Chapter 318: Victory and Defeat, Story [Third Update!]
Zixie Qing nodded slightly, "I understand that you want to help Bu Liqing."
At this moment, Bu Liqing was soaring forward on his sword. Zixie Qing smiled faintly, shook her sleeve, and suddenly extended a small hand as white as jade, palm raised like a knife!
Then, she sent out a distant palm strike.
When this palm was struck, although Zixie Qing appeared to be nonchalant, Chu Yang clearly saw a faint purple aura rising on her face!
Chu Yang's heart sank; this palm strike was probably not easy for Zixie Qing either!
To shatter the peak of this era with a single palm without being detected—one can imagine the difficulty involved.
A faint purple aura was released with Zixie Qing's jade-like palm, transforming into a flowing light that quickly chased after Bu Liqing, disappearing without a trace!
As the saying goes: time waits for no one!
At this moment, the Law Sovereign and Bu Liqing were clashing fiercely, their countless illusions colliding with a series of 'bang-bang-bang' sounds, mutually canceling each other out, yet neither retreated!
Bu Liqing shouted loudly, his sword wielding the momentum of a thousand thunders, swinging it like a big knife, gripping it with both hands and striking fiercely downwards!
When this sword came out, it was as if all the stars in the sky had closed their eyes in fear; the world fell into darkness! An unmatched dominance suddenly sucked the air from the entire space, tilting everything towards the center!
"A good sword!" The Law Sovereign's expression hardened, and both fists shot out!
As his fists advanced with repressed energy, everything they passed, including space, was utterly shattered and pushed away!
The power was still drastically different from Bu Liqing's!
You collect, I release! You push in, I move out—no matter what, an absolute confrontation!
Both of them maintained calm expressions, serene.
At this moment, four pairs of eyes met across the space, all equally cold and constant! Expressionless!
Yet both knew that this strike would determine victory and defeat! Either both would suffer or one would survive!
By now, they both understood each other's foundations: they were evenly matched! Continuing like this for a year wouldn't change a thing.
Thus, neither wanted to drag it out any longer; they would go all out for a quick resolution! The faster, the better!
As the saying goes: time waits for no one.
One sword, two fists!
They collided with a thunderous roar!
However, neither realized that a shadowless, formless, fine palm force had leaped ahead of Bu Liqing's sword and met the Law Sovereign's right fist!
Zixie Qing stood in the high sky with her hands behind her back, smiling faintly as she murmured, "I let you hold the power!"
Surprise flashed in the Law Sovereign's eyes, quickly turning into shock, then fear, followed by utter amazement! He felt a mysterious force suddenly collide with him before Bu Liqing's sword.
Bu Liqing had actually held back?
He still had such strength?
The Law Sovereign had no time to think it through, desperately trying to hold on! Because… at this moment, the power that had filled his body was suppressed by this mysterious force, unable to be unleashed!
Yet, his fists had already been thrown; there was no pulling back!
As contact was imminent, he had no way to evade!
In this moment, the Law Sovereign let out a crazy roar, forcefully mobilizing his inner strength to counterattack! Simultaneously, he desperately turned his body sideways, meeting Bu Liqing's sword with his left fist!
His right fist was fully devoted to countering that mysterious power.
Boom!
The Law Sovereign's body shook violently, a flush suddenly appearing on his face, with fine blood seeping from all seven orifices, just as Bu Liqing's sword came charging at him.
It seemed simultaneous, but in reality, the Law Sovereign had created a slight distance!
It was this slight distance that ultimately made it not simultaneous!
The Law Sovereign gasped sharply, retracting his left fist and releasing it, colliding fiercely with Bu Liqing's sword!
