As True Monarch Gangxing emerged from the Sword Pavilion, Sword Light flooding the heavens, a figure at the Holy Fire Cliff finally strode out of the Secret Realm, hands clasped behind his back.
It was Lü Yang.
Instantly, a Qi trace no weaker than True Monarch Gangxing's pierced the high heavens. It transformed into a bright light that vanished into the clouds, illuminating over half of the Immortal Pivot.
At that moment, his entire body seemed to be wreathed in roaring flames. A brilliant, crystalline firelight coursed over him, tinting even his hair with its luster. It made him appear all the more radiant and dazzling, before finally coalescing into nine shimmering, golden, divine rings that encircled him.
He wasn't one to let someone else steal the spotlight.
The next second, Lü Yang took a step. The world seemed to warp beneath his feet. In the blink of an eye, he had left the Holy Fire Cliff, crossed the Jiangbei Land, and arrived at the Great Dragon River.
"Hmph..."
