Danger!
Seeing Jiang Wuming lunging at him again, Jack suddenly awoke, feeling a great crisis.
As the crisis loomed, Jack forcefully stabilized the churning qi and blood within his body. With a flash, he darted to the side.
Through their previous exchange, he discovered that Jiang Wuming's combat strength was far more terrifying than he had imagined. He could actually break through his true qi defense and injure him through direct confrontation!
Moreover, Nisen had been repelled by Jiang Wuming earlier and had not yet arrived.
In such a situation, Jack knew very well that he alone could not withstand Jiang Wuming. If he rashly engaged, he risked being severely injured or even killed by Jiang Wuming!
He intended to temporarily evade Jiang Wuming's sharp offense and wait for Nisen to arrive before joining forces to deal with Jiang Wuming.
However—
The moment Jack flickered his body, Jiang Wuming had already appeared three meters in front of him. White light flashed in his eyes, and a powerful mental force surged out, instantly engulfing Jack and blasting into his brain!
Mental attack!
Jiang Wuming knew Jack's intentions and understood this was the best opportunity to kill Jack. Thus, he held nothing back, directly employing his mental force to attack Jack's brain!
In an instant, Jack felt as though Jiang Wuming had appeared in his mental world, punching towards him. His mental world felt as though it was about to explode, his head throbbed with pain, his expression was dazed and pained, and his speed consequently slowed.
Boom!
Seizing the opportunity, Jiang Wuming lunged to Jack's front. The internal organs and bones within his body resonated again, like a thunderclap. His secret power and true qi combined, surging to his right fist, covering the entire right fist, which shimmered with light, like streaks of lightning.
Thunderous Shock, Electric Embrace!
With this punch, Jiang Wuming still utilized the "Thunderous Treasure Arts," but he did not use its most powerful fifth form, "Thunderous Strike." Instead, he used the third form, "Thunderous Shock, Electric Embrace."
Jack suddenly awoke and, relying on his combat instincts, subconsciously swung his left hand, transforming it into a palm to strike Jiang Wuming's fist while simultaneously dodging to the side.
He wanted to change the direction of Jiang Wuming's attack while evading!
However—
When he had previously clashed head-on with Jiang Wuming, he had sustained internal injuries. His meridians were somewhat torn, and his true qi circulation was restricted. Coupled with the recent mental attack, his control over true qi was far inferior to before. How could a casual palm strike at this moment possibly block Jiang Wuming's iron fist?
"Crack!"
In a flash of lightning, fist and palm collided, emitting a muffled sound.
Jack's left palm was instantly sent flying, his hand bones broken, and blood flowed profusely.
Jiang Wuming's punch, however, did not diminish. It ferociously smashed into Jack's left shoulder.
In an instant, the white true qi, which flickered like lightning, exploded. The terrifying energy instantly breached Jack's true qi defense.
"Crack!"
With a crisp sound, Jack's shoulder blade shattered, his left shoulder exploded with flesh and blood flying, and he simultaneously lost his balance, tumbling backward.
Swish!
At this moment, Jiang Wuming released his right fist, changing it from a fist to a grasp. He grabbed Jack's chest clothing and yanked forcefully. Simultaneously, with a slight flick of his foot, he stepped forward, and like dancing a ballroom dance with Jack, they exchanged positions.
Whoosh!
At the same time, a sharp whistling sound cut through the air.
A mass of black mist appeared behind the position Jiang Wuming had just occupied. The sharp dagger, like a streak of black light, pierced through the air's resistance, pierced the afterimage Jiang Wuming had left, and then struck Jack, who had exchanged positions with Jiang Wuming.
Nisen!
He attacked from behind again, thrusting a blade!
And as Jiang Wuming struck Jack with his fist, he sensed Nisen's attack from behind. He then used Jack as a shield to block Nisen's vicious stab!
"Puff—"
The sharp dagger completely pierced Jack's lungs. Hot blood splattered, spraying all over Nisen's face.
"Argh—"
Jack let out a pained cry. The intense pain caused the muscles of his face to contort completely, and his eyes were filled with horror.
