Heart Questioning Nine Echoes stirred up a storm

"Young lady, please look elsewhere."

Cui Yuesheng of the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion said.

The Shen Xiuhua's almond-shaped eyes flashed with a hint of malice as she said, "As a member of the Heaven One Sect, how can you be so cowardly?!"

Cui Yuesheng frowned slightly and snorted coldly, "Miss, don't talk nonsense. You belong to the Disaster Clan. Although you have extraordinary talent, you don't have the fortune of Heavenly Prodigy. I'm only thinking of the millions of disciples in the Sect."

"Hmph, even great fortune can't outweigh the calamity that befalls me."

Shen Xiuhua sneered, her eyes revealing disdain and contempt.

Cui Yuesheng's face turned cold, and he said, "If you continue to spout nonsense, disaster Descent immediately!"

Sensing the aura emanating from him, the Shen Xiuhua clenched her slender fingers slightly, unwilling to back down. She cultivated the way of the Sword Dao and had already inquired about the various forces that had come here. Among them, only the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion was the most suitable for her, and she also wanted to learn one of the Emperor Sword from the Wanshan Sword Tower.

If we retreat now, we will have no other chance.

As her almond-shaped eyes flickered, a figure, reeking of alcohol, drifted over.

"Young lady, if this place won't keep you, there are plenty of other places that will. Why be so persistent?"

The Red-Nosed Old Man chuckled and stood beside the woman.

Shen Xiuhua's eyes shifted slightly, sensing the imposing aura emanating from the Red-Nosed Old Man. Her gaze narrowed, and she asked, "What sect are you from, and are you willing to accept me?"

The Red-Nosed Old Man thought to himself that this little girl really didn't know how to speak. She had introduced herself to the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion in front of them; wasn't she just asking for trouble? He chuckled and said:

Let's talk over there.

Cui Yuesheng narrowed his eyes slightly, recognizing the Red-Nosed Old Man. He raised an eyebrow and said indifferently:

"Great Dream Nine Abyss, what audacity! Are you planning to throw caution to the wind and do whatever you want?"

The Red-Nosed Old Man's expression changed slightly. Realizing he'd been seen through, there was no need to hide it anymore. He smiled faintly and said:

"Young man, watch your words. Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Catastrophe, the Great Dream Nine Abyss was the Heaven One Sect, before the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion was even built."

"And now?"

Cui Yuesheng sneered and retorted.

The Red-Nosed Old Man slightly turned his head, a hint of coldness appearing in his eyes. At the same time, the Wine Gourd behind him seemed to heat up and turn red, and the temperature in the surrounding Heaven and Earth also slowly rose.

Cui Yuesheng sensed the faint but powerful aura emanating from the other party, like a dragon emerging from the abyss, which alerted him and made his gaze darken.

"Senior, if you are willing to take me in, I will certainly not let you down."

At this moment, the Shen Xiuhua spoke up. She stared intently at the Red-Nosed Old Man, her expression exceptionally serious. Upon hearing this, the old man's aura gradually dissipated, and he adopted the demeanor of a reclusive sage, gently stroking his beard and smiling:

"Those whom the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion dares not accept, the Great Dream Nine Abyss dares to accept; those Swordsmanship that the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion lacks, the Great Dream Nine Abyss possesses. Little girl, coming to the Great Dream Nine Abyss is the right choice for you!"

His clothes were tattered like a beggar's, and his current demeanor and expression made him look rather comical.

But Shen Xiuhua's eyes did not show disdain or mockery; instead, she nodded earnestly.

"Yue Xi, Disaster Clan, wishes to become your disciple, senior."

"Haha, no rush, no rush. There will be a formal apprenticeship ceremony when we return to the sect."

The Red-Nosed Old Man laughed heartily.

To be able to take in a Prodigy with the talent to Heart Questioning Eight Echoes, even though he belongs to the Disaster Clan, his Heavenly Talent is absolutely unquestionable.

Upon seeing this, Cui Yuesheng sneered, said nothing more, and turned back to his giant sword.

"How should I address you, senior? What are the requirements for accepting disciples in your Sect?"

Yue Xi asked, explaining that she had only previously revealed the power of the Heart Questioning Eight Echoes and the Eternal Dao Heart. She had intended to demonstrate her Swordsmanship at the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion, but the other party had directly rejected her.

