Immortal Lingdu's words were exceedingly harsh, leaving the Yang Family Ancestor not a shred of face.
Yet upon hearing Immortal Lingdu's words, the Yang Family Ancestor fell silent instead.
For one thing, Immortal Lingdu was right. Had he not been arrogant and overconfident, dreaming of seizing the tribulation lightning to deepen his comprehension of the Collapsing Thunder Law and the Law of Lightning, how could he have suffered Li Jianchi's sword strike at death's door?
For another, the Yang Family Ancestor's strength had been greatly damaged at this moment. He could not even properly wield the strength of the Body Integration Realm. Compared to Immortal Lingdu at his peak, unless the Yang Family Ancestor risked his life in a single strike, his attacks could not possibly harm Immortal Lingdu now.
"Fellow Daoist Yang, a mere Deity Transformation Stage cultivator has limited strength to unleash, even if he burns his divine soul, blood essence, and Nascent Soul. This man has already erupted with the might of the stars several times. Even if he can erupt again, its power cannot be that great." Immortal Lingdu knew very well that even a Deity Transformation Stage cultivator had limits to the power of a life-risking strike. The Heavenly Sword Sect elder's unleashed force was clearly an arrow at the end of its flight.
As the two spoke, the frozen white light in the distorted space before Immortal Lingdu gradually faded, and the scorching heat dissipated along with it. Immortal Lingdu withdrew the spiritual power sustaining his spatial defense and flashed before the Yang Family Ancestor.
At that moment, the twenty starlight points around the Yang Family Ancestor still flickered. Yet restrained by the purple lightning, they continued to brighten and dim as they circled around him.
Suddenly, the twenty starlight points brightened once more.
