I alone reign supreme!

On the Buddhist temple, an unusual phenomenon of ice and snow appeared; the air seemed to freeze, and frost flowers drifted out.

Bian Ruxue slowly opened her eyes, her clear and bright eyes as cold and indifferent as Snow Mountain, devoid of any color or emotion.

Having just realized this, she ruthlessly severed ties with the past, cutting off the childhood figure that bound her to her heart.

Although she once said that she wanted to pursue her own Sword Dao, she was still willing to marry the other person as long as he was willing to marry her. However, she would have to wait until she had mastered her Sword Dao before she could do things like having children, which would take a lot of time and energy.

Facing the figure who accompanied her in her childhood, she chose Sword Dao, but she always felt guilty.

Now, even the guilt and longing buried deep in my heart have been severed.

She knew that without cutting off the connection, she could not reach the summit.

The other party said that once she climbed to the summit and saw the true pinnacle of Sword Dao, she would come back and tell him just how magnificent it was.

She had the same thought, but now she has also abandoned that idea.

Only by Dao Heart Sealing and then breaking Dao Heart can she achieve the Forget Love Sword Dao that she has just realized.

That's right, her original Ice and Snow Sword Intent was extended through sudden enlightenment, and her Sword Dao changed.

The ultimate state of ice and snow is freezing and shattering. All Things have feelings, but ice and snow are ruthless, burying everything, suppressing spring, and making All Things in Heaven and Earth tremble.

Her Sword Dao is the same.

At this moment, her eyes were calm and indifferent. Looking back at the Sun and Moon Sword Dao of the Bright Moon Saint Child, she also had a feeling of "nothing special".

Although the sun and moon can illuminate All Things can be severed from their emotions and shattered!

She even felt that her Master, the Sword Saint, was not Perfection in his Sword Dao. Although the Sentient Sword Dao was terrifying, all beings also had something in common: emotion.

Birds and beasts all have feelings, and where there are feelings, there are cracks. And those cracks are the trajectory of her sword, the place where the light shines in, and the place where her sword extends!

"Um?"

The Sword Saint noticed Bian Ruxue's Awakening, but he also keenly observed that his disciple's sudden enlightenment seemed to involve some changes that he couldn't quite understand.

However, enlightenment is a rare occurrence. Some people achieve great things late in life, leading mediocre lives, but one day they suddenly have an epiphany, Dao Hearing, touch the sacred will, and undergo earth-shattering changes.

"Thank you for your protection, Master."

Bian Ruxue looked around and realized that she was above the Buddhist temple. She remembered that she had been defeated and returned to the stage, where she had suddenly realized the truth. She thought that her Master had protected her to prevent others from interfering.

She nodded slightly, her words of thanks conveying gratitude, but her eyes remained calm.

Although she now Forget Love Sword Dao, she will still acknowledge this affection; however, how and when to repay it is up to her own discretion.

The Sword Saint shook his head slightly, glanced at her, and said nothing more.

The Literary Saint glanced at the girl and realized that she had suddenly gained enlightenment and her strength had leaped to the top of the Heavenly Prodigy. Unfortunately, her enlightenment came too late, which meant she was destined to miss out on the Supreme Heaven Pride Battle.

He withdrew his gaze, glanced at the Buddha Lord, who, after congratulating the Sword Saint, calmly looked around the arena, like an unmoving Buddha.

This is tantamount to tacitly approving that the Buddhist Sect Half-Saint would take action and suppress the boy.

The scholar Saint Heart a pang of regret. Such Heavenly Prodigy, though displaying his brilliance, was actually quite normal. What young person isn't ambitious? If they weren't ambitious, could they even be called a young person?

Moreover, it is only natural for someone to feel anger when they are wronged and slandered as a demon. If they are afraid of the majesty of the Sage and are obsequious, they will find it difficult to achieve anything and their Dao Heart will be clouded.

At this moment, Jue Ming on the Battle Stage radiated a brilliant and translucent Buddha Light.

His reflection revealed Golden Body Dharma Form, Dharma Form and dignified, like an upright and unyielding Arhat, looking down upon Li Hao.

With a wave of his hand, Magic Array solidified, sealing off the Battle Stage.

