The Power of the Third Level

"Grumble----!"

The crescent-shaped dagger rubbed against the sharp blade, producing an extremely piercing sound and causing sparks to fly continuously, flashing in the ruins filled with dark red flames.

Gripping the Moon Blade tightly, Fang Li while enduring the relentless force from his opponent, all the while keeping an eye on the Assassin launching the attack.

It was a man whose face was wrapped in a scarf-like cloth, whose head was also tied with a cloth strip, who wore a cloak, and who was tall but thin, exuding an aura of death.

The man's face was completely obscured; even the parts not covered by the scarf were only blurry black silhouettes. His eyes, however, were a dark red like a vengeful ghost, staring intently at Fang Li, making the surrounding air feel chilly.

————"Bad Blade".

This is the other party's true name as Crimson Realm Denizens.

His other name is Sabrac, a true assassin who doesn't belong to any organization and only accepts commissions from others to carry out assassinations.

Moreover, he was an incredibly powerful assassin, the Crimson King had claimed the lives of countless Flame Haze Warrior.

Perhaps, if we only consider the number of Flame Haze Warrior killed, even Fariagani, known as the Flame Haze Warrior Killer, cannot compare to Sabrac.

Because the two are completely different in nature.

It doesn't refer to anything else, it just refers to strength.

The Crimson King before us is renowned for his power. He has never failed to target any of his targets. While his abilities as an assassin are first-rate, as a Crimson King, his strength is even more exceptional.

You can tell from the surrounding ruins that have turned into a sea of fire.

Sabrac's strength is terrifying.

(Definitely the Third Level...)

Although it lacked the overwhelming pressure of when Shudenan unleashed his power before, the sharp killing intent emanating from Sabrac, enough to pierce the nerves, told Fang Li that even if he wasn't as powerful as the Three Pillars, the assassin before him was still one of the top kings in the Crimson World.

(I never expected this guy to be here...)

Faced with such a terrible attack, Fang Li's memories of Sabrac have been completely awakened.

Therefore, Fang Li knew that Sabrac's employer was "Bal Masqué".

In other words, Sabrac was commissioned by the "Bal Masqué" to take Fang Li's life.

"Bang—!"

With an explosive sound, dark red flames erupted all over Sabrac's body.

"Clap clap clap clap—!"

The already fragile ground cracked apart inch by inch under this sudden eruption, and then collapsed violently.

Countless pebbles rained down into the bottomless abyss.

Fang Li was also caught in the rubble and fell downwards.

Before Fang Li could even use the Hermes Long Boots ' flight effect to hover in mid-air, the assassin named Sabrac made his move above him.

"Boom—!"

Amidst a thunderous roar, an exceptionally violent and ferocious dark red flame, like a vortex, engulfed Sabrac's body.

Sabrac was engulfed in dark red flames, the flames beneath him surging like a raging torrent, making Sabrac appear as a surfer riding the waves above the fiery inferno, carrying immense momentum as he hurtled Fang Li like a whirlwind.

The next second, from the raging flames beneath Sabrac, countless swords erupted once more, carrying surging dark red flames, like streaks of meteors, engulfing Fang Li like a storm.

That is Sabrac's proud and Inherent Skill— "Wrath of Flames".

Amidst the surging flames, countless swords and blades are mixed in, drawing enemies into a deadly vortex of fire and swords. No matter which side you react to, even if you block one attack, you will be subjected to a frenzied onslaught from the other. This is a terrifyingly Inherent Skill.

Just like now, if Fang Li were to react to the countless swords attacking him, even if he managed to block them, he would be swept into the vortex of flames behind him and burned to ashes on the spot.

If Fang Li were to react to the flames, he would be instantly stabbed to death by the countless swords and blades mixed in with them.

Therefore, even if Fang Li wore the Azure Fire-Repelling Ring, it wouldn't help in this situation.

At that moment, Fang Li gave up flying and let his body fall with gravity, while his free hand clenched tightly.

A pure white Activation Body suddenly appeared and fell into Fang Li's hand.

"Zheng—!"

A dazzling pure white light shone from the Omni-element Crystal.

As the Omni-element surged forth from the Omni-element Crystal, Bō Xié's energy sword instantly took shape, carrying a pure white light, and was held high by Fang Li.

The rich Star Pulse Energy surged into it, causing Bō Xié's Omni-element Crystal to shine with dazzling light once again.

"Buzz—!"

Suddenly, the surrounding atmosphere began to flow violently, turning into whirlwinds that converged towards Bō Xié's direction.

"Compression!"

At Fang Li's command, the gathered airflow was suddenly compressed onto Bō Xié's energy sword.

At the same time, countless swords and blades, mixed with dark red flames and like a raging torrent of fire, shot out and directly engulfed Fang Li.

"Liberation!"

Fang Li's voice rang out amidst the countless flaming swords that enveloped them.

"Thump—!"

A deafening roar, like a heavy cannon blast, echoed outwards.

Suddenly, a violent hurricane surged out from the raging torrent of countless fiery swords, like a needle against a wheat awn, transforming into another invisible hurricane that crashed fiercely against the oncoming fiery torrent.

"Boom—!"

Amidst the earth-shattering roar, the raging wind and waves collided heavily with the raging flames, causing the violent wind and fire waves to reverberate in all directions.

Wherever it passed, whether it was rubble or debris, it was either shattered by the airflow or engulfed by flames, causing the entire collapsed cavity to tremble suddenly.

One side possesses the capabilities of a Third Level Pure Star Imperial Armament.

One side is the Inherent Skill of the Crimson King, Third Level.

When forces of equal strength collide, most of their astonishing power is neutralized, but what remains is still enough to destroy everything, which is extremely terrifying.

Fang Li was bounced around like a ball by the terrible Explosive Wind, and only managed to regain his balance and land on the ground below.

"————!"

The moment he landed on the ground, a sharp pain shot through Fang Li's body, causing Fang Li to kneel down on one knee.

"This is..."

Fang Li's eyes flickered slightly.

The wounds on his body began to widen, causing a large amount of blood to seep out.
