Chapter 742

Li Hao estimated the time; since coming to the five-path Origin City, five years had passed, plus the over half a year on the Heavenly Dao Bridge, it was almost six years.

There was only a little over a year left until the Southern Region Battle.

He had originally thought that he would stay in the five-path Origin City for at most a year or two, but he had not expected that one cultivation contemplation would take a year.

"I don't know if Gu Yan and the others have entered, and whether it is easy to capture Great Dao Origin on the Heavenly Dao Bridge now."

Li Hao thought to himself. He had originally intended to reserve some time to find the Dream Master to discuss the Dao of Painting, but now it seemed it was too late.

For the remaining time, Li Hao intended to take another look at the Space-Time Origin City.

"Hao Tian, this is our Origin Divine Ye Zi. Keep it safe."

Knowing Li Hao was leaving, the Gold Dao Origin Divine Tree did not keep him, but handed five Origin Ye Zi of the Divine Tree to Li Hao.

"In a critical moment, you can summon our Dao-thought incarnations to block disasters for you. They have power comparable to the tenth level of the Immortal Monarch Realm!"

The Gold Dao Origin Divine Tree said, his expression solemn.

Li Hao was slightly stunned, looking at the five Origin Divine Ye Zi with different divine luster, feeling a warm current in his heart.

Along this journey, besides seeing many landscapes, he had also met many people who made him feel moved.

"Then I will not be polite."

Li Hao said.

"You are our hope, why be polite?" The Gold Dao Origin Divine Tree laughed.

Li Hao took the five Origin Divine Ye Zi and put them away, then bowed and bid farewell.

The Gold Dao Origin Divine Tree did not keep him, only saying "until we meet again."

Li Hao flew across the five-path Origin City. Not long after, he arrived beside the Water Dao Origin Divine Tree and saw the figure of Helian Boya Biya Xuejian sitting cross-legged on the branches at the top of the tree crown, contemplating with eyes closed.

The Water Dao fluctuation aura on the other party was extremely intense. Li Hao's eyes were solemn; at this time, he had reached the peak of the fourth level of Water Dao Origin, and could faintly feel that Helian Boya Biya Xuejian seemed even stronger than him.

"Truly a terrifying figure."

Li Hao thought to himself.

He then detoured to the other Divine Trees of the Origin City. He searched with his gaze and saw some figures of geniuses from the Yan Chu Qin Xianchao under these Divine Trees; they were people he had seen in the Ancient Immortal Realm before, and some looked familiar.

Among them, there was no lack of Yan Chu royals, but they were all ranked after the top ten.

"Hmm?"

After circling once, Li Hao did not see the Jin Jin Fengling he had encountered earlier, and could not help but be somewhat puzzled.

But he soon thought of the reason. Since their last parting, four years had passed. The other party might have long since left the five-path Origin City and headed to the Space-Time Origin City to contemplate.

After all, with that person's cultivation, they belonged to the first tier among this batch of Southern Region Battle geniuses.

Wanting to go further and seizing the opportunity to contemplate the Space-Time Origin was clearly more worthwhile.

And coming to the five-path Origin City might just have been for that promised Divine Tree Dao Fruit.

Thinking of these things, Li Hao did not stay any longer and quietly left the five-path Origin City.

Following the stepping out of the spatial vortex outside the city, when Li Hao appeared again, he had returned to the Heavenly Dao Bridge.

However, the Heavenly Dao Bridge at this time was even more crowded than when Li Hao was there before.

Li Hao was somewhat surprised, but soon discovered that there were quite a few people among these figures who, like him, were in the True Immortal Realm.

He felt somewhat dazed in his heart; most were likely people from other layers arriving one after another to fight for Great Dao Origin here.

And that batch of top geniuses who had come directly to the ninth layer had long since disappeared.

Li Hao looked around; they were all unfamiliar faces.

He flew down quickly from the Heavenly Dao Bridge and swept his spiritual sense under the bridge, but did not see the figures of Gu Yan, Master Yue Xi, and others, nor did he see other figures from the Great Dream Nine Abyss Sect.

"Five-plus years; they should have passed the test of the Chaos Secret Realm,

and arrived here. Could it be that they were blocked outside the ninth layer?"

Li Hao's eyes flickered, thinking of Chu Chu Tianhuang's support back then, and immediately his figure moved, rushing out from the crowd and returning to the Origin Reception City.

Upon arriving in the city, Li Hao quickly found the courtyard where the old Grand Tutor of the Yan Chu Qin Xianchao was staying.

The old, mottled courtyard was extremely conspicuous. Li Hao arrived quickly and saw the old Grand Tutor in the courtyard, his demeanor leisurely, brewing tea and playing chess, but drinking and playing alone.

"Hmm?"

Sensing Li Hao's aura, the old Grand Tutor was stunned, looked up, and was surprised: "Why have you returned?"

"Senior, I would like to ask you for a favor," Li Hao hurriedly bowed and said.

The old Grand Tutor could not help but be happy, laughing: "Just say it. The old man is here to take care of you little fellows."

