Building a sacred land, taking refuge across the Heavenly Realms (8K)

"This..."

Seeing Li Hao swiftly and decisively kill the Ancient Demon, the Sacred Capital were still somewhat stunned.

Only when Li Hao was about to leave did they suddenly realize that the terrifying Ancient Demon had actually not even lasted a single round against Li Hao.

Is this why Li Hao stayed on the Ancient Road for twelve years?

At this moment, they finally realized that Li Hao's previous words had not deceived them, but now the mess was exposed, and it was too late.

"Lord Haotian!"

Source Ancestor hurriedly stepped forward, rushed to Li Hao's side, looked directly into Li Hao's eyes, and said:

"With your immense strength, if you cooperate with us to slay the Ancient Demon, we might be able to hold out."

The God King simply stood there, coldly watching Li Hao.

He had already decided that if the Immortal Gate were truly destroyed, he would do what Li Hao did: find a secluded place to hide. As for the common people, what did that have to do with him?

During the countless Years he was sealed away, the common people regarded him as a demon and worshipped the saints who had humiliated him, turning good and evil upside down. In his heart, he felt only hatred for the common people.

Li Hao frowned and said to the Source Ancestor, "You overestimate me. Although I can kill Ancient Demon, these are only the weakest Ancient Demon. The powerful Ancient Demon within are comparable to True Immortal. What merit do I have to kill True Immortal across borders?"

Source Ancestor was speechless after hearing Li Hao's words, and said, "Is this the only way now?"

Li Hao ignored him and strode away.

"Lord Haotian, didn't you say you would do this for all living beings? How can you just abandon them like that?" a Sage hurriedly said, trying to persuade Li Hao to stay.

"Such a momentous matter, if you had resolutely stopped us earlier and stayed here to guard the area, we wouldn't have made a mistake."

There was also Sage who said he wanted to shift the blame onto Li Hao.

Upon hearing this, Li Hao couldn't help but sneer and walked even faster.

The Medicine Saint glanced at the Sage and shook his head slightly. At this point, right and wrong were no longer important. The mess had already been made; the focus should be on how to avoid disaster. But even if they all hid, the masses had nowhere to hide.

Moreover, if all living beings are slaughtered, their Incense will be cut off, and their cultivation will eventually decline, making them vulnerable to the Ancient Demon.

Without saying much, the Medicine Saint quickly followed Li Hao, her heart set on her disciples from the Sacred Land.

Upon arriving Ancient Hall, the Medicine Saint caught up with Li Hao. Now, only the two of them remained in the Void. The Medicine Saint looked at Li Hao's cold face and furrowed brows, and whispered:

"Are you really out of options?"

Li Hao didn't look back and continued forward, saying, "My method can only protect a small number of people. Even if I guard the Immortal Gate and kill the Ancient Demon that keep invading, it's not a long-term solution. Besides, I can't find out what's going on outside the gate. If I kill too many Third Order Ancient Demons in a row, and the gate is suddenly smashed down by the Ancient Demon Commander, I'll be the first one to die."

Upon hearing this, the Medicine Saint fell silent.

The disaster was caused by the saints, so Past reasonable to force Li Hao to stay here and slay the Ancient Demon.

"Will we hide until this world falls?"

The Medicine Saint asked a question.

She also thought of a way to avoid disaster: to hide when Heavenly Realms fall, and when the Ancient Demon devour everything, they will naturally retreat.

Li Hao remained silent.

Unless, of course, that door holds up for a little longer than he thought.

If he improves his skills and his cultivation level can reach that of True Immortal, allowing him to fully Mastery the Immortal Power within his body, he might be able to carve out a bloody path for Myriad Races of All Heavens.

Or perhaps, the Red Tassel Spear Woman's reinforcements arrived in time.

But these are all unknown factors, and before that, he must first find a way to survive.

"I plan to create a Sacred Land, like the Mí Xū Heaven and the Qianluo Sacred Land, to serve as a refuge."

Li Hao shared his thoughts with the Medicine Saint: "If you wish to seek refuge together, you can bring your disciples, but try to keep the number to a minimum. You know, the more disciples you have, the easier it is to be exposed."

He must be prepared for the destruction of the Immortal Gate at any time; no one knows whether tomorrow or an accident will come first.

