Anger

These Dharma Form joined forces, and the surrounding Immortal Power surged forth, like a silvery-white wave of Immortal Power rippling in the air, spreading and surging in all directions.

Within the billowing Immortal Power, ancient and intricate Immortal Markings emerged, followed by what appeared to be some kind of secret array being opened in the Void.

Outside the Yan Chu Immortal Dynasty, in the Nine Thousand Immortal Cities, the Barrier of each city suddenly lit up. Then, the power buried within the city surged into the Barrier, and Starlight shone from the sky onto a majestic monument in the center of the city.

The monument, drawing upon the Star Power, was then enveloped in Thunder Light and surged towards the sky, dispersing the Cloudmist and connecting with the Ancient Immortal Realm within the Immortal Capital Imperial City spanning billions of miles.

The outline of the Ancient Immortal Realm is reflected in the Cloudmist above the Nine Thousand Immortal Cities.

The figures of the Heavenly Prodigy disciples from various sects of the Yan Chu Immortal Dynasty, gathered from the Nine Thousand Immortal Cities, gradually appeared in the reflected Cloudmist.

At this moment, the Heavenly Prodigy who could stand in this Ancient Immortal Realm have already caught the attention of countless people.

The twenty thousand carefully selected Heavenly Prodigy from various sects all looked up, and above the heads of the thirty-six elders of the State Supervisory Academy, the outlines of Immortal City vaguely appeared in the billowing Immortal Clouds.

Ultimately, the image reflected there settled on a magnificent Imperial Palace.

That was the ancient capital palace of the Yan-Chu Immortal Dynasty, the place where the Yan-Chu Emperor, who ruled over nine thousand immortal cities and endless territories, resided.

The Imperial Palace's image spread throughout the Nine Thousand Immortal Cities, and everyone looked up in awe. Many generals in the cities knelt down to worship, and countless common people also looked on with piety and reverence. Many noble Aristocratic Clan also lowered their heads, which had looked down on the common people, before the projection of the majestic Imperial Palace, like quails and ants with their heads drooping.

"That is the Imperial Palace where the emperors of Emperor Chu reside; only those of the King Realm are permitted to attend court and receive them..."

In the Ancient Immortal Realm, the elders and disciples of various sects revealed awe and gleam in their eyes. They all wanted to personally ascend to that Imperial Hall, but they also knew that if they did not reach the King Realm, they would never be qualified to set foot there in their entire lives.

The King Realm is extremely difficult to cultivate, and the Immortal Lord Realm is a new level with each step. The difference between the Tenth Layer realms is enormous, and each step presents a bottleneck.

"At this very moment, the entire All Under Heaven of Great Yan-Chu knows of you!"

Chu Xiangtian glanced at the illusory image of the Imperial Palace and knew that the Magic Array behind the Imperial Palace had already projected the scene of this Ancient Immortal Realm onto various parts of the Nine Thousand Immortal Cities.

He lowered his gaze, glanced at Li Hao and the other ten people, and then raised his hand again, activating the Immortal Dao Laws and applying them to the black Immortal Stele.

The Immortal Stele trembled, its surface shimmering with golden light. Zhang Xuanyu, ranked Eleventh, was bathed in the golden light, but his expression remained extremely cold. He withdrew his gaze from the Imperial Palace and returned it to the young man on the Immortal Platform before suddenly leaping away.

Soon, he landed quietly beside Li Hao.

"You've broken through the Thirteenth Desolate Domain?"

As soon as he landed on the Immortal Platform, Zhang Xuanyu stared at Li Hao with a cold look in his eyes and asked.

If his opponent was at the Second Level of Immortal Lord Realm, and his realm was equal to his, he would accept defeat despite his resentment.

But the young man before him was only at the True Immortal Realm, which he found hard to accept.

"Without."

Li Hao glanced at the other person and immediately recognized him as the "former ten" that Old Man Li had mentioned. Judging from the undisguised hostility in the other person's eyes, Li Hao had no interest in talking to him any further.

"No? Then how long did you stay in the Twelfth Desolate Domain?"

Zhang Xuanyu couldn't help but shout sternly.

Li Hao raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "Is it necessary to tell you?"

