The hot springs water bubbled about

The hot springs water bubbled about. By now, Linley was at the bottom of the hot springs.

This hot springs pool wasn’t very deep, at most around two meters or so. Right now, Linley was pressing his body against the bottom of the pool. The water of the springs was very clear, and Linley could vaguely see what was going on outside.

“Who are these people? Why were the warriors of the Radiant Church outside unable to take a single blow from them?” Linley’s mind was full of suspicions. No matter what, at the very least the warriors of the Radiant Church outside were of the fifth rank. Every one of them possessed the ability to use battle-qi.

Could it be that for some reason, these warriors were not able to use battle-qi to block that black fog?

Linley didn’t understand what was going on, so for now, he did not dare to come out and directly resist the black fog!

“Linley, that black fog should be a fairly common darkness-style spell known as the ‘Corrosive Fog’. You can definitely use battle-qi to resist its effects.” Doehring Cowart’s voice rang out in Linley’s mind.

“But those warriors of the Radiant Church…”

“They should have been attacked by a different sort of spell that bewilders the mind, preventing them from utilizing their battle-qi in time to defend against the spell.” This was Doehring Cowart’s deduction.

“Gurgle, gurgle.”

From around Linley’s body, a gust of wind began to billow outwards. It was the wind-style spell, Windscout. Linley could totally sense everything which was going on outside.

“Quick, no matter what the cost, we have to kill Linley.” The leader in black said coldly.

The other five black robed men all nodded, charging towards the hot springs at high speed.

Right at this moment…

“Swish!”

Like an arrow, Linley shot out of the pool into the air, splattering beads of water everywhere. And then, Linley descended from above them like a fierce tiger leaping down from the mountains, his five fingers formed into claws as he ripped towards the head of one of the black robed men.

“Hmph.” That black-robed man’s body quivered slightly, as he prepared to use his left arm to forcibly block Linley’s claw attack, while stabbing out with the sharp knife in his right hand.

A hint of a vicious smile appeared on Linley’s face.

Suddenly, a bluish-black Dragonblood battle-qi covered the right arm of Linley, which was attacking with a claw hand. The layer of Dragonblood battle-qi was very thin. Given its thinness and the fact that the surrounding area was full of the dark ‘Corrosive Fog’, it wasn’t very visible at all. Most importantly…sharp claws suddenly appeared from where Linley’s fingernails had been.

“Shiiiiirk!” Linley’s right hand easily pierced through the black-robed man’s shoulder blade. At the same time, Linley once again used force on his right hand, giving it a fierce twist.

“Crack!”

The entire left chest of the black-robed man exploded, casting fresh blood everywhere. The black-robed man instantly died, but right before his death, he stared in disbelief, because his knife had stabbed Linley’s body but didn’t leave a mark at all.

“A seventh rank Earthguard armor is made out of jadestone. Do you think jadestone is so easily overcome?” Linley said to himself. “Much less, aside from the layer of jadestone armor, the skin on my body can instantly transform into the Dragonblood Warrior’s scales.”

Right now, when under the full Dragonblood Warrior state, Linley had the power of a warrior of the early eighth rank.

And when using the ‘Dragonform’, Linley had inherited the hallmark property of the Armored Razorback Wyrm; incredible defensive powers. Linley’s black scales were much stronger than the jadestone armor. Judging from the power of that stab by the black-robed man, he had most likely been an expert of the seventh rank.

Unfortunately, the defensive abilities of that expert of the seventh rank were totally unable to defend against this claw attack by Linley. Those were the draconic claws of a transformed Dragonblood Warrior. And what’s more, this was only the Demidragon state.

“How is that possible?” The other four black-robed men were stunned.

Based on their information, Linley was a dual-element magus of the seventh rank, and his warrior abilities were far weaker. They didn’t expect that an assassin of the seventh rank couldn’t withstand a single blow from him.

“Our intelligence was wrong!” The leader of the black-robed men standing in the very back cursed in his heart.

But Linley only nodded mentally to himself. “It seems that when using a partial transformation, one can catch the opponent off-guard and make them suffer a serious loss.”

“You Cult of Shadows bastards!” Furious roars could be heard ringing out from outside, travelling at high speed towards the Hot Springs Garden. Linley understood that another group of the Knights of the Radiant Church charged with his protection had arrived. Only ten or so people had been killed just now, while his total guard numbered over a hundred.

The expression on the face of the leader of the black-robed men changed.

“No matter the cost, kill Linley!” The black-robed leader shouted.

And then he led the four remaining black-robed men to surround and attack Linley. The black knives in their hands gleamed with a dark aura, as they seemed to have infused every last bit of their power into the knives in their hands.

