Chapter 593: The Gap in Strength


Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty!

In the Imperial Palace Immortal Hall, Gu Qingfeng sat cross-legged, surrounded by Dao Rhythm that surged like a tide.

Beneath the Imperial Robe, his body was already covered with numerous cracks, as if golden Immortal Blood was pulsing through them. Each crack harbored terrifying Dao Rhythms, like maggots eating into the bone, impossible to remove.

These Dao Rhythms contained an immortal will, even a tiny trace was enough to leave the Nine Tribulations Great Heavenly Venerate helpless.

They wandered within Gu Qingfeng's body like living creatures, ceaselessly eroding his vitality and preventing the healing of his injuries.

Thus, Gu Qingfeng communicated with the Underworld and invoked the Power of Yellow Springs to wash over his body.

The murky river water flowed out from the void, surrounding him, emitting a splashing sound.

Every drop of Yellow Springs Water harbored the power of death and reincarnation, fiercely colliding with those immortal Dao Rhythms.

The Power of Yellow Springs acted like a precise carving knife, slowly eradicating these lingering Dao Rhythms.

This process was extremely slow, as the immortal Dao Rhythms were too stubborn, and their eradication consumed a significant amount of Yellow Springs' power.

It might take a year, or perhaps a hundred thousand years.

Under the wash of Yellow Springs, these indefatigable Dao Rhythms finally began to loosen, disintegrate, and dissipate.

When the last trace of Dao Rhythm vanished, a vast surge of vitality emerged from his body.

This vitality was like the warm sun of early spring, instantly sweeping away the gloom within.

All the cracks and injuries healed at a rate visible to the naked eye, fissures sealed, and the skin became smooth as jade once more.

Moments later, Gu Qingfeng's wounds were fully healed, and he opened his tightly closed eyes, exhaling a breath of impure air.

The breath carried remnants of immortal Dao Rhythms, causing the surrounding space to subtly warp as soon as it emerged.

"Finally recovered!"

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, like two dazzling stars lighting up the darkness.

Yet immediately, Gu Qingfeng remembered something, his expression full of apprehension.

"Such an Immortal God Master, I thought I had already estimated the power of the Immortal Great Heavenly Venerate as highly as possible, but now it seems I still underestimated the prowess of such a figure."

Gu Qingfeng murmured, recalling the terrifying power of that single finger.

That finger seemed to contain the weight of the entire Universe, making his Divine Soul tremble.

"No wonder they say beneath immortality, all are ants. In the face of such beings, the Rashamon Divine Master and the Ten Thousand Buddha Venerable tier of Evil Gods are truly insignificant!"

Reflecting on the clash in the Chaos Void, Gu Qingfeng's face was even more filled with dread.

That battle was brief, yet it was far more dangerous than any other fight he had ever experienced.

Such opponents were the most formidable entities he had encountered in all his years of cultivation, without exception.

The so-called top-tier Divine Lords, even the ranks of the Ten Thousand Buddha Venerable, were utterly insignificant.

Of course.

Perhaps entities from the Old Underworld, like the Ten Halls Yama or the previous Lord of Mount Tai, could rival such beings or even surpass their might.

But the problem is that these entities have long perished.

The fallen immortals.

They cannot be compared to living immortals.

Originally, Gu Qingfeng thought that with his current strength, even if he couldn't match the Immortal Great Heavenly Venerate, he shouldn't be too far off.

After all, he could easily slay the Ten Thousand Buddha Venerable, a peak Nine Tribulations entity, implying he had touched the threshold of immortality.

But when it came to the actual confrontation, he realized he was wrong.

And terribly wrong.

The might of the Immortal Great Heavenly Venerate was entirely beyond his imagination.

It was a fundamental gap in the level of existence, not something simple power accumulation could bridge.

Facing such beings, even with all the cards at his disposal, Gu Qingfeng stood not a chance.

The Eighteen Layers of Hell shattered in an instant, Yellow Springs Water was forcibly suppressed, and all resistance seemed utterly feeble before that finger.

If not for the fact that the figure acted remotely, escaping would have been challenging.

Remote action inevitably faced distance limitations, and its power would be significantly reduced, yet even so, that finger almost claimed his life.

Despite that, he still sustained heavy injuries.

That remote finger almost killed him on the spot.

Immortal Dao Rhythms behaved like the most vicious curse, causing havoc within him, and if not for the Yellow Springs' protection, he would have been annihilated.

If it weren't for the crucial moment where Gu Qingfeng used the Power of Yellow Springs to fend off a little and granted himself an opportunity to escape, he might have already perished there.

The momentary life-and-death crisis still haunts him whenever he recalls it.

"Immortal Great Heavenly Venerate... this tier of power is beyond the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld Path's reach.

To truly contend with such beings, one must at least break through the Netherworld Path to the Ninth Layer, then perhaps there would be some chance!"

Gu Qingfeng pondered, his thirst for power reaching unprecedented levels.

In this world of survival of the fittest, strength is the fundamental basis for everything.

Without sufficient strength, even safeguarding one's life is impossible.

No wonder, the gap is too vast.

Even if the Netherworld Path is an Order Dao, the power of the Eighth Level struggles to compete with an Immortal Great Heavenly Venerate.

Order Dao, though powerful, endures within the realm of Heavenly Venerates, whereas immortality transcends this tier.

Only by reaching the Ninth Layer can one have a chance to contend.
