"People from the Luo Wang organization, and moreover, the Six Swordsmen of Luo Wang, one of whom is at the Grand Master level, and five others at the Lesser Master level!"
Ghost Yama had seen the other party before, so he raised an eyebrow, but didn't pay any attention to it!
Unless the opponent can instantly appear within one zhang of him, as long as he sees the opponent within one zhang of him, then the forty-meter-long broadsword is not an illusion.
"The Net?"
Everyone was shocked to hear this, never expecting the empire to deploy such deadly weapons.
These six sword slaves are the ultimate killing weapon of the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven). Unless one is a grandmaster, it is generally difficult to escape the combined attack of the six sword slaves of Luo Wang.
"Not only the Luo Wang, but the Empire has sent quite a few experts this time. There are also several sharp auras around Wang Jian, none of them are simple!"
Shi Long looked deep into the army, his eyes gleaming.
Even from a hundred feet away, after cultivating the Longevity Technique, his five senses became exceptionally sharp.
"Is it?"
Ding Peng was also full of fighting spirit; after all, it's only interesting when masters clash.
As for the 30,000 troops? He didn't take them seriously at all.
Even with rigorous training, his strength allowed him to come and go as he pleased, capable of taking the head of a general from among a million soldiers.
"What a ghost town!"
Wang Jian frowned as he looked at the intelligence from Luo Wang, not expecting the forces entangled in Ghost Street to be so powerful this time.
At least two peerless masters, and ten top-tier masters!
No wonder they dare to call themselves the darkness beneath the light!
This is only the first third of Ghost Street's forces that haven't arrived yet. If this third is added, even Wang Jian wouldn't have the slightest confidence.
Moreover, most of those who came forward this time were from the Zhang family and the Golden-Faced Buddha.
2.0 “Tell Zhao Gao that Ghost Street must be eliminated. No dark place or place beyond our control will be allowed on the empire’s territory!”
"Yes, General!"
Watching the spies from Luo Wang leave, Wang Jian looked in the direction of Ghost Street, a bad feeling creeping into his heart!
He didn't believe Ghost Street was so simple. To fight them here, especially against a large army, was absolutely unwise.
"General, Ghost Street is just a place for buying and selling things, why make such a fuss!"
"Why pretend to be confused, Your Excellency? Under the whole heaven, all land belongs to the king!"
"Within the empire's borders, there is no place for a dark land that cannot be controlled by the empire. Since you consider this a trivial matter, why not disband this Ghost Street and find another place?"
With a counterattack, Wang Jian looked at Ghost King Yama without the slightest hint of underestimation.
After all, the current gathering of experts in Ghost Street is no less than that of a top-tier force in the martial arts world.
Moreover, there are no underlings, only experts.
"General, why must you be so ruthless?"
Relocation is out of the question, and even if we were to relocate, it would only be after we have won this battle.
Otherwise, the Zhang family would lose all face, and he couldn't bear that sin.
Chapter 551 Supreme Ruler of the World - Giant Sword Repels Enemy with a Single Strike
Sizzle sizzle...
The heavy sword scraped against the ground, sparks flying everywhere, drawing the attention of everyone on the Tianji Tower.
It was still a tall, powerful figure, carrying a great sword at least five feet long, as big as a door panel, the heavy sword Juque.
"Black Swordsman! Greatsword Juque!"
Looking at the first expert to fight, the Ghost King saw that the Black Swordsman's strength was not only at the pinnacle of mastery, but also that he possessed immense strength and his Giant Sword was incredibly powerful and indestructible.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and Ghost Shadow was the first to step forward.
In comparison, his speed completely countered the Black Swordsman, and with the Ghost Shadow Sword Technique, what good was the Black Swordsman's strength?
"Ghost Protector, let me handle this. We cannot let the Zhang family lose face in this battle."
Moreover, while your Ghost Shadow Sword Technique seems to counter the opponent's clumsy heavy sword, don't underestimate this Ghost Swordsman. Countless top swordsmen in the martial world have met their demise at his hands. Softness can overcome hardness, and the reverse is also true!
