Slaughter in the Secret Realm

As the double-digit Soul Lifespan appeared, the previously whispered discussions suddenly fell into a brief silence.

Before the True Immortal Secret Realm, Gu Yan, Yue Xi, Lin Mingrong, and other disciples of Sword Abyss were waiting for Li Hao's arrival. However, when they saw the Soul Lifespan on the Ancient Mirror, their slightly curious eyes widened, and they then fell into a daze and blankness.

96?

His Soul Lifespan is less than one hundred years!!

With a sudden uproar, the silence of the scene turned into an uproar, and all the Immortal Dynasty Sect looked at the young man, their eyes filled with shock.

If it's in the triple digits, they're already incredibly Prodigy Heavenly Prodigy. Gu Yan and the other few who Soul Lifespan Past several hundred years are among the youngest in this group.

But unexpectedly, a guy with a two-digit number has suddenly appeared.

A mere century—that's the Soul Lifespan.

This means that even if one reincarnates, one cannot reincarnate many times. After all, Soul Lifespan is fixed. With a hundred years added together, one can actually cultivate to the True Immortal Realm Perfection and become a leader among those in the same realm, thus being able to participate in the Southern Region Assembly Battle!

"Soul Lifespan of less than a hundred years? I can't believe my eyes, that's outrageous!"

"What Bloodline does that boy have? Could he be from the Emperor Clan?!"

"Heavens! I only just Dao Hearing in my hundred-year Soul Lifespan!"

"Who is that young man's Master? Which Sect does he belong to? This is insane!"

The disciples of various Immortal Dynasty and Sect were all shocked. Even the arrogant and disdainful Immortal Lord Realm contestants who had been standing nearby turned their heads and their expressions changed.

They asked themselves, at this age of Soul Lifespan, that they weren't even at the True Immortal Realm Tenth Layer!

Moreover, being able to participate in the battle in the Southern Region means not only that one's cultivation level has improved, but also that one's foundation is solid and one is ahead of others in the same realm!

If it were simply a matter of accumulating cultivation levels, with the resources of some top Sect and the help of certain special and powerful Bloodline, it might not be impossible.

However, relying on external forces to elevate one's realm not only damages one's foundation but also results in unstable combat power, placing one at the bottom among those in the same realm, and even making one easily defeated by Heavenly Prodigy in adversity.

The fact that this young man was able to come to the Southern Region to participate in the battle is enough to prove that his combat strength is definitely at the peak of the True Immortal Realm Perfection!

"Junior Brother Haotian, he..."

Yue Xi and Murong Qingwu were both stunned, their faces blank.

Although they had heard Old Man Li say that Li Hao's Soul Lifespan was extremely young, they hadn't taken it seriously. Now they realized that it wasn't just young, it was practically pink and tender to an exaggerated degree!

Considering the long lifespan of Immortal Deity in the True Realm, this person isn't even considered a child!

"..."

Beside him, Gu Yan's pupils contracted slightly, his fingers clenched tightly, and he fell silent.

At this moment, another piece of his inner pride quietly shattered, leaving him feeling somewhat empty.

"He?"

On the ground, Chu Yueli, standing behind Chu Tianhuang, was also observing Li Hao's situation, her expression somewhat dazed.

His Soul Lifespan was barely a hundred years, yet he managed to defeat Chu Tianzheng?!

People from other Immortal Dynasty may not know Li Hao, but the people of the Yan Chu Immortal Dynasty are clear that this young man's cultivation level was not forcibly improved by external forces; his foundation is frighteningly solid!

But how could his Soul Lifespan be a mere hundred years?!

She inherited her mother's Star Bloodline and her father's Emperor Blood, possessing Heavenly Talent. It has taken her a thousand years of Soul Lifespan to reach this level.

"He is still the Nine Flowers Immortal Seal..."

Chu Yueli was somewhat lost in thought when suddenly, a thought popped into her mind.

Perhaps, Father's decision was correct.

After all, the Emperor's judgment has never been wrong. He values this young man so much that he even went so far as to betroth himself to him. He must have seen through the young man's Soul Lifespan and Heavenly Talent long ago!

Thinking about all this, she suddenly realized something.

Her father had seen this boy before, and her father was such a powerful being that he could see through the boy's Soul Lifespan at a glance without needing this ancient realm.

No wonder... Her eyes became complicated. As Imperial Clan, she understood how terrifying this Heavenly Talent was. Was she really going to marry him?

However, this might affect one's spiritual practice.

However, if this young man's potential is valued by his father, he may become the Grand Prince Consort in the Yan Chu Immortal Dynasty in the future... With the Yan Chu royal family and his father's attention and cultivation, as long as he doesn't do something reckless, he will definitely be able to surpass many of his brothers, and even catch up with those few extremely talented individuals, including Chu Tianhuang in front of him!

Thinking about all this, her heart began to pound.

For the first time, she felt that the boy's face was no longer repulsive.

