"Rumble..."
Heaven and earth shuddered in an instant. Space shook and twisted, as though endless thunder rolled and intertwined, seeking to grind everything into oblivion.
Six vast powers erupted almost simultaneously.
They came from six Half-Step Mighty Ones, who struck together as though they had arranged it beforehand.
Their vast blood vitality surged like a tsunami, like a boundless ocean, like a chain of volcanoes sweeping across the firmament.
Heaven and earth boiled.

Their bodies trembled, and every step seemed to leave them on the verge of collapse.
Yet their might grew even more terrifying. Their blood vitality erupted completely, no longer restrained, interweaving all manner of Dao principles.
It spread through almost all of heaven and earth, leaving countless people shaken.
It seemed this was their first glimpse of a battle between true powerhouses.
Half-Step Mighty Ones were figures on the level of the supreme elders of the great holy lands.
In their youth, they had competed with Holy Lords, standing among the finest of their era.
Though they had ultimately lost and retreated behind the scenes to become the hidden reserves of their respective factions, their strength was beyond question.
Now, with little lifespan remaining, they had confined all their blood vitality within their bodies, cutting off the drainage of their life force
