Indeed, that would be me

As Origin Principle flowed into his body, surrounded by a rich Aura of Dao Resonance, Li Hao sat upright in the Courtyard. His surroundings resembled a Chaos Star, with the Great Dao colliding and emitting brilliant Divine Radiance light, accompanied by the faint sound of thunder.

His entire Dao Bone was covered with patterns of Principle, and his Divine Blood flowed with the power of order, as if he were one with Heaven and Earth.

That year, Li Hao refined the Origin the Principle every day. The extraordinary insights brought by the Ninth Dan of the Imperial Dao gave him the ability to directly perceive the Origin of all things in Heaven and Earth, All Things, fire Thunder and Lightning, etc. As the Principle were refined and Myriad Daos were forged into his Dao body, Li Hao felt that his physical body seemed to be reaching an even more terrifying level.

His flesh and blood had already transformed to the extreme, but while his flesh and blood could contain the Principle and his own Sacred Dao, his overall strength was still constantly increasing. The Physical Terminal Realm was like an extremely solid piece of soil, allowing Li Hao to bear these powers.

"Merit and Fame..."

Li Hao took out the Merit and Fame, and a faint light of tribulation appeared on the dark blade, with ripples appearing in the space at the sword's edge.

He casually slashed his hand with his sword, and immediately felt the Law Power rebound rapidly from the flesh and blood of his hand, transforming into a terrifying force of order, ready to counterattack his Merit and Fame.

However, the Tribulation Power on the Merit and Fame Sword is destructive, tearing apart the Law Power layer by layer, eventually leaving a bloody mark. When it cuts into the bone, it stimulates the Principle Dao Patterns on the Dao Bone, dispersing the Tribulation Power, and the Merit and Fame are also deflected.

A hint of surprise flashed in Li Hao's eyes. His Merit and Fame had endured Second Tribulation, and he could slay the Three Tribulations Saint as easily as cutting through mud and snow, yet now he couldn't even pierce through their bones. Moreover, he hadn't even entered a defensive stance yet.

"Once my Divine Blood Dao Bone Perfection, I'm afraid I can withstand even Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon level." Li Hao murmured to himself, his eyes gleaming with anticipation for the Hearing Dao Extreme Realm. Swoosh!

A figure suddenly appeared in the Small Courtyard. Li Hao glanced over casually and laughed, "Old Feng, that's not very kind of you. You didn't even take me fishing."

Feng Boping, carrying his fishing basket, flicked it, and three Demon soared out, their bodies rapidly expanding to thousands of feet in size, hovering above the Small Courtyard. "Sage, spare my life! Sage, spare my life..."

Upon sensing Li Hao's Aura, the three Demon felt as if they had fallen into Abyss, their fear growing even stronger. They trembled and pleaded, "I didn't go to the Heavenly River, just wandered around the Small Thousand Realm. Which one do you think would be suitable to accompany a drink?"

Feng Boping asked with a smile.

All three Demons were powerful Great Demon at the Dao Inquiry Realm, overlords of their respective regions, and top-tier powerhouses worshipped by the Divine Dynasty in the Mortal World.

Hearing this, the three Demons were even more frightened. Normally, they would capture Human Race, skin them, and eat them, but now that they had fallen into the hands of Human Race Sage, their status had been reversed.

"This one in the middle, we can raise the other two a bit longer." Li Hao glanced at them and said casually, knowing that Old Feng just showing off his Catch and asking for a free meal. Well, that was fine too, after all, his skills were top-notch throughout the Heavenly Realms.

"Okay."

Feng Boping laughed, his face full of wrinkles. He left the middle Demon, which was howling even more pitifully, behind, and put the remaining two into the fish basket.

He casually sealed the mouth of the wailing Demon and said to Li Hao, "On my way back, I saw the Sage from the Source Ancestor Sacred Land outside the Small Thousand Realm coming over. I guess they're here to see you again."

Li Hao raised an eyebrow slightly. He had already clearly declined the last invitation, and the other party should already know his stance. Now that they were short-handed, he said, "Come on over, let's eat first."