"Your Dao Heart is enough; I believe your Heavenly Talent is exceptional."

"Red-Nosed Old Man said."

Seeing his response, Yue Xi didn't press him further. She was confident that her Swordsmanship was no less than that of the many talented Heavenly Prodigy who had come to seek apprenticeship in the Square. She had only glanced at the Sword Intent left behind by the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion a few times and had already grasped its essence. If she were to seriously study it, she believed she could master it in less than three days.

"When shall we return to the Sect?"

Yue Xi asked.

"No rush, there's still a little one, let's wait for him."

The Red-Nosed Old Man smiled and said, "I wonder if that little fellow can meet the requirements."

He muttered to himself, "I said I would ask for six strikes of the heart, but that was just to show off my strength in front of that Great Dream Nine Abyss man. If he really can't do it, five strikes would be enough. Even four strikes—I'll test his Sword Dao Aptitude later. If he passes, I might not be unable to take him in."

After all, the Great Dream Nine Abyss of today is not the same as it was Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Catastrophe.

"Um?"

Upon hearing the Red-Nosed Old Man's words, Yue Xi's eyes flickered slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.

Just then, a sudden ringing sound emanated from the sixth floor of the Heart Questioning Pagoda.

The two looked over at the same time and saw that the sixth floor of the Heart Questioning Pagoda was trembling slightly.

Upon reaching the fifth level of the Heart Questioning Pagoda, if Dao Heart is stirred, the outside world will already sense it; upon reaching the sixth level...

The sensation will be more pronounced.

The eight sounds of the Yue Xi earlier were heard by many people outside.

"Six Sounds of Inquiry into the Heart"?

"It seems another Prodigy has been born."

"This is already a mid-level Chaos Dao Heart, enough to allow him to reach the Peak Immortal Lord Realm!"

"If it's seven strikes, then that Dao Heart is enough to make one an invincible powerhouse in the Immortal Lord Realm, capable of All Under Heaven the Four Regions of the True World!"

In the Square, many people noticed that they stared at each other intently and talked in hushed tones.

The Red-Nosed Old Man turned to look at the small mound, only to find that the boy who had been sitting there Angling was gone. His eyes flickered slightly. Could it be that the kid really had six hits?

As the Red-Nosed Old Man arrived at the side of the Shen Xiuhua woman, Li Hao also put away his string and stood up. He brushed off the dry grass stuck to his buttocks and flew towards the Heart Questioning Pagoda.

Beside him, the old man with the tumor-like leg remained quietly Angling, showing no reaction to his departure.

Many people rushed to the Heart Questioning Pagoda, and Li Hao followed them inside. Along the way, he overheard other Saint-Level beings asking their elders how the Heart Questioning Pagoda Inquiry was conducted, and he also overheard the method.

As soon as he entered the tower, darkness enveloped him, seemingly confining him to a separate world.

All traces of the surrounding Aura vanished, along with all sound.

The Heart Questioning Pagoda now only has ten floors. It is said that the top of the tower was destroyed and is now incomplete. Originally, it was able to observe the Heavenly Dao Emperor Heart.

To test Dao Heart, one must climb step by step.

The Red-Nosed Old Man was referring to the Six Sounds, the Chaos Dao Heart, etc. Li Hao planned to go to the sixth floor of the Heart Questioning Pagoda.

But as his thoughts drifted, the darkness before him was suddenly pushed aside by a majestic and awe-inspiring Imperial Ruler Aura. Immediately afterward, the Cloudmist in the sky billowed and rippled violently like boiling water, and then a giant hand emerged from the Cloudmist and pushed out.

The palm lines of the giant hand were clearly visible, like an ancient god, pressing down from the sky.

Accompanied by an overwhelming and invincible aura, the entire world trembled violently, and beneath that giant palm stood a colossal city overlooking an abyss.

In the center of that giant city stood a towering tower, like an iron nail in the earth.

The giant hand slammed down towards the tower, and also towards Li Hao. Its boundless, majestic power descended, inspiring awe and submission in all who beheld it.

Fear arose in his heart, his Dao Heart trembled, and his Primordial Spirit felt as if it were about to collapse and flee.

