Meanwhile.
Near the central region of the Flowing Light Domain lay a magnificent world suspended within endless divine light—the Spirit Firmament Realm.
Inside the Realm Lord's Hall, a figure stood respectfully below the main dais.

"A treasure capable of instantly killing a late Hunyuan Taiji cultivator with one blow must possess power at least at the Hunyuan Wuji level."
Naturally, the Spirit Firmament Realm Lord had considered this as well.
Though arrogant, he had no desire to rashly clash head-on with a Hunyuan Wuji-level supreme killing treasure without knowing
