"That's utterly ridiculous!"

The Primal Chaos Saint angrily rebuked, "You have only just become a saint, yet you are so arrogant. Do you really think that Sage are immortal? If you want to die, I will personally grant your wish!" As he spoke, he exuded immense power, and the sky above his Dao Arena churned like ink, as if pierced by his sharp words.

Beside him, the Law Saint glanced at him but did not react, unusually refraining from commenting on Li Hao. Although he disliked Li Hao, and Li Hao's actions were arrogant, they did not violate any rules or regulations.

Moreover, Li Hao's grudges with the Buddhist Sect and the Void Saint are common knowledge, so it's reasonable for the Dao Arena to resolve them now. Besides, he also wanted to see where Li Hao's confidence came from—could it be from the Source Ancestor?

If that's the case, then many things will become interesting. He glanced at the Source Ancestor, only to see surprise in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Could it be that he's overthinking things? "Haotian, have you thought this through?"

At this moment, the Medicine Saint also spoke, her voice gentle and flowing like a sweet spring.

Although the question was directed at Li Hao, the Sacred Dao aura revealed in the words easily blocked the might of the Primal Chaos Saint, preventing it from affecting Li Hao.

Li Hao glanced at the Primal Chaos Saint, their eyes locked in a fierce confrontation, both radiating anger. Li Hao concealed his killing intent deep within, knowing that beneath the Saint's seemingly Anger gaze lay a similar malice. Both remained hidden, but Li Hao knew that a battle between him and the Huntian was inevitable, just not yet.

"Even if I wanted to back down, I'm afraid some people wouldn't want me to. If the Primal Chaos Saint has a way to make them all stop challenging me, then I'll retract my words!" Li Hao sneered inwardly. The other party was pretending to protect him, so let the Buddha Lord and the others worry for now.

Upon hearing Li Hao's words, the Primal Chaos Saint's expression softened slightly, and he turned to look at the Buddha Lord and the Void Saint.

The Buddha Lord and the Void Saint were surprised that Li Hao had actually backed down. They were immediately filled with doubt. Could it be that Li Hao's move was a feigned retreat, a strategic maneuver to ensure that with the Saint Ancestor's protection, if they couldn't challenge Li Hao at the Dao Discussion Assembly, they would have no chance to kill him! "Supreme Saint of Huntian, this brat has insulted our Buddhist Sect! I will surely fight him to the end!"

Before the Primal Chaos Saint could speak, the Buddha Lord spoke first, stating his position.

Although the other party is Supreme Saint, he is not all-powerful, after all, there are other Supreme Saint present. "You, as Three Tribulations Saint, are seeking to discuss the Dao with a newly appointed Saint, isn't that a bit too much of a bully!"

Upon hearing the Buddha Lord's words, the Primal Chaos Saint's expression turned cold, and he couldn't help but speak.

Although he was protecting Li Hao, he was furious with Li Hao. This troublemaker had made him clean up his mess. "Although Lord Haotian is a new saint, he may not necessarily respect us old-timers."

The Buddha Lord said calmly, "These words are deliberately meant to stir up hatred for Li Hao, hoping to make Li Hao displeased by the other saints."

The other Three Tribulations Saint glanced at him, their brows furrowed in displeasure. They weren't stupid; everyone knew about the feud between the Buddhist Sect and Li Hao. Haotian was targeting Buddhist Sect, trying to drag them down with him—that was going too far! "Indeed, he's so arrogant, looking down on Heavenly Realms. If we don't warn him today, I'm afraid no one will be able to control him in the future!"

The Void Saint also spoke up.

The Primal Chaos Saint was furious and said, "Even if it's a debate on the Dao, you only need to send one person. Why do you all have to go? Do you want to take this opportunity to bully others because they are new saints and try to destroy their Sacred Dao?" He revealed the intentions of the Buddhist Sect and the Void Sacred Land, but the Buddha Lord and the Void Saint remained calm and unchanged.

