Killing intent was different from Soul Power or special abilities. It was born from one's heart, and was emitted from one's senses. It was the hardest thing to control. However, to Gui Wulie, retracting it in an instant was as easy as eating beans.
At this moment, as their eyes met, a chilling glint flashed across Gui Wulie's eyes.
Whoosh!
Gui Wulie's figure flashed. This time, even Grai was unable to see the movement of the latter's legs. All he felt was that his opponent had already rushed towards him like a bolt of lightning!
What a fast speed!
At this level of speed, it was extremely hard to keep up with one's naked eye. One had to rely on their senses. However, Gui Wulie, who had concealed his killing intent, appeared to have formed a layer of isolation barrier around his body, causing Grai's senses to unknowingly slow by a beat.
Originally, it was just the same speed and eruption of power as before. However, the feeling that it gave Grai was even faster and stronger than before!
Ding Ding Ding Ding!
There was completely no opportunity or angle for him to evade, and the only thing he could do was to face it head on. Be it his attack speed or movement speed, both of them were more than a notch higher than before!
However, Grai still maintained a calm and indifferent expression on his face.
Soul Power surged within his body, causing his speed, which had been suppressed due to him not being able to adapt to it, to instantly increase by a notch!
The laymen in the audience were already unable to see exactly where his hands were, as they were so fast that they appeared to be convulsing!
Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding ~ ~ ~
Chilling glints intersected, as clashing sounds rang out. Although Gui Wulie's speed had already increased, he was still the one being suppressed. What's more, Grai had used a strange backhanded blade, a technique that basically didn't exist in the Federation's academies.
It was a rather old-fashioned assassin combat technique, and had been eliminated even by the Gui Family. However, the backhanded blades were like a mirage as they chopped down at a high frequency, causing his sharp claws to fall into a disadvantage.
Frankly speaking, this was definitely a provocation towards the Gui Family, as they had actually dared to provoke the ancestors of assassins! A fierce glint flashed across Gui Wulie's eyes.
Whoosh!
A strange power exploded out, causing ripples to surface in the air. In the next instant, Gui Wulie had disappeared without a trace!
Where did he go? Concealment?
Although he was unable to see it with his naked eyes, Grai had already managed to capture Gui Wulie's movements at the instant when the strange energy exploded out.
Dimensional combat techniques … Gui Wulie, who had entered the Dimensional Advance state, was so quick that he was only a dim shadow. However, this time, he did not hastily launch an attack. Clearly, he was searching for an opportunity to deal a fatal blow. Frankly speaking, if they weren't in the arena, his combat techniques would definitely be more suitable for assassination, as he would definitely be able to defeat people much stronger than him.
However, Gui Wulie had used the "Dimensional Entanglement". In this state, it was basically impossible for one to attack. Furthermore, it was even easier for one to make a mistake in one's judgement. Furthermore, one's position in the Dimensional Entanglement state wasn't sufficient to be used as a standard for one's judgement, especially with such speed. Clearly, this was much more brilliant than the Dimensional Charge that Gui Wulie had used in the previous duel. This also reflected the importance the Gui Family had placed in this duel.
Grai's decision was correct. Clearly, any random movements would be equivalent to courting death. He needed to wait for the instant Gui Wulie launched his attack before revealing his position. This was a test of the reaction time of both parties.
Dimensional combat techniques were indeed something that would cause people to feel despair in the Casted Soul Stage. The more complicated a Dimensional combat technique was, the harder it would be to counter it. This was the standard of the Gui Family, this was the S + rank. Everyone held their breaths, as everyone knew that this duel was too important for Tianjing. Even Wang Zhong did not have the confidence to deal with Martial Ghost Divine Emperor. Therefore, Grai definitely had to win this duel.
On the stage, Gui Wulie still did not choose to launch an attack. Everyone knew that staying in the Dimensional Advance for a long period of time was extremely taxing on one's Soul Power and physical strength. What was he waiting for?
Just at this moment, a strange change occurred to Gui Wulie, who was in the midst of the Dimensional Entanglement. The afterimages that had been moving at high speed had unexpectedly formed a line, forming a dark halo, while Gui Wulie had completely disappeared.
All of the assassins present in the arena were dumbfounded. What the hell was that? That can't be!
Comprehending a Dimensional combat technique was already extremely awesome, with the Dimensional Entanglement taking a step forward. However, using it to the level of a fatal ring of life and death … completely leaving no way out!
The Gui Family supporters instantly turned high. Faced against an S + rank, any dark horse would be beaten into a black donkey!
Under such a situation, Gui Wulie could attack at will, without worrying about being discovered. This move was unparalleled within the Casted Soul Stage …
Just at this moment, Grai, who had remained motionless all this while, suddenly sent a palm out. His palm lit up with the golden runic array that was unique to him. However, there was no direction or judgement as it smashed towards the Dimensional Ring of Life and Death … wasn't this fucking opening a hole? Was he courting death?
