That sword strike shook all ten directions and struck terror into the Universe!
All living beings paled, their eyes bulging and their scalps all but bursting.
"Gu Changqing actually drew his sword against a Sage?!"
"Heavens, what a terrifying strike! It looks capable of shattering everything in the world."
"Is the Wine Sword Immortal finally lashing out and taking a Sage head-on?"
All living beings buzzed with discussion, clicking their tongues in astonishment.
The Chaos Heavenly Sword took shape within the void, its momentum immense and its might incomparably terrifying.
One glance was enough to make all living beings feel an overwhelming terror akin to death itself.
Besides, everything Laozi had done that day had been a provocation against Gu Changqing.
Naturally, all living beings assumed that Gu Changqing's sword strike must be aimed at Laozi.
Taking a Sage head-on!
Throughout all history, this might well have been an utterly unprecedented first.
After all, although Gu Changqing had clashed with Sages before, those had been contests in other respects.
A true, head-on collision had never happened.
On Golden Ao Island, the Interception Sect disciples were shocked beyond measure. They stared at the scene, dumbstruck, no longer knowing how to react.
Inside Biyou Palace, however, Tongtian's expression changed drastically.
"Disciple Changqing, don't..."
Tongtian cried out in alarm, trying to stop Gu Changqing.
As a Sage himself, he knew all too well how terrifying that realm was.
Even though Gu Changqing possessed peak quasi-saint cultivation and combat strength far beyond his own realm,
overpowering Laozi was still virtually impossible.
More importantly, by taking the initiative to attack like this, Gu Changqing would give Laozi an opportunity to strike to kill.
Even if Laozi unleashed a Sage's killing techniques and erased Gu Changqing in one blow, it would be entirely justifiable.
