Chapter 1627: Chapter 1627 - Frightening Assassin
Even though Zhang Ruochen had already retreated into the corner of the room, acting as if he was harmless, the thin man didn’t intend to let him go .
Crack!
The thin man hit his belt with his hand .
Three silver metal balls flew out of his belt . Two of them flew toward prince Luonan and Yi Roc .
The third flew toward Zhang Ruochen .
Won’t even go easy on me, a half-step Saint King .
Zhang Ruochen sighed . He lifted his Abyss Ancient Sword, activating the First Yao power, and went to meet the ball .
Whoosh!
Two sharp three-foot-long blades grew out of the silver ball . It spun in the air, creating gales of wind . Sword Qi struck out in all directions .
The silver ball moved extremely quickly and unpredictably .
Boom, boom .
Without warning, Prince Luonan was cut seven times in a row . Sparks flew from his Ten-thousand-pattern saint armor .
The great power in the blades sent Prince Luonan’s body spinning like a top . He flew out and crashed into the wall . His entire body was messed up .
Yi Roc wasn’t any better . He was thrown into a tizzy from the silver ball . He was cut four or five times, but he used his strong defensive wings to survive .
Right now, Yi Roc and Prince Luonan were terrified . With their cultivations, they couldn’t even handle two silver balls that the other released .
If the thin man personally attacked, he’d be able to kill them easily .
The two felt great regret . If they’d known better, they wouldn’t have tried to be heroes . When the thin man had attacked, they should’ve tried their hardest to break through the Lifeless Blood Prison and escape .
The thin man grabbed a long spear . It was black and ancient with interweaving lightning bolts . He cleanly stabbed toward the Pill Spirit King .
The spear was like a demonic pillar while the tip was a divine thorn .
The Pill Spirit King had a high cultivation and reacted calmly . Red fire poured out of her palms and solidified into a peony, blooming like a red lotus from hell .
In that instant, the temperature of the room skyrocketed . Other than the fighting people, everything was burned to ashes .
The Pill Spirit King cultivated the top technique of the Peony Race—the Hell Force . It wasn’t as strong as the 81 techniques on the Taiyi Techniques Divine Rank, but if she cultivated it to the extreme, she could still become a god .
How could a technique that led to the God Realm be weak?
The hellfire stored within her was unlimited . It spewed out continuously, turning the peony flower translucent and almost liquid .
Boom! The thin man stabbed with his spear, hitting the peony .
A deafening boom burst forth in the room . Wild holy power surged in all directions .
Prince Luonan, Yi Roc, and the two silver balls were sent flying by the strong wind . They hit the walls, seeming pathetic .
“This place is too small . I can’t take advantage of my speed . ” Yi Roc was annoyed .
Prince Luonan’s eyes were cold and sharp . “Seems like I’ll have to use the Saint Look Rune to end this battle quickly . ”
Before coming to the Truth Heavenly Domain, a Supreme Saint from his mother’s clan had given him a Saint Look Rune . Apparently, if it was activated, he could temporarily have a seventh step Saint King’s power .
However, the rune paper couldn’t withstand a seventh step Saint King’s power, so this precious rune would shatter with one use .
“Brother Yi Roc, help cover me for a moment . When I activate this rune’s power, I’ll be able to destroy him with one punch . ” Prince Luonan put his hands together and his Holy Qi circulated rapidly .
In the distance, there was a soft crack .
The translucent peony was shattered by the spear . It broke into fragments of flames that filled the room .
The Pill Spirit King was deathly pale . She stared at the thin man in the sea of fire as if looking at a death god . Her eyes became clouded with fear .
The man didn’t continue attacking her . Instead, he charged out with his spear and stabbed at Prince Luonan, who was activating the Saint Look Rune .
“Get past me first!”
Yi Roc’s hands transformed into golden claws . He activated the Rules of Saintly Way and performed a mid-level saint spell .
“Flying Roc Breaks the Sea . ”
Not only did he have Rules of Saintly Way, he also had Rules of Truth in his claws . Yi Roc’s power magnified . That claw could probably injure a third step Saint King .
“Ignorant,” the thin man uttered coldly .
Boom!
The spear broke through everything . It penetrated Yi Roc’s claws and chest as if tearing through two pieces of paper, and stabbed Prince Luonan’s forehead .
He severely injured two strong Saint King with one spear .
The Saint Look Rune on Prince Luonan’s forehead was also shattered, becoming ineffective .
Yi Roc and Prince Luonan fell to the ground . One bled from his chest and hands; the other clutched his forehead in extreme pain .
