At the same time, the dazzling white light stood out conspicuously within the silvery-gray forest.

Will was like a shark that had smelled blood. The gray mist churned as he swept across the sky above the forest at top speed. In just a few breaths, he broke into the barrier and happened to run into Jiang Mo confronting a group of assassins.

"Boom!"

The barrier rippled like lake water with his arrival, and it was precisely his arrival that brought an indescribable fear to all the assassins.

Unlike Jiang Mo's ethereal appearance, Weir was more like a manifestation of misfortune and plague. His thin white qi robe was shattered, and he was surrounded by a thick gray mist mixed with countless germs.

"Who is this again?"

The elite members of the Shadow Bamboo Society felt a chill run down their spines, deliberately keeping their distance, and some even began to back away.

Even if Will does nothing but breathe gently in place, the germs in his body pour out, staining the air within the barrier like ink.

"Why....."

An elderly assassin sighed with regret. Having experienced countless battles, he could easily see the gap in strength that could not be bridged by sheer numbers.

"Enough talk, let's get started, everyone."

"Only by killing them can we possibly leave."

In the suffocating atmosphere, the elder's words drew back the curtain on a bloody battle.

Chapter 141 An overwhelming victory

Four top-tier assassins, three elders, and one president—these powerful figures standing at the pinnacle of the Shadow Bamboo Society—were their auras surging, having reached a point where they were risking their lives.

We are currently fighting on the enemy's side, and there may be other support available, so we cannot afford to delay.

They reached a consensus to attack Jiang Mo together, solely to kill him and thus dismantle the barrier beneath their feet.

"boom!"

A surge of energy erupted from the eight individuals, forming various protective mechanisms. Some condensed into armor, while others evolved into skeletons, all reaching their peak state.

"You handle these eight, and I'll take the rest?"

Will's eyes burned with a fierce light, regarding the twenty-four Earth-level assassins as fish on a chopping board, intending to wipe them all out in one fell swoop.

"can."

Jiang Mo spoke calmly and indifferently, his attention remaining focused on the eight assassins led by the chairman.

The next moment, he exerted force with his wrist, wielding the lightning chain and sweeping it horizontally. The air was sucked out and exploded, and a sharp gale split the battlefield in two.

Seeing Jiang Mo willingly fall into the encirclement, Will responded with action. Even though he was fighting with his own body, he was still incredibly fast. In an instant, he charged into the crowd, his eerie eyes darting back and forth, intently watching the blind spots in his vision.

"Shh!"

Suddenly, a hidden afterimage attacked from the side. Will reacted quickly, and with a wave of his hand, a cursed secret technique descended, and a huge, withered monkey claw appeared out of thin air, gripping the Earth-rank assassin tightly.

"what!!!"

The captured prey let out a heart-wrenching scream, and the mysterious curse from across the ocean began to take effect.

The assassin's head was covered in a dense mass of blisters, forming a ring around it. Each blister was brimming with pus, almost bursting open and overflowing. The man was in so much pain that he gritted his teeth, but there was no way to relieve the pain, and he fainted.

"call out!"

Twelve dark shadows, shaped like flying knives, burst forth with astonishing speed, sweeping across the void and locking onto Will's position. When they were less than three meters away, it was as if a spatial exchange had occurred, and the hidden weapons transformed into people. A barrage of close-quarters assassination weapons appeared, including daggers, hand spikes, and poison needles, raining down on the target standing in place.

"Oh!"

An assassin's sharp blade easily pierced Will's body, but then, something unbelievable happened.

"boom!"

"Da da da!!!"

Various hidden weapons bombarded Will's body in turn. When the assassins realized something was wrong, it was too late. The vital points of their target, which had been pierced, did not bleed at all; instead, they were made of hard stone.

"Boom!"

This stone body, entirely created using witchcraft, could not withstand the slashing and piercing of various hidden weapons and shattered into dozens of pieces.

The gray fog resembled the writhing maw of a giant beast, covering an ever-expanding area. Will appeared and disappeared intermittently, holding a dark gold dagger, with deep red blood dripping from it.

When he was surrounded, he went around to the other side and killed several people, stepping on their corpses casually.

"over there!"

"Get away from him! The air is poisonous!"

"Cough cough!!"

The assassins were horrified. Despite protecting themselves with their Qi, they had been silently infiltrated. They were all suffering from various illnesses, some even coughing up black blood and developing shocking poisonous spots on large areas of their skin.

Will surveyed the surroundings and saw many prey kneeling and struggling, taking the medicine he carried, but to no avail, tormented by pain and unable to get up.

He released as many as 390 kinds of germs, and infection was certain death. The spread from the gray fog to the defeat of the enemy took only a few minutes.

A bloody massacre ensued as he walked towards one assassin after another, his dark gold daggers like the scythe of death, slicing through their throats with effortless ease.

In terms of sheer killing efficiency, Will's characteristics surpass those of Dan Shi.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered as one grotesque, deformed head after another was severed by Will, his face expressionless as he continued to count.

The assassins with slightly better physical constitutions were still struggling to hold on, but they couldn't escape Will's ruthless hand. He stabbed them through the heart and ended their lives.

instantly.

Most of the twenty-four Earth-level assassins of the Shadow Bamboo Society didn't even have a chance to use their skills, all of them succumbing to the germs that Weir had spread in the air due to poor intelligence.

Several elders nearby were filled with rage. The losses in this battle were even more severe than they had anticipated. All of their elite forces had died at the hands of that mysterious foreigner.

However, they were too busy to even think about their own problems, and their anger was quickly replaced by fear.

"With this level of skill, you're not even as good as those old bastards from Quanxing. Why bother coming after me?"

Jiang Mo's lightning chain swept through the void with lightning speed, snapping the wooden shield of a top-tier assassin who had been cornered.

