Chapter 566 - 329 Battle_2
The Mo Yu Spirit Umbrella, albeit having lost much of its spiritual essence, became his irreplaceable defensive treasure; he could not regard any other defensive treasures with the same esteem.
Most importantly, he was less concerned with defense, favoring offense instead, evident from his refinement of three Flying Swords as magical treasures.
When two Late-stage Golden Core Cultivators found themselves without an escape, they had not yet panicked before a Flying Sword each was already soaring towards them.
They quickly mobilized their attacking treasures to counter, for with their resources, having additional defensive treasures was out of the question; their only option was to meet attack with attack.
Moreover, they felt they could no longer afford to let Li Shiming launch his Thunder Skill attacks; another strike would force them to resist with their bodies, which they doubted could withstand a Third-grade Thunder Technique.
"Eh!" exclaimed a Late-stage Golden Core Cultivator about to use a secret technique to approach the Meteor Ink Boat, surprised by a sudden development.
His Flying Sword had come into contact with Shiming’s Heart Sword. According to his judgment, his Late-stage Golden Core realm should not only match but at least block the Heart Sword without issue.
Although Shiming was a prodigy, his advancement to the Golden Core Realm was too recent. Even as a Sword Cultivator, it was impossible for him to suppress a Late-stage Golden Core Cultivator’s treasure with just a single Flying Sword during his early Golden Core peak.
Yet the Heart Sword behaved strangely; as it crossed with the Late-stage Golden Core Cultivator’s Flying Sword, it bizarrely cut into the interior of the other treasure, causing damage.
The Late-stage Golden Core Cultivator couldn’t comprehend how the Heart Sword, despite bearing Thunder Sword Intent, could cause such an effect with just early Golden Core peak Spiritual Power and a not-so-strong Thunder Sword Intent.
The clash of Flying Swords was a common form of combat among Golden Core Cultivators.
With the battle experience of a Late-stage Golden Core Cultivator, it was impossible for his Flying Sword to be damaged upon just making contact, considering his centuries of cultivation weren’t lived in vain.
