Long ago, Gao Xian's speed had already reached fifty li per breath.
After the Primordial Heaven Wheel rose to the master realm, his physical body became even more formidable, and the wheel's power greatly increased as well. This raised his flight speed by another twenty percent, reaching the terrifying speed of sixty li per breath.

The Five Elements Wuji Sword appeared to be thrusting straight at Yang Kangtian, but Gao Xian's speed, direction, and angle were constantly shifting. This made his flight path extraordinarily elusive and bizarre.
