Bai Ziyue’s expression didn’t change, but his voice grew increasingly calm.
*In fact, at the mont he saw Zhang Yuchang, Bai Ziyue had already noticed that sothing was amiss in the way the other person was looking at him.*
*Although he quickly shifted his gaze and started conversing with the Water Immortal, Bai Ziyue’s heart had a foreboding feeling, making him inwardly tense.*
*Later, when the other ntioned missing sothing, Bai Ziyue thought darkly to himself that, indeed, just like his knowledge of the Corpse Refinent in Qinghe Town’s graveyard belonging to Zhang Yuchang, the other person also knew it was Bai Ziyue who had killed that Corpse Refinent.*
*Thus, with Bai Ziyue speaking cleverly, inwardly he knew that resolving this peacefully might be difficult.*
“It seems Junior Brother Bai is not planning to admit to it.”
Zhang Yuchang’s expression turned completely cold, no longer planning to feign friendliness.
“Is there so misunderstanding here?”
The nearby Water Immortal also sensed that sothing was amiss and hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
Having already completed the transaction, he naturally didn’t want further complications.
“No misunderstanding.”
Zhang Yuchang said, watching as all the military equipnt had been carried down by the people from Ghost Head Stronghold, then shouted, “Take action!”
In an instant, people from Ghost Head Stronghold swiftly charged forward and began attacking the Water Immortal’s group directly.
At this mont, when Zhang Yuchang spoke, his figure imdiately retreated, simultaneously launching a small sword like lightning directly toward the Water Immortal.
“You…”
The Water Immortal was furious, unable to react in ti, as the small sword stabbed right into his head.
Thud!
With a loud crash, the heavy box filled with gold he held dropped abruptly, scattering gold ingots across the deck.
The locally renowned Water Immortal also perished as a result.
“We are mountain bandits, you are water bandits, born for plundering.
When have you ever seen us engage in legitimate trade?”
A person from Ghost Head Stronghold, holding a saber in one hand, sneered and imdiately cleaved a water bandit who didn’t react in ti in half.
Others swiftly took action, rapidly attacking the water bandits.
In the ambush, most of the water bandits were caught off guard, except for a few who remained vigilant.
“Hmph!”
Bai Ziyue snorted coldly, his war saber quickly slicing through, knocking away a bandit from Ghost Head Stronghold close to him, then swiftly moved five or six ters to stand at the ship’s bow and without any hesitation, dashed toward the land.
“Killed my Corpse Refinent, do you think you can still escape?”
An icy voice rang out, followed by the small sword once again transforming into lightning and charging directly at Bai Ziyue.
Bai Ziyue didn’t answer, but at so unknown ti, a transparent defensive shield appeared on his back.
Magic, spirit light shield!
Ding!
The small sword rang as it impacted the defensive shield, causing the spirit light shield to tremble slightly but bounce back uselessly.
*By now, Bai Ziyue had no worries displaying his magical techniques.*
*The spirit light shield at the Perfection Level had extrely strong defense; even the previous invincible Corpse Refinent couldn’t break it in one strike, and this small sword, with spiritual energy fluctuation similar to his Golden Thread Saber, naturally couldn’t break through.*
Then, Bai Ziyue’s figure extended, swiftly covering almost ten ters.
Cloud Soaring Step!
Swoosh!
In mid-air, Bai Ziyue’s eyes turned icy cold, and at so unknown ti, he held an orange-red fla in his hand.
Without any hesitation, the fla shot out directly toward the wooden boxes just moved off the rchant ship.
Magic, spirit fire technique!
Bang!
The fla erupted, shattering the boxes, the intense flas continuously damaging and burning the war bows and crossbows inside.
Bai Ziyue had never been soone who only suffers losses without seeking retaliation.
“Quick, put out the fire.”
A mountain bandit’s face changed dramatically, as he hurried toward the boxes, desperately trying to extinguish the flas with his long saber.
However, the spirit fire technique burned with spiritual power, so the long saber not only failed to put out the flas but soon got covered in spirit fire, causing the blade to glow red and gradually bend.
“Over my dead body!”
Zhang Yuchang was enraged, imdiately pulling out a cloth banner, the banner’s spirit light flickering.
Instantly, the whole world seed to dim a little, as thick Yin Qi invaded.
Next, more than ten Yin Souls rushed out.
Each of these Yin Souls had a solid form and grim faces, appearing like the most terrifying evil spirits from the underworld made manifest.
Among them, three to five Yin Souls directly pounced on the war bows and crossbows, under the fierce assault of Yin Qi, they gradually extinguished the spirit fire.
However, out of twenty boxes in total, at least ten were burned beyond recognition, with the crossbows and war bows largely destroyed.
“Quick, assign people to transport these things back.” Zhang Yuchang said, beckoning again, and the small sword turned into a stream of light once more, heading toward Bai Ziyue.
“Yes!”
A low shout was heard, and soon more than ten mountain bandits, with a hint of reverence, glanced at the Yin Souls and quickly carried the still sowhat intact boxes away.
As for the battle on the other side, it was gradually drawing to a close.
