Two Hundred Divine Bones

Who is Chong Er?

At the Great Dream Nine Abyss War Camp, the elders of the Nine Abysses and the Heavenly Prodigy disciples of Nine Abysses were all gathered here. They looked up at the magnificent Immortal Merit Board, and when they saw the name appearing on the golden light, they all showed surprise and doubt, having never heard of such a person before.

"The person who was just ranked in the top 100 has been pushed down; this is a newcomer who has never been on the list before."

"Other Immortal Sect don't have such a person; they're mostly members of the immortal army, so they have nothing to do with us."

"Fortunately, Qing Xuan hunted down quite a few Ancient Demon this time, which improved his Immortal Merit. He is currently ranked 98th and has not fallen down."

"Qing Xuan, Shuangxue, and the two elders are now our Immortal Sect's only hope."

"Our entire Immortal Merit now possesses over 1.5 million Immortal Merit. With this battle, we'll accumulate a combined Immortal Merit!"

"I just looked at the Five Great Heaven One Sects and they also gained a lot. The Illusory Sea Gate gained nearly two million Immortal Merit, in addition to what they had before..."

It's already surpassed three million!

"The other Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion and Star Palace follow closely behind, only about 100,000 units behind."

"Compared to them, we still have a long way to go, but our total number of Immortal Merit has already caught up with some of the Heaven Two Sect!"

The crowd buzzed with discussion, and both Wei Hongye and Lu Wu Chen looked at their Eldest Senior Brother with admiration in their eyes.

In the Great Dream Nine Abyss, Sword Abyss is now supported by Ji Qingxuan. Among the disciples of Nine Abysses, only Qin Shuangxue of Spear Abyss can surpass them.

None of the other seven abysses could compare to Ji Qingxuan.

However, although it brings glory to their lineage, this competition for the Immortal Merit Board is not only about the many benefits of the Immortal Merit themselves, but also about the honor and disgrace of the entire Sect. They also hope that even more Prodigy figures will emerge from other abysses.

Unfortunately, we haven't seen it yet.

"This Chong Er's name is strange; it might not be his real name. I wonder who he is."

Lu Wu Chen looked up at the Immortal Merit Board, his calm eyes flickering slightly.

Wei Hongye nodded, a helpless smile appearing on her lips, and said, "If someone could join our Immortal Sect Immortal Merit, that would be great. With his Immortal Merit, he could even rival the Sword Tower of Fangshan."

"To be able to hunt down so many Immortal Merit, and yet not having been on the Immortal Merit Board before, means that Immortal Merit is still inferior to that of Eldest Senior Brother."

Lu Wu Chen shook his head and said, "To establish so many Immortal Merit from just one battle, one could only be a high- Immortal Lord Realm."

The term "high position" refers to the Sixth Layer to ninth level.

"High-level Immortal Lord Realm"

Wei Hongye stared at that name. The goal of many True Immortal Qiongqi throughout their lives was to become a powerful figure in the Immortal Lord Realm.

As for the King Realm, they are overlords in the entire True Realm, and it is difficult to reach that level through Heavenly Talent and cultivation alone; they also need rare fortuitous opportunity.

Even obtaining the inheritance of a so-called Immortal King Realm expert, or finding some Chaos treasures, may not necessarily allow Immortal Lord Realm to break through that threshold.

Because King Realm cannot cultivate another King Realm. Only King Realm expert at the Perfection of his or even Quasi-Emperor Realm expert has a chance of cultivating King Realm through his own methods and strategies.

"Take good care of yourself. I wonder what the next Ancient Demon invasion will bring. If it doesn't happen again within ten years, then the Immortal Merit Board among the various sects will be completely settled."

Ji Qingxuan's expression was solemn as he spoke to the two of them.

Wei Hongye and Lu Wu Chen exchanged a slight change in expression, their moods suddenly becoming somewhat heavy.

"If that's the case, then we can only rely on our Junior Sister to achieve a higher ranking in the Southern Region Assembly Battle."

"That would put too much pressure on them."

Lu Wu Chen clenched his fingers slightly, his eyes growing deep.

"In that case, they must rank ahead of all the Heaven One Sect 'Heavenly Prodigy geniuses in the Southern Region Assembly Battle in order for our Sect to regain its former glory—"

Four figures flashed through Wei Hongye's mind: the stubborn and hardworking Yue Xi, the lively and adorable Murong Qingwu,

Gu Yan, with her exceptional Heavenly Talent, and Haotian, who was always lazy yet whose true nature she couldn't fathom.

Despite their different personalities, they all have one thing in common: they are young and full of energy.

It's already extremely difficult for them to compete with the top Heavenly Prodigy of the Heaven One Sect, let alone surpass them.

"If the Ancient Demon invade again, I will kill more, more—" Wei Hongye muttered to herself.

Apart from the Great Dream Nine Abyss War Camp, other Immortal Sect Battle Battalion were also discussing Chong Er, while also taking stock of and calculating the Immortal Merit accumulated in this battle.

"A single battle has accumulated a million Immortal Merit; it seems powerful reinforcements have arrived."

