228: Chapter 228: The Flying Sword Emerges 228: Chapter 228: The Flying Sword Emerges With just one exchange, Everest Zuck’s palms were split from the shock, and he was barely able to stay upright by leaning on a small tree, while Tripp Greer landed lightly and effortlessly.

Yusuf Zuck could see that there was a huge gap between a beginner and a Grandmaster Level practitioner, and a Grandmaster could completely overwhelm a beginner.

The title of Grandmaster was not given lightly; how could anyone who achieved such a level be simple?

Tripp Greer spent his entire life cultivating the Evil Cultivation Method and caused untold misery before he finally reached this realm.

“Everest Zuck, did you lure me here so that I could kill you, or did you call in the army?

You should be very clear that, right now, I am invincible in the world!” Tripp Greer was full of arrogant vigor.

At this moment, he truly felt his own power, looking down on all life from above, standing at the pinnacle among the human elite.

“Oh, are you bragging because it doesn’t cost anything?” Everest Zuck shook his hands and sneered, “What you’ll face is the power of a nation, and do you think you’re the only Grandmaster Level in the world?

You’ve just barely stepped through that door.

There are countless people who can kill you.

Still think you’re invincible?

Could your face be any thicker?”

“Heh, perhaps not now, but what about in ten years, in twenty years?

No one can match my progress!” Tripp Greer said proudly, then scoffed at Everest Zuck, “You can go to your grave now.

This will be your burial ground.

But don’t worry, I’ll visit you often.”

“Swoosh~” As soon as Tripp Greer’s voice stopped, he shot out like an arrow, his Twin Blade making a swooshing sound through the air, his blade speed incredibly fast.

Everest Zuck was very clear that Tripp Greer, having achieved the Grandmaster Level, would kill him within ten moves; therefore, at this time, he had no intention of allowing Yusuf Zuck to show himself.

“Tripp Greer, even if I die today, in a few years, my friend will avenge me,” Everest Zuck said, addressing Yusuf Zuck with his words, meaning Yusuf should stay hidden and, if he wanted to avenge him, to take Tripp Greer down in a few years’ time.

“Whoosh~” Everest Zuck also charged forward.

The clashing of weapons and exchange of powerful blows, driven by their Inner Strength, made the surrounding grass rustle loudly.

Both men had powerful auras, and when those auras clashed, it resulted in an outward burst of energy, creating wind currents.

“Bang~ Bang~” After two quick exchanges, Everest Zuck’s Nine-ringed Great Blade was suddenly knocked away, and Tripp Greer sidestepped, thrusting one blade toward Everest Zuck’s heart and slicing the other at his neck.

“No good.” When Yusuf Zuck saw this, his hair stood on end; he hadn’t expected that in just under four moves, Everest Zuck was defeated and disarmed.

“Hey~” Aware that his life was hanging by a thread, Everest Zuck tilted his body backward and shouted, narrowly avoiding the blade at his neck, though his chest was left exposed.

“Thump,” Tripp Greer’s blade pierced into his shoulder, a dozen or so centimeters from his heart.

This life-and-death struggle teetered on the edge of danger.

“Bang~” As Everest Zuck’s body was tilting, and in the moment he was stabbed, he forcefully kicked Tripp Greer’s shin, causing Tripp Greer’s entire body to stumble, nearly falling to the ground!

“Haha, you can’t even hold a knife steady.

How are you going to fight me?” Tripp Greer burst into laughter.

In the past, when he fought with Everest Zuck, they were evenly matched, and he even was slightly inferior.

But now, after just four moves, Everest Zuck was severely injured, so his excitement was boundless.

The realm of a Grandmaster, unmatched in the world!

By this time, Yusuf Zuck had already jumped down, but he didn’t sneak attack from behind Tripp Greer; instead, he quietly circled around to Everest Zuck.

With someone like Tripp Greer, he would probably sense it the moment you lifted your sword, and before your sword even struck, he would have already retaliated.

So, a sneak attack also required strategy.

And the reason Yusuf Zuck circled to near Everest Zuck was that Everest could attract Tripp Greer’s attention away; that way, even if Yusuf made some noise, Tripp would assume it was Everest.

Quickly, as Everest Zuck was holding his shoulder and backing away, Yusuf Zuck had already approached from behind.

