Bang!
The air tore apart!
The void trembled!
That illusory river of chaotic Sword Qi tore through the void with incomparably savage force, bearing down upon Crystal Calamity, the half-step Demon Venerable, like mountains collapsing and seas overturning.
At that critical moment!
A suffocating sense of deadly peril welled up in Crystal Calamity's heart.
Therefore!
Crystal Calamity reacted at once.
After all.
What seemed like inconceivable attack speed in others' eyes was nothing more than that in Crystal Calamity's eyes.
At the very least, the attack speed unleashed by a Mortal Cultivator at Cheng Buzheng's Nascent Soul Late Stage was still within the range his divine sense could catch.
Likewise.
It was also within the range of the half-step Demon Venerable Crystal Calamity's mental reactions.
That was precisely because there was still a minor realm's gap between the two.
What was more, the higher one's cultivation, the greater the disparity between each minor realm.
Thus, in that instant, although the half-step Demon Venerable Crystal Calamity could no longer evade, he still had sufficient time to defend himself.
The next moment.
The half-step Demon Venerable Crystal Calamity stirred a thought.
Bloodline Divine Ability: Crystal Origin Shield!
A crystalline shield rose from around Crystal Calamity's body, firmly enveloping him within it.
At the same time.
The half-step Demon Venerable Crystal Calamity also brought out the Mystic Crystal Diagram he had prepared long ago.
The Mystic Crystal Diagram rose into the air and transformed into a sheet of light, merging seamlessly with that crystalline shield.
In an instant.
The shield enveloping the half-step Demon Venerable Crystal Calamity blazed with light, as though endless crystalline runes were flowing ceaselessly across it.
Clearly.
At that moment, bolstered by the bloodline divine ability, the Mystic Crystal Diagram's defensive power had reached its peak.
Not only that.
