Achieving Emperorhood Through Merit, Invitation from the God King

Deep within the Divine Hall, the dark brown crystals had long since disappeared. On the dusty throne, a figure clad in imposing armor sat as still as an unchanging Bedrock, a black greatsword resting in his palm as he gazed down at the steps before the throne.

When Ying Xiaoxiao arrived with her grandmother, there were many Clan Elder present besides them.

Those reclusive elders of the clan, some who were asleep and others who usually kept to themselves in the shadows, had all come here. They knelt before the altar, their expressions devout and excited, waiting for their clan's Progenitor to deliver a message.

With just a single command, they will set off immediately to conquer the Heavenly Realms. They have waited far too long for this day of revenge.

As God Daughter, Ying Xiaoxiao recognized these Clan Elders and noticed that although they had all come, many familiar figures of the Clan Elder had disappeared.

A trace of sadness appeared deep in her eyes, but then she saw the majestic figure sitting on the divine throne. The Aura was restrained yet subtly emanating, like a volcanic eruption, inspired awe. Even though she had become Sage, she still felt a stirring in her Bloodline.

Grandmother led her through the central aisle to the steps in front of the shrine. Grandmother knelt down, bowed respectfully, and said, "Your unworthy descendant pays respects to my ancestor."

The Divine Hall was silent. After a moment, the majestic God King seemed to come back to his senses from the long memories of the Years. He slowly raised his head and looked at the many prostrate figures in the Divine Hall, most of whom were Half-Saint.

These are all his Bloodline offspring. Has everything been settled?

He spoke slowly, his voice deep and authoritative.

Ying Qingshuang respectfully replied, "Everything has been arranged. All clansmen have been summoned and are awaiting the Progenitor's command. Over the years, our clan has carefully cultivated various powerful forces that have infiltrated seventeen Small World and include 83 Divine Dynasty. The Mastery behind these dynasties are all members of our clan. With just a single command, we can launch a rebellion at any time!"

"Good."

The God King nodded, a cold glint appearing in his candle-like, majestic eyes. He looked at the God Daughter kneeling before the crowd and said:

"That Saint Haotian you mentioned earlier, I didn't expect him to perform like that at the Dao Discussion Assembly. He's worth trying to win over. If he can deliver a fatal blow to the Source Ancestor at a crucial moment, it will be a great achievement!"

Ying Xiaoxiao was slightly taken aback. She raised her head and looked at the Progenitor's majestic eyes, but quickly lowered her head again.

This time, the Progenitor agreed to her previous invitation, but she was not as happy as before; instead, she became worried.

Since Li Hao had already killed the Sage involved in the incident, such as Ancestor Xu and Green Lantern Buddha, who were also Li Hao's enemies, there was no reason for them to invite Li Hao again.

Moreover, being ambushed by the Source Ancestor is an incredibly dangerous situation. It was not only Supreme Saint, but also the most ancient Sage. Even the Progenitor suffered greatly at its hands and was sealed away until now before finally breaking free.

Her eyes held a complex expression. She still vividly remembered their first encounter at the Tea Stall, their conversation. "My name is Ying Xiaoxiao, Ying as in 'Born of Destiny,' and Xiao as in 'carefree.' What's your name?"

"You may call me Haotian." "And what is your surname?" "I have no surname."

She was very curious; how could someone not have a surname?

Just as her grandmother told her at birth, "You must remember, your surname is Ying, the Ying that Born of Destiny to destiny. Bearing this surname is the greatest pride of Heavenly Realms." When she learned about the boy's past out of curiosity, she realized how arduous his journey had been, and how many scars were hidden beneath his seemingly carefree and arrogant smile. Now, he has overcome numerous tribulations and finally become a saint, yet he wants her to Assassination the Source Ancestor. If this adventure fails, she will surely perish.

"Reporting to the Progenitor, the Source Ancestor is cunning and suspicious by nature. When fighting against the Progenitor, he may not give anyone a chance. If we are to win him over, it would be better to let him deal with the other Three Tribulations Saint involved. Our clan is short of manpower, and these Three Tribulations Saints will cause us great harm."

Ying Xiaoxiao lowered her head and said.

She didn't want to see Li Hao risk his life in a desperate gamble, but at the same time, she hoped that he could help the God Race and assist the Progenitor.

From what she had seen and heard since childhood, she knew the injustices that the God Race had suffered over the long Years. Despite being a noble God Race, they lived like rats in a ditch.

"As God Daughter, don't you understand? The most important thing in this war is the duel between the two leaders, namely, me and the Source Ancestor. Once the Source Ancestor is dead, the other Three Tribulations Saint are nothing to worry about. Those who are unwilling to submit can be easily wiped out by me!"

The God King's eyes were cold as he said, "If we can inflict harm on the Source Ancestor, it will be better than killing ten or a hundred Three Tribulations Saint."

