Chapter 661 - 661 After Modification 31 Assassination
661: After Modification: Chapter 31 Assassination 661: After Modification: Chapter 31 Assassination High in the sky, the Sword Intent shattered the dark clouds.
After reading through the case files of Lingqu City, his mood was already foul, when a “assassin” conveniently presented himself.
Xie Xuanyi did not hesitate in the slightest.
He raised his hand and threw out a series of talismans, completely sealing the Qi of this area.
“Escape?”
The tall figure sneered: “Why would I escape?”
The clouds suddenly grew colder.
Xie Xuanyi raised an eyebrow: “You did it on purpose?”
“Correct.”
The tall assassin smiled: “With Ye Qinglian in Lingqu City, had I truly killed you with one strike…
I would not have made it here.”
“…”
Xie Xuanyi fell into contemplation.
He knew many wanted to kill him.
Only, which faction did this assassin come from…
Jiangning?
Yin Mountain?
Or perhaps a hidden “ally”?
After this encounter.
Xie Xuanyi had already excluded Jiangning.
With Xie Zhisu’s style, if he truly wanted to kill him, he wouldn’t make a move in Lingqu City.
Yin Mountain was also unlikely, the aura of those Evil Cultivators could be smelled from miles away.
Although this guy’s Flying Sword Skill was strange, it wasn’t “yin” in nature.
Xie Xuanyi noticed one thing.
This assassin seemed to know about his ascension to Yin God.
That sword strike just now.
It contained “Tao Realm”!
A normal assassin, not knowing of Xie Xuanyi’s breakthrough, would strike once, and even if it failed, would attempt again…
But this guy was extremely decisive, fleeing the moment the strike missed, showing he was prepared for failure and was testing Xie Xuanyi’s level.
“Swoosh!”
The wind roared!
The large black robe fluttered wildly in the wind, the tall man raised his sleeve, and with the clashing of Sword Qi, a series of pitch-black flying swords hung in formation, emitting a cold gleam, like stars settled, scattered around Xie Xuanyi.
A total of twelve flying swords.
The one that initiated the assassin, nestled among them.
“…Yin God Middle Realm?”
Xie Xuanyi gazed thoughtfully at these flying swords, sensing a mature Tao Realm aura.
“Correct.”
The assassin smiled, saying: “Those outside still don’t know about your breakthrough…
but I’m sorry, ‘we’ were prepared long ago.”
As his words fell.
A wisp of pitch-black Sword Intent descended from the Heavenly Peak as the twelve flying swords formed a Sword Array, encasing Xie Xuanyi within.
Clearly…
this desolate wilderness was a battleground chosen voluntarily by the opponent.
The Sword Array settled, killing intent thickened.
Xie Xuanyi lowered his brows, knowing that if he hadn’t chosen to chase outside Lingqu City, this absurd assassination would have already ended…
The true “orchestrator” behind this assassination knew him well enough to arrange the true “assassination” here.
This place was far from Lingqu City, close to the South Border, with an array to block the heavens’ perception, no one would know what would happen.
“This assassination, though abrupt and crude, is cleverly arranged.”
Thinking of this.
Xie Xuanyi spoke with some relief: “It seems your master knows me well, perhaps we were once acquaintances?”
“…?”
The assassin frowned.
For some reason, a hint of unease surged in his heart.
It wasn’t hard to tell from the opponent’s tone, this guy didn’t find Yin God Middle Realm frightening.
In the next moment.
He understood the reason.
“Boom!”
The sky dark clouds began to reverse like a twister.
The Sword Intent circling the pitch-black Sword Array started to emit “terrified” vibrations.
A towering golden dharma slowly appeared behind Xie Zhen.
Two Tao Realms, one black and one white, one Yin and one Yang, coiled around the golden divine fetus’ shoulders, neck and arms, turning into two long swords.
“Martial Arts Divine Embryo?
Dual Dao Realm?”
Seeing this.
The tall assassin at Yin God Middle Realm was stunned, pupils contracted to the extreme, face full of disbelief.
What…
is going on?
Xie Zhen’s Divine Embryo was nearly perfect, having reached the Perfect Yin God Tenth Realm!
No one told him that Xie Zhen had reached this level before coming here!
“Swish!”
Xie Xuanyi raised his hand casually.
A finger.
The Martial Arts Divine Embryo clasped its hands, the Dual Dao Realm cut down——
The Sword Array encasing Xie Xuanyi instantly cracked, the twelve black swords trembled violently!
“No…”
The tall assassin reacted quickly.
He immediately summoned his own dharma, a blood-red bird like a phoenix, that spread its wings and tightly covered the Sword Array that was on the verge of shattering.
As the dharma unfolded, the cold clouds gained a scorching heat…
Unfortunately, even with the dharma summoned, the duel held no suspense.
The twelve black swords were purified into a bright red by the dharma flame.
Tao Realm collisions are the most brutal.
Life, destruction.
Even a single one of these two Tao Realms would be a pinnacle existence in the grand river of the Dao.
In an instant, just an instant.
The blood-red bird was shattered by the Annihilation Dao Realm——
Along with the crimson-tempered flying sword array.
The Sword Array and drifting clouds that locked the heavenly peaks’ Qi were casually swept away by Xie Xuanyi’s sleeve.
The twelve flying swords shattered, falling in pieces to the desolate earth below.
The tall assassin’s face was ashen.
He thought for this assassination, he had made “complete preparations.”
Nalan Qiutong, second on the Heavenly Pride List, was only a hair’s breadth from ascending to Yin God, then the first on the Heavenly Pride List, Xie Zhen, should have just completed his ascension.
Who could have thought the gap between first and second was like a chasm!
