During this period, countless methods were tried, and countless dangers were endured, yet the final threshold was never glimpsed, unable to complete the ultimate Body and Dao Integration.

Now, not only has he failed to break through, but he also suffers unprecedented heavy injuries, with nearly half of the Tao Origin shattered.

To heal his injuries and return to his peak, it's unknown how many tens of thousands of years it will take or how many cosmic treasures need to be sought to compensate for the origin.

On this foundation, attempting to charge into the elusive Immortal Realm is now tens or even hundreds of times more difficult.

Hope has become increasingly faint, almost to the point of non-existence.

Thinking of this, a profound sense of powerlessness and unwillingness, like a tidal wave, engulfed Taixu Divine Master's heart and mind.

In the end, he could only suppress all distracting thoughts and negative emotions in his heart, slowly closing his eyes filled with resentment and fatigue, beginning to mobilize the remaining void origin power within the Divine Country to silently repair his unbearably wounded self.

One must first survive to have a future to speak of.

...

Meanwhile.

The news that Taixu Divine Master was disastrously defeated by Gu Qingfeng on the Chaos Battlefield and eventually escaped back to the Divine Country with only a remnant body spread like a cosmic storm across the skies, reaching the Immortal Divine Country at a rapid speed.

"Boom!"

This news, like a gigantic stone thrown into a calm lake, caused an unprecedented upheaval within the entire Immortal Divine Country.

"Taixu Divine Master was defeated?"

"How is this possible! That being has been an ancient existence renowned on the Longevity Immortal Stele for a long time!"

"That Human Clan's Gu Qingfeng, has he truly grown so powerful? Even Taixu Divine Master isn't his match?"

"It's over—Even Taixu Divine Master is defeated, below the Immortal, who else can balance against this person?"

No one would have thought that Taixu Divine Master would end up in such a miserable plight.

It was initially believed that with Taixu Divine Master's unfathomable power and ancient foundation, suppressing a junior who had only cultivated for mere tens of millions of years would be an easy task.

Even if he couldn't be killed, it should have been a one-sided crush without suspense.

But until this bloody reality was laid before them, they suddenly realized they seem to have underestimated Mystic Sky Immortal Emperor!

The opponent's speed of power growth, along with their real combat strength, is truly shocking.

Within the Immortal Divine Hall.

The atmosphere was oppressive, akin to the deathly silence before a storm.

Sitting atop the divine seat, the Void Aspect Divine Master's aura, always cold and lifeless, suddenly became like eternal ice, seemingly dropping the entire hall's temperature to absolute zero.

He laughed in extreme anger, his voice like metal friction, sharp and icy.

"Good! Good! Good, Gu Qingfeng! Good, a Human Clan Demon! I didn't expect this junior's strength to have progressed to such an extent!

To defeat Taixu, his strength must be just a sliver away from true immortality now!"

With every "good" uttered, the killing intent in the Void Aspect Divine Master's eyes surged a notch.

By the end, that killing intent almost turned into tangible blood-colored radiance, flickering madly in his abyss-like pupils, cold and piercing, making the many Divine Lords standing below dare not even breathe audibly.

Upon receiving the news, the pent-up killing intent towards Gu Qingfeng in his heart exploded violently, like a detonated ammunition depot.

An extreme impulse clashed irrationally, wanting to disregard all costs immediately, striking with the force of thunder, to traverse the endless void and obliterate that Human Clan Demon completely.

No choice!

The potential and threat displayed by this Human Clan Demon were too enormous.

So much so that even he, an immortal being, felt a faint unease.

Now it's widely rumored outside that the opponent seems to be only at the Seven Tribulation Heavenly Venerable's cultivation, yet already possesses the terrifying strength to easily defeat a half-step Immortal.

It's utterly unprecedented, defying common sense!

If he's allowed to grow unchecked, one day, should he truly achieve the Eight Tribulations, even step into the Nine Tribulation Heavenly Venerate Realm, to what extent will his power soar?

By then, he might indeed be capable of counteracting and destroying true immortality.

Should he advance even further.

Stepping into the Immortal Level.

The Void Aspect Divine Master could hardly imagine the consequences.

With the peerless stance of invincibility he displayed at the same realm and the bizarre, powerful Netherworld Path, once achieving immortality, perhaps many elder immortals would find it challenging to match him!

For the Human Clan, it's a hope of rise; for the Evil God Clan, it's an impending doom.

In the past, facing such a world-altering demon, the Void Aspect Divine Master would have absolutely no hesitation to eradicate him at any cost before he could fully mature, to eradicate future trouble at its root.

But now...

The Void Aspect Divine Master's chest heaved violently, eventually forcibly containing the surging killing intent that almost broke out of his body.

Cannot act!

At least not now!

He doesn't believe anyone could, within a mere thirty billion years, breakthrough from Heavenly Venerate Realm to Immortal Realm, to reach the highest Immortal Twelve Realms.

As long as the opponent hasn't reached that supreme level, his threat is never too great, still within controllable limits.

Thirty billion years later, Emperor Ziwei is destined to fall under the Tribulation of Transcendence.

That will be the perfect moment for the Evil God Clan to come out in full force and wipe out the Human Clan entirely.

Before that, the Void Aspect Divine Master certainly doesn't wish, nor dare, to provoke the opponent easily and break the fragile balance.