Seeing this, everyone below the stage tensed up, knowing that this Half-Saint of the Buddhist Sect was going to get serious and personally teach Haotian a lesson.

"What you do?!"

"Stop!"

"A dignified Half-Saint of the Buddhist Sect, are you trying to bully the weak? Shameless!"

"He is the number one Heavenly Prodigy of your Azure Wave Realm, having just won this supreme Merit and Fame, and you want to suppress him, affecting his Incense? Don't you feel ashamed?!"

Below the stage, Zhan Tan, Ye Night Ancestor, and the others were shocked and furious, and shouted angrily.

They didn't expect that the other party would actually attack Li Hao, and that the Buddha Lord would not stop them. If this were in another Small World, winning the first place in the quota battle would make one an extraordinary and outstanding Prodigy, someone who would represent the entire Small World in the battle against the Heavenly Realms. This would be a great mission and a great honor!

As a result, having just defeated their opponent and secured first place, they were immediately attacked by Sacred Land within their own world, which was infuriating.

When they spoke out righteously, they also revealed their Saint Dao Seed, exuding the aura and majesty of Half-Saint. Among the millions of spectators, they shone like Xingchen, extremely conspicuous.

Everyone was surprised to see four or five Half-Saint speaking up for Li Hao, and they all looked over.

"So Half-Saint!"

"Are all these Half-Saint speaking on behalf of Haotian?"

"Haotian has quite the connections; so Half-Saint are pleading for him."

"Is it possible that these Half-Saint don't recognize Haotian and are just speaking out for justice? I also think that the Buddhist Sect Half-Saint's attack on him went too far; it's bullying the weak!"

"That's right. Besides, that Buddha Child didn't admit defeat, so it's normal for him to be beaten."

"What kind of mentality do you all have to defend that demon? So what if he's strong? If he can defeat the Buddha Child, then defeat him decisively. Why humiliate him? The Buddha Child's disciple's cultivation is arduous; he has been suppressing his Heart Demon since birth, enduring countless tribulations throughout his life, and yet he still has to suffer such humiliation!"

"That's right, don't forget that the Buddha Child is a reincarnation of Sage; he's assaulting Sage!"

"Isn't your statement a contradiction? If the Buddha Child is a reincarnation of Sage, then isn't Haotian, who defeated him, also a reincarnation of Sage? How can we, as Sage, discuss a battle between Sage? According to your logic, if that Half-Saint of the Buddhist Sect is now going to teach Haotian a lesson, isn't that Half-Saint trying to teach Sage a lesson?!"

Not only those in the audience, but all over the Azure Wave Realm, were buzzing with discussion.

Previously, Jue Ming wanted to teach Li Hao a lesson for disrespecting the holy will, no one thought he was wrong. But now, with many Half-Saint speaking up for Haotian, many people have come to their senses.

Regardless of whether the opponent is a demon cultivator or not, this battle already showcases the strongest Heavenly Prodigy the Azure Wave Realm!

As the strongest Heavenly Prodigy among Ten Kings and Three Great Sacred Lands, to be taught a lesson at this glorious moment of winning the championship is nothing short of humiliation!

Seeing the murmurs rising in the crowd, many Buddhist Sect disciples joined in, loudly rebuking and defending the group.

Hearing the angry shouts from below the stage in support of him, and even hearing Zhan Tan's cold questioning, Li Hao couldn't help but look at him. He saw that the beautiful face that had always been smiling for the past few months was now as cold as ice, showing rare anger. He felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

Besides the Zhan Tan, Li Hao also saw Night Ancestor and Azure Ancestor, as well as three other Half-Saint from the Flower Wandering Society, speaking up for him.

A smile crept onto his face.

One should enjoy life to the fullest when things are going well. He led a life of wandering and fighting, but he always managed to meet a few good friends, which was a blessing in itself.

"Still laughing? This is Buddhist Sect Sacred Land; no one can protect you here!"

Jue Ming saw the smile on Li Hao's face, but his expression was icy cold. Suddenly, the Golden Body Dharma Form behind him raised its palm and slammed down on Li Hao.

His palm bore the Six-Word Mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum," shimmering with a burning golden light that seemed capable of annihilating everything.

