Chapter 532: Immortal Realm Sword Dao, the Shadow of the Ultimate Sword
Before this stone wall, there were many prayer mats, where many swordsmen were sitting and contemplating.
These swordsmen either carried swords on their backs or stuck their swords upside down on the ground beside them. Their swords were also strange and varied; there were broadswords, thin swords, curved swords, etc. Some had no sheaths and were wrapped in cloth on their backs, while others had sheaths inlaid with pearls and jade, extremely gorgeous.
The sword is like the person. Li Hao scanned them, and his gaze fell on the stone wall, and his eyes suddenly narrowed.
He saw that this stone wall was as smooth as jade, and there was a crescent-like sword shadow inside.
That sword shadow was tilted, like moonlight shining down, just happened to be frozen in the stone wall by some power.
Li Hao could tell at a glance that this was the shadow left behind just after someone swung a sword and the sword light was swung out.
In his mind, the standing posture of the person who swung the sword seemed to emerge, as well as the relaxed and smiling demeanor.
Just as he touched the charm of the sword swinger, he suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart, as if he were about to touch something extremely dangerous, and a series of warning signs emerged.
Li Hao felt a chill in his heart and quickly retracted his thoughts, focusing only on the sword shadow.
His sword technique had already entered the Dao, and among the swordsmen of the Myriad Heavens, he belonged to the peak; even the Master Jian Sheng was only at the level of sword technique entering the Dao, and had never transcended.
At this moment, staring at the sword shadow, he soon saw some clues.
This sword shadow contained a mysterious and indescribable aura, as if it were not as simple as the Dao, natural and perfect, as if it had been in the stone wall since birth, nurtured by heaven and earth, rather than unleashed by human power.
The sword technique went straight to the depths of the Great Dao, the root of the Sword Dao.
Li Hao's eyes were dazed, and he had a feeling of being enlightened but not quite.
At this time, a panel prompt jumped out before his eyes.
"Learned the basics, do you want to record it?"
At this time, the panel prompt suddenly emerged.
Li Hao's eyes brightened slightly; it could indeed be recorded.
Contemplating the Sage Dao and the Final Realm, the panel could not help, but observing sword techniques, as long as he understood the basics, he could record them.
"Record!"
As Li Hao confirmed, a new sword technique suddenly emerged in the panel.
【Immortal Dao Sword Technique: Nine Abysses Great Dream Sword · Immortal Pointing the Way (Intent)】
As the sword technique attribute appeared, bursts of information poured into Li Hao's sea of consciousness. Although it was not vast, it seemed like an ethereal divine shadow was practicing in his mind, teaching a certain sword intent.
At the same time, Li Hao also knew the three levels higher than True State and Extraordinary: Technique.
Intent, Extreme, Source!
At this time, with Li Hao's Ninth-Stage Sword Dao level, he could only barely understand the "Intent" of this sword technique.
What surprised Li Hao the most was the grade of this sword technique, which was actually an Immortal Dao sword technique! Did the legendary immortals and gods really exist?
Li Hao couldn't help but think of the stars painted in the high sky; those were mostly the work of immortals.
He stood still, quietly digesting and absorbing the insights from this panel.
The Da Da Huang Tian Saint and Feng Feng Bo Ping, who were about to walk forward, noticed Li Hao's abnormality and stopped. When they saw Li Hao's eyes closed at some point, isolating all external interference, with Dao rhyme surrounding his body, actually contemplating, they looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
The sword shadow of this Moon-Gazing Cliff was famous in the Myriad Heavens; after all, it was a peerless sword technique that even the Master Jian Sheng could not contemplate, and it was also verified together with many other abnormal things that immortals and gods existed.
However, Li Hao had just arrived, and he actually had insights into the peerless sword shadow within this stone wall?
The Da Da Huang Tian Saint was somewhat stunned; she had seen countless monsters, but she had never seen one so exaggerated. She couldn't help but look at Feng Feng Bo Ping, her eyes as if saying, what kind of monster did you meet in that human world?
