Chapter 1606 - 1607: Breaking the Formation
Sixth Grade Martial Emperor.
Compared to those at the Peak of the Hollow Void, Luo Zongyuan’s strength was, of course, not worth mentioning.
With Su Chengyu’s strength, it wouldn’t be an impossible dream to defeat, or even kill, him in a short time with the full force of the Heaven-Mending Stone.
But the problem lay in Su Chengyu’s current condition, which was far from his peak.
The impact of the Town River Sword on Su Chengyu was far greater than it appeared on the surface, and the power of cause and effect, strong in the unseen, brought hidden dangers from the shadows as well.
Even with a whole day of rest and recuperation, combined with Superior Grade Gui Yuan Dan, Su Chengyu had only appeared to have recovered substantially, which was still a far cry from his prime state.
Under such circumstances, facing Luo Zongyuan, the chances of victory were slim.
"No wonder you thought you could take me down alone, Middle Grade Martial Emperor. Could such a person not even enter the Elder Council before?"
Su Chengyu, sword in hand, narrowed his eyes as he spoke. He had assumed that Luo Zongyuan, who had relied on offering Xu Nanzhi to enter the Elder Council, was at most just a newcomer to the Martial God level, and hadn’t expected him to have reached such a state.
After probing Su Chengyu’s depth through their contact, Luo Zongyuan appeared quite relaxed, and smilingly said: "This is the Ancient Clan for you. How could outsiders like you understand the profound and strict hierarchy of my Ancient Clan? Of course, I should thank you for that. If it weren’t for you polishing Nan Zhi’s Mind State so smoothly and helping her Realm soar, how could I possibly receive so much support within the clan and break through to the Sixth Grade Realm in one go?"
The Luo Clan was not lacking in talent. They just lacked opportunities, and Xu Nanzhi was his chance to rise through the ranks.
