"The plundering of Spiritual Qi here seems far stronger than in either Daosheng Continent or Tupi Continent."
In the silent night sky, a faint glaze-gold light could still be seen shrouding nearly half the heavens to the northwest.
Its strange, magnificent colors defied description, lending a distinctive quality to the night over distant Xituo Continent.
Yet Wang Ba and Zhaojie, standing motionless in midair, both looked somewhat grim.
