The battle's outcome had already become clear. Lu Yiye of the Nine Heavens Realm held an absolute advantage. Although Bao Shi possessed an immensely powerful physique, he was still falling short before that storm-like onslaught.
In such a situation, defeat and death were only matters of time.
Under these circumstances, Bao Shi should have retreated while the current was swift. He had already proven his strength, so there was no need for him to stubbornly hold on. With the sheer toughness of his body, if he truly set his mind on fleeing, no one could do anything to him.
Yet he clearly had no intention of retreating. He continued fighting to the death!
No one knew what he was persisting for, but that did not prevent the cultivators watching in secret from offering him their highest respect! Perhaps it was precisely because freakish geniuses like them possessed greater persistence that they could surpass others?
In an instant, the cold and aggressively sharp saber light withdrew. The clamor filling the sky turned to silence. On the battlefield, one large and one small figure stood less than thirty zhang apart.
Lu Ye lowered his head to inspect his Crag Mountain Saber, feeling a little distressed. After this great battle, many tiny chips had appeared on the blade. Fortunately, when the Crag Mountain Saber had been upgraded, its material quality had been prioritized. Otherwise, after this fight, the blade itself might have shattered.
Bao Shi's resilience had exceeded expectations, and his persistence was equally admirable. But since they had clashed under such circumstances, Lu Ye could not possibly hold back. The same was true for Bao Shi. This battle had absolutely been one in which both sides gave their all.
And the final result was that Lu Ye won, while Bao Shi lost.
