Changes in Daluo, Entering the Intellect Realm Again

"How could this be?"

Golden light tore through the Void Demon Banner and reflected in the Purgatory Island High Priest's eyes, illuminating the dread and shock within his heart with brutal clarity.

As he found it unbelievable, a spear shadow manifested within the golden light and struck him directly.

At the very instant death descended, the High Priest twisted aside with all his strength.

Boom!!

Half his body turned to ash beneath the spear shadow.

Yet, despite being grievously wounded and on the brink of death, no such thoughts arose in his mind. For the thought that followed How could this be? was simply: A Celestial Venerable ancient artifact.

Only after that thought surfaced did he spare any thought for his current state and the death about to befall him.

"Die?"

"No. Even if I die, I'll take you down with me."

In that instant, ruthless thoughts surged forth. With only half his body remaining, he did not attempt to suppress the spreading agony or his injuries. Instead, he poured his Dao intent into the torn Void Demon Banner.

Then, the thought of burning everything and unleashing a mutually destructive attack was about to flood into it, activating the power of this peak Dao artifact and launching a final counterattack against Han Yi, taking them both down together.

But—

Just as his thought was about to reach the Void Demon Banner, a colossal hand that blotted out the sky thrust in through the tear in the demonic banner. Then it pressed down upon the High Priest.

Divine power that sealed all things emerged from that palm. Dense divine runes surfaced within the banner, wrapping around the critically wounded High Priest. Through the crystallized divine power, one could even see the look in his eyes as he rushed toward death.

Crash!!
