Buzz—at last, the talisman eye burst into a wondrous radiance, shining over Xiang Qingcheng. The immortal talismans that formed the Light-Vanishing Grand Firmament Talisman Array flew into her body one after another. Once the array talismans disappeared, the nine crystal corpses that had seemed to materialize and vanish at will were fully revealed. Five Seven Radiance Cloudlight Stones also appeared within the array. Xiang Qingcheng raised a hand to collect them.
The first stone vanished into her hand. The others were about to follow it into her palm when a beam of starlight shone in from afar. It gathered into a single ray that appeared to have little killing power, yet it was more than Xiang Qingcheng could withstand.
Lu Xiaotian raised an eyebrow. The old monster Starrock's ability to conceal himself had improved considerably. Either he had been hiding his true skill before, or he had gained something from the ruins of the Purpleclear Immortal Palace.
"Hahaha! Dream on if you think you'll claim all these Seven Radiance Cloudlight Stones for yourself!" To the stone demon, the old monster Starrock was an intruder from outside, too. But compared to Lu Xiaotian, one more troublemaker to break the deadlock was the stone demon's best option. Seeing Lu Xiaotian move to help Xiang Qingcheng, it immediately intensified its attacks. Four Seven Radiance Cloudlight Stones had appeared, and it would not let Lu Xiaotian take them, no matter what. As long as Lu Xiaotian didn't get them, there was still hope. If Xiang Qingcheng got them, it would be the same as Lu Xiaotian getting them.
The stone demon fought with ferocity, and it truly did tie up most of Lu Xiaotian's attention. Lu Xiaotian still had a little strength to spare, but he knew how formidable the old monster Starrock was.
