Martial Master

“Hmph, you really surprised me; you indeed have some skill. But I have the Qing Yuan Emperor Armor protecting me, standing invincible. Let’s see how you can break through my defense.” Jia Li’s eyes glinted fiercely, his heart alarmed, yet he deliberately wore a flamboyant expression.

If he didn’t have the Qing Yuan Emperor Armor, facing this sword strike, he wouldn’t have any confidence in defending against it. This sword was simply too fast, too fierce. He could hardly imagine how Qin Chen suddenly became so powerful; it was as if he had turned into a different person.

“The top-tier defensive emperor weapon is indeed troublesome; it seems I will have to exert some effort.” Qin Chen didn’t expect that Jia Li would have a top-tier defensive emperor weapon for protection. In this case, the difficulty of killing him increased severalfold. Fortunately, every time the opponent activated the defensive emperor weapon, it required a large amount of true essence. He did not believe that the opponent could use it indefinitely.

If the emperor weapon's defense was not activated by true essence, its power would be greatly diminished!

“Thunder Devour!”

Since the killing sword aura was ineffective, Qin Chen unleashed his Thunder Bloodline. Crackling sounds erupted, and thunder light coiled around him, transforming into a flash of thunder that condensed on the Han Yue Ancient Sword, a thin layer of azure lightning resembling a sharp blade of thunder, fiercely stabbing toward Jia Li.

“Dodge!”

Jia Li’s figure flickered, moving at an incredible speed, fleeing rapidly.

However, he was fast, but Qin Chen’s sword aura was even faster. In the void, a flash of lightning struck, and a terrifying sword hit his protective true essence.

Boom!

Jia Li’s feet left the ground, flying backward, and the violent thunder wrapped around him, making him appear like a human lightning bolt.

“Aren’t you the assassination king of Tian Lei City? Is this all you can do? Do you need me to step in?”

Long Ba Tian initially thought Jia Li would solve Qin Chen in no time, but after the clash, he could hardly believe his eyes, thinking he was hallucinating; everything was just an illusion.

“No need!” Jia Li stood up fiercely, killing intent rising in his eyes. After enduring two sword strikes from Qin Chen, aside from feeling his blood boil and experiencing severe chest pain, he wasn’t significantly harmed. Deep down, he was angry: he had underestimated this kid’s strength. However, being at the late Martial God realm, his defenses shouldn’t be too high, and he didn’t believe he could withstand his attacks.

“It was your attack before, now it’s my turn!”

“Four Symbols Displacement!”

With a low shout, Jia Li’s figure suddenly became fuzzy. Swish, swish, swish, three afterimages shot out from his body, and suddenly, four Jia Lis appeared in the square. Each of these four was vivid, and at a glance, it was impossible to distinguish which was the real body and which were the clones.

“How is this possible?”

Everyone gasped in shock, even the Extreme Mirror Pill Emperor and others widened their eyes, as even they could not discern Jia Li’s true body for a moment. This body doubling secret technique was truly terrifying.

“Four Symbols Execution!”

The four “Jia Li” surrounded Qin Chen from four corners. With a push from their feet on the ground, all four soared into the air simultaneously, their dark blades spinning like the scythe of death, crashing toward Qin Chen, a hundred meters away. As the blades cut through, the void was sliced with black threads, like a sharp paper cutter, tearing the space itself apart and encircling Qin Chen layer upon layer.

At this moment, Jia Li’s strength was fully displayed.

“Jia Li, today you will definitely die.”

If the opponent did not have a top-tier defensive armor, he would have been dead long ago. However, Qin Chen was not in a hurry. Jia Li’s true essence was limited and could not be activated endlessly. Moreover, Qin Chen did not plan to exhaust Jia Li’s true essence because he knew that consuming such time would be too long. Giving a killer like Jia Li such long time would inevitably lead to unexpected developments.
