"Who is the Sword-Wielding Person?"
Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, Zhang Long immediately alertly scanned the surroundings, and then immediately sensed the spiritual energy fluctuations around him. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not detect the presence of any other existence in this area besides the beast.
"Master, are there any Swordsmen around here? Why haven't I sensed anything?"
"If you could easily detect them, Xu Zhen would not have needed to come find us."
Chen Mo's eyes showed contempt as he looked towards Xu Zhen and the others who were currently engaged in battle with the beast at a distance.
Zhang Long pondered for a moment, feeling that it was due to his insufficient strength. He was contemplating how to strive harder when suddenly, the beast looked in their direction, and then a sudden burst of sword qi descended.
Zhang Long forcefully defended against it.
With this situation in mind, Xu Zhen slightly relaxed, as the beast was currently paying attention to Zhang Long and his companions, allowing them to take a short break.
"It's not a solution to keep going like this, Elder Xu. As a member of the Holy Sword Sect, you must know how to subdue this beast, right?"
Zhao Wanli heavily exhaled a breath, casually wiped the sweat beads on his forehead, and asked with exhaustion.
"Ah, if there was a way, I wouldn't have to be so hard on myself."
Xu Zhen shook his head and then swung his sword.
The sword qi burst out abruptly, in an instant, rising from the sword body, the rolling dust swirled up, enveloping Xu Zhen and his personal team completely.
"What is this..."
Lin Hao looked at the swirling dust, and his heart involuntarily increased his alertness.
"One sword covered in dust?"
Zhao Wanli looked at the swirling dust and chuckled, "I've heard that this is one of the top techniques of the Holy Sword Sect. With this technique, people enclosed in the dust can become one with it, making it difficult for outsiders to tell the truth. If used together with the legendary sword 'Ancient Relic', its effect would be similar to invisibility."
"Haha, it seems like you know quite a bit"
Xu Zhen laughed coldly, adding a look of approval to his eyes, "Any who are seen by that brute usually don't escape a beating. Let's hide for now, let the Immortal Wine Swordsmen and those unknown swordsmen hold them off. They are strong enough to weaken that brute first."
Xue Xing faintly wrinkled his brow, "Elder Xu, since we can hide ourselves with this technique, why not use it to directly enter the door?"
Xu Zhen lightly shook his head, "I've also tried it, but it doesn't work. One, the effect of 'One Sword Covered in Dust' will be significantly reduced while moving. Two, unless we take down that brute first, we won't be able to get past even the door."
The group all showed expressions of realization.
"If that's the case, then I'll leave it to them to thoroughly weaken that brute for us."
Zhao Wanli's eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze became sinister as he stared at Chen Mo.
Xue Xing did not speak, but his expression was full of approval.
On the contrary, Lin Hao frowned slightly, opened and closed his mouth, and hesitated to speak. He felt that as allies, they should join forces to fight the enemy. Planning against allies was not appropriate.
But, since the three of them had the same opinion, he feared that if he did not conform to the group now, his situation would be very dangerous.
After thinking it over, Lin Hao ultimately could only close his mouth and watch everything silently in front of him.
"What happened? How can't we see their silhouettes anymore? Did the four of them leave already?"
Long Feiwu suddenly noticed that only her group of three was dealing with the beast, while Xu Zhen's group of four had vanished. Her expression became serious at this moment.
Chen Mo retreated several steps, allowing Zhang Long to face the beast first, and then returning to Long Feiwu's side.
"It's Xu Zhen's move. The old fox used the supreme technique of 'Ancient Relic', 'One Sword Covered in Dust', to hide his figure. It seems that they want to use us as bait."
Chen Mo explained.
Long Feiwu bit her teeth and her face became dark and serious, "This old scoundrel wants to reap the benefits and even said that they wanted to unite... Chen Mo, what should we do next?"
The beast had been unable to breakthrough for a long time, and Long Feiwu had also lost focus at this moment. She turned her head to look at Chen Mo, waiting for his instructions.
"It's simple. Just find the Swordsmen."
Chen Mo looked around and said, "Brother Azure, you will have to hold the beast for a moment. Then, I will need to cooperate with Zhang Long..."
