Chapter 216: Shadow Martial Soul

Slash!

Kacha!

There was no shocking momentum.

Lin Ze had simply condensed all his anger and true essence onto the blade.

Once this blade slashed down, the invisible assassin had no time to dodge before his right arm and leg were cut off.

Lin Ze’s blade technique seemed ordinary, but it was a true Transcendent Blade Technique. In addition, his cultivation base was much stronger than the invisible assassin’s.

If this blade had accurately hit, the invisible assassin would have died without a doubt.

However, Lin Ze still had the disadvantage of not seeing his opponent, so he could only attack under the guidance of the heavenly dragon true essence. Therefore, his attack had been slightly off.

But even so, the invisible assassin was on his last legs and hastily fled.

“Want to run away after killing people? What a big dream!”

If the Initial Rank Nine Martial Vein Martial Master had been at his peak, Ling Xiao would absolutely not have been his opponent.

However, the invisible assassin was barely alive. Not to mention a talented warrior like him, even an ordinary Rank Seven Martial Master could kill him.

After all, Lin Ze’s attack was no joke. His attack had not only injured the other party on the surface, but his true essence was also wreaking havoc within the other’s body.

Lin Ze’s true essence was like steel needles that weakened the miserable assassin. 

At this moment, the invisible assassin was so weak that most Martial Masters could kill him.

The problem was that he was invisible, so no one else could target him.

Go on your way!

Blood Blade Shadow King Kill!

Ling Xiao’s Cloud Dragon Divine Walk was so fast that he instantly caught up with the fleeing invisible assassin. 

The sword accurately stabbed the weakest point of the invisible assassin from a very strange angle.

Puff!

Once again, the invisible assassin was stabbed by Ling Xiao, but the result was vastly different.

Before, the invisible assassin had not been seriously injured by Lin Ze.

Now, the invisible assassin’s strength might be inferior to a Rank Seven Martial Vein Martial Master’s.

Lin Xiao’s sword pierced through his body, and his snow lotus true essence crazily flowed into his Floating Snow Sword, integrating into the invisible assassin’s body.

The wound became even more terrifying.

Kakaka!

The invisible assassin’s body gradually froze before appearing in front of everyone.

Ling Xiao lightly kicked it, shattering that frozen body.

Although there was neither big momentum nor terrifying destruction, this scene deeply shocked all the martial artists.

“The invisible assassin was killed!”

“The biggest trouble has been resolved!”

“What is the name of that youngster?”

“Don’t you know? He is Commander Lin’s true disciple, Ling Xiao!”

“No wonder! It turned out to be him! No wonder he could kill that invisible assassin!”

There was a commotion on the battlefield!

The morale of the Protective Wall Mountain’s defending troops rose again, and the war situation quickly tilted towards Hollow Cloud City.

Even in the battles between those Rank Nine experts, Hollow Cloud City’s side began to hold an advantage.

“Good boy, great job!”

Lin Ze stood there, carrying a huge blade on his shoulder. Because of that blade move, the wound on his shoulder had reopened and was now bleeding.

Nevertheless, he didn’t care, remaining excited and pleased at heart.

Today had showcased the strength of his disciple, his true disciple!

“Commander Lin, who gets the military merits?”

Ling Xiao asked with a smile.

“Of course, you!”

Lin Ze said with a smile: “If you weren’t here, the number of people to die in the hands of that invisible assassin would have increased. Even Rank Nine powerhouses might have fallen. Everything changed because of you. This commander just assisted you. It would be too shameful to take any military merit.”

Everyone with clear eyes could see that the plan to kill that invisible assassin had been initiated, planned, and resolved by Ling Xiao.

If there were no Lin Ze, other experts could have completed his part. 

But if there were no Ling Xiao, no one would replace him.

After the invisible assassin was killed, the Ren Race’s side suddenly turned chaotic, completely losing their fighting spirit. They completely lost their fighting spirit.

Without the Ren Race’s help, the Blue-Eyed Race couldn’t make any great moves, gradually falling into a disadvantage. 

It could be said that if there were no more accidents, the war would end soon.

In this battle, Ling Xiao had consumed a lot. Therefore, he retreated to the back to restore his true essence.

“Father——!”

In the battle formation of the Blue-Eyed Race was a person wrapped in a black robe.

He was Ming Tian.

Upon seeing his father’s tragic death, he wanted to rush over to avenge his father, but he was stopped by the Ren Race’s experts.

“Going there is just courting death! Don’t forget that the twelve hidden sects of the Human Race have reappeared! We must be careful; otherwise, those who annoyed the twelve sects will not even know how they died!”

“Are the twelve hidden sects truly that terrifying?”

Ming Tian was not convinced.

“Humph, what if I told you that your master White Cloud Great Master is just an outer disciple of Moonlight Sect, one of the twelve sects?”

“What!”

Ming Tian’s eyes widened. He was unable to accept such a statement.

“Don’t be so surprised. According to rumor, only when the Landscape Martial Soul appears, will  the twelve hidden sects reappear in this world. In those twelve sects, even the outer disciples are all transcendent martial artists.”

That expert from the Ren Race continued: “Those twelve hidden sects are the twelve sects that created the Human Race’s Sacred Dynasty. After you advance to the transcendent realm, you can try to enter one of them. if you cannot enter them, it is basically impossible to annex the Human Race’s Scared Dynasty.”

Ming Tian gritted his teeth and said: “I understand. I’ll remember my father’s hatred.”

After speaking, he turned and left the battlefield.

Then, all Ren Race’s martial artists soon retreated from the battlefield.

“Damned Ren Race! They betrayed us!”

Discovering this phenomenon, a Blue-Eyed race Peak Rank Nine powerhouse was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Before launching this war, they had discussed with the Ren Race and determined that they would fight in the light while the Ren Race would fight from the dark. The result was that they were sold now.

“General, we can’t endure any longer. The Human Race has already begun to counterattack.”

“General, what should we do? Should we retreat?”

“The Giant Elephant Puppet is being suppressed. We have no other means.”

The Blue-Eyed Race fell into a panic.

Hollow Cloud City finally switched from defense to offense, beginning a strategic counterattack.

Ling Xiao, however, quietly sat cross-legged at the rear.

Now, the Human Race had the advantage on the battlefield. He didn’t need to worry.

Just a moment ago, he had obtained a complete Ren Spirit from that invisible assassin, Shadow Ren Spirit, a very powerful ren spirit.

Although it had no strengthening effect on his attack or defense, it allowed a martial artist to enter an invisible state. Not only would the body be invisible, but even one’s aura would be completely restrained.

Unless the cultivation base of the opponent was a big realm higher than the martial artist possessing the Shadow Ren Spirit or possessed special abilities, no one could notice him.

If someone were relatively stronger, he might be able to sense something within ten meters.

The so-called big realm referred to the advancement from Rank Nine Martial Vein to the Transcendent Realm.

Therefore, one could say that under the Transcendent Realm, this Shadow Ren Spirit was practically invincible.

If the Ren Race’s assassin hadn’t encountered Ling Xiao, he alone would have completely changed the war.

“This Shadow Ren Spirit is a complete Ren Spirit. After I convert it, it will become the Shadow Martial Soul. Its effect is similar to Blood Blade Martial Soul’s, but it is stronger. I wonder whether these two martial souls can be combined?”
