Meanwhile—
Elder Bai, flung across the boundary by Hungry Monkey, had just snapped awake from a dream during his sharp descent. Not yet having landed, he suddenly saw countless bullets materializing out of nowhere, shooting through the air down toward the ground.
In almost an instant—
Elder Bai's face, already pale from age, suddenly turned ashen as a trace of fear flickered through his eyes. Not waiting to hit the ground, he curled his legs up while still in mid-air and frantically began forming seals with his hands.
He knew the might of Miao's nuclear strike.
He couldn't withstand it.
By the time those bullets hit the ground and triggered explosions, they would have melted him on the spot. It was fortunate he was a second late; if he had been a second earlier, those bullets would not be appearing beneath his feet but above his head.
There wouldn't even be a need to wait for the bullets to cause an explosion upon impact.
