Follow the path of Dao from infancy Chapter 1820 Chapter 477: The Great Battle Begins
Previously on Follow the path of Dao from infancy...
The Celestial Venerate represents not only a realm but also a physical entity.
Li Hao sensed that within the Martial Arts Eight Realms, the Heavenly Human Realm held the deepest mystery.
The Extreme Realm involves transforming into an immortal, and at its utmost limit, it lets one reach the elusive essence of the Celestial Venerate.
As Li Hao connected with this Celestial Venerate, fully attuned to the cosmos, he began to blend gradually with it, joining that impassive form and becoming unified with its structure.
Via that grand and supreme form, Li Hao detected a frightening consciousness; every law and every element across the universe appeared under his command, poised for activation!
"The Final Realm... merely a stage, but it grants access to such an entity."
Li Hao perceived the dread in this Celestial Venerate's presence, as though it matched the Heavenly Dao in stature.
In that instant, through the Void Realm State of Mind, Li Hao's Immortal Body broke down into myriad particles that delved into the Celestial Venerate's form. During this intimate fusion, his grasp on the wielding of Heaven and Earth Power sharpened immensely.
He attempted to command the Celestial Venerate's form but found no way to act. It felt like a greater, more steadfast, and immense force dominated this form.
A barrage of ideas raced through Li Hao's thoughts, leading him to a deeper realization all at once.
What defines a realm? It's simply the gathering of specific power.
And so it goes for everything in the universe.
Mountains, rivers, stones, living beings—all formed from amassed materials.
His own forging of the Tao Origin Immortal Seal counted as a type of power and realm; this Celestial Venerate resembled the Tao Origin Immortal Seal in nature.
"But who exactly devised this Final Realm?"
Li Hao whispered inwardly, feeling that the creator of the Ultimate Realm of Celestial Venerate had to be a supremely powerful Immortal Emperor!
His form pulled back from the Celestial Venerate's structure, gradually reassembling in the emptiness, forming a miniature Celestial Venerate that mirrored the original form.
"Commanding every law, directing all paths, free from destiny's chains, beyond heaven's limits, surpassing the Tao Realm, hailed as Celestial Venerate!"
As this Final Realm took shape, Li Hao positioned himself at the Peak Spring's heart, his figure radiating light, as if rooted in the now while also spanning the remote past and the yet-to-come, untouched by time and space, impervious to countless paths.
"So this is... the pinnacle of the Heavenly Human Realm, dominating all laws, shielded from all paths!"
Right then, Li Hao achieved the Fifth Ultimate Realm!
Moreover, he commanded four additional Ultimate Realms: the Universal Force Ultimate Realm and Divine Blood.
Circulation Ultimate Realm, All Heavens Star Vein.
Divine Traveling Realm, True God.
Three Immortalities Ultimate Realm, Eternal Immortality.
Of these, the Three Immortalities Ultimate Realm stemmed from the Heavenly Dao Blood gifted to Li Hao by the Dao Origin Immortal Emperor, endowing him with remarkable endurance.
Should the True God Blood form ten thousand drops, the True God would arise, pushing Li Hao's resilience to an outrageously high degree.
The True God proves nearly invincible, forever undying, with body and Divine Soul at their zenith.
Back in the Mortal World, Li Hao had merely tapped a sliver of Celestial Venerate power to defeat various Saint Heirs serving the Void Saint. Now, having conquered the Ultimate Realm of Celestial Venerate, he could wield the forces of countless paths at will, finally grasping the full horror of this Ultimate Realm.
"Unaffected by all paths... No Immortal Monarch Realm technique can touch me at all."
"During past battles, the Divine King was a reincarnated Quasi-Emperor, but without the Ultimate Realm of Celestial Venerate, or else I couldn't have influenced him in the least!"
The Immortal Monarch Realm harnesses power still rooted in the Tao Realm and Immortal Law, rendered harmless against the Celestial Venerate!
As for the Immortal King Realm, beyond the Tao Realm and Immortal Law, it includes Realm power.
Yet that Realm power builds upon the Tao Realm and the laws of myriad paths. Strip away the Tao Realm and those laws, and the raw Realm power weakens considerably.
Realm power packs a punch but relies on a foundational driving force.
"In this Celestial Venerate state, any assault from the Immortal King Realm, no matter the tier, loses ninety percent of its force!"
Li Hao's insights crystallized; this Ultimate Realm of Celestial Venerate terrified beyond measure, impervious to all paths, rising above the 'Tao.' Any power tied to the Tao Realm fails to impact him.
The Celestial Venerate integrates with the universe while standing apart from it; only pure Realm Power or superior Emperor Dao power might inflict damage.
"A matching Immortal King Realm foe, after ninety percent power reduction, poses no threat whatsoever. Even an Immortal King two or three tiers above becomes barely dangerous post-reduction, unless a far superior Immortal King could perhaps land a minor injury!"
Li Hao pondered silently.
Though only at the First Level Immortal King Realm, the Ultimate Realm of Celestial Venerate let him challenge those of higher tiers.
This Ultimate Realm of Celestial Venerate amounted to a ninety percent defensive barrier for oneself, practically like bending the rules!
Still, each Ultimate Realm offered something uniquely potent, almost rule-breaking, such as the All Heavens Star Vein's boundless immortal power—solo battles wouldn't drain you, utterly overpowered.
The True God Realm speaks for itself, while the Divine Blood Ultimate Realm ranks as the least among them, yet it enabled Li Hao to escape Saint Realm hunters right after entering the Tao Comprehension Realm, defying the odds.
"Surprisingly, the Void Realm State of Mind unlocked the Ultimate Realm of Celestial Venerate—a breakthrough on two fronts at the same time!"
Li Hao emerged from the Celestial Venerate state, sinking back into the spring, his grin impossible to contain.
Prior clashes at the border had instilled even in him, ever calm and detached, a pressing need for greater strength.
In these turbulent times, who could afford to lack a blade by their side?
At last, he could genuinely safeguard himself amid this frontier warzone.
"Time for a feast—summon Shi Miao to savor some Ancient Demon Meat!"
