Chapter 460: Ninety-Seven Dao Domains, Is He an Alchemist? (Two-in-One)

~25 min read 4,962 words

Ancestor Yao?

The gazes of Lin Shanhai and others followed, and when they saw the gaze cast by Ancestor Yao, they were stunned, and then looked at Li Hao.

Since when did Li Hao know Ancestor Yao?

Could it be because the ability to purify medicinal herbs was appreciated by Ancestor Yao?

"Then you go quickly, don't keep Ancestor Yao waiting."

Lin Shanhai urged quickly.

Li Hao nodded, flew out from the floating seat, crossed the ten arenas, and landed in front of the three Semi-Sages, including Ancestor Yao.

Besides Lin Qingying and Bian Ruxue, there were two Holy Sons and Holy Daughters. Originally there was another Holy Son, but after watching the match halfway, he left with a look of boredom.

"Junior has met the three seniors."

Li Hao bowed.

Ancestor Yao saw Li Hao's unhurried attitude, standing here without being trembling, and a smile of appreciation appeared in her eyes, saying:

"We just discussed and want to place your painting just now in the Sword Building. What do you think?"

Painting?

Li Hao was a bit surprised, but as a painter, this was undoubtedly a great recognition of his painting, and he smiled:

"Naturally willing."

The three Semi-Sages also expected Li Hao's response. After all, the Sword Building is such an important place, even those who claim to be Painting Sages in the dynasty find it difficult to pass their paintings into the Sword Building.

"Since that's the case, I will pass the order there and let them wait. Will you send it over yourself in a while?" Ancestor Yao asked.

Li Hao's heart moved, and he nodded: "Good."

Originally, he also intended to go to the Sword Building to see it. Although he didn't have the status of a disciple of the Sacred Land, it was still very easy to mix in by asking those alchemists to find a relationship and go through the back door.

Although he had already recorded many cultivation techniques from these inner disciples who were carefully selected from the Sword Building in the preliminary battle today, it was said that the Sword Building had nine levels, each of which collected massive sword Dao cultivation techniques, as well as other unique skills.

If he could spy and record them all, the cultivation techniques he mastered would reach an extremely terrifying degree.

And these cultivation techniques and unique skills accumulated to a sufficient quantity, melting ten thousand laws, reflecting each other, could also allow Li Hao to open up stronger unique skills.

"Ancestor Yao, can I go to the Sword Building to see those cultivation techniques by the way?"

Li Hao asked, which also saved the trouble of asking Lin Shanhai and others to find relationships everywhere. Finding a Semi-Sage was just a matter of one sentence.

Ancestor Yao was surprised when she heard this, saying: "Aren't you an alchemist? There is nothing related to alchemy in the Sword Building."

"I also want to see various sword techniques." Li Hao coughed lightly.

"Are you also thinking of practicing sword Dao after seeing them fight today?"

Beside, the burly middle-aged man Mountain Ancestor frowned and said: "Sword Dao is not child's play. If you want to study it, you must be fully immersed. Since you are an alchemist, just honestly refine your pills, don't be ambitious and waste your qualifications and time!"

Ancestor Yao saw that he spoke strictly, but shook her head slightly, and said to Li Hao:

"Since you are interested, it's okay to go and see. However, Mountain Ancestor is also right. Only by being focused can you prove the Great Dao. How about this, you go to the Sword Building to choose a sword technique you like, and then come to Yaochi Peak to find me. I will personally guide you to practice, and by the way, see your sword Dao qualifications. If the qualifications are mediocre, you can also settle your mind and focus on alchemy."

Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Thank you, Ancestor Yao."

Mountain Ancestor frowned slightly, and seeing Ancestor Yao speak like this, he didn't say anything more.

Beside, Lin Qingying heard Li Hao's words, looked at him, her thoughts floating, and suddenly had a thought: Does he also want to practice sword?

Earlier, Li Hao painted for her and pointed out the flaws in her sword intent from the appearance. She vaguely perceived that perhaps Li Hao also had sword Dao talent, but he didn't practice and show it.

If he really showed sword Dao talent this time and apprenticed to Ancestor Yao, it would also be an excellent thing, and perhaps they could fight side by side in the future...

