In terms of strength, Luo Hao could maintain the peak state of the Grand Yan Immortal by burning his source. Root issues were not a concern.

Inside the canyon.

Jian Wushuang sat cross-legged within a formation. Luckily, he had killed several Grand Yan Immortals and obtained numerous pills from them. At this moment, he swallowed them all in an attempt to accelerate the recovery of his Yan power, which had been depleted in the recent battle.

That last strike had nearly completely shattered his divine body. If it were an ordinary Grand Yan Immortal of the Ultimate Dao, that strike would have been fatal. Fortunately, he mastered the Extreme Dao; his divine body was a hundred times stronger than the Ultimate Dao. His Yan power was more abundant than any other Grand Yan Immortal, but even so, that blow had instantly torn through his body, causing a significant loss of Yan power.

Currently, the only way to repair his body was to use pills to replenish his Yan power. The restorative power of the Extreme Dao’s source was incredibly potent. Although his divine body was injured by that strike, it hadn’t caused any harm to the source’s Great Dao.

As long as the source remained intact, he could rapidly recover his divine body.

This was the advantage of the Extreme Dao over the Ultimate Dao. The source was exceptionally powerful; ordinary attacks could hardly harm it. Possessing the source also allowed for a rapid recovery of the divine body.

This single point made countless people envious. God-Emperor MO Longs divine body was on the brink of collapse and took countless treasures a year to recover. In contrast, injuries in the Ultimate Dao required just a day, while those in the extreme path, especially for Jian Wushuang, only required the time it took to drink a cup of tea.

“l need the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Hu Qing, can you hold on?” Jian Wushuangs voice was somewhat weak as he looked at the young novice monk, Hu Qing, in front of him.

At some point, Hu Oing had become remarkably upright. He held a brown-red staff in his robe, his thick eyebrows giving his exceptionally determined black eyes an imposing air. His aura was several times stronger than before.

Hu Qing nodded.

“Brother Wushuang, rest assured. 1 will do my best to delay them,” Hu Qing said with a faint smile.

In the art of Zen, one excels in battling within formations; as long as it concerns the ultimate way, there are no weak primal sources.

Even though he had just broken through the Nine Revolutions, his combat power was comparable to that of a peak Perfected Nine Revolutions. Relying on formations, he was no weaker than God-Emperor MO Long.

With a swift movement, Hu Qing entered the center of the formation, his long staff tilted, waiting calmly for the enemy to arrive.

In just a breath’s time, Luo Hao from the outside world descended into the formation. However, he couldn’t sense the presence of the formation at all. All he saw was the young monk Hu Qing standing alone on the slope of the gorge.

“Are you Jian Wushuangs protector?” Luo Hao sneered!

The person before him seemed to be at the Nine Revolutions level. He couldn’t believe he would encounter two beings who controlled the Ultimate Dao in one day.

Without the Ultimate Dao, a Nine Revolutions, no matter how strong, could only match an ordinary Perfected Nine Revolutions at best.

Hu Qing suppressed his sharp aura. He knew there was another person in the outside world; he had to lure that person here as well.

He needed to reveal a flaw first, so that God-Emperor MO Long could see it.

Once both of them entered the formation, he would activate the Wuliang Grand Formation, trapping the opponent and slowly depleting their strength.

“If there’s no one else, then prepare to die!”

Luo Hao sensed no danger whatsoever. He immediately took action, and his flying blade shot towards Hu Qing.

“Moonlight Shadow! ”

He went all out from the start. He wanted to see the true strength of this leader of the monks from the Heaven-Reaching Buddhist Realm. If, as he suspected, the monk’s strength was mediocre, he would kill him effortlessly and then find his way out.

If you could withstand his attack, he would switch sides and cooperate with the opponent. Jian Wushuang had mastered the Ultimate Dao, recovering rapidly. As long as they could hold God-Emperor MO Long back, waiting for Jian Wushuang to fully regain his strength, the three of them could join forces and have a chance at survival.

While Luo Hao was making plans, he was unaware that the God-Emperor MO Long outside had already seen through everything.

Smack!

Hu Qing stomped the ground fiercely, soaring into the sky, his Moonlight Shadow cleaving a towering mountain into two halves.

This was just one Moonlight Shadow attack; countless more followed, leaving

Hu Qing with no place to hide.

Countless Moonlight Shadows, shattered with a single strike!

A towering reddish-brown staff smashed down, colliding with the Moonlight Shadows.

Countless moon blades clashed against the brown staff, but they couldn’t inflict any damage, falling to the ground like shattered ice.

The staff swept through the entire canyon, dispersing numerous Moonlight

Shadows. Luo Hao leaped out of the valley just in time to evade that terrifying strike.

“Not bad, some real power!” Luo Hao turned around and smiled, the crescent moon blade beneath his feet slashing out.

A buzzing sound tore through the air, assaulting the ears. Hu Qing gritted his teeth, his staff returning to its original size, barely managing to block the crescent moon blade with his impeccable staff techniques.

The transcendent innate treasure, the crescent moon blade, clashed violently with the staff several times.

Luo Hao, manipulating the blade from afar, frowned. He murmured, “Is Perfected Nine Revolutions Grand Yan Immortal also equipped with an innate treasure?”

Initially, he had thought that, among the numerous great worlds, being a Prince from a higher world and obtaining a transcendent innate treasure when he entered the Qishen Temple was already a mark of significant attention.

Now, encountering the eccentric God-Emperor MO Long, the amount of treasures he possessed was staggering. He had far more treasures than an average second-tier Emperor, with several top-grade transcendent innate treasures alone.

Common innate treasures were even more abundant!

This monk from the Heaven-Reaching Buddisht Realm before him also possessed innate treasures. The power he displayed was much stronger than his crescent moon blade, just by revealing a fraction of its might.

Without this reddish-brown staff, he wouldn’t have been able to hold him off for so long.

One innate treasure could make a Nine Revolutions comparable to a top-tier Perfected Nine Revolutions. That was the charm of transcendent innate treasures.

Just like Demon Lord Fengyu, who wielded an eternal treasure, she possessed the strength of a peak Emperor, perpetually suppressing all enemies.

Chishui had to lead a large group of strong individuals just to negotiate with

Demon Lord Fengyu. If those forces hadn’t formed a coalition, Demon Lord Fengyu, with the Eternal Tower, could have subdued any top-tier force in any region.

Even within other peak forces, not everyone necessarily had an eternal treasure. After all, the power of eternal treasures could affect the battle prowess of a tier 5 Emperor, making these treasures rare even among tier 5 Emperors. Emperors would only bestow them upon disciples if it didn’t impact their own battle strength.

Just like the Ruler of the Daluo Realm, who possessed an outstanding set of transcendent innate treasures, the remaining innate treasures became insignificant. During the Qishen Temple’s opening, the treasury was unlocked, and half of the treasures were bestowed upon their subordinates.

Of course, most of these were given to the Emperors under his command, as they were the main core of this conflict.

The other Emperors would only be given innate treasures that the ten Princes and some chief disciples didn’t find appealing.

Apart from the ten Princes in the Daluoo Realm, there were also some chief disciples of Emperors who would receive innate treasures.

These ten Princes were only cultivated under the reign of the Daluo Realm’s Ruler. Although they had prestigious status on the surface, in terms of treasures, they were not as well-off as the direct disciples of those Emperors.

Especially figures like God-Emperor MO Long; he simply looked down upon these so-called Princes..
