Chapter 1517: Assassination Failed

"To dare stand before my palms... If you seek death, then I shall grant your wish!" Ba Yuan roared."Boom!"The seals formed with both palms condensed and then exploded with a boundless aura!This surgin...In the gaze of insight, the silhouette of that grayish figure was particularly prominent, hovering directly above Fang Yu.

Upon hearing Fang Yu's words, the gray shadow that had originally been about to move stopped.

It looked at Fang Yu's location, as if hesitating about something.

“Come out of hiding, Great Celestial Master,” Fang Yu said with a smile.

As soon as these words were spoken, Huíyǐng's body shuddered slightly.

Then, its form began to emerge.

This is a... bat

At least from its appearance, this so-called celestial master was just a rather large bat, about a meter long.

But it differs from ordinary bats in that its back wings are covered with numerous fang-like spikes, and upon these spikes grow tiny black dots densely packed.

Through the Eye of Insight, when we zoom in, we see that these little black dots... seem to be all eyes!

Just like a fly's compound eye, but it grows in a rather unique location.

As for the head, it is very similar to that of a real bat. Although its mouth is tightly closed, two gray-white fangs protrude from the upper jaw.

Its eyeballs were both pitch black, emanating a bone-chilling aura, utterly terrifying.

This bat-like creature gives one a feeling of unease the moment it appears.

Although it hadn't moved a muscle or made any overt gestures.

But that feeling of discomfort, though it's quite subtle, is very real and comes from your body's natural response.

"So you're a bat after all," Fang Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "A sea bat"

"Your Highness... I'm curious, how did you find me" The Great Celestial Master also stared at Fang Yu, his dark eyes showing no emotion.

But the moment it opened its mouth to speak, a cloud of ash began to emanate from its body.

The aroma immediately permeated the surrounding area.

The surrounding scene suddenly became blurry.

"How did I find you" Fang Yu raised an eyebrow.

Clearly, under the guise of Xuan Ran's Qi, Da Chong Tian Shi was unable to see the glint of his perceptive eyes.

"If you had waited an hour for me to enter here, I wouldn't have been able to discover you. But the moment I stepped into the space tunnel, you followed right behind me. Do you really think I'm a fool" Fang Yu said.

The Grand Marshal's wings surged forward in a powerful embrace, his entire body suddenly flipping upside down. His eyes remained locked on Fang Yu.

"I truly didn't expect, Your Highness, to possess such a keen sense of perception." Grand Celestial Master's tone was icy cold, with a palpable killing intent that was utterly unhidden.

"Master Celestial, assassinating me, a prince, directly seems rather out of line, wouldn't you say" Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and said.

"Since you've entered this ancient city, your death... is naturally a matter of course." The Grand Taoist said slowly.

“I just don’t understand. I worked hard and risked my life to get the holy fruit for the Shenhai Dynasty, why do you have to kill me” Fang Yu asked.

"Prince Rongdao, the Emperor and Empress had a special request for you yesterday... Could it be that you truly haven't noticed anything" The Grand Celestial Master's voice grew colder.

"You really dare to mention the Emperor and Empress, it seems you've truly made up your mind and are extremely confident in killing me," Fang Yu smiled.

"Prince Rongdao, if you blame anyone...blame your own ostentatious behavior. The Emperor and Empress noticed you, didn't they" The Great Celestial Master said, his wings suddenly spreading wide. "Originally, you could have lived a while longer...but you had to go and discover my existence."

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

As he spoke, the numerous spikes growing on the pitch-black wings of the great Da Chong Heavenly Master shot out all at once!

But when these spikes charged towards Fang Yu, each one's trajectory was different!

The tiny eyes growing on the thorns glinted with a strange light.

"Whoosh!"

A strange surge of magical energy was released, enveloping Fang Yu's body within it.

The surrounding scenery became more blurred.

And yet, the multitude of spikes rushing towards Fang Yu came from all angles, each one extremely sinister, aiming straight for his vital points.

"Are all these eyes on the spikes meant to find weaknesses That seems like overkill, doesn't it" Fang Yu narrowed his eyes and released his true energy.

"Boom!"

A loud bang echoed as a surge of true energy erupted within Fang Yu's body.

However, this surge of energy was unable to deflect the rapidly incoming spikes.

Their surface eyes shimmered, drawing in the surging qi.

And they only needed to absorb a tiny opening, enough to pierce through true qi and strike Fang Yu's flesh.

"Mmm..."

These qi strikes landed on the surface of Fang Yu's body.

However, they encountered another layer of protection.

A faint wisp of shadow appeared on Fang Yu's skin, shimmering with light.

The spikes shattered, and the numerous eyeballs attached to them burst, releasing a cloud of black smoke.

This scene gave the Grand Celestial Master above a jolt.

"Whoosh!"

But at that moment, a sudden noise startled them.

The Great Heavenly Master became alert, instinctively folding his wings to protect himself.

At the same time, it can see what's happening outside through the eyes that grow on its wings.

"That level of strength is indeed enough to kill a prince, but unfortunately…" Fang Yu appeared behind Dachuang Tianshi, speaking with a cold smile.

"Whew!"

The Great Heavenly Master's wings suddenly released a massive amount of toxic black gas.

This poison has life force and can penetrate the pores of any creature's skin.

"Zila..."

However, as these toxic gases neared Fang Yu's golden protective barrier, they let out a sound of being incinerated, proving utterly ineffective.

And Fang Yu had already reached out with both hands, grabbing the ends of the Great Heavenly Master's wing bones and pulled with all his might.

"Ah..."

The great celestial master let out a scream, unable to resist Fang Yu's immense strength.

The joined wings were ripped apart so cruelly!

The main body of Grandmaster Dashing Heaven was just exposed before Fang Yu!

"How could he possibly have such immense strength!" Dachuantian shivered in shock!

As for Prince Rongdao's strength, he had a psychological estimate... at most similar to the previous Guangchen prince or Cangrong prince, probably slightly weaker.

Therefore, it has a 100% certainty for the assassination of Prince Rongdao.

It has no Soul Jade, nor particularly powerful mana.

But it possesses incredibly powerful hunting skills, capable of targeting all living beings.

In his calculations, the prince Rong Dao should have been dead the moment those poison needles were released!

Unexpectedly, these poisoned needles failed to harm Prince Rongdao and were instead destroyed.

But right now, the power displayed by Prince Rongdao has terrified it!

How is that even possible!

At this moment, the Grand Celestial Master Da Chong discovered that even the Soul Jade on Prince Rong Dao's forehead wasn't glowing!

This indicates… he hasn't used the power of the Soul Jade yet!

How is this possible...

Why has the once unknown Rong Dao suddenly become so powerful!

"To be honest, both you and that Empress are not very bright," Fang Yu said with a sarcastic smile. "Someone suddenly becomes stronger, why wouldn't you want to investigate"

Let me know if you have more text you'd like translated!ng Yu and I are companions, a very high risk."Hearing this, Qiu Wankun had already sat up straight.He just wanted to hear the reasons Zhixi gave!He needed to know what motivated Zixi to make this choi...