"Junior has some friends who might be in other layers of the Origin Secret Realm, but I cannot be sure. I don't know if Senior can help me investigate, or if you have seen them?" Li Hao said politely.

The old Grand Tutor laughed: "This little matter, I thought you were asking me to capture Great Dao Origin for you to go to the Space-Time Origin City!"

He released his hand from the chess piece and clapped his hands: "What do your friends look like?"

Li Hao immediately raised his hand, condensing with immortal power in the void, outlining the appearance of Gu Yan and the others, as well as Lin Lin Qingying.

The old Grand Tutor glanced at them, a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes, and said to Li Hao: "You kid, it seems your Great Dao has improved a lot in these few years."

Li Hao was shocked. He had just drawn casually without using any Great Dao Origin; could this even be felt?

"Improvement is a good thing; why be nervous?" The old Grand Tutor could not help but laugh, then said: "I have an impression of these few you mentioned. They all have very good natural talent. If this Southern Region Battle were delayed by a few hundred years, perhaps they would all have hope of being promoted to the first tier."

"You have seen them?"

Li Hao was stunned, let out a breath, and said: "I don't know where they are?"

"They have all gone to the Heavenly Dao Bridge. Which Origin City they chose, I do not know," the old Grand Tutor shook his head and said.

Li Hao was stunned, not expecting Gu Yan and the others to have already gone to the Origin City.

But he hadn't seen them in the five-path Origin City; could it be the Space-Time Origin City? Or Form and Control? Or the most ordinary Chaos Origin City?

However, Gu Yan's Sword Dao talent was top-notch; choosing to go to the Chaos Origin City seemed very normal.

After all, the Sword Dao was in the Chaos Origin City.

And the Great Dao Origin of the Chaos Origin City was also very easy to capture; just detaining a Great Dao Origin would lead one to the Chaos Origin City.

"Many thanks, Senior," Li Hao hurriedly thanked him and put away the immortal power portrait before him.

"Are you planning to go out to meet them? Are they your people? Every second in this Origin Secret Realm is extremely precious, and there is not much time left."

The old Grand Tutor said.

Li Hao nodded and said: "Junior will take his leave first."

"Go."

The old Grand Tutor waved his hand, not keeping or delaying Li Hao, but just as Li Hao was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and said: "Wait, you kid, when you first came over, did you move one of my chess pieces?"

Li Hao was stunned, turned back and said: "I saw it and my hands were itchy; I couldn't help it."

"It really was you kid!"

Upon hearing this, the old Grand Tutor's eyes suddenly brightened, but then he revealed a look of regret and said: "If time weren't precious, I would have kept you here to play a game. Since coming here, I haven't played against Yuan for a long time, and I can't even find a decent opponent."

"Are you talking about the old Senior Yuan Yuan Xinggang?" Li Hao asked.

"You know him too? Oh right, what am I saying, you are from the Yan Chu Qin Xianchao, how could you not know him? Have you played against each other?" The old Grand Tutor suddenly became interested, full of curiosity.

Li Hao shook his head and said: "I haven't had the chance yet."

The old Grand Tutor was somewhat regretful and said: "You are young, this chess

skill..."

He seemed to want to say something, but suddenly realized, patted his forehead: "You go quickly, don't delay here."

Seeing this, Li Hao bowed and bid farewell, then flew out of the courtyard like a teleportation, returning to the Heavenly Dao Bridge.

Since Gu Yan and the others had already entered the Origin City, Li Hao did not need to keep the Great Dao Origin in his hand.

He arrived at the Heavenly Dao Bridge and saw immortal arts constantly bombarding the bridge, which was extremely crowded, and quite a few people were gathered outside the bridge, all waiting to get on.

Those on the bridge could not hold on for long and went under the bridge to recuperate.

"This Nine Sequences Great Dao Origin is too hard to capture. Is it only possible to go to the Chaos Origin City?"

"I have only been here for half a year; I still want to try again. If I can comprehend the Nine Sequences Great Dao, as long as I cross the threshold, I can replace a Nine-Flower Immortal Seal!"

Under the bridge, many people were discussing, their brows full of sorrow.

Others simply sat cross-legged outside the Heavenly Dao Bridge to cultivate; the Great Dao Origin flowing here was also a holy land for cultivation far superior to the outside world.

Li Hao paused slightly, but could not hold back, directly using the fourth level of Space Origin to tear through the void and fly onto the bridge.

"Why isn't that person queuing?"

"Too arrogant, wait until he comes down to deal with him!"

Those waiting to get on the bridge saw Li Hao's actions and were as if enraged, looks of anger appearing on their faces.

But soon, the anger on their faces turned into shock.

"Why are there no immortal arts attacking him?"

"There seem to be no immortal arts attacking him in his surroundings!"

"There seems to be the aura of the Space Great Dao in his Dao Domain. Which genius is this?!"

Under the bridge, there was a sudden uproar, and everyone was shocked.

Mastering Space Origin in the True Immortal Realm was absolutely rare, and being able to walk safely on the bridge; they had only heard that those Nine-Flower Immortal Seal geniuses who had been here from the beginning could do it.

