsters within a 100-yard radius by 10% and increased Shi Feng’s damage towards darkness-type monsters by 10% .  Demonic Creatures were considered darkness-type monsters . 
Following which, Shi Feng used Phantom Kill and sent his doppelganger charging forward . 
When the doppelganger was 40 yards away from the Blade Demon, it threw the Blazing Meteor at the monster . A red glow instantly crossed the distance between the doppelganger and the Blade Demon . Just as the Blazing Meteor was about to hit the Blade Demon’s back a black streak of light flashed over, striking the Blazing Meteor out of its path .
“What? Is it that amazing? Does it not have any blind spots?” Shi Feng muttered in shock . 
Shi Feng’s doppelganger had clearly launched its attack, yet, as if the Blade Demon had eyes in the back of its head, it deflected the flying projectile .  Moreover, the Blade Demon’s reaction was astonishingly quick; the Skeleton Giants paled in comparison . 
However, Shi Feng did not believe that the Blade Demon had no blind spots . 
The doppelganger activated Windwalk and circled to the other side of the Blade Demon .  Once again, it threw the Blazing Meteor, launching a series of attacks in quick succession . 
The Blazing Meteor shot at the Blade Demon again and again .  However, no matter which angle it approached, the Blade Demon easily deflected it .  Moreover, the monster moved extremely fast, leaving afterimages wherever it passed .  In just a moment, the Blade Demon stood in front of Shi Feng’s doppelganger . 
Shua! Shua! Shua!
In the blink of an eye, the Blade Demon had launched dozens of attacks .  Despite the doppelganger having already activated Defensive Blade, the Demon broke through the skill almost instantly .  The doppelganger only managed to block a few attacks before losing its life… 
Shi Feng’s eyes widened as he watched his doppelganger’s death . 
However, after a brief moment of shock, Shi Feng suddenly discovered that the Blade Demon had not returned to its wandering after killing the doppelganger .  Instead, it turned around and charged directly at him .
