Within Ancient Heaven Immortal City.
Among the countless cultivators of all races, some boiled with excitement, while others felt ashamed of their own inadequacy. It was as though their own immortal paths would become a joke when placed before the true prodigies of the Immortal Realm. This shock was especially immense for ascenders from All Heavens and Myriad Realms.
They had endured myriad tribulations and countless agonies to ascend here, only to find themselves far inferior even to a prodigy's protector. It seemed that the tremendous opportunities they had once obtained would be nothing more than ordinary treasures within those Shrouding Heaven powers.
Treasures that enhanced Spiritual Roots were now possessed by every Shrouding Heaven power of the Immortal Realm.
Items that could make spiritual medicines grow wildly were too numerous to count among Immortal Realm powers, far beyond what their vast medicinal fields could ever consume.
Longevity Immortal Medicines and other wondrous, peerless objects also existed in the Immortal Realm.
There were even more immortal treasures that granted enhancements, not to mention cultivation arts that did the same. The Immortal Realm possessed immortal treasures and terrifying techniques capable of increasing one's power by hundreds or thousands of times in an instant...
Longevity Beings.
And so on.
Countless "treasures" that ascenders in the lower realms had regarded as lifelong secrets were, in the present Immortal Realm, merely so-so. Thus, in an age of Immortal Realm prosperity at its peak, this was the greatest blow to the Dao hearts of countless ascenders.
The gap between ordinary cultivators and prodigies was an all-encompassing crushing disparity. It was like the helplessness of the Three Thousand Great Worlds witnessing numerous "Ouyang Boxiaos" and "Five-Elements Dao Ancestors" appearing in the same era. The civilization of cultivation had flourished to its absolute zenith.
Aooong~~~!
Screech~~~!
