Chapter 685

In the passage, the towering Imperial Jianshan was suspended in front of the disciples.

Outside this Imperial Jianshan was an endless green plain with rolling hills. At this moment, the disciples were standing in twos and threes on the hills, all looking at the towering Imperial Jianshan with extraordinary temperament.

Li Hao, Miss Yue Xi, Gu Yan, and the other three entered it one after another and landed on a hill.

"I'm going first."

Miss Yue Xi just stared at it and said immediately, then her gaze passed Li Hao and looked at Gu Yan standing beside him.

Seeing that the other party did not look at her, Miss Yue Xi's eyes flickered, and she turned and flew away without looking back.

Li Hao looked around and enjoyed the surroundings, seeing many disciples rushing toward Imperial Jianshan after a short stay.

While he was looking around casually, he saw the little junior brother Gu Yan beside him still standing quietly without taking action.

"Aren't you going?"

Li Hao asked with some surprise.

"Competing together lowers the difficulty; winning is also boring."

Gu Yan said with an indifferent expression.

Li Hao was stunned and couldn't help but laugh lightly; tsk, this is the arrogance of a top-tier genius.

However, does your mother know that you talk like this, and it's easy to get beaten outside?

"Then I'll go first."

Li Hao said, and then followed the crowd of many disciples to the towering Imperial Jianshan.

Seeing Li Hao's figure flying away, Gu Yan's expression remained calm, just staring quietly at the top of the Imperial Jianshan; he faintly felt that there seemed to be a gaze there, also gazing at himself.

Soon, Li Hao arrived at the first layer of Imperial Jianshan.

There was an immortal power barrier enveloping the outside; looking from the outside in, it was just a blurry outline of mountains and rivers.

Li Hao passed through the barrier, and immediately had a feeling of inspiration; a voice told him that the way to pass the first layer was to go to the central area, where there was a passage to the second layer.

At this time, in front of his eyes was a vast and boundless world without borders; he was above a forest, and in his vicinity, he only sensed two intense battle auras.

Li Hao was surprised in his heart; this Imperial Jianshan looked only the size of a city from the outside, but it had a different world inside.

"The power of the Space Dao origin..."

Li Hao scanned around, and immediately saw the extraordinary nature of this Imperial Jianshan.

Through that obscure sensing, he could roughly distinguish where the central area was, which was also the guidance of some kind of power.

Li Hao was not in a hurry to find the central area, but rushed to one of the battle sites; he had not seen the Spirit Clan yet.

Soon, after Li Hao arrived at the battle site, he saw a woman in red sleeves fighting with four figures.

Is this the Spirit Clan? Li Hao looked in surprise; the appearance of the Spirit Clan in the True Realm was no different from the Human Clan, but their hair was silver-white, and their pupils had a transparent feeling, like people walking out of an ice and snow world, and their aura was also more elusive and obscure, and their use of immortal power seemed extremely light and delicate.

At this time, the woman in red sleeves was struggling to fight, continuously unleashing the Immortal's Guidance, but the sword technique had not been mastered to perfection, and this sword could not guide a path for herself.

Li Hao's arrival was not hidden; the woman in red sleeves soon noticed Li Hao's figure, and after seeing the Heavenly Court disciple uniform Li Hao was wearing, joy appeared in her eyes, and she hurriedly said:

"Senior brother, save me!"

The four Spirit Clan members also noticed Li Hao, and one of the young men suddenly broke away from the encirclement and flew toward Li Hao, intending to contain Li Hao first.

Li Hao watched their battle for a while and roughly saw some clues; compared to the Human Clan, the Spirit Clan's battle was more light and nimble, but they seemed to cherish their lives extremely and did not like to break power with power, otherwise the woman in red sleeves, who was only at the Third Level of the True Immortal Realm, would have been defeated by their joint efforts long ago.

"Want to save someone, pass me first..."

The Spirit Clan youth flew over like a teleportation and said coldly to Li Hao, while simultaneously flicking a blue butterfly-like light blade.

