Chapter 1370: The Fetus Descends

Heavenly Dragon City

When the humongous eye turned toward him, Li Jingzhe, who was standing atop the Heavenly Dragon Pavilion, felt as though the entire world had gone silent.

The apocalyptic rain that caused even the void to shake had subsided and the dense corruption that lay outside the city seemed to have turned gentle.

The countless Others that emerged from the corruption began to prostrate themselves on the ground, giving off a pious attitude.

The numerous experts in the city were shocked by this development. They felt a sense of unease as this scene was simply too abnormal.

Li Jingzhe's wizened face turned solemn. He could sense that a terrifying aura was condensing.

When he raised his head and looked towards the gap in the World's End River where the three-pupil eye was, he could sense its gaze penetrating through the void and locking onto him.

It contained power that even the Quasi-Triple Crown Li Jingzhe felt pressured by. This was something he had not experienced in years.

So long as the Heavenly Emperors did not make a move, there were few in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent that could incite such a feeling within him. "Tri-Pupil Enigmatic Fetus Grand Devil King," Li Jingzhe softly murmured to himself. It was a Heavenly Emperor-level existence, and it was a true peak existence even amongst the Others in the Shadow World.

Thus, its mere gaze brought about an incredible sense of oppression and terror.

Meanwhile, this particular Grand Devil King was focused right on him.

“Wah! Wah!”

The fetus then began to bawl as loudly as it could. As its cries rang out, all the worldly natural energy within the World's End River Region was violently agitated. It then transformed into innumerable torrents of light which were then swallowed into the mouth of the fetus.

After which, it began to shake its immature body and stretched its feet. The gray fetus then began to step forward, its body starting to swell. Ten steps later, the fetus transformed into a gray-robed man who silently stood in the sky above Heavenly Dragon City. The man's eyes were dark gray and his appearance was average. He had a slight smirk on his face as he stood in the void with majestic amounts of vitality radiating from his body. If everyone had not personally seen the human fetus transform into its current shape, they would have assumed the man was a King from the human race.

The gray-robed man completely ignored Heavenly Dragon City's countless terrified gazes. His focus was on Li Jingzhe.

"Li Jingzhe, do you plan to stop me from descending?" it asked.

Although this was the first time it had even set his eyes on the old man, it was able to glean information about him from the frightened emotions of the crowd. The gray-robed man smiled. "Actually, our strength is relatively comparable right now. This is your last chance to leave the World's End River Region. Otherwise, if things drag on... then your Quasi-Triple Crown bones will be buried here."

Li Jingzhe remained silent. Worldly natural energy surged around him, looking as though a massive energy tide was forming in the world. Three crowns appeared above him, each giving off a pristine aura. Each wisp of pure energy contained energy fluctuations that would shock even a ninth-grade Duke.

However, the third crown was relatively illusory when compared to the other two. Li Jingzhe stretched out his right hand, and an ordinary-looking bamboo pole appeared in his grasp. As the bamboo pole gently swayed, the void seemed to be screaming due to it bearing an immense pressure. This was the Kingslayer Staff! At the same time, he stretched out his left hand, and a crimson veil appeared. Within it were nine coiled flaming dragons. This was the Nine Dragon Fire Sword Veil. Clearly, even someone as strong as him didn't dare to underestimate the Tri-Pupil Enigmatic Fetus. He had directly pulled out his two strongest venerated heirlooms.[1]

Li Jingzhe took a step forward and appeared in the void above Heavenly Dragon City. This sort of battle was something that even the Golden Dragonscale Cloud Formation was unable to effectively influence.

The old man stood outside the city with a bamboo pole in one hand and a veil in the other. He calmly observed the gray-robed man as his indifferent voice rang out.

"Greetings, Grand Devil King. I am the Dragon's Fang Lineage’s Lineage Chief, Li Jingzhe. I have no ambition to protect all of the hundreds of millions of living beings that occupy this world. I only wish to make sure that the children in my family remain safe and sound. This is why even though you are a Heavenly Emperor... I... will fight you to the very end."
