Legend of Swordsman

They definitely couldn’t hold on, and by then, they would also be finished.

At the moment, they could only place their trust in Jian Wushuang.

However, Jian Wushuang himself felt a bit uncertain. He wasn’t sure what realm the powerful outsider with the Universe Boat belonged to.

It was impossible for him to be a Universe Master, but judging by the intensity that Guardian Yunhai had described, he might not even be an Emperor Lord!

After all, Emperor Lords weren’t usually that strong.

It was possible that he was a peak expert, or perhaps someone at the Tribulation Realm who had not yet fully grasped the universe.

His wealth was immeasurable.

He might even be able to directly help the Twin-faced Buddha achieve harmony with the Dao.

Three hundred years should be enough to reach that harmony.

Even if the Twin-faced Buddha hadn’t fully harmonized by now, he had likely absorbed quite a few benefits, and his trump cards were surely abundant.

Unfortunately, the Twin-faced Sacred Mountain was protected by an Emperor Lord-level array, so Jian Wushuang’s Thought power couldn’t penetrate directly. He could only sense that the Twin-faced Buddha was inside the mountain, and his aura was anything but ordinary, with barely the battle strength of a first-grade Origin Source Dao Lord.

But once he burned his immortal power, that could change.

If he obtained a large number of treasures, he could even condense his divine body in advance.

If he could condense both his physical and divine bodies, and if his divine power exceeded ten thousand, then he would be able to sweep across all the Dao Lords in the Ancient World.

Jian Wushuang’s current battle strength was hard to define, and killing his opponent wasn’t a problem, but he worried about unexpected developments.

If he acted, he would have to be certain of victory.

Otherwise, it might be better to sit back and watch the show, letting Yang Dingtian test what trump cards the Twin-faced Buddha had, and he could reap the rewards afterward.

There would be no need for him to personally take action—how convenient would that be?

“You three go in first!” he waved, signaling the three to step into the teleportation array.

Xue He, the old ancestor, blinked and glanced at the two beside him. He knew these two wouldn’t dare betray Jian Wushuang, so he wisely kept silent, not daring to say much more.

He stood there, in the center of the array, watching Jian Wushuang perform.

As soon as the two Dao Lords noticed their movements, they immediately called for reinforcements and charged toward them.

Leading them was Silver Flower Granny, whose battle strength ranked in the top twenty of the Covering Sea Ancient World.

She was the first to make a move, and three thousand silver threads instantly surrounded them.

From a distance of two thousand miles, she launched her attack without hesitation, her strength indeed formidable.

Jian Wushuang merely stood still, and as the silver threads approached, he took a deep breath.

His entire body swelled up.

“Beast God’s Roar!”

“Roar!”

A roar from ancient times echoed out, causing the entire Twin-faced Divine Mansion to tremble.

Jian Wushuang surged forward with an unstoppable force, instantly overwhelming Silver Flower Grandmother and the Dao Lord beside her.

“That was satisfying!”

He wasn’t trying to intimidate anyone; he just wanted to shout it out. If he did so without a reason, others might think something was wrong with him. But now, he seized the opportunity.

He shouted to release himself—just a single breath of exhilaration!

However, for the three people facing Xue He, it was a shocking experience. In one breath, Jian Wushuang had crushed two Dao Lords, one of whom was Silver Flower Grandmother, whose strength ranked within the top twenty. His power was immense, so much so that they didn’t even dare to breathe heavily in his presence.

Jian Wushuang swiftly moved into the teleportation array and frowned. “What are you standing around for? Start the teleportation!”

“Yes, yes, I’ll begin immediately!” Xue He, flustered, quickly channeled his immortal power to activate the teleportation array.

*Buzz!*

The array activated, and a shimmering multi-colored halo flickered, accompanied by a heavy sense of oppression. In the next moment, as they reopened their eyes, they found themselves at the Twin-Faced Divine Mountain.

“Senior, you’ll have to bear with following behind us for now,” one of them said.

