Hmm?! Ning Xuan suddenly unleashed a sword strike. Behind him, several ancient trees, each so thick it would take multiple people to encircle them, were cleanly pierced through. Farther still, a giant boulder was also punctured.
Ning Xuan's eyes narrowed. My strike missed! And there's absolutely no one around.
"Interesting!" Ning Xuan laughed, his face alight with excitement.
His perception couldn't be wrong; someone had been watching him from behind just moments ago. It was completely unexpected for his instant-kill strike to miss. However, this only filled him with the thrill of a hunter spotting its prey. In that instant, Ning Xuan's gaze turned sharp as lightning, scanning his surroundings as he pushed his Six Senses to their absolute limit. At this level of awareness, he could clearly discern the buzzing of mosquitoes and the scurrying of ants hundreds of meters away. Yet, even so, he could not sense any human presence.
