Chapter 689: Ancient Immortal Realm

Li Hao saw this and quickly gave him a look, signaling him not to be so polite, otherwise it would inevitably attract attention.

But the sharp-eyed Yue Xi noticed Lin Yufeng and was stunned for a moment.

She still remembered that the other party was originally Li Hao's "gift." Old Man Li wanted to recruit Li Hao, so he broke the rules and agreed to bring the other party to the Great Dream Daming Jiuyuan. And now... those who could gather here were all monsters of each Abyss, either participating in the Southern Territory Battle or going to the Yan and Chu Immortal Court border to kill enemies.

"Who is this?"

Murong Qingwu saw Lin Yufeng approaching, her eyes puzzled.

She could see the other party's realm, only the Second Realm of the True Immortal, but he had a sharp feeling, seemingly not an ordinary person.

At this time, Li Hao also observed that Lin Yufeng's cultivation had broken through to the True Immortal, and it was the Second Realm of the True Immortal. It seemed the foundation of a Heaven-level sect was indeed extraordinary. In just two years, it could allow the other party to break through the Supreme and become a True Immortal in one step.

"How many flower Immortal Seals did you condense?"

Li Hao asked via sound transmission.

Lin Yufeng responded respectfully: "Barely three flowers."

Li Hao was a bit surprised and nodded slightly. Three-flower Immortal Seals were barely the requirement for an Immortal Emperor's named disciple.

Hearing Murong Qingwu's inquiry, Tao Chunfeng, who was chatting with Li Tiemu, was full of smiles and grinned:

"He is the prodigy of my Spear Abyss, Lin Yufeng. Although his soul life has exceeded three thousand years and he missed the Southern Territory Battle, his progress speed is absolutely top-tier. In the next hundred years, no, in the next sixty years, you will all know his name!"

Hearing this elder's confident and proud look, Ji Qingxuan and the others also turned their eyes to observe this young man.

The interest in the eyes of Gu Yan and Murong Qingwu greatly diminished. Three thousand years of soul life was still too early for them. Even if the other party became famous in ten years, they wouldn't be envious. After all, when they reached three thousand years of soul life, they would definitely be even more dazzling.

Yue Xi, however, stared at Li Hao in a daze. She knew Lin Yufeng's attitude toward Li Hao back then, treating him as a master and servant. Now, the other party could actually get such high praise from the Spear Abyss elder. Is he a prodigy?

Li Tiemu heard Tao Chunfeng's words and was also surprised. He squinted his eyes to look carefully before remembering who Lin Yufeng was, and couldn't help but show surprise on his face:

"Isn't this..."

He looked at Tao Chunfeng.

Tao Chunfeng laughed loudly: "Speaking of which, I have to thank you for the treasure you sent over. You also have times when you misjudge, haha."

Li Tiemu was stunned, turned to look at Li Hao. Back then, he didn't say that kid could have such high talent.

Moreover, such a monster couldn't have been mediocre before, willing to live under others.

"Although Yufeng's cultivation is a bit weak, with the cultivation of my Spear Abyss, in time, when his cultivation realm catches up, he will inevitably become famous in the same realm."

Tao Chunfeng smiled lightly. Mentioning Lin Yufeng, he couldn't help but feel happy. Who could have thought that the disciple he accepted reluctantly, relying on the five catties of good wine Li Tiemu stuffed, was a monster, holding the long-lost Ten Great Immortal Arts: Thunder Roar.

Relying on this Immortal Art, plus Lin Yufeng's own other abilities, he could contend with the Eighth Realm of the True Immortal with the Second Realm of the True Immortal. This time, he was brought as a "special recruit," and he tried his best to fight for this opportunity for Lin Yufeng.

He believed that as long as he could go to the Yan and Chu border to temper for a while, cooperate with the sect's foundation, and let Lin Yufeng's cultivation improve, he would soon be able to shine on the battlefield.

"You kid..."

Li Tiemu looked at Li Hao and smiled bitterly: "You made me lose five catties of good wine for nothing."

Li Hao was helpless. Who told you not to even look at Lin Yufeng properly back then? If you had tested him properly, you would have inevitably seen that Lin Yufeng's talent was not bad.

In a barren and closed place like the Heavens, being able to cultivate to the Supreme was enough to see his comprehension.

Plus contemplating the Immortal Emperor's cultivation method, he had laid some foundation, and it was a top-tier foundation.

At this time, after everyone gathered, on the towering mountain top before the square, a dreamlike voice drifted over:

"The Daming Jiuyuan disciples have all arrived, right? You are all the hope of my Great Dream Daming Jiuyuan. The burden you carry this time is very heavy, concerning the sect and yourselves. The sect will do its best to cultivate you, pouring the best cultivation resources, opportunities, and connections into you."

"You only need to move forward, defeat the enemy, kill the enemy, and survive!"

"No matter what happens, the sect will stand behind you and advance and retreat with you."

Hearing that ethereal and gentle voice, everyone in the square was solemn. The voice revealed love, compassion, and the gentleness of desolation.

