Chapter 696: Secrets
"Destiny Assassin?" Li Yi frowned, and cold sweat broke out on his body.
An assassin is a remote profession, a killer who walks in the dark, excels at stealth and eruption, is proficient in the art of assassination, and pays attention to killing with one hit, and travels thousands of miles.
Generally speaking, Assassins have the ability to leapfrog the ranks, but they have difficulty understanding the rules, have difficulty in cultivating, and are slow to enter the realm. Tier 10 assassins are quite rare, and as for the Heavenly Rank Assassins, looking at the entire history, they are also very rare.
And once the assassin reaches the Mandate of Heaven, it is like turning into another profession, the fighting spirit erupts like a surge, the blade flows like a criticism, and a dagger can pierce the sky and kill the gods!
The famous assassins of the Mandate of Heaven in history, such as the "Blade of Creed" Jing Ke, the "Bear Hunter" to leave, etc., are all nightmares for the heavenly powerhouse, once they are close, the ghosts and gods are difficult to save!
"There is no killing intent on your knife, so I will spare your life......" Li Yi calmed down and quickly calmed down, "Surrender, you can live." β
"Live?" Ye Yan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but feel absurd, almost suspecting that the young man in front of him was frightened and crazy, "Don't you think that you should beg me to spare your life?"
"Really?" Li Yi snorted coldly, the secret talisman around his body rotated, and there were thousands of stacks of Jinglun under his feet, his figure flickered, and he took a step back.
"Do you want to run? You're still a little tender!"
Ye Yan snorted coldly, stepped forward, and handed the dagger straight forward, like a poisonous snake flying by, stabbing Li Yi's neck.
But in the next moment, its face changed drastically, and its face was full of astonishment.
Li Yi's step seems to be inconspicuous, but when she lands, there are gossip, nine palaces and even ten directions in rotation, the footwork is uncertain, and the body shape seems to be virtual and real, which is unpredictable!
In just one step, the distance between the two has turned from close to the end of the world!
"βAluminous Pupil!"
Night smoke let out a low shout, and in the heavy shadows around the crypt, countless eyeball symbols appeared, like real eyes, with sharp eyes, staring at Li Yi's movements.
"Oh?" Li Yi's emotions moved slightly, "This is also a pupil technique, so powerful!"
Every eyeball symbol has the ability to snoop, and he can even see through the rotation of the fighting qi in his body, the contraction and relaxation of every inch of muscle on his body, and every move is nothing to hide!
Li Yi was secretly frightened.
He has also seen a lot of the law of shadows, such as the shadow control, which is a kind of shadow law. And this lightless pupil may not be as heroic and domineering as the Shadow Commander, but it is strange and unpredictable, and it is impossible to prevent it!
"Boy, you can't run away!"
Yeyan's eyes were cold, his movements were erratic and mysterious, his body suddenly disappeared, and his dagger hit him directly, and he chased after him.
Li Yi stepped back step by step, and the dagger was like an aw of bones, unable to get close, but it was not far away.
"Oh, it's kind of interesting......" Li Yi smiled faintly, like a kite flying and a fish jumping, and the footwork under her feet changed again.
He is ethereal and unpredictable, not only unpredictable, but also changing his style, which is unpredictable.
Li Yi's feet are scattered, sometimes like a giant dragon winding, sometimes like thunder agitated, sometimes like the trajectory of the stars, sometimes there is the charm of the flickering void, the cross star marks are born and destroyed, and the void is flashing!
"What?" Night Smoke's eyes lit up, and his heart trembled secretly, "What kind of pace is this? It's like encompassing a thousand things, and all things are turning! My lightless pupils can hardly guess ......"
It was also a legendary assassin of the Dark Gate during his lifetime, and once he got close, he would never fail to kill the gods!
However, in front of this young man, a few inches of distance seemed like a moat to him, insurmountable.
This young man's footwork is fluctuating and uncertain, his movements are ever-changing, and he clearly integrates the strengths of hundreds of schools, and the avenue is deep and unfathomable!
"I don't believe it!" Night Smoke looked solemn, and he had already exerted all his strength, countless lightless pupils stared at him, and his body was like a fish in water in the dark, pressing forward step by step.
The two of them advanced and retreated, the dagger was like a silver dragon churning, and countless phantoms were born and destroyed, dazzling, and it was even more dangerous!
Gu Yanran's eyes widened, and she couldn't speak for a long time.
"I won!"
Suddenly, the phantom disappeared, and the two figures were re-revealed, and the night smoke dagger stretched straight forward, lying across Li Yi's neck.
"Not necessarily......" Li Yi smiled indifferently and said slowly, "If I were you, I wouldn't be moving." β
Night smoke was startled, and looked down, stiff at the moment.
Around it, lines of light turned back and forth, like an all-pervasive spider web, trapping it layer by layer, unable to move.
"I've lost!" Night Smoke shook his head, his face strongly unwilling, "However, if I had been in my heyday, you would have died a hundred times!"
Li Yi shrugged his shoulders and said lightly: "It's a pity that there is never an if...... Yanran, come on!"
Gu Yanran nodded and stepped forward: "Let go of your soul imprint and surrender to me." Follow me, and I can restore you to your full glory. β
"You?" Ye Yan looked suspicious, glanced at Gu Yanran, and suddenly exclaimed, "You, you are actually a necromancer?"
