The reason Tianyuan avoided physical contact with the Black Dragon Marshal was that he knew perfectly well he was no match for the black dragon in sheer physical strength...
Having finally found such an opportunity, the Black Dragon Marshal naturally refused to let it slip. For a moment, he cast every misgiving to the back of his mind. As long as he killed Tianyuan, the entire Fallen Immortal Grounds would belong to him...
Once Tianyuan was dead, no amount of scheming would matter!!
"Roar!!" The Black Dragon Marshal tore through a heaven-shaking wave of air and unleashed an earth-shattering roar. Black mist erupted from his enormous dragon claws as he thrust both forward, as though all heaven and earth lay within their grasp. Heaven-shaking astral winds rolled outward, blotting out the sky and sun as his claws swept toward Tianyuan...
And yet.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!" Tianyuan's face remained utterly expressionless, his heart as calm as still water. He flew backward, looking at the Black Dragon Marshal as though he were already a corpse. As he retreated explosively, heaven-shaking sword rays and sword qi surged from the Silver Long Sword in his hand amid white mist. A still, tranquil aura suddenly spread across a hundred-mile radius. It was as though a space that did not belong to this world had appeared in the sky, forcibly opening an enormous spatial void. Countless white sword rays and streams of sword qi poured into it, turning the entire space into a world of sword qi...
"Roar!!" The Black Dragon Marshal seemed beyond caring about anything now. Tianyuan's expression unnerved him, but he no longer had any way back. Even if it cost him injuries and severed limbs, he had to kill this accursed Tianyuan!
In an instant!
"Boom!!!!" A heaven-shaking, muffled explosion erupted
