This assassin is upright

Chapter 264: Meeting on a narrow road, it was over in seconds! (Please give me a monthly ticket!)

"tread--"

After a dizzying moment, Yu Zhun had entered a primeval forest.

"Is this the secret place?" He looked around with curiosity in his eyes.

The guy who asked before said that the monsters in the secret realm would walk out of the secret realm after a certain period of time, but he didn't see any other creatures at the moment. As far as he could see, there were only lush and dense trees.

After hesitating for a moment, Yu Zhun leaped up, stepped on the tall tree canopy, and looked around to check the situation.

Soon, Yu Zhun's eyes locked on one direction.

There, there was a palace hidden in the forest.

If nothing unexpected happens, there should be something special there...

"Whoosh-"

A sound of breaking wind suddenly came.

Yu Zhun narrowed his eyes slightly, twisted his body, pulled out a dagger from his waist, and stabbed fiercely in the direction where the sound came from.

"Ping—"

With a clear sound, Yu Zhun's dagger seemed to hit a wall. The terrifying force was instantly transmitted to his wrist along the dagger, causing Yu Zhun's body to fly backwards from the tree canopy.

not good!

Yu Zhun quickly adjusted his position in mid-air and instantly activated his assassin's field, reducing the attacker's agility and pulling out the second dagger.

It was not until this moment that he could see the attacker clearly.

It was a beast with wings on its back, an eagle's head, a body as strong as a lion, and four claws as sharp as a goshawk.

Relying on his advantage of agility, Yu Zhun's dagger collided with the opponent's sharp claws again, and he flew backwards from the air and fell to the ground in an instant.

Before he could catch his breath, the lion-eagle beast had already torn through the treetops and swooped down from the sky, coming towards him ferociously.

What a cruel guy.

Seeing this scene, Yu Zhun couldn't help but take a breath.

The opponent's strength far exceeds any opponent he has encountered in the [Tianxu Holy Realm]. His strength is even higher than the Lv60 copy boss. His terrifying speed and power bring him a great sense of oppression.

If the monsters that the person who asked before was referring to were the ones in front of him, Yu Zhun could understand their despair.

"Wow—"

Accompanied by a sharp cry, the lion-eagle beast attacked Yu Zhun for the third time, causing Yu Zhun's eyes to narrow instantly.

"I said…"

"Almost done!"

As the sound echoed, Yu Zhun's figure passed straight through the huge body of the lion-eagle beast, dodging the opponent's full-strength attack while using displacement to attack the target.

[Netherworld Instant Blade] equipment effect, [Instant Blade]!
【Life-1975520】

Looking at the blood bar above the lion-eagle beast's head reduced by about 10%, Yu Zhun sighed.

"Your blood is a bit thick."

As he spoke, Yu Zhun suddenly grabbed a feather of the lion-eagle beast.

When he killed the wolf beast before, he did not think of using [A Thief Never Leaves Empty-Handed]. The main reason was that he had just entered the [Tianxu Holy Realm] at that time and did not have a deep understanding of his own abilities. He thought that the wolf beast had nothing to steal.

But now...

【A thief never leaves empty-handed】, start!

He plucked the feather of the lion-eagle beast and turned around casually. The lion-eagle beast let out a wail and its health bar was emptied in an instant.

One hit kill, triggered!
"boom!!!"

With a dull sound, the huge body of the lion-eagle beast fell to the ground with a loud bang, and turned into ashes in the next moment.

Seeing the black airflow left behind by the other party's death, Yu Zhun's eyes widened and he subconsciously exclaimed, "Oh my god!"

This amount of vow power alone is equal to the total amount of all the vow power he had obtained in the past!

Seeing that his wish power value was about to break a thousand, Yu Zhun's eyes suddenly became hot.

A vicious monster?

No, this is simply the power of walking will!
Without any hesitation, Yu Zhun jumped up again, walking lightly on the treetops, aiming directly at the palace in the forest. At the same time, he looked around, hoping to attract a few more big guys like the one just now.

Soon, accompanied by a sharp cry, the second lion-eagle beast appeared and rushed towards Yu Zhun.

"Well done!"

Yu Zhun let out a low shout, activated [Hunting], and instantly appeared on the opponent's broad back. Before the second lion-eagle beast could react, he had already grabbed the feathers on the opponent's wings.

【A thief never leaves empty-handed】, start!

The second one... The third one...

One after another, Griffonmon died at the hands of Yu Zhun. Among them, there was a Griffonmon that was as powerful as Griffonmon, but had multiple tails. Yu Zhun also pulled out one of its tails and it died on the spot.

