Flame Heavenly Dao

"Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"

Throughout the entire day, the Heavenly Fire Sect's offensive proceeded at a completely unhurried pace.

Crimson Immortal also obediently stood her ground and defended.

The two sides were practically playing a turn-based game.

However, the Divine Ability they displayed and their use of force were indeed exquisite to the extreme.

I wish I could stretch every bit of my strength to make ten times the effort.

In terms of skill, the Xuanxian Realm is far superior to the Changsheng Realm.

Now, when he thinks back on Jin Haoran's control and use of Divine Ability, he realizes it was simply a miracle of sheer force.

It can only be said that different environments lead to differences in systems.

Just like on Blue Star, because it's a world without spirits, martial artists emphasize things like manifest strength, hidden strength, and transformative strength. But in the Realm of Immortality, who would bother to study combat techniques for the stages of Body Tempering, Organ Refining, and Blood Changing? Wouldn't it be better to concentrate on cultivating True Qi Gang Qi, and crush others with your realm?

The use of Divine Ability powers and techniques in the Xuanxian Realm is, to some extent, analogous to that on Blue Star.

Furthermore, it has been discovered Gu Jinlai that it is far more difficult for immortals in this world to resonate with the Great Dao. Even for a true immortal as powerful as him, the amplification effect of using his own Dao fruit to draw upon the power of the Great Dao is only equivalent to one or two tenths.

He relied on the Star Child to delve into the Mysterious Immortal Realm and only then did he manage to glean some clues.

The Heavenly Dao!

There are too many Heavenly Dao in this world!

Although there are only a few truly powerful Heavenly Dao, and the remaining hundreds are merely weak Heavenly Dao, the power of these Heavenly Dao forms a network that permeates all parts of the Xuanxian Realm, while also influencing the resonance between immortals and the power of the Great Dao.

"Not only is there insufficient inspiration to trigger the resonance of the Great Dao, but the Heavenly Dao itself will also interfere with the manifestation of the Great Dao..."

Gu Jinlai, I understand why those true immortals from the Immortal Kingdom felt that the cultivators of the Mysterious Immortal Realm were weak when they came to the Mysterious Immortal Realm, and even shamelessly believed that they could kill enemies beyond their cultivation level.

When spiritual energy is controlled, even the Great Dao is affected; how can it not weaken?

From Gu Jinlai, people have been watching the spiritual energy gathered above Baihe City, drawn together by the full power of the grotto-heaven.

He quickly realized what he was thinking.

"The weak ones are only cultivators below the Dao Lord level. For Dao Lords, they should have become stronger. The True Immortals in the sects and forces that have Dao Lords are also incredibly powerful because resources are more concentrated."

I have never met a Dao Lord-level figure in Gu Jinlai, but I can imagine this scene.

"Boom!"

Just as the battle raged on for a day, the Crimson Immortal seemed to realize that things couldn't continue like this. Suddenly, he used the power of his cave to step out of White River City, his body growing larger in the wind, transforming into a towering giant two hundred meters tall.

"He manifested his true immortal form, intending to fight to the death."

This scene greatly boosted the morale of everyone on the coalition side.

"Good! Quick! Get back quickly! Don't let him recover his spiritual power by leaning against the cave! Drag him down!"

"Hahaha, how dare you reveal your true immortal form in front of us twelve true immortals! Foolish! Don't you think we should run away?"

The True Immortals laughed loudly and scattered in all directions when the Crimson True Immortal arrived.

The Crimson Immortal pursued them relentlessly, but while the Immortal form greatly increased their combat power, their enormous size also limited their speed.

Gu Jinlai, the best example is that when a divine true form is manifested, the speed increase brought by the Thunder Dragon Transformation Technique is actually reduced.

A Crimson True Immortal can rush one or two thousand meters in a single burst. Although there is the factor that makes it difficult to resonate with the Great Dao, this speed is comparable to that of an ordinary True Immortal. Faced with the other True Immortals who have scattered, he has no chance to catch up.

So, in just a few breaths, in order to preserve his power, he had to revert to his True Immortal form and retreat back to the White River City Grotto.

Seeing the Crimson Immortal retreat, the twelve Immortals, led by Zi Ruyan, surrounded him again, unleashing the Twelve Rings of Heavenly Flame and continuing to unleash blazing flames with power comparable to great Divine Ability, consuming the cave's energy.

However, as for attack efficiency...

Gu Jinlai felt that if it were before he cultivated the "Three Realms", relying solely on the Eternal Furnace Cultivation Method for output, his efficiency would be faster than that of the two peak True Immortals, two top True Immortals, and eight high-level and ordinary True Immortals in the arena.

"Is this what it means for top-tier True Immortals to fight?"

Gu Jinlai, it's not only boring, but it also makes me feel sleepy.

"You have no idea how dangerous this is. Even though they are both Zi Ruyan, her understanding of Divine Ability powers is clearly a level above Long Congyun's. The power she consumes to activate the Twelve Rings of Heavenly Flame is always one point less than Long Congyun's. You can't see it in a short time, but if you extend the timeline, after a hundred rounds of attacks, the difference will be double..."

Yu Xu introduced the situation with the air of someone who had been through it all.

Gu Jinlai shook his head.

The true immortals of the Xuanxian Realm have all gone astray. They are no longer competing on who is the most powerful, but on who can persevere to the end.

But it seems there's nothing we can do about it.

After all, if you unleash your power, others will run away. If you were to attack someone else's sect...

