"Crack!"
Elder Jiang stared at the shattered pieces on the ground, somewhat dazed.
Is this guy even human?
He actually just shattered the sword with sheer force!
For god's sake, it was crafted from the finest Spirit Iron, forged through forty-nine days of extraction, but he broke the sword with his bare hands, which was simply inconceivable!
Isn't this kid just at the peak of the Heavenly Rank?
Why does his aura now feel even stranger than my own?
Could it be that he has been hiding his true strength all along?
Elder Jiang suddenly recalled the heart-stopping sword thrust from before. He did not believe that the strength of the Heavenly Rank could have produced such a thrust.
And why did his eyes instill a sliver of fear in me, as if I were being stared at by the coldest gaze from the depths of hell? This feeling was utterly terrible!
When he had fought an expert of the True Path Realm before, he had felt this same sensation!
