"Father… save me."
The moment Li Lian's voice reached him, Li Huxin's resolve crystallized. The crushing force pressing down on him suddenly halted, no longer able to push him back.
The Heavenly Realm cultivator froze in disbelief.
A mere mortal—blocking a Heavenly Realm attack?
Li Huxin's aura exploded as he took a step forward, the ground cracking beneath his feet.
"How…" he whispered.
…
The Li clansmen watching from the hills were stunned.
"That's General Hu's personal technique…"
"I can't believe it's real."
"I heard he can only use it when a certain condition is met."
"What condition?"
"No one knows. But I've also heard that once it's activated, he can single-handedly stop an entire beast wave."
The words spread in hushed disbelief as they watched the shield hold against the heavenly realm attack.
…
Li Huxin's sleeves had been shredded away, his arms raised as though he were holding back an impossible force.
