Chapter 477
Seeing that the Sword Master had also come, all the disciples present were surprised.
The Sword Master was extremely mysterious and lived in the Sword Tower all year round. Most disciples had no chance to see him when they went to the Sword Tower to choose secret manuals; they only heard his name, but very few had seen his appearance.
At this moment, the Sword Master's words were clear and indifferent, but each word was like a water droplet hitting a stone, echoing in everyone's ears.
"28 years old?"
"A disciple under the Supreme Sage?!"
After hearing the Sword Master's words clearly, the original noisy arguments fell into silence again.
The disciples under the stage were all stunned, doubting they had heard wrong. That young man on the stage was actually only 28 years old?!
Having practiced for less than 30 years, his swordsmanship actually surpassed Saint Son Yuwen Haoyue's, and he defeated him with swordsmanship alone without showing any extreme realms.
What kind of monster is this?! Bian Bian Ruxue, Qiu Qiu Wuhen, and others were also stunned. Qiu Qiu Wuhen's eyes widened slightly. Seeing this fishing buddy who usually fished with him was actually a peerless swordsman was enough to surprise him, but the opponent's age was actually younger than his? How could this be possible!
He often met Li Hao while fishing. He couldn't think of any other possibility for such swordsmanship at such an age other than day and night of bitter practice.
But the opponent seemed very leisurely.
"28 years old, isn't that just one year older than Saint Daughter Xue'er?"
"But his swordsmanship has entered the Dao. It is extremely difficult to practice to the Wen Dao Realm at 28, let alone comprehend such swordsmanship at the same time."
"Even if it's a Dao heart and Dao body that can easily have sudden enlightenment, it shouldn't be this fast, right?"
Many Saint Sons and Saint Daughters revealed shock in their eyes. With such swordsmanship, they could accept it if he had practiced for over a hundred years, but having practiced for only 28 years, this was a bit exaggerated.
Bian Bian Ruxue was also stunned. Except for her childhood, this was the first time she had seen a monster of similar age to her, yet the opponent's strength had thrown her far behind. She asked herself that she couldn't block that sword strike at all; that was a sword strike approaching the ultimate she was pursuing in her heart.
On the high platform, several Half-Saint Elders were moved. The Sword Master's words could not be wrong; he must have used the Mirror of Reflection to measure the opponent. It was just that Li Hao's age truly made them feel surprised and unexpected.
Master Xue Jian Sheng glanced at the Sword Master, hearing the meaning in his words.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing contemplation. It wouldn't be bad to form a good relationship.
It was just that such a monstrous guy was actually ambushed by a Sage and drifted here. The situation inside was afraid to be a bit complicated.
"Since he is a disciple under the Supreme Sage, the sparring between the two of you today will stop at a point. If you are still interested in the future, you can resolve it at the Supreme Genius Battle, where you can both go all out."
Master Xue Jian Sheng spoke, defining the clash between Saint Son Yuwen Haoyue and Li Hao just now as sparring. This was also to save the reputation of the Sword Ancestor Holy Land; otherwise, if Yuwen Haoyue went all out but was easily defeated by Li Hao, it would make many disciples of the Sword Ancestor Holy Land feel despair.
Hearing his Master's words, Saint Son Yuwen Haoyue's lost face woke up, and a complex look flashed in his eyes.
How could he not know his Master's thoughts, but he felt aggrieved in his heart at this moment.
If Li Hao were several hundred years old, it wouldn't matter if he lost; anyway, when he was several hundred years old, he would definitely not be comparable to today.
But in this battle, he almost went all out, yet he still lost, lost thoroughly, and the opponent's age was younger than his own.
He had actually fallen to the point where his Master had to lie for him, which made him feel ashamed and uncomfortable in his heart.
Li Hao heard Master Xue Jian Sheng's meaning and naturally wouldn't go to expose it, otherwise it would be too much of a slap in the face.
After all, this was someone else's territory, and he had to bow his head.