Ying Xiaoxiao naturally understood this principle, but she had two concerns. The first was the risk of assassination, and the second was that although those Three Tribulations Saints could not threaten the Progenitor, they were enough to pose a threat to the clansmen.

After all, the God Race had been hiding for years, and apart from her and her grandmother, there were only five Sages in the clan.

Compared to the Heavenly Realms, this is still too few. When the great war breaks out, with the Progenitor fighting against the Source Ancestor, then the other Three Tribulations Saint will need to be relied upon to resist, and at that time, there will inevitably be heavy casualties.

If Li Hao could help her block the other Three Tribulations Saint, it would greatly reduce the casualties of her clan.

In the process of resurrecting the Progenitor, many Clan Elders have already perished, and now, it is feared that even more will fall.

"That person is already the strongest below the Supreme Saint, and will surely be won over by the Source Ancestor. We should act first; this is a rare opportunity. Let him pretend to be won over by the Source Ancestor, and then seize the opportunity to act."

The God King said coldly. When he learned about the Dao Discussion Assembly, this idea had already formed in his mind. He felt it was a good opportunity, and even if he failed, it wouldn't matter much; his losses would be negligible.

Ying Xiaoxiao bit her lip slightly and said, "What if he doesn't agree? What if the benefits the Source Ancestor offers him are even greater..."

The God King pondered for a moment, then glanced at her, his eyes flickering slightly, and said:

"You say he also cultivates the Ultimate Dao. If that's the case, then tell him that you Dao Heart Oath as a guarantee that all the Ultimate Dao Power in this war will be given to him. The more casualties there are in this war, the greater the benefit he will receive!"

"He might even have the opportunity to step into the Extreme Dao God Realm and reach a level comparable to mine."

"At the same time..."

He glanced at Ying Xiaoxiao and said, "You seem to have some feelings for him. I can arrange for you to marry him. Although you are all Sage and no longer care about physical pleasures, even Sage have lovers. If he has feelings for you, he should agree."

"Moreover, after this is accomplished, my God Race will rule the Heavenly Realms, while he will be independent of the God Race. I will grant him three Small World, all of which will be under his control, and he will Mastery all the Incense. In this way, he may one day cultivate to the God Realm through Incense offerings. If his own aptitude is sufficient, it is not impossible for him to challenge the legendary Unity of the Three Saint God Realms."

His words were incredibly tempting. Ying Xiaoxiao was stunned after hearing them, not expecting the Progenitor to be so generous.

This is indeed a huge benefit for cultivation.

Simply being granted the Ultimate Dao Power and reaching the God Realm is an incredible blessing.

"Go and do it."

After the God King finished speaking, seeing Ying Xiaoxiao with her head down, he coldly gave the order.

Ying Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth slightly, remained silent for a long time, and finally agreed, getting up to take her leave.

Within the Small Thousand Realm, in the Thief Heaven Sacred Land.

In the Small Courtyard, Li Hao took out various Heaven and Earth Treasures and fed them to Merit and Fame.

These Heaven and Earth Treasures are of many kinds. Some are rare divine fruits, some are source crystals formed from certain Dao Resonance principles in the Void, and some are Profound Heavy Divine Water. They all contain the Great Dao and the Tribulation Power, which can make the Dao Power of Dao and Tribulation Power in the Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon more abundant, until it undergoes a transformation.

In addition, the two Divine Water Dao Fish that Li Hao caught in the Heavenly River were also Heaven and Earth Treasures.

As Li Hao fed these treasures to Merit and Fame one by one, Merit and Fame absorbed them, and a strong Dao Resonance Aura gradually emerged from the jet-black sword.

This sword originally belonged to the temple of the Qian Dao Palace. It was originally Fragment, but now it has been refined into a sword. However, traces of the eaves can still be seen on the sword's blade.

As it absorbed the Heaven and Earth Treasures, when it had absorbed ten pieces, Dao Resonance Spirit faintly emerged within the sword, and a Spirit Consciousness became intertwined with Li Hao's consciousness.

The Spirit Consciousness, carrying Aura of joy and new life, was very active and conveyed Aura of closeness to Li Hao.

As it continued to be nourished by the Heaven and Earth Treasures, by the time it had absorbed twenty pieces, its Spirit Consciousness grew stronger and stronger, containing a terrifying majesty.

Furthermore, the sword also emitted Divine Radiance Lightning Tribulation, exuding a terrifying Aura and forming Sword Domain around Li Hao.

This is the Dao Domain inherent in the weapon itself!

It was extremely sharp and terrifying, in no way inferior to the Dao Domain of an ordinary Sage, and contained ancient Tribulation Power.

Li Hao sensed that the Fragment the weapon was gradually reviving, healing, and becoming whole again.