Feng Feng Bo Ping saw the Da Da Huang Tian Saint's eyes and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't expect Li Hao to be so exaggerated either. No wonder he could leave his name on the Supreme Heavenly Monument.
Get used to it... Feng Feng Bo Ping gave the Da Da Huang Tian Saint a look, then looked around, guarding Li Hao to avoid others disturbing him.
After absorbing the many messages in the panel, Li Hao slowly opened his eyes. The peerless sword technique also emerged in his heart at this moment. The exquisiteness and brilliance of this sword, Li Hao had only seen in his life, and it seemed to have a feeling of being the peak of the Sword Dao.
To contemplate this sword, besides the Sword Dao, one must also understand that immortal intent.
Immortal intent is hard to find, immortal intent is hard to understand.
Li Hao's eyes flickered slightly. This sword was just a casual move, but it covered many sword Dao changes he knew, close to the extreme! He looked at the stone wall again, but saw that the sword shadow on it was slowly fading. As the sword shadow faded, a shadow seemed to vaguely emerge behind the sword shadow.
That shadow was like an ancient and upright figure, looking toward Li Hao's side, as if giving a light "huh."
This sound could not be heard by outsiders and appeared directly in Li Hao's mind. His mind vibrated slightly, and then he heard a light laugh. The voice seemed to say something, but it was not clear, as if it were an illusion in a trance.
When Li Hao came back to his senses, bursts of exclamations sounded from outside the stone wall.
"Where is the sword shadow?!"
"The sword shadow is fading, it's about to disappear!"
"What's the situation, what's going on?!"
The many figures contemplating before the stone wall were all shocked and voiced their disbelief.
The Da Da Huang Tian Saint and Feng Feng Bo Ping also noticed that the sword shadow within the stone wall was gradually fading and soon had no trace.
And without that sword shadow, the stone wall actually cracked slightly and was no longer crystal clear.
Bang! In just a few breaths, the cracks on the stone wall expanded rapidly, then suddenly burst, turning into crushed stones, rolling on the ground, actually turning into quicksand-like powder.
Such a shocking change made everyone contemplating before the stone wall stunned.
The sword shadow disappeared, the stone wall also shattered, and it was not shattered into stones, but powder.
This stone wall, which had stood for countless years, seemed to be maintained by that sword shadow. Now that the sword shadow had disappeared, the wind and frost erosion on the stone wall crushed it in an instant.
Feng Feng Bo Ping and the Da Da Huang Tian Saint looked at each other and couldn't help but look at Li Hao.
Undoubtedly, this strange thing must have something to do with Li Hao.
"Go."
Feng Feng Bo Ping didn't say much and quickly took Li Hao away.
Not long after they left, powerful figures arrived at Moon-Gazing Cliff to investigate the situation.
The news here spread, and the entire Lanxiang Realm was alarmed. Sages within the Holy Land also came forward to calculate the cause.
There were many eyewitnesses, and the Immortal Shadow Stone Wall contained sword shadow power, which was difficult to destroy easily. After the Sages took action to calculate, they gave the reason.
Someone had contemplated the peerless sword shadow, causing the sword rhyme to transfer and dissipate.
This news was made public, and swordsmen all over the world were alarmed.
The sword shadow of Moon-Gazing Cliff had actually been contemplated by someone!
This news spread rapidly, and the first to get the news was the Canglan Realm, the Sword Ancestor Holy Land.
Learning that the sword shadow had been contemplated, the Master Jian Sheng sitting in the courtyard was slightly stunned, then closed his eyes. After a moment, he opened them again, and the shock in his eyes became solemn.
Every hundred years, he would go to Moon-Gazing Cliff to contemplate that sword shadow, but for many years, he had never been able to touch it.
He felt very clearly that the sword shadow seemed to be on another level. If it could be contemplated, it would surely make him transcend and have hope of crossing to an unimaginable level.
