Six Hundred Million Years
"Good timing!"
Zhou Zheng faced four Puppet of the Holy City Lord Level, and his face showed no fear whatsoever.
He immediately unleashed his Three Heads Six Arms supernatural power, wielding six Destiny Divine Weapon, and with the Xuan Ling's Wings flapping behind him, he instantly charged forward.
A great battle suddenly broke out. Although they were all at the Holy City Lord Level, Zhou Zheng fought against four opponents and was not at a disadvantage at all. In fact, he was very relaxed.
Because these four Puppet couldn't even force Zhou Zheng to use his two life-saving techniques: Immortal Body and Myriad Shadow Avatar.
Of course, this is not surprising.
Even among peak Dao Lord, the difference between their upper and lower limits is enormous, and the same is true for the Holy City Lord.
Zhou Zheng's current strength is not top-tier among the Holy City Lord, but it is not weak either. These four Puppet are the most ordinary Holy City Lord, or even blank Holy City Lord.
Like the Holy City Lord who Dao Merge the Dao Lord and attained enlightenment, they accumulate many treasures over countless years. If a real battle were to break out, no one would know what they would pull out.
Moreover, the true Holy City Lord all cultivate powerful secret techniques and nurture their Destiny Divine Weapon.
Especially the Destiny Divine Weapon, which is even more crucial.
People like Zhou Zheng and Ji Ning, who are only at the peak Dao Lord, have already cultivated their Destiny Divine Weapon quite well. Those Holy City Lord are not only strong, but also live longer. How could they not cultivate their Destiny Divine Weapon?
A well-cultivated Destiny Divine Weapon can easily increase its owner's attack power by several times.
While a power increase of several times does not necessarily mean a power increase of several times, it certainly means a significant increase in strength.
If facing a proper Holy City Lord, Zhou Zheng is not afraid of a one-on-one fight, but if he were surrounded by four people, he would probably only be able to rely on the life-saving ability of the Space-Time Dao to keep fighting.
However, the four Puppet, Holy City Lord Level, clearly lacked the ability to force Zhou Zheng to merely save his own life.
Of course, while these four Puppet couldn't do anything to Zhou Zheng, Zhou Zheng couldn't do anything to them either for the time being.
These Puppet are all at the level of the Holy City Lord, not like the three half-baked Silver-robed Dao Lord. Even in a one-on-one fight, Zhou Zheng could easily defeat them, but capturing them alive would be difficult.
Facing four opponents alone, he wasn't even thinking about capturing them alive immediately.
Of course, Zhou Zheng wasn't in a hurry, because he had a lot of room for improvement right now!
Having witnessed the Supreme Dao, Zhou Zheng not only broke through to become Four-step Dao Lord, but also had no problem breaking through to the fourth level with the remaining major techniques.
Furthermore, the Three Powers Unity Technique has no bottlenecks between the same stages; given enough time, Zhou Zheng has the potential to create an even stronger move.
At that time, his strength will undergo a transformation.
Therefore, Zhou Zheng was not in a hurry at all; on the contrary, he felt that the pressure from the four Emperor-level Puppet was not enough.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Five figures were fighting each other at an extremely fast speed in the Void. While they were fighting, Zhou Zheng was also provoking them.
"Is that all you've got? You're utterly useless, wasting such powerful Puppet bodies! Once I capture you, I'll erase your Puppet spirits and then create new ones."
Zhou Zheng's voice was very calm, without much fluctuation, but when it fell into the ears of the four Emperor-level Puppet, it was like a knife, stabbing them hard in the heart.
What are Puppet most afraid of?
What I fear most is being disliked and having my Puppet spirit erased.
The true strength of Puppet, especially Emperor-level Puppet, lies in its Puppet body. As for the Puppet spirit, it doesn't contribute much to the Puppet's power. Once the old Puppet spirit is erased, the powerful Puppet body can quickly give birth to a new Puppet.
However, although it was born from the same Puppet body, the new Puppet spirit had no relation to the previous Puppet spirit.
Therefore, when Zhou Zheng said this, he directly touched on the most sensitive spot of the four Emperor-level Puppet.
"You're asking for it!!"
"Brothers, kill him!"
"."
The four Puppet, each at the Holy City Lord Level, attacked frantically, several times more frantically than before.
Previously, they had thought that Zhou Zheng could fight with them for several Chaos Epoch and give them some fun, but now, they just want to kill Zhou Zheng and make him regret it.
Unfortunately, the four Puppet were unaware that this was exactly what Zhou Zheng wanted. He had previously felt the pressure wasn't enough, but now it had become a little too much.
But that wasn't enough; Zhou Zheng continued to provoke them.
On the other side—
The Sect Master Jiu Chen, who originally intended to find a way to capture the other Emperor-level Puppet alive, looked towards the Core Land in astonishment. According to his idea, Zhou Zheng should have easily defeated the last Silver-robed Dao Lord. Who would have thought that he would actually be caught in a fierce battle?
"The Ancestral Land of the Xis Race still has such a powerful Puppet?" The Sect Master Jiu Chen's expression turned slightly serious, but after watching the battle in the distance for a while, he breathed a sigh of relief. Zhou Zheng seemed to be unharmed.
"Dao Lord Cheng Tian, are you alright?" Sect Master Jiu Chen asked using a communication artifact.
"Don't worry, I'll use these four Puppet to hone my skills!" Zhou Zheng said simply, and the Sect Master Jiu Chen immediately understood. He then stopped paying attention to what was happening there.
Given Zhou Zheng Zheng's current strength, it's indeed difficult for him to encounter an evenly matched opponent. Given this rare opportunity, it's perfectly normal for him to want to hone his skills.
Or rather, this is what Dao Lord should do.
"I need to hurry too!" The Sect Master Jiu Chen's gaze swept in all directions as he began searching for a target.
Time continued to pass, and Zhou Zheng fought against four Puppet of the Holy City Lord Level time and time again.
Of course, it's "times and times," not "all the time"!
The reason is simple: Zhou Zheng cannot sustain a prolonged and continuous battle.
The Three Powers Unity Technique requires Heartforce, and the amount consumed is extremely large.
Back then, when the Heart Sword Emperor sparred with the three great Dominators, the three great Dominators admitted that the Heart Sword Emperor was on the same level as them, while the Heart Sword Emperor said that he had lost.
The reasons behind this are unknown to anyone except the parties involved.
However, Zhou Zheng speculated that the enormous Heartforce exertion, making it impossible to continue attacking, might be one of the reasons.
Zhou Zheng was only at the second stage of the Three Powers Unity Technique at this moment, so his energy consumption was naturally not as high as that of the Heart Sword Emperor, but he could not ignore this energy consumption either.
Therefore, after a long period of fighting, Zhou Zheng would often fight for several years before leaving the Core Land to rest and take the opportunity to comprehend the Ultimate Space-Time Dao. Of course, Zhou Zheng would also ponder the second form of "The Path to Godhood".
Because he had previously watched the "Claw Dao" of the Supreme Bolin, he had gained many insights into the cultivation of the Ultimate Space-Time Dao, so his progress was extremely rapid.
Needless to say, the Three Powers Unity Technique, "The Path to Godhood," has been steadily progressing, even though the creation of the second form was quite difficult.
And in such cultivation, time passed incredibly quickly; in the blink of an eye, nearly 600 million years had Past.
