Chapter 534: Imperial Dao Ninth Stage, Source Sage

As the Supreme Heaven's Pride Battle approached, in this quiet time before the storm, Li Hao stimulated the Dao sound little bell again and again to contemplate the Painting Dao.

With the fourth vibration, Li Hao's understanding of the Painting Dao had reached the Ninth Stage extreme.

He vaguely touched the transcendence of that final step. From the Ninth Stage to the Tenth Stage, it was from the mortal world to the Sage, having his own Painting Dao.

Li Hao continued the fifth Dao sound little bell vibration, wanting to break through in one fell swoop.

But many spiritual light thoughts gathered, yet they still stopped at the previous thought perception. This final step of the Painting Sage Dao could not be done by spiritual thoughts alone. Although the vibration of the Dao sound little bell seemed like an epiphany, it was not a true epiphany after all.

Li Hao realized that relying solely on this little bell could not make the technique become a Sage in one fell swoop, so he quickly took advantage of the echo of the Dao sound vibration and shifted his thoughts to the Chess Dao.

Chess Dao Eighth Stage, if he could contemplate to the Ninth Stage, his strength would also be greatly improved.

As spiritual thoughts gathered, his understanding of the Chess Dao also deepened rapidly, and many spiritual lights burst forth.

Then Li Hao stimulated the Dao sound little bell for the sixth time. This time, the color of the little bell had become extremely thin, as if it would dissipate at any time.

And the spiritual light brought by the vibration made Li Hao's Chess Dao climb rapidly, vaguely approaching the Ninth Stage.

Li Hao didn't stop, and in one go, he carried out the seventh vibration. This time, the red light completely dissipated, and the Dao sound little bell, after vibrating, slowly dissipated from Li Hao's sea of consciousness.

And the final spiritual light thoughts made Li Hao's Chess Dao break through rapidly, touching the true Dao realm.

Two and a half Dao sound vibrations were equivalent to one epiphany. This Dao sound little bell could vibrate seven times, and when stuck at a bottleneck, it could bring seven great helps.

Li Hao looked at the Chess Dao realm raised to the Ninth Stage and embedded it directly into the Imperial Dao.

In an instant, countless thoughts poured in.

Ninth Stage Imperial Dao, covering all Dao methods and energy control of the Ninth Stage.

At this moment, Li Hao could be considered a true Dao Law Realm, with words following the law, and thoughts creating and destroying! Furthermore, with the Ninth Stage Imperial Dao, reaching the extreme of the Dao Law Realm, plus the insights of the Ninth Stage Physical Body Dao, Li Hao suddenly had a feeling that if the Imperial Dao and the Physical Body Dao could be perfectly combined, perhaps he could touch the extreme of the Wen Dao Realm.

The two realms of Wen Dao, the True Person Realm, integrating the Dao realm into oneself, the Dao power cannot be damaged.

Dao Law Realm, controlling the laws of heaven and earth.

If the two could be combined, integrating laws into oneself, one could be immune to all laws, and the Dao power would not be damaged!

Li Hao's eyes gradually brightened. If this could really be done, then at that time, even if he stood still and didn't make any resistance, other strong people in the Wen Dao Realm would find it difficult to hurt him in the slightest! Clearing his thoughts, Li Hao immediately tried to integrate laws into himself.

But thinking was thinking, and doing it was very difficult. After failing many times, Li Hao suddenly thought of the process of absorbing and refining Extreme Dao power, and with this, spiritual light suddenly sprouted. Extreme Dao power could be refined, so could laws be refined?

He immediately imprinted the laws into his divine blood through the Imperial Dao.

Previously, he had already practiced the Divine Blood Dao Body, and the divine blood contained Dao power, which could be called top-tier in the physical body of the True Person Realm, with the Dao power undamaged. Now, he wove the laws, turning them into tiny forces like needles and threads, traveling into the divine blood, and then slowly refining them.

However, the law power had to be accommodated within the tiny divine blood, and this process was extremely difficult.

Fortunately, Li Hao had the understanding of the Ninth Stage Imperial Dao, and his control over laws had reached the top of the Dao Law Realm. After consuming a lot of mind, he finally imprisoned a law in the divine blood and completely refined it!

From then on, the divine blood contained the power of this law.

If he encountered laws that were equal or repulsive, they would be offset or resisted.

"It really works!"

The first law was successfully refined, and Li Hao's eyes brightened. This path was correct and could be walked! However, this path, like the condensation of Qi meridians, also required time.

This consumption of time could not be avoided. Li Hao only then understood why other people's cultivation was often hundreds of years; some things had to be refined and contemplated, just like building a house, it couldn't be rushed, and if it was rushed, it wouldn't be stacked well and would easily collapse.

