Slaying Binghai, Trapping the Stone Man

The sharp cry of "Doh!" had naturally come from Jiang Yue, who had unleashed the Great Lion's Roar Art with all his might.

The skill was both a sound-wave attack and a mental attack. Catching someone off guard, it could easily throw them into confusion. For those with weak Mental Strength, it was no exaggeration to say they might lose control of their minds and collapse on the spot.

But the Great Lion's Roar Art was merely a feint.

His real trump card was the Spirit Sealing Talisman he had conjured out of thin air. A third-tier spirit talisman, it could immobilize someone in an instant, leaving them unable to move.

The talisman's greatest strength was its element of surprise.

Jiang Yue had disguised himself as the Replicator and held back, repeatedly acting weak, for the same reason: to catch his opponent off guard.

Even the two consecutive slashes he had landed behind Lord Binghai just now had relied on surprise.

After severing Lord Binghai's arm with one slash, he had used the Bronze Bell to cover it, preventing Lord Binghai from reclaiming his magic wand. Every move had depended on catching him off guard.

And once he had created that opening, Jiang Yue naturally wasn't about to waste it.

He lunged forward and swung his battle blade down with tremendous force.

His aim was steady, precise, and ruthless. The blade severed Lord Binghai's head in one stroke, while a Flame Talisman shot toward his cloak.

Jiang Yue didn't trust ordinary methods against these super Awakened Ones. If he was going to kill them, he had to make sure they couldn't come back.

Even after beheading Lord Binghai, Jiang Yue didn't forget to finish him off. The Flame Talisman's fire quickly engulfed the corpse and set it ablaze.
