Although the two Ji Family were surprised, they readily complied with Li Hao's requests and quickly fetched paper and pen.

Li Hao took the brush and ink, the white paper floated in the air, and he used his Control Power as Drawing Board to quickly grind the ink.

With each stroke of his brush, Li Hao depicted the gradually clearer outline of the woman from his memory on the Drawing Board.

Silk and satin draped over the figure, a beautiful silhouette stood there, and Li Hao, completely absorbed in the task, quickly finished the painting.

But Li Hao did not stop; he dipped his brush in ink again and continued painting.

Each painting became increasingly detailed, depicting everything from women to Courtyard to the civil and military officials at the hundred-day celebration.

The painting conveys the artist's feelings, like a comic strip, until it depicts the couple leading their army out of their home.

Li Hao's pen continued to move, gradually sketching out that vague, long-forgotten memory.

A child stands alone in the yard, gazing into the distance.

Children look up at the snow in the yard.

The hunched old Steward stood in the pavilion in the distance, a smile on his face, but his eyes filled with tenderness as he watched.

The servants and maids around him were sweeping up Falling Leaves, occasionally glancing at the young master with smiles in their eyes.

In the snow-covered courtyard, small children chased each other and had a snowball fight with the servants and maids.

A noblewoman picked up the child and led him to another courtyard to watch a four- or five-year-old child practice swordsmanship.

Lying on the bed, I looked out the door and saw what appeared to be two shadows.

The noblewoman picked up the child, her smile loving, but her upturned eyes seemed to conceal two sharp blades...

One painting after another was created.

A Little Tail appeared beside the child, and Foundation Establishment medicinal bath together, Blood Fusion. A middle-aged man in Green-Robed also appeared in the courtyard.

Under the night sky, a large and a small person drank wine while gazing at the countless Star and Moon.

In the end, however, a severed hand with a green sleeve was displayed in the hall.

Li Hao's pen Pause slightly, as if two clear tears were dripping onto the pen he was holding.

Master...

No one knows her name anymore, but Li Hao still remembers her; she was his first master, Lin Haixia.

A gentle name, yet a man of unyielding spirit.

Li Hao felt as if something in his mind had cracked. His previously full level of Painting Dao experience, which had reached Sixth Dan, suddenly gave a notification sound.

[Painting Dao experience +726...]

[Painting Dao experience +682...]

He was so engrossed in his past memories that he was completely unaware that his Painting Dao had already Entering Spirit.

Only those times are becoming clearer and clearer in my mind.

But when Li Hao got to the severed hand, he stopped drawing.

After a long while, Li Hao's thoughts gradually calmed down. At this time, he also noticed the prompts from his Painting Dao experience. His eyes flickered slightly, but he did not feel much joy.

Desiring something and not getting it, and getting something without seeking it, are two different State of Mind.

When Li Hao first Entering Spirit the Path of Cooking, he realized that the more he craved a breakthrough, the more it would become a shackle that bound him.

When State of Mind completely changes, this obsession disappears, and therefore one will not feel surprised even if one experiences rapid advancement.

It's like reaching out and plucking a Falling Leaves; everything happens naturally.

Li Hao Pause for a moment before noticing that the ink on the pen tip had already dried up.

His brief moment of distraction had actually meant that quite some time had Past outside.

Li Hao didn't stop. Instead, he glanced at the painting of the lively girl, then picked up his brush again and painted the woman who had become so clearly etched in his memory.

With Seventh Dan Transcendent painting skills, Li Hao's brushstrokes were casual, yet the figure on the paper seemed to leap off the page, gazing Wenrou at the boy beyond the paper, as if True Person standing right in front of him.

This is not a realistic depiction, but a traditional Chinese ink painting. You can see the ink marks on the sleeves, but the woman's expression is not like a painting; it is lively and vivid.

Li Hao put away his brush and ink, and seeing the paintings scattered on the ground, Object Manipulation power to lift them all up and arrange them neatly. After seeing that the ink on the paintings had dried, he folded them together.

