Accompanied by the integration of the Overlapping Wave sword intent, the three sword qi rapidly overlapped, instantly erupting with sword light not inferior to that projection.

Just as Li Hao thought he could tie with one sword, suddenly, the projection also fiercely swung out three sword qi, also integrating the Overlapping Wave sword intent into them. In an instant, its sword radiance soared, illuminating the entire heaven and earth.

Li Hao was stunned, his pupils shrinking slightly, and he immediately sensed the difficulty of the True Venerable Tower challenge.

Whoosh! His figure hurriedly dodged, and that terrifying sword broke through his sword qi, following and killing him.

He used the Return to Ruins teleportation, but the projection's eyes seemed to see through his Return to Ruins path, and the sword light chased and killed him.

Li Hao dodged in a sorry state, narrowly avoiding that sword qi, but the projection followed him into the Return to Ruins.

"Break!"

Boom! Suddenly, the projection's body soared, using the Law of Heaven and Earth!

He flew up and looked out at the empty space, seeing the vast plains in the distance and the towering giant palace.

"Passed the first test in three years. This True Venerable Tower... could it be that he will also break through in a few years?"

While Li Hao was dazed, the purple dark light on the pillar gathered rapidly, concentrating at one point before the pillar, then slowly condensed, turning into a figure.

Li Hao was dazed, but there was a question in his heart. He looked at the deep darkness ahead, faintly sensing a force of restriction, preventing him from moving forward. But in that darkness, there was dim purple light, like the light he saw on the pillar earlier, flickering.

Like a gust of wind blowing, stirring Li Hao's hair, the world became quiet, leaving only Li Hao's own breathing.

On that pillar, purple light flickered like an earthworm, passing over like some Dao pattern.

But that situation was too ideal, and for him at the moment, it was too far away. Cultivating the End Realm is extremely difficult. Practicing one End Realm is already rare. Cultivating all of them to the End Realm, Li Hao estimated that only existences at the Immortal Emperor level could possibly do it.

And the projection also exploded at full speed to catch up. Although the sword intent was extremely fast and strong, it couldn't touch Li Hao, which was useless.

Moreover, if the strength improvement after enlightenment is not obvious, even if enlightened, it is difficult to reverse.

"Unfortunately, this test requires defeating the projection. If it were just about lasting for a long time, I could pass it in one go."

Even this Immortal Dao supreme treasure used by the Immortal Emperor to select disciples cannot project power exceeding the End Realm!

Li Hao thought to himself.

When facing Li Hao's sword attack, the projection's first reaction was not to run, not to use Return to Ruins to dodge, but to counter-kill, crushing over with more violent attacks! But this time, ten thousand sword qi gathered, and in an instant, the sword radiance erupted by Li Hao's sword, driving the ten thousand sword qi to erupt, its terrifying and biting power instantly covered the projection's sword radiance.

When the two expressions were changing, Li Hao also returned to the prayer mat. He was hundreds of meters away from the True Venerable Tower and saw the tower gate close automatically.

Soon, in this vast world, two towering figures stood, erupting in a great battle.

Li Hao was dumbfounded. What's the situation? Could it be that the challenge just now didn't count? At this time, before he could think much, after the projection condensed, it bowed slightly to Li Hao, making a gesture of invitation, and then suddenly erupted with terrifying power.

Li Hao gradually observed the situation of this projection. The power of the Heavens' Star Veins had not been enhanced.

Li Hao did not meet the battle, but chose to avoid it, observing the projection's attack flaws.

Li Hao's eyes flickered, slowly starting to examine himself, wanting to use his own advantages.

It's just that, unlike before, the pillar he just saw was actually suspended in this air, towering and standing.

Lin Sage stared at the youth flying back, looking back three times at every step, his expression extremely complex. At this moment, he still remembered not long ago, when he challenged the True Venerable Tower, the other party was sitting there playing chess, not paying attention to him at all, looking completely indifferent. At that time, he felt dissatisfaction and disdain in his heart, but at this very moment, he felt a sense of humiliation.

He looked at the shattered and dissipated projection, somewhat dazed, and somewhat unbelievable. He succeeded! Without relying on the super-ordinary chess heart, purely relying on pure combat sensing, he found a way to break the game in this invincible dangerous situation.

"My advantage lies in my Heavens' Star Veins..."

"Almost two sticks of incense!"

