Immortal Deity Remains
When Source Ancestor and many Sage arrived here, they remained calm and showed little surprise. When the Ancient Hall was first revealed to the world, a fierce struggle had broken out over it.
Among the broken cracks at the end of the passage were many traces left from their struggle.
The God King gazed at the empty space on the steps, where a bronze throne should have stood. He had ceded it to the Source Ancestor during the struggle for it, but even now, the Primordial Ancestor had failed to become Immortal Deity.
"Snort."
The God King snorted coldly, glanced at the Source Ancestor, and strode away.
Ancient Hall, the area that the Sage could explore had basically been explored, and nothing of value had been left behind. Li Hao followed them through the passageways, all the way into the Ancient Hall.
This Ancient Hall is Secret Realm in itself, extremely vast, resembling the Imperial Palace of a Divine Dynasty.
The vast General Review Platform is lined with several ancient Sculpture, each depicting a towering, exceptionally handsome young man. His gaze is fixed on the Ancient Hall ahead, his eyes seemingly reflecting Star River, lifelike and vivid.
Li Hao narrowed his eyes slightly. The Sculpture was surrounded by Dao Resonance, and he had a vague feeling that touching Sculpture might trigger some unexpected situation.
In addition, the level of this Sculpture is extremely high, with at least eight or nine sections, sealing away a trace of the opponent's Dao Resonance within it. Even if only one percent can be captured, it still gives people a feeling of not daring to look directly at it.
"These are the ancient Immortal Deity."
A Sage gazed up at the Sculpture, his eyes shining with longing.
Although immortals Immortal Deity have vanished, they left behind various relics that have unveiled a corner of their Immortal Deity, making them even more captivating. "Don't get close; if the Sculpture are tainted by the Great Dao, you'll suffer the consequences."
The senior Three Tribulations Saint gave a reminder to some Sage who had not been there before.
Li Hao noticed that the heads of two Sculpture were broken off, and their Dao Resonance had dissipated, likely due to the exploration back then. "This is the Worship Immortal Platform, and that's the Heaven Worship Platform over there; we've already explored both."
Source Ancestor introduced Li Hao, who was following behind him, in a low voice.
"Records from other ruins and documents from certain ancient Aristocratic Clan indicate that their Aristocratic Clan had contact with Immortal Deity, and were invited here as guests." "The Worship Immortal Platform is where the Master of the Ancient Hall received the worship of Immortal Deity. This Master of the Ancient Hall not only Immortal Deity, but held an extremely high position among Immortal Deity." "Over there is the Heaven Worship Platform, where one worships the Heavenly Dao."
The Source Ancestor refers to the source.
At the end of the passage to the Worship Immortal Platform, there is a vast, high platform, as majestic as a mountain, with sacrificial flags on it, but they are tattered and faded. There is also a lot of blood there, but no other debris, suggesting that it has been looted as well.
Li Hao glanced at it silently; Old Feng had told him about these things before.
"That's the Sealing Dao Platform, the true core of the Ancient Hall. It requires the Sixth Extreme Realm to open. Besides the Path to Immortality, there should be quite a few treasures inside."
Source Ancestor led the way, smiling slightly at Li Hao, "This time, we're only able to get in because of you. Once inside, feel free to choose whatever treasures are available." The God King sneered, remaining silent.
Li Hao simply nodded slightly. No one knew what was going on inside. If there really were top-tier treasures, who would let him choose first? But the other party's nice words were certainly pleasing.
Before long, the group arrived in Sealing Dao Platform.
The Ancient Hall was vast and contained many mechanisms and restrictions, but the outer areas had already been explored, so the journey was unimpeded.
As everyone arrived at the Sealing Dao Platform, Li Hao's expression turned solemn. It was a gatehouse, yet it was surrounded by a rich Aura of Dao Resonance energy, faintly containing the power to cut through the Void.
If you force your way in, you will inevitably trigger something. "This is a True Martial Eight Extremes Formation!"
Source Ancestor raised his hand, and a wisp of power touched the center of the ancient gate tower, just like touching water ripples in the air, creating waves.
At the same time, a hidden restriction inside was revealed.
"Except for the Extreme Realm Power, we possess all the other Extreme Realm Power," said the Source Ancestor.
This True Martial Eight Extremes Formation was discovered by many Sages at the cost of their lives, and it was only by gathering the power of many top formation masters from Heavenly Realms that it was cracked. It requires the Extreme Realm Power of the Martial Dao Eight Realms to be filled in sequentially in order to open this formation.
As soon as the Source Ancestor finished speaking, all the saints' eyes fell on Li Hao.
The God King and the Primal Chaos Saint, among others, all stared intently at Li Hao. Of Heavenly Realms, only this young man possessed the mysterious Sixth Extreme Realm.
Li Hao appeared calm, but he knew that once the formation was activated, his uniqueness would no longer matter. He would then have to rely on his own abilities to survive. Given the current situation, he couldn't refuse. Behind this Dao Gate lay something that all the All Heavens Saints craved.