At that time, he could sacrifice his sword to become a Sage again, and his strength would surge.
But now, this sword shadow had actually been contemplated by someone and had disappeared since then.
Furthermore, the Master Jian Sheng reviewed the profound sword shadow in his mind, but found that it was also gradually becoming blurred, and he actually had a feeling of gradually forgetting it.
He was already a Sage and could be said to have a photographic memory, but at this moment, in his own memory, he could not recall it clearly! Every time he recalled it, it would fade a lot until it became blurred.
Such a change made the Master Jian Sheng feel a bit of horror in his heart. Such a method, such a sword technique, the level of the sword technique itself was unimaginable!
It was as if this was not something that could remain in heaven and earth. Once it broke free, no one would know, and no one could restrain it! But now, this sword shadow, this power, had been contemplated by someone else.
After years of contemplation and cultivation, at this moment, in the Master Jian Sheng's heart, a trace of jealousy couldn't help but vaguely emerge, but it was quickly wiped away.
"Could it be him?"
The Master Jian Sheng's eyes flickered slightly, and suddenly his figure flickered and disappeared from the courtyard.
When he appeared again, he was on the Sword Cliff in front of the Sword Tower.
Here, the Sword Master sat, but was not fishing, just looking at the endless waterfall, as if feeling the splashing form of the water in the waterfall.
"Senior Brother, is it you?"
The Master Jian Sheng appeared behind him and said in a low voice.
The Sword Master withdrew his gaze from the waterfall, didn't look back when he heard this, and said: "Is it about Moon-Gazing Cliff? That sword shadow doesn't fit my Sword Dao."
The Master Jian Sheng was silent. He knew that the peerless sword shadow, besides contemplating the mysteries of the Sword Dao, the most difficult obstacle was the mysterious intent contained in the sword shadow.
Only by fitting in with its intent could one cross this obstacle and contemplate the sword shadow.
But they all had their own Sword Dao and sword intent, and wanting to fit in with that intent was extremely difficult.
That intent was ethereal and extremely difficult to pursue and capture.
"There are ten thousand swordsmen in the world, there will always be someone destined. No matter who it is, I think it won't be long before you and I will know."
The Sword Master said calmly.
The Master Jian Sheng heard this, was silent for a while, his figure disappeared from then on, and he returned to his courtyard.
The Sword Master was right; no matter who contemplated it, they would soon become famous all over the world.
When the Master Jian Sheng returned to the courtyard, two figures came in a hurry, exactly Bian Ruxue and the Haoyue Holy Son.
They were both direct disciples of the Master Jian Sheng. At this moment, the Haoyue Holy Son hurriedly asked: "Master, the sword shadow of Moon-Gazing Cliff has been contemplated by someone. Is it you, Master?"
The Master Jian Sheng looked at his disciple, heard this, and a feeling of discomfort emerged in his heart, saying:
"Master has not been to that Moon-Gazing Cliff for a long time."
The Haoyue Holy Son was stunned, then said: "Could it be Sword Master Senior Brother?"
"It's not him either."
The Master Jian Sheng shook his head.
The Haoyue Holy Son and Bian Ruxue looked at each other, their faces changed. Two Sword Dao Sages had not contemplated it, so who could it be? A figure flashed across their hearts, but they quickly shook their heads and denied it.
It couldn't be him. No matter how monstrous he was, he was only in the Dao Law Realm. Sages couldn't contemplate it, so how could he, a mere Dao Law Realm, contemplate it? "Could it be a Sword Dao Sage from another Holy Land..."
The Haoyue Holy Son's eyes flickered slightly. Although the Sword Ancestor Holy Land was the Holy Land for swordsmen in the world, not all swordsmen were apprenticed here. There were still many swordsman experts outside, coming from other Holy Lands.
"That sword shadow looks simple, but it actually contains supreme mysteries. Someone could actually understand it..."