"That Ancient Demon suffered a crushing defeat this time, and it's possible it won't make a comeback for at least the Future ten years."

"If that's the case, this Immortal Merit Board will be the final competition. We need to get the news back to the Sect first and urge the participating disciples to do their best. We can only place our hopes on them."

The various Immortal Sect are all discussing and secretly vying for power.

In the Yinglong Imperial Guard Camp of the Wildfire Camp city.

Shi Tianjin, Huo Xiaoqi, and the others looked up at the golden Immortal Merit Board above their heads, and their expressions changed when they saw the names on it.

Although I had some idea that Li Hao would leave, I didn't expect Li Hao to have made such a leap.

On the Immortal Merit Board, where millions of soldiers from Qinghe Fallen City gather, they can occupy more than fifty places!

It should be noted that this group includes many powerful individuals at the Immortal Lord Realm.

There are at least several thousand people!

To reach the top 100 of the Immortal Merit Board is extremely difficult. In addition to combat strength, one also needs to actively participate in battles and slay demons, all of which require risking one's life.

"That guy—"

Huo Xiaoqi stared intently, clenching his fists involuntarily. He had thought he was already Heavenly Prodigy of the Illusory Sea Gate, hiding his identity here, but he never expected to encounter such a remarkable person.

The thought of Southern Region Assembly Battle suddenly stirred a boiling current in his heart. (Water Moon Hall, within the Secret Realm of the courtyard)

Gu Xingwan turned her head and stared blankly at Li Hao. True Immortal Realm Third Layer. A million Immortal Merit?

Gu Changming already knew about Li Hao's situation, so he wasn't surprised. He was just a little sentimental, since he hadn't seen such a young and Prodigy talent for many years.

He said to Li Hao, "The 1.92 million Immortal Merit from the battlefield have been transmitted back to the Immortal Capital Imperial City. Once His Majesty approves, they will be added to your Identity Token. Combined with your current Immortal Merit, you'll have over three million."

Li Hao nodded. Those 192 units of Immortal Merit were a completely unexpected surprise. On his way here, he had glanced at the total number of Immortal Merit of other Heaven One Immortal Sect, and it seemed that some of them were less than three million, which was not as good as his.

Gu Xingwan, who was standing next to her, remained silent.

There are still 1.92 million Immortal Merit that haven't been credited to your account?

If that Immortal Merit were to be acquired, and all the stats were combined, what ranking would I achieve?

She silently watched Li Hao, and the Immortal Arts she had wanted to inquire about earlier suddenly seemed rather dull and uninteresting to her now.

Whether it was the previous Azure Sky Immortal Technique, the recent duel, or the exaggerated Immortal Merit at this moment—it's hard to imagine that all of these could be concentrated in a young man at the third level of the True Immortal Realm Third Layer.

Furthermore, the fact that the opponent was able to participate in the Southern Region Assembly Battle indicates that their Soul Lifespan is less than Three Thousand Years.

"I've already ordered dinner to be prepared. Come on, let's have a drink."

Gu Changming smiled and beckoned Li Hao to head towards the Main Hall.

"That would require fine wine," Li Hao said with a smile.

Gu Changming couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Straightforward, no problem. The food might not suit your taste, but the wine will definitely satisfy you."

Gu Xingwan stood there, watching the old man and the young man walk away. Her expression became complicated, but suddenly she seemed to think of something, her cheeks flushed slightly, she snorted softly, and followed them.

Under the dim moon and sparse stars, Gu Changming did not disappoint Li Hao. Although the food was good, it was not as good as Li Hao's cooking skills. However, the Drunken Dragon's Roar he brought out caught Li Hao's eye.

Fine wine is also a delicacy. Although Li Hao can brew wine, he admits he can't replicate the taste of Drunken Dragon's Roar.

After a night of heavy drinking, Li Hao slept soundly. The previous fierce battles and the Three Months Beyond the Border had kept him on his toes, and now he was finally able to get a good night's sleep.

Gu Changming was also a little drunk, but not drunk to the point of passing out. He looked at the boy who was fast asleep, drool dripping from the corner of his mouth.

He couldn't help but smile and said:

"He's quite a genuine and sincere young man."

Gu Xingwan, sitting to the side, saw the unconscious boy and couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, why did you give him so much to drink?"

"What, are you starting to worry?"

Gu Changming glanced at her and, seeing the girl's ears turn red, couldn't help but laugh. He said, "Don't worry, this kid's physical body is incredibly strong, and his Immortal Body is top-tier. Even if the Drunken Dragon's Roar were intoxicated by just one drop of this Drunken Ancestral Dragon's Roar, this kid can withstand it!"

At this point, he glanced at the several empty jars beside him, a hint of heartache flickering in his eyes. He carefully put the jars away.

He then flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

"Grandfather?"

Seeing Gu Changming leave like that, Gu Xingwan was somewhat stunned.

In an instant, only she and the sleeping boy beside her remained in the pavilion.

The Cloudmist are ethereal, and the Star and Moon are silent.

When the glaring sunlight shone again, Li Hao woke up groggily, but instead of feeling dizzy, he felt refreshed all over.

