Chapter 814: True Monarch General Hao Tian

"But you are already..."

Li Hao felt sad in his heart, his voice hoarse, only thinking the other party was coaxing him.

Ying Ying Xiaoxiao saw Li Hao's thoughts, her eyes even gentler, and the delicate skin under her eyelids was also slowly shattering into powder. Crystalline light powder flowed backward and flew up, disappearing into the air.

"This reincarnation body of mine, accompanying you from the human world to here, is my favorite life."

Ying Ying Xiaoxiao said softly: "Do you still remember what I said when we first met?"

Li Hao's mind surfaced the first time they met, at the tea stall by the road, that girl like a cool breeze in summer, walking out from behind the small stall, looking at him generously:

"My name is Ying Ying Xiaoxiao, Ying for the Ying born from calamity, Ying Xiaoxiao for the carefree Ying Xiaoxiao."

At the time, it was just a frivolous joke; now, it seemed to be a verification of fate.

Responding to today's calamity, reincarnating through time and space.

"Then how can I see you again?"

Li Hao wanted to hold her, but didn't dare to touch, fearing it would make her annihilate faster.

"Northern Region, Su Clan... there is my second life, only this body suffered calamity and died, that life has not yet awakened..."

Ying Ying Xiaoxiao's divine sense voice was soft, weak, her eyes full of gentleness and satisfaction.

Northern Territory, Su Clan... Li Hao firmly etched these two names into his mind and hurriedly asked, "Can I find you if I go to the Su Clan? What is your name?"

"If you go... you will know."

Ying Ying Xiaoxiao whispered, her eyes turning, slowly saying: "... Can you paint a picture for me?"

Li Hao's heart shook, his eye sockets a bit red, saying: "I can!"

"Now?"

"Now!"

He raised his hand, immortal power condensing at his fingertips, looking at the embers that were gradually shattering and annihilating, even the pupils of her eyes were spotting and disappearing. He felt a sense of pain in his heart.

But he still gritted his teeth, painting with all his might.

He wasn't painting the shattering appearance before him, but the spirited appearance after reversing time and space.

Painting the moment the other party first walked out of the tea stall, that hem of her clothes rippling in the summer wind.

Painting the peerless posture of the other party when she descended, with seven colors flying.

In the void, the clouds stirred, time and space rotated, and that mottled figure in his memory constantly solidified in front of his eyes, gradually, as if jumping out of the years, standing in front of him.

And the girl's eyes in front of him, the last trace of pupils also gradually annihilated and shattered, only that soft divine sense transmitted:

"I knew it... your painting is the best..."

Her voice gradually dissipated, her flying hair, along with her divine sense, quickly collapsed and dissipated.

A large piece remained on her forehead, but along with the disappearance of her eyes, it quickly disintegrated like fly ash.

"Promise me, live on..."

The divine sense echoed in the wind, dissipating like flowing light.

Li Hao stood stunned in place, standing blankly. When all the light and shadow in front of him disappeared, that moment of time seemed silent.

The world seemed to fall into a huge void, and everything outside and around him lost its radiance, all dimming and shattering.

Only he stood in the black tower's pitch-black divine radiance, like a wooden stake, standing blankly here for a thousand years.

For a long time, for a long time, the youth's fist clenched bit by bit, golden divine blood overflowing from his palm, dripping down.

That painting floating in the air, that girl in the blue-green dress standing in the void, her eyes lowered, looking at him gently, as if gazing from another time and space.

Bursts of aura beyond the True Immortal Realm emanated from his entire body's apertures, rippling out from his pores. The Myriad Heavens Star Veins behind him surfaced again. This time, it extended larger and wider than before, spreading like a spider web, illuminating the starry sky.

His aura constantly climbed, and in the blink of an eye, he broke through that bottleneck, and a might belonging to the Immortal Monarch Realm scattered from his entire body, as if reborn.

【Painting Dao: Level Twelve】

【Painting Heart: True Meaning of Painting Dao】

Add points, Flesh Body Dao.

Flesh Body Level Twelve, comprehend the True Meaning of Flesh Body Dao!

What is True Meaning?

Virtual and real, true and false, all things are extensions of the Great Dao. Earth Dao can condense mountains, rivers, and all things—a grain of sand, a piece of stone, a mountain.

Water Dao is dew, a small river, a deep abyss, and the sea.

The True Meaning of Painting Dao is not color and pigment, not flashy beauty, but presenting that sincere origin within the years.

That is not something that can be achieved by technique, not something that can be achieved by decoration, but reaching deep into the soul!

Accompanied by the scattering of the Immortal Monarch Realm aura, Li Hao's entire body was transforming, and the Dao Source Immortal Seal on his forehead also emanated terrifying sword ringing at this moment.

In the void, Immortal Dao laws condensed, extending like chains. The Nine Sequences Great Dao all turned into nine thick silver locks, and the sword Dao law chain was even more like a sword mark, piercing through from the void, coiling around Li Hao's side.