Finally, this lively Wenrou woman was placed on top of this scroll of memories.

After doing all this, Li Hao used his Divine Sense to survey the area outside the hall and saw that, in addition to the original attendants, there were quite a few people waiting outside.

He frowned slightly, guessing that it might be because of his Dao Seed identity.

He had no intention of entertaining them; instead, he brought up his control Panel and set up Barrier around himself to prevent being spied on.

Although others can't see the Panel, he plans to add points, and his Aura should increase dramatically.

Currently, on Li Hao's Panel:

Path of the Physical Body 7th Dan, Imperial Dao 6th Dan, Sword Dao 6th Dan, Path of the Fist 6th Dan, Body Movement Dao 6th Dan.

A total of 31 Art Skill Point were spent.

And the many Art Skill he possessed:

5th Chess Dao, 6th Dan in Angling, 4th Dan in Musical Rhythm, 3rd Dan in Poetry and Literature and Calligraphy, 3rd Dan in Sculpting, 7th Dan in Cooking, and 7th Dan in Painting Dao!

That's a total of 35 Art Skill points!

There are currently 4 points remaining, which are not needed for the time being, unless Li Hao masters other Martial Dao, such as swords or spears, but that would be meaningless to Li Hao.

After all, mastering other parallel weapons doesn't add much to one's strength.

Moreover, there are many kinds of weapons in the All Under Heaven, roughly eighteen kinds, and it is impossible to learn them all.

Now that he has obtained a second Spirit-Entering State of Mind, Li Hao plans to use it on the Imperial Dao.

While Sword Dao is also crucial, greatly enhancing his offensive power and improving the level of various Swordsmanship Cultivation Method, Li Hao prefers to prioritize improving his cultivation level first.

With higher cultivation levels, it becomes easier to suppress techniques with brute force.

Moreover, the Imperial Dao involves Meridian Opening Method and Spirit Refining Method.

[State of Mind: Entering Spirit Painting Dao (Usable)]

Without hesitation, Li Hao chose to add points to the Imperial Dao.

As the prompt disappeared, a "not" appeared before the words "can be used" after "Painting Dao to Entering Spirit Entry".

At the same time, a flood of information rushed into my mind.

The amount of information received this time was still extremely complex. If Li Hao were still a two or three-year-old child, he would probably be overwhelmed and become mentally impaired, unable to cope with it.

All the intricacies of the Imperial Dao, from the mortal to the Transcendent, were dissected and absorbed by Li Hao before his eyes.

Li Hao slowly digested and integrated these Dao Realm Comprehension.

After he absorbed them all, he saw that all his various Meridian Opening Method, Spirit Refining Method, and Object Manipulation Method on the Panel had undergone tremendous changes!

However, the most significant change was not the advancement in the Spirit Refining Method and the Object Manipulation Method that Li Hao had been hoping for, but rather the Meridian Opening Method!

The original Peak Technique Hundred Battles Heavenly Circulation Art, has been transformed into the Starry Heavenly Circulation Art!

The Dragon River Divine Meridian has transformed into the Dragon Abyss Divine Meridian!

These transformations in his Cultivation Method allowed him to elevate his understanding of the Meridian Opening Method to a higher level.

The 108 meridians, plus the Yin Yang Dual Meridians, represent the pinnacle of Great Meridian in the body.

However, Seventh Dan of the Imperial Dao, Transcending Mortality and Entering Sainthood, allowed Li Hao to step into a new realm of enlightenment.

Having reached the pinnacle of Mortal Meridian, why not Transcendent?

Li Hao sat cross-legged, his Immortal Qi circulating within him, flowing through his Great Meridian, and then leaping out of the 108 Great Meridian.

Immortal Qi swirled and condensed, and gradually, an illusory meridian was opened within Li Hao's body.

Qi Meridian!

This Qi Meridian connects to 108 Great Meridian, and they are interconnected.

The Qi Meridian were thin, yet they resembled a newly simulated Great Meridian!