Li Hao withdrew his gaze from below the stage and looked at the giant hand that seemed to cover the entire Battle Stage. A cold glint appeared in his eyes.

Zhan Tan and Azure Ancestor, among others, all changed color and shouted angrily.

Countless people held their breath at the sight; this was the work of Half-Saint, about to suppress that peerless youth.

Just then, a dazzling black light burst forth, and a strong Sword Qi shone from the sword in Li Hao's hand, its Sword Momentum soaring to the heavens, like black flames raging across the blade.

Raise your head, cold eyes, swing your sword!

A decisive, Anger sword strike.

Within the Eternal Dao Domain, countless Sword Qi converged, and the various Sword Dao that Li Hao had comprehended merged at this moment, leaving only himself!

The Heaven and Earth seemed to dim, the sun and moon lost their light, and then that ultimate sword strike was suddenly unleashed.

With a loud bang!

The entire Heaven and Earth trembled violently, countless lights and shadows intertwined, and countless Sword Dao auras unfolded.

Finally, all the strange phenomena shrank, transforming into a jet-black yet gleaming Sword Light that severed everything!

Bang!

The golden Buddha Palm exploded, the Six-Character Demon-Suppressing Mantra suppressing demons within it shattered, and a monstrous Sword Intent surged forth, tearing open the Void and seemingly severing time for a moment!

"How is that possible?!"

Jue Ming's pupils contracted, and shock appeared in his eyes. His Saint Dao Seed, the Sacred Dao will within it, had actually been cut apart by that sword?!

What a dazzling sword strike!

Everything in front of them was blown away, including the huge Golden Body behind Jue Ming, which was also severed, and the Magic Array outside the Battle Stage was also torn apart.

"This Sword Dao..."

Bian Ruxue, who had just finished her enlightenment, also saw this scene, and her clear and calm eyes narrowed slightly at this moment.

In that single sword strike, she seemed to see countless microcosms of Sword Dao, all condensed within that one strike.

With a single strike, only the Sword-Ray illuminated the heavens and the earth.

I am the only one who matters!

As her eyes widened in shock and her mind reeled, Jue Ming on the stage was the first to be struck. His Buddha Palm was cleaved open by the sword that contained the full power of the Eternal Dao Domain. His Dharma Form was also severed, and his own hand was cut off by the Sword Dao, with his five fingers severed!

Blood splattered, and the terrifying sword force forced him to retreat several steps. Upon seeing this, the previous debate below the stage instantly fell silent.

One sword defeats Half-Saint!!

This is absolutely outrageous!

Countless people throughout the Azure Wave Realm stared in astonishment at the scene reflected in the Cloudmist.

This scene was beyond their imagination and beyond the limits of their understanding; someone at the Dao Inquiry Realm was actually able to defeat Half-Saint!

Although Half-Saint is not Sage, he still carries the title of saint. He can become a saint once the Incense are enough!

Despite the stinging pain in their eyes, many people still strained to see the scene on the Battle Stage, unwilling to miss a single detail.

Below the stage, Lin Qingying, Zhan Tan, and the others, who were filled with worry, were stunned, and then felt a sense of astonishment.

Although Li Hao had previously defeated the Buddha Child and displayed immense power, it was unexpected that he could actually contend with Half-Saint. It should be noted that Li Hao did not possess Sacred Dao power, yet he defeated his opponent. This could only mean that his accumulated power was terrifying and his strength was Prodigy, leading to a qualitative change from a quantitative one.

"It seems he hasn't used the Heaven and Earth Dharma Form yet!"

At this moment, someone in the audience suddenly realized something and cried out in a trembling voice, as if in agony.

These words sent a shiver down many people's spines, making them feel as if their blood was both boiling and Solidification.

Reaching this level of strength, it's impossible not to be at the Third Extreme Realm. This can only mean that the opponent still has reserves!

"This is... this is way too outrageous!"

"Where did this Haotian come from? What sect or school does he belong to? Which Supreme Saint's Personal Disciple?!"

"With such strength, he might even be able to take first place in the Contest of the Heavens!"

"I wouldn't dare say I'm number one, but I'm absolutely certain I'll be in the Top Ten!!"

