Qu Rui and Zhu Jingze, these two high-rank Soul Severing experts, launched a fierce battle with all their might to seize Fang Bai's Blood-Drinking Mad Blade.
They speculated that Qingzhu Venerable previously relied on Fang Bai's Blood Blade to reach the eighth level of the Linglong Tower and thereby advance to Soul Severing Perfection. They thought if they could obtain the Blood Blade, they might also reach the stature of Qingzhu Venerable when the Linglong Tower reopens in ten years.
In the realm of martial artists, after reaching Soul Severing realm, further advancement becomes exponentially difficult, especially for prodigies like Qu Rui and Zhu Jingze, whose cultivation levels have reached their limits due to innate constraints. Advancing further is extremely challenging, even after ten, twenty years or even longer; they might still fail to reach the next level.
