The ruins where the Netherworld King resides, Shanshui Hall.
Seven sword cultivators of the Xuanyuan Clan, led by Xuanyuan Che, along with more than ten cultivators from various other factions or rogue cultivators, had gathered here.
Xuanyuan Che glanced at the Netherworld King with a complicated expression, but quickly withdrew his gaze.
They now stood on opposing sides.
Otherwise, those of the same path might have become friends, sparring partners helping each other to improve.
The remaining seven sword cultivators of the Xuanyuan Clan glared fiercely at the Netherworld King upon seeing him.
"It seems his days of ease are over. The elders instructed us to kill him here and seize the Sword Bone. Now is the perfect opportunity."
"There's no time to waste. Kill him here and now to avoid unnecessary complications later."
No chances were to be given.
Such were the orders from the elders before entering this place.
