Chapter 830

With just one sword strike, she defeated thirty-four noble prodigies!

On the battle stage, apart from the young man's figure, no one else was left standing!

Immortal bodies shattered, residual blood splattered; the young man stood indifferently. Such a scene left the many noble prodigies present deeply shocked, unable to speak for a moment.

Below the stage, the prodigies of the Jiang and Lin families were also stunned, never expecting that the young man could unleash such terrifying sword Qi and control such overbearing sword intent.

The Su family members were also stunned. Su Muqing, Su Wanqing, and Su Wanxue were all lost in a daze. Was all this real? The guy who followed Su Muqing around every moment, only wanting to curry favor with her to borrow the Su family's foundation, actually possessed such terrifying power?!

Although this power was nothing compared to theirs, it was an overwhelming, crushing force for someone at the First Realm of the Immortal Lord!

"Nine-Sequence Origin..."

Beside them, Su Qiyu, who was already at the perfected Tenth Realm of the Immortal Lord, was the first to come to his senses. He was startled; the young man was only at the First Realm of the Immortal Lord, yet he controlled the Nine-Sequence Origin, and his cultivation base was not low. There was no doubt... the other party was highly likely to also possess a Nine-Flower, Nine-Sequence Immortal Seal!

One must know that such an Immortal Seal was proof of supreme aptitude, worthy of being a personal disciple of an Emperor!

Such a person was a dazzling figure even in this talent-filled Northern Region, capable of standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the Su family's Four Little Phoenixes, and shoulder-to-shoulder with him!

Coupled with what Su Muqing had said earlier about the other party having only a short hundred-year soul lifespan... Su Qiyu's expression changed. He understood that his father would never make a hasty decision easily. Since the other party could stay in the Su family and pester Su Muqing, he must have received his father's permission. Now it seemed that his old man was his old man after all; it was they who had been short-sighted.

"What a powerful First Realm Immortal Lord!"

The two perfected Immortal Lord attendants beside Immortal King Tan were both shocked in their eyes, their expressions turning solemn.

He was worthy of being the guy who could sit with the Su family members.

On the battle stage, Li Hao looked around, the silver-white sword Qi in his hand dissipating. He raised his head slightly and asked:

"In this way, I can obtain the qualification to pluck the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus, right?"

The young man's voice broke the silence. Immortal King Tan came to his senses and nodded: "Yes!"

As he spoke, he put away the sealing array barrier.

Seeing this, Li Hao stepped out, but his feet did not land in the pool of blood ahead. Instead, the moment he stepped down, he teleported to the prayer mat below the stage, drifting over like a clear breeze, and sat down calmly and composedly.

At this time, the noble prodigies below the stage, who had been like wooden statues, finally came to their senses, immediately triggering an uproar of shock.

Countless gazes converged on Li Hao, looking at the young man in horror.

Defeating thirty-four prodigies with one sword strike, and looking at the other party's relaxed appearance, it seemed he hadn't even used his full strength!

Invincible in the same realm!

This was the true invincibility of the same realm, a posture of complete crushing!

"So strong, that guy is so powerful!"

"No wonder he dares to pursue Su Muqing. At the First Realm of the Immortal Lord, he has such terrifying might. I'm already at the Third Realm of the Immortal Lord, and I feel I might not have been able to withstand that sword strike just now!"

"This guy seems to be another top-tier monster. I wonder who is superior when the Four Little Phoenixes reach the same realm!"

"Where did this guy pop out from? I've never heard of him before. Looking at his methods, he probably already crushed his peers back in the True Immortal Realm!"

Many people discussed heatedly, their eyes shocked and solemn, not daring to underestimate Li Hao anymore.

These words fell into the ears of Su Muqing and the others. Su Muqing came to her senses, her expression shifting, and her brows furrowed tightly.

She had already experienced Li Hao's aptitude earlier, but these people didn't know that although Li Hao's aptitude was extremely high, his Dao heart was extremely low.

With such aptitude, he could have become a True Dragon himself, but now he was holed up in the Su family, playing chess and painting, not cultivating properly, and relying entirely on the Su family's foundation to soar.

"This guy..."

