Boom!
At close range, the sword clashed with the claws in an instant.
Majestic Power of Heaven and Earth cascaded down the blade's edge as if tearing open a breach, surging forth.
The perfectly aligned Dao Intent was severed by the Dragon Soar Sword. The man in the black robe had thought that a mere sword strike from someone in the Heavenly Human Realm could not withstand the attack and would crumble as easily as dry twigs before a storm. However, the moment they made contact, the vast power transmitted from the sword's edge nearly overwhelmed him.
The destructive impact rippled out, forcing both Li Hao and the man in the black robe to stagger back. As Li Hao retreated, he manipulated the hidden line to tug at the fish hook embedded in the man's ribs, sinking it deeper with the pull.
The pain in the man's chest caused him to raise his hand and chop down, his palm edge sharp like a blade, severing the hidden line.
