Reincarnation Of The Strongest Sword God Chapter 3951 - 1025 - Tier 7?

“Guild Leader?”

Lunar River wasn't the only one; Hidden Soul and the rest of the group stood paralyzed, their jaws dropping as they stared at Shi Feng in pure shock.

Having ascended into a 10,000-meter-tall titan, Fist Emperor was now a legitimate Tier 7 Lifeform. Even if his martial output was limited to the level of Gold Holy Arts in this state, he remained a Tier 7 powerhouse—a realm of strength that was nearly unreachable for the vast majority of the three races.

Nevertheless, Shi Feng had not just tanked a Tier 7 combatant’s frontal assault; he had caught it using only a single hand. This display completely demolished everything they thought they knew about the Swordsman class.

“You! How is this possible?!”

Fist Emperor was equally stunned that Shi Feng had successfully intercepted his strike.

Prior to attacking, Fist Emperor had contemplated various reactions from Shi Feng, imagining he might attempt to parry, evade, or retreat. The one scenario he never envisioned was Shi Feng halting his fist with one hand without taking a single point of damage. For a brief moment, Fist Emperor questioned if his Ancestral Transformation was a failure or if a critical bug had manifested within the Main God System.

…

“He stopped a Holy Ancestor’s punch with one hand?! Just how high is his Strength Attribute?!”

Daystar, Tyrant Claw, and Morning Echo watched the scene with growing dread, horrified by the ease with which Shi Feng had neutralized the attack.

They were well aware of the sheer power behind Fist Emperor’s Ancestral Transformation, having seen it before. Under ordinary circumstances, they would be forced to activate a Pseudo-Tier 7 Skill just to survive one of those punches.

…

Away from the immediate clash, Elise and Garuda also halted their duel, their eyes wide with shock as they gazed toward Shi Feng.

Elise felt her usual stoicism vanish, replaced by utter confusion.

A strike from a Tier 7 Lifeform was an ordeal that would normally require her to cast a Pseudo-Tier 7 Spell in response. The fact that Shi Feng could catch such a blow one-handed suggested his Strength Attribute had reached an impossible, heaven-defying tier. To her knowledge, the only way Shi Feng could possess such power was through Zero Wing’s fabled Divine Blood.

While Shi Feng was away from the Eternal Realm, Zero Wing had sustained itself against the tides of war by utilizing Divine Blood and Light of Dawn Magic Bombs to protect dozens of NPC Cities.

Divine Blood granted Zero Wing’s top-tier experts Basic Attributes that rivaled or even exceeded those of Divine Set users at the same level. Meanwhile, the Light of Dawn allowed their members to unleash a barrage of Pseudo-Tier 7 attacks without the burden of Cooldowns. These assets allowed a mere handful of elite experts to hold an entire NPC City, earning Zero Wing a fearsome reputation across the three races.

If Shi Feng had activated both Divine Blood and a Legacy Berserk Skill, matching Fist Emperor’s raw Strength wasn't entirely out of the question.

…

“So what if your Strength equals mine?! You won’t leave this place alive!” Fist Emperor roared, manifesting over a dozen true doppelgangers. Together, they simultaneously unleashed Devouring Shadow, a Peak Gold Holy Art famous for pushing Attack Speed to its absolute limit.

In an instant, Fist Emperor and his clones turned into massive shadows that blurred toward Shi Feng. Their velocity was so extreme that most Tier 6 experts present couldn't even track their movements.

As the giant shadows closed in, Shi Feng drew the Shadow Incinerator and swung.

Sword’s Orbit!

The rushing shadows were abruptly halted by a blossoming wall of sword light. A second later, the shadows fractured and burst apart.

Before the onlookers could process the exchange, Fist Emperor and his clones were blasted back thousands of yards, their health bars dropping by a noticeable margin.

“Impossible! How can your speed be this high?!” Fist Emperor glared at Shi Feng, his mind reeling with uncertainty.

The Skyquake Set provided two Tier 7 Profound Skills: Ancestral Transformation and Myriad Clones. The latter allowed him to summon up to 100 true clones, each possessing 100% of his current Basic Attributes.

Though he could have summoned 100, he had limited himself to 13 clones because he could only manage 14 simultaneous activations of Devouring Shadow.

Even so, 14 instances of Devouring Shadow should have been enough to crush Garuda. Even with Lightning Transformation active, Garuda would struggle to parry more than four. Yet, Shi Feng had parried all 14 and dealt damage to Fist Emperor and his duplicates simultaneously.

“What a monster! Is Black Flame truly not ranked in the top 20?” Morning Echo cried out, her eyes widening as she watched Fist Emperor being forced back despite using his ultimate trump cards.

Fist Emperor’s Ancestral Transformation was every bit as potent as Garuda’s Lightning Transformation, and it even surpassed it in offensive potential. Yet, Shi Feng was dominating the fight with ease. This made Shi Feng appear even more formidable than Elise.

“Daystar, should we assist Fist Emperor? Or should we focus on Elise?” Tyrant Claw asked, sensing the tide turning against them.

If they didn't intervene, Garuda and Fist Emperor would eventually fall. To quickly eliminate either Elise or Shi Feng, they would need at least four experts working in tandem.

“We’ll help Garuda first. Fist Emperor has his clones; even after his transformation fades, Black Flame won't be able to kill him instantly,” Daystar decided after a quick assessment. “Besides, Elise is our primary objective. The Twilight Fortress is secondary.”

Tyrant Claw and Morning Echo signaled their agreement. While they would eventually have to deal with Shi Feng to take the fortress, Elise was the key to their future and had to be prioritized.

But before the trio could move against Elise, Shi Feng made a sudden flick with the Shadow Incinerator toward Fist Emperor.

Goddess-ranked Mana Technique, Dark Moon!

One… Two… Three…

Fourteen Dark Moons manifested in a heartbeat, tearing through the air toward Fist Emperor and his clones. Despite their desperate attempts to defend, their reflexes were too slow to catch the Dark Moons. They could only watch in terror as the blades of light sliced through them, snaking away their lives.

Daystar’s eyes bulged in disbelief as she watched Fist Emperor and his doppelgangers collapse one by one. 

Nearby, Garuda and Elise stopped their combat once more to stare at Shi Feng, their expressions filled with sheer amazement.

Elise fixed her gaze on Shi Feng’s hidden form. Seeing his information was masked, she activated a Peak Identification Skill she had acquired by luck. What she saw left her utterly stunned. “Tier… 7?”
