With a low growl from Shi Feng, the destructive power contained within the Armor of Ruin surged forth, causing the surrounding space to faintly tremble.
Flooded with the destructive power, Shi Feng himself instantly crossed into the fourth tier.
In that instant, the terrifying spatial restraints and oppressive pressure dropped by more than half, and his body could finally move.
However, Shi Feng did not feel safe because of this. On the contrary, his expression grew even more grave.
Before, when he had been completely suppressed at the third tier and unable to move, he hadn't noticed anything. But now, having stepped into the fourth tier, he discovered something terrifying.
The magic power he had sensed from Aileadi's sword strike before hadn't seemed nearly as terrifying.
But upon reaching the fourth tier, he found he had been completely wrong.
Because centered on Aileadi, within a fifty-yard radius, the magic power was as dense as steel.
After all, in the Divine Realm, magic power was generally gaseous in nature, and only in extremely dense concentrations would it reach a mist-like state. But the current situation had surpassed both mist and liquid states, reaching a solid density...
Generally in the Divine Realm, the more refined the magic power, the greater the energy it contained.
It was like comparing gaseous magic power to magic power crystallized into magic crystals — the same volume contained vastly different amounts of power.
"You have to hold!"
As Aileadi's terrifying sword strike bore down on him, Shi Feng pushed his five senses to their absolute limit, reaching an unprecedented state of concentration, and unleashed his most powerful skill — Void Sword Light — to meet it head-on.
In that instant, six streams of sword light in the void merged into a single blade phantom and struck Aileadi's greatsword.
This strike could be called the absolute pinnacle of what Shi Feng could currently demonstrate.
Even the skill's completion rate had reached 100%.
Its power was more than enough to blow away a Legendary monster of the same level, and likely even a fourth-tier NPC would be no exception.
Boom!
With an earth-shattering explosion, the entire Golden Holy Mountain seemed to shake.
A figure was sent flying from the central platform of the Golden Holy Mountain, crashing down at its base and creating a crater two to three meters deep...
"What a pity. After all the wait for a challenger with an Epic-tier magic body — if he had unlocked the magic body, he might have been able to withstand it with just fourth-tier power."
On the central platform, Aileadi gazed at where Shi Feng had disappeared, sighed softly, and then sheathed the Divine Inscription Greatsword.
But just as Aileadi was about to turn and leave, she seemed to sense something. She vanished from the central platform in a flicker and reappeared at the base of the Golden Holy Mountain, staring fixedly at the crater Shi Feng had made.
"He's not dead?"
Aileadi looked at Shi Feng struggling to stand in the crater, and for the first time showed a look of surprise on her face.
At that moment, Shi Feng walked out of the crater. His health hadn't dropped in the slightest, but the space around his body was covered in visible cracks.
These cracks were continuously repairing themselves, gradually restoring into a complete Void Barrier.
"That was close. Without the Void Shield from the Shadow Walker's Cloak, that strike would have definitely killed me." Shi Feng looked at the restored Void Barrier and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