It's just that, before the word "pass" was finished, Li Hao flicked his finger, and a sword Qi was suddenly shot out, shattering the butterfly blade, and simultaneously piercing his shoulder in an instant, knocking him back.

Following that, Li Hao took a step and arrived beside the woman in red sleeves, raised his hand and waved, space vibrated, forcing all three other Spirit Clan members back.

Seeing the momentum Li Hao revealed in his gestures, all four Spirit Clan members were shocked, looked at each other, and saw that the disciple in front of them was not someone they could defeat.

Moreover, they also recognized the Heavenly Court disciple uniform; the person in front of them was inevitably a monster under some elder.

They did not linger anymore and quickly turned and flew away.

Their task of being caught here was to intercept those disciples whose conditions were not up to standard; like Li Hao, who was clearly not someone the first layer could keep, they retreated without any dragging of water.

With the retreat of the four Spirit Clan members, the woman in red sleeves finally had a chance to breathe; she also saw Li Hao knock back the four Spirit Clan members with a wave of his hand, and did not explode with too strong immortal power, but some other means.

"Many thanks to senior brother for the help, my name is Hu Hongyao, I don't know how to address senior brother, so I can thank you in the future!"

The woman in red sleeves wiped the sweat from her temples, came to Li Hao's side, and said with a joyful expression of surviving a disaster.

Li Hao looked at her smiling face, which had a bit of innocent and lively feeling, and couldn't help but smile, saying: "Just call me Haotian, it was just a small effort. You are an Earth Court disciple, right? This test is a bit difficult for you, so you'd better withdraw."

Hu Hongyao did not feel that Li Hao's words were hurtful, but nodded and said: "Hmm, I actually came to exercise, borrowing the venue here. If I can observe the battles of other senior brothers, perhaps I will have a great improvement. After all, we are all of the same sect and lineage..."

She said her little thoughts, and a blush appeared on her cheeks.

Li Hao was stunned and couldn't help but laugh; it was rare to meet such a straightforward woman, and he said:

"Then be careful yourself."

Hu Hongyao's head nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, then she blinked her eyes like star gems and said to Li Hao:

"Senior Brother Haotian, my hometown is Muxin County, where there are delicious mud dolls, and purple combined hundred Luo flowers bloom every August and September. I will bring them to you then."

Li Hao laughed and said: "Saving grace, why don't you give me immortal pills?"

Hu Hongyao was stunned, her cheeks immediately turned red, and she hurriedly said: "I thought you were a Heavenly Court disciple, Senior Brother, and you didn't lack any cultivation resources. If you want them, I have 10 Immortal Pill Bodhi Fairies here, and immortal stones... let me count them first."

Saying that, she really wanted to open her heaven and earth space to give to Li Hao.

Li Hao sensed the space fluctuation, and seeing that she was serious, he waved his hand to stop her, saying:

"Just kidding, if I like to eat something, you can just send me something delicious."

"So Senior Brother Haotian is also a glutton?"

Hu Hongyao's eyes lit up, as if she had found a fellow traveler, and hurriedly said: "Then I will look for you later, and I also know several small restaurants with particularly good tastes."

Li Hao laughed and said: "Okay, then you go first, while there are many people here."

Only then did Hu Hongyao remember the business, patted her head and nodded immediately, bowed and thanked Li Hao again and again, and then waved goodbye to Li Hao.

After she left, Li Hao also flew away slowly.

After flying for several thousand miles, Li Hao suddenly sensed three Spirit Clan auras at a cliff valley.

He released his perception to explore, but saw that there was a flat place polished in this cliff valley, where three Spirit Clan figures were sitting, with an old man and a middle-aged Spirit Clan member playing a chess game, and a little Spirit Clan girl serving on the side.

Li Hao was a bit surprised; this Spirit Clan can also play chess?

Li Hao approached.

At the cliff valley, the two Spirit Clan members who were playing chess seemed to perceive something; the old man among them glanced at the void and sighed:

"We don't go to find trouble with those little guys, but there are little guys running here."

The middle-aged Spirit Clan member opposite him dropped a piece and asked: "Master, we are ordered to guard those disciples, now we don't care here, is it really okay?"

