Chapter 190 - 145: Fifth Transition Golden Core!
He was dead.
Gu Wen was certain of this as the residual image of the Immortal Sword slowly faded from his hands, a surge of intense weakness emerging.
He still had much mana left, but a one-off consumption that was too large could damage his meridians. The residual image of the Immortal Sword, the scabbard of the Immortal Sword, or the True Sword Dao—using any one of them individually would be fine, but combining the three would place an immense burden on his meridians.
At the same time, the power was also tremendous; Suan Ren was at the Fifth Level of Dao Foundation, and his Divine Beast bloodline was inherently not weak. Judged by his aura alone, he should be more or less on par with Chi Yu Zi.
Yet with one strike from Gu Wen, he had no power to resist and directly transcended the Third Level of Dao Foundation.
Part of it was due to Chi Yu Zi temporarily taking control, but it was probably only the Immortal Sword that held such power, and only the Immortal Sword that could slice and kill instantly.
The Immortal Sword could cut through anything, and to slice anything was to wear it down.
With the power of the residual image of the Immortal Sword, I now have the strength to kill enemies across three ranks, even stronger than I had imagined. How splendid would the true Immortal Sword be?
Gu Wen couldn’t help but yearn for it, wondering if the true Immortal Sword could deal actual damage, ignoring all defenses, and injuring anyone of any realm upon contact.
If the residual image of the Immortal Sword was so, it was unreasonable for the sword itself to not be capable.
