"Looks like I'm not too late," the boundless supreme expert remarked with a smile, glancing at the ongoing battlefield.
"No, you're just in time! Quick, reinforce Heng Guang Supreme Powerhouse!" Tian Wen Supreme Powerhouse urged immediately.
In truth, no prompting was needed. Having already sensed Heng Guang Supreme Powerhouse's precarious situation, the boundless supreme expert had already intervened.
Even as he entered the fray, he couldn't resist a playful jab: "Hahaha, Heng Guang, how did you get yourself into such a mess?"
With a thought, a Grand Dao Power capable of freezing the Void descended.
Sensing the oppressive force emanating from this supreme expert, even Li Chunjun, who was currently comprehending the Flowing Light Dao and several other great daos, couldn't help but glance sideways at the boundless supreme expert.
His mind swiftly conjured the supreme expert's vital information:
Boundless!
Guild Master of the Explorers Guild!
Ranked among the top four of the nine great ultimate powerhouses!
The "top four" ranking was used because Panwu Ultimate, who possessed the sources of the Source, Slaughter, and Destruction Daos, was undeniably the Human Race's foremost supreme powerhouse.
Apart from him, Boundless, Shouxu, and Truth of the cosmic bank each controlled the sources of two great daos.
Compared to the other Ultimate Powerhouses, the Boundless Supreme Powerhouse controlled two great daos: Dream and Void.
He currently resided at the Source of the great dao of the void, possessing the deepest understanding among all those who had achieved dao unification with the Void Dao.
The moment this supreme powerhouse appeared, Li Chunjun's attention immediately shifted to him.
As the first great dao he had encountered, if the great dao of the soul—crucial for resurrecting the dead—ranked first among the Sources he most desired to claim, the great dao of the void would undoubtedly rank second.
"Be careful," Heng Guang Supreme Powerhouse warned, his expression grave. "This progenitor divine being is unlike any we've faced before. His growth rate is terrifying. Having mastered the Great Unification realm, he now only needs to convert that mastery into true power!"
Heng Guang ignored the Boundless Supreme Powerhouse's jest, his tone hardening. "He'll learn from every clash with us, adapting his application of the great daos. When we engage him, we must either hold back completely or strike with full force, crushing him without giving him a moment to breathe!"
"Using us as sparring partners?"
The boundless supreme expert observed Heng Guang Supreme Powerhouse's condition and, recalling the Starry Sky Group's devastating losses—several Dao Venerables missing—his expression turned grave.
He suddenly struck out, aiming at the space where Li Chunjun resided, even forcefully gripping the Great World Li Chunjun had transformed into.
The Void trembled violently.
The Great World Power, derived from Li Chunjun's forty-nine great daos, seemed to have its very foundation of existence stripped away. Shaking violently, it threatened to collapse and shatter like a castle in the air.
Li Chunjun swiftly mobilized his understanding of Void Power, using it as a foundation to support the Great World's existence.
Simultaneously, as his Void Power expanded, he rapidly adapted to the stripping away of the great dao of the void and the manner in which it was being done.
However, when the boundless supreme expert pressed down again with his void hand, Li Chunjun's own great dao of the void was significantly suppressed.
In the end, the Great World, composed of the power of forty-nine great daos, completely lost its foundation of existence and collapsed with a thunderous roar.
Realizing he couldn't maintain the vast world power, Li Chunjun abruptly shifted from offense to defense. He swiftly retracted all his Void Power, concentrating it within the Void realm, and collided head-on with the boundless supreme expert's great dao of the void.
"Is that all you've got?"
The boundless supreme expert pointed a void hand at Li Chunjun. As Void Power restrained Li Chunjun for a split second, the Dream Great Dao, carrying countless phantoms, surged toward his position.
However, the Dream Great Dao was inherently countered by the great dao of the soul.
While Li Chunjun's mastery of the great dao of the soul didn't reach the Source-level realm of Supreme Powerhouse Gui Ling, it was undoubtedly among the highest echelons.
Combined with his heightened vigilance and shift from offense to defense, the Dream Great Dao's power utterly failed to disrupt Li Chunjun's perception.
His entire focus remained locked on the boundless supreme expert's great dao of the void.
As one of the daos he had deeply comprehended, Li Chunjun's great dao of the void couldn't directly confront the boundless supreme expert's. Yet, even for this supreme powerhouse, completely erasing Li Chunjun's Void Power would require considerable time.
The two great daos of the void clashed relentlessly in the Void, their surging energies transforming this region of the starry sky into a chaotic void, even verging on nothingness.
"This won't do! You're too slow!"
Heng Guang Supreme Powerhouse, observing the boundless supreme expert's apparent advantage but realizing it would still take considerable time to completely eliminate Li Chunjun, immediately declared, "Everyone, attack together!"
At his command, the Supreme Sovereigns and Dao Venerables of the Starry Sky Group, who deeply understood the terrifying power of Li Chunjun, immediately unleashed their full strength. However, the elite Explorers Guild members who had arrived with the boundless supreme expert exchanged uneasy glances.
"Though I hold the advantage, even a lion hunts a rabbit with its full might. Attack!" the boundless supreme expert ordered without hesitation.
Receiving the command, the others no longer hesitated. One by one, they channeled their Grand Dao Power, weaving it into a unified force.
