Chapter 1200: Chapter 854: Return to the Abyss

“This time, the mess we’ve gotten into is quite significant. Although the headquarters will handle it, we should still prioritize avoidance and ensure our safety. Let’s pause our local operations for now.”

Suddenly, such a major event occurred, with the fall of a Saint. Even though Star Killer is confident, he knows he must hide.

“I don’t know why, but recently has been a bad year. The Xing Family has been wiped out, Starshine has shifted, so we had to go into hiding. And now it’s happening again, sigh…”

Star Killer sighed. He hid during the Starshine upheaval, and now he has to hide again.

This has quite an impact on the business of the Assassin’s League in this state.

But anything that might lead to sending oneself to death should be avoided.

They are assassins, not warriors…

“There shouldn’t be any problems with the Roses. They can continue to shelter with the Suns, and we’ll find another way.”

“Safety first and foremost.”

“We’ll meet again!”

The three Catastrophe Level individuals were certainly not fools. They quickly split up and left the area, heading in different directions.

Meanwhile, each of them continuously used various Anti-Divination Tools to strengthen themselves and moved as discreetly as possible…

Afterwards, Tao Yu promptly retrieved the Magic Ring and had his Rotating Tomb Avatar return as he moved towards a nearby place called Triple City.

As he advanced, Tao Yu began examining the spoils of this battle, and upon seeing the Saint’s corpse, he confirmed it with the information in his mind.

“So it’s him…”

Tao Yu raised his eyebrows. This Saint’s name was Lei Jingtian, a well-known Saint in the State Capital, and he held considerable prestige among the Saints.

He was an Elder of the top family in the State Capital, the Lei Family, and the only Saint in the family. Though he seldom dealt with affairs, he possessed the rare achievement of having killed a Saintly Position strongman.

He had once killed a Fallen Saint, gaining widespread fame.

He was also a member of the board of the White Star Group, which could be seen as a vassal of the Bai Family. Due to Lei Jingtian’s strength, he also received attention from the Bai Family.

“The Lei Family produces warriors skilled in direct combat, almost every Lei Family expert excels in frontal battles, and the more injured they are, the stronger they become. They possess the Berserker bloodline that can unleash terrifying power in dire situations. But it seems all the reputation and appearances of the Lei Family serve to highlight this ancestor of theirs…”

Tao Yu observed Lei Jingtian’s corpse and sighed.

This person possessed extremely advanced concealment techniques, almost managing to deceive Tao Yu!

If not for the disquieting feeling while preparing to act against the other Saint, and the subsequent meticulous investigation, he might have fallen into the opponent’s trap.

Though he killed Lei Jingtian in one swift Sword strike, he used all his means, and the damage from this explosive strike was nearly at its peak.

Now, with Lei Jingtian’s remains in hand, Tao Yu gradually analyzed the differences through data and study.

This ancestor from the Berserker-producing family wielded a terrifying attack that concentrated all his life’s Qi-Blood into a point, almost instantly self-damaging.

Combined with his concealment abilities, such an earth-shattering blow could even allow him to triumph over stronger foes!

Actually, Lei Jingtian was also an Innate Assassination Saint Body.

Because of the relationship forged by family inheritance, talent, bloodline, skill, and style, other enemies facing Lei Jingtian might first perceive him as a direct brute.

He hid extremely well…

“As expected, even with my evident superiority in strength, I cannot underestimate any Saint.”

The fact that it caused him to be cautious indicates Lei Jingtian could potentially threaten him, even if maximum power met minimum vulnerability, it remains a threat.

“Obtaining three Sacred Objects at once, that’s quite impressive. Although they all have various restrictions, selling them casually at an auction would fetch at least thirty billion in proceeds.”

Tao Yu took out the three Sacred Objects.

They all had various restrictions such as bloodline sacrifices and pollution bindings, making it difficult for others to use them or requiring considerable effort to manage.

Nevertheless, it can’t conceal their price!

“But for me, I can use them right away. I will keep them to be stored in my Soul Cutting Sword Unsealing. Selling them in an emergency is also an option.”

Due to the difference in Deification costs now, there’s no urgency to sell them immediately, since throwing them out for sale just after obtaining them seems too obvious. Keeping them is also beneficial.

[Soul-Attracting Bell] Lei Jingtian’s fused Sacred Object, it has the effect of immobilizing others’ souls when the bell is rung, even neutralizing Sacred Intent and causing Saints to briefly lose focus.

[God-Destroying Needle] Another hand-held Sacred Object of Lei Jingtian, possessing an ability to penetrate defenses, paralyze, and wither flesh and soul with its powerful piercing capabilities.

A standard assassin’s ensemble, while the [Gathering Soldiers Ring] primarily disrupts others’ Sacred Objects summoned, is categorized as a support tool.

None are weak, but none are necessities for him. If the price is right in the future, they can be sold…

…

On the rugged mountain path shrouded in gray mist, due to years of neglect, the path showed signs of collapse everywhere, with many parts cracked open exposing the underlying ground, and uneven along the way.

On this winding mountain road that’s barely identifiable as a path, with only two lanes wide.

Three pickup trucks were swiftly driving with skilled techniques, navigating through the low visibility of the gray mist.

Mud kicked up by the tires splattered continuously, with occasional drifts to avoid obstacles ahead.
