Human World

Killing Intent aura suddenly appeared, and Zhou Tong felt his scalp tingle for a moment.

A faint, ethereal figure suddenly appeared beside Zhou Tong, an iron sword flashing across the sky, aimed straight at Zhou Tong's brow—it was too fast, too sudden.

A sword Tongtian, dazzling and blinding, like a comet streaking across the sky, striking with deadly force.

A sword strike of unparalleled sharpness!

"Buzz!"

Quite abruptly, a Divine Ring unfolded, and at the same time, a black moon appeared, along with the Taiyin Divine Talisman and Zhou Tong's Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings. The Void the Great trembled, and the Killing Sword was momentarily frozen in place.

A dragon shadow flashed beneath Zhou Tong's feet, as if True Dragon were taking flight, and he retreated sharply, avoiding the sword strike.

"An assassin? A high-level assassin at that?" Zhou Tong was shocked. Why would an assassin target him at this time? And how did they know where he was?

Could it be that the Heavenly Tribulation that lasted for two days a few days ago caught their attention?

Zhou Tong desperately wanted to know all this, but there was no time to think about it now—

"Clang!"

A sword flashed coldly across the earth, and that Dao Body flew in again. The night was cool as water, and the black clothes were as black as ink, blending into this world like a ghost.

The speed was incredibly fast, no slower than Zhou Tong's True Dragon Escape. In an instant, it was upon him again, the sword still pointing directly at Zhou Tong's brow.

"This kind of footwork..." Zhou Tong's pupils shrank. This kind of footwork is definitely related to space. It is a sacred technique created by Great Sage who has comprehended the Space Great Dao. It is not an ordinary technique.

His opponent was a powerful being, at least six realms higher than him, and a master of the art of Way of Slaughter.

Under such a sudden attack, Zhou Tong felt that he had almost no way to avoid it. Everything was so sudden and swift, as if it appeared out of thin air!

The peerless sword blade, pitch black and deep blue, emitted no sword light whatsoever. Its Killing Intent was contained, and its sword light contracted, gathering all its power. It was aimed directly at Zhou Tong's head, leaving him no way to avoid it. This was a fatal blow!

This sword strike, though its power is contained, is sharp and ruthless, aiming to kill with a single blow. If it hits, the victim will be annihilated, body and soul, with no chance of survival.

"Roar!!"

Zhou Tong opened his mouth and roared, a clear purple light wave shooting out from his mouth.

This is the Qilin Roar. The roar of the Kirin can shake mountains and rivers. Zhou Tong gathered all the terrifying power and struck the Killing Sword directly.

"Buzz!!"

The Killing Sword roared continuously after being struck by Zhou Tong's attack, but in the next instant, the sword suddenly trembled, dissipating the power of Zhou Tong's Qilin Roar, and the sword light still pointed straight at Zhou Tong's brow.

But in that instant, Zhou Tong had enough time to counterattack, and he lightly placed his palm on the Killing Sword.

"Heaven and Earth Seal!"

It was a light, seemingly insignificant palm strike, but the assassin instinctively abandoned his sword and retreated.

Because he realized that the divine power and laws he had poured into the Killing Sword were being overturned in an instant, as if some kind of barrier had appeared in the combination of all the Dao Pattern. If he did not abandon the sword, the Killing Sword would immediately self-destruct.

The Heaven and Earth Seal, with Qian above and Kun below, corresponds to "Pi" in the sixty-four hexagrams, symbolizing disharmony between Qian and Kun, and the lack of interaction between Yin and Yang.

This palm strike has little lethality; its power is entirely concentrated in hindering the opponent's attack.

The key to this seal is to throw the opponent into disarray before they can even launch an attack!

"Kun Earth Seal!"

Zhou Tong turned the seal in his hand, transforming it into the Kun Earth Seal.

This seal, with Kun representing the earth, and Kun above and Kun below, carries all things and extends endlessly.

With a single hand seal, the Killing Sword was transformed into a trophy.

Looking at the black-clad assassin again, he turned and left, disappearing in an instant like a wisp of smoke. His attack failed, and he retreated decisively without lingering.

"You think you can just leave? Not so easy!"

