"Ha Ha, Feng Yun good, good, you didn't let me down." Mu Dong said while patting the shoulder of Feng Yun as they were returning to the inn.
Feng Yun once again went to the inn of Xia Lifen, but as Feng Yun come to the empty alley to enter the black pagoda, he suddenly felt killing intent from his behind.
I don't know when a black clothes person wearing the bronze mask arrived behind Feng Yun, there was a dagger in his hands that was moving towards Feng Yun's neck with fast speed.
Clang!
Before the dagger of the masked man could reach Feng Yun's neck, it was blocked. Feng Yun timely reacted and blocked the dagger of the masked man. But before Feng Yun could take a proper look at the assassin, a few more killings appeared instantly.
A few more black-clothed assassins appeared around Feng Yun, and all of them attacked Feng Yun together, blocking all the escape routes of Feng Yun.
"What the fuck?" Feng Yun was stunned slightly after seeing these people in black clothes. Feng Yun sensed that some people were following him from the shadows, he thought they were people of True Fire Palace because these people didn't release any killing intent towards him before.
They didn't seem to be ordinary cultivators, they could hide their killing intent very well, only released when they were attacking the target, it was obvious that they were trained assassins.
His divine sense spread in his surround, reading all the moves of the assassin, although these assassins were good, Feng Yun was not a normal young man either. After calculating the attacking route, Feng Yun used shadow steps while defended himself with the heavenly slayer sword.
Blood spattered as a few bounds appeared on Feng Yun, but he was able to defend all the attacks that could give him critical damage.
Seeing the attack was missed, the assassins didn't try a second time, they hastily retreated.
"Fuck, do you think you leave after sneaking up on me?" Feng Yun cursed, one after another sword qi flew out from his sword attacking the assassins.
puff! puff! puff!
Three assassins directly killed by Feng Yun's sword qi while two were heavily injured, but the rest were able to retreat safely, their speed was really fast, in just a blink of an eye, they vanished into the night, each of them escapes into the different directions.
Feng Yun thought for a moment and decided not to pursue the assassins, it could another trap. He comes to the injured assassin but found out that the person committed suicide, the second one as well.
"What a weird peoples!" Feng Yun was surprised by their actions. Leaving with no choice, Feng Yun returned to the inn, and come to the room of Elder Li to ask about this group of people first.
"Feng Yun, what happened? How come you get injured." Elder Li's face changed and asked suddenly.
"It's nothing, only minor bruises." After that, Feng Yun explained the whole incident to Elder Li.
"You mean, you were attacked by some peoples who were wearing bronze masks." Elder Li asked seriously.
Feng Yun nodded and showed the bronze metal masks that he picked up from the assassins, seeing the plain bronze metal mask in Feng Yun's hand, Elder Li's expression turned solemn and said, "Sure, it was them, the phantom assassins."
"Phantom assassins is an underground organization of assassins that was spread in the entire eastern sky martial continent, it is one of the biggest dark organizations of the eastern sky martial continent. It is specialized in killing people for money, once it accepted the mission, it will finish it. Once you are marked by this organization, your life ended on this point. It is said, if you can give good money, even the Sovereign Profound Realm expert could be assassinated."
"There assassins of this organization decided by their cultivation ranks, each rank has its own unique colored mask as a sign, bronze colored masks for earth profound realm, silver colored masks for sky profound realm, gold colored masks for heaven profound realm assassins and finally purple colored masks for Sovereign Profound Realm assassins."
"Nobody knew who established this organization or who is the leader. Many clans trying to destroy this organization but failed, they couldn't even find the whereabouts of its headquarter. Furthermore, those clans met the strong retaliation from this organization caused deaths of many descendants of those clans. There were not too many killers in this group, but every assassin is heavily trained from childhood. Each assassin has mastered the technique of sneak attack and hiding in the shadows."
Feng Yun was surprised by the background of this group, he didn't know that his life would be marked by such a terrific organization. Feng Yun understands that whoever puts a bounty on his head in the phantom assassin guild, must have huge wealth and strong background.
Feng Yun tried to think, who would be the person who put a bounty on his head in the phantom assassins group.
"Feng Yun, you should be more careful in the future, it's better to stay in the sect because not many people were able to escape from phantom assassins." Elder Li solemnly warned Feng Yun.
"Disciple understood." Feng Yun nodded politely but in his mind, he was thinking of ways to get rid of the pursuit of this notorious group of people. Although Feng Yun has a black pagoda to hide in the critical times, he didn't like this feeling of being sneak attacked by the phantom assassins from time to time.
After returning to his room, Feng Yun thought for a moment and finally took out the extreme sunflower seeds.
"Let's raise the strength first." Saying this, Feng Yun sat down crossed-legged on the bed and started absorbing the fire qi from the extreme sunflower seed, rich and pure fire essence entered his body bashing his body from inside.
Feng Yun could feel the temperature of his body was rising very fast, the blood inside his body was almost boiling, as Feng Yun was thinking how to handle the heat, the fire qi of extreme sunflower seed was started absorbing by the demonic flame.
After absorbing the fire qi from the first seed completely, his demonic become stronger a little, his cultivation also increased a little.
Without stopping, Feng Yun started absorbing the fire qi from the second seed, then third, fourth and fifth.
Bang!
After absorbing the firth seeds, Feng Yun's cultivation also risen by a small realm, breaking through the mid-earth profound realm, his strength increased greatly as well.
Most significant thing was that his demonic flame upgraded, as Feng Yun unfolded his palm a dark golden color appeared on his palm, his demonic flame turned into the Dark Golden color from the golden color of the past.
But Feng Yun didn't relax on his point, he directly entered the black pagoda and came to the fifth floor of the black pagoda, he remembers that he still hadn't cleared the trial room of the firth floor after becoming the earth profound realm.
As Feng Yun entered the trial room of fifth, five spirit beasts materialized in the room. There were five two-headed golden lions, two-headed golden lions contain thin bloodline dragons, they were stronger than ordinary spirit beasts.
'Roar!"
The five lions roared heavily and plunged towards Feng Yun.
"Fourth sword form!" "Nirvana Fire Wheal!"
Feng Yun didn't hesitate to use his top martial skill from the start, as his demonic flame upgraded, the power of nirvana flame wheal also increased greatly as well, it becomes even more destructive from before.
