At Taoist Xu He's cry of alarm, Qin Heng stopped and withdrew the foot he had just placed inside the Jade Emperor Palace.
"I've said before that the Jade Emperor Palace is too small to hold me; it wouldn't dare let me in," he said calmly, looking at Taoist Xu He. "Now, I ask you, do you regret it?"
Although Qin Heng's current cultivation was only at the peak of Qi Refinement, his Dao Realm and the essence of his Primordial Spirit were genuinely Eternal. This was a lofty Daoist achievement transcending the Primordial Chaos Daluo Realm! A mere Mortal World temple dedicated to Jade Emperor Haotian simply couldn't withstand the divine pressure of his Dao Realm. That only the majority of the God Statues shattered was already a remarkably good outcome.
