Shi Xian staggered as he sat down cross-legged. After taking the pill Ren Lan fed him, his nearly dried-up blood energy and essence revived like a babbling brook.
He was feeling much better.
But it looked like he wouldn't be able to withstand You Ping's third sword.
The people watching were stunned:
"He blocked two swords head-on from a veteran Domain Saint?"
"I don't know how Shi Xian's attacks measure up, but his defense is more than ten times stronger than the Divine Body's."
"Another Ninth Grade Star Emperor, even if he isn't as stable as the Divine Body!"
Shi Xian's performance was truly terrifying, leaving many of the older generation dumbfounded.
They sighed at how the times rolled on like waves, while they were no more than sand.
The great waves washed away the sand!
They were old, gradually being replaced by the younger generation.
It showed just how important the opening of the Immortal Road was. In only six short years, the era had advanced so much.
The strife was too fierce. Those who couldn't keep up were left standing still, able only to gaze across the ocean and sigh.
"Shi Xian, don't push yourself..."
A Jade Talisman appeared in Ren Lan's hand, flowing with a faint immortal radiance.
She planned to make a move herself, trying to activate the talisman and withstand You Ping's next sword.
She had glanced at Li Ye. Though his progress was astonishingly fast, he probably couldn't break through before You Ping's next sword arrived.
Shi Xian said nothing, doing his utmost to absorb the pill Ren Lan had given him.
Vast amounts of blood energy and essence began to grow within him.
Meanwhile, Li Ye's entire body blazed with dazzling golden glow, as if a god were shining upon the world.