He didn't stop, continuing to feed it. After feeding it thirty Heaven and Earth Treasures, the sword hovered in front of Li Hao, Void electricity. The Sword-Ray that was naturally emitted and revealed tore through the surrounding Void, and strands of Tribulation Power surrounded it, filled with Aura of Destruction.

Meanwhile, thunder rumbled Small Courtyard.

The once clear sky instantly turned gloomy, with heavy Cloudmist gathering like billowing black smoke over the Sacred Land.

Inside, Thunderfire flashed, and an Aura of oppression and Destruction emanated from within.

What happened?

Who is undergoing tribulation?

"This... this seems to be Sage Heavenly Tribulation?!"

Many disciples practicing on the Saint Mountain were alarmed, and some were horrified.

They had previously witnessed the Thief Saint undergoing his Heavenly Tribulation, using his thieving skills to steal a sliver of Heavenly Tribulation and use Heavenly Tribulation to overcome his own Three Calamities. Now, this scene seemed strangely familiar.

"Um?"

Feng Boping, in his cave abode, was slightly taken aback when he saw the gathering dark Dark Clouds. He quickly realized something, and with a sweep of his Divine Sense, he immediately saw the source of the Aura. He understood; it was indeed as he had thought.

This tribulation was not caused by Li Hao himself, since Li Hao had not yet overcome the Earth Tribulation and could not directly jump to the Heavenly Tribulation.

Li Hao, having destroyed the Buddhist Sect and the Void Sacred Land, naturally amassed considerable benefits, enough to repair the damaged Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon. At this moment, in the Small Courtyard, Li Hao sat upright, gazing at the roaring thunder above his head. He felt the floating Merit and Fame before him stirring restlessly.

Suddenly, with a whoosh, the joyful Spirit Consciousness within the Merit and Fame emitted a long, howling sword cry, bursting forth, tearing through the Void, rushing out of the Small Courtyard, and heading towards the horizon. It was born of Heaven and Earth, and as it took shape, it would also endure the Heaven and Earth Tribulation.

Beneath the Dark Clouds, the Pitch-Black Merit and Fame figure burst forth with dazzling Silver Light, rapidly soaring into the clouds. Rumble!

The thunder roared even louder in the clouds, as if it were in a fit of rage.

The sword shadow, thousands of feet long, would occasionally flash through the clouds, or amidst the thunderous tremors and flashes, it would illuminate the clouds and reveal the enormous sword mark!

The sword shadow was constantly being slashed by lightning in the clouds. The Thunder Light, like a twisted serpent, fought with the sword shadow. With each impact, a violent tremor resounded, making people's hearts tremble.

Li Hao loosened his legs, sat under the eaves, and quietly gazed at the clouds. He could sense the Spirit Consciousness of Merit and Fame, which was unusually joyful, without fear, but rather filled with an aura of fearlessness.

As thunder roared, the clouds were suddenly torn apart, and a Sword-Ray illuminated the Heaven and Earth, seemingly about to cleave the entire Saint Mountain in two. The clouds were severed, and a massive sword slowly Descent from within, like an emperor reigning All Under Heaven.

It was clearly a sword, but as it slowly descended, it seemed like the only light in the world, extremely dazzling. "Whose sword is that?"

"That looks like Divine Weapon undergoing tribulation."

"My friends from the Artifact Ancestor Sacred Land say that forging Divine Weapon will attract calamities. Different levels of Divine Weapon different kinds of Thunderfire calamities. I wonder whose this Divine Weapon is." "With such a display of power, the thunder has roared more than nine times. It's probably Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon!"

Many disciples on the Saint Mountain felt immense majesty emanating from that sword, as if an emperor Descent and looked down upon the Mortal World.

They felt an urge to prostrate themselves in worship. All Things have a spirit, but weapons that reach the level of Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon are no less than the presence of Sage.

Throughout the Saint Mountain, many swords trembled. Some Side Sword with Sword Soul even broke free of their owners' waists along with their scabbards, stuck in the ground, shivering.

Although the Thief Heaven Sacred Land is not primarily composed of Swordsman, its students have a diverse range of skills, and its disciples also use swords. After all, disguising themselves as dashing Swordsman makes it easier to steal and lowers others' guard.

If someone dresses in a sleazy manner, and someone nearby is robbed, even if you didn't steal it, you'll be suspected. Therefore, many disciples in the Thief Heaven Sacred Land, judging from their appearance alone, mostly look like upright gentlemen.

Just like the many disciples of the Lie Heaven Sacred Land, they all have the appearance of gentlemen, and the women are even more gentle and beautiful, with graceful temperaments, so that no one would associate them with lies.

As the Lightning Tribulation of Merit and Fame and fame Descent, ten thousand swords on the Saint Mountain bowed their heads, creating a tremendous commotion. Li Hao, not wanting to cause too much of a stir, recalled the Merit and Fame.

