Chapter 1478: Chapter 880
"Ah Qing, have you stepped into the Unity Realm Stage?!"
The voice of the Old Cyan Dragon trembled with barely concealed disbelief, and his enormous dragon eyes were filled with incredulity.
It had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, seen countless remarkable and talented individuals, and heard of innumerable astonishing tales.
But it never imagined that one day it would be so shocked by someone’s cultivation speed that it would lose its composure.
The Black Bull and Ming Feng also realized this at the same time and hurriedly sensed Lu Qing’s aura.
With this sensing, they were also stunned.
Indeed!
The aura, the Dao resonance that was integrated with the heavens and the earth, and the barely perceptible yet heart-pounding pressure, without a doubt, belonged to the Unity Realm Stage!
Moreover, it was no ordinary Unity Realm Stage!
More importantly, they discovered that Lu Qing at present was not his true form, but a Divine Thought Avatar.
Divine Thought Avatar!
What does this signify?
It means that Lu Qing’s true form is far more powerful than this avatar before them.
Lu Qing’s true strength is even more terrifying than what they can sense.
A Divine Thought Avatar usually possesses only a fraction of the main body’s strength. Generally speaking, without the suppression of world consciousness, an avatar that can unleash about thirty percent of the main body’s power is already considered extremely formidable.
Most cultivators’ Divine Thought Avatars cannot even reach ten percent of the main body’s strength.
Yet this avatar alone already makes them feel apprehensive.
Just how powerful must the true form be?
What astonishes them even more is that, although Lu Qing’s Divine Thought Avatar simply stands there, not making any movements or displaying any momentum, it gives them an immense sense of oppression.
It’s an instinctive feeling, as if facing an extremely dangerous existence.
Understand that they are all seasoned Unity Realm Stage existences, having lived for hundreds of thousands of years!
Not to mention the Old Cyan Dragon, who has followed Gui Xu Taoist the longest, ever since Gui Xu Taoist was merely in the Primordial Spirit Realm.
Later, when Gui Xu Taoist stepped into the Transformation Realm, the dragon’s power surged as well, cultivating in the Returning Ruins Secret Realm for countless millennia, with a cultivation depth unfathomable.
Its attainments in the Space Dao are such that few in the cosmos can match it.
It can fold, compress, and twist space, exhibiting a variety of incredible divine skills.
Ming Feng and the Black Bull are equally extraordinary in strength.
Ming Feng, in particular, possesses ice element divine power, capable of freezing the heavens and the earth.
If fully unleashed, it can freeze an entire world.
Although the Black Bull is not very smart, its strength is the most formidable.
It does not cultivate laws but focuses on refining its physical body to a hardness surpassing that of Dao Artifacts.
Its skin, tempered over hundreds of thousands of years, has reached an incredible level.
Attacks from ordinary Unity Realm cultivators cannot even leave a mark on it.
When it goes berserk, even the Old Cyan Dragon and Ming Feng have to avoid its path.
Its pair of horns is its Lifebound Magical Treasure, capable of piercing through all obstacles.
Back then, even Mo Cangtian couldn’t withstand a single move from the Black Bull, getting kicked tens of thousands of miles away in a single strike.
Each of them alone could shake any region with their presence.
Yet at this moment, facing just a Divine Thought Avatar of Lu Qing, they felt pressure.
How could this be possible?
Even if Lu Qing has achieved unity, he just recently broke through not long ago.
Logically, a newly breakthrough Unity Realm Stage cultivator, no matter how powerful, should not exert such pressure on these seasoned Unity Realm Stage beings.
Moreover, it’s merely a Divine Thought Avatar!
The difference between the initial stage of unity and veteran Unity Realm Stage, Divine Thought Avatar and main body, is not just vast but worlds apart.
Yet, the pressure was undeniably real, pressing clearly upon their hearts.
For a moment, the Old Cyan Dragon, Black Bull, and Ming Feng were all shocked to the core, simply staring at Lu Qing in a daze, unable to speak for a long time.
The Old Cyan Dragon’s whiskers trembled slightly, Ming Feng’s feathers stood on end involuntarily, and even the ever-fearless Black Bull widened its eyes, not daring to take a single breath.
Lu Qing, meeting their astonished gaze, smiled slightly.
The smile was faint but carried a touch of warmth and composure.
"Not long ago, I was fortunate enough to break through in the Heavenly Origin Great World and step into the Unity Realm Stage," Lu Qing said with a smile.
Hearing Lu Qing admit it personally, the Old Cyan Dragon and the others, although already mentally prepared, couldn’t help but feel a shock in their hearts.
Fortunate breakthrough?
These words seemed casual, but everyone knows the immense chasm between Primordial Spirit and unity.
Cultivators in the Primordial Spirit Realm comprehend Heaven and Earth Rules and understand various paths.
Once the understanding reaches a certain degree, one can attempt to merge the Divine Thought with a particular path to step into the Unity Realm Stage.
This process is fraught with danger.
Because merging Divine Thought with the Great Dao is essentially defying the heavens.
A slight misstep leads to backlash from the Great Dao, with minor consequences of damage to Divine Thought and regress in cultivation, and severe consequences of total destruction of body and soul.
Countless outstanding talents are stuck at the Nine Tribulations of Primordial Spirit for countless years, unable to take the final step.
Numerous brilliant individuals prepare for thousands or even tens of thousands of years to attempt unity, only to end up perishing.
The difficulty of unity is harder than ascending to the heavens.
This is not an empty phrase.
Ming Feng recalled the scene when it attempted to break through to the Unity Realm Stage years ago.
At that time, it had prepared for three thousand years, comprehending its ice element path to the extreme.
With guidance and refinement of the Divine Thought by Gui Xu Taoist, it still had a close encounter at the Ghost Gate.
When that Heavenly Tribulation descended, it thought it was doomed, and only with the assistance of Gui Xu Taoist did it barely make it through.
