Heaven's Will against a Sage's Will (Second update)

"In ancient times, in an era of legends of Immortal Deity, a four-character phrase was passed down: 'Heaven and Earth, Black and Yellow.'"

"The Dao Heart is also graded in this way, but I have never heard of any Earth Grade Dao Heart. If there is one, it is the Heavenly Heart, the Heart of the Heavenly Dao!"

"The sages have preached countless doctrines and been exiled for millennia, yet they only attained the Profound Earth Grade Dao Heart. This ambition is already the limit of our imagination, isn't it? Are there even greater goals?"

The people Immortal Gate looked at each other in bewilderment.

In their understanding, it's hard to imagine anyone possessing Great Dao Heart that surpasses the aspirations and ideals of Sage.

Such a thing is unheard of. Rather than believing it, it's more likely that the Dao Heart Tower is malfunctioning, since that's a more probable possibility.

While they were discussing, Yu Zu kept his gaze fixed on the young man Immortal Gate and whispered:

"He's coming in. Our Primal Beginning Holy Land will spare no expense to acquire this child. I hope none of you will try to take him from me!"

"Yu Zu's words are far too domineering. Although my Heavenly Phoenix Sacred Land is not as powerful as Yuan Shi, we are willing to devote all the resources of our Sacred Land to nurture him!"

A sharp glint flashed in the eyes of the God Daughter -like woman beside her, but she spoke calmly.

"If I'm not mistaken, your Heavenly Phoenix Sacred Land is Demon Race with many female disciples. Isn't that inappropriate?"

Upon hearing the woman's words, Yu Zu glanced at her indifferently and said coldly.

"So what if they're Demon Race? They have Cultivation Method suitable for Human Race. We humans and demons have long lived in harmony. Could it be that Yu Zu is trying to incite conflict between the two races with these words?"

The God Daughter, exuding Aura of nobility, said coldly, "Besides, having many female disciples might not be a bad thing for them."

"..."

Yu Zu withdrew his gaze, too lazy to argue with the other party any further, but merely sneered inwardly.

Since this young man came from the Mortal World, he also knew about his disciple's situation Mortal World. The other party likely had a close relationship with the Jiang Family. By using this as a starting point, it would be difficult for others to compete with him.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the old man on the other side. The old man was the ancestor of the Void Sacred Land of the Cloud Radiance Realm and Mist Realm, but at this moment, the old man was expressionless and did not speak, seemingly not intending to compete.

This surprised Yu Zu somewhat; such Prodigy, yet the Void Sacred Land remained unmoved?

The other factions nearby were speechless upon hearing the God Daughter's words. These two Half-Saint ancestors had already begun vying for power before they had even stepped into the Immortal Gate —this was simply outrageous.

However, they also knew that they had no chance with such Heavenly Prodigy; he was destined to Sage Entry for cultivation and be accepted as Personal Disciple by a Sage.

Ji Xuanshen and the others exchanged glances and smiled wryly. This guy always managed to stir up trouble, which was quite astonishing.

"Young man, come in."

Yu Zu spoke to the young man Immortal Gate.

Outside, Li Hao was still waiting for feedback from the Little Tower of Dao Heart, but seeing that the Little Tower remained silent, he couldn't help but feel puzzled.

However, he didn't care how he judged his own Dao Heart; whether it was low or high, it was all his heart and his path.

Hearing the message from within the Immortal Gate, Li Hao withdrew his thoughts and looked at the Immortal Gate, which was so close at hand. He knew that this one step would separate Mortal World.

Li Hao turned around, looking at the Square, then at Ren Qianqian at the end of the Ascension Ladder, then at Yu Emperor soaring into the sky, and finally at the old Daoist flying over.

Their eyes met, and Li Hao nodded slightly to them, bidding them farewell for the time being.

At the same time, Li Hao's Divine Sense also noticed Ji Tianchao, the Ji Family War God, standing in mid-air in the distance outside the Imperial Palace.

Li Hao also felt goodwill and affection for the old man, and nodded to him.

Ji Tianchao, Imperial Palace, was startled by Li Hao's gentle and peaceful gaze. His heart, which had been filled with grief, was now soothed by Wenrou.

