The Immortal Gate in the Starry Sky (9K)
Li Hao's face was contorted with rage, filled with pain, and a Bloodlust, Slaughter urge.
He suddenly thought of the Dragon Saint who had stood in front of the ancient well earlier. The other party's expression Violence and ferocious, as if he had been influenced by the power within the ancient well.
"It can actually affect my Primordial Spirit, including my Sacred Dao will!"
Li Hao was somewhat alarmed. This Violence and frenzied emotion seemed to originate from the root of his Dao Thought, or it was like some kind of unstoppable force, like an outer garment draped over his body, guiding him. If it went on for too long, it might even get out of control and cause extremely bad things to happen.
Li Hao immediately used the power of the Immortal Transformation Realm to immerse his mind in the world, merging with it—this was the unity of heaven and man in the Celestial Realm.
That ferocious emotion gradually dissipated, and his Primordial Spirit and consciousness scattered across the vast Heaven and Earth(heaven and earth), so vast that unless this thing could affect the entire surrounding world.
Once he regained his composure, Li Hao glanced at the Dragon Saint who was frantically attacking the Small Courtyard, but instead of retaliating, he quickly retreated towards the Sculpture.
At the same time, the Aura of the Source Ancestor and the God King surrounded this place from the left and right respectively. However, their Aura were concealed and they did not reveal themselves.
Li Hao knew they had already been watching what was happening from the shadows. "You think you can escape? You can't. Everyone who tries will die!"
The Dragon Saint roared madly, seemingly out of control, his eyes bloodshot, and blood-red light seeping from his scales.
It swooped down towards Li Hao, intending to flatten the Small Courtyard as well, but its force was blocked by the silvery-gray light when it hit the Small Courtyard.
Seeing this, Li Hao was certain that the Dragon Saint had lost control and was too deeply affected by that power. He moved swiftly and arrived in front of the Sculpture.
Looking at it now, the Sculpture seems rather strange; it's attached to a wall, and there's no altar around it, as if it doesn't belong here.
Li Hao's eyes shone with Divine Radiance, his divine eye peering into the depths of the Sculpture, where the intricate textures were clearly visible, and a faint Aura of Immortal Dao power emanated from within the Sculpture.
Li Hao's eyes flashed, and he placed his palm on the Sculpture, releasing his power to extend into it. Soon, Li Hao noticed something unusual.
Behind this Sculpture, there seems to be a Void Rift.
That faint power emanated from the crack.
A look of surprise appeared in Li Hao's eyes. He looked at the Sculpture again and immediately realized that Sculpture was like a Stone Block, seemingly serving as a blockage.
Bang! The Dragon Saint's body crashed into the Small Courtyard, rebounding with Silver Light. Its roar was deafening, as if its ferocity and savagery had been unleashed, determined to destroy the Small Courtyard's restrictions, and it actually started fighting the Small Courtyard.
Hearing the constant vibrations, Li Hao felt the terrifying power of the blood in the well even more. The Supreme Dragon Emperor was now acting like a violent madman.
If he hadn't been able to merge his Primordial Spirit with the Heaven and Earth, he would most likely have become extremely irritable and easily angered by now. Li Hao didn't linger and tried to move the Sculpture away.
"Could this be the Path to Immortality?"
Li Hao's eyes flickered; that faint Immortal Power gave him a strange sense of familiarity. The legend sought by All Heavens Saints was right before his eyes, within arm's reach.
Just as they were about to move it, they immediately felt as if the Sculpture had come to life, its face radiating anger and majesty as it looked down at Li Hao.
Li Hao felt as if he had been electrocuted, his whole body stiffened, as if he were an ant standing before Deity, experiencing an intense, suffocating sense of fear.
His hand trembled, and for a moment he didn't know whether to stop or withdraw it.
The Sculpture's eyes looked down at Li Hao, stern and indifferent, as if issuing a command. The oppressive aura was silent, yet it pressed down on Li Hao's heart like ten thousand Mount Tai.
Li Hao's body stiffened, and he slowly withdrew his hand. He felt that if he continued to move it, in addition to the oppressive aura, something bad might happen.
This Sage's intuition is close to prophecy, and is by no means a delusion.
