Library of Heaven's Path

“You aren’t Kong shi. Who in the world are you?” Zhang Xuan asked with narrowed eyes.

He had thought it was weird how the other party had never appeared even though there were so many ideal opportunities for him to strike. It turned out that he had been hiding in the void all along, waiting for the moment that he obtained the Aura of Divinity to snatch it from him!

However… when Zhang Xuan first arrived in the area, he had made sure to examine his surroundings carefully, and he did not notice any folded space or the like. Just where in the world did the other party appear from, and how did he manage to traverse space to get there?

More importantly, if the will that he had encountered in the palace was real, it was likely that the person standing before him was a fake!

That would explain why the other party was unaware of the details regarding Xuanjiang City’s Teleportation Portal, as well as why the will that he had encountered in the palace seemed to be unsure about the existence of the Heavens’ Imperfections.

“Who else can I be if not Kong shi?” The face of the person in the air warped in anger. “I am him. I have always been him!”

Hula!

Amid his furious rage, he thrust his palm downward.

The air currents had always been chaotic in the area. That palm strike caused more and more dimension rifts to appear all around, leaving Zhang Xuan not daring to advance any further.

He has indeed gotten much stronger! Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes.

The fact that the other party was able to shatter space so easily showed that he was much stronger compared to the time he was facing his clone.

Nevertheless, there was no hint of Heavens’ Order in his palm strike, and the battle technique that he used did not harness the essence of the world. That meant that he was not using a Heaven’s Path battle technique.

Furthermore, as powerful as his attack was, it was not to the extent where it was able to influence the laws around him.

There’s no doubt about it—he’s indeed a fake…

Since Kong shi possessed a fragment of the heavens as well, he was naturally able to use Heaven’s Path battle techniques.

He had wondered about that previously, too, but he had not been too certain as he had never seen anyone aside from him using Heaven’s Path battle techniques. As such, he had mistaken the other party’s attacks to have reached the level of Heaven’s Path battle techniques previously.

However, after witnessing what Kong shi’s will was capable of, it was apparent that the attacks of the person before him were lacking.

This only pointed to a single possibility…

Even though he refused to admit to it, the person standing before him was indeed a fake!

“Return the Aura of Divinity to me!”

Zhang Xuan knew that this was not a good time for his mind to be wandering. As he brandished the Tongshang Sword, he beckoned his clone to move alongside him. With a barrage of swift slashes, he formed a net of sword qi around the fake Kong shi.

A Heart of Intertwined Threads!

He executed the sword art that he had just comprehended without any hesitation.

He knew that he was facing a difficult opponent, such that the Gods’ Sword Intent that he had comprehended would not be much use in the battle. Thus, he used the strongest move he knew of from the very start of the battle.

“Amazing swordsmanship… However, I won’t be fighting with you today. Once I become a god myself, your library will become mine. No one in this world will be able to stop me!” Kong shi burst into laughter as he leaped back into the mirror and vanished from view.

“Sh*t!” Zhang Xuan’s face turned livid.
