Although the Lord of the Universe had resolutely increased the number of Demon Soldiers sent to self-destruct, Chi Xue and the others had anticipated this and prepared for it. The instant more than a hundred Demon Soldiers teleported over, Little White and the other Bone Soul Extremes sprang into action, successfully condensing more than a dozen layers of bone shields and placing them in the Demon Soldiers' path.
More than a dozen layers of bone shields—more than they had used before, when Little White and the others had deliberately shielded each Demon Soldier individually. Even if the self-destruction triggered a chain reaction, the shields would still greatly suppress the violent shockwave.

They used various Daoist arts to intercept the shockwaves while pushing God-Devouring Demon Domain to its limits to suppress the raging energy. The strange energy within the domain also frantically eroded the surging power, greatly weakening the terrifying impact.
