Dao Yan Great Emperor's heart sank to rock bottom.
Five Stone Beings crossed the starry sky. Wherever they passed, ancient life-bearing stars dimmed one after another.
Inky-black demonic light coiled around the Stone Beings' bodies. With every breath, they exhaled a devouring force capable of draining all living beings from an entire star domain.
That was the Heaven Swallowing Demonic Art, the Emperor Scripture of the later Ruthless One Great Emperor. It had been brought in from beyond the Heavens Tower and cultivated by Royal Clan Players here to the Emperor Realm.
As for temporal paradoxes, to Royal Clan Players, whoever used it first was its creator.
Upon an azure ancient star, tens of billions of living beings did not even have time to scream.
Cities collapsed, mountains and rivers dried up, vegetation withered, and birds, beasts, even the insects in the soil were drained of their vital essence in an instant.
Densely packed corpses carpeted the earth. Like dried corpses desiccated for ten thousand years, their eye sockets were hollow, their mouths stretched wide, forever frozen in the terror of life's final moment.
In three breaths, the entire ancient star became a dead star. Even the last wisp of earth-vein essence deep within its core was drained clean.
The five Stone Beings did not pause in the slightest. Their gazes were icy and indifferent, like five war machines born solely for destruction, as they continued onward.
Dao Yan Great Emperor stood amid the sea of stars. Veins bulged across his forehead as he watched, yet he had no choice but to forcibly suppress the urge to strike.
He could not stop here. The battlefield of this Emperor battle had to be drawn out of the Eternal Star Domain, or the entire Eternal Star Domain would be blasted into ruins.