His eyes were slightly red, and he smiled at Li Hao, raising his hand to give a thumbs up.

Li Hao's gaze fell upon the crowd, and seeing the excited expressions on Li Yuanzhao and the others' faces, he smiled and waved to them.

"Hao Ge saw us!"

Li Yuanzhao became even more excited, his face beaming with joy.

Li Wushuang and Li Zhining were both stunned. Seeing the young man's gentle appearance, they suddenly smiled, but something seemed to flash across their eyes.

Li Hao gave Ren Qianqian an encouraging look, then composed himself and turned to step into the Immortal Gate.

As soon as Li Hao stepped inside, he sensed something was amiss.

The Immortal Gate, so close at hand, ripples like water, giving one a sense of traveling through Time and Space.

However, before he could adjust, the numerous blurry figures standing behind the Immortal Gate suddenly became distant, instead of clear.

At the same time, a chilling killing intent suddenly surged from the Void, carrying immense pressure—it was a vast and mighty holy will!

Li Hao was stunned, his pupils suddenly contracted, and when he looked up, he saw only a vast Chaos Void all around him, but a blurry figure and will suddenly came to suppress him!

The murderous intent came extremely suddenly, catching everyone off guard.

Li Hao's hair stood on end, his blood seemed to Solidification, and he felt a strong sense of danger, like facing the Saint-Demon Corpse in the Abyss, a feeling of facing death directly.

Is this the work of Sage?!

Li Hao was shocked and incredulous, but this was quickly followed by anger and shock.

He suddenly erupted, entering Divine Power State. At the same time, the Heaven and Earth Meridian rapidly gathered the Heaven and Earth Power, directly entering the Ultimate Transformation to Immortality.

With a loud bang, his body suddenly exploded.

Under that overwhelming force, he was like an egg being struck by a hammer, utterly unable to withstand it.

Behind the Immortal Gate, Yu Zu and the God Daughter, who were waiting for Li Hao to pass through Immortal Gate, suddenly changed their expressions. Their gazes seemed to pierce through the Immortal Gate, sensing the subtle energy fluctuations within.

The two were shocked and suddenly looked up at the unreachable sky, where a blurry figure seemed to appear and disappear, as if a trace of holy will Descent upon them!

That was the work of Sage!

Moreover, they immediately recognized him as the Void Saint!

Yu Zu suddenly looked at the old man beside him. The old man's expression remained indifferent, but a cold smile seemed to appear on the corner of his mouth.

Yu Zu was somewhat shocked and angry. No wonder the other party Non-Contention or snatched anything from beginning to end; it turned out they had no intention of letting this Prodigy come over and planned to Assassination directly!

Moreover, to prevent them from interfering, it was the Sage of the Void Sacred Land who personally took action!

The opponent achieved sainthood through the Void Dao, and his mastery of the wonders of space is unparalleled. In his hands, this short distance between Immortal Gate can be transformed into a vast battlefield.

"Void Sacred Land, you've gone too far!"

Yu Zu couldn't help but roar in shock and anger.

"Exactly, even if we can't win, it doesn't have to be destroyed."

The God Daughter's expression was also exceptionally cold. She didn't believe that their Heavenly Phoenix Sacred Land had no chance of competing, but now it was completely gone.

"I'm sorry, but that young man has offended my Saint Child; he must die."

Faced with the two men's Anger questions, the old man calmly replied.

The other factions were also shocked by this sudden turn of events, and were all taken aback when they heard the conversation between the three.

Ji Xuanshen, Jiang Lichen, and the others were waiting to see Li Hao and greet him, but after Li Hao entered the Immortal Gate, he disappeared without a trace, seemingly having been transferred to another place. He did not reappear for a long time, and just as they were wondering about this, they heard the words of the three ancestors, and they were all astonished.

Destroyed? What happened?

Ji Xuanshen and the others looked at the old man in shock.

The old man suddenly became the target of everyone's criticism, but he remained calm and composed, seemingly not taking it seriously.

Everyone knew that they couldn't possibly do anything to an ancestor with just Anger.

"I will report this matter to the Primal Beginning Saint. Your Void Sacred Land must provide an explanation!"

Killing Aura appeared in Yu Zu's eyes as he suppressed his Anger.