"Since the Lord Haotian has come here, he must be prepared to discuss the Dao. In that case, let us discuss the Dao with each other. It is a matter of mutual consent. Shall the Primal Chaos Saint not interfere?" The Green Lantern Buddha spoke slowly, gazing at the Primal Chaos Saint.

The Primal Chaos Saint's face darkened. He was right; Li Hao had clearly come prepared. However, he hadn't expected Li Hao's approach to be so reckless, practically suicidal. Could it be that someone had leaked the information, and the other party knew he would protect him?

The Primal Chaos Saint glanced at the Medicine Saint, only to see the latter merely staring intently at the scene, his expression unreadable. A cold glint flashed in his eyes. "Hmph, if that's how it is, then please proceed!"

The Primal Chaos Saint suddenly softened his stance and said with a cold face.

Seeing that he suddenly stopped insisting, the Green Lantern Buddha and the Buddha Lord exchanged glances and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But then they glanced at the other Supreme Saint, worried that there might be some unforeseen complications. However, the other Supreme Saint just stared at Li Hao without saying a word.

The Medicine Saint Primal Chaos Saint, their eyes meeting. Seeing the Primal Chaos Saint give her a cold smile, she frowned slightly. Then she looked at Li Hao, only to see that Li Hao hadn't changed color because the Primal Chaos Saint had stopped, but remained calm and composed. She frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then remained silent.

"Gentlemen, this is his discourse with his own philosophy!"

At this moment, Huang Tianji Dao Arena, suddenly spoke up. His face was extremely grim. The crowd was arguing, but they seemed to have ignored him, the protagonist. He was the one who was challenging Li Hao to a duel on the Dao, but the others seemed to accept that he would lose to Li Hao. How could that be?

The Buddha Lord's expression changed slightly as he looked at his old friend.

He could clearly see that the other party was genuinely angry, and at the same time, he heard the other party's voice in his mind:

"I don't want that thing anymore! Don't come any closer! I'm determined to kill him, I will definitely kill him!"

Huang Tianji cultivated the Imperial Dao, having been an emperor since childhood, surrounded by admirers and revered by all. He had never suffered such humiliation, being so scorned and ignored. "Brother Huang Tianji..."

The Buddha Lord's expression turned somewhat troubled; this was a golden opportunity to kill Li Hao. "Do you perhaps think I'm inferior to him?!"

Huang Tianji was furious. While transmitting his voice, he glared angrily at the Buddha Lord.

The Buddha Lord felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He didn't believe his opponent would lose, but Li Hao was too unpredictable and so arrogantly confident. He didn't want any mishaps, not even the slightest possibility, and he had to eliminate him! "Come up!"

Huang Tianji glared at the Buddha Lord, then spoke sternly to Li Hao.

His words carried the weight of an emperor's command, imbuing them with absolute authority and inspiring an instinctive desire to obey.

Li Hao merely glanced at him indifferently and said coldly, "I've said it before, your Sacred Dao is but a minor one; you're not good enough for it!" "Do you want me to take action and capture you?"

Huang Tianji's face was icy cold, and his eyes made no attempt to conceal his Killing Aura.

Seeing that the Law Saint's lips were slightly parted, clearly about to speak, Li Hao couldn't help but shake his head. This Law Saint was truly a busybody. He was too lazy to say anything more and leaped onto the Dao Arena.

Seeing Li Hao finally step onto the Dao Arena, Huang Tianji's eyes Killing Aura, and he immediately unleashed his Sacred Dao power, roaring:

"Mountains, rivers, sun, and moon are all formed from dust particles. The Imperial Ruler the embodiment of the Power of Heaven and Earth; the Imperial Dao is the Heavenly Dao, the way of the sun, Sun and Moon Heaven and Earth!"

As he spoke, the Sacred Dao behind him stood majestically like a Dragon Bone, pressing down on Li Hao.