He took a deep breath and revealed his Extreme Realm Power one by one.
The Martial Dao Eight Realms are: Strength Channeling, Heavenly Circuit, Soul Inheritance, Spirit Roaming, Fifteen Li, Heaven and Man Realm, Three Immortalities, Four Establishments!
The corresponding Extreme Realm are Divine Power, Heaven and Earth Meridian, Heaven and Earth Dharma Form, Primordial Spirit, returning to Return to the Ruins, Immortal Transformation, Undying and Imperishable, and Eternal Dao Domain! As the Extreme Realm Power such as Divine Power and Heaven and Earth Meridian gradually manifested, Li Hao sent these powers into the True Martial Eight Extremes Formation that appeared before him. Dao Light appeared in the formation and were lit up one by one.
Upon reaching the Sixth Extreme Realm, Li Hao's hair turned silver-white. He drew upon the Power of Heaven and Earth, channeling this Immortal Power into the formation. A dazzling silver-white light shone within the formation, making the entire formation incredibly radiant.
Aside from Immortal Transformation, they have already mastered other Extreme Realm, such as Source Ancestor and other Sacred Capital.
However, knowing that Li Hao also possessed this knowledge, no one else intervened, leaving it to Li Hao alone to activate.
As the power of the Eternal Dao Domain surged in, the light of the True Martial Eight Extremes Formation shone brighter than ever before. The eight powers suddenly rotated, transforming into a hazy Chaos power. Then, some ancient, sealed restriction slowly opened.
The ripples in front of the gatehouse dissipated like a curtain of water.
The scene inside was drastically different from what they had seen before; it was a dark, cold passage, like a cave in the mountainside, with a pervasive stench of decay emanating from it.
The expressions of all the saints changed slightly, their faces becoming solemn!
Source Ancestor's figure suddenly rushed out and quickly entered the gatehouse.
Another crimson figure also sped out, almost as fast as him; it was none other than the God King, who had been poised to strike.
Seeing that these two had taken the lead, the other Supreme Saint did not linger either. Although everything inside was unknown and there were hidden dangers, fortune favors the bold. If they fell behind, they would miss out on any treasures inside.
The Law Saint, the Medicine Saint, the Ink Saint, and others all quickly gave Past.
Li Hao glanced at them and followed closely behind, while secretly keeping a watchful eye on the other Sage.
Before this Sealing Dao Platform was opened, no one would attack him. Even if they did, the Source Ancestor and the others would help him and prevent him from getting hurt. But now it's different. He's no longer of any use to them.
Fortunately, everyone was eager to explore inside, and no one bothered him.
Li Hao followed behind the Supreme Saint and saw that there were many corpses along the way in this dark passage, already decomposed into white bones.
The air was filled with a foul stench of corpses. Li Hao scanned the bodies and saw that the bones all had Dao Patterns, just like his, and they had condensed Dao Bone! But it seemed that they had not been able to refine their Divine Blood into Dao Power, otherwise their flesh and blood would have remained together with their Dao Bone, and they would not have rotted into white bones.
Li Hao didn't rush to catch up. If there were truly treasures, those Supreme Saints would surely fight over them. Rather than that, it was better to walk slowly and avoid the spying of the Primal Chaos Saint. While Li Hao walked and looked around, the other Sage rushed to catch up, and some of them quickly overtook Li Hao.
"These corpses are mostly those of Immortal Deity."
The Sword Master caught up with Li Hao, slowed down, and said in a low, solemn voice.
"Stop looking! With so many Immortal Deity corpses, there must be Path to Immortal Deities among them!"
The Sword Saint swept past, speaking swiftly before turning and chasing after them into the depths of the passage without looking back. The Sword Master glanced at Li Hao and said, "Are you worried about the Primal Chaos Saint?"
Li Hao nodded slightly and said to him, "You go first, don't worry about me." The Sword Master thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I'll go check the situation first."
He knew that if he stayed by Li Hao's side, he wouldn't be able to help Li Hao if the Primal Chaos Saint wanted to deal with him.
When Li Hao encountered trouble in the Buddhist Sect, he could still alleviate the crisis by drawing his sword, but the enemy Li Hao faces now is far beyond his ability to handle. Although there is only one step between the Three Calamities and the Supreme Saint, there is a world of difference between them.
"Immortal Deity Remains... Can Immortal Deity die?"
Li Hao's eyes flickered slightly. Old Feng had said that the extinction of Immortal Deity was due to some terrible crisis, Heaven and Earth calamity. Were the Immortal Deity Remains the result of that Heaven and Earth calamity?
"Could it be murderous intent from Heavenly Dao?"
Li Hao's eyes showed contemplation. The corpses in the passage before him, along with the various traces in the Ancient Hall, all confirmed the existence of Immortal Deity. But besides the Heavenly Dao Power, Li Hao couldn't think of anything else that could cause the fall of Immortal Deity.
But now he can sense the Heavenly Dao Will, and having reached the pinnacle of Immortal Transformation, he can barely control the power of Heavenly Dao. He feels that Heavenly Dao has no ill intentions towards all living beings, and regards them as Flowers and Grass. This is not indifference, but a tolerant attitude of letting things circulate freely.