Fortunately, the energy in the Holy Land of All Sages was rich, and the laws were dense, so Li Hao's refining speed was not slow. In the following days, he refined laws every day, and his physical body became increasingly powerful and terrifying.

However, there was only a month or so left until the Supreme Heaven's Pride Battle.

Li Hao stayed in the courtyard every day to cultivate. During this time, Lin Baichuan, Chu Hanwei, and others were also making their final sprints, all in seclusion, or using their own methods to relieve their moods, and no one visited each other, fearing to disturb others. As the competition approached, Li Hao had already refined hundreds of laws in his body, and his whole body carried a strange temperament. Just standing there, he seemed to be the center of the surrounding laws.

"It's a pity that this final step of the Painting Dao requires a true epiphany."

Li Hao came out of seclusion, feeling the abundant power in his body, which was much stronger than before, but compared to a Sage, it still couldn't be a qualitative change.

Just the previous Eternal Dao Domain could help him suppress Half-Sages and easily defeat peers, and now with the addition of Qi meridians and the refinement of laws in his body, walking on the path of the Wen Dao Extreme Realm, his strength had surged by a large margin, but the threshold of the Sage was really too high, and the gap was too big.

Previously, when sparring with Old Man Feng, although he injured Old Man Feng, he relied on that peerless sword technique "Immortal Pointing the Way."

His own power was not enough to confront a Sage.

And at that time, Old Man Feng didn't use his true strength. If he encountered that Void Saint and fought him to the death, Li Hao still had no confidence in his heart, but the difference was that this time he had the power to fight back. Although he didn't have the confidence to win, he wouldn't lose so miserably.

In the Wen Dao Realm, being able to reach this level could already be called incredible, but this was not what Li Hao wanted.

"If the Qi meridians and the Wen Dao Extreme Realm were both cultivated to the extreme, perhaps there would be hope for a battle, but there is no time. If there was another year..."

Li Hao frowned. Time was too tight. In the past six months, although his improvement was fast, compared to others, it was already an unimaginable level, but it was still not enough.

"Right now, the fastest path I can take is to sprout the Sage Dao prototype and condense it completely!"

"With the Sage Dao prototype, combined with the power of many Extreme Realms and Immortal Pointing the Way, I should have the strength for a battle!"

Although the Sage Dao prototype was only a prototype and easily defeated by the true Sage Dao, it ultimately belonged to the Sage Dao and had the qualification to sit at the table.

Unlike refining laws and cultivating Qi meridians, the Sage Dao prototype needed to rely on enlightenment. It was not long or short to say, perhaps it would take decades to contemplate, or perhaps an epiphany overnight.

"The Heaven's Pride Battle is coming. Our Small Thousand World is some distance from the Tianyuan Realm, so we need to set off in advance."

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping came to Li Hao's courtyard and notified Li Hao to prepare to set off.

Li Hao was silent. For others, it was to compete with Heaven's Prides, but for him, once this path was taken, he might encounter Sage ambushes. His opponent was a Sage.

Seeing Li Hao not answering, Feng Master Feng Bo Ping seemed to see his worries and said: "You don't need to worry about the Buddhist sect and the Void Saint. Just participate in the Supreme Heaven's Pride Battle. I have arrangements for the rest. You just need to take the first place, and everything will be fine, and there will be unexpected surprises!"

"Unexpected surprises?"

Li Hao couldn't help but look at Old Man Feng.

"That's right. I heard from an old friend that besides the incense reward for the first place this time, there are also three extremely precious heaven and earth treasures, which are important materials for cultivating Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapons!"

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping's eyes flickered with light, saying: "I heard that two of these heaven and earth treasure materials came from the Buddhist sect and the Void Holy Land. They donated them voluntarily to reward the first place in the Supreme Heaven's Pride Battle!"

"The other one seems to be a generous gift from a Supreme Saint, which has nothing to do with us, but you should know the reason for the Buddhist sect and the Void Holy Land's great bleeding this time, right?"

Li Hao's face was slightly cold, "Attracting me there?"

"That's right."

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping sneered: "In this Small Thousand World, within the Daotian Holy Land, it is my territory. Within the Sage's territory, as long as you don't go out, I can always protect you. Even if a Supreme Saint comes in person, I have a way to escape. But if you leave this Small Thousand World and are not in my Sage Domain, then it's hard to say whether it's lucky or unlucky."

"They are afraid that you will retreat and not dare to participate in the contest, so they use this to lure you."

"But they don't know that with your strength, as long as you participate in the contest, you will definitely take the first place. It is impossible for anyone to be your opponent!"

