As his thoughts raced, the horrifying wounds covering Pei Ling's body healed at astonishing speed.
Ever since ascending to immortality, he had shared the lifespan of heaven and earth, shone with the sun and moon, and become deathless, indestructible, and imperishable. Yet this was the first time he had ever suffered such a grievous injury!
If he had not seized the "heavens" of the Panyai Realm before beginning this third question, and gained the symbols of both the "past" and the "future," his strength would not have been so vastly greater than when he had first entered the Immortal King realm. Just now, forget escaping into the Fusheng Chess Game, that drop of water with which the Dragon King had opened the fight could have scattered him to the four winds!
At the height of his power, Dragon King Fu Yuan was on an entirely different level from the Dragon King in the previous two battles!
Pei Ling had summoned tribulation clouds and Tribulation Lightning with an immortal art, yet Fu Yuan had charged straight into the churning lightning and gravely wounded him head-on!
Dragon Queen Si Hanyong had once told him that either Dragon King Fu Yuan or Golden Crow Emperor Xu Xiao could single-handedly stand against all the other Immortal Kings in the Myriad Worlds combined!
Now, it seemed the Dragon Queen had not exaggerated in the slightest!
As he pondered this, an unhurried knock came from outside the door. "Knock, knock, knock!"
Pei Ling immediately raised his head and looked toward the door.
A voice that sounded familiar came from behind it. "A clear song blows beneath the moonlight; flying pendants return to the jade capital!"
When the voice fell silent, the knocking stopped. The other side of the door went quiet, without another sound.