As Li Hao pondered silently, the Dragon Saint's attacks grew increasingly fierce. At this moment, two Aura hidden in the shadows revealed themselves.
Both the God King and the Source Ancestor noticed each other immediately, but they didn't reveal themselves because they wanted to see what was going on here.
Upon observation, only Li Hao and Dragon Saint were seen.
Dragon Saint's condition was extremely bad; he seemed to have gone mad, causing a huge commotion.
There were three Forked Path in the road. When the Source Ancestor and the God King saw each other, they knew that the path they had chosen was wrong, and the only correct path was right in front of them.
"Dragon Saint, please calm down and tell me what's going on here?"
The Source Ancestor appeared, intending to appease the Dragon Saint and prevent it from causing too much of a commotion that would attract the attention of other Sage.
The God King also revealed himself, but his face was cold as he stared at the Dragon Saint, as if he were about to make a move at any moment.
Seeing that the two had finally shown themselves, Li Hao's heart stirred, but he didn't make a move. Although the Path to Immortality might be behind the Sculpture, his dangerous intuition told him that he couldn't clear the way himself.
"Why should I tell you? If you want to find the Path to Immortality, it's up to your own abilities!" Dragon Saint roared, showing no politeness whatsoever to the Source Ancestor's amiable demeanor.
However, he managed to suppress his anger somewhat, preventing him from saying anything even more inflammatory.
Source Ancestor's eyes flickered slightly. The Dragon Saint's condition was too abnormal; he would never have spoken to him like this before.
"Haotian, what's going on?" Source Ancestor turned to ask Li Hao.
Li Hao's mind raced, and he honestly replied, "Gentlemen, Dragon Saint has gone mad. He's been Corruption by the blood in that well, and his mind has become deranged."
These words were the same as what the Source Ancestor and the God King had seen. However, after hearing Li Hao's words, both of them glanced at the ancient well in the courtyard. They could sense a deep and Violence energy in the well, and this energy was now quite tainted on the Dragon Saint's body.
What are you doing standing there?
Source Ancestor asked with a calm smile.
Li Hao hesitated for a moment, as if struggling with a decision, then gritted his teeth and said with a hint of reluctance:
"The Path to Immortality seems to be behind this Sculpture." "Oh?"
Upon hearing Li Hao's words, a glint flashed in the eyes of both the Source Ancestor and the God King. Even if the news was false, the words "Path to Immortality" still made their hearts tremble.
In fact, before asking the question, the Source Ancestor had already subtly sensed the Sculpture and detected a vast and ethereal power hidden within Sculpture.
Li Hao's words made him understand, and he immediately said, "I didn't expect the Path to Immortality to be here. Haotian, finding this Path to Immortality is a great deed, Heavenly Realms will thank you."
Li Hao shook his head and said, "Even without me, others would find this place sooner or later, but it wouldn't matter. I have a feeling there's danger here."
Source Ancestor hearing Li Hao's words, the lingering doubt in Yuan Zu's heart vanished. With a flicker of his figure, he traversed the Return to the Ruins, finding a trajectory in the flowing Void, and instantly arrived before Li Hao. Li Hao's expression changed; such Movement Method was too fast, even more terrifying than the Ancestor Xu's mastery of space.
If you're fighting the enemy, running away is pointless; you have no choice but to fight to the death.
When the Source Ancestor arrived in front of Li Hao, the God King also used his sword to cleave a passage and rushed to Li Hao's side, not lagging behind the Source Ancestor.
Source Ancestor glanced at the Sculpture, his pupils seemingly turning into vortexes. The Eye of Origin could trace the past, see the trajectory of cause and effect, and the traces of time.
But the Sculpture has existed for too long, and the time he can trace back to it is limited. The Sculpture has not changed in his eyes, but the Eye of Origin has another function: it can glimpse the Origin of All Things.
This is also why the Source Ancestor was able to become a saint on his own in the Primordial Era times.
As he peered into the Origin, he immediately saw a crack behind the Sculpture, from which the vast and ethereal Aura emanated.
That was not the Aura of the Sacred Dao. He had seen and felt that Aura before, and it was engraved deep in his soul. But now he felt it all at once. This was the Aura of Immortal Deity!
