Chapter 530: Life hangs on a thread

Since leaving Ye Lin, Zuo Feng has been in danger several times, but none of them has been as close to death as now.

When facing Kui Rong in Luancheng, although the opponent had enough ability to kill him, he even forced him to have no power to fight back. But at that time, the opponent had murderous aura but no killing intention, which he could feel at the time, so he was not too worried.

When Kui Lingmen blocked him outside the chaotic land, Zuo Feng was ready to die, or he was mentally prepared at that time, and it would be difficult for him to escape from the tiger's mouth under such circumstances. But before the enemy approached him, he was killed by Kang Zhen and his men, who rescued him and took him away from that place.

Although he faced a strong enemy at the Xinjun Wharf, Zuo Feng believed that if he used all means, he could still save his life even if the price he paid was great.

But the current situation is completely different from the past. The biting coldness on the body not only represents that the opponent's suppressed murderous aura has only fully erupted at this time, but also represents that the opponent is a very good assassin.

He didn't know the strength of this assassin yet, but he was definitely a leader in this field, otherwise he wouldn't have discovered it until now.

Almost no one on the whole street noticed the changes here. Although he was in the downtown, Zuo Feng felt like he was standing alone here, isolated and helpless. And what's more fatal is that when Zuo Feng was studying the corpse puppet last night, he disliked the prison lock and took it off and put it into the crystal storage because it was too troublesome.

If he had the prison lock, he believed that he could block the assassin's long-accumulated attack. As long as he could give himself a chance to breathe, he should be able to deal with it calmly next.

But the prison lock was not around, he could only use his flesh and blood to face this thundering attack. At this time, Zuo Feng's mind was turning, whether he should sacrifice his left arm or his right arm.

Although it was less than a blink of an eye, countless thoughts flashed in Zuo Feng's mind. Just as his mind was spinning rapidly, his left arm had slowly raised up. If he was asked to give up one arm, he would rather give this left arm to the other party in exchange for his own chance of survival.

Just as he raised his arm, his body also tried to dodge to the side and back. This action was not carefully considered, but a subconscious action of the body at the moment of being attacked.

But just when Zuo Feng took half a step to the side and back, his body hit a hard "object". Zuo Feng smiled happily at the "object" that blocked his only way out.

This smile was too weird, and even the sword light that attacked with all its strength seemed to have a momentary pause. The opponent was a master in this area, and this sword was coming with a fierce momentum and there was no turning back. Of course, it was impossible for it to really stop at this moment. Zuo Feng also felt the changes in the opponent's long sword simply by relying on his extraordinary spiritual perception.

Although it was just a little feeling, it made Zuo Feng feel a little more at ease. From the time the opponent launched the attack to this moment, it was just a blink of an eye. Moreover, the opponent grasped the angle, position and timing of the assassination just right. Such a precise assassination made Zuo Feng passive for a while.

But just after the opponent's sword conveyed a little slow emotion, Zuo Feng finally felt the existence of a trace of life. At the moment when the opponent drew his sword, he seemed to be a fish trapped in a net. At this time, he finally found a hole in the net.

He twisted his body flexibly and dodged to the side. Originally, under this kind of assassination, once the opponent launched a thunderous attack, if he dodged, the opponent's back moves would come in waves until he died. So the wise choice is to fight hard at this time, and Zuo Feng's choice looks extremely stupid.

At the moment when Zuo Feng's body moved, the huge "object" that blocked Zuo Feng's way just now also moved. Because this is the corpse puppet that has been following him since he came out of the inn. This corpse puppet looks like a dull and strong man, and there is no cultivation from the appearance, and it will not attract other people's attention at all.

Even Zuo Feng forgot the existence of the corpse puppet behind him because he was thinking about other things. But at this critical moment, the corpse puppet still played a huge role.

Zuo Feng's dodge and the corpse puppet's step forward obviously greatly exceeded the assassin's expectations. He did not expect Zuo Feng to avoid his full-strength attack at first, and another surprise was that the strong man behind Zuo Feng actually had such a reaction and cooperation, blocking at the most critical moment.

The assassin filled up all his energy and spirit with this sword. He was confident that even among the warriors of the same level, no one dared to take it head-on. Although the appearance of the strong man was unexpected, he believed that this attack would definitely kill the strong man, and even kill the strong man and the boy in front of him on the spot.

But the next moment, the assassin realized that his calculation was wrong again. When the long sword cut into the strong man's arm, he felt a slight shock in his heart. After the long sword entered the flesh, it did not feel as unstoppable as before, but seemed to encounter huge resistance.

