Chapter 749
“Clank!”

A thunderous clank sounded .
Wu Dao’s chilling smile suddenly stiffened . In the next moment, his smile was replaced by shock and consternation .
He felt a strong force that he had never experienced before pushing him upwards . The saber in his hand was instantly tossed aside in the air . The horrible force landed on his arms and crushed them inch by inch . Then, it spread to his insides .
“Splat!”
A stream of blood squirted out from his mouth . His body was thrown backward like a kite with its string cut off . His aura began to thin .
“He’s still alive?” Jian Wushuang was slightly taken aback .
His attack was no less powerful than the one he’d launched at the white-haired elder . The elder had been at Step One of the Eternal Realm, but he had been unable to avoid being seriously injured . Wu Dao was way below Step One of the Eternal Realm . Normally, this attack should be more than enough to kill him .
However, it was evident that in spite of Wu Dao’s unprecedented severe injuries, his Life Core was not shattered .
An expert in the Eternal Realm would not die as long as his Life Core was intact .
“Run! Run for it!”
Soaked in blood, Wu Dao, whose face was too miserable to look at, regained his balance and stood up . Without hesitation, he wheeled around and fled .
“You can’t escape!”

Jian Wushuang growled, his face frosty . He started chasing Wu Dao . He was extremely swift, much faster than Wu Dao .
Jian Wushuang was not much better than Wu Dao at running . But since Wu Dao was severely injured, there was a serious dent in his speed .
“Damn it!”
Jian Wushuang was getting closer and closer . Wu Dao’s pale face became even more gloomy .
“I have to make a move!” Wu Dao clenched his teeth, and a stream of blood surged up inside his body .
The next moment, 17 figures who looked exactly like Wu Dao jumped out .
A total of 18 ‘Wu Daos’ appeared before Jian Wushuang . Their appearances and aura were exactly the same . It was impossible to tell them apart with the naked eye .
They swiftly fled in different directions . They were extraordinarily fast .
“This move again?”
Jian Wushuang’s pupils contracted . He was not surprised at all .
A hundred years ago, Wu Dao had walked into his trap, hunted by a Gold-armored Ancient God . He had cast the same move in order to run for his life .
But back then, he could only conjure eight doppelgangers . Now, he could produce 17 . His chance of survival had increased significantly .

“All 18 figures are exactly the same . Indeed, I cannot distinguish the true one from the others . As long as his Original Body is alive, it’s useless to kill his doppelgangers . What a smart move . ”
Jian Wushuang nodded . He then tittered, “Unfortunately, it’s not going to work on me!”
Jian Wushuang’s face was stony, his eyes transfixed upon the 18 ‘Wu Daos’ who were running away from him frantically . Between his eyebrows, a scarlet mark emerged . It looked like a vertical crack; it was slowly widening . An eerie blood-red upside down eye suddenly opened .
“Secret Skill, the Scarlet Eye!”
A jet of blazing blood-red light shot out of the eye and swept across the 18 figures ahead .
It was the Scarlet Eye Secret Skill, one of the Ancient God Clan’s top three Secret Skills . It was devised to penetrate all sorts of illusions .
“There’s his Original Body!”
Jian Wushuang targeted one of the figures .
He fixed his eyes on Wu Dao’s Original Body .
“How can it be?”
Seeing Jian Wushuang go straight for him without being disturbed by the 17 doppelgangers he’d conjured, Wu Dao lost his poise .
“How, how did he see through my Original Body and doppelgangers?” Wu Dao found this utterly inconceivable . A sense of terror came over him .

In his entire life, he had only felt this kind of overbearing terror once .
It had been during the last fight with Xuan Yi . Xuan Yi had grabbed him and taken control of his mind . He had been as horror-stricken then as he was now .
Today, he was once again gripped by this terror .
“You have no way to escape!”
Jian Wushuang’s icy voice sounded in Wu Dao’s ears . A huge sword shadow hacked down on him .
The sword shadow was so dazzling that Wu Dao had to narrow his eyes . He frantically wielded his saber in an attempt to resist the attack . But…”Boom!”
An explosion erupted . Wu Dao’s body plummeted downwards like a meteorite . It landed hard on the ground, producing a huge pit that measured 300 meters across .
At the center of the huge pit, Wu Dao’s body had almost been blasted into pieces . His Life Core was also damaged, but it had not shattered yet .
Wu Dao just lay there, struggling helplessly to get to his feet .
“Whoosh!”
Jian Wushuang zoomed in and looked down at him condescendingly .
“I assume you guys from the Cloud Sea Asgard have set up secret assembly sites in the Tianqi Mountains . Where are they?” Jian Wushuang asked .
When experts from assorted Sects of the Firmament Territory entered the Eternal Zone, they often turned up at a certain place in the Tianqi Mountains . Their Messaging Slips could not function in the Eternal Zone, so the sects circled out secret assembly sites to exchange messages .
“Humph, you really think I’ll tell you?” Wu Dao sneered, his eyes already filled with despair .
“Oh?” Jian Wushuang raised his eyebrows . “You think as long as you don’t tell me I can’t figure it out?”
“Wu Dao, you just made a breakthrough and reached the Eternal Realm . This is your first time in the Tianqi Mountains . Unlike other experts from the Cloud Sea Asgards who have traveled the Tianqi Mountains several times, you’re completely ignorant of the environment and topography of the Tianqi Mountains . ”
“So, you must be carrying the map the Cloud Sea Asgard drew for you . The Cloud Sea Asgard’s secret assembly sites ought to be marked on the map, am I right?”
Jian Wushuang smiled blandly . Wu Dao was thoroughly terrified .
“How?”
“How do you know this?”
“How come you know my name? You know I’m from the Cloud Sea Asgard? And you even know I just entered the Eternal Realm?”
“Are you a Demon God? No, the Demon God Clan couldn’t have learned these things!”
“Who on earth are you?”
Lying on his back, Wu Dao barked desperately, staring at Jian Wushuang .
Looking down at Wu Dao, Jian Wushuang smirked coldly, slowly took down his mask, and unveiled a handsome but stern face .