Looking at the Giant Sword, Ghost Yama's heart was filled with fighting spirit.
Both are masters of domineering attacks; one is a swordsman, the other a knife-wielder, and both are renowned experts throughout the land. It would be a pity not to clash with them.
Ghost Shadow was somewhat unconvinced, but was stopped by Granny Death, who shook her head and said:
"The King of Hell is right. Countless masters have died at the hands of the Ghost Swordsman, and there are many swordsmen known for their fast swords. Do not underestimate the masters of the world!"
Granny Urgent didn't want Ghost Shadow to take the risk, so it was good that Ghost King had tested her last time.
The Ghost Swordsman's strength of 19 is not simple!
"Ghost Yama! Dragon-Slaying Saber!"
The black-clad swordsman looked at the expert who had leaped down, his eyes filled with boundless fighting spirit and murderous intent.
Unexpectedly, the first battle was fought by Ghost Yama, the leader of Ghost Street. Even the Six Sword Slaves of Luo Wang, the experts of the Empire, and Wang Jian, who were secretly watching, were all eagerly anticipating it.
In particular, the sword in Ghost Yama's hand is the legendary Dragon-Slaying Saber, a divine weapon comparable to the Giant Sword in geomancy.
"With the supreme being of the world, Juque, making his appearance, Ghost Street has to give him some face, no matter what."
Let's wait and see today whether the Giant Sword will prevail, or the Dragon Slayer Saber will reign supreme in the martial world.
"it is good!"
The black swordsman shone brightly, and the giant sword in his hand suddenly swung like a fan.
The enormous wind whipped up by the giant sword swept across the area like a hurricane, sending sand and stones flying and creating a tornado out of nowhere, leaving everyone horrified.
If anyone else were to face such a 'Sword Wind Domain', their speed would inevitably be affected by the Extreme Shadow.
Not to mention the raging winds stirred up by the giant sword, even the immense centrifugal force generated by a sweeping attack that one would experience upon entering it would force even a peerless master to avoid its edge.
A poisonous dragon has been born!
Ghost Yama unleashed a powerful slash in mid-air, like splitting Mount Hua in two.
The Dragon-Slaying Saber unleashed a ten-zhang-long, chilling blade aura, slashing towards the Black Swordsman with overwhelming destructive power.
boom!
The seemingly mighty and unstoppable sword wind tornado was instantly cleaved in two by the ten-zhang-long blade aura. At the same time, the blade aura carried a sharp edge with a destructive aura, making it indestructible.
In an instant, the collision of sword energy and blade aura roared and surged, sending rocks flying, and a terrifying and fierce residual force swept around.
As the dust settled, everyone saw the Ghost Swordsman kneeling on one knee, using his immense power to wield the Giant Sword and block this unparalleled strike!
This scene also made Wang Jian very solemn.
The Black Swordsman's strike was within his expectations. Even at his worst, the Black Swordsman was still a master at the pinnacle of skill, and close to the peerless realm.
The Giant Sword is hailed as the supreme weapon in the world. If it cannot even withstand a single strike, then the Black Swordsman would have failed to live up to his many years of illustrious reputation.
But the power of the Dragon Slayer Saber exceeded his expectations!
I originally thought the ten-zhang blade aura was an exaggeration, but it turns out to be true.
The domineering blade energy that just cleaved the sky would surely cause heavy casualties if it fell into the army, and it would not be able to be blocked by shield walls or anything like that.
"Dragon-Slaying Saber Technique? What excellent saber technique!"
puff!
The blade energy was extremely refined, and the terrifying blade force hidden within it was even more terrifying.
Even though the Black Swordsman blocked the Dragon Slayer Blade's edge, the blade's energy still penetrated his body. He could no longer hold back, and a mouthful of blood surged up, revealing his unwillingness.
Use force to subdue force!
Although the Giant Sword has a more imposing position, the Dragon Slayer Sword has been enhanced, and its domineering power is in no way inferior to that of the Giant Sword.
