"Retreat!"
The ghostly figure was very decisive. He immediately retreated after his attack failed.
He was an assassin who hid in the dark. He was not used to fighting head-on.
"Trying to escape?" Jian Wushuang's eyes were surging with murderous intent. After his sword failed to hit the target, two bright golden lights burst out.
The Hong Jun Golden Sword was like a comet, piercing through the void. It appeared behind the ghostly figure very quickly and pierced through his body instantly.
However, when it pierced through, it did not come into contact with any physical body. Moreover, the ghostly figure also completely disappeared.
Jian Wushuang looked around and used his Soul Power to scan the surroundings. However, he could not find anyone.
"What a brilliant concealment technique and assassination technique!" Jian Wushuang clenched his fists and looked extremely solemn.
It was obvious that the ghostly figure was hiding behind him. However, his Soul Power did not detect it at all. The concealment technique was quite impressive.
However, the assassination technique that followed really shocked Jian Wushuang.
He had never seen such a terrifying assassination technique since he started cultivating.
Not only was the timing perfect, but the dagger … the dagger was too scary.
"Gu Wang, luckily you took action in time. Otherwise …" Jian Wushuang still had some lingering fear.
He knew very well that it was Gu Wang who reminded him in time. At the same time, the tentacle that appeared behind him was also from Gu Wang.
If it was not for the tentacle blocking for a moment, Jian Wushuang would not have been able to dodge the dagger's attack.
"I just woke up. Luckily, I made it in time," Gu Wang's voice sounded in Jian Wushuang's head. His voice had a tinge of sadness.
The scene just now was too dangerous.
If Gu Wang woke up a little later, Jian Wushuang would probably be dead.
"Oh yeah, what happened to the person just now? I could tell that he should be an Almighty. Jian Wushuang, since when were you qualified for an Almighty to assassinate you?" Gu Wang asked in surprise.
When Gu Wang was in deep sleep, Jian Wushuang was still in Ancient God Sanctuary and he had just made a breakthrough to Real God.
Not much time had passed since then. However, when he woke up again, he saw an Almighty taking action to kill him, Jian Wushuang.
To be assassinated by an Almighty, what kind of honor was that?
"When you were in deep sleep, I received some opportunities and my power increased a lot. Now, I already have the fighting power of an Almighty," Jian Wushuang said.
"Fighting power of an Almighty?" Gu Wang was delighted.
"Let's not talk about this first. I am in an unusual situation now," Jian Wushuang said in a low voice.
Gu Wang also noticed the surrounding void. The terrifying dark storm, in addition to the sneak attack by the Almighty earlier, Jian Wushuang was obviously in a terrible situation.
"What exactly happened?" Gu Wang asked in a low voice.
"Here's the thing." Jian Wushuang gave a brief account of what had happened.
"Previously, I thought that it was an accident that caused the Lei Dynasty to fall into the Buddhist Demon Sea. However, from the looks of it now, I'm afraid that's not the case," Jian Wushuang looked solemn.
He wasn't a fool. On the contrary, he had gone through a lot and struggled to climb out from the Blood Sea.
Previously, when he got the news that the Lei Dynasty had fallen into the Buddhist Demon Sea, Jian Wushuang felt that it was strange. However, he didn't pay much attention to it.
However, at that very moment, after encountering the assassination, Jian Wushuang understood.
He could almost conclude that the incident wasn't an accident but someone had planned it meticulously.
Plus, the person who was set up definitely wasn't the Lei Dynasty. He was most probably just a bait. The real target … was him!
"These people came specifically for me!" Jian Wushuang clenched his fists.
With such a meticulous plan, they even arranged for an Almighty to assassinate him. On top of that, the Almighty's assassination skills were so terrifying. It was obvious that they wanted to kill him.
"Jian Wushuang, when I was in deep sleep, which experts did you offend? The other party's plan this time is extraordinary, "Gu Wang's voice grew solemn.
"In the Eternal Chaotic World, there was only one powerhouse who had fought head-on with me and wanted to kill me. It was the Soaring Heaven King Palace. However, although the Soaring Heaven King Palace was strong, it was impossible for them to be so generous. Moreover, it was impossible for them to set me up in the Buddhist Demon Sea. They didn't have the guts to do so," Jian Wushuang muttered.
Although the Soaring Heaven King Palace was strong, they didn't have many Almighties. Plus, everyone knew about the dangers of the Buddhist Demon Sea. If the Soaring Heaven King Palace really wanted to set Jian Wushuang up, they wouldn't choose to do it in the Buddhist Demon Sea.
The risk was too great.
As it wasn't the Soaring Heaven King Palace, only the dark powerhouses in the Eternal Chaotic World had the ability and would do so.
"The Acheron Palace!"
"This incident was most probably set up by the Acheron Palace."
Jian Wushuang's face grew grave.
The Acheron Palace was infamous.
Jian Wushuang was extremely fearful of the Acheron Palace.
The Acheron Palace didn't take any action. However, once they took action, there was almost no possibility of failure.
Then, the Acheron Palace took action against him. Moreover, they had planned it meticulously. They had deliberately used the Lei Dynasty as bait to lure him to the Buddhist Demon Sea.
Then, he had fallen into the trap of the Acheron Palace completely. He was in a very bad situation.
"Gu Wang, you have completed your transformation and awakened. Now, you should be able to help me quite a bit, right?" Jian Wushuang asked.
"Of course. The power of the Plenilune is determined by the Ancient God that it parasitizes. Due to your influence, I have undergone a huge change this time around. Moreover, I can use my killing power," Gu Wang said.
"That's great." Jian Wushuang's gaze grew grave, "As the Acheron Palace took action against me, they must have studied me meticulously. They definitely know some of my trump cards and they would have made corresponding preparations. However, there are some trump cards that I have never shown in front of anyone. These trump cards are the key to me being able to escape this calamity!"
"Gu Wang, you are also one of the trump cards that I have now. Let's have a good fight with the people from the Acheron Palace."
"It's my honor," Gu Wang replied.
Jian Wushuang took a deep breath and his gaze became extremely sharp.
He knew that he had fallen into the trap set up by the Acheron Palace. At this point, it was impossible for him to leave using the same route that he had come from.
Even if he immediately sent a message to the Temple Lord Yuan and Hall Master Gu Xin, Hall Master Gu Xin was still quite far away from the triangular island. Hence, she wouldn't be able to rush over to support him in a short period of time.
As for the Temple Lord Yuan, he wouldn't be able to help either.
There was no other way.
He could only fight with the people from the Acheron Palace head-on.
He could only rely on himself for everything.
As for whether he would live or die, it would depend on his own abilities.