Li Hao held his breath, feeling all his strength trapped within his body, with only his own Conviction allowing him to stand tall before the giant hand.

Kneeling, fleeing, begging for mercy, screaming in agony---

Numerous thoughts flashed through his mind, but were all severed by a clear, ringing Sword Qi.

In his mind, images flashed of hands placing chess pieces, of laughter flicking the strings, of ink being poured from brushes...

The fear and anxiety in his heart quietly dissipated, and his expression gradually calmed down. At this moment, he seemed to be standing on the top of that tower, quietly gazing at the giant hand that descended and covered the entire city.

The collapse of the Heavenly Dao... What does it have to do with me? That boundless power swept past, brushing against my pupils, and then everything vanished like smoke, as if in Ru Meng.

Darkness returned to my eyes.

However, a series of buzzing sounds appeared in Li Hao's mind.

Five shots, six shots, seven shots-----

The entire Heart Questioning Pagoda seemed to tremble, vibrating wildly for him!

Buzz!

From the outside world, after the six shots, there will be seven!

The first six blasts were only noticed by a few people, but the seventh blast was much louder, and many people noticed it.

I looked towards the Heart Questioning Pagoda.

Then, the eighth shot!

The eighth sound seemed to cause the entire tower to tremble slightly. Most people in the Square noticed it, stopped talking, and looked towards the towering Heart Questioning Pagoda in the Cloud End.

But that wasn't the end; immediately following was the ninth shot!

At this moment, the entire Heart Questioning Pagoda seemed to tremble. The base of the tower connected to the Square, and with the tower as the center, the entire Square seemed to be shaken and trembled!

In an instant, everyone in the Square noticed it and stared in awe at the ancient Heart Questioning Pagoda.

Nine sounds, emanating from the Cloud End atop the tower, from a location obscured by Cloudmist, impossible to see.

In mid-air, on the giant sword of the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion, Cui Yuesheng and the others looked at the Heart Questioning Pagoda with surprise and shock.

With Nine-Ring Dao Heart, such a Dao Heart is enough to reach the pinnacle of Immortal King Completion!

In other words, before reaching the Perfected Immortal King Realm, there's no need to worry about one's temperament; anything involving temperament and State of Mind can be easily overcome!

The Red-Nosed Old Man froze, his eyes widening slightly, a trembling excitement rising in his heart. Could it be that kid?!

Beside him, a look of astonishment appeared on Yue Xi's beautiful face. She had always considered herself invincible in the Dao Heart, with few who could surpass her in the same realm, but now, there was someone who was even better than her.

For a moment, a hint of curiosity appeared in her eyes as she gazed at the Cloudmist, a fierce fighting spirit emanating from her.

On a small, unnoticed mound at the edge of the Square.

The old man with the tumor-like leg, who Angling in the Cloudmist with his hand raised, now had a slight smile on his usually calm face.

He raised his pipe, took a light puff, and as he exhaled the Cloudmist, he tapped the pipe lightly in the Void, creating a faint, invisible vibration.

"Your wings are not yet fully grown, so don't be too dazzling. Dragon Sparrow, Dragon Sparrow —I'll temporarily accept this Heavenly Dragon Aura for you."

As he murmured to himself, the trembling Heart Questioning Pagoda slowly calmed down.

At this moment, the people in the Square gradually came to their senses, their eyes filled with shock.

The Heart Questioning Nine Echoes is considered top- Prodigy even within the Heaven One Sect.

In terms of Dao Heart alone, he is absolutely a rare genius.

"What kind of Prodigy is this? Could it be from the Chaos Clan?"

"He could be Prodigy from the Emperor Clan!"

"Heavens! With the Heart Questioning Nine Echoes, as long as one has sufficient Heavenly Talent, one can cultivate to the Immortal King Completion. Now that the Emperor Lord has vanished, the Immortal King Completion is invincible in the world!"

The Square erupted in excitement, with countless people discussing in shock and gazing intently at the Cloudmist above the Heart Questioning Pagoda.

Feng Boping, the Sword Master, and the others, who had just become disciples and had not yet left the Square, also remained there. Their eyes were filled with surprise, and a figure vaguely appeared in their minds.

