unleashed various attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Gu Qing Shan noticed something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——more Samsara origin power was flowing into the motorcycle from the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He patted the motorcycle, causing metallic structures to emerge from all around it and transformed into a teardrop-shaped sports car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Readjusting his seat, Gu Qing Shan slammed on the acceleration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sports car gave off a stifled engine roar before kicking off a thick cloud of dust and speeding off, leaving the heavenly

almost unpredictable speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost at the very same time, the white light struck the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An entire region had been engulfed in boiling magma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world was now a sea of fire!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan slammed his feet on the acceleration pedal again———\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Continue the derivation!”

from the back of the mobile mech suit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very moment before he entered the sea of magma, Gu Qing Shan leapt into the air and left the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the night sky, Gu Qing Shan continued to fly at maximum speed, once again distancing itself from the Immortal City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heavenly Emperor’s voice became harrowing:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「 So... you were actually attempting to establish an Immortal City as well... then there are no other choices... 」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brilliantly shining Immortal City also slowed down, and the heavenly beings who took flight earlier began to retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They seemed to be preparing something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Gu Qing Shan was feeling confused about their actions, a notification popped up in the void of space:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The other party had
