Killing a Jonin!

"Buzz~"

Seeing the Bloodthirsty Bead, exuding a fierce aura, coming towards him, the Stone Ninja who had ambushed Shunren from behind also changed his expression, his steps faltered, and he decisively retreated.

"Pfft~" The Bloodthirsty Bead's attack missed, but the aftershocks it emitted caused the lush grass on the ground to wither instantly!

"Chop!" Shunren shook his hands, forcefully knocking away the Stone Ninja in front of him, but the latter was relentless, releasing his steel sword and forming hand seals.

A violent tremor came from beneath his feet, Shunren immediately jumped up.

"Earth Release Technique: Earthquake Core!"

Shunren somersaulted in mid-air, avoiding the protruding boulder.

However, the Stone Ninja changed their hand seals, unleashing "Wind Release: Absorption Seal!"

With a grasp of his palm towards the Shunren in the sky, a reverse gust of wind pulled the Shunren towards the protruding boulder.

Shunren's heart sank slightly. As expected, how could a Jonin not be proficient in a few Ninjutsu?

With the blessing of the Bloodthirsty Bead, Shunren was able to temporarily gain the power to contend with Jonin, but he had very little combat experience, not to mention that the enemies in front of him were two Jonin!

Just as Shunren's footsteps landed on the boulder, another Stone Ninja suddenly emerged from the rock.

"The other one is hiding in the Earth Release, just as I thought..." Shunren had already vaguely sensed the Chakra hidden in the boulder with his Mind's Eye, which is why he tried to avoid it. He just didn't expect that the enemy Stone Ninja would also know Wind Release.

"Clang!" The Stone Ninja burst forth from the rock, wielding a steel blade, and thrust it at Shunren.

Shunren immediately swung his sword and slashed!

"Clang~" The heavy Steel Release made Shunren's palm go numb. His heart tightened, and he saw that the Bloodthirsty Bead floating beside him had more cracks, and the power he received in his body was gradually weakening.

"Hmph! Just as I thought. Although I don't know what secret technique you used to forcibly increase your strength, such methods must have limitations, right?" The Jonin knowledgeable and wise, unlike the brainless villains in other novels.

Shunren manipulated the Bloodthirsty Bead, transforming it into a scarlet arrow that shot towards his opponent. However, the latter reacted swiftly, retreating immediately upon missing its target, showing no intention of engaging the Bloodthirsty Bead head-on.

"No matter how powerful a ninja tool is, it's meaningless if you can't hit it!" With that, the other party grabbed, and the steel sword in his hand transformed into a javelin, which he hurled at Shunren!

"Clang clang~" Shunren threw out his two hands' worth of Kanshou and Bakuya, knocking away the opponent's sharp javelin.

"Whoosh~" Body Flicker Technique! Another Stone Ninja took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack from behind. This coordination, one in front and one behind, one advancing and one retreating, was quite perfect.

By this time, Shunren tried to return by manipulating the Bloodthirsty Bead, but it was too late. Besides, his control over the Bloodthirsty Bead was far from proficient.

A blue-gold amulet appeared on her wrist.

Arcane Shift!

At the crucial moment, Shunren projected Ezreal's weaponry and used spatial jump to avoid the sneak attack from behind.

"Earth Release: Earth Spear!"

However, what awaited him was yet another barrage of sharp Earth Spear rising from the ground!

Shunren's amulet extended into a transparent wrist bow, "Mystic Shot!"

A blue energy projectile shot out from the wrist bow, destroying several Earth Spear.

At the same time, the wrist bow in Shunren's hand released another golden energy blast, different from the previous one, "Essence Flux!"

The enemy reacted swiftly, immediately pressing his hands to the ground, and summoned a steel wall in front of him that was several times harder than the Earth Style Wall Steel Release: Steel Wall!

"This can even negate an A-rank Ninjutsu! My strongest defensive Steel Release!" The opponent seemed extremely confident in the defense he had constructed.

To his surprise, the golden energy bullet mysteriously pierced through the steel wall and his body. The indestructible steel wall remained undamaged, and he couldn't see any injury on his own body. He only felt a sharp pain inside, causing him to clutch his chest and mutter, "That golden thing isn't Chakra bullet? It can ignore physical defenses..."

"Crack~" The Bloodthirsty Bead was covered in cracks, and the scarlet light it emitted dimmed to the point that it was about to disappear at any moment.

Shunren felt his power constantly draining away, knowing that the projection of the Bloodthirsty Bead was nearing its limit. He gritted his teeth, "The consumption is a bit high, but I can't delay any longer!"

"Yin Release: Projection!"

In Shunren's hands, Ashe's True Ice Bow reappeared!

A large amount of cold air condensed, forming a giant arrow of ice.

"Enchanted Crystal Arrow!"

The icy arrow flew out, leaving a trail of frost in the air!

The Stone Ninja felt a strong chill rushing towards him and was about to dodge when he was attacked by "Essence Flux" and suffered a minor injury. However, his Chakra was surging within him and he was unable to concentrate his Chakra to cast a technique for the time being, so he had to use the power of Steel Release to envelop his entire body.

"Bang!"

The icy arrow struck the Stone Ninja, whose entire body was protected by Steel Release. The ninja coughed up a mouthful of blood, "Cough cough~ It's alright, it's just an injury of this magnitude..."

The frost arrows traveled with astonishing speed, but after being hit head-on, the opponent discovered that their actual destructive power was not as terrifying as they had imagined.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the Iwa Stone Ninja froze. Frost rapidly spread from beneath his feet, and before he could even utter a word, he was completely frozen in ice.

3.5 seconds is enough.

Shunren once again projected his most powerful weapon, the Zangetsu!

"Getsuga Tensho!"

The terrifying slash fell again, hitting the frozen Stone Ninja perfectly, his body shattering along with the ice shards.

Stone Ninja Jonin killed him!

After all this was done--

"Bang! Bang!"

Two shattering sounds were heard as Shunren's Zangetsu and Bloodthirsty Bead shattered simultaneously.

The duration of the Yin Release technique has reached its limit.

Without the Bloodthirsty Bead's blessing, Shunren's body felt completely drained; his Chakra was depleted, and half of his vital energy was gone!

This is also the drawback of the Bloodthirsty Bead. It can nourish its master by absorbing the essence and blood of others, but once it disappears, not only will the power be lost, but it will also take away a large amount of the master's blood, which is a very heavy price to pay.

Having lost all means of control, Shunren collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted.

However, standing before them was another Stone Ninja Jonin still in relatively good condition!

Before his eyes closed, the weakened Shunren saw the enemy walking towards him with a steel knife.

Is this the end...?