Li Hao didn't bother to think too much. He casually unleashed a Sword Qi that pierced the Divine Soul of the wailing, Anger Demon, and then began to process the fresh ingredients. He cooked them in different ways, boiling, stir-frying, steaming, and deep-frying, preparing different parts of the animal in different ways.

As Li Hao was making it, the aroma wafted through the air, and Feng Boping happily went back to get the wine.

As the wine and meat were cooked, Li Hao Old Feng were halfway through their meal when suddenly a gust of wind arrived outside the Thief Heaven Sacred Land, inquiring about the Sacred Land's grand formation. Feng Boping's appetite was interrupted; he smacked his lips, but upon seeing the newcomer, he still got up and let him in.

"You two..."

Besides the Sage from the Source Ancestor Sacred Land, the Lie Heaven Saint also arrived. Smelling the fragrant aroma filling the courtyard and seeing the dishes floating in the Void, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Upon seeing an acquaintance, Li Hao immediately invited her to join him for a meal.

The Sage of the Source Ancestor Sacred Land frowned slightly. Outside, the God Race and the Source Ancestor were locked in fierce combat, on the verge of a complete and utter battle. Meanwhile, the people on this side were enjoying fine wine and food, completely oblivious to the chaos.

He approached discreetly, smiling slightly, "Lord Haotian, it's been a year. Has your health improved somewhat?" "Much better."

Li Hao smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern."

"Recently, the Devil Race has become increasingly rampant and cruel. The Source Ancestor will hold Demon Slaying Assembly and invites Sage from all sides to attend. I hope that Lord Haotian will not be absent." This Sage got straight to the point.

The Demon Slaying Assembly? Li Hao raised an eyebrow slightly and pondered, "Since the Source Ancestor has extended such a warm invitation, I will certainly not be absent."

"Then I'll wait for you all at the Demon Slaying Assembly." After explaining the time and details, the Sage gave Li Hao a meaningful look before leaving the Thief Heaven Sacred Land.

"Is the Source Ancestor planning to fight the God King?" After the man left, Lie Heaven Saint finished drinking a bowl of meat soup, licked the soup stains from the corner of his mouth, and asked Li Hao with a pleasant smile.

"How could Haotian know these things? This Demon Slaying Assembly is probably not simple," Feng Boping said, frowning.

Li Hao looked at Lie Heaven Saint, only to see the other man reveal a sly smile, as if he had seen through his thoughts. "You seem to know more about the affairs of the God Race than we do."

The Lie Heaven Saint smiled and said, "Mentioning the God Race makes me feel like you're hiding something. Don't forget I'm the Sage of Lies; I can see right through you."

Li Hao was speechless for a moment, then said, "With your intelligence, you'll end up alone." "Hmph!"

Lie Heaven Saint glanced at Feng Boping, then snorted coldly and lowered his head to select other dishes.

Feng Boping's expression was slightly unnatural. He coughed lightly and said to Li Hao, "The Source Ancestor sent someone from afar to invite you; it's not that simple. You should be careful." "Mm."

Li Hao nodded. Several days later.

Li Hao and Feng Boping, in their avatars, left the Small Thousand Realm together and headed to the Heaven Origin Realm.

Upon arriving in the Heaven Origin Realm, Li Hao found it quiet and peaceful. In the Source Ancestor Sacred Land, he only sensed the Aura of two Sages, one of whom he found somewhat familiar. "Hmm?" Feng Boping's eyes flickered.

Li Hao narrowed his eyes slightly. Could the invitation from the Demon Slaying Assembly be a trap?

At this moment, a Sage Aura from the Source Ancestor Sacred Land broke through the air and arrived in front of Li Hao. He glanced at Li Hao and his expression became more complicated. "You seem to have become stronger again," Xiao Yu said in a low voice.