Moreover, with the blessing of the Dragon Slaying Blade Technique and the increased blood and energy from devouring the dragon fish meat, Ghost Yama is no less than the Black Swordsman in any aspect, and is even far superior to him.
"Concession!"
Ghost Yama did not make another move, but turned and left, which made the Black Swordsman feel even more humiliated.
Clearly, Ghost Yama didn't take him seriously at all. However, considering that he had almost been defeated in a single strike, the gap between him and Ghost Yama was already quite obvious.
For him to catch up with Ghost Yama, it's not just a matter of reaching the peerless realm, but also about swordsmanship!
The Dragon-Slaying Saber Technique is an unparalleled and supreme saber technique!
The black swordsman felt the overwhelming, ten-zhang-long blade aura most acutely during that single strike.
The heavy sword technique of the Giant Sword was entirely discovered through his own exploration. Through countless battles and constant trial and error, he earned the title of Black Swordsman.
Just like Western gladiators!
It's simply impossible to defeat Ghost Yama with such clumsy swordsmanship.
Unless he can figure out a heavy sword technique comparable to the Dragon Slayer Saber Technique.
"What a magnificent Dragon-Slaying Saber Technique!"
Wang Jian looked at the defeated black swordsman without the slightest anger.
He had witnessed the domineering power of the Dragon-Slaying Blade Technique with his own eyes just now. It was already a great fortune that the Black Swordsman was able to survive that unparalleled strike.
"Your Majesty, let Ghost Street send out its experts for the second round!"
Upon hearing this, Ghost Yama immediately looked behind him, where many people were eager to try.
In the battle just now, most of the people did not realize the Black Swordsman's strength, so they did not feel that he posed any threat to them.
"To be on the safe side, Master Lu, you should go into battle."
"Rest assured, King Yama!"
Upon hearing Ghost Yama call his name, Lu Guanying stepped forward, bearing the two great martial arts techniques of Peach Blossom Island and the Murong family.
Lu Guanying has always been known for his unique martial arts skills from Peach Blossom Island, which are renowned throughout Taihu Lake.
But with the demise of the Murong clan, he was able to unleash the Murong family's secret techniques. However, there were very few masters on Taihu Lake who were worthy of his full strength. The secret techniques of Peach Blossom Island alone had made him invincible.
The most conservative aspect of the Murong family's secret techniques is their emphasis on preserving life—
Repay the other person with his own way!
Even if the opponent is far superior to him, he can escape unscathed in a single move, without being completely tied down by the opponent.
As for escaping, that requires skill in footwork.
At least on Taihu Lake, even a Grandmaster-level expert wouldn't have a problem protecting his life.
"I am Lu Guanying from Taihu Lake, here to seek your guidance!"
Taihu Dragon Head!
Wang Jian's brow twitched. As a soldier, the thing he hated most was undoubtedly 'bandits'.
Lu Guanying, to put it nicely, was the "Dragon Head of Taihu Lake," but in reality, he was just a bandit leader on Taihu Lake, and also the leader of the Green Forest Alliance in five provinces south of the Yangtze River.
Otherwise, how could a bandit from Taihu Lake use 'Dragon Head' as his title?
However, Lu Guanying's background made Wang Jian suppress his murderous intent.
Not to mention that Ghost Yama just showed mercy to the Black Swordsman, Lu Guanying is backed by Peach Blossom Island.
Besides, the Lu family has a decent reputation, so there's no need to go to extremes. At least having a 'leader' among the bandits is much better than a disorganized bunch.
Moreover, the Lu family had an excellent reputation. Although they were bandits, they at least donated half of their red goods to disaster relief, and their reputation among the lower classes in Jiangnan was excellent.
"Which one of you is going up?"
The experts from the major empires glanced at Lu Guanying, but remained silent.
They would have joined in if it were anyone else, but Lu Guanying was backed by the Peach Blossom Island faction.
Even if the Zhang family doesn't intervene, they still have a grandmaster, Huang Yaoshi, behind them, and four uncles and 433 senior uncles who are still alive, all of whom are top-notch masters.
Add a junior sister who is a peerless master, and you'll be stirring up a hornet's nest!
