I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means-Chapter 637 - 420 Escape!_3

Chapter 637 -420 Escape!_3

Benfica’s right hand grasped at nothing, devoid of any tactile sensation.

His complexion, which had just started to improve, instantly darkened as he looked at the profound grey shadow before him and ceased any further attempts.

He knew this was nothing more than a special sign left by the Shadow Power, Lis had long since used Shadow Jump to leave the area.

If Space Transmission is the specialty of those high-level mages, then Shadow Jump is the ultimate escape skill for high-level assassins and thieves.

And the Shadow Power that enveloped Lis’s body was undeniably a level higher, it had already reached the Legendary level.

First it was the teleportation of the Legendary Mage, and now the Shadow Jump of the Legendary Assassin…

Benfica felt there was something extraordinary about Lis. Was it really that so many Legendary Strongmen were standing behind him, or was it luck that he obtained these life-saving treasures?

Without pondering further, Benfica continued towards the location he sensed.

…

Lis emerged from the shadows, taking a deep breath.

Shadow Jump was an ability that Gold-level Assassins could master, but it was mostly used for escaping combat, and the distance covered wasn’t very far.

Lis also mastered this skill, but now he could only rely on the Shadow Plane to jump a few hundred meters at most.

Only Legendary Assassins capable of performing deep Shadow Jumps could significantly increase this distance.

However, Lis wasn’t in good shape at the moment, with the multiple uses of Space Transmission and the recent Shadow Jump, the impact on his body was quite severe.

There was also the injury from the magic shock, resulting in Lis’s body barely holding up.

Thankfully, Lis was now within the boundaries of Duke Burns’ Domain.

Lis wasn’t entirely certain of his defense, but seeing the unique blood-colored peaks of the Burns Mountain Range not far away, he should indeed be in Burns Territory.

There was no point in proceeding further in this place.

If Lord Burns noticed him at this distance, he would definitely take action.

If not noticed, then Lis would have to consider his subsequent plans to escape from Benfica’s clutches.

At this distance, if Lis were to use Space Transmission, which wasn’t very precise, he could end up even further off course.

After taking a deep breath, the searing pain within made it difficult for Lis to harness Magic Power, but he still forged a new protective shield in front of him.

At the same time, he took out a sharp longsword from the ring and gripped it tightly in his right hand.

Regardless, he had to give the other party a fierce response.

Since his rebirth, Lis had never suffered such a big loss. Even if the opponent was a Legend, he could not willingly accept defeat.

Less than ten seconds later, Benfica appeared before Lis again, dressed immaculately, as if the long-distance chase hadn’t affected his condition at all.

Seeing Lis holding a longsword, Benfica chuckled a bit.

“Giving up? Not planning to run anymore?”

“What, armed with a sword and thinking of striking me?”

Moving leisurely towards Lis, Benfica paid no mind to the longsword in Lis’s hand and said with a smile:

“I think I’ll use this sword!

“First I’ll chop off your arms and legs, and when your blood has nearly all spilled out, you’ll be better primed to accept my noble bloodline, after…”

Just then, a blood-colored scythe cut Benfica in two at the waist, the playful smile still on his face as shock and a hint of terror appeared in his eyes.

“Noble bloodline?”

“Who gave you the right to speak such words?”

An elderly voice spoke softly, its calm carrying a hint of disgust.
