As Murong Hui had a sudden premonition, the assassin, perched on a stone pillar thirteen hundred steps away from the Skeleton Document Square, also released the "bowstring".
The assassin wore a gray-black triangular hat, his scarf pulled up to cover his nose, and a dirty long trench coat, revealing only a pair of deeply-set eyes and a few strands of white hair. Leaning back, his right hand grasped a Black Ebony Spear—a material only produced in the Fourth-Turn Secret Realm, which even refined steel weapons could not mark.
As his heart pounded like a war drum, all the muscles from his feet to waist, shoulders, and arms, akin to steel cables twisted to the extreme, burst forth iron-like blood, and the bones in his right arm fractured inch by inch.
Yan Qing was not mistaken. To launch a Foundation Establishment level attack with Third Transition Cultivation exacted an extremely heavy price—this price being his body, Qi Blood, and lifespan!