Bian Ruxue muttered to herself. She and Senior Brother Haoyue Holy Son had been taken to contemplate it, but there was no result. It was like looking at a bright moon; although it could be viewed, it could not be touched, as if it were out of reach.
The Master Jian Sheng was also in a bad mood at this moment. This sword shadow being contemplated by someone was also a huge loss for him. He didn't think that after being contemplated, the sword shadow would disappear, and even in his memory, it would fade. He said calmly: "Haoyue, the Supreme Heaven's Pride Battle is about to start. You and your Junior Sister should spar more. Now your Junior Sister's sword technique has entered the Dao, and her strength is not necessarily inferior to yours. It's a pity that she missed this quota and cannot participate in the battle. It just so happens that she can be your sparring partner." The Haoyue Holy Son came back to his senses and lowered his head to promise.
"There is no need to consider the matter of the sword shadow anymore. You will encounter it naturally in the future."
The Master Jian Sheng said, not wanting him to be distracted.
The Haoyue Holy Son nodded, looked at Bian Ruxue beside him. Since Bian Ruxue's sword technique entered the Dao, her strength was even three points stronger than his, but he had the Sun and Moon Divine Eyes, born with divine eyes.
"Junior Sister, let's go."
The Haoyue Holy Son said.
Bian Ruxue nodded slightly. Previously, her strength was vastly different from Senior Brother Haoyue Holy Son's, but now that she had attained enlightenment, she had caught up, and she could also use the other party's hand to temper her own Sword Dao.
That ultimate sword, she felt she was getting closer and closer...
It seemed she would see it soon!
While the Sword Ancestor Holy Land and swordsmen all over the world were in an uproar, other Holy Lands also learned of this news, but they were only relatively surprised and didn't have too deep a feeling.
And Li Hao, under the leadership of Feng Feng Bo Ping, had returned to the Daotian Holy Land, without encountering any attacks from the Buddhist sect on the way.
After returning safely to the Holy Land, the Da Da Huang Tian Saint looked deeply at Li Hao, invited Li Hao again to sit in the Da Da Huang Tian Holy Land when he had time, and then left.
After she left, a smile appeared on Feng Feng Bo Ping's face, and he sighed with relief, saying:
"This time, we didn't encounter any risks. That Buddhist sect and the Void Saint didn't notice our tracks, thanks to the Da Da Huang Tian Saint deceiving the secrets of heaven, making them unable to calculate and notice."
Li Hao heard this and was stunned, only then realizing that this trip was safe, and it turned out that the Da Da Huang Tian Saint had contributed in the dark.
"You kid, you made a big commotion again this time. Sure enough, no matter where you are, you can't cover your light."
Feng Feng Bo Ping said to Li Hao with a light laugh.
Li Hao smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that after he contemplated it, the stone wall would collapse and the sword shadow would disappear.
He wanted to secretly record and contemplate it, leave quietly, and nothing would have happened.
Who knew...
"Old Man Feng, my strength has improved recently, and I want to practice. Can you spare some time to spar with me?"
Li Hao looked at Old Man Feng. That "Immortal Pointing the Way" sword was peerless in style, and he had an urge to unleash it.
Feng Feng Bo Ping heard Li Hao say this and also laughed, knowing that Li Hao had just understood such a peerless sword move and must be itching to try it. He said with a smile:
"Of course I have time. You kid, now except for Sages, others really can't be your opponents."
Half-Sages were suppressed by Li Hao's Dao Domain. Now, beneath the Sage, he was almost invincible.
Regarding this, Feng Feng Bo Ping was full of joy; the stronger Li Hao was, the happier he was.
Immediately, the two didn't need to prepare anything, and Feng Feng Bo Ping took Li Hao to a secret place in the Daotian Holy Land.
Then he unleashed Sage Dao power and shrouded the surroundings with a barrier.
