"What?"

"Do you possess the Water Dao Origin?"

"That's right, I'm going to the Five Dao Origin City."

"I'm going to the Form Control Origin City."

In the mist, the diminutive avatar moved through the fog, seeking out the Heavenly Prodigy of various Immortal Dynasty and peddling the Nine Sequence Origin to them.

Among them, Li Hao had already used his True Form to find the Imperial Clan of various Immortal Dynasty and sell them the Space Origin.

He now only has two copies of the Spacetime Origin left; the rest are other Nine Sequence Origin, which can only be obtained by going to the Five Dao Origin City and the Form Control Origin City.

Although it wasn't the Time-Space Origin City, it was already a precious treasure for the various dynasties' Heavenly Prodigy who had been delayed here for a total of four or five months.

Even if they find these Origin Great Dao on their own, they will be eager to use them and travel to them.

Now that Li Hao's avatar is here to sell and trade with them, it's a great opportunity for them, and they are all willing to offer their immortal Immortal Method and Immortal Stone in exchange for Li Hao.

"What's going on? There seem to be far fewer people on the Heavenly Dao Bridge."

"That's right, people have been leaving one after another. Just now, I used my Wind Eye Vision to see the guiding Dao Light of the Origin City deep within the Heavenly Dao Bridge."

"Why are so many people suddenly leaving? Could it be that they couldn't wait any longer and chose the Chaos Origin City?"

Of the four Origin City, the other Great Dao all lead to the Chaos Origin City, which is also the place with the most people. However, basically, those who come to the Origin Secret Realm to cultivate will not retreat to the Chaos Origin City unless they have no other choice.

However, the Nine Sequence Origin is extremely precious. As soon as it appears, top Heavenly Prodigy fight each other for it. Most people who come from the lower-level Origin Secret Realm can only choose Chaos Origin City. Otherwise, wasting time here would be a loss.

If one can comprehend the Great Dao one cultivates to a very high level in just seven years, it might not be a bad thing.

Even if the Chaos Origin City is inferior, it is still the Origin City. One can go there to study and comprehend the Sword Dao, the Spear Dao, the Evasion Dao, and so on.

As the number of figures on the Heavenly Dao Bridge decreased, Li Hao also received many top-notch Swordsmanship from various dynasties, as well as numerous Immortal Stones, rare treasures, and rare Immortal Pill from his avatar.

In the blink of an eye, months of Angling yielded a bountiful harvest of Cultivation Resources.

Unfortunately, Li Hao had already Angling out Nine Sequence Origin of the Heavenly Dao Bridge, and State of Mind understanding of Angling had reached a bottleneck. He still lacked a stimulus to break through.

If Li Hao continues to hone his skills here, perhaps after another four or five years of Angling, he will be able to gain some insight. However, he plans to go to the Origin City first.

"I'll go check out Origin City too."

Li Hao took out a Fire Dao Origin, as red as Magma, which struggled in his palm, emanating a strong Aura of the Great Dao.

If Warrior is below the level of Sage, they only need to stay by Li Hao's side for a short while to comprehend the true essence of the Fire Dao from the Dao Resonance emanating from this Fire Dao Origin, thereby advancing all the Fire Dao Cultivation Method they cultivate to a higher level.

If one reaches the stage of the Dao Inquiry Realm, one can comprehend the Dao in an instant and touch the threshold of the Dao.

At this moment, as Li Hao activated the Fire Dao Origin, Dao Power immediately descended from above the Heavenly Dao Bridge, connecting with the Fire Dao Origin in Li Hao's hand.

Soon, Li Hao was also enveloped by that power.

Whoosh!

Li Hao did not resist; his body soared away directly along with the pulling force.

The Cloudmist swirled before my eyes, and as they gradually dispersed, a majestic city, entirely crimson, came into view.

The city stood majestically in the Starry Sky. From Li Hao's perspective, it seemed as if he were descending from the Starry Sky, Descent a famous arc as he came down. He could see the entire city from this vantage point. But as he approached, the city quickly expanded infinitely before his eyes. Within it Five Daos beams of light rose into the sky, leading to the unseen depths of the Origin World.