Li Hao's hair flew wildly, but his expression remained calm and unchanged, as if bathed in a gentle breeze. He stood with his hands behind his back and said indifferently:

"Dust that settles into a mountain is no longer dust; the Imperial Ruler gathers All Things, causing them to lose themselves; the one who unites All Things into one is the loser!"

"All Things come together, inevitably leading to competition; all strive to rise above, aspiring to become the dominant force."

"Where there is struggle, there is defeat. Cultivating this path will lead to numerous Defeat Tribulation and ultimately, utter ruin!"

As he spoke, he directly analyzed the core of the other party's Imperial Dao, stating that the process of condensing the Imperial Dao was nothing more than "struggle"!

Seeing Self core of the Sacred Dao had been exposed by Li Hao in a single sentence, Huang Tianji's Anger face became much more sober, revealing a hint of surprise as he stared at the young man. It seemed that the other party was not as he had imagined, being arrogance and powerful in battle but otherwise useless.

"It is precisely because he Non-Contention that no one in the All Under Heaven can contend with him!"

Li Hao slowly spoke, revealing his Sacred Dao Aura behind him. The light emanating from his Sacred Dao was like a dazzling silver sword, instantly severing Huang Tianji's Sacred Dao!

In an instant, the Sacred Dao, resembling Dragon Bone, was cleaved in two, its core shattered!

Before his eyes, a wealth of experience in Poetry and Literature emerged, and his Poetry and Books Dao rapidly improved.

Huang Tianji groaned, spitting out a mouthful of blood. He staggered backward, looking at Li Hao in fear.

His eyes revealed fear and disbelief.

"It is precisely because he Non-Contention that no one in the All Under Heaven can contend with him!"

These words shattered the Imperial Dao.

In the sky, the Great Dao Thunderclap resounded like a morning bell, startling everyone as if they had been awakened by spring thunder. They all felt a chill and their skin crawled with goosebumps.

This single sentence actually caused the Great Dao to resound, indicating that it touched the Great Dao Origin!

" To Non-Contention is to not be defeated; to not be defeated is to be invincible..."

"Non-Contention... is competing in itself!"

Source Ancestor murmured to himself, his eyes flickering slightly. He looked at the young man again, a solemn expression appearing in his eyes. Such words of Dao directly touched the Great Dao Origin, causing even his mind to tremble slightly. Fortunately, he had cultivated for many years and condensed the Origin of All Things, already touching upon this point. However, he had not expressed this Origin Dao so concisely as Li Hao.

"Non-Contention, how can one become emperor..."

Huang Tianji spat out blood, his Sacred Dao weakened, and fear appeared in his eyes, but he gritted his teeth, wanting to question Li Hao. His Sacred Dao was also closing up, trying to reunite.

There was no sympathy in Li Hao's eyes; the sword formed from the Aura the Sacred Dao slashed out once more.

The opponent's newly gathered Sacred Dao was cut off again, and their Aura immediately weakened significantly.

That Sacred Dao, having undergone the baptism of Heavenly Tribulation, was now easily defeated by Li Hao's Sacred Dao.

"Mountains do not refuse dust, yet dust accumulates on mountains, not because mountains strive for it; the sea does not refuse its fullness, for it gathers countless rivers, not because it strives for them, but because countless rivers flow back to it naturally!"

"The one who wins the hearts of the people True Emperor!"

Li Hao's words were profound and imbued with the Aura of the Sacred Dao, completely severing Huang Tianji's Sacred Dao and destroying its Sacred Dao Origin.

"The mountain does not tolerate dust..."

Huang Tianji was stunned, his mind reeling as if struck by thunder. He tried desperately to preserve the Sacred Dao, but his own Saint Heart had already been shattered.

Li Hao's words pierced his heart like a steel knife, turning his entire thought process upside down.

When the Saint Heart is broken, it means that he acknowledges from the depths of his heart that Li Hao's words are the truth.

"I..."

