"Whew, an expert at the true martial realm eighth layer peak really was hard to handle. Even using the time laws, I only barely managed to wound him."
Looking at Uncle Liu, who had crashed to the ground with his right arm severed, Qin Hao let out a soft breath.
Qin Hao had practically gone all out.
He had even used both the low-grade spirit artifact, the Setting Sun Sword, and the time laws.
The Setting Sun Sword had played a crucial role. Otherwise, even if Qin Hao could affect his opponent with the time laws, the astral qi defenses formed from true essence alone...

Still, this battle had given
