Chapter 944

In the Spirit Devouring Rat's sea of consciousness, there was a layer of defensive light. This layer of defense was very easy to break through for those with perfect spiritual senses. Zi Chen used a gentle method to break through the spiritual sense defense and entered the depths of the Spirit Devouring Rat's sea of consciousness.

Here, Zi Chen saw a Spirit Devouring Rat that was glowing all over. This was the spiritual sense of the Spirit Devouring Rat, and also the location of its soul. It seemed to be sleeping, and it did not notice when Zi Chen's spiritual sense invaded it.

Zi Chen's spiritual sense carefully entered the Spirit Devouring Rat's soul to investigate its situation.

Outside, everyone looked at Zi Chen nervously.

After a while, Zi Chen opened his eyes. Shangguan Yue 'er asked, "How is it?"

Zi Chen shook his head and said, "It's fine. It's just sleeping, and there's no danger. I left a wisp of perfect spiritual sense in its spiritual sense. I think it will wake up soon."

Shangguan Yue 'er breathed a sigh of relief. After Zi Chen left, the Spirit Devouring Rat came back and followed her. She did not want anything to happen to the Spirit Devouring Rat.

After killing the people of the Five Elements Force, the other party would soon sense that danger could come at any time. This place was no longer safe, and Zi Chen did not plan to stay any longer. However, they had to part after just meeting, so it was inevitable that they would be reluctant to part.

The void above the square had been broken open, and the passage to the Ancient Road of the Ancient Road of Trials appeared. The passage opened for the two of them was naturally the strongest Ancient Road of Trials. Shangguan Yue 'er stood at the bottom of the ancient road with tears on her face. She looked at Zi Chen with eyes full of reluctance.

"Take care." The two hugged each other for a long time before separating. Zi Chen said softly.

The two of them soared into the sky and then entered their respective passages. Zhang Haotian nodded at Zi Chen and the demon ape, while Shangguan Yue 'er kept waving her hand.

"Boom!"

Just as the passage was about to close, a powerful energy suddenly emerged from this side of the world. This energy broke through space and went straight for Zi Chen. Caught off guard, Zi Chen was sent flying and coughed up blood.

Zi Chen disappeared from their sight. The two of them instantly changed, but before they could fly out of the ancient road and rush to Zi Chen, the passage automatically closed.

The two figures disappeared, and Shangguan Yue 'er's voice reverberated throughout the world.

The Devil Ape quickly rushed towards Zi Chen and supported Zi Chen. The attack just now was very powerful. It had actually injured Zi Chen, who had a Perfect Body. If it were anyone else, even if they were at the Human Primordial Realm, they would probably have been killed by the sneak attack.

Zi Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking up into the sky. Seeing that Shangguan Yue 'er and Zhang Haotian had disappeared, Zi Chen heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. His eyes then turned back to where the energy had come from.

The expressions of the three guardians became extremely solemn. The attack just now clearly used some of the power of the rules, but they actually did not sense it. Even now, they still could not sense where the other party was.

"Be careful, the intruder is not an ordinary person. We can't detect him even if we use the Laws," the old man reminded Zi Chen.

It was obvious that the intruder would not harm them. He would only target Zi Chen.

A red light flashed in the Devil Ape's eyes, and the Delusion-breaker Eye appeared. After Zi Chen got up, his eyes also flashed with the Yin-Yang Light. He looked into the void, but he did not find anything unusual.

Zi Chen asked, "Even the Laws can't detect him. Could it be that the other party is above the Laws?"

The old man shook his head and said, "That's impossible. No one can be above the Laws. For such a possibility to appear, it can only mean that the other party has mastered more Laws. Moreover, his concealment technique is very high."

"Concealment technique." Zi Chen frowned and said, "Could it be an assassin?"

He used his Yin-Yang Eye and Delusion-breaker Eye to scan his surroundings. However, he wasn't sure if it was due to carelessness, but when his gaze shifted, an empty spot appeared. This empty spot happened to be beside Zi Chen.

Just as their gazes swept past, the void split open, and a pitch-black sharp blade stabbed towards Zi Chen.

A cold light flashed in Zi Chen's eyes, and he shouted, "I've been waiting for you."

The moment the sharp blade appeared, the Dragon Soul Spear in Zi Chen's hand also appeared, and he stabbed towards the owner of the sharp blade.

It was a black-clothed assassin. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he instantly reversed his original sure-kill attack and blocked the Dragon Soul Spear.

"Clang." Sparks flew everywhere as the two exchanged blows, and the black-clothed assassin retreated.

Zi Chen's expression changed when his attack was blocked. His body suddenly twisted, and he dodged to the side. As soon as his body disappeared, a sharp blade flashed past the place where Zi Chen had been standing.

Zi Chen's body moved three meters away. Golden blood spilled from his chest, and there was a long wound that extended from his chest to his lower abdomen.

The assassin had used a sure-kill attack. This attack could only be used to advance, but not retreat. However, the other party turned around at the critical moment and blocked Zi Chen's attack. Obviously, this was not a sure-kill attack, so Zi Chen sensed that something was wrong and quickly retreated. However, he did not expect that he was still one step too late.

After the two attacks, the two of them hid in the air again.

"It's an assassin." At this moment, the few of them could already confirm the other party's identity.

The one in the dark was an assassin, but he was an assassin who used the power of rules to conceal himself. Each of his opponent's attacks contained some power of rules. This power of rules was not used to kill Zi Chen, but to conceal himself.