The Five Daos rays of light were gold, emerald green, aquamarine, crimson, and dark brown, respectively.

Only when they got closer could they see that they were five giant trees with dazzling, flowing light.

The leaves on top seem to be woven together, exquisitely beautiful, exuding a Dao Resonance Aura and a refreshing fragrance.

As the power around his body dissipated, Li Hao stood in the city and immediately felt a strange sensation that was almost like an epiphany.

The city is rich in Dao Resonance, which consists of the Five Daos Daoist elements: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, and earth. These Five Daos can form the Three Thousand Great Dao, such Fire Dao, which also includes the Flame Dao and Rock Burst.

Li Hao had a strange feeling. He looked up and saw a bright blue halo closest to him, which was the Water Dao Origin Divine Tree.

The leaves on it trembled like butterflies, carrying strange Water Dao ripples, and the patterns on the tree trunk seemed to be telling the true meaning of the Water Dao Origin, which was very different from the patterns of the crimson Fire Dao Origin Divine Tree.

"Practicing here, sudden enlightenment is probably as commonplace as eating a meal."

Li Hao Dark Dao to himself.

With such a strong Dao Resonance atmosphere, even someone of ordinary talent could hope to cultivate the Dao Realm Origin to the first level here.

Instead of immediately beginning his cultivation, Li Hao went to the city to look around.

This Origin City is extremely vast, yet very empty. There are few buildings in the city, only endless Square, and occasionally you can see something towering like an altar, the purpose of which is unknown.

Here, Li Hao saw some figures who had previously peddled the Nine Sequence Origin, now sitting under the Origin Divine Tree, meditating.

Water Dao Origin Divine Tree, Li Hao spotted a familiar figure dressed in snow. She sat on a tree root rising from the ground, at the closest distance to the Origin Divine Tree. It was none other than Boya Xuejian, who had arrived earlier.

At this moment, Boya Xuejian's eyes were closed, and streams of water surrounded her. The water sometimes turned into ice, sharp and razor-sharp, and sometimes softened back into flowing water, containing Sword Qi.

Li Hao's eyes flickered slightly; it seemed that the other party was combining Sword Dao with Water Dao.

Although he didn't sense it closely, Li Hao felt a chill in his heart; the other party was attempting an extremely powerful cultivation method.

True Realm Heavenly Prodigy, outstanding talents of the Immortal Dynasty, cannot be underestimated.

Li Hao's expression also became more serious. He then glanced at the others and was surprised to find that there were more than ten people here, of whom only four or five were the people he had previously sold the Great Dao Origin to.

The other half, however, were unfamiliar faces, their Aura extremely terrifying, restrained and profound, all at the Immortal Lord Realm.

As Li Hao was observing them, one of them, who seemed to have a shallower understanding, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Li Hao, his eyes flashing with a cold light.

His gaze was like two icy arrows, striking Li Hao and freezing Time and Space and space.

Li Hao exchanged a glance with the other person before turning his gaze away, but inwardly he felt a chill. The other person's cultivation was at least at the Immortal Lord Realm Fifth Layer, giving him an extremely strong sense of pressure.

"There are still people here. They're not the Heavenly Prodigy who participated in the Southern Region Assembly Battle; they're probably people who made great contributions to various Immortal Dynasty, or powerful individuals cultivated within those Immortal Dynasty..."

Li Hao pondered for a moment, glanced around, and then left.

As Li Hao walked away, the man frowned. How did this little fellow at the True Immortal Realm Ninth Layer manage to sneak in?

However, considering the recent Southern Region Assembly Battle, which would bring many Heavenly Prodigy here, he guessed why they had come. He quickly closed his eyes again and continued to meditate.

Li Hao walked through the Origin City. Five Origin Divine Tree stood in the four directions of the Origin City. The Golden Dao Origin Divine Tree stood in the center, but it was the smallest and its light was not as bright as the other four.

