144: Chapter 144: Instant Killing of Takeru
Han Ming did not know that the Li Family had already hired the Thousand Kill Tower to deal with him, and he had once again fallen into Cultivation.
Meanwhile, another storm was brewing at Modu Martial Arts University.
"Have you heard? He Ming from the second year went out on a mission, and he hasn't returned for two days. Moreover, we can no longer contact him."
"Yeah, I heard this is already the fifteenth person this week. This damn Blood Demon Alliance, aren't they being too rampant?"
"I heard it's not just our school; quite a few people have also gone missing in Modu Base City. The school's instructors and the people from the Inspection Department have already started investigating."
Many students at Modu Martial Arts University were discussing this in hushed tones.
Many people began to panic and dared not go out to train alone.
"Not bad, Peak One-Star Martial General."
At this moment, in a cave in the Black Wind Mountain Range, Li Tianci had already returned to his human form. Feeling the surging power within his body, he revealed a satisfied smile.
In this one week, he had been hunting wildly in the vicinity. The number of Geniuses he had refined using the Blood Demon Art was no less than twenty, and his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds.
He had already achieved a Breakthrough to the Peak of a One-Star Martial General.
"Now that I have alarmed the school and the Inspection Department, it is time to return."
He stood up, and his figure flashed, instantly disappearing from the cave.
A few more days passed.
During these few days, Han Ming also began to focus on his Cultivation. He was not Cultivating the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture, but was instead comprehending the Void Evasion Art.
The countless expositions and understandings of space within it left him intoxicated. Combined with his Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability, his grasp of the Space Concept was also rising rapidly.
"Hum!"
At one moment, Han Ming, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in contemplation, suddenly shuddered, and an invisible fluctuation radiated from his body.
The space inside the cultivation room was like the surface of water, rippling with layer upon layer of waves.
The wall plaster in the cultivation room was swept by these ripples and instantly annihilated into dust.
If it weren't for the defenses that lit up instantly, the entire cultivation room would have been annihilated by this wave of vibration.
"Space True Intent Perfection."
Han Ming slowly opened his eyes, a flash of surprise appearing in them.
The Space Divine Body combined with his own Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability was simply too powerful.
In just a few short days, he had comprehended the Space True Intent to the tenth-level Perfection.
Moreover, he discovered that the tenth-level Perfection of Space True Intent was actually even more powerful than the first-level Profound Truths of ice and water.
No wonder Principal Qi, who was at the Peak Martial Saint, could contend with Martial God powerhouses.
Now, even without using the power of Profound Truths, with just the Space True Intent at Perfection, he was confident that he could kill the Demon Venerate Heiming from before.
"It is also time to go out and test my strength."
Han Ming stood up, transformed into the appearance of Han Chunming, and left Modu Martial Arts University.
On the other side, the intelligence personnel of the Thousand Kill Tower had also been searching for Han Chunming's whereabouts these past few days.
However, to their surprise, they could not find him; it was as if Han Chunming had vanished into thin air.
There were no traces at all. They even arranged for people to enter the Magic City Han Family, but they also returned empty-handed.
As soon as Han Ming's figure appeared in Modu Base City, he was noticed by the people from the Thousand Kill Tower; in fact, it wasn't just the Thousand Kill Tower that noticed his appearance.
Han Ming's body rose into the sky and flew out of Modu Base City.
"Quick, send the information back. Han Chunming has appeared; he has already left Modu Base City."
People from many factions reported Han Ming's movements back one after another.
Han Ming did not know that he had been targeted as soon as he appeared. After leaving Modu Base City, he did not stop near the Black Wind Mountain Range and flew directly towards the direction of Ten Thousand Demon Ridge.
Although the Black Wind Mountain Range was not small, the exotic beasts here were cleared out every year by people sent by the high-level officials of Modu Base City, so there were simply no powerful exotic beasts.
The highest were only Tier 8 King Beasts, which were simply not worth looking at for him; they were only suitable for those with low strength to train.
"Hmm? Is this someone tracking me?"
Han Ming, who was flying at high speed, suddenly frowned.
After leaving Modu Base City, he had sensed a few people behind him, but at first, he didn't pay it any mind.
After all, there were many people going in and out every day to train or handle business, so it was normal to occasionally run into a few.
But he had clearly changed his direction several times, and these people were still following far behind him. Even if he were stupid, he would know something was wrong.