An attack which they were willing to give up their own lives to make!

“Warriors of the seventh rank, right?”

Seeing the group attack of these black-robed men, Linley didn’t dodge or hide at all. With his right hand, Linley gently touched his waist. Suddenly….

A cold, fierce, brilliant violet light flashed.

At the same time, Linley retreated at high speed towards the back. Of the five people attacking Linley, four remained at their original spots, while the fifth, the leader, hurriedly retreated at high speed.

“Shirrrrrrrrrrrk!”

The stomachs of those four black-robed men were sliced open. Their stomach and intestines fell to the ground, and blood sprayed everywhere.

“Fast. And sharp.” The leader of the black-robed men stared in astonishment at Linley.

A single sword stroke killing four warriors of the seventh rank. This example was really too terrifying.

Linley knew very well how sharp this Bloodviolet Godsword was, but just based on Bloodviolet’s natural sharpness alone, it might be difficult to penetrate the defense of a magical beast of the seventh rank. Similarly, if a warrior of the seventh rank was to use battle-qi to protect his body, at the very most, Linley would only be able to heavily injure them, not kill them.

But just then, those four black-robed men had been using all of the energy on their attacks!

They didn’t expect Linley to have such a sword on him.

“If I want to enhance the power of Bloodviolet, I would have to activate it via my Dragonblood battle-qi. But if I use the Dragonblood battle-qi, the speed of Bloodviolet will be slower than if I used my wind-style mageforce to activate it.” At this moment, Linley was pondering the pros and cons of each.

Just then, it was true that Linley had used a single strike to kill the four of them.

What he relied on was his astonishing speed, an attack so fast that his opponents weren’t able to respond to it!

But just relying on speed and the sharpness of his sword would generally only be enough to kill a warrior of the sixth rank, or to heavily wound a warrior of the seventh rank. Only if the warrior of the seventh rank were to act like these four assassins and concentrate all of their battle-qi on their attack, not caring about their lives and sparing nothing for defense, would he be able to kill them.

“But the leader didn’t suffer much of an injury.” Linley looked at the leader of the black-robed men.

This black-robed man’s power should most likely have exceeded the seventh rank.

Using wind-style mageforce on Bloodviolet could make Bloodviolet move faster and make its movements more smooth. But it couldn’t raise the attacking power! But if he were to use Dragonblood battle-qi on Bloodviolet, he could increase the attack power but wouldn’t be able to increase his attack speed.

“You pieces of trash!”

Angry roars erupted from right outside the Hot Springs Garden. Clearly, these Knights of the Radiant Church had just seen the corpses of their companions and were all furious now.

“Linley, you are even more formidable than we thought you were. But unfortunately, you have sided with the Radiant Church. Thus…” The black-robed leader seemed to pay no attention at all to those who were outside, as he spoke in a soft voice to Linley.

The black-robed leader’s voice seemed to carry a certain unique timbre to it. At first, Linley didn’t notice anything, but by the time the black-robed man was halfway through his words, Linley could feel his mind grow a bit blurry and his focus waver.

“You must die!”

The black knife of the black-robed man arrived almost instantly at Linley’s chest.

“Linley!” Doehring Cowart’s mental roar echoed in Linley’s mind, instantly bringing Linley back to his senses.

“Crunch!”

The black-robed leader stared at his waist in astonishment. His waist had suddenly been bitten almost in half. His exposed muscles were still trembling, and blood was pouring out in a torrent. The black-robed man could clearly feel that his entire body had lost all strength. His life-force was quickly draining away.

“This Shadowmouse…”

The black-robed leader stared stupidly at the black Shadowmouse by Linley’s side.

A black Shadowmouse should at most be a magical beast of the third or fourth ranks. To this black-robed leader, as a warrior of the eighth rank, a black Shadowmouse shouldn’t be able to injure him at all. This was why the black-robed leader hadn’t paid any attention to it.

