The pillar of thunderlight trembled violently, runes flickering across its surface, but it forcefully withstood the furious blow without shattering.
"How is this possible?!"
Wisdom Sun Bodhisattva's face was filled with disbelief. He was, after all, a Golden Core level cultivator holding a Bodhisattva Venerable Position, yet he couldn't even break the defense of a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator?
'Is someone helping him in secret?'
Xu Yunfan's face was pale. He let out a long breath, sensing the Moon Wheel Treasure Mirror inside him, and glanced at the Celestial Empress within the Star Spirit Banner, whose soul was on the verge of scattering.
'Celestial Empress, I'm afraid I have to put you through this. Once you endure this attack, you can rest and recuperate.'
The Celestial Empress was incapable of speech at this moment.
If she could actually speak, she would have refused to take the hit for Xu Yunfan a million times over.