"You didn't see that the outside is already in chaos; the real test is above, we are just going through the motions here."

The old Spirit Clan member said indifferently, then said to the woman beside him: "You go, drive that kid away, don't hinder us from playing chess."

The Spirit Clan woman beside nodded slightly, and then disappeared on the spot.

Li Hao now has the Fourth Level of the Space origin, and the Return to Ruins Teleportation is like a slow walk like a turtle in his eyes; he only needs one thought to change the other party's Return to Ruins Teleportation path, making the other party teleport to a place where even they are confused, or transfer the path to the place he attacks, making the other party caught off guard and directly hit by him.

But Li Hao had no interest in this little girl at this moment, but his gaze fell on that chessboard.

Just a glance, his mind could no longer leave.

That chess game was like a large net, capturing all his mind; that exquisite layout and intense confrontation made Li Hao's breathing a bit rapid.

"Stop, this is not a place you should come to, don't seek your own death."

At this time, the Spirit Clan woman teleported to Li Hao's eyes, seeing Li Hao still flying forward as if he didn't see her, couldn't help but frown, and at the same time, her whole body emitted a majestic immortal power, which was the Fifth Level of the True Immortal Realm.

But besides this immortal power, her gaze became like water blue, and the void around her seemed to be flowing like water waves.

Whoosh!

She suddenly made a move, raised her hand and pointed lightly, the void twisted like a vortex, following that, the immortal power shot toward Li Hao with an extremely mysterious trajectory.

Li Hao seemed not to notice, flying straight over.

Seeing Li Hao not even avoiding it, the Spirit Clan woman's face changed, and a trace of anger appeared in her eyes; she only wanted to teach the other party a lesson, letting him know the difficulties and retreat, but the other party was a bit ignorant of life and death!

She simply didn't bother to collect her strength and let this blow fall.

Bang!

The vortex-like sharp attack fell on Li Hao's chest; his Ancestral Immortal Body was automatically triggered, and his whole body stirred up an immortal power, directly stirring the vortex power to pieces.

This kind of attack could not hurt the Ancestral Immortal Body, like a slight itch.

But Li Hao still came back to his senses, looked at the shocked Spirit Clan woman, cupped his hands and said: "Girl, I have no intention of offending, I just want to watch a game of chess."

This time it was the Spirit Clan woman's turn not to hear what Li Hao was saying, just looking at this Human Clan in shock.

She and her master were imprisoned in the Abyss Master's domain, and their cultivation was suppressed to the Fifth Level of the True Immortal Realm, but she herself was not at the Fifth Level of the True Immortal Realm; her move just now, even if it was the Seventh Level of the True Immortal Realm, had the danger of being injured, but the Human Clan in front of her actually only relied on the immortal body flesh to block it?

Moreover, unscathed!

At this time, the two who were playing chess also noticed the movement here; hearing Li Hao's words, the old Spirit Clan member had a look of surprise in his eyes, and then revealed a look of interest:

"Young man, you also understand chess?"

Li Hao looked at the sound, immediately bypassed this Spirit Clan girl, and with the Dao rhyme of the Space Dao origin, combined with the Return to Ruins Teleportation, appeared in front of the cliff valley at a speed several times faster than the Return to Ruins Teleportation, and the path was untraceable!

"Understand a little, disturbed the two, hope you forgive me, you two continue."

Li Hao cupped his hands and bowed, his attitude extremely humble.

The two looked at each other, both a bit surprised; Ling'er actually failed to stop this Human Clan kid.

Moreover, they also recognized Li Hao's disciple uniform, which was the top-tier Heavenly Court disciple of Sword Abyss.

Some monster? Both faces revealed smiles; it was really interesting, there would be such an interesting person among the Human Clan geniuses.

"Okay, then you can watch."

The old Spirit Clan member didn't say much more and continued to play chess with his disciple.

Li Hao watched intently, and when the old Spirit Clan member dropped a piece, he asked:

"Excuse me for interrupting, where did the senior's first piece fall?"

"Oh?"

