Ning Fan grabbed True Person Bailu's wrist with all his might, and the latter couldn't break free. At such a close distance, it was impossible to avoid the sword completely, so he had to brace himself and take the sword head-on.
Fortunately, True Person Bailu discerned that the Reverse Sea Sword used by Ning Fan was not a magical treasure but a Dao Weapon. Dao Weapons often lack great power, so he was confident that his Dantian would remain unharmed!
In a moment of crisis, True Person Bailu urged his thoughts, and a piece of spirit equipment comparable to the Twelve Nirvana Magical Treasures instantly protected his whole body, shielding the Dantian with glowing spiritual light.
This spirit equipment's defense was a paragon among the Twelve Nirvana, especially when combined with True Person Bailu's special cultivation technique, which enhanced its defense further. It could not be penetrated by non-innate treasures, saving his life countless times during his long cultivation years.
