At the Earth Dragon Mountain Summit, every cultivator was utterly shaken at the sight of the first layer of the Killing Formation.
Some cultivators versed in formations and familiar with the Seven Kills Hall even turned pale and cried out,
"Heavens! This is one of the Seven Kills Hall's nine great Killing Formations! Its variations are endless, and killing intent sweeps through it. Even a Purple Mansion Realm cultivator would struggle to escape unscathed!"
"I heard the Seven Kills Hall's Elite Assassins once used this formation to kill a late-stage Purple Mansion Realm cultivator!"
At his words, the surrounding cultivators gasped.
"Even a late-stage Purple Mansion Realm cultivator died inside it. Qin Wuyou is only in the Foundation Establishment Realm. Wouldn't he have nine chances of death and only one of survival?"
"Not nine chances of death—ten, with no chance of survival! If Qin Wuyou has any sense, he won't enter the Killing Formation. Otherwise, not even the King of Heaven himself could save him!"
While these cultivators were discussing it, Qin Wuyou had already stepped into the Killing Formation.
Inside the formation, he coldly watched the shadows flickering constantly around him.
Crack! Crack!
In an instant, hundreds of attacks slashed down onto his body.
Yet Qin Wuyou stood utterly motionless within the Killing Formation, allowing the attacks to strike his skin without even bothering to dodge.
He even deliberately moved into the attacks.
Within just a few breaths, at least several thousand attacks had struck him.
An ordinary Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator would have been cut into ten thousand pieces long ago.
Yet Qin Wuyou remained completely unscathed.
The Foundation Establishment Realm assassins' attacks could not even leave a mark on him, much less kill him.
Remaining unscathed beneath the Killing Formation's storm of attacks without relying on any magical treasure for protection, Qin Wuyou could well be called the first of his kind throughout all history.
The smiles on the Elite Assassins controlling the formation had long since vanished, replaced entirely by shock and terror!
Even the stupidest among them could now see that Qin Wuyou was extraordinary.
"Hiss! Something's wrong with this guy!"
"Our attacks have no effect on him!"
"He's cultivated his flesh to a level comparable to a spirit artifact!"
"Is he even fucking human?"
"What do we do? Continuing to hack at him is just a waste of time."
The Elite Assassins rapidly exchanged opinions while changing the formation.
They were no fools. They knew their strength was no longer enough to hurt Qin Wuyou.
Expecting them to kill him was even more out of the question.
Thus, almost instantly, the Elite Assassins reached an agreement!
"Retreat!"
"If we keep holding out, we'll probably be the ones who die!"
Before the Elite Assassins could retreat, however, Qin Wuyou suddenly gave a cold smile amid the storm of attacks.
"Is this all your Killing Formation can do?"
"It's not even enough to scratch an itch!"
The reason he had not struck back and had allowed the Killing Formation to attack him was to test the power of the God and Devil Tyrant Body.
From the looks of it, the God and Devil Tyrant Body's defensive power was much as he had expected.
Neither Foundation Establishment Realm attacks nor Supreme-Grade Spirit Artifacts could leave the slightest trace on his body.
Only after verifying the God and Devil Tyrant Body's defenses did Qin Wuyou prepare to act.
The elite disciples who had been preparing to withdraw were filled with towering rage upon hearing Qin Wuyou's taunts.
"Arrogant!"
"This bastard is far too arrogant!"
"Even if I have to die today, I'll show him the strength of our Seven Kills Hall!"
"Give it every fucking thing you've got! If we can't kill this brat, we'll all go to hell together!"
The twelve Elite Assassins of the Seven Kills Hall unleashed their full strength simultaneously.
The Killing Formation immediately spun wildly, unleashing terrifying power capable of slaying a Purple Mansion Realm cultivator as it slashed toward Qin Wuyou.
Qin Wuyou had been about to kill the Elite Assassins, but his eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the Killing Formation unleash destructive power comparable to the Purple Mansion Realm.