The old Spirit Clan member glanced at him, then raised his hand and pointed at the chessboard.

"What about you?"

Li Hao looked at the middle-aged Spirit Clan member.

The other party also saw Li Hao's idea and couldn't help but laugh, pointing out the position where he dropped the piece.

Li Hao stared, and countless complex chess paths emerged in his mind, calculating based on this as a stronghold.

!. Read

Both saw that Li Hao wanted to replay their chess paths through the initial piece dropping, but this required extremely profound chess skills.

They didn't care much about Li Hao, nor were they worried that Li Hao would suddenly attack; after all, if they really wanted to make a move, even a Ninth Level True Immortal Realm Sword Dao monster, they could take him down.

How many people can pass this first layer, they have the final say.

Except for those few guys who climbed over first, those were monsters in the Immortal Monarch Realm, they were really helpless...

While the two continued to compete, the Spirit Clan girl Ling'er who blocked Li Hao returned, seeing Li Hao's focused look at the chess game, not putting her in his eyes at all, couldn't help but glare at him, and then said to the old Spirit Clan member:

"Master, the disciple is incompetent, not his opponent."

"Hmm, no matter."

The old Spirit Clan member responded absent-mindedly, his gaze on the chessboard.

Ling'er looked at the Human Clan youth, seeing that the other party had no vigilance at all, this cliff valley presented such a strange scene, making her feel a bit absurd.

Other disciples were rushing to the central area, encountering them Spirit Clan either avoiding to save strength, or quickly defeating them, but the other party ran to this most dangerous place, stretching his neck to watch her master play chess here...

Three Spirit Clan members, one Human Clan... how to look at it together seems absurd.

Long time.

The breeze brushed the cliff stone, and this intense game also finally ended.

When the last piece fell, Li Hao couldn't help but reveal a sigh of admiration in his eyes.

He thought Old Man Wang's chess skills were the only ones he had seen in his life, but he didn't expect to meet two existences here who could be on par with Old Man Wang.

Moreover, they were equal in strength, fighting with all their might, and this competition made him feel a sense of satisfaction.

"Good chess!"

Li Hao couldn't help but praise.

The old Spirit Clan member won the game, with a victorious smile on his face, as well as a bit of aftertaste; hearing Li Hao's praise, he couldn't help but look at him and said with a smile:

"You understand?"

He meant understanding, not referring to winning or losing, but being able to understand the exquisiteness of every piece dropped.

Li Hao smiled and said: "Barely."

"Oh?"

The old Spirit Clan member was interested, picked up six black pieces and five white pieces from the chessboard, pointed to a place and asked Li Hao:

"If I drop this piece here, do you think I still have a chance of winning?"

Li Hao looked intently, and countless chess paths gathered in his mind, and he pondered:

"Only a glimmer of hope; if you drop the piece here, you have to cross the dragon bite here, and take the piece from his throat!"

"But if he notices in advance and closes the dragon bite, then there is no hope at all, so you need to do two cover-ups here on the side."

Hearing Li Hao's words, the old Spirit Clan member and the middle-aged man opposite were full of surprise.

This kid actually really understands chess, and his chess skills are not low.

"Interesting, interesting..."

The old Spirit Clan member couldn't help but laugh, then waved his hand to his disciple: "You get up, I'll play a game with this little brother."

The middle-aged man was stunned, a look of surprise appeared on his face, saying: "Master, but he is a Human Clan..."

"What about the Human Clan? 100,000 years ago, the Spirit Clan and the Human Clan were also allied clans."

The old Spirit Clan member said, then as if thinking of something, couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, saying: "In front of the chess Dao, there is no distinction between races, little brother, come."

He signaled his disciple to get up and let Li Hao sit down.

Seeing this, Li Hao naturally wouldn't be polite; his hands were already itchy when he was watching the chess game just now.

The chess skill level of these two was twelve levels, the same level as Old Man Wang; if he could defeat them, or compete with them, he might be able to touch the twelve-level chess Dao state of mind.

"Ling'er, how did you lose just now?"

The middle-aged man got up helplessly, walked to the side, and asked Ling'er beside him while watching Li Hao and Master grabbing pieces.

