WHACK!
The air trembled with the impact as Xiao Ming was flung backward, his body crashing heavily against the rocky ground.
Only the residual waves of Yu Jingtian's attack had forced him into this sorry state. The dao sword intent swirling around him flickered and shrunk, retreating defensively against the piercing force of Yu Jingtian's blade.
"This pressure... It's overwhelming…" Xiao Ming thought, blood trickling from the corner of his lips.
Yet, his grip on the Moon Devourer Sword remained firm. Gritting his teeth, he steadied himself and thrust out once more, his blade slicing through the air with a forceful arc.
Surging Tide!
A roaring tidal wave of sword energy surged forth, colliding head-on with Yu Jingtian's Blood Spirit Call slash.
The impact was catastrophic, a burst of light and sound that echoed across the battlefield. Xiao Ming was sent flying, his body tumbling uncontrollably before he crashed to the ground in an unsightly heap.
