There were phantoms of three tails behind her.
The Nine Tails was an ancient race of mythical creatures. Of course, not every Nine Tails possessed nine tails, but only the Nine Tails with the highest cultivation level would have nine tails. According to the current cultivation level, Frostine’s Nine Tails bloodline was still far from possessing the nine tails, but it was incredible to have the three tails’ phantoms.
Regardless of all costs, she was about to rush over. However, she suddenly froze.
Alex did not collapse because of that, but he continued rushing forward without slowing down at all. It seemed that the sword earlier was utterly ineffective on him.
“This… How is this possible?
“The sword has pierced his mind palace. How can he still be alive? It’s really absurd!”
Shawn, Dylan, and Khloe all seemed to be in disbelief. Even the astonished Elder Quint let out an ‘Eek!’.
How could he not die?
The gourd in his hand was called the Hidden Sword Gourd, where 365 powerful flying swords were hidden inside it. Elder Quint could not maneuver all of them even with his current cultivation base. He could only handle 108 of them at most, but even so, it was already incredibly powerful.
Especially the sword that he had just shot at Alex had a sword name, Witstealer!
It was an existence where its destructive power ranked third among the 108 swords that he could control. Logically, Alex’s soul would have long disappeared by now after the sword had pierced his mind palace.
Yet, he was unexpectedly fine?
‘Humph, if one sword fails, I’ll use two swords then!’ Elder patted on the gourd hard.
At this moment, the gourd spat two streams of light at Alex in unison again. They pierced Alex’s mind palace, just like the previous flying sword.
Whoosh!
The sword light entered the glabella and… Disappeared.
Meanwhile, Alex still did not slow down.
“F*ck, that’s three swords!”
“Godd*mmit…”
Elder Quint could not help but swear. To his surprise, this brat had absorbed all the 108 streams of sword light. Was he some sword-devouring monster?
Never did he expect that the Chaos Tree in Alex’s mind palace had absorbed all the flying swords in his Hidden Sword Gourd. Instead, all the 108 swords of different styles were hung on the Chaos Tree’s branches, motionless.
Well, the Chaos Tree could already absorb its enemies’ magical treasures before it had grown into the towering tree. That sect elder’s flying sword in front of Nature’s Palace back then was a great magical treasure as well.
Eventually, Alex had taken it away with ease. Now, the Chaos Tree was a hundred times stronger than before, so absorbing the 108 swords was only a walk in the park!
At this moment, Alex rushed to the area below the golden condor.
Looking up, it was the golden condor’s belly.
“I’ve taken so many hits from your swords. It’s rude not to respond in kind. You should try to take a blow from my sword too!”
As Alex spread his arm, the Sword of the Universe appeared in his hand. With the surging Chi in the golden core, he swung the sword hard and made a flying slash in mid-air, hitting right at the golden condor and Elder Quint, who was on it.
