Chapter 988: Aiming for Heights
The battle within the sea of clouds had already reached a white-hot stage by now.
Although the Sword Sect's Sect Master was a senior in the cultivation world and the number one figure in the world of sword dao, those titles were only good for intimidation. Actually trying to kill someone was far from easy.
What was more, Chen Chao was the hardest person in the world to kill.
Yu Xiyi’s flying sword was called Wild Grass. It was said that Yu Xiyi’s life circumstances were much like wild grass, but in truth, the one more like wild grass was not Yu Xiyi, but Chen Chao.
The Sword Sect's Sect Master took a deep breath. By now, his sword moves had come out in rapid succession. If it were any other powerhouse at the end of the Nepenthe realm, they would likely have already admitted defeat at this point.
But although Chen Chao had indeed taken several strikes from the Sword Sect's Sect Master and now bore a few wounds, the Sect Master himself was not faring well either. Chen Chao’s earlier slash had nearly split open his shoulder.
He was not a martial artist and did not possess such a resilient body. In a contest of endurance like this, he was destined to fall into a disadvantage.
Taking another deep breath, the Sword Sect's Sect Master suddenly smiled and said, "If we keep fighting, you will probably win. I will not force myself to hold on any longer."
Chen Chao was startled, somewhat unable to understand why the Sword Sect's Sect Master would suddenly say such a thing.
