Chapter 1064 The Undeserved First Place
The trembling soul and body are both stronger.

Lin Yi's strike couldn't significantly affect Zhan Shi, who was far ahead in strength, but he knew very well how much of an impact Lin Yi's sword would have on his subordinates.

Their souls were severely weakened, and their bodies were corroded by the power of annihilation. When their souls and bodies reunited, they would be seriously injured. At that time, let alone chasing Lin Yi and the old man Gongshu, they would be lucky to even take care of themselves.

As for the old man Gongshu, Zhanli had always thought he was a strong player with average output, and even if he stood still and let him fight, he wouldn't be able to deal much damage.

As the saying goes, prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain.

Having experienced far more than just trembling, the old man Gongshu never cared what others said about him.

From beginning to end, all he thought about was how to lead the members of the Dark Rising Organization to greater heights and achieve their initial dream. Ever since he became one of the Seven Heroes, Zhan Li had been thinking about how to become the strongest person. His ambition was much greater than that of others.

Therefore, when the Seven Heroes compete against each other, they take it all very seriously.

He truly hadn't considered that these powerful figures, who had been famous for much longer than him, were holding back when they dueled with him.

Take Luang Phor for example. She was a former dragon god, and her physical strength was countless times greater than that of ordinary people. How could such an opponent easily lose to her in a duel?

"Trembling, bearing the title of the strongest does not mean you are the strongest in the entire Dark Rising. You are not now, and you probably won't be in the future either."

Zhanli is quite concerned about rankings.

After hearing what the old man Gongshu said, the trembling man's attention, which had been focused entirely on Lin Yi, was drawn back to the old man Gongshu.

"You damned old man, what did you say? I'm not the strongest? You're kidding me! I've been the strongest in Dark Rising for who knows how long. The entire Dark Rising organization, including the Gods, knows that I am Dark Rising's strongest force. If you say I'm not the strongest, then who is?!"

Sure enough, when it comes to matters related to strength, the deeply obsessive Zhan Li can no longer remain calm.

The old man Gongshu did not answer his question, but only focused on gathering his divine power.

An immense divine power, visible to the naked eye, gathered behind the old man Gongshu and gradually materialized.

The transparent frame began to appear, and as divine power enveloped it, the form of the moves was fully revealed.

It was a heavy cannon with a caliber of about ten meters, exuding a cyberpunk feel. The orange-red light flashing at the muzzle caused the surrounding space to distort uncontrollably.

That eerie light was like the crater of a volcano about to erupt; just by looking at it, one could imagine the terrifying power that would be unleashed from within.

Old man Gongshu is truly a man of great hidden talent!
Lin Yi used his All-Seeing Eye to look at the muzzle of the cyber cannon. Although he couldn't determine the exact damage value, the All-Seeing Eye told Lin Yi that the power was beyond his ability to withstand.

If one were to be hit by that terrifying cannon, they would likely be reduced to ashes.

This guy, who usually plays a support role, is actually quite extraordinary. Lin Yi couldn't help but admire him from the bottom of his heart. Only someone like Gongshu, who can restrain his brilliance, has the right to have the last laugh.

Seeing the cyber cannon pointed at his body, Trembling couldn't help but tremble, whether from fear or anger.

"Gongshu De, you old geezer, how dare you look down on me like that! You're asking for death!"

As members of the Seven Heroes, they didn't spar often, but they certainly did.

Zhan Li remembered that when Gongshu De fought him, he had said more than once that he was no match for Zhan Li because his attacks could not break through Zhan Li's defenses. At the time, Zhan Li was completely unaware of the old man Gongshu's forbearance and believed his words without the slightest doubt.

Looking back now, I realize that the old man Gongshu completely looked down on me, didn't take me seriously, and disdained to compete with me for the title of first place, which is why he didn't really fight me.

This was an absolute insult to Shivering.

“Young man, you are still young. I can understand that young people are impetuous. But I really don’t understand why you would kill your former comrade just because of your own unfounded speculation.”

"Do you really think I'm as scheming as a little kid like you? My departure from Anxing is entirely due to your faction's complete ignorance and arrogance, which made me unable to see a future for Anxing. Do you really think that after I said I was leaving, I would still show up and affect your prestige? You're really pathetic, you even have some inferiority complex."

Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.

Gongshu's words were like a sharp sword, piercing straight into my trembling chest.

The initial tremor was tinged with confidence.

After several failures, Trembling began to doubt his own abilities.

Why was he so eager to make a name for himself? Wasn't he trying to prove his ability and worth through this?

His absolute self-confidence, which came from the bottom of his heart, had long been worn away in the battle against the four Corpse Kings.

When the side of oneself that one least wants to face and that is most unknown to others is exposed, one's defenses crumble on the spot with trembling.

"Damn old man Gongshu, I'm going to kill you!"

Anger brought unimaginable power to Tremor, and in just two and a half seconds, he managed to merge his soul and body again, regaining control of his body.

The sudden onset of trembling caught both Lin Yi and Gongshu somewhat off guard, but fortunately, it wasn't a serious problem.

The cyberpunk-style cannon had already charged up and was successfully fired before the trembling soul returned to its body.

The roar of the giant cannon was deafening, and the scarlet flames illuminated the sky, completely covering the entire planet 478. The terrifying temperature caused all the exposed rare metals to melt into liquids of various colors.

Holy crap, this old man is awesome!
As Lin Yi exclaimed in surprise, he activated his divine power shield, enveloping himself within it.

As for trembling, that would be terrible.

He had just regained control of his body when the divine power compression cannon he was spewing was already at his chest.

Before he could even use his divine power to protect his entire body, he was completely swallowed up by that orange-red energy.

Looking at the endless orange-red surroundings and feeling the intense heat, Lin Yi couldn't help but marvel at just how powerful a god of top-tier divine power truly was.

Gongshu De even deliberately controlled the direction of his divine power output, so that Lin Yi was almost unharmed by his skills. However, Lin Yi still felt such terrifying power from Gongshu De. The strength of a top-level god was truly undeniable.