If he did not move, there would still be some threat. However, if he moved, all of his flaws would be exposed …
HUMM ~ ~ ~ The runic array exploded against the Dimensional Ring of Life and Death.
BANG! The seemingly empty space suddenly rippled, as a transparent figure was smacked out from the ripples, before falling out!
Everyone's jaws dropped. Gui Wulie's figure had actually been smacked out from the Dimensional state! Oh my god … what kind of ability was that?
However, Grai was already prepared for this. With a distance of less than 3 metres between them, a chilling glint radiated from his dagger in all directions as it instantly shot towards Gui Wulie. Clearly, the astonished Gui Wulie never imagined that he would be smacked out from the Dimensional state. He had never heard of such a technique before. However, the Gui Family's training and the ability to react that he had honed through life and death situations allowed him to block Grai's dagger despite being in a disadvantageous situation. This caused him to break out in cold sweat. Ever since his debut, he had undertaken various kinds of assassination missions and encountered various kinds of dangers. However, this was the first time that he had made such a huge mistake in judgement.
Not wanting to miss out on this opportunity, Grai took advantage of his opponent's sway to instantly erupt with 2 chilling glints, before shooting towards Gui Wulie! Ding!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Grai's pursuit was quick, while Gui Wulie's defence was quick as well. As he did so, he retreated. The path of an assassin wasn't about head-on confrontation. On the contrary, the path of a ghost was to avoid the opponent's attack. In what seemed like 2 seconds later, Gui Wulie had completely regained his calm, not caring about the combat technique that he was so proud of being destroyed.
Despite having his momentum broken, his figure being sent flying back, and having nowhere to exert his strength, he was still able to execute a perfect defence!
However, he had still underestimated Grai. His 2 daggers sparkled with a dazzling white glow, while his Soul Power surged to its limits in an instant!
In an instant, he unleashed his accumulated power – Stacking X Slash!
Humm ~ ~ ~ The intense vibrations caused the daggers to emit sharp vibrating sounds.
BANG …
A shockwave visible to the naked eye rippled out in the air, while dazzling sparks blossomed from the point of contact between the daggers and the steel claws!
The entire stadium seemed to faintly tremble from the collision!
A figure shot out from the point of contact between the 2 like a cannonball!
Whoosh …
Gui Wulie's figure pressed against the ground with a single hand, while his entire body spun and slid a dozen metres across the stage before dissipating the force of the collision!
Gui Wulie's arms had already turned slightly numb from the impact.
In fact, there was even a split second where he felt that it would be hard for him to continue. What terrifying strength! What a frightening combo!
His expression remained cold and detached, with not a single ripple of emotion present on his face. However, his heart had already turned the heavens and earth upside down!
Such tyrannical strength, such coherent techniques, such absolute speed! What's even more frightening was the fact that he had instantly broken through his dimensional dash! Clearly, everyone had underestimated the capabilities of this runic array that had transformed nothing into reality. If this brat was allowed to leave this place alive, he would be able to establish his own sect!
How had he only underestimated him? The understanding he had of Grai before the start of this match was basically a grave mistake!
Grai did not chase after Gui Wulie in a greedy manner.
Although his opponent had been caught off guard by Gui Wulie's sneak attack and had been suppressed all this while, there wasn't the slightest bit of confusion in his retreat.
Gaden, Zhao Tianlong, Alasi and the others that he had met in the earlier stages of the CHF were already considered to be very strong. However, if they were to be compared to Gui Wulie, without talking about their strength, their mental state and combat awareness were basically not even worthy of carrying Gui Wulie's shoes!
The smile on Grai's face grew wider, while his fighting intent grew stronger by a notch. He was starting to look forward to seeing his opponent's trump card.
Strength would never be the most important component of one's combat prowess. A genuine fight wasn't just for show, nor was it about people exchanging moves and techniques. In a life and death fight, as long as the disparity in strength wasn't too great, an instant change in mental state was more than enough to determine victory or defeat! As for the person before him, Gui Wulie definitely possessed the ability to use his mental state to harvest his opponent!
Indeed, there was a huge disparity between S + members and S + members. This was a difference in realm.
The entire stadium instantly erupted into world-shaking cheers. What did they see? An advanced dimensional combat technique! What's more, Grai's casual and effortless dismantling of it had caused a bunch of love-struck girls to go crazy. Not only did they want to look at one's face, they also wanted to look at one's strength. While looking at one's strength, one also needed to look at one's aesthetics. Grai's combat technique, the golden runic array, was brimming with beauty!
This was completely different from yesterday's Giant God Peak!
Although he had lost, he still wanted to continue fighting. What's more, he had already secured a spot in the top 8. Similarly, it was impossible for Tianjing to pass this stage. In fact, they might even end up in an even more miserable state. However, things didn't seem to be going according to the script he had imagined. Why was this Grai even stronger than he had expected? Every single time he had tried to determine what he had done, he would discover that he wasn't even able to do anything new. Instead, he had discovered a new ability.