The Medicine Saint understood Li Hao's thoughts and nodded, saying, "I will seize the opportunity."

Now she knows that only by sticking together with Li Hao can she possibly survive.

Judging from the speed at which Li Hao killed that Ancient Demon, his strength is probably much greater than that of the Source Ancestor and the God King.

Subsequently, the two parted ways in the Void, with the Medicine Saint needing to return to his Sacred Land to urgently summon his disciples and prepare for refuge.

Li Hao, on the other hand, returned to the Cloud Radiance Realm.

On the way back, he used the Flower Wandering Token send Communication to Zhan Tan, asking her to bring Ji Xuanshen and the others together.

Soon, when Li Hao returned to the Cloud Radiance Realm, Ji Xuanshen, Zhan Tan, and the others were waiting for Li Hao on the top of a famous Famous Mountain in a Divine Dynasty.

"Haotian, what happened?"

Upon seeing Li Hao, Ji Xuanshen quickly asked.

Li Hao had just left in a hurry, and his anxious manner made them realize that something serious had happened.

Li Hao sighed and told them about the Immortal Road. Upon hearing Li Hao's words, Ji Xuanshen and the others were stunned, and then shock and Anger appeared on their faces.

"So, the saints have acted unilaterally, and now Heavenly Realms are going to suffer?"

"This is absolutely insane! You've made this perfectly clear. Even if they don't believe you, they shouldn't take the risk, even if there's only a one in ten chance!"

"How can we gamble the lives of all the Heavenly Realms on an unknown?"

Everyone was furious.

Li Hao's expression softened considerably upon hearing their words; thankfully, his friends were all normal people.

"Now that the breach has been exposed, the Ancient Demon could invade at any moment. I don't know if this Immortal Gate can withstand it. In short, I'm going to create a Sacred Land as a refuge. You can all hide here then. You can bring your friends and family as well. As for the others... we'll see if there's room then."

Li Hao addressed the crowd.

Upon hearing Li Hao's words, the crowd did not show joy; instead, their expressions turned somber.

Compared to the Heavenly Realms, the number that a single Sacred Land can accommodate is truly limited.

But now they know that Li Hao has done his best.

After giving his instructions, Li Hao dismissed them, as he needed some time to create the Sacred Land.

Once the Sacred Land site is completed, Li Hao will go to the Mortal World to bring over his friends from Mortal World.

Otherwise, if the Ancient Demon were to invade, Mortal World might also suffer.

Thinking of the Mortal World Divine Dynasty, Li Hao frowned. The land of the Great Yu Dynasty was vast, and a single Sacred Land could not contain all its people.

He planned to bring Yu Emperor and other acquaintances and friends to the Sacred Land, while he himself would stay and oversee the Divine Dynasty. He didn't know how long he could hold out.

Now that he has returned to the All Heavens Sacred Land, Li Hao has discovered that time on the Ancient Road of the True Realm flows at the same rate as time in the Lands of the Saints, while time in the Mortal World realm flows at ten times the rate in the Lands of the Saints. According to current calculations, more than 150 years have passed in the Mortal World.

I wonder how Second Master and the others are doing after all these long Years.

Li Hao shook his head, withdrawing these thoughts. He arrived at a Void and activated the All Heavens Star Meridian, mobilizing a vast and terrifying power to create a Sacred Land out of Void.

As the Principle within the Dao Domain flowed, rocks and soil were born out of Void.

When Li Hao created the Sacred Land.

Ancient Hall.

Before the Starry Sky Immortal Gate, the saints joined forces to slay an Ancient Demon.

Not long after Li Hao left, two Ancient Demon squeezed through the gap and Descent upon the place.

Only after engaging this Ancient Demon did they realize the gap between themselves and Li Hao. This Ancient Demon could resist even the saints, and its combat power was even more troublesome than that of the Supreme Saint.

Both the Source Ancestor and the God King sensed the Ancient Demon's unique nature and the threat it posed, their expressions turning grave.

After killing one of the invading Ancient Demon, the saints stared at the Immortal Gate, their hearts filled with unease as they recalled Li Hao's words.

If the Immortal Gate were to shatter in the next moment, the being capable of crushing it would undoubtedly possess the ability to instantly annihilate them.

