Chapter 2456: Joining Forces to Slay the Avatar
The three-inch sword was moving incredibly fast. It was already too late to summon the puppet woodcarving, which was likewise suppressing the Devouring Abyss Sword, but the puppet woodcarving still traced an arc through the void and charged toward Xiang Qingcheng.
Lu Xiaotian's true body vanished from where he stood. When he reappeared, he was already more than a thousand zhang away. After flashing twice in succession, he finally blocked Xiang Qingcheng's path at the very brink of danger.