The five Immortal Guards who remained, including Lin Sheng and Flower Saint, exchanged glances, all knowing who had caused such a commotion. Their eyes held a mixture of joy and complexity.

Even in the True Realm, that youth's brilliance was undeniable.

At that moment, a figure darted down from the Cloudmist; it was Li Hao.

After the Heart Questioning Nine Echoes ended, Li Hao waited a moment before the surrounding darkness dissipated, revealing a vast expanse of Cloudmist before him, and he found himself nearing the top of the tower.

He looked back and saw a gap in the crack at the top of the tower. He thought of the giant hand; could it be that hand that destroyed it?

Without much thought, he descended through the Cloudmist.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~!

Numerous figures gathered towards Li Hao like shooting stars.

The moment Li Hao landed, the Red-Nosed Old Man rushed over.

At the same time, Cui Yuesheng and others from the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion also rushed over.

In more distant places, other Sect that recruited disciples also rushed over in droves.

In the blink of an eye, Li Hao was surrounded by people from the Sect.

Upon seeing how young Li Hao looked, the Sect were all astonished and delighted.

However, when faced with the Heart Questioning Nine Echoes, the standard of Soul Lifespan can be ignored even if it is exceeded.

"Is it really you?!"

The Red-Nosed Old Man was overjoyed to see Li Hao, but then his eyes widened in shock. This kid who had cheated him out of his money for drinks was far beyond his imagination.

Although he had long recognized Li Hao's extraordinary Heavenly Talent, he never expected him to reach such a level.

"Young man, you must be a sword cultivator. I am Cui Yuesheng from the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion."

Cui Yuesheng spoke quickly.

Upon arriving at the Heart Questioning Floating Pagoda City, Li Hao had already activated his Myriad Manifestation Attribute to conceal himself. Even Cui Yuesheng, as an Immortal Lord, could not detect Li Hao's Body Cultivator, but he could sense through Li Hao's aura that he was a sword cultivator.

Upon hearing Cui Yuesheng's words, the other Sect secretly cursed inwardly.

If we're talking about sword cultivators, there aren't many Sect present that can rival the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion.

"Um.

Li Hao openly admitted that his primary skill was swordsmanship, with fist fighting being a secondary skill.

"Come to my Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion, and I'll guarantee you entry into the inner disciple Sect. With your Heavenly Talent, you'll surely obtain the Sword Seal during the sect competition and be sent to Emperor Sword Mountain to cultivate. My Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion possesses an Emperor Sword Style; if you can master it, Future be enough to help you reach the pinnacle of the True Realm!"

Cui Yuesheng quickly replied, appearing extremely pleased.

The Red-Nosed Old Man inwardly cried out in alarm, saying, "Young man, you promised me before that six strikes would have been enough to enter my Great Dream Nine Abyss. Now that you've struck nine, the other tests are waived. My Great Dream Nine Abyss also has the Emperor Sword Style. If you're interested in anything else, my Great Dream Nine Abyss also has many top-notch Cultivation Method such as Movement Method and formations."

Upon hearing his words, Cui Yuesheng's expression changed slightly, and he said repeatedly:

"Young man, don't listen to his nonsense. The Great Dream Nine Abyss has long since declined; it's now just Heaven Four Sect."

The Red-Nosed Old Man's expression changed, and his entire body suddenly erupted with power as he glared at Cui Yuesheng and said:

"So what if they're from the Heaven Four Sect? Do you want to challenge me?"

?

1

Cui Yuesheng sensed the aura emanating from him; it was actually the Perfection of Immortal Lord Realm. His expression changed drastically. He was only at the Sixth Layer of Immortal Lord Realm, and if they were to truly fight, he would surely be no match for him.

Are you sure you want to compete with my Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion for it?

He could only resort to coercion. Although he was no match for them, the number of experts in the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion was definitely greater than that of the Great Dream Nine Abyss.

The Red-Nosed Old Man sneered and said, "Tell me, do you dare to Sparring with me in front of this young friend?"

3

Seeing the tense standoff between them, the other Sect were secretly astonished, and Sect had already retreated, knowing they couldn't win the competition.

Cui Yuesheng's face darkened. He said, "What resources do you have to cultivate such Prodigy? My Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion has Ninefold Sword Tower, and its Sword Dao Cultivation Method are among the best in the Southern Region. It is also a Sacred Land for sword cultivators. Your Great Dream Nine Abyss's studies are too complicated. Don't waste your talent."