The feeling that death could Descent at any moment, without knowing when, has made many Sage consider giving up.

Are we going to stay here and hold out forever?

"What if that Ancient Demon has already gone to call for reinforcements? The Ancient Demon Commander that Lord Haotian mentioned is an existence even more terrifying than True Immortal. What if..."

The saints looked grim, and even the Sage who had spoken seemed to have a very unpleasant expression.

These words sound extremely irresponsible, since they were the ones who caused the trouble.

But faced with this life-or-death situation, even though they knew that such an act of desertion was extremely shameful, their lives were of greater importance.

"The Lord Haotian said he wanted to find a place to hide. Now that things have come to this, although we caused this trouble, he also bears responsibility. He knew it was so dangerous. If he had stayed here, we wouldn't have caused such a disaster. In my opinion, we should leave too."

"That's right, we must always preserve some embers."

As soon as someone started speaking, the others followed suit.

Source Ancestor remained silent. He knew that the saints' minds were no longer on this place, and that continuing to guard it would be pointless.

"If you are seeking refuge, would any of you be willing to join my Tianyuan Sacred Land?"

"Source Ancestor asked."

He knew that at this moment, he needed to concentrate his forces to avoid disaster; the more he scattered, the more likely he would be defeated one by one by these invading Ancient Demon.

Upon hearing that the Source Ancestor had extended an olive branch, many Sages were overjoyed and quickly expressed their goodwill.

They also realized how terrifying this Ancient Demon was; if they encountered it, they would be utterly powerless to resist it.

The Law Saint and the Name Saint of Supreme Saint exchanged glances and began to rally the other sages, for only by uniting could they resist.

As Supreme Saint, they did not wish to submit to the Source Ancestor's command.

Soon, the discussion ended, and then another Ancient Demon invaded.

Source Ancestor led the saints to kill him, and then took advantage of the gap to leave the Ancient Hall.

As all the saints departed, in the silent Starry Sky, the ancient gate stood tall, its doors shrouded in black mist. Before long, another Ancient Demon Descent.

This Ancient Demon burst out of the Starry Sky, followed the crack to the Ancient Hall, searched everywhere, and finally broke out of the Ancient Hall.

It soared through the Void, sensing the fragrance emanating from countless souls drifting in from all directions.

Excitement and greed suddenly appeared in its scarlet eyes.

It quickly flew towards the nearest place with a strong fragrance.

In the Void, Li Hao is building Sacred Land.

The Sacred Land site he built was slightly larger than ordinary Sacred Land, capable of accommodating half a Divine Dynasty and billions of people.

However, this would be quite crowded, but considering it's for disaster relief, crowding is a minor issue.

This area is already the limit that Li Hao's Primordial Spirit can strengthen to enhance coverage and isolation.

If the area were larger, although his Primordial Spirit could cover it, he couldn't guarantee that it wouldn't be detected by second- or third-tier Ancient Demon.

If the Sacred Land is built, Li Hao feels that as long as the Ancient Demon Commander doesn't personally come to this realm, protecting the Sacred Land shouldn't be too difficult for him.

Even if the Sacred Land were filled with billions of people, compared to the fall of Heavenly Realms, only one in a thousand would survive.

After all, each Small World contains dozens of the Divine Dynasty.

As Li Hao worked through the night to expedite the construction, suddenly, his Flower Wandering Token slightly warm.

Li Hao knew that someone was calling him.

He sparse a wisp of his consciousness into the Flower Wandering Token and immediately saw that it was Azure Ancestor calling him.

"Lord Haotian, something terrible has happened! The Qinghuo Small World has fallen!"

"I've heard that Demon have appeared there, and they're unstoppable. I have a friend in the Fire Cloud Sacred Land there. That Sacred Land has already fallen, and even the Crimson Cloud Saint there was eaten alive by those Demons!"

Seeing Li Hao's shadow light up, Azure Ancestor hurriedly said.

Li Hao was stunned when he heard his long string of messages.

Eat the Sage?

It should be understood that when Sage stays in Sacred Land, he can mobilize the power of the Saint Meridian, resulting in a surge in strength. Coupled with numerous resources and formations, his strength will rise to a higher level.

