1143 News Spreading Like Wildfire

The Yang-Dao Sect offered some resistance initially, led by Seraphia, who was unable to yield when so close to becoming the ultimate power in the Nine-Dao World. 

Despite having several Early Holy Manifestation cultivators and one Middle Holy Manifestation cultivator, the resistance was crushed in nearly a moment as the Prime Shadow and Mage-Sovereign vented their fury, annihilating thousands in an instant.

The strongest of the resistance, the Middle Holy Manifestation cultivator, was grabbed by the Prime Shadow before he could react, then dragged face-in-hand up into the sky, their battle taking place hundreds of miles in the sky where their powers couldn't harm the others.

The sky became consumed by a thousand-mile-wide cloud of darkness, enveloping both the Prime Shadow and his opponent. That cloud faded away a short while later, the Prime Shadow returning to the sect below with the head of his opponent in his hands.