“Assassin Puppets, kill them . ”
The man put away his bloody spear and ordered the two silver balls . Then he walked toward the Pill Spirit King .
The silver balls produced clacking sounds and became two one-meter-tall man-shaped metal killers in the span of half a breath . They wielded double swords and their auras were as strong as a Saint King .
Yi Roc and Prince Luonan weren’t average cultivators . They quickly repressed their injuries and stood up as fast as possible, activating all types of defensive techniques .
“You can actually produce Saint King Assassin Puppets and take out three at once . Who are you?” Prince Luonan’s expression was very uncomfortable .
Assassin Puppets were made out of meteorites, so they were extremely strong .
Plus, the stronger they were, the more time it took to produce them .
Each of the man’s three Assassin Puppets was comparable to a third step Saint King . They probably had to breed in the puppet blood pool for more than 1,000 years and continuously be fed saint soul power to be completed .
Only a murderous heavenly king could control three Assassin Puppets .
One only had one life .
Faced with someone as terrifying as this thin man, the Pill Spirit King, Prince Luonan, and Yi Roc all felt chilled . Death loomed over them .
Earlier, the Pill Spirit King had used all her might to hit the room’s walls, but she couldn’t penetrate them . This made her fall into despair .
Suddenly, the thin man sensed something . He spun around and stared at the dragon male standing in the corner . His eyes narrowed into slits .
He remembered that he’d released three Assassin Puppets . One had gone to attack this dragon .
But only two remained in the room now .
Where did the third Assassin Puppet go?
Since the beginning, the man’s attention was focused on the Pill Spirit King, Prince Luonan, and Yi Roc . He didn’t care about the half-step Saint King at all .
But now, with his instincts as a killer, he realized that the most troublesome one in the room may be this half-step Saint King .
The Pill Spirit King, Prince Luonan, and Yi Roc discovered this strange thing too . They were all surprised .
Earlier, when the silver ball had flown toward Zhang Ruochen, he’d raised the Abyss Ancient Sword .
But the silver ball had vast force and was very hard . Even the Abyss Ancient Sword’s sharpness couldn’t destroy it .
Of course, it also had a weakness .
It was a dead object, controlled by the saint soul power . It wasn’t able to think . It could only follow the man’s orders and kill .
The ball’s terrifying speed wasn’t threatening for Zhang Ruochen either .
Thus, he used spatial freeze to stop the ball of a second . He took advantage of that instant to put it into his Mercury Gourd .
One must mention that after reaching the Saint King Realm, he was able to use the spatial freeze in the Heaven World too .
The thin man stared at Zhang Ruochen . “I didn’t think I would misjudge you,” he said coldly . “You aren’t a half-step Saint King at all . Instead, you’re a dragon king . There are only a few dragon kings in the Truth Heavenly Domain and I’ve recorded them all down . You’re not one of them . ”
In the Dragon Race, anyone who reached the Saint King Realm would be given the title of “dragon king . ”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t answer . He just stood guardedly against the man .
The Pill Spirit King’s almond eyes studied Zhang Ruochen’s Abyss Ancient Sword with a thoughtful gaze .
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t tell me your identity,” the thin man said . “If you hand over the Assassin Puppet and stand to the side, getting out of my way, then I can spare you . After all, killing you won’t benefit me . ”
Naturally, Zhang Ruochen didn’t believe him .
In the beginning, Zhang Ruochen hadn’t planned on getting involved, but the man had released his Assassin Puppet to kill him . It was obvious that this man was murderous and didn’t follow the rules .
Finally, Zhang Ruochen said, “A Assassin Puppet is like a third step Saint King . How can I return something so precious?”
“Since you chose death, I’ll make it easy for you . ”
The man’s eyes turned cold . He took out a gold-threaded bag and opened it . Hundreds of poisonous black insects flew out .
These insects split into three waves .
The largest wave flew toward Zhang Ruochen . The other two went toward Prince Luonan and Yi Roc .
“Ah…it’s…it’s the Trifoot Carnivorous Insect!” Yi Roc cried out in pain .
The Holy Qi that he released was actually eaten up by the black insects . Even his hard golden scales were gnawed through . His other defensive tactics seemed to be useless too .
Crunch, crunch .
The poisonous insects dug into Yi Roc’s body and started gobbling up his flesh .
Only a moment passed and Yi Roc’s body was withered . Only a layer of skin and bones remained . After some more breaths, even the skin and bones on the ground were devoured cleanly .
Seeing this, Zhang Ruochen, the Pill Spirit King, and Prince Luonan felt chills, as if they’d fallen into a chamber of ice .