Sage Luo's words also made the other Sages' mouths twitch slightly.

The projection's desire to attack was extremely strong, which Li Hao remembered Old Wang saying. He observed all the way and also saw this point, which was also the point that made challengers miserable—no chance to breathe. But at the same time... advantage is disadvantage, having is not having!

Being able to stay inside for so long on the first try made them all almost suspect whether Li Hao had cleared the level inside.

Li Hao realized in his heart.

"But since the Immortal Emperor set up such a test, there must be someone who can pass it. Moreover, this test is only to become his registered disciple. If even the test for a registered disciple cannot be passed, this is too exaggerated..."

Li Hao scanned around and saw some light shining in not far away, which were several windowless gaps.

At the same time, behind him, the Heaven and Earth Dharma Image slowly emerged. Around the Heaven and Earth Dharma Image, all the Sages' Dharma Images circled, like shadows, passing a steady stream of Sage Dao power to the Heaven and Earth Dharma Image.

Aside from this method, it would be really difficult to defeat this projection.

"Combat is also layout, swinging the sword is like placing a piece..."

Li Hao looked over, thinking he was seeing the crowd outside the tower, but suddenly was stunned.

"End Realm power, this projection has not been enhanced!"

Whoosh! When Li Hao opened his eyes again, he found himself back in the vast world just now.

The challenge is over, is it time to go out?

Li Hao didn't continue to run, but turned around abruptly, staring at the projection, erupting with all his strength, the divine blood burning and surging, the heart in his chest burning like a flame, beating violently.

"In my eyes, this projection is difficult to deal with. If it were from the projection's perspective, perhaps the current me is even more difficult to deal with. The power is higher than my own, but it can't kill me..."

Whoosh! Li Hao instinctively dodged with the Return to Ruins extreme realm teleportation.

Li Hao still didn't find the projection's flaw, didn't find a chance to counter-kill, and felt somewhat puzzled and distressed in his heart.

This is an excellent opportunity to examine himself.

At this moment, before his eyes, was a dark and magnificent palace, surrounded by pitch-black, like iron walls, the light dim.

"Sword Dao, the projection's Sword Dao power is too strong. Although it is still the tenth level, it is stronger than my sword intent."

After resting for a while, Li Hao walked toward the vortex gate.

At this moment, Li Hao looked at the crowd on the prayer mats, seeing Flower Sage and Wanderer Sage controlling their complex expressions and smiling at him. Li Hao also smiled back, knowing they had no other intentions.

Among them, Li Hao also saw Old Wang, standing above the crowd, also quietly watching here.

In the dodging again and again, he continued to observe the projection's attack, only to be shocked the more he looked, actually finding no flaws.

Soon, a suction force came from the pillar, dragging Li Hao's body in.

Li Hao turned around and killed back abruptly.

Li Hao's expression changed slightly, without any hesitation, and he performed them at the same time.

But at this moment, several of them stood up, stretching their heads to stare over here.

They had worked hard here for tens of thousands of years, only to end up in vain?

And winning earlier... was also because Li Hao used his only power to launch a charge.

Sage Luo whispered, his voice carrying disbelief and a trace of daze.

He reached out and touched it, the Dao power pulling, drawing the space Dao power above.

Brilliant golden light erupted, silver hair flying, the projection's soaring power climbed step by step. Under Li Hao's shocked gaze, it actually became stronger and more terrifying than before! If it was only twice the power of his own earlier, now, the projection's power was at least five times! This five times was not the five times of an ordinary Supreme Sage, but five times his own, extremely exaggerated.

Li Hao scratched his head, turned and walked out of the tower gate. If there are questions, go find Old Wang. He will always get the answer.

Old Wang's chess skill was extremely profound, clearly exceeding him. Even if Li Hao was at the tenth level of chess skill now, looking back at Old Wang's chess skill, he felt the other party was not at the tenth level, but at a higher level.

And on the other side, Li Hao saw the many prayer mats in the distance, and the people sitting on the prayer mats.

Sage Ming and Sage Mu's expressions were gloomy, staring at the youth, with anger and killing intent faintly appearing in the depths of their eyes, but they quickly restrained them.

This light came from behind. Li Hao turned his head to look and saw the tower gate he had just crossed, only a few steps away from him.

Although the projection's movement speed was twice his, it still couldn't break through the crossing of the Return to Ruins extreme realm.