Countless people were excited and thrilled.

Being among the Top Ten in the Heavenly Realms Conquest means that if the Azure Wave Realm participates in the battle, it will help the Azure Wave Realm compete for great fortune and increase the energy concentration of the entire Azure Wave Realm. This is something that can benefit countless Warriors in the entire Azure Wave Realm!

"Haotian... Haotian?!"

Bian Ruxue heard countless excited exclamations, and from them she recognized two familiar words.

The image of that lonely young man resolutely stepping out of the Divine General Residence on that snowy day, his back to the Xuanhe and bustling mansion, immediately flashed into her mind.

The other party abandoned one of the most noble and illustrious surnames within that Divine Dynasty, and was named Haotian. Is it a coincidence of names, or... a fanfiction?

Bian Ruxue stared intently, and the more she looked, the more she realized that the other person's appearance bore a slight resemblance.

But the other person's Aura was completely unfamiliar.

She was very familiar with that childhood figure, Aura, and smell; there was no way she could mistake it. This was definitely not the same person.

But how could it be someone with the same name?

She stared intently at the other person, a sudden urge to make contact stirring within her.

"You!"

Jue Ming glared angrily at Li Hao. Although he hadn't used his full strength, he had still used ninety percent of his power, yet he was still defeated by Li Hao. Was this the other party's confidence?!

"It seems my demonic path is so profound that even Half-Saint cannot subdue me."

Li Hao casually gripped his sword and said coldly.

These words carried a hint of sarcasm and irony, as if the speaker was trying to express the other person's thoughts and words.

Hearing Li Hao's mockery, Jue Ming's face turned ashen. He wanted to make another move, but that would be too embarrassing. He had intended to suppress Li Hao with one hand and easily resolve the situation, letting everyone see his opponent's defeated and humble appearance. However, he was instead suppressed by Li Hao.

If they try again and still lose, Buddhist Sect will lose face.

The Demonic Path? Whatever the path, this person is only at the Dao Inquiry Realm, yet he defeated Half-Saint against all odds. Isn't this tantamount to proclaiming that the Demonic Divine Ability possesses immense supernatural powers, and that cultivating the Demonic Path allows one to Dao Hearing and fight Half-Saint?!

Jue Ming humiliated, Jueming stood on the stage, his thoughts racing as he tried to mitigate the damage to the reputation of the Buddhist Sect.

Li Hao seemed to have read the other party's thoughts and said indifferently:

"Aren't you going to continue lecturing me? Your Buddha Child is still dozing off here."

As soon as he drew his sword, Li Hao's foot did not move away from the Twin Buddha Child's heads. Instead, due to the force of the sword strike, his foot stomped down even harder, almost cracking the Twin Buddha Child's skulls.

Hearing Li Hao's words, many people almost burst out laughing.

His mouth was covered in dirt from being trampled, and he couldn't even speak. Is that what you call dozing off?

Jue Ming's face was grim, and the many Buddhist Sect disciples below the stage also had ashen faces, feeling a sense of humiliation and resentment as if their blood vessels were about to burst.

The Twin Buddha Child, once so dazzling and awe-inspiring, were now being trampled and beaten by Li Hao, their Heavenly Prodigy air completely shattered, a heartbreaking sight.

"I've heard you come from the Mortal World, haven't you? You've only just arrived in the Lands of the Saints, yet you've already provoked Sage from the Void Sacred Land. You're causing trouble here today, but you'll perish tomorrow!"

Jue Ming composed himself and spoke in a cold voice, his words carrying a veiled threat.

Li Hao's eyes turned cold; he hadn't expected that the other party was aware of his deeds.

What does the Jue Ming Half-Saint Jueming mean by this?

"This Heavenly Prodigy is actually from the Mortal World?"

"What does it mean that he offended Sage from the Void Sacred Land? He previously concealed his identity, as if he has a hidden past."

Everyone was surprised to hear Jue Ming's words. Although he had previously used the alias "Qing Feng" to hide something, he was actually from the Mortal World?

It should be noted that many of the Heir and other geniuses present were people whose ancestors had been rooted in the Lands of the Saints. In their minds, the Mortal World was a place with scarce energy, much like a small mountain village.

