Chapter 999 - Death Dao Art
Elder Black unleashed the Lesser Severance Art shortly after the Great Five Elemental Palm took shape. Like a saw, the dao technique tore through an opening in the Great Five Elemental Palm.
His Lesser Severance Art surpassed Qiu Zhengyi's in strength. The two weren't on the same level. While Qiu Zhengyi was only at the pinnacle of the Spirit Profound Realm, Elder Black was at the second-level Earth Profound Realm.
Liu Wuxie had already anticipated that Elder Black had mastered the Lesser Severance Art. After his battle with Qiu Zhengyi, he had modified the Great Five Elemental Palm to enhance its density.
When the Lesser Severance Art tore through the colossal palm, the Great Five Elemental Palm had shaped into a colossal millstone. The millstone spun violently and devoured the Lesser Severance Art's energy with a swirling vortex.
A flicker of unease flashed across Elder Black's eyes as he lost his calm demeanor.
Elder Black laughed and began retreating. "Liu Wuxie, you can't kill me. When I return to the Black Plume Pavilion, I'll ensure you're hunted endlessly!"
No one would believe Liu Wuxie had forced an Earth Profound Realm expert to flee.
"Did I give you permission to leave?" Liu Wuxie sneered.
The four assassins launched a coordinated attack, targeting Elder Black's back.
"You all deserve to die! The Black Plume Pavilion spent decades nurturing you, and you dare turn your blades against it?!" Elder Black bellowed in fury, facing the attacks from Ruan Ying and the others.
However, there was nothing he could do. The assassins weren't at the Earth Profound Realm, but their combined strength could rival someone at the first-level Earth Profound Realm.