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look forward to it.

Bian Ruxue on the other side glanced at Li Hao and then withdrew her gaze, not caring.

The other two Holy Sons and Holy Daughters also knew this Alchemist Qingfeng. Earlier, they had sent people to get close to Li Hao. At this moment, seeing that Li Hao actually had the idea of wanting to practice sword, they couldn't help but feel amused in their hearts.

Too young, how can he be like a child, seeing hunting and joy? Wanting to learn whatever he sees is not a good thing.

"This is my hand order. You show this order, and you can go to any level of the Sword Building to choose cultivation techniques, but remember not to break the rules there."

Ancestor Yao said to Li Hao, and at the same time threw him a mysterious purple hand order, with a "Yao" character engraved on it.

The hand order seemed to carry a faint fragrance. Li Hao took it and looked at it, overjoyed, and said quickly: "Thank you, Ancestor Yao."

Being able to choose cultivation techniques in the nine-level Sword Building at will was much stronger than Lin Shanhai and others finding relationships.

Nine-level Sword Building, outer disciples can only enter the first three levels.

Inner disciples can enter the sixth level.

A small number of prodigies, after accumulating a large amount of Sacred Land disciple merit, can enter the later Sword Building to choose cultivation techniques.

And Holy Sons and Holy Daughters, etc., can all enter the nine-level Sword Building.

Now, by virtue of this Semi-Sage hand order, Li Hao also obtained the right to pass through briefly.

Mountain Ancestor glanced at Ancestor Yao, frowned slightly, and was a bit surprised. Ancestor Yao, who had always been cold to men, actually favored this alchemist, which was a rare thing.

Not long after, Ancestor Yao summoned one of her female disciples to lead Li Hao to the Sword Building.

And she also passed the news to the Sword Building through other means.

The Sword Building is on the Sacred Mountain, located in front of the Sword Cliff. This female disciple is a top inner sect prodigy and is already in the Dao Law Realm. Li Hao had also seen her previous competition, and she defended the arena successfully, showing extremely strong power, and also mastered three extreme realms, which could be called stunning.

At this moment, being summoned by her master to lead the way for someone, Jiang Yingyue felt a bit uncomfortable in her heart, but when she learned that Li Hao was Alchemist Qingfeng, her face improved slightly. Although she was still unhappy in her heart, at least she didn't give Li Hao a face on the surface. After all, this is a popular person in the alchemist circle recently.

If Li Hao is offended, it is equivalent to offending most of the alchemist circle, and refining pills will be difficult in the future.

Not long after, Jiang Yingyue drove the flying sword to carry Li Hao to the Sword Building.

The two fell from the flying sword, and Li Hao looked at this Sword Building, immediately feeling like seeing a steep and cold building peak.

Nine-level Sword Building, each level is extremely high, chains are wrapped around the flying corners of the eaves, and the whole Sword Building is like a treasure sword reaching the sky, and the chains wrapped around each building are like restricting its sharpness, covering and imprisoning it.

"This is the Sword Building..."

Li Hao saw it with his own eyes and had a feeling of shock. This is much more magnificent and imposing than the buildings in the mortal world, even the Imperial Palace cannot compare.

Outside the Sword Building, two sword attendants wearing copper masks were already waiting here.

Seeing Li Hao and Jiang Yingyue, they didn't know Li Hao, but they recognized this top inner sect prodigy.

So they soon deduced Li Hao's identity, stepped forward and said: "Is this Alchemist Qingfeng? I heard that Ancestor Yao and other elders decided to place your painting in the Sword Building. Is the scroll brought?"

"Brought."

Li Hao flipped his palm and took out the Sword God Preliminary Battle Map from the heaven and earth space.

Seeing the rolled-up painting scroll in Li Hao's hand, the two sword attendants nodded, and then said: "Follow me, this matter still needs the Sword Master's consent."

"Sword Master?"

Li Hao was puzzled.

The two didn't say much, just glanced at Li Hao, their eyes a bit displeased.

Obviously, they felt offended that Li Hao didn't know the existence of the Sword Master.

"The Sword Master is the second Master Jian Sheng in our Sword Ancestor Sacred Land!"