He never dreamed that he would ultimately die by Nisen's hand!
However, Nisen was completely unfazed. He abruptly released the dagger, then transformed his hand into a palm and struck the hilt of the dagger.
At this moment, Nisen displayed the cold ruthlessness of an assassin to its fullest extent.
After stabbing Jack, he felt no guilt or self-reproach, not even an emotional fluctuation. Instead, he used Jack's body as cover to launch a fatal blow!
In an instant, the dagger accelerated sharply, piercing directly through Jack's body and shooting towards Jiang Wuming!
This strike was somewhat beyond Jiang Wuming's expectation, and the distance was extremely close, posing extreme danger. However, he still relied on his powerful combat instincts to dodge to the side.
After the dagger penetrated Jack's body, it whizzed past Jiang Wuming's abdomen, almost grazing him.
At this moment, Jiang Wuming could even feel the chilling cold of the dagger!
If he had reacted even a fraction of a second slower, he would have been pierced through the abdomen by the dagger!
Whoosh!
Just as Jiang Wuming narrowly evaded the blood-stained dagger, Nisen lunged forward, transforming his hand into a blade and slashing towards Jiang Wuming's head.
As a top assassin of the tenth stage of a two-star War God, Nisen had an excellent grasp of combat opportunities and situational control. After gaining the upper hand, he gave Jiang Wuming no chance, wanting to kill Jiang Wuming in one go!
With this strike, although Nisen used his hand as a blade, black true qi gathered on his right hand, forming a blade energy. The blade energy emanated terrifying energy fluctuations, its power no less than that of a real blade!
Jiang Wuming, having just dodged the dagger, had no time to evade now. He could only pull Jack's body in front of him again, using Jack as a shield once more!
"Bang!"
A muffled sound echoed as Nisen's palm strike landed on Jack's back.
"Crack!"
"Puff—"
Jack's back exploded, flesh and blood flying, and he died tragically on the spot!
Simultaneously, Jiang Wuming suddenly pushed Jack's corpse forward, slamming it towards Nisen.
Swish!
Nisen's feet flickered, and he sidestepped, evading Jack's corpse while creating distance from Jiang Wuming.
This was because he knew very well that if he were to block Jack's corpse, what awaited him would be Jiang Wuming's attack.
This was indeed the case.
Jiang Wuming wanted to use Jack's corpse to disrupt Nisen and then transition from defense to offense. However, Nisen had seen through this. He did not rush to attack but stood in place, coldly watching Nisen, who had once again transformed into a mass of black mist.
Bang!
Subsequently, Jack's corpse fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust. Blood instantly dyed the ground crimson.
"He fought two opponents alone, was completely unharmed, and even killed one of the assassins?!"
From a distance, Ye Feng saw this scene and his eyes widened in shock, his face filled with disbelief!
He couldn't believe or accept what Jiang Wuming had just done!
Even he was like this, let alone Nisen, who was in the midst of the battle?
Within the black mist, Nisen's usually expressionless face was also filled with shock!
It was no exaggeration to say that he had displayed the assassin's art of assassination to its absolute limit just now.
With everything he had done, even a two-star War God at the tenth stage could not have resolved or broken his moves.
But Jiang Wuming, using Jack as a shield, had perfectly nullified his assassination attempt!
Amidst his shock, Nisen was also hesitating whether to continue fighting Jiang Wuming.
Reason told him that with Jack's assistance, his two attempts had failed to kill Jiang Wuming. Now, facing Jiang Wuming one-on-one, he knew that killing Jiang Wuming would be extremely difficult.
But at the same time, he also knew the importance of this mission. If he were to leave like this, the organization would absolutely not let him go!
"Don't entertain any illusions of escape. This time next year will be your death anniversary!"
While Nisen was hesitating, Jiang Wuming spoke coldly, pronouncing Nisen's death sentence.
Although Jiang Wuming could not see Nisen's expression, he could sense Nisen's hesitation—Nisen's aura was fluctuating violently at this moment; it was a manifestation of hesitation and struggle!
