Don’t assume your Immortal Lord rank lets you handle him effortlessly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke, yet turned to glance at Li Hao, as if about to say more, then fell silent—his eyes finally softened into a trace of regret before he turned and flew away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Li Hao chose this path, he would not take responsibility for him; after all, making choices is also a kind of skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming Yue immediately followed after him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Xin shook his head slightly. \"I’m fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he arrived atop the clouds, seeing the towering, seated figure—his eyes filled with shame as he bowed low:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, your disciple has disappointed you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It matters not.

Draw something new? His Dao heart had nearly shattered, his sword heart on the verge of breaking—he had even considered abandoning the ancient sword immortal ancestor’s soul buried deep in his bloodline. The power of the Emperor’s Path Sword Art still haunted his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, he had recovered.

No True Immortal can stand against it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It feels as if any other True Immortal would be crushed by a single finger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not just that—even ordinary Immortal Lords can easily slay True Immortal prodigies. How many prodigies in this world can fight against an Immortal Lord?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"True. Crossing major realms is nearly impossible unless one is an extreme anomaly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s not the worst part—the most terrifying thing is the immortal weapon in his hand. An Immortal Lord wielding a top-tier immortal weapon? I suspect he could even fight an ordinary Immortal Lord of Sixth or Seventh Layer—and possibly kill them!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Possible. After all, prodigies who come to the Southern Region’s contest naturally crush others in their own realm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across the immortal courts and cities of the Southern Region, countless people were stunned, murmuring in shock. Many elder sages from hidden celestial realms slapped their knees and sighed bitterly, their resentment growing toward the Supreme who sat alone in heaven and earth, overlooking all mortals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could such an anomaly perish? The ancient demonic calamity looms ever closer—if the ten ancient demon clans unite, the True Realm will face another great purification!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it! Using realm to bully others—how could such a scoundrel exist!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the mountain peak, Shen Wujie clenched his fists, teeth gritted, eyes blazing with fury—he longed to rush forward and aid Li Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as he moved to act, his lifelong companion, Qing Bo, blocked him, saying this matter was beyond the Shen Clan’s interference—otherwise, great trouble would follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Shen Wujie had lost to Li Hao, he bore him no hatred; on the contrary, seeing this prodigy who had defeated him now facing such humiliation filled him with righteous rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet at this moment, he also felt the weakness of a True Immortal—if he were an Immortal Lord himself, he could step forward for Li Hao and crush these bastards beneath his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the same realm, he was certain he would not lose to these scoundrels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a pity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Gui Lingshuang of the Ghost Clan’s dark, deep eyes flickered with a trace of sorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside her, Gui Lingyue looked furious; though she held no particular fondness for Li Hao, this was an unfair fight. BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Emperor’s Altar, Jin Fengling erupted in golden divine light—beyond his immortal energy, he unleashed the Golden Dao’s primordial force, unfolding his Eternal Dao Domain into a radiant, golden Eternal Golden Domain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The full power of Golden Dao Primordial Force, Fifth Layer, was now revealed—he did not wish others to think he relied solely on his immortal weapon; he wanted the people of the Southern Region to witness his own strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Golden Dao Primordial Force manifested, other Immortal Lord contestants atop the mountain narrowed their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden Dao Primordial Force Fifth Layer—this was no small feat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, reaching Sixth Layer primordial force like the Supreme’s direct disciple, while still a True Immortal, was already an act against heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, primordial force level must be judged by how it is wielded—Li Hao had previously used only Fourth Layer Sword Dao and shattered Jian Xin’s Sixth Layer Sword Dao with the Emperor’s Path Sword Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come into my Demon Sword—join the ancient demonic spirits!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Fengling sneered, his killing intent surging—he stepped forward, activating the pinnacle body technique: Ten Directions Piercing Void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the Jin Clan’s top body technique, requiring Space Primordial Force Fourth Layer to master—he had perfected it. Around him, space blurred, nine paths seemingly converging toward Li Hao, making it impossible to sense or predict from which direction the strike would come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These nine positions required extraordinary perception to even faintly sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>THUD!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, he appeared before Li Hao—so fast it was unbelievable, causing countless eyes to shrink and many Immortal Lords to cry out in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Li Hao’s Nine Sequences Eternal Dao Domain activated—but it was breached immediately. The piercing Golden Dao Primordial Force, exceeding his own mastery, surged along the Golden Dao threads within his domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came a chilling sword qi, slicing through like a blade suspended above his head for a hundred thousand years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sword qi carried terrifying demonic might—as if countless ancient demons wailed, emitting waves that pierced the soul and shook the spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even those who had shattered their Primordial Spirit’s limit would momentarily lose focus before this sword, forged from the essence of countless ancient demonic souls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Hao lifted his gaze—its depth like the abyss of the ocean, utterly dark, devoid of light, filled only with overwhelming, blinding killing intent!