Huang Tianji opened his mouth, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Countless Great Dao Aura suddenly emanated from his body, soaring into the heavens and Heaven and Earth. Meanwhile, his long hair rapidly withered and aged, transforming him from a noble, middle-aged Imperial Emperor into a frail, elderly man.

The robes he wore seemed to have lost their color.

"Heaven..."

The Buddha Lord's expression changed instantly, and he watched this scene with shock and anger.

Li Hao actually broke Huang Tianji's Sacred Dao with just one sentence!

Li Hao's own Sacred Dao has not yet been revealed, but the Aura the Sacred Dao is already so terrifying!

The Green Lantern Buddha frowned, staring at Li Hao with a rather gloomy expression.

Upon seeing this, the Primal Chaos Saint was not only surprised but also relieved. No wonder this kid dared to challenge so many; it turned out that his Sacred Dao had grown to this extent.

A hint of murderous intent flickered deep in his eyes. He was already this strong after just passing the Human Tribulation; if he were to pass the Heavenly Tribulation, he would likely be even more succulent.

However, he had a vague feeling that when the time came, he might not be able to control Li Hao, so it would be better to nip him in the bud.

As he pondered, his eyes gradually became thoughtful.

"How did you come to comprehend such a Great Dao...?"

At this moment, in the Dao Arena, Huang Tianji, who looked like a withered old man, said to Li Hao in despair.

He fell from Sage, his Sacred Dao was destroyed, and the Great Dao he had absorbed within him also left him. His cultivation level plummeted, and he could no longer be considered Sage.

Therefore, in Li Hao's Sacred Dao, he saw light, saw a path, and even had the desire to pursue it.

This is the horror of philosophical discourse: once one's own Sacred Dao Origin is broken, one may be enslaved by others and become their disciple or Believer.

"Heaven and Earth and earth are our teachers; they have already told us everything, but you simply haven't seen it."

Li Hao said calmly.

Huang Tianji's eyes were filled with sorrow. He remained silent, like a forlorn old man, and turned to leave the stage.

The Buddha Lord glanced at him. The other party's Sacred Dao had been broken, and it was impossible for him to become a saint again unless he cultivated another Sacred Dao. It was impossible for him to cultivate the Imperial Dao again.

Cultivating another Sacred Dao is a completely new path. On this path, there's no difference between you and others, except perhaps for slightly better aptitude. He withdrew his gaze, no longer looking at him, and instead stared at Li Hao in the Dao Arena, his eyes revealing apprehension and killing intent.

"Are we still going to make a move?"

The Buddha Lord transmitted the message.

The Green Lantern Buddha stared intently at Li Hao for a long while before whispering, "His Sacred Dao just happens to restrain Huang Tianji's Sacred Dao, which is why it destroyed his Sacred Dao. No... the Sacred Dao has no conflict with us. Our Buddhist Sect is not interested in worldly affairs. If we discuss the Dao on this path, he will surely lose!" Upon hearing this, the Buddha Lord also came to his senses and nodded immediately.

I was just startled by Li Hao, but upon reflection, it's true.

After all, he had only become a saint half a year ago. How could his Sacred Dao have truly reached such a terrifying level? A slight manifestation of it was enough to shatter the saintly Sacred Dao of Three Tribulations Saint. Even the Supreme Saint is nothing more than this! On the other side, the Ancestor Xu of the Void Sacred Land and the Green Lantern Buddha exchanged glances. The Green Lantern Buddha stood up and said:

"This old monk has come to discuss the Dao with the Lord Haotian, to talk about this Non-Contention!" Li Hao sneered, but the other party still couldn't sit still.

But he knew there had been some risk involved; he had alerted the fish in the nest. Now it was time to reel them in. "Just you? Who else can come up on stage? If I Non-Contention, I'm invincible!"

Li Hao said.

Seeing Li Hao's arrogant demeanor, the Buddha Lord sneered. "Trying to intimidate them with the lingering power from just now? How laughable! Since that's how it is, then so be it."