Jiang Yingyue, who was accompanying, transmitted to Li Hao: "The Sword Master has been guarding the Sword Building all year round. He has the final say here. You must be careful and not offend him."

Her reminder was both out of worry that Li Hao would lose his words and provoke, causing trouble for her master, and also wanting to take the opportunity to make friends with this Alchemist Qingfeng. Although she was a bit annoyed by leading the way, it was also a good opportunity to make friends with this Alchemist Qingfeng.

"Second Master Jian Sheng..."

Li Hao felt a chill in his heart. There are actually two Sword Sages in this Sword Ancestor Sacred Land?

He had always thought that there was only one Sage in the Sacred Land. Now, there is actually a second one?!

Soon, the two sword attendants led Li Hao and Jiang Yingyue along the square steps in front of the Sword Building, came to the Sword Building, then bypassed the Sword Building, and came to the back of the Sword Building. This is the Sword Cliff.

Opposite the Sword Cliff is a snow-white waterfall, flowing down from the towering fault, and the splashing water light falls into the depths of the Sword Cliff. In the depths of the Sword Cliff, one can vaguely hear the sound of water impact, and the bottom seems to be a river.

And on the edge of this Sword Cliff, an old man wearing a bamboo hat was sitting here. Li Hao was surprised to find that the other party was holding a fishing rod, and the line in front of the fishing rod was not energy-condensed fishing line, but a real fishing line, which seemed to be forged from some treasure, sitting in front of this Sword Cliff, fishing in the deep valley inside the cliff.

"Master."

The two sword attendants spoke, but their address made Li Hao stunned. These two are actually disciples of the Sage?

"Ancestor Yao and other elders sent news, intending to place the painting in the hands of this Alchemist Qingfeng in the first level of the Sword Building, so I came to ask for your opinion." One of the male sword attendants said in a low voice.

The back figure didn't react, as if indifferent.

And Li Hao and Jiang Yingyue could only wait quietly for the other party. Jiang Yingyue didn't dare to breathe, lowered her head, and only used her eyes to secretly look at the Sword Master, who was a more noble figure than her master.

Time passed slowly.

The two sword attendants didn't say much, just stood in front with their hands down, and their posture didn't change.

Although it was waiting, Li Hao didn't feel angry or impatient. He could see that the other party was concentrating on fishing, and their arrival was instead a disturbance and offense.

Thinking from another perspective, if he were fishing, he wouldn't like people talking too much beside him.

Li Hao's gaze crossed the other party's back and fell on the fishing rod in his hand, watching the line in front of the rod shaking slightly, which showed that the deep valley under the Sword Cliff had turbulent water flow. Fishing in such rapid water is extremely difficult, extremely challenging, and also tests the control of fishing very much.

If you probe and drive with divine sense, and spy on the situation at the bottom of the water, that's another matter.

oC〇

But that would lose the fun of fishing.

Fishing is fighting with fish with eyes closed, just like people can't see the will of heaven, but fight with heaven and earth, and the fun is endless.

Suddenly, the fishing line paused slightly. Li Hao's eyes brightened slightly, knowing that a fish was coming.

But the fish hadn't bitten the hook yet, so he couldn't move lightly.

At this time, the fishing line relaxed again. Obviously, the thing at the bottom of the water just touched it, and might also be testing.

Need to wait again, wait again... Li Hao stared at the fishing line, and his mind became concentrated.

Time passed slowly, and there was no movement at the bottom of the water. The fishing line was still loose. Did the fish run away?

But Li Hao knew that the more at this moment, the less he could be anxious.

Suddenly, the fishing line paused again, and then slowly tightened.

Don't be anxious!

Li Hao's eyes suddenly condensed. The fish was still testing. This was not a signal to take the hook.

Need to wait again!

Fortunately, the Sword Master didn't lift the rod either. The just-tightened fishing line relaxed slowly, but the next moment it suddenly tightened.

"Lift!"

Li Hao said excitedly uncontrollably.

At the same time, the Sword Master's movement was extremely fast. The moment Li Hao's words just came out, he lifted the fishing rod fiercely. The tightened line was pulled up immediately, and then, the Sword Master's body suddenly swung, as if a force grabbed the fishing line, pulling it directly out of the deep valley of the Sword Cliff.

