"Ugh! Ugh!"
Qiong Zhan's expression shifted, then turned deathly pale.
He spat out several mouthfuls of blood, his aura steadily declining as he weakened.
His life divine power continued to dwindle.
And it was not just his life divine power.
Even his divine soul was weakening.

But mastering those foundations was only the bare
