A grayish-white pillar of light shot toward the Deception-Heaven Great Array below, carrying a suffocating sense of deathly stillness.
Although the Five Emperors did not know exactly what level this attack had reached, they could keenly sense that being touched by that white pillar of light would put them in terrifying danger.
Over the years, they had come to understand that the gulf between Heavenly Sovereigns could sometimes be astonishingly vast. The Third-Generation Soul Emperor, for instance, had been turned directly into a Demon Emperor merely by taking an actual attack from the Cursed Incantation Heavenly Demon Emperor.

Blood-red light danced within
