Han Li paused briefly before continuing his climb.
With each step up the great Dao’s stairs, an additional Dao force appeared above him, intent on suppressing him.
From the eighty-thousandth to the ninety-thousandth step, every type of Dao force reached the eighth level of the Immortal Monarch Realm.
From the ninety-thousandth to the hundred-thousandth step, every type of Dao force reached the ninth level of the Immortal Monarch Realm.
The Dao forces that pressed down on him from above were becoming more numerous and more powerful, yet the pressure Han Li felt was not increasing but, paradoxically, becoming lighter.
Originally, his normal combat ability was invincible at the Quasi Immortal Monarch level.
To withstand the suppression of tens of thousands of Immortal Monarchs’ Dao, he had to activate his Divine Sense to fight against it.
But Divine Sense had a time limit.
Even with consecutive activations, it was only temporary.
If he couldn’t reach the summit in one go, then there was no hope of doing so.
This was equivalent to facing ten thousand Golden Immortals and ninety thousand Immortal Monarchs.
Although these hundred thousand Golden Immortals and Immortal Monarchs did not actively kill, their combined suppression was overwhelming.
Anyone insufficiently strong would be shattered to pieces in an instant.
Han Li started climbing quickly because he wanted to reach the summit before his Divine Sense expired, and he was fully confident he could do it.
However, after crossing the sixty-thousandth step, Han Li suddenly changed his mind and slowed his ascent.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t bear the pressure; he had another plan in mind.
He found that Dadao Mountain suited him all too well, something he hadn’t noticed in his haste to ascend.
First, it was the Immortal Flower and Wandao Ocean in the second stage of the trial, brimming with the myriads of Daos.
Although at a lower level, they were good supplements for Han Li’s ultimate martial Dao.
After absorbing the boundless Dao rhymes from the blooming Immortal Flower and the infinite Dao images from the Wandao Ocean, his inner Thousand Path Tree grew rapidly.
His Thousand Path Scripture and Thousand Path Immortal Body also evolved in succession, rising to higher levels.
If not for the Dadao Palace suppressing his cultivation level to prevent it from surpassing the True Immortal Peak, Han Li felt that without the System’s help, he could break through to the Golden Immortal Realm, or even the Immortal Monarch Realm, all at once.
The realms were defined by predecessors for the mediocre.
With sufficient talent and profound insight into the Dao, one need not follow the norms.
One could break through to a very high realm in one go, rendering all realm restrictions meaningless.
At this moment, Han Li had this feeling.
Having climbed Dadao Mountain so far, the oppressive force of ten thousand Golden Immortals and Immortal Monarchs’ Daos was gradually being assimilated by Han Li’s ultimate martial Dao and merging into his being, fostering rapid growth of his ultimate martial Dao.
As a result, Han Li no longer needed to activate his Divine Sense.
His strength had thoroughly reached the Immortal Monarch Realm, even touching the domain of a Quasi Immortal King.
Apart from his realm, all other aspects had elevated.
After his strength surged, Han Li found climbing Dadao Mountain increasingly effortless, feeling no pressure at all.
Yet he deliberately slowed down to allow his ultimate martial Dao to continue its growth.
When Han Li stepped onto the ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninetieth stair, the suppressing Dao from above had already reached the peak might of the Immortal Monarch Realm.
Upon reaching the hundred-thousandth stair, the force of the suppressing Dao advanced to the early stage of the Quasi Immortal King.
When Han Li climbed to the one hundred and twenty-nine thousand five hundred and ninety-ninth stair, the force of the suppressing Dao rose to the peak of the Quasi Immortal King.
Han Li glanced at the last step, just one step away from the summit of Dadao Mountain.
The aura emanating from this stair was already of Immortal King might.
This left Han Li somewhat puzzled.
Was the test when the Dadao Palace emerged in previous times really this difficult?
He looked down to see the exceedingly beautiful woman in blue struggling at around the forty-thousandth step of Dadao Mountain, clearly exhausted and weakening.
According to the information shared by Chang Xi, every session had several or a dozen participants reaching the fourth stage of the trials, even though they did not pass.
This still proved their strength.
However, considering the difficulty of this session’s trial, aside from Han Li, other geniuses probably couldn’t even pass half of the third stage.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind.
Without dwelling on them further, Han Li took another step upward.
“Boom~”
The terrifying might of an Immortal King bore down, causing Dadao Mountain itself to rumble.
Those geniuses still climbing were suddenly pressed to the ground, unable to rise.
But the might of the Immortal King came quickly and left just as fast, effortlessly shouldered by Han Li.
Standing at the summit, Han Li savored the feeling for a moment and then shook his head slightly, “The might of an Immortal King, just so-so.”
With a shrug of his shoulders, the twelve thousand nine hundred and sixty kinds of Dao that pressed down exploded deafeningly, their Daoist roars echoing through countless realms, shaking the past, present, and future.
Seizing this moment, his ultimate martial Dao consumed voraciously, swallowing infinite Dao rhymes, boundless Dao images, endless Dao intents, and limitless Dao principles.
In an instant, Han Li’s aura skyrocketed wildly, yet his realm remained at the True Immortal Peak.
After this consummation, his ultimate martial Dao grew once again, reaching an incredibly high level after digestion.
Han Li made an estimate, swallowed hard, and then confirmed his speculation with the System.
His ultimate martial Dao had actually reached the Immortal King level!
That meant, once Han Li returned to the myriad realms, if he wished, he could break through to the Immortal King Realm in an instant.
“Hiss~”
He couldn’t help but inhale sharply, a trace of excitement flickering in his eyes.
His Dao was the ultimate martial Dao, the highest-level Dao, supreme above all others.
This meant that Han Li’s strength far surpassed that of an Immortal King and now rivaled that of a Quasi Immortal Emperor.