The Path to Immortality!
Source Ancestor's heart skipped a beat, and a hint of excitement appeared in his eyes, but he quickly restrained himself and showed no abnormality.
He nodded slightly and said, "That's right, behind this Sculpture, there might indeed be the Path to Immortality, but it seems somewhat dangerous. The path to Immortal Deity leads to a departure from this realm and into the world of Immortal Deity, perhaps due to the oppression of that world..."
He was analyzing to himself, but in reality, he was speaking to the God King.
The God King's expression remained unchanged; he simply stared intently at the Sculpture, his eyes turning pure black. The Eye of Destruction allowed him to see inside the Sculpture as well.
"Since this is the Path to Immortality, let me go first!"
At this moment, the roar of the Dragon Saint rang out above the Small Courtyard. He glared ferociously at Li Hao and said:
"Source Ancestor, God King, you can both go, but he cannot. He killed Huntian; it's too terrifying. He possesses an unparalleled Divine Weapon, which must be handed over!"
As he spoke, his true form shrank, landing in the Small Courtyard and rushing towards the three of them. Hearing Dragon Saint's words, both the Source Ancestor and the God King were taken aback and couldn't help but glance at Li Hao. Kill Huntian?
Him?
Li Hao wore a wry smile, looking helpless, but offered no explanation. "You killed Huntian?"
Upon seeing this, Source Ancestor asked in a low voice, "I don't know."
Li Hao shook his head. "Dragon Saint has gone mad, spouting nonsense. Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't have the ability."
His words were half true and half false, but they were exactly what the Source Ancestor was thinking. He knew that Huntian had designs on Li Hao, but with the Path to Immortality imminent, he was too lazy to care. Even if Huntian to cultivate to the God Realm, it wouldn't hinder him, since he was not just a power holder of the Incense God Realm.
It's not surprising that Li Hao could sense that Huntian Tian wanted to eat Li Hao, and it's even possible that other Supreme Saint would remind him.
"Huntian caused you any trouble?" Source Ancestor asked. Li Hao nodded and said, "But I managed to escape. Luckily, the environment here is complicated..." "Stop rambling. The Path to Immortality is right in front of us. Should we open it or not?"
The God King interrupted Li Hao, too lazy to listen to his explanation. In his view, no matter how Prodigy Li Hao was, he couldn't possibly kill Huntian.
Although Li Hao's previous defeat of the Star Saint was astonishing, that was all. He was still far inferior to the Supreme Saint. Moreover, Huntian was one of the most powerful Supreme Saint, especially since he had Physical Body Sainthood, making him even more terrifying than the Dragon Saint before him. No matter how Prodigy Li Hao was, he could not possibly kill him.
It's important to understand that defeating the Supreme Saint and killing the Supreme Saint are two different things.
The Supreme Saint is not stupid; if he can't win, he can escape. He has countless ways to save his life, so it's impossible for him to be killed.
Even for him, killing a Supreme Saint would be extremely difficult, requiring immense effort and prior planning. Otherwise, if the opponent was determined to escape, he might not be able to actually kill them.
Upon hearing the God King's urging, Source Ancestor's thoughts returned to the Sculpture before him. However, being cautious by nature, he still said to Li Hao:
"Ganglong Dragon Saint said you possess a peerless divine Divine Weapon, but was fortuitous opportunity find from the Ancient Hall?" "It's just a broken blade; its only use is sharpness."
Li Hao knew the other party was suspicious, and it wouldn't be believable to blame everything on Dragon Saint's madness. So he simply took out his Broken Blade, showed it to the two of them, and then slashed the blade at Dragon Saint in the distance.
Enraged, Dragon Saint roared, "You're courting death!" Blood Light surged from his body, and his hand transformed into a dragon claw, slamming down on Li Hao's head.
But the Broken Blade pierced through the Blood Light, penetrating his palm before arcing back into Li Hao's hand.
"What a fast knife!"
Source Ancestor's eyes narrowed, and the God King's eyes also flickered slightly. Both of them were somewhat surprised, not expecting that Li Hao actually possessed Divine Weapon, so sharp.