But…

Just then, that little black Shadowmouse had flown over, q

Air panasnya menggelegak tentang. Sekarang, Linley adalah di bagian bawah air panas.Kolam air panas ini tidak sangat mendalam, di paling sekitar dua meter atau lebih. Tepat sekarang, Linley adalah menekan tubuhnya terhadap dasar kolam. Air mata-mata adalah sangat jelas, dan Linley samar-samar bisa melihat apa yang terjadi di luar."Yang adalah orang-orang ini? Mengapa ada warriors gereja Radiant luar mampu mengambil satu pukulan dari mereka? " Linley's pikiran itu penuh kecurigaan. Tidak peduli apa, setidaknya warriors gereja Radiant luar yang peringkat kelima. Masing-masing dari mereka memiliki kemampuan untuk menggunakan pertempuran-qi.Mungkinkah bahwa untuk beberapa alasan, prajurit ini sudah tidak mampu menggunakan pertempuran-qi untuk memblokir kabut hitam itu?Linley tidak mengerti apa yang sedang terjadi, sehingga untuk saat ini, ia tidak berani untuk keluar dan langsung menolak kabut hitam!"Linley, yang hitam kabut harus mantra kegelapan-gaya yang cukup umum yang dikenal sebagai 'Kabut korosif'. Anda dapat benar-benar menggunakan pertempuran-qi untuk melawan dampaknya." Suara Doehring Cowart berdering di Linley's pikiran."Tetapi mereka prajurit Radiant Jemaat...""Mereka harus telah diserang oleh berbeda semacam mantra yang bewilders pikiran, mencegah mereka untuk memanfaatkan mereka pertempuran-qi dalam waktu untuk membela melawan mantra." Ini adalah Doehring Cowart pemotongan."Gurgle, gurgle."Dari sekitar tubuh Linley's, embusan angin mulai segarnya keluar. Itu mantra angin-gaya, Windscout. Linley benar-benar bisa merasakan segala sesuatu yang terjadi di luar."Cepat, tidak peduli apa biaya, kita harus membunuh Linley." Pemimpin hitam mengatakan dingin.Lima hitam robed orang lain semua mengangguk, pengisian menuju air panas pada kecepatan tinggi.Tepat pada saat ini..."Desir!"Seperti Panah, Linley menembak keluar dari kolam ke udara, membasahi manik-manik air di mana-mana. Dan kemudian, Linley turun dari atas mereka seperti tiger sengit melompat turun dari pegunungan, lima jari membentuk ke cakar seperti dia robek ke bagian kepala dari salah satu laki-laki robed hitam."Hmph." Tubuh manusia berjubah hitam bergetar sedikit, saat ia siap untuk menggunakan lengan kiri untuk paksa memblokir serangan cakar Linley's, sementara menikam keluar dengan pisau tajam di tangan kanan-Nya.Tanda-tanda senyum setan muncul di Linley's wajah.Tiba-tiba, kebiruan-hitam Dragonblood pertempuran-qi ditutupi lengan kanan Linley, yang menyerang dengan tangan cakar. Lapisan Dragonblood pertempuran-qi adalah sangat tipis. Mengingat thinness nya dan fakta bahwa daerah sekitarnya penuh dengan gelap 'kabut korosif', itu tidak sangat terlihat sama sekali. Paling penting... tajam cakar tiba-tiba muncul dari mana kuku Linley's telah."Shiiiiirk!" Linley di kanan dengan mudah menembus berjubah hitam laki-laki itu bahu. Pada saat yang sama, Linley sekali lagi menggunakan kekuatan di tangan kanannya, memberikan sentuhan sengit."Crack!"Dada kiri seluruh orang berjubah hitam meledak, pengecoran darah segar di mana-mana. Pria berjubah hitam langsung mati, tapi tepat sebelum kematiannya, ia menatap percaya, karena pisaunya telah ditusuk tubuh Linley's tapi tidak meninggalkan tanda sama sekali."Tujuh peringkat Earthguard armor terbuat dari jadestone. Apakah Anda pikir jadestone begitu mudah diatasi?" Linley berkata kepada dirinya sendiri. "Apalagi, selain dari lapisan baja jadestone, kulit di tubuh saya dapat langsung mengubah menjadi prajurit Dragonblood timbangan."Tepat sekarang, saat berada di bawah negara Dragonblood prajurit lengkap, Linley memiliki kekuatan seorang prajurit dari peringkat kedelapan awal.Dan ketika menggunakan 'Dragonform', Linley mewarisi milik hallmark lapis baja Razorback Wyrm; kekuatan defensif yang luar biasa. Linley's hitam skala yang jauh lebih kuat daripada jadestone baju besi. Menilai dari kekuatan yang menusuk oleh pria berjubah hitam, ia kemungkinan besar telah ahli peringkat ketujuh.Sayangnya, kemampuan defensif yang ahli peringkat ketujuh tidak benar-benar mampu membela terhadap serangan cakar ini oleh Linley. Mereka adalah draconic cakar Dragonblood Warrior berubah. Dan apa lagi, ini hanya Demidragon negara."Bagaimanakah