“By signing the life and death agreement, each party accepts their fate. Does that mean both sides can use any martial arts, including forbidden techniques and secret arts?” The man continued to ask.
“Of course!” Billy shrugged and then turned to Otis Hum. “Thank you, Lord Hum!”
Otis Hum took a deep breath, realizing that Billy was not joking, so he didn’t insist any further. He then turned to the referee not far away and shouted loudly.
“Commander Gardner is going to challenge five opponents at once. Prepare six life and death agreements!”
After hearing his words, the scene once again erupted in an uproar. Most people wore expressions of shock on their faces.
“Ivy, did Boss get injured in the head by Icelyn Crowe just now?” Stout smacked his lips, looking at Ivy.
A crisp sound came from the back of Stout’s head.
“Shut up!” Ivy glared at him fiercely before speaking, “If Billy dares to do this, he must have confidence!”
“Ivy, those five people are all Sovereign powerhouses. Does Boss really have confidence?” Bob took a deep breath and asked.
The faces of the others also showed worried expressions.
“Bob, don’t worry!” Casey spoke thoughtfully, “Don’t forget, besides the Domineering Blade Art, Boss has other cards!”
“The Five Elements Secret Art?!” Ian exclaimed.
While the group was chatting, in the central square, Billy had already completed the signing of the life and death agreements with the five men and women.
“Commander Gardner, be careful, don’t force yourself!” Otis Hum, after putting away the life and death agreements, looked at Billy and said with great concern.
“Thank you, Lord Hum, for your concern!” Billy smiled slightly.
Then, Otis Hum and the white-haired old man turned and left. The five men and women took their positions, standing in five different directions, surrounding Billy in the middle.
“Commander Gardner, I have to say that with your courage alone, you are worthy of your title!” The man who spoke before looked at Billy and said.
“Enough, let’s get on with it!” Billy responded casually. “You only have one chance to strike. You better give it your all otherwise, you may regret it!”
“Thank you for the reminder, Commander Gardner!” The man responded before looking at his four companions. “Everyone, let’s attack and learn Commander Gardner’s techniques together!”
“Good!” The other four nodded simultaneously.
As the words fell, the oppressive auras of the five people burst forth, and their powerful Chi rose to the sky. Instantly, the entire space trembled, dark clouds roiled, and a fierce wind howled, creating an overwhelming momentum.
“Five Elements Secret Art, Gold Technique!”
Billy’s voice echoed through the entire space. The next moment, a shocking scene unfolded. Weapons, like the ones held by the onlookers within a kilometer, rose into the air as if enchanted. Thousands of sharp weapons, including knives, swords, axes, long spears, and meteor hammers, floated at a certain height, surrounding the five people in the middle.
“Kill!” Just as the five people simultaneously launched their attacks, thousands of cold weapons shot out.
For a moment, the entire space was filled with the remnants of cold weapons, each following its own trajectory towards the five attackers. Dense and overwhelming, blocking out the sky and sun, accompanied by sharp whistling sounds, swift as lightning, unstoppable.
“Hmm?!”
Seeing this scene, the five people couldn’t help but shudder. They never expected that Billy could activate such a level of secret technique! They wanted to dodge, but within a kilometer, it was full of razor-sharp cold weapons, and there was no place to hide. The only thing they could do was to launch their attacks while activating their Chi to strengthen their defensive cover, attempting to withstand this wave of attacks.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In no time, explosive sounds resounded in the air. The attacks of the five people were completely destroyed by these knives and swords, instantly disappearing. Apart from that, without exception, the five men and women were covered in numerous bloodstains caused by the cold weapons, each becoming a bloodied figure.
After another dozen seconds. Two of them had their heads cut off in mid-air by knives and swords. One was pierced through the chest by a long spear, straight through to the ground. The woman was stabbed in the forehead by a sword and fell down convulsing before becoming motionless. Finally, the man was struck in the heart by an axe, and a large amount of blood gushed out like a fountain.
“…” Lying on the ground, the man opened his mouth, unable to say a word. After a moment, he kicked his legs twice and breathed his last.
Five people, within just two minutes, were all killed.
In that moment of death, the five of theme finally understood how terrifying Commander Gardner truly was. Second-rank Sovereign powerhouses would find it difficult to contend with Billy’s move of Five Elements Secret Art, let along the five of them, five First-rank Sovereigns.
At the moment of closing their eyes, remorse surged in the hearts of the five people simultaneously. Knowing this would be the result, they would never have come to the ancient city for this job. Originally, they thought that if they could take down Billy this time, they would be heroes of the major super sects, enjoying valuable cultivation resources in the future. Given time, they might even become the top talents of their sects, reaching the pinnacle. However, the result was so cruel. This trip to the Ancient City had become their extraordinary path of no return.
Next, the oppressive aura in the air disappeared, and the cold weapons in the air all fell to the ground, producing a crisp sound.
