Chapter 577: God War Erupts

When Li Hao cultivated the final realm of the Myriad Heavens Star Veins, half a year had passed.

Two more years, and it would be the day the ancient hall opened.

Li Hao didn't know if the God War would affect the ancient hall, but he had to prepare in advance and must not just be a key and a pawn.

For the past half year, the Stealing Heaven Holy Land had been calm, with flowers and grass withering and growing with the years, giving a sense of peace and tranquility.

Li Hao had some free time, played chess with Hongyue, went fishing with Old Man Feng, and made appointments with the Sword Master and the Da Huang Tian Sage to go fishing in the Tianhe again.

After all, the Divine Water Dao Fish was a heaven and earth treasure. If he could catch a few more, 'Gongming' could continue to cross the tribulation.

Now, 'Gongming' was at the Second Tribulation. To upgrade to the Third Tribulation, it needed 80 heaven and earth treasures, a huge quantity.

"It's hooked!"

Li Hao felt the fishing line tremble slightly, his eyes brightened, and through the perception of the Qi of the fishing line, he could sense that what was hooked was a Divine Water Dao Fish.

He quickly pulled the line, but didn't pull hard, instead dragging it back and forth to consume the Divine Water Dao Fish's power.

When the time was right, he pulled it up violently, dragging the exhausted Divine Water Dao Fish up.

"Three already. You kid, don't fish all the Dao fish away."

The Sword Master saw the Divine Water Dao Fish Li Hao caught, its scales emitting a misty luster, surrounded by Dao rhyme, its body plump and beautiful, and couldn't help but feel envious.

The Da Huang Tian Sage couldn't help but look; she had only caught three as well. Now, Li Hao's fishing skills were actually catching up to hers.

Feng Feng Bo Ping looked at it, then stared at his own fishing line, his lips moving slightly, as if muttering: Fish come quickly, fish come quickly...

Li Hao took off the hook, put the Divine Water Dao Fish into the heaven and earth space, then cast the line again, looking at the soaring fishing experience, and couldn't help but smile.

Two trips to the Tianhe for fishing had brought him a rich harvest, and his fishing Dao had now reached the seventh stage, with experience almost full.

Once it broke through to the eighth stage, his fishing skills would go a step further, and he estimated he could surpass the Da Huang Tian Sage.

The 'Lie' (Lying) Dao cultivated by the Da Huang Tian Sage was most suitable for fishing, but she didn't seem particularly keen on this and hadn't studied it painstakingly; otherwise, Li Hao estimated she could reach the tenth stage of fishing.

After fishing for more than ten days, Feng Feng Bo Ping and the Sword Master both had Divine Water Dao Fish hooked respectively. Li Hao caught two more, and the Da Huang Tian Sage caught three.

Li Hao's fishing experience reached saturation at the seventh stage. As the Divine Water Dao Fish was hooked, the impact of Dao rhyme made Li Hao have insights in his heart, and his fishing successfully broke through to the eighth stage.

A large amount of fishing insights poured in, and Li Hao's understanding of fishing became even deeper.

He was about to cast the line to try, when suddenly, the Sword Master and Feng Feng Bo Ping's expressions moved slightly, as if they had received some news, and their faces changed slightly.

At the same time, the Da Huang Tian Sage was also startled, then closed her eyes. After a moment, she opened her eyes again, a look of shock appearing in her eyes.

"Something happened in the Yuntian Realm and the Xuanfeng Realm!"

"And the Demon Emperor Realm, the Xiuluo Night Emperor there was killed!"

The Sword Master followed up, his expression becoming solemn.

"The news from the Yunque Tower says it's the God Race who took action, detecting traces of Extreme Dao power, and many God Race people have occupied those holy lands."

Feng Feng Bo Ping said in a low voice, his eyes somewhat shaken.

Even as juniors who hadn't participated in the God-Extinguishing War back then, they had all heard of that battle.

