The Strongest Sword God Reincarnation
Chapter 72. Demon Hunters

The sky was still dark as the moon lay hidden, high in the air.

Inside the Library located in the slums of Red Leaf Town...

"Adventurer, if you have no problem, then walk to the center of the magic circle. There would be a bit of pain after the ceremony started, so just hold it, and it would end," Sharlyn pointed towards the center of the altar made of black stone. His eyes carried a hint of excitement as he was finally able to begin this experiment.

Shi Feng was completely unaware of Sharlyn's thoughts. He nodded as he walked into the magic circle.

No matter how he put it, Sharlyn was a main character who had a Tier 3 Job, so there should be no difficulty. As for the pain he had to suffer, he did not think about it.

During battles within the God's Domain, a player could feel the same pain when attacked by monsters. However, the majority of players still chose to accept this kind of arrangement. Their goal is to increase their sense of realism, so that they do not adjust the transmission of pain to 0%. More importantly, they wanted to improve their skills in battle.

There's an old saying that "keep the stick and pamper the kid." Only with pain will one be able to remember the lessons, and only by learning the lessons can one further improve. Therefore, if one wished to grow within the God's Domain, learning to accept such pain was a definite must.

However, given each player's tolerance, the God's Domain regulated the transmission of pain by 20% by default. However, some experts will adjust the transmission to 60%, allowing them to be more alert. Meanwhile, Shi Feng himself had adjusted it to 50%. This was an already ordinary level of pain for him, and it was the best amount to show his strength.

After standing in position, Shi Feng sent a nod towards Sharlyn, indicating that he could begin the ceremony.

Descendants of the Moon Goddess!

Sharlyn began her prayer; the divine mantra left her mouth as her fingers traced through the sacred texts. Line after line of divine text floated in the air and towards the horizon. Compared to the Tier 3 magic from before, the sacred texts written in this ceremony were numerous.

Even after writing hundreds of lines, Sharlyn showed no signs of stopping. Sweat had already started dripping from Sharlyn's face, clearly indicating that she was a bit tired. Meanwhile, the magic circle on the ground began to emit a dazzling silvery light, the magic circle itself slowly rose into the air.

After more than ten minutes had passed, a beam of moonlight shone onto Shi Fengs body.

Suddenly, black smoke emerged from Shi Fengs body. That black smoke was extremely reluctant to part from Shi Fengs body as he rose into the air. Meanwhile, sweat began to appear on Shi Fengs forehead. His face was deathly pale as he endured the excruciating pain.

Shi Feng almost cursed Sharlyn. It's definitely not at the level of just 'a little pain', but it's very, very painful. It was as if his limbs were being ripped from his body.

If he hadn't played God's Domain for ten years, after a long time of getting used to the pain, he might be wailing like a ghost and howling like a wolf now.

After being constantly lit by the moonlight for a few minutes, black smoke finally left Shi Fengs body. However, it doesn't just fade. Instead, it formed into a dark shadow that was a carbon copy of Shi Feng.

"Adventurer, you need to kill this demonic doppelganger to dispel the curse. I have to do the ceremony, so I can't give you any help. It's all up to you now" Sharlyn reminded.

Rather exhausted, Shi Feng used Observing Eyes on this dark shadow.

[Ye Feng (Doppelganger Devil)] (Elite Level)

Level 4's

HP 2000/2000

"An Elite?" Shi Fengs facial sharpness turned serious.

The demonic doppelganger did not possess much HP, and its level was similar to his. If this doppelganger did not possess such a powerful skill, then dealing with it would not be a big deal. However, the possibility is very slim.

"Throwing Fallen Motherfucker! Insultant man! Do you think that by using a complete Moon Slash to weaken my strength, you will be able to defeat me? I will tell you the reason why a lowly human like you will never win against us strong demons!" The demonic doppelganger had an angry expression as he pulled the black long sword, slashing it at Shi Feng.

In the blink of an eye, the doppelganger arrived before Shi Feng. A faint black beam followed as he waved his long sword. In an instant, a black beam of it turned into four lines, all of them threatening to cut Shi Feng into blocks of flesh.

Incredible conditions!

Shi Feng was extremely shocked when he saw such an action. This speed far exceeded that of a normal Elite. Immediately, Shi Feng used a Stalk.

