"Is that... the aura of Immortal Master Gu!? Has he grown stronger again!?"
Zhao Xi was first shocked, then sincerely delighted by his achievement, "Good! Good! This is just wonderful!"
"What kind of monster is this Immortal Master Gu... Where did he come from!?"
Central Heaven Purple Light Immortal Lord took a deep breath.
Originally, he was second only to Zhao Xi as the most powerful being in Immortal Country, even in the entire Longevity World, but upon learning that Gu Jinlai had slain Master Xuanling, he realized his position as the second in the Longevity World had slipped through his fingers, especially now, feeling Gu Jinlai soaring into the sky, shoulder to shoulder with the sun...
He felt a profound sense of powerlessness.
However, West Heavenly Spirit Jade Immortal Master, who had once fought "side by side" with Gu Jinlai, showed a trace of admiration in his expression, "Is this the might of the Innate Sacred? Truly unparalleled and unbelievable."
Gu Jinlai was unaware of the shock his ultimate form had brought to the entire Longevity World.
At this moment, he had transformed into a giant of two thousand kilometers...
To be exact, a giant of over nineteen hundred kilometers, and he could clearly feel that the whole world seemed to have shrunk before him.
He didn’t even need to use any Divine Skills or launch any attacks; merely flying over a city...
Or even just walking through one, was enough to turn that city into rubble.
Moreover, such a gigantic size seemed to allow better utilization of the electromagnetic fields within his body, changing the forces of gravity between himself and the stars, and the nuclear forces between matter.
Only now these changes were not obvious and had not truly undergone a transformation.
"The reason I haven’t transformed... Is it because some aspect of the Great Sun Eternal Method linked to the Chaotic Star Light Body can’t keep up? Or is it that my understanding of the stars lacks some crucial refinement?"
However, after a moment, he refocused his attention on his current state.
Maintaining the form of the "Light Giant" nearly two thousand kilometers tall, he was consuming terrifying amounts of energy every moment.
In just this short time, even the dual-stabilized Great Sun Core felt overwhelmed and began to tremble slightly.
"How could such a brief moment be used for battle?"
Gu Jinlai condensed his form, "This shape seems to be good for nothing but intimidation."
At most, it was like a moving natural disaster.
He quickly reduced his form to thirteen hundred kilometers.
Gu Jinlai voiced out.
An Immortal Master who has absorbed Grotto Heavens and Heavenly Dao into his body has reached the Profound Immortal Realm.
For Innate Sacred beings who rely on their own power without entrusting their strength to Grotto Heavens, when they possess combat power not inferior to that of an Immortal Master, they have essentially stepped into the Profound Immortal Domain.
And now, with a Burst Form of thirteen hundred kilometers, he was not only stronger than an Immortal Master, but even the newly ascended Profound Immortals were likely left far behind by him.
"But it’s not entirely true; compared to Immortal Masters, a major distinction of Profound Immortals is the Divine Sense Realm. With a powerful Divine Sense, they can easily integrate Grotto Heavens and Heavenly Dao into their bodies and similarly, with a powerful Divine Sense, they can control and utilize their own strength more deftly. This advantage can’t be matched just by the ’stability’ trait of the Great Sun Eternal Method."
Gu Jinlai recalled a rumor.
With equivalent volume and strength, beasts cannot conquer humans.
Just as in the same realm, Innate Divine Beasts and Innate Sacred beings are not a match for True Immortals and Heavenly Immortals.
The former is a distinction between wisdom and non-wisdom.
The latter is a difference in Divine Sense Realm and innate talent.
"Divine Sense Realm!"
Gu Jinlai muttered to himself.
This concept is of little use to low-level cultivators.
Only Devas experience this power for the first time.
Gu Jinlai followed the path of the Heavenly Master, which itself places great emphasis on the cultivation of soul power, especially after condensing a True Spirit and peeping into the True Spirit Realm, he could directly perceive the origin of many powers.
In other words, they could almost directly see the operation of Heavenly Dao.
This capability is much more useful than the earlier Divine Sense Realm.
There was no further path for the Heavenly Monarch.
The stage of Great Sky Lord is the limit of the Heavenly Master Path; proceeding further to the creator is practically becoming a tool person assimilated by the power emanated by a terrifying existence hidden deep within the True Spirit Realm.
Or perhaps a Demon Spirit, a monster in the eyes of cultivators.
He wanted to continue his journey...
"Refining Essence into Energy, Qi Refining and God Transformation, before the True Immortal Realm, cultivators cannot totally abandon the body; in certain situations, they still retain the traits of Refining Essence into Energy. Only after reaching the True Immortal Realm, are the cultivators’ bodies completely forged from the Five Elements Essence between heaven and earth, bringing Refining Essence into Energy to perfection... From now on, it’s just about Qi Refining."
Gu Jinlai speculated in his heart, "Then is there a possibility, once entering the Refining God Returning Void Realm, that cultivators no longer need to accumulate energy, or perhaps, they have penetrated the mystery of energy conversion and can easily obtain limitless energy, with only the Divine Sense Ability restricting their power?"
At this thought, he suddenly remembered his current state.
The Great Sun Eternal Method, under certain circumstances, does embody the trait of limitless energy, doesn’t it?
"No, the Great Sun Eternal Method can only make my energy increase infinitely, but it doesn’t mean I’ve penetrated the mystery of energy conversion to possess limitless energy..."
Gu Jinlai quickly dismissed this speculation.
After all, the Great Sun Eternal Method was merely a golden Skill.
That speculation just now vaguely pointed him towards the ultimate direction of the cultivation path.
