"You speak boldly, daring to seize the body of the Stone Man King..." the Nine-Headed Snake said, clearly doubting that the other party could accomplish such a feat.
"Though I no longer possess my former boundless power, as an embodiment of resentment, I am omnipresent. Seizing a battle body? That's nothing to me!" His tone brimmed with satisfaction as he nodded. "Excellent. The ultimate Stone Man King fighter body—comparable to the Heavenly Emperor who once killed me."
"What?!"
Xiao Chen and the others were stunned. The one who had killed the Lord of the Death Palace turned out to be the Heavenly Emperor, an astonishing revelation.
"Is the Heavenly Emperor still alive?"
"He created the Most Evil Place in this world. Whether he's alive or dead, I don't know. But I do know that you're about to die. I sense a trace of his aura on you—likely from the same world he came from."
