"Xiao Lu."

Destruction took one last look at the Life Goddess beside him before his body and divine core dissipated.

The Life Goddess struggled desperately to hold on. The Tree of Life was shattered again and again under the frequencies of Order Resonance, while its endless Life Energy helped her recover. The situation abruptly reached a stalemate.
