In front of his subjects, Wu Tianming put his two fingers together and unleashed a purple-golden sword beam from his fingertips. It sped away like a mad serpent and brushed past the towering gatehouse at the palace's main entrance, shattering half of it. Then, it flew some two thousand miles away and pierced through a lofty mountain on one side of the valley, leaving a transparent hole about one mile in diameter.
After the strike, Wu Tianming slowly rose to his feet and stretched himself. All his joints rang crisply, and at the same time, a mighty wave of immortal energy emanated from his body, startling all the courtiers. In just a quarter of an hour, a pill that Wu Qi called the Nine Rotations Pill had given the emperor, who was only a Nascent Soul cultivator, the overall strength of a third-tier Gold Immortal.
