1405 Immortal Qi

"Let me inspect your body for a moment. I need to make sure you're actually fine." Senior Bai said as he placed his palm on Yuan's chest.

Despite Yuan's assertion of well-being, Senior Bai found it hard to accept that a mere Spirit King could withstand his Immortal Qi without incurring significant harm.

However, Senior Bai wasn't looking down on Yuan because of his low cultivation. What he had inadvertently unleashed moments ago was Immortal Qi, a power reserved for those who had transcended the realm of mortals by becoming a Bronze Immortal. It was a power beyond mortal endurance, not meant to be withstood by ordinary beings, regardless of their talents.

The Immortal Qi Senior Bai had unleashed carried enough potency to inflict serious injuries or even death upon a Spirit Sovereign. However, Yuan, a mere peak Spirit King, emerged with nothing more than a bloody nose after facing the brunt of Senior Bai's Immortal Qi. This outcome left Senior Bai utterly confounded, as it defied comprehension.

Not daring to believe what was before his very eyes, Senior Bai inspected Yuan's body again. Sure enough, his internal organs remained unharmed, only slightly stressed because of the immense pressure.

'Unbelievable… even though it was only for a brief moment, he endured my Immortal Qi and came out nearly unscathed. What kind of divine body does he possess?' Senior Bai swallowed nervously as he lowered his hand.

"I am glad that you are unharmed. Once again, I extend my deepest apology for my lack of control just now." Senior Bai said a moment later.

Yuan shook his head and said, "Forget about that, Senior Bai. Can you tell me more about that aura you released instead? I have never experienced anything like that before!"

Senior Bai nodded and explained, "What you experienced just now is called Immortal Qi. It's spiritual energy that is also similar to your Sword Aura, something that can only be comprehended and absorbed by cultivators after they achieve Bronze Immortal."

"Immortal Qi is what differentiates cultivators and immortal cultivators, as it's impossible for a mortal cultivator to defeat someone with Immortal Qi no matter how talented they are, sort of like Enhanced Sword Aura and Sword Aura."