They all knew that the Dragon Saint's physical body was extremely powerful; although not as strong as Huntian's, it was still one of the top beings in Heavenly Realms.
But the Broken Blade easily pierced through his palm; it was terrifyingly sharp.
As the Broken Blade flew back into Li Hao's hand, Dragon Saint's palm had already regenerated and healed. He pounced forward, ready to fight Li Hao.
Source Ancestor frowned slightly, seeing the Dragon Saint's frenzied appearance and worried that it would affect the Sculpture. His Saint Domain was suddenly revealed, and the flow of time seemed to slow down abruptly. Then, the Dragon Saint's aura began to decline.
Li Hao's expression changed slightly; this was the first time he had witnessed the Source Ancestor in action. That Saint Domain seemed to have the effect of reversing time; it was terrifying. "Keep quiet if you don't want to die!"
The God King also turned around and shouted sternly.
The Dragon Saint was suppressed by the Source Ancestor, his Aura flickering erratically. The phantom of the Dragon Emperor appeared behind him; he was panting heavily, his eyes bloodshot, seemingly on the verge of madness.
"You're protecting him? You'll regret it!"
Source Ancestor ignored him and instead looked at the Broken Blade in Li Hao's hand. The moment Li Hao took it out, he realized that the Broken Blade was a fragment of a broken weapon and had no weapon spirit.
"Your weapon is so sharp, it might be a fragment of Immortal Artifact!"
"Source Ancestor said in a low voice."
"Perhaps, but for now, he's just sharp enough."
Li Hao said that he revealed the Broken Blade to show some of his strength and increase his standing in their eyes, so as to prevent them from attacking him recklessly.
The God King glanced at it and then looked away. He had already seen through the usefulness of the Broken Blade; it was useless except for its sharpness.
Although he had previously pierced the Dragon Saint's palm, it was meaningless; this alone was insufficient to kill the Supreme Saint.
Even if it's pierced ten thousand times, it can heal in the blink of an eye.
"They're just remnants; they pose a significant threat to the other Three Tribulations Saint." The God King shook his head, glancing at Li Hao. His luck was certainly good.
However, he had previously explored the side path and retrieved the treasure.
"Once you reach the Path to Immortality, you may have the opportunity to repair a true Immortal Artifact," the Source Ancestor said to Li Hao.
It was just Fragment, so he didn't cherish it as much; it was far inferior to his Seven Tribulations Emperor Weapon.
Besides its sharpness, the special power and Tribulation Power possessed by his Emperor Weapon are enough to pose a threat to the Sacred Capital.
"Dragon Saint, since you want to enter the Path of Immortals, then you should pave the way," the Source Ancestor said to the Dragon Saint.
Dragon Saint stared intently at Li Hao and the other two, saying, "There are dangers inside. Don't even think about using me as a stepping stone!"
"It's not up to you!"
The God King snorted coldly, and almost without saying a word, he reached a tacit agreement with the Source Ancestor. Although they were each other's greatest enemies, they attacked at the same time to capture the Dragon Saint.
Li Hao stepped back slightly, sighing inwardly, "Indeed, self-interest is Eternity."
Even mortal enemies of tens of thousands of years could temporarily set aside their hatred at this moment. "Why not him, instead of me, as a stepping stone?!" Dragon Saint roared, shouting in shock and anger.
His emotions were extremely volatile; his eyes were bloodshot and filled with resentment and hatred. "Because you're too noisy."
The God King responded coldly, Divine Flame surging from the ground beneath his feet. His Saint Domain merged with Saint Domain of the Source Ancestor at this moment. Origin and Destruction, two forces, suppressed each other. The phantom of the Dragon Emperor behind the Dragon Saint vanished instantly, and the Blood Light all over his body was suppressed into his scales. His eyes even showed a brief moment of clarity.
"You..."
Dragon Saint was so angry he vomited blood. The other party didn't believe Li Hao could kill Huntian, so Li Hao should have been the easiest target, but they chose him instead.
He suddenly rebelled, but the Source Ancestor and the God King, the two most powerful beings in the Heavenly Realms, joined forces. Under the absolute suppression of their God Realm power, the Dragon Saint's Saint Domain was shattered, and his whole body was imprisoned, making it impossible for him to even resist.
