Chapter 753 - 423 Origin
Great Elder Sun Ao was afraid, something that had not happened to him since he became the Body Refining Grand Elder.
Even when facing Elder Shi Ming and Elder You Xia, he could handle them with composure; he might not be able to defeat these two Great Elders, but they could not defeat him either.
He had always thought that in the Golden Core Stage, he was the pinnacle of combat strength, especially unbeatable in close combat.
But now, he had been defeated by a Golden Core Realm alchemy master who was only at the Golden Core Middle Stage.
No longer did he harbor any thoughts of capturing Li Shiming; how could Li Shiming be so easily caught? In close combat, he couldn’t even get a touch of Li Shiming’s shadow.
Great Elder Sun Ao once again used a secret technique; this time, his target was the outer formation.
His vitality surged, and after a short burst, he appeared beside the formation’s protective barrier.
Just as he was about to deliver a heavy blow to the formation’s barrier, suddenly he saw a white lotus appear beside him.
Accompanied by the white lotus was Li Shiming, wielding the Third Grade Sword Base. Before he could launch an attack, Li Shiming struck his arm with a sword.
Li Shiming was also a Body Refining Grand Elder, and although he couldn’t completely break through Great Elder Sun Ao’s defense, his full-strength strike was enough to impede Sun Ao’s attack.
