Just a little more...
Ye Zhun remained expressionless, his scarlet eye gazing indifferently down at Ji Jue as he fled in disarray. Again and again, he unleashed annihilation upon him, yet every time, he seemed to fall just short.
Just a little more, and he could obliterate him completely. Just a little more. Still a little more. Always a little more!
What made his agitation even harder to contain was the Void Throne behind him, slowly growing and filling out as True Blood converged upon it...
As though, just like the Tower's inevitable completion, the manifestation of the Void Throne was inevitable as well!
This was the Tower's instinct.
According to the secrets passed down by the last swordsmith and the Tower's structure, constructing the throne was nowhere near as difficult as everyone else imagined.

Just as it was doing now.
That was how it should have been.
