Chapter 847 - 565: One Punch Kills the Heavenly Emperor, Ten Arrows Suppress Chaos!_2
However, Qin Zheng did not immediately answer his question. Instead, he scrutinized him for a few breaths, then returned his gaze to the current heavens and earth, and finally opened his mouth to speak:
"Have you seen anyone who transcends the Other Shore and can continue to stay in the Chaos Sea without ascending to the Nine Provinces?"
Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Emperor’s expression suddenly froze. Then he frowned and questioned in a skeptical tone, "You have not ascended to the Ancient Realm, how can you wield the Power of Time?"
Even though Qin Zheng could still wield the Power of Time and casually cast him back into the ’past,’ knowing Qin Zheng had not ascended to the Ancient Realm brought him some relief.
Since he hasn’t ascended to the Ancient Realm, even if he can wield the Power of Time, it must be limited and constrained. It’s impossible for his time to keep flowing backward indefinitely. This means I still have a chance!
Qin Zheng turned his head, glancing lightly at the Heavenly Emperor, then replied, "Who told you that without ascending to the Ancient Realm, one cannot wield the Power of Time?"
This former top adversary whom he viewed with trepidation and whose true strength and depth he never figured out is now just so.
Perhaps given the opponent’s accumulated depth, in a real confrontation, they wouldn’t be much weaker than him, but he has stepped into the river of time and can control time in limited areas, standing at a higher dimension.
As long as the Heavenly Emperor cannot step into the river of time, he will never be his opponent, and if he wishes, he could easily slay him!
But still...the opponent’s skill in hiding traces and aura is indeed top-notch. Qin Zheng has followed the causal connection on the opponent’s body to find five more hidden bodies.
Yet, Qin Zheng can still sense these five bodies aren’t all of the Heavenly Emperor’s, indicating there are bodies yet unfound, which is the reason he hasn’t acted to slay the Heavenly Emperor.
Without the causal connection, it would be even harder to find the other bodies, which wouldn’t count as completely slaying the Heavenly Emperor.