Beside him, Lin Lin Qingying was somewhat dazed. She didn't expect that the person she had picked up unintentionally was a disciple of the Supreme Sage. Was this like picking up a piece of junk and finding it was a piece of gold? At this moment, with Master Xue Jian Sheng's words, this farce was declared to be over.
The disciples all woke up, with different expressions.
No one knew whether Saint Son Yuwen Haoyue had used his full strength, but his Heaven-Earth Dharma Form was revealed for the first time, at least showing a great part of his power, yet he still lost, which was enough to see Li Hao's terror.
Such a person would definitely shine brightly in the future.
On the floating seats, alchemists like Lin Lin Shanhai were all boiling over.
"Lin Qingfeng is actually a disciple of the Supreme Sage. How was his skill in refining medicinal materials practiced?"
"Is he a swordsman or an alchemist?"
"Old Lin, didn't you say his ancestors were alchemists? You were so sure about it at the beginning."
Zhao Zhao Yingzhen and others were also frightened by the strength Li Hao displayed, and couldn't help but tease Lin Lin Shanhai at this moment.
Lin Lin Shanhai was speechless. How would he know if he were asked about such things?
But he recalled carefully that he had asked Li Hao several times, and that stinky brat seemed to be smiling without answering, neither answering nor denying.
What a cunning brat!
Lin Lin Shanhai smiled bitterly in his heart. He had lived for more than half his life, yet he was fooled by a stinky brat.
However, seeing Li Hao stand up for Lin Lin Qingying this time, he felt quite moved in his heart.
"Given your age, you will participate in the Supreme Genius Battle, right? I will find you for a battle then!"
Saint Son Yuwen Haoyue looked at Li Hao, his eyes gloomy. He said this to Li Hao via sound transmission. After speaking, he turned and left without looking back. This battle today stimulated him, and he wanted to practice even more crazily, striving to break through in the coming days.
Li Hao heard this but didn't take it to heart. He turned to look at Lin Lin Qingying. He took action in this battle not only because he wanted to vent his anger for Lin Lin Qingying, but mainly to help her reshape her sword intent.
Sparring between disciples is a common occurrence, and losing can only be blamed on inferior skills; there is nothing to be angry about.
It was only because the opponent took advantage of this to maliciously hurt people that he took action in anger.
"Your sword."
Li Hao handed the green blade in his hand back to Lin Lin Qingying and said: "If you want to learn this sword strike, I will paint it for you later."
By now, it was already exposed, so he simply stopped hiding it and said it openly.
Hearing Li Hao's words, Lin Lin Qingying regained her senses, looking at the green blade that had just shown its divine power, and her gaze fell on the young man's cheeks again. She bit her lip slightly and said: "So the excuses you made about my physical posture were all just excuses?"
Li Hao immediately thought of the time he pointed at her arms, waist, and other places and commented on them, and couldn't help but be speechless, laughing dryly: "Not exactly, it was also referenced from the perspective of aesthetics."
Lin Lin Qingying bit her lip and looked at him without speaking, but a woman's eyes seemed to speak, as if saying, do you think I still believe you?
Li Hao coughed lightly and looked at her abdomen. The wound there had healed, but it was only an external wound; the vast Dao power inside could no longer be perceived.
He said in a low voice: "Can your Dao Fetus still heal?"
Mentioning the Dao Fetus, Lin Lin Qingying's eyes dimmed, and she shook her head slightly: "The Dao Fetus is born innately; it cannot be reshaped once destroyed."
Li Hao looked up at the Sword Master in the high sky. The other party had already come to Master Xue Jian Sheng and the Elders. His eyes flickered. If he asked the other party to take action, he didn't know if the other party would be willing, or if he could help Lin Lin Qingying reshape her Dao Fetus.
While Li Hao was thinking, the Sword Master also looked at Li Hao and greeted him: "You two come over."
