"Roooar...!"
At the Great Wilderness Ridge ore vein, the Azure Dragon phantom let out a sky-shaking roar, frantically destroying the Four Symbols Formation.
The formation was already covered in cracks, powerless to suppress it.
At that moment, three streaks of escaping light fled in disarray, retreating at tremendous speed toward the Hidden Dragon Mountains.

Yuan Tai, the Sea-Calming King, and the others were all deeply shocked.

Deep apprehension flickered in Granny Netherfire's sinister eyes.

Grandmaster and Great Grandmaster were different realms.
Even if Gu Beiwu was not a Great Grandmaster, his strength had probably already surpassed the bounds