"Not bad. Now that's more like it!"
He abruptly stayed his hand, allowing the terrifying killing move, comparable to a Purple Mansion Realm cultivator's full-strength blow, to strike his body!
"This guy... is he insane?"
All twelve Seven Kills Hall assassins were stunned with fright.
To withstand the Killing Formation's strongest attack with his flesh alone, this guy was either mad or courting death!
Yet the moment their strongest attack struck Qin Wuyou, the impact was strangely quiet.
Qin Wuyou remained utterly motionless within the Killing Formation.
Their powerful attack, strong enough to slay a Purple Mansion Realm cultivator, left only a white mark on his arm.
Without looking closely, they would not even have noticed the mark!
Moreover, the mark lasted less than a second before swiftly fading away!
"Holy shit! Does this guy really have an Indestructible Diamond Body?"
The twelve Seven Kills Hall assassins were already scared witless.
They had thought this strongest move would certainly wound Qin Wuyou.
Yet it had done fuck all.
An attack of this level could not even break through Qin Wuyou's flesh!
"Retreat!"
Upon seeing that even their strongest attack had accomplished nothing, the twelve Seven Kills Hall assassins immediately withdrew without hesitation.
But before they could escape the Killing Formation, Qin Wuyou's voice boomed out.
"Want to leave?"
"All of you are staying right here!"
Qin Wuyou, who had yet to strike, finally moved.
"Saint Dragon Heaven-Battling Fist!"
With his shout, terrifying magical power condensed into a thousand-foot true dragon that charged forth.
Rumble!
Countless enormous fist imprints instantly appeared throughout the Killing Formation, their radiance and the true dragon's furious roar engulfing everything.
When the light faded, everyone was stunned at the sight of the ground, where blood flowed in rivers!
The twelve Seven Kills Hall assassins had been shattered beyond recognition.
Just as Qin Wuyou had said earlier, he had given them death by being torn into ten thousand pieces!
He had done exactly as promised!
Standing amid those rivers of blood, Qin Wuyou, who had looked as ethereal as an immortal, now resembled an unrivaled god of slaughter, striking fear into all who beheld him!
Whoosh!
Just as Qin Wuyou finished killing the twelve Elite Assassins, the almost inaudible sound of a longsword cutting through the air suddenly rang out.
The sound was so faint it was nearly imperceptible.
It was not even as loud as the blood flowing within one's body.
Especially in the excitement of having just slain an enemy, any normal person's blood would be boiling.
At such a moment, the faint sound of a longsword cutting through the air would naturally be drowned out.
An ordinary person would certainly not have detected that almost inaudible sound at this moment.
Qin Wuyou, however, was destined to be no ordinary person.
Killing these twelve Foundation Establishment Realm assassins was nothing for him to celebrate. It did not stir even the slightest excitement in him.
Nor did it send hot blood surging through his veins.
Thus, that almost inaudible sound of a longsword cutting through the air rang like thunder in his ears.
"A hidden assassin?"
A cold smile appeared on Qin Wuyou's lips. Was this the Seven Kills Hall's killing move?
A hidden assassin striking suddenly at a moment like this was bound to achieve extraordinary results!
At the very least, there was a ninety percent chance of a successful assassination.
He had to admit that the Seven Kills Hall's assassins did have a trick or two.
But that was all they had.
Such sinister tricks had nowhere to hide before a truly powerful opponent!
Without even needing to turn around, Qin Wuyou reversed the sword in his hand and thrust it backward!
Thud!
A perfectly intact head suddenly tumbled out of the empty space behind him.
Immediately afterward, a headless corpse appeared in a forward lunge, continuing another thirty feet before crashing to the ground!
That was the Seven Kills Hall's hidden assassin, the secret killing move they had arranged!
Yet Qin Wuyou had countered it with ease.
Looking at the headless corpse on the ground and the sea of blood covering it, everyone was so stunned that they stood frozen like wooden chickens!
