Chapter 2334: Complete Silence

After the clone entered the Formation, he let Lao Yuanfeng control it, separating the three Martial Cultivators, and he went after them one by one to spar.

Each time he first exhausted the opponent's True Essence, then devoured their Divine Soul Power.

The assassins observing from outside were also extremely nervous.

"This guy has already fought four people in a row! He should be close to exhaustion, right?"

"Send more people, and I won't believe you can't wear him out to death!"

These Martial Cultivators actually knew each other, so they sent two more into the Formation.

The clone this time surprised them even more, taking on two opponents at once.

After a bout, Ye Liuyun was also covered in scars, but ultimately he drained the two opponents' True Essence and eliminated them.

"All together! He definitely can't hold on!"

One of the Martial Cultivators waiting outside shouted, and led the six outside Martial Cultivators to charge in.

And they thought that six people breaking the Formation together was much easier.

The clone merely smiled, immediately drank a drop of Life Spring Water, and his wounds healed instantly.

Then he instantly filled his core pill.

At that moment, Ye Liuyun's main body had just completed the fusion and was about to go out to fight together with the clone; Lei Ming also volunteered to come out to spar.

So the battle became three versus six.

To keep Lei Ming safe, as soon as they struck, Ye Liuyun and the clone first used Divine Soul Power to eliminate a assassin.

The assassins' strength had already slightly surpassed Hei Feng.

So Hei Feng was a bit startled at this point.

But Ye Liuyun, the clone, and the others were unfazed.

Lei Ming dealt with a single assassin, swinging his Thunder God Hammer in a frenzy of smashing, quickly disorienting the foe, and finally turning him to ash with lightning.

Ye Liuyun and the clone each met the enemy with one hand wielding a sword and the other hand palm‑grounded.

After Lei Ming joined, the two found it even easier; the three of them teamed up and swiftly eliminated the remaining Martial Cultivators.

Then Lei Ming retrieved the corpses and took them back to Ye Liuyun's Space World; Ye Liuyun and the clone both returned to the Xuan Kong Shi to break through their realms.

After this intense consumption, Ye Liuyun felt he could no longer suppress his realm.

Hei Feng stared dumbfounded.

She had previously thought Ye Liuyun defeated Old Monster Yue by skill.

She didn't expect Ye Liuyun to be so formidable.

The Side Courtyard outside also fell completely silent.

There were no hidden Martial Cultivators left.

But Ye Liuyun, Zhao Hu and Yu Yao still guarded the doorway, wary of the still‑hidden assassin.

He guessed that even his recent battle couldn't scare that assassin away.

An assassin who fixes on a target rarely gives up easily.

Now it was merely waiting for an opportunity.

Inside the Xuan Kong Shi, Ye Liuyun and the clone pressed the time to break through together.

He hadn't expected that his desperate battle would make his realm uncontrollable.

At that moment, Hei Feng vaguely sensed a sweep of Divine Sense, suddenly becoming alert.

"He's coming!"

The Hei Feng referred to was the assassin the clone had sensed earlier.

Outside the room, Zhao Hu and Yu Yao immediately became alert, but even when they released their Divine Sense, they did not locate the assassin.

Suddenly, a wave of Formation disturbance arrived; the Formation set by Lao Yuanfeng had been broken open.

A Martial Cultivator cloaked entirely in a black robe suddenly appeared in the middle of the courtyard.

Zhao Hu and Yu Yao immediately teamed up to strike that Martial Cultivator.

The Martial Cultivator turned and fled toward the courtyard exit.

"Where are you running!"

Zhao Hu shouted and chased after.

"Don't chase!"

Yu Yao immediately warned Zhao Hu, but Zhao Hu had already left the courtyard.

"Alas!"

Yu Yao leapt onto the courtyard wall, about to call Zhao Hu back, but they saw that Zhao Hu had already shattered the Martial Cultivator.

The reason it was said to be shattered is that the 'Martial Cultivator' under the black robe was merely a Metal Puppet.

It was just that the puppet had been fed a strand of Divine Sense.

"Damn, we've fallen into a trap!"

Yu Yao and Zhao Hu immediately turned back into the courtyard, but the Formation reactivated and trapped them.

It was clear that the one who acted earlier had lured the tiger away, and now used the Formation to trap them to death.

Knowing the Formation's power, they dared not move and despondently waited in place for Ye Liuyun's rescue.

At that moment, a Black Shadow had already appeared before the doorway.

Hei Feng was also a bit nervous, knowing the assassin was no simple foe, and prepared for battle.

The assassin, cloaked entirely in a black robe, slapped the door with one hand.

In the room, Hei Feng, at the instant the door was blasted open, raised a hand and a black True Essence phoenix surged outward.

Hei Feng watched as the Martial Cultivator was hit by her True Essence, but upon closer look realized only the black robe was burning.

And that Martial Cultivator at this moment had already entered the room.

But the Formation inside the room showed no reaction; it is estimated that the assassin understood Formation well, and thus had also broken the room's Formation.

Immediately after, there was a "bang" reverberation.

Illusion Hand struck.

But the moment it hit the assassin, the assassin also countered.

The assassin's reaction was indeed fast, but he struck Illusion Hand's Xuanwu turtle shell, so Illusion Hand took no damage at all.

The assassin also wore a protective garment, so he was unharmed.

But he was now exposed, and Illusion Hand's invisibility technique made it hard for him to pinpoint direction.

Assassins retreat immediately if a single strike fails, especially now that there is a hidden master in the shadows.

So he rushed out of the room at once, trying to leave quickly.

He hadn't expected that as soon as he stepped out, another "bang" rang, and the Magic Vine struck him squarely, pulling him back directly.

"Snap!"

His back was then solidly slapped by Illusion Hand, sending him out of the house.

These two attacks completely disabled his protective armor, and a mouthful of blood spurted out,

"Pfft!"

The assassin flew out of the room again.

He probably hadn't thought that he would be hit back and forth like a rubber ball.

Even so, he still couldn't discern what kind of monster was outside.

The Magic Vine waiting outside again blocked him.

This time, however, it didn't pull him back; instead, it used the Magic Vine to entangle him, wrapping his Primordial Core, then tossed the person to Black Phoenix, awaiting Ye Liuyun's decision.

Then the Magic Vine sank back into the ground, and Illusion Hand fell silent.

Only Black Phoenix remained, staring at the assassin.

Black Phoenix first retrieved his Storage Ring, lest he try any tricks.

With that, both inside and outside the room fell completely silent.

There should be no assassins outside now.

Even if there were assassins, they could see that they could not make a move against Black Phoenix here.

Black Phoenix at this moment was also speculating about the snarling Magic Vine just seen.

She recalled that Ye Liuyun had released a black‑clad youth who dove underground, and wondered how such a thing emerged.

"Could it be that youth's pet?"

She kept guessing in her mind.

She also glanced at the assassin's Storage Ring.

What she didn't expect was that the assassin's insignia differed from theirs; it was the direct‑assassin insignia of Black Kill.
