"Too weak!"
Ji Hao was somewhat disappointed. Whatever was inside these earthen jars in the prison was far weaker than the statues in the great hall. His palms and fingers moved together, glittering like immortal metal. With each sweep of his hand, heaven and earth collapsed, and he soon forced back every enormous hand and giant claw.
