Boom! The terrifying Purple Sky Dou Shuai Palace crashed down, erupting with an earth-shattering roar, like a giant hammer, smashing down fiercely.
Time seemed to freeze, everything around appeared to be at a standstill.
In that moment, everyone was horrified, unable to move; it felt as though time itself had ceased to flow. Yet, their eyes could still see everything, their hearts filled with immense dread. This was actually the Law of Time. This young man before them had actually mastered the Law of Time.
The Law of Time is one of the highest laws in the world, even Venerables cannot grasp it. How could Qin Chen be capable of mastering it?
In their shock, they watched helplessly as the Purple Sky Dou Shuai Palace crashed down.
Buzz! Zhuge Rulong erupted with dazzling fate light, and at the moment the Purple Sky Dou Shuai Palace was about to smash down, a divine rainbow shot out from his pupils. Suddenly, infinite fate runes emerged around his body as if he had been prepared to break free from the shackles of time.
Crack! Cracks in time began to appear just as the Purple Sky Dou Shuai Palace was about to hit Zhuge Rulong, instantly shattering, while Zhuge Rulong thrust out his right hand to shield himself.
Boom! An earth-shattering roar reverberated; Zhuge Rulong was knocked back, his body glowing with divine rainbows. His robe tore open, and his expression was somewhat disheveled, but his eyes were filled with unprecedented excitement.
"Hahaha, it truly is the Law of Time!"
Zhuge Rulong laughed heartily, and on the ground, a surge of fate rune arrays rose abruptly, blasting Qin Chen away.
Pfft! Qin Chen's body burst open, blood spattering out; his heart sank. Zhuge Rulong reacted too quickly. The Law of Time couldn't completely seal him for long and was directly torn apart. It wasn't that the Law of Time wasn’t powerful, but the opponent was a Venerable, surpassing the Heavenly Dao. With the current Law of Time Qin Chen was able to deploy, he couldn't fully restrain a Venerable; he could only slightly affect the opponent's time.
This time was too brief; it was impossible to play a decisive role against a Venerable.
Most terrifying was that Zhuge Rulong seemed to know he possessed the Law of Time and had long made preparations, causing his efforts to fall short.
Clang! Zhuge Rulong punched the Purple Sky Dou Shuai Palace away, and endless heavenly fire spewed forth, but it could only scorch the surface of his body, unable to penetrate deep into his flesh. Even top-tier flames like the Calamity Netherfire and Heavenly Poison Entropy Fire only caused Zhuge Rulong superficial injuries and could not harm his essence.
Because, the opponent was simply too powerful.
Zhuge Rulong looked up at the Purple Sky Dou Shuai Palace, his gaze slightly changing as he calculated shrewdly, mumbling, "The Purple Sky Dou Shuai Palace, isn’t it the treasure inherited from the Heavenly Fire Venerable in the trial ground of the Heavenly Realm?
It is rumored that it was obtained by a genius named Qin Chen from the Eastern Heavenly Realm. My Zhuge family’s Holy Son, Zhuge Xu, fell in the trial ground of the Heavenly Realm, reportedly slain by a youth named Qin Chen. Could it be...?" Zhuge Rulong’s gaze fixed on Qin Chen, a terrifying light bursting forth from his eyes.
A dreadfully terrifying thought surged within him: was this person before him really the Qin Chen from the Eastern Heavenly Realm?
If so, then not long ago, this individual was merely a Holy Son, a figure at the later stage of the Heavenly Saint level. How could he have become a late-stage Saint Master in such a short span of just over a decade?
How was this achieved?
This young man definitely had a great secret.
Zhuge Rulong's heart raced. For some reason, he vaguely felt he was touching upon a great secret, a secret related to the future of the Heavenly Realm. A late-stage Heavenly Saint had become a late-stage Saint Master in just over a decade, such speed was simply astounding.
