Above the Great Dao

Chapter 1182 547: Heavenly Venerate Unrivaled

The Heavenly Venerate's chest glowed with rosy clouds, corresponding exactly to the divine light in the Taiji Obscured Heaven. Wu Qi's strike aimed at his heart, but the Heavenly Venerate's Dao Patterns instinctively blocked it, signifying his understanding of this divine light was already perfect.

However, the Heavenly Venerate was taken aback, feeling a faint pain in his chest.

If not for his timely reaction, his life would have been taken by Wu Qi's strike!

The two of them exchanged swift blows; the Heavenly Venerate, while avoiding the rosy clouds of the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence, also had to face Wu Qi directly. Although the Great Wilderness Ming Dao Collection was a highly advanced Immortal Law, he appeared somewhat flustered.

He feared Wu Qi not at all, but was extremely terrified of the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence.

This treasure was even more potent than last time, flawless in Daoist Skill. Only because Wu Qi's cultivation was much lower could he escape the coverage of the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence. If Wu Qi had been just a notch higher in cultivation, he would likely have been incinerated to death in the sea of flames.

Therefore, he would never fall into the rosy clouds of the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence a second time.

Wu Qi's greatest strength lay in his explosive power in close combat. In the battle with the Da Shang Heavenly Court, his final strike was so powerful that it struck down the Heavenly Venerate, blasting him from the Heavenly Court to the moon, with an unmatched might.

Even the Heavenly Venerate did not dare to parry his close combat attacks with his physical body.

In a matter of moments, they clashed hundreds of times. Suddenly, as the Heavenly Venerate avoided the rosy clouds of the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence, Wu Qi leaped, his body soaring and shaking, revealing a colossal Immortal God form, breaking into the Taiji Obscured Heaven, shattering the sun and moon in the Dao Realm.

The Heavenly Venerate felt darkness before his eyes as Wu Qi descended from the sky, falling from his Dao Realm. With fingers spread wide, countless golden swords flew out, slicing and spinning, aiming for the Heavenly Venerate's eyes!

The flaw of the second move lay in the sun and moon within the Taiji Obscured Heaven, corresponding exactly to the Heavenly Venerate's eyes!

The Heavenly Venerate looked up, Dao Patterns in his pupils rotated, forming a peculiar array, a thick divine light emitted, shattering Wu Qi's divine skills to pieces!

Wu Qi dodged, seeing two thick divine lights tear through the sky of Despair Slope, blasting two hundred-mile-wide holes in the Heavenly Dome, which took a long time to restore.

By the time Wu Qi steadied himself, the sun and moon in the Heavenly Venerate's Dao Realm had already returned to their original state.

Chen Shi frowned again; the second flaw wasn't a flaw either.

Or perhaps it was a flaw, but the time was too short, and with the Heavenly Venerate's reaction speed, they simply couldn't seize that momentary weakness.

"Though his understanding of the Yin Yang Qi isn't as good as mine, it's still very high," Chen Shi thought.

Both the Heavenly Venerate and he had an understanding of the Yin Yang Qi not as profound as that of the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence, which was why the Heavenly Venerate found it hard to escape it. If it were Chen Shi, he would also be unable to escape the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence.

"Five moves left," Chen Shi thought to himself.

He glanced at Chen Yindou in the distance, wondering, "Can grandfather deduce where the Heavenly Venerate's harmonization realm is hidden?"

The main purpose of Chen Yindou's journey, apart from looking for flaws in the Heavenly Venerate, was to find the actual location of the Heavenly Venerate's Harmonization Land based on his manipulation of the Dao Realm during the battle.

If the location of the Harmonization Land could be known, breaking his Dao Realm would undermine his cultivation, making it much easier to kill him.

This is why Immortals often hide the real location of their Dao Realm. Even in a life-and-death struggle, they only temporarily summon the Dao Realm, hiding it afterwards.

--- Only a deity like Lady Houtu, who governs everything above and below the ground, can pinpoint the location of Immortals' Dao Realm.

At this moment, Wu Qi launched his third killing move, the Flask of Yin and Yang Essence sweeping the starlit sky of the Heavenly Venerate's Dao Realm, leaving the Heavenly Venerate shocked as Wu Qi approached and tapped his forehead.

The Heavenly Venerate laughed loudly, a stream of starlight surged from his forehead, like a brilliant starry sky, causing Wu Qi's lethal strike to seemingly pierce into the cosmos, unable to harm him at all.

"The third flaw is also not a flaw."

Chen Shi observed from afar, calculating the time from Wu Qi's destruction of the Heavenly Venerate's Dao Realm starlight to the Heavenly Venerate's reaction, and shook his head gently, convinced that no one could capitalize on that fleeting flaw to kill the Heavenly Venerate.

"Four places left."

He gathered his focus and continued to watch.

In the distance, Chen Yindou's attention was no longer on the Heavenly Venerate, but focused on pinpointing the exact location of the Taiji Obscured Heaven.

The battle between the Heavenly Venerate and Wu Qi grew more intense. The fourth flaw was soon tested but proved, too, not to be a real flaw. The fifth move was quickly tested as well, also being no flaw.

On the Jade Pearl Pavilion of the Heavenly Dao Academy, Yang Bi was somewhat panicked, again feeling the dread he felt in the Upper Realm when facing Feng Ruotong.

Back then, Feng Ruotong entered the Upper Realm alone, facing nearly two thousand Heavenly God-like deities, wielding a peach blossom branch. Wherever the blossoms appeared, petals danced in the wind; in a short time, they filled the boundless Upper Realm, becoming an unparalleled lethal move.

Feng Ruotong carried out a massacre in the Flower Sea, slaughtering Ancestor Gods of the Thirteen Families, scattering all Immortal Artifacts, slaying the old ancestors of the Thirteen Families who were just a step from the Immortal Realm, single-handedly destroying the Upper Realm.

At that time, Yang Bi felt an unbeatable sense of despair and fear in his heart.

Now, that feeling returned with a vengeance, oppressing his spirit, causing his heart to race wildly, its sound echoing in his ears like thunder.