Merit and Fame a slight flash, the sword flew back to the Small Courtyard. Its original body, which was over ten feet long, shrank to the size of an ordinary longsword. It was still pitch black, but covered with flowing light and Tribulation Fire. It simply hung in mid-air, and it tore a faint crack in the Void.

Like Falling Leaves rippling on water, the sword created endless waves. Li Hao was amazed; it seemed even sharper than before.

He gripped the sword hilt and immediately felt a surge of joy.

"Everyone says Merit and Fame are good. All living beings in this world are born with a name. Surname is the root, given name is the destiny. What they seek in their lives is nothing more than to make a name for themselves. Even saints are no exception..." Li Hao murmured to himself. Making one's name known to the world seems to be the instinctive desire of all living beings.

"Merit and Fame Merit and Fame... If one could sever the Merit and Fame, one would be the sharpest thing in the world," Li Hao said softly.

The sword in his hand seemed to hear his Whispers, vibrating slightly in response, emitting a joyful yet resolute Spirit Consciousness.

Li Hao smiled knowingly. As Swordsman, he naturally loved the sword in his hand. He picked up the Merit and Fame and slashed it across the back of his hand. However, he found that the muscles on the back of his hand were extremely tough. He needed to use 80% of his strength to cut the back of his hand.

His current physique is comparable to Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon, which means that even fame and Merit and Fame can scratch other Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon. "Indeed sharp, but you probably haven't eaten enough."

Li Hao smiled, picked up the Merit and Fame, and continued to feed it the remaining Heaven and Earth Treasures.

As he absorbed ten more portions of the Heaven and Earth Treasures, the Dao Resonance and radiance on his Merit and Fame became even more dazzling, and the Tribulation Power also grew stronger. Li Hao fed him ten more portions, and thunder rumbled in the sky once again.

The disciples who had been discussing and speculating about the sword's whereabouts were all startled by the sudden second thunderclap, and were taken aback. Li Hao felt the trembling of the Merit and Fame in his hand and the overwhelming battle intent, and was slightly stunned, not expecting that it would actually trigger Heavenly Tribulation.

He released his hand, not offering any assistance. He could sense that Merit and Fame did not want him involved in its own calamity. The moment he released his hand, Merit and Fame transformed into a Jet-Black Light, piercing directly into the clouds.

Soon, thunder rumbled again from within the clouds.

"You brat, it seems you've reaped quite a harvest from your purge of the Buddhist Sect and the Void Sacred Land, actually managing to get the Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon to the first tribulation!" At this moment, Feng Boping appeared in Li Hao's courtyard at some point, looked up at the sky, and said to Li Hao with admiration.

Li Hao turned his head and looked, asking curiously, "Could it be that if one absorbs enough, one can even undergo the Second Tribulation or third tribulation?" "That's right."

Feng Boping nodded and said, "The Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon is powerful enough to injure Sage and has destructive power comparable to Sage. If it goes through another tribulation, even Three Tribulations Saint would have to be careful. If it goes through Second Tribulation or three tribulations, killing Three Tribulations Saint would be as easy as turning one's hand. Even if an ordinary Sage wields such a weapon, we can only flee at the mere sight of it."

Li Hao was somewhat taken aback, not expecting Old Feng to exaggerate so much, but he knew that Old Feng wouldn't deliberately exaggerate.

Having just Merit and Fame the Lightning Tribulation and completed its repair, the sharpness it displayed was so great that Li Hao felt it could kill a newly enlightened Sage. It was too sharp and contained Destruction Tribulation Power, capable of directly destroying the path of Sacred Dao, leaving Sage with no choice but to avoid it.

"Do you know that the reason why the Source Ancestor is revered by Heavenly Realms is not only because he is the most ancient Sage, but also because the Incense Power is extremely terrifying. Another reason is that he possesses a Seven-Tribulation Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon!"

Feng Boping withdrew his gaze from the horizon and said solemnly to Li Hao. Li Hao was stunned. Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon of the Seventh Tribulation?

"So, he fed at least 140 Heaven and Earth Treasures to the Emperor Weapon?" Li Hao asked in surprise.

Feng Boping couldn't help but laugh, saying, "More than that, a mere 140 Heaven and Earth Treasures. Even an ordinary Sacred Capital pull them out, let alone him. The feeding of this Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon doubles every time. The first time, you only need about twenty pieces to reach the first tribulation. If you want it to undergo tribulation again, you'll need 40 pieces, and then 80 pieces!"

"In other words, to reach the Seven Tribulations Emperor Weapon, one must have absorbed at least a thousand Heaven and Earth Treasures."

Li Hao was somewhat taken aback. Heaven and Earth Treasures are extremely precious. Even if a Sacred Land were to contribute three or five of them, it would be a huge loss. What does it mean to have thousands of Heaven and Earth Treasures? Even if All Heavens Sacred Land searched their entire empires, they might not be able to gather enough!

However, the Source Ancestor spent so many Heaven and Earth Treasures to forge a Seven Tribulations Emperor Weapon!

