Chapter 633: Chapter 633: Onmyoji

This traffic policeman was none other than Ghost Spirit in disguise.

As the assassin king of Yinghua Country, he had taken countless lives in his lifetime.

Among those he killed were some important ministers from various countries, some business tycoons, as well as martial artists.

In total, no less than tens of thousands.

The most formidable being he had ever attempted to assassinate was a powerhouse of the Earth Realm. Although the assassination had failed, he had managed to escape from his grasp.

As for those a half-step into the Earth Realm, he had killed as many as eighteen of them.

And the number of Sect Masters was too many to count.

This time, he was assigned the task of assassinating a martial artist from Dragon Country named Lin Dong.

The documents provided his exact realm in Martial Way, which was peak level Energy Conversion Master of Dragon Country.

But there was a note in parentheses.

That was, he once killed a Half-Step Earth Realm powerhouse while only being at the mid-stage of an Energy Conversion Master!

Now, with his realm at the peak of Energy Conversion Master, it was speculated that his actual combat power could rival that of Earth Realm Powerhouses.

When he accepted this task, he was dismissive.

He thought that taking down a mere peak Energy Conversion Master martial artist would be as easy as turning his hand.

But when he arrived in Dragon Country and began his assassination attempt, he realized that this man was not so simple.

Using his skills in concealment, he went to track the target.

Yet, yesterday, he was actually detected for a moment; he was even nearly located by his target.

One should know that during his assassination of that Earth Realm Powerhouse from Xiong Country, such a thing had never happened.

After that incident, he knew that this mission was not simple. It might very well be the most difficult one he had dealt with thus far!

With circumstances like these, he had to take a different approach.

Through terrifying intelligence sources, he learned that his assassination target would be attending a Classmate Gathering today.

This road would be his inevitable route.

Therefore, he chose to disguise himself as an ordinary traffic policeman and stopped traffic here.

After disguising as a traffic policeman, he consumed a special medicine that would allow him to completely conceal his martial artist’s Qi for half an hour.

Even Earth Realm Powerhouses wouldn’t be able to detect it.

He was also very confident in his assassination techniques! As long as he could get within a meter of his target, he would be invincible!

If last time, he could have gotten within a meter of that Earth Realm Powerhouse from Xiong Country, then he wouldn’t have failed!

Because within one meter, he could kill those who had recently advanced to Earth Realm.

This time, disguised as a traffic policeman, he managed to get within a meter of his assassination target.

"You’re as good as dead!"

"Not even God Xu Zuo could save you now."

As Ghost Spirit reached to take Lin Dong’s ID card, he felt a surge of elation.

It was that slight emotional fluctuation that enabled Lin Dong to sense his Killing Intent.

"Die!"

Ghost Spirit, confident in his attack, was sure he could take Lin Dong’s life in one blow.

But at that moment—

"Boom!"

In the instant Ghost Spirit made his move, Lin Dong struck first.

He launched a palm strike, and the terrifying force sent Ghost Spirit flying backward.

"Puhhh—"

His body flew dozens of meters in reverse, spitting out fresh blood, his heart filled with shock.

"How is this possible, how did he discover me!"

He had surely taken the medicine to hide his Qi and used his strongest concealment technique, so how could he still be discovered?

Lin Dong was also somewhat surprised.

This Half-Step Earth Realm powerhouse actually survived after taking one of his palm strikes.

But soon, Lin Dong discovered the reason.

It turned out he was wearing a soft armor made from the skin of an eight-headed serpent.

Legend had it that in Yinghua Country, there was a mythical beast comparable to a Flood Dragon, called Orochi, whose strength rivaled that of Earth Realm Powerhouses.

The skin of this serpent was incredibly tough. If crafted into soft armor by a Forging Grandmaster, it could protect martial artists with Grandmaster Strength from a strike from a Half-Step Earth Realm powerhouse, while those a half-step into Earth Realm could withstand a hit from an Earth Realm Powerhouse.

It was that Orochi skin armor that had allowed him to survive just now.

After knocking him back, Lin Dong quickly rushed towards him, ready to follow up with another attack to finish him off!

The Orochi skin armor might have protected him once, but it didn’t mean it could protect him a second time.

However, as Lin Dong charged forward, suddenly his vision was filled with white fog.

And then, Ghost Spirit disappeared from his sight.

He couldn’t lock onto his Qi either.

Lin Dong found himself in the midst of white fog, as if he was in an Illusionary Realm, entirely cut off from the real world.

"Yin-Yang Technique?" Lin Dong muttered to himself, recalling what his master had once told him about a type of martial artist in Yinghua Country called Onmyoji.

These practitioners could use Illusion Techniques to trap others within their illusions.

The duration of someone’s entrapment in such illusions also varied.

A powerful Onmyoji could even keep a Common Person trapped in an illusion for their whole life, never to escape.

Of course, if an Onmyoji faced a powerful martial artist with strong Mental Power, they could only trap them in a short-lived illusion.

That was Lin Dong’s current situation.

His Mental Power was so strong that even someone as formidable as Ghost Spirit could only maintain the illusion for a brief moment.

"This person is terrifying!"

Ghost Spirit didn’t dare delay, and quickly fled.

He knew that his illusion would only work on Lin Dong for a minute or two at most.

If he didn’t escape now, by the time Lin Dong emerged from the illusion, it would be his time to die.
