I Can Strengthen Infinitely

Chapter 241 181: The Remnant Maps Reunite, the Sword Tomb Emerges

Bam!

The night demon's spear tip collided fiercely with Gongsun Xiaozhou's saber and sword. In an instant, the ground beneath them shattered extensively, with chunks of soil flying into the sky, floating incessantly around the two.

Gongsun Xiaozhou's inner strength surged crazily, channeling into the Red Sun Saber and Blue Moon Sword, leaving only a bit within himself to suppress those poisonous Gu.

But the night demon was no less intense. Behind him emerged the image of a bizarre Gu insect the size of a steed.

It had spider eyes, its body like a white slug silkworm, centipede legs on its sides, and a scorpion tail, a truly strange sight.

The night demon's spear technique changed, shooting out in a burst, and in an instant, the virtual image of the Gu insect behind him lunged forward, enveloping Gongsun Xiaozhou with an overwhelming force.

At this critical moment in their contest, Gongsun Xiaozhou suddenly felt a pain in his chest, like a thousand ants gnawing. It seemed the poisonous Gu within him had invaded his heart.

Instantly, Gongsun Xiaozhou couldn't help but exhale forcefully, releasing all the pent-up energy he had held onto, completely depleting it.

In battles between experts, at crucial moments, it often comes down to who can maintain their breath. Whoever falters first will inevitably fall at a disadvantage.

"Not good!" Gongsun Xiaozhou exclaimed in shock, coughing up blood.

In the next breath, a flash of cold light reached his face, and a spear pierced through his skull.

"Sect Leader!!!"

Surrounding members of the Sword and Saber Sect, seeing this scene, roared in fury, eyes wide with rage.

The night demon sneered, reaching out to grab the already deceased Gongsun Xiaozhou's chest, and his clothes instantly crumbled into a pile of fragments in the night demon's grip.

A triangular yellow map piece fell from Gongsun Xiaozhou's bosom.

The night demon's eyes lit up, quickly grabbing it, and rejoiced, "Only one piece left."

Lei Gang wore a stern expression. This time, all the Demon Sect members who came were experts. As a sect leader himself, he could barely hold his own against them, with neither side able to claim victory in a short period.

Just one targeted action in Jiangnan revealed the profound and powerful foundation of the Demon Sect up north.

Gongsun Xiaozhou's death was witnessed by Lei Gang, but he was unable to assist, as his own battle was far from over.

"Hand over the map piece you have; then no one else needs to die," said the Fire Demon, cutting diagonally with the Jiao Dragon Scissors, speaking coldly.

"Bullshit!" Lei Gang, also having a fiery temper, erupted with inner strength, his entire body glowing with purple thunderous energy, instantly becoming the center of attention.

Wind Demon smilingly cast his gaze over, his bow and arrow accompanying his glance.

"Wind Demon, take this; I'll handle that one," the night demon tossed the map piece toward Wind Demon, then wielded his spear and charged the battlefield, quickly approaching Lei Gang's side.

Wind Demon put away his bow and arrow, grabbing the map piece for closer examination.

They originally possessed one piece of the map, and after obliterating the Qiu Shui family, they had two in hand.

The Demon Sect had long studied these two map pieces, yet they gleaned nothing significant. Now, with a third piece, Wind Demon couldn't help but take out the two pieces he held, piecing them together.

"It's indeed a map," Wind Demon mused internally, observing the assembled map pattern.

No one saw that amid the dark sky, a golden Life Star was approaching from outside Treasure Bottle Temple. When the star entered the temple, the three seemingly ordinary map pieces suddenly shone, erupting with astonishing brilliance.

"What!" Wind Demon was startled; such a phenomenon had never occurred before, especially with the map pieces not yet complete. How could this anomaly happen?

Three beams of light shot into the sky, instantly revealing a giant map in the night sky. However, a corner remained unfilled.

This spectacle naturally drew everyone's attention, their gazes fixed incredulously on the massive map.

Qin Yuesheng, standing within Treasure Bottle Temple, was exceptionally shocked.

The map resembled a 3D projection, every mountain, river, and forest rendered in vivid, lifelike detail.

"Is this the map depicting the location of the Sword Tomb's hidden treasure?" Wind Demon glanced at the map piece in his hand, then at the sky.

The pattern on the map piece was complex and cryptic, impossible to decipher at a glance, indicating that the map suddenly appearing in the sky concealed the secret within these map pieces.

"Quickly hand over the last map piece!"

Seeing the map in the sky, the night demon and Fire Demon felt even more excited and impatient.

The last piece, only the last piece remained, and they could complete all four map pieces, revealing the location of the Sword Tomb's hidden treasure.

In an instant, the night demon charged at Lei Gang with his spear.

Lei Gang's expression turned grim; already distressed facing the Fire Demon alone, now another Demon Sect expert had joined.

Under the dual pressure from these two, how could he have any chance of survival? It was clearly a guaranteed defeat.

With Gongsun Xiaozhou dead, Master Bao Jing preoccupied, they found themselves in a desperate situation.