Cold sweat beaded on Li Hao's palms. If the God King and the Source Ancestor joined forces to suppress him, he would be helpless.
With these two joining forces, no one in the Heavenly Realms should be able to escape their suppression. Unfortunately, there is only one king.
"Open!"
Source Ancestor raised his hand and gently patted the Sculpture. The Sculpture, just like before, seemed to come back to life, radiating immense pressure.
Source Ancestor's expression changed slightly, but he was knowledgeable and could tell that the Sculpture was not alive, but merely a remnant of Sculpture owner's Years, purely used to frighten people.
He pushed the Sculpture aside, revealing a dark crack behind Sculpture.
The crack emanated a vast and ethereal Aura, along with waves of gloomy and Destruction that sent shivers down one's spine.
"Go!"
The Source Ancestor threw the Dragon Saint's body inside, followed closely by the God King. The God King also quickly rushed inside.
Li Hao hesitated for a moment, but still stepped inside.
As soon as Li Hao entered the rift, he saw that it was actually a vast Starry Sky!
Before this Starry Sky, an ancient and majestic gate stands.
The door was engraved with complex and eerie patterns. Just one glance at it made Li Hao feel dizzy, as if his brain was about to explode, and he wanted to vomit.
"That's... a door?"
Both the Source Ancestor and the God King's eyes changed, then revealed a strong light. They could feel an even thicker and more vast Aura continuously emanating from that doorway.
That power wasn't the Heaven and Earth Energy and Lands of the Saints, but rather an Aura felt only when touching the Dao of Heavenly Dao —the legendary Immortal Qi!
Li Hao also sensed the Immortal Qi emanating from the door.
What is Immortal Qi? It is the common Origin of All Things in the Heaven and Earth.
Li Hao had previously captured a trace of Immortal Qi, which allowed him to Immortal Transformation. Now, that faint Immortal Qi was emanating directly from behind the door.
Like delicious food, it exudes an enticing aroma.
Li Hao was shocked. If he could pass through this door and touch the true Immortal Qi behind it, he could immediately cultivate to the Sixth Extreme Realm simply by absorbing and Mastery it!
At this moment, the obstruction of the door only emitted a faint fluctuation. "The Path to Immortality, it really is real..."
A light shone in the eyes of the Source Ancestor, and then suddenly his Saint Domain erupted, Past the God King. The God King, however, seemed to have anticipated this, his Divine Flame burning within the Saint Domain, and he unleashed a furious sword strike, cleaving towards the Source Ancestor's Saint Domain.
A crack appeared in the Source Ancestor Saint Domain, and a long whip resembling a whisk appeared in his palm.
That was his Seven Tribulations Emperor Weapon.
The long whip emanated a dense Tribulation Power, and Tribulation Clouds immediately appeared around it, with lightning flashing in the Void.
"Hmph, without the help of the saints this time, do you really think you can kill me?" The God King glanced coldly at the divine whip, then sneered at the Source Ancestor, "You haven't tasted the power of the Suppression Heaven Whip in a long time, have you?"
The Source Ancestor spoke calmly.
The God King's eyes turned cold. He had been whipped by this very whip Divine Bone shattered, his skin torn and flesh ripped open, and he was eventually suppressed in a miserable state.
"You can't kill me, and I can't kill you. If you're so capable, let's wait until we enter the Immortal Deity World, and then cultivate for another ten thousand years. Let's see who emerges victorious in the end!"
The God- Wang Han face, yet with utmost rationality.
Although he came for revenge, he knew that killing the Source Ancestor would be very difficult!
The God Race army could not enter the Ancient Hall, he could not sacrifice his entire clan, and some methods could not be used, so he could only endure for the time being.
Source Ancestor sneered, but just as he was about to say something, his eyes suddenly turned cold as he looked abruptly at the door.
As they fought, Dragon Saint rushed to the door, slamming his hand against it, trying to enter.
I asked you to scout ahead, not to go first!
The Source Ancestor suddenly made his move, and the Origin Saint Domain pressed Past the Dragon Saint.
The Dragon Saint revealed its true form, its body spanning dozens of miles across the Starry Sky, roaring as blood-red lightning crackled from its claws, attempting to tear apart the Source Ancestor's Saint Domain.
