However, these Supreme Strong knew that for a True Immortal Leader to suppress a Supreme Strong was almost a matter of flipping a hand, without the need to expend much energy.
Even for beings like Bai Qicang and Wang Boan, who had already touched the threshold of the Immortal Dao domain and possessed some characteristics of True Immortals, they were nothing more than slightly larger ants to them.
The existence of True Immortals merged with Heaven and Earth, or rather, they existed on an equal fundamental level with Heaven and Earth, their power capable of supporting their transcendence beyond Heaven and Earth.
True Immortals and Supreme Strong were completely different types of entities, and no matter how many Supreme Strong combined their forces, they couldn't pose a life-threatening danger to a True Immortal.
Now, as these few True Immortals engaged without any reservations, their collision inadvertently invoked the manifestation of the Original Source of Heaven and Earth, displaying their Great Dao belonging to True Immortals.
This was an endless crisis, even for Supreme Strong who, if involved, would face mortal danger.
Yet, it was also an infinite opportunity, as the usually hidden Original Source of Heaven and Earth was now revealed, helping the Supreme Strong to further comprehend the Great Tao of Heaven and Earth and also to spy on the Dao and skills of True Immortals.
If they could seize such an opportunity and gain some insight, it would greatly benefit their future cultivation.
This was a temptation that all Supreme Strong could not refuse.
On the borders of the Demon Race, where the recent Great War between the two races had ended, countless corpses of the Demon Race and the human race littered the ground.
The Demon Race had been repelled, and with the help of Black Snake King, who was controlled by the Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Venerable, while Wang Boan killed the Strongest of the Wolf Spider Clan, the attention of many Demon Race Supreme Strong was diverted, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Venerable launched his plan.
He activated all the puppet Demon Kings and Great Demons under his control to fearlessly attack from within the borders, and in coordination with forces from outside, they directly breached the Demon Race borders.
Though these Strong of the Demon Race were furious, they found it difficult to reverse the situation and had to retreat, leaving behind many casualties. Led by the Crimson Flame Tiger King, the remnants of the Demon Race withdrew, and the borders of the Demon Race were completely lost.
Blood turned into the main theme here, and the chilling intent to kill had not yet dissipated. Ordinary soldiers, under the guidance of many Strong, gathered the bodies of their dead comrades while finishing off those Demon Race members who had not completely perished.
This was the cruelty of racial wars – whether it be the human race or the Demon Race, except for a few forces that might require captives, most would not hesitate to execute those who fell into their hands decisively.
The Great War between the human race and the Demon Race ended in victory for the human race, undoubtedly a good opening for the War of Sealing Gods, causing the spirit of countless human Cultivators to soar.
Indeed, many human warriors and Cultivators had fallen, but protected by the Gods Sealing List, their True Spirits did not directly enter the Nine Netherworld after death but were collected by the Gods Sealing List, becoming the first batch of Ascenders to be registered, waiting for the future completion of the Enthronement.
Perhaps because there was still a chance to start anew, it wasn't complete death, and coupled with the baptism of victory, the morale of the entire human race wasn't dampened but was exceptionally high, with joy apparent on everyone's face.
However, this was true for the lower-level Cultivators; those who had stepped into the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm and especially the Spiritual Realm Level Nine Strongest, while they felt the joy of victory, were more heavily weighed down by the encounter between the True Immortals, their faces full of solemnity.
“This is the terror of True Immortals!”
The Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Venerable furrowed his brows deeply, his delight at controlling a new puppet Strong of the Demon Race washed away.
Indeed, with his current power able to control three Supreme Strong Demon Kings, along with his own strength, the alliance of four Supreme Strong was indeed among the foremost in the ranks of the Supreme Strong of the human race and the Demon Race within this Heaven and Earth, truly something to be proud of.
“`
Yet at this moment, when he truly witnessed the divine authority wrought by the true immortal's encounter, any prior pride he held had dissipated beyond the highest clouds, leaving only astonishment in his heart.
