The second strike descended.
The saber's brilliant aura surged to a length of eighty feet. Though not reaching the hundred-foot length that had once heavily injured Li Xuance, this attack was more condensed, more bone-chillingly cold. Where the blade pointed, the very twilight seemed to be torn asunder, leaving a black rift in its wake.
Zhou Chengzong's soul nearly fled his body. No longer daring to hold anything back, he roared and violently activated a Secret Technique.
In an instant, Zhou Chengzong's face flushed blood-red as fine beads of blood seeped from every pore. His aura abruptly surged by thirty percent.
With a flick of his single whip, Earth Fiend energy poured into it like a furious dragon returning to the sea. The body of the whip hummed and trembled, seeming to transform into the phantom of a colossal, crimson-and-black python that roared as it lunged to devour the saber's brilliant aura.
BOOM—!!!
