I... lost?
The Supreme Being's expression was ugly, as though he found this outcome difficult to accept.
And not just him. The other Supreme Beings were much the same.
Li Pin...
A clearly newly ascended Supreme Being had actually defeated Taicang!?
Taicang was absolutely among the strongest of them. If Li Pin could defeat Taicang, then didn't that mean...
The same result would await them if they took his place?
"How is that possible..."
Taishi Supreme Being murmured to himself.
A man whose worthiness of becoming his disciple had still required consideration a few centuries ago had, in such a short time, grown powerful enough to stand above him?
He could not help recalling that Eternal Sword Light Li Pin had unleashed at Taicang Supreme Being.
Constant. Boundless.
Although Taicang Supreme Being had fought back with all his strength, trying to shatter the sword light, he had never been able to affect it in the slightest.
Instead, during his counterattacks, his own power had been drained ever further.
As time passed, once most of his reserves had been depleted, the situation would inevitably reverse.
When that time came, this Eternal Sword Light would directly crush and cleave apart Taicang Supreme Being...
Along with the bodies of all Supreme Beings like them.
Li Pin...
This man who had cultivated for barely more than three hundred years had truly overtaken those before him. He possessed the strength to defeat them, even to kill them!?
And what he relied on was the power of that constant Eternal Sword Light state!?
For a time, the gazes of Taishi Supreme Being, Taiyi Supreme Being, Taiyan Supreme Being, and the others all fell upon Li Pin. Their previous ease and composure had vanished, replaced by grave solemnity.
In some eyes, there was even deeply concealed awe
