Chapter 2401 - 2401 Assassination
2401 Assassination
“Roar!”
Right then, another resounding dragon roar sounded behind Lin Luo. It penetrated metal and cracked rocks as nine divine dragons tore through the air with a torrential aura!
The nine dragons phenomenon that Lin Luo conjured had already been destroyed by the 12 golden-armored giants. Right now, the nine divine dragons were formed from the nine dragons on the Trinity Auspicious Jade.
Su Zimo did not abandon Lin Luo and snatch the Bodhi seed. Instead, he chose to help!
The nine divine dragons charged towards the 12 golden-armored giants.
At the same time, a gigantic turtle shell appeared. The patterns and ravines on it shone with a blinding and mysterious light as it shielded Lin Luo.
Su Zimo’s other innate divine power, the Spirit Turtle Shield!
Boom!
The Ethereal Palace descended and suppressed the turtle shell with a loud bang.
The turtle shell trembled continuously and flickered—it was clear that it could not hold on!
Right then, Su Zimo waved the fiery red feather fan in his hands and injected Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, slapping Ying Tian and Lang Qianqian!
Phew!
The fan descended and scorching flames burst forth. The flames surged into the skies, forming a firestorm that engulfed Ying Tian and Lang Qianqian instantly!
“Extinguish!”
Ying Tian’s blood qi surged and purple qi surrounded him. He removed a string of jade-white prayer beads on his wrist and circulated his secret skill, shouting.
The prayer beads spun continuously and suddenly transformed into a vast tsunami that collided with the surrounding raging flame storm, evaporating everything into a gigantic fog.
Ying Tian’s prayer beads were made from the bones of immortal whales and were unfathomable. They could even evolve into oceans and immortal whales!
“Condense!”
Ying Tian shouted softly.
The raging flame storm collided with the tsunami and the mist produced condensed continuously. In the blink of an eye, a living being with a terrifying aura appeared in midair.
The body of the living being was way too massive and almost burst the entire palace!
An immortal whale descended with a shocking might and charged towards Lin Luo and Su Zimo.
Su Zimo channeled his Essence Spirit in an unhurried manner and injected the unique Essence Spirit power of the Dragon Phoenix Essence Spirit into the fan in his hands.
This was a Dharmic treasure that Su Zimo chose from the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom after obtaining the top of the Earth Ranking, the Seven Tails Phoenix Feather Fan.
This Dharmic treasure was originally a Pure Yang Spirit Treasure. However, it was severely damaged and its cultivation realm fell. Its power was no longer the same as before.
In the Parasol Tree Secret Ground of the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom, Su Zimo made use of the power of the Parasol Tree Formation to repair the Seven Tails Phoenix Feather Fan.
Although it was still not at the level of a Pure Yang Spirit Treasure, it could already unleash terrifying might!
In order to unleash the power of the Seven Tails Phoenix Feather Fan, one would require the power of the Divine Phoenix race.
Therefore, although this Dharmic treasure had a powerful background, no one chose it until Su Zimo appeared.
Half of Su Zimo’s Essence Spirit was the Dragon Phoenix Essence Spirit!
The power he could release was even purer and stronger than the power of the Divine Phoenix race!
Su Zimo waved the Seven Tails Phoenix Feather Fan once more.
“Screech!”
The moment the fan descended, the sound of a phoenix’s cry sounded in midair.
Immediately after, under the Seven Tails Phoenix Feather Fan, a phoenix that was burning with flames flew out and charged towards the Immortal Whale in midair.
Among the ten thousand races, the collision of two top-tier living beings was earthshaking!
As Su Zimo released those trump cards, he waved the horsetail whip in his hands.
The three thousand threads were extremely sentient and tore through the layers of space, extending continuously. In the blink of an eye, they arrived beside the Bodhi seed and returned the way they came.
Although he could not leave, he could make use of the Dharmic treasure in his hands to seize the initiative and snatch the Bodhi Seed!
Right then, a warning flashed in Su Zimo’s mind!
Swoosh!
A cold light appeared behind him without warning and stabbed towards the back of his head!
If that cold light pierced down, it could pierce Su Zimo’s consciousness instantly and kill his Essence Spirit.
The moment this person attacked, it was a killing move that was fatal!
The timing of the attacker was extremely ingenious.
This was the most intense moment of the fight between Ying Tian, Lang Qianqian, Su Zimo and Lin Luo. Both parties had released multiple divine powers and secret skills in succession. Right now, they were at their weakest and had no time to be distracted.
Su Zimo was not surprised and had a calm expression. He was still controlling the Primordial Unity Horsetail Whip to pull the Bodhi seed over, as though he did not notice the killing intent behind him.
“Watch out!”
From the corner of her eye, Lin Luo caught sight of what was happening and reminded hurriedly.
She was entangled by Lang Qianqian and could not escape at all.
Lin Luo’s voice was still a tad slower.
The moment she warned him, the cold light had already landed on the back of Su Zimo’s head!
Clang!
When the cold light landed on it, the sound of metal clashing echoed instead of breaking through his flesh, brain and bones!
Immediately after, ripples appeared in the void not far away.
A short and skinny figure appeared with a sharp sword in his hands—it was the blue-robed boy with the lowest cultivation realm among the nine of them!
When the nine of them appeared here, the blue-robed boy was only a Grade 1 Heaven Immortal. The difference in strength between him and the others was immense and no one cared about him.
Nobody expected the blue-robed boy to suddenly appear and even dare to attack Su Zimo!
“He’s not a Grade 1 Heaven Immortal, but… a Grade 7 Heaven Immortal!”
Golden Feather and Nie Hun who were watching from the sidelines could not help but exclaim when they detected the blue-robed boy’s cultivation realm.
The blue-robed boy was clearly proficient in assassination and concealment.
A Grade 7 Heaven Immortal assassin might not be strong in head-on combat, but he might be able to assassinate a Grade 8 or even a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal!
It had to be said that the blue-robed boy’s concealment had indeed deceived everyone.
Even Su Zimo had not noticed him.
However, no matter how the blue-robed boy hid his tracks, he could not hide from his spirit perception.
The moment Su Zimo exchanged blows with Ying Tian, he sensed that there was a terrifying expert hidden in the surroundings who was clearly hostile towards him!
Therefore, Su Zimo was long prepared.
On the surface, he was holding the Trinity Auspicious Jade, the Primordial Horsetail Whip, the Trinity Auspicious Jade and the Seven Phoenix Feather Fan only. However, in reality, he had already secretly released the Nine Heavens Living Soil and was prepared to deal with any unexpected situations.
Indeed!
When the blue-robed boy stabbed over, Su Zimo merely used his spirit consciousness and the Nine Heavens Living Soil appeared behind his head, forming a yellow sand barrier.
No matter how sharp the blue-robed boy’s sword was, it could not break through the Nine Heavens Living Soil.
“Earlier on, when I saw this lad retreat to the hall where we came from, I did not think too much about it and thought that he was looking for He Dan and Qi You…”
Nie Hun said in a deep voice, “By the looks of it, He Tan and Qi You have most likely been killed by him!”
The blue-robed boy wanted to escape far away after failing to kill Su Zimo.
However, Su Zimo’s heart was already filled with killing intent!
If such a dangerous assassin were to stay in the Jade Pure Hall, he would be a huge threat!
Su Zimo was prepared to seize the opportunity to kill this threat completely!
“Since you want to assassinate me, don’t leave!”
Su Zimo turned to look at the blurry figure of the blue-robed boy who was about to disappear and said coldly.
