"Jinghong Divine Sword Art?"
Cao Ran furrowed his brows tightly, an unease thrumming in him.
With one hand he held the Great Cauldron aloft, and with the other he cast spells rapidly, swirling dark energy engulfing his body, its force creating a tornado that sucked up the lake water toward the firmament. As the black energy tornado's maximum diameter exceeded fifteen feet, darkness fell over the lakeside as if night were about to engulf them.
On the dim surface of the lake, Fang Wang became the most dazzling presence, his Golden Scale White Feather Robe fluttering fiercely, thirty-six swords already condensed around him.
The thirty-six strikes of Jinghong combined with the True Combat Technique had brought Fang Wang's momentum to its peak. Facing Cao Ran at the fifth level of the Profound Heart Realm, Fang Wang didn't fall behind in the slightest, even suppressing Cao Ran slightly.
