The black nine-pointed star gleamed with a deep, shadowy light, like an abyss that devoured all things.
Golden Cicada had merely glanced at the black nine-pointed star tearing through the air when darkness washed over his vision. Even the Yang Spirit within his sea of consciousness was deeply drawn to that black nine-pointed star, helplessly falling toward it.
