The silver suits of armor shone brilliantly under the dimly lit sky, creating an exceptionally conspicuous sight.
The assault from all directions forced Shi Feng to an abrupt halt.
Facing such intense attacks, Shi Feng had no choice but to stop. Even he was not confident of defending against so many attacks on the run.
_This won't do. I won't last long at this rate. I need to move faster._ Looking at the swords decorating the sky, an idea, inspired by his years of experience, struck Shi Feng.
Purgatory Power!
Shi Feng's Attack Speed rose by 100%.
He then brandished the Abyssal Blade and the Purgatory's Shadow, sending blades of light at the incoming swords and striking them down.
After continuing this process for three seconds, Shi Feng successfully deflected all of the swords that attacked him, scattering them around him.
"Undead Creature?" Shi Feng activated Omniscient Eyes and examined the distant Skeleton Warriors.
Shi Feng could not learn anything about these undead monsters.
If he faced them one-on-one, Shi Feng was confident that he could defeat such a monster with ease. If he had to face a group of them, however, even he was not certain that he would win. Moreover, the swords in the sky still posed a huge threat. When the two combined, Shi Feng's very life was at risk.
However, Shi Feng did not know if death meant failing the Legacy Trial. If it did, then he would truly be finished.
As a precaution, Shi Feng did not immediately move after fending off the flying swords. Instead, he stopped to think of an appropriate countermeasure.
_Changing_ _my path_ _isn't possible_ _. For now, let's_ _put these_ _Skeleton Warriors_ _to the test_ _._
The only exit was at the mountain's peak. Naturally, Shi Feng could not retreat. However, charging forward rashly and accidentally losing his life was unwise.
Hence, Shi Feng activated Phantom Kill, sending his doppelganger charging towards the Skeleton Warriors to test their strength. By doing so, not only could he buy himself time to come up with a defense against these undead monsters, but he could also avoid falling into any traps.
After all, this was the Trial of one of the Ten Great Saint Legacies. He could not afford to be careless.
The doppelganger possessed 70% of Shi Feng's Attributes. It was more than enough to deal with a single Skeleton Warrior.
The doppelganger dodged the swords from above while approaching the Skeleton Warriors. However, when only a distance of 40 yards remained between them, the Skeleton Warriors still showed no signs of taking action. Instead, the monsters only focused on the doppelganger's every movement, killing intent oozing from their entire bodies. It looked as if they would explode at any moment.
Disregarding the Skeleton Warriors' lack of a reaction, the doppelganger threw the Blazing Meteor at the closest undead creature. The weapon struck the monster's thigh, causing -816 damage. It would seem that the Skeleton Warriors only possessed mediocre Defense. However, the instant the Skeleton Warrior was struck, it started moving and charged at Shi Feng's doppelganger.
The Skeleton Warrior that had been hit was not the only one to move. The surrounding dozen or so undead creatures charged at the doppelganger as well.