"If the Second Tribulation and third tribulations were enough to make the Three Tribulations Saint back down, wouldn't the seventh tribulation be an easy task to kill even Supreme Saint?" Li Hao asked, somewhat shocked.

Feng Boping nodded and said, "Otherwise, why would the Source Ancestor always sit in the center at every major conference?" Li Hao was speechless.

"Although the Source Ancestor wasn't the most Prodigy in talent, he definitely had the most profound foundation. After all, he lived the longest and accumulated the most, whether it was Incense or Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon!"

Feng Boping said this, which was also advice to Li Hao, to prevent Li Hao from provoking the Source Ancestor.

Although Li Hao is already quite powerful, if the Source Ancestor harbors jealousy, Li Hao may very well face a great calamity.

Fortunately, he knew that the Source Ancestor longed for the Path to Immortality, and since Li Hao was the key to that Ancient Hall, the other party would certainly not easily harm Li Hao.

Once that Ancient Hall opens and the Path to Immortality is paved, and the other party becomes Immortal Deity, then there will be no point in being jealous. No matter how Prodigy Li Hao is, there is still an insurmountable gap between him and Immortal Deity.

Hearing Feng Boping's words, Li Hao felt a little heavy-hearted. He had cultivated to the point where his own power far exceeded that of Divine Weapon, but he had also experienced the enhancement brought by Divine Weapon in the Mortal World. For example, the Dragon Sky Sword had once made him slay demons as easily as cutting vegetables. If he hadn't had this sword, he would have suffered a great loss if he had relied solely on his own fists and feet.

"The previous repair of the Emperor Weapon was to help him overcome his Formation Tribulation, which was the first tribulation. Do you have any extra Heaven and Earth Treasures that can help him overcome the Second Tribulation? If he can overcome the Second Tribulation, this sword alone will be enough to kill Three Tribulations Saint!"

Feng Boping asked Li Hao...

Li Hao had previously amassed 54 Heaven and Earth Treasures, which he thought was a great number, but now it seemed that he was running out of resources. After absorbing 50 more, plus the Heaven and Earth Treasures he had accumulated before, he only had seven or eight left.

"Did you dig up that Bodhi Tree from the Buddhist Sect? That thing is practically Heaven and Earth Treasures, and it has already cultivated itself into Sage Entry. It has been nourished by the Green Lantern Buddha for many years. One of those trees is worth ten of them," Feng Boping asked, as he was quite knowledgeable about the benefits of the Buddhist Sect.

Upon hearing this, Li Hao knew that he had most likely coveted this item before, but had failed to steal it. He thought of Evening Primrose, who had absorbed the Bodhi Tree and was now in a deep sleep, and shook his head, saying:

"I pulled that tree out, but I'll use it for something else."

Upon hearing this, Feng Boping's eyes showed a hint of regret, but he did not ask what it was for.

At this moment, Li Hao thought of the Thunder Light Emperor Weapon of the Ancestor Xu, whose core was Dagger Thunder Light. "If I disperse the Emperor Weapon, can I feed on it?"

Li Hao asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Feng Boping immediately thought of the renowned Ancestor Xu's Tribulation-Destroying Divine Dagger and laughed, "I almost forgot, Ancestor Xu's Emperor Weapon is also in your hands. It's also a One-Tribulation Emperor Weapon, just like the Green Lantern Buddha's green Green Lantern. Speaking of which, you can dismantle that Green Lantern too, but if you use the dismantled Emperor Weapon to feed it, the effect will only be halved."

Upon hearing this, Li Hao felt somewhat regretful, but even the Ancestor Xu's Emperor Weapon would be useless to him. To truly kill an enemy, only one powerful weapon suffices. "Old Feng, do you lack a weapon?"

Li Hao thought for a moment and felt it would be a pity to dismantle it, since the effect would be halved. He thought it would be better to give it to Old Feng for self-defense.

Feng Boping immediately understood Li Hao's thoughts, and shook his head with a smile, saying, "I have an Emperor Weapon, although it is not as good as the Tribulation-Destroying Divine Dagger, it is easy for me to use."

As the two conversed, thunder rumbled overhead, and the Merit and Fame clashed with the Heavenly Tribulation within the Tribulation Clouds, unleashing wave after wave of might. Stunning Sword-Ray pierced the Heaven and Earth, sweeping across tens of thousands of miles. Such a sight was enough to make one's heart tremble.

Before long, the tribulation for Merit and Fame was over, and he flew back to the Small Courtyard.

Li Hao immediately felt that the power of Merit and Fame and merit was much stronger than before. He picked it up and lightly scratched the back of his hand, but it easily cut through. The weapon of the Ancestor Xu was also a tribulation, but Li Hao felt that it was not as sharp as Merit and Fame and merit.

