Chapter 1377: The Unpredictability of the Heavenly Dao
Gu Huojin merely shook his head with a faint smile upon seeing this, then raised his hands to the heavens, and two waves of golden light surged out of the palms of his hands toward the sky.
With the injection of golden light, the beam of gray light released by the chaotic vortex became even more formidable, and the five-colored light barrier was completely overwhelmed as it began to steadily shrink.
