Master of the End Times

Chapter 1007: Meeting SS-tiers again

The SS-tier was a lady carrying a violent gale. ‘One out of nineteen.’ Qin Feng quickly grasped her identity.

An SS-tier from the Japanese Alliance, Seinakawa.

Without Seinakawa, the Japanese Alliance would never reach the height it was at now. This woman was touted to be the most powerful deity by aptitude users from the Japanese Alliance. Of course, it was just a boastful claim.

Then again, not every alliance had an SS-tier to boast about.

Another two ability users appeared after her.

Only SS-tiers could have advanced so far. They could be from either the Human Alliance or the Dark Coalition.

Indeed, the first that came into sight was a man coated entirely in a black, deadly aura.

A dark ability user—Singhnar, Grim Diablo.

He had lived for so long that no one knew which faction of the Dark Coalition he actually belonged to.

The one that appeared later had a body coated by metallic paint.

His signature outlook made it simple for Qin Feng to guess his identity.

A metal-type elect from the Meherz Empire—Rick, the Stellar Steel.

The Dead Silent City that Qin Feng had visited before was part of Meherz.

The three SS-tiers simultaneously realized that the runes here were much thinner than the spots they had just passed through.

“Why is there an S-tier here?” Seinakawa raised her voice. After seeing Qin Feng’s black hair and black iris, she asked impatiently, “Which alliance do you belong to?”

The Japanese Alliance’s status in the Human Alliance was elevated thanks to Seinakawa. However, the number of S-tiers in the alliance was still sparse. Though Seinakawa had no recollection of Qin Feng, she was certain that he did not come from her alliance.

“Huaxia!”

A slight grimace surfaced and faded off quickly from the SS-tier’s face.

The territory of the Japanese Alliance was relatively small, and they had been eyeing the lands of Huaxia for quite some time now. However, they could not find any reason to ask Huaxia to give up the territories. The two SS-tiers protecting Huaxia were not someone Seinakawa dared to provoke.

Thus, she held a grudge against anyone coming from Huaxia.

“Huaxia has added another S-tier? Unbelievable.” The thought came straight out of Seinakawa’s mind. Her emotion was laid bare, and Qin Feng could crisply sense the displeasure in her tone.

She despised the growth of Huaxia despite them being under the same alliance. Seinakawa’s narrow-mindedness made her a foe to Huaxia, Qin Feng thought to himself.

Qin Feng ignored Seinakawa while quietly slowing down the speed of rune absorption. He needed to stay extra vigilant in the face of Seinakawa, even more so toward Singhnar.

That was because he was currently immersed in a dark, decaying land. Dark waves of energy pulsed into Qin Feng’s body continuously.

Singhnar observed him disgruntledly.

Though Qin Feng had considerably slowed down the absorption speed, it was still too fast from others’ perspectives.

At this rate, the dark runes on this land would be emptied in no time.

“Get the hell out!” Singhnar did not want to look for another spot because this place seemed to be safe. He could simply kill the S-tier if he disobeyed his order.

However, at this point, Singhnar did not know yet that he would soon regret his arrogance.

Qin Feng did not want others to see his capability. That did not mean he would run away cowardly when others brought trouble to him.

He had confidence in his current skill level. If anyone wanted trouble with him, they would get what they wished for.

“Come if you dare. Otherwise, get out of my sight,” Qin Feng warned coldly.

SS-tiers were a rare breed. Only nineteen were present in their realm.

Qin Feng had put one down earlier. He did not mind killing another.

“What did you say? Did I hear you right? Do you know who I am?” Singhnar mocked Qin Feng. He thought that Qin Feng was being recklessly ignorant in talking to him in this way.

Rick, who had not spoken till now looked at Qin Feng in disbelief.

Seinakawa was glaring at Qin Feng as well. She had no intention to help Qin Feng. In fact, she quietly wished that Singhnar would kill him for her. That way, it would weaken the Huaxia Alliance’s general battle strength.

Qin Feng said what he had to say and turned away from Singhnar. He did not want to waste time on them and focused again on absorbing the runes. Though it was just a tiny change, the sensitive SS-tiers immediately noticed that the depth of the rune cloud had lowered by one millimeter.

One millimeter of such a large area was equivalent to countless runes.

Singhnar could no longer hold back his anger. Qin Feng’s reluctance to leave as told was a challenge to his authority.

Boom!

Singhnar charged into the dark land. He was covered by dark runes instantaneously.

“What!?” Singhnar finally experienced first-hand the density of the rune sea. He had to resist the runes and the galaxy force simultaneously with every ounce of his energy. As a result, he could only manage to absorb the dark runes bit by bit.

That was actually the norm.

Previously at Dragonspine Valley, most SS-tiers were scared of the dark waves inside the Immortal’s realm as well. The death waves here were even wilder than that. This was not a place where Singhnar could behave atrociously as he pleased.

Qin Feng sneered. “Do you still want to fight me now? Know your place. I can kill you anytime I want.”

Singhnar’s face reddened out of fury.

‘I am going to teach you a lesson once I have absorbed all these runes.’ Singhnar vowed quietly. He did not dare to provoke Qin Feng now.

The two other SS-tiers were bewildered to see Singhnar swallow his pride and do nothing despite Qin Feng’s humiliation. They did not stay for long and went to their respective compatible rune spots.

A balance was maintained between the four of them. They did not interfere with one another.

However, as compared to Rick and Seinakawa, Singhnar was in the worst shape. His mind was clouded by anger, and his eyes were bloodshot. The dark force crept into his turbulent conscious realm and created a demon.

However, before he lost grip of himself, the dark runes around him thinned rapidly.

It was not easy for an SS-tier to be possessed by the mental demon, to begin with. As soon as the runes were trimmed, the dark energy stopped invading Singhnar’s mind. That helped him to regain his sanity.

Upon waking up from his blinding anger, Singhnar realized that there were not many runes left.

‘When? How?’ Singhnar was petrified. He had only been here for at most three hours.

Singhnar raised his head and looked toward Qin Feng. He saw the vortex between Qin Feng’s brow, and the final bits of dark runes were swirling into his conscious realm through it.

Suddenly, Singhnar was wary of Qin Feng.
