The three-section sword thrust out by the Crimson Saint Envoy immediately split into three upon contact with the Azure Void True Qi, transforming into a crimson whip that arced towards Wang Hao's back.
Wang Hao remained calm and charged forward, his left hand forming a fist as he struck at the Crimson Saint Envoy's chest.
As the Crimson Saintess saw Wang Hao rushing towards her, she felt an overwhelming force surge towards her chest, causing the red veil on her body to billow backward.
"That's fast."
Knowing that he was not as fast as Wang Hao, the Crimson Saint Envoy did not dodge, and took out a Bagua compass from his sleeve.
As she channeled her inner energy into the compass, it spun rapidly, emitting a black and white radiance that revealed a giant black and white Bagua (Eight Trigrams) light seal, with two yin-yang fish spinning rapidly in the center of the seal.
"Bang!"
Wang Hao's palm strike landed on the center of the black and white Bagua light seal, instantly creating ripples that transmitted powerful energy.
On the water's surface, waves surged wildly.
Even standing on the crest of the wave, the Crimson Saint Envoy was sent flying backward by the force of the palm strike.
"Having reached the Golden Core Realm, Wang Hao's strength has become so terrifying. If it weren't for the Eight Trigrams Cloud Sealing Disc, I'm afraid that palm strike just now would have severely injured him." The Crimson Saint Envoy was deeply shocked, his alluring eyes fixed on Wang Hao, and he began to re-examine the young man before him.
The Eight Trigrams Sealing Cloud Disc is a tenth-tier True Martial Treasure, possessing immense power capable of blocking attacks from a Great Perfection Heaven Realm martial artist, yet it almost couldn't withstand a single palm strike from Wang Hao.
It must be said that as one of the Seven Fiends of the Black Market First-Class Hall, the Crimson Saint Envoy possesses many powerful weapons, any one of which could be the ultimate foundation of a force.
Even that three-section sword was a top-tier spiritual weapon.
"It's only been a little over a month, and you've already become so powerful. If I had known this would happen, I should have killed you at all costs back then." The Crimson Saintess slightly raised her eyes, her eyelashes curled up, and she had a harmless and charming appearance, but her words gave off a chilling murderous aura.
The next moment, the Crimson Saint Envoy struck again, his speed as fast as lightning, rushing above Wang Hao's head and thrusting out a sword. In an instant, thirty-six sword shadows rushed out simultaneously.
"Illusory Heaven Sword Technique".
It is another high-grade spirit-level sword technique, created by a half-saint. It is not only powerful, but also incorporates illusion magic into the sword technique.
If a martial artist has slightly lower mental strength, they probably wouldn't even have time to react before their body is pierced by the sword energy.
Although the Crimson Saintess is also at the early stage of the Heavenly Realm, she has been in the Heavenly Realm for a long time. She has cultivated ninety-eight drops of true essence in her Qi Sea, and if she condenses two more drops, she will be able to break through to the middle stage of the Heavenly Realm.
Wang Hao had only just entered the Heavenly Realm and had condensed twelve drops of true essence.
His internal energy was far less abundant than that of the Crimson Saint Envoy.
From the early stage of the Heavenly Realm to the late stage, it is a process of continuous accumulation without any bottlenecks. As long as you cultivate enough true qi, you can break through the realm.
When the true essence in one's dantian reaches one hundred drops, one is considered to have reached the mid-stage of the Heavenly Realm.
When the true essence in one's Qi Sea reaches ten thousand drops, one is considered to have reached the late stage of the Heavenly Realm.
It seems simple, but the speed of condensing true essence is extremely slow. Even if Wang Hao circulates all thirty-six meridians and absorbs true energy from the outside world at the same time, and with the help of pills, it will still take a lot of time to break through to the middle stage of the Heavenly Realm.
Of course, Wang Hao now has the Dragon Ball inside his body, and he is absorbing the power of the Holy Dragon from the Dragon Ball anytime and anywhere. Even without taking rare treasures or elixirs, his speed of condensing true essence is quite fast.
Moreover, his main cultivation and power come from practicing magic techniques; martial arts are merely an auxiliary means.
Once a martial artist reaches the Heavenly Realm, their physique and innate constitution are almost fixed.
The first manifestation of this is the increase in speed.
In the Yellow Realm, Profound Realm, and Earth Realm, a martial artist's speed increases dramatically; almost every time they break through a realm, their speed increases significantly.
Once you reach the Celestial Realm, this situation will no longer occur.
Even if a martial artist breaks through a certain realm, their speed only increases by a small step.
Therefore, even if a martial artist at the Heavenly Realm cannot defeat their opponent, they still have a good chance of escaping. This is because their opponent's speed is not much faster than theirs.
At the same time, upon reaching the Heavenly Realm, a martial artist's cultivation speed will slow down. Even a genius martial artist will need to spend a lot of time cultivating their Martial Soul, and being able to break through a realm within two years is already quite impressive.
The Crimson Saintess wanted to cultivate a Martial Soul in the early stage of the Heavenly Realm, which is why her martial arts realm has progressed slowly in the past two years. Otherwise, with her talent and the resources she could obtain, she should have broken through to the middle stage of the Heavenly Realm long ago.
"Taiyin Meridian Sword Wave".
Wang Hao stood on the water's surface, looked up, and pointed a finger at the center of the Crimson Saint Envoy's sword technique.
In an instant, a beam of icy light flew out from Wang Hao's fingertip, forming a huge energy ripple that spread in all directions.
A circular wave appeared on the water's surface, centered on Wang Hao.
"boom!"
The three-section sword in the hands of the Crimson Saint Envoy was almost knocked out of his hand, and a sharp pain came from his arm.
Suddenly, her flawless jade arm was covered in sword marks and bloodstains. Her sleeve was completely torn apart by the sword energy, turning into pieces of red cloth that drifted into the water.
"You try taking a move yourself."
The chaotic spiritual energy within Wang Hao surged forth once more. He raised his arms, and the black river beneath his feet shot into the sky, transforming into a water wall over twenty feet high.
The scene was breathtaking, like a black mountain suddenly rising from the ground, with streams of water flowing down from above the water wall, like waterfalls cascading down, making a "rumbling" sound.
"Ten thousand swords fly together."
Wang Hao mobilized the power of his sword intent, and in an instant, water swords burst forth from the wall of water.
Water swords condense into ice, transforming into ice swords.
Thousands upon thousands of ice swords flew out, like a rain of swords, covering the sky and the earth, all heading towards the Crimson Saint Envoy.
Even with the Red Radiance Saintess's swordsmanship level, she could condense water into swords. However, she couldn't condense so many ice swords at the same time.
In terms of swordsmanship, she was far inferior to Wang Hao.
Moreover, Wang Hao not only used the power of the Sword Intent Heart, but also the power of the Azure Void True Qi, combining the two powerful forces together.
As the Crimson Saintess retreated rapidly, she raised the Eight Trigrams Cloud Sealing Disc, and a red, evil mist surged from her back, transforming into a red, fiery cloud.
The Crimson Saint Envoy's cultivation technique was also extremely powerful, reaching the Heavenly Realm, and he also cultivated a special true qi, the Crimson Cold True Qi.
"Boom!"
Thousands of ice swords rained down on the Bagua light seal, forcing the Crimson Saint Envoy to retreat continuously.