Li Hao was slightly stunned, feeling that the Sword Master seemed to see through his thoughts. He immediately said to Lin Lin Qingying: "Let's go, let's see if the Sword Master can help."
Mentioning the Sword Master, a glimmer of hope also appeared in Lin Lin Qingying's eyes. She nodded and followed Li Hao to Master Xue Jian Sheng, the Sword Master, and others.
"Greetings to the Sword Master, Master Xue Jian Sheng, and all the Elders."
Li Hao bowed and said.
Lin Lin Qingying also bowed her head in salute.
The Sword Master looked at Lin Lin Qingying, the smile on his face faded, he sighed lightly, looked at Master Xue Jian Sheng, and didn't speak.
Although he didn't watch the battle much, a Sage observes heaven and earth. From just a few clues, he had already deduced the ins and outs of the matter.
Regarding Master Xue Jian Sheng's tacit approval, he had no other thoughts except for sighing.
He knew the other party too well and was not surprised.
"Senior Sword Master, Lin Qingying's Dao Fetus was destroyed. I wonder if you can help reshape it?" Li Hao asked, looking forward with hope.
The Sword Master shook his head slightly and said: "The Dao Fetus is an innate object. Even we cannot help reshape it, unless you can find the Dao Heaven Vine to nourish the Dao. But this object is rare and only exists under a Supreme Sage; it is generally not given to outsiders, even if a Sage's face is not useful."
Li Hao was slightly stunned, and Lin Lin Qingying beside him turned pale.
"Senior, I wonder who that Supreme Sage is?" Li Hao couldn't help but ask again.
The Sword Master heard Li Hao's meaning, obviously unwilling to give up. He was somewhat helpless and said: "He is the Source Sage, one of the earliest Sages in the Land of All Sages. He has preached to thousands, is good at cultivating disciples, and three of his disciples have become Sages. Now he is obsessed with other places and it is very difficult to see him."
Three of his disciples have become Sages?
Shock appeared in Li Hao's eyes. Is this the strength of the Supreme Sage? Lin Lin Qingying tugged at his sleeve and shook her head slightly at him, saying: "Don't bother. It's nothing if I don't have a Dao Fetus; I can still practice."
Li Hao glanced at her, knowing that the hope of finding that Source Sage he had never met to ask for this Dao Heaven Vine was slim. After all, even a Sage's face was useless, let alone him.
"Although the Dao Fetus cannot be reshaped, I have a Dao-condensing technique. Once practiced, it can also condense more Dao power in the body. Although it cannot be compared with the Dao Fetus, it is still slightly stronger than ordinary people."
Master Xue Jian Sheng said to Lin Lin Qingying.
Lin Lin Qingying's eyes dimmed. She had also heard of this kind of technique, but it couldn't be compared with the Dao Fetus.
However, without a Dao Fetus now, she could only settle for the second best.
Li Hao's eyes flickered. He glanced at Lin Lin Qingying's abdomen, which was empty at the moment. But with his current Sword Dao comprehension, it would be good if he could reshape the Dao Fetus. If not, it might be better to leave it empty.
However, he planned to talk to Lin Lin Qingying about this later.
The Sword Master said to Li Hao: "I called you over because they want to understand your thoughts."
Master Xue Jian Sheng's gaze also shifted to Li Hao, staring at him, and said: "Given your age and aptitude, you will participate in this Supreme Genius Battle, right?"
Li Hao had heard Lin Lin Shanhai mention this matter earlier. This was a competition involving many geniuses from the Thirty-Three Realms. The competition in the Sword Ancestor Holy Land was just to select the Holy Land's quota. Reaching the top of the Supreme Genius list of the Thirty-Three Realms would earn incense offerings enough to become a Sage on the spot! Such a great benefit naturally attracted countless people to participate in the competition.
Li Hao had the incense offerings of the Great Yu Divine Dynasty, but he also needed to stay in the Land of All Sages for three hundred years. In the mortal world, it would take about three thousand years to accumulate enough incense offerings to become a Sage.