The overwhelming might of the Grand Dao manifested, resembling an unprecedented cosmic calamity.
Before such a cataclysm, not even a Great World could withstand the combined assault of over thirty types of Grand Dao Power. The resulting devastation would pulverize everything, potentially even shattering the great dao light net itself.
Yet despite this terrifying concentration of power, Li Chunjun's expression remained unchanged.
A swirling aura of Void Power surrounded him, within which pulsed the Dao Rhythm of forty-nine great daos.
Though these Grand Dao Powers didn't erupt outward to form a colossal world phantom that would crush all attacks, they instead created a bizarre spatial anomaly. Any assault that entered this space vanished without a trace, swallowed by the void.
No!
It wasn't vanishing.
Rather, the collision of two Grand Daos had directly neutralized and annihilated both forces.
At first glance, it appeared as though all attacks simply vanished upon entering Li Chunjun's vicinity, unable to affect him in the slightest.
This sight made the boundless supreme expert's pupils contract.
"The great unification realm!"
The Heng Guang Supreme Powerhouse said gravely, "He has mastered an increasing number of Grand Daos. So many, in fact, that ordinary Grand Dao Power is no longer capable of harming him."
The boundless supreme expert understood his meaning.
If the forty-nine great daos were likened to forty-nine special attack attributes, Li Chunjun had undoubtedly maximized his resistance to all of them.
If an ordinary Dao Venerable's Grand Dao Power was rated at 100 attack points, his resistance was at least 99 points, possibly even 100.
In this state, he was immune to such common attacks.
Only a few Supreme Sovereigns with profound mastery of the Grand Daos, possessing attack power of 110 or 120 points, could inflict minor damage on Li Chunjun.
And the only ones truly capable of inflicting significant harm were the Ultimate Powerhouses who controlled the Source.
Their attack power, reaching 150 or 200, posed a threat to Li Chunjun a hundred times greater than that of ordinary Dao Venerables.
"Therefore, in this battle, the only ones who can truly make a difference are the Reserve-Tier Supreme Powerhouses who have claimed the source of a great dao, and the few of us who are true Ultimate Powerhouses. The remaining Supreme Sovereigns can only provide auxiliary support."
Tian Wen transmitted his Heart-Mind at the opportune moment.
He addressed the boundless supreme expert: "Li Chunjun has already deciphered nearly all of Heng Guang's Flowing Light Dao. You alone, with the Supreme Sovereigns you've brought, cannot kill him. Instead, you'll only allow him to learn your mastery of the great dao of the void. Withdraw now, confine him, and wait for the others to arrive."
After a brief pause to sense the situation, he continued, "Gui Ling, Lawful Decree, Panwu, and I have already regrouped. We'll reach this starry sky within three hours at the latest! In other words, you only need to stall him for three more hours."
"Three hours? No problem," the boundless supreme expert replied with unwavering confidence.
If he hadn't been concerned about Li Chunjun unraveling the operational principles of his great dao of the void, he could have easily suppressed and beaten the progenitor divine being for three hours straight. Now that he only needed to stall for three hours, it was an even simpler task.
At that moment, the Ultimate Powerhouse's Void Power shifted dramatically, its intensity plummeting to merely Supreme-level.
This sight...
caused Li Chunjun, who was currently comprehending the Void Mysteries, to frown deeply.
He glanced at the boundless supreme expert, who had restrained his power, and quickly realized the tactical adjustment.
"Underestimated, am I?" he murmured.
However...
Relying on his great unification realm and the Grand Dao Power leveraged by over a dozen Immortal Artifacts, Li Chunjun had already reached his limit in his normal state, managing to fight two Ultimate Powerhouses and dozens of Supreme Sovereigns and Dao Venerables simultaneously.
In fact...
To some extent, he was even at a disadvantage against the combined might of two Ultimate Powerhouses and dozens of Supreme Sovereigns and Dao Venerables.
Yet...
This didn't mean he would abandon his pursuit of comprehending the great dao of the void.
"Since you find my current strength insufficient, since you believe I no longer pose a threat, and since you dare to hold back against me..."
Li Chunjun flipped his hand, revealing the Source of Time. "Then let's raise the stakes."
In the next instant, an even denser Dao Rhythm of Time radiated from his body.
The sudden appearance of this scene caused Tian Wen's pupils to contract sharply. "The Source of Time?!"
Because Li Chunjun had been continuously using time acceleration to speed up his thinking and comprehend the profound mysteries of the Flowing Light Dao and the great dao of the void, the fluctuations of his great dao of time had never ceased. This led Tian Wen to mistakenly believe that he had already activated the Source of Time.
Now, seeing him retrieve it again...
"Boundless! Heng Guang! Be careful!" Tian Wen Supreme Powerhouse roared. "He's entered the Second-Tier!"
No warning was needed. Boundless Supreme Expert immediately sensed a terrifying corrosive power rapidly spreading through his great dao of the void, moving with such speed that he struggled to defend against it.
Previously, Li Chunjun had only used the void great dao to supplement his Grand Dao Power. His primary attack method had still relied on the forty-nine great daos, driven by his great unification realm. Moreover, due to a scarcity of Immortal Artifacts, over thirty of these great daos had been unable to unleash their full potential.
But now...
The main offensive force was no longer the forty-nine great daos, but Void Power itself!
The Void Power that stood in opposition to existence!