"Stop talking nonsense! When my Great Dream Nine Abyss was the Heaven One Sect, you hadn't even built your towers yet!"

The Red-Nosed Old Man was going all out. Although he had offended the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion and would inevitably be hampered by them in various ways in the future, he had no choice but to fight for such Heavenly Prodigy. The Great Dream Nine Abyss was desperately short of Heavenly Prodigy.

"Hmph, what's the point of constantly bringing up the past? In this world, you're nothing more than the Heaven Four Sect."

Cui Yuesheng sneered.

Li Hao was speechless as he listened to their verbal sparring. He hadn't expected the Red-Nosed Old Man to have lied to him earlier. However, the old man's claim that the Great Dream Nine Abyss was the Heaven One Sect 100,000 Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Catastrophe didn't seem like a complete lie, since he was referring to Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Catastrophe, not the present.

"This guy..." Li Hao felt a little helpless. First he was freeloading, and now he's trying to evade the important issues. In his mind, he really wasn't reliable.

However, the other party was a descendant of the Tian Yang Immortal Emperor Vein who founded the power, so he had some connection with him.

"There's no need for you two to argue."

Li Hao spoke, his mind made up, and not wanting Great Dream Nine Abyss to offend the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion too much, he said to Cui Yuesheng:

"I promised this senior, and a gentleman never goes back on his word. I hope the senior will not take offense."

Cui Yuesheng's expression changed.

The Red-Nosed Old Man was taken aback, then burst into laughter, but a strange feeling stirred within him.

"A gentleman keeps his word, but you made me pay the bill earlier—you're hardly a gentleman!"

He didn't believe Li Hao's words and couldn't help but feel a little confused. He was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed that Cui Yuesheng had exposed his earlier words, but Li Hao didn't seem to mind.

"The gap between the Heaven One Sect and Heaven Four Sect is still quite large." "Young man, don't ruin your future because of a moment of impulsiveness. The Great Dream Nine Abyss is no longer as glorious as it once was. Don't listen to his boasting."

Cui Yuesheng gazed at Li Hao and tried to persuade him.

The Red-Nosed Old Man retorted angrily, "How could you possibly imagine the depths of my Great Dream Nine Abyss?"

Li Hao cupped his hands to Cui Yuesheng and said, "Thank you, senior. My mind is made up."

Seeing Li Hao's decisive action, Cui Yuesheng's expression flickered with uncertainty. In the end, he glared hatefully at the Red-Nosed Old Man, then turned and left.

The Red-Nosed Old Man smiled broadly, his eyebrows almost dancing with delight. After everyone else had left, he said to Li Hao:

"Young man, you have a good eye. But I was right about one thing: the foundation of my Great Dream Nine Abyss is beyond their imagination!"

Li Hao shook his head and smiled. This old man had no credibility left in his heart, and he was too lazy to investigate further. In any case, the difference in the Sect didn't have much impact on his cultivation.

Beside her, Yue Xi stared at Li Hao without saying a word. Cui Yuesheng was vying for Li Hao, arguing with the Red-Nosed Old Man nose until their faces were red. She felt a chill in her heart. Although she was an eight-sound, the difference between her and a nine-sound was not great. However, she had offered herself up, but was rejected by the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion.

Her resolve grew stronger, and she vowed to make Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion regret it deeply in the future.

"Let's go back to the clan."

The Red-Nosed Old Man was overjoyed, extremely happy. He had unexpectedly taken in two Prodigy on his trip!

Although one of them was Disaster Clan, Great Dream Nine Abyss was no longer afraid of any Calamity Clan, especially since he had a way to suppress the effects of the other party's physique.

Li Hao said, "Wait, I still have friends here."

The Red-Nosed Old Man slapped his forehead, only then remembering the Xu Nuo he had made to Li Hao. He smiled and said:

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

With Li Hao's Dao Heart and aptitude, he wouldn't mind if Li Hao brought a few more friends Past. It would just mean a few more Outer Sect Disciple. In any case, one would still have to rely on their own abilities to obtain cultivation resources at the Sect.