Although Li Hao could take another path, choosing to sacrifice to the Dao to become a Sage, ever since he had the Great Yu incense offerings, Li Hao wanted to try whether he could walk all three paths.
Now his Tongli Realm had reached the end, and the divine power in his body had turned into pure divine blood. Not only could he sacrifice to the Dao to become a Sage, but he could also take the path Ying Ying Xiaoxiao mentioned—Extreme Dao to become a Sage!
Combining all three paths might be the most complete.
And among these three paths, the incense offering path to become a Sage, which is the easiest for others, is the most troublesome for Li Hao.
After all, incense offerings need to be accumulated bit by bit.
While Extreme Dao to become a Sage is relatively simple; as long as there is disaster, one can transform enough grievances and killings.
"I will participate."
Li Hao replied to Master Xue Jian Sheng.
Master Xue Jian Sheng nodded slightly and said: "If you were not a disciple under the Supreme Sage, I would be willing to take you as a disciple and let you fight on behalf of my Sword Ancestor Holy Land. But since you already have a sect, you cannot fight in the name of my Sword Ancestor Holy Land. If you don't intend to return to your original Holy Land sect, then there is only one other path."
"A rogue cultivator?"
Li Hao asked.
Master Xue Jian Sheng nodded slightly: "That's right. This Supreme Genius Battle has only ten quotas for each realm of the Thirty-Three Realms. That is to say, my Canglan Realm has a total of ten people fighting!"
"Besides the three major Holy Lands, there are dozens of dynasties in the Canglan Realm and those top forces in those dynasties. Some people didn't join the Holy Land, but they are monstrous in talent and will also get the opportunity to fight. But they have to go through heavy promotions, and the difficulty is no less than the Holy Land selection."
Li Hao nodded slightly, having heard Lin Lin Shanhai mention it earlier.
The three major Holy Lands each select ten quotas, plus ten people selected from many dynasty forces, a total of forty people fighting, and finally ten people are decided to fight on behalf of the Canglan Realm.
"Now the selection battle of the Thirty-Three Realms is imminent and will be held in three months. The ten quotas of my Sword Ancestor Holy Land have already been selected. Next, we will compete with the Wen Ancestor Holy Land and the Buddhist Holy Land. If you want to participate, you have to go to a nearby dynasty to fight as soon as possible, qualify for the top ten, and get the qualification to fight." Master Xue Jian Sheng said.
The three major Holy Lands of the Canglan Realm are the Sword Ancestor Holy Land, the Wen Ancestor Holy Land, and the Buddhist Holy Land.
Among them, the Buddhist Holy Land is the head, with the most powerful force.
Li Hao nodded. He had originally planned to take this path.
Among the many forces that came to make friends with his Alchemist Lin Qingfeng identity earlier, some threw olive branches at him, borrowing the names of these forces to participate in the battle and take the top ten.
However, the final decisive battle of this Supreme Genius Battle is a clash under the eyes of the Supreme Sage, and it will also attract the attention of many Sages. By then, the False Sage will likely see it too.
When he reaches that step, he must sacrifice to the Dao to become a Sage in advance.
In this way, even if his identity is exposed, he will not be afraid. If he can take the first place in the Genius Battle, he can also get incense offerings, which is the most ideal situation.
Therefore, his time will be very tight in the coming days.
If he hasn't sacrificed to the Dao to become a Sage before reaching the decisive battle, he can only give up continuing to participate; otherwise, if he is noticed by the False Sage and the other party takes action again, it will only be more vicious.
The previous one was just an incarnation; next time, it might be the main body personally killing him.
Thinking of all this, killing intent surged in Li Hao's heart, but he didn't reveal it, restraining it in the bottom of his heart.
"Although your talent is extremely high and your swordsmanship has entered the Dao, don't underestimate it. This Genius Battle is far more intense than you imagine. My Sword Ancestor Holy Land's participation this time is just to give them an opportunity to exercise. The top ten of the previous Genius Battles are basically Sages reincarnated, and some are Sage bodies reincarnated five or six times, mastering means beyond imagination."
