Continuing this way would lead to a failed breakthrough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, the Dao aura in his body surged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Dao aura merged with the immortal power and formed into an immortal Dao power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Jiang Hao sensed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This breakthrough was nearly certain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The immortal Dao power circulated through his body, making it stronger, and then began impacting the middle stage of the True Immortal Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the immortal energy was vast and boundless, and the Dao energy also attacked the boundary that was within reach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like breaking through a wall in the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hole appeared in the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A ray of light shone in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the view brought by the light was too small.
