Still Invincible!

Within Luo Qiushan's Great Dao of Darkness Domain.

The endless darkness still surged all around, but now it was riddled with holes, with countless cracks spreading like a spider web across the void—the marks left by the previous two clashes.

Luo Qiushan stood in the center of the darkness, the twenty Great Dao halos behind her dim and lifeless, her chest heaving violently, her breathing still catching in the air.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Lu Qing'an's aura was rapidly increasing.

Chaotic light exploded around him, and more than three thousand kinds of rule phenomena condensed into a huge vortex of reincarnation behind him. The Darkness Domain emitted a mournful cry on the verge of collapse, and large fragments of void fell like a torrential rain!

Luo Qiushan's pupils suddenly contracted to their maximum size as she watched this scene.

She has lived for countless years, experienced countless life-and-death battles, and witnessed too many powerful figures unleashing world-destroying methods.

But at this moment, the sense of oppression she felt from Lu Qing'an was something she had never experienced from any opponent before.

It was a fear that struck the very depths of her soul; it was her life force frantically issuing a final warning to her!

She couldn't withstand that attack!

This thought surfaced in her mind more clearly than ever before.

"Fellow Daoist! Stop! Stop! Stop! We can't go any further!!!"

She waved her hands frantically, her voice sharp and urgent, filled with undisguised panic and pleading.

At this moment, she was not the sect leader of the Nether Emperor Holy Sect, nor a top expert who had cultivated twenty Great Dao; she was simply a cultivator instinctively seeking survival in the face of an overwhelming force.

Lu Qing'an was about to pour all his power, five hundred thousand times his cultivation level, into his fingertips when he heard Luo Qiushan's shout, and he stopped in his tracks.

He frowned slightly, looking at the woman in the distance who was frantically waving her hands and looking panicked. A hint of surprise and confusion flashed in his eyes. "What's wrong?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he withdrew the power that was about to be unleashed.

The cultivation level, increased by 500,000 times, sank back into the depths of his body like a receding tide. The suffocatingly terrifying aura emanating from him quickly dissipated, and the chaotic light around him gradually receded, returning him to his previous calm and undisturbed state.

The oppressive feeling that seemed to devour one's soul vanished without a trace.

From extreme rage to extreme tranquility, it only takes a single breath.

This control over power is more difficult than unleashing it, yet he does it so naturally, as easily as breathing.

Luo Qiushan felt the terrifying feeling that had made her heart palpitate finally dissipate, and she felt a great sense of relief.

She let out a long breath, and even though there was no sweat on her forehead, she subconsciously raised her hand and wiped her smooth forehead with her sleeve.

She only realized how out of line she had been after she had done it.

Who would believe that the dignified Sect Master of the Underworld Nether Emperor Holy Sect would be terrified and break out in a cold sweat in his own Darkness Domain?!

But she couldn't care less about any of that!

Luo Qiushan lowered her hand, a complex, bitter smile appearing on her face. The smile contained bitterness, helplessness, shock, and above all, a bewilderment born from a complete upheaval of her understanding. "Fellow Daoist, I can clearly sense that if you unleash this attack, I will surely die."

She spoke very frankly, without hiding anything or trying to save face.

Upon hearing this answer, Lu Qing'an frowned even more deeply.

His expression was less one of disappointment and more one of surprise, like a boxer who had just warmed up and hadn't even had a chance to throw a punch when his opponent announced his withdrawal.

"This won't do?" he blurted out.

His tone was calm, yet every word pierced the heart.

Upon hearing those four words, Luo Qiushan's mind went blank, and she froze completely.

What do you mean by 'that's not enough'?! Does that mean you can unleash an even stronger attack?!

She let out a near-collapse scream in her heart, but could only maintain that stiff, bitter smile on her face.

Her mind was in complete turmoil, a torrent of thoughts threatening to overwhelm her reason.

Good heavens! Are you even human?! You should know you're only at the Eternal Realm right now!!!

The Eternal Realm, Eternal Realm where not even a single Great Dao has been cultivated.

In the cultivation system of the Hongmeng Holy Realm, cultivators at this level should be as insignificant as ants in front of the Peak Great Dao Realm expert like her.

