The black-robed man's face warped in horror as he hurriedly retreated.
Who would have thought that the other party's sword qi was just a feint? The true killing move was hidden within the sword qi!
It was this long sword!
"A high-Immortal-grade weapon!"
Judging from the killing intent emanating from the sword, it was apparent that it had already reached Heavenly High Immortal realm!
This type of weapon, every single one of them had their own spirituality, carrying a lofty and unyielding character. Submitting to a void immortal?
How could this be?
However, this was not the time to think about this. He raised his arm and quickly retreated.
"Where are you going?!"
With a frown, Zhang Xuan drove the Gods' Sword Intent in his body, and the sword in his hand immediately blurred, as if it was an illusion. It was as if a cloud drifting over from the horizon, moving with the wind without leaving any trace behind.
Puchi!
Blood splattered as the black-robed man let out a miserable cry.
Raising his head, he saw that one of the young man's arms had been severed, and blood was flowing freely from it.
Zhang Xuan did not feel happy about chopping off the other party's arm. Instead, his expression darkened even more.
He had used his sword qi, the Tongshang Sword, and the Gods' Sword Intent, all of his trump cards. He had thought that he would be able to kill the other party with a single strike, but who could have known that he would only be able to sever an arm?
Back then, even Kong Shiyao couldn't compare to him at the same level!
"You … you can actually hurt me?"
Looking at the arm on the ground, the black-robed man seemed to be filled with disbelief. His expression became ferocious, and with a roar, a long sword suddenly appeared in his other hand.
The reason why he didn't use his weapon earlier was because he felt that the other party wasn't worth it. But now, he finally understood that if he didn't use his sword now, he would definitely die.
Huala!
The sword appeared and lightly slashed through the air. Space seemed to be torn apart, and a whimpering sound could be heard. The golden sword qi extended for dozens of meters and slashed down towards Zhang Xuan.
"A High Celestial artifact?"
Zhang Xuan retreated again.
Just like the Tongshang Sword, the other party's sword had also reached High Immortal-tier!
If not for the Dongxu Gourd, there was no way he would have been able to tame it. Yet, despite being at the Heavenly True Immortal realm, the other party was still able to tame it.
It was simply terrifying!
He took out two more High Grade Immortal Pills and swallowed them.
Even though he had made a breakthrough to True Immortal realm primary stage, the strength of the other party was still there for all to see. It would be difficult for him to defeat even one of them, let alone the remaining three.
While dodging the sword qi, Zhang Xuan glanced at the other three, fearing that they would make use of this opportunity to launch a sneak attack on him. However, the three of them were standing not too far away from him, their faces impassive. It was as if their comrade who had just lost an arm didn't exist at all.
"That would be best …"
Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief and dodged the sword ray. His long sword trembled and slashed out continuously.
Dang dang dang dang!
The two swords clashed, and the surrounding air exploded. Zhang Xuan drove his soul energy, zhenqi, and physical body to the limit, and the strength of his arms seemed to be able to tear a planet apart. However, every single one of his moves was blocked by the other party. The fellow before him seemed to possess boundless strength, and no matter what kind of attack he threw at him, he would always be blocked.
His expression became more and more grave.
From the very start, he had been cultivating the Heaven's Path Divine Art, so his foundation was extremely solid. On top of that, he had undergone the Saint Ascension Ordeal and cultivated Kong Shi's cultivation technique. With his cultivation, he was able to easily defeat opponents who were stronger than him.
Yet, the young man before him, wielding the same cultivation realm and the same weapon, was actually able to match him in strength … Was he not a little too powerful?
Even though he was still a few cultivation stages beneath the young man, to be able to hold his ground despite both being True Immortals … Not even the number one core disciple of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, He Jingxuan, would be able to do such a thing!
In fact, it was hard to say whether Sect Leader Han Jianqiu would be able to do such a thing!
Without a doubt, the other party was from the Hall of Gods.
Other than the Hall of Gods, there was no other place where such a formidable expert could possibly appear.
"If we continue to fight like this, forget about killing them, we might … really die here!"
Feeling his zhenqi depleting at an alarming rate, such that even though he had consumed a Superior Immortal Pill, he was still unable to keep up with the rate of depletion. Zhang Xuan's face grew grimmer and grimmer.
The other party was far stronger than he had imagined. If this were to continue, he would run out of zhenqi, and it would be impossible for him to escape.
I have to find a loophole in this folded space as soon as possible and find a way to escape …
There were still three people who had yet to make a move, and one of them was a Heavenly High Immortal. If he did not escape now, he would surely die!
If he wanted to escape, he would have to leave this folded space.
As long as he succeeded, he would be able to blend into the crowd with Lozosy's disguise amulet, making it nigh impossible for the other party to find him.
Since the other party had used this folded space to capture him, it could only mean that they did not want others to know of his existence. As long as he could leave this folded space, he would be safe.
However, since he could not use the Library of Heaven's Path here, how was he supposed to find the loophole?
"Eye of Insight!"
Zhang Xuan swiftly scanned the surroundings.
However, he quickly shook his head.
The folded space was able to suppress even the Library of Heaven's Path. As powerful as his Eye of Insight was, it was still insufficient for him to see through the loophole.
"I have comprehended the power of space before. Even though the space on the Master Teacher Continent is incomparable to this folded space, there are still some similarities …"
Zhang Xuan tried to recall the spatial laws that he had comprehended previously before turning his gaze forward.