"You can feed it that weapon of the Ancestor Xu. If you add the Green Lantern, it can immediately pass the Second Tribulation. At that time, the weapon itself alone will be enough to threaten, or even kill, the Three Tribulations Saint!"

Feng Boping said to Li Hao.

Li Hao said, "The Green Lantern Buddha burned out the Green Lantern, and destroyed the Emperor Weapon. He probably didn't want it to fall into my lap." "That bald guy, he's really willing to sacrifice."

Upon hearing this, Feng Boping couldn't help but curse angrily.

The Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon is a supreme treasure of Heaven and Earth, born over countless Years. Destroying one means losing one more. Even the Divine Weapon forged by the Human Race itself, even by the Artifact Saint, cannot be forged into the Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon.

Other Divine Weapon, however, could not absorb the Heaven and Earth Treasures to transform themselves, and were insufficient to withstand this power. Li Hao took out the Ancestor Xu's Emperor Weapon. Thunder Light flickered on this short dagger, tearing through the Void.

Li Hao hesitated for a moment, but sensing the fighting spirit and joyful Spirit Consciousness emanating from Merit and Fame, he thought for a moment and decided to feed it the item. If it could undergo the Second Tribulation, Merit and Fame could easily break through other Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon. If it encountered an ancient Three Tribulations Saint like Green Lantern Buddha who possessed Emperor Weapon, it could easily defeat him.

As the Tribulation-Destroying Divine Dagger was suppressed by Li Hao and its power dissipated, the dagger seemed to sense the danger and fiercely resisted, attempting to kill Li Hao, emitting a hazy Void Principle.

But before Li Hao could exert any force, the Merit and Fame directly activated the Sword Domain, which was even more terrifying than before. It enveloped the Tribulation-Destroying Divine Dagger Sword Domain, and with each sword shadow sweeping over it, the tribulation light on the divine dagger was instantly extinguished.

After being suppressed by both Li Hao and Merit and Fame, the Tribulation-Destroying Divine Dagger erupted in unwilling struggle and trembling, but in the end, its light dissipated and the Tribulation Power dissipated. Li Hao immediately had Merit and Fame absorb it.

Soon, the luster on the Tribulation-Destroying Divine Dagger faded, it became fragile, and was directly shattered into many Fragment.

Li Hao could sense that the Spirit Consciousness within those Fragment had vanished, but a faint trace of the Emperor Weapon's Origin remained. Just as the Sacred Dao is indestructible, the Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon, though destroyed by the Tribulation, could not be completely annihilated; it would only turn into countless Fragment.

If it is nourished by the Heaven and Earth Treasures again, it will regain its radiance and a newfound Spirit Consciousness.

Li Hao couldn't help but wonder if Merit and Fame and merit had also been destroyed in the same way, becoming nourishment for other Emperor Weapon?

As the Tribulation Power on the Tribulation-Destroying Divine Dagger was absorbed, Merit and Fame's aura became even stronger. Li Hao fed it the remaining Heaven and Earth Treasures. After feeding it the last one, Tribulation Clouds Dark Clouds previously dissipated.

Li Hao estimated that, according to Old Feng, the power that the Tribulation-Destroying Divine Dagger provided to Merit and Fame was equivalent to more than thirty Heaven and Earth Treasures. At this moment, as the Tribulation Clouds gathered, the people of the Thief Heaven Sacred Land, who had just been shocked, were once again taken aback.

"???"

They looked up, staring blankly at everything. Three Times Lightning Tribulation in just half a day?

When they saw the Emperor Sword rise into the sky again, they were all dumbfounded, realizing that an extraordinary weapon of mass destruction had been created.

This Lightning Tribulation was even more ferocious, but Merit and Fame also unleashed an even more magnificent aura, traversing the Tribulation Clouds with sharp and graceful movements, slashing through the Tribulation Clouds, and before long, he had overcome the Heavenly Tribulation on his own.

The Tribulation Power also burned cracks into the sword, but as it was surrounded by Dao Power, it quickly healed and grew back, becoming even sharper and more terrifying. In addition, perhaps because it absorbed the Tribulation-Destroying Divine Dagger, the Merit and Fame was also wrapped in Thunderfire Tribulation Power, and even had some of the aura of the Tribulation-Destroying Divine Dagger.

If it hadn't already been named, calling it the Divine Sword of Annihilation wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Li Hao grasped the Merit and Fame, feeling its Emperor's Might and joyful Spirit Consciousness. He stared at the blade, feeling as if he were holding a sharp sword, and dared not touch its edge again. This was an instinct; at this moment, the Merit and Fame was enough to easily break through his Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon and easily pierce his physical body.

"I have achieved Physical Body Sainthood, but I have not yet condensed and developed my own physical sainthood technique. After undergoing the baptism of Human Tribulation, my physical body is only at the level of Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon." Li Hao's eyes flashed, and he immediately realized that his physical body still had great potential for improvement.