But this man in the Eternal Realm not only beat her so badly that she couldn't fight back, but he also thought that she was "not good enough", as if she, the dignified sect leader of the Underworld Nether Emperor Holy Sect, was not even qualified to be his opponent.

Luo Qiushan took a deep breath, trying to make her voice sound calmer, but her tone still carried undisguised confusion and disbelief. "Fellow Daoist, are you sure you're really only at the Eternal Realm?"

She needs to confirm it; she absolutely must confirm it.

If Lu Qing'an is truly only at the Eternal Realm, then the cultivation knowledge system she has built up over countless years will have to be completely overturned and rebuilt from scratch today.

Lu Qing'an's answer remained concise and indifferent, as if he were talking about a trivial matter. "Anyway, I haven't cultivated the Great Dao yet."

Without cultivating the Great Dao, one is in the Eternal Realm, without a doubt.

In the cultivation system of the Hongmeng Holy Realm, there is only one standard for distinguishing between the Eternal Realm and the Great Dao Realm.

Has he cultivated the power of the Great Dao?

If you don't have it, you're in the Eternal Realm. If you do have it, you're in the Great Dao Realm

Luo Qiushan opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

A complex mix of emotions surged within her.

Frustration, shock, confusion, and a deep sense of powerlessness.

"How are we supposed to live like this! The Great Dao Realm is actually no match for the Eternal Realm! Is this the terrifying prodigy who can cultivate all the rules?!"

She sighed silently to herself, her gaze fixed on Lu Qing'an's calm face. The more she looked, the more unfathomable this man seemed.

The fact that all three thousand-plus rules have been cultivated to their ultimate level is unprecedented in the history of the Hongmeng Holy Realm. Therefore, no one knows the extent of a cultivator's power once they achieve this.

Today, she became the first person to experience it firsthand.

The result of the experience was a crushing defeat!

A complete and utter crushing defeat!!

"If one were to cultivate to the Great Dao, what terrifying power would they possess?!" This thought involuntarily surfaced in Luo Qiushan's mind, then she realized her imagination was simply insufficient. "I can't imagine! I really can't imagine!!"

Cultivating the Great Dao means that the power of rules will be sublimated into the power of the Great Dao.

If the ultimate form of rules is already so terrifying, what would the ultimate form of the Great Dao be like?

Luo Qiushan suddenly felt as if she were witnessing the birth of an unprecedented legend.

She forcefully suppressed the shock in her heart, replacing it with a serious and expectant expression, her tone carrying a sense of awe and curiosity that she herself was unaware of. "Fellow Daoist, I can't wait to see what you'll be like after you've cultivated the Great Dao!"

This comes from the bottom of my heart.

Although she lost today, and lost completely, she was completely convinced of her defeat at the hands of such a prodigy.

More importantly, she had a vague premonition.

The man before us will one day change the entire landscape of the Hongmeng Holy Realm.

Lu Qing'an, however, did not think that much about it.

He silently considered the information he had gained from their earlier exchange.

"Even she, who has cultivated twenty Great Dao, couldn't withstand me using half a million times my cultivation. And I still have millions of times my cultivation left to use."

He was very satisfied with this conclusion.

Ten thousand times the cultivation level corresponds to the strength of someone who has just entered the Great Dao Realm and possesses a top-tier Great Dao.

His cultivation level of 100,000 times is already close to that of a peak expert like Luo Qiushan who has cultivated twenty different Great Dao.

A cultivation level 500,000 times higher would be enough to crush her.

His total cultivation level is far more than 500,000 times greater, which means that even in the Primordial Hongmeng Holy Realm where powerful beings abound, he is likely still invincible.

"It seems I am still invincible in this Hongmeng Holy Realm." Lu Qing'an concluded in his heart, his tone calm, without any pride or arrogance, as if stating a perfectly ordinary fact. "Of course, whether that's true or not, I'll have to test my skills against the Heavenly Dao."

No matter how strong Luo Qiushan is, she is ultimately just a cultivator.

The level of the Heavenly Dao is completely different from that of cultivators. To truly verify the upper limit of one's strength, one must find a Heavenly Dao -level being as a touchstone.