Although he only had the strength of a Four-Star Martial Emperor, his Divine Sense range was comparable to that of a Martial Venerable. They probably didn't expect that his Divine Sense could discover them.
"Hmph, I would like to see who you are."
Han Ming sneered coldly in his heart.
A few Peak Martial Emperors, that was all. He did not take them seriously.
Han Ming continued to fly towards Ten Thousand Demon Ridge without changing his expression.
However, more than an hour passed, and those people behind him had no movement.
"Could it be that I was overthinking?"
Han Ming frowned slightly again, feeling a wave of doubt in his heart.
Just as he was about to ignore them and use space travel to hurry on his way, he suddenly felt a fluctuation in space.
Two figures were already blocking his path in front of him.
Both of them were dressed in cyan mysterious robes, with half-silver masks on their faces, revealing only their chins and a pair of eyes that were cold to the extreme.
"Thousand Kill Tower? Silver-Faced Killer!"
After seeing the attire of the two, Han Ming's pupils shrank suddenly, and he blurted out.
His expression also began to become serious.
As a book transmigrator, he knew this attire all too well.
It was the Silver-Faced Killer of the Thousand Kill Tower, the largest assassin organization in the Great Xia Alliance. To become a Silver-Faced Killer, one must at least have the strength of a Martial Venerable.
Now, to kill him, a Four-Star Martial Emperor, they had actually dispatched two of them. The Li Family really had a big hand.
Han Ming sighed in his heart.
There was no need to think about it. The identity of Han Chunming had only just appeared. Aside from the Blood Demon Alliance, it could only be the Li Family that wanted him dead so badly.
And the ones who would hire assassins definitely wouldn't be the Blood Demon Alliance, so it could only be the Li Family.
"Oh? You know the Thousand Kill Tower? That's perfect. Don't blame us when you die; the money others paid is simply too much."
The taller and thinner assassin among them said in surprise.
After speaking, he didn't give Han Ming a chance to speak. His aura suddenly shook, and with a wave of his hand, several silver-white blade lights tore through space, heading straight for Han Ming's vital points.
The other person attacked at the same time, his fist force like a mountain, blocking all of Han Ming's retreat paths.
The two of them were actually both at the strength of a Two-Star Martial Venerable. They knew that Han Chunming had comprehended multiple True Intents and Profound Truths, so they did not use Domain suppression.
They used their strongest killing moves right from the start.
"You really think highly of me."
The corners of Han Ming's mouth tilted up slightly. It was just the right time to test his Space True Intent at Perfection.
He took a step out, and his body instantly merged into the Void Realm and disappeared.
"Boom!"
The blade lights and fist force exploded at the location where Han Ming had just been. Space produced waves of ripples, and a hundred-meter hill below was instantly razed to the ground.
"How is this possible? Where is he?"
Looking at Han Ming's instantly vanished figure, the two assassins were stunned and called out in confusion.
He was clearly standing here just a moment ago, and their attacks had already blocked all retreat paths. Where could he have run to?
Just as the two were stunned, Han Ming's figure instantly appeared behind one of them.
A long spear condensed from the Profound Truth of Ice in his hand quickly stabbed towards his heart from behind.
"Careful..."
The assassin opposite saw the suddenly appearing Han Ming, his expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly warned.
The assassin locked onto by Han Ming's Ice Profound Truth had his hair stand on end instantly, and an aura of death enveloped him.
"How bold..."
He roared angrily. There was no time to turn around, and an earth-yellow barrier instantly formed behind him.
It was the defense formed by the Earth Profound Truth. With his two-level Earth Profound Truth, an ordinary Three-Star Martial Venerable could not break it in one strike.
Therefore, he was very confident; a mere Martial Emperor could not break his defense at all.
But the moment he turned his head, he saw a scene he would never forget for the rest of his life.
With a "puff" sound, the long spear of Ice Profound Truth in Han Ming's hand actually ignored his Earth Profound Truth defense and directly pierced through his heart.
"Ho... how is this possible?"
He looked blankly at the long spear piercing his chest, revealing an expression of disbelief.
His heart was full of confusion. How did he do it?
He could actually ignore his defense?
Feeling the rapidly fading vitality in his body, he knew that all of this was real.
He, a dignified Silver-Faced Killer of the Thousand Kill Tower, actually died at the hands of a Martial Emperor.
Han Ming didn't care what he was thinking, and the long spear shook violently.
With a "boom", this Martial Venerable-level assassin instantly exploded into a mist of blood.
