Pang Jian introduced a stream of fate and had just forged his Divine Tao when he surpassed Li Chu, which was unexpected.
Many True Gods privately believed that Pang Jian's victory might have relied on the sharpness of the Divine Sword, while Li Chu, who created his Divine Tao through the Tao of Plant, did not possess a similarly weighty Divine Artifact.
Even so, Li Wang still acknowledged Pang Jian's identity as a True God.
Inside the Observatory, he readjusted the stone pillar symbolizing Fan Ao's status, signaling his recognition that Pang Jian was now qualified to speak with them as an equal.
But, the news that Pang Jian was now revealing once again overturned his understanding of Pang Jian.
It was impossible for Pang Jian, who could defeat Li Chu, to be beaten by a puppet body of an Alien God, his Divine Body would not have been so severely damaged.
If it wasn't the puppet body, then it must be the Alien God's true form.
