However, the masked assassin still gave no response.

He unleashed sword qi toward Duan Gujin while also firing hidden weapons at him.

Duan Gujin took a deep breath, his body transforming into a streak of flowing light, rapidly dodging the masked assassin's sword qi and hidden weapons.

At the same time, he picked up some of the arrows and hidden weapons that the masked assassin had sent out.

His eyes widened as he locked onto the masked assassin ahead.

With a wave of his right hand, an Extreme Thunder Dragon appeared there.

The Extreme Thunder Dragon quickly grew in size within a short period of time, and once it became as thick as his arm, he sent the Extreme Thunder Dragon charging at the masked assassin.

Moreover, after releasing the Extreme Thunder Dragon, he rapidly cast five Thunder Balls from his right hand.

Five breaths later, the five Thunder Balls exploded into a stunning breaking sound, rapidly pouncing toward the masked assassin.

The masked assassin, seeing the other party launch an attack, had his eyes flicker.

After a moment, he decided he should dodge the other party's Thunder Dragon and Thunder Balls, rather than clashing head-on with his opponent's skills.

He withdrew his skills and, with a flash, rapidly dodged to the side.

Just as he dodged, he heard a series of urgent breaking sounds from the front.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Moments later, he saw three white lights appear in front of him.

His complexion changed drastically, and he rapidly dodged to the side to avoid the three long arrows that Duan Gujinzhao had shot at him.

Seeing the other party dodging his attacks at full speed, Duan Gujin took a deep breath, knowing that the time to counterattack had come.

Offense is the best defense!

Besides, he was not carrying any Dark Weapons that belonged to him or any Spiritual Medicine to recover his Primordial Power; he could only eliminate the masked assassin as quickly as possible.

What was most important was that, from the previous dodging movements of the masked assassin, he judged that the assassin's cultivation was not high, at most at the Eighth Level of Martial Emperor.

Seeing the distance between them closing and the opponent's offensive growing fiercely, the masked assassin immediately guessed the other party's intent.

A masked assassin undergoes specialized training; it knew that in this situation, what one should do next was to rapidly flee far away, not to clash directly with the other party.

Thus, the masked assassin ran madly to the left at high speed, avoiding Duan Gujin's attack.

Seeing the opponent in full flight, Duan Gujin felt no surprise but instead grew worried.

He knew that if the masked assassin could infiltrate the Heaven Seizing Exam of the Heavenly Immortal Sect and even carry Dark Weapons to kill him, it indicated that someone from the higher echelons of the Heavenly Immortal Sect must be backing the assassin.

Once he later entered the Heavenly Immortal Sect, he had no idea what means those who wanted to kill him in the sect's hierarchy would use.

Duan Gujin took a deep breath; his body darted toward the masked assassin like lightning.

His right hand rapidly conjured two Thunder Dragons, shooting them fiercely toward the back of the masked assassin.

The two Thunder Dragons emitted an urgent breaking sound, instantly making the fleeing masked assassin become alert.

Cold light shone in the eyes of the masked assassin, who initially intended to escape but didn't expect the enemy behind to relentlessly give chase.

Moreover, he realized that the enemy behind him, in both strength and running speed, was far superior.

If he stayed to entangle with the enemy, a prolonged battle would undoubtedly lead to his defeat.

But if he chose to run away, he would eventually be caught up by his pursuer.

Since he would be caught anyway, he might as well confront the enemy directly a few times—to fight fiercely to secure himself some more time to escape. Then he would choose Rapid Escape.

He didn't have much understanding of Duan Gujin's true strength to begin with. It was only through their earlier confrontation that he realized Duan Gujin was actually at the First Level of Martial Saint—he was an entire Great Realm below his opponent.

For him, being an entire Great Realm weaker meant there was no possibility of victory.

Since there was no chance of victory, he decided not to take the risk.

The Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul on his body instantly took shape, and his aura became significantly stronger in an instant.

He no longer chose to flee, but decided to fight Duan Gujin in a few hard rounds.

He aimed to use these few rounds to make Duan Gujin give up on the idea of pursuing him, so he could make his escape.

This was his strategy!

Seeing the opponent not only didn't speed up to escape, but instead charged towards him, Duan Gujin was overjoyed.

In his previous life, he had fought with many Assassins and Demon Cultivators, so he knew why the other party wanted to turn back and fight.

He took a deep breath, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

He knew he must deal a fatal blow to the masked Assassin in front of him—if possible, to inflict a serious injury and prevent the escape.

This time, he channeled his Primordial Power into his right hand, his body transformed into a beam of light, and he pounced towards the masked Assassin at Rapid speed.

His movement was extremely fast, and he continued to fire Thunder Ball after Thunder Ball at the Assassin.

The masked Assassin, seeing the Thunder Balls being shot towards him, rapidly dodged to the side to avoid them.

The distance between their bodies kept decreasing. The masked Assassin kept dodging Duan Gujin's Thunder Balls, but the Sword Qi and Hidden Weapons he shot out were directly shattered by Duan Gujin's Thunder Balls.

Seeing this, the masked Assassin instantly realized that his previous thoughts were completely wrong.

It hesitated for a moment, then thought about Rapid Escape.

He knew that his Skills were completely useless here; both Hidden Weapons and Sword Qi were completely sealed off by the opponent.

And he had no way to counterattack against Duan Gujin's Thunder Ball assault.

He was inadvertently hit by a Thunder Ball and instantly felt his entire body go numb; he even lost control over his Body for a short time.

Fortunately, at that time, he was still far from Duan Gujin, and thus he was not continuously bombarded.

The Extreme Thunder Ball might not be particularly powerful, but its greatest feature is its speed, and Duan Gujin could release many Extreme Thunder Balls in a very short time.

Despite the masked Assassin having a Longsword and Hidden Weapons, once the Longsword and Hidden Weapons came into contact with a Thunder Ball, they would be shattered by the explosion.

Once the masked Assassin realized that it was impossible to get close to Duan Gujin's Body, it immediately changed its mind and decided to flee from the scene at high speed.

However, when one of Duan Gujin's Thunder Balls hit the body of the Assassin, his body started to go numb, completely unable to move.

"Not good!"

The masked Assassin's heart began to beat violently, overcome with immense fear. As an Assassin, it fully understood that being unable to move for Five Breaths allowed the opponent to easily inflict serious damage.

As its body began to recover a little, it thought about continuing to make a Rapid Escape.

However, it immediately heard the urgent sound of breaking air coming from behind.

The sound was incredibly fast, and deafeningly loud.

Within three breaths' time, the masked Assassin felt a sharp pain in his right leg and heard a muffled crack.
