The assassin claimed to be the master, and unexpectedly, he was also an extraordinary Earth Saint.
This cold and unparalleled Earth Saint had evidently plotted for a long time, planning a lethal strike.
The sword light pierced through, a single sword strike aimed to kill. As the sword aura approached Qin Chen, it suddenly flicked up and down, transforming into a fatal technique. In the transition of that fatal sword move, it enveloped an area of heaven and earth.
The space in this area was constricted, all things sank into despair, forming a unique pocket world. This realm completely became that person's domain.
Moreover, that black ancient sword ignited, with eerie demonic energy swirling around it, even drawing in the Yan Luo demonic energy, forming terrifying combat power.
In an instant, Qin Chen was completely shrouded by the sword intent, and the formidable force threatened to suppress everything in eternity.
This series of tactics, aimed at Qin Chen, a mid-stage Earth Saint warrior, would likely be impossible to escape even for an existence that surpassed the extraordinary Earth Saint.
"Is the leader of the Wukong organization going for a kill?"
Ao Lie, the city lord of Cang Xuan City, almost had his eyes split open, yet at this moment, he showed no change, only able to watch helplessly as Qin Chen was about to be assassinated.
Because by the time his divine sense reacted, the deadly attack had already completely enveloped Qin Chen.
Everyone was caught off guard when the assassin leader of the Wukong organization, Jue Ming, suddenly appeared and made a direct assassination attempt.
"What? People from the Wukong organization are actually here?"
"How despicable, that Jue Ming actually got there first."
"No! Qin Chen must have counterattack methods. We can let them both suffer and then seize the extraordinary Earth Dan and various treasures."
"Indeed, prepare to strike together!"
Xue Wudao from Tianyue City, Gu Liushen from Ancient Language City, and Ni Feng from Fengyun City were all planning to let Qin Chen and Jue Ming fight each other until they were wounded, and then take action to capture them.
However, the next scene left them disappointed.
That monumental killing move descended but missed its target; Qin Chen's form exploded with a loud bang, fracturing into pieces. He wore a smile, allowing the killing move to strike him, showing no signs of resistance. The sword intent hit a lightning illusion, causing the void to explode.
The leader Jue Ming let out a shocked roar, "How could it be a clone?
I clearly locked onto his aura with the life sword; it should not be a clone illusion. How could he hide from my senses?"
"Hmph! The assassin from the Wukong organization, an extraordinary Earth Saint, is actually so shameless to ambush a mid-stage Earth Saint warrior.
Truly despicable; if this gets out, won’t it make the world laugh?"
A voice transmitted from another part of the great hall, gathering lightning into a figure, and it turned out to be Qin Chen: "You hid in the shadows, wanting to deal with me, but unfortunately, you overestimated yourself. How could I be schemed against by such despicable people?
You must be furious enough to vomit blood now, right?
To be honest, I had long predicted that you would take advantage of the situation.
Although you hid well within this great hall and concealed your aura perfectly, I can control the Yan Luo demonic energy; I still sensed your presence. Thus, no movement here could escape my notice. From the very start, your ambush was destined to fail."
Qin Chen had indeed anticipated the presence of prying eyes. He had just utilized the energy from the extraordinary True Dragon Dan and activated the ancient holy veins to stimulate his Thunder Incarnation. Even though he had not truly transformed into thunder, the power of thunder still captured that chilling killing intent.
Moreover, he already knew that the Wukong organization and the Soulfire Family had come here. Therefore, in an instant, he created a lightning clone while quietly retreating.
