An orange-gray gleam flashed through He Ao's eyes.
An invisible ripple in the void was slowly guided toward the Yellow Crystal in He Ao's hand.
Perhaps because it contained more energy, this time the city's process of "absorbing" the High Priest's remains was far more complicated, and the "line" pointing toward the city was thicker.
As a result, He Ao's process of guiding that line toward the Yellow Crystal in his hand was also slightly affected, becoming a little slower.

In a sense, this High Priest's twisted state was nothing more than an intelligent aberration.
Of course, in terms of strength, he was indeed far stronger than ordinary aberrations.
