Guarding the River of Time
Chapter 583 - 573: His Legendary Feats! Challenging Everyone Alone!
Wu Di is one of the few unparalleled powerhouses coming from the Chaos Realm.
At that time, Elder Bai Mei was deeply impressed by him, for he was the only body cultivator!
He possessed no spiritual power at all, didn’t cultivate "qi" in the slightest, relying entirely on the ultimate power of sanctified flesh!
He was also the strongest body cultivator Elder Bai Mei had ever seen, unmatched and unrivaled!
To cultivate a body to such a degree was unprecedented and never to be seen again.
At that time, in the World of Ten Thousand Mines, all of the Ten Great Sacred Spirit Realms retreated hastily, leaving in the World of Ten Thousand Mines only five people from the Chaos Realm, no, it should be six, as Elder Bai Mei was present as a spectator.
To this day, the scene of Wu Di single-handedly challenging the other four often still flashes in Elder Bai Mei’s mind.
He still remembers an artifact named the "Primordial Dao Stone" was unveiled at that time.
Wu Di seized the "Primordial Dao Stone" first, attracting attacks from the other four. Facing such a lethal predicament, he physically carved a bloody path and fought endurance battles with them for hundreds of years without a conclusive result. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
In the end, with limitless physical endurance, he utterly exhausted the four, causing them to abandon any thoughts of seizing the "Primordial Dao Stone" from Wu Di.
One might wonder, among all the heavens and myriad realms, how many people could fiercely withstand four top-tier Chaos Realm powerhouses, battling for hundreds of years, becoming only fiercer, and refusing to fall behind?
The key point is, Wu Di is purely a body cultivator, refusing to cultivate qi, meaning he couldn’t restore spiritual power like others by constantly consuming elixir pills. His restoration relied entirely on his physical body’s ability, demonstrating the extent his body reached.
For beings of their caliber, it’s exceedingly difficult to be killed, unless by overwhelming force obliterating all means of survival; otherwise, it’s merely a contest to distinguish victory or defeat, rather than life or death.
If I can’t defeat you, can’t I simply escape?
At such a level, who doesn’t possess countless life-saving tricks?
Elder Bai Mei was a rather dull person, typically uninterested, yet he watched Wu Di and the others fight for hundreds of years!
The more he watched, the more he admired this body cultivator named "Wu Di," who made Elder Bai Mei understand what the pinnacle of body cultivation meant, attaining sanctification through the body, punching stars into tremors, kicking the Star Sea, truly invincible!
Later, when another Supreme Treasure no weaker than the "Primordial Dao Stone" emerged, the remaining four ceased assaulting Wu Di, turning instead to compete for the other Supreme Treasure.
Yet, a dramatic scene unfolded; this second Supreme Treasure was again first seized by Wu Di.
A moment ago, Wu Di was seated, recovering; the next, he burst toward the Supreme Treasure, swiftly snatching it with a wave.
The key was, after seizing the second Supreme Treasure, Wu Di neither ran nor left but stored the treasure away, standing before the four with an expression of "I’m ready for the second round."
At that moment, a Chaos Realm powerhouse had their mental fortress collapse on the spot, commencing another round of enduring carousel battle.
Facing this intense assault, Wu Di’s tactic was not direct confrontation, but dragging it out, denying them the chance to gang up, focusing mainly on lasting endurance battles, competing with them in endurance.
In this manner, after a few more decades, he mentally shattered the remaining top Chaos Realm powerhouses.
The final result was predictably inconclusive once again.
Both successive Supreme Treasures were seized by Wu Di alone, and crucially, there was nothing they could do about him!
As a perfect analogy, Wu Di was like a physical assassin maxed out in defense: hardy and resilient, able to resist, able to fight, lacking only in variety, but with hardly any other weaknesses.
Others possessed numerous tricks and secret cards but were helpless against Wu Di.
Wu Di didn’t cultivate any flashy stuff aside from the body. When one path of cultivation reaches its zenith, that is the true way to invincibility!
.....
Subsequently, several Supreme Treasures emerged, yet Wu Di made no move, merely watching aside.
Elder Bai Mei thought Wu Di knew when to hold back, avoiding going to extremes, lest he incite public anger and face difficulties in subsequent escape.
Later on, three Supreme Treasures emerged simultaneously, and Wu Di seized them all in one go, kicking off the third round of even fiercer carousel battles.
Only then did Elder Bai Mei realize, it wasn’t Wu Di exercising control when he stopped, it’s that the earlier treasures simply didn’t catch his eye; anything he needed or appreciated, he would leave none behind, sparing no room.
Later, five more powerhouses joined the fray, some from the Chaos Realm, some were ancient monsters hidden within the Ten Thousand Realms, alive for countless eons.
Among them were two ancient monsters known to Elder Bai Mei, whom he presumed dead long ago, astonished to find them alive, blown forward by great fortune’s emergence.
.....
Ten top powerhouses of the All Heavens engaged in a three-millennia-long struggle in the World of Ten Thousand Mines.
For beings of their rank, once a battle commenced, it could last millennia or tens of millennia.
Throughout those millennia, Elder Bai Mei secretly observed without participating.
Within that duration, a hundred Supreme Treasures emerged, of which Wu Di alone seized fifty.
The remaining nine divided the rest fifty, leaving Elder Bai Mei in disbelief.
Relatively speaking, throughout those millennia, Wu Di continuously, every single moment, fought, frequently one versus several.
From that moment onward, Wu Di left an indelible impression in Elder Bai Mei’s heart.
This war concluded with the emergence of one final, crowning Supreme Treasure.
When the final Supreme Treasure emerged, the sound of nine Celestial Chimes echoed throughout every corner of the Ten Thousand Realms.
The treasure, to this day, remains a mystery, with Elder Bai Mei witnessing it enveloped in layer upon layer of Light of Chaos.
The moment the Supreme Treasure emerged.
Wu Di merely glanced at it, perceived something, then departing without any intention to compete.
....
The remaining nine displayed expressions of madness, sensing that the treasure could help them break through shackles and advance a step further.
At that moment, even Elder Bai Mei himself was tempted, nearly ready to join the fray to seize it.
Just as the nine, including Elder Bai Mei, prepared to tussle for it.
An overwhelming pressure, of the utmost strength, instantly enveloped the entire World of Ten Thousand Mines, descending upon all present.
Under such pressure, they were all fixed in place, unable to move.
Elder Bai Mei slowly lifted his head, staring intently into the void.
