This energy was lethal to all non-Dao beings, but due to the high concentration, it was also dangerous for Dao Lords. The power of Dao was so immense that a majority of Dao Lords could not control it effectively and efficiently. That didn't mean they couldn't use it.

An immature realm absolutely could not sustain damage from this leaked Dao energy, or radiation as Dao Lords simply referred to it.