Only a Supreme Saint could possibly kill Sage in someone else's Sacred Land.

Demon? Could they be Ancient Demon?!

Li Hao's expression changed, and he quickly said, "You all pack up quickly and come to my side as soon as possible."

As he spoke, he sent them his Void coordinates.

Subsequently, Li Hao withdrew from the Flower Wandering Society and hurriedly contacted her through the Medicine Saint's Sage Hand Token.

"I heard that some Ancient Demon have already broken in. What about Source Ancestor and the others?" Li Hao asked hurriedly.

The Medicine Saint, with her wider network, had received the news well in advance and was planning to inform Li Hao. She hurriedly said, "I just received news that the Source Ancestor and the other Sage have already left the Ancient Hall and are now returning to their own Sacred Land. It seems they also want to follow our example, mobilizing the power of their Sacred Land to gather together for refuge."

Upon hearing this, Li Hao was utterly astonished and so angry he wanted to curse.

"They want to seek refuge too? They're the ones who dug that mess, aren't they going to try and fix it? Seek refuge? Do they think they can escape? That Ancient Demon will definitely come after them. By doing this, they'll only die faster!"

Li Hao felt annoyed.

That Ancient Demon's Primordial Spirit was extremely powerful, possessing the innate ability to capture souls. Even if the saints had arrays to conceal the Sacred Land, they could still detect it.

Otherwise, how could the True Realm have fallen back then?

Are the Immortal Method Immortal Array wielded by those Immortal Deity and immortals inferior to theirs?

Upon hearing Li Hao's words, the Medicine Saint was stunned and couldn't help but ask, "What makes you say that? Could it be that ordinary formations are useless against these Ancient Demons?"

"Of course it's useless. This is something that even the immortals Immortal Deity of the True Realm are helpless against. How can they possibly hide from it?"

Li Hao was annoyed. He chose to take refuge because his Primordial Spirit was strong enough to conceal the Ancient Demon's detection.

Of course, if he encounters First Order Ancient Demon, his Primordial Spirit can only conceal himself and a very small area of Aura.

If he were the Ancient Demon Commander, he would also be exposed; there would be no way for him to hide unless he were dead.

Only the dead will not be detected by the Ancient Demon.

The Medicine Saint was stunned, and many thoughts suddenly came to mind. Her face turned pale. She had previously thought of relying on the formation to allow more people to take refuge in her Sacred Land, but now it seemed that she had been indulging in wishful thinking.

At this moment, she completely believed Li Hao's words.

"Then, then we..."

"I am building Sacred Land, but it is not large, only able to accommodate billions of people. Within this area, I am confident that I can evade the detection of the Ancient Demon."

Li Hao quickly said, "Since they're not guarding anymore, you should get ready too."

The Medicine Saint understood, and suddenly said, "Should we inform them of this news? Although they made a mistake, the bigger picture should come first..."

"Suit yourself, but do you think they'll believe it?"

Li Hao said.

Although he was furious with the saints, he knew that things had come to this point and killing them would be futile; he could only try to find a solution.

The Medicine Saint was speechless. After ending the Communication with Li Hao, she thought for a moment, then picked up the Source Ancestor's Hand Token and informed him of the news. She also notified some other Sage who had previously interacted or had a relationship with her.

Soon, the news spread like wildfire, reaching every Sacred Land.

The saints, who were preparing to build an array to hide, were all dumbfounded.

The formation is ineffective?

How was Li Hao able to hide?

Although I don't believe it, the news of the fall of Crimson Cloud Saint has already spread, and the entire Qinghuo Small World has also fallen and fallen. Everywhere there are silent cities filled with countless corpses. The bodies of those corpses are not injured, but their souls have been absorbed and annihilated.

Having been famous for many years, the Saints had access to far more information than Li Hao, and faced with this fact, they had no choice but to believe it.

In the Tianyuan Small World, more than a dozen Sage gathered here, seeking refuge under the tutelage of the Source Ancestor.

"The message from the Medicine Saint says that the Lord Haotian said the formation is ineffective and we can't escape. Is that true?"

"It is said that the Crimson Cloud Saint was eaten in public, and many people witnessed it. Now, many Half-Saint have fled from there."

"If the formation is useless, then how did Lord Haotian escape? Could it be that he has a special method?"

