194: Chapter 194 One Year Later, the Top Dog Among Quasi-Immortal Emperors!

Jingle, jingle~... The copper bells rang continuously. Fang Qingyao, shyly covering her crimson, pretty face, did not dare to look at Xu Jinhuan.

"Mas... Revered Master, can you take them off..." Fang Qingyao finally mustered her courage to plead.

However, she was met with Xu Jinhuan's refusal. "No!"

The sound of the copper bells grew clearer and clearer. "Hehe, as expected, prop games are truly interesting. This sense of novelty is simply amazing!" Xu Jinhuan chuckled lewdly.

"Revered Master, please spare me, wuwu~..."

"Don't say things like 'spare my life'. Come, be good, turn around!"

"Sister Chang Xi, save me!"

... Another year passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, the women around Xu Jinhuan rarely had any sober days. Every day, they were in a state of muddled consciousness, lacking even the strength to dream.

Correspondingly, their Realms underwent earth-shaking changes. Several of them had already achieved a Breakthrough to the Heavenly Immortal Realm. The speed was so fast that even their instructor, Yun Mengli, found it hard to believe.

Of course, the one who progressed the most was still Xu Jinhuan.

Others ate dumplings occasionally. Xu Jinhuan ate seven meals a day!

In just one short year, he surged from the Second Level of the True Immortal Realm to the Peak of the Ninth Level of the True Immortal Realm, only one step away from the Heavenly Immortal Realm, which he could enter at any time.

However, for the current Xu Jinhuan, the Realm was no longer important; it was just a bonus. What was truly important was his comprehension of the Dao.

The greatest benefit of Cultivating in dreams was the ability to escape into a deep spiritual world, sharing the Heavenly Dao rules of the Endless Immortal Domain, but the fluctuations caused by Cultivation were more secretive. They would not be detected by the Peak Immortal Kings of the real world.

With this, he successfully comprehended twenty ordinary Daos, such as Fate, Karma, and Reincarnation, reaching their ends and achieving a height that Peak Immortal Kings outside could hardly reach.

With the blessing of over twenty Daos, Xu Jinhuan's combat power was no longer what it used to be, having risen to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level!

"Now, my Divine Thought can cover one percent of the Endless Immortal Domain, and I can cross most of the Endless Immortal Domain in a single day. In many worlds, I could be called a conceptual god. Even so, I am only a Quasi-Immortal Emperor. I really don't know what the true Immortal Emperor Realm would be like!"

Having truly stood at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, Xu Jinhuan was filled with emotion. In his heart, he felt even more awe and longing for the Immortal Emperor Realm.

"When I reach that step, I should be able to help Revered Master, right?"

Putting aside his scattered thoughts, Xu Jinhuan walked into the depths of an immortal vein, casually refining countless treasures, operating the Eternal Myriad Dao Art, and continuing to comprehend new Daos.

At the same time, he divided many thoughts to read various ancient classics he had obtained in the past, summarizing and inducing from them to deduce higher-level Cultivation Techniques. His improvement was still continuing!

... Outer Territory Battlefield.

A brilliant and talented woman guarded the deepest part of the Void Realm!

Behind her, a bright, clear moon hung high, covering the sky and blocking the sun, suppressing countless Universes like Ganges sand. Its light was soft yet brilliant, wantonly spilling over the past, present, and future, piercing through endless time and space.

It was none other than Li Qingyue, who had been leading a group of Quasi-Immortal Emperors in declaring war on the outer territory creatures for over a year!

At this moment, her aura was vast and boundless, her pressure sweeping across the entire Void Realm. She had clearly fully recovered her Peak strength and returned to the Immortal Emperor Realm!

Before her, the battle at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level had already reached white-hot intensity. The sounds of killing shook the heavens, and blood Qi permeated the Chaos.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" One after another, the Quasi-Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Domain roared, not hesitating to sublimate to the extreme, burning their own Origins, and rushing towards the strong enemies from the outer territory, disregarding their own lives. Every strike carried a terrifying determination to perish together!

