CHAPTER 988: CHAPTER 765: UNBRIDLED

"Too fast."

On Changqing Island, Gu Jinlai sincerely sighed.

Five years!

He has been on Changqing Island for five years, and his compatibility with the Destruction Dao has reached an astonishing fifty percent.

Even the compatibility with the Space Dao has increased to forty percent.

These two Daos have directly overtaken, surpassing his originally main practiced Devouring Dao’s thirty percent, becoming his strongest foundational Daos.

"Once I get the compatibility of the Devouring Dao to forty percent, the Destruction Mixed Hole Sword Qi can achieve Small Achievement. The power of this composite Immortal Technique, which is not inferior to a Supreme Immortal Skill, even at Small Achievement, can probably rival a Mahayana Top Immortal Skill."

Relying on this Immortal Skill, along with two Supreme Immortal Artifacts, even if Gu Jinlai hasn’t enhanced his Divine Sense Ability to the Tenth Rank, he would still barely qualify to cameo as a Supreme Golden Immortal.

However...

He glanced at another Jade Scroll in his hand.

It recorded the true Supreme Immortal Technique — Particle Sword Intent.

"The Particle Sword Intent contains the mysteries of space, destruction, and devouring, and the stronger the Divine Sense Ability, the more it can exert the power of this Dao. If I can cultivate this Supreme Immortal Technique to Great Achievement, not to mention domineering in the killing path within the Golden Immortal Realm, even the Immortal Body of an Immortal Golden Immortal would be directly shattered by my Sword Qi."

Gu Jinlai was somewhat eager.

Unfortunately...

Although he possesses three types of Daos, the Particle Sword Intent is not like the Destruction Mixed Hole Sword Qi, which is a Lifebound Immortal Skill, and requires comprehension and cultivation.

And within five years, with the need to allocate focus on improving the compatibility of the Destruction Dao and Space Dao, this time is obviously not enough for him to cultivate this Immortal Technique even to the entry-level.

Even once entry-level is achieved, who knows how long it will take to cultivate to the Great Achievement Realm.

Moreover, the Particle Sword Intent, when at Great Achievement, is difficult for even Immortal Golden Immortals to resist in terms of killing, but Immortal Golden Immortals aren’t fools to just tough it out with Particle Sword Intent.

No one can be invincible relying solely on one Immortal Technique.

"I should first spend time improving the Chaotic Hole Holy Scripture, thus enhancing the compatibility with the Devouring Dao. As for the Destruction Dao... I’ll practice it slowly. If all goes well, it should take thirty to fifty years to reach the level of Chi Tianyuan. By then, supplemented with the Devouring Dao, the power of the Destruction Mixed Hole Sword Qi will definitely not be inferior to Chi Tianyuan’s Void Annihilation Sword."

Gu Jinlai pondered, his gaze shifted to the bounty list.

At this moment, there were only nine Demigod bounty targets left on the list.

Each bounty has a time limit, often not exceeding a year. If he really wants to carry out a task, he has to do it quickly.

Moreover, in these five years, he has also understood the bounty system of the Honorable Daoist Mansion. It’s time to go out and earn some Enlightenment Points and Qingguang.

"Hmm!?"

Just as Gu Jinlai was looking for which Demigod to hunt, he seemed to sense something.

Someone was calling him?

That person...

"Liu Feiyun!?"

Gu Jinlai immediately realized something: "Has there been any movement in the Longevity Realm?"

But then again, it’s been eight years since he left the Longevity Realm, and from the increasingly eerie tranquility of the True Spirit Realm over the past few years, it’s not hard to guess that winter is coming.

Now, Liu Feiyun hastily contacting him...

"Finally awakened, huh."

Gu Jinlai muttered to himself.

As he prepared to set off back to the Longevity Realm, he used the Void Projection Technique to search for Liu Feiyun’s spiritual radiance and projected over.

...

Longevity Realm.

The hundred Immortals led by Huan Ming and Wu Ge, without exception, were all experts who had achieved the Profound Immortal level.

