Martial Master

In an instant, several Ghost Immortal Sect martial artists surrounding Qin Chen all perished, with not a single survivor.

This shocking scene instantly stunned everyone present.

“What?!”

Nian Wuji, who had originally been smiling while watching the battle between Cao Heng and Princess Zixun, now wore a face of anger and disbelief.

How could this happen? Just moments ago, his subordinates had clearly suppressed Qin Chen, yet in just a short period, they all died at his hands? It happened so quickly that he didn't even have time to react.

These martial artists were all peak late-stage Earth Level fighters, and being sent to participate in the Five Nations Competition, each one was an elite of the Ghost Immortal Sect. Now, with all of them fallen, this was a significant loss for the sect.

“You’re looking for death.”

Nian Wuji quickly produced three flying knives in his hand, his eyes filled with a coldness that seemed capable of freezing the heavens. With a flick of his right hand, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, the three black streaks of light shot toward Qin Chen's face like meteors.

He felt a deep hatred in his heart; if he had acted sooner, perhaps several disciples from his sect wouldn’t have had to die.

The three black flying knives flew at astonishing speed, approaching Qin Chen from three tricky angles, clearly intending to kill him in one strike without giving him a chance to resist.

“Be careful, Qin Chen!”

From a distance, Princess Zixun and the others could not help but exclaim, having witnessed Lu Feng being instantly killed by a flying knife just moments ago.

However, they saw Qin Chen let out a light laugh and wave his sword.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three sword shadows appeared in the air, and all three flying knives were deflected.

“How is this possible?!”

Nian Wuji was very confident in his flying knives, which were controlled by a certain secret method. Within a distance of more than ten meters, their speed was astonishing. Even late-stage Heaven Level martial artists could hardly block all three flying knives simultaneously.

Yet, Qin Chen effortlessly deflected all his flying knives with just three sword strikes, completely beyond his imagination.

Cao Heng and Princess Zixun, standing nearby, were also stunned by this scene, their expressions serious. Had they been in that situation, they would have been unable to block such fast flying knives.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

With a focused gaze, an invisible force enveloped the black flying knives. When the knives missed their target, they instantly turned back and shot toward Qin Chen once again.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Qin Chen wielded the rusty sword, continuously deflecting the three flying knives, which kept attacking as if drawn by an invisible thread.

Bai Jing and the others gasped in shock.

What on earth is happening? Nian Wuji can remotely control these three flying knives from such a distance. If this continues, won't he be invincible? If they keep fighting, any small mistake could lead to Qin Chen being injured or even killed.

“Huh? I didn’t expect you to be a Bloodline Master as well?”

Qin Chen looked at Nian Wuji and chuckled lightly.

The flying knives were not only infused with true qi and mental energy but also contained the unique bloodline power of a Bloodline Master, clearly indicating they were a true treasure.

A true treasure is an object that a Bloodline Master can control using a unique secret method. Unlike treasure weapons, true treasures can be manipulated by the mental energy of the Bloodline Master to kill from afar.

And these flying knives were evidently a true treasure.

In the Tianwu Continent, true treasures are extremely rare and far more valuable than treasure weapons. The price of true treasures and treasure weapons of the same rank may differ by several times, even tenfold.

"Hmph, it’s good that you know. Kid, you killed my Ghost Immortal Sect's disciples; today, you shall not live."

Nian Wuji's face twisted in rage, and waves of invisible mental energy began to spread, accompanied by a mysterious bloodline force emanating from him. The black flying knives shimmered with red light, their power increasing dramatically.
