Elder Taoist Qingxuan's strike with his sword was the most powerful technique among the Taoist Sect's Demon-Subduing Sword skills. Its fierce momentum and formidable strength far surpassed the Eighteen Swords of Whirlwind Rain from Jiangnan's Misty Rain Tower.
The sword strike seemed to come from beyond the heavens, and in an instant, it cleaved down toward Ghost Hand's head.
Ghost Hand sidestepped half a step with his right foot, while simultaneously tilting his body slightly, narrowly avoiding the sword in a critical moment. The blade of the sword nearly touched his chest as it sliced down rapidly.
Elder Taoist Qingxuan, steeped in swordplay for decades, was undoubtedly a swordsman of the highest order. When his initial strike missed, he immediately swept his sword horizontally toward Ghost Hand's abdomen.
Ghost Hand sucked in his belly violently, bending his body forward fiercely as he retreated rapidly with the direction of Elder Taoist Qingxuan's horizontal sweep.
