"Want to see the ultimate speed?" Zhong Shan suddenly asked.
"The ultimate speed? You think you're worthy of talking to me about speed?" Kong Xuan revealed a faint smile.
"People of Great Zheng, heed my order! I, the Emperor, am facing an unparalleled immortal. Extend your right hands and lend me your strength!" Zhong Shan shouted loudly.
With that shout, carried by the transmission of the boundless fortune, his voice instantly reached the ears of every commoner.
"His Majesty is facing an enemy?"
"An unparalleled immortal?"
...While the people were puzzled, they raised their right hands one after another. In an instant, it was as if all the strength had suddenly drained from their bodies, and many of them suddenly went limp with exhaustion.
Vast amounts of energy gathered. The fortune above High Heaven Court suddenly swelled more than tenfold. Then, a dragon-shaped stream of energy rapidly surged into Zhong Shan's body.
Zhong Shan's strength suddenly expanded. A colossal pressure radiated from his side, pressing down on the sea below until huge waves surged in every direction.
"Cough, cough, cough...!" Kong Xuan coughed several times, coldly watching Zhong Shan's surging strength.
"It makes no difference! Since that's the case, die!" Kong Xuan snorted coldly.
The instant Kong Xuan widened his eyes, a row of seemingly real yet unreal blades suddenly appeared in the void. The Space Blades reached Zhong Shan in an instant. They were too fast, as if even the speed of the Shadow Body could not evade them.
"Clang!" Zhong Shan was cleaved in two.
"His Majesty~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"
At South Heaven Gate, the assembled officials cried out in alarm.
But in the next moment, Zhong Shan's severed body vanished, and he suddenly reappeared in another direction. Boundless fortune continued pouring into his body.
Zhong Shan had not grown larger.