Master Xue Jian Sheng warned Li Hao seriously.
Li Hao's eyes flickered. The other party's implication was that Yuwen Haoyue and his kind were just going to the Genius Battle to mix experience?
Thinking of the other party's strength, Li Hao nodded slightly in his heart. If Yuwen Haoyue and his kind had hope of being promoted to the top ten of the Genius Battle, then he would mix a first place, which should be very easy.
Master Xue Jian Sheng finished speaking and didn't open his mouth again. According to the rules, the competition for the second and third place was about to begin. Lin Lin Qingying's Dao Fetus was destroyed, so she directly chose to admit defeat, and this Sword God Battle also came to an end.
Master Xue Jian Sheng stepped forward and bestowed a country's incense offerings on his disciple, which was the reward for the first place in the Sword God Battle.
But this country's incense offerings were not enough to become a Sage; they could only condense a stick of incense in the body.
Even so, it was already a very great reward, saving more than a hundred years of accumulation.
Besides this, there were other treasures, divine pills, and other rewards.
Lin Lin Qingying also received rewards, but the reward for the third place was much inferior.
The conferment ended, Master Xue Jian Sheng left, and the Sword Master chatted with Li Hao.
"You brat, you are really not afraid of causing trouble. This is my Sword Ancestor Holy Land. You defeated that Yuwen Haoyue so easily in public, this is slapping our faces." The Sword Master sent a sound transmission to Li Hao, laughing and scolding him.
Li Hao saw his appearance but didn't get angry, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Senior is not angry?"
"Losing is losing, inferior skills, what is there to be angry about? He abolished that child's Dao Fetus, borrowed the little girl to cut off his own distracting thoughts, and was defeated by you, which is also cause and effect."
The Sword Master said.
Li Hao smiled bitterly. The other party was open-minded enough about these things.
"Go sit with me when you have time. However, these dynasty forces in the Canglan Realm are already selecting people to fight. You probably don't have much time, so you must get the quota as soon as possible, otherwise you will miss this Supreme Genius Battle." The Sword Master shook his head and said regretfully.
In the short term, it seems this brat can't accompany him to fish.
While the two were talking, on the other side, Lin Lin Qingying quietly watched the young man chatting and laughing with the Sword Master. A trace of envy appeared in her eyes, not envy that Li Hao could get to know the Sword Master, but envy that the other party always had a feeling of being free and easy.
Except for getting angry for her today, she had never seen that young man gloomy.
"Was your Sword Dao guided by him?"
Bian Bian Ruxue stood beside Lin Lin Qingying, her eyes also staring at that figure, and then she withdrew her gaze and said calmly to Lin Lin Qingying: "It is truly a fortunate thing to meet someone who accompanies you to practice sword."
Lin Lin Qingying's eyes flickered slightly, and her heartbeat accelerated a little. Thinking of herself dancing with the sword in the courtyard, and the other party eating tea and chatting in the seat, she didn't feel anything in the past. Except for Sword Dao, she regarded everything else as grass and trees.
But now, those grass and trees seemed to have taken root in her heart.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and then she glanced at the Saint Daughter beside her: "Don't you have anyone to accompany you to practice sword? Your Master is Master Xue Jian Sheng."
A series of thoughts appeared in Bian Bian Ruxue's eyes, but soon she restrained them. Someone accompanied her to practice sword in her childhood, but gradually, the other party didn't keep up.
She tried to look back, but couldn't see anyone.
The great battle ended, the Sword Master chatted with Li Hao and left, and Li Hao followed Lin Lin Qingying back to the Alchemist Courtyard.
Arriving in the courtyard, it was quiet here. Li Hao said to Lin Lin Qingying: "It may not be a bad thing that your Dao Fetus was destroyed."
"?"
Lin Lin Qingying looked at him in confusion.