Although the physical body has been cultivated to its Terminal Realm, there is still a possibility of improvement in the Physical Body Saint Dao. This improvement relies on the Tribulation Power. This power can Destruction everything, and it can also protect everything. It is the Origin power of Heaven and Earth.

"With this Emperor Weapon, even the other old Three Tribulations Saint will have to avoid your sharp edge." Feng Boping glanced at the Emperor Sword in Li Hao's hand, his eyes revealing joy and a smile.

Li Hao knew that although the Green Lantern Buddha and the Ancestor Xu were ancient Three Tribulations Saint, they were not among the top, while Old Feng was referring to those who were second only to the Supreme Saint.

Li Hao communicated with the Spirit Consciousness of the Merit and Fame, and comprehended its wonderful uses. In addition to its sharpness, the Merit and Fame also gave birth to a special ability: by reciting the name of an enemy, one could trace the cause and effect of that enemy, and lock onto them no matter how far away they were.

If the Green Lantern Buddha were to escape again using the Green Lantern, he could use his Merit and Fame to track him down. This would compensate for his lack of Movement Method, allowing him to track down his enemies no matter where they fled.

"If I were to endure even more tribulations, I could simply call out his name from thousands of miles away, and he would slay Merit and Fame for me."

Li Hao's eyes flashed. In fact, the current Merit and Fame also has such ability. To deal with the Three Tribulations Saint who does not have the Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon, Li Hao only needs to say the name and the appearance and Aura of the other party will appear in his mind, and the Merit and Fame can lock onto the person and fly to kill them!

Such ability is simply terrifying.

As his strength improved, Li Hao felt joy but also realized that he still needed to become stronger.

The Source Ancestor possessed Seven Tribulations Emperor Weapon. Li Hao inquired with Old Feng, and learned that the Primal Chaos Saint also possessed a Sixth Tribulation Emperor Weapon that he had once displayed.

"The Merit and Fame are already so terrifying at only the Second Tribulation; the power of Sixth Tribulation Emperor Weapon is beyond imagination. This is a gap that even the Extreme Realm cannot bridge." "If my other two saints were to pass through two tribulations, my physical body would likely be strengthened even further!"

Li Hao's eyes flickered as he pondered. Others undergo three tribulations, but he would undergo Nine Tribulations.

But while calamities may bring Destruction, they can also lead to rebirth and make one stronger!

However, before that, Li Hao planned to cultivate the All Heavens Star Meridian to its ultimate level.

He has now cultivated over a thousand Qi Meridian, yet it seems there is still no end in sight. Li Hao does not believe that this path has no end. If one could truly compare it to the countless Xingchen in the sky, then there would be countless Qi Meridian. This path alone could lead to a level that is practically invincible.

Li Hao wasn't in a hurry. The more Qi Meridian he could condense, the better. He even hoped that this path had no end. After the Lightning Tribulation incident Past, half a month later, no one in the Sacred Land was discussing it anymore.

Meanwhile, Li Hao was quietly cultivating his Qi Meridian in the Small Courtyard.

In the past two weeks, his Qi Meridian have condensed to 1,100.

The power brought by the Qi Meridian alone is more than ten times that of the Extreme Realm of the Heaven and Earth Meridian!

It's important to understand that the Qi Meridian can hold far more power than the Mortal Meridian of the body. In fact, the power he can instantly condense is nearly a hundred times that of the Heaven and Earth Meridian! This is the terrifying nature of the Terminal Realm, and he hasn't even reached the end yet, unlike the Divine Blood, which has already reached the Ultimate of Strength Channeling.

That day, as he was practicing his Xingchen Qi Meridian in the courtyard as usual, someone suddenly came to visit him.

The visitor was an inner disciple of the Sacred Land. Li Hao was puzzled, as no one dared to disturb him outside his courtyard on ordinary days. Even the Saint Child like Lin Baichuan had been warned by Old Feng not to disturb him lightly.

What do you want?

Li Hao stopped his cultivation and asked the inner disciple a question.

The other person's face was pale. Seeing Li Hao's Aura of the Great Dao, he became even more trembling and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Sage, someone is looking for you. She asked me to come and inform you that her name is Xiaoxiao, and she wants to meet you at Wu Ming Mountain outside the Sacred Land." Li Hao smiled slightly.

His eyes flickered slightly; could it be something to do with the God Race?

His mind raced, and he immediately understood. He didn't punish the inner disciple; the other party had been captured by Ying Xiaoxiao to deliver a message. Ying Xiaoxiao's identity was sensitive, and she couldn't enter the Thief Heaven Sacred Land, lest Old Feng discover her presence. Therefore, she had to send someone else to deliver the message.

He dismissed the man, then rose and stepped out of a crack in the Heaven and Earth.

He didn't go to the Mortal World to bring Yu Emperor and other old acquaintances here because he was concerned about the enormous impact of the war between the God Race and planned to wait until God Race calmed down before making a decision. No one knew how much chaos that God Race Progenitor would cause at that time.