If it wasn't a cataclysmic calamity of Heavenly Dao, what other tribulation could have caused even immortals Immortal Deity, beings surpassing Sage, to perish here?
Li Hao darted through the passage and soon emerged into a grand hall, where several forces erupted, vying for a broken spear shaft. The spearhead was broken, and the shaft, cast in bronze, exuded an ancient Aura and emanated a subtle, primordial Tribulation Power.
Li Hao is now extremely sensitive to Tribulation Power, and he could tell at a glance that this broken spear was definitely an extremely terrifying Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon. Although it was damaged, it was still comparable to a fifth or even sixth tribulation Emperor Weapon.
The Law Saint and the Ink Saint were vying for one, while the Medicine Saint and the Name Saint were fighting over another Amber Orb. Indeed, there were treasures in the hall, and the Supreme Saint noticed them immediately.
While they scrambled for it, other Sage searched everywhere.
Although they knew the treasure the Supreme Saint were fighting over was extremely valuable, the Saints couldn't afford to be envious and had to look for something else. There was Sculpture of the young man inside the hall, but no one dared to approach it. The Sculpture here were clad in Battle Armor and seemed even more imposing.
Li Hao glanced around and saw that the figures of the Source Ancestor and the God King were gone. He didn't bother to participate in the scramble around him and continued forward. At the end of the hall, there were three Forked Path in the road.
Li Hao noticed that both Forked Path contained residual Aura, belonging to the Source Ancestor and the God King, respectively. The central path contained the Aura of other Supreme Saint, such as the Primal Chaos Saint and the Dragon Saint.
Li Hao's eyes flickered slightly, but he ultimately stopped and did not continue forward.
He returned to the main hall and looked at the saints scrambling and searching everywhere. He felt that they were no different from country bandits.
He chose a high spot, plopped down on the Meditation Cushion in front of the Sculpture, and waited for their scramble to end, and for Source Ancestor and his group to finish their exploration, to see if there really was Path to Immortality.
After all, it was a path leading to the abode of Immortal Deity, so Li Hao couldn't help but feel a bit curious.
He sat there Non-Contention for anything, a stark contrast to the other saints around him who were searching and plundering the strange and wonderful treasures within the hall.
As he looked around, he suddenly felt the Meditation Cushion he was sitting on collapse, and waves of suction surged into his body, drawing in and absorbing the power within him. Li Hao was startled, quickly stood up, and looked at the Meditation Cushion with surprise and doubt.
The Meditation Cushion was gray and looked unchanged. Li Hao tried to release his power quietly and found that it was indeed absorbed by the Meditation Cushion. But the Meditation Cushion was like a bottomless pit, absorbing a large amount of power without any change.
Just as Li Hao was about to put away the Meditation Cushion to investigate what kind of strange treasure it was, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the Sculpture in front of him. Immediately afterwards, Li Hao saw Dao Light shoot out from the statue's eyes and envelop his body.
Then, a Law Power of Space Origin enveloped him, and Li Hao felt a blur before his eyes. When he reappeared, there were two more Supreme Saint Aura beside him. This strange occurrence also alarmed the other Sage in the hall.
What about Wu Tian?
"Where did he go? It seems he triggered something and was teleported away by that statue." "Could it be the path to the Immortal Deity?!"
The many Sages who had previously fought over the treasure were immediately excited, some even abandoning their attempts to seize it and coming directly to the Sculpture. Name Saint revealed a hint of Anger in his eyes, gave up on grabbing the pearl, and came to the Meditation Cushion mat.
He stared intently, and soon discerned the clue. He raised his hand and released his power, enveloping the Meditation Cushion. Before long, the statue's eyes once again emitted light, enveloping it.
As the saints gathered before the Sculpture, Li Hao, who was the first to teleport, saw two familiar figures beside him: the Primal Chaos Saint and the Dragon Saint.
The two of them were slightly taken aback when they saw Li Hao suddenly appear there, clearly not expecting Li Hao to Descent so abruptly. When Li Hao saw the Primal Chaos Saint, his expression changed and became somewhat ugly.
He remembered the other party's Aura; it had been in the center of those three forks in the road. So, the Sculpture had teleported him directly to the depths of the central fork? Li Hao quickly scanned his surroundings, then quietly moved away.
How did you get here?
Dragon Saint asked Li Hao directly, somewhat curious. "The Source Ancestor sent me here," Li Hao replied.
The Primal Chaos Saint narrowed his eyes and sneered, "You seem afraid of something. Are you afraid of me? It seems someone told you something." The Dragon Saint glanced at him, understanding what was going on, and smiled, "Then I won't bother you any longer."
Whoosh!
Li Hao turned and ran immediately. It was a Palace Hall, but fortunately there were passageways on both sides, allowing him to escape quickly. He was cursing under his breath. He'd only wanted to sit and rest for a while, but he'd been inexplicably transported here. This was outrageous!
