"How is her power so strong?"
Qi Huang and Sha Gu stared at the twenty Blood God Guards who had been knocked back, their faces full of shock and disbelief.
The Blood God Guards' strength after transformation was comparable to Grand Lords of the same level in the Thunder God Secret Realm. Even when they had gone all out with high-tier combat techniques, they could barely match them in raw power.
But what about Weiyang Qianhen?
Qi Huang had personally fought Weiyang Qianhen before and knew full well how powerful her Mana Edge was. It was still far from matching a Grand Lord of the same level — roughly on par with her own strength at best.
Yet now Weiyang Qianhen had emerged from the side hall and was in no way inferior to the Blood God Guards in power. Not only that, she had merged forty Mana Edges in pairs, instantly blasting away twenty Blood God Guards.
The leap in both power and combat proficiency compared to before entering the side hall was staggering — like an entirely different person.
While Qi Huang and Sha Gu were merely shocked, the experts from every major superpower present were struck dumb with astonishment. Even Biluo Wuqing's eyes nearly bulged out of his head.
"Who on earth is she?" Biluo Wuqing stared fixedly at Weiyang Qianhen, his mind racing to search for any memory of her. But no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't find a single match — not even anyone remotely similar.
One strike to repel twenty Blood God Guards!
Keep in mind that all of them — the top experts from every superpower — had been thoroughly suppressed by these same twenty Blood God Guards moments ago. Yet Weiyang Qianhen alone had overpowered all twenty.
And he had seen it clearly: the magical technique Weiyang Qianhen used was power fusion.
He knew this technique himself and understood full well its difficulty. At his level, controlling four or five fused attacks was the absolute limit. But Weiyang Qianhen had just unleashed twenty at once. She was a monster.
"Is this her true strength?" Shi Feng watched Weiyang Qianhen command her Mana Edges, and even he couldn't help but feel a jolt of shock.
The Thunder God set had restored Weiyang Qianhen's level to Tier One, and combined with the boost from a set of Thunder Demon Stones, the magical power she wielded approached that of a Grand Lord of the same level. But it absolutely shouldn't have been enough to let a top-tier expert control twenty power-fused attacks — even he himself couldn't pull that off.
However, when he recalled that in his previous life, Weiyang Qianhen had risen to become the number one figure on the Expert Power Rankings in the Divine Realm — defeating a Tier Six God-ranked player as a Tier Five Class holder and creating a legend that shook the entire Divine Realm — such a thing suddenly didn't seem so hard to understand after all.
But even as Weiyang Qianhen grew stronger, it only fueled the excitement and fervor of Qi Huang, Sha Gu, and the others.
The massive level boost from entering the side hall alone had been almost impossible to believe. To think that someone could emerge with such a dramatic increase in actual combat power?
It made them crave the Thunder God Key even more.
"Kill them! I don't care what it costs — take them down!" Qi Huang stared deathly at Lunhui, his eyes wild with frenzy as he roared the order.
With that, Qi Huang began chanting his most powerful spell, while Sha Gu charged straight at Lunhui, leading the charge.
Once the twenty Blood God Guards received the order to stop at nothing, their expressions turned equally frenzied. The black mist wreathing their bodies surged violently, the imposing aura they radiated intensifying by several degrees. They transformed into black shadows and hurtled toward Shi Feng and the others.
Their speed had clearly increased by more than thirty percent compared to before, and their reaction times had sharpened dramatically as well. Facing Weiyang Qianhen's attacks, these Blood God Guards now had the leeway to deflect her strikes — and even dodge them entirely.
"How did their movement speed and reaction time increase so much?"
Weiyang Qianhen could clearly feel that the Blood God Guards' strength had jumped another level. The sensation was reminiscent of the leap from Tier Zero to Tier One. Their base stats hadn't increased, but their physical constitution had undergone a qualitative transformation. With the Blood God Guards boosted to this degree, dealing with them was going to be far more difficult.
"Damn it! These Blood God Guards weren't even fighting seriously against us before!"
The experts from the various superpowers who had rushed over to help stared at the Blood God Guards whose power had risen yet again, their faces darkening with fury.
Humiliation!
