Great! The gray chicken is saved!

As the wooden stake burst apart, the bustling Wooden Stake Arena instantly fell silent.

Everyone stared blankly at the Ancient-Grade Earth-Fire Lava Turtle stake, which had shattered into dust from a single throwing knife casually tossed by Qin Feng.

An Ancient-Grade wooden stake with one hundred billion durability!

The Earth-Fire Lava Turtle stake!

It came with ninety thousand times damage reduction!

Yet, it was instantly killed by Shadow?

The crucial part was that it wasn't a difficult instant kill, nor was it a burst after multiple consecutive attacks; instead, it was…

A simple, ordinary throwing dart, with no preamble whatsoever!

“Hiss! One, two, three, four… twelve digits! One more digit than a phone number!”

“This Ancient-Grade wooden stake’s original highest single-hit damage was dealt by Ghost Spirit, just over one hundred million. Yet, Shadow directly hit one hundred billion?”

“The most important thing is that Shadow just used a casual, ordinary throwing knife!”

“If that great master goes all out, what level of damage could he achieve?”

“It seems, at least, it would be in the trillions…”

Everyone in the arena was shocked.

Hei Bu Lin Da Li Zi, who had been expecting to be 'trampled' by Qin Feng on the leaderboard, rode her large white goose, flying in the sky, her eyes wide.

This was more than just trampling her on the leaderboard; this was obliterating the leaderboard itself!

When everyone finally came to their senses, they found that Shadow, who had been in the arena, had already vanished without a trace.

“Truly a divine dragon, seen only by its head, never its tail…”

“He hasn’t appeared for so long, and then suddenly he hits us with something so fierce…”

“My heart can’t take it, boo hoo hoo, our sixty-person guild attacking for an entire night can’t even deal as much damage as he did with a single casual throwing knife!!”

“I originally thought Ghost Spirit was terrifying enough, but I never expected there to be someone even more terrifying…”

“How did this damage get so high???”

“No, I suddenly thought of the movie I just watched… That Ancient-Grade Eight-Headed Serpent, Shadow actually fought it for three days?”

“I originally thought Shadow was so cool in the movie, but now it seems I’ve insulted Shadow!!”

…

In the Wooden Stake Arena within the Magic City Ruins, Qin Feng’s casual strike made him a legend on Blue Star.

Although he was already widely recognized as Blue Star's most terrifying player…

The damage he dealt in this appearance once again refreshed the global players' understanding of him!

And this also plunged some of Great Xia’s strongest players, who had originally thought they could narrow the gap with Qin Feng, into despair once more!

An Yu, Hei Bu Lin Da Li Zi, Jinling’s Flying Dragon Commodore… and others. These players, after obtaining Qin Feng’s Legendary equipment, experiencing a surge in combat power, and developing on their own, all thought they had caught up a bit.

After all, for most of the recent period, Qin Feng had been in a gray-named state, and no one knew what he was doing…

But all in all, there had been no global announcements recently about Qin Feng killing any BOSS.

Without killing BOSS, it's hard to improve and get stronger, right?

But they never expected…

This time Qin Feng appeared, he left them even further behind!

Especially Brother Beidou, 'You Are Already Dead,' the Inner Force Fist Master, who stood on site, looking at the exploded Ancient-Grade wooden stake with a bitter smile.

Once upon a time, he could even make a bet with Shadow, or attack Qin Feng.

Now…

In front of Shadow, he was completely insignificant!

“Where did the great master go to develop?!”

This question became an unsolvable mystery that countless people couldn't figure out!

Could it be that Shadow had been grinding small monsters all these days?!

…

About seven thousand kilometers west of the Magic City Ruins, there is a volcanic cluster, shrouded in black smoke from sky to ground, making it hard to distinguish between volcanic ash and mist.

In less than two minutes, Qin Feng traveled from the Magic City Ruins, crossing countless leveling areas along the way, to reach this volcanic cluster.

This is where the 'Mysterious Middle-Parted Youth' discovered the fragmented Earth-Fire Lava Turtle component.

It was a shattered lava turtle shell, appearing in this place, picked up by the Mysterious Middle-Parted Youth's friend, and sold to him.

And this volcanic cluster area, in the God Forsaken Game, is called 'Lava Volcano,' enveloped in a black mist, already a depleted area with a hundred thousand times life flow rate!

Ordinary players wouldn't dare to stay in this place.

To just wander in and pick up a 'shattered lava turtle shell' was pure luck among luck, not much different from winning the lottery…

Thinking about the journey, Qin Feng felt a little emotional.

He was too fast; no one along the way could even detect him flying overhead, but he perceived everyone and every scene he passed.

After all, his furthest perception range reached four to five thousand kilometers.

“Currently, the average level of players in the Magic City Ruins is 25-30.”

“The highest-level players are around level 35.”

“Only Ghost Spirit has reached level 40.”

This development speed was already many times faster than Qin Feng remembered from his previous life.

One must know that in his previous life, the Shanghai Official only killed the Level 30 Epic-grade BOSS Great Calamity Underworld King two years after the God Forsaken Game descended.

With four months of normal development, Level 25 was already considered an expert.

Reaching Level 30 in a year was already a top player.

But because of the help Qin Feng provided, the Great Xia Official’s development speed surged, which also radiated to the Great Xia populace, allowing most Great Xia players to obtain better equipment and skill books, thus dramatically increasing their leveling speed.

“Currently, it seems the average level of Great Xia players is 5 to 10 levels higher than players in most other countries.”

As time passed, regional disparities had already become apparent.

In a while, any random Great Xia player would be a top-tier expert, even a peak-level powerhouse, if placed abroad…

At this moment.

Qin Feng arrived at this Lava Volcano cluster, and his Original Shadow Perception spread out, instantly taking in the situation.

This continuous volcanic cluster was the habitat of the Earth-Fire Lava Turtle. Qin Feng sensed many small Earth-Fire Lava Turtles scattered throughout these volcanoes, all around Level 50 small monsters.

And deep within this habitat was a temporarily petrified gigantic Earth-Fire Lava Turtle, looking like a sculpture, but Qin Feng knew… this was the Ancient-Grade Earth-Fire Lava Turtle BOSS!

“This thing has already appeared here, but it hasn’t been unlocked because the Devastation Spread stage hasn’t arrived.”

“Occasionally, volcanic magma impacts it, washing its shattered shell fragments to the outside world…”

“Ancient-Grade materials, finding them is a profit.”

Qin Feng sensed the presence of the petrified Earth-Fire Lava Turtle and marked the location.

Should it refresh after he takes down the Fourth World Spine?

When Qin Feng released Grey Chicken.

The fellow was originally a bit dejected because it hadn't had time to find its longed-for 'Cat Head'…

But as soon as it appeared in the volcanic cluster, it suddenly became excited as if injected with chicken blood: “Great! It’s the aura of the Earth-Fire Lava Turtle! Grey Chicken is saved!”