They didn't expect that after countless years, the God Race had actually grown stronger again and appeared in the world.

"Three middle-level Small Worlds, actually all had accidents in a blink of an eye, and no one could notice. This speed is too fast. I'm afraid there is a Supreme Sage existence who took action..."

The Da Huang Tian Sage's eyes were solemn. "The God Race cultivates with Extreme Dao, but it's not easy to cultivate to the Supreme Sage. But looking at this situation, it seems a second God King has been born?"

Li Hao heard their words and had no heart to cast the line anymore, knowing that Ying Xiaoxiao's ancestor had started to take action, but he didn't expect that it had only been half a year since Ying Xiaoxiao's invitation, and the other party had launched an attack, and the momentum was so fierce.

It seemed that the God Race had been dormant for these years and had made many plans and preparations in the dark.

"The God Race has appeared. This battle should just be an appetizer. The Seeing Yuanzu will not sit idly by..."

The Sword Master and the three looked at each other, worry floating in their eyes.

If that battle broke out again, the Myriad Heavens would surely be plunged into misery again, with countless deaths and injuries.

"I want to return to the Sword Ancestor Holy Land, restrain the holy land, and by the way, discuss with the Sword Sage. In this battle, try to avoid getting involved."

The Sword Master stood up immediately and said to Li Hao and the others.

Li Hao and Old Man Feng nodded slightly and didn't keep him.

After the Sword Master left, Feng Feng Bo Ping sighed: "Another catastrophe. This God Race dares to appear, likely also prepared to fight the Seeing Yuanzu. They are coming fiercely, I'm afraid it's not simple. Let's not get involved. These three Small Worlds that had accidents were all people involved in that God Race war back then. It seems they are more here for revenge."

"Correct."

Li Hao nodded, seeing that Old Man Feng and the others didn't want to get involved, he felt much more at ease.

"Let's go back too, seal the holy land, and it's best to activate the World Array of the Small Thousand World to avoid the God Race biting around like a mad dog and biting us too."

The Da Huang Tian Sage stood up, also having no heart to fish leisurely here anymore.

Seeing this, Li Hao followed them back.

After returning to the Small Thousand World, Feng Feng Bo Ping and the Da Huang Tian Sage went to activate the World Array of the Small Thousand World. Once the array was activated, the Small Thousand World would be forbidden from entering or leaving, equivalent to self-sealing.

After returning to the holy land, they sealed the holy land again and ordered the major Divine Dynasties of the Small Thousand World to appease the turmoil.

"The Seeing Yuanzu has been unfathomable all these years. This God Race dares to be so fierce and exposed. I don't know what they have to rely on. Let's wait and see."

In the holy land, Feng Feng Bo Ping said to Li Hao, also to avoid Li Hao getting involved.

Li Hao nodded. After thinking about it, he still didn't tell Old Man Feng about the God Race ancestor, thinking that this news would spread before long.

With the fall of the three middle-level Small Worlds, the God Race's movements were like thunder and fire. After seizing the three middle-level Small Worlds, they didn't continue to disguise themselves. The news about the God Race's appearance spread to all major forces in the Myriad Heavens in just one day.

This news was like a bolt from the blue, coming abruptly. The holy lands of the Myriad Heavens were all shaken, and the ancient dusty memories related to the God Race all surged out. Those holy lands that had participated in the God-Extinguishing War back then all had ugly faces, sealed their holy lands, and waited in full battle array.

At the same time, many eyes were fixed on the Upper Three Realms, especially the Seeing Yuanzu Holy Land in the Tianyuan Realm, wanting to see how the Seeing Yuanzu would deal with it.

But the Seeing Yuanzu Holy Land was very calm, and no news was released.

As the God Race completely occupied the three middle-level Small Worlds, the incense temples in the many Divine Dynasties inside were all destroyed. Most of the Sages or Supreme Sages worshipped inside were destroyed, which meant cutting off the incense.