Zhou Tong exuded Killing Intent intent, his black hair danced wildly, and his purple aura soared into the sky, making him appear like a Demon God descending to earth.

His eyes were like cold lightning, and when he opened his Martial Heavenly Eye, it was like a star field Illusionary Destruction.

"Buzz!"

The Void the Great trembled like a scroll painting, and nine ancient characters shot out from Zhou Tong's eyes, imprinting themselves in the air. The light of his Martial Heavenly Eye was terrifying, emitting a dreadful aura.

As if trying to obliterate this world, those eyes flickered uncertainly, like a star field being born and Disintegration. The nine ancient characters rotated, exuding an aura of creation.

The assassin in black could no longer merge with the Void the Great; he was shaken out of the Void the Great like a tattered rag.

"Boom!"

At the same time, Zhou Tong, like a god or demon, took a step forward, and amidst the shaking of the heavens and earth, he slammed down with a palm.

Palm Suppressing the Heavens!

This was an astonishing aura, giving the assassin a strange illusion, as if a terrifying god or demon had appeared in front of him, with demonic energy soaring into the sky and Swallow Heaven earth!

"Thousand Mountain Seal!"

Zhou Tong's self-created secret technique Thousand Mountain Seal, finally appeared in the world for the first time.

Although this seal technique is not yet perfect, only the Eight Mountains have been perfected, and it is still far from the Three Thousand Mountains, the suppression of these eight mountains already exudes an invincible aura.

One palm strike can shatter all techniques; with a single blow, nothing can withstand it. Eight symbols flickered continuously between Zhou Tong's fingers, resembling eight divine mountains since the World Creation, incomparably powerful.

Ahead, the Void the Great froze; the entire Void the Great was completely frozen by this attack.

The assassin in black, radiating light, unleashed several secret techniques with his supreme magical power. He wanted to avoid the seal, counter it with his own techniques, and use the treasures he possessed to save his life.

However, whether it was a magical artifact or a secret technique formed from the Source God, it was as easy to destroy as a piece of paper under Zhou Tong's Thousand Mountain Seal.

The runes of those eight mountains seemed to be able to freeze the Void the Great and Annihilation all things, making them unavoidable and unstoppable.

"Puff!"

A streak of bloody light shot up as Zhou Tong's Thousand Mountain Seal pressed down, turning the powerful assassin into a bloody pulp!

"Seal up!"

With a wave of his hand, Zhou Tong unleashed a mass of runes that sealed away the powerful being's primordial spirit.

The Thousand Mountain Seal only destroyed his physical body; his most important primordial spirit remained. Zhou Tong intentionally avoided his primordial spirit during his attack, as he needed to extract some information from this powerful being's primordial spirit.

He wanted to know whether this killer was from the Human World or Hell.

He wanted to know. How exactly did this assassin target him?

"The Vajra Ring is yours!"

Zhou Tong casually tossed the powerful being's primordial spirit into the Vajra Ring.

"This sword is not bad..." Zhou Tong took out the assassin's Killing Sword again.

This is the Killing Sword that this assassin nurtured throughout his life; it is also a weapon of immense power, exuding Killing Intent aura.

However, for Zhou Tong, this weapon was merely a collectible.

Soon, as the Vajra Ring spun, the powerful being's primordial spirit was instantly refined into Nothingness, and at the same time, his memories were transmitted into Zhou Tong's mind.

"Those holy land families have indeed found the Assassin Divine Dynasty and made contact with them, but we don't know if it's the Ji Family, the Jiang Family, or the Yaoguang..."

"The Second Layer of Immortal Platform, the second heaven, a powerful assassin in the Human World, found me because of that heavenly Heavenly Tribulation! The reason they didn't strike immediately after my tribulation was that they were waiting for the best opportunity..."

"I never expected that someone of my lower cultivation level would be so cautious; I also never expected that they would have a base nearby, less than a thousand miles from here! This guy is the person in charge of this base..."

Zhou Tong was very surprised. He didn't expect that there would be a Human World assassin branch near the cave he randomly chose, and that it would take so long to discover it.

"However, you're all unlucky. Since the person in charge has fallen into my hands, you're all doomed too!" Zhou Tong turned around and walked directly towards the base in the Human World.