A huge black shadow suddenly flew out from inside, its body was huge and long, making a miserable roar, with long teeth and five claws, it was actually a dragon clan!

There was a huge iron hook piercing the true dragon's mouth, grabbing its mouth and pulling out blood.

Li Hao was stunned. When he perceived the aura of the true dragon, it was actually a dragon demon in the Hearing Dao True Person Realm!

If this were thrown into the mortal world, it would definitely be considered a Dragon King-level existence!

But at this moment, this dragon demon was pierced and pulled up by the fish hook, roaring. When it saw the appearance of the Sword Master, it was scared soft, wailing:

"Sword Master, spare my life!"

The bamboo hat figure didn't speak, just raised his hand, a vast law power suppressed, and actually refined its huge dragon body into a small goldfish.

As the fishing line was recovered, the goldfish was mentioned in front of him. The goldfish swayed and struggled in front of the fishing line, looking at the Sword Master pitifully.

The Sword Master took it off from the fish hook casually, seemed to chuckle, and said: "Of your seven brothers and sisters, you are the greedy one, it's time to learn a lesson."

While speaking, he threw it back to the bottom of the Sword Cliff, and with the waterfall, it rushed into the Dragon Pool under the Sword Cliff.

After doing this, the Sword Master turned around, revealing a thin and long cheekbone, a face like a sword-cut old face.

His eyes were deep, as if containing the universe, stars, and moon, and in the middle and peaceful, he revealed a sharpness that people dared not look directly at.

His gaze fell on Li Hao, with a trace of surprise, and said: "Little guy, was it you who shouted just now? You also know how to fish?"

Li Hao came back to his senses, a bit embarrassed. He was too immersed just now, which led to him forgetting himself.

"Also occasionally fish." Li Hao said humbly.

A smile appeared on the corner of the Sword Master's mouth. Being able to see the timing accurately was not something that simple fishing could achieve. Obviously, he was also a veteran fisherman.

But Li Hao's appearance was extremely young. People of this age are all working hard to make progress and pursuing martial arts. Where is there this leisure to study other things.

"Just said what painting, let me see."

The Sword Master said.

The two sword attendants wearing masks turned to look at Li Hao.

Jiang Yingyue was also curious to look at Li Hao.

Li Hao didn't delay, raised his hand and waved, and this vast painting scroll of tens of meters unfolded in mid-air.

As the scroll unfolded, the magnificent battle scene of ten arenas, a million disciples watching, and ten thousand prodigies fighting was gradually presented.

The sparring of many sword skills, the hidden appearance of Dao domains, were all depicted by Li Hao.

The expressions on the faces of those disciples could be seen clearly, meticulously, and one could feel the emotions when they were fighting, as well as the high fighting spirit.

Several people saw the scroll and were immediately immersed in it, shocked by the magnificent battle above.

When Jiang Yingyue stood by the arena and watched earlier, she didn't have such a feeling at this moment. Through the scroll, the countless cheers outside the arena seemed to ring in her ears again, as well as the fighting spirit of many disciples competing.

The two sword attendants looked at each other. They saw this scroll and also had a feeling of blood boiling, wishing they could also participate in the competition.

But they didn't go, because their age had already passed.

The prodigy battle is limited to within three hundred years old, and they are all over this age.

The Sword Master watched for a while, and a trace of admiration appeared in his eyes, saying: "The painting Dao is superb, not bad. Such a painting, no wonder that child Yaochi would like it."

He called Ancestor Yao "that child". This made Jiang Yingyue feel ashamed, but thinking of the identity of this Sword Master, her master was indeed only a junior in front of the other party.

"Then go and hang it up."

The Sword Master said, a bit casually.

After speaking, he glanced at Li Hao and said: "Little guy, any interest in also casting a rod, let me see."

Fishing is lonely, and his few disciples are not this material. They can't learn it, and their hearts are always filled with sword Dao. He can't teach them either. It is rare to meet a little guy who is quite good at fishing, and he also gave birth to a trace of love for talent.