Soon, it was like crossing into an abyss, and his body had a feeling of weightlessness.

And the crowd on the prayer mat saw the True Venerable Tower gate open. Not long after, Li Hao's figure walked out from inside, still shaking his head, seemingly looking helpless and confused. Seeing this scene, the crowd felt the heart that had been hanging in their hearts finally died.

But at this time, the projection directly transported heaven and earth power, instantly cutting off the Return to Ruins, and the powerful force forced Li Hao out of the Return to Ruins teleportation in an instant.

Boom! Without any suspense, Li Hao felt his physical body shatter. In addition, a terrifying Primordial Spirit power attacked, crushing his Primordial Spirit in an instant.

Li Hao couldn't help but laugh out loud, feeling the joy of combat for the first time, actually making his blood boil like playing chess.

If he embedded the newly comprehended super-ordinary chess heart into the movement Dao, he would certainly have a chance to turn defeat into victory, but this was ultimately a bit like cheating.

If there were True Immortal Realm Ancient Demons here, they would be instantly killed and swept away by this projection! "Power, speed, movement, all are two times!"

"Am I still inside the tower?"

The projection reacted extremely quickly, instantly slashing with a sword. Although the sword was rushed, under the situation of power suppression, the charging attack was still easily broken.

With continuous dodging, Li Hao saw the projection using various means to chase and block him, but it was useless.

Li Hao dodged desperately, continuously using Return to Ruins teleportation. The Heavens' Star Veins shrouded and circled around him. Although his movement was at the ninth level, being surpassed by the projection, under the situation of near-infinite energy, the continuous use of Return to Ruins teleportation still barely pulled out a trace of breathing space.

At this time, a wave of mental fatigue surged. Although the Heavens' Star Veins could bring Li Hao near-infinite power, the mental fatigue brought by the intense combat and killing just now needed to be relieved by himself. Fortunately, his Primordial Spirit was extremely strong, and his mental power far exceeded the Sage level, otherwise, the fatigue at this moment would be enough to make one fall asleep.

Whoosh.

This pillar, could it be the door to transmit out? Old Wang didn't seem to tell him how to get out after the challenge. I guess he thought it was too simple and didn't need to say much? Li Hao scanned around, and there was nothing else around, so the answer was obvious.

They knew that under Old Wang's eyes, if they really did any tricks, the ending would be even more miserable.

Short exchange, Li Hao was still no match, and could only dodge.

Suddenly, his thoughts moved. The projection was already so powerful, yet it had been slow to kill him, precisely because he had the Heavens' Star Veins, and his energy was near-infinite, leading to the Return to Ruins extreme realm being able to rest without interruption. If it were anyone else, they would have been drained long ago.

Accompanied by his sword light slashing out, thousands of sword qi gathered from the void, condensing and blending together. All this eruption happened in an instant.

Seeing this scene, Li Hao also determined his location, still in the True Venerable Tower.

"Faster speed, the movement I know, the projection knows, and under the two-times power gap, it plays even more freely!"

Racing with this kind of guy seems a bit difficult for people.

When his gaze met Old Wang's, Old Wang's somewhat dazed expression was suddenly stunned, a trace of surprise and shock appearing in the depths of his eyes.

That figure, exactly the same as Li Hao, was the projection.

There were sword qi left along the way in that path. With continuous Return to Ruins teleportation, more and more sword qi were left behind. When Li Hao stepped out of the Return to Ruins teleportation again, he stood in the center of this chess game.

Li Hao thought to himself.

"..."

From the time Li Hao went in until now, someone was timing it, and a stick of incense had burned out!

If it weren't for what Sage Ming and Sage Mu said, that they would directly fight the projection after entering, and couldn't delay time, they would have suspected that Li Hao was sightseeing inside.

Before he could curse, the projection in front of him had already killed him at high speed.

Fortunately, the Return to Ruins extreme realm maintained by the Heavens' Star Veins, the uninterrupted teleportation, allowed him to persist until now.

When the power is weaker than the other party, to win by weakness, one must concentrate on one point and erupt with all strength!

"This True Venerable Tower challenge, although a test, seems to be a kind of exercise!"

Li Hao's eyes flickered. In an instant, although he was dodging in the Return to Ruins in a sorry state, his heart suddenly felt calm, extremely quiet.

At this moment, a vortex emerged in the void where the projection dissipated, faintly a gate.