Only Profound Immortals, who have incorporated the Heavenly Dao into their bodies, can roam freely and comfortably outside.

For a Heavenly Immortal, even a Daoist Master Level Heavenly Immortal, they can only travel via incarnations.

Even if they gave their all to create an incarnation, it would only possess the battle power of a Supreme True Immortal, which other worlds have plenty of at this level.

In such a situation, when two renowned Golden Immortals and over a hundred Profound Immortals descend upon the Longevity Realm, where there is only Zhao Xi in the realm of Profound Immortals, the pressure they bring to the Immortal Country and Lingxiao Palace is despairing.

Apart from immediately requesting help from Gu Jinlai, they had no other choice.

...

"Myriad Realms Alliance."

Gu Jinlai, initially thinking it was the Divine Calamity awakening, projected over using the Void Projection Technique, only to hear such news.

"Two renowned Golden Immortals, over a hundred Profound Immortals..."

He took a deep breath, and his gaze instantly fell on Zhang Lihuo: "How many Mechas do we have? Especially how many Star Destroyer Mechas?"

"Since the Star Destroyer Mechas have been in continuous improvement, so far we’ve only produced three prototype models, whose combat power, even at the strongest output, only matches that of a Nine Heavens Profound Immortal, and their overall performance might only barely be equivalent to an ordinary Profound Immortal."

Zhang Lihuo said bitterly: "As for those Mechas, the number has exceeded a thousand, and their combat power is not inferior to True Immortals, with output that rivals Heavenly Immortals. But if the opponent were two Profound Immortals leading a hundred Heavenly Immortals, we would still have room for confrontation, but with two Golden Immortals carrying a hundred Profound Immortals..."

The difference is too much.

Gu Jinlai listened and frowned.

Finally, he said: "My True Body will rush over at full speed. In the meantime, I will activate my reserved incarnation, and meet these two Golden Immortals from the Myriad Realms Alliance."

"During this period, we’ve been implementing the new Fire Seed plan. If necessary, we can fully retreat to preserve the fire seed of the Longevity Realm, and definitely not become a burden and hold you back, Palace Master."

Xin Tianqi said solemnly.

"I will order the immediate closure of the Realm Gate to Blue Star."

Zhou Yi followed up and added.

"Everyone in the Immortal Country is willing to spare no effort to buy time for everyone’s withdrawal."

Zhao Xi said.

After speaking, he seemed to have thought of the gap between them, like an insurmountable chasm, and his face showed bitterness: "Even though we can’t stop them for even a moment."

Gu Jinlai glanced at this Immortal Country Master Zhao Xi.

Not long ago, when they contacted through Liu Feiyun, Zhao Xi, Luo Jiuxiao, Wang Xuanjing, and others had expressed a desire to follow him to the New Fire Star Sea.

They were able to stand out and achieve Profound Immortal status in worlds like Longevity World and Profound Immortal Realm. To say the least, each of them is considered a Golden Immortal seed.

As long as they’re given a better environment, achieving Golden Immortal status is just a matter of time.

Considering that he occupies Changqing Island in the Honorable Daoist Mansion, it can be regarded as a foothold. Once his true body arrives, he will take them directly to the New Fire Star Sea.

...

"This world, the Spirit Mechanism is unexpectedly rich?"

At this time, Huan Ming and Wu Ge, who reached the Longevity World, did not rush to launch an attack but instead showed surprise as they probed the environment of the Longevity World.

"For a world capable of birthing Great Dao Golden Immortals, the Spirit Mechanism should indeed not be too sparse, but this level of Spirit Mechanism rivals that of the Immortal Xia Realm at its peak. Why is such a world not marked on the Xuanhuang Realm’s star map?"

"Could it be that Gu Jinlai is Zhou Huang’s illegitimate child, and this world is specially reserved by Zhou Huang for his cultivation?"

The two Golden Immortals speculated with a hint of malice.