After Feng Feng Bo Ping had arranged everything properly, Li Hao didn't be polite and said to Old Man Feng:
"Old Man Feng, please be sure to take it seriously, otherwise I'm afraid I will hurt you."
Hearing Li Hao's solemn words, Feng Feng Bo Ping was slightly stunned and couldn't help but laugh.
Although Li Hao was close to invincible beneath the Sage, even the most monstrous Half-Sage was just a slap away in front of a Sage. The gap in this Dao realm was really too big to be made up by the previous realms.
However, the sword shadow of Moon-Gazing Cliff was famous, and Feng Feng Bo Ping didn't underestimate it, nodding:
"I will, you just go ahead and attack."
Li Hao saw this, took out the pitch-black "Gongming" from the heaven and earth space, his eyes became deep, and his whole body revealed an aura of wanting to transcend the world.
It seemed to be an ancient immortal and god aura.
Immediately, Li Hao didn't hold back, unleashing all his Extreme Realms.
From Divine Power to the Four Standing Realms, one Extreme Realm after another emerged. At the same time, he also stepped into the state of Immortal Transformation, and the Eternal Dao Domain was revealed.
Seeing the momentum Li Hao revealed, shock and solemnity appeared in Feng Feng Bo Ping's eyes.
At this moment, Li Hao's hair was silver-white, sword Qi was born in the Eternal Dao Domain, and the momentum was terrifying, making it impossible to underestimate.
Even as a Sage, he vaguely felt Li Hao's terribleness. If he were in the Dao Law Realm, he suspected he might not be Li Hao's match for one move! "It seems you are indeed invincible beneath the Sage."
Feng Feng Bo Ping sighed softly, but his eyes were full of praise and a bit of excitement.
"Old Man Feng, I'm coming."
Li Hao said solemnly.
He raised the sword in his hand, the Dao Domain shrouded it, adding momentum to it. Then, that peerless sword was suddenly reflected.
It seemed like a shocking electric light flashed. His silver hair danced, like a banished immortal descending to the world, and that sword was like his casual slash, pointing forward.
In an instant, as the sword light pointed, Feng Feng Bo Ping's face changed, as if he felt his heart palpitate suddenly. At this moment, the extremity of that sword actually made him feel unable to block it.
He quickly unleashed his Sage Dao, wanting to steal and transform this sword, stealing its power.
This was his attack method.
But the next moment, he found he encountered an obstacle, his Sage Dao extended out, but was cut off by that sword light!
Immortal intent cannot be stolen; he could not steal it and could only watch his Sage Dao being pierced, and the sword power suppressing him.
Bang! Divine light suddenly shot out from Feng Feng Bo Ping's eyes, and he swung his palms one after another.
As a Thief Sage, his palm technique could be called the peak. At this moment, terrifying palm prints were superimposed and shrouded, but they all dissipated.
Suddenly, a muffled sound rang out, Feng Feng Bo Ping retreated slightly, looked down at his palm, and actually had a hole poked through it.
His face couldn't help but change, and he looked at Li Hao in shock.
Li Hao also withdrew his sword at this time, his face slightly pale. This sword just now actually emptied all his Qi power.
Although he didn't use Qi meridians, Li Hao had deeply understood the power of this sword.
Moreover, this first sword was his test, and he hadn't truly exploded with full strength, worrying that Old Man Feng would be careless and get hurt.
He had such concerns because he himself knew how terrifying this sword was.
Seeing the hole in Old Man Feng's palm, which hadn't healed for a long time, Li Hao's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly rushed over: "Old Man Feng, are you okay?"
"No harm."
Feng Feng Bo Ping waved his hand, the hole in his palm was healing slowly, he raised his hand to wipe it, suppressing the power remaining on it, and the speed of his palm healing suddenly accelerated.
"Actually able to hurt me, is this the sword technique in that stone wall? Actually able to cut off the Sage Dao..."
Feng Feng Bo Ping looked at Li Hao, his eyes carrying appreciation and complexity, "You already have the power to hurt a Sage."