The feeling was neither like the flesh and blood body of a bronze warrior, nor like wearing a hard arm guard. Instead, he clearly felt the long sword cutting into the opponent's flesh, but the further it went inward, the greater the resistance the long sword faced. At the same time, the spiritual energy that he had poured into the opponent's body along the long sword disappeared without a trace.

At this time, Zuo Feng finally saw the assassin's true face, because his attention was on the opponent's long sword before, and he didn't have time to observe the opponent's appearance. Now Zuo Feng, with the help of the corpse puppet, also saw that this was a man in black, and his figure looked a little thin.

If compared, the assassin's figure was slightly similar to Zuo Feng, but he was a little taller than Zuo Feng. At this time, he was wrapped tightly in a close-fitting black dress, so that he would not make much noise when he moved.

The assassin's entire face was completely wrapped in a black scarf, with only a pair of eyes exposed. But it was these hawk-like eyes that made it difficult for people to forget them as long as they took a look. They were eyes that were always waiting to attack the prey, and they gave people the feeling that they would never stop once they failed to achieve their goal.

More importantly, Zuo Feng had already seen the opponent's cultivation level at this time, the strength of the peak of the tendon hardening period. Although the opponent was trying his best to conceal his own cultivation level, with Zuo Feng's observation ability, he could clearly observe the opponent's true level at a glance. However, the strength displayed by this assassin only looked like the sixth or seventh level of the Tempering Tendon Stage.

The opponent's ability to conceal his cultivation is definitely extraordinary, because if the opponent's long sword and arm had not entered within three feet of Zuo Feng, even Zuo Feng would not be able to see through his true strength. Because within three feet of Zuo Feng, it is exactly the range that his mental power can cover, and he is controlling the corpse puppet at this time, so he knows the situation within three feet of his body.

The opponent's long sword cut into the forearm of the corpse puppet, but when the long sword was about to cut into the arm bone of the corpse puppet, it completely stopped. How could Zuo Feng miss such an opportunity, but at the same time he was very careful to keep a distance from the opponent, because the opponent deliberately suppressed his own cultivation, and it is very likely that he wanted to lure him to be killed by the opponent.

Finally dodging the opponent's fatal sword, Zuo Feng's entire vision suddenly widened, and the surrounding scenery also came into view at the same time. At this time, the people around had already noticed the changes here. Some warriors stopped not far away to observe, but most people scattered and hid.

Not far behind him, Amber was also being besieged by two warriors. Although these two warriors were dressed in roughly the same outfit as the assassin in front of him, their strength was obviously much worse. Moreover, these two people had no intention of taking Amber's life at all. It seemed more like they were holding Amber back so that the assassin could successfully kill Zuo Feng.

Originally, all these plans could be said to be flawless. If there were no corpse puppets around, I believe that even if Zuo Feng was not dead at this moment, his left arm would have been chopped off. Now that Amber was being held back by someone, and his left arm was severely injured, it was only a matter of time before he was killed.

However, the assassin's sword was held back by the corpse puppet, and Zuo Feng certainly could not miss such an opportunity. However, the opponent's strength was far superior to his own, and rushing forward rashly would only play into the opponent's hands. Zuo Feng waved his palm and threw out two flying knives at a speed so fast that it was almost invisible.

This was the short blade that Zuo Feng had obtained in the chaotic land. At this time, Zuo Feng had spotted the opportunity, and wanted to keep a distance to launch an attack. This short blade was the best weapon.

The assassin also reacted very quickly, quickly pulling the long sword back and leaping backwards. But at this moment, the corpse puppet suddenly stretched out his hands and grabbed the long sword with great accuracy.

Originally, the corpse puppet had been chopped on the arm, and it was difficult to grab the long sword even if both hands were used at the same time. But this is a corpse puppet after all, not a real warrior. He has no sense of pain, and will not become difficult to move because of injuries, unless his bones are completely destroyed.

This change was even more beyond the assassin's expectations, because he has not figured out why this strong man has such a strong body. The long sword was caught by the opponent, and seeing that the two flying knives were about to pierce, his body suddenly twisted at an incredible angle, barely avoiding the two deadly flying knives.

However, the assassin's eyes finally changed at this time. There was no longer the confidence in his eyes when he took action before, and there was a look of doubt in his eyes.

At this moment, Zuo Feng was extremely calm, and his mental power reached a high level of concentration. He also instantly realized that there were two other vague murderous auras lurking in the dark around him, as if waiting for the opportunity to attack him.