The hint of shock in Su Wanxue's eyes faded. Looking at Li Hao sitting not far away, her expression was solemn, and she no longer underestimated him.

No wonder her father had previously intended to have her and Sister Wanqing marry him; the latter's aptitude was indeed comparable to theirs.

Adding in the soul lifespan... they were inferior to the other party; even that Emperor's son was eclipsed!

"Your sword Dao is truly amazing. You also have a Nine-Flower, Nine-Sequence Immortal Seal, right?"

Su Wanqing sat beside Li Hao, looking at the young man who had returned, her eyes becoming a bit brighter. She whispered and asked.

Amazing... Li Hao shook his head slightly. To avoid being too high-profile, he didn't use the Five Absolutes Emperor Sword; that sword strike had at most only used thirty percent of his power.

Seeing Li Hao didn't speak, Su Wanqing just took it as Li Hao's tacit agreement. She immediately thought of Li Hao's earlier words. The other party... wanted to pluck the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus for her?

She glanced at the purple color on the peak behind the Sword Pool, and then suddenly thought of something. She looked at Su Muqing beside her, and her eyes suddenly became hesitant.

"You have obtained the qualification to pluck the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus now. If you give that Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus to Sister Muqing, she will definitely treat you better."

Su Wanqing sent a voice transmission to Li Hao. She didn't say it directly; otherwise, her instigating Li Hao to act would be felt differently by Su Muqing.

Li Hao realized the girl's thoughtfulness, his eyes calm as he said: "It's fine."

Su Wanqing was stunned, not knowing what Li Hao meant by "it's fine."

She looked at Li Hao and saw him staring quietly at Su Muqing just like before. She couldn't help but mock herself inwardly. That's right, there was no need for her to meddle; the other party would naturally give it to Sister Muqing.

She felt a bit lost in her heart, but upon detecting her own emotions, she quickly composed herself and dispelled the thought.

At this time, there was still heated discussion below the battle stage. Li Hao's performance had thoroughly made all the noble prodigies present remember him.

Everyone understood that after this battle, Li Hao would definitely become famous in the Gusu Emperor Star.

"You are so amazing."

Lin Jinrou was not far away and also sighed to Li Hao.

"You flatter me," Li Hao replied humbly.

Lin Jinrou smiled, light flickering in her eyes. The other party had such combat power with only a hundred-year soul lifespan. Truly speaking of aptitude, even her brother might not be his equal. Where did this monster pop out from?

She suddenly found it interesting in her heart. She wondered if her brother would feel nervous if this news reached him?

Since she was small, she had never seen anyone capable of competing with that brother. Now, it seemed that such a person had finally appeared.

On the other side, Jiang Huanhuan also sent a voice transmission to Li Hao, expressing her amazement and inviting Li Hao to the Jiang Mansion.

Li Hao politely declined via voice transmission. Jiang Huanhuan was not annoyed; since Li Hao wouldn't go, she would go to the Su family to find him.

In the crowd, someone took out a Soul Lifespan Mirror and secretly reflected Li Hao's figure.

Soon, Li Hao's soul lifespan appeared on the Soul Lifespan Mirror: 102 years!

Seeing this soul lifespan, the person's pupils contracted, and a stormy sea surged in his heart. The Su family's news was actually true!

A monster, absolutely a peerless monster!

On the battle stage, those defeated noble prodigies merged their primordial spirits into their shattered immortal bodies, repaired them bit by bit, and returned below the stage. The gazes they cast at Li Hao were all of fear and disbelief, yet no one dared to provoke him again.

Seeing that everyone was discussing and no one took the stage for a moment, Immortal King Tan couldn't help but urge them.

At this time, others realized that this Sword Pool Osmanthus Plucking was still ongoing.

Seeing that no one else had the intention to take the stage, Lin Jinrou smiled immediately, leaped onto the battle stage, and continued to complete her own invincible record.

Soon, people took the stage one after another, but they were all defeated by Lin Jinrou's sword.

Li Hao noticed that everyone who came here were sword Dao practitioners, and couldn't help but ask Su Wanqing.

Su Wanqing said: "Sword Pool Osmanthus Plucking, everyone who comes here are sword Dao prodigies from various noble families. Prodigies who specialize in other Great Daos didn't come; otherwise, the number of people would be far more than this."

