CRACKLE... The towering Energy Barrier enveloping the tall tower was suddenly covered in a dense web of fissures.
The gazes of the many Transcendents were fixed on the towering Energy Barrier.
The attackers, of course, grew anxious.
After all, if the Upper Rank powerhouse emerged, things would not end well for them.
Meanwhile, Saintisman and the other members of the Garrison were overjoyed.
They had already contacted that Upper Rank powerhouse.
That powerhouse had told them he was "exploring and needed some time to return." He ordered them to continue their defense, promising to punish their many enemies upon his return.
The battle had been incredibly difficult.
The invaders were even beginning to gain the upper hand.
Now, it seemed the Upper Rank powerhouse was about to emerge, and their hearts soared with joy.
They stared at the tower's Energy Barrier, which resembled a shattering mirror.
