Su Mo gazed at Qin Changshan, who was flying toward him once more, a look of deep thought flashing in his eyes. In a direct collision of brute force, he simply could not match his opponent.
The massive gap in cultivation realm was impossible to bridge; even as a Primordial Martial Cultivator with fused attribute Xuan energy, he stood no chance of resisting him head-on.
However, this did not mean his physical strength was inherently inferior.
The battle soul he had been unleashing was the Sword's Battle Soul. It endowed him with the supreme sharpness of the sword, making his attacks incomparably piercing, yet he still fell short in sheer muscle power.
