Four! Million! Years! At! The! Zenith!

A white colt flashed through a gap; the golden sun and jade moon raced on.

More than a million years passed.

Now that he had three Grand Divine Abilities in hand, Chen Jichuan finally felt a little more confident.

So Chen Jichuan continued building his foundations and sharpening his abilities.

The Five-Five Great Expansion True Scripture.
