Seeing this, the dozen or so God Kings all knew that the Divine Emperor had made his move.
And this was a critical moment—he absolutely could not be disturbed.
Someone shouted, "Everyone, we will protect the Divine Emperor to the death! He must not be disturbed in the slightest!"
"Protect him to the death!" everyone shouted in unison.
They all stood before the Divine Emperor, facing Xu Zimo head-on.
Yet when Xu Zimo saw this, he smiled. "Don't worry. I'll give him a chance."
"But before that, killing you annoying ants will be more than enough."
He flicked his right hand.
The cuff in his hand burst with fierce wind, transforming into countless sharp arrows.
A giant hand descended from the heavens and, as though crushing a chick to death, squeezed one of the God Kings apart on the spot—beyond even resurrection.
Then he struck again with his right palm.
As though swatting an ant to death.
He directly killed another God King on the spot as well.
It was clear that these God Kings, famed throughout the outside world and serving as high-ranking decision-makers among the gods,
were nothing more than ants and vermin in Xu Zimo's hands.
Seeing Xu Zimo able to erase them with a casual gesture,
the God Kings' hearts trembled in fear.
All of them began burning their essence blood, strengthening their power to the utmost limit.
Their essence blood burned rapidly.
And the God Kings' strength rose by multiples.
Yet before Xu Zimo, it was still utterly useless.
Xu Zimo was like an uncrossable chasm, barring their way.
For many people,
there would always be certain people they encountered in life
whom they could never defeat, even if they risked their lives.
Xu Zimo was one such person.
Boom...
A violent explosion rang out
