Chapter 1185 - 1134-1135 Sword Master of Divine Might Yin-Yang and Five Elements Magic Sword
Even after a fierce battle that left the Sword Master of Heaven Uplifting’s essence, qi, and spirit somewhat wilted, he showed no sign of retreat. His unshakeable belief fortified his will, rendering it indestructible.
He was like a lone wolf; though solitary in figure, he kept a firm gaze on the Da Xue Country Lord, seeking for any trace of weakness.
Should the Da Xue Country Lord reveal the slightest flaw, he would launch his most ferocious attack, showing no mercy.
As a swordsman who had risen through slaughter as an Independent Practitioner, the resilience and decisiveness of the Sword Master of Heaven Uplifting were extraordinary. Perhaps fighters like him possessed an even stronger will than those born of powerful sects, precisely because they had no path of retreat.
Time trickled away, and impatience became increasingly evident on the face of the Da Xue Country Lord. Yet, he still did not take immediate action.
After all, he was waiting for his opponent to give up, for him to lose his last breath. By doing so, the Lord could conserve energy for the subsequent battles.
At any other time, the Da Xue Country Lord, with his domineering nature, would have employed thunderous methods to obliterate the Sword Master of Heaven Uplifting, should he dare such insolence, just to uphold his own sovereign dignity.
However, at this moment, the Da Xue Country Lord still endured it, because his true adversary was not the Sword Master of Heaven Uplifting before him, nor the Sword Master of Divine Might, who, despite having obtained the Divine Tree’s fruit, had sustained severe injuries.
His real opponents were the other Supreme Overlords who, after seizing the fruit of the Divine Tree, would swarm towards him with intent to kill. Those were the ones truly obstructing him from possessing the fruit of the Divine Tree.
But while the Da Xue Country Lord didn’t make a move, neither did the Sword Master of Heaven Uplifting. One reason was the lack of visible flaws, and the other was that he aimed to delay, for the sake of buying the Sword Master of Divine Might more time to heal.
