Chapter 4079: Counterattack

No, no!

The assassin hurriedly shook his head. He had almost been tricked by Ling Han. This guy was on the must-kill list of the Battle God Palace, so how could he possibly be one of their own?

“Don’t even think of lying to me!” he shouted loudly.

Ling Han sighed. Previously, when he had been speaking, he had even used his powerful spiritual power to influence the other. He had almost succeeded. However, it was a pity that there was not much of a gap in their cultivation levels, after all. It was too difficult to use this kind of method to control the other’s mind.

‘Fine then, I’ll use force to extort a confession.’

Ling Han cracked a smile, “If you don’t confess honestly, you will suffer greatly.”

“Haha, among the disciples of the Battle God Palace, which one of them would be afraid of torture?” The assassin laughed loudly, appearing to be completely unafraid.

“Indeed.” Ling Han nodded, “Because it involves crucial information, it has been sealed by divine sense. If it is forcefully extracted, it would shatter the mind.”

“It’s good that you know.” The assassin humphed.

Ling Han asked, “Do you want to know a secret?”

The assassin ignored him.

“Aren’t you curious about how I learned the Strange Shadow Steps?” Ling Han asked with a smile.

The assassin’s eyelids involuntarily twitched. This was indeed something that he was extremely curious about. If that had not been the case, perhaps he would have been able to successfully assassinate Ling Han instead of being dragged out of the shadows by Ling Han. “Tell me how many more people have entered this place this time, and I’ll exchange this secret with you. How about it?” Ling Han suggested.

“Haha, how could I be the type to betray my companions!” The assassin resolutely refused. He naturally refused, because even if his curiosity was satisfied, he would still fall into Ling Han’s hands, and would not be able to escape.

This deal was really not worth it.

Ling Han laughed loudly, “That is not up to you to decide!”

Weng! The murderous aura activated.

However, Ling Han controlled his power very well. Otherwise, with such an impact, this assassin’s mind would be directly shattered.

“Ah!” The assassin immediately grabbed his head and screamed. How awesome was Ling Han’s divine sense now? He couldn’t resist at all, and could only passively endure it.

It was only an instant, and his whole body was covered in cold sweat, as if he was a drowned rat.

Meanwhile, Ling Han sat at the sidelines. He wasn’t in a hurry, and he was waiting very leisurely.

It was only a few minutes, and the assassin couldn’t bear it anymore. He moaned, and said, “I’ll talk, I’ll talk. Whatever you want to know, I’ll tell you!”

Ling Han withdrew the barrage of murderous aura, then said, “Aside from you, are there any other assassins from the Battle God Palace here?”

“Yes!” the assassin gasped. Sweat rolled down his forehead, and he still hadn’t recovered. “How many are there? What cultivation level are they at?” Ling Han asked again.

“There are four in total. One is a Foundation Building Tier cultivator, two are Core Formation Tier cultivators, and one is a True Self Tier cultivator,” the assassin said.

Ling Han shuddered. There were actually True Self Tier assassins?

If this was outside, he would naturally be unafraid. If he used Earth Qi, he might even be able to kill an assassin of True Self Tier, but it was different here. The ley lines were suppressed, and he couldn’t use them.

“Could it be that I have to use the Heavenly Dao Flames?” Ling Han frowned. By now, there were not many times left for him to use it. Using it on a True Self Tier would be too much of a waste.

Moreover, wasn’t this place only open to those at the Core Formation Tier?

That’s right. The others were all very self-aware, because the Saint had spoken, but these people from the Battle God Palace were shameless, and that was why an assassin from the True Self Tier had snuck in.

Of course, firstly, they had no backing, and secondly, the members of the Battle God Palace were like rats that traversed the streets in the first place. Who would dare to appear in such a grand manner?

“What else do you want to know?” the assassin asked.

Ling Han shook his head, and said, “Aside from the location of the Battle God Palace, I don’t need to know anything else. Unfortunately, you can’t tell me where the Battle God Palace is.” With a thought, pa, the assassin’s mind was instantly shattered, and he was completely dead. Ling Han naturally wouldn’t be reserved toward those who wanted to kill him. He casually stowed the corpse away before continuing his comprehension.

Nothing was more important than one’s own strength.

However, there were still assassins from the Battle God Palace here. That Foundation Building Tier cultivator obviously couldn’t assassinate him. However, there were still two Core Formation Tier cultivators, so they would definitely be eager to give it a try. As for True Self Tier assassin… it was a little troublesome.

Another day passed, and Ling Han was still stabilizing his cultivation level. However, he suddenly sensed killing intent again.

‘Here it comes.’

This one wasn’t strong, and was merely a Core Formation Tier cultivator.

Ling Han remained calm and composed, allowing the other party to approach.

Yi?

A hint of surprise appeared on Ling Han’s face. With his eye technique, he could see clearly that he had seen that person before.

One of the seeds.

Previously, when he had entered into the Blood Tower to receive the inheritance, he had been provoked by a few seeds when he came out, and he had even killed one of them. The person who had come now was a seed from that era.

Enemies were really bound to meet on a narrow road.

After a while, the other party was already close.

Shua, that person brandished his butcher’s knife. A cold light streaked past, slicing towards Ling Han, wanting to forcibly sever him into two.

Ling Han smiled, activated the Strange Shadow Steps, and took a step forward. Not only did

he dodge this saber strike, but he also fled into the darkness and directly disappeared.

That seed was instantly stupefied.

What was going on?

“I’ve seen that expression you have once the day before yesterday,” Ling Han said from

behind him.

Shua, that seed was very strong, and he immediately slashed his saber behind him.

Unfortunately, he had only missed like that person last time.

However, seeds were seeds, after all, so how could ordinary assassins compare?

He immediately used the Nine Styles of the God of War. Boom, battle prowess surged, and

blasted towards Ling Han.

This was a Saint Technique, which was extraordinarily powerful.

Unfortunately, merely in terms of Imperial Techniques, Ling Han had mastered more than

one, so how could he be able to show off his celestial technique in front of him?

The God Slaying Technique.

Ling Han raised both hands, and also greeted the incoming attack with a fierce strike.

Peng!

Just how powerful was he now? His raw power was as high as 20 Heavens, and with just a single strike, that seed was sent flying. Blood seeped out from all over his body, and at least a few blood vessels had been broken.

“How could you possibly know the Strange Shadow Steps?” That seed exclaimed in shock. This was something that he couldn’t understand no matter what.

“I also know the Nine Styles of the God of War. Do you want to try it?” Ling Han said with a

smile.

That seed was even more stunned. The world only knew the Three Styles of theGod of War, and to be able to say the Nine Styles of the God of War… he must be a higher-up of the Battle God Palace, or a seed that had crawled through the Blood Tower. However, how could a target of assassination be a higher-up or seed of the Battle God Palace?

“Hehe, only a year and a half has passed, and you don’t remember me anymore?” Ling Han patted his shoulder. With a thought, he transformed into Ding Yi’s appearance.

“You, you, you—” That guy was completely stupefied, his eyes wide.

Who would have thought that the target that the Battle God Palace had sworn to kill would actually sneak into the Battle God Palace, and even become a seed!

No wonder Ding Yi had defected. As it turned out, he was Ling Han, so how could he not have

fled?
