The stand-off of Deuvuo and Juxi versus the Cryst Emperors left the air feeling frosty, a heaviness pressing down on every one of them.
Despite their tempers, both Deuvuo and Juxi knew that the situation wasn't good. They were outnumbered, and even if they were confident in their individual strengths, dealing with a genius of another Heaven was tough.
It wasn't only because the Impotent Symptom didn't have a complete path for them, but also because the abilities of those from other Heavens tended to be exceptionally difficult to deal with. They had completely different philosophies, and the habits and reflexes they had built through years of battle could easily be fooled by the Cryst Emperors doing something they had never seen before.
Knowing this, they would have to fight extra cautiously, which would limit their strength even further. But by comparison, the Cryst Emperors would have been fools not to thoroughly study their enemies before arriving for an invasion.
