The eerie black shadow was terrifying beyond measure.
It stood utterly still, as though it were formed from a swath of black holes.
Yet it had taken the Heavenly Dao Palace Lord's full-force strike head-on.
All the sacred radiance that surged forth drilled into its body, without even raising the slightest ripple.
Saintess Yao Yao's eyes widened as well, her soul trembling in utter disbelief.
"It... it's still alive..."
Saintess Yao Yao murmured.
"This is the Malevolent Spirit of the Endless God-Void Sea?"
Jiang Dao asked in shock.
"Yes, but its identity in life was that of the first-generation Heavenly Dao Palace Lord!"
Saintess Yao Yao's face was filled with shock. "No, it is not merely the first-generation Heavenly Dao Palace Lord. The resentment left behind by the previous Heavenly Dao Palace Lord after his death has also fused into its body. It is the amalgamation of the grudges of two Palace Lords!"
What?
Jiang Dao was greatly alarmed.
An amalgamation of the resentments of two Heavenly Dao Palace Lords?
What kind of monstrous aberration was this?
No wonder it could forcibly withstand the Heavenly Dao Palace Lord's attack.
Those two Heavenly Dao Palace Lords had already become monsters after death, terrifying in their own right. Now, their posthumous resentment had intertwined as well—this was undoubtedly even more heaven-defying.
"But why is it stopping the Heavenly Dao Palace Lord?"
Jiang Dao muttered.
"It seems unwilling to accept this... It wants to seize the throne and return to the upper realm once more."
Saintess Yao Yao said, "It once ran rampant through this region, sowing endless terror and causing countless God Kings to perish. Later, the Heavenly Dao Palace Lord wielded the power of the Heavenly Dao and blasted it apart. Yet no one expected its vitality to be so terrifying.