Such true immortals, let alone with him controlling the puppets of three supreme strong Demon Kings, even if he had several more, would likely be of no significance in an actual confrontation with a true immortal. At best, he might struggle for a few more rounds, but the outcome would remain unchanged.
Feeling trivial and desperate, these thoughts whirled through the mind of Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Venerable, nearly causing his Dao heart to waver.
“No! Becoming a true immortal is not an unattainable dream. If I ascend to the True Immortal Realm, or perhaps obtain the Imperatorial God Position of Longevity, it's not impossible for me to reach!”
The Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Venerable was truly an overlord who had risen from the Demonic Way. The countless hardships he endured had never defeated him, never made him concede. Therefore, despite being shaken by the divine might of a true immortal today, he was far from truly despairing.
In just a moment, he shook off these troubling thoughts and firmed his Dao heart, seizing the opportunity to comprehend the Original Source of Heaven and Earth to grow stronger.
As a powerhouse who had walked his path alone, his understanding and methods were extraordinary, particularly in the craft of puppets where he had reached the pinnacle. Now, grasping the chance to comprehend the Original Source of Heaven and Earth, his entire being was immersed in it, wrapped in an indescribable glow.
“The power of a true immortal lies not only in comprehending their own Great Tao, but also in their mastery of the Laws of Heaven and Earth. These Laws are nearly their foundation, the means of their attack and offense.”
Bai Qicang observed the Great War between the true immortals, his eyes radiant with divine light. As a supreme strong being who had already touched upon the Immortal Path, he was continually peering into the true face of Immortal Dao from every angle, but some things were so profound that not even the Ancestor Celestial Master could fully elucidate them to him.
The Immortal Path is arduous. Once you comprehend it, you comprehend it; if you don't, no explanation from another will suffice. Not only will it fail to become part of you, it might even trap you in shackles.
Now witnessing the mighty display of the true immortals' encounter, the divine abilities and skills they drew from the Original Source of Heaven and Earth, Bai Qicang reached his own understanding and interpretation. To him, true immortals are those who master the Laws.
Whether this is right or wrong, no one knows, but this is the Immortal Dao that belongs to Bai Qicang himself. His future path, one that no one can interfere with or stop.
The Immortal Path is difficult, yet it is not singular. While there are said to be five categories for Becoming Immortal–Heaven, Earth, Human, God, Ghost–the path is inclusive of all things, containing countless Daos. It is not fixed or singular; even if true immortals tread the same path, their Immortal Dao would still differ.
“True Immortal!”
Dressed in a Confucian robe, Wang Boan stood atop the ramparts of the Demon Race's border, hands clasped behind his back, his heart filled with emotion as he perceptive the fluctuations of the true immortals' encounter between Heaven and Earth.
To other Spiritual Realm Level Nine Strongest, standing at this level, they were still groping in the dark for their future path, the Road of Immortal Dao.
But Wang Boan was different from them; his path had been set ever since he first reached Enlightenment at the dragon field, and from that moment, he stepped into the Grandmaster Realm of Martial Arts.
The subsequent journey of cultivation for others required them to continuously seek out their Dao, confirm their Dao, and diligently practice their Dao.
Therefore, whether it was refining the Taoist Foundation in the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm, or the Heavenly Chasm at the Strongest Realm of Level Nine, while daunting for others, they were trivial for Wang Boan.
His Dao heart, or as the Confucian Gate would say, his viridian Blood Pill heart, had long been flawless, needing no completion or perfecting, merely requiring systematic accumulation and advancement.
It could be said that ever since his true enlightenment, Wang Boan's journey of cultivation had never been obstructed, and even now, the threshold of the Immortal Realm was easily within reach.
Today, after witnessing the encounter of the true immortals, each powerhouse perceived and comprehended something different. Yet for a powerhouse with a resolute Dao heart like Wang Boan, despite being attracted and shaken by the power displayed by the true immortals, he harbored not the slightest doubt about his own Dao, remaining unwaveringly steadfast.
