"There's no mistaking it!"
Elder Xuanji had originally been an Emperor-to-be himself, so he naturally understood their power. He said with absolute certainty, "Unfortunately, the Great Dao of heaven and earth is restricted in this Lower Realm. Otherwise, with his strength, he could potentially break through and become an Emperor-to-be."
"You mean he could break through to Emperor-to-be?"
Qin Wuyou stared at the withered bones that seemed on the verge of decay, his eyes filled with shock. He could hardly believe that this skeleton, whose Life Essence was clearly waning and whose blood essence seemed almost exhausted, still had a chance to become an Emperor-to-be!
But he also knew that after reaching the Supreme Realm, cultivators tempered their bodies and souls with the power of heaven and earth, gaining all manner of divine abilities, such as regrowing severed fingers and regenerating from a drop of blood.
Thus, even though the Supreme of the Xuantian Holy Land before him was nothing but a skeleton, he could easily grow new flesh and restore his complete body as long as his Life Essence had not been entirely exhausted.
Yet the Supreme of the Xuantian Holy Land seemed to be deliberately maintaining his skeletal appearance, giving others the impression that his Life Essence had run dry and he could no longer even rebuild his flesh.
Could this fellow be trying to lure someone into a trap?
Qin Wuyou's eyes lit up. He seemed to have guessed what the Supreme of the Xuantian Holy Land intended.
The fellow was deliberately making everyone think he was about to die, nothing more than a spent arrow at the end of its flight, when he was actually plotting against the Supreme of the Lingxiao Holy Land.
With that suspicion in mind, Qin Wuyou breathed a sigh of relief
