Chapter 4087 Shadow a.s.sa.s.sins

Yu Qingxuan jumped in shock, not knowing what had just happened. Just as she was about to ask whether Long Chen was seeing things, her expression suddenly changed when she noticed the trees shadow moving on its own.

The trees shadow swayed, and with a rustling sound, a black figure shot up the tree.

When a gust of wind pierced the tree, an abrupt explosion-like noise rang out, drawing the attention of the Huayun Trading Companys people. Following that, the sound of an alarm rang out and multiple grand formations activated.

Long Chen arrived at the bottom of the tree, looking at it. This tree was so large that it would take several people to wrap their arms around its trunk. From its surface, droplets of blood fell steadily.

Long Chen then rubbed the blood between his fingers and sniffed it.

This aura is dark, and the blood is cold. Hmm, the fluctuations are strange Long Chen solemnly examined the blood on his fingers. Even as he spoke, the blood grew lighter and lighter, its red color slowly fading until it was like pure water. In the end, that water also evaporated as if it had never existed.

What kind of lifeform is that?

Yu Qingxuan walked over as well, stunned. She actually hadnt sensed it at all. How frightening.

It should be an a.s.sa.s.sin from the Shadow race.

Mister Long Chen!

At this moment, the guild master also rushed over and examined the scene gravely.

The evil spirit races shadow spirit race? asked Long Chen, his expression changing.

Yes. The Shadow race specializes in a.s.sa.s.sination arts. Their natural talent allows them to freely switch between bodies of shadows and bodies of flesh and blood. Due to this, they can kill people and then vanish without a trace. Fortunately, mister Long Chen could see through their camouflage, or it would have been dangerous.

In terms of actual power, the Shadow race wasnt very strong. But their camouflage and a.s.sa.s.sination arts could not be guarded against. As a result, even Heaven Venerates might be killed by an Immortal King from the Shadow race.

I didnt really manage to see through their camouflage. I sensed it when they tried to get close to me. But then, I couldnt lock down their position. It was when they moved into the shadows that Qingxuans hairpin reflected light and exposed their position, said Long Chen.

At first, Long Chen had only sensed that someone was present but had been unable to tell their exact location. At that time, he was quite shaken, as he knew that he had encountered a master of disguise.

Originally, he had thought that the other side was hidden within the void. But no matter how he tried, he was unable to sense any spatial fluctuations. It was when Yu Qingxuan turned her head that the sunlight reflected off of her hairpin.

That light flashed by the trees shadow, only to mysteriously vanish, so Long Chen almost instinctively attacked.

Long Chens reaction speed was quite fast, but the enemy still managed to escape, not exposing their appearance at all.

We have no enmity with the Shadow race, so why would they target us? asked Yu Qingxuan.

The Soaring Dragon Company must have asked them to. After all, the Shadow race has a close relations.h.i.+p with the Soaring Dragon Company. Some problems that the Soaring Dragon Company finds inconvenient to settle will be handled by the Shadow race. Sometimes, when a power offends the Soaring Dragon Company, their leaders will be a.s.sa.s.sinated by the Shadow race not too long after that. Their relations.h.i.+p is no secret in the Nirvana Overflow Heaven. The Shadow race are a.s.sa.s.sins that the Soaring Dragon Company hires to wipe away any blockades stopping their growth. For now, I will increase the defenses around here. You should stay here for some time, said the guild master.

Long Chen smiled and said, Guild master, you dont need to bother with it too much. I have experience dealing with a.s.sa.s.sins. So, if the Soaring Dragon Company wishes to play, Ill accompany them.

The guild master wanted to convince him, but Long Chen simply brought Yu Qingxuan away into seclusion. Seeing him go into seclusion, the guild master sighed with relief.

He thought that Long Chen had said some tough words for face, but in reality, he was still keeping his distance from the Shadow race.

Long Chen, you dont need to face them directly. Instead, you should take this time to increase your cultivation base, advised Yu Qingxuan. She knew Long Chens temper, so she didnt want him to spend so much energy on dealing with the Shadow race.

Long Chen said, The main thing is that my cultivation path is different from everyone elses. It just so happens that I have nothing else to do at this time, and I was even thinking about how I could deal with them. After all, you can dodge them temporarily but not forever. Ill have to face them sooner or later. Dont worry, I wont do anything Im not confident about. You can focus on your alchemy in peace. Once Ive settled down enough, Ill make some minor adjustments.

Since Long Chen had said this, Yu Qingxuan didnt pester him and entered her own alchemy room.

As for Long Chen, he entered a cultivation room. Once the formation was activated, he asked, Senior, Ive waited a long time. Its about enough, right? If I keep waiting, I feel like Im going to rust.

You really lack patience. Fine, the Dragon Soul Body Forging Arts foundation has been ninety-nine percent complete. If you start merging with the laws of the Nirvana Overflow Heaven at this time, it wont affect the foundation. You can start, said the dragon expert, feeling a bit helpless.ReadNovelFull.com

Based on its plan, Long Chen should keep resting for about a month to see how the Dragon Soul Body Forging Art settled.

It had to be known that Long Chens Dragon Soul Body Forging Art was in its most foundational stage. It was also the most important stage, so there couldnt be the slightest flaw.

As soon as there was a flaw in the foundation, there was no fixing it without tearing the whole thing down, which meant that Long Chens future with the Dragon Soul Body Forging Art would be limited.

Although Long Chens display had surpa.s.sed the dragon experts expectations, in order to be safe, it was best to keep waiting a while longer on the off chance that there were some adjustments that needed to be done.

However, Long Chen was also unable to settle himself without cultivating after all this time. Even his emotions grew a bit unstable. If he were to wait another month while doing nothing, he might go crazy.

In the end, the dragon expert belonged to the dragon race and possessed an unimaginable lifespan. A month? That was nothing to it. But the human races nature was frantic.

Although the dragon expert had never fully experienced what it meant to be human, it did understand Long Chens character. Perhaps if it told Long Chen to keep waiting, he would rebel, so it helplessly agreed.

With the dragon experts approval, Long Chen smiled and began to form hand seals.

The next moment, a seven-colored divine ring appeared. With the support of many formations, Heavenly Dao energy was sucked inside of the divine ring, and the laws of the Nirvana Overflow Heaven flowed into Long Chens body.

Long Chen absorbed it all, not rejecting anything. The spiritual qi of heaven and earth poured into his body. As a result, his sealed cultivation base finally loosened.

Hehe, its time to exercise my fists in the Nirvana Overflow Heaven. Boss Long San is about to rise once more!
