Five huge stars, shining with five colors of gold, cyan, blue, red and yellow, are slowly connecting into a dazzling bead chain. The brilliance is so great that it almost covers the moonlight.
The light was so bright, with an unquestionable brilliance of heavenly power.
Suddenly, Ruan Qingqing felt palpitations in his heart, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze, and also seemed to be violently twisting and spinning.

All the scenes were like a broken glass mirror, torn apart inch by inch, turning into a dazzling stream of light, completely engulfing her.
There was a violent tearing sensation, and she completely lost consciousness before she even had time to scream.