Li Hao suddenly realized, and then looked at her and Su Wanxue. He didn't expect them to be sword users. Sure enough, the sword Dao was the most universal weapon.

As Lin Jinrou achieved an invincible record and obtained the qualification to pluck the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus, the challenges at the scene continued.

As time passed, Su Wanxue also took the stage, but encountered obstruction from another Jiang family prodigy and was defeated, failing to achieve an invincible record.

Jiang Huanhuan whispered to him that the Jiang family prodigy had long ago become a disciple of an Emperor and had just returned after completing his cultivation. His master said that he should go down the mountain to gain experience, and there would be a fortuitous encounter waiting for the other party in the Gusu Emperor Star.

Su Wanxue lost, her expression relatively ugly. As one of the Four Little Phoenixes, she had always been undefeated in the same realm before.

"It's fine, I'll pluck one for you."

Su Qiyu comforted Su Wanxue.

Su Wanxue thanked him, but her expression did not soften. This setback gave her a feeling of shame and annoyance, realizing that her cultivation had become lax.

Not long after, Jiang Huanhuan took the stage and achieved an invincible record at the Fourth Realm of the Immortal Lord. Her soul lifespan was smaller, and her cultivation base was also behind the Su Wanqing sisters, but she was also a top-tier prodigy in the same realm.

Li Hao looked around. Sure enough, those who could achieve an invincible record were all people from the three great families, which showed the ruling status of the three great families in this Gusu Emperor Star. After the challenges ended, it was time to pluck the Immortal Osmanthus.

The first to pluck were those who had obtained the qualification for the Flowing Frost Silver Osmanthus.

"This Sword Stele contains a terrifying sword intent. To pluck the Immortal Osmanthus, one must endure the tempering of this sword intent, which is also no easy task."

Su Wanqing said to Li Hao.

While she was speaking, quite a few people plucked the Immortal Osmanthus, and a small number of people suddenly groaned when they got close, falling into the waterfall and being injured by the sword intent.

"With your sword Dao, you should have a chance to take the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus."

Su Wanqing comforted Li Hao.

Li Hao nodded slightly.

Not long after, the Flowing Frost Silver Osmanthus plucking ended, and it was the turn of those who had obtained the Divine Spring Jin Gui.

This group of people was smaller in number, and they all displayed overbearing momentum, rushing toward the Sword Stele.

Among the dozen or so people, only two or three fell, and most of the others obtained the Immortal Osmanthus.

"It's yours."

Su Wanqing looked at the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus at the top, with love and regret in her eyes.

Su Muqing's eyes were cold as she took the lead and stepped up. Her white immortal dress fluttered like a female sword immortal. She quickly arrived before the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus, condensed sword Qi in her hand, plucked one with a sword strike, and returned.

"Hurry up, or it will be snatched by others."

Su Wanqing urged Li Hao.

This time, there were ten people who obtained the invincible record plucking qualification, corresponding to the Tenth Realm of the Immortal Lord, while there were only six Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus.

Li Hao was not polite either, quickly standing up to catch up, brushing past the returning Su Muqing.

Su Muqing's eyes were cold, revealing a hint of disdain. Later, when Li Hao gave the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus to her, she would also trample it under her feet. Although she loved this item, she would also use this to tell the other party just how much she hated him!

Others also realized that there were many people and limited Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus, so they all rushed to act first.

oC〇

Su Qiyu's movement technique was the fastest. After all, he was at the perfected Immortal Lord Realm. He plucked the second one right after Su Muqing and returned floatingly.

He looked at Su Wanxue and Su Wanqing. The one Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus in his hand was obviously not enough to divide, so he couldn't help but feel troubled. He said to Su Wanqing:

"Wanqing, this time I'll give it to Wanxue. Brother will compensate you with something else next time."

Su Wanxue shook her head and said: "Give it to Sister Wanqing, I don't want it."

Su Wanqing said repeatedly: "Give it to Sister, I have the Divine Spring Jin Gui myself. Compared to the purple one, I prefer the golden one."