Jian Wushuang didn’t mind and didn’t respond. After entering the Twin-Faced Divine Mountain, the three led him directly toward the Twin-Faced Divine Hall, which was where the Twin-Faced Buddha often meditated.

At that moment, tens of thousands of True Immortals were present on the mountain, and more kept arriving via teleportation. Since two of the Guardians had come together, it naturally attracted attention, and many came over to greet them. After all, within the Twin-Faced Divine Palace, the four Guardians were second only to the Twin-Faced Buddha.

However, Dao Lords weren’t limited to just the four Guardians. Jian Wushuang could sense more than twenty Dao Lords, and many more were deep within the mountain. This must be the Twin-Faced Buddha’s elite forces.

Given Jian Wushuang’s assumptions, the Twin-Faced Buddha had acquired many treasures, and it was clear that he had cultivated some subordinates. Without them, he wouldn’t be able to hold onto those treasures securely.

If he didn’t run away, it was likely because he feared arousing suspicion. Thus, he had stayed at the Twin-Faced Divine Palace, claiming to be in seclusion, while he was secretly absorbing the treasures of a powerful being from another realm.

Now that they had entered the mountain, Jian Wushuang compared the aura of Yang Dingtian with that of the Twin-Faced Buddha. It became evident that the gap between the two was vast.

It wasn’t that the Twin-Faced Buddha was overly powerful; rather, he was extremely weak. Compared to Yang Dingtian, the difference was laughable. Outside the mountain, Jian Wushuang had sensed that Yang Dingtian’s strength was equivalent to a top-tier Origin Source Dao Lord. There were rumors that Yang Dingtian had only mastered the first sequence of the God Eye technique, and while he had perfected it, he hadn’t progressed to the second technique. Thus, when he burned his immortal power, his strength could rival that of a peak Origin Source Dao cultivator.

But now, after sensing the Twin-Faced Buddha’s aura, Jian Wushuang realized he had been deceived. The Twin-Faced Buddha’s aura was supported by some sort of treasure. Even with it, his strength didn’t surpass that of a top-tier Origin Source Dao cultivator, and even if he burned his immortal power, he’d only match the power of a top-tier cultivator.

“This guy is probably pulling a golden cicada shedding its shell trick,” Jian Wushuang thought, furrowing his brow.

If that were the case, then Yang Dingtian might succeed in his revenge, while Jian Wushuang would gain nothing. He needed to calm his racing heart.

Luckily, he hadn’t charged straight into the Twin-Faced Divine Mountain. If he had killed the Twin-Faced Buddha, he might not have obtained the treasures of the foreign realm’s powerful being.

“Sure enough, this guy has more than one trick up his sleeve!”

Jian Wushuang’s thought power enveloped the entire Twin-Faced Divine Mountain, carefully scanning everything. Once he had a clear picture of the situation, he could come up with a plan. By this time, the three had brought him to the entrance of the Twin-Faced Divine Hall.

Two Dao Lords stood guard outside, which was quite an impressive display. From the expressions on the faces of the two Guardians, it was clear that these Dao Lords were unfamiliar faces.

Even the two Guardians didn’t know who they were.

Although somewhat surprised, the Guardians didn’t say much and prepared to lead Jian Wushuang inside the Divine Hall.

Unexpectedly, one of the guarding Dao Lords blocked them.

“The two Guardians and Xue He may enter, but no one else!” the guard said coldly, leaving no room for negotiation.

Guardian Yunhai’s face immediately darkened. He shouted angrily, “Audacious! Don’t you know who I am?”

The guard smirked slightly and replied, “It doesn’t matter who you are. This is an order from the Palace Master!”

Jian Wushuang didn’t push further, knowing it would raise suspicion.

“You go ahead. I’ll wait outside,” he sent a mental message to the three.

He didn’t mention that he had already attached his thought power to the three of them. His aura shielded everything, making it impossible for the Twin-Faced Buddha to detect it.

Even though there was a top-tier formation outside the hall, it couldn’t sense his presence.

Guardian Yunhai breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Jian Wushuang’s message. He had been worried that Jian Wushuang might act rashly inside the hall, so it was a relief that he chose to stay outside.