"You!"

Zhang Xuanyu's expression changed. As an Immortal Lord, no True Immortal had ever dared to speak to him like that.

The difference between True Immortal and Immortal Lord Realm is enormous. If True Immortal merely transforms power into pure Immortal Power, then Immortal Lord Realm has already mastered the Immortal Dao Laws Path. These Immortal Dao Laws can render all the Sacred Dao Principle Mastery by True Immortal ineffective.

This is equivalent to someone without the Law Power fighting against someone who Mastery the Law Power, especially when the opponent's Immortal Power is even stronger. It's almost impossible for them to win!

However, there are exceptions. Li Hao's mastery of the Space Dao Origin Fourth Level is already a level that only Immortal Lord Realm can touch. Moreover, as a top-ranking member of the Nine Orders, most Immortal Lord Realm Heavenly Prodigy not be able to master it, and even if they have some understanding, they have not reached such a deep level as the Fourth Layer level.

Moreover, the other Nine Sequence Origin that Li Hao mastered were all at the second or third level, which is extremely rare among True Immortal.

Seeing that the boy was no longer paying attention to him, Zhang Xuanyu's face turned ugly, as if his own things had been stolen, and he had asked for an explanation, only to be slapped in the face.

If it weren't for the fact that Chu Xiangtian was standing nearby, and that the various sects of Yan-Chu below, including the countless Yan-Chu citizens of the Nine Thousand Immortal Cities reflected in the light, were watching, he would never have given up.

"I hope you'll still be this stubborn when the Southern Region Assembly Battle begins!"

Zhang Xuanyu gritted her teeth and spoke to Li Hao in a very low voice.

Li Hao's eyes turned slightly cold. Although he was always calm and easygoing, it didn't mean that others could take advantage of him.

We're not in a master-servant relationship; does failing to answer every question equate to being stubborn?

Don't pick a fight with me.

Li Hao made no attempt to hide his true feelings, staring coldly at the other party.

Zhang Xuanyu's expression changed. He was concerned about his reputation and dared not make a fuss. This young man, on the other hand, was bolder and spoke more bluntly.

He stared intently at Li Hao, his fists clenched, but ultimately held back, remaining silent to avoid damaging the Sect's reputation.

Seeing that the other party remained silent, Li Hao didn't bother to pay any more attention to them.

However, although their conversation was veiled, the other nine people on the Immortal Platform heard it. Some of them glanced over, a mocking smile playing on their lips, clearly looking forward to a good show.

"Using the Sect's Immortal Weapon resources to sneak up here is not a glorious thing; it comes at a price."

The Imperial Daughter from before said with a disdainful smirk.

She spoke slowly and deliberately, her gaze not meeting Li Hao's, but staring blankly ahead, as if talking to thin air. This posture only amplified the humiliation.

Li Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, ignoring it completely.

Xing Lan frowned slightly. Having accompanied this young man for a period of time in the Frontier, she knew that his methods and demeanor in slaying the Ancient Demon were truly impressive. Even if he were to borrow the power of Immortal Weapon here, he wouldn't rely on them too much. Based on his own abilities, she felt that he could at least rank in the top thirty.

In the Realm of the True Immortal Realm, she had never seen a character more powerful than this young man.

Whoosh!

At this moment, the light on the Immortal Stele reappeared, and a golden light shot out, enveloping a young member of the Imperial Clan.

The young man's eyes were gloomy as he stared directly at the boy's figure on the Immortal Platform. He rose from the ground and roared away, landing on the Immortal Platform with immense power.

After he stood still, before the thirteenth person could go on stage, he turned to look at Li Hao and said:

"Boy, a True Immortal Realm cultivator, daring to stand above us Immortal Lord Realm! I don't care if you're acting on orders from your Sect, trying to make a name for yourself, or just trying to gain fame for your Sect. You'd better get down here and go back to where you belong!"

His eyes were cold and commanding, as if his words brooked no argument, and his eyes revealed a chilling disgust.

Unlike Zhang Xuanyu, he didn't try to hide his voice. In an instant, not only the people on the Immortal Platform heard it, but also the elders and stronger disciples of the various sects below the Immortal Platform.