Previously, Li Hao Source Ancestor's Cave Mansion, where he had already become a saint and had met Li Hao once. Now, seeing him again, he felt that Li Hao's aura was even more profound, as if the Great Dao was always accompanying him. "Where is the Source Ancestor?" Li Hao asked.

"The Source Ancestor guards the Devil Race in the Void Sky Abyss, where the Demon Slaying Assembly is also held. Please follow me." Xiao Yu seemed to see their concerns and smiled. Li Hao and Feng Boping exchanged a glance, but still followed him and stepped into the Source Ancestor Sacred Land.

Upon reaching the Saint Mountain, Li Hao saw a massive Void Rift leading to the unknown.

"That's the Void Sky Abyss over there. Please, both of you. Master has been waiting for you for quite some time," Xiao Yu said. Feng Boping exclaimed in surprise, "This place is billions of miles away from the Void Sky Abyss. The Source Ancestor actually..."

A rare smile appeared on Xiao Yu's lips. "Master has a wide range of interests and has also done some research on the Void Dao."

Li Hao's eyes were solemn. To maintain a Void Rift that spanned such a vast distance, the Source Ancestor's mastery of the Void was probably not much inferior to that of the Ancestor Xu. He concentrated his Divine Power in his eyes and saw a blurry scene deep within the Void Rift. It was indeed the Void Sky Abyss. Only then was he relieved and immediately flew Past.

Feng Boping suddenly stepped forward and stood at the edge of the crevice. Dao Resonance seemed to gather at his fingertips. Soon, his expression relaxed, and he chuckled, "It's quite lively." As he spoke, he gave Li Hao a reassuring look and then stepped into the crevice first.

Li Hao smiled slightly and followed closely behind.

After they went in, Xiao Yu followed them into the crevice. He stayed there to wait for Li Hao. Soon, only one Sage remained on the Saint Mountain.

The Void Sky Abyss is located at the edge of the Void.

Star River can be seen all around, dazzling and radiant with divine light.

Millions of miles away lies a dark Void chasm, like a broken waterfall of the Void, seemingly capable of washing away the countless stars in the sky.

At the end of the rift Heaven and Earth that Li Hao had traversed, there was a grand gathering place shrouded in Barrier, like Jade Pool suspended in the Void, with nectar and jade liquid gushing out from all directions, emitting a strange fragrance.

Many Sage sat serenely in the Void, surrounded by the primordial energy of the Great Dao, chatting casually.

The arrival of Li Hao and Feng Boping immediately attracted a lot of attention. More than half of the Sage had seen Li Hao before, and their eyes immediately showed a hint of surprise. "That Lord Haotian has also arrived. This fierce god is not to be trifled with."

"So what? Who dares to disrespect the Source Ancestor?" "That's right, even the Food Sacred Capital here, let alone him."

"It seems the Devil Race is nearing its end. The Source Ancestor is, after all, the Source Ancestor. The Devil Race have endured these past years with cruel methods; they deserve to be exterminated." "Will the Demon King finally reveal himself this time?"

"It's hard to say. That Demon King's mount is also very ferocious. The Three Calamities alone can't handle it." Many Sage whispered among themselves, their eyes occasionally glancing at the figures at the very top of the Demon Slaying Assembly.

The Source Ancestor sat in the center, and below him was another Sage from the Source Ancestor Sacred Land, with white eyebrows and white hair, who looked extremely refined.

Beside them stood three Sages, their Aura as powerful as a furnace, surrounded by the Great Dao. The Divine Radiance of the Great Dao behind them illuminated a vast Void, dazzlingly bright. They chatted casually with the Source Ancestor, and upon hearing the discussions outside, they glanced sideways at Li Hao.

At this moment, Li Hao flew over with Feng Boping's avatar. "Source Ancestor."

Li Hao nodded slightly as a greeting, then glanced at the white-browed, white-haired Sage. The sage's Sacred Dao was restrained, and his Aura was somewhat obscure, but Li Hao sensed that the sage seemed to be no ordinary person.

Furthermore, the three Sage beside him, who had manifested the Great Dao, were also stronger than ordinary Three Tribulations Saint. "You've arrived, please sit."