It was as if an old mother was looking down at her children from the clouds.

The elders present were also solemn.

The Great Dream Daming Jiuyuan had suffered trauma. One hundred thousand years had passed, and some missions had long been engraved in the bones of many people.

"Set off. Those participating in the Southern Territory Battle, the Imperial Clan of the Yan and Chu Immortal Court is already waiting for you. That is the first pass you must pass."

That gentle voice said.

A stream of colorful light suddenly drifted from the void, then drew the trajectory of falling leaves, drawing a winding crack from the void.

Inside that crack was a deep space teleportation channel.

Li Hao's eyes were solemn. Just this hand, the control of Space Dao Origin was far beyond his own.

The Abyss Master was an Immortal King. This Great Da Da Meng Zhu, I fear, was a terrifying existence even among Immortal Kings.

As the Great Da Da Meng Zhu's voice fell, Li Tiemu, Zhou Qingyun, and others all looked at their disciples.

"Go."

Li Tiemu said softly. He was going to lead the way for Li Hao and the others.

Ji Qingxuan said calmly: "Several Junior Brothers and Sisters, the meeting was hasty, Senior Brother didn't prepare any gifts for you. Here are some Immortal Stones, you take them."

After speaking, he raised his hand and flicked out four bags.

There was a small storage space in the bag, but it was far from the Heaven and Earth space, convenient for transferring some medium and large items.

Li Hao, Yue Xi, Gu Yan, Murong Qingwu, and others all caught them. Murong Qingwu immediately shook her head and said: "Senior Brother, this won't do. It's fine if you give it to them, but you already gave me a gift when I became an apprentice."

"That time was that time, this time is this time."

Ji Qingxuan smiled and said: "Take it. You might not have it even if you want it later."

Murong Qingwu's eyes changed slightly, and she didn't push it anymore, saying: "Senior Brother, you must also be careful at the border, absolutely nothing can happen!"

Li Hao saw this and also put away the Immortal Stones in his hand. He had cultivated to the Third Realm of the True Immortal, and the Immortal Stones in his hand were indeed almost used up.

"Thank you, Senior Brother."

Li Hao said.

Yue Xi and Gu Yan also put them away and thanked him together.

"I prepared four Cicada Armors for you. They are only True Treasures. If you overlap them with your disciple robes, they can provide a little protection."

Lu Wuchen also raised his hand and sent out four white Cicada Armors, extremely small, worn inside the inner shirt.

Li Hao didn't expect this Second Senior Brother to have such thoughts, cold outside but warm inside, seemingly cold, but his mind was delicate.

"I have nothing to give you. I'm not as rich as Senior Brother, so I'll give you two thousand Immortal Stones each."

Wei Hongye smiled lightly, taking out a red brocade bag from her hand, clearly a gift prepared long ago, not something taken out to make up the numbers.

The four took them and thanked her. "You must also be careful at the border."

Murong Qingwu exhorted again and again.

Li Tiemu looked at Ji Qingxuan and others and said: "I will send them first, then come to find you."

Then, together with other elders, he led their respective disciples and stepped into the teleportation channel drawn by the colorful light.

Before leaving, Lin Yufeng and Li Hao transmitted to each other to take care.

There was an adsorption force in the space channel, sucking Li Hao and the others toward a certain place ahead.

Li Tiemu and other elders were clearly very experienced, covering all the disciples and flying at full speed in this space channel.

Three hours later, with Li Tiemu's shout of "Arrived," the void and chaotic space channel before them suddenly disappeared. Like a train track reaching its end, countless rays of light suddenly pierced in, and countless scenes flooded in.

When Li Hao's vision adapted, he saw they were on a towering "continent."

That's right, rather than a square, it was more like a continent.

No mistake in the content!

Boundless, but the ground was paved with huge bricks and tiles, neat and tidy. Every ten miles around, there was a towering ancient and desolate giant pillar.

What was carved on the pillar was not a dragon or phoenix. In the Ancient Immortal Court of the True Realm, dragons and phoenixes were livestock tamed by the Imperial Clan and could not become totems.

And what was carved on the giant pillar was a tripod, a huge tripod. On the tripod were ancient characters, which were the texts of sacrificing to heaven.

In the primordial era of the True Realm, Ancient Immortals wanted to communicate with the Heavenly Dao, so they used this text to sacrifice to heaven.

Around the giant tripod were figures circling, cheering with their hands raised, which were the emperors of the Yan and Chu Immortal Court through the ages.

At this time, at the end of this endless "continent," there were towering giant halls looming.

While Li Hao and others were observing, they soon found that besides them, there were others here, and the number was not small.

In the distant sky, a crack opened following them, and three giant swords rushed out from inside, spanning the firmament.

Li Hao saw the familiar appearance of the giant sword and immediately thought of the Ten Thousand Mountain Sword Tower in Buddha-Slaying City.

"It's them."

