Dragon Martial Sword Supreme

Seeing that the Array Formation Light Shield could not be broken, an atmosphere of utter despair immediately began to spread.

"Senior, we have never offended you, have we? We hope that you might show us mercy and let us leave."

The two remaining Sect Martial Realm third-tier leaders from the Gray Wolf Kingdom frowned and exchanged glances, then pleaded with the three black-cloaked middle-stage Sect Martial Realm experts.

"We might have let you go, but since you just said that we are determined to pursue a complete extermination, let us satisfy your prediction."

One of the middle-stage Sect Martial Realm experts clad in a black cloak, holding a bloodied longsword, stepped forward. His pace was hauntingly peculiar, bearing a strange rhythm; it appeared slow, but in reality, it was extremely swift. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of the two Sect Martial Realm leaders from the Gray Wolf Kingdom and, with a flash of his sword, beheaded both.

From beginning to end, those two leaders from the Gray Wolf Kingdom didn't have any chance to fight back; they didn't even realize what happened before their demise.

Witnessing this scene, Zhao Letian, Nalan Yun, and one other exchanged glances, their expressions grave.

If they were not mistaken, these three middle-stage Sect Martial Realm individuals were probably not ordinary Martial Artists. Their strength was likely far superior to others of the same tier.

Facing them, Zhao Letian and his companions were also entirely powerless to resist.

"Are you people from the Ghost Shadow Sect?"

Zhao Letian gazed at the three, asking in a deep voice.

When they first appeared, he recognized a very familiar sensation, just like the assassins from the Ghost Shadow Sect he encountered in War King City, all emanating a sinister ghost energy, highly proficient in the arts of stealth and assassination.

He had always been curious: who exactly sent these Ghost Shadow Sect individuals?

"Young man, you do have some insight. Correct, we are indeed from the Ghost Shadow Sect. You narrowly escaped in War King City and at the border battlefield twice before; this time, you are bound to die without a doubt."

"Boy, aren't you skilled in a quite peculiar Blood Escape Technique? Use it, let us see how you can break through this Array Formation Light Shield."

"Hmph, the ones Ghost Shadow Sect wants dead never have a chance to escape. You're no exception."

The three middle-stage Sect Martial Realm experts in grey cloaks stared intently at Zhao Letian and coldly stated.

"May I at least know who sent you before I die?"

Zhao Letian asked with a fearlessly calm expression.

Ever since he had resolved to climb to the pinnacle of martial arts, he was prepared to face death at any moment. After all, it is a path fraught with endless hardships and challenges, and no one can guarantee they will have the last laugh. Should fortune favor him to reach the peak of martial arts, he would indeed be fortunate; but if he were to fall midway, there would be no need for sorrow. At least, he would have perished on the correct path in pursuit of his dreams, and he would regret nothing in the face of a myriad of deaths.

However, today, Zhao Letian did not wish to die.

As he spoke, the power of his Divine Thought had already locked onto a simple and ancient Token silently resting inside his Storage Ring.

That Token was the very one given to him by Vice Dean Mo from the Holy Spirit Academy before he left the Gray Wolf Capital, due to his gift of three Life Extension Pills.

At the time, he thought it was just an ordinary Communication Token, but upon closer examination, he was shocked to discover that aside from being able to contact Vice Dean Mo, the Token actually contained a wisp of Mo's Divine Soul Seal, immensely powerful, and could be used against enemies in a time of crisis.

As it was a treasure bestowed by a King-level Expert, it was extremely precious, and to Zhao Letian, it was akin to a priceless treasure. Consequently, he had always been reluctant to use it.

However, today, these people from the Ghost Shadow Sect had forced him into a corner with no way out.

"If there really is no other way, he can only reluctantly use this precious token."

"The lord here would like to give you a clear understanding, but unfortunately, the people of Ghost Shadow Sect never reveal the employer's information. You'll have to depart for the afterlife in confusion. As for the three of you, get lost."

One of the assailants, a middle-stage Sect Martial Realm expert dressed in a black cloak, said with a cold smile, looking towards Nalan Yun and his two companions.

They knew that the supporting force behind Nalan Yun and his comrades was exceedingly strong, and without significant benefit, even the Ghost Shadow Sect did not wish to rashly move against them.

As soon as these words were spoken, the person from Ghost Shadow Sect casually unleashed a terrifying blast of True Yuan Power, directly flinging Nalan Yun and his two companions out of the Array Formation Light Shield.

Nalan Yun and his companions breathed a sigh of relief; if those three had decided to kill them, they would undoubtedly have died.

"Brother Zilong, I am truly sorry. These three are too powerful; this is as far as we can help. From now on, you can only rely on yourself."

Nalan Yun looked at Zhao Letian, still trapped within the Array Formation Light Shield, and said with a wry smile.

"It doesn't matter, Brother Nalan. I am already very grateful that you took action to help me today. I will remember this kindness in my heart and will surely repay it in the future."

Zhao Letian smiled calmly and spoke composedly.

Seeing Zhao Letian's calm demeanor, Nalan Yun and his companions were touched and held great admiration for him.

They questioned themselves; if they were the ones trapped in the array, they definitely would not be able to remain as composed as Zhao Letian.

In comparison, Zhao Letian's resolute will and spirit naturally made them feel immense respect, and at the same time, they felt deeply regretful.

Someone with Zhao Letian's resolve could have endless martial achievements. It was a pity that he seemed destined to die today and likely had no future.

"A future? You have no future left. Pass on in peace."

One of the Ghost Shadow Sect members coldly chuckled as a black iron chain, twisting with eerie ghost energy, suddenly appeared in his hand and lashed towards Zhao Letian with fearsome speed.

Upon witnessing this scene, Nalan Yun and his companions furrowed their brows, revealing an anxious expression.

If Zhao Letian was struck by that iron chain, there was no doubt he would die, and not even his Mid-grade Spirit Artifact Feather Wings could defend against it.

At the same time, Zhao Letian hesitated no more. He immediately took out the token from Elder Mo from his Storage Ring and was about to crush it to release Elder Mo's powerful Divine Soul Seal.

"Boom!"

However, before Zhao Letian could act, a massive sword light suddenly came flying from beyond the sky, carrying an incredibly terrifying power, directly shattering the Array Formation Light Shield set up by the Ghost Shadow Sect, and with momentum unchanged, effortlessly slew one of the Ghost Shadow Sect experts.

"A high-level Sect Martial Realm person?"

The remaining two from the Ghost Shadow Sect immediately showed horror in their eyes.

"Hisss! Hisss!"

In the next moment, before the look of terror in their eyes had dissipated, a black-clad masked person appeared with an unbelievably terrifying speed, instantly rushing over. A sword swept across, and a colossal sword light, like a swath of silk, swept across the heavens and earth, directly beheading the remaining members of the Ghost Shadow Sect.
