In the dark of the night, strong winds arose, causing the forest to sway violently.
The temple's firelight flickered with the wind, and dust billowed up from the mountain below.
Li Ya was smashed into the mountain forest, his body breaking through a mountain wall. Dust quickly engulfed him as his North Sea Heavy Sword flew several hundred feet away, embedding itself in a thousand-year-old tree and splitting its trunk.
Zhang Buku floated in mid-air, holding a stone axe in one hand, looking down nervously, and asked, "Fellow Daoist Li Ya, are you all right?"
Li Ya's sword intent was incredibly strong, forcing him to wield the Heaven-Splitting Divine Axe. At the moment he struck down Li Ya, he felt joy, but his heart was quickly filled with anxiety, fearing he had killed Li Ya.
The two had met by chance, and he never killed those with whom he had no enmity or hatred.
