Although King Shu was considered a talented individual, he was severely injured and his foundation damaged when he advanced, courtesy of Jiang Li. Yet, with the help of the Heavenly Monarch whom he submitted to, he still managed to have the basic combat power of a third grade.
If in the future, the Heavenly Monarch could support him in unifying Great Zhou's Jiangshan Mountain, King Shu might be able to enhance his power using Dao Fruit Divine Power just like the Emperor.
Unfortunately, that's only a possibility in the future.
The future is the future, now is now. Now, King Shu is dead.
While they were conversing on this side, on that side, life and death were already determined. In line with the Daoist Lord's words, it truly felt like, 'as the departed pass away, no one can escape the fate of mortality.'