The Buddha Lord spoke with a compassionate expression.

It seems that going on stage was to fulfill Li Hao's wish.

Li Hao sneered, ignoring the Buddha Lord's hypocritical posture. Heaven and Earth Have Flaws, and the other party cultivated the flawed part, so he could completely understand why he was so pathetic. Apart from the Buddha Lord, other Sage on the Meditation Cushion suddenly stood up one after another.

"Since the Lord Haotian treats us with such contempt, I shall ascend to Heaven and debate with him!" "I, War Dao, also wish to discuss with Lord Haotian the path to invincibility through Non-Contention!"

"My Spear Dao, the king of all weapons, is born to be king. Non-Contention is also the King's Path. I too shall challenge the Lord Haotian's Non-Contention Dao!"

As some of the Sage rose, the Sage stared intently, recognizing them as Sage who were on good terms with the Buddhist Sect and the Void Sacred Land. They hadn't expected them to go to such lengths to kill this new saint. Feng Boping's expression changed, showing some shock and anger, and he took a step forward.

Li Hao replied telepathically, "Old Feng, don't worry, no matter how many come today, they'll all die!"

Upon hearing his cold words, Feng Boping's words caught in his throat, and he looked at Li Hao in astonishment. Li Hao had already withdrawn his gaze, merely watching the Sage take the stage with cold indifference.

The Buddha Lord and his Twin Buddha Child also took the stage, while the Green Lantern Buddha and the Ancestor Xu came up last, their expressions serene. At this moment, including those from the Buddhist Sect and the Void Sacred Land, there were a total of thirteen Sage in the Dao Arena!

Adding Li Hao makes fourteen people.

With such a spectacle, many of the Sage watching from outside wore solemn expressions. Their gazes frequently drifted towards the several Supreme Saints, but they seemed to have no intention of making a move.

Meanwhile, the many Half-Saint watching from the sidelines were speechless with shock. Some of them were veteran Half-Saint who had participated in several Sage debates, but they hadn't expected this year's to be so intense. "Non-Contention..."

Dao Arena, Huang Tianji, who had just emerged, watched this scene. Besides sorrow, a certain madness appeared in his eyes. He stared intently at Li Hao, wanting to see how the Dao of Non-Contention could defeat Buddhist Sect and the War Saint and many other Sage. After all, the other Sage's paths were not countered by the Dao of Non-Contention.

"Since the beginning of the Dao discussion, this is the first time that all the sages have discussed the Dao with one person. This is unfair to Haotian. If Saint Haotian path is broken, you must not push your luck!" At this moment, the Source Ancestor also spoke, his face cold and solemn.

He was unusually serious, and the Buddha Lord and the Void Saint nodded, but a sense of relief was evident in their eyes.

Hearing this, it was clear that the Source Ancestor had no intention of intervening, and he also tacitly agreed that Li Hao would have his Sacred Dao destroyed and be reduced from the Saint Realm to the Half-Saint Realm. They understood the meaning behind the Source Ancestor's words: destroying Haotian's Sacred Dao was enough; they had to spare his life!

As for why they spared their lives, the Saint Heart all knew the reason. After all, in two and a half years, the Ancient Hall would open. At that time, they would still need this Prodigy who had mastered the Sixth Extreme Realm to be their key to explore the Path to Immortal Deities.

And since the other party isn't Sage, they'll be easier to manipulate, and won't even have the leverage to negotiate a price.

"Once we've used Li Hao, we'll deal with him life or death, and no one will stop us." "Don't worry, I'll spare your life, I won't kill you!"

The voice of the Twin Buddha Child echoed in Li Hao's mind, as they stared at Li Hao with a cold expression.

Li Hao merely glanced at him, his eyes filled with contempt. "Have you fallen into demonic ways? You've even lost your original intentions. What right do you have to stand before me?!" As he spoke, he exuded powerful confidence and an arrogant disdain.

