"There's an assassin, Brother Li, be careful!"

Lin Fan only realized later that an accident had suddenly occurred.

The space around Li Ming had been imprisoned by some means, so much so that not even a fly could fly out. Upon seeing this, everyone's expression changed. What would they have done if they were in his shoes?

Even the two martial arts masters next to Li Ming paled, as they were caught in the crossfire.

It would take at least a second to break free from this restraint!

In a battle at the level of a martial god, this one second can determine a great deal.

Fortunately, all of these attacks were directed at Li Ming.

In desperation, Lin Fan used a secret treasure to slightly weaken the restraining technique, but he was still unable to move.

"It's over... Huang is probably doomed."

The Martial God of the Nine Yang Sect made this judgment: these assassins are unfathomable and have imprisoned the void, making it almost impossible for Li Ming to escape.

However, something surprising happened.

"brush!"

In the blink of an eye, Li Ming rushed out like a ghost, dodging numerous deadly attacks, and with a single finger strike, shattered the old fisherman's body.

The other party's mind had already been possessed by the primordial spirit of a powerful being, leaving him merely a walking corpse.

Although the void was imprisoned, it could not seal him off; his movements seemed completely unhindered!

"What kind of footwork is this..." Even the assassins widened their eyes, their expressions filled with disbelief.

"Could it be that he has cultivated the legendary Void Sutra?"

"Could this desolate place belong to the Li family, the immortal family of the Central Region?"

A tremendous wave of emotion surged within Qin Xiran's heart.

The Li family of the Central Region was founded by the Void Emperor in the Middle Ages. Their ancestral Void Scripture is a cultivation method created by the Void Emperor, containing the true essence of the Dao of Space. When the cultivation method is perfected, the Dao of Space is cultivated to its extreme, making one invincible from the beginning.

"Even a rat in the gutter can't hide anymore?" Li Ming mocked, not expecting so many others to have such thoughts.

That's it?

That's still a bit lacking!

Li Ming wasn't stupid. He knew that he had revealed his strength to kill a Martial God. If he encountered danger, he would definitely be at the level of a Martial God. However, under normal circumstances, it would still be quite dangerous for him to face a Martial God. Of course, he wouldn't leave the city unprepared.

During his time in the Primordial Divine City, he had advanced to the [Chaotic Azure Lotus Body] and absorbed the enormous benefits brought by the advancement. Although he was still at the Celestial Perfection level, he had gained many more powerful attributes.

【Chaotic Azure Lotus Body (Pale Orange)】: 【A supreme physique unparalleled throughout eternity, capable of nurturing chaotic energy to evolve all things, and also capable of unleashing chaotic power to destroy all things. It is a powerful physique favored by heaven and earth. You will not be suppressed by the laws of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. As long as you do not perish during normal cultivation, you will surely become an emperor among all heavens.】

【Chaotic Heavenly Eye (Pale Orange)】: 【Understanding cause and effect, destroying all laws; one of the innate talents of the Chaotic Azure Lotus Body.】

【Unrestrained (Pale Orange)】: 【Untouched by cause and effect, unaffected by any law, one of the innate talents of the Chaotic Azure Lotus Body.】

Although it cost 300 million life energy, the benefits of the physical advancement were numerous. Not only did the Heavenly Eye directly advance to the same orange rank, but it also gained a brand new orange rank attribute: [Unrestrained].

He was able to break free from this powerful spatial constraint not because he had cultivated the legendary "Void Scripture," but because of the help of this very entry. Otherwise, a month ago, he might have truly been in trouble.

After all, this is a terrifying secret technique that can even bind a martial god; it is extremely powerful!

It can be said that the other party was taking him far too seriously in order to deal with a mere Celestial Realm martial artist!

Fortunately, the rank of "Unrestrained" is extremely high, and such spatial binding methods cannot restrict him at all.

"puff!"

In the next instant, Li Ming had a long sword in his hand. He turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared from his original spot, reappearing in another location. He swung the sharp blade and easily beheaded a black-clad assassin, with blood spurting ten feet high.

[Slay xxx and gain life energy...]

"Don't worry about me, you stay hidden."

Li Ming secretly transmitted his voice to Lin Fan and also asked the Martial God of the Nine Yang Sect to keep an eye on things, while he himself sensed the killing intent around him and tracked the enemy's location.

These assassins were extremely well hidden; even he would have difficulty detecting their presence before they made a move.

"kill!"

