Chapter 1277: Chapter 531: Perfect Plan [Request for Subscription]_2
In an instant, a silvery-white magical shield condensed in front of Zhou Chun, blocking the white sword arc shooting through the air!
Even though it was a divine skill wielded by a Nascent Soul Stage True Person, and even if it was only a fraction of its normal power, it wasnât something a Golden Core Middle Stage cultivator could break with a single strike.
When the white sword arc fell on the silvery-white shield, although the silver light on the shield flared, creating a powerful ripple of collision, it soon ended with the Formless Flying Sword being rebounded away.
In contrast, although the silvery-white shield dimmed a little, it still firmly protected Zhou Chun within.
No wonder Baiyue True Person was so confident at the time, saying that the Divine Ability Talisman could allow Zhou Chun to withstand the attack of a Golden Core Late Stage cultivator for an hour.
The assassin seemed also surprised that he had such a defensive Divine Ability Talisman on him.
Seeing his carefully planned attack fail completely, an expression of shock and disbelief appeared on his indistinct face.
For a moment, he stopped his assault.
Seeing this, Zhou Chun looked at the assassin with a calm face and said, âWhy are you not attacking, sir? Are you intending to give up?â
âZhou Mou heard about the Ice Hell Sectâs rules for assassins: once an assassin confirms they cannot kill the target, the mission is considered a failure. Then, the employer can either choose to increase the reward or cancel the mission and forfeit the deposit!â
âI wonder what you plan to do now, sir?â
At the end of his words, a hint of mockery appeared in his eyes, seemingly ridiculing the assassin.
Hearing his words, the assassin did not get angry but said in a low tone, âA remote family cultivator like you actually knows the reputation and rules of my sect; it seems youâve been guided by someone from the Moon Wheel Sect!â
With a cold tone, he continued, âBut do you think that relying on a Divine Ability Talismanâs defense will make me give up so easily?â
After speaking, as if to prove his point, he immediately continued to use the Formless Flying Sword and the white mirror Dharma Treasure to launch a new round of attacks on Zhou Chun.
Indeed, this assassin found himself in a difficult position now.
After the failed assassination attempt, he was able to increase the reward through unbalanced intelligence feedback and obtain a Divine Ability Talisman, but he also made a military pledge.
If he returned without results again, he wouldnât receive any reward and would have to compensate his sect for the used Divine Ability Talisman with a large sum of money and resources, and his status as a top assassin would be downgraded!
This significant loss was unacceptable to him.
So as long as there was a chance, he couldnât give up this assassination.
Zhou Chun, of course, was unaware of these internal matters.
Seeing that the opposite assassin hadnât given up, he was not angry but laughed instead.
Now that he used the Divine Ability Talisman, he actually feared that the other would retreat, completely giving up the assassination attempt on him.
In that case, he might have to face a Golden Core Late Stage assassin later.
But since the opponent wasnât giving up yet, he could try to carry out his plan.
Relying on the shield created by the Divine Ability Talisman, he directly abandoned other defenses and focused entirely on harnessing the Taibai Slice Flood Dragon Sword and the Myriad Transformations Golden Cauldron to counterattack the assassin.
Even though the assassin found it hard to break the silvery-white shield for the moment, he easily avoided the attacks.
Especially since the world was covered in a frosty white, directly providing the assassin with a home advantage.
He even used the Ice Escape Technique to dodge attacks right before Zhou Chun.
Judging from his easy execution of the Ice Escape Technique, he had mastered the technique to a high level, suitable for actual combat.
This made Zhou Chun cautious, not daring to use his trump cards lightly, lest they be dodged through his escape techniques.
Time passed slowly, and nearly an hour went by.
The battle fluctuations between the two Golden Core Stage cultivators had already attracted many nearby cultivators who were observing from afar.
The silvery-white shield around Zhou Chun had dimmed a lot, looking like it wouldnât last much longer.
At this point, Zhou Chun seemed a bit intimidated, directly retreating from attacking the assassin and flying off with the shield in tow.
Seeing this, the assassin was overjoyed and urgently pursued, intent on killing.
The two Golden Core Stage cultivators, one pursuing and the other fleeing, quickly disappeared from the sight of those lower and middle-tier cultivators watching from the shadows.
After chasing and fleeing for several hundred miles, Zhou Chun was intercepted above a desolate mountain.
âBoy, your turtle shell is about to break. Letâs see how arrogant you can still be now!â
In the sky, the Ice Hell Sect assassin, while fiercely attacking Zhou Chun with his flying sword, couldnât help but mock him.
In the previous fight, the assassin had endured quite a bit of verbal attack from Zhou Chun, which he couldnât tolerate further.
Yet Zhou Chun snorted defiantly, âHumph, havenât you also used up most of your mana? Who will win and who will lose is still uncertain!â
Saying so, he suddenly raised his hand and patted the Spirit Beast Pouch at his waist, releasing the Thunder Flood Dragon Baibai.
Hmm?
Seeing Zhou Chun suddenly releasing a Third Order mid-grade Demon Beast, the assassin was slightly stunned.
He wasnât unaware that Zhou Chun had spirit pets.
In fact, the information provided by the Green Lotus Temple was very comprehensive, detailing all of Zhou Chunâs spirit pets except the Wood Charm.
However, because Zhou Chun had never revealed in front of others that he had mastered the Beast Spirit Fusion Technique, the information from Green Lotus Temple did not include any notes on this.
