"Why does this thing look somewhat familiar?"
Jie Tianran gazed at the phantom of the Fierce Beast shielding Chu Feng, lost in thought.
Yet all he could think was that it seemed familiar — he simply couldn't recall where he had seen this Fierce Beast before.
"Chu Feng, you really do have quite a few trump cards. But in this old man's eyes, the power of this thing is time-limited."
"How long can it protect you?"
Jie Tianran asked.
"Jie Tianran, the power of the Age of Gods — did it only boost your combat strength by a single rank?"
Chu Feng countered.
He could tell that Jie Tianran's avatar was formidable, having been formed through a special treasure as its foundation.
Even before it transformed into an avatar, it must have taken another form — one possessing extraordinary speed. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to arrive here so quickly.
But at the same time, Chu Feng could also discern that this avatar's cultivation did not originate from the treasure itself, but rather from Jie Tianran's own cultivation.
Jie Tianran's cultivation remained at the fifth rank of the Heavenly Dragon realm, which was consistent with the information the Seven Realms Sacred Palace had provided him.
However, Jie Tianran's heaven-defying combat power through his formation techniques had been elevated by two full ranks.
That was why his current cultivation appeared as it did.
On the surface, it was the seventh rank of the Heavenly Dragon realm.
In reality, it was the fifth rank of the Heavenly Dragon realm, supplemented by two tiers of heaven-defying combat power.
"Chu Feng, still thinking about the Age of Gods?"
"Still bitter over your defeat?"
A rare look of mockery surfaced on Jie Tianran's face.
"You got a few small benefits and now you're getting cocky?"
"In my opinion, you won't be able to obtain the true power of the Age of Gods either."
Chu Feng said.
This was also a conjecture that Chu Feng had formed based on his own observations.
"Hahahahaha..."
But upon hearing these words, Jie Tianran threw his head back and laughed toward the sky.
After laughing for a moment, he turned his gaze back to Chu Feng.
"Chu Feng, since you want to know so badly,"
"then this old man will show you exactly what I've obtained."
The moment Jie Tianran's words fell, he took out a talisman paper from his Universe Bag. The talisman paper soared forth and immediately transformed into an observation formation array.
And the position that observation formation pointed to was none other than the Era of Gods.
The crowd stared at the observation formation. Not just Chu Feng—even the others had expressions that shifted in response.
Jie Tianran's true body, along with the colossal phantom radiating around him, had already ascended the platform.
He stood just one step away from the throne.
Enveloping him was a formidable aura, and both its shape and essence were utterly identical to that massive phantom of the Era of Gods.
The impression was as if Jie Tianran had truly merged with the Era of Gods.
And atop the high platform above the Era of Gods, the direction toward which Jie Tianran's projected phantom was now gazing was precisely toward their location.
In the very next moment, an even more astonishing scene unfolded.
The starry sky trembled. Even from this great distance, a faint vibration could be felt.
They saw the colossal phantom of the Era of Gods seemingly come alive, its massive form beginning to move.
Following that, it even took steps, moving in the direction of the Bloodline Galactic River.
Although its movements were extremely slow, its sheer size meant that with each step it took, it could cross countless star worlds.
Such a speed of movement was far faster than any teleportation array.
It probably wouldn't be long before it arrived at the direction of the Bloodline Galactic River.
"Your grandfather... has he truly already obtained the power of the Era of Gods?"
Even Eggie was getting a little panicked.
No one knew what the true power of the Era of Gods truly contained.
But everyone knew that power was incomparably formidable.
If Jie Tianran had truly mastered the true power of the Era of Gods...
Even if Eggie used a life-risking method, she had no confidence she could defeat him.
Not for any other reason — it was simply that the power displayed by the Era of Gods so far was far too overwhelming.
"Chu Feng, now do you know what this old man has obtained?"
"The Era of Gods has merged with this old man as one. I am the sole god of this era."
"No matter what fortune or trump card lies within that anomaly, you cannot possibly surpass this old man."
Jie Tianran said to Chu Feng with undisguised smugness.
"Fortune? Trump card?"
"So after all that, you worthless grandfather actually thought the anomaly held your trump card?"
"No wonder, despite being in the Era of Gods itself, you still resorted to using a treasure to power a clone against you."
Eggie sighed with disdain.
Suddenly, Jie Tianran swept his great sleeve through the air, as though issuing some kind of command.
Following that, massive barrier warships burst forth from the starry sky one after another.