The side of Ghost Head Stronghold was already a surprise attack, and with the Water Bandit Leader, Water Immortal, being killed by Zhang Yuchang in the first monts, their morale naturally plumted.
Except for a few who relied on their swimming skills to jump into the water and escape, they were all killed.
“Did you really think I was easy to handle?”
Looking at the small sword shooting at him once again, Bai Ziyue’s expression did not change as his spiritual power surged rapidly.
In an instant, a small golden blade shot out from his waist, just like a flash of lightning, directly eting the small sword.
At the sa ti, he grabbed sothing on his back.
Imdiately, a bamboo tube was in his hand.
Quickly opening the bamboo tube, Bai Ziyue imdiately pulled out a scroll from within.
It was the 24 Forbidden Dharma Artifact, the Eagle Swordsn Painting!
Bai Ziyue had been extra cautious for this mission, naturally carrying with him every ans to deal with enemies.
Therefore, even though this scroll was inconvenient to carry, he specially wrapped it in a bamboo tube, secured it with thread, and carried it on his back.
Unfurling the scroll, Bai Ziyue gently tapped on it.
Whoosh!
The intense sound of wind surged.
“Screech!”
Imdiately, the loud cry of an eagle echoed through the void.
A colossal eagle, with wings spread over ten ters wide, appeared, its body massive and majestic, its eyes sharp like lightning, and its beak hooked and connected, with slender, sharp talons capable of splitting mountains and rocks, as sharp as a Vajra.
With a spread of its wings, the eagle transford into a bolt of lightning, directly striking a Yin Soul with its sharp beak pecking rcilessly.
Poof!
It was as if a waterlon had been burst open, and the Yin Soul, almost solid, imdiately shattered.
Even though it quickly reford, its aura inevitably weakened significantly.
However, there were already many Yin Souls released by Zhang Yuchang, and quickly four or five Yin Souls pounced directly on the eagle, attacking it freely.
Amidst the ghostly atmosphere, they were fierce and ruthless.
The remaining Yin Souls, without hesitation, charged towards Bai Ziyue, unleashing various ghost magic techniques, Ghost Wall, Charm Technique, Intimidation, Ghost Claw…
attacking continuously.
Bai Ziyue’s expression remained unchanged, his hand continuously tapping on the scroll.
“Screech!”
Imdiately, another eagle transford into a lightning bolt, directly assaulting those ghosts.
Simultaneously, silently and imperceptibly, a swordsman appeared beside Bai Ziyue, its entire body pitch-black, carrying a sword box, its face indistinct.
“Kill!”
Bai Ziyue gave a light command, and the swordsman swiftly drew the long sword from his hand.
Swish!
With a flash of sword light, a Yin Soul was sliced into two halves.
After a good three to four breaths of ti, the Yin Soul reford once more.
However, the reford Soul Body was imasurably weaker than before.
Swish!
With another strike, the swordsman sliced a Yin Soul into two halves again.
Swish!
With a flash of sword light, the swordsman had already pierced through the barrier of the ghost souls, without any pause, shooting out like a flash of lightning.
“Quick, stop him.”
Zhang Yuchang’s expression changed instantly.
As he retreated continuously, he hastily unleashed a magic technique.
A black azure light swiftly condensed, then shot towards the swordsman.
At the sa ti, he hurriedly controlled the small sword that had been knocked back by Bai Ziyue’s Golden Thread Saber, rapidly shooting it towards the swordsman.
Swish!
Swish!
Two streaks of sword light swiftly passed through, even slicing the magic technique into two, rendering it powerless.
As for the small sword, it was swiftly knocked away under the impact of the swordsman’s sword light.
However, taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhang Yuchang quickly retreated, arriving at the back of several Ghost Head Stronghold mbers, his expression gloomy and unsettled as he glanced at the suddenly appearing swordsman, and Bai Ziyue, who remained calm behind the swordsman.
Even though he had long known that Bai Ziyue’s abilities were extraordinary, after all, being capable of killing his Corpse Refinent, he had so estimation in his heart.
But he never expected the opponent’s abilities to be this powerful.
Especially the opponent’s Immortal Technique prowess, that Spirit Fire Technique, that spirit light shield far surpassed his understanding of these two spells.
*Great Success, or Perfection?*
*He couldn’t believe that soone could optimize spells to that extent.*
The most crucial thing was the opponent’s scroll dharma artifact in hand.
*It sent a tremor through his heart while a hint of ardor flashed in his eyes.*
*Summoning Dharma Artifact!*
*He never imagined the opponent would possess a Summoning Dharma Artifact.*
And more importantly, the grade of this artifact was not low.
Even if it hadn’t reached the level of a middle-grade dharma artifact, it was undoubtedly at the pinnacle level of a lower grade, the combat power of those two eagles was no less than that of ordinary Inner Cultivation Martial Artists.
Along with this swordsman, whose swordsmanship was swift and fierce, even a Peak Inner Cultivation Martial Artist would find it troubleso.
The three combined, in terms of threat, far surpassed his Corpse Refinent.
*If he had such a dharma artifact in hand earlier, why would he have spent over ten years, painstakingly, in the constant company of a corpse?*