Li Tiemu's eyes narrowed slightly. In the Yan and Chu Immortal Court, the Ten Thousand Mountain Sword Tower collected more than 80% of sword cultivators, and the remaining sword cultivators were diverted to other major sects. Their Sword Abyss mainly cultivated swords. Since the rise of the Ten Thousand Mountain Sword Tower, their days had been difficult, and the number of disciples had been gradually decreasing.

This time, being able to recruit Li Hao, Gu Yan, and the three of them, for Li Tiemu, was already an iron tree blooming, rare in a thousand years.

Yue Xi's eyes condensed, and her face had a bit of coldness.

"It seems that all the Heaven Sects of the Yan and Chu Immortal Court have come, and those Earth Sects..."

Murong Qingwu released her spiritual sense, covering a thousand miles, seeing the scene around her clearly.

Besides them, there were disciples of other sects everywhere.

"That's right, there should be nearly twenty thousand people here!"

Li Tiemu nodded, withdrew his gaze from the three giant swords of the Ten Thousand Mountain Sword Tower, and said:

"The distribution of spots for disciples that can be recommended by each sect is limited. The Ten Thousand Mountain Sword Tower and the other four Heaven One Sects each have one thousand spots."

"They add up to five thousand, while the Heaven Two Sect has five hundred spots, the Heaven Three Sect two hundred, and the Heaven Four Sect one hundred. Therefore, our Daming Jiuyuan gathered together only have one hundred people."

Hearing his words, Li Hao and Yue Xi looked around and found that the disciples who came here were indeed exactly one hundred.

Among them, their Sword Abyss had ten.

"The gap between Heaven Four and Heaven One Sect is actually ten times..." Yue Xi's eyes moved slightly, and suddenly a bit of fighting spirit appeared in her eyes, wanting to become famous in this Southern Territory, win glory for the sect, and strive to surpass that Ten Thousand Mountain Sword Tower.

"As for the Earth Sect, the Earth One Sect only has fifty spots, the Earth Two Sect 20, the Earth Three Sect only 10, and the Earth Four Sect is even more pitiful, only able to recommend two, usually the Sect Master's personal disciples."

Li Tiemu sighed lightly: "This is one of the benefits of sect ranking. Recommending one thousand people, they can always kill out of some encirclement. At worst, just by brushing their faces, they can also strike out the sect's momentum and reputation in a great battle like the Southern Territory Battle, then snowball, attracting more disciples to go."

Li Hao and others were silent, none of them spoke.

At this time, not long after they arrived here to wait, nine dragon carriages drove from the Immortal Palace in front of the square. Each dragon carriage was pulled by three Ancestral Dragons, looking like they were swallowing mountains and rivers, with full might.

"Please move to the Ancient Immortal Realm and accept the trial test."

An indifferent voice sounded, carrying disdain and majesty, as if looking down on everything, extremely light, but every word fell into everyone's ears like thunder.

"Is this the Yan and Chu Great Emperor?"

Yue Xi's face changed slightly, and she couldn't help but ask.

Li Tiemu shook his head slightly: "This is the Third Prince, Chu Xiangtian. His realm is on par with mine, and his strength... might not be worse than mine."

Hearing his words, several people were stunned. They didn't expect that just a prince would have such shocking might. What kind of person must that Yan and Chu Emperor be?

As the voice of that Third Prince Chu Xiangtian fell, soon, a secret realm channel appeared above everyone's heads.

"Ancient Immortal Realm? Is the trial this time so difficult?"

"After tens of thousands of years, the Yan and Chu Imperial Clan actually took out the Ancient Immortal Realm for trial again. I don't know how many barren domains we have to pass this time to count as passing."

Many forces gathered in the square were discussing, and many expressions became solemn.

"What is the Ancient Immortal Realm?"

Murong Qingwu also couldn't help but ask curiously.

Li Tiemu's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "The Ancient Immortal Realm is the place where the Ancient Immortals of the primordial era cultivated. The environment inside is harsh, and there are chaotic Great Dao powers everywhere. There are forty-nine barren domains inside. I heard that even Immortal Kings cannot reach the fortieth barren domain!"

"So scary?"

Murong Qingwu was stunned.

Li Hao and Yue Xi also had solemn expressions.

Gu Yan, who had always been cold and calm, suddenly had light blooming in his eyes, staring closely at the secret realm channel.

At this time, in the center of the nine dragon carriages, the secret realm opened, and the five major Heaven One Sect forces in the front stepped in first.

As everyone rushed, Li Tiemu also led Li Hao and others to enter.

Just after entering the secret realm, Li Hao saw a world of thunder and lightning, wild and ancient.

There were no stars or moons in the void, but scarlet fog covered half the sky. The other half was ink-like dark clouds, pitch black, with only lightning flashing intensely, reflecting the clouds in silver and black.

And on the ground, it was as if no grass grew, and it was scarlet soil emitting fog.

The most eye-catching was a massive black tablet like a mountain in front.

Seeing that black tablet, Li Hao felt it was somewhat similar to the Heaven Tablet on the Heaven Battlefield in the Heaven world.