Li Hao was stunned. As a fisherman, he soon understood the other party's thoughts. If it were him, if a child understood fishing, he would also be willing to invite the other party to be together. This has nothing to do with his own cultivation and status, it is purely fun.

"Sword Master senior, I want to go to the Sword Building to see the cultivation techniques first, and come back to accompany you later, how about it?"

Li Hao said, not forgetting the business.

"Okay, go."

The Sword Master nodded, then turned around and swung the rod again.

Jiang Yingyue glanced at Li Hao, and a trace of weirdness appeared in her eyes. The Sage invited, Li Hao actually refused. This is a rare opportunity to get close to the Sage.

Those two sword attendants also glanced at Li Hao, their eyes weird, but didn't say anything, leading Li Hao to the Sword Building.

Jiang Yingyue accompanied Li Hao here and originally intended to leave, but thinking that Li Hao would have to accompany the Sword Master to fish later, she could also accompany him on the side. This is a rare opportunity to get close to the Sage, so she said to Li Hao:

"You go busy, I'll wait for you outside, and we'll go back together then."

"This will delay you, Jiang Shijie can go back first." Li Hao said quickly.

Jiang Yingyue felt a trace of annoyance in her heart when she heard this, but on the surface she smiled and said: "The preliminary battle has already ended, I have nothing to do anyway, Master handed you to me, so I naturally have to take you back."

"Then okay, I might watch for a long time."

"It doesn't matter, I'll wait."

Jiang Yingyue said.

"Then it will be hard for Jiang Shijie."

Li Hao said, bowed to her, and then followed the two sword attendants into the Sword Building.

This first level of the Sword Building is vast inside, like a huge library. The bookshelves of cultivation techniques are clean and tidy, divided left and right.

Li Hao swept his gaze and saw the books on the shelves, which were more than the Dao Treasury Hall in the Gan Dao Palace!

And this is only the first floor. The Dao Treasury Hall of the Gan Dao Palace collects all the cultivation techniques in the world, but it is not as good as one of the Sword Building!

Li Hao sighed, followed the two sword attendants to the back of the Sword Building. Here is a conspicuous main hall wall. The two sword attendants took Li Hao's painting, unfolded it, and displayed it on this wall, using laws to imprison it, which could not be touched or damaged.

After the painting was placed, Li Hao took out Ancestor Yao's hand order and showed it to the two, saying:

"I want to see the cultivation techniques here."

The two recognized Ancestor Yao's hand order, looked at each other, and were a bit surprised. They didn't expect that this person was actually so favored by Ancestor Yao.

The man said: "Then you go and choose yourself. The books here are all blocked by laws, and only a small part of the front or the general outline can be seen. You cannot force the destruction of the laws, otherwise you will trigger the Sword Building formation and be killed by ten thousand swords on the spot!"

Li Hao also noticed that the cultivation techniques on these bookshelves were filled with law aura. He nodded, put away the hand order, and after the two sword attendants left, he wandered around the building.

He took out the cultivation techniques and found that only the front could be opened, the back seemed to be sealed, could not be opened, and divine sense could not penetrate.

Fortunately, only a small part of the front is needed, which can allow Li Hao to master the fur and be able to record it.

Li Hao didn't be polite, and quickly flipped through them one by one.

As the panel's prompt sounded constantly, one by one cultivation technique secret manuals were also recorded into the panel by Li Hao.

The cultivation techniques here are mainly sword-based, with a wide variety of sword techniques, countless.

Some sword techniques are even called knife-sword techniques, using knife intent to drive the sword, and others using spear techniques to drive the sword, which can be said to have pushed the sword technique to the peak!

There are many types of alternative sword techniques. Although Li Hao collected various sword techniques, the countless information coming one after another gave Li Hao a feeling of collecting everything.

Just a sword, but it contains countless uses.

Perhaps it was successive recording, the infusion of a large amount of information, which caused a wave of inspiration in Li Hao's thoughts, countless thoughts surged, and he had a trance and illusion, and suddenly had a deep cognition of the sword.

If you treat it as a sword, it is a sword.

If you treat it as a knife, it is a knife.

If you treat it as a gust of wind, it can also be a gust of wind!

