Just as they charged toward Zhao Hao in the center, General Guo Zhi of the Right Guard roared and tried to bring his imperial guards to his rescue.

They were well aware that the physical body was extremely vulnerable when the primordial spirit left the body, and it had to be done in an absolutely safe place.

But the Taoist masters wouldn't let them have their way. A group led by Elder Xuandu and Monk Jiese fought desperately to block their counterattack, preventing them from providing support.

Meanwhile, both sides were paying attention to the situation on this side, and they happened to witness two more people suddenly appear in the arena. One of them was a handsome middle-aged man wearing a loose robe, with a beard around his mouth that attracted attention. He had a smile on his lips that he thought was charming and gave people a roguish and greasy feeling.

The other person had a gloomy face, his body crackling with lightning, and a sword box resembling a tortoise shell on his back, with eight precious swords flying around him.

Guan Chouhai was taken aback. He had considered a thousand possible ways Zhao Hao might respond, but he had never imagined this situation.

Why did this person look exactly like him? Same face, same build, same demeanor, even the same clothes and weapons. Not to mention others, even he himself, and even his women, couldn't tell the difference.

And where did Zhao Hao go?

Could it be some kind of illusion?

Just then, Guan Chouhai on the other side swung his hands forward, and the Vajra Bracelets shot out in countless afterimages, directly colliding with the Vajra Bracelets he had just shot.

Ding ding ding!

A series of crisp, cracking sounds rang out as the diamond bracelets were struck and scattered everywhere.

Guan Chouhai's heart sank, because he realized that the person opposite him was not an illusion, but a real entity.

However, he really couldn't understand why the other party also had the exact same Vajra Bracelet, which was a treasure passed down through generations in Lihentian.

Could it be that the diamond bracelets aren't a pair, but four in total?

If I could also take their pair, wouldn't my strength increase significantly?

Before he could think any further, the "Guan Chouhai" opposite him suddenly spun rapidly, then passed through the center of the flying Vajra bracelets and attacked him almost instantly.

"The Great Spin of the Poison Dragon?" Guan Chouhai immediately recognized this as his unique secret technique.

However, at this moment, his opponent's hands were like drills, already attacking him. He had no time to think and could only hurriedly raise his hands to meet the attack.

Having created this move, he naturally knew its ingenuity and weakness. He quickly cut into the opponent's palms, pried the opponent's hands apart, and pulled them behind him. Then, he stomped his foot on the ground, using the power of the earth to perform the ultimate technique of "Shifting Stars and Changing Positions." This not only deflected the opponent's attack but also added his own attack power. Even if Xuan Bajing encountered this move, he would most likely be seriously injured.

Who knew that "Guan Chouhai" would flip over, his feet landing on the ground, and then his body would...

It trembled like noodles, and a tremendous force returned from the opponent's hand.

"The stars shift and the constellations change?" Guan Chouhai was shocked. This was a closely guarded secret of Lihentian. How could he know it?

His body automatically activated the Shifting Stars and Returning Stars technique, returning the power once again.

With a loud bang, the two were thrown to the sides by the enormous impact. Guan Chouhai felt a sweet taste in his throat and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

The sheer force of the impact, delivered so hastily and repeatedly, was almost too much for him to handle.

The only saving grace was that the other person also had a trickle of blood at the corner of their mouth, indicating that they were also seriously injured.

On the other side, Xuan Bajing was equally bewildered. Guan Chouhai could still doubt whether there was another pair of Vajra Bracelets, but most of his eight swords, apart from a few that were inherited from the Kunlun Void family, were obtained by him through years of searching and seeking.

How could the other party possibly have eight identical swords?

This must be an illusion!

However, a flying sword immediately sliced ​​open his sleeve, and a spurt of blood gushed out.

Xuan Bajing: "???"

Although he suspected that what he was seeing was probably an illusion, he didn't dare to risk being attacked. What if the other party chopped off his head with a sword, and it turned out to be not an illusion? He would be in deep trouble.

Left with no other choice, he could only maneuver his flying sword to meet the attack head-on.

Soon, the 16 flying swords were locked in combat. Xuan Bajing was famous for his flying swords, and he wielded the eight swords with unparalleled skill. However, no matter how exquisite and cunning his swordsmanship was, his opponent's swords could always block and counterattack in time.

He used to enjoy seeing his enemies utterly helpless against his unpredictable flying swords, but now it was his turn to be helpless against them.

He felt incredibly frustrated, as if he were fighting against himself, with no clear winner.

However, he was, after all, a sect leader, and he quickly calmed down. He had no reason to lose to an imposter. You can imitate my face and my sword, but can you imitate my way of thinking exactly?

Suddenly, he recalled eight flying swords, which then merged into one giant sword and thrust it at the opponent. The eight flying swords on the other side were knocked away the moment they touched the giant sword.

The "Xuan Bajing" on the opposite side hurriedly reached out and beckoned, sending eight swords flying back. He then raised a giant sword to meet the attack.

The two giant swords were about to collide. This kind of head-on collision could not be faked at all. The result was usually one dead and one injured. If the two people were really of the same cultivation level, they might even be injured in the same way.

Just then, a strange smile suddenly appeared on Xuan Bajing's lips. Then, in the next second, a flash of lightning appeared, and he disappeared. At the same time, the giant sword also became a rootless tree, vanishing into thin air.

Having lost his target, "Xuan Bajing" stabbed at nothing with all his might, and his entire body was instantly overwhelmed by the surging blood and qi, making him extremely difficult to move.
