Seeing that although the Light Cocoon had stirred, it would still take at least several more days to succeed, he finally felt reassured.
Seven Supreme Beings!
Seven Ultimate Dao divine weapons, Imperial Dao Heavy Weapons!
With such a lineup, let alone a Great Accomplished Saint Body, even a legendary "immortal" descending into the world might have to think twice.
At that moment, the Five-Element Saint Spirit beside Sophora Venerable fixed his gaze on Tan Lin, his voice hoarse and ancient:
"Great Accomplished Golden Body... hm, no, that is not right. Nowadays, the outside world calls you some kind of Sacred Body nonsense..."
He paused, a hint of probing flashing through his eyes.
"That Devouring Heaven Woman suppressed you for ten thousand years. Though I do not know why, you still insist on protecting her now?
"I am becoming more and more curious. What exactly is the relationship between you two...?"
The moment those words fell,
Not only did the other six Supreme Beings prick up their ears, but all the mighty figures outside watching this battle did the same.
Yes, that Female Emperor had suppressed this Great Accomplished Saint Body for ten thousand years.
Rumor had it that she imprisoned him beneath the Abyss. The sight of his emergence earlier was still vivid in their minds: nine Immortal Gold Divine Chains had pierced through his body. It could only be called utterly "cruel."
Yet now, as the Female Emperor underwent her transformation, the Sacred Body was still risking his life to stand before her Light Cocoon, even willing to become enemies with seven Supreme Beings.
Why... why was that?
Were these two truly only fellow disciples?
Or...
Did they share some even more complicated feelings?
Or perhaps they were simply Dao companions?
There was some unknown entanglement between them...
Whoosh!