"His immortal body is very terrifying."

Ling'er looked at Li Hao and said in a low voice: "My current attack is difficult to hurt him."

The middle-aged man was stunned; he was also suppressed to the Fifth Level of the True Immortal Realm; although his Dao state comprehension was higher than Ling'er beside him, the other party couldn't break Li Hao's defense, so if he made a move, he might not necessarily be able to fully suppress him.

"But he is only at the Third Level of the True Immortal Realm..."

The middle-aged man looked at Li Hao; Li Hao was triggered by the Ancestral Immortal Body earlier, and the immortal power was scattered, and the Myriad Phenomena attributes could not be hidden.

Ling'er was silent and did not speak.

At this time, on the chessboard, Li Hao was fully devoted, fighting and playing chess with the old Spirit Clan member.

And several tens of thousands of miles outside this cliff valley, many Sword Abyss disciples were fighting with those Spirit Clan members, competing to enter the central area.

In the second layer, there were 50 Monster Clan members at the Sixth Level of the True Immortal Realm.

These Monster Clan members were bloodthirsty and cruel, soon making many Sword Abyss disciples who luckily came here feel pressure, and many were forced to withdraw.

And in higher places, some figures were also climbing.

At the same time, on the top of Imperial Jianshan, several figures appeared.

They had just arrived here and saw the top of Imperial Jianshan, which was very simple, with only a thatched cottage.

Outside the thatched cottage, there was a pile of stones with a sword inserted upside down.

Outside the house was a tea table, with a snow-clothed figure sitting there quietly tasting tea.

His hair was black and white, as if he had experienced vicissitudes, but still retained vigorous power.

Seeing that figure, Ji Qingxuan, who was the leader, hurriedly bowed, saying: "Disciple pays respects to the Abyss Master."

The middle-aged man in front was the Abyss Master of Sword Abyss, Yun Wumian.

The other three beside Ji Qingxuan also hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Good, come over and drink tea."

Abyss Master Yun Wumian had a calm expression like ethereal mist, and greeted the four to sit down with a rich and magnetic voice.

Several people were slightly flattered and came to the Abyss Master to sit down and drink tea in turn.

"I heard from Elder Li that you killed seven Ancient Demon commanders at the border, not bad."

Yun Wumian looked at Ji Qingxuan and commented.

Being worthy of the Abyss Master's "not bad", Ji Qingxuan put down his teacup, stood up slightly and cupped his hands, saying: "Abyss Master is too polite, the sword has not been sharpened yet, this time comprehending the Imperial Sword, I hope to polish it well again."

Yun Wumian nodded slightly, then his gaze lowered slightly, falling into the clouds and mist outside Imperial Jianshan, and at the same time, it seemed to be overlooking the countless figures climbing under the entire Imperial Jianshan.

The entire Imperial Jianshan was in his Immortal Country domain; with one thought of life and death, he knew everything inside.

After seeing several figures struggling to climb on the fifth and sixth layers, his eyes were like clouds and mist, revealing relief in his calmness.

As time passed, more and more disciples were defeated in Imperial Jianshan and were transmitted out of Imperial Jianshan, sitting on the plains and hills outside, some healing, some meditating and cultivating there.

On a hill, Gu Yan in a black sword suit saw that there were not many disciples staying in the first layer of Imperial Jianshan, and he knew that it had returned to calm inside.

At this time, he also raised his feet and flew toward the Imperial Jianshan.

And Yun Wumian on the mountaintop also noticed the proud little guy who finally took action.

A curve appeared at the corners of his lips; a born Sword Immortal Body, it was really not easy for Old Man Li to bring back such a treasure.

As his attention followed the young man to the first layer of Imperial Jianshan, the situation of the entire first layer appeared in his mind.

There were not many disciples staying here, and many Spirit Clan members were gathered in the central area, which meant the challenge difficulty would increase.

At the same time, his mind also surfaced a quiet place far from the central area, where several figures were gathered in front of the cliff valley.

"Hmm?"

Yun Wumian saw the scene there, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
