Chapter 1151: How Terrifying is the Heavenly Continent
Five months passed in a flash!
The originally smooth and solid Mirror Lake was now broken and riddled with holes, pitted everywhere, but these pits were very shallow, almost only three or four centimeters deep. To describe it in a more trendy way, these were just surface pits!
At this rate, Xu Que felt it would take at least another dozen years to smash to the bottom of the lake.
It was clearly lake water, and it looked like a water surface, but its nature was similar to ice, so it had to be smashed constantly!
Fortunately, Mo Junchen explained that this Mirror Lake didn't need to be smashed to the bottom. Just like some frozen lakes and seas, as long as the surface layer is smashed through, it can be completed.
This made Xu Que breathe a sigh of relief. According to the current efficiency, it would indeed take less than a month to smash through the surface.
However, every time Xu Que's fist landed on the lake surface, he would involuntarily look at Er Gouzi. He vaguely felt that this Er Gouzi had been holding back from beginning to end. Even if the power it exerted was not weaker than Xu Que's own or Mo Junchen's, its appearance of being at ease but pretending to use all its strength always made Xu Que feel something was wrong, suspecting that this Er Gouzi was really pretending to be lazy.
But no matter what, they had persisted for five months, and it wasn't bad for the last month. Xu Que simply was too lazy to squeeze Er Gouzi.
Even to be honest, Xu Que now began to doubt whether his decision to go to the Heavenly Continent so urgently was really too hasty.
During these five months, Xu Que would occasionally transmit sound to Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude to inquire about everything in the Heavenly Continent.
Er Gouzi had already wanted to retreat before, so it advised Xu Que to find a place to hide after going to the Heavenly Continent. Even though it had been shouting about going back for revenge and slapping faces, it only started to show signs of cowardice when it really came to smashing the Mirror Lake and going to the Heavenly Continent.
According to Er Gouzi, the Heavenly Continent is a continent whose overall level is many times stronger than the Earth Continent. Of course, there will also be weak people there, and small cultivators who start cultivating from the Qi Refining stage.
However, the strength of the whole world is obviously much larger than any place in the past.
Previously, Er Gouzi incited Xu Que to find the Dao Fetus Divine Body of the Saint Sect for revenge as soon as he went back, and also those other geniuses who had pursued Jiang Hongyan could not be let go.
But after Xu Que inquired about this for a few months, he almost wanted to vomit blood.
The Saint Sect's Dao Fetus Divine Body had already reached the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm when Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude fled the Heavenly Continent, and his physical body realm was infinitely close to the Great Accomplishment Dao Fetus Divine Body, possessing a mid-grade Immortal Artifact, and his combat power was extremely strong.
Xu Que didn't need to doubt at all that such a person could fight three or five Golden Immortal experts alone if he were placed in the Earth Continent.
Even those other geniuses of the Heavenly Palace Academy who had pursued Jiang Hongyan were almost all in the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and each had their own famous life-bound Immortal Artifact, and their combat power was very strong.
This made Xu Que feel a suffocating sense of pressure. Every time he reached invincibility in one place, he would immediately find that he was just sitting in a well and watching the sky, and there were countless more powerful existences above him.
Although this looks very bloody, reality is just like this.
Only when your cultivation level, strength, and even status reach a sufficiently high level will you be qualified to discover higher existences, and even understand more clearly the gap between yourself and others.
Xu Que is in this situation now. Even if he hasn't reached the level of invincibility in the Earth Continent, he is already qualified to come into contact with higher-level existences.
Although those geniuses are only at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, they are still different from those Heavenly Immortal experts in the Earth Continent.
Just like Xu Que, who can already kill ordinary Heavenly Immortal experts across levels, he believes that those geniuses in the Heavenly Continent can also do the same as him when they are in the Human Immortal Realm.
So, by comparison, Xu Que really felt that he had no advantages.