Seeing this, the God King also raised his hand and slashed out with his sword, actually severing the Dragon Saint's Sharp Claws. The two, who were about to fight, attacked each other simultaneously, and the Dragon Saint was immediately suppressed. Li Hao watched silently from the side, but he knew that both the Source Ancestor and the God King were paying attention to him, and he did not act rashly to avoid provoking their killing intent.
After suppressing the Dragon Saint, the Source Ancestor and the God King rushed towards the door almost simultaneously.
Soon, they arrived at this strange and ancient door. The door was extremely large, dozens of feet high, standing in the Starry Sky. It was impossible to pass through the back of the door, as if there was an invisible barrier blocking the way.
Li Hao had already noticed that although this was a Starry Sky, there was Barrier around it, and the countless Xingchen in the distance could only be viewed from afar and could not be touched.
But for some reason, the Xingchen seemed to Li Hao to be more profound and dazzling than what he saw from the outside.
"Be careful, there seems to be danger behind this door," Li Hao said, feigning concern.
Even without him saying it, a look of solemnity appeared on the faces of the Source Ancestor and the God King.
The Aura emanating from the Sculpture earlier was also coming from inside the door. Besides the vast celestial Immortal Qi, there was also a chilling and depressing murderous Killing Aura that gave people a sense of unease.
The Source Ancestor remained silent; the Path to Immortality was near. Should he retreat?
He couldn't let the God King leave first. If the other party went in first, destroyed the Military Family, and cultivated alone in the Immortal Realm to become Immortal Deity, he would inevitably come back to take revenge on him.
The God King stared at the door, slowly raised his hand, and placed it on the door. Upon seeing this, the Source Ancestor simply stared intently at the God King's palm, without making any move.
At this moment, the intricate patterns on the door suddenly seemed to come alive, bursting forth with a silvery-white light.
With a loud bang.
The light was like a star exploding, so fast that it was impossible to defend against. Both the Source Ancestor and the God King were thrown backward by the shock.
Both of their Saint Domain were eroded and destroyed by that power.
Blood trickled from the corner of Source Ancestor's mouth, and his Saint Domain crumbled instantly like ice and snow; he was severely injured.
Although the Saint Domain can be reconstituted, the Sacred Dao within Saint Domain has been severed by that power and cannot be restored in a short time.
The God King's expression was equally grim. Like the Source Ancestor, he had been severely injured, his Sacred Dao severed, and his strength greatly diminished.
When their Saint Domain was destroyed, the Dragon Saint was also freed from his confinement. Upon seeing the two of them, he burst into laughter and said:
"I was planning to scout ahead for you, but you were ungrateful and insisted on going your own way. Now look what's happened!"
While mocking Li Hao, it rapidly spun around and charged towards the Source Ancestor. Compared to Li Hao, it was now even more furious with the Source Ancestor.
Source Ancestor's expression turned slightly cold. He suddenly raised his hand and lashed out the Suppression Heaven Whip in his palm.
A series of violent, starburst-like vibrations arose in the Void, and dense Tribulation Power suddenly enveloped the Dragon Saint. Those starburst vibrations appeared on its Dragon Body, nine times in an instant, and the Dragon Saint's body exploded nine times, breaking into pieces of flesh.
Not only was his body shattered by the Suppression Heaven Whip, but his Saint Domain was also destroyed, and even his Sacred Dao was affected.
The Dragon Saint's mangled body fled into the distance, glaring at the Source Ancestor in shock and fury. "You haven't felt pain since this whip has never struck you."
Source Ancestor gave him a cold look, then looked at the God King. Seeing that the other party was not much better off than himself, he breathed a slight sigh of relief, then focused his gaze on the door.
The twisted patterns on the door have now returned to their original state.
Source Ancestor's eyes flashed. As the oldest Sage, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was the most learned.
That seemed to be the work of immortals, forbidding others from touching it. An immortal used their power to seal this Dao Gate, closing the path to the Immortal Deity and immortals here.
Beside him, the God King stabilized his injuries and flew to the door again, but this time he did not act rashly. Instead, he carefully examined the door.
