Ling Xiao's confusion grew heavier, and his curiosity intensified.

He suddenly laughed and leaped towards a martial artist who was fighting against the Skeleton General.

These six people were indeed strong, but they were different from the twenty assassins before.

An assassin's heart is resilient, refusing to yield even in the face of death, unwilling to reveal the mastermind behind them.

But these six were different. Although powerful, they were not assassins and might not hold such strong convictions.

The reason they wouldn't speak now was that they hadn't seen a threat of death.

Ling Xiao firmly believed that the stronger the martial artist, the more they feared death, because once dead, all their efforts would vanish completely.

Sword Spirit Eye·Slaughter Sword!

Suddenly, a cold Slaughter Sword appeared in his hand, exuding a terrifying intent to kill.

This killing intent didn't scatter aimlessly but pierced directly towards the martial artist fighting the Skeleton General like a sharp weapon.

It carried an overwhelming Slaughter Sword Intent, wrapped in a terrifying soul intimidation.

The Skeleton General sensed Ling Xiao's will, and the rusted long spear in his hand suddenly thrust forward.

The roaring sound shattered the void, sending waves of explosive noises.

The horrific pressure forced the martial artist, with a Yin-Yang realm fifth level cultivation, to resist with all his might.

Facing the Skeleton General, none of the six dared to relax even for a moment.

Relaxation meant death.

"Beautiful!"

Ling Xiao silently praised.

Although the Skeleton General couldn't speak, it shared a connection with his soul. One thought from Ling Xiao, and it knew what he intended to do, executing actions that pleased him the most.

That martial artist with Yin-Yang realm fifth level cultivation fully resisted the Skeleton General's attack, yet unexpectedly, a dreadful Slaughter Sword Intent pierced through his Soul Sea, leaving a terrifying death shadow within his soul.

He suddenly shuddered, his body attempting to escape.

However, the white bones emerging from the ground trapped him, denying any chance of escape.

Ling Xiao's figure appeared beside him.

Only a pair of crimson eyes could be seen from the Body of Hell, looking so terrifying and heart-stopping.

The icy blade was placed against the martial artist's neck.

A chilling coldness penetrated straight to the bone.

The martial artist, with a Yin-Yang realm fifth level cultivation, was now like shrimp on a chopping board, devoid of any resistance.

No matter how he moved, Ling Xiao could easily take his life with a swing of the sword.

His previously calm and arrogant powerful face now showed nothing but fear and trepidation.

For the first time, he felt himself so close to death.

His life unexpectedly lay in the hands of someone he looked down upon.

"If you want to live, reveal your master behind the scenes!"

Ling Xiao's bony hand lightly patted the martial artist's shoulder, speaking in a low, threatening voice.

The martial artist swallowed, knowing that if he answered a single word incorrectly, he might lose his head.

"If I tell you, can you really let me live?"

The martial artist cautiously asked.

Though he feared the mastermind behind him, at this moment, Ling Xiao posed the greatest threat.

For if Ling Xiao moved a finger, his life would vanish.

"What good does killing you do for me?"

Ling Xiao replied disdainfully, "Look at those people standing outside: the Roc Clan Leader, the Peacock Clan Leader, the Vermilion Bird Clan Leader, and the Thunderhawk Clan Leader. They all have submitted to me.

Once, I was at daggers drawn with them, yet now we're cooperating seamlessly, aren't we?

So be smart; life is precious, don't make a foolish choice."

The martial artist swallowed again, although with a Yin-Yang realm fifth level cultivation, considered strong on the White Tiger Continent,

in the Divine Phoenix Continent and Heavenly Dragon Continent, he was truly a supreme existence.

To die so casually would really be not worth it.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything I know!"

The martial artist finally chose to surrender under Ling Xiao's cold blade.

He chose life over loyalty.

It seems such things are common in the Mysterious World, nothing surprising at all.

"Very well, you're a smart person who made a smart choice."

Ling Xiao nodded in satisfaction, waiting for the answer he wanted to hear.

But just then, a strong sense of danger suddenly struck.

Without thinking, Ling Xiao's figure turned into a stream of light, dodging the attack at a speed too fast for the naked eye.

"Fengming Qishan!"

Ling Xiao furrowed his brow.

Unexpectedly, Fengming Qishan had broken free from the Ten Thousand Doors Array.

This greatly surprised him.

"Ling Xiao, you're strong, I have to admit, but I am stronger!"

A powerful aura kept rising, and Fengming Qishan's body began to undergo a bizarre transformation.

His body was filled with blue and red energies, which then fused together.

The powerful Divine Phoenix Bloodline power was released completely, transforming him into a strange two-colored God Phoenix.

The aura of ice and fire spread throughout his body.

"No, even if you control both the Ice Phoenix and Fire Phoenix bloodline powers, it's impossible to break the Ten Thousand Doors Array."

Ling Xiao shook his head.

He was very confident in the Ten Thousand Doors Array.

And Fengming Qishan was not an array expert, the possibility of him solving it was almost zero.

This guy must possess an unexpected power.

"Ang~~!"

Just as Ling Xiao was confused, a resonant dragon roar came from behind Fengming Qishan.

A five-colored Divine Dragon circled and danced behind him, its cold eyes staring fixedly at Ling Xiao.

"Five-Colored Divine Dragon? So you possess the Five Elements Dragon Soul of the Ancient Five Elements Dragon! No wonder!"

The Ancient Five Elements Dragon controlled the Five Elements, and the Ten Thousand Doors Array, in essence, was an array formed by interwoven elements.

Seemingly confusing, but in truth, it was just elemental magic.

With the Five Elements Dragon Soul, breaking the Ten Thousand Doors Array was indeed too easy.

"Having the Divine Phoenix Bloodline, and the Five Elements Dragon Soul, no wonder, no wonder you, this guy, is so powerful."

Looking at Fengming Qishan, Ling Xiao not only felt no fear, but instead became excited.

In past days, though the battles were intense, they were relatively easy, making Ling Xiao lose interest.

Today, finally someone appeared who could allow him to show his true skills.

Facing Fengming Qishan, without using the Tyrant Sky Martial Spirit, Ling Xiao's winning chance was only thirty percent.

Even with the Tyrant Sky Martial Spirit, it was only fifty percent.

He is a genius.

Fengming Qishan is also a genius!

The clash between two geniuses was exhilarating to think about.

"You still have the nerve to smile?"

Fengming Qishan's dominant aura showed again, just like the day he overlooked everyone at Dragon Forest.

Behind him, a figure clad in blood-red armor, holding a blood-red blade, emerged once more.

This was the powerful martial soul Fengming Qishan showed everyone at Dragon Forest—Twelve Immortals' Slayer's White Blade Martial Soul.

Dual Martial Souls?!
