"Damn it..."
As Boss Qi listened to Miss Five and Han Meng recount that great battle they had experienced back then, before the core of the legendary Immortal Realm, he reconstructed scene after scene in his mind. The more he did, the colder his sweat ran.
It had been too hopeless.
All living beings had charged madly toward the world core, seeking a way out, yet they could not even break Li Yaotie's defenses and were instead sent flying by him. According to Miss Five, even a ninety-nine-revolution Heaven and Earth would lose one revolution's foundation to a single punch if it approached Li Yaotie. In other words...
A powerhouse standing atop the world, a Great Emperor with profound foundations, could only withstand ninety-nine of Li Yaotie's punches.
Encountering Li Yaozu had been even more despairing. At the beginning, one might still be able to suppress him, beating him until he ran everywhere, but then...
"Then, without even realizing it, his [Scales] and [Infinity] immortal Dao will level your realm with his. At that point, his [Zero Point] will become the strongest Dao in the world. He can find the weakness of any existence."
"They will not die or be injured. Even if they are injured, Li Yaoqing's [Life] law will swiftly restore them. They are not opponents we can handle."
Miss Five's voice trembled. "We powerhouses who had hidden ourselves for tens of thousands of years were killed one by one by Li Changyao, Li Chuxiu, Li Yunlin, and Li Jianning. Then Li Tianming assimilated our corpses, turning them into members of [Filth]. They grew stronger and stronger, while our numbers dwindled."
"The Ancient Sages... also lost every one of their methods. They were still a step beneath the Heavenly Dao."
"The Heavenly Dao?" Boss Qi asked in confusion.