Source Ancestor also approached and observed for a moment. Suddenly, he noticed a gap in the pattern. It was that gap that allowed the Immortal Deity Aura from within the door to emanate, enabling them to detect the anomaly behind the statue.
"It seems that even the power of Immortal Deity is failing."
A thoughtful look appeared in Source Ancestor's eyes. He exchanged a glance with the God King. They were rivals, but also people who had once known each other the most.
They understood each other's thoughts without needing to say a word.
The God King nodded slightly, and then the two joined forces at the same time. The God King swung his sword, while the Source Ancestor wielded the Suppression Heaven Whip. The energy in the Starry Sky churned like a raging sea, condensing towards their weapons and focusing on a single point. Then, they simultaneously struck the gap in the pattern.
With a loud bang, the starburst light reappeared. This time, the two were on guard and retreated rapidly as they attacked. However, the light was too fast, and they were still hit.
Their bodies fell out, and they discovered that the Sacred Dao had been severed once again.
On the other hand, the door was completely undamaged; the gaps in the patterns remained unchanged and had not widened.
Even with their combined strength, they couldn't break down the door.
Shock flashed in their eyes, but it quickly turned into a more resolute look. This was the Immortal-and-Divine Power. As Supreme Saint, they had already glimpsed the Heavenly Dao, but this Immortal-and-Divine Power was even more mysterious and terrifying. It was hard to imagine what kind of great power those Immortal Deity possessed.
Li Hao stood at a distance, watching silently, but he noticed something amiss.
There was a slight gap at the opening, and it was actually possible to pass Past the Dao Gate.
However, neither the Source Ancestor nor the God King seemed to notice, or rather, they were unable to see, the gap.
Because that gap can only allow a tiny amount of Immortal Qi to pass through.
"Haha, you can't get in, nobody can get in. What good is finding a way if it's blocked off? Someone once said this place is Abandoned Realm, and it really is..."
Upon seeing this scene, the Dragon Saint burst into maniacal laughter, his body surrounded by a blood-red aura that emanated from his scales. His expression shifted between ferocious and mocking as he looked at the Source Ancestor and the God King.
Source Ancestor didn't speak, but just stared at the door.
After a long while, he slowly turned his head and looked at Li Hao.
Li Hao initially thought it was just a casual glance, but when his eyes met Source Ancestor's, a sudden sense of unease rose within him.
That look in his eyes seemed to suggest he had seen something.
The God King stared at the door, silent, seemingly lost in thought. "Haotian, do you have a way to get in?"
Suddenly, the voice of the Source Ancestor echoed in Li Hao's mind.
Li Hao's heart skipped a beat, and he replied in a helpless tone, "If even you and the God King can't do anything, then I certainly can't."
"That's not necessarily true. I've heard that the Immortal Deity left because something significant happened. Perhaps they deliberately sealed off this realm, but the outer barrier requires your power to open. Or perhaps Immortal Deity left behind a passage, and this passage can only be traversed with the help of your sixth- Extreme Realm Power."
"This Source Ancestor."
Li Hao also sensed the depth of Source Ancestor's thoughts, realizing that he had actually considered this point.
Indeed, he felt that if he entered the Immortal Transformation State, he could squeeze through the gap in that door.
However, if he were to reveal this, he would not be praised, but rather face dire consequences.
These two would never allow anyone else to enter the Path to Immortality before them, for they fear that whoever enters first will destroy, reinforce, or block the path.
"Human hearts are unpredictable. Who can easily entrust this path to the highest realm to another?" You're right, but I really can't.
Li Hao smiled wryly and transmitted his voice.
Source Ancestor his voice in a low voice, "Give it a try. If you can get in, I'll help you stop the God King. I trust your character. If you can truly open this path, Heavenly Realms will be grateful to you."
Li Hao sneered inwardly. He was naturally unmoved by these words, but he knew that if he didn't do something, the Source Ancestor would definitely not let him off the hook.
"Then I'll give it a try," Li Hao said telepathically.
He then walked toward the door.
The God King sensed Li Hao approaching, turned to look at him, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes. The Source Ancestor said, "Let him try. He possesses the power of the Sixth Extreme Realm, a power that seems to originate from the same source as the Aura within this door, extremely similar. Perhaps he has a way."