Soon, Li Hao arrived at Wu Ming Mountain, not far from the Sacred Land.

Upon arriving, Li Hao glanced around and saw an Aura appear. Li Hao Ying Xiaoxiao, dressed in Green-Robed, floated before Li Hao like a flower, her eyes fixed on him before she smiled and said:

Aren't you afraid that someone might use my name to lure you out and harm you?

She had calculated the time in her mind; the inner disciple the Sacred Land whom he had captured while on a mission should have just arrived to report, yet Li Hao appeared here, indicating that the other party hadn't hesitated at all.

Thinking of this, the smile in her eyes brightened considerably, and the gloom in her heart seemed to dissipate. "Do many people know your name?"

Li Hao smiled.

Ying Xiaoxiao immediately understood Li Hao's meaning and scoffed, "What if I have malicious intent?"

Li Hao sighed and said, "Let's get straight to the point. Did you call me because your God Race Progenitor has been resurrected? That's quite fast."

Although Li Hao skipped her question, Ying Xiaoxiao wasn't angry. Instead, she felt a strange sense of joy. He seemed to trust her completely, and she truly had never intended to harm Li Hao.

However, thinking of what her Progenitor had entrusted to her, the smile on her face gradually faded, and her brows furrowed slightly.

"The Progenitor has indeed revived and is preparing to wage war against the Source Ancestor. When the Primordial Progenitor was sealed away, it was the Source Ancestor who led a coalition of many Supreme Saints. Now, the Progenitor intends to deal with them one by one. However, these Supreme Saints are not simple characters. Once the war begins, they will surely sense it quickly and launch a thunderous offensive to seize the initiative in a swift battle..."

She spoke in a low voice, revealing the God Race's plans to Li Hao. If Li Hao betrayed them, it would be a significant blow to the God Race. However, she felt she couldn't bring herself to say what she was going to say if she didn't.

Li Hao was somewhat surprised to hear the other party reveal these things. After all, he came from that Divine General Residence; how much impact would this Intelligence have on the war? Was he really that trustworthy?

He didn't speak, but simply waited quietly for the other party to continue.

Ying Xiaoxiao continued, "The Progenitor said that if war breaks out, the Source Ancestor will most likely also rally other forces. Your performance has been outstanding, and the Source Ancestor will definitely try to recruit you into his camp. As long as you strike at the crucial moment and ambush the Source Ancestor, if you succeed, Ultimate Dao Power that were killed or wounded in this war will be given to you. I can Dao Heart Oath that what I said is true."

At this point, she quickly made a vow with her Dao Heart and looked at Li Hao earnestly.

Li Hao remained silent. Even though the other party hadn't Dao Heart Oath, he believed what they said was true. However, this was only the other party's guarantee; it didn't mean that the Progenitor would actually guarantee it.

After all, he wasn't familiar with that God Race Progenitor.

"Is this the condition for winning me over? Is there anything else?" Li Hao asked.

Assassinating the Source Ancestor was an extremely dangerous undertaking, and Li Hao had no confidence whatsoever. After all, the opponent's power at the Incense God Realm alone was terrifying.

Moreover, all the information he currently possesses, including Old Feng's mention of the Seven Tribulations Emperor Weapon, is already known to the Source Ancestor. So, are there any hidden trump cards?

Without a doubt, it certainly exists. And it is extremely terrifying.

Ying Xiaoxiao heard Li Hao ask this, her cheeks suddenly flushed slightly. She turned her head and casually glanced at the surrounding scenery before saying, "And Incense offerings. You will be given Incense from three Small World, all of which you will rule and control."

"Is there anything else?" Li Hao asked.

A flash of embarrassment and annoyance crossed Ying Xiaoxiao's eyes as she said, "That's all!"

Upon hearing this, Li Hao's eyes showed a hint of disappointment. These were not enough to make him take such a big risk. He could accumulate both Incense offerings and Ultimate Dao Power slowly.

Once he reaches the God Realm in his Daoist practice, the Incense Path of Sacrifice and Ultimate Dao Power will likely have accumulated sufficiently. Besides, by then, he will be able to obtain whatever he desires.

Therefore, giving him these things in advance is not very meaningful.

Li Hao had little interest in participating in this war between the God Race and the Source Ancestor, but since it concerned the woman before him, Li Hao asked, "If the war breaks out, will you also participate?"

Ying Xiaoxiao saw the disappointment and resistance in Li Hao's eyes. She felt a little lost, but also secretly pleased. In that case, Li Hao wouldn't have to take the risk.

"Of course I will. As God Daughter, I must be at the forefront," Ying Xiaoxiao said.

Li Hao remained silent for a moment, then said, "I can't handle the assassination of the Source Ancestor, but if you're in trouble, come to me. I will do everything in my power to protect you, but only you."