Li Hao parted ways with him temporarily, and then went to the Square to find Lin Sheng and the others.

Congratulations, sir.

When Lin Sheng and the others saw Li Hao land, attracting countless gazes, they smiled and congratulated Li Hao.

Li Hao smiled and said, "Although you are my Immortal Guard, I will not restrict you. Go and find other Sect. If there is a suitable one, you can go and study there. This will help us build a foundation, and you can continue to follow me."

The five exchanged glances. Flower Saint Sacred Dao, "We had considered this before. With your strength, we can't protect you. You might even have to protect us. It would be better if we went to other forces, gathered our strength, and prepared for the future."

Li Hao nodded.

Now that he has received the Immortal Emperor's inheritance and become formal disciple, if he becomes Personal Disciple in the future, he will inherit the Immortal Emperor's great cause.

Naturally, we must also restore the Immortal Emperor's prestigious reputation.

There will inevitably be some turbulence at that time, so we need to plan ahead for the future and consolidate our power base.

"In that case, we'll go to another Sect."

Chen Baoyu said to Winter Blade.

Lin Sheng looked at Li Hao and said, "I just inquired and found that the Great Dream Nine Abyss has the Spear Abyss lineage. I can go and learn from them."

Earlier, the Red-Nosed Old Man and Cui Yuesheng and others were fighting over Li Hao. Their voices could be heard by most people in the Square, since most of those present were Saint-Level beings Divine Sense could cover the Square.

Li Hao nodded and did not refuse.

"I possess unparalleled Immortal Arts here. Each of you should study one of them diligently and master them well, so that you too can reach the pinnacle of the True Immortal realm."

Li Hao said.

He collected six supreme immortal Immortal Arts in the Heavenly Calamity Imperial Palace. The Imperial Hall did not explicitly forbid him from teaching them to others. After all, those Ten Supreme Immortal Arts were not unique to the Tian Yang Immortal Emperor, but were supreme immortal Immortal Arts widely circulated in the True Realm, and were also collected by other major sects.

Upon hearing Li Hao's words, the five exchanged glances, all filled with joy.

Li Hao transmitted his Divine Sense, imparting his teachings according to the Sacred Dao they cultivated.

If the Cultivation Method is not suitable, the "Purple Forbidden" and "Ten Thousand Shadows" immortal Immortal Arts will be taught. Anyone can cultivate these two techniques, but they need to master the corresponding Origin Great Dao.

Mastering even one supreme Immortal Arts allows one to roam freely in the True Immortal Realm.

Among them is the Spear Dao Immortal Arts "Thunder Roar," which requires mastering the Thunder Dao Origin. Thunder Dao is one of the more difficult Origin to master besides the Nine Orders, and its attack and destruction are extremely powerful.

Lin Sheng's real name is Lin Yu Feng. After obtaining the Thunder Roar Immortal Arts, he was shocked and could feel the terror of this Immortal Arts.

After passing the message to them, Li Hao took Lin Yu Feng back and introduced him to the Red-Nosed Old Man.

The Red-Nosed Old Man glanced at Lin Yu Feng and casually asked, "How many resonants of your Dao Heart are there?"

Four sounds.

Lin Yu Feng felt slightly embarrassed.

Seeing this, the Red-Nosed Old Man didn't ask any further questions. After all, he had entered through the back door using Li Hao's connections, and he was too lazy to delve into it. He asked Li Hao, "Can we go back now?"

"Wait a little longer."

Li Hao looked at Lin Qingying, who was still meditating with her eyes closed.

The Red-Nosed Old Man asked helplessly, "How long?"

"I don't know, but it won't be long."

The Red-Nosed Old Man rolled his eyes slightly, but since this young man was now highly sought after, he couldn't very well provoke him before bringing him back to the Sect. Besides, Cui Yuesheng was still thinking about him, so he had no choice but to go along with Li Hao.

Li Hao had Lin Yu Feng follow the Red-Nosed Old Man, while he himself returned to the small hillside.

When they parted ways, he had already secretly passed on the Ten Immortal Arts he had mastered to Old Feng and the Sword Master, among others, when he came to the True Realm.

Each person was assigned two techniques. Li Hao didn't pass on many to them because these supreme immortal Immortal Arts were obscure and difficult to understand. Unlike them, who had mastered the Space Great Dao, they would find it exceptionally difficult to cultivate. However, if they could master them and continuously improve, they would achieve great success.

