As the sword-bearers readied themselves for action, their blades shimmered with an ethereal night light. One sword, fueled by an unleashed elemental force, flickered with an ominous flame.
Renxian drew a steadying breath, seizing the opportunity to showcase his martial prowess in a live encounter with fellow humans. Despite wielding a katana, he hesitated, fearing its lethal potential. Deep within, a reluctance to inflict harm lingered, an inner struggle against the prospect of taking a life.
Aware that the seriousness of the situation demanded decisive action, Renxian set aside his reluctance. Taking a swift stance, he extended his arms and widened his stance, ensuring optimal balance. His aura unfolded, a tangible force felt by all the cultivators present.
