Martial Master

Qin Chen was on the brink of life and death, gripping the sword's body with his hand, while forcefully enduring the unparalleled blow surging from the sword—a killing intent that transcended the ages.

Boom! The murderous intent and sword aura surged into his body, and in an instant, it was about to crush Qin Chen's flesh, the terrifying power of slaughter threatening to shatter him completely.

Indestructible Holy Body! Qin Chen took a deep breath, the power within him pushed to the limit, and from his eyes shot an alarming brilliance, deeply gazing into this assassin's eyes. The immense primal force within him revolved, his solid body exerting itself to the utmost, while the sword aura within Qin Chen coiled around, activating the Spatial Law, the primal force crazily rotating, forcibly dismantling that wave of killing aura and sword qi.

Only Qin Chen could accomplish this, for his flesh was extraordinarily strong, comparable to an Earth Saint. Moreover, Qin Chen's greatest strength lay in his mastery of the sword path, possessing the rules of slaughter, making him extremely familiar with such attacks. Otherwise, if it were anyone else, even Shang Gukong would be pierced by this sword.

“Hm?”

The assassin was suddenly taken aback, never expecting that his ultimate killing sword would be resisted by someone. The terrifying killing intent contained within the sword was as if it had sunk into the sea, forcibly suppressed. Just how powerful was this person?

Mid-Earth Saint?

Late-Earth Saint?

However, the other party did not emit the aura of an Earth Saint; like himself, they were both at the Mortal Saint realm, or rather at the peak of the Mortal Saint realm. But how could such a person withstand his ultimate killing sword?

He was a peerless assassin who had once assassinated Earth Saint experts.

“Kill!”

The assassin, after all, was a supreme expert, a frenzied powerhouse. Having failed to strike, he quickly withdrew his sword. Qin Chen grasped firmly, and the sword tip instantly stirred endless rules, unleashing terrifying auras and breeding an infinite sharpness.

This was a holy sword, and within the holy sword, it was exceptionally extraordinary, though it had not yet reached the level of an Earth Saint weapon; otherwise, Qin Chen would also be injured under this sword.

Puchi! Qin Chen's palm stung slightly, a fine cut appearing, as the other party forcibly pulled the sharp sword from Qin Chen's hand.

“Such a pity, if my cultivation were a bit higher, this person wouldn't be able to pull out the sword at all.”

Qin Chen sighed; the strength of this peerless assassin was too strong, capable of assassinating early Earth Saint experts. No matter how strong Qin Chen was, under such holy weapons and rule sword qi, it was impossible to forcibly retain the other party's sharp sword, leaving him feeling regretful.

If others heard this, they would definitely go mad. This sword could slay early Earth Saint experts, yet Qin Chen merely suffered a slight injury and was still so dissatisfied. People compared to others—simply infuriating.

The assassin drew out the sharp sword and immediately swept across, instantly claiming the lives of dozens on the street. Other peak Mortal Saint realm experts were easily slaughtered under this kind of attack, with no power to resist.

“Qin Tingting, be careful.”

A fierce aura surged as Shang Gukong blocked in front of Qin Tingting, the Earth Saint aura enveloping her, helping to deflect the sword qi attack.

The assassin's sharp sword absorbed a lot of power and ignited again, just when everyone thought he would strike again, that mysterious assassin, having missed, transformed into a cloud of black smoke, madly fleeing towards the outskirts of Cangxuan City, about to vanish into thin air in an instant.

“Stay!”

Qin Chen would not allow this assassin to escape, and he punched out into the air.

Killing Punch Intent! Boom! The terrifying punch momentum swept through, as if a great storm had risen above the street, containing endless rule power, shaking the entire street. Many martial artists present staggered back under this pressure, not daring to look directly.