Everest Zuck seemed to sense it but did not turn around.

“Everest Zuck, you’re going to die!” Tripp Greer once again brandished his Twin Blade, lunging at Everest Zuck, who was unarmed at the time.

“Dodge!” Suddenly, just as Tripp Greer was about to reach Everest Zuck, Yusuf Zuck sharply shouted into his ear.

Everest Zuck quickly rolled to the ground, dodging to the right side.

“Swoosh—” The sound of unsheathing a sword rang out, and the next second, with a “swish—”, Yusuf Zuck, who had burst out from behind Everest Zuck using the art of Invisibility, took advantage of Tripp Greer’s unawareness and blindness, and struck with his sword straight into his chest!

“Shick—” It wasn’t the gut-wrenching, bisecting blow he had imagined; Tripp Greer reacted incredibly fast.

Almost the instant he heard Yusuf Zuck draw his sword, he paused and then retreated!

His retreat came a tad too late, so he still received a sword slash across his chest from Yusuf Zuck, an approximately thirty-centimeter wound from top to bottom that left white flesh exposed, and then blood began to gush from the wound!

“Ninja?

Did you collude with those little Japanese?” Tripp Greer was shocked because a sword had cleaved his chest, but he never saw the person from start to finish!

That’s right, there was no one, yet he had been struck by a blade!

This situation immediately reminded him of the ninjas from Japan, who could perform feats of appearing and disappearing!

And at this moment, Everest Zuck also stood with his mouth half-open in shock.

In fact, he hadn’t expected Yusuf Zuck to be capable of becoming invisible, to be unseen even when hiding!

“Whoosh—” but it was only for an instant.

Tripp Greer suddenly felt the threat of a sword edge from his right.

With an angry grunt, he swung and flicked his Twin Blade, and one blade spontaneously flew out towards the direction of the incoming sword!

“Thud—” Yusuf Zuck was hit; Tripp Greer reacted too swiftly.

As he flicked his sword, a blade rushed through the air, stabbing towards Yusuf Zuck like a Flying Knife.

Even though he was invisible, the Flying Knife still stabbed him in the arm.

“Fuck your mother!” Yusuf Zuck cursed furiously.

This Grandmaster realm was too perverse; even invisibility couldn’t prevail!

“Haha, not a little Japanese?

Then what kind of ninjutsu is this?

Could it be that you’ve become invisible?” Tripp Greer laughed heartily, feeling that since he had hit the invisible person, they weren’t so fearsome after all!

“I’ll fight you to the death!” In the darkness, Yusuf Zuck’s angry voice echoed, followed by the dagger that Tripp Greer had stuck in his arm swinging down towards him in a chopping motion.

A sneer crossed Tripp Greer’s lips.

His situation now was that one of his Twin Blades was flying at him for no reason, and since the person was invisible, it meant they were hidden and holding the knife, ready to clash with him!

Being invisible was frightening, but invisibility without brains was not; one could even say that this person who could turn invisible was an idiot.

Didn’t he realize how ridiculous he looked, brandishing the knife at him?

“Whoosh—” The Flying Knife attacked viciously, and Tripp Greer simply smiled faintly, stepping forward in a dragon-like, tiger-like stance, and then swiftly sliced down at the Knife coming from above with the blade in his hand.

“Swish—” His blade was fast, lightning-quick.

However, after this slice, he was dumbstruck for a moment because there was no one beneath the Flying Knife above his head—he had only struck air.

“There’s no one, so how can a knife fly, hovering above my head?” Tripp Greer looked up, instinctively gazing at the Floating Knife above him.

But just 0.1 second later, his body tensed, and then he screamed in horrified disbelief, “Sword Control Technique, Flying Sword!”

“Pff—” In his unbelievable fright, Yusuf Zuck, who had circled to his back, suddenly lunged with his sword, entering through Tripp Greer’s back and piercing out his chest!

“Yes, it’s the Flying Sword, swift, striking!” As Yusuf Zuck sneered, the Floating Knife above Tripp Greer’s head drew a circle in midair, then turned into a streak of light and, with a “puh-chick,” stabbed into Tripp Greer’s forehead.

“Flying Sword…” In his last breath, Tripp Greer was still muttering to himself, because he could never have dreamed that such a thing as a Flying Sword truly existed in this world!