First of all, there is no need to talk about talent. Geniuses have a limit for geniuses, which cannot be infinitely magnified. To some extent, Xu Que can only rely on talent and strength to cultivate, but people with high talent like him actually exist, such as those geniuses in the Heavenly Continent, whose talent might not be weaker than Xu Que, and some might even be stronger than him.
In this case, the only things that can be compared are hard strength and equipment!
In terms of strength, others are in the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and Xu Que is only in the Human Immortal Realm. This part has already lost half.
In terms of equipment, others have Immortal Artifacts, and even mid-grade Immortal Artifacts. Xu Que only has the low-grade Immortal Artifact Wind Fire Wheels, plus a low-grade Immortal Artifact sword with a sword spirit, which can barely be a tie.
So comparing the comprehensive combat power, Xu Que really felt that he had no advantages.
Going to the Heavenly Continent, he would still become an ant.
And the most critical point is that those Heavenly Immortal geniuses are not the big enemies. The truly difficult ones are the forces behind those geniuses, such as the Saint Sect, an existence that has stood in the Heavenly Continent for many years and has a huge force, and its foundation is extremely terrifying.
According to Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude, that Dao Fetus Divine Body of the Saint Sect travels in the Heavenly Palace Academy every day, but there are at least a dozen Golden Immortal experts acting as guardians secretly, not to mention the overall strength of the entire Saint Sect.
So, with such a huge gap, Xu Que really doubted whether he was too impulsive.
What can he do by rushing to the Heavenly Continent so urgently?
It seems he can't do anything, and if he really causes trouble, he will have to face the pursuit of countless Heavenly Immortal and Golden Immortal experts, and if the other party is serious, there might even be stronger Imperial Physician Immortals coming out to make trouble. At that time, besides fleeing everywhere, what else can he do?
"Haste makes waste. Is it really necessary to cultivate to a sufficiently powerful level before going up?" Xu Que's thoughts were a little shaken.
He felt that he must be more stable, otherwise, rushing up rashly might really turn into throwing himself into the net. After all, that world of the Heavenly Continent is completely different from the world he was in before. There are many strong people there, and the Space-Breaking Talismans and even Immortal-grade Space-Breaking Talismans he relied on before will be greatly reduced in practicality, and it will be difficult to do whatever he wants like before!
"Eh, kid, why did you stop? Are you being lazy?" At this moment, Er Gouzi saw Xu Que standing in a daze, and immediately followed suit to be lazy, and also took the opportunity to attack.
Mo Junchen heard the movement and couldn't help but look at Xu Que, and then stopped and stood in place.
He saw hesitation and delay in Xu Que's expression.
"You say, is it really necessary for me to go up so early?" Xu Que looked at the few people present, but this was obviously asking Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude, because only these two knew him well.
"This Divine Venerable thinks... no need!"
"Uh, I, the old man, am calm now and think it seems unnecessary."
Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude both shook their heads. These few months they had been probing Xu Que through sound transmission, just wanting Xu Que to understand the true strength of the Heavenly Continent. To put it bluntly, they both wanted to retreat first, and then persuade Xu Que to retreat.
Mo Junchen didn't speak, but looked at Xu Que calmly, waiting indifferently.
He understood that Xu Que was not the kind of person who would listen to other people's choices. Some people will listen to suggestions but will not be swayed by others. Xu Que is this kind of person.
Is it necessary to go to the Heavenly Continent so quickly?
Mo Junchen knew very well that Xu Que had the answer in his heart long ago, but he was a little shaken now, but the result... he felt that it basically wouldn't change!
A ruthless person who could be so cruel to himself in the Pluto Realm and would do anything to achieve his goal and seize the Pluto Overlord Body, how could he retreat at this time?
Clearly, Mo Junchen was the one who saw through it most thoroughly among the people present.
Xu Que only hesitated for less than a moment, then raised his right leg, condensed Dao Rhyme, and kicked fiercely onto the lake surface.
Bang!
The already broken lake surface was instantly shattered into dense cracks.
