Outside the Moon-Watching Sect, numerous people awaited the outcome of the battle, many of whom even scoffed at Nan Gongkun's caution. He had left merely one Golden Core outside while taking forty-nine with him as he charged into the Moon-Watching Sect.
Of course, no one would think of ambushing at this time, with thousands of Sky-splitting Sword Sect disciples glaring fiercely. Their Great Formation could still hold off a few Golden Cores, and the forty-nine Golden Cores could return at any time.
It was then that everyone saw a beam of light soar into the sky.
Golden Cores absorb nature's spiritual energy, achieving perfection and, usually, when one is completed, heavenly phenomena occur. But if one suddenly dies in battle, their spiritual energy returns to nature, and phenomena occur.
"Moon-Watching…"
Someone had just started speaking, speculating about who among the Moon-Watching Sect had died in battle, when suddenly, six more beams of light almost simultaneously shot up!