"Not bad. Gu Yanran nodded.
In order to confirm her statement, she raised a finger, and the shadow of a white bone demon dragon rose and fell on her fingertips, and the aura of the "tyrant" in the suit was scattered, just like the king of the dead, the edict of the nine shades!
Night Smoke's body trembled, as a heavenly undead, it actually felt trembling all over, it was an absolute suppression on the rank!
"Surrender? It was silent for a long time, and a fierce light flashed through its eyes, "But you must help me deal with a long-deserved old lady......"
"Old ladies?" Li Yi was stunned when she heard this, and said curiously, "At your age, there will still be an opponent alive?"
He could see that the night smoke had turned into a ghost, and that he had lived for at least a thousand years.
"Don't worry, she'll be alive!" Nightsmoke sneered and pointed to the top of her head.
"Spider Empress?" Li Yi was not stupid, she immediately came to her senses, and asked again, "Aren't you elves in the Dark Realm all devout disciples of the Spider Empress?"
"I have long turned my back on her!" Yeyan gritted his teeth with hatred on his face, "God and believers should be mutually beneficial, how can there be desperate squeezing and slaughtering? β
"What's going on?" Li Yi asked curiously.
"Here's the thing......" Yeyan calmed down and told the story.
It didn't take long for Li Yi to understand a rough idea.
More than a thousand years ago, in the Battle of July, the Spider Empress defeated the remaining six gods, driving them to the Exiled Lands and turning them into the main gods of the plane.
She immediately announced that she would choose a god to serve under her seat. To this end, she also cast a godhead called - Broken Night.
This "Broken Night" came to the world, which immediately attracted a bloody storm, a series of disasters, and a river of blood!
For the sake of this godhead, the Dark Gate wars continued, and the clans fought each other, and brothers fought against each other, and fathers and sons killed each other from time to time. The rebellion lasted for 100 years, and even today, 1,000 years later, many tribes still have bitter hatred and disputes.
This period of history is known as the "Long Night of Blood".
When the blood-colored night dispersed, the Heavenly Rank powerhouse of the Gate of Darkness was swept away!
Night smoke is one of them.
And after it died, it realized that this riot was fundamentally instigated by the Spider Queen, and that the Broken Night was just a pretense, and it didn't exist at all!
The dead have a grudge in their hearts, and many of the heavenly powerhouses have turned into necromantic creatures, intending to take revenge.
Unexpectedly, this is exactly what he wanted!
The Spider Empress sends messengers, the Tomb Keepers, who are necromancers and soul eaters, to hunt the undead and devour their souls and sacrifice them to the Spider Queen.
Nightsmoke was a Destiny Assassin before his death, and thanks to his powerful concealment ability, he survived and survived to this day.
"This old lady, after defeating the six gods, she still wants to go further!" "Yeyan's face was full of anger, and she looked at the night sky with hatred, "She is ruthless, and she has boiled the entire Heavenly Rank powerhouse of the Dark Gate in one spoonful!" Fortunately, this old lady's qualifications are too poor, and she still failed......"
"Qualification? is not a qualification, but a direction. Li Yi shook her head.
The direction of the Spider Empress was wrong from the beginning, and it was an inevitable result that she went in the opposite direction. The gods are attached to the plane and exist, and if they want to go further, the only way is to conquer outside, that is, the Thousand Domains War!
In the Thousand Domains War, or plundering resources, or plane trade, not only resources are flowing, but plane rules are also exchanging and communicating with each other. This exchange can cause the plane to grow, and the gods will grow with it. Some Abyss Great Lords are even more violent, and will directly drag one plane after another into the abyss to strengthen their own worlds.
The Spider Queen's various practices can be described as abandoning the basics.
While thinking about it, Gu Yanran and Yeyan's soul contract was concluded, and Yeyan bowed down and surrendered, with a solemn expression.
"Yeyan, your ability to seal the title is ......" Li Yi was curious and couldn't help asking.
"My title, the Lightless Killing Machine, has dual abilities, namely the Lightless Pupil and the Darkness Walk. "The night smoke is not hidden.
"Oh?"
"The pupil of no light, as you have seen, can turn darkness into eyes and observe the situation in a wide circle, and the darkness can make me travel through the darkness, from one place to another in an instant, without any obstacles. β
After that, Ye Yan's figure retreated, disappearing in a cave shadow, but almost at the same time, it appeared in Li Yi's shadow.
"Walking through the darkness, just now, you used this method to get close to me?" Li Yi's eyes moved, and she was secretly speechless in her heart.
This darkness is different from the flickering of the void and the unphased shuttle, as long as there is a shadow, it can be thousands of miles away in an instant! Under the darkness, there is no trace, for the assassin, it is really terrifying!
"Not bad!" Nightsmoke nodded, "but I can only walk as far as I can see...... Therefore, it is necessary to leave the Aluminous Pupil as an outpost first. β
As he spoke, a horn sounded overhead, echoing slowly.
"The war has begun!" Li Yi's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, "Yeyan, our opponent is also a member of the Long Night Clan, and he is also of the same clan as you...... Can you fight them?"
"Of course you can!" Yeyan nodded without hesitation, "My one has been dead for thousands of years, so what does it have to do with it?"