Li Hao said: "You were originally a Supreme Yin Innate Dao Fetus, which was very compatible with your original sword intent level. But now, if your sword intent can go a step further, you can condense a postnatal Dao Fetus, a Sword Intent Dao Fetus!"
"Sword Intent Dao Fetus?"
Lin Lin Qingying was surprised, having never heard of it.
Li Hao also had a sudden whim, purely obtained from Sword Dao comprehension.
"Softness to the extreme is nothingness!"
"Something from nothing, nothing is invincible!"
Li Hao said: "Once you comprehend 'nothing', you can condense a postnatal Dao Fetus."
"Nothing?"
Lin Lin Qingying was confused, but this word seemed to trigger some inspiration in her mind.
Nothing? Softness to the extreme is nothing.
If it is nothing, then the original Supreme Yin Innate Dao Fetus was actually an obstacle.
Without a Dao Fetus, yet having a Dao Fetus, the missing place is nothing!
Lin Lin Qingying suddenly realized and understood Li Hao's idea. Her eyes widened, looking at Li Hao, shock appearing in her eyes.
How did he come up with such an idea?
If she could truly practice it, her combat power would definitely surpass her previous self by ten or even dozens of times!
Seeing her expression, Li Hao knew she had understood and felt relieved in his heart. If the other party could truly contemplate it thoroughly, she would definitely be reborn and become more powerful.
Lin Lin Shanhai returned later. After parting with those alchemists who came to congratulate him outside the courtyard, he saw Li Hao and Lin Lin Qingying together, but didn't stop them as before, instead smiling all over his face.
He didn't know Lin Lin Qingying's Dao Fetus was destroyed, only that she lost ugly, and Li Hao vented his anger for her.
Lin Lin Qingying and Li Hao also had a tacit understanding and didn't intend to tell him about this, so as not to add a layer of anger, worry in vain, and it didn't make much sense.
Li Hao stayed in the Alchemist Courtyard for another two days, packed his belongings, and came to the Sword Cliff to bid farewell to the Sword Master.
Learning that Li Hao was going to the dynasty to get the quota, the Sword Master didn't keep him, telling Li Hao to go and return quickly, and come to find him if there was a chance in the future.
Li Hao agreed immediately.
After Li Hao left, the Sword Master sighed in front of the Sword Cliff.
He knew that after leaving this trip, it would be a long time before they met again.
The Supreme Genius Battle is not that easy. Li Hao needs to prepare for the battle with all his heart. If he takes the first place in the future, he will be a Sage. By then, it is hard to say whether the other party will still have this indifferent heart.
Becoming a Sage, besides the difference in realm, also has a great influence on the changes in temperament. Often, before and after becoming a Sage, it is like changing a person.
What one sees after becoming a Sage is completely different from what one sees below the Sage level, and some are even subversive. Conversely, the feelings brought by seeing different things will naturally lead to many changes in thoughts.
"You little loaches, I've fished you enough, there's no freshness. For the sake of accompanying me these days, I won't kill you all, just disperse."
The Sword Master sat in front of the Sword Cliff and said softly.
His Dao sound reached the bottom of the cliff, and the many dragon demons swimming in the Dragon Pool were all stunned, looking at the figure on the Sword Cliff in astonishment.
The Sword Master actually wanted to release them? This made them both surprised and happy, but at the same time, they suddenly felt a bit reluctant.
"Sword Master, we are willing to listen to the Dao under your feet."
Ao Ao Jie leaped into the air and said hurriedly to the Sword Master.
The Sword Master laughed dumbly and said: "I am going to find a few old friends to reminisce about the past, I don't have time to accompany you anymore. You silly guys, you are too easy to take the bait. Don't be so stupid outside in the future."
Ao Ao Jie almost vomited blood. Isn't this because you are old and sophisticated? Playing tricks with fishing, who can play better than you.
Complaining in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it at all. He looked eagerly and said: "But we are used to living here."
