Dong Yi's Promise

"Did he really leave?" Wu Yuan's dharma body and source body watched True Saint Luanhai depart, until he could no longer sense the other's presence.

"That guy is truly terrifying."

"If we really fought to the death, even with my dharma body and source body working together, I might not beat him." Wu Yuan thought to himself.

If his dharma body went all out and used a heart weapon to kill its enemy, it would be a tactic that dealt a thousand wounds to the enemy at the cost of eight hundred to himself.

Did Wu Yuan have any confidence in killing True Saint Luanhai outright? Not at all.

And even if he could severely wound True Saint Luanhai, would his source body be able to finish him off? That was far from certain, too.

There was no other reason!

True Saint Luanhai was simply too powerful. He had reached the fourth step of his own path and even created a Supreme Saint secret art, a massive boost to his strength.

"Take Saint Yun. Though he's also reached the pinnacle of his own path, he hasn't yet created a corresponding Supreme Saint secret art. He probably still wouldn't be a match for True Saint Tianchan," Wu Yuan mused. "True Saint Luanhai's path is even stronger, and he's also created a Supreme Saint secret art. He'll only be stronger still."

Ordinary paths, upper paths, and pinnacle paths.

At the same cultivation level, these three kinds of paths could produce some differences in strength, but the gap wasn't that great. After all, they were only parts of the primordial origin, each being perfected step by step. More than anything, they represented potential.

Take True Saint Tianchan. He had reached the fourth step long ago and even created a Supreme Saint secret art.
