The most shocked of all was Star Constellation Immortal Venerable.
She had deeply infiltrated the Madness Pit and the Limitless Grand Formation. Through countless rounds of investigation, she had found not the slightest trace of any arrangement for Limitless' rebirth within this Madness Pit.
Great Sun Immortal Venerable had arrived at the same conclusion in his own investigation.
Precisely because of this, the two Venerables had fought so ferociously over it.
Yet the truth unfolded right before their eyes — Limitless Demon Venerable had truly been reborn and revived.
"Could it be that the final Fact Ice sculpture being completed means Limitless Demon Venerable has been reborn and has in one leap achieved true immortality?" Even Fang Yuan was shaken by this.
He could clearly sense that the aura emanating from Limitless Demon Venerable was far more powerful than the other two Venerables.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable and Great Sun Immortal Venerable felt it even more acutely.
Facing Limitless Demon Venerable was like staring up at towering mountain ranges or standing before a vast, rolling ocean.
"This contradicts the historical records. Has Limitless Demon Venerable truly surpassed the level of Venerable and attained immortality?" Golden light blazed in Great Sun Immortal Venerable's eyes.
"His current state is exceedingly strange. The strength of his aura surpasses even what my Master could muster," Star Constellation Immortal Venerable thought with alarm.
Great Sun Immortal Venerable and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable exchanged a glance, then attacked simultaneously, unleashing devastating strikes at Limitless Demon Venerable.
Limitless Demon Venerable smiled faintly. Chains coiled and danced around him, effortlessly dissolving the twin Venerables' attacks into nothingness.
A tremor ran through both their hearts, but their fighting spirit surged rather than diminished. Even fiercer killing moves were unleashed in rapid succession.
Limitless Demon Venerable defended without attacking, and after several rounds, the two Venerables had not managed to so much as scratch a single hair on him.
Limitless let out a soft whistle and brushed both hands lightly. The void itself rippled, forcing Great Sun Immortal Venerable and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable to retreat repeatedly.
Le Terra, Fang Yuan, and the others did not dare remain in place either, fleeing to a safe distance.
In an instant, within a thousand paces of Limitless Demon Venerable, nothing remained — save for two figures: Shi (World) and the Schemer.
Great Sun's expression was grim.
Star Constellation's gaze was deep and profound, stars flickering within as she calculated with all her might.
Limitless Demon Venerable smiled gently. "Fellow Immortal Friends, I have no desire to be your enemy. The fruits of a million years of immortality research have been consolidated within me, but they have yet to be verified."
"How do you intend to verify it?" Great Sun Immortal Venerable asked.
"Please, observe." Limitless Demon Venerable turned slightly to one side.
Every Immortal present widened their eyes.
Where Limitless Demon Venerable had been standing, a small breach was now visible.
Through the breach, the Gu Immortals could see — Chaos!
To call it black would be inaccurate. To call it white would be just as wrong.
To call it light, it was light. To call it darkness, it was darkness as well.
Every word in the mortal world fell short in describing it.
Because Chaos was simply Chaos.
Chaos was a great catastrophe!
"You madman! Have you shattered the World Wall again? Are you not afraid of destroying this entire world?!" Great Sun Immortal Venerable roared in fury.
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable also spoke up, her voice solemn beyond measure. "Fellow Immortal Limitless, I understand your ambition, but if you insist on this reckless path with the intent to destroy the Five Regions and Two Heavens, then even if I must sacrifice my life and bring the Heavenly Court down with me, I will destroy you!"
"Please, both of you, calm yourselves. The breach is small. I merely wish to test the fruits of immortality. We Venerables, even though we are unmatched beneath heaven, are still plagued by tribulations — namely, this Chaos."
"Which among the Venerables present has not been injured by Chaos? Who among us has not suffered torment because of it?"
"The Madness Pit has been maintained for a million years. Whether the fruits of immortality derived from it have succeeded — there is one clearest standard."
With those words, Limitless Demon Venerable slowly extended his arm and reached it into the breach.
The other Venerables and all the Gu Immortals present subconsciously held their breath, staring intently.
Limitless Demon Venerable did not activate any killing move. He used only his own body for this experiment.
He was truly audacious beyond measure!
Great Sun Immortal Venerable and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable would never dare do such a thing.
Although they could withstand the Chaos for a time, that was only when devoting their full power to defense.
If someone like Limitless Demon Venerable, with not a single defensive measure in place, were to merely graze even a speck of Chaos, they would be utterly annihilated — unless they severed the affected limb in time.
Limitless Demon Venerable simply and calmly extended his arm in. After a while, he withdrew it.
His arm had turned completely black, resembling charcoal left after a tree had burned away.
But when he clenched his fist, the "charcoal" on the surface instantly crumbled into ash and dissipated entirely, revealing a slightly smaller arm beneath.
Great Sun Immortal Venerable's jaw dropped, his expression one of utter stupefaction. "Could this be the realm of true immortality?!"
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable let out a long sigh. "I understand now. I understand why my calculations failed. When you first created the Madness Pit, you had been using the Chaos beyond the world all along. You madman!"
In the past, Stealing Heaven Demon Venerable had nearly destroyed the world precisely because he had created a breach that was too large.
And at the deepest layer of the Limitless Madness Grand Formation was a small hole punched straight through the World Wall.
