Taking the blow from Luo Qingwu's Seven Fires Sky-Reaching Sword squarely, the Blood Mane Grand Sage was instantly wounded heavily, with both his true form and his Undying Demonic Soul suffering injuries.
However, this blow had also kindled his savagery. Among the wild howls, the vast blood sea suddenly contracted, enveloping his enormous physique as it transformed into a streak of thin, blood-red light. Maneuvering past Yue Hongyan, he charged right at the one who injured him – Luo Qingwu.
Previously, the Seven Fires Sky-Reaching Sword strike had already almost depleted the Primordial Fire stored in the Seven Treasures Bamboo Fire Cane, as well as consuming much of Luo Qingwu's own Mana. However, facing the rampaging Blood Mane Grand Sage, coming straight at her, the purple-clad girl's expression was steadfast as always. Mustering her remaining strength, she did not continue to control her sword, but rather raised her left hand to her face, obscuring her eyes.
