The man in black robes was momentarily taken aback, not understanding why Chen Yuan had suddenly shifted the conversation to something about a 'Dragon's Roar.' Seeing the somewhat bewildered expression on the man's face, Chen Yuan didn't answer. Instead, he placed his hand on the hilt of his saber. In truth, from the moment he entered the inn where Nie Qiyun was staying, Chen Yuan had anticipated a certain possibility. He had quite a few enemies, and perhaps this was a fishing expedition aimed at him. However, he still followed Nie Qiyun for two reasons: first, his strength had increased several times, and he felt capable of fighting even higher-level experts; second, he thought it might just be a guess.

It was impossible for there to be no warning signs. Merely based on a guess, he wouldn't have let Nie Qiyun go alive. But when that armor-piercing arrow was fired, Chen Yuan finally confirmed his earlier suspicion: this was an organized, premeditated assassination attempt, a fishing expedition.

He was the fish!

A strong sense of danger immediately arose in his heart, but danger was accompanied by opportunity. Judging by the previous patterns, Chen Yuan figured it was about time he encountered his own Child of Destiny.

The most urgently needed Dragon Qi should also be showing some signs. Thus, Chen Yuan deliberately fell to the ground, actually intending to launch a surprise attack.

He didn't expect the other party to have already guessed that he was unharmed, and he even learned some information from him. Even if he sensed the danger and chose not to leave South Mausoleum Prefecture,

He would still encounter an ambush.

Because the only person he feared was Tao Qingyuan. As long as he was absent, dealing with him would be no problem at all. Sudan Novel Network

Of course, the Seven Kill Hall did indeed have such arrogant capabilities because the imperial court couldn't find the location of the Seven Kill Hall's headquarters at all. At most, they could only eliminate a few assassins, which wouldn't cause any significant losses to the Seven Kill Hall.

There had been many examples in the past. The Seven Kill Hall's assassins acted in a myriad of ways. Some were unwilling to assassinate and preferred to fight openly. Others would exterminate the entire family when killing someone.

In comparison, the one Chen Yuan encountered was quite normal.

First, they investigated him, then step by step, they lured himself or Tao Qingyuan out through other means, using an armor-piercing arrow to cripple his abilities, making things much easier.

Unfortunately, Chen Yuan wasn't an ordinary person. Although the armor-piercing arrow was powerful, it couldn't penetrate the heart-protecting dragon scales.

There wasn't much to say between Chen Yuan and the assassin in front of him. The assassin would take his head to complete the mission, and he would take the assassin's Destiny to gain guidance.

From the moment the assassin appeared, he had some suspicions. When the assassin exposed his intention to launch a surprise attack, Chen Yuan naturally opened his Celestial Eye.

As expected, nothing unexpected happened. The other party was indeed carrying Destiny.

And Chen Yuan needed the Destiny on him. Sure enough, even if he didn't deliberately seek them out, people carrying Destiny would encounter him in various ways. This was all old experience. These thoughts only occupied a very short instant. After Chen Yuan said, "Have you ever heard of a Dragon's Roar?", before the man in black robes could react,

In the next moment.

A clear and bright Dragon's Roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth, soaring straight into the sky. A terrifying Profound Origin Gang Qi of over ten zhang instantly slashed towards the man in black robes. As soon as he made a move, it was the most thorough killing move.

Faced with a Tongxuan Realm expert, Chen Yuan was confident that he could fight, but he never relaxed his vigilance. Compared to Gang Qi martial artists, Tongxuan martial artists were still far too powerful.

The Gang Qi exuded endless killing intent, directly locking onto the man in black's position as if only that one Gang Qi existed in the world.

"Hmph."

Seeing Chen Yuan attack without saying another word, the man in black robes wasn't too surprised. He was just a little curious about Chen Yuan's courage. Instead of thinking about escaping, he actually wanted to fight.

Although he had only recently entered the Tongxuan Realm, he was definitely not comparable to a Tiangang martial artist. His figure instantly retreated rapidly, opening up a distance of several dozen zhang. Then, the man in black robes lifted his black robe, revealing a completely black curved bow on his back.

The bow was as black as ink, with patterns carved on it. These were killing arrays condensed by formation masters in the martial world, the most powerful of which was the Armor-Piercing Array.

Before breaking through to the Tongxuan Realm, he was the top bronze-ranked assassin of the Seven Kill Hall, and countless Gang Qi martial artists had died at his hands, including some who ranked in the top hundred of the Potential Dragon List.

After breaking through to the Tongxuan Realm, he automatically advanced to become a silver-ranked assassin of the Seven Kill Hall, and Chen Yuan was his first silver-ranked mission.

It had to be said that the assassin tailor-made by the Seven Kill Hall for Chen Yuan was indeed very powerful. Just his Tongxuan cultivation base alone was something that Gang Qi martial artists couldn't compare to.

But considering Chen Yuan's strength and the repeated phenomenon of his strength increasing rapidly, the Seven Kill Hall judged that Chen Yuan was still hiding a lot of his strength. Bronze-ranked assassins had no advantage at all.

Only silver-ranked assassins could kill Chen Yuan without any accidents.

As the man in black robes drew his bow, an arrow, entirely crimson-red, controlled by Gang Qi behind him, fell into the man's hand. Then, he drew the bow and nocked the arrow.

"Break!"

The man in black robes gave a low shout and immediately released his finger. A blood-colored arrow, just like the one that had been shot at Chen Yuan before, suddenly slammed into the Profound Origin Gang Qi.

"Boom!"