For the True Immortal Realm, the sound of mosquitoes crawling within a thousand miles can be perceived, let alone the sound of normal communication.

Upon hearing the words of this Imperial Clan prince, Zhang Xuanyu was taken aback. His eyes lit up slightly, and a smile appeared on his lips as he looked at Li Hao mockingly.

He dared not make a fuss, he had too many concerns, but this Imperial Clan prince did not have as many concerns as he did.

Those who break the rules will always be punished!

"Tianzheng, don't cause trouble!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiangtian's expression darkened slightly, and he shouted in a low voice.

Chu Tianzheng's expression remained unchanged upon hearing his third brother's words. Instead, he bowed and said, "Third brother, our clan is kind and benevolent, but we shouldn't allow some people to break the rules. During the Southern Region Assembly Battle, no Immortal Weapon Immortal Herb should be used as aids. The competition will be based on true skill. How can the other geniuses be Qi Ingestion if he acts like this!"

Chu Xiangtian's expression changed slightly. He stared intently at him, his eyes flashing as if he was considering how to handle this unexpected situation.

When Chu Tianzheng's words spread, the disciples from various sects below were stunned, exchanging bewildered glances, and then some of them suddenly realized what he meant.

"Did that guy use Immortal Weapon to reach tenth place? No wonder, I was wondering how True Immortal Realm could possibly reach tenth."

"Exactly, the Immortal Lord Realm behind him are already ranked in the twenties or so. How could he possibly surpass the Immortal Lord Realm?"

"Are you kidding me? The True Immortal Realm surpasses the Immortal Lord Realm? Is this the latest lame joke in the last sixty years?"

"If that young man is from the Great Dream Nine Abyss Sect, I've long heard that the Great Dream Nine Abyss Sect covets the position of the Heaven One Sect. They're really going all out this time, but their methods are a bit underhanded. They may gain fame for a while, but when the Southern Region Assembly Battle comes, if they're ranked tenth and get wiped out in one move, that would be a real disgrace."

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

"Great Dream Nine Abyss's wishful thinking has only progressed to this point. As for the Southern Region Assembly Battle, they probably haven't even considered it. With the foundation of the Heaven Four Sect, how could they possibly compete in the Southern Region Assembly Battle?"

"That's right, but they've certainly made a name for themselves this time."

The various sects were all discussing it, including the disciples of the Earth Sect. Their eyes glanced down at the people of the Great Dream Nine Abyss Sect below, revealing contemptuous sneers and disdain.

Hearing the surrounding discussions, Li Tiemu and Zhou Qingyun's expressions changed. Li Tiemu's cheeks turned red with anger, his eyes almost bulging out of their sockets, and his blood seemed to be burning. He wanted to roar and shout, but he knew that would only invite more ridicule. At this moment, he just clenched his fists tightly, his teeth almost grinding to powder.

"These bastards! They don't know the real situation at all, and they're just spouting nonsense!"

"When the crowd mocks them, they join in the trampling, and they even think they're righteous!"

"Haotian's strength is unmatched in the True Immortal Realm! These people... are a bunch of trash!"

Amidst the crowd, Gu Yan's eyes flashed coldly as he swept his gaze across the other sects, especially those who were mocking him, his icy stare meeting theirs.

Zhou Qingyun and the old woman both looked grim, and his disciples also looked aggrieved and angry as they glared around.

The other elders from Nine Abysses, however, had changing expressions. One of the elders from the Spear Abyss transmitted his voice to Li Tiemu, saying:

"Old Li, did your disciple use Immortal Weapon to climb up there?"

Upon hearing the telepathic message, Li Tiemu's expression changed slightly, and his clenched fist paused for a moment. He wanted to retaliate Anger, but suddenly, the words caught in his throat, and he couldn't utter a sound.

Yeah?

He himself didn't know.

On Emperor Sword Mountain, the young man's performance was unexpected, but the tenth place on the Immortal Stele... he suddenly felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.

No matter how strong True Immortal Realm is, they can never compare to the Immortal Lord Realm; this is almost an ironclad rule.

But occasionally miracles break this ironclad rule; however, is it truly without the aid of any other forces?

He couldn't guarantee it either.