Seeing this scene, Old Man Han's eyes moved slightly, but there was no smile in his eyes, only sighs and heartache.

And the Great Dream Clan outside were all revealing joy, not expecting Li Hao to actually break through at this critical moment, reaching the Immortal Monarch Realm!

In contrast, the Wind Spirit Clan and Hidden Sea Clan on the other side were stunned, their faces becoming ugly.

They didn't expect this youth to actually be involved to such an extent, that the broken Emperor Weapon of the Half-Step Emperor Monarch would not hesitate to kill through time and space to continue his life, and that the Dao Source Immortal Emperor in the Primitive True World would actually personally come forward.

This youth had not yet been sent to the Primitive True World, and the Great Emperor of the Primitive True World had already personally appeared in the True World to accept him. Such treatment had not even been received by those direct disciples of the Supreme.

"He has become an Immortal Monarch..."

"A hundred-year Immortal Monarch, this should be considered breaking the record, the youngest Immortal Monarch in history, right?"

On the mountain range, as the Supreme's Emperor Might converged and the Dao Source Immortal Emperor's dignity was also withdrawn, many figures who had been prostrate on the mountaintop were finally able to look up, observing the strange scene in the sky.

Then they saw the youth shrouded in the black tower's radiance actually undergoing transformation, his realm climbing, which was shocking.

"Immortal Monarch..."

Ghost Gui Lingyue's eyes were complex. She didn't expect that before the Southern Region battle had ended, the youth had already climbed to the Immortal Monarch Realm. If they fought again, she might not even be a match for a single finger of his.

Not far away, Shen Tian Wuji also saw this scene, but breaking through the realm was not a difficult thing for him. If he hadn't wanted to consolidate his foundation, he could have long since promoted to the Immortal Monarch Realm.

"Good, well done!"

Shen Tian Wuji muttered to himself, his eyes full of radiance. Although he had suffered a crushing defeat at the other party's hands earlier, at this moment, seeing the youth improve, he actually felt a sense of excitement for no reason, a strong expectation, expecting to fight again during each other's peak period, and also expecting the youth to be able to escape alive through this.

Everyone looked at the youth whose realm was climbing. With the other party's talent, breaking the True Immortal Realm shackles was no longer considered very rare.

They looked at the other Emperor Might figure on the clouds, not knowing how today's dispute would end.

The Supreme saw the change in Li Hao's aura, their eyes calm, without change.

True Immortal or Immortal Monarch, they were all dust in front of them, not even counting as ants. Only the Immortal King Realm could barely count as an ant, needing to be pressed to death!

As the aura gradually stabilized, Li Hao's eyes fell on the painting, but there was no joy, nor sorrow, only the calmness of an abyss, as if all joy and sorrow had nothing to do with him.

He raised his hand, gently putting away the painting, like holding the other party's slender hand.

And the girl was still looking at him gently, her eyes seeming to brim with a bit of shyness and joy. Putting away the painting, Li Hao looked outside the black tower. When he just broke through to the Immortal Monarch Realm, he had already felt what happened outside.

"Child, follow me to the Primitive True World and cultivate under my sect."

The Dao Source Immortal Emperor's voice sounded in his mind, with a trace of compassion in its calmness.

Li Hao's lips moved slightly, silent for a long time, before saying: "Thank you, Great Emperor, for your life-saving grace, but I want to go to a place first."

"Where?"

"Northern Region."

The Dao Source Immortal Emperor narrowed his eyes, many Great Dao traces and fate trajectories surfacing in his eyes.

He nodded slightly, saying: "Then I will wait for you in the Primitive True World."

After speaking, a ray of light flew out from his fingertips, sinking into Li Hao's body.

"This is the Domain Seal of the Primitive True World. As long as you activate it, you can come to the Primitive True World at any time."

Li Hao felt a vortex-like power circling in his body, soft yet mysterious, unable to be peered into in detail.

"This is the Mysterious Turtle Source Shell, which can cover your aura, cut off your life dust, and keep you safe! If the Source Shell shatters, I will appear. Although that Heavenly Emperor promised me not to hunt you down, you still shouldn't stay in the Southern Region for long."

Hearing these earnest words, Li Hao looked at the silver-white, frost-like treasure flying over, and was silent again.

He took the treasure, looked up, and looked at the Dao Source Immortal Emperor.

But he saw the other party's face was handsome and peerless, not dazzling at all, and a pair of eyes like a deep abyss, containing the vicissitudes of time, yet revealing a few traces of kindness.

Li Hao clenched the treasure, then slowly knelt down, kowtowing three times heavily in the air.

"This grace, I will remember for all eternity!"

The Dao Source Immortal Emperor did not stop him, letting Li Hao finish the three kowtows before nodding, then waving his hand. The void split open, and a straight passage extended out, leading to a distant place.

"Go."

The Dao Source Immortal Emperor said softly.

Li Hao looked up at that road, then turned his head, his gaze falling on the place where the girl had shattered and disappeared.

