Xu Cheng fled into the distance and Su Zimo retracted his Black Tortoise phenomenon as well.
Maintaining the Jin Dan phenomenon continuously consumed a lot of spirit energy. Now that the situation was set, there was no need for Su Zimo to continue maintaining the Jin Dan phenomenon to roam freely.
However, the moment he retracted his Black Tortoise phenomenon, he sensed a strong sense of danger that was close at hand!
Su Zimo did not have time to take a look.
The timing of the attack was impeccable – it was when his defenses were the weakest and he was the most relaxed!
There was no one else within a hundred feet of him and Xu Cheng in their battle.
Su Zimo had not expected that someone would be able to sneak up to him silently and attack without warning!
Instantly, a chilling killing intent enveloped him!
If he had not cultivated the Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness and cultivated his unfathomable spirit perception, Su Zimo would have died on the spot before he could react!
This was a perfect assassination!
Although he did not take a look, a figure appeared in Su Zimo's mind. Her clothes were blurry and her appearance was ever-changing. At times, it was a woman, at other times, it was a child and at other times, it was an old man …
It was an assassin of Hidden Death Sect!
Only legacy disciples of Hidden Death Sect would have such sharp eyesight and be able to unleash such a terrifying assassination!
Su Zimo had fought with the most outstanding successors of Hidden Death Sect twice and each time, it was extremely dangerous.
20 years ago, Su Zimo killed the Thousand-faced Assassin beneath the Human Emperor's Palace!
To think that the assassin of Hidden Death Sect would come knocking on his door once more in the ancient battlefield, trying to take Su Zimo's life the moment she attacked!
"Ah!"
A series of exclamations sounded from the crowd.
"Young Master …"
"First!"
"Brother Su, watch out!"
Little Fox, Linghu and the others could not make a move in time and could only shout.
Lin Xuanji had just taken half a step forward when he stopped in his tracks.
It was too late.
Nobody could save Su Zimo.
The assassin's sword was only inches away from Su Zimo!
A deep look of fear flashed through Lin Xuanji's eyes. That was the scary part about legacy disciples of Hidden Death Sect!
If he had been in Su Zimo's shoes during this assassination attempt, the odds would have been against him!
It might not be a big deal to mess with a normal Cultivator.
But if you provoke an assassin, unless one of you really dies, you won't be able to rest in peace for a period of time in the future!
You don't know when he will appear, so you have to be on guard at all times.
He might not be nearby, but he might be right next to you, like a ghost in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to launch a fatal attack!
This kind of mental torture was extremely terrifying, and most cultivators would not be able to withstand it.
Buzz!
At the critical moment, Su Zimo shouted loudly and chanted in Sanskrit. His voice was powerful and powerful, and his Qi and blood surged like a thunderclap that reverberated endlessly!
The Musical Assassination Technique was almost instantaneous.
At this juncture of life and death, the Musical Assassination Technique was the only thing that could save Su Zimo!
When he heard the Sanskrit, the assassin shuddered.
Even legacy disciples of Hidden Death Sect were not outstanding in terms of combat strength. The Sanskrit was released in a hurry and might not have much of an impact on Xu Cheng.
However, it had a huge impact on the assassin of Hidden Death Sect!
The sword in the assassin's hands paused for a moment!
However, right after, the assassin channeled Hidden Death Sect's secret skill and suppressed the surging Qi and blood in his body. He raised his sword and stabbed straight for Su Zimo's back!
The pause did not even last for half a breath.
For most cultivators, they could not react in time at all.
However, Su Zimo had his spirit perception warning him to begin with. Now that he was presented with this fleeting opportunity, how could he miss it?
Splash!
His Qi and blood surged.
Instantly, Su Zimo's body expanded by more than ten feet and his clothes burst, revealing his flesh that seemed like it was made of molten steel!
Although the change seemed useless, in reality, due to the growth of Su Zimo's body, the position of his heart had already deviated! Tsk!
Tsk! Tsk!
The thin sword in the assassin's hands shone with six spirit patterns – it was a connate spirit weapon and was extremely sharp!
However, when the thin sword pierced Su Zimo's flesh, it encountered tremendous resistance and let out a strange sound.
Although the thin sword was halfway in, it did not hit any vitals.
Furthermore, when the assassin wanted to pull out his sword, he realized that the sword in his hands was almost crushed by Su Zimo's flesh and tendons!
The next moment, a palm the size of a fan descended from the skies and a huge shadow blanketed the skies!
"How dare you!"
Su Zimo hollered and retaliated without caring about his injuries!
He was truly enraged by the assassination attempt this time round!
Thankfully, he still had some strength left in his fight with Xu Cheng.
If he was truly up against an opponent like Di Yin, it would be way too fatal with a powerful enemy like the assassin hiding beside him!
He had to kill this person with his palm!
Right then, right at this moment!
The assassin made a prompt decision without any hint of panic in his eyes. He abandoned his thin sword and turned to flee into the distance without touching the ground.
The assassin's movement technique was like a phantom and could disappear from one's sight if one was not careful!
"You're still trying to escape?"
Su Zimo pulled out his sword and stuffed it into his storage bag casually.
A stream of blood spewed out but Su Zimo was oblivious to it.
His physical body was too strong. It wouldn't take long for him to recover from such an injury. It wouldn't affect him too much.
In a flash, Su Zimo chased in the direction of the assassin's escape.
"Om! Ma! Ni! Pa! Mi! Ha! "
Su Zimo spoke with a thunderous voice and the six syllables of the Daming Mantra were released instantly!
A single Sanskrit word was enough to affect the assassin.
Now that all six syllables of the Daming Mantra were released, an extremely terrifying power was formed in the voids instantly!
A Buddhist light flashed and Sanskrit echoed endlessly!
"Pfft!"
Against the reverberation of the Sanskrit word, the assassin spat out a mouthful of blood and was forced to reveal himself.
"You're far inferior to the thousand-faced assassin!"
Before the sentence was finished, Su Zimo had already descended behind the person. Reaching out, he clenched his fist and punched the assassin's back heavily!
Snap!
The tremendous power almost penetrated him and the assassin's sternum protruded in a frightening manner!
That punch severed the assassin's life completely!
Thud!
The assassin fell straight to the ground.
Su Zimo arrived beside him and kept his storage bag before reaching out to flip the assassin's corpse over.
The assassin was dead and could no longer sustain Hidden Death Sect's secret skill, so he naturally revealed his true appearance.
He was an extremely ordinary person.
He could not be any more ordinary.
No one would notice someone like that if they were thrown into a crowd.
Su Zimo had seen this person's appearance earlier on. However, as long as he closed his eyes, there was no trace of this person's appearance in his mind!
Such a person was a natural born assassin!
Unfortunately, he chose the wrong prey!
