A towering wave of shock surged through Qingshan Daoist's heart, filling him with astonishment.
The Black-clothed Men not far away were equally stunned. They had believed Dao Lord Taichu was certain to die, yet they had never expected him to withstand their combined attack and even injure them instead.
"Kill!"
Qingshan Daoist roared and swung his longsword once more, charging at Dao Lord Taichu.
"Kill!"
Dao Lord Taichu refused to be outdone. He threw punch after punch, each one containing terrifying power. The air shook as it continuously let out piercing shrieks, trembling heaven and earth.
Both of them were immensely powerful, neither able to defeat the other.

He stepped through empty space, rapidly retreating as he attempted to flee.
"Trying to leave? Too late!"
Qingshan Daoist snorted coldly, his figure flashing across the sky like lightning as he pursued Dao Lord Taichu.
Infinite power radiated from Dao Lord Taichu's body. Each step carried him a thousand meters, but he was still slower than Qingshan Daoist. Before long, Qingshan Daoist caught up and swept his longsword toward him.
"Bang!"
A heaven-shaking sword light slashed down. Dao Lord Taichu was sent flying, a bloody wound opening across his body.
Qingshan Daoist was injured as well, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. Yet his face remained indifferent, without the slightest change in expression.
"Your strength is still far too lacking!"
Qingshan Daoist mocked.
"Hmph!"
Dao Lord Taichu snorted coldly. His gaze sharpened as streams of blazing fire erupted from his body, instantly turning into a raging inferno.
The flames transformed into fire dragons that coiled around Dao Lord Taichu, releasing terrifying heat.
