"Then next time—once we invite the Heavenly Yao Emperor over, we can have a proper fight. How about it?"
Even now, Qin Jiuge was unwilling to continue fighting. Even if he used the King of Zhenbei before him as a whetstone, his interest was not particularly strong.
Who would have thought that the King of Zhenbei would suddenly speak again and directly reject Qin Jiuge's proposal.
Qin Jiuge sighed. Then, he could only give the other man a proper fight.
The air roared. Qin Jiuge stood with his hands behind his back, his bearing unfathomable. Pitch-black lightning crackled and flashed around him, making him resemble a Lightning Dharma King, a god descending into the world.
Qin Jiuge mobilized all the power in his body, and his aura rose once more. It continued climbing until it reached a level infinitely close to the Half-step Great Emperor Realm before barely stopping.
Qin Jiuge let out a soft sigh.
He did not wish to do this either, but the man before him possessed the strength of the Half-step Great Emperor Realm. If he did not bring out all his trump cards, including Demon God Power and the Kunpeng Treasure Technique, he would likely be utterly defeated within a few exchanges.
How would he use this whetstone then?
By that point, forget about whether the whetstone could sharpen a blade.
He would become a thoroughly, truly dead man. That was the most likely outcome.
"Interesting."
Seeing that Qin Jiuge had finally become serious, the King of Zhenbei's expression grew increasingly solemn, while his interest intensified.
He lightly tapped the ground with the tip of his foot. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth around him brightened, then underwent a tremendous upheaval. Wind and clouds rolled backward, and heaven and earth trembled.