Although he hadn't used his true power, it was enough to see how terrifying Li Hao was now.
The Sage's strongest reliance was their own Sage Dao, but that sword could cut off the Sage Dao.
Li Hao also realized that his strength at this moment was stronger than he imagined, and moreover, he hadn't used the power of the Second Final Realm.
This Second Final Realm, Li Hao called it the Myriad Heavens Star Meridian.
Using the Myriad Heavens stars as meridians, once unleashed, the Qi power in the body would quickly fill up, and the power would surge to an incredible degree.
Now, this Second Final Realm had not been condensed to the extreme.
The power gathered by the Heaven and Earth Meridian was only barely enough for the consumption of this sword. Without the Second Final Realm, every time Li Hao swung a sword, he would need a few breaths of weak adjustment. This was a situation in life-and-death combat where either the enemy died or he died.
If he could kill the enemy with one sword, it would be fine; otherwise, a few breaths of weakness would be enough to let him die hundreds of times.
"Beneath the Sage, in the Myriad Heavens, I can't think of anyone who can be your opponent. This Supreme Heaven's Pride Battle first place, it must be you!"
Feng Feng Bo Ping's expression suddenly became solemn, saying: "We must participate in this contest. If that Buddhist sect and the Void Saint want to make trouble, I and the Da Da Huang Tian Saint will solve it. You just need to participate in the contest with peace of mind. Once you take the first place and get the incense to become a Sage, you won't be afraid of anyone!"
Even if he had just become a Sage, Li Hao would have some self-protection power, and combined with his and the Da Da Huang Tian Saint's cover, he wouldn't be so easy to die.
Li Hao heard this but was slightly silent. He knew that Old Man Feng had to bear great pressure for this.
If he missed this incense, relying solely on his own incense absorption speed, it would take one or two hundred years.
If he walked the path of sacrificing the Dao to become a Sage, it would depend on luck, but with the red Dao sound little bell, perhaps it wouldn't take much time.
Thinking of that Dao sound little bell, Li Hao's eyes gradually brightened.
This little bell could still vibrate. If he could contemplate the Painting Dao before the contest, reach the Tenth Stage, and sacrifice the Dao to become a Sage, then he would never have to worry again.
Thinking of this, Li Hao nodded to Old Man Feng, said he was going into seclusion to cultivate, and hurried back to the courtyard.
After returning to the courtyard, Li Hao began to stimulate the Dao sound little bell.
As the little bell vibrated, bursts of spiritual light thoughts suddenly surged and gathered.
Li Hao entered an epiphany-like state again.
He focused his thoughts on the Painting Dao, and many insights poured in, and his understanding of the Painting Dao continued to deepen.
However, after this collision, the color of the Dao sound little bell became much thinner.
Time passed.
The matter of Moon-Gazing Cliff shocked the Thirty-Three Realms, but after a few days, it gradually stopped. Only those swordsmen were still discussing it, while other Holy Lands were discussing the upcoming Supreme Heaven's Pride Battle.
This battle gathered the monsters of the Myriad Heavens, and all Holy Lands had people participating in the battle, making their final sprint in seclusion.
"I heard that someone left their name in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield. I went to see it, and that person is called Hao Tian!"
"What a big name, actually daring to call himself that!"
"The Heavenly Monument can detect the origin. Is this person surnamed Hao? There has never been such a surname. Could he be the first person with this surname?"
"Mostly an orphan. The origin detected by the Heavenly Monument comes from the heart. Whatever name he thinks he has in his heart, he will leave that name."
"I heard that Hao Tian took the first place in the quota battle in the Canglan Realm and defeated a monster in the Six Extreme Realms."
"..., such a guy might even take the top ten in the Myriad Heavens. A small world actually produced two such monsters?"
Many Holy Lands were discussing, the Supreme Heaven's Pride Battle was coming, and there was a feeling of a storm coming.