Bian Ruxue was shocked when she heard Jue Ming's words, and felt a chill run down her spine.

Jue Ming heard countless comments, his eyes turned cold, and he shouted:

"Ten years ago, the Cloud Radiance Realm a chance to select Mortal World Heavenly Prodigy to take as Mortal World. They saw that he was of bad character, and the Sage of the Void Sacred Land tried to kill him. Perhaps they were too soft-hearted and let him escape."

These words shocked everyone.

Zhan Tan and Azure Ancestor, however, had grim expressions. When they had been discussing the "Haotian" Prodigy earlier, they couldn't help but sigh with regret.

But now that they know Qing Feng is Haotian, all that remains is joy.

The rumors about that incident were widespread, and everyone knew what had happened. It was clearly a personal grudge, and the Sage of the Void Sacred Land wanted to kill this Prodigy who had cultivated to the Sixth Extreme Realm. However, in the other party's words, he was actually just a person with a bad character.

As Half-Saint, Jue Ming's words carried considerable weight and authority. His revelation of Sage's intervention also shocked many, who looked at the young man with astonishment and suspicion.

Lin Qingying stared blankly. She had been cultivating within the Sword Ancestor Sacred Land and had no interest in understanding what was happening outside. Only now did she realize why she had found the severely injured and unconscious Li Hao.

The opponent actually escaped from the hands of Sage in the Void Sacred Land!

A dignified Sage actually attacked someone at the Dao Inquiry Realm, and yet Li Hao still managed to escape!

"Is it about that incident ten years ago? I think I've heard of it. A Prodigy from the mortal Mortal World came to the Lands of the Saints, offended Sage, and was executed."

"I heard it wasn't an offense, but rather offending the Sage's disciple."

"I also heard that another Sacred Land wanted to recruit disciples, and the two Sacred Land were vying for it. In the end, Sage intervened and killed that Prodigy. I never expected it to be him!"

Many well-informed people in the audience were now recalling and making connections, staring at Li Hao in shock.

Although that incident occurred in the Cloud Radiance Realm, news of Mortal World Prodigy and the Sixth Extreme Realm still attracted considerable attention, and thus circulated in small circles throughout the Heavenly Realms, though most people were unaware of it.

"So it was Haotian!"

"It's been so long, I've forgotten his name. Is he that Prodigy from the Mortal World? No wonder he wasn't from one of the Three Great Sacred Lands of my Azure Wave Realm, he's from the mortal Mortal World after all!"

As these discussions spread, more people eagerly inquired, and were all astonished to learn of the secret from ten years ago.

When the matter from ten years ago was brought up again, Li Hao's face turned cold. The other party's words were an attempt to use the name of that Void Saint to convict him.

No one dares to question a battle between Sage, but if a Sage attacks someone at the Dao Law Realm, then that person at the Dao Law Realm is at fault. Otherwise, why would Sage humiliate an ant like you?

This kind of robber logic, while infuriating, is also incredibly realistic.

"He comes from the Mortal World, and didn't grow up in the Lands of the Saints from a young age?"

The Bright Moon Saint Child and the Heavenly Prodigy, including Lin Shuhai, were focused on this, their eyes filled with astonishment.

They all knew that cultivation in the Mortal World was slow; a hundred years of cultivation was only equivalent to ten years in the Lands of the Saints.

But now, Li Hao is competing with them at the same age, and if you were to quantify it, he's simply terrifyingly Prodigy!

"Coming from the Mortal World, how could they possibly win first place in the Azure Wave Realm's qualification battle?"

"Even Buddha Child have been defeated, and even the Reincarnated Body of Sage have been trampled underfoot. Has something strange happened in the Mortal World? How could such Prodigy be cultivated?"

"That's outrageous! If he offended Sage, why didn't he die?"

The audience was noisy and engaged in heated discussion.

Jue Ming stared coldly at Li Hao, not making another move. He had previously intervened to save Buddhist Sect for the Twin Buddha Child, and continuing to fight Li Hao now might result in defeat. Although he still had some trump cards up his sleeve, Li Hao's sword strike had truly shocked him.