The old man remained indifferent and did not respond. He had already anticipated this outcome when he secretly communicated with the Sage earlier.

While the young man was indeed a peerless Prodigy, the deceased Prodigy was not Prodigy, and had not yet joined the Primal Beginning Holy Land. Even if the Primal Beginning Holy Land demanded an explanation, it could afford to compensate them.

The opposing side wouldn't wage a war of Sage over a dead Prodigy; things would eventually calm down.

In the world of the strong, right and wrong are irrelevant; only interests matter.

If the benefits are right, people will praise the other party even if they know they are wrong.

Even knowing that you've slandered an innocent person, you'll still blame that person for asking for trouble, for being unwise, and for provoking someone they shouldn't have.

"You're so despicable!"

Jiang Lichen glared at the old man, already guessing the reason the old man had mentioned offending the Saint Child.

Previously, Li Hao killed six Dao Law Realm, allowing one to escape. Clearly, the other party was the one who coveted the Incense of Great Yu.

I never expected my enemy to be right in front of me.

"Um?"

The old man glanced at him coldly upon hearing his words.

A powerful will suppressed him, Jiang Lichen suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale. However, a buzzing sound rang out from his back, as his Sword Bone slightly resisted this Half-Saint's will.

Yu Zu suddenly waved his hand, blocking the old man's imposing aura and gaze, standing in front of Jiang Lichen and the others, and said coldly, "Are you trying to force me to fight you here?!"

The old man's face was cold as he withdrew his gaze. He already knew that their Void Sacred Land had no chance of accepting disciples this time; these disciples would never join their Void Sacred Land.

However, it's just the loss of a group of disciples. Besides, some of the outstanding ones might not have wanted to join them in the first place, so the loss is not a big deal.

While it would be good to recruit some outstanding disciples in such a vast Void Sacred Land, sacrificing them to eliminate Prodigy like Li Hao is definitely a worthwhile investment.

Otherwise, once the opponent grows stronger and accumulates enough Incense Sanctification, they will truly pose a great threat to the Void Sacred Land!

Moreover, although this incident was a loss, it also served to establish the prestige of the Void Sacred Land and let people know that the Void Sacred Land is not to be trifled with!

"If other Sage knew about this, they would also demand an explanation from you!"

The God Daughter stared at the old man, her face icy; she had already seen through his arrogance.

"You don't need to trouble yourself with that."

The old man said indifferently.

As they conversed, the void and Chaos within the Void Immortal Gate seemed to lengthen, and Li Hao's body shattered, transforming into countless bones and blood that scattered throughout the Void.

At this moment, these bones and blood are rapidly healing and regenerating.

Li Hao heard the sounds of shock and anger coming from behind the Immortal Gate. He suddenly realized that the old man's voice sounded very familiar. It was the voice that had been waiting inside the immortal Immortal Gate when he killed the Saint Child Xu Yuan half a year ago, after the latter had escaped into Immortal Gate.

Exactly the same!

The other party had remained silent until now, perhaps recognizing him long ago and deliberately waiting for him to enter the Immortal Gate so that they could use the Sage to make their move within the Immortal Gate's space.

The person who attempted to steal the Jiang Family's Incense was in the Cloud Radiance Realm, one of the Three Great Sacred Lands. No wonder they were able to spy on the Jiang Family's Incense in the Mortal World; perhaps their intentions began a thousand years ago.

But knowing all this is useless now. Li Hao's consciousness returned to the Void, and as soon as his body condensed, that holy intent reappeared.

"Blood-Drop Rebirth? No wonder..."

A majestic, seemingly Whispers whisper resounded, revealing an aloof detachment, and then that holy aura Descent once more.

Li Hao was shocked and furious. His opponent had not even shown himself, yet he wanted to kill him with just a wisp of his will.

Li Hao roared and once again reached the Ultimate Transformation to Immortality, frantically drawing upon the power of the surrounding Void through his Heaven and Earth Meridian.

His entire body was covered in golden skin, his hair turned snow-white, his consciousness merged with the Void, and he once again glimpsed the vast and supreme will of the Heavenly Venerable Will.

He borrowed a wisp of the Heavenly Venerable Will and suddenly slashed at that holy intent.