Should we go and beg him?

Would it do any good to ask him?

Inside the main hall, the saints engaged in a heated debate.

"If it's truly useless, then shouldn't we go and block that Immortal Gate? Otherwise, more Ancient Demon will arrive, waging guerrilla warfare everywhere, which will only cause the Heavenly Realms to fall even faster. Blocking them there and killing them one by one can at least buy us some time."

A Sage suggested this.

Source Ancestor frowned deeply; he hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

At this moment, he was already somewhat regretful that he had previously scattered the saints.

But he himself was also worried that if the door suddenly broke, he wouldn't even have a chance to escape.

If True Immortal- level Ancient Demon Descent, no one could escape.

"Let's wait and see. Let's lure that Ancient Demon from the Qinghuo World here and see if it can detect our Sacred Land."

After Source Ancestor spoke seriously.

Upon hearing his words, the saints' expressions changed slightly, and some of them hesitated, clearly feeling that this was too risky.

But the other Sage nodded in agreement; at this point, this was the only option.

"Let's test this out. If we fail, we can still kill it together. If we don't even have the courage to face one Ancient Demon now, what will we do if we encounter more Ancient Demon later?" a Sage agreed.

They acted immediately and set off quickly.

The Source Ancestor instructed his disciple Xiao Tianyu to continue reinforcing the Sacred Land's formation, while he himself used an avatar to accompany him and attract the Ancient Demon.

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye.

They arrived at the Qinghuo Small World and saw from the Void that the entire Small World was not like usual, with thousands of lights shining.

Now, however, flames are everywhere; they are the result of collapsed lamps that have not been extinguished, setting the Dwelling ablaze.

Upon entering the Small World, they discovered that it was filled with Aura corpses. These corpses were not injured or bleeding, but lay limp on the ground.

This is true for every city.

Their faces were grim. Based on the Intelligence, they quickly located the Ancient Demon Habitat.

After eating and drinking his fill, the other person lay down and slept on an Imperial Palace building of a Divine Dynasty.

Inside the surrounding Imperial Palace, not a single person was alive; they all lay limp on the ground.

The saints immediately joined forces to lure it away, and then, restrained by the avatar of the Source Ancestor, they worked together to escape this realm.

Enraged by them, the Ancient Demon relentlessly pursued them until it arrived in the Tianyuan Small World.

"They've arrived."

Within the Tianyuan Small World, many disciples of the Tianyuan Sacred Land watched this scene with trepidation, as if facing a formidable enemy.

They were disciples of the foremost Sacred Land in the Heavenly Realms, and they were deeply proud of it. At this moment, they lined up in battle formation, ready to fight to the death at any time.

As the many Sage shook off the Ancient Demon and returned to their Sacred Land, they kept a close watch on the Ancient Demon's movements.

The Ancient Demon chased the demon to the area outside the Sacred Land, where it gradually slowed down.

He seems to have lost his Aura.

"Look, he's turned!"

"It seems the formation is effective; that Lord Haotian was talking nonsense!"

"It seems even the Medicine Saint has been deceived by him, or perhaps he's conspiring with him to get us to plug the hole so they can buy time to escape."

"That's too insidious."

The saints and the Source Ancestor all smiled as they watched the Ancient Demon turn and leave.

However, the Ancient Demon did not leave the Tianyuan Small World. Instead, it rushed into the Divine Dynasty of the Heavenly Origin World and devoured souls there.

As cities crumbled and Divine Dynasty fell, those Divine Dynasty sent plea for help to the Sacred Land.

"Did you attract it?"

The Legalist Sacred Land was also in the Tianyuan Small World. Seeing the Ancient Demon running rampant, the Law Saint's face turned grim, and he went to the Source Ancestor to question him.

Source Ancestor said, "You've received the news about the Medicine Saint, haven't you? We must verify it."

"That's right."

The other Sage immediately echoed this sentiment.

The Law Saint exclaimed in shock and anger, "But now it's slaughtering! You've attracted it!"

"The Sacred Land is under lockdown, Ancient Demon are rampaging; they will die sooner or later."

A hint of regret appeared in Source Ancestor's eyes as he said, "There's nothing we can do about it. The mistake has been made; it's our sin."