However, he quickly replied telepathically, "Elder Sun, even if Haotian borrowed Immortal Weapon, this Ancient Immortal Realm has no rules or restrictions, so what kind of violation is that!"

The elder who transmitted the message changed his expression slightly, his eyes flickered for a moment, then he nodded and transmitted, "At this moment, we must unite against a common enemy. The Imperial Clan indeed has no such rule requiring us to unite."

Li Tiemu gritted his teeth and said, "That's right. Don't you think other Sect disciples would resort to some underhanded tricks? I don't believe it!"

While they were talking, Murong Qingwu and Yue Xi looked at the Immortal Platform with worried expressions.

On the Immortal Platform, Chu Tianzheng stared coldly at Li Hao, his face displaying an aggressive demeanor, and said:

"Are you going to step down voluntarily, or should I come and ask you to?!"

Li Hao never expected that he would become the target of everyone's attention in an instant, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable, as he disliked being in the limelight.

Before he could speak, Xing Lan, who was standing fifth, suddenly said:

"Prince Tianzheng, there are no restrictions on the use of Immortal Weapon by the Imperial Clan. Is it really necessary for you to make things so humiliating in this situation?"

Chu Tianzheng looked up, glanced at Xing Lan, and when his gaze fell on her exquisitely beautiful face, the coldness in his eyes dissipated considerably. He said indifferently:

"He brought this humiliation upon himself. If he had only ranked in the thirties, no one would have cared, and he could have easily made it up there. But he shouldn't have been so ostentatious; he went too far!"

Xing Lan frowned and said, "As a prince, this is not the kind of magnanimity you should have."

"We are members of the Imperial Clan; it's not up to a Sect disciple like you to point fingers at us."

At this moment, a young member of the Imperial Clan, who was ranked fourth and standing next to Xing Lan, spoke calmly. His gaze toward Xing Lan was disdainful and condescending, showing no emotion despite her stunning beauty. His eyes held only the coldness of power and authority.

Upon hearing this, Xing Lan's expression changed slightly, and a hint of anger appeared in her eyes.

The seventh-ranked Imperial Daughter glanced at Xing Lan indifferently and said:

"That's right, my Imperial Clan has been more than magnanimous; otherwise, we wouldn't have just used words, we would have taken action!"

Xing Lan's expression was somewhat unpleasant, and she was about to speak again when Li Hao spoke first, saying:

"No need to say more."

Upon hearing Li Hao's words, Xing Lan stopped speaking. She looked at the young man, a complex expression in her eyes, tinged with regret and pity.

She felt that the young man had resigned himself to his fate and bowed his head under the majesty of the Imperial Clan, which diminished her admiration and goodwill towards him.

But she also knew that it was a rational choice, the right choice.

As she looked Past with regret, she noticed that the boy had also turned to look at her and then gave her a smile.

The handsome young man's face was radiant with a smile, his lips red and teeth white, like the sunshine of spring in March, making one feel somewhat dazed, as brilliant as the dappled golden light among fallen leaves.

While Xing Lan was slightly stunned, Li Hao had already withdrawn his gaze, taken a step forward, turned around to look at Chu Tianzheng, and said:

"I don't like arguing with people. Aren't you Immortal Lord Realm? Show me your skills. If you can make me move even one step, I'll willingly go down."

His voice came, neither flamboyant nor understated, but clear and calm, resounding on the Immortal Platform and also in the ears of the elders and disciples of the various Immortal Platform below.

Chu Tianzheng was stunned, and Zhang Xuanyu, who was standing next to him, was also stunned, looking at Li Hao with a look of astonishment.

Xing Lan felt as if a stone had suddenly fallen into the lake of her heart, causing her heart to tremble slightly. Her eyes widened as she stared at the young man.

That serene face, those deep and calm eyes, showed no sign of bravado or anger.

A brief silence fell over the Immortal Platform, but Chu Tianzheng quickly regained his senses and couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.

"You're quite capable. It seems your Sect has prepared quite a bit of support for you. Are you challenging me?"

Li Hao's eyes gradually turned cold as he said, "You're the one looking for trouble. I challenged you, but you're not qualified to be my opponent!"