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping knew the abacus of the Buddhist sect and the Void Saint. If they could attract Li Hao to participate in the contest, they would ambush him. As for the lost heaven and earth treasures, they would fall on the first place of another Heaven's Pride Battle. When the time came, they just needed to send people to release the news that the heaven and earth treasures were extra friendly sponsorships, and they could also harvest a favor of sponsorship.

After all, the person who could take the first place in the Myriad Heavens Heaven's Pride Battle could become a Sage on the spot. At least this kindness could be turned into a bridge of friendship. In general, it was definitely not a loss!

Li Hao's eyes revealed murderous intent. To kill him, this Buddhist sect and the Void Holy Land were really willing to take action.

"What you need to do is take the first place!"

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping said: "At that time, not only will you become a Sage, but you will also take their treasures. I really want to see their expressions!"

Li Hao heard this, the murderous intent in his eyes gradually restrained, suppressed in his heart, saying: "They are bleeding so much to attract me there, this trip is afraid to be extremely dangerous."

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping nodded: "That's right. However, I have already called an old friend, plus the Da Da Huang Tian Saint, and there is a way to send you safely to the Tianyuan Realm. As long as you reach the Tianyuan Realm, they won't dare to touch you easily. After all, that is where the Supreme Saint sits, and the laws of the Upper Three Realms are extremely strict. The Law Sage is disciplined and will never tolerate anyone overstepping in the Upper Three Realms!"

"Law Sage..." Li Hao's eyes flickered. The Law Sage is one of the Supreme Sages. The laws of the Divine Dynasty, the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, etc., cannot bypass a "Law" word, which shows the weight of the Law Sage.

Having seen the ugly and false faces of the Void Saint and the Buddha Venerable, Li Hao had no filter for the Supreme Saint. However, he couldn't trust the other party's people, but he could trust the other party's Sage Dao.

Sages will abide by their own Sage Dao; otherwise, if they contradict it, it will only damage themselves.

Even if it looks like a contradiction to outsiders, if the Sage has his own views and understanding, then it is not a contradiction.

Just like the Buddha Venerable feeding the eagle with his flesh is compassion, in the eyes of some people, it is helping the tyrant to do evil and nourishing the wicked, but how to look at it depends entirely on the Buddha Venerable's own heart.

"The Tianyuan Realm has the laws of the Law Sage, and no one is willing to touch them. In addition, I have also found the Mohist Sage of the Tianyuan Realm to escort you. The Mohist family has a Supreme Saint sitting in town. If the Buddhist sect dares to touch the Mohist Sage, they will inevitably anger the Supreme Saint!"

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping said to Li Hao: "In addition, I visited the Source Sage of the Tianyuan Realm. His old man learned of your situation and told me that if you can take the first place, he will naturally protect you, and no one can hurt you in the slightest."

"Source Sage?"

Li Hao was slightly stunned and couldn't help but look at Old Man Feng. He hadn't been in the Holy Land of All Sages for a short time. Except for the ten years of waste in the void, he had been recuperating in the Sword Ancestor Holy Land for nearly two years.

He had heard of the many Supreme Sages in the Holy Land of All Sages. In the Holy Lands of the Upper Three Realms, they were all seated by Supreme Sages! This Source Sage was the oldest Sage in the Holy Land of All Sages!

When the second Sage was born, the Source Sage already existed, walking in the world and teaching the people.

Feng Old Man could visit him and let him take action for himself, obviously, during this time, Feng Old Man had done many things behind his back.

Li Hao was slightly silent and said to Old Man Feng: "I'm afraid I can't repay Old Man Feng's kindness."

"Go, who wants you to repay!"

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping heard Li Hao say this, spat out irritably, then smiled, saying:

"Other people's Heaven's Pride Holy Sons only need to cultivate and participate in the contest with peace of mind, but you have to face Sage ambushes. You have no other reliance in this Holy Land of All Sages, unlike those Heaven's Prides who were born in famous families and apprenticed to Holy Lands since childhood. You rely entirely on yourself. If I don't help you, who can help you."

"Don't consider these messy things. You just need to prepare well for the contest, take the first place for me, and when you become a Sage, we will settle accounts one by one!"

Li Hao took a deep breath. Old Man Feng had done this for him, so he had no reason to retreat.

"I will!"

Li Hao said earnestly.

He didn't have a strong heart to fight for the first place, he just wanted incense, but now, he truly wanted to hold this first place in his hand.

"The Source Sage cherishes talent. If you can take the first place, you will surely be appreciated by him. In the Holy Land of All Sages, many Sages once received the grace and guidance of the Source Sage when they were cultivating. Although they were not apprenticed, they respected him extremely. As long as the Source Sage takes a fancy to you, with one word, no one in the Myriad Heavens will dare to touch you!"

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping said, this was the path he truly paved for Li Hao.