"That beast is very powerful, and I may not be able to hold out for very long..."
Long Feiwu hesitated for a moment and then spoke frankly.
"Not for too long"
"Then I'll go right away"
With those words, Long Feiwu swung her sword, charging towards the beast.
"Zhang Long, come back"
Chen Mo shouted loudly, and Zhang Long, who was in a fierce battle with the beast, obeyed the command and turned back to Chen Mo's side, "What would you like me to do?"
"Store up your energy for one sword. Wait until I find the Swordsmen, then strike him hard."
"Okay"
Zhang Long didn't say much, placing his half-broken sword in front of him and gathering energy for a decisive strike. This was his ultimate technique and the move he had practiced all his life, the deadly blow.
In his days as a nine-grade master, he could cause severe injuries to a seven-grade master. Today, having reached the second grade, the power of his attack is even more formidable, needless to say.
Perhaps, this sword strike may not be able to kill a first-grade master, but if it hits, even a first-grade master will not escape unscathed.
Zhang Long didn't ask where the person was, when to strike, he just knew that Master Chen Mo told him to kill whoever he saw, with no exceptions.
"What are they doing?"
At this moment, Xu Zhen and the others also noticed the actions of Chen Mo's three people, and they couldn't help but feel curious.
Xu Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully observing Chen Mo and the others, and then roared with laughter, "It seems they have found a solution. Gentlemen, get ready. If they succeed, we will immediately strike. Maybe we can take down that beast in one go."
"It's interesting. That guy seems to know everything."
Zhao Wanli rubbed his chin, smiling happily as he stared at Chen Mo, and secretly reflected in his heart, "If he can make our master suffer, he must be a formidable figure. I want to see just how powerful this Chen Mo is."
Long Feiwu charged towards the beast in front, Zhang Long gathered power for a strike from behind, while Chen Mo held the massive black sword with one hand and gently brushed the blade with the other.
"The Sword of Demonic Ruin, this top-grade swordsmanship. I wonder how much of it I can bring out with my current strength."
Chen Mo's lips curled slightly, and he swung the giant sword, summoning the treasure and merging it with his Dan Field. He then gathered power, activating his full-body qi and blood, causing blood-red mist to gush out from his skin and envelop him completely.
Vaguely, one could see Chen Mo's pupils turning red.
"Rip through the Sky, Bloodfall"
Without warning, Chen Mo swung his sword in the air and landed it heavily on the ground. In an instant, the entire ground beneath the blade erupted. The earth, as if a carpet were being lifted up, spread outwards and crackled endlessly.
Blood mist enveloped everything, and the sword, as if capable of destroying all life, drove the beast back a hundred zhang away. Even Long Feiwu was not spared.
Even the people in "One Sword Covered in Dust" including Xu Zhen and others also materialized in an instant.
Xu Zhen was terrified, "Such a terrifying sword strike, it broke my 'One Sword Covered in Dust'!"
Zhao Wanli's smile became even brighter, "Fascinating, truly fascinating. Strong people in the realm of physical martial arts are rare, and someone as strong as him is truly unprecedented."
"I've always thought that there couldn't be any strong swordsmen in the physical martial arts. But now, it seems that I am lacking in knowledge."
Xue Xing sighed.
Lin Hao silently stared at Chen Mo, not saying a word.
Long Feiwu was pushed back, while Zhang Long was fully focused, despite feeling the powerful impact, he gritted his teeth to stabilize his form. His eyes were fixed on Chen Mo, waiting for his instruction.
"Good opportunity."
At this moment, after seeing the beast pushed back, Xu Zhen alone charged out, intending to capture the beast.
Zhao Wanli and Xue Xing saw this, realizing that Xu Zhen, the old man, did not follow proper martial arts ethics. They both joined forces and rushed towards the beast together.
"Zhang Long, now is the time, go for it."
Unlike Xu Zhen and others, Chen Mo did not pay attention to the beast that was pushed back after striking it with one sword. Instead, he pointed to a place that faintly shone with golden light and roared.
"Yes, Master"