As the three Small Worlds were sealed, two days later, news came out that two Small Worlds had fallen and been occupied by the God Race. At the same time, four more Sages had fallen, causing the Myriad Heavens to shake.

"I heard that many Sages who participated back then have quietly gone to the Tianyuan Realm. This time the God Race has returned, although the offensive is fierce, it will not last long and will definitely have a result soon."

In the holy land, Feng Feng Bo Ping came to Li Hao's small courtyard, and the two discussed these things while drinking tea.

"Is there no movement from the Seeing Yuanzu Holy Land?"

Li Hao asked.

Feng Feng Bo Ping shook his head: "With the God Race having such momentum, the Seeing Yuanzu will likely choose cautiously, inviting the Supreme Sages of that year to take action together, to repeat the events of that year. It's just that I don't know if the God Race can block it this time."

Li Hao heard this, and a trace of worry appeared in his eyes.

Having encountered a siege back then, that God King must have made preparations this time, and the Seeing Yuanzu would likely be even more fully prepared.

A few days later.

News came out one after another from Small Worlds, submitting to the God Race's command and choosing to stand on their side, whether forced or voluntary was unknown.

And on the Tianyuan Realm side, news also came out that they would fight a decisive battle with the God Race at Mi Xu Tian Abyss.

Mi Xu Tian Abyss was a dangerous void place, like a crack, with a bottomless abyss. It is rumored that the bottom of this abyss leads to outside the Myriad Sages World, but no one dared to go down. Sages had explored it before, but never returned after going down. There were Supreme Sages who came out to warn that it was not the path of Immortals and Gods and could not be explored, so it was also listed as a void forbidden area.

Not long after the news came out, a Sage visited outside the Small Thousand World.

Feng Feng Bo Ping went to receive him. The other party was a Sage from the Seeing Yuanzu Holy Land, who came to visit.

Feng Feng Bo Ping had some guesses in his heart, but still received him into the holy land calmly.

After simple pleasantries, the other party came to visit Li Hao and directly revealed the idea of inviting him to fight and kill demons.

Feng Feng Bo Ping listened quietly on the side. Although the other party also invited him, the treatment was not comparable to Li Hao's. He only promised him the incense of one world, while the benefits given to Li Hao were ten lower-level Small Worlds! In addition, the Seeing Yuanzu also promised that when exploring the Immortal God path in the ancient hall, he would do his best to protect Li Hao and not let him encounter danger.

Li Hao listened quietly to the various benefits promised by the Seeing Yuanzu reported by the other party, but his expression remained calm. Although these benefits were indeed tempting and made him feel moved, he had promised Ying Xiaoxiao that he would not get involved in this dispute.

Moreover, for the exploration of the ancient hall, he didn't intend to rely on others. At that time, the Huntian Sage would likely take the opportunity to attack him. Once the Immortal God path was found, the other party would leave this place and would definitely not let him go before leaving.

At that time, whether the Seeing Yuanzu would fight the Huntian Sage for him remained to be seen.

"I fought the Green Lamp Buddha and the Void Ancestor before and was injured, so it's inconvenient to fight again. I am currently recuperating."

Li Hao found an excuse to decline, so he wouldn't offend the Seeing Yuanzu.

And this Sage, upon hearing this, looked at Li Hao with some surprise, and the sincerity on his face converged a bit. He said seriously: "Haotian Sage, this Demon Race has made a comeback, and the Seeing Yuanzu is leading the Sages to crusade, which is also acting on behalf of heaven. The Demon Race is cunning and cruel, cultivating by creating slaughter. Killing the Demon Race is also a great merit."

Li Hao sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he just pretended not to understand and nodded:

"I'll consider it after I recover my body. Thank the Seeing Yuanzu for his kindness on my behalf."

This Sage stared at Li Hao for a moment, then didn't say anything more and nodded before standing up to take his leave. But there was clearly a trace of displeasure in his eyes.

