Nie Tian and the others stood outside the gorge. Meanwhile, in the gorge.
A dozen or so figures were lying in ambush. They thought they had done a good job of hiding, but little did they know that Nie Tian already knew where they were.
These people had been hiding in the gorge for more than a month, but they had no idea who they were waiting for.
Their orders were to guard the gorge for a year. During that time, anyone who appeared in the gorge was to be killed on the spot!
The dozen or so people didn't move. They were like vicious wolves hiding in the night, ready to tear apart any prey that appeared in their line of sight at a moment's notice.
But what they didn't expect was that the next person to appear wasn't prey, but rather, a hunter even more vicious than the wolves!
Three figures appeared in the gorge, strolling leisurely as if they hadn't sensed anything.
One of them was a black-garbed cultivator, staring venomously at the silver-haired cultivator at the front. His eyes were filled with killing intent, and it was obvious that he couldn't hold back any longer.
He had been waiting for far too long, to the point where he wanted to kill anyone he saw!
The three figures walking in the gorge were none other than Nie Tian and the others.
Nie Tian walked at the forefront, a faint smile hanging at the corner of his mouth, as if nothing had happened at all.
He knew the auras and locations of the dozen or so cultivators hiding in the gorge, so he wasn't nervous in the slightest.
"Kill!" The black-garbed cultivator couldn't hold back any longer. With a roar, he attacked.
In the blink of an eye, a violent force whistled out, heading straight for Nie Tian.
The void trembled slightly, and the surrounding air tightened, as if it had turned into a sharp blade.
The black-garbed cultivator wasn't weak. He was a late-stage Paramount God, and he was adept at assassination. When he attacked, his speed and power were at their limits.
If his target had been an ordinary late-stage Paramount God or peak Paramount God, he would have been seriously injured, if not killed.
Unfortunately, his target was Nie Tian.
Given Nie Tian's strength, the black-garbed cultivator wouldn't have been a threat to him, even if he hadn't known what was going on.
Furthermore, he had been prepared.
"Courting death!" The corner of Nie Tian's mouth twitched slightly. His body moved slightly and the Sword Will around him was released instantly. It was terrifying.
Boom! The vast sword intent condensed into a sword image in the air. It was like a berserk dragon sweeping across the land. That black-clothed cultivator did not even have the chance to scream before he was submerged in the sword image. Not even his bones remained.
"Useless chickens and stray dogs!" Nie Tian took a step forward and sneered. His body shook and he roared, "All of you, come out!"
"Rumble …" The roar was like thunder, and it actually contained a violent sword intent. It surged in the space like layers of air waves, violently and violently rushing forward.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! " In the surrounding space, more than a dozen figures were sent flying by the violent impact in the air. While they were still in the air, they were already vomiting blood.
More than a dozen black-clothed figures fell to the ground one after another, smashing into the surrounding boulders and cliffs. All of them were covered in blood, and some of them were even killed by the impact.
"Who … who are you?" One of the surviving black-robed men asked in a trembling voice as he stared at Nie Tian with a horrified look on his face, his body trembling uncontrollably.
They had been hiding in the valley for more than a month, but instead of prey, they had been waiting for a god of death!
The weakest of the black-clothed cultivators were late Paramount Gods, and the stronger ones were peak Paramount Gods. But in front of Nie Tian, they couldn't even withstand a single blow.
Although Nie Tian was only a late Paramount God, his true battle prowess had already surpassed the peak of the half-step Paramount God realm, and he could even fight peak God realm experts.
"Weren't you waiting for me?" Nie Tian said with a cold smile. His eyes shone with a frosty light, as if his gaze alone could kill.
"We …." The man's pupils constricted, and he was so scared he couldn't speak.
"Speak! Who are you?" Nie Tian didn't want to waste time.
The few who were still breathing exchanged glances, but didn't say anything.
"You don't want to speak?" Nie Tian said with a Cold smile. He took a step forward, and a sword intent pierced out like a sharp blade, directly cutting off the head of a martial artist.
Blood dripped like a bloody curtain, and it was very frightening.
"I gave you a chance to speak, but since you didn't cherish it, don't blame me for being ruthless," Nie Tian said with a Cold smile, and his eyes were like a god of death, emitting a bone-chilling light.
"I'll speak, I'll speak!" As soon as he finished speaking, one of the martial artists couldn't help but shout, "We are the Sacred Martial Imperial Guard of the Holy Parliament!"
"Sacred Martial Imperial Guard!" Nie Tian frowned and said coldly, "It really is the Holy Parliament!"
In fact, even if these people didn't say anything, he could guess that they were either from the Holy Parliament or the Lord of Reverse Scale.
Before Nie Tian entered the Icebound Remnant, he had almost died from the joint attack of Nangong Duxiu and the Lord of Reverse Scale.
"Did Nangong Duxiu ask you to wait for me here?" Nie Tian asked with a dark expression.
"Yes." The martial artist nodded and said with a panicked expression, "It was the Vice President who ordered us to hide here and kill everyone who entered the canyon."
Nie Tian raised his eyebrows and sneered in his heart, "This Nangong Duxiu is really sinister. I was hit by the Lord of Reverse Scale's Black Scale Curse Qi, but he still won't let me go. "
"Let's go." With these words, Nie Tian blurred into motion and left the valley.
"Nie Tian, aren't you going to kill those people?" Feng Chi asked with a frown as soon as they walked out of the canyon.
He could see that Nie Tian wasn't an indecisive person, so it was strange that he had let the Sacred Martial Imperial Guard go.
"It's not too late to kill them now." The corner of Nie Tian's mouth twitched as he sneered. Starlight Heavenly Slash appeared in his hand and he turned around and slashed down.
"Rumble!" The thousand-meter-long sword shadow slashed down, causing the entire canyon to tremble and collapse.
"This …" Feng Chi was stunned and speechless for a long time.
Nie Tian's slash had almost destroyed half of the canyon. The Sacred Martial Imperial Guards, who were already heavily injured, were now dead.
Without sparing another glance at the valley behind him, Nie Tian turned around and left.
Next, Nie Tian prepared to go to Nine Heavens City.
Half a day later, Nie Tian and the others arrived at a small city called Ling 'an. After entering the city, they prepared to rest for the night.
He and Jun Aoqing were fine, but Feng Chi's complexion wasn't good due to the Spacetime Law's suppression, so he needed to rest.
The three of them entered a restaurant and casually ordered some dishes and wine.
Nie Tian sat by the window and looked at the surrounding cultivators. He felt that something was strange. It seemed like everyone was very nervous and seemed to be in a hurry.
