The yellow-robed early rank 9 Dao King instinctively cursed as he stared at the incoming long white sword that was now just a few centimeters away from his heart.

He could clearly feel that the destructive power behind Bai Longtian's sword wasn't something that a middle-rank 5 Dao King should be able to normally exert, and that his life was truly in danger right now!

Additionally, 'young master Zhong' could tell that the power behind the red flames that had engulfed Bai Longtian's sword weren't normal, and that they most likely originated from a powerful 1-star weapon... perhaps even a peak 1-star one. If that was truly the case, then even an early rank 9 Dao King like him couldn't take Bai Longtian's attack lightly any longer, since it was powerful enough to truly threaten his life. After all, it was common knowledge that a 1-star weapon could only be refined by a formation master who was at least at the Dao Emperor realm, while the Dao inside the sword would naturally be at the same level as well. As for peak 1-star weapons... it was said that only peak-stage Dao Emperors would be able to refine them!

Even if Bai Longtian couldn't draw out the sword's full power with his current cultivation base, 'young master Zhong' clearly understood that the attack of a peak 1-star weapon in the hands of a middle-rank 5 Dao King, would still be enough to mortally wound any late-stage Dao King who took it with their bare body!

And indeed, things were just as 'young master Zhong' had guessed.

The moment that Bai Longtian thrust out his sword, he had also chosen to rouse the entirety of the remaining qi inside his dantian, as he activated the 'Dao of Fire' sealed inside his sword.

As if it had finally woken up after a long slumber, the peak 1-star sword in his hands exploded with bright red flames the moment it absorbed his qi, as the hundreds of complicated runes along with the mysterious patterns that were engraved on the sword's hilt immediately lit up.

Sensing the overwhelming feeling of danger that Bai Longtian was now giving out, 'young master Zhong's' first thought was to dodge before he attacked again with another Saint middle-grade martial skill that would finally be able to kill the wounded black-haired young man in front of him, but it was at this moment that the early rank 9 Dao King suddenly sensed something that was completely outside of his expectations.

''This bastard! What the hell is this?''

As soon as he tried to take a step back and widen the distance between them, 'young master Zhong' suddenly realized that the peak 1-star sword in Bai Longtian's hands wasn't the only unexpected issue that he had to deal with at this moment.

After all, even though it was slightly surprising, it was still within 'young master Zhong's' expectations that his opponents may have a star-rank weapon or two with them.

However, what had left the bald, yellow-robed man utterly dumbfounded was Bai Longtian's speed, which was enough to shock even an early rank 9 Dao King like him!

Even with his cultivation of an early rank 9 Dao King as well as the 'Dao of Wind' that he had comprehended, 'young master Zhong' could tell that he was actually only at the same level as Bai Longtian when it came to speed!

An early rank 9 Dao King like him who had comprehended the 'Dao of Wind', a Dao famed for its sharp attacks and its extraordinary speed... was only as fast as the middle rank 5 Dao King brat in front of him?!

'Young master Zhong' roared in his heart as he wanted to vehemently deny the reality in front of his eyes, but he knew that he didn't have time to dwell on such thoughts right now.

After all, he could sense that the heat from Bai Longtian's sword was now merely a few inches away from his heart! Forget about dodging, 'young master Zhong' could tell that there was no way for him to get out of this situation completely unharmed any longer.

Gritting his teeth, a determined expression finally appeared on the bald yellow-robed man's face, before a fierce wind enveloped his entire body as he abruptly tilted himself to the side!

..

''Tsk!''

Watching the scene from a distance, Jiang Chen clicked his tongue as he saw Bai Longtian's sword piercing through 'young master Zhong's' chest.

Although Bai Longtian had gone all-out and had managed to catch the bald yellow-robed man off-guard after going all-out, Jiang Chen could tell that 'young master Zhong's' last move had actually ended up saving his life.

Indeed, even though his sword had successfully pierced through 'young master Zhong's' chest, Bai Longtian's expression actually darkened as he stared at the spot where his sword had just hit. Even though his sword had cleanly struck his opponent's chest, Bai Longtian could sense that his attack had actually missed 'young master Zhong's' heart by a hair's breadth.

Although Bai Longtian wanted to finish the middle-aged man in front of him right away, he knew that he had just lost his chance and that he could only retreat for now!

Indeed, just as Bai Longtian pulled his sword out and stepped back, the gale that had gathered around 'young master Zhong's' body suddenly turned into hundreds of adult-sized wind blades that flew forward as they chased right after him!

Regardless of how fast Bai Longtian was, 'young master Zhong's' wind blades were simply faster as they chased after him at a terrifying speed.  Even after rousing the entirety of his qi and pushing his 'Dao of Light' to its limits, Bai Longtian felt that he was unable to widen the distance between them in the slightest!

Sensing the feeling of grave danger and realizing that it was impossible for him to escape, Bai Longtian grit his teeth and was about to release his 'Golden Buddha unique physique' to try and at least minimize the damage his body was going to take, but it was at this moment that a pitch-black figure suddenly appeared in the sky above him, staring down arrogantly like a grim reaper.

This figure that looked like a black skeleton king with two purple embers burning in its eye sockets then raised its peculiar, dark-red greatsword with both hands, before it slashed it downwards towards the hundreds of adult-sized wind blades...