When Li Hao arrived at the Fire Dao Origin Divine Tree, he saw Chi Yingzi sitting on the tree root, cultivating.

They're all working so hard.

After looking around, I found it quiet everywhere; no one was speaking, and everyone was diligently meditating and practicing.

Li Hao sighed and came to the edge of the city, wanting to go outside the city to take a look.

The city was deserted and unguarded.

Li Hao took flight and stood atop the city wall, where he saw lush trees outside the city, forming a vast forest.

But those trees were no ordinary trees; they seemed to be the embodiment of a profound Dao Resonance, both real and illusory.

Li Hao was like an observer, looking around in amazement at the beautiful Heaven and Earth Origin City. Crimson flames occasionally swept across the Void like firebirds, and the azure Aura of the Water Dao Origin condensed into a deep whale that swam by. He could almost hear the whale's cry from the depths of the Nine Netherworld.

"Such a magnificent city, is this the work of Immortal Emperor...?"

Li Hao stood atop the city wall, muttering to himself.

At that moment, as if sunlight were reflecting off his face, a golden light flashed in his eyes.

He turned his head and looked out at the lush, green forest outside the city, where a golden light occasionally shone.

Li Hao was somewhat surprised and followed the golden light.

As they got closer, they saw that it was a tree that was entirely golden, and its appearance was somewhat similar to the Golden Dao Origin Divine Tree in the city.

However, it was much smaller in size and did not exude Dao Resonance Aura.

Li Hao looked around and saw a thatched Thatched Hut next to the golden tree, with Stream beside Thatched Hut, where a figure was sitting Angling.

"Young man, why come to this remote place instead of seeking enlightenment in the city?"

As Li Hao approached, a calm, aged voice came from the figure.

Your fishing method is incorrect.

Li Hao glanced at the Fishing Rod he was holding and couldn't help but say something.

"Um?"

The figure was clearly surprised; this answer was unexpected. However, he didn't seem to mind and simply said, "It was just for fun."

After saying that, he lifted the pole and turned to look at Li Hao.

It was an aged yet peaceful face, with golden eyebrows that drooped down on either side of the cheeks, giving it a kind and benevolent appearance.

Li Hao glanced at the Stream and couldn't help but Dark Dao a pang of regret; if he had just held on a little longer, he would have been hooked.

"You know Angling too?" The old man looked at Li Hao with great interest. Everyone who came here was trying to make the most of their time to study in the Origin City. They wouldn't waste time exploring everywhere. Even if they did, they would just glance at it and rush back to the city. Unlike the young man in front of him, who stood there in a daze.

"Um."

Li Hao nodded, observing the other person's Angling technique, which was clearly very rusty, probably only at the sixth or seventh level.

He secretly shook his head, not wanting to discuss Angling with the other person. After all, the gap between them was too large; if they really talked, it would only be considered teaching, which would inevitably be showing off.

Angling is all about enjoyment; if you take it too seriously, you lose that enjoyment. Sometimes, even if you want to teach, you have to see if the other person is willing to learn.

"Senior, I see no one in this city. You're not here to cultivate and seek enlightenment, are you? You wouldn't happen to be the city lord, would you?"

Li Hao bowed slightly and asked curiously.

"City Lord?"

Upon hearing this, the old man couldn't help but laugh heartily, saying, "Origin City doesn't have a city lord. It was built by the Five Absolutes Immortal Emperor, who left their disciples here to guard it. However, during the Emperor Fall Battle Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Catastrophe, there wasn't enough manpower, and they were all transferred Past. Since then, Origin City has been an empty city."

Li Hao's eyes flickered as he once again sensed the impact and changes of that battle from Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Catastrophe on the present day.

Ten thousand years is a long time, but it doesn't seem so far away. The devastation and glory of the past can still be seen in the present.

"And who is that senior?"

"Just a nobody here."

The old man spoke calmly, seemingly unwilling to reveal too much about himself. He glanced at Li Hao and asked, "Why aren't you meditating in the city? What are you doing here?"

"There's no rush in comprehending cultivation; a little time won't make a difference," Li Hao said.

