Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, God Emperor Yuanhong's cave abode.
God Emperor Yuanhong stood on a pavilion with Chen Shi and Chen Mian, watching God Emperor Shiji and Dongguan fight in the distance.
"How long do you think this Guantian can last against Hong Ji?" God Emperor Yuanhong asked with interest.
"Probably no more than three moves!" God Emperor Chen Shi said thoughtfully. "You and I both know Ji's strength. Even against a late God Emperor low-tier Hunyuan lifeform, he can hold out for quite a while.

"Surely that wasn't it." Chen Mian looked at this ancestor of his, whose strength was now not much different from his own.
"What other reason could there be?" God Emperor
