Daoist Baishi looked around in shock, realizing that he was still outside the Daoist church, still within the forest.
The little girl was still in front of him, the cold Qi still at his neck.
What was going on? The Falling Star Stone had clearly torn through space, so why had he not been transported elsewhere?
Daoist Baishi looked down towards his feet and his face suddenly paled.
The Falling Star Stone was still floating in the black space.
But the black space was visibly shrinking.
A divine strength arising from some place was beating against this black space like endless waves of water.
The Falling Star Stone's twisting of the world's laws had completely lost its effect. The petals and leaves ceased to be drawn towards it, their progress halted.
Just like how he could no longer enter that path, only remain where he stood.
Just where did these endless waves of strength come from? Why were they so divine and majestic? Why could not even the Falling Star Stone resist?
