Chapter 1622: Chapter 1512: The rivals of the past, now have to look up.

Upon entering the [Great Nirvana World], Cheng Feng’s face was marked with shock.

After all, he’d entered once or twice before, and even then he had realized that Lv Zhong possessed a living spatial magical treasure.

However, at that time, Cheng Feng had not known that the Great Nirvana contained not just countless worlds, but potentially countless universes.

So now, Cheng Feng had the feeling of Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden.

But things were different for Dugu Jinglong. His face was truly one of shock and astonishment, to the point that his newly stabilized Immortal Emperor-level soul cultivation was momentarily shaken.

A cosmic-level space?

He had only stayed in the Hongmeng Dragon Tomb once!

Yet now, the feeling he got from Lv Zhong’s Great Nirvana World seemed to surpass that of the various worlds within the Hongmeng Dragon Pearl.

Those rivals of the past now demanded nothing short of awe.

"Hiss..."

Dugu Jinglong gasped audibly. Only now did he truly understand—Lv Zhong did not just possess extraordinary strength and matchless talent, but his destiny was unparalleled.

While Dugu Jinglong was still reeling from his shock, Cheng Feng cast Lv Zhong a curious glance and asked, "Brother Zhong, is this still the world inside the Plague God Pearl? Why does something feel different? The space inside the Plague God Pearl back then didn’t have Immortal Spirit Qi..."

Instantly, Dugu Jinglong’s ears twitched. Could this space truly have evolved so drastically within such a short time? From his senses alone, the density of Immortal Spirit Qi in the small world they were currently inhabiting wasn’t any less than that of some moderate-grade immortal stars in the Immortal World.

Lv Zhong, unreserved, smiled and explained, "Of course. This is the space of my natal magical treasure. As my cultivation progresses, naturally its spatial level also ascends. Besides, my spatial Saint Mark has already reached the top-grade peak state, no less than Yang Mei the Venerable Sage."

What?

The Saint Mark?

The top-grade peak state Saint Mark?

While Cheng Feng was still uncertain, how could Dugu Jinglong not recognize the implications?

He himself was a top-tier talent from the World of Ancient Heroes and a disciple of Yang Mei Old Ancestor. From what Dugu Jinglong knew, his master Yang Mei Old Ancestor, purely in terms of the Space Dao Saint Mark, was only at the upper-grade-upper-level realm.

Yet Lv Zhong’s spatial Dao Saint Mark had reached the true top-grade peak state?

This was too fantastical, utterly stupefying.

Though part of him wanted to doubt Lv Zhong’s claim, he also knew that Lv Zhong had no reason to conceal such truths.

If Lv Zhong had truly condensed a top-grade peak state spatial Saint Mark, then it wasn’t merely that he was on par with Yang Mei the Venerable Sage. In terms of comprehension of the Space Dao, Lv Zhong might already faintly surpass Yang Mei the Venerable Sage by a margin. His modesty simply underlined the reality.

Even so, Dugu Jinglong’s heart trembled, and he hesitantly asked, "Brother Zhong... Brother Zhong, have you... met my master?"

Lv Zhong was momentarily taken aback, glanced at Dugu Jinglong, and quickly caught on. "Haha, I almost forgot—Brother Dugu is Yang Mei Taoist’s disciple. Haha, what a coincidence. Not long ago, I was at Yang Mei Old Ancestor’s Dao grounds in the World of Ancient Heroes, conversing with him about cultivation. He kindly offered me some Xuanqing Divine Tea. Hmm... Since you’ve advanced to the Immortal Emperor realm and your soul energy is almost at its peak Immortal Emperor state, you could barely manage to sample it. Haha, the tea is quite exceptional..."

This... this was real!

Lv Zhong had truly met Yang Mei Old Ancestor.

Few could even name Xuanqing Divine Tea. Moreover, this Xuanqing Divine Tea—was exclusively Yang Mei the Venerable Sage’s treasure.

Yet previously, Dugu Jinglong had lacked the requisite strength to enjoy such treasures.

Dugu Jinglong, once known as Dugu Qiubai, had previously been revered for his unparalleled talent and solitary invincibility, eventually forming as a concentration of countless wills and being taken into the World of Ancient Heroes by Yang Mei Old Ancestor through great cultivation skills and divine power.

In the minds of mortals in the lower worlds, Dugu Qiubai was the consummate swordsman, an unmatched phenomenon. Yet in the World of Ancient Heroes, he had emerged as a leading figure of the new generation of cultivators.

After being defeated multiple times in this world, he reverted to his given name and resumed cultivating with fervor.

He knew that not only were there endless opponents to ignite his battle spirit within the World of Ancient Heroes, but countless worlds beyond hosted increasingly powerful challengers.

Thus, he had fought and cultivated tirelessly, reaping untold glories.

Yet twice in succession at the Hongmeng Dragon Tomb, he had been overshadowed by Lv Zhong.

This almost shattered his self-confidence.

Fortunately, he was ultimately a supreme talent and took only five years to emerge from Lv Zhong’s shadow, his cultivation advancing rapidly.

But upon his next appearance in the Immortal World, he was horrified to realize that Lv Zhong had already achieved sainthood, leaving him hardly any chance to catch up.

After forming an allegiance with Cheng Feng, Dugu Jinglong learned that Lv Zhong truly was a terrifyingly abnormal existence.

This current encounter with Lv Zhong shook him even deeper.

Even the women around Lv Zhong all seemed to surpass him in realm. The notion was too extraordinary and utterly disheartening.

Now, hearing that Lv Zhong had gained access to Yang Mei the Venerable Sage’s Dao grounds to sit and engage in discourse?

What kind of realm and power had Lv Zhong reached at this point?

Dugu Jinglong knew all too well that, despite his proud disposition keeping his interactions with Yang Mei the Venerable Sage minimal, he was nonetheless his disciple. And he was acutely aware that few had the qualifications to enter Yang Mei the Venerable Sage’s Dao grounds, much less converse with him or be offered Xuanqing Divine Tea.

But Lv Zhong had done so!

Suddenly, Dugu Jinglong felt an impulsive desire to ask Lv Zhong what his exact realm and strength were now.

However, such inquiries were not something he could bring up face-to-face with Lv Zhong.

"It seems I should return to the World of Ancient Heroes as soon as possible to consult with my master; otherwise, I’ll go mad..." he muttered inwardly before steadying his spirit once more.

Dugu Jinglong’s expression turned reverent. Managing an awkward smile, he looked at Lv Zhong and said, "Brother Zhong, you... you’re playing with me. Being someone who converses with my master, how can I continue to call myself your brother? This... this is disrespectful..."

"Haha..." Lv Zhong burst into laughter, lightly patting Dugu Jinglong’s shoulder. "Don’t say that. Calling it ’discourse’ is flattering me. Besides, I’m a disciple of Master Hongjun, and you’re Yang Mei’s disciple. On principle, we’re of the same generation. So, us addressing each other as brothers is perfectly fitting. For that matter, even if I could interact with Yang Mei Taoist as peers, why couldn’t you also interact with me as equals?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Jinglong’s eyes lit up as his overall demeanor softened, shedding the imposing sharpness of his swordsmanship. Clearly, his state of mind had advanced further.

"Impressive!" Lv Zhong gave him a sincere thumbs-up, offering genuine praise to Dugu Jinglong. (To be continued.