The God King's eyes flickered, but he didn't speak, nor did he release any more killing intent towards Li Hao. Seeing this, Li Hao approached the door. In front of the two of them, he entered the Immortal Transformation State and then raised his hand to touch the door.
Under the Ultimate Transformation to Immortality, his body merged with heaven and Heaven and Earth, and he could faintly flow into the gap in the door.
Li Hao Dark Dao to himself, "Just as I observed, he can indeed get in, but only very slowly."
If he were to actually squeeze in, the Source Ancestor and the God King would inevitably see through the process and then stop him.
Li Hao immediately let his power linger at the opening, but didn't go any deeper. After this feigned gesture, he withdrew his hand.
"There's nothing I can do." Li Hao shook his head with a wry smile.
The Source Ancestor stared intently at him, "The fact that the restrictions on these objects didn't attack you means that your power is indeed of the same origin."
The God King stared intently at Li Hao, a chilling killing intent flashing in his eyes. Li Hao's expression changed slightly, and he nodded, saying, "Perhaps that's the reason."
"Hand over the cultivation method for the Sixth Extreme Realm, and I'll spare your life out of consideration for your acquaintance with the God Daughter of my clan!"
The God King said coldly.
The Source Ancestor's expression was relatively gentle as he said, "Haotian, only you have cultivated this Sixth Extreme Realm. Have you gained any insights? Spread the Sacred Dao widely, and your Merit and Fame will spread Heavenly Realms, and you will receive endless Incense."
Li Hao's heart sank. He hadn't expected to be caught off guard; these two had set their sights on the Sixth Extreme Realm.
Previously, she only used him as a key, but now she wants to cultivate it herself.
"This method cannot be mastered simply by being taught; it requires self-realization. Even if I were to explain it, would you two truly believe me?"
Li Hao said.
The God King said coldly, "You're not even 30 years old, yet you've cultivated to this level. This Sixth Extreme Realm hasn't taken up too much of your cultivation time, has it? Even if we are less talented than you, even ten times less intelligent, ten years! If you can achieve it within ten years, then you've revealed the truth. If you still can't achieve it within ten years, then don't blame us!"
Source Ancestor didn't speak, but simply watched Li Hao quietly.
At this moment, there's little need to conceal the false pretense.
They all wanted to reach the Sixth Extreme Realm, or at least touch the threshold without being attacked, which would allow them to properly study how to open that Dao Gate.
"This Sixth Extreme Realm is the more you try to cultivate it, the less likely you are to succeed. If you can't comprehend it, even a hundred or a thousand years will be useless."
Li Hao said.
"So, you're unwilling to say?" The God King narrowed his eyes slightly.
Li Hao remained silent. Ten years meant that he not only had to share all his insights, but also had to stay under the other party's watchful eye for ten years.
If they fail to cultivate, they'll be the first to settle scores with him. If they do manage to cultivate, they probably won't let him live either. He's in a dilemma.
Li Hao said in a low voice.
The Source Ancestor said gently, "Haotian, you are a wise man. This matter concerns Heavenly Realms, so you don't need to worry too much. We only want to enter the Path to Immortality and not let others go before us. We just don't want others to destroy this path. If I enter the Path to Immortality, I will definitely open this path so that Heavenly Realms will have the opportunity to embark on the Immortal Road and cultivate to become Immortal Deity together."
Li Hao nodded slightly and said, "You're not letting others go in first because you're unwilling to Mastery your Destiny to others. If that's the case, how can I trust you and let you Mastery my Destiny?"
"Haotian, do not make an enemy of the Heavenly Realms," the Source Ancestor whispered. "Even if you don't tell us, we will figure it out sooner or later." "Then understand it yourselves."
Li Hao said, "I can guarantee that I will never set foot here again before you have completed your cultivation. I have no intention of exploring the Immortal Road. After all, I am still young, Heavenly Realms world is vast and boundless. I haven't even gotten tired of the Mortal World yet..."
You're asking for it!
The God King abruptly interrupted Li Hao, his eyes flashing with murderous intent, "I'll ask you one last time, are you going to tell me or not?"