The Law Saint clenched his fist, glared at him Anger, and finally turned and left.

As the Ancient Demon wreaked havoc, and after slaughtering three Divine Dynasty in succession, the remaining Divine Dynasty learned of the news and migrated and gathered at the Tianyuan Sacred Land.

However, the Tianyuan Sacred Land was shrouded and isolated by an array, as if it had vanished into thin air. In addition, the array also included a kind of fog circuit, like being trapped in a maze. The nobles from these Divine Dynasty migrated here and followed the road, but they could never find any trace of the Sacred Land.

They felt despair, believing only that the Sacred Land had been moved away.

"Thank goodness for the Mirror Mist Formation, otherwise these idiots getting close would have exposed our location."

A Half-Saint who saw what was happening outside the formation secretly rejoiced.

"Huh? Why did that Ancient Demon come over?"

At this moment, someone noticed that the Ancient Demon that had previously ravaged the Divine Dynasty were now turning towards the Sacred Land and flying towards it.

When they thought they were heading towards the powerful and influential figures of the Divine Dynasty within the Mirror Mist Formation, they discovered that they were heading straight for the Sacred Land.

Bang!

The Ancient Demon roared and crashed directly into the formation, causing the formation to ripple with patterns.

The saints were shocked; could this Ancient Demon really see the Sacred Land?

"Could it be that he turned away earlier simply to fill his stomach first?" a Sage murmured, a hint of fear in his voice.

Source Ancestor's face was grim. If this were the case, the sacrifices of those three Divine Dynasty would have been in vain, and they would have died tragically right before their eyes.

Kill him!

The Source Ancestor personally took the lead and rallied other Sage to join the attack.

After a fierce battle, the Ancient Demon was finally whipped to death by the Source Ancestor's Suppression Heaven Whip- Suppressing Whip.

However, the Source Ancestor's own Primordial Spirit was also injured, and it would be difficult to repair in the short term. His face was grim. He hadn't expected that even with the cooperation of other Sage, it would be so difficult to kill an Ancient Demon.

This was even with Seven Tribulations Emperor Weapon Emperor Weapon his possession; without it, he would likely have paid an even higher price.

"It actually managed to see through the formation! How did it do it?"

"This beast's Primordial Spirit is incredibly powerful, and it can even devour souls. I wonder how many have already crawled in."

The Sage looked at the Ancient Demon's corpse with rather grim expressions.

They had just mocked Li Hao for spreading alarmist rumors and trying to take advantage of them, but they were proven wrong again in the blink of an eye.

Silence fell upon the Saint Mountain.

The formation has failed, meaning that seeking refuge is now a pipe dream.

After a long silence, a Sage suddenly said, "The Lord Haotian has a way to seek refuge. Let's go and beg him. In any case, this is the only way left."

Source Ancestor came to his senses, paused for a moment, then nodded. He glanced at the Sage beside him and immediately took out Hand Token to send a message to the Medicine Saint.

The Medicine Saint received news that Source Ancestor wanted to seek refuge with Li Hao, and also wanted to know Li Hao's location, so he wanted to go and meet Li Hao.

She didn't agree directly but relayed the message to Li Hao.

Upon learning this, Li Hao was too lazy to see them, but he knew that unless he said something, these people would definitely pester him relentlessly in their desperate situation. He said to the Medicine Saint:

"The way to avoid the Ancient Demon's detection is simple: your Primordial Spirit must be stronger than the Ancient Demon's."

The Medicine Saint was stunned when he heard this, not expecting that this was Li Hao's way of seeking refuge.

But the Primordial Spirit is already the Extreme Realm, and that Ancient Demon is also Primordial Spirit. To surpass the power of the Primordial Spirit, could it be... that Li Hao has already cultivated to the Primal Spirit Final Realm?

The Medicine Saint felt a chill run down his spine and relayed the news to the Source Ancestor.

Source Ancestor was somewhat stunned upon hearing the news.

"Really? The Primordial Spirit is already at its Extreme Realm, and it can get even stronger?"

"If he gets any stronger, he'll break through the Extreme Realm. Could it be that Haotian has already broken through the Extreme Realm?"

Can we believe what he says?

