Chapter 781

A body had been pierced and blood flowed out . But what was doing the piercing was a lightning spear, not a sword . In an instant, a person in a mask had appeared behind Long Chen .

Long Chen didn’t look back . Still holding the lightning spear, he icily said, “You might be able to hide in thin air, but you can’t hide from my senses . Your a.s.sa.s.sination arts are just a joke in front of me . ”

Suddenly, the lightning spear shook, and the a.s.sa.s.sin from the Bloodkill Hall exploded before they could make a sound .

Putting away the lightning spear, Long Chen continued forward . From the beginning to the end, Long Chen hadn’t even looked at the person .

Ever since coming into contact with the Bloodkill Hall’s a.s.sa.s.sins, Long Chen had lost count of how many times they had tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate him . Now, he could feel it whenever a.s.sa.s.sins from the Bloodkill Hall approached him .

So even though these a.s.sa.s.sins could suppress their auras, their heartbeats, their breaths, and their killing intent, they were still unable to escape the senses of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art . So for them to think that they could a.s.sa.s.sinate Long Chen was an immense joke .

Long Chen advanced several hundred meters into the cave . Eventually, he arrived at a well-lit area that was like a den . There were eight caves he could go into now, and each of them had an immortal character written above their entrance . But Long Chen didn’t recognize the characters .

But what he didn’t expect was that as soon as he walked in, he became the focus of six Corrupt Celestials . Those six people all possessed powerful auras, and they surrounded him .

“Long Chen?” One of the Corrupt experts was like a dried-up corpse . His eyes were deeply set, and he looked like a zombie that had crawled up from the underground .

Long Chen immediately realized why that a.s.sa.s.sin hadn’t entered here . He had most likely entered here, but then seeing the six people in front of him, he had retreated .

The Bloodkill Hall was neutral just like the Pill Tower . They accepted business from the Righteous path and the Corrupt path . So they weren’t allied with the Corrupt path . He had left before the six of them could sense him .

As a result, at that time, he had encountered Long Chen walking in . That a.s.sa.s.sin really was unlucky . After dodging six hungry wolves, he had been slaughtered by a fierce tiger .

“You’re not running from me? Then that must mean you’re quite the figure . Are you that fellow called Xue You?” asked Long Chen . He sensed a great deal of pressure from this corpse-like man .

“Hmph, a great man like Xue You doesn’t need to personally kill you . Today, I’ll bury you here . ” The corpse-like man suddenly took out a staff, a staff of mourning . Countless strips of scarlet cloth were tied around the top .

BOOM!

As soon as the corpse-like man took out his weapon, countless runes erupted like a volcano . There were actually three different runes .

“Rank three Celestial!” Long Chen was startled . He hadn’t expected that one of them would be a rank three Celestial, and his aura was actually much stronger than Shui Guanzhi’s .

“Die!” The corpse-like man’s mourning staff smashed down like a bolt of lightning . Long Chen snorted and smashed his fist at it . He wanted to test this person’s skills .

But the instant his fist touched the mourning staff, the red cloth on the staff suddenly stretched out like snakes, wrapping Long Chen completely before he could do anything .

“Hahaha, this is the existence at the top of the must-kill list, the figure that shook the entire Corrupt path? He’s just trash . Die . ”

The corpse-like man laughed heartily . This weapon of his was no ordinary weapon . It was a high grade Enchanted item, and it was a corrupt weapon .

This weapon could absorb the souls, blood, and flesh of the people it killed . Those things were condensed to form the scarlet strips of cloth . Normally, those strips of cloth were completely ordinary, but once they attacked, they could instantly coil around someone and crush them to death .

Each strip of cloth had absorbed the flesh and Spiritual Strength of countless people . They were incredibly powerful, and it was essentially impossible to tear them apart with physical strength . Once they were activated, a person would immediately be crushed to a pulp .

BOOM! Just as the corpse-like man was about to kill Long Chen, the cloths wrapped around him exploded . Long Chen’s entire body was surrounded by lightning runes .

“How close . What a strange attack . ” This was Long Chen’s first time encountering such a strange weapon . The instant he had been wrapped, he had circulated his thunderforce to protect himself . Thunderforce possessed quite an advantage over corrupt weapons .

Taking advantage of his shock, Long Chen immediately launched an attack . A fist covered in thunderforce smashed toward the corpse-like man .

The corpse-like man hastily used his staff to block . As a result, both Long Chen and the corpse-like man were forced back a few steps .

Long Chen was startled . He once more shot forward . The other Corrupt experts also recovered from their shock and joined the battle . These five were all rank two Celestials and incredibly powerful . It was no wonder they would want to kill him here .