Am I usually this strong? Li Hao was speechless in his heart, not knowing whether to be happy or bitter.

Subsequently, the projection instantly condensed the power of heaven and earth, turning into a huge sword radiance. When Li Hao just reacted, it had already descended before his eyes and fell instantly.

Li Hao's eyes flickered, suppressing the thought of using the super-ordinary chess heart, wanting to try it himself again.

Just sensed several hidden killing intents, but they all disappeared quickly. Li Hao knew that his sharpness probably attracted others to have crooked thoughts. Sharpness is bound to be missed; this is the law of all things, and no one can avoid it.

If they fought again, Li Hao still had no confidence that he could win.

Li Hao smiled and dissolved the Law of Heaven and Earth, his body recovered to its original state, his aura also restrained, and many extreme realm powers slowly sank into his body.

He accelerated the speed of Return to Ruins teleportation again, continuously flashing in the void.

Not long after, light appeared before his eyes again, and the blocked perception was unlocked.

Even a group of Ancient Demons would probably be instantly killed and swept away!

At this moment, the projection's performance was perhaps even more perfect than his own, but everything has flaws and cracks. If they can be made up for, perhaps that is the original intention of the test, allowing one's own strength to go to the next level.

The projection didn't stop. When breaking Li Hao's sword light, it chased and killed him closely.

This point is also exactly the projection's weakness!

However, although dodging and avoiding battle at this moment, Li Hao was also dodging extremely hard.

The power of the Dharma Image erupted by both sides was almost equal. Li Hao was pleasantly surprised in his heart, which meant that his Heaven and Earth Dharma Image seemed to have touched the End Realm.

Darkness appeared before Li Hao's eyes, but the faint light in the darkness gradually became clear.

Li Hao immediately understood. The reason Old Wang said it was difficult to have sudden enlightenment here was that the projection's attacks never stopped for a moment. Unless one really hit a bottleneck and had some understanding, it was possible to have sudden enlightenment in such intense killing.

He came to the pillar and looked at it carefully for two times, finding that there was indeed space Dao power on it, which is generally used in places of transmission.

He used himself as a piece, building a chess game, forming a terrifying sword array!

"...?"

And before his eyes was a purple glowing pillar!

"However..."

End Realm... it really seems to be the extreme.

If this is the case, then what are they working hard for? Compared to these monsters, it's better to lie flat.

The world is silent.

"Explode!"

"If you can cultivate all realms to the End Realm, this True Venerable Tower challenge... is it equivalent to no enhancement, just self-fighting self?"

Between heaven and earth, the sword intent dissipated.

This sword, Li Hao is willing to call it the strongest! Boom! In an instant, the projection's sword light shattered, its body was submerged by the sword radiance, and it shattered in an instant. At the moment the projection shattered, Li Hao's Primordial Spirit killed out, drawing the remaining power of the Sword Dao, and directly crushed the projection's Primordial Spirit!

Hearing Dong Dao report the time, the crowd was dumbfounded.

"It is the End Realm power of the Heavens' Star Veins that allowed me to persist until now. Since the energy is infinite, then..."

For this, everything else must be abandoned, cast aside!

Li Hao was dumbfounded. What kind of ghost is this?

A two-times power gap, which can be called a cross-border of half a major realm.

Li Hao erupted with all his strength, fighting with the projection.

He suddenly thought of the chess game fighting with Old Wang earlier.

After a stick of incense.

Being able to win earlier was because Old Wang underestimated him and bet that he hadn't seen the flaw.

With the flashing, Li Hao's actions gradually changed. If you look down from high altitude, you will find that Li Hao's Return to Ruins teleportation route is not chaotic, but gradually becomes regular, and presents a pattern! That is a painting, and at the same time, that is also a chess manual.

"Refreshing!"

But... this Immortal Emperor's orthodoxy, is it going to be handed over to others?

He seemed to have always stood in this place, and everything just now was just a nightmare.

Now, besides the Heavens' Star Veins, what surpasses Li Hao before his eyes is only the power intensity of other realms.

"Finally came out. This is too long. Who kept time?"

However, with Old Wang sitting in town, plus his own strength, he is not afraid of others doing any tricks.

After all, let the heart be free. If there are traces to follow, don't blame him for being ruthless.

"You kid..."

Old Wang looked at Li Hao arriving, a trace of complexity flashing in his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh softly.