However, their opponents were surrounded by a strange aura that was incompatible with this world, as if they were being extremely rejected by the Heavenly Dao of the Endless Immortal Domain, forcibly suppressing their original Immortal Emperor Realm to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level.

Even so, they were ultimately existences who had once ascended to the Immortal Emperor Realm. Even if their Realms were suppressed, the combat power they erupted with at the same level was far superior to that of the native Quasi-Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Domain.

A mere fourteen outer territory figures had completely suppressed the twenty-four Quasi-Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Domain, beating them into a steady retreat with almost no power to fight back. The situation was in imminent danger!

"Qingya, how is the battle situation? Do you need me to make a move?" Li Qingyue looked at the tragic battle below and transmitted her voice to her younger sister, Li Qingya, her tone full of worry.

"Sister, you don't need to make a move. You have your own arch-enemy; you must not lose sight of the big picture for the sake of the small!"

On the battlefield below, her younger sister, Li Qingya, glanced at the other side of the Void Realm rift and shook her head.

In the direction she was gazing, a terrifying existence was hidden in the darkness of the Chaos, looking down at the entire battlefield expressionlessly, without sorrow or joy, yet emitting a pressure that surpassed the Immortal Emperor level. Even without making a move, it still gave everyone in the Endless Immortal Domain immense pressure! It was definitely an existence above the Immortal Emperor level! Only Li Qingyue could deal with such a creature!

Hearing this, Li Qingyue also dismissed the idea of making a move, saving her strength to maintain her Peak state, ready to deal with the opponent's surprise attack at any time. At the Immortal Emperor level, even a small flaw could become the key to the battle!

The opponent was not in a hurry either. It just watched Li Qingyue quietly, a trace of playfulness flashing in its eyes, as if waiting for her to make a move and consume her strength before carrying out the final harvest.

Seeming to worry that her sister might act impulsively, Li Qingya specially transmitted a message to persuade her: "Although we are at a disadvantage, the other side also cherishes their lives and is afraid of falling, so they dare not push too hard. We can at least resist for another thousand years!"

"A thousand years?" Li Qingyue murmured, temporarily giving up the plan to make a move. Her gaze flickered, sorrowful and mournful, but eventually returned to calmness. "That's fine. No matter how much of a Prodigy he is, he shouldn't be able to catch up in a thousand years. I will use my last bit of strength to send him away."

... Another half a month passed.

Xu Jinhuan finally emerged from his retreat. His entire aura became increasingly ordinary, as if he were a Mortal who had never Cultivated. Even if a Quasi-Immortal Emperor came, they would be unable to see through his strength.

Although his Cultivation was still at the Peak of the True Immortal Realm, he was still one step away from the Heavenly Immortal Realm. But this was intentional on Xu Jinhuan's part; to ensure a solid Foundation, a Breakthrough in the Realm should happen naturally, like water overflowing when full.

However, he was not without progress. In these last half a month, he had comprehended another Dao Law, reaching the end of the path, standing shoulder to shoulder with ancient sages, or even surpassing them. His already profound background had added another brick to the wall! His combat power had once again skyrocketed! He could be called the top dog among Quasi-Immortal Emperors!

"Now, I can challenge any Quasi-Immortal Emperor!" Xu Jinhuan was now terrifyingly strong! The Peak Immortal Kings at the pinnacle of the Endless Immortal Domain could be destroyed by him with a flick of a finger!

"With this kind of strength, I am fully qualified to participate in the Quasi-Immortal Emperor battlefield and support Revered Master!" Xu Jinhuan was high-spirited.

The rationality of the Eternal Chaos Body, however, immediately poured a bucket of cold water on him. Whenever he wanted to set off, his right eyelid would twitch uncontrollably. This was a sign of disaster. If he really went to the Outer Territory Battlefield, he would likely be in grave danger!

Xu Jinhuan had always trusted his intuition. "It seems this matter is not that simple. It's better to play it safe. It won't be too late to go after I truly possess the strength of the Immortal Emperor level."

"And it just so happens that I can go and deal with the local old friends first."
