The two pieces of the dragon hide treasure map had fallen into the hands of the Phantom Swordsman, Mu Shixiong.
Mu Shixiong was a legendary swordsman who had been in hiding in the martial world for a long time. This person had swept through the world with a ghost sword, unpredictable and indescribably mysterious. No one had ever known when or where his sword would be drawn. The only thing that was known was that once the ghost sword was drawn, someone would definitely turn into a ghost. There had never been an exception. That was why he was called the Phantom Swordsman. His reputation was unparalleled throughout the world.
It was until the Unrivaled Swordsman, Jun Moyan, came knocking on his door. After hundreds of moves, the Phantom Swordsman was severely injured and had disappeared from the martial world ever since. However, he was the only two survivors in Jun Moyan's lifetime of swordsmanship.
The other one was Bai Yixue. He was the lucky one who didn't have much skill back then!
Now, however, the Phantom Swordsman had reappeared and snatched the treasure map with a single move.
The Phantom Swordsman's might had not diminished, he lived up to his reputation. The martial artists who were besieging him had almost given up all hope and were helpless against him.
Seeing that the Phantom Swordsman had taken control of the situation and could escape at any time, becoming the final winner of the treasure map battle …
As a matter of fact, the Ghost Swordsman had already done so. With his ghost-like movements, he had already drifted more than 50 kilometers away in an instant, and then mysteriously hid himself in a valley. His body kept changing directions, and he finally entered a dense forest after changing directions seventeen or eighteen times.
It was only when he arrived that the Phantom Swordsman heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that he was safe. Lowering his head to look at the treasure map in his hands, he could not help grinning in delight.
With this item in hand, he only needed to find a place to cultivate for a few years. So what if he had to go up against Jun Moyan again? He had to avenge himself! By then, the title of Unrivaled Swordsman or even Unrivaled Expert would fall on the head of the Phantom Swordsman, Mu Shixiong!
Although he had paid the price of a bloody battle today and was severely injured, it was all worth it!
It was then that a strange phenomenon appeared.
The phenomenon of heaven and earth suddenly appeared, and the color of everything in the surroundings seemed to undergo a strange change.
Even the pure purple sky had changed its hue; it was no longer clear.
Such a strange scene suddenly appeared in front of the Phantom Swordsman!
Mu Shixiong was shocked to see this. He hurriedly looked around and saw the underworld fog rising in the air, covering the sun and the sky. It even covered the purple sky. How could someone as knowledgeable as him not know who was coming? He said in surprise, "Sen Luo …"
Before he finished speaking, a sword had already appeared in the air, and an extremely cold voice said, "Let me experience the Ghost Swordsman's skills!"
The moment the sword appeared, the heavens and earth froze!
A white robe fluttered in the air, the sword light was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky. It was Bai Yixue who had come on his sword.
Mu Shixiong snorted coldly, "Bai Yixue, it's you … How can you be my opponent? Do you really think that you can be on par with me just because you survived Jun Moyan's sword?"
There was an eerie flash of sword light as the ferocious strike struck Bai Yixue's sword. With a long howl, Bai Yixue retreated and spun in the air before descending once more. Although he had been repelled by Mu Shixiong's strike, he was not severely injured and was still capable of fighting.
At this time, a low voice spoke faintly, "He's not your opponent? What about me? "
The voice was filled with the loneliness of being at the pinnacle.
A flash of sword light appeared as the voice spoke. It had just appeared, but it was already at Mu Shixiong's throat!
Mu Shixiong was shocked. "What a fast sword!"
Seeing that the killing blow was about to land, the Phantom Swordsman dared not be careless. He retreated swiftly but Bai Yixue had already descended from the sky to attack again.
Mu Shixiong did not panic even when he was ambushed by the two men in front of him. As the sword in his hand moved swiftly, the sword light suddenly split into two to attack Bai Yixue and the mysterious man. He shouted, "Who are you?"
The man and his sword turned into a silhouette that drifted left and right, but the sword light was like a downpour as he replied faintly, "The person who will kill you!"
Facing two attacks at the same time, Mu Shixiong was still a fatigued swordsman despite being a pinnacle swordsman in the world. His body was injured, so he could not help but fall into a disadvantageous position.
It was then that a creepy voice rang out, "Ghost Door, Has, Opened, Phantom Swordsman, Quickly, Return, Quickly …"
The voice sounded like thousands of ghosts coming out from the netherworld. As the ghostly voice echoed, countless silhouettes appeared.
The Phantom Swordsman was shocked and furious. "It's really you guys …"
Although the Phantom Swordsman was at a disadvantage against the joint attack of two experts, he was not hopeless. Even when the mysterious man who came later was a pinnacle expert who was no weaker than him in swordsmanship cultivation base, the Phantom Swordsman was still confident that he could escape with his life.
However, with the sudden appearance of Yama's top ten experts, the situation took a turn for the worse. The Phantom Swordsman's defeat was already set in stone; there was no turning back.
The Phantom Swordsman hollered in fury and anxiety, "Hold it!"
To Mu Shixiong, it was no longer a dangerous situation but a dead end. His only way out was that Bai Yixue and his companion were not on the same side as the Concourse of the Underworld's assassins; he still had some room to maneuver.
In spite of this, how could they slow down when they were all on the same side? It was too late to increase their speed as much as possible, so they all attacked together.
With two loud slashes, the Phantom Swordsman was struck consecutively, two spurts of blood spurting out. Mu Shixiong understood immediately that if he did not hand over the treasure map, he would die for sure!
In light of this, he could not help hollering in grief and indignation, "I'll give you the treasure map! Stop!"
In spite of this, the surrounding attacks did not seem to have any intention of stopping. The murderous intent intensified.
Mu Shixiong's thoughts raced as he made a prompt decision. With a shake of his hand, he tossed the dragonhide treasure map away. Someone flew out swiftly to catch the treasure map. Then, flames flashed, but they could not burn it. Saber light flashed continuously, but they could not destroy it either. It was confirmed that it was indeed the dragonhide treasure map.
After making sure that there was no mistake, he immediately let out a howl that everyone's attacks slowed down.
The Phantom Swordsman, Mu Shixiong, panted heavily and said fiercely, "The treasure map is already in your hands. Do you still want to kill us all?"
The twelve of them looked at each other and suddenly laughed. "As you wish, we'll kill them all!"
Before their words echoed in the air, the twelve of them charged forward once more. However, the attack this time was more than ten times more intense than before!
"Shameless … shameless! Ah … "
Facing such an attack, the Phantom Swordsman, who was already at his wits' end, let out a pained cry as his head flew into the sky; his soul had gone to the underworld just like that.
"Let's go."
King Qinguang said.
The others retreated and turned into a wraith fog, vanishing abruptly.
"Bai Yi, we'll discuss this when we get back."
