Sealing the heavens and locking the earth, the heavenly king descends.
On the Path to Godhood, when Chen Chu walked over eight thousand meters, it seemed like he triggered something, and a shadow of a massive black door, hundreds of meters tall, appeared at the end.
That door was like a mirage, ethereal and hazy, standing firmly in the void ahead.
"What is that door?" Fu Jiangtao was astonished.
Below, over a hundred geniuses who had been expelled after failing the trial looked up in surprise at the phenomenon appearing in the Eye of Heaven Observation.
Watching the lone figure walking along the path of white clouds, Li Hao slowly said, "It should be related to Chen Chu; he has gone too far now."
In comparison to Li Daoyi and others who had only just reached over three thousand meters and were still at the forefront of the Path of Heavenly Kings, Chen Chu was almost at the end of the God Road.
The gap between the two sides was enormous, especially since he had only cleared the Peak Road, making the difference with Chen Chu even greater.
Thinking of this, Li Hao felt a bit emotional.
Who could have imagined that half a year ago, at the Southern Heaven Martial High freshmen competition, this guy was merely an ordinary genius ranked forty-ninth.
Until he went to Keluoya, and whether it was due to some tempering on the battlefield of slaughter, he then soared to an uncontrollable height.
He overwhelmingly surpassed everyone, becoming the first genius in the school to break through the four heavens, and after just a month of lurking in the Exotic Beast Battlefield, he became invincible in the south.
Thinking of this, even Li Hao couldn't help but complain, "Damn it, it always feels like this guy is using hacks."
Beside him, Ji Changkong smiled calmly, "Li, relax. Everyone has their own path; we don't need to compare ourselves with Chen."
Li Hao, a rough-looking giant of a man, sighed heavily, "Senior Ji, I’m not jealous of Chen Chu's accomplishments, but there are some things you won't understand."
Thinking of the battle he had agreed upon with Chen Chu, Li Hao felt a bit helpless. How was he going to fight that...
Forget it, let’s postpone this battle until I break through to king level.
But by then, that guy might have already advanced to heavenly king, and I, a king, should be able to handle that monster for a couple of moves... right?
Although he had only walked over one thousand five hundred meters on the Path to Godhood, Li Hao remained full of confidence.
He had experienced twenty-nine life-and-death crises, repeatedly breaking limits, and with his innate divine strength, he was destined to ascend to the throne.
Moreover, this time he had gained a lot, two sources of the world, plus that ancient civilization's magic path bronze statue.
Next, as long as he could cultivate the Great Void Dark Flower Sutra and forge the Demonic Killing Battle Body, completing the third transformation of his physique to break through to seven heavens, the king level was not out of reach.
While everyone's attention was on the Eye of Heaven Observation, a terrifying pressure erupted in the distance, from the direction of Channel One Base.
The winds howled, thunder rumbled, and a silver vortex rising a thousand meters shook as if a giant creature was squeezing through from the other side.
The sudden change attracted everyone's attention; they turned to see the horizon submerged in endless darkness, transforming into rolling black clouds surging this way.
In the blink of an eye, the black waves of clouds surged over, blocking out the sky.
Following that, a terrifying pressure that surpassed king level descended.
Boom! In an instant, the ground shook, cracks appeared in the earth, and everyone involuntarily erupted with a momentum to resist.
But under that terrible pressure, these geniuses, who hadn't even broken through to high level, couldn't resist at all, and the gathered willpower was instantly dispersed.
As everyone was horrified, about to be crushed by the terrifying aura that felt like the heavens were collapsing, the pressure suddenly vanished.
