On the other side, although Chen Xuan appeared to be handling things with ease, he was actually in a bad way. The countless exchanges of blows with Ophiuchus had severely depleted his physical energy.
After returning from the Zhuo family at Nanpan Mountain, he had been focused on recovering his health and repairing the hidden injuries within his meridians, all in an effort to reach a level of physical strength capable of sustaining immortal qi as quickly as possible. Until earlier tonight, Chen Xuan had only recovered about seventy or eighty percent of his strength, only to be confronted by Ophiuchus, who had come seeking revenge.
When Chen Xuan possessed his full physical strength, he could single-handedly take on dozens of ancient martial arts masters at the Zhuo family residence, even shattering the Thirty-Six Veins Earth Fiend Formation through sheer force alone. But today, with his body not fully recovered, he had to fight with everything he had against Ophiuchus. This battle was even more perilous than the one at the Zhuo family estate.
