The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 452 The Beginningless Desire to Leave
Not only in terms of the number and quality of cultivators, but also in the territory and cultivation environment of this strange world... it is incomparable to the world of Shrouding the Heavens.

On the surface, the world of "Covering the Sky" and the world of "Strange World" are not even in the same league.

Because the strange world is vast and has many powerful beings, it is impossible for a single Dao-proving individual to reign supreme like in the world of Shrouding the Heavens.

Instead, a chaotic situation emerged with one superpower, four strong powers, and countless large and small forces intertwined.

When discussing the chaotic situation in the strange world, one cannot help but mention the powerful Celestial Venerables of that world.

Perhaps it's because the environment of the strange world is too relaxed and too comfortable, not as cruel and difficult as the world of Shrouding the Heavens, and the lifespan is also very long.

In this strange world, the level of power among the Celestial Venerables is either extremely low or extremely high.

Most of them had average combat strength, probably around the same as a self-severed Supreme Being, slightly stronger than a Great Perfection Holy Spirit or a Great Accomplishment Holy Body, but far inferior to the ancient emperors of the Shrouding the Heavens world.

It is no exaggeration to say that one ancient emperor in the world of "Covering the Sky" can defeat two or three celestial beings in the strange world.

However, their lifespans are too long. In such a long period of time, naturally some exceptionally talented Celestial Venerables will advance further and stand out.

Some of them are comparable to ordinary Great Emperors, some are comparable to powerful Great Emperors like Void Eternal Universe, and five of them far surpass the Great Emperor level. Even the weakest of them can reach the Heavenly Emperor level as defined by Li Daoming himself.

These five individuals are recognized as the strongest in the strange world. They have all fought against more than ten Celestial Venerables without defeat and even killed many of them. They are regarded as demigods.

Moreover, these are not real-time battle records, but records from hundreds of thousands of years ago, or even nearly two million years ago.

With their natural talent, after such a long period of cultivation, they naturally wouldn't stagnate. Only one of them was still at the Heavenly Emperor level as defined by Li Daoming, while the rest had surpassed the Heavenly Emperor level and reached a higher level.

Although there are five demigods in the strange world who have reached or even surpassed the level of the Heavenly Emperor.

However, the strange world is not a five-way struggle for supremacy, but rather a one-superpower-four-strong force. The four forces join forces to fight against one force, and many celestial beings either join the struggle or remain outside and form their own forces.

The reason for this situation is that the strongest half-immortal in the strange world is too powerful, and it takes the combined efforts of the other four half-immortals to fight against him.

Moreover, they could not win the battle, and could only barely put up a fight against the enemy.

There are even rumors that they fought again two or three hundred thousand years ago, and that all four of them were defeated when they joined forces.

Previously, Li Daoming's Dao body, the incarnation of Wushi, entered the strange world and happened to land in the territory of that strongest half-immortal. Because the commotion was too great, it alarmed him and they fought each other.

His strength was extremely terrifying, much stronger than the previous Undying Emperor, but still much weaker than the Emperor. Although Li Daoming's Yin-Yang Dao Body could fight him, it was still weaker than him. Moreover, without the support of his true self, he could not sustain a prolonged battle. He estimated that he had already lived through his seventh life.

And unsurprisingly, he should be the same mortal immortal from the strange world who joined forces with the Undying Emperor and was an enemy of Wushi in the original work.

As for the other four half-immortals, Li Daoming's Chaotic Dao Body had also tested them. One was equivalent to the Heavenly Emperor level as defined by Li Daoming, and the other three were equivalent to the Medicine Immortal level as defined by Li Daoming.

(P.S.: Not counting the elixir of immortality, the second-generation Heavenly Emperor, the third-generation Medicine Immortal, the fourth-generation True Immortal...)
They did not appear in the original work. Li Daoming guessed that they might have perished halfway through, or that their strength was not up to par later on, making them ineligible to appear. Moreover, the possibility of them perishing halfway through was very high.

Two or three hundred thousand years ago, even if they joined forces, they were no match for the strongest half-immortal in the strange world. At most, they could severely injure that half-immortal before they died in battle.

But now that strongest immortal has lived for seven lifetimes and his strength has greatly increased. Even if they join forces, it is useless. They can't even seriously injure him.

"Hmm!" Wu Shi nodded slightly. He had made up his mind to personally take Di Lisi and Hun Ming to the strange world. Although his cultivation in the human realm was not slow, he saw no hope of surpassing Li Daoming.

Every time he made significant progress and sought to spar with Li Daoming, he would find that Li Daoming's progress was no less than his, and sometimes even greater.

As a result, his strength was always roughly the same as Li Daoming's Chaotic Dao Body.

Now that he has a much wider world to explore, he wants to challenge the strong and perhaps surpass Li Daoming.

As for Delis, although she survived her third life with his help, the road ahead was not so easy.

Although her original aptitude and comprehension were not bad, they were not very strong either. He did not specialize in the Yin-Yang Dao, and the gap between him and her was no longer so large. Although there was a dual cultivation method, it was of limited help to her.

So even now, with the innate sacred body and Dao embryo blood essence, and with his help, she has not been able to perfect the innate sacred body and Dao embryo.

As for other ways to live out the next life, if she asks him to help her take shortcuts, such as helping her cultivate her Dao and helping her condense the Holy Spirit Stone Embryo, she could live out the next life. However, if she takes shortcuts to live out the next life, the gains will definitely be greatly reduced.

If she were to rely on her own understanding and use those methods to live out her next life, it would take her a very long time to fully comprehend those methods.

Rather than staying in the human world, constrained by lifespan and having to resort to tricks to survive the next life, it's better to go to the strange world, where there's enough time to study and thoroughly research, so you can survive the next life on your own.

As for Hunming, he has already lived four lives. However, he used the elixir of immortality in his second life, had a deficiency in his third life, and was helped by Li Daoming in his fourth life.

This resulted in his combat strength being extremely average. Although he could reach the Heavenly Emperor level as classified by Li Daoming, he was relatively average within that level.

Given his circumstances, it's impossible for him to live another life on his own.

Rather than struggling in the human world, plagued by lifespan and struggling to survive, it's better to go to a strange world where one can be free from the constraints of lifespan for millions of years.

Perhaps in the long course of time, one can live another life and further improve one's cultivation and strength.

Seeing Wu Shijian's resolute attitude, and knowing that he had made up his mind, Li Daoming sighed softly and decided not to try to persuade him any further.

At this moment, Li Daoming was also slightly speechless. The Undying Emperor had been killed by them, and he originally thought that Wushi would not have run to the strange world.

Unexpectedly, in this life, he ended up in a strange world because of this. This fate is truly mysterious.

To be honest, Li Daoming was really reluctant to let Wushi take Dilisi and Hunming into the strange world.

In the human realm, only Wushi could barely fight him.

He can fight even more enjoyably when he only uses the Chaos Dao Body or the World Dao Body.

As for the others, the gap between them and him is too great, or their relationship is too close, so fighting them wouldn't be enjoyable.

Furthermore, the Great Dao Laws they comprehended also greatly benefited him in perfecting the Three Thousand Laws.

He was naturally reluctant to see them leave.
