Chapter 1010

The Dao of the Sword excels at attack; whether flesh or Primordial Spirit, as long as the proper means are mastered, all can be cut down.

The Hunyuan layer's Dao of the Sword can even sever the Dao itself; a mere Quasi-Saint layer's Primordial Spirit is no difficult thing to obliterate.

Of course, all of this assumes one can land the strike.

Within the Five Directions and Five Elements Small World, the Sacred Beast Bai Hu is the master of this small world; striking the true body of the Sacred Beast Bai Hu is no easy feat, especially with this chaotic-colored sword qi—it is even harder to land.

This chaotic-colored sword qi, once released, will inevitably be sensed by the Sacred Beast Bai Hu.

With this perception, the Sacred Beast Bai Hu can instantly summon the power of the Five Directions and Five Elements Small World to evade.

Right now, the Sacred Beast Bai Hu is doing exactly that.

Just as the chaotic-colored sword qi neared the Sacred Beast Bai Hu, an invisible suppressive force suddenly appeared around the Sacred Beast Bai Hu.

The bulk of this suppressive force was concentrated entirely upon the chaotic-colored sword qi.

The chaotic-colored sword qi is formed from the Dao of the Sword and fears no suppressive force whatsoever.

Any suppressive force, so long as it is not overwhelmingly powerful, will be severed by the Dao of the Sword.

All things under heaven can be cut.

Even suppressive force can be cut.

At the very instant the suppressive force of the Five Directions and Five Elements Small World descended, the edge of the chaotic-colored sword qi erupted, severing the suppressive force outright.

Yet, severing the suppressive force still delayed the chaotic-colored sword qi for an instant.

That instant is more than enough for powerful beings like the Sacred Beast Bai Hu and Luo Fu to act.

For instance, shifting one's form to evade the attack.

At the moment the Sacred Beast Bai Hu summoned the power of the Jin Zhi Great River, his true body became a streak of light, darting off in another direction.

The power of the Five Directions and Five Elements Small World scattered around was a pressure upon the chaotic-colored sword qi, but a boost to the Sacred Beast Bai Hu, making his speed slightly faster.

Because the Sacred Beast Bai Hu's true body evaded swiftly enough, the chaotic-colored sword qi did not strike him.

Yet, the chaotic-colored sword qi was not entirely without effect.

The location of the Sacred Beast Bai Hu's true body also housed one of his avatars.

The Sacred Beast Bai Hu had distributed his avatars across all directions, including one at the location of his true body.

He needed his avatars' attacks to cover every corner around Luo Fu.

While his true body was channeling the Jin Zhi Dao River and unable to attack, an avatar was still required at his location.

Since the true body of the Sacred Beast Bai Hu could not be struck, cutting down his avatars would suffice.

At the instant Luo Fu sensed the Sacred Beast Bai Hu's true body evading, he immediately used his mind to communicate with the chaotic-colored sword qi, directing it to change course and strike the avatar.

The chaotic-colored sword qi carved a graceful arc through the air, slashing toward the nearest avatar of the Sacred Beast Bai Hu.

The Sacred Beast Bai Hu's true body devoted nearly all its attention to evading the sword qi's strike, leaving no mental capacity to track its next trajectory.

The intense sense of peril triggered by the sword qi's approach, after evading the strike, shifted into a faint joy of survival.

This faint joy temporarily occupied the Sacred Beast Bai Hu's mind—he had not felt this sensation in a long time.

By the time the Sacred Beast Bai Hu's true body regained awareness, the chaotic-colored sword qi was already close to one of his avatars.

Intense peril surged through him once more.

Yet, this time, the peril came not from his true body, but from his avatar.