_Dang, Dang, Dang..._

Shi Feng retreated a few steps before he stabilized his body.

"Die You!" Despite having power, the demonic doppelganger did not give Shi Feng any chance. He used Shi Fengs Slash; his sword pierced through Shi Fengs heart.

Shi Feng immediately activated Wind Walk, his body suddenly dodging to the side as he distanced himself from the demonic doppelganger.

After missing his attack, the doppelganger turned his head, using Wind Walk as well to chase after Shi Feng.

Regarding Strength, speed, and HP, the demonic doppelganger held the majority of the advantages. Moreover, the doppelganger also possessed the same Skills as Shi Feng. It was an extremely unfavorable situation for Shi Feng.

Seeing that he was going after Shi Feng, the demonic doppelganger revealed a cruel smile, saying, "I know whatever you know. Moreover, my power is greater than yours. You have no chance of defeating me, so be nice and wait for your death. This is your destiny."

"Then do you know this move?" Shi Feng revealed a faint smile. Nine sword illusions appeared beside him, and with a crashing sound, the nine of them shot towards the demonic doppelganger.

Although the doppelganger could block most of the attacks, some Hell Blade illusions still managed to pierce through his body. Each attack from the illusions inflicted more than -30 damage to the doppelganger.

"Dear man, you're just relying on the power of your weapon. I will tell you that all your efforts will be in vain," said as such, the doppelganger dashed before Shi Feng and used a Lightning Glint.

As the flash of the sword came, Shi Feng calmly smiled as he took out two scrolls from his bag; one of them was a Speed Scroll, while the other was a Polymorph Scroll. In an instant, Shi Fengs speed suddenly increased, dodging to the side and dodging the attacks from the Lightning Flashes. At the same time, he turned that demonic doppelganger into a sheep.

After turning him into a sheep, Shi Feng immediately slashed at him with his sword.

Lightning Flashes!

Unable to dodge, the demonic doppelganger received all three sword flashes. As a result, Shi Fengs Level 5 Attack Flashes caused three terrifying damage from -112, -135, -163.

The demonic doppelganger was furious when he activated the Defense Blade. With his attack range greatly increased, he immediately slashed his sword at Shi Feng. This man is too despicable. He actually used an unsightly method like turning it into a sheep.

"Hehe, and here I wonder how powerful the devil is. You obviously have a stronger body than me, but, you still use the same skills as me. I guess your standards are only at this level," Shi Feng scoffed as he dodged the incoming attack.

"You're looking to die!" A single sentence from Shi Feng nearly caused the demonic doppelganger to faint in anger. He sent a Double Slash around Shi Feng's neck.

Shi Feng aimed the Blade of Hell at the demonic doppelganger, and in an instant, nine pitch-black chains appeared and bound him, limiting him for three seconds.

Illusion Killing!

Simultaneously, both the original and the doppelganger activated the Defense Blade, and both of them began an attack on the demonic doppelganger.

Lightning Flashes, Slashes, Earth Splitters, Double Slashes, and many other skills attacked the demon doppelganger. In addition to the continuous attacks from the Nine Dragons Incisions, the HP of that demonic doppelganger decreased drastically, dropping to 10% in a few moments.

"So what if you have a strong physique? So what if you knew all my Skills? And so what if you were a demon?!" Shi Feng demanded that he pierce the chest of the demonic doppelganger. Meanwhile, the demonic doppelganger could only grit his teeth, grimacing in pain; anger burned within.

The moment the bounding binder was released, he would be able to handle Shi Feng properly. However, just as he was about to bring out his special ability, the demonic doppelganger saw the scroll in Shi Fengs hand. Suddenly, the demonic doppelganger was completely desperate.

"Goodbye!" Shi Feng waved his hand at the demonic doppelganger. He knew that the demon doppelganger was going to show his hand, so he had activated a Tier 1 Magic Scroll in his hand.

Bombardier Rumbles!

This Tier 1 Magic Scroll was capable of dealing - 500 damage to a single enemy that was below Level 20. It was more than enough to deal with a demonic doppelganger that currently had less than 200 HP.

Suddenly, a green rumble fell from the sky above. It caused -500 damage to the demonic doppelganger, instantly turning it into black smoke and vanishing. He also left behind a piece of dark gray-colored equipment.
