At the instant Nie Yan disappeared, everyone's heart clenched.

In the shadows, Nie Yan was the undisputed king.

Catching his trail was indeed no easy feat.

In the name of the Crazy Thief!

Nie Yan's attack had to be a sure kill, with absolutely no room for failure!

"Everyone, attack!" Hao Tian shouted, his subordinates rushing forward. However, he hesitated, a sense of unease creeping into his heart due to Nie Yan's sudden disappearance. Could Nie Yan be targeting him? He was already losing courage before the battle even began.

Hundreds of Bi Luo Cang Qiong players were scattered around, forming a solid defensive line. Hao Tian himself was located in the heart of these players, making it seem impossible for even the Crazy Thief Nie Yan to pose a threat to him!

"Priests, cast Light!"

"Paladins, use Divine Sight!"

The Bi Luo Cang Qiong members shouted nervously. Beams of light shot into the sky, and the white light streamed down as they searched for Nie Yan's location.

"There!"

A priest spotted a figure five yards away, but before he could react, or any of the other players could make a move, a shadow brushed past him. He took a step back in fear, feeling as if a dagger had sliced across his throat.

A sense of being deprived of life washed over him. The priest touched his throat; it was intact. It had just been his imagination.

As Nie Yan passed by the priest, the dagger in his hand swept within a few centimeters of his throat.

Nie Yan had only given him a chilling sensation and hadn't attacked him. If he had, Nie Yan's stealth would have been broken.

This intimidation was extremely effective. The priest didn't dare to foolishly shout and attract Nie Yan's attention again. Otherwise, if Nie Yan really gave him a stab, he wouldn't even know how he died.

Nie Yan weaved through the gaps between dozens of players. Because he was so fast, like a phantom, the Bi Luo Cang Qiong players didn't have time to make any attacking movements.

Nie Yan darted among the Bi Luo Cang Qiong players, his speed reaching its peak.

This was the speed of Shadow Dance!

When speed and evasion formed a wonderful resonance, both could be amplified simultaneously.

This was the ultimate expression of the intelligent brain's data. When an object was in motion, it was in a state of vibration. The intelligent brain used its unique method to simulate a near-realistic universe, where all the rules were set by it, from the calculation of gravity, the laws of motion of objects, the definition of magic, and the conversion of strength, intelligence, and agility, to history, the continent, and the universe. This was Faith, an enchanting world.

When players advanced to the ultimate class, they had the opportunity to comprehend the rules of this virtual world.

All the rules were manifested using a kind of data.

And after understanding the rules, the power of the data could be maximized. For example, with two non-zero numbers, ordinary players could only add them together, while ultimate class players found a suitable entry point and could multiply them, obtaining a result far greater than simple addition.

The mysteries of the ultimate class were strength for warriors, magic resonance for mages, holy light for paladins, and speed for Shadow Dancers!

A genius game player had to calculate and apply data! To maximize the power of data!

This was the mystery of Shadow Dance that Nie Yan had comprehended!

Nie Yan bypassed a large number of Bi Luo Cang Qiong players. Like a shadow, he instantly approached Hao Tian. Under this extreme speed and illusory footwork, Nie Yan felt a sense of exhilaration and thoroughness.

After understanding the skills of Shadow Dance, he still had a long way to go.

He recalled the frenzy of browsing and studying Shadow Dance videos in the past. One after another, fleeting images flashed through Nie Yan's mind. The footwork of those Shadow Dance players seemed to merge with his own.

An experience of extreme limits!

Nie Yan suddenly remembered the technique that countless Shadow Dancers in his previous life were proud of: the Death Steps!

In a fast run, converge your breath, deepen your concealment, arrive behind your opponent without them realizing, then strike hard! Like the Grim Reaper, quietly taking the opponent's life.

Nie Yan's speed slowed slightly, slower than its peak, but the trajectory of his movement became even more unpredictable and erratic.

"He's there! Intercept him!"

Several paladins who had activated Divine Sight saw faint, blurred figures. They activated Inspiring Aura and went to intercept Nie Yan, but only saw Nie Yan's shadow gradually fade away, becoming even more difficult to catch.

When they charged over, their attacks had already missed.

Nie Yan smiled strangely, passing through the gaps in the paladins' attacks.

"Where is he?"

"I don't know!"

Hao Tian activated Divine Sight and saw a blurred figure flash past fifty or sixty yards to his left. When he looked again, he couldn't find it. The distance was still so far, and with so many priests and paladins blocking him, Hao Tian felt slightly relieved.

Just then, a furious roar came from the people of the Withering Leaf Studio opposite him. A figure activated Charge and rushed towards him.

Shui Se Yan Tou's eyes shone with a devouring light as he swung his two greatswords.

Whirlwind Slash!

A series of damage values as high as 500+ appeared.

The violent sword energy crashed over with an incomparably fierce momentum. The warriors were forced back after taking a hit, fearing to be too slow to evade. They couldn't withstand a second blow.

Leng Feng Jue Jian and Mu En rushed up from behind, sweeping away these players with low health.