ini terjadi?" Empat berjubah hitam orang lain tercengang.Berdasarkan informasi mereka, Linley adalah dua-elemen magus peringkat ketujuh, dan kemampuannya prajurit yang jauh lebih lemah. Mereka tidak mengharapkan bahwa seorang pembunuh peringkat ketujuh tidak bisa menahan satu pukulan dari-nya."Kecerdasan kita adalah salah!" Pemimpin berjubah hitam orang yang berdiri di belakang sangat dikutuk di dalam hatinya.Tetapi Linley hanya mengangguk mental untuk dirinya sendiri. "Tampaknya bahwa bila menggunakan transformasi parsial, seseorang dapat menangkap lawan off-penjaga dan membuat mereka menderita kerugian serius.""Anda bajingan kultus bayang-bayang!" Marah mengaum bisa mendengar dering keluar dari luar, bepergian kecepatan tinggi ke arah kebun Hot Springs. Linley memahami bahwa kelompok lain dari kesatria Radiant Jemaat dituntut dengan perlindungannya tiba. Hanya sepuluh atau lebih orang telah tewas sekarang, sementara penjaga total berjumlah lebih dari seratus.Ekspresi wajah pemimpin orang berjubah hitam yang berubah."Tidak peduli biaya, membunuh Linley!" Pemimpin berjubah hitam berteriak.Dan kemudian ia membawa empat tersisa pria berjubah hitam mengelilingi dan menyerang Linley. Pisau hitam di tangan mereka yang berkilau dengan aura yang gelap, karena mereka tampaknya telah ditanamkan setiap terakhir sedikit kekuasaan mereka ke dalam pisau di tangan mereka.Serangan yang mereka bersedia untuk menyerah kehidupan mereka sendiri untuk membuat!"Prajurit peringkat ketujuh, benar?"Melihat serangan kelompok orang berjubah hitam ini, Linley tidak menghindari atau menyembunyikan sama sekali. Dengan tangan kanan, Linley lembut menyentuh pinggangnya. Tiba-tiba...Berkelebat cahaya ungu yang dingin, sengit, brilian.Pada saat yang sama, Linley mundur kecepatan tinggi ke arah belakang. Dari lima orang yang menyerang Linley, empat tetap di tempat asal mereka, sementara kelima, pemimpin, buru-buru mundur kecepatan tinggi."Shirrrrrrrrrrrk!"Perut pria berjubah hitam empat orang yang diiris terbuka. Lambung dan usus mereka jatuh ke tanah, dan darah disemprotkan di mana-mana."Cepat. Dan tajam. Pemimpin orang berjubah hitam menatap heran di Linley.Stroke satu pedang membunuh empat prajurit peringkat ketujuh. Contoh ini benar-benar terlalu menakutkan.Linley tahu sangat baik bagaimana tajam Bloodviolet Godsword ini, tetapi hanya berdasar pada Bloodviolet's alam ketajaman sendirian, mungkin sulit untuk menembus pertahanan binatang magis peringkat ketujuh. Demikian pula, jika seorang prajurit dari peringkat ketujuh untuk menggunakan pertempuran-qi untuk melindungi tubuh-Nya, di bagian paling paling, Linley hanya akan mampu sangat melukai mereka, tidak membunuh mereka.Tapi kemudian, mereka yang berjubah hitam empat orang telah menggunakan semua energi pada serangan mereka!Mereka tidak mengharapkan Linley untuk memiliki seperti sebuah pedang kepadanya."Jika saya ingin meningkatkan kekuatan Bloodviolet, saya akan memiliki untuk mengaktifkannya melalui saya pertempuran Dragonblood-qi. Tetapi jika saya menggunakan Dragonblood pertempuran-qi, kecepatan Bloodviolet akan lebih lambat dari jika saya menggunakan mageforce angin-gaya saya untuk mengaktifkannya." Saat ini, Linley sedang merenungkan Pro dan kontra dari masing-masing.Kemudian, itu benar bahwa Linley telah menggunakan strike tunggal untuk membunuh empat dari mereka.Apa yang dia mengandalkan adalah kecepatan mengagumkan nya, serangan begitu cepat bahwa lawannya tidak mampu menanggapi hal itu!But just relying on speed and the sharpness of his sword would generally only be enough to kill a warrior of the sixth rank, or to heavily wound a warrior of the seventh rank. Only if the warrior of the seventh rank were to act like these four assassins and concentrate all of their battle-qi on their attack, not caring about their lives and sparing nothing for defense, would he be able to kill them.“But the leader didn’t suffer much of an injury.” Linley looked at the leader of the black-robed men.This black-robed man’s power should most likely have exceeded the seventh rank.Using wind-style mageforce on Bloodviolet could make Bloodviolet move faster and make its movements more smooth.

The black knife of the black-robed man arrived almost instantly at Linley’s chest.
