Chapter 1194: Limitless Chaos, Slaying A True Saint (3)
Boom! The surging golden light lashed out in desperate fury, attempting to impede Wu Yuan's relentless march, yet it couldn't make him budge in the slightest. He traversed the river of space and time as casually as if strolling across level ground.
This impossible sight deeply shocked the three Saints of the Immortal Court, who stared in disbelief at the unfolding battle. True Saint Xiao Yao, who by all accounts should have been invincible within the River of Universes, was somehow unable to defeat a mere sempiternal lifeform?
"Wu Yuan, your physical defense nearly matches that of a True Saint? No wonder you dare to be so arrogant." True Saint Xiao Yao’s voice betrayed the astonishment churning in his heart.
How could a sempiternal lifeform possess such formidable physical defense? It defied all logic!
At the same time, Wu Yuan's taunting words had alerted True Saint Xiao Yao to a stark reality: if they continued battling like this, he would certainly be unable to withstand Wu Yuan's onslaught. His time was limited.
Even now, True Saint Xiao Yao could feel the pressure from the essence of the River of Universes bearing down upon him, growing stronger with each passing moment until it eventually exceeded his capacity to endure. When that moment came, his power would begin to decline rapidly.
Therefore, he had to kill Wu Yuan before his strength waned, or at the very least force him to retreat, buying time to devise another strategy.
"Wu Yuan, you're courting death," True Saint Xiao Yao growled. "Today, I'll send you to the afterlife."
As his roar echoed through the void, the boundless golden light that had been diffused throughout space suddenly contracted, swiftly transforming into nine gleaming golden short staves. Each staff was infused with terrifying power, wielding immense might in True Saint Xiao Yao's hands.
Boom! True Saint Xiao Yao took a decisive step forward, rapidly closing the distance to Wu Yuan. He unleashed a flurry of lightning-fast staff strikes that shattered layer upon layer of spacetime with each blow.
Close combat!
"Come on then, True Saint Xiao Yao!" Wu Yuan's eyes gleamed with anticipation as he swung his sabers to meet the onslaught, matching the True Saint's ferocity with his own.