Source Ancestor snapped out of his reverie, and upon hearing the questioning Sage, a faint sadness appeared in his eyes as he said:

"At this point, he has no reason to deceive us. Besides, he has only been cultivating for a short time. The formations we have mastered are ineffective. How could he possibly possess more knowledge than us?"

The Sage's expression changed slightly, and he immediately fell silent.

The other Sage remained silent. Indeed, Li Hao's cultivation period was too short, and his skills in weapon crafting, alchemy, and formations were incomparable to theirs. However, Li Hao's cultivation aptitude was unparalleled throughout history, and he might truly be able to break through to the Extreme Realm.

"If that's the case, how about we cooperate with him and seek refuge together?"

A Sage suggested this.

"Will he accept it? We almost fought him to the death before," a Sage countered.

"There are no eternal enemies. Now that the Ancient Demon Descent, he must be lacking allies. If we join forces, we can at least bring him some benefits," the Sage said.

Source Ancestor's eyes flickered, and he did not deny the suggestion, but he had a feeling of unease in his heart. Although he had not had much contact with the boy, he was deeply impressed by the boy's clear and cold eyes.

Those eyes seemed indifferent and peaceful, yet they possessed a kind of aloof pride, indicating that they were not people who would easily bow their heads.

But no matter what, we should still give it a try.

The Source Ancestor immediately sent out a message, summoning all the saints to explain what had been verified.

Upon hearing the news from the Source Ancestor, all the Sacred Capital shocked. If it were only the Medicine Saint who spoke, they would still have some doubts, but since the Source Ancestor said so, then it was undoubtedly true.

This news instilled in the Sage of various Sacred Land a sense of utter defeat, a feeling of being unable to resist, along with a sense of dread and disorientation. Could it be that they had truly brought about the end of the Heavenly Realms?

Not long after, the saints gathered again, but this time there were four or five fewer of them.

In just one day, four or five Sages have already perished.

This speed made the other Sage feel an even greater sense of urgency.

Li Hao's Sacred Land was half-built when the Source Ancestor and the God King led the saints to this place.

Li Hao raised an eyebrow slightly; he didn't publicize these coordinates.

Seeing Li Hao frown, Source Ancestor's attitude remained extremely gentle as he said, "Lord Haotian, please don't misunderstand. Your location was calculated by us."

Li Hao didn't know any formations, nor did he set up any around him. The place he chose was just a temporary site for building the Sacred Land. The Sacred Land would move with him like Floating Islands.

Hearing the words of the Source Ancestor, Li Hao didn't say much, but asked a question he already knew the answer to:

"If you all come here, who will guard the breach?"

Upon hearing this, Source Ancestor and the others looked somewhat embarrassed. They were the ones who opened the breach, but now they had all left, only wanting to avoid disaster.

"What happened before was indeed our fault. We understand if you don't forgive us. We've come here now because we want to join forces with you. We'll all follow your orders, and we'll seek refuge together. What do you say?"

Source Ancestor spoke softly.

Li Hao was already used to his gentle and peaceful demeanor, and remained unmoved. He said indifferently:

"I can forgive you, but I fear the spirits of the Heavenly Realms will not. As for the alliance, I have no need for it; you may do as you please."

Source Ancestor and the others looked somewhat stiff, not expecting that despite their humble attitude, Li Hao still wouldn't give them a friendly look.

"Are you really going to fight us to the death?"

One of the Sage couldn't help but say.

Li Hao sneered; he'd only managed three sentences before his tail was already wagging.

"A fight to the death? Then you try it."

Li Hao narrowed his eyes, staring at the Sage.

The man's expression changed. He felt a chill run down his spine as he was stared at by Li Hao's gaze, and his soul trembled. He was horrified, realizing that Li Hao was more terrifying than he had imagined.

"Don't waste time here. You should already be grateful that I've told you the formation is useless. Otherwise, if you keep foolishly guarding your Sacred Land, at least half of you will be dead by the time you realize what's happening."

Li Hao said coldly.

Upon hearing Li Hao's words, the saints were speechless, yet they knew that what Li Hao said was true.

Among the crowd was the Sword Saint. His eyes were filled with complex emotions. He wanted to speak, but he realized that he and Li Hao were merely nodding acquaintances, far less close than his senior brother's relationship with Li Hao, who was that of true friends.
