Time passed silently. The battle between Dao Lord Taichu and Venerable Gu Xuan had already lasted several hours. Their bodies were covered in wounds, blood flowing without end, yet neither showed any intention of stopping.
Dao Lord Taichu swung the sword in his hand. Sword qi crisscrossed the air like a giant dragon dancing through the sky, stirring up raging wind and rain.
The golden light on Venerable Gu Xuan's body erupted. Strange spheres of light condensed in his palms, each one containing boundless power.
Dao Lord Taichu let out a loud shout. The light of his sword flashed as he lunged fiercely at Venerable Gu Xuan.
Venerable Gu Xuan remained calm. He swung the long staff in his hand, and streak after streak of black staff shadows rushed toward Dao Lord Taichu.
Dao Lord Taichu moved like a phantom, flickering with afterimages that left Venerable Gu Xuan with no way to strike him.
Their battle grew increasingly violent. Every clash detonated with thunderous booms that shook the entire valley.
Venerable Gu Xuan suddenly stopped, an odd light flickering in his eyes.
Unable to understand his intentions, Dao Lord Taichu continued charging at Venerable Gu Xuan with his sword raised.
But when Dao Lord Taichu drew close, he suddenly felt an immense force blocking him. His sword could not pierce through it at all.
Venerable Gu Xuan smiled faintly. A mass of golden light condensed in his palm, seemingly containing endless energy and radiating an unimaginable terror.
A trace of fear appeared in Dao Lord Taichu's eyes. He knew that once this light erupted, he would undoubtedly die.
He hurriedly activated his Divine Ability, and his figure vanished from the spot in an instant.
The light exploded violently, making the entire valley tremble.
Venerable Gu Xuan did not grow complacent