So far, the only fierce battle he has taken seriously and that he has remembered is the joint attack of those old ghosts from Quanxing, who were able to confront him head-on and exchange dozens of blows.

These deformed and distorted fruits before our eyes are far inferior.

"Don't be so arrogant, you cocky fool."

An elder stretched out his palm, facing Jiang Mo, and countless shadows let out sharp howls, as if fierce ghosts were charging in.

"Boom!"

In response to the old man, countless bolts of lightning, resembling a vertical waterfall, descended from the sky the instant Jiang Mo raised his hand, moving so fast that it was impossible to dodge them.

The elder's body was blasted into charred fragments by numerous bolts of lightning, and he passed away without even uttering a muffled groan.

The remaining chairman, two elders, and three top-tier assassins saw no hope of survival and were in a terrible mood, not to mention the presence of Will blocking their way.

Although he stood quietly in the distance, keeping his promise to Jiang Mo, he still put considerable psychological pressure on the assassins, as if foreshadowing their imminent doom.

"It's your turn."

The guild leader, still panting, trembled upon hearing Jiang Mo's words and uncontrollably retreated, his pupils filled with fear. His two protective magical artifacts had been violently destroyed not long ago, and he was now at his wit's end.

"Quick! Stop him!"

"call out--!"

Jiang Mo went straight for the enemy leader, and no one dared to stop him. He caught up with the chairman, and his right hand, transformed into Qi, pierced through the opponent's block, landing on his chest. He pressed lightly, and a burst of inch-force erupted.

"boom!"

A terrifying palm print pierced through the heart, leaving a gaping hole and dripping blood.

"Uh...uh..."

The president's pupils dilated, and he stood frozen in place, unable to utter his last words, before slowly kneeling down.

The experts present were all devastated. The exaggerated gap in strength meant that no matter how hard they tried, they could not escape this calamity.

"kill!!!"

A veteran, covered in wounds, roared angrily. His vital energy was about to be exhausted, and he rushed towards Jiang Mo, wanting nothing more than to suffer a quick death.

"I'm a kind-hearted person, let me take you to rest."

Jiang Mo crossed his arms and dragged out a transparent vortex that spread horizontally. The Heavenly Kingdom opened, moving at a speed with no delay. The terrifying pulling force accelerated the elder's figure, twisting and disappearing.

"boom!"

The vortex surged wildly, engulfing the entire barrier. Jiang Mo did not deliberately filter it, which resulted in Will also being trapped inside along with the remaining assassins.

"Buzz!"

Jiang Mo stepped into the Heavenly Kingdom and stood before the gate. The figures of the six prisoners were randomly distributed on the vast stone steps, hundreds of meters apart.

"call out."

Will was moved to Jiang Mo's side. He was still in shock, his heart was racing, and he almost thought he was going to be killed to silence him.

"You...you're not going to kill them?"

"Whether we kill them or not makes no difference since we locked them up here."

Jiang Mo shook his head and smiled faintly, taking this opportunity to issue a warning: "Do you know what happened to these assassins?"

"No....."

Will frowned slightly, a vague suspicion forming in his mind, but he couldn't be sure.

“In the heavenly kingdom I have built, there is no passage of time. In other words, there will be no material corruption here. See those prisoners? Even if they don’t eat, they will not starve to death here.”

As Jiang Mo spoke, those people rushed towards him, but they touched an invisible taboo of law. The next second, their bodies were teleported to a more distant stone step, almost turning into the size of a grain of rice.

"All that awaits them is the torture of time. Whether their minds break down or not, they cannot leave this place without my permission."

"Humans have limits, ten years, fifty years, a hundred years, and if I want, I can keep them locked up for thousands of years."

Will's palms were sweating as he listened. He naturally understood the unspoken meaning behind the secrets being told to him: if his loyal dog disobeyed orders, he would still be locked up in this desolate starry sky.

"Then...is time here the same as outside?"

Will increasingly felt how terrifying Jiang Mo was; in terms of tormenting people, he was no less ruthless than those bastards who wanted to capture him and put him in the laboratory for research.

"No, it's one to infinity."

“These people’s lives are very fragile. As you can see, the rule I’m setting now is that a hundred years in heaven is a moment in the outside world.”

"If there were no deliberate modifications or controls, and I turned around and left, and then came back in, I would see five numb, vegetative people."

At this point, Jiang Mo suddenly felt that he had been somewhat arrogant, and changed his words: "Of course, not necessarily. If their will is strong enough and they stick together for warmth, it is possible that they can survive for a hundred years."

"But it doesn't matter. I can continue to modify the rules. Next time, what will wash over their will will be thousands of years of solitude."

Will felt a chill run down his spine as he recalled his ordeal of being dragged in, the feeling of narrowly escaping torture that lingered in his mind, leaving him deeply unsettled and filled with a sense of relief.

"I... have killed enough people."

By some strange twist of fate, he uttered these words, expressing his demands in a somewhat tactful way.

"I know I won't kill you."

Jiang Mo withdrew his gaze from the assassins in the distance and said, "From now on, you will stay inside the gate and do what a vicious dog should do, helping me solve some trivial troubles."

"Can you accept that? If not, let me know in advance. You can stay and make do with those people."

Having said that, without waiting for his reply, Jiang Mo turned and strode away, preparing to leave the Heavenly Kingdom.

"I accept, wait a minute."

Seeing that Jiang Mo was about to disappear into the portal, Will didn't have time to hesitate and hurriedly followed.

Chapter 142: There is no right or wrong.

night.

Just as Si Chong finished brewing a pot of tea, a figure stepped through the air and entered through the window; it was none other than Jiang Mo, who had returned.

"Junior brother, you timed it perfectly! I just brewed the tea and haven't even served it to you yet."
