With this slash, the field of elixir's compressed true energy was instantly depleted by 30% in Lachlan's body!
As mentioned before, with his current strength, if the Sky-Cleaving Startled Swan was used in succession, it would consume all the true energy after five slashes.
"Ah!" Faced with this slash, Heskel Ghost was no longer just changing colors, but felt his soul trembling.
His movements were agile enough, swiftly raising his arms in an attempt to block Lachlan's attack with all his strength.
As a late-stage Core Formation cultivator, he infused his robust true energy into his arms and metal claws.
Clang!
Ding!
In the next moment, his weapon, the metal claws, were unexpectedly severed by the Glacial River Dragon Sparrow Blade. The blade's momentum remained unabated!
Swish!
Splurt!
A cold gleam flashed, accompanied by the sound of the blade piercing flesh.
His upper body was instantly sent flying, accompanied by a spray of blood.
This late-stage Core Formation cultivator had been in a passive defensive position since Lachlan started attacking.
It wasn't until Lachlan unleashed three consecutive slashes, each more terrifying than the last, that Heskel Ghost was ultimately "cut in half" and left dead without a complete corpse.
It must be said that this elder from the Ghost Plaque Sect had met a rather pitiful end.
But it wasn't unjustified!
After breaking through to the Core Formation realm, Lachlan's absolute strength alone was enough to contend with late-stage Core Formation experts.
Add to that the Glacial River Dragon Sparrow Blade in his hand and the enhancement provided by the Sky-Cleaving Startled Swan technique, and this was the result.
Thud!
Heskel Ghost's severed body fell to the ground, spilling out its entrails.
However, as a late-stage Core Formation expert, he did not die immediately.
Lachlan approached with his sword, looking down on him from above, his eyes filled with a cold, fierce light.
"You, who know nothing about true strength! Old scum, do you have the qualifications to talk about absolute strength in front of me?"
Now, he threw Heskel Ghost's words back at him. Lying there, Heskel Ghost felt the rapid loss of vitality throughout his body and a look of shock and unwillingness filled his eyes.
"How... is this possible? Your strength... how can it be... so powerful? Half a month ago... you were clearly... not much different from Hawkeye's strength..."
Hearing this, Lachlan sneered, "As you said, it has already been over half a month! My rate of growth is not something an old scum like you can fathom, is it?"
Swish!
Splurt!
With that, Lachlan ruthlessly severed Heskel Ghost's head.
"Ah!"
With this strike, Heskel Ghost's physical body was completely finished, and his vitality was extinguished. Accompanied by a mournful scream, a phantom figure drifted out from the corpse, attempting to escape swiftly.
Surprisingly, it was Heskel Ghost's soul.
Lachlan snorted coldly, extending a void handprint that ruthlessly struck the phantom figure.
It was the Dragon Gaze Heavenward Technique's technique to kill ghosts.
Splurt!
With a light sound, Heskel Ghost's soul was heavily damaged, almost dissipated by the strike.
However, in the end, his soul emitted a green light, as if protected by a shield, and then only a wisp of remnant soul hurriedly drifted away.
Lachlan frowned and let out a cold snort in secret. He hadn't expected this evil cultivator to have means of protecting his soul.
However, his attack had already depleted 80% of the energy in his soul, leaving only a wisp of remnant soul that would inevitably dissipate sooner or later!