There was a muffled groan between heaven and earth. The arrow shattered, the Gang Qi dissipated, and waves of heat swept away, raising dust on the ground. Chen Yuan's full-strength saber strike

And the man in black robes' arrow were both annihilated. At this moment, the struggle between the two could no longer be judged by the boundaries of the Gang Qi Realm. It had completely reached the Tongxuan level. Chen Yuan didn't feel any surprise in the face of this situation. Although his Dragon's Roar was strong, the fact that it was facing a silver-ranked assassin from the Seven Kill Hall meant that the annihilation of both was the best possible outcome.

However, this didn't mean that Chen Yuan was afraid. On the contrary, the sudden appearance of the Tongxuan expert brought great pressure to Chen Yuan, as well as an ever-increasing fighting spirit.

The Qi and blood in his body surged like a rolling river. The Vajra Glazed Body cultivation technique was fully activated, and a touch of dark-golden light instantly covered Chen Yuan's entire body.

Even his fluttering hair seemed to have undergone some slight changes.

The Interdimensional Killing Path was activated, and a strong killing intent filled Chen Yuan's mind. His eyes flashed with red light. Looking from afar, Chen Yuan, standing in the void, was like a demon.

"As expected, it's a Buddhist body-refining technique!"

The man in black robes wasn't surprised. These things had already been understood by the Seven Kill Hall. They even had the same guess as Jinshan Temple's Fanan, that this body-refining technique was likely the famous Vajra Glazed Body.

"However, even the strongest body can't withstand my blood arrows!"

The corners of the man in black robes' mouth under the shadows of his hood curled up slightly, revealing a cruel smile. In the Seven Kill Hall, his name was Blood Arrow. His archery skills were superb, and he had received the true teachings of a certain Dan Realm expert within the Seven Kill Hall.

His archery skills could definitely be considered top-notch. After that, he would reach perfection, comprehend the artistic conception, and then he could truly make his strength soar again. "Second arrow!"

The man in black robes drew his bow and nocked an arrow, concentrating all his attention on Chen Yuan, as if there was a strange connection between them.

And Chen Yuan could also sense this feeling, as if he was being stared at by a soaring eagle with its sharp eyes, treating him as prey. Yan Qing, who was below, knew that he couldn't interfere at the moment, so he retreated far away to watch the battle.

"Die!"

Chen Yuan pointed his long saber straight ahead, and the Gang Qi protecting his body was propped open. There seemed to be an invisible barrier under his feet. He stomped down suddenly, leaping to a higher altitude, intending to cleave the man in black robes from top to bottom.

The huge saber light was tens of meters wide, blocking the entire vision of the man in black robes.

But he didn't panic in the slightest. Following his own rhythm, he suddenly shot an arrow, as if the surrounding heaven and earth's Yuan Qi were stirred up and wrapped around the arrow.

With a bang, the saber light that Chen Yuan slashed out shattered like before. Immediately afterward, the second arrow shot out again, and its power became even stronger. This time, the saber light that Chen Yuan slashed out no longer annihilated along with it. Instead, the arrow directly shattered the Gang Qi. Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows and held the saber in front of him with both hands.

"Bang!"

A terrifyingly powerful force acted on the saber. Almost at the moment of the collision, Chen Yuan felt that the wild goose feather saber in his hand was somewhat overwhelmed. "Ding!"

The saber rang. Chen Yuan knocked the blood arrow away, but at the same time, he was also pushed back several zhang.

Looking at the shallow marks on the wild goose feather saber, Chen Yuan frowned. This was a treasured saber given by Zhang Xuan, mixed with several rare materials. It was very precious.

He didn't expect that it would be unable to support him just at this stage.

"Continue!"

Chen Yuan was silent. At the moment he was knocked back, he quickly reacted. The other party's archery skills were superb, and with the blessing of that bow, it was indeed powerful.

But don't let him get close, otherwise, he would definitely hammer him to death.

And he seemed to sense this as well, not letting Chen Yuan get close at all, but repeatedly shooting blood arrows. The surrounding heaven and earth Yuan Qi churned, and the arrows seemed to be engraved with formations, able to obtain the blessing of heaven and earth Yuan Qi.

It had to be said that this was probably the biggest trouble Chen Yuan had encountered. In the past, his opponents were at most a small level stronger than him, and he could fight them without any problem.

But this time, the Seven Kill Hall assassin that Chen Yuan was facing was a whole great realm stronger than him.

And he also had a superb archery skill.

Big trouble!

This was an idea in Chen Yuan's mind. No matter where he attacked from, the other party's blood arrows seemed to be equipped with radar, and could even predict his next move, taking the lead!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Three consecutive explosive and terrifying sounds erupted, and the heat waves scattered Chen Yuan's originally tied-up long hair, turning it into a state of disheveled long hair.

Another Dragon's Roar. Chen Yuan poured in all his strength. The Blood Fiend Saber continued to surge, gathering extreme Yin Blood Fiend, and the Xuan Yang Divine Crystal was also replenishing Chen Yuan's consumption at a very fast speed. After a hard battle, Chen Yuan even had some control over the surrounding heaven and earth Yuan Qi.

"Kill!"

As if he was blinded by killing intent, Chen Yuan had only less than eighty meters left between him and the man in black robes after several head-on collisions. He was already within reach.

And the Seven Kill Hall assassin also seemed to be a little flustered. His figure kept retreating, and he crazily drew his bow. Arrows were already running low.

Between heaven and earth, the Dragon's Roar trembled, and blood arrows shattered. Chen Yuan successfully shattered a blood arrow that was speeding towards his chest. He took a step forward, holding the saber with both hands, Interdimensional Killing Path!

Gathering all the power of his own killing intent and fiendish energy, the power completely surpassed the Dragon's Roar. Chen Yuan successfully slashed out with this saber. What if he was a Tongxuan Realm expert? At this moment, Chen Yuan's thoughts were clear. He just wanted to kill the guy in front of him! Seeking monthly votes.
