Chapter 1697: Three Great Immortal Palaces
Chapter 1697: Three Great Immortal Palaces
This is not just me; there are quite a few people like me who managed to break through the realms they previously couldn't at the same time.
However, the light of breaking through caught the attention of the Demon Hunters, leading to a very large-scale battle.
The Three Great Immortal Palaces and the Demon Hunters started to fight.
At first, it was the Three Great Immortal Palaces against the Demon Hunters, but the commotion grew larger and larger, and eventually more and more cultivators came, resulting in a grand chaotic battle.
In the end, the Three Great Immortal Palaces decided to retreat first. The people we had here were ultimately limited, unlike the endless Demon Hunters of the Foreign Land Space. If we didn't leave, we'd be annihilated.
Under the cover of the Three Great Immortal Palaces, everyone scattered and fled. Since I was familiar, I ran with Hoshino Yuji and Watanabe Kazushi.
There were countless dead, and along the way, I didn't even know how many perished; it truly was a narrow escape from death.
Ling Zhenfei and Lu Yunshang were engrossed in listening, truly not expecting such an exciting story.
Ling Zhenfei asked, "What exactly is that Golden Light?"
Lu Yunshang also asked curiously, "Yes, how did one Golden Light allow so many people to break through their realms?"
Lu Tao said, "Although I don't know what it is, I think it must have something to do with the Star Lord. Only the divine might of the Star Lord could cause such a change."
Lu Yunshang said, "Does this happen every time? If so, I really want to go and see it. Maybe I could directly reach the Pursue Heart State."
Lu Tao said, "What are you thinking? If it happened every time, those three Immortal Palaces would already have gone mad."
Ling Zhenfei paused and said, "Senior, what exactly is the difference between the Pursue Heart State and the Realm of Reaching Wisdom?"
After hearing that, Lu Tao chuckled and said, "The Pursue Heart State, it's truly a wonderful feeling. If you talk about differences, it's a fundamental difference.
For example, if you want to condense a spiritual energy shield, you first need an idea. Once you have the idea, you can condense spiritual energy and then form it into the shape you imagined."
"But in the Pursue Heart State, it's different. If you want to condense a spiritual energy shield, you just need the thought. As soon as you think about the shield, it's successfully condensed."
Ling Zhenfei and Lu Yunshang, both cultivators in the Realm of Reaching Wisdom, understood very well the difference between the two.
Ling Zhenfei said, "If you could control everything merely with thought, it would be too crazy. Wouldn't that be invincible?"
After speaking, Ling Zhenfei saw that Lu Tao remained silent.
Ling Zhenfei knew he had said something wrong, and at this moment, Lu Tao patted Ling Zhenfei and said.
"Zhenfei, what you're now encountering are the most basic things in cultivation. You even just recently learned the names of the Immortal Palaces. Once you truly come into contact with the Immortal Palaces, you will realize how small you were before.
Also, many ordinary people see those in the Realm of Reaching Wisdom and think they are Immortals, but we also see the higher-level experts in the same way.
This saying 'there's always a taller mountain' is truly accurate, so never be satisfied with yourself unless you truly can't progress anymore. Satisfaction only serves as comfort in tough times."
Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "I know I said something wrong."
Lu Tao earnestly said, "I just gave you the simplest example; even Hoshino Yuji, Watanabe Kazushi, and I, all possessing Pursue Heart State strength.
But together, under the hand of that Demon Hunter, we had no power to fight back. Do you now understand how small you are?"
Ling Zhenfei was quite shocked after hearing this, incredulously saying, "You three couldn't even fight back together? This person is too formidable! Could it be this person's strength is already at the Traceless State?"
Lu Yunshang also asked in shock, "Can someone truly reach the Pursue Heart State?"
Both looked at Lu Tao, who said, "We couldn't see through this person's strength, but at least it's at the Great Perfection of the Pursue Heart State, maybe even truly Traceless."
Ling Zhenfei asked again, "What's the difference between the Traceless and Pursue Heart states, Senior, do you know?"
Lu Tao said, "I've reached the Pursue Heart State, so I can tell you about that feeling, but I've never attained the higher-level Traceless State, so I can't say for sure.
But I clearly remember the person who injured us had an incredibly fast speed. Initially, we could condense a defense spirit shield in front of us with just a thought, but who would have thought, their speed exceeded our thinking speed."
The conversation with Lu Tao greatly benefited Ling Zhenfei, and he was deeply stunned, realizing someone truly had a speed so fast; it was truly unbelievable.
Ling Zhenfei asked somewhat unwillingly, "Senior, I'm very curious, a Demon Hunter from the Foreign Land Space can possess such high strength. Are there experts of this level on our side?"
Lu Tao said, "Of course, in the Tianling Spirit Palace, Wuliang Immortal Palace, and South Sea Immortal Palace, surely there are very powerful experts. There might also be formidable experts in some hidden sects."
Ling Zhenfei's imagination ran wild, "If the divine master's prophecy is true, then if the Demon King is reborn, how strong do you think this Demon King would be, in terms of level?
Traceless, Spirit Driving, Soul Control, Soul Condensing?"
Lu Tao said, "If it can't reach Divinity, it doesn't deserve to be called the Demon King."
Ling Zhenfei looked shocked, "You mean to say this Demon King possesses Divinity-level strength?"
Lu Tao said, "How terrifying is that? That is why all the major sects are striving to find the Heavenly God Sword.
With the Heavenly God Sword, you can inherit the consciousness of the Star Lord; by that time, there will be someone who can rival the Demon King."
Numerous thoughts swirled in Ling Zhenfei's mind. He finally solved many mysteries he harbored and understood why they all talked about trying their luck in the Foreign Land Space.
Why many people knowingly risk death to go there, as the saying goes, the greater the risk, the greater the reward. If by any chance someone luckily found the Heavenly God Sword.
Then they would indeed be powerful, inheriting the will of the Star Lord, becoming the strongest cultivator in the world.
However, if Ling Zhenfei had a choice, he would still choose not to venture into the Foreign Land Space. Such major matters should be left to the Three Great Immortal Palaces and the major sects; it's not something a humble doctor like him can do.
Chatting with Lu Tao, they talked until the afternoon, and Ling Zhenfei checked the time, realizing they couldn't keep chatting like this.
He advised Lu Tao to rest well, and then returned to Xishan Manor.
As soon as he got back, someone came looking for Ling Zhenfei.
"Boss Ling, I'm the deputy manager of this Xishan Fan Festival, and my name is He Sheng."
Ling Zhenfei looked at the young man, who seemed capable and efficient, not pretentious, conducting himself with poise whether speaking or acting.
Ling Zhenfei was quite satisfied with this person in his heart.
"Why are you looking for me?"