Su Qiyu coughed lightly. Su Wanxue was the second oldest of the four sisters and was relatively familiar with him. He stepped forward and said:

"Wanxue, you accept it."

Su Wanxue still wanted to refuse, but Su Wanqing said repeatedly: "Sister, you accept it, I really don't like it."

Su Wanxue opened her mouth slightly and had no choice but to take it, saying: "Thank you, Brother Qiyu, thank you, Sister Wanqing."

Su Wanqing smiled, not revealing the slightest regret or loss.

At this time, suddenly there was an exclamation, followed by the sound of splashing water.

Su Wanqing's heart tightened. She looked up and saw that among the many figures who went to pluck the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus, two figures fell down, and others had already fallen into the Sword Pool.

"Even at the Third Realm of the Immortal Lord, they can't pluck the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus? Is that sword intent that strong?"

"Of course, that place is already close to the peak, it's the place where the sword intent is strongest."

"In that case, even if we achieve an invincible record, we can only look and sigh!"

Everyone discussed.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed: "Look, that guy plucked it!"

Su Wanqing focused her eyes and saw that Li Hao was not among the fallen figures.

A deep and terrifying sword intent circulated, slashing down an Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus, which was grasped by a slender and powerful hand.

Li Hao's eyes circulated with the power of five origins, like a five-colored lotus. A terrifying sword intent invaded his sea of consciousness, but he also aroused the might of the Five Absolutes Emperor Sword, severing it in his sea of consciousness!

The sword momentum of the Five Absolutes Emperor Might was even more overbearing. After severing it, the pressure on his body was greatly reduced, and his figure turned, returning easily.

"How is it possible? Even the Kong family prodigy at the Third Realm of the Immortal Lord was defeated, yet he actually plucked it?"

"Could it be that his sword intent is even more powerful than Kong Yeyu's?"

"That guy really didn't use his full strength earlier? Could he be able to compete with Kong Yeyu?"

Everyone was terrified, looking in horror at the young man returning with the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus in his hand.

Su Muqing's expression also changed slightly. Earlier, when she plucked the Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus, although it seemed easy, when she was impacted by that sword intent, she could feel how terrifying that sword intent was. Even she had used her true strength to sever it.

"This guy..."

Su Muqing stared fixedly at Li Hao, her eyes flickering uncertainly.

Su Wanqing also noticed that the plucking of this Immortal Rhyme Purple Osmanthus was even more difficult than she had imagined, and couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised for Li Hao.

At this time, Li Hao arrived before the prayer mat. Just as he stood still, suddenly an exclamation sounded.

Li Hao turned his head and saw a pink figure fall into the Sword Pool.

In the desperate situation of the Southern Territory, before that supreme might, even if he condensed the Dao Source Immortal Seal, his brilliance was lost, dim and lusterless. But that figure who traveled through time still arrived, facing death.

Which brilliance was the other party pursuing?

Su Qiyu raised his eyebrows, not bothering to discuss these things with Li Hao anymore. He only wanted to see Li Hao make a move, but it was clear that was going to fall through.

"Brother Qiyu, don't talk to such a coward. Even if he really went on stage, I wouldn't look at him one more time."

Su Muqing said coldly.

Hearing this, Su Qiyu had no choice but to give up with regret.

Seeing the atmosphere turn cold, Su Wanqing couldn't help but sigh secretly and did not try to persuade him further.

Beside them, Su Wanxue looked at the youth's shoulder, her eyes showing a bit more disdain.

As the prodigies on the battle stage continued to fight and time passed, when a clan prodigy at the sixth level of the Immortal Monarch Realm went on stage, Su Muqing suddenly stood up and said:

"It's too smelly here; I'm going to go catch a breath."

As she spoke, her figure flickered, and she leaped onto the battle stage.

That young master on the battle stage was still looking around, surveying the four directions and selecting an opponent, when he suddenly saw Su Muqing descend onto the stage via teleportation. He was stunned, and immediately after, the hairs on his body stood up, and his expression changed drastically.

That peerless, lovely young girl was like a ferocious beast in his eyes, as if he were in a cage with a fierce animal.

"Miss Mu, Muqing, what are you doing?"

That young master trembled in his heart and offered a fawning smile.
