Inside the secret realm, Shen Luo naturally had no idea what fervent discussions and revelry people were holding over the battle between him and Seven Kills.
He only felt the chill around him growing heavier, as though even the blood in his veins were gradually freezing.
Yet there was no panic on his face. A faint firelight flickered in his eyes.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Explosions thundered without end as the icy light screens shattered one after another. Countless ice crystals flew in every direction while layer after layer of defenses was pierced.
