"Gasp!!!"
The beings on both sides sucked in a sharp breath.
Was this really an Immortal Emperor challenging a Quasi-Hegemon? Why was Xia Qiuer, a Quasi-Hegemon, on the back foot?
This was far too strange!
Normally, even an Heir Grade Immortal Emperor facing the weakest early-stage Quasi-Hegemon would only get crushed. The two weren't even on the same level.

Hundreds of millions of astonishing, terrifying visions emerged one after another. The Great Dao will of Tiangang Continent had descended!
As the Great Dao will appeared,
