At this moment, Zuan, who was at the very center of the storm, was in an even more difficult situation. After all, he was not a Grandmaster, and Jian Taiding was by no means a novice who had just stepped into the Grandmaster realm. How could his ultimate move be so easy to withstand?

Soon the fiery phoenix grew smaller and smaller, until it shrank to only three feet around its body.

The chilling sword energy contained within the blizzard had already left countless wounds on his body, visible to the naked eye.

However, he never retreated an inch, standing firmly in front of Qiu Honglei.

"Ah Zu!" Qiu Hong's eyes welled up with tears. She wanted to go up and help, but she immediately realized that it would be difficult for her to get involved in such a battle.

So, with a light tap of his toes, he pulled Yu Xuantao to the other side.

As long as he dodges, Ah Zu won't have to take the opponent's deadly attack head-on.

Zuan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave when a flash of cold light suddenly appeared in the blizzard.

Then Jian Taiding shot out from inside, holding a long sword.

Because the blizzard obscured their vision, by the time they could see the other person clearly, it was too late to hide.

With a soft thud, the opponent's longsword pierced through the flames and plunged into Zuan's chest.

"Ah Zu!" Qiu Honglei cried out in anguish upon seeing this, but she had only just run far away and was too late to help.

Jian Taiding snorted coldly: "You brat, don't be so arrogant!"

He paused halfway through his sentence, noticing that the other person showed no sign of panic, but simply looked at him calmly with a slight upturn at the corners of their mouth, as if some scheme had succeeded.

At this moment, his soul frantically warned him, and the image of the other party stabbing him with a sword flashed in his mind.

He hurriedly retreated, but unfortunately, the longsword was firmly grasped by the other party's hand, and he couldn't pull it out at all.

"How come this person is so badly injured but seems completely unaffected?" Jian Taiding was shocked. He couldn't care less about anything else at this moment and was about to abandon his sword and retreat when a sharp pain suddenly shot through his mind. He seemed to see a strange, large bird rush into his mind.

"Ah!" Jian Taiding screamed. Although he was not driven to the brink of madness by the other party, for a moment his mind went completely blank.

Knowing he was about to be in trouble, he quickly moved to the side.

Zaun wouldn't let such a good opportunity slip by, and immediately unleashed a flash of sword light.

puff!

A white magic seal on Jian Taiding's body flashed, clearly indicating that he had triggered some life-saving magic artifact.

Unfortunately, they couldn't withstand the attack that Zaun was poised to launch!

With a crisp crack, the magical artifact on his body shattered.

Immediately afterwards, a large cloud of blood mist exploded in front of Jian Taiding's chest. The intense pain finally brought him back to his senses, and he hurriedly used all the skills he had learned to retreat dozens of feet in an instant.

It was even faster than the first time he was in bed!

A huge scar ran diagonally from his shoulder to his waist; if it weren't for a life-saving artifact, he would probably have been cleaved in two long ago.

Without pausing, Zuan flashed forward and chased after them again.

Strike while the iron is hot and kill him!

He knew he wasn't a grandmaster after all. Although he was not afraid of a head-on confrontation, his opponent's soul was already formed, allowing him to foresee danger and fly in the sky for extended periods, making it extremely difficult for him to injure him.

So he deliberately created an opening, choosing a strategy of trading injury for injury.

His body, having been tempered several times by the Primordial Chaos, was already incredibly tough. Coupled with his powerful regenerative abilities, the same injury didn't affect him much. However, it was a huge problem for Jian Taiding!