A thin figure was issuing commands from the shadows, and his spiritual energy was remarkably similar to that of the old fisherman.

On the riverbank, the surface of the river distorted, and figures appeared silently.

These assassins, whose origins are unknown, were extremely professional. Upon seeing their teammate die, they did not hesitate at all and continued to attack Li Ming.

So ruthless, so indifferent to sacrifice, and with so many methods at his disposal, he is not afraid of his status as the successor of the Great Emperor or the power of the Primordial Divine Dynasty.

Li Ming could only recall the world-renowned assassin force—the Burial Sky Pavilion.

Legend has it that the founder of the Burial Heaven Pavilion was someone who assassinated an Immortal Realm being and then retreated!

Even the lord of a holy land had been successfully assassinated by them several times...

However, Li Ming did not feel fear, but rather excitement. Sensing the surge of killing intent around him, he had only one thought in his mind.

That means... the chives are here, hurry up and harvest them!

Li Ming darted across the river at incredible speed, his movements as graceful as a fairy, making him unpredictable and impossible to pinpoint.

Having cultivated the Azure Emperor's Sky-Stepping Technique and received the bloodline memories of the Golden-Winged Roc, he is now virtually without any weaknesses.

These professional assassins at the Celestial Realm level had many deadly moves, but none of them could hit him or even detect his movements.

Li Ming faced multiple attacks, defeating them one by one with his sword.

He traversed the void repeatedly, piercing the foreheads of seven or eight assassins, leaving them to die with their eyes wide open in disbelief.

These are all beings who have achieved perfect harmony between heaven and humanity.

Each of them was a seeded assassin of the Burial Sky Pavilion, a potential candidate to become the King of Assassins, but they were utterly powerless in the face of Li Ming.

It directly contributed 30 million life energy!

"It's Huang! It's him!"

"He was surrounded by assassins?"

"The Burial Heaven Secret Technique is made by people from the Burial Heaven Pavilion; it's not easy to get them to do it."

"Who hired the assassin? The Qin family? The Nine Yang Sect? Or the Sun Holy Land?"

"Hmph, maybe they invited them together from many holy lands and great sects in the Eastern Region?"

The adventure at the Forgetful River attracted many people, and the commotion of the fight naturally drew a lot of attention. Many heroes from the desolate continent were astonished, never expecting that the successor of the Azure Emperor, who had recently become famous throughout the world, was right before their eyes.

However, many people were gloating, feeling that Huang was too ostentatious and had offended so many forces, so it was only right that he attracted assassins.

"The Burial Heaven Pavilion has probably mobilized quite a few of the most talented assassins of this generation, and even some of the older generation's kings of assassins."

Qin Xiran's phoenix eyes swept across the battlefield, and she instantly analyzed the situation.

However, she had no intention of helping, since the deal was already done and Huang's life or death was none of her concern.

She didn't know who hired the assassin; it certainly wasn't her. She also didn't know if it had anything to do with the Qin family.

The Martial God of the Nine Yang Sect wanted to make a move, but he realized that Peng Xiao of the Peng Clan was watching him intently, so he couldn't make a move.

"Buzz...buzz!"

Just as Li Ming killed four more assassins, a sudden and violent energy fluctuation appeared in the sky above him, and a terrifying, pitch-black giant hand slowly condensed.

As the giant hand grasped the air, the rules of heaven and earth manifested, and chains of the Great Dao intertwined into a net, sealing off Li Ming from all sides.

"laugh!"

At the same time, a dazzling and intense blade light appeared, as bright as a galaxy, its killing intent extremely fierce, shattering the void and slashing straight towards where Li Ming was, its power reaching its peak!

"How dare you!"

The Martial God of the Nine Yang Sect was very close and was the first to sense it; his expression suddenly turned cold.

This is the work of a king of assassins!

In other words, a martial god assassin at the Heaven and Earth Realm!

He was the one who used some kind of secret artifact to seal off the space before!

Peng Xiao sneered, "When the King of Assassins makes a move, even a Martial God cannot escape death. Judging from such methods, he is definitely not an assassin who has just entered the Heaven and Earth Realm. He is at least a master of the third level of the Heaven and Earth Realm."

The experts sent by the Primordial Divine Dynasty to secretly protect Li Ming also changed their expressions, all becoming furious.

But it seems too late to make a move.

This king of assassins is too experienced. He didn't reveal any of his aura when he activated the secret treasure before. Only now that he has really made a move has he revealed it.

His first move was earth-shattering!
