216: Chapter 217 Catching a Blade Barehanded: The Martial Saint's Crazy Choice!

A tiny Rift cracked open in the Void Realm.

Under twenty times the gravity suppression, forcibly tearing open the spatial barrier came at a tremendous cost.

The assassin's internal professional Origin burned crazily, his internal organs were operating under overload, and his bones emitted groaning sounds of being unable to bear the burden.

"The gravity in this damn place is simply outrageous!"

The assassin cursed inwardly, but his hand movements did not hesitate in the slightest.

To maintain his Stealth state, he completely cut off his breathing, relying entirely on his professional Origin to hang onto his last breath.

"Thirty percent of the Li family's assets, along with the treasury key, will all be mine!"

Greed had completely taken over his brain.

He plunged his entire body into that Rift, crossing a distance of several hundred meters.

The target was right before his eyes.

That Blank Slate kid was sitting cross-legged on the black stone platform with his back to him, radiating golden light, his body trembling violently.

"This kid is suffering from a backlash of high-dimensional energy and can't even manage the most basic defense; heaven is truly helping me!"

Lin Qi had indeed reached the most critical moment.

The energy of the true dragon relic blood was rampaging within his body, and the suction force of the Blood Sacrifice Altar kept pulling at him.

The reshaping of the Prototype Golden Body was about to break out of its cocoon and transform.

The dark gold patterns on the surface of his bones had been completely branded into his bone marrow.

The precious light beneath his flesh and skin was undergoing its final Fusion.

"Solidify for me!"

Lin Qi gritted his teeth, using all his martial will to suppress the torrent of energy within his body.

His True Qi struggled to circulate through his damaged Meridians, and his Qi-blood furnace ran at full speed.

As long as he held on for these last ten seconds, his Indestructible Golden Body would be able to enter a brand-new Realm.

His external sensory defense had dropped to its lowest point.

At this very moment.

Less than half a meter behind Lin Qi, the space rippled like water.

The assassin appeared silently.

The legendary dagger in his hand, the fang of the night god, carrying a ghostly green toxic glow, pointed directly at the medulla oblongata at the back of Lin Qi's head.

That was the absolute vital point of the human body.

"Backstab must hit, a hit must maim!"

The System's forced Karma judgment had already taken effect.

An invisible thread of Law bound the tip of the dagger tightly to Lin Qi's vital point.

The surrounding air was completely evacuated, forming an absolute vacuum zone.

Inside the Kyoto underground base.

Li Qingcang stared intensely at the screen, a beast-like roar emitting from his throat.

"Kill him! Kill him for me!"

The Elders in the hall all stood up, craning their necks one by one, waiting to see the scene of Lin Qi's head being severed.

"This legendary weapon comes with its own Karma; even if this kid grew three heads and six arms, he couldn't dodge it!"

"The face the Li family lost can finally be reclaimed today!"

The technical supervisor shouted while staring at the jumping data.

"Patriarch, the assassin's attack has locked onto the target, and the target has made no evasive moves!"

"Good! Open the champagne! Prepare to go to Tianhai City to capture people!" Li Qingcang laughed wildly.

"That fat guy named Zhang Wei, I want to personally slice the fat off his body piece by piece and make him spit out all six hundred and eighty billion!"

"And that Instructor Su Qing, eliminate her as well to prevent future trouble!"

"As for that good-for-nothing Li Shaobai, once I get the assets back, I will definitely break his legs!"

Longya Academy monitoring room.

Instructor Su Qing gripped the table tightly with both hands, her fingernails leaving harsh scratches on the metal panel.

"Dodge! Hurry and dodge!"

She prayed frantically in her heart.

Elder Mo pushed up his reading glasses, all laziness wiped from his face.

"This kid has been locked onto; that is the System's high-level Karma. How can he break it with just his Physical Body?"

The old man stared intently at the screen, his breathing even coming to a halt.

"Is this unprecedented path of martial arts going to end here today?"

The faint sound of the Void Realm Rift opening could not escape Lin Qi's tempered martial intuition.

The hairs on the back of his neck stood on end.

An extremely fatal sense of crisis immediately enveloped his entire body.

Lin Qi's heart shook violently.

"A rat really has snuck up behind me!"

"There's something strange about this dagger; I can't dodge it!"

The Martial Saint's combat experience spun crazily in his mind.

He was currently at the absolute core point of the energy conflict.

If he were to forcibly twist his body to dodge, the true dragon relic blood within him would immediately lose control, and the suction of the Blood Sacrifice Altar would seize the opportunity to grind his internal organs into pulp.

Moreover, that dagger carried some kind of unreasonable locking mechanism.

To dodge was to choose a path to death.

"You want me dead? This broken System of yours isn't qualified enough!"

Lin Qi made a crazy move that made everyone's scalp tingle.

He stopped dodging.

He directly withdrew all suppression of the boiling true dragon relic blood within his body.

The violent ancient energy lost its restraints and exploded directly within his Meridians.

Lin Qi guided this energy, which was enough to burst a normal person, and rushed it all into the Meridians of his right arm.

The muscles of his right arm expanded to their limit in an extremely short time.

The blood vessels under his skin bulged one by one, and his entire arm became a full size larger.

A crimson golden light burst forth from his pores, illuminating the surrounding darkness.

The assassin saw this scene.

"Just the futile rage of someone before death!"

The assassin sneered in his heart, his hand movements speeding up by another thirty percent.

"With the Gene Collapse toxin and Karma, even if you burst your arm, it's useless!"

However, what happened next completely shattered the assassin's worldview.

Lin Qi's right arm, which had expanded to an exaggerated degree, reached directly toward his own back in a twisted angle that completely defied human anatomy.

He started later but arrived first!

When the blade of the fang of the night god was only the last millimeter away from Lin Qi's skin.

Two fingers appeared.

Lin Qi's index and middle fingers, appearing like burning red iron pincers, accurately and unerringly clamped onto the blade of the dagger.

"Clang!"

A piercing sound of metal friction echoed over the Blood Sacrifice Altar.

The dagger stopped.

That forced Karma of the System, the moment it touched Lin Qi's fingers, stalled abruptly.

The hideous grin on the assassin's face froze.

He felt that what he had stabbed was not a person at all, but an immovable ancient divine mountain.

A pure physical force that could not be described by common logic transmitted crazily along the dagger's body.

"How is this possible!"

"How could my Karma judgment fail!"

The assassin roared frantically in his heart, gripping the handle of the dagger tightly with both hands, trying desperately to push the dagger forward.

However, those two fingers did not move a fraction.

No matter how he urged his professional Origin, that legendary weapon, which claimed to be a guaranteed hit, could not advance even half a millimeter.

The System's Law, in the face of pure, monstrous physical strength, let out a groan of being unable to bear the burden.

The feeling of sluggishness grew stronger and stronger.

The material of the dagger began to distort.

The webbing between the assassin's thumb and index finger was torn directly by the recoil force, and blood dripped down his wrist.

The ghostly green toxic glow, under the crushing pressure of the crimson golden light, shattered inch by inch.

The Spiral Force of the Baji Mountain Crushing Force erupted along his fingers, rushing directly into the interior of the dagger, destroying those microscopic structures that represented the System's Law.

Lin Qi maintained the posture of clamping the dagger with two fingers.

He slowly turned his head.

His bloodshot eyes stared fixedly at the assassin behind him.

On that young face, there was no emotional fluctuation, only a coldness as if looking at a dead object.

"I have caught you."
