Zhang Yan flew out of the grand hall, sprinting along the corridor, with the three Devils relentlessly chasing behind.
Upon reaching the area outside the side hall, where not a soul could be seen, he abruptly turned around and released the Star Sword Ball into the air.
Sword light streaked across, striking each of the three Devils. Yet unlike Kang Tong earlier, who had slain them effortlessly, the sword light only penetrated half a foot into their forms before halting completely.
Zhang Yan thought to himself, "Kang Tong studied the 'Slaughter Sword Skill,' one of the Shaoqing Three Veins. His sword is unparalleled and specializes in slicing through anything in one strike. My sword ball has yet to undergo Secret Technique cultivation and cannot compete with his methods."