He looked deeply, his gaze shifting to Old Man Han in front of him, "Senior, let's go together."

Old Man Han saw Li Hao's thoughts, shaking his head: "It's fine. The Dao Source Immortal Emperor wants to take you as a disciple; he promised me he wouldn't let the Heavenly Emperor hurt me. Your sect friends are also fine, you don't need to worry."

Li Hao's gaze turned to the Great Dream Clan, then looked at the Great Dream Daming Jiuyuan on the ground, those familiar faces.

Master Yue Xi, Gu Yan... the two also looked at Li Hao, their eyes full of worry.

Li Hao withdrew his gaze, looking at the blue-clothed figure on the edge of the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain. Their eyes met, and a flash of pain crossed Li Hao's eyes before he turned his head.

He knew that with his current self, he had no qualifications to protect anyone.

"General Hao Tian..."

In the firmament, Wang Shanhe had already struggled free from the Immortal Guard Commander's domain. He looked blankly at Li Hao, his old face full of pain.

He knew that if the Dao Source Immortal Emperor hadn't come forward, Li Hao would have surely fallen.

The only disciple of Heavenly Emperor Lord Tianyang in this era, peerless in talent, yet he was powerless to protect him.

That battle back then was too tragic, with too much paid. If those two Emperor Weapons had been there, Li Hao wouldn't have suffered today's humiliation.

Li Hao looked at Old Wang, his gaze shifting to the Dao Source Immortal Emperor beside him. He bowed deeply, saying:

"Senior, can you protect the lives of these friends of mine?"

The Dao Source Immortal Emperor's expression was peaceful, saying: "You don't need to worry. With me here, the Supreme will not make things difficult for them."

Hearing his words, Li Hao felt relieved, bowing deeply again.

His gaze swept over the other contestants, swept over the Southern Region, swept over the mountaintop, and finally all withdrew, following the path opened for him by the Dao Source Immortal Emperor, walking slowly.

In the Southern Region, there was Old Feng, and others were here, but Li Hao knew that with his current self, being with them would only implicate them.

At this moment, he was all alone, empty and hollow, leaving from this Southern Region, as if walking out of that Divine General Mansion back then.

But at that time, there was Old Feng accompanying him.

Now, he only had the gentle eyes in his heart accompanying him, which was also the reason he went to pursue.

Countless gazes, from the various dynasties of the Southern Region, various Heavenly Sects, and great clans, all focused on the youth.

Having turned the Southern Region battle upside down, implicating two great clans in the top hundred to nearly fight to the death, and having two Great Emperors come forward—it could be said to be hard to find in a thousand years.

It was just that, being such a monster in the True Immortal Realm, he didn't know what it would be like in the Immortal Monarch Realm in the future.

"Master, it seems this time, you didn't get your wish..."

On the isolated peak, the old man holding the rod looked at the ending at this moment, but a smile surfaced in his eyes.

By the clouds, Xue Jian Xin and Ming Master Yue, looking at the youth who walked quietly past them, didn't expect that the Dao Source Immortal Emperor of the Primitive True World would actually come forward for Li Hao, actually paying attention to this place.

They entered the Primitive True World to study under the three Great Emperors, but now, that youth had snatched the qualification to study first.

"Hundred-year appointment..."

Ming Master Yue bit her lip slightly. At this moment, she felt a strong sense of urgency in her heart. If the other party also entered the Primitive True World, she truly had no confidence in the hundred-year battle.

But, to admit defeat just like that was absolutely impossible.

As a direct disciple of the Supreme, they were at the same starting line, and she was even leading the other party by several hundred years of soul longevity—how could she admit defeat?

On the ground, Chu Chu Tianhuang and others had complex expressions, looking at the youth's back, not knowing where he was going.

But with the Dao Source Immortal Emperor coming forward, there was no doubt that the other party would definitely have the opportunity to enter the Primitive True World.

Perhaps, they could meet again there.

"He survived, he actually survived..."

Chu Yuli looked blankly at that back, a bit dazed, but immediately after, her face revealed joy.

The other party didn't die. If her marriage contract with him was realized, with the other party's status, she would inevitably have great achievements in the Imperial Clan.

It was just that, where was the other party going now?

Doubt appeared in her eyes. Looking at the situation, the other party didn't seem to choose to leave with the Dao Source Immortal Emperor.

Following the passage leading to the deep starry sky, Li Hao walked all the way. Suddenly, his footsteps paused slightly, his gaze sweeping toward a figure beside the passage.

That figure had a unique temperament, emanating nobility, with a General Star in the distant sky above their head, radiance descending, appearing noble and impossible to look directly at.

Imperial Clan, Emperor Ji Ming.

When Li Hao's gaze fell on the other party, Emperor Ji Ming's face turned cold, clenching his fists.

Not killing Li Hao today made him feel angry in his heart, especially that girl earlier, who defeated him in the same realm, which made him even harder to accept.
