At that moment, people outside on the streets around Auspicious Cloud Tower immediately noticed what was happening. To their horror, a streak of black light shot out from the tower, piercing straight through the entire building as though a massive blade had sliced it cleanly in half.
The force even spread into the surrounding area. Roads in the distance were shaken apart into fragments, while dense cracks spread across the walls of nearby buildings, as if they were on the verge of crumbling.
This violent shockwave instantly swept across the entirety of Crystal City, as though a magnitude-five or six earthquake had struck. Glass shattered from countless buildings, and cracks split open across the ground.
No matter what they had been doing, everyone was startled by the intense tremors and began investigating their source.
"What's going on? Why did an earthquake suddenly happen?"
"It isn't an earthquake. Experts are fighting in Crystal City. Judging from the fluctuations, the battle seems to be taking place at Auspicious Cloud Tower."
"You're joking, right? Auspicious Cloud Tower is one of Crystal Star's greatest powers. It has three or four Treasure Refining Realm experts. What fool who doesn't value his life would dare cause trouble there?"
"I don't know. But I heard Auspicious Cloud Tower has already been split in two and is about to turn into ruins."
"Turn into ruins? Is that expert really so powerful?"
"It's more than just being powerful. My intelligence says that the owner of Auspicious Cloud Tower has already been pierced to death by that vicious criminal with a single spear. Several Treasure Refining Realm elders were also killed on the spot. Auspicious Cloud Tower has suffered countless casualties."
"Just who is it? Could Auspicious Cloud Tower have offended some major figure?"
The disturbance immediately alerted countless experts