Source Ancestor saw Li Hao and spoke to him with a kind smile. Li Hao immediately sat down next to Feng Boping.

"You haven't appeared in public for a long time. I've heard that a Sage has recently emerged who is extremely brilliant. He was able to kill the Three Tribulations Saint as soon as he became a saint. Is that you, sir?" A Sage wearing Black Hat said with a calm smile.

Li Hao, sensing the barb in his words, glanced at him and said, "If there is no one else in the Heavenly Realms, then it can only be me."

Upon hearing this, the Sage in the Black Hat raised an eyebrow, and many Sages at the banquet outside couldn't help but turn their heads. Some of them had been asked by Li Hao for Heaven and Earth Treasures, and harbored deep resentment towards Li Hao. Hearing Li Hao's arrogant response, they both sneered and were secretly annoyed. Indeed, there was no other Prodigy like him in Heavenly Realms.

"Heh, doesn't that mean you possess the aptitude to surpass even the Supreme Saint?" The Sage in the Black Hat hadn't expected Li Hao to be so confrontational, and couldn't help but sneer slightly. "If that's what you think, there's nothing I can do about it," Li Hao said calmly.

That's a killer move for men.

"Be careful, this is Star Saint, and he has a good relationship with the Ancestor Xu. He's probably causing you trouble because of the Ancestor Xu," Feng Boping transmitted his voice.

"The Ancestor Xu lived a life of seclusion, avoiding conflict with the world for many years, yet you killed him and even wiped out the Void Sacred Land. Your temperament is not much different from that of the Devil Race!" The Black Hat turned cold.

"So many years have passed, why did he die? Has he reflected on his own actions? Did he not try hard enough?" Li Hao said indifferently, "There are many other All Heavens Saints present. Why did I choose to kill him when I could kill the Sage?"

Star Saint remained silent. He was somewhat angry, but showing it would be a loss of composure, so he chose to remain silent.

"Star Saint has cultivated for countless Years, and is only one step away from becoming Supreme Saint. As a junior, aren't you going a bit too far with your words?" At this moment, another Sage dressed in black robes said coldly.

His voice was magnetic, and he seemed to have an extremely tough personality.

Li Hao glanced at it and calmly said, "So even Sage are ranked by seniority?" "Gentlemen..."

At this moment, the Source Ancestor spoke up, interrupting their conversation with a smile. He raised his wine cup and said, "Today is a grand gathering to slay demons. Leaving aside other matters, the Devil Race have also arrived. Is there anyone among you willing to bring Devil Race's head to add to the festivities?"

As they spoke, millions of miles away from the grand gathering, at the edge of the Void rift, a vast and mighty group of figures swept in. Li Hao gazed Past and saw a large army of people, clad in golden Divine Armor, standing at the edge of the Void Sky Abyss.

Compared to the vast army over there, the number of people here is less than one ten-thousandth.

But these were all Sage, and strange phenomena were occurring all over the place. Their momentum was no less than that of the God Race army.

Li Hao saw that at the very front of the God Race army, a man stood atop the Dragon God's head, towering and imposing, clad in magnificent Divine Armor that blazed like Blazing Flame, and holding a heavy sword in his hand.

A crimson cloak billowed behind him, and his terrifying aura, as vast as the heavens, pressed down on the Star River. This must be the God King.

Beside the other person, Li Hao also saw a familiar figure: Ying Xiaoxiao.

She wore a form-fitting, exquisitely crafted Divine Armor, her flowing black hair billowing behind her helmet, revealing a pair of clear, cold eyes. When Li Hao saw her, she seemed to see Li Hao as well, her Deity momentarily startled.

"That must be the Haotian you mentioned, right? Ha, am I wrong? He's already become an honored guest of the Source Ancestor!"

The God King's gaze was sharp. He glanced at the Source Ancestor, then swept his eyes across the scene of the grand gathering. He had obviously seen Li Hao's projection through other channels and recognized him at a glance.