After he left, Feng Feng Bo Ping said to Li Hao: "If you refuse the Seeing Yuanzu, I'm worried that the Seeing Yuanzu will overthink, suspecting you of colluding with the God Race, and turn to deal with you."

Li Hao shook his head: "No. The God Race is their main enemy. They won't easily make another enemy at this time. Moreover, the more benefits the Seeing Yuanzu gives me, the more unfavorable the situation is. That God Race might be more troublesome than we imagined. Otherwise, why would the Seeing Yuanzu invite someone like me who isn't even a Supreme Sage to help?"

Feng Feng Bo Ping heard this, and thoughts appeared in his eyes: "This reminds me. If all those Supreme Sages took action, the Seeing Yuanzu would have taken action long ago. That God Race is strong, but they wouldn't dare to fight the Myriad Heavens alone, unless the other Supreme Sages are unwilling to get involved."

"Hmm..."

Li Hao's eyes flickered. He had also considered this point.

Back then, the Seeing Yuanzu united with several Supreme Sages to suppress the God King. Now, these Supreme Sages were unwilling to take action. The reason was likely only one.

The ancient hall.

Two years later, the ancient hall would open. What the situation inside would be was unknown. At that time, if they were competing for the Immortal God path, the Seeing Yuanzu would inevitably become the biggest obstacle.

If the God Race and the Seeing Yuanzu fought, both sides would suffer, which was the result most happy to see for other Supreme Sages.

The God Race choosing to declare war at this time was also very likely considering this point, having insight into the thoughts of other Supreme Sages.

In a blink of an eye, another half month passed.

The God Race's movements became bigger and bigger, seizing four or five Small Worlds one after another.

And on the Tianyuan Realm side, they also sent Sages to have a great battle with the God Race in a certain Small World.

Li Hao paid attention to the situation outside while also cultivating diligently.

Now that the second final realm was cultivated, he freed up time to use the Dao-governing to condense laws, integrate them into his flesh, and try to impact the Hearing Dao Extreme Realm.

If he could cultivate the Hearing Dao Extreme Realm, Li Hao felt his strength would improve by another large margin.

After all, the Eternal Dao Domain Extreme Realm was rarely mastered by Sages, and the Hearing Dao Extreme Realm was likely not mastered even by Supreme Sages. When fighting the Huntian Sage at that time, he could have one more means.

As the laws were continuously condensed, Li Hao's flesh became stronger and stronger. All his bones were refined into Dao bones, and his divine blood also contained the power of the Great Dao.

If he could refine his whole body into a Dao body, Li Hao felt that his flesh would be further strengthened and would be difficult to destroy.

While he was cultivating, on the Tianyuan Realm side, many Sages gathered, and the two camps of the Seeing Yuanzu and the God Race had frequent incidents of Sages attacking each other, but no real great battle had broken out.

They were probing each other, and occasionally there would be Sage casualties, but the Seeing Yuanzu and the God King had not yet clashed.

Feng Feng Bo Ping brought news that Li Hao's guess was correct. The holy lands of other Supreme Sages had no movement and seemed to have no intention of getting involved in this great battle.

Including the Supreme Sages who had joined forces to kill the God King back then, they all sealed their holy lands.

Li Hao guessed that besides the ancient hall, it was also possible that the God King had secretly promised these Supreme Sages some benefits, which made them not join forces.

As the God Race and the Sages of the Seeing Yuanzu Holy Land fought continuously, this catastrophe affected various worlds, and more and more Sages chose to stand in line, defecting to the Seeing Yuanzu's camp to fight the God Race.

Time flew by, and a year passed.

The friction between the God Race and the Seeing Yuanzu Holy Land continued, but they did not conduct a final great battle, which was very different from the rapid results predicted by the Sages at the beginning. All of this stemmed from the fact that other Supreme Sages did not participate.

Li Hao faintly felt that this great battle might continue until the ancient hall opened before there would be a result.

And with the ancient hall about to open, time was becoming more and more urgent for Li Hao.
