"No, it's too strong! Our attacks can't hurt it at all!"
"The outer Sword Array has been breached; the inner is under violent assault!"
"This is the force of the cosmos, the force of the universe! Our swords can't stop it!"
"It can crush stars with its bare hands! We can't hold it, get out of the way! Quick!"
"...We need support, need support!"
Various cries echoed between the sky, along with the gleam of swords. Everywhere was lost, everywhere disadvantaged. The swordsmen of Sun-shooting Pass, facing a celestial entity that blotted out the sky, retreated step by step. No matter how swift the Sword Qi or how profound the Sword Intent, in front of the celestial, all mystery faded, returning to the essence of battle—
A contest of strength.
If the strength is strong enough, it can win. But the strength of the swordsmen at Sun-shooting Pass couldn't compare to the celestial entity, it was the difference between a firefly and the bright moon.