By the time Yu Zhun arrived in front of the target palace, his wish power value had soared to more than four thousand due to the killing along the way.

"Let alone anything else, just these wish points are enough to make this trip worthwhile." Yu Zhun said happily, while looking at the palace in front of him warily.

This is a huge palace with a scale of more than a thousand meters, divided into dozens of side halls. The external structure of the palace is completely made up of tree trunks and branches, and it looks as if it grew naturally.

The palace had no gate, and the pitch-black entrance seemed to be able to swallow up the light, making Yu Zhun unable to see anything going on inside.

Do you want to come in?

A thoughtful look appeared on Yu Zhun's face, and at this moment he thought of another thing.

The secret realm can be destroyed.

In such a vast secret realm, it is simply impossible for him to destroy everything inside by relying on his absolute strength.

So if his guess was correct, this secret realm should have a key similar to a core.

As long as this key is destroyed, the secret realm will be destroyed.

And this key...

It is most likely in the palace in front of us.

Thinking of this, Yu Zhun's eyes became more determined.

"It's decided, let's go in and take a look." Yu Zhun said softly, and walked step by step into the entrance of the palace.

His figure was quickly swallowed by the darkness until he disappeared completely.

As Yu Zhun entered the palace, the surrounding forest returned to its previous silence, but this silence was soon broken again.

A handsome man rushed over from the other direction of the forest and soon landed at the gate of the palace.

"These wish beasts are really difficult to deal with." The man said in a low voice, "If I didn't want to leave them to rush out and harvest faith, I really want to kill all these beasts in one go."

He shook his head and then looked towards the palace.

"According to the intelligence, there is a core area in each secret realm of will, and most opportunities are hidden here."

"At the same time, the key to destroying the secret realm - the heart of the secret realm is also located in the core of the secret realm."

"This should be the core of this secret place." As he spoke, there was a hint of excitement in the man's eyes.

He walked quickly towards the entrance, but suddenly stopped and looked down at his feet.

The next moment, the man's eyes suddenly turned cold.

There are footprints.

There was actually someone who entered the core area of ​​the secret realm earlier than him?

Is he the native inhabitant of [Tianxu Holy Realm]? Other disciples of Tianxu Divine Palace? Or...

Players from the Palace of Gods and Demons?

Thinking of the last possibility, the man rushed into the core of the secret realm without hesitation.

If there is a way to heaven, you don’t take it; if there is no door to hell, you just force your way through it.

If he really is a player from the Palace of Gods and Demons, that would be great.

After crossing a dark passage, Yu Zhun finally saw light again, and a magnificent and empty main hall appeared before his eyes.

There are statues of various shapes standing in the main hall, and there are a large number of carved patterns on the walls inside, which looks very mysterious.

After inspecting the main hall and confirming that there were no abnormalities with the stone carvings and patterns, Yu Zhun's gaze fell on the passage inside the main hall.

In the main hall in front of us, there are three passages side by side, leading to three different side halls.

These side halls may later intersect with each other, or they may lead to completely different new side halls.

After hesitating for a moment, a look of decisiveness appeared in Yu Zhun's eyes.

He quickened his pace and rushed towards the passage on the far left.

When I stepped out of the passage again, what appeared in front of me was a side hall that was much smaller than the main hall, only about 100 square meters, and the interior was clearly visible.

Yu Zhun's gaze swept across the hall, and finally stopped on the stone pillar that stood abruptly in the center of the side hall and had a large number of exquisite reliefs.

The tip of a dagger pierced into the top of the stone pillar, leaving only the end exposed.

dagger…

It seems that my choice is very good.

A smile appeared in Yu Zhun's eyes. He stretched out his hand, tightly grasped the handle of the dagger, and then pulled it out with force.
-
"boom--"

With a sudden palm strike, a stone sculpture in the main hall was smashed to pieces. The handsome man looked at the three passages that appeared in front of him with an uncertain expression.

"Damn it, there is a fork in the road at the core of this secret realm."

Now, it became increasingly difficult for him to catch up with the previous guy who entered.

After looking carefully at the three passages, the man's eyes finally fell on the middle passage.

He was about to take a step toward the passage when a slight sound stopped him instantly.

"Click——"

The man's eyes suddenly turned to the shattered stone statue beside him, and saw that the scattered stones quickly gathered together again, pieced together into their original appearance, and the broken cracks quietly disappeared.

The stone statue tilted its head, and the next moment a terrifying aura emerged.

The man's expression became increasingly ugly.

