Ilosser saw Chen Chuan standing before him with sword in hand, and the golden eyes behind his broken mask widened.
He had originally wanted to try putting some distance between them, hoping Chen Chuan might be too occupied to deal with him for the moment. But he had not expected him to arrive so quickly. Did that mean the others had already been dealt with?
He stopped.
It seemed escape was no longer possible.
If he could, he would rather have dissolved his divine aspect first. However, he had already tried observing it. Profound Sky Fire burned even the spirit; it did not need to touch flesh and blood.
The reason Chen Chuan only released Profound Sky Fire after blasting someone apart was likely to ensure the opponent had no way to resist, maximizing the results.
If he voluntarily dispersed his body, a wisp of his spirit would still remain before it could fully scatter. If Chen Chuan noticed and attacked it first, that would be counterproductive. So he could only choose to retreat with his entire body intact.
He stared at Chen Chuan, gripping his scepter tightly as dazzling Spiritual Light surged over his body.
Judging solely by their combat strength, he theoretically had no chance at all in a frontal battle. From beginning to end, it might not even take a few seconds.
But there was more than one way to fight. He possessed certain methods the other side did not know about. If used properly in tactical terms, there might still be an opportunity.
Knowing he could not evade him, he swung his scepter and charged straight ahead. Intentionally or not, the New Light Sect rift in the distance happened to be directly behind him.
Chen Chuan's gaze flickered at his actions.
