Chapter 1 Nie Yan's Challenge

That battle in the Molten Forest made Nie Yan famous, becoming an indelible memory in the hearts of players.

In that battle, Nie Yan killed Hei Zhu in full view of the public and left in a grand manner.

The name of the Crazy Thief spread from then on.

After so long, Nie Yan made that iconic move again. What did it mean? Did he want to kill Ye Po Shengun?

More than a dozen guilds around were watching. They had personally witnessed Nie Yan triggering the Golden Earth Dragon, leading the Golden Earth Dragon to sweep through the entire Radiant Sacred Flame, plunging the Radiant Sacred Flame into chaos. At the same time, they also personally saw Nie Yan make that gesture to Ye Po Shengun.

This was a declaration of war, a provocation!

Did Nie Yan want to replay the scene of the Molten Forest back then?

Radiant Sacred Flame was not Zongheng Tianxia, and Ye Po Shengun was not Hei Zhu!

When Nie Yan was still unknown, Ye Po Shengun was already a well-known expert, recognized by everyone, but he rarely took action himself.

Under the state of Mana Burning, Ye Po Shengun's valiant strength was displayed before everyone's eyes. Nie Yan had been retreating in embarrassment under his fierce and sharp attacks, and was almost killed by Ye Po Shengun several times.

Although the Radiant Sacred Flame suffered heavy losses, there were still so many people around Ye Po Shengun, including warriors and holy knights. With the protection of so many people, Ye Po Shengun could be said to be sitting back and relaxing.

Could Nie Yan turn defeat into victory under such a disadvantage?

To kill Ye Po Shengun was easier said than done.

No one believed it, and Ye Po Shengun's face was ashen, his cold eyes locked on Nie Yan.

In his heart, he was finally provoked to anger by Nie Yan.

Ye Po Shengun's whole body was flowing with mana, and a powerful magical aura spread out, his body slowly floating up, hovering at a height of about half a yard, and everyone around felt a heavy pressure.

Several warriors and holy knights around him unconsciously took a few steps back, their hearts filled with awe. It was that magic! A skill they didn't even know the state of.

"Crazy Thief Nie Yan, want to kill me? Come at me." Ye Po Shengun's deep voice was like rolling thunder. At this moment, Ye Po Shengun, like a god, overlooked the earth and all living beings.

Celestial Mana!

From Ye Po Shengun's throat, he uttered a series of deep syllables. The mana within a hundred yards was surging violently.

Seeing Ye Po Shengun's state, Nie Yan's expression finally changed slightly. This guy had actually learned Celestial Mana! The Mana Burning and Celestial Mana rewards came from a chain quest, a total of six stages, somewhat similar to Kals' Blessing. Mana Burning and Celestial Mana were the rewards for two of the quest stages, and the difficulty was very high. It was said that very few people in his previous life were able to complete two stages.

Celestial Mana allowed a mage to have an endless amount of mana for a specific period of time, and make three designated spells (non-advanced spells) instant-cast with a significant reduction in cooldown time. Of course, casting Celestial Mana also had very strong side effects.

In the sky, streaks of magical light collided violently, making slight tremors.

The magical elements in the air flowed back into Ye Po Shengun's body, and Ye Po Shengun's body was like a vortex, quickly absorbing the surrounding mana.

Ye Po Shengun waved his staff, Blizzard!

The sky suddenly darkened, the cold wind howled, and a violent blizzard fell from the sky.

Damn, turning a range spell like Blizzard into an instant cast, that's ruthless.

Discovering the frantic blizzard falling, Nie Yan jumped down from the tree, used Stealth to disappear, and activated Death Dance to run away.

The blizzard swept over the big tree behind Nie Yan, and the big tree was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture.

He didn't expect Ye Po Shengun to have such a valiant magic like Celestial Mana. Nie Yan was already considering whether he should use the Judgement of the Angels. Only the Judgement of the Angels could restrain Ye Po Shengun's violent magic attacks! He should have taken some time to unlock some skills on the Shadow of Darkness, there were never enough skills!

Ye Po Shengun's magic attacks did not stop. Countless spells continued to pour down, Icy Touch!

He couldn't sense Nie Yan's position, he could only judge the direction of the attack based on his powerful consciousness.

A pair of icy hands flew towards the direction Nie Yan was running. Nie Yan quickly dodged to the side, rolled out, and with a bang, the frost of Icy Touch exploded, and pieces of ice flowers quickly spread out, like a huge ice and snow lotus blooming on the ground, covering an area of about 5x5 yards.

Fortunately, the attack position of Icy Touch was still a little off. Ye Po Shengun had obviously underestimated Nie Yan's speed, it was just a little bit off, and it would have hit Nie Yan.

At the moment when Ye Po Shengun and Nie Yan were fighting, the aggro of the Golden Earth Dragon shifted once again when Nie Yan entered Stealth.

Ye Po Shengun accelerated the frequency of his attacks, and ice magic attacks were released one after another, making it dizzying.

The guild leaders who were fighting the Golden Earth Dragon while watching the battle on the side had a dazed expression. He didn't expect Ye Po Shengun, who had always been low-key, to be so fierce when he broke out.

Under such a violent attack, probably only Nie Yan could have survived until now.

Ice Wolf!

Ye Po Shengun spat out a few heavy syllables, and the surrounding ice elements quickly condensed, transforming into the appearance of a giant ice wolf. The whole body was constructed of ice, as high as two yards, crystal clear, making a muffled roar, revealing sharp fangs.

The giant ice wolf pounced on Nie Yan, and a chilling air rushed towards him.

Swish, swish, swish, streaks of white light balls flew into the sky, and silver light broadcasted Nie Yan's name. The white light poured on the giant ice wolf, refracting streaks of colorful beams, the light mottled and hazy.

The aggro of the Golden Earth Dragon was no longer on Nie Yan, and was attacking the people of Zongheng Tianxia and Dark Slaughter next to him.

The area cleared by the Golden Earth Dragon nearby was Nie Yan's battlefield.

Seeing the giant ice wolf pouncing, Nie Yan quickly retreated. This ice wolf had a total of six hundred health points, and it had ice armor, which was extremely resistant to physical damage. Nie Yan did not dare to underestimate it.

Ye Po Shengun was so low-key, possessing so many powerful magic spells, he was much stronger than the few mages in Nie Yan's guild. No one in his previous life had ever seen him cast them. It could be seen how deep his mind was. If it weren't for Nie Yan's provocation, it would have been difficult for him to reveal his true strength.

"Today, this will be the burial place of Crazy Thief Nie Yan!" Ye Po Shengun's icy voice was like it came from hell.

If Crazy Thief Nie Yan died here, would he still be Crazy Thief Nie Yan?

A myth would collapse, leaving only ruins.

The ice wolf leaped up and pounced on Nie Yan, a chilling frost rushing towards him.

The ice wolf's claws shone with a chilling light, the sharp claws grabbed towards Nie Yan's throat, as fast as lightning, and in the next moment, Nie Yan would be splattered with blood.
