A deafening explosion echoed. Its immense power made the entire cemetery, and even the galaxy itself, tremble. Not even Alear managed to stay standing under the impact. Her scales appeared instantly, and her ears rang violently.
As for the other Mannaz, they coughed up blood. Most of them passed out, while the rest were left with their heads buzzing, temporarily losing most of their senses.
Among them were many nine-ring Spiritual Guardians, all completely stunned. The power of that explosion was more than enough to wipe everyone out without giving them any chance to defend themselves.
Darian and Niara were fully focused ahead, not knowing the outcome. All the Qi crystals were used at once, catching the Celestial Shadow completely off guard and defenseless. Any normal person wouldn't have been able to react; even an immortal could've easily died in that situation. But…
"Bastard…" Niara spat.
