Their Stances

The scouts of numerous powers were shocked beyond compare, unable to believe the terrifying might of the Emperor of Death.

Even though the defensive talismans that turned into a spherical barrier gave them a sense of protection, it was not amplified to resisting powerful attacks or cleansing foreign energy. Instead, it was a simple barrier talisman that disallowed energy from getting inside. Because of that, it could also maintain its defense for ten minutes, which was enough time for reinforcements to arrive.

However, never did they expect him to be so fast in being capable of using his energy. Most likely, he had already released his death energy in a seamless manner when he had unleashed his fist against the Fire Phoenix Clan's scout. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been caught in the palm of his hands.

Regret filled their hearts as to why they had to provoke him.