Learn about Dongtian.

For cultivators of the same level, a grotto-heaven is like a tortoise shell.

After reaching the Celestial Realm, the tortoise shell can be upgraded again.

If others don't engage you in direct combat, and you can't break through their sect's defenses, what other options are there besides mutual sparring during a fight?

Gu Jinlai, I've come to understand why only True Immortals with their own grotto-heavens are considered part of a powerful force; without a grotto-heaven, even the strongest True Immortal is regarded as second-rate...

"The world is full of wonders."

Gu Jinlai, people have watched this great battle with utter boredom.

The following day, the cave in Baihe City appeared even more dilapidated, and out of desperation, the Crimson True Immortal launched another sneak attack to kill one or two True Immortals.

However, these True Immortals were very vigilant, and as soon as the Crimson True Immortal appeared, they scattered immediately.

As long as they run fast, they won't lose.

Thus, the battle dragged on to the fourth day. On this day, it seemed that the cave heaven of Baihe City was about to be breached. Fortunately, the immortals of the Hongyun Sect risked their lives to keep the cave heaven from collapsing and held on for another day.

Then, the battle continued for the fifth day, the sixth day...

Seeing the Baihe Cave Heaven, which seemed to be about to be breached at any moment but remained standing, even the dozen or so True Immortals, who were slow to react, realized that something was wrong.

"What happened? A dilapidated cave couldn't possibly have lasted this long!"

"That's right. Even if it were a complete cave, we should have been able to break it after six days of attacking it, averaging hundreds of powerful Divine Ability per day."

"Although there has been some time to recover, I'm already struggling to keep up after six days of intense fighting. Crimson, can he really hold on? There's something wrong, definitely something wrong!"

One by one, the true immortals gathered together with solemn expressions.

Zi Ruyan nodded as well.

It is indeed somewhat unusual that an unfinished grotto-heaven in Baihe City could sustain itself for so long.

At this moment, from the direction of Baihe City, the figure of the Crimson Immortal reappeared, his divine sense spreading. "Everyone, after six days of battle, I think the strength of our Red Cloud Sect has been recognized by you all. Why do you still have to press us so hard? Our Red Cloud Sect has established itself in Baihe City, so it is naturally equivalent to being a member of the Flame River Sect. Wouldn't it be better if we lived in harmony in the future?"

Long Congyun had taken a lot of pills over the past six days to restore his true energy, and he was naturally unwilling to retreat like this.

He glanced at Zi Ruyan and said, "If we allow the Crimson True Immortal to establish a sect, then all the powerful True Immortals will surely follow suit, and the entire Flame River Dao will fall into chaos. Moreover, with each additional force, the spiritual energy we can share in the Flame River Dao will be weakened. The Heavenly Fire Sect will inevitably bear the brunt. I think... it is better for us to simultaneously manifest our True Immortal bodies and use our strongest methods to crush the Red Cloud Sect's cave heaven with overwhelming force."

"Then let's go all out."

Zi Ruyan nodded.

"Go all out..."

Some of the true immortals hesitated.

The Xuanxian Realm is different from the Changsheng Realm. It is lacking in Spiritual Qi. If a true immortal exhausts his power and wants to recover, it often takes three to five months. If the loss is severe and affects his foundation, he may not be able to catch his breath for three to five years.

Every True Immortal is a pillar of strength in a small faction, so such a long period of weakness is not necessarily a good thing.

Upon seeing this, Zi Ruyan immediately said, "If anyone gains less in this great battle, the one who gains more must be provided with a bottle of Immortal Essence Pill."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Long Congyun and Dongming. Clearly, they thought that these two forces would ultimately come out on top.

After a moment's thought, the two nodded. "Okay."

"Then let's make a move."

As soon as Zi Ruyan finished speaking, she soared into the air and became the first to manifest her true immortal form.

Although her immortal body was not as powerful as that of the Crimson Immortal, it was still over two hundred meters tall. The blazing flames surrounding her made her look like a god born from flames.

As she unleashed her full power, the other True Immortals also manifested their True Immortal forms, with bodies hundreds or even two hundred meters tall appearing. Vast and mighty energy fluctuations emanated from their bodies, instantly evolving into various Divine Ability as they charged towards Baihe City.

The immense power that surged forth in that instant finally invigorated people Gu Jinlai.

Only now do they truly live up to their rightful status as immortals.

"I said, wouldn't it be better to let me finish building the Red Cloud Cave and settle down in the Flame River Road? Why force me to this point?"

Seeing this scene, the Crimson Immortal's expression was tinged with melancholy.

But this desolation lasted only a moment. As his figure swelled in the wind and transformed into his true form, he became cruel and ferocious. "Why force me to kill you all!"

The next moment, a terrifying power was suddenly activated in the seemingly crumbling cave behind him. The heavens and Heavenly Dao resonated with it, as if sensing some unknown threat.

Almost simultaneously, a stream of black light was projected onto the Crimson Immortal's body, causing a huge fire halo with a diameter of over a thousand meters to appear behind the Crimson Immortal. The flames inside the halo burned fiercely, even melting all the surrounding matter and energy into the energy that powered it.

Even the slightest dissipation of power caused the twelve True Immortals to clearly feel the temperature rising rapidly.

Only...

Although the heat wave was hitting him head-on, his heart sank as he looked at the twelve True Immortals behind the Crimson True Immortal surrounded by flames.

This power...

"The Heavenly Dao of Flames!"