The red light in the demonic ape's eyes intensified, but under the Delusion-breaker Eye, it still couldn't see anything, not even a phantom.

Zi Chen held his spear and stood in the air. His Perfect Body was rapidly recovering from his injuries.

The demonic ape was four meters away from Zi Chen. It held the black rod and stood there, constantly scanning the area with the Delusion-breaker Eye.

Zi Chen also pushed his Yin-Yang Eyes to the limit, but like the demonic ape, he couldn't see anything. Zi Chen simply gave up on using his Yin-Yang Eyes and closed his eyes. He separated his perfect spiritual sense from his sea of consciousness and transformed it into a fine net that spread out within ten meters.

Once there was movement in the surroundings, his perfect spiritual sense would be able to detect it.

In another direction, Sophie and company looked at each other and used their highest authority to use the power of the rules to investigate their surroundings.

"The other party only hides and doesn't attack. It's very difficult to detect them. You have to be careful. There might be more than two of them," the elder, who had gained nothing, said again.

Zi Chen's expression didn't change, but a light flashed on his back. The Heavenly Lightning Wings slowly appeared. He didn't dare make too big of a move because the existence in the dark gave him a lot of pressure.

All this time, Zi Chen had been able to completely defeat the assassin by relying on his omnipotent perception. In front of him, the hidden assassin was no different from an ordinary person. But now, with his perception ineffective, Zi Chen finally felt the pressure. This was the pressure every expert felt when facing an assassin.

Although Zi Chen's movements were very small and light, the assassin still seized the opportunity. The void behind Zi Chen split open as a black sword beam shot towards Zi Chen's back.

Zi Chen didn't turn around. He spun the spear in his hand and stabbed behind him.

Clang!

The spear blocked the assassin's killing blow, but the powerful force also shook the spear away. Zi Chen's back was exposed to the black sword beam, but he still didn't turn around. Although the killing blow didn't contain enough power, it was still enough to kill Zi Chen.

A light flashed in the black-clothed man's eyes. He moved his sharp blade forward and stabbed towards Zi Chen's back. At that moment, a turbulent energy appeared from the side and struck towards the assassin with terrifying power.

It was the Demon Ape. He had launched an attack at that moment.

This attack was fierce and powerful. If the assassin was hit, he would be seriously injured, if not killed. Moreover, this attack was very fast. Before he killed Zi Chen, this attack would definitely land first.

Therefore, the assassin decisively chose to block.

Another tremor sounded. He was sent flying, but his figure hid as he retreated.

This was only the first attack. Then, the void in front of Zi Chen was also split open. A sharp sword beam came towards him. However, Zi Chen didn't turn around before. He had guessed that this attack would come. Therefore, when he sensed the movement in front of him, he clenched his fist and punched.

This punch contained a great amount of power, and it directly hit the sharp blade. With a bang, this sharp blade, which was definitely at the Human level, was directly shattered by Zi Chen. In the next moment, the light of the punch flew towards the assassin in front of him.

Just as the assassin in front of him attacked, the void on both sides of Zi Chen trembled. Two more attacks appeared.

These two attacks came towards Zi Chen from the left and right. Monstrous killing intent surged in the sky. The fierce attacks had already fallen.

In the midst of the energy tremors, the blood-red light burst out in the air. Crazy energy ripples surged and spread in all directions.

Zi Chen's surroundings once again became empty and spacious.

Just now, facing four attacks at once, Zi Chen didn't move a single step. He neutralized all four attacks and even injured one of the assassins. As for the price, two of his doppelgangers were killed.

The energy dissipated. Heaven and earth became quiet again. The Heavenly Thunder Wings on Zi Chen's back were fully extended.

The thunder wings on Zi Chen's back flapped slowly. His face was full of confidence. He held the long spear in his hand and said to the void, "Again."

The surroundings were quiet. The assassin didn't continue to attack.

Suddenly, a cold smile appeared on Zi Chen's face. He said, "If you're not going to attack, then I'm going to leave."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ancient token appeared in Zi Chen's hand. Then, the ancient token glowed and enveloped him. But soon, Zi Chen's face was filled with shock. The ancient token had actually lost its effect at this moment.

The shock disappeared in a flash, but the assassin still seized the opportunity. The void around Zi Chen was torn apart at the same time. Four fierce attacks appeared again. When the monstrous killing intent surged again, the four attacks had already landed.

A light flashed under Zi Chen's feet. His body immediately turned sideways and dodged the two attacks. At the same time, the thunder wings on his back curled up. When he blocked the original attack from the side, the Dragon Soul Spear in his hand stabbed forward fiercely.

At the same time, after Zi Chen attacked with the spear, he also threw out a punch. It was a punch with perfect technique.

Zi Chen's spear blasted away the sharp blade in front of him. The fist light hit the assassin's chest. Under the powerful punch, the terrifying energy rushed into the assassin's body. The assassin's body was directly sent flying. However, just as he hid in the void, his body exploded.

The thunder wings on Zi Chen's back blocked the attack for him, but the two sharp blades approached him one after another. The two sharp blades exerted force in a bid to slash apart Zi Chen's body.

The sharp blades were originally meant to stab forward, but they were switched to slashing sideways. The strength was greatly reduced, and when they struck the Perfect Body, they only left two deep wounds. However, they were blocked by the tough bones.