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Draw your sword!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the space of heaven and earth, a sudden thunderous roar erupted—the Taowu Immortal Weapon, dormant and silent in the Emperor’s Palace for a hundred thousand years, now unleashed a fierce, ultimate aura of slaughter!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the blade’s surface, the ancient Taowu beast emerged—though in juvenile form, its posture was grotesque, radiating a terrifying, soul-shaking power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among all immortal weapons, Li Hao chose it because it was ferocious—even capable of killing its master!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Immortal energy—give it all to you. I only need—KILL!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Hao murmured coldly within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him, the Celestial Star Veins suddenly spread like a spiderweb, instantly extending across the entire Emperor’s Altar, as if illuminating it into a starry sky!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vast torrents of immortal energy surged from all directions, pouring through Li Hao’s palm into the Taowu Immortal Weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, deafening roars pierced the heavens, relentless, accompanied by overwhelming slaughter aura, slashing toward the demon sword now descending upon him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aowu, Master! With me here, no one can harm you!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Taowu Immortal Sword cried out in joy and excitement, flying forward—space tore like paper, instantly carving a black sword scar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one blade was a demon sword, the other was a ferocious sword—a sword of ultimate malevolence!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two blades clashed—the sword tip of a hundred thousand years ago met the sword tip of a hundred thousand years later. On the Emperor’s Altar, a sword resonance erupted, shaking the entire Southern Region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The echoes of ancient sounds, the tearing screams of shattered spacetime—made countless people feel as if their ears and spirits had been pierced through, a trembling deep within their very souls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A terrifying shockwave erupted from the center of the altar—both Eternal Dao Domains were ripped open by horrific fissures, yet both strained desperately to close them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Fengling’s body was thrown backward, his face turning pale with shock as he stared at the boy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Top-tier immortal weapon—the other side had one too, and it was not weaker than his Demon-Slaying Sword—in fact, it was even stronger by a third!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly, he recalled: the boy had inherited the Immortal Emperor’s legacy—obtaining such a weapon was not surprising after all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face darkened, cold intent flashing in his eyes—he had intended to crush him easily, never expecting such an unexpected turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his hand, grasping the void—every glowing speck within the embryonic Celestial Star Veins was drawn to him, channeled into his immortal weapon, ordered to engage the opponent’s weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demon sword absorbed immortal energy, shrieking sharply, immediately locking in combat with the Taowu—both swords clashed fiercely on the altar, unleashing terrifying sounds and astonishing power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had the sealing barrier not been forged by an Immortal King, it would have shattered long ago—even now, it rippled violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yaozhidao ， Xianqianjibianshishenwujidengdingjianzhenxianjingtianjiaojiaoshou ， Yezhishimianqiangzaifengzhenjiejieshang ， Zhuangchuyisilianyi ， Qililiangbuyaneryu 。\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let you experience the true power of an Immortal Lord!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Fengling raised his hand and unleashed the unique Immortal Lord realm Dao principles—his fifth-layer Gold Dao origin allowed him to condense his own Dao principle: the Golden Sea of Stars!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a mere gesture, the Dao principles flowed, and the void instantly turned golden, as countless golden dust particles emerged, like divine light scattered into crystalline powder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These particles shimmered with light, and these lights reflected and amplified each other, multiplying a millionfold until they coalesced into a brilliant golden ray that struck Jin Fengling’s body, turning him entirely golden, radiating divine light like a golden star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the light approached, he gripped it in his hand and hurled it downward toward Li Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if he had seized golden thunder and was about to strike down a mortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Taowu, locked in battle with the Blood Demon Sword, immediately spun back, trying to intercept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Blood Demon Sword erupted with full force, binding it and exhausting every ounce of strength to prevent interference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of this happened in an instant—yet at this very moment, Li Hao had already stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His movement was illusory; he had integrated the Water Dao, Fire Dao, and Form Dao origins into his Bodyless Void Technique, rendering himself intangible—though imperfect, it reached the pinnacle of movement arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, relying solely on movement to evade this strike was impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not intend to dodge—he stepped forward, then stepped again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They say \"half-step invincibility\" means self-defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be truly invincible, one must transcend seclusion and enter the world, then rise beyond it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, Li Hao abandoned defense for offense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very moment the light surged toward him, he extended his Eternal Dao Domain directly before his opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body was pierced by the light, instantly shattered, flesh and blood spraying, transforming into a cloud of crimson mist!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sight turned the faces of countless spectators on the mountaintop pale, leaving them speechless with horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the next instant, within a speck of mist that had flown to the edge of the Dao Domain, a force suddenly coalesced and unleashed the ultimate, terrifying Five Absolute Emperor Sword!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That single sword severed the void, striking at point-blank range against Jin Fengling’s chest, piercing through space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!
