At that moment, hearing Elder Harold Hong say this, Ryan Ling was caught off guard and quickly asked, "Skycrest Peak? What's Skycrest Peak?"
Ryan had been in the Immortal Domain World for days and learned a lot, but he still didn’t know everything. Right then, Jade Xuan chimed in: "Skycrest Peak is the highest mountain in the Immortal Domain World. It’s insanely tall—rumor says heaven is only three feet three away from its top. Tons of top dogs have tried to climb it, claiming you’ll get blessed by immortals and your power will skyrocket like crazy. The speed of that power-up is literally unimaginable. But so far, in the whole world, fewer than five people have ever made it to the summit!"
After Jade Xuan finished, Elder Harold Hong added, "That Drake Long from Nine-Dragon Gate supposedly climbed it—otherwise he’d never have become a Profound Immortal. Right now, if we want to deal with him, our only shot is Skycrest Peak. Ryan, with your current strength, I think you can make it!"
Elder Harold Hong looked at Ryan Ling—clearly, aside from Ryan, there really wasn’t anyone else left among the battered Ruins Sect survivors.
"Alright, I'll give Skycrest Peak a shot!" Ryan didn’t hesitate. Given the current mess, this was obviously his most dangerous moment since arriving in the Immortal Domain World. Facing a Profound Immortal’s rampage, he had no way out. Still, one thing kept him chill—top-tier beings like that can’t just cross realms and slaughter folks in Immortal Domain City. Even Heavenly Immortals can’t interfere with lower-level people, let alone anyone from Earth!
So right now, all he had to worry about was his own survival.
At this point, his strength had already shot up to late-stage Heavenly Immortal. The power spike lately had him pretty satisfied—he was a legit Heavenly Immortal now, and his immortal qi was super pure. Heck, if he wanted, he could probably ascend to the Immortal World right this second!
Once you hit Heavenly Immortal, you’ve earned that right!
But most Heavenly Immortals don’t want to go to the Immortal World. Sure, that realm makes you a top-tier badass here in the Immortal Domain World, but once you’re up there, you’re basically bottom of the barrel. That’s why most folks keep grinding in the Immortal Domain World, hoping to at least break through to the god-tier and only then consider ascending. Of course, if you reach Profound Immortal, that’s even better—like Drake Long, if he ascends, he’ll never end up as some low-level slave, he’ll be rolling in it!
And if you somehow reach Golden Immortal? Then you’re even more of a big shot in the Immortal World!
