Gu Jianlin had just finished speaking when a steel arrow whistled toward him from behind, slicing through the air with a shrill sound of destruction.
Without turning his head, he caught it with a reverse grip, clenched his hand tightly, and snapped the arrow into two pieces.
Two loyal followers of the Fallen scooped up Hasegawa Shinichi, who was bleeding from his seven orifices, and fled without looking back.
Gu Jianlin didn't pursue them since they couldn't escape the range of his perception anyway.
The Divine Path was inherently powerful but uncontrollable, and the combat strength in the Ghost People state far exceeded that of the same rank. Especially with the dual-core boost, his body was flooded with overwhelming negative energy, which greatly enhanced both his senses and physical skills. Even challenges beyond his rank became possible.
