Jiang Shuoxue's expression sharpened as she said:
"This Luo Hong really is no simple opponent."
Elder Yun Jiuyi also nodded slightly, his expression grave.
"This young man's combat strength may already surpass that of the three Exalted Venerables."
Boom...!!
As they spoke, another ear-splitting explosion rang out. The three clones actually merged into one, transforming into an enormous blade shadow that slashed savagely toward Zhao Qian's Geng Metal Sword Bone body.
Bang-!!
Amid the tremendous crash, the blow actually sent Zhao Qian's Geng Metal Sword Bone body staggering several steps.
Luo Hong immediately jeered loudly:
"All strength on the outside, hollow within!"
With that, the three clones once again joined forces and charged at Zhao Qian's Geng Metal Sword Bone body.
At the sight, Xiao Huang asked in bewilderment:
"Elder Yun, surely Sect Master Zhao Qian's ultimate Dao Geng Metal Sword Bone should have more combat strength than this?"
Yun Jiuyi frowned as well.
"The greatest strength of the Geng Metal Sword Bone lies in its Geng Metal killing power. That is even more true of an ultimate Dao Geng Metal Sword Bone."
"But right now, Zhao Qian is resisting Luo Hong with nothing but the Geng Metal Sword Bone itself."
"That is indeed rather strange."
Jiang Fu, who had remained silent beside them, suddenly frowned.
"If you view what is happening as Zhao Qian testing that Geng Metal Sword Bone body, perhaps everything makes sense."
The others froze for a moment, then all revealed looks of disbelief.
Boom!
Just then, Luo Hong's Three Corpses clones once again merged into one, transforming into a blade shadow that slashed toward Zhao Qian.
This time, Zhao Qian's Geng Metal body still did not strike back. He merely raised his left arm to block.
Bang...!!
The result was the same as before. Though
