Venerable Gu Xuan suddenly let out a long howl. The sword light in his hand abruptly changed, transforming into a black dragon that lunged wildly at Dao Lord Taichu.
Dao Lord Taichu immediately adjusted his stance. The sword light in his hand turned into a pure white radiance, like a dazzling phoenix, and slashed fiercely at the black dragon's head.
The black dragon and phoenix collided in an instant, producing a thunderous boom.
Venerable Gu Xuan's figure flickered rapidly behind the black dragon. His sharp sword swept out, cutting toward Dao Lord Taichu's back, only to be blocked by Dao Lord Taichu's sword qi.
The two pulled apart once more and resumed their standoff.
At that moment, Dao Lord Taichu suddenly sensed a familiar aura. A flash of delight appeared in his eyes, and he was immediately distracted for a moment.
Seeing this, Venerable Gu Xuan instantly seized the opportunity and swung his sword at Dao Lord Taichu.
Dao Lord Taichu abruptly raised his head, determination shining in his eyes. The sword light in his hand changed again, forming a brilliant curtain of light that blocked all of Venerable Gu Xuan's sword qi.
The two clashed once more, neither gaining the upper hand in attack or defense.
Dao Lord Taichu felt his swordsmanship becoming increasingly fluid. Every strike was like a divine weapon descending from heaven, like countless rivers flowing into the sea and gathering boundless power.
Venerable Gu Xuan also sensed Dao Lord Taichu's strength. He stopped relying solely on offense for defense and instead adopted a defensive counterattack strategy, seeking Dao Lord Taichu's weakness.
The rhythm of their attacks and defenses grew faster and fiercer, like lightning and flint.
Dao Lord Taichu's attacks became swifter and swifter. Every strike was precise and unerring, hacking viciously at Venerable Gu