"Go, go, go, if you talk nonsense again, I will peel your skin and draw your tendons one by one." The Sword Master said angrily.
Ao Ao Jie jumped in fright, didn't dare to say more, and drilled back into the Dragon Pool.
A group of dragon demons whispered to each other for a while, then all leaped into the air and bowed to the Sword Master in the air.
Then they turned into golden lights and flew to the north, south, east, and west outside the Holy Mountain.
"Free!"
"With our cultivation, if we return to our Dragon Clan Holy Land, should we be able to challenge the Saint Son?"
"Challenge? Whoever dares to provoke me, I will eat him!"
"Quick, quick, quick, the Supreme Genius Battle is about to start, the Sword Ancestor Holy Land is selecting the list of fighters, we can't fall behind."
One by one, the dragon demons released themselves in the air. Being caught here by the Sword Master was a disaster for them, but also an opportunity. At least they had gained a lot in the past hundred years, and their cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds.
In the Land of All Sages, demons and humans are not mortal enemies. In the Thirty-Three Realms, some small worlds are full of demons, and humans are the minority, only struggling to survive.
And among the demons, there are also many existences in the Sage Realm. Here, ten thousand races compete. Dragon Clan and Phoenix Clan both have Saint Sons and Saint Daughters. Their age limit for participating in the battle is calculated based on their respective lifespans. Some demons are thousands of years old, but converted to human lifespan, they are only tens of years old.
"The dragon demons under the Sword Cliff..."
Qiu Qiu Wuhen, who was carrying a fishing rod to the Sword Cliff, saw the dragon demons flying up and was slightly stunned.
But soon he understood something. Without the Sword Master's permission, these dragon demons would definitely not dare to leave.
Qiu Qiu Wuhen came to the Sword Cliff and indeed saw that the Sword Master was no longer fishing, but was lost in thought looking at the waterfall in front.
Qiu Qiu Wuhen learned after asking that the Sword Master was going to find an old friend to reminisce.
In addition, he also learned that Li Hao was also leaving the Holy Land to go to the dynasty for selection.
Learning of Li Hao's whereabouts, Qiu Qiu Wuhen's eyes flickered, and he suddenly put away his intention to continue closed-door practice, wanting to go and see the opponent's battle.
In the previous clash with Saint Son Yuwen Haoyue, Li Hao didn't even show his extreme realm. He didn't know what his true strength was.
In the Canglan Realm, there are forty or fifty dynasties, large and small, and hundreds of first-class forces.
If there is no background and no connections, one can participate in the battle even in a small sect, but it requires layer-by-layer screening.
This screening cycle had already been going on long before the Sword God Battle started.
And the major forces in the dynasty skip the previous screening, and selections are also going on within their respective sects, similar to the Holy Land selection. After they are selected, they go to compete with each other.
This competition venue is located on the Sacrifice Dao Mountain of the largest dynasty in the Canglan Realm, the Emperor Canghai Divine Dynasty.
Li Hao obtained the entry quota through the first-class forces he made friends with earlier in his Alchemist Lin Qingfeng identity. After temporarily bidding farewell to Lin Lin Qingying and Lin Lin Shanhai, he took the map of the Emperor Canghai Divine Dynasty and headed to this Sacrifice Dao Mountain.
As he approached, he met many disciples from various sects along the way, rushing to a grand event as if going to a market.
Passing through a forest, Li Hao heard the sound of fighting inside. When his divine sense swept over, he saw seven or eight martial artists in the Three Imperishable Realms being slaughtered by a man in white, who looted their belongings and hurried away.
Where many people gather, there must be quarrels and disasters. Li Hao naturally had no intention of meddling in other people's business.
He intended to leave directly, but saw wisps of black gas floating on the seven or eight corpses.
Li Hao immediately thought of the path of Extreme Dao to become a Sage, transforming killing and resentment.
His heart moved. He teleported here, raised his hand, and his divine blood moved, absorbing those black gases.