There is a trap in the core of the secret realm?!——
"Chong-"

With the sound of metal, the silver-white blade of the dagger pulled out from the top of the stone pillar drew a cold arc of light in the air.

At the same time, a line of text appeared in front of Yu Zhun.

[Pure Blade: Has the property of being indestructible. Normally it is an ordinary weapon. Consumes 200 Willpower points and can make the blade penetrate anything that does not have the indestructible property. Cooldown 10s]

"this…"

Yu Zhun couldn't help but be amazed.

Penetrates everything that is not indestructible.

It sounds a bit like something that is indestructible.

But this consumption is indeed a bit shocking.

The wish power item [Soul-Hunting Curse] obtained before can kill a target instantly, and it only consumes 120 wish power points.

Forget it, at this stage it’s better to have some power than nothing.

After putting away the [Pure Blade], Yu Zhun looked towards the entrance of the hall.

There are only two entrances in this small side hall.

The one on the left is the entrance through which he came, and the one on the right is the entrance leading to an unknown place.

In this case, there is no need to choose.

Yu Zhun flashed into the passage on the right and quickly arrived at the second side hall.

The second side hall is larger than the first one. With the experience of the previous side hall, Yu Zhun directly turned his attention to the central area of ​​the side hall this time.

A touch of bright light instantly attracted his attention.

It was a pink gem suspended in mid-air, and its extraordinaryness could be felt just from its appearance.

There is no doubt that this is another prop of wish power.

"There are so many good things in this secret realm." Yu Zhun couldn't help but sigh.

The two side halls in the front and back both store props for making wishes.

If every side hall is like this, then you will really make a fortune after this trip.

As he spoke, Yu Zhun raised his foot and walked towards the gem.

But the next moment, his steps suddenly stopped, his eyes became sharp, he pulled out the dagger in an instant, and disappeared on the spot.

"Chong-"

The sound of metal colliding suddenly rang out.

Yu Zhun, who reappeared, had already arrived at the entrance of another passage in the side hall, and another figure, who had just walked out of the entrance, raised the sword in his hand with a sullen face to block Yu Zhun's attack.

He was a handsome man wearing a golden robe, with an inexplicably powerful aura surging around him.

Yu Zhun felt a vague sense of familiarity from the other person.

Well, I remembered it.

It’s the pretentious aura of the disciples of Tianxu Divine Palace!
His eyes narrowed instantly, and Yu Zhun looked at the other person with a bit more hostility in his eyes, "A disciple of Tianxu Divine Palace?"

"Hehe~" The handsome man was initially astonished, but now there was a bit of greed and surprise in his eyes as he looked at Yu Zhun.

"I actually met a player from the Palace of Gods and Demons."

"You are the one who made Dongtu lose face?"

"Ant, remember my name."

"I am from Tianxu Palace..."

"Click——"

"Click——"

Before the other party could finish his words, two consecutive shattering sounds came from his body. The blood bar above his head was emptied twice and returned to a full blood state.

"You people from Tianxu Divine Palace all like to show off so much?"

Yu Zhun leisurely snatched the opponent's sword, and without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, he directly took out a small black wooden box.

Wish item [Soul-chasing Curse].

Kill it for me!

120 points of willpower were instantly deducted, and the opponent's health was once again emptied.

This time, the health bar did not recover.

The handsome man stopped talking abruptly, stared at Yu Zhun with wide eyes, a look of confusion and astonishment on his face.

"Huh?" Yu Zhun's face was also filled with surprise. "You are so poor, and you only have two life-saving props?"

"Seven of Dongtu's life-saving soldiers died in my hands. How dare you?"

"I..." The handsome man's expression suddenly became aggrieved.

How could he only have two means of protection?

But just now in the main hall, he smashed a stone sculpture in anger, which led to the opponent's counterattack, and more stone sculptures were smashed in the fight...

Then, he handed over almost all the means he had.

He opened his mouth in frustration, wanting to say something, but the next moment his figure turned into a streak of light and disappeared. Only two props fell, and at the same time, an extremely thick black airflow instantly flew towards Yu Zhun.

With this wave alone, Yu Zhun’s wish power value skyrocketed by more than two thousand.

"He also left me two wish-power props. This guy is really good." Yu Zhun looked at the props on the ground and couldn't help muttering, "But then again, what's his name?"

"Forget it, forget it. Nobodies are not important anymore."

Yu Zhun picked up the two props on the ground and took a look at them casually.

One defensive type, one support type.

Neither suits him very well.

Shaking his head, Yu Zhun picked up the pink gem.

[Stone of Blessing: can consume the power of will to temporarily improve the specified attribute, lasting 30s]

Ok?