This imposing aura caused the Twin Buddha Child' expression to change slightly, then they glared at him Anger: "You're the one who ruined me!" "You ruined yourself!"

Li Hao snorted coldly, too lazy to pay him any more attention.

He glanced around the entire arena. Thirteen Sage surrounded him, all radiating a strong Aura of Sacred Dao. They were all Three Tribulations Saint!

Clearly, Li Hao's words had shattered Huang Tianji's Sacred Dao, causing the other Sage who hadn't yet completed their Three Calamities to hesitate to step onto the stage. Although Li Hao was alone, no one knew whether he would launch a last-ditch attack, dragging an easy target down with him. "In that case, let the debate begin!"

Source Ancestor didn't say anything more, but just looked at Li Hao deeply, a look of regret in his eyes.

The Primal Chaos Saint glanced at him, surprised that the Source Ancestor actually had no intention of making a move. He frowned, his expression displeased.

Although Li Hao's life could be saved, the effect of the flesh core was essentially nullified. Unless he took it under his wing and cultivated it again, it was still unknown whether he could embark on that path. As the Source Ancestor finished speaking, the Buddha Lord and others surrounding Li Hao immediately revealed their Aura, each radiating their own Sacred Dao Aura.

Like thirteen Dao Light piercing the heavens, so many Sacred Dao were revealed, and countless Great Dao Aura Great Dao gathered above the Dao Arena, causing Cloudmist to surge. "All Things are at war, fighting since the womb; the War Dao is the ultimate Dao of Heaven and Earth, the Dao that reaches its peak."

The War Saint was a burly man, and his surrounding Dao Arena was filled with flashing swords and shadows, with the light and shadow of various weapons intertwining.

He is the War Saint, and all All Things in the world are his weapons and can be used to fight for him. He can quickly master many Secret Method and is one of the Sage Cultivation Practice Method and has the most diverse skills among all saints! His Sacred Dao transformed into a huge saintly axe and slashed fiercely at Li Hao.

Li Hao looked up at the falling holy axe, and a Sword Light surged from the Sacred Dao behind him, instantly deflecting it.

The War Saint's expression changed slightly. He hadn't expected that Li Hao's Sacred Dao would actually have a restraining effect on his War Dao. "Those of you who are comprehending the Sacred Dao, there are the War Dao, the Buddhist Dao, the Void Dao, the Spear Dao..."

Li Hao stood in the center of the Dao Arena, looking around at the saints. His cold eyes gradually burst forth with a powerful light. "Then I, the True Form, ask you all a question: What is the Dao?!" His voice suddenly became loud and clear, like a thunderclap, reverberating throughout the Dao Arena.

The Buddha Lord and other saints all showed slight changes in expression, followed by a tremor in their consciousness. What is the Dao?

Before they could even process what was happening, the Sacred Dao within Li Hao's body slowly extended out, revealing itself as a dazzling Silver Light, resembling a peerless scripture. However, it was obscured by the overwhelming brilliance of the light, making it impossible to discern clearly. Yet, as the Sacred Dao manifested, the eyes of the several Supreme Saint Dao Arena widened slightly.

The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao!

Li Hao's words were like a thunderous bell. His words were not a question to the saints, but a challenge. At this moment, he gave an answer on behalf of the saints, an answer to all the Heavenly Realms.

"The name that can be named is not the eternal name!"

As Li Hao spoke, the School of Names Supreme Saint's expression changed slightly. He felt his own Sacred Dao Origin being drawn in, experiencing a tremor. "Reversal is the movement of the Dao!"

As Li Hao finished speaking his third sentence, a supreme Aura seemed to emerge from the sky. It was as if the veil of the Great Dao Origin had been lifted and revealed to the world.

Besides the Buddha Lord and the Green Lantern Buddha in the Dao Arena, All Heavens Saints outside were also alarmed and couldn't help but look at the Cangwan.
