"Sever!"

Hao Xuan's palm was glowing with a faint blue light but as soon as he uttered the word "sever", its glow started getting stronger and stronger. Within a few seconds, it was so bright that Ensis Couldn't even look at it directly.

Hao Xuan's forehead was caked with sweat and his breathing was getting more and more forceful.

Monk was biting down hard as the veins around his eyes bulged, threatening to burst any second.

"AHHH!"

He finally couldn't hold it in anymore and let out a heart-wrenching scream.

"What the f*ck is going on?!" Hao Xuan spoke through gritted teeth, "It was never this difficult before!"

Maybe because Monk knew something was coming that he was prepared but he wasn't letting go. His resistance against Hao Xuan's power was causing a conflict between their souls.

"Just give in you moron, you're only hurting yourself!" Hao Xuan yelled at Monk.

Monk's screams came to a halt as he let out a bloody grin, "Haha...never!"
