On the Path to Immortality.
Void extinguished.
Great Dao collapsed.
Only fourty-two Chaos Demon Gods’ powers rampaged, Gu Qingyang’s physical body shattered as he fought fiercely with other Upper Realm powerhouses.
With a middle-grade seventeenth-tier combat strength dominating its tier, neither Daoist Ancestor Xuanqing nor other Harmonization Immortal Venerables were Gu Qingyang’s match in one-on-one combats.
However.
Now nine Harmonization Immortal Venerables joined hands.
The remaining Saint Immortal Kings were attacking the Heavenly Dao Domain together, trying to break the confinement of the Divine Tree and directly kill into the starry sky of the Lower Realm.
Despite Gu Qingyang’s middle-grade seventeenth-tier combat strength, he was completely suppressed now. If it weren’t for the powerful force of the Chaos Atlas and the foundation of the forty-two Chaos Demon God’s Dao, he’d probably have been defeated and perished long ago.
"Boom!"
Gu Qingyang repelled Daoist Ancestor Xuanqing with a punch, but more Harmonization Immortal Venerables’ forces attacked, crushing his rule-body, yet in the next breath, more Rule Power gathered, repairing the damaged physical body.
In less than one breath.
All injuries had fully healed.
Daoist Ancestor Xuanqing took a step to shatter the void, trillions of Great Dao condensed within him, seemingly forming a supreme Daoist Palace, pressing across a trillion miles of void, to suppress Gu Qingyang.
At the same time.
Other Harmonization Immortal Venerables’ attacks also arrived.
Any Harmonization or Immortal Venerable-level powerhouse possessed strength at the absolute peak of a universe, the limit that one universe could accommodate; their simple gestures could annihilate billions of galaxies.
Now the force stream of nine Harmonization Immortal Venerables struck, Gu Qingyang looked solemn, the Chaos Atlas evolved forty-two Chaos Demon Gods, various Great Dao powers pressed against the void, fiercely crashing together.
The next moment.
Chaos Demon God disintegrated.
Gu Qingyang’s half-body shattered, but in the blink of an eye, it was restored to its original state.
"Your strength is indeed formidable, but it’s futile to stand alone; no matter how much you can harness the Heavenly Dao’s power for restoration, how long can it last? Once the Heavenly Dao Power is exhausted, that’s when you’ll fall.
Relinquish that thing now, and there’s still room for negotiation!"
The Eternal Immortal Venerable’s eyes were cold.
In his view, Gu Qingyang’s strength was indeed terrifying; alone, he definitely wouldn’t be a match for him.
Having truly witnessed Gu Qingyang’s strength, the Eternal Immortal Venerable concluded that the item he sought was indeed with him.
Bear in mind.
During the ages-old catastrophe, the strongest in the Lower Realm was Taichu, but he was just a Saint. Despite wielding power beyond his own to destroy the Path to Immortality, that was all.
Ultimately.
Taichu couldn’t alter his fall.
Back then.
There was no Gu Qingyang.
Now, after ages, the Path to Immortality was renewed, and the Lower Realm produced such a powerful Harmonization. To say he’s unrelated to that item is something the Eternal Immortal Venerable would never believe.
Powerhouses like them at this level of Harmonization weren’t without exception. They refined their Dao for billions of years but perpetually stayed at this level, unable to advance further.
Because cultivating at the Harmonization Immortal Venerable tier wasn’t solely achievable through time, but required opportunity.
Without opportunity, trying to progress further even over endless ages had very slim success.
Now.
Gu Qingyang’s strength clearly advanced beyond the Harmonization Immortal Venerable state.
No matter that he arose from the ages-old catastrophe, within such a short time not only achieving Harmonization Immortal Venerable but stepping forward.
Only such a Supreme Treasure could achieve this.
"The Supreme Treasure is on my body; let’s see if you possess the ability to obtain it!"
Gu Qingyang laughed loudly, with Chaos Demon Gods’ power converged below, his aura grew overwhelmingly domineering, annihilating void with the lift of a hand, driving back the Eternal Immortal Venerable.
But the cost was other Harmonization Immortal Venerables’ attacks arriving, causing Gu Qingyang to shatter once again.
To give up the Hongmeng Jade Disc as suggested by the Eternal Immortal Venerable was impossible.
Moreover, the Hongmeng Jade Disc had completely merged with Gu Qingyang. Once ripped away, he would surely face death and soul ceasing.
Simply due to its value, surrendering it was impossible.
Why Upper Realm Harmonization Immortal Venerables craved the Hongmeng Jade Disc, even paying all costs, was because at their realm, further advancement seemed unattainable.
Or.
Not entirely impossible.
Only the chance was very slim.
Even with billions of years of hardship, it was mere stagnation.
Therefore.
The Hongmeng Jade Disc was a bridge to advance.
How could Gu Qingyang destroy his path to attainment?
Therefore.
If the Upper Realm wanted war, he would fight a bloody battle to the end.
Giving up the Hongmeng Jade Disc was a dead end, while fighting to the death might hold one chance for survival.
As the Heavenly Dao of Cyan Yang Divine Realm and founder of the Divine Kingdom Chat Group, Gu Qingyang sensed a current change in Cyan Yang Divine Realm.
Given time, when Cyan Yang Divine Realm produced a batch of fourteenth-tier powerhouses, allowing the world to advance to the eighth-tier, all problems would no longer be issues.
In this regard.
Gu Qingyang naturally had confidence.
After all, the seventh-tier world and Chaos Atlas’s power had already granted him combat strength equivalent to middle-grade seventeenth-tier; if Cyan Yang Divine Realm advanced to the eighth tier, his strength would further step ahead.
By then.
Dealing with nine Harmonization Immortal Venerables from the Upper Realm would be no problem.
The current biggest hurdle.
Is proving the Dao of fourteenth-tier powerhouses is challenging.
Even though many cultivators exist in the Lower Realm, truly meeting the demand for ten thousand fourteenth-tier powerhouses requires considerable time.
Now the Upper Realm continuously sends powerhouses to invade, which ironically grants Cyan Yang Divine Realm an opportunity for growth.
Powerhouses!
Often emerge from life-and-death battles.
If Cyan Yang Divine Realm could withstand Upper Realm’s pressure, powerhouses would emerge endlessly; if not, the strength will gradually diminish.
It’s a double-edged sword, no one can prevent.
Although with the resurrection function of the Divine Kingdom Chat Group, Cyan Yang Divine Realm’s cultivators are afforded one more retreat.
Hence.
What Gu Qingyang needs to do now, is to withstand pressure as much as possible, securing more time for Cyan Yang Divine Realm.
Ten thousand years isn’t enough, then a million years, if not a million, then ten million.
In such a life-threatening situation, Gu Qingyang must exhaust all foundations to support.
Surrender and await death.
There’s absolutely no hope for victory.
Only by fighting to the bitter end can one seize that crucial thread of hope.
Seeing Gu Qingyang’s steadfast resolve, Upper Realm powerhouses abandoned the idea of persuading him to dissolve his Dao Heart.
"Since this beast is unwilling, let’s join forces and kill him!"
Daoist Ancestor Xuanqing’s expression was indifferent, and as his voice fell, he erupted with even stronger attacks.