They even fantasized, if this guess proved true...

Then Gu Jinlai must be incredibly valuable. If they could capture him and present him to the Alliance Hierarch, it would be a significant achievement.

"Gu Jinlai must already know we’ve arrived. Let’s see if he makes an appearance."

"From the brief information we’ve obtained earlier, it seems he values his homeland greatly, so he won’t hide."

During the exchange between the two, they saw a stream of light swiftly project from the horizon’s end.

Yet upon seeing this stream of light, the two Golden Immortals’ expressions turned cold.

When the stream of light manifested, Huan Ming coldly snorted: "Gu Changqing? Or Gu Jinlai? We are somewhat acquainted, aren’t we? I even gifted you a Space Immortal Artifact, and now you greet us with a mere incarnation instead of your true body? You really don’t know the etiquette of hospitality."

"It’s not that I’m unwilling to greet you with my true body, but Longevity World is not a major world. I assume you have sensed that my true body is not within the Longevity World."

The entity flitting like a stream of light was indeed the incarnation of Gu Jinlai, left in advance in the Longevity World.

"Really? What about our previous invitation for you to join the All World Alliance, have you considered it?"

Huan Ming inquired.

"My true body is returning, and at the latest, will arrive in less than a month. By then, I will go with you to the All World Alliance."

Gu Jinlai appeared very cooperative, concurrently saying: "Surely you’ll grant me a month’s time, won’t you?"

"A month?"

Huan Ming looked at Gu Jinlai’s stance, somewhat uncertain of his intentions.

"It’s not just us coming to invite you, Gu Jinlai; our Vice Alliance Hierarch Hao Tianqing is here too. You can’t possibly let our Alliance Hierarch wait for you a month, can you?"

This moment, Wu Ge spoke, glancing in a particular direction: "Moreover, I detected spatial fluctuations from two Realm Gates in this world... Your true body may not be in Longevity World, but probably in one of those two other worlds... Hmm!? You’re closing the Realm Gate!? Closing the Realm Gate right before me!? Without my permission, who gave you the audacity!?"

Before finishing his words, with an unreal hand strike, visible spatial ripples magnificently spread, penetrating space, descending above the Realm Gate connecting Blue Star within the Chen Domain.

"Space Avenue!?"

Gu Jinlai’s heart trembled.

This Golden Immortal, named Wu Ge, achieved his status through the Space Avenue!?

Even outside the Heart of the Cosmic, there are people who cultivate such a top-ranked Great Dao!?

"Stop!"

He urgently bellowed.

But...

It was too late.

As a renowned Golden Immortal trained in the Space Avenue, Wu Ge, even from hundreds of thousands of miles away, demolished the dozen Heavenly Monarchs and several Void Immortals who were guarding the Chen Domain and planning to close the Realm Gate.

That feeling...

Lightly crushing a swarm of ants.

This scene made murder intent flicker in Gu Jinlai’s heart.

But Wu Ge and Huan Ming paid no mind to his reaction at all.

"So eager to close the Realm Gate, it appears your true body is in that other world! That makes things easier; there’s no need to wait a month. I’ll take your people to see our Alliance Hierarch right now."

Wu Ge chuckled lightly, spatial ripples undulating from his figure: "This time, you better not play tricks hiding or escaping to another world. If I can’t see your people, I might get upset... If I get upset and destroy your world, that’s bad news."

"Destroy my world!?"

Gu Jinlai gazed at this Space Avenue Golden Immortal, filled with reckless audacity and solemnly said: "Would you dare?"

"Would I not dare?"

Upon hearing that, Wu Ge seemed to hear a joke: "You’re threatening me? Even if you were truly Zhou Huang’s illegitimate child, so what? I’m not scared of Zhou Huang; why would I fear you?"

"You don’t need to fear me, but you should fear this world."

Gu Jinlai slowly spoke: "Use your Space Avenue sincerely, carefully, and thoroughly probe what hides within this world, and then speak of destroying it in vain."