He stretched, feeling a surge of intense, powerful energy within him. When he sat up, he found himself covered with a soft blanket, embroidered with tiny white pigs along the edges.

Li Hao chuckled to himself; with his physique, how could he possibly catch a cold?

Li Hao lifted the blanket and glanced around. Apart from the mess of wine bowls and dishes scattered all over the floor, the grandfather and grandson were gone.

He calmly got up, tidied himself up, and then flew down from the pavilion. With his Divine Sense spreading, he saw the Qian Qian figure practicing swordsmanship by the arched bridge in the courtyard.

Where is your grandfather?

Li Hao stepped forward and asked.

Gu Xingwan stopped her swordplay, turned around and looked Li Hao up and down, then asked, "Are you leaving?"

Um.

"This courtyard is the Water Moon Secret Realm. Cultivating here will enhance your understanding of the Water Dao Origin," Gu Xingwan said immediately.

Li Hao had already noticed this, and said, "I know."

"If you want to stay, I can talk to Grandpa and let you stay here to cultivate."

"That's not necessary."

Li Hao quickly waved his hand.

Seeing Li Hao's anxious look, Gu Xingwan couldn't help but feel a hint of anger on her beautiful and gentle face.

"Your grandfather is busy with many things. Since he's not here, I'll take my leave now. Just give him my regards later," Li Hao said, waving his hand.

After saying that, he teleported away without waiting for the other party's reply.

"You-"

Gu Xingwan wanted to give chase, but found that she could no longer catch Li Hao's Aura or trajectory. She was secretly shocked and somewhat annoyed.

Cultivating in this Water Moon Secret Realm is something many people dream of. Only those disciples of my grandfather who are particularly favored are qualified to cultivate here.

"You ungrateful wretch!"

She gritted her teeth slightly, stepped forward, then remembered that the other party would participate in the Southern Region Assembly Battle. Her eyes lit up, she snorted, and headed towards the Main Hall.

She went straight into the dark hall, and her Immortal Power slowly changed as she began her true cultivation.

When Li Hao returned to Yinglong Imperial Guard Camp, Shi Tianjin and the others stood up and greeted Li Hao warmly.

Li Hao greeted Huo Xiaoqi and then returned to his courtyard.

Then, he unfolded his Dao Domain, extending the space within Dao Domain. Within a small area, the interior space stretched for hundreds of miles, making this Small Courtyard comparable in size to the Secret Realm.

He took out the Ancient Demon Corpse and Cooking it inside.

Once the meat Cooking, Li Hao began to nourish himself.

Time flies.

Li Hao Seclusion in the courtyard, and Shi Tianjin and the others dared not disturb him. After all, Li Hao was no longer the same as before, possessing millions of Immortal Merit. As long as his identity was Innocent, he could join the Chu Immortal Army.

With his daily sustenance from Ancient Demon, Li Hao's Primordial Spirit was rapidly improving. Half a year Past, the Primal Spirit Golden Bone increased from 72 to 160, and he had not yet reached his limit, continuing to grow steadily.

However, Li Hao's Primordial Spirit strength had undergone a significant change compared to before. Even in a mere Primordial Spirit duel, Li Hao felt...

I'm already capable of directly confronting low-level Immortal Lord Realm!

Over time, Li Hao stopped focusing on improving his Primal Spirit Golden Bone, and instead devoted his attention to Ancient Demon Cooking.

For the past Three Months and now for the past six months, Li Hao has been eating the flesh and blood of Ancient Demon every day. Although the taste is excellent, he is getting tired of it. He is increasingly pursuing a more extreme enjoyment and is also pondering a deeper level of Cooking.

However, there has been no progress so far.

Li Hao wasn't in a hurry. He would slowly ponder while Cooking each day, undisturbed, allowing him to focus all his attention on the Cooking.

In the middle, the 1.92 million Immortal Merit have been approved and added to his Identity Token. Together with his own 1.37 million Immortal Merit, he has a total of 3.29 million Immortal Merit!

And his name rose to number 19 on the Immortal Merit Board!

Those who reached these positions were all Years who had fought countless battles in Qinghe Fallen City, with outstanding military achievements, and were ready to be promoted to other positions and granted official titles and ranks at any time.

The improvement in ranking caused another sensation in the entire Qinghe Fallen City. Countless people discussed it, and some rumors about Immortal Merit also spread, making many people aware that the final victory in that battle was actually related to this Chong Er.

Li Hao True Form, however, paid no attention to these things and focused all his attention on Cooking.

By the time he arrived in this place a year later, his Primal Spirit Golden Bone had broken through to 200!

The power of the Primordial Spirit surged once more, becoming even more dazzling.

Meanwhile, outside, at the teleportation point of the Qingcheng Fallen River, three figures were teleported over, seemingly arriving together.

"Is this the Frontier?"

"What a huge city! The sky is so dark; it seems even the Xingchen has been swallowed up."

"Let's go find our Eldest Senior Brother and the others first. I heard Haotian is here. I wonder how he's doing. We can't fall behind him."

The three figures on the teleportation platform were Murong Qingwu, Yue Xi, and Gu Yan.