Li Hao heard this, nodded slightly, looked deeply at Old Man Feng, and didn't say anything more.

After finishing talking to Li Hao, Feng Master Feng Bo Ping let Li Hao wait in the courtyard, and then left.

Not long after, Feng Master Feng Bo Ping brought back two figures, who were the Da Da Huang Tian Saint he had seen before, and a Sage wearing a black robe.

Their auras were restrained, but Dao rhyme still surrounded them, looking out of the world, as if standing in the cracks of heaven and earth, untouchable.

"I have other old friends who will follow in the dark. This is the Mohist Sage."

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping introduced to Li Hao via sound transmission.

Li Hao immediately bowed to this black-robed Sage.

The Mohist Sage, named Yuan Zhou, looked at Li Hao slightly, and surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Although Li Hao's aura was not obvious, his whole body seemed to contain restrained law power, which had never been seen in other Dao Law Realms.

"No wonder the Thief Sage strongly recommended him. He really has astonishing talent."

Yuan Zhou smiled and said to Li Hao: "I came here this time, besides the invitation of the Thief Sage, it is also at the request of a fellow sect member. You don't need to worry, I will definitely send you to the Tianyuan Realm."

Hearing his words, not only Li Hao was surprised, but Feng Master Feng Bo Ping was also stunned. He visited the Mohist Holy Land and spent some effort to invite someone, but now the other party said it was at the request of someone else? And someone else entrusted him to take care of Li Hao?

Seeing the Thief Sage's puzzled gaze, Yuan Zhou smiled slightly: "I didn't want to agree, but the Thief Sage gave too much."

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping: "..."

That is to say, the other party ate benefits from both sides?

It was originally at the request of someone else, earned a favor, and earned a favor and benefits from him, good fellow...

"I don't know who entrusted you to take care of him?" Feng Master Feng Bo Ping asked curiously. If Li Hao knew a Sage from the Sword Ancestor Holy Land, he wouldn't be surprised, but the Mohist family was in the Tianyuan Realm, and Li Hao hadn't been there. Who would know him?

Yuan Zhou's smile was somewhat mysterious: "It's inconvenient to say more."

Seeing that he didn't want to reveal it, Feng Master Feng Bo Ping could only give up. Li Hao was suspicious in his heart, but didn't think much about it. He would know sooner or later.

"Little guy, you owe me a favor again. This time you must take the first place. I'm waiting for you to repay the favor."

The Da Da Huang Tian Saint looked at Li Hao with a smile.

Li Hao smiled bitterly and nodded earnestly: "I will!"

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping said to Li Hao: "To cover you to the Tianyuan Realm, you need to use the clone technique you had in the human world. Can you do it now?"

Li Hao was stunned, immediately knowing what Old Man Feng was talking about. His double-sided person illustration attribute could create a clone, inheriting 30% of the main body's power.

"No problem."

Li Hao nodded.

"Okay, then you practice the technique first, and we will wait for you outside."

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping said.

Three people left the courtyard.

Li Hao saw this, immediately activated the illustration attribute, and created the dark-side clone.

Looking at the dark-side clone that was exactly the same as his appearance and aura, Li Hao vaguely guessed Old Man Feng's plan.

After the clone was created, Li Hao called Old Man Feng.

Old Man Feng, Yuan Zhou, and the Da Da Huang Tian Saint came in again. When they saw Li Hao's dark-side clone, they were all somewhat surprised.

"Your clone can really be fake and real."

Yuan Zhou said.

The Da Da Huang Tian Saint looked twice. Although she could see the obvious difference, she was only able to see it because she was proficient in the fraud lie Dao. Ordinary people might not.

"Not bad." She said an appreciative evaluation, looking at Li Hao's eyes more and more appreciative. If she could trick this child into the Da Da Huang Tian Holy Land to become a Holy Son, then the Holy Land would have no worries even without her in the future.

"Your main body will follow us, and the incarnation will be secretly escorted by the Da Da Huang Tian Saint."

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping said to Li Hao, this was the decision he discussed with the Da Da Huang Tian Saint.

It was mainly the Da Da Huang Tian Saint's idea. In terms of fraud, the Da Da Huang Tian Saint was the top expert.

The control of the human heart was wonderful to the peak.

Li Hao nodded, all arranged by them.

As the date approached, the Holy Sons of the two major Holy Lands gathered together, took a huge flying boat treasure, and crossed the void.

Feng Master Feng Bo Ping, Yuan Zhou, including Li Hao's main body, were all here, as well as the Holy Sons of the two major Holy Lands, with a large number of people.

After they drove out of the Holy Land, two hours later, the Da Da Huang Tian Saint took Li Hao's incarnation and flew to the Tianyuan Realm from another route, with obscure tracks on the way.
