As for whether that First Heavenly Emperor was truly powerful, Zhou Xu remained skeptical.
Judging from the descriptions, when this First Heavenly Emperor had just been summoned, that place should still have been in the tribal era.
In that era, the standards for what counted as "powerful" were fundamentally different.
Zhou Xu was now a True Word Master at the peak of the Extraordinary Realm. Naturally, his horizons were worlds apart from before.
