A fierce, blinding light instantly surged from the Gods and Devils Spear.
As though something within this spear had been awakened for the first time, it suddenly erupted with unimaginably terrifying combat power.
Squelch!
The spear flashed, bursting forth with unimaginable speed, and golden blood instantly sprayed everywhere!
"What?"
The Great Emperor's eyes widened in disbelief. He actually saw that a small section of the spearhead had already sunk into his lower abdomen!
Though it had only penetrated three inches into his flesh, it shocked him far too deeply.
He could not understand how Xu Xuan could possibly have truly injured him!
"Again!"
Xu Xuan shot backward, pulling the Gods and Devils Spear out of the Great Emperor's body.
A small trail of blood scattered, yet within that brief moment, the wound in the Great Emperor's lower abdomen had already healed completely!
However, when he looked at Xu Xuan again, his gaze had grown solemn.
Xu Xuan's strength, his methods, and his weapon were actually all so powerful!
Most crucially, he was only a projection at the moment and could not unleash his true body's actual strength!
Worst of all, as a projection, he could not remain here for long.
Soon, he would turn to ash and smoke, disappearing forever.
Even if, in the future, his true body found Xu Xuan and killed him completely.
What would that have to do with this Projection Clone of his?
"I truly underestimated you!"
The Great Emperor Projection drew a slight breath. He looked solemnly at Xu Xuan, without a trace of arrogance or contempt remaining.
Xu Xuan's heart instantly sank, and even his blazing fighting spirit diminished somewhat.
If such a terrifying enemy truly treated him with respect when attacking and remained strict in defense, he really would have nothing left to
