Can’t Leave

Xiang Yu watched the Core Formation cultivator approach, noting how the man's speed had decreased significantly after taking multiple talisman explosions. He tightened his grip on his sword and settled into his stance, ready for the confrontation.

The cultivator infused his fists with qi, causing them to glow with dark energy as he descended from above. Xiang Yu raised his sword just in time to block the attack, but despite the man's weakened state, the raw power difference was undeniable. The impact sent Xiang Yu skidding backward several meters, his feet carving furrows through the earth.

Even a weakened Core Formation cultivator is still formidable, Xiang Yu thought, his arms tingling from the force of the blow.
