I gain permanent defense when attacked; even gods and demons can't hurt me.

The renowned author, Xiaopang, wants to bring his new novel, "Permanent Defense Increases When Hit, Gods and Demons Can't Hit Me," to Cola Novels!

Ghost Blade's attack movements were very fluid and skillful. As the ace of the Assassin's Hall, the entire sneak attack took less than a second.

The jet-black dagger drew closer and closer to Lin Yuan's back without making a sound.

The deadly physical puncture and the threat of potent poison were imminent, directly targeting Lin Yuan's vital rear end.

Ghost Blade's dagger pierced Lin Yuan's back with unerring accuracy, and a cruel smile immediately appeared on his lips. He had absolute confidence in the damage he was capable of inflicting.

This attack carried his full offensive power, as well as the massive true damage from a legendary class.

He believed that Lin Yuan's body would be completely pierced in the next second, and his heart would be instantly corroded by the deadly poison.

However, with a crisp sound, the smile on Ghost Blade's lips froze completely.

He felt an immense, insurmountable resistance coming from the tip of the dagger; his dagger had not pierced Lin Yuan's body.

A faint golden light appeared on Lin Yuan's skin at some unknown time.

Invincible barrier!

Once activated, this skill grants immunity to all external damage, including true damage that ignores armor.

The faint golden light blocked out all the shadow magic and poison on the dagger.

This absolutely invincible defense made Ghost Blade's seemingly inevitable attack a joke.

Faced with such a top-tier assassination attempt, Lin Yuan wouldn't bother with accumulating defensive points.

Assassins basically hit and run, so they can't farm any defense points at all.

Lin Yuan reacted very quickly, launching a counterattack the instant he blocked the attack, directly activating gravity traction.

A massive gravitational field instantly spread out from Lin Yuan, enveloping Ghost Blade's body.

Ghost Blade immediately felt his body become incredibly heavy. Then, Lin Yuan gripped the Thousand Devouring Dragon's Thorn with his right hand and twirled it on the short blade sheath.

Thunderous Strike Shakes the Prison!

The lightning instantly engulfed Ghost Blade's entire body, and the intense current caused severe paralysis.

The combined effects of gravity and paralysis completely froze Ghost Blade's body in place, rendering him utterly immobile.

However, as a highly experienced top assassin, how could Ghost Blade not have a skill to break free from control?

Ghostblade immediately activated the purification skill [Shadow Cleansing], black shadow energy flowed throughout his body, and the two control effects were instantly removed.

Ghost Blade regained his mobility, and the heaviness and numbness in his body disappeared. But just as he was about to retreat and create distance, Lin Yuan's follow-up attack arrived.

Lin Yuan turned around and activated [Gravity Pull] and [Raging Thunder Prison Thrust] again, and the gravity field and raging lightning energy descended on Ghost Blade once more.

Not only that, Lin Yuan also swung his giant shield out with the momentum, adding [Shield Bash] directly, and the heavy shield slammed into Ghost Blade's head.

Gravity control, lightning paralysis, and physical stun—three control effects act simultaneously on the Demon Blade!

Ghostblade's body, which had just recovered, once again fell into a state of complete stiffness and unconsciousness.

"Fuck!"

Ghostblade cursed inwardly and swore.

He never expected that the opponent's knight's skill release speed would be so fast.

Faced with triple control, Oni-Blade could only bite his tongue to activate his ability to break free of the control once more.

This is another trump card of his that can save his life, called [Necromantic Escape].

A cloud of black mist burst from Ghost Blade's body; he used this extremely costly skill to forcibly remove the dizziness and paralysis.

He had no idea how Lin Yuan had managed to use the same skill multiple times in such a short period of time.

Based on the normal skill cooldown of a professional, at Lin Yuan's level, these control skills should require at least ten seconds of cooldown time.

Ghostblade just wants to break free of the control and quickly activate his stealth skill to leave this place.

He was the kind of traditional assassin who aimed for a single, decisive blow.

If the assassination attempt fails, he will retreat without hesitation, even if there is a significant difference in level between himself and his opponent.

Ghostblade's form began to become transparent, preparing to blend into the surrounding darkness.

"Trying to run?" Lin Yuan chuckled as he watched Ghost Blade's movements.

"Let's see just how many cleanse and control skills you actually possess!"

Lin Yuan stood still, not giving chase, but instead activated the three skills he had just used: Gravity Pull, Thunderous Prison Strike, and Shield Bash!

In addition, Lin Yuan raised his right foot and stomped heavily on the ground, adding a [War Stomp] effect.

The ground shook violently, and an invisible shockwave spread out, striking the Ghost Blade who was trying to hide.

The effects of War Stomp stack on Shield Bash, extending the duration of the stun.

He was frozen in place once again!

Shield Bash and War Stomp are both very common skills in the early game.

Although they all have impressive control effects, they are limited by cooldown time and cannot be used continuously, and their range is relatively short.

However, in Lin Yuan's hands, it was completely different. He possessed the Endless Barrier and the Monarch's Domain, which immediately transformed these originally insignificant control skills into divine control techniques.

Ghost Blade was frozen in place, his mind remaining clear, but his body completely out of control.

"￥#@*&%@!"

Ghostblade cursed out the most vile words in his mind, completely breaking down.

He, a top-tier assassin, was actually controlled and killed by a student using an infinite combo.

No matter how much he struggled, the opponent's skills kept hitting him.

All of his purification skills and debuff removal items had been exhausted in the previous rounds of combat.

Now he could only stand there in despair, enduring the pressure of gravity and the electric shocks from lightning.

……

Several dozen seconds later, a crisp cracking sound came from not far away.

The array wall that had been controlling Zuo Tiancheng was finally broken.

The black shadow wall shattered into countless fragments and dissipated into the air. Zuo Tiancheng rushed over anxiously.

When he saw Lin Yuan standing unharmed in the same spot, while the assassin was frozen not far away, he was stunned.

"Teacher Zuo, you're out." Lin Yuan turned to look at Zuo Tiancheng, his tone very calm.

"I've been controlling this person all along, so I'll leave it to your beast tamer to handle."

Since we can't get any defensive points anyway, we might as well leave it to Zuo Tiancheng instead of killing the opponent.

"Leave it to me," Zuo Tiancheng said with a gloomy expression.

He was furious that someone dared to assassinate his student right under his nose.

"Tear him to pieces!"

The six tamed beasts roared and pounced directly at the completely controlled Ghost Blade.

Ghost Blade was in a state of severe dizziness and paralysis, making it impossible for him to defend himself.

In the end, Ghost Blade died, and his body was mangled beyond recognition by the attacks of the Beast Tamers.