As this Qi Meridian condensed, Li Hao immediately felt his strength increase. It should be noted that the opening of each Great Meridian brings a significant boost to one's strength.

Moreover, the Qi Circulation Method has also been improved. Each Great Meridian can circulate two thousand times, and each time a Great Meridian is opened, the strength increases by more than 400,000 jin.

And this Qi Meridian channel can hold more energy and circulates faster than Mortal Meridian!

"108 Great Meridian are not the limit; above Mortal Meridian, there are also Qi Meridian..."

Li Hao's eyes were glazed over. Combining his insights from various Cultivation Method and the Seventh Dan of the Imperial Dao, he finally glimpsed the Transcendent path to the Circulation Realm!

The pinnacle of Mortal Meridian is the Heaven and Earth Meridian; I wonder what the pinnacle of qi Qi Meridian is?

Li Hao dared not imagine that the Extreme Realm had already slain countless Heavenly Prodigy and halted even the most unparalleled talents. This Transcendent Extreme Realm was probably not even recorded in the Ancient Sacred Clan.

Thinking about this, Li Hao felt he could go and find out more if he had the chance.

At this moment, he circulated his Immortal Power, continuously condensing Qi Meridian within his body.

One, two, three!

When Li Hao condensed 12 Qi Meridian, he had already reached the limit of his cultivation Cultivation Method and Dao Realm, and could no longer condense them.

Although the boost to Li Hao's power from these 12 Qi Meridian wasn't a qualitative change, Li Hao understood that it marked a new beginning.

The road after the Extreme Realm.

Only when it truly reaches the pinnacle of Perfection will its terrifying transformation be revealed!

Besides the Meridian Opening Method, Li Hao also explored the Spirit Refining Method and the Object Manipulation Method.

Time flies by unnoticed.

The transformation of the Spirit Refining Method and the Object Manipulation Method allowed Li Hao to reach higher levels in both the Spirit Wandering Realm and the Fifteen Li Realm. However, he did not master many Cultivation Method in these two realms. His original Spirit Wandering Realm 50 miles, but it has now increased to 90 miles.

The same applies to the Object Manipulation Method, which has been improved to nearly a hundred miles.

But it still didn't reach its limit.

However, Li Hao felt that it wasn't far off.

If we could find a few more top-tier Spirit Refining Method and Object Manipulation Method, and use them to complement each other, we should be able to break through to the Extreme Realm.

While Li Hao was immersed in cultivation and deduction, there was a knock on the palace door three times.

There was no response from Li Hao, and silence fell again outside the door.

Two days later, Li Hao absorbed all the insights he gained from the Seventh Dan of the Imperial Dao, familiarized himself with all the various Cultivation Method, and then dispelled the Barrier.

"The limits of the Spirit Wandering Realm and the Fifteen Li Realm are not far off."

Li Hao wondered what kind of abilities these two extreme states would bring.

He pushed open the door and saw many Ji Family standing at the entrance.

Before Li Hao could speak, the many Ji Family elders waiting outside the door were all delighted to see the young man step out of the door, and they quickly said:

"Young Master Ji, you're out."

Seeing these people's complete change in attitude, Li Hao was somewhat surprised. He nodded slightly and said:

What brings you here?

"My junior colleague was ignorant and spoke offensively before. I brought him here to apologize to you."

Standing beside each of these elders were men and women, young and old, with bruised and battered faces.

Li Hao frowned slightly and shook his head. Was he deliberately beating his face like this to gain sympathy?

However, sensing that the other party wanted to apologize, Li Hao didn't bother to pursue the matter further.

"It's all in the Past, you can go now."

Li Hao said.

"Young Master Ji, vent your anger as you see fit. Hit or scold these brats as you please," an elder quickly said.

Li Hao frowned and said, "Just don't disturb my peaceful cultivation."

Seeing Li Hao's displeasure, the elder gave an awkward smile, not daring to say anything more, and immediately waved for everyone else to leave.
