Heading to the Ruins

"Who is it?" Chen Fan's heart tightened slightly. Even someone Fat Daoist feared so deeply had said that if he encountered this person, he should not hesitate—just turn around and leave.

Fat Daoist's expression turned grave. His eyes narrowed as he said in a low voice, "The Fighting God Monkey, Equal to Heaven!"

Chen Fan was immediately moved. "It too had its Dao essence stolen by the Heavenly Prodigy Rankings?"

It had to be said, if it was Equal to Heaven, then it truly would be difficult to match. With its divine abilities, it could very well look down upon all living beings. Even in its youth, it had been a terrifying existence.

Fat Daoist nodded lightly and said solemnly, "Back then, it was sent beneath the Enlightenment God Tree and never had the chance to erase its name. It only later learned that another version of itself existed in those ruins, so it went there in person. The result... neither could gain the upper hand."

"What?" Chen Fan was startled once more.

Yet he had never expected that even one as powerful as Equal to Heaven had been evenly matched against the false Equal to Heaven created by the Heavenly Dao.

Equal to Heaven personally went to the ruins back then and found its own duplicate. A terrifying battle erupted between
