That dark-gold finger beam from the Bone King contained the immense power of its late Supreme realm, along with its utter hatred for the power of the "Watcher."
Wherever it passed, even the unyielding sword intent lingering within the Myriad Sword Tomb was forcibly suppressed and annihilated!
Before the finger beam arrived, its icy killing intent had already pierced through space, locking down every trace of Ming Xin's aura and stabbing pain into his soul, as though he would completely collapse the very next moment!
