Meanwhile, the Great Heavenly Venerable of Ten Directions Light, who had arrived long ago, struck at the opportune moment.
He stepped forth from the radiance of countless celestial stars, like the purest ray of light between heaven and earth. With one finger, he tapped the Heavenly Emperor Mirror.
Under that single tap, the Heavenly Emperor Mirror seemed unable to bear the scorching heat of his fingertip. An incomparably shrill scream rang out from deep within the mirror.
Yet at that very moment, a dazzling golden glow erupted from within the Heavenly Emperor Mirror and swept toward the Great Heavenly Venerable of Ten Directions Light.
Feeling that vast invisible force of suppression, the Great Heavenly Venerable of Ten Directions Light's expression tightened slightly. His figure vanished from where he stood in an instant, as though he had transformed into a wisp of pure spiritual radiance and slipped into the spirituality of all living beings, existing in no reality at all.
But the golden glow followed close behind, illuminating the good and evil, light and darkness within the hearts of countless beings, leaving the Great Heavenly Venerable of Ten Directions Light nowhere to hide.
The Great Heavenly Venerable of Ten Directions Light simply fled.
He knew full well that with his own cultivation, he could not possibly withstand the supreme divine power passed down from the ancient Heavenly Emperor.
He could only retreat for now.
Taiwei Daoist's expression shifted slightly. The Purple Tenuity Divine Sword appeared in his hand, and with a sweep of sword light, he extinguished that golden radiance. At the same time, another innate treasure manifested in his hand.
The Purple Tenuity Imperial Seal transformed into a treasure seal and struck toward the Heavenly Emperor Mirror, seemingly containing within it the divine might of myriad heavens and myriad stars.