"The Great Dream Nine Abyss is not far from here."

Just as Li Hao sat down to Angling, the old man with the long legs calmly said, "If you have time, you can come and visit often."

Li Hao was surprised, then nodded and said, "That's good. I'll come often until I catch a Dragon Sparrow."

Upon hearing this, the old man with rotten legs twitched slightly at the corners of his mouth, as if he were smiling, but the meaning of that smile was ambiguous. His expression returned to its usual indifference, and he took a drag of his Long Pipe, the smoke obscuring his face.

"Once they're all gone, it'll be quiet here, unlike how noisy it is now."

"Sometimes it's good to have a lively atmosphere."

Li Hao said.

You're still young, I'm old, and I don't like noise.

The Limping Old Man shook the wine gourd in his hand and said, "You like wine?"

I like drinking buddies.

"Ha ha·--"

The old man with the tumor-like leg chuckled, then tossed the wine gourd to Li Hao, "Then it's yours."

Li Hao was surprised. In the past few days, the old man had given him a lukewarm feeling and didn't seem like someone easy to get close to.

However, he didn't stand on ceremony, took the gourd, shook it, and said, "It seems there's not much left."

The old man with the tumor-like leg fell silent again.

Several days later.

Lin Qingying opened her eyes, and the realization she had gained made her focus on the sword the instant she opened them, and she raised her hand and swung it out.

She used her finger as a sword, slashing a faint ripple in the Void.

Cui Yuesheng's eyes swept over the giant sword, his gaze sharpening. The sword mark not only indicated that the young girl had mastered the Ten Thousand Mountains Starting Form, but also seemed to contain a trace of Chaos and ethereal Sword Intent fluctuations.

Although it was extremely subtle, he had wielded the sword for many years and shouldn't have been mistaken.

Could it be...? His eyes flickered, and a hint of unexpected joy surfaced in his heart.

We lost that Prodigy with nine rings before, but this little girl seems to be able to make up for it somewhat.

"Good, you've passed."

A woman flew over, her icy face revealing a smile as cold as melting snow to Lin Qingying.

Lin Qingying came to her senses and felt a sense of relief. She immediately turned her head and looked around.

Meanwhile, Li Hao, who Angling on the hillside, had already reeled in his line and rushed over when she Awakening.

"Haotian."

Lin Qingying's eyes lit up with joy.

Seeing the two so close, Cui Yuesheng's heart skipped a beat.

Li Hao smiled and said, "Do you want to become a disciple of the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion, or come with me?"

"I'll go with you."

Lin Qingying was taken aback. Although it seemed strange, she still spoke without thinking.

Cui Yuesheng's face immediately darkened. He coughed lightly and said to Li Hao in a deep voice, "Young man, although I don't know why you became a disciple of Great Dream Nine Abyss, you must have heard some news these past few days. The resources of my Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion in training disciples are far superior to those of Great Dream Nine Abyss!"

Upon hearing this, Li Hao remained noncommittal, which was why he asked Lin Qingying.

"Do you belong to another Sect?" Lin Qingying asked at this moment.

Li Hao nodded, then said, "But as he said, it might be better for you to become an apprentice and cultivate here."

If she were to follow him to the Great Dream Nine Abyss, he could offer her assistance, but at most he would pass on his supreme immortal Immortal Arts; he wouldn't be able to help Lin Qingying with anything else.

Lin Qingying understood, and she shook her head, saying, "Wherever you go, I'll go."

Upon hearing this, Cui Yuesheng's expression changed slightly. He immediately understood the relationship between the two and whispered:

"Young lady, the Sect he studied under is Heaven Four Sect, while my Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion is the Heaven One Sect. The difference is enormous. I see you are destined to become my disciple. If you come to study under me, I can apply for Sword Seal for you, allowing you to directly go to Emperor Sword Mountain to cultivate!"

"The Years of spiritual practice is long. Rather than following in others' footsteps, it's better to catch up with them. Don't you think so?"

Hearing his gentle words of advice, Lin Qingying's heart stirred slightly.

But she didn't change her mind. Instead, she stared at Li Hao and said, "What do you think?"

