The sudden kick completely froze Zi Mu's excited heart.
The other party had appeared at the perfect time. It was obvious that he had been waiting for this moment. From his words, it seemed that he did not know Zi Mu's target. It was obvious that the other party had been secretly monitoring Zi Mu and had only acted when Zi Mu revealed his intentions.
Zi Mu's cultivation level was not high, but his soul was at Level Six. He had been on high alert along the way. In the end, he was followed by someone but he did not hear anything. The difference in strength between the two parties was obvious. For a moment, Zi Mu, who was lying on the ground, did not even have the intention to resist. He could only sigh inwardly.
The person looked at Zhi Xin and did not rashly pluck the herb. He turned his head and stared at Zi Mu.
Because his interrogation of Lu Ping had yielded no results, he did not immediately take action after catching up to Zi Mu. Instead, he had been following him in secret. When he saw Zi Mu plucking Zhi Xin as if he had found a treasure, he, who had been waiting for this moment for a long time, could not wait to make his move.
But now, he regretted it.
Was the other party's goal really just this stalk of herb?
He could have continued to monitor Zi Mu and see if he had any other intentions. But his long-awaited action had caused him to lose the opportunity to continue. If he wanted to understand everything, he could only rely on Zi Mu. Thinking about his failure in interrogating Lu Ping, his original joy was immediately overshadowed.
He could only hope that this kid would not be as stubborn as Lu Ping. As he thought about it, he slowly walked towards Zi Mu.
Zi Mu's eyes revealed fear. This expression made the masked man feel very satisfied. He felt that things would probably go smoothly this time. But then, he suddenly saw a hint of surprise in the other party's eyes.
This surprise only appeared for a moment and was quickly concealed by Zi Mu. But the masked man, who had been scheming to break through Zi Mu's mind, was completely focused on every detail of Zi Mu's actions. Although Zi Mu concealed it quickly, the masked man still saw it clearly. He could even see the direction of the surprise.
Was there something behind him?
The masked man immediately made this judgment. He moved sideways without hesitation. He turned his head. He did not care if this was Zi Mu's diversion, because in his eyes, Zi Mu was not a threat at all.
However, when the masked man turned around and saw who was behind him, he was shocked. He saw a tree stick as thick as the mouth of a bowl sweep towards him from the top of his head. However, on the tree stick, there was a sharp gust of wind. However, there was not the slightest bit of soul power.
How could his attacks be so crude? That was why the masked man was shocked. If it was an attack with the power of a normal soul, he wouldn't have made such a fuss.
However, the masked man had already raised his finger. His movement was much faster than the tree stick that was sweeping towards him. Then, with a cracking sound, the tree stick, which was as thick as the mouth of a bowl, suddenly broke into a pile of rotten firewood in the air. Only then did the masked man notice the childish kid who had swung the stick at him. His face was instantly filled with surprise.
Lu Ping?
He couldn't believe that the brat who had the Death Knell's time limit of three seconds was standing right in front of him.
Lu Ping was still holding the broken tree stick in his hand. His right hand was dripping with blood. He sighed, as if he was very disappointed that his strike did not hit the masked man. He looked at Zi Mu with a look of reproach. He looked at Zi Mu, as if he was regretful. If it wasn't for Zi Mu's glance that revealed a flaw, he would have been hit hard with the rod.
Was that possible?
Although the masked man found it ridiculous, he thought about it and realized that it was possible. This was because he did not detect Lu Ping, who had approached him from behind. This was all because Lu Ping did not have any soul power. The masked man was too strong. He was so strong that he did not have to rely on his five senses to be on guard. Instead, he had to use his soul power, which was even more sensitive.
This was undoubtedly a more effective method against cultivators. As for ordinary people, there was no need to be on guard. Firstly, there was no need to be on guard. Secondly, it wasn't as if ordinary people didn't have Soul Power. They could use their soul power to sense their presence and actions.
In the end, Lu Ping's soul power was completely sealed. The masked man did not think that he would have to defend against Lu Ping. In a situation where he was completely focused on interrogating Zi Mu, he really did not notice such an ordinary and crude sneak attack from behind him. If not for Zi Mu's gaze, which made him wary, this rod would have most likely hit the back of his head. Although the damage was negligible, being hit by such an attack would be extremely embarrassing. However, the masked man was not in the mood to think about this problem.
However, he wasn't in the mood to dwell on this issue. He was more concerned about how Lu Ping had managed to survive after being struck by his Death Knell.
Without hesitation, the masked man attacked again. He used the same method as before. The Death Knell struck Lu Ping's body again.
This move again?
Lu Ping, who could not dodge, was hit by the attack. He immediately realized that this was the special ability that he had experienced before. He was worried that the masked man might have other tricks up his sleeves. This attack was exactly what he wanted. This time, he did not intend to wait for the bell to ring before defending himself. If the soul power continued to drill into his body, he would be injured. However, because of his experience of being experimented on in the organization, he was able to endure this kind of pain. If it was any other cultivator, the three seconds of the Death Knell would be enough for them to collapse without any resistance.
Quickly, Lu Ping gathered his soul power.
It was not to use it, but to create a gap in the Ecstasy Lock.
Lu Ping's speed in controlling the soul power went without saying. In an instant, the Ecstasy Lock was thrown out of the gap. In an instant, the Ecstasy Lock sensed the soul power that was wreaking havoc in Lu Ping's body. In an instant, the Ecstasy Lock seemed to have opened up a net. The soul power that was still executing the Death Knell in Lu Ping's body was captured in one fell swoop. However, even after being imprisoned by the Ecstasy Lock, they were still completing their custom-made arrangements. After three seconds, under the confinement of the Ecstasy Lock, a deep bell rang.
Dang … Dang …
This was … two sounds?
Although Lu Ping could not steal the soul power out, he was still very sensitive to the soul power that was imprisoned. He could clearly hear that there were two sounds of the bell ringing at the same time, one strong and one weak. The strong sound was the same as what he had experienced before, but he did not know where the weak sound came from. One was strong while the other was weak. The eruption of the Death Knell seemed to have happened twice.
What was going on?
The new situation made Lu Ping a little stunned. However, the masked man in front of him was even more dumbfounded.
Lu Ping carefully sensed the changes of the Death Knell under the confinement for three seconds. The masked man, on the other hand, felt that the Death Knell he had used on Lu Ping was like a stone sinking into the ocean.
One, two, three …
He did not give up and waited for another three seconds.
Nothing. Nothing. The Death Knell, which should have erupted and torn Lu Ping to shreds, unexpectedly disappeared quietly. It disappeared without a trace.
When he saw Lu Ping's bewildered expression, he realized something.
He suddenly took a few steps back, his eyes like lightning as he looked around.
"Who is this expert?" he asked in a low voice.
From his perspective, there was obviously someone secretly helping him and dispelling his Death Knell. But to be able to dispel it so calmly, the strength of this person made him feel a little embarrassed.
The person who could so easily dispel his custom-made superpower was Li Yaotian, one of the seven academicians, Alioth Planet's Li Yaotian.
This guess made him even more panicked.