Fireballs exploded on Shui Se Yan Tou's body, and Shui Se Yan Tou's health dropped very sharply, but the healers behind him didn't stop for a moment, and beams of white light fell on his body.

This was a contest between the Bi Luo Cang Qiong mages and the Withering Leaf Studio priests.

The priests of the Withering Leaf Studio were clearly superior. Their healing output was far greater than the damage output of the Bi Luo Cang Qiong mages. One priest's healing could withstand the output of three or four mages, so the priests of the Withering Leaf Studio had some advantages.

The Bi Luo Cang Qiong players parted like a tide, and anyone who stood in front of Shui Se Yan Tou was torn to shreds!

Several warriors wearing golden sets of equipment held back Leng Feng Jue Jian.

Magic bombarded Leng Feng Jue Jian's body. The healing from the Withering Leaf Studio was all focused on Shui Se Yan Tou, so the healing didn't keep up. Leng Feng Jue Jian was blasted away and fell to the ground.

Leng Feng Jue Jian had always been one of the main members of the Withering Leaf Studio and was Shui Se Yan Tou's good brother. Seeing his brother fall, Shui Se Yan Tou became even more enraged.

Charge!

Shui Se Yan Tou forcibly broke through the encirclement of more than a dozen people and pounced towards Hao Tian.

"Boss, I'll hold them back!" Mu En shouted, launching an almost suicidal attack, rushing over to intercept six or seven warriors wearing golden sets of equipment.

Hao Tian was close at hand!

With a determined momentum, Shui Se Yan Tou broke through the heavy encirclement and reached Hao Tian.

Facing Shui Se Yan Tou, Hao Tian didn't show any fear. He cast several prayer skills on himself, his attributes soaring by a large margin. He activated damage protection, raised the greatsword in his hand, and prepared to meet Shui Se Yan Tou.

"Hao Tian, die!" Shui Se Yan Tou suddenly jumped up, and a sweeping slash came down, the sword energy like a rainbow piercing the sun.

Hao Tian quickly retreated, assuming a blocking posture. If it came to a direct fight, his strength wasn't inferior to Shui Se Yan Tou. Shui Se Yan Tou's retreat had already been cut off. As long as he could hold Shui Se Yan Tou for a few dozen seconds, Shui Se Yan Tou would surely die!

Just as Hao Tian had assumed a defensive stance, he felt a chill rise from his back.

A thought flashed through his mind in an instant: Crazy Thief Nie Yan!

How did Nie Yan bypass so many priests and paladins? It was as unbelievable as a myth!

If Nie Yan stunned him from behind, coupled with Shui Se Yan Tou's fierce attack, he would surely die!

So they had agreed on it long ago. Protected by so many Bi Luo Cang Qiong players, Hao Tian thought he was safe, but he didn't expect his seemingly solid defense to be so vulnerable, easily broken through by Shui Se Yan Tou and Nie Yan, who had reached him.

"So you're Crazy Thief Nie Yan. Come on!" Hao Tian cast Divine Prayer on himself, and a Ground Fissure Shock, trying to knock Nie Yan back and then dodge Shui Se Yan Tou's attack.

His movements were incredibly fast.

Intimidate!

Before Hao Tian could cast Ground Fissure Shock, Nie Yan used Intimidate, interrupting his attack.

Hao Tian paused on the spot. In this split-second, Shui Se Yan Tou's sweeping slash struck Hao Tian, knocking him back.

The Bi Luo Cang Qiong's number one priest, who was responsible for healing Hao Tian, had just raised his staff when a figure appeared in front of him. It was Nie Yan!

Nie Yan kicked him, interrupting his healing magic, and a critical attack with the dagger in his hand sliced across the priest's throat. A damage value of over 500 points floated above the priest's head, and he fell to the ground.

Hao Tian was knocked away by the sweeping slash. He had just staggered to his feet when Shui Se Yan Tou charged up and knocked Hao Tian back several steps again. Because Shui Se Yan Tou had grasped the direction of the charge, Hao Tian involuntarily retreated towards where Nie Yan was.

With the Divine Prayer buff, Hao Tian's health exceeded 1,000 points, but Shui Se Yan Tou's attack had reduced his health to only 300 points.

Usually, Hao Tian had his own exclusive priest, while other priests were responsible for healing other people. When the other priests discovered that Hao Tian's health was very low and the number one priest had already been killed, it was too late to heal Hao Tian.

Hao Tian wanted to cast a heal on himself to buy some valuable time.

Before he could complete his movements, a dagger appeared at Hao Tian's neck, a clean and swift throat-slitting.

-302!

Hao Tian's pupils suddenly contracted, his eyes still blank and incredulous. He never expected that Nie Yan would quietly appear behind him at this time and give him a fatal blow.

The cooperation between Nie Yan and Shui Se Yan Tou was truly perfect. From the time Shui Se Yan Tou rushed to Hao Tian's front to the time they cooperated to kill Hao Tian, it was only a few seconds. Many people hadn't even reacted to what was happening when the battle ended, and Hao Tian had fallen at their feet.