Although the fight was still in a stalemate, everyone could clearly feel that the arrogant aura that Gui Wulie had displayed when he had walked up had been suppressed. This was the strength that could truly contend against an S +!
"His highness Grai's really too handsome when he uses his dagger!"
"Our male god is invincible! Our Tianjing squadron is invincible! "The Tianjing supporters instantly cheered up." Go, Grai! Get rid of another Mo's List! "
"Grai is mighty! Mo's List assassin! "
Berserk roars rang out from the Tianjing supporters in the stadium. Due to his few defeats, Grai had received a lot of doubt, with people doubting whether he was able to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the CHF. What's more, he had been continuously targeted, causing countless people to be on tenterhooks in the face of the Gui Family. However, from the looks of it, at the very least, he wouldn't be suppressed.
"Wulie should get a little more serious." A faint smile appeared on Gui Hao's face as he said, "If this person can't be used by us, then we can't keep him around."
Grai's performance had surprised them, though his strength wasn't enough to make them fear him. It was just that there was a problem with the runic combat techniques he had created. Once his potential and talent were valued, he would definitely be able to make a big fuss in the future. If he couldn't be absorbed into the Tianjing Squadron, regardless of whether he was roped in by the Parliament or other aristocratic families, it would be better for him to die.
Gui Xinying opened her mouth, though she didn't say anything in the end. On the other hand, the other squadron members had expressions that seemed to be as it should be.
The entire stadium was enveloped in an atmosphere of berserk cheering for Grai. Noticing Gui Hao's hand gesture, Gui Wulie was about to unleash a killing blow. Clearly, Gui Hao didn't feel that Grai would be used by them. That meant that this person was even more of a threat than Wang Zhong. What other environment could be more clean than the CHF battlefield?
Gui Wulie licked his lips. He really liked this kind of rhythm. Originally, he had wanted to leave this surprise for Stuart or the Heaven's Fate Academy. However, a perfect prey like Grai was also extremely tasty.
Maintaining his posture of raising his hand, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.
In the next instant, a sliver of strange colour appeared within those cold and emotionless eyes of his.
It was a devilish dark-yellow colour, so yellow that it caused people's hearts to tremble!
In the next instant, a similar dark-yellow colour started to appear on his skin, as the ancient bloodline started to boil within his blood, igniting his Soul Power.
In the next instant, the Soul Power on the surface of his skin appeared to have turned into boiling water, as large yellow bubbles started to churn and swell up on his body. At the same time, a pungent odour rapidly pervaded the air, before spreading out in all directions!
"What's that! It's so disgusting!"
"It seems to be some kind of bloodline!"
As his Soul Power churned, Gui Wulie's entire body radiated with an aura that would prevent any life from approaching him. This definitely wasn't something that could be brought about by terror, but the aura radiating from his Soul Power.
The audience and various experts that were still immersed in Grai's miraculous runic hand seals were instantly intimidated by the yellow-tinged bloodline mutation. That's because the patterns that had appeared on Grai's body were too ghastly to look at. There was only one kind of life form that could achieve this, and only one kind of bloodline could inherit it ~
The Loathe Beast bloodline, inherited from the frightening dimensional life form that had once caused countless bloodbaths in the history of the Federation. Its name was Loathe Beast!
It possessed strength that was between the 8th and 9th rank Sovereigns, and had seemingly destroyed everything in its path. The people of the Federation could be said to have a deep hatred for this famous pseudo Sovereign, as its frightening strength would often cause the Federation to pay an enormous price in order to exterminate it. However, that wasn't the end of it. What was even more frightening was the fact that it would spread a fatal virus wherever it went, spreading it like a plague, causing the people of the Federation to feel their hair stand on end.
However, there was actually someone who had inherited the bloodline of such a frightening life form?!
Countless people were dumbfounded. If one were to claim that this was a naturally awakened bloodline of Gui Wulie, one might be able to deceive ordinary people. People like Carolyn and Vladimir wouldn't believe a single word of it!
Any aristocratic family that had walked through the dark era would have some secrets, and even experiments that couldn't see the light of day. Being an ancient assassin family, the Gui Family was even more unscrupulous. It was only during the radiant era that they gradually restrained themselves. However, that didn't mean that they were lacking in strength.
Gulp!
Gui Wulie fiercely sucked in a breath of air. His yellow blistered skin appeared incomparably supple, while his entire neck and stomach suddenly swelled up by 2 times, appearing to be filled with gas!
Puff!
Without the slightest hesitation, a mouthful of fishy yellow poisonous gas shot out like a sharp arrow, heading straight for Grai!
With a flash, Grai dodged it by a hair's breadth. However, what followed was even more poisonous gas!
Puff Puff Puff Puff Puff!
Gui Wulie's swollen neck and stomach rapidly shrunk, while the yellow poisonous gas shot out in all directions. After all, he wasn't a specialised ranged soldier. Therefore, his shots appeared to be slightly crooked, with insufficient accuracy, allowing Grai to easily dodge them. However, in the next second, everyone realised that something was amiss.
