At the same moment when Nie Tian killed Desolate Thirteen, in the Desolate Great Hall.
"How is this possible?" In the great hall, Cang Shanxue stared at a scarlet dot of light on the Sensory Spiritual Array. His calm expression revealed a hint of panic.
Of course, he could sense that Desolate Thirteen's aura had disappeared from the scarlet dot of light, and it had turned into another person's aura.
This undoubtedly meant that Desolate Thirteen was dead!
Although Desolate Thirteen was the weakest among the Desolate 13 Swords, he still had the strength of a sixth level Heavenly Emperor and was at the Intermediate Sword Ultimacy realm. In addition to his near-perfect concealment technique, he had a higher chance of winning even when facing a swordsman like Yin Zhiwei.
Cang Shanxue had investigated before. Yin Zhiwei's strength was already at the pinnacle of all the swordsmen participating in the Sword Doctrine Competition. If even such a person could not kill Desolate Thirteen, then who could Desolate Thirteen have died to?
"Desolate Thirteen is actually dead." Dugu Ni's eyes flickered, revealing a sinister coldness. Then, the corners of his lips twitched involuntarily, revealing a hint of a smile as he muttered, "Things are getting interesting now."
Dugu Ni stared at the scarlet dot of light on the Sensory Spiritual Array. He vaguely felt that this aura was actually rather familiar.
The Sensory Compass could sense the swordsman's aura, which was then reflected on the Sensory Spiritual Array. Hence, Cang Shanxue and Dugu Ni could determine the identity of the Desolate 13 Swords just from the aura of the light dot.
Desolate Thirteen's death was definitely beyond their expectations.
"Junior Brother, what did you see?" Cang Shanxue suddenly sensed that something was wrong with Dugu Ni's gaze and could not help but ask.
Dugu Ni smiled faintly and said, "The person who killed Desolate Thirteen seems to be an old friend. If it's really him, I won't be surprised. However, I can't be sure now. Let's wait and see. "
Dugu Ni vaguely sensed the familiar aura of the Proud Sword Intent from the scarlet dot of light. However, this aura was too weak, and he could not be sure that this person was Nie Tian!
Moreover, even if this person was Nie Tian, Dugu Ni had no intention of making a move. The person behind him did not ask him to kill Nie Tian. He remembered that the matter of killing Nie Tian was handed over to Asura Sect.
"Nie Tian, if it's really you, I'm afraid my Senior Brother's Thirteen Swords of Heavenly Desolation will be in danger." Cold smile appeared on Dugu Ni's face.
Cang Shanxue saw that Dugu Ni had no intention of speaking his mind. He frowned slightly, but there was nothing he could do.
Although Cang Shanxue was the Hall Master of the Heaven Wasteland Hall, he did not dare to look down on Dugu Ni. He even had to show enough respect, as both of them were on equal footing.
Cang Shan Xue had never interacted with Nie Tian before, so he was completely unfamiliar with Nie Tian's sword aura.
In a hidden canyon in the Forbidden Zone of Infinite Wasteland.
After running for a long time, Liu Haoyu couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Nie, who was that person just now?"
"An assassin arranged by the Heaven Wasteland Hall." Nie Tian said as he stared at the compass. He was considering whether or not he should throw it away.
With the compass, he could see the whereabouts of everyone, including the other twelve scarlet light spots. Nie Tian speculated that these twelve people were the remaining assassins of Heaven Wasteland.
However, if he carried the compass with him, these twelve assassins would be able to sense his whereabouts at any time. In this way, it would be equivalent to exposing himself.
If Nie Tian was alone, he could carry the compass with him and wait for the other assassins to come and kill them one by one.
However, he was currently with Kang Shibo and the others. If more than one assassin came at once, he would not be able to protect the others.
If he was separated from the others, Nie Tian would not be at ease.
After thinking about it, he finally decided to destroy the compass!
"This is the compass obtained from the assassin. It can sense the whereabouts of all swordsmen." At this time, Xiao Yun walked over and said while staring at the compass, "The people of the Heaven Wasteland Hall are really vicious. The so-called sword art competition is clearly a trap to kill swordsmen!"
The others also came to a realization as they looked at Nie Tian in astonishment.
Only now did they realize how wise it was for Nie Tian to crush the talisman after entering the forbidden region of Heaven Wasteland.
If he carried the talisman on him, it would be no different from becoming a live target of the Thirteen Swords of Heaven Wasteland, waiting to be killed.
"Yes." Nie Tian nodded. "Carrying the compass on me will always be troublesome. It's better to destroy it."
"Wait." Xiao Yun took a step forward and stopped Nie Tian. "You killed an assassin of the Heaven Wasteland Hall. The other assassins will definitely be furious and will definitely come for this compass. If you destroy the compass, these assassins will not be able to sense the aura of the compass and will definitely be furious. It will only stimulate them to kill more people. "
"Hmm?" Nie Tian's gaze slightly froze. He had indeed not thought of this. He glanced at Xiao Yun, who had a sinister smile on his face as if he had a good idea. He asked, "What do you want to do with this compass?"
"Give it away!" Xiao Yun said with a faint smile. "As long as the compass is given away, for example, to someone like Yin Zhiwei, wouldn't the battle of the Sword Dao be much more interesting?"
Nie Tian's eyes flickered as he immediately understood Xiao Yun's meaning.
The assassins of the Heaven Wasteland Hall did not see who killed Desolate Thirteen, so whoever held the compass was the murderer.
The compass was a hot potato and whoever held it would be chased by the Thirteen Swords of Heaven Wasteland.
The most ideal situation would be to 'give' the compass to a swordsman like Yin Zhiwei, who was strong enough and vicious enough to deal with the assassins of the Heaven Wasteland Hall.
"Alright, let's do that." Nie Tian smiled and readily agreed with Xiao Yun's idea.
"Then how do we give it away?" Han Ling and the rest walked over and asked in puzzlement.
"Very simple!" The corner of Nie Tian's mouth curled up as he threw the compass thousands of meters into the sky.
A glaring sword intent surged around the compass, forming a dazzling sword shadow.
"Let's leave." After taking a glance at the compass, Nie Tian blurred into action and prepared to find another place to hide.
The compass had already been thrown out and would soon be seen by many people. Of course, such a good item would belong to the strongest.
Nie Tian believed that with Yin Zhiwei's terrifying battle strength, it should not be a problem for him to snatch the compass.
The few figures left the canyon and quickly disappeared.
"Look, what's that?" Very quickly, some swordsmen noticed a glaring sword shadow floating in the air, as if there was a compass-like object in the sword shadow.
"It must be something good. I'll go get it!" Some swordsmen could not resist the temptation and soared into the sky, flying towards the compass.
Almost at the same time, sword intent surged into the sky from different locations. Dozens of figures appeared at the same time, all aiming for the compass.
"All of you, scram!" At this moment, a tyrannical voice rang out as a white-robed figure appeared. Silver blades shot out like a rain of arrows, forcing the others to retreat.