In the blink of an eye, under the Eye of Insight, the sealed space seemed to have reverted back to its original state.
"This area seems to be a little weak …"
Soon, Zhang Xuan noticed that the particles in this area were clearly different from the others. With a thrust of his sword, the black-robed man was forced to retreat.
Ding!
A resounding metallic reverberation echoed in the air. Zhang Xuan felt a powerful force surging toward him, and he couldn't help but retreat several steps back.
Hu!
The area where he had stabbed a moment ago warped, and a figure abruptly appeared.
"Elder Chou Huo?"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback.
The figure was no other than Elder Chou Huo, whom he had defeated in a duel with back in the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion.
Elder Chou Huo had been following behind Zhang Xuan to protect him. As soon as he saw the folded space, he tried to rush over. However, it was a pity that even as a Heavenly High Immortal, he was unable to find the folded space. It was only after Zhang Xuan struck a hole in the folded space that he was able to slip in.
Upon entering the folded space, Elder Chou Huo heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhang Xuan was still fine. "It's good that you're fine!"
After saying those words, he turned to look at the group before him.
"For a High Immortal and a True Immortal of the Hall of Gods to deal with a mere Pseudo Immortal, won't it tarnish our reputation?"
A glint flashed across Elder Chou Huo's eyes.
Zhang Xuan was still a little unsure whether the other party was an expert from the Hall of Gods or not, but he was able to recognize him with a single glance.
"Kill him. Don't leak the news!"
Instead of answering him, the black-robed High Immortal turned to look at the two True Immortals in front of him.
"Yes!"
The two of them clasped their fists.
Hu! Hu!
Without any hesitation, two swords appeared in their hands. Just like the black-robed man from before, their swords were at High Immortal realm.
The next moment, they appeared before Elder Chou Huo from the left and right respectively.
Ding ding ding ding!
The three of them clashed with one another.
"This …"
Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up in astonishment.
These two Heavenly True Immortals were actually able to hold their own against a High Immortal like Elder Chou Huo. In fact, they even seemed to have the upper hand!
Under normal circumstances, the difference between a True Immortal and a High Immortal was akin to the difference between a Great Sage and an Ancient Sage.
A Heavenly High Immortal could easily wipe out a dozen Heavenly True Immortals.
For two Heavenly True Immortals to stand against a Heavenly High Immortal like Elder Chou Huo … Zhang Xuan found it hard to believe.
However, time did not allow him to watch for too long. The black-robed man whose arm he had severed earlier charged forward once more and thrust his sword at him.
Zhang Xuan was forced to retreat continuously.
Even though the black-robed man was severely injured, his fighting prowess did not weaken at all. Instead, it seemed to have stimulated something within him, making him even stronger than before.
"Dongxu! Don't play dead! "
Zhang Xuan sent a telepathic message to the Dongxu Gourd.
"What is it?"
The Dongxu Gourd was swimming lazily in his dantian.
"Didn't you say that you wanted to eat my sword? Go and swallow that fellow's sword! "
Zhang Xuan.
Considering how powerful the other party's attacks were, as long as he could swallow the sword, it should not be too difficult for him to kill the other party!
"Alright!"
The Dongxu Gourd shook its head. "You said it yourself. Don't make me spit it out after I eat it …"
"I won't!"
Zhang Xuan.
"You want me to swallow a High Immortal-tier sword, right? I'm really going to make a move now!"
The Dongxu Gourd said.
"Cut the crap and hurry up!" Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up in anger.
This fellow sure knew how to talk.
If not for the fact that he did not know the other party's cultivation, he would have taught it a lesson by now.
"Un …"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan had agreed to it, the Dongxu Gourd shook its head excitedly.
"I'll make you pay for the humiliation you've given me!"
While Zhang Xuan was communicating with the Dongxu Gourd, the black-robed man gritted his teeth furiously. With a furious roar, he swung his sword furiously once more.
His swordsmanship was sharp and ferocious. Every single slash carried a unique trajectory. Unlike the Heaven's Path Sword Art, it carried incredible might.
Most likely, it was a move unique to the Hall of Gods.
Hu!
Just as the black-robed man was about to slash his sword down, the sight before him suddenly blurred. His grip loosened, and the sword in his hand disappeared without a trace.
"Ah?"
The black-robed man staggered, and he nearly fell to the ground. His eyes widened in shock as he hurriedly looked at the sword in his hand, as if he had seen a ghost.
He had spent a great deal of effort to tame this sword, and it was still in his hand a moment ago. How could it suddenly disappear in the blink of an eye?
He quickly turned around to look around, but there was no trace of the sword at all.
He was in the midst of executing his swordsmanship, but the sword in his hand had disappeared!
Can anyone tell me what is going on?
Where is the sword?
"What kind of bizarre move did you use?"
"Damn it, you're courting death!"
While the black-robed man was still perplexed by the situation, he suddenly heard two roars. Turning his gaze over, he saw that the swords in the hands of his two Heavenly True Immortal companions had disappeared as well. There was nothing in their hands at all, as if they had never been there in the first place.
"It's not me … Mine has disappeared as well …"
Following which, a dumbfounded voice sounded from the other side. Turning his gaze over, he saw that the sword in Immortal Chou Huo's hand had disappeared as well.
