Chapter 40

The severed-arm regeneration of the Fierce Ghost Early-Stage was indeed formidable, but I was no pushover. Although my realm was inferior to hers, the Qi within my body could entirely rival a Tier 2 Mid-Stage cultivator. That was right, I had already reached Tier 1 Mid-Stage, which naturally gave me the ability to fight above my weight class. Dealing with a Fierce Ghost Early-Stage in red, even if she returned to the peak condition she was in before being heavily injured, I still had the strength to fight her. I took a deep breath, regulated my breathing, and before the red-robed Fierce Ghost could recover her wits, I lunged forward in a flash, raised the Yuyao Sword, and slashed down fiercely, as if determined not to retreat without killing her in a single blow. Pity that I still overestimated myself. The red-robed Fierce Ghost had already recovered; although her aura was slightly weakened, she was still a genuine Ghost realm entity after all, and she managed to dodge it. No matter how much stronger my actual combat capability was compared to hers, my realm was unequivocally lower than hers. Being able to suppress her at first relied entirely on my combat experience being richer than hers; otherwise, the roles would have been reversed.
