CRACK!
The tip of the sword pierced the black-clad elder's body, but no blood flowed. It only penetrated about an inch, unable to go any deeper.
"Huh?" A trace of astonishment flashed in Ling Chen's eyes. My sword failed to penetrate. It seems this black-clad elder must have used some powerful secret technique.
His sword having failed to penetrate, Ling Chen became vigilant. His figure suddenly exploded, transforming into four shadows that scattered.
The black-clad elder's full-powered claw strike, however, only shredded a few of the shadows.
Ling Chen was shocked, but the black-clad elder was even more so. A sword had pierced him three inches deep, nearly reaching his heart; how could he not be startled? Most terrifyingly, his opponent had sensed the danger and retreated beforehand. This meant that, given the chance, a single sword strike could have pierced his heart.
Thank God. It seems his sword qi can't break my defense. I can take this opportunity to kill him!