As the black gas fell into his hand, it was quickly absorbed into his palm and turned into a slightly solid black gas in his dantian.
Li Hao vaguely felt that there was killing and screaming in these black gases, but with the brilliant light reflected by his divine blood, the resentful thoughts of screaming were wiped away, leaving only purity, which was the intention of killing.
Li Hao felt a bit of realization in his heart.
If incense offerings are the intention of faith, then Extreme Dao is the intention of destruction.
If two diametrically opposed intentions are integrated, and then combined with sacrificing to the Dao to become a Sage, he didn't know what it would become.
Sensing someone approaching, Li Hao didn't stay and quickly teleported away.
After traveling hundreds of miles away, Li Hao maintained his normal speed of flight again.
He felt a bit funny in his heart. He was going to transform those resentful thoughts, but he was a bit sneaky instead. No wonder Ying Ying Xiaoxiao was called the Demon Clan. When disaster strikes, the God Clan goes to transform it. After a long time, it looks like a crow, which was originally auspicious but was regarded as bringing disaster.
Arriving at the Sacrifice Dao Mountain, it was already crowded with people.
Li Hao's divine sense swept over and found the acquaintance he made friends with earlier. The other party was surprised to learn that Li Hao was Alchemist Lin Qingfeng. After seeing the token given earlier, he immediately invited Li Hao to a seat.
The area of the Sacrifice Dao Mountain was extremely large, capable of accommodating a million people, but there was no noise-canceling law here, so the noise was chaotic.
"Alchemist Lin Qingfeng, this is your battle number. The selection of the small sects in front has ended, and now it is the ten-thousand-person selection, selecting the top hundred from ten thousand, and then selecting the top ten for the decisive battle!"
The middle-aged man with a slightly fat figure was an Elder of the Su Zhenyuan Sect, in the Dao Law Realm. He learned from small news about Li Hao's action in the Sword God Battle, and was extremely polite to Li Hao at this moment.
Being an alchemist and a peerless swordsman, and also a disciple under the Supreme Sage, no matter which identity, it was worth the Su Zhenyuan Sect's all-out effort to make friends.
"The ten-thousand-person ranking is already the highest order my Su Zhenyuan Sect can get for direct fighting." Zhao Zhao Xiulin said with a smile.
"Enough, thank you."
Li Hao said: "You can find Master Lin Shanhai for alchemy later."
"Then thank you, Alchemist Lin Qingfeng." Zhao Zhao Xiulin was pleasantly surprised and said hurriedly.
Li Hao took the entry number and waited quietly outside the field. The field was noisy, and there were ten battle stages, all going on at the same time.
And outside the field, besides the disciples of various sects who came to watch and participate, he also saw many figures in brocade and python robes, who were actually members of the royal family of the dynasties who came to the scene in person.
This scene was slightly more chaotic compared to the Holy Land selection, but the battles on the battle stages were more exciting, with all kinds of tricks, some using poison, some using whips, etc.
While Li Hao was sitting and watching and waiting, in another part of the crowd, several elegant figures sat together.
"Li Qingyi, these are all insignificant guys. What's so good about their competition? You are participating personally. If your father knows, he will say you are bullying people."
A young man wearing a white jade hat and shaking a folding fan shook his head, his expression slightly helpless.
The woman beside him looked delicate and cute, but there was a smart light flashing in her eyes, saying: "Senior Brother, don't underestimate these people. Some people just missed the opportunity to join the Holy Land early, but they have great potential and still have amazing talents."
"You just come to see it. You still want to participate. You have already obtained the fighting quota of our Holy Land. If you grab another one here and it gets exposed, I'm afraid these dynasties and forces will be dissatisfied."
The young man shaking the folding fan said with a bitter smile. This was the reason he was worried.
The woman grinned and said: "I'm just playing. I will release water when it reaches the top hundred and lose to the opponent. Anyway, the way I look now is not my original appearance, no one can recognize me."