What is a sword?

A sword is a sword, a sword can also be more than just a sword, but a sword is still a sword!

Li Hao had a feeling of understanding. The many cultivation techniques surged in, allowing Li Hao's "Only I" sword intent to be constantly refined.

A sword can cut off everything, so one must first identify everything.

Now, Li Hao is walking on this road of identification.

The cultivation techniques of the first level of the Sword Building are at least Supreme Grade.

Spending several hours, Li Hao recorded them all, most of which were sword techniques, which were deduced to the Dao level on the panel.

Li Hao sat in the first level of the Sword Building for three hours, combined with many cultivation techniques, and condensed nine-fold Dao domains.

Afterwards, he went to the second level of the Sword Building.

Here, most of them are unique skills, and a few are exquisite Supreme Grade cultivation techniques.

But the quantity is much less than the first level of the Sword Building, but there are still thousands of volumes.

Li Hao recorded them one by one, and the "Only I" sword intent was greatly improved again.

Others practice cultivation techniques, all by contemplating one by one, spending months, or even years and decades.

But Li Hao practiced thousands of them in one breath, absorbed them at the same time, saving countless time.

His sword intent was constantly condensed, and his understanding of the sword was also deepening.

In the second level of the Sword Building, Li Hao sat for four hours and practiced thirteen-fold Dao domains.

Afterwards, Li Hao got up again and went to the third level of the Sword Building.

By the third level of the Sword Building, the number of cultivation techniques here was even less, but there were still hundreds of volumes, all of which were unique skills.

Li Hao flipped through and recorded them one by one. Time passed. By the time the third level of the Sword Building was all absorbed, the Dao domains condensed by Li Hao improved again, reaching eighty-nine fold!

He has the ten thousand phenomena attribute and the hidden aura of the picture attributes such as Cang Gong and Jiang Xuetu, condensing Dao domains in his body, which did not cause any movement, but Li Hao could feel that his Dao domains were getting stronger and stronger. Even if he is only in the Taiping Dao Realm now, if he has so many Dao domains, he can easily suppress the True Person Realm!

Without relying on Immortal Transformation, the power of the Dao domain alone can fight across borders!

Li Hao didn't stop, and continued to come to the fourth level of the Sword Building.

At the same time, the divine sense thoughts of the two sword attendants outside the Sword Building were also withdrawn from the Sword Building, and they felt a bit bored.

"This alchemist is really greedy."

The two looked at each other and shook their heads slightly.

Li Hao's actions in the Sword Building were all observed by them secretly. He actually flipped through every cultivation technique, which was simply a carpet-style screening!

Obviously, he had Ancestor Yao's hand order. If it were an ordinary person, he would have gone directly to the top of the ninth level of the Sword Building to choose from those top Dao cultivation Sacred Laws.

But this alchemist is good, even the Supreme Grade cultivation techniques of the first level are all looked at one by one, really idle enough.

"Hasn't he come out yet?"

Jiang Yingyue, who was waiting outside, saw the two sword attendants and couldn't help asking.

She had been waiting here for almost a day. Li Hao said he would be very slow, but she didn't expect it to be so slow!

Is this going in to choose cultivation techniques, or sleeping inside?

"If you are in a hurry, you can go back first."

The man said indifferently, naturally not saying that Li Hao was choosing slowly inside, so that they were secretly spying on others.

Jiang Yingyue was speechless with anger. She had promised Li Hao to wait for him together, how could she break her promise.

At this time, a sound of footsteps came, and the Sword Master was seen carrying a fishing rod and walking slowly. When he saw the three people at the door of the Sword Building, he was a bit surprised and said: "What are you all doing here?"

"Waiting for that alchemist to choose cultivation techniques, he has Ancestor Yao's hand order and can choose a cultivation technique to take out."

The female sword attendant said quickly, her voice crisp like an oriole.

The Sword Master was slightly surprised, glanced at the Sword Building, and stood outside the building, through the heavy walls, but his gaze seemed to penetrate everything. Soon, a trace of surprise appeared in the bottom of his eyes:

"Ninety-seven fold Dao domains, you said he is an alchemist?" ===== CHAPTER 461 =====