"You're quite the slowpoke."

The old man raised an eyebrow, glanced at Li Hao, and said, "The Movement Method you used to fly here just now showed traces of the Source of Space Dao. Why didn't you go to the Time-Space Origin City? Why did you come here?"

Li Hao was somewhat surprised. He had unconsciously incorporated some of the Source of Space Dao's power into his Movement Method, but he hadn't expected that even such a subtle technique would be detected by his opponent.

"Senior, aren't you going to study and comprehend it?"

"Me? To comprehend?"

Upon hearing Li Hao's words, the old man couldn't help but chuckle, but said, "I'm just like you, it won't make a difference if I wait a little longer."

Li Hao was somewhat speechless, but his gaze swept to the side. Suddenly, his eyes fell on the base of the golden tree, and his eyes brightened.

"Excellent natural carving material!"

Li Hao's eyes lit up. The base of this golden tree had incredibly intricate Dao Patterns. If it could be used for Sculpting, the result would be unimaginably exquisite.

Such carving material is comparable to the earth dragon in the eyes of Angler, and the white silk in the eyes of a nerdy guy.

He walked Past, stood before the golden tree, and stroked a protruding root, as if he couldn't bear to part with it.

"Um."

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly upon seeing Li Hao's actions, but remained silent.

"Senior, did you plant this tree?"

Li Hao turned his head and asked.

The old man nodded. "What?"

"Um... can I cut off a section of its root? I can use my Immortal Power to nourish it and help it recover," Li Hao said hurriedly.

The old man's eyes flickered, and he said calmly, "It's just a tree. What's the point of cutting off its roots?"

"I have some knowledge of Sculpting and would like to borrow it," Li Hao said.

The old man's expression changed slightly, but he quickly recovered and said, "It's nothing, just take a section."

"Thank you so much, senior!"

Li Hao was overjoyed and quickly expressed his gratitude.

He then took out the Taowu and cut off a section of the golden tree's root.

"This smells like the Origin Divine Tree!"

The spirit of the Taowu soldier exclaimed in Li Hao's mind.

Li Hao exclaimed in surprise, "You must be mistaken, the Origin Divine Tree?"

"But it doesn't seem like it. I guess I'm seeing things." The Taowu's spirit was also uncertain, muttering to itself, "If it were the Origin Divine Tree, it should emanate the Great Dao Origin, but this tree doesn't. Strange."

Li Hao had already taken the severed tree root to the Thatched Hut. He found a spot and sat down on the ground.

Then, he brought his fingers together, gathered his Sword Qi, and examined the section of tree root, finding it Perfection.

The old man watched the boy's actions quietly, a glint of light in his eyes, lost in thought.

Just as Li Hao was about to make a move, a radiant light suddenly emanated from the city, and the Five Dao Source Divine Tree connected to this radiant light shone brightly, releasing a surge of powerful Dao Resonance and Spiritual Qi.

Li Hao couldn't help but look over, somewhat surprised and doubtful.

What is that?

"The Spiritual Burst of the Origin Divine Tree."

The old man glanced at it and calmly said, "Once a year is nothing special. During this Spiritual Burst, if Dao Realm Comprehension is deep enough, one can gain the approval of the Origin Divine Tree and cultivate on Divine Tree."

Cultivating on the Divine Tree?

Li Hao was stunned, then realized that among the five Origin Divine Tree he had seen earlier, some people cultivated at the roots of the trees, while others cultivated outside the trees.

The Dao Resonance of that Origin Divine Tree was so rich... Right, why doesn't anyone cultivate on that tree? Li Hao suddenly realized.

"If you wish to go, you can take this opportunity to demonstrate your Dao Realm Comprehension before the Origin Divine Tree. Perhaps you can gain the Divine Tree's approval and cultivate on its trunk."

The old man said calmly.

"What level of cultivation does one need to reach to have this opportunity?"

Li Hao, recalling that Boya Xuejian also only sat on the tree roots, couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Only those with three or more points have a chance, and it also depends on the performance of others in the same period."

The old man said.
