"Hng."
Inside the Mirror Lake Profound Heaven Mirror, Qin Hao appeared out of thin air, suspended above the ground. Before he could steady himself, he let out a muffled grunt. A trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, and his face grew several shades paler.
A flash of horror crossed Qin Hao's eyes.
"What terrifying lightning power!"
At the final, critical instant—the very moment Qin Hao entered the Mirror Lake Profound Heaven Mirror—Lei Junyao happened to throw a punch straight at him.
That was understandable. After all, Qin Hao and Lei Junyao had been only forty-odd meters apart by then, and even that distance was only because they were underground...
Had they been outside...
Never mind a few dozen meters—even a thousand or ten thousand meters would have been close enough for Lei Junyao to attack. Of course, the Red Moon Cave Abode was different from the outside world. If the distance had been greater...
Then even Lei Junyao, a Lower Divine King, would have struggled to inflict meaningful damage. After all, both the space and the red moon power within the Red Moon Cave Abode were extraordinarily stable.
That was also why Lei Junyao had rushed underground and waited until he was forty-odd meters from Qin Hao before attacking.
By then, however, Qin Hao had already entered the Mirror Lake Profound Heaven Mirror. Otherwise, if Lei Junyao's power had struck while Qin Hao was in combat...
He would have been unable to enter the Mirror Lake Profound Heaven Mirror.
Even so...
Some of that power had followed the spatial passage through which Qin Hao entered the Mirror Lake Profound Heaven Mirror and struck him.
That force had been exceedingly weak.
Compared to the power of Lei Junyao's punch, it had probably amounted to less than one