Li Hao pondered for a moment. He could tell that Cui Yuesheng seemed to care quite a bit about Lin Qingying, so he thought for a moment and said, "If you're thinking about yourself, it would be more suitable for you to go to the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion."

"What if I consider your feelings?"

Lin Qingying suddenly pressed for an answer.

Li Hao felt a slight unease. Seeing the other party's intense gaze, he paused for a moment, then said, "Come to the Great Dream Nine Abyss."

Upon receiving this answer, a smile slowly appeared on Lin Qingying's face, gradually blooming from the corners of her lips until her entire face became radiant.

She whispered, "Then I'll go to the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion. With your Heavenly Talent, you'll definitely reach the pinnacle of the Great Dream Nine Abyss. If I manage to comprehend any Signature Technique at the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion, I'll secretly pass them on to you."

She spoke softly, her eyes full of Wenrou.

Li Hao remained silent, not daring to respond.

"Little girl-."

Seeing the two exchanging glances, Cui Yuesheng feared the young girl might act impulsively and wanted to persuade her.

Lin Qingying turned her head and said, "I'll join the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion."

Cui Yuesheng was taken aback, then breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, "Good, Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion will definitely nurture you well!"

Seeing that she had made her choice, Li Hao nodded slightly, gazed at her for a moment, and said, "Then take good care of yourself."

As he spoke, he took out one of the three willow leaves left by Old Wang and handed it to her.

Lin Qingying looked at the willow leaf with suspicion, sensing that it was some kind of divine treasure.

"It can save your life in a crisis," Li Hao transmitted his voice.

Cui Yuesheng's eyes darkened when he saw the willow leaf, sensing an extremely strong Aura emanating from it. He looked at the young man.

His gaze turned serious. With such a treasure, this young man must have an extraordinary background.

However, the fact that the other party can achieve the Nine-Ring Dao Heart suggests that they may indeed be from a certain Emperor Clan.

Li Hao said goodbye to Lin Qingying. The old man with the bulbous nose found Li Hao, worried that Li Hao might have been Past by Cui Yuesheng.

They desperately wanted to bring him back to the clan.

Li Hao didn't linger any longer. He found Elder Old Feng, who had become an apprentice of one of the Heaven Four Sect and was still there, and handed him the second willow leaf.

Afterwards, Li Hao found the old man with legs on the small hill and said goodbye to him.

"Let's go, let's go."

The old man with the bulbous nose urged them on, not daring to linger, for fear that his two newly accepted Prodigy would be lured away by other forces.

Although he wanted to see if there were any other exceptional Prodigy, he was already extremely satisfied with having Li Hao and Yue Xi.

Lin Yu Feng followed behind Li Hao. Although they were both disciples of Great Dream Nine Abyss and were now both disciples of the Tianzong, he still maintained the respect due to Immortal Guard.

Yue Xi looked at Li Hao. His Dao Heart was higher than hers, meaning his Dao Thought was stronger and his ambitions greater. On the way away with the old man with the bulbous nose, she asked:

"What level are you at that? Do you have the chance to cut through the Sword Dao?"

Li Hao was somewhat lost in thought, still pondering Lin Qingying Old Feng, when he heard the woman beside him speak. He snapped out of his reverie and shook his head, saying:

"There's nothing worth cutting."

"Um?"

A glint appeared in Yue Xi's eyes as she said, "You look down on me?"

Li Hao noticed the hint of defiance and coldness in her eyes, paused for a moment, then shook his head, somewhat speechless, and said:

"It's just a bit boring. If you want to practice swordsmanship, there should be enough other Senior Brother Senior Sister there to keep you company."

"Is it boring?"

Upon hearing Li Hao's words, Yue Xi was immediately incredulous.

How can a sword cultivator say that the Sword Dao is boring and tedious?

It should be understood that most sword cultivators and saber cultivators are keen on Sparring, as this allows them to improve faster. They might even encounter an evenly matched opponent and enjoy drinks together, which is a fortunate thing.

The Red-Nosed Old Man, sitting on the Wine Gourd in front of him, couldn't help but turn around and look at Li Hao suspiciously upon hearing this. He hadn't verified Li Hao's Sword Dao Aptitude before, and this suddenly seemed a bit unreliable.