While everyone was shocked and discussing, Li Hao did not delay. Most of these True Immortal Realm people around him had ordinary backgrounds, and selling Great Dao Origin to them was a waste of time. He directly took out a Space Origin, using it to draw out the passage to the Space-Time Origin City.

As for the remaining Great Dao Origin, Li Hao intended to refine it.

Besides being used as a key to go to the Origin City, this Great Dao Origin could also be absorbed to increase the spirituality of the Great Dao and improve his own comprehension of the Great Dao.

Soon, Li Hao's figure was absorbed by the Space-Time Origin City passage and disappeared from the Heavenly Dao Bridge.

Seeing this scene under the bridge, everyone widened their eyes in shock. That guy at the ninth level of the True Immortal Realm had actually captured Great Dao Origin as soon as he got on the bridge, and the aura when that passage opened, as if space were splitting, was clearly the Space-Time Origin

City that countless people dreamed of!

"Who is that? Ninth level of the True Immortal Realm, did I see that right?"

"This Southern Region Battle seems to be producing an incredible monster!"

"We will know when the great battle comes. Actually being able to go to the Space-Time Origin City, but he went too late. I heard earlier that others in the True Immortal Realm also went to the Space-Time Origin City, but they went early and are almost finished now!"

Space-Time Origin City.

Just as Li Hao arrived here, during the passage transmission, he saw the appearance of the entire Origin City; it was actually a twin city.

One half of the city's sky was seven-colored misty flowing light, divine rays filling the sky, carrying dreamlike colors.

The other side was silver-gray, flowing with deep dark silver starlight, as if it were a mercury vortex.

"Time and space are separated here."

Li Hao's eyes flickered, and he could feel the different auras emitted by this twin city. At this time, he landed, happening to fall on the dividing line in the center of the twin city, where there was a square, with Time on the left and Space on the right.

The square was empty, quiet. Li Hao glanced at it and took the lead in flying toward the Time City on the left.

As Li Hao expected, in this Time City, he saw quite a few figures surrounding a towering Divine Tree.

This Divine Tree was surrounded by seven-colored precious light, majestic as if reaching the sky, and on its leaves seemed to flow crystal-clear fragments of time, flashing and disappearing.

In those flashing and disappearing images, there were occasionally the ferocious figures of Ancient Demons, as well as the backs of majestic human Great Emperors.

There were also millions of Immortal God armies charging in the True World, as well as raging fires and battle flags filling the sky.

There was also a majestic giant mountain, and True World races with different faces and skin colors looking up at the foot of the giant mountain, and so on.

Li Hao only swept his spiritual sense over it and felt a bit shocked. In this Space-Time Origin City, even if one didn't cultivate here, just by watching the leaves of this Time Origin Divine Tree, one could see countless buried fragments of time from the past!

In front of the Time Origin Divine Tree, there were figures sitting cross-legged. Li Hao swept his gaze roughly and saw twenty or thirty people.

Among them, he saw many familiar faces.

Chu Chu Tianhuang, and the royal princess who had entangled with him earlier, Chu Chu Yueli.

In addition, Li Hao also saw the figure of Xing Lan.

He hadn't expected her to come to the Space-Time Origin City too.

Besides these, what surprised Li Hao the most was that he actually saw Master Yue Xi. She was also sitting cross-legged outside the Time Origin Divine Tree, in a snow-white long robe, sitting like a Moon Palace fairy, cold and transcendent.

Li Hao hadn't expected Master Yue Xi to be able to come to the Space-Time Origin City. On the Heavenly Dao Bridge, the battle for Space-Time Origin was so fierce; he didn't know if she

had some special method, or if her luck was so good that Space-Time Origin just happened to appear before her eyes, and she had managed to catch it.

"Coming to the Space-Time Origin City, I guess they all came to contemplate Time Origin. Although Space is strong, unless Fate appears, Time is the Supreme!"

Li Hao thought to himself.

He hadn't looked at the Space Origin Divine Tree on the other side, but he could imagine that it was likely relatively deserted there.

Besides faces like Chu Chu Tianhuang and Master Yue Xi, Li Hao also saw some people he had sold Space-Time Origin to earlier to get here; they were all people from other Immortal Dynasties whose combat power was close to Chu Chu Tianhuang's.

Li Hao landed and walked toward the Time Origin Divine Tree.

The precious light around the Time Origin Divine Tree was like a natural barrier, protecting itself, just like the other Divine Trees; when the spiritual explosion occurred, the barrier would disappear, allowing cultivators to climb.

At this time, there were already seven or eight figures on the Divine Tree, on branches of different heights.

Li Hao swept his gaze, estimating that there were only a few months left until the next spiritual explosion.

He was not in a hurry and wandered around the vicinity.

Everyone else was immersed in contemplation, their Dao Domains isolated, and no one noticed him.

Li Hao subsequently went to look at the Space Origin Divine Tree, finding only three people; it was indeed extremely deserted.

"The Space Divine Tree's presence has been squeezed out by Time."

Li Hao sighed in his heart, shook his head, and turned back to the Time Divine Tree.

Having to wait for several months, he had nothing to do, so he unfolded his Dao Domain outside the Divine Tree and began to paint carefully inside.