While Chu Yueli was lost in thought, Chu Tianhuang and the others in front of her also had a slight change in expression, including Chu Tianzheng, who had been defeated by Li Hao earlier, whose face was now even more unsightly.

Such Prodigy talent, he fears he'll never catch up in this lifetime!

"Who is this guy?"

A member of the Imperial Clan looked grave and murmured to Whispers.

No one answered. From his appearance alone, they could only tell that Li Hao was Human Race, but they couldn't tell which branch of the Human Race he belonged to.

Li Hao does not possess any characteristics of the Hundred Clans, unless he deliberately conceals them.

However, it is meaningless to come to the Southern Region Assembly Battle to make a name for oneself and conceal one's race, unless one's Lineage is guilty or has many enemies.

"Interesting."

Boya Xuejian, dressed in white, narrowed his eyes slightly. If he had previously found the young man special and quite interesting, this was the first time he had examined him with a serious gaze, regarding him as an extremely strong opponent.

Although his current combat strength is not yet enough to fight him, with such Heavenly Talent, it will probably only take him a few decades to catch up with him.

At that time, we will surely be able to have a fair fight!

Thinking about this, he felt a mix of anticipation and pressure.

Apart from Boya Xuejian, all the other Immortal Lord Realm also gazed at Li Hao, making the young man a part of their hearts.

A hundred years of Soul Lifespan is too immature. I wonder how the opponent will perform in the True Immortal Secret Realm.

"Senior brother, he actually..."

Beside the Dream Master, Meng Huaiyue was somewhat dazed, her eyes filled with shock.

Yin Jingcheng, standing beside her, nearly had his eyes pop out of his head as he stared in disbelief at the boy's retreating figure.

After a long moment of stunned silence, he suddenly turned to look at his Master. At that moment, he suddenly realized why his Master favored this young man so much.

The Dream Master sensed the reaction from the scene, and a slight smile appeared on her lips. She had long anticipated that as long as that young man appeared, even before he participated in the battle, it would be enough for people to know that he had made a name for himself in the Southern Region!

At this moment, among all the participants, Li Hao has left the deepest impression on everyone.

The God Clan Youth who had been the first to arrive at the True Immortal Secret Realm narrowed his eyes and stared intently at Li Hao.

Besides him, there were seven or eight other figures, all staring sharply at Li Hao.

At this moment, their brilliance was completely overshadowed by this young man.

However, they truly cannot achieve Soul Lifespan of two digits. After all, time cannot be reversed, and even reincarnation cannot erase Soul Lifespan. The only place where they can truly shine is in actual combat.

At this moment, Li Hao flew to Gu Yan and the others.

Li Hao had never calculated his own Soul Lifespan, but upon seeing the number, he was slightly surprised but quickly came to terms with it.

His 96 years of Soul Lifespan clearly also include his previous life.

Those mediocre decades.

"Junior Brother Haotian, you... you're actually so young?"

At this moment, Murong Qingwu came to her senses and couldn't help but gasp for breath.

Li Hao smiled and said, "A man is a boy until he dies."

Murong Qingwu was speechless. That wasn't what she meant at all. But seeing that Li Hao had changed the subject, she didn't say anything more. She was secretly amazed and shocked, feeling as if a legend was standing in front of her.

Yue Xi and Gu Yan beside him seemed glued to Li Hao's face, unable to look away, yet they remained silent.

The other disciples of Sword Abyss, as well as disciples from other Nine Abysses, remained silent, unable to utter a word.

No one expected that, as the leading figure in the True Immortal Realm of the Sect, his Soul Lifespan would be the shortest.

"Could you be the reincarnation of the Emperor Clan, the head of Hundred Clans?"

After a long silence, Yue Xi looked at Li Hao with a complicated expression and asked.

"Emperor Clan?"

Li Hao shook his head and said, "I am just Human Race."

The Yue Xi was silent. The Human Race Bloodline was mediocre, but the boy before her was anything but mediocre; he was like a myth.

Above the ancient realm, the Immortal Guard Commander glanced at Li Hao, a glint in his eyes, making a mental note of the young man.

At this moment, the disciples of the other Immortal Dynasty also came to their senses and gathered in front of the True Immortal Secret Realm one after another. However, most of the people who came here looked at Li Hao, and in an instant, Li Hao became the focus of the entire scene.

As more and more disciples arrived at the Secret Realm, and the last group of disciples also arrived, people were disappointed to find that no one with Soul Lifespan of more than 100 years was seen. Apart from Li Hao, the one with the shortest Soul Lifespan 178 years!

He is twice the age of Li Hao.

If we disregard Li Hao's exaggerated Soul Lifespan, then the young man is the most eye-catching presence in the entire arena. Although his Soul Lifespan is the shortest, he is still at the True Immortal Realm Perfection, and his Aura is profound, radiating an overbearing pressure.

The young man looked at Li Hao, his eyes revealing undisguised fighting spirit and cold light. His Master knew about his Soul Lifespan and had praised him countless times, saying that he would become famous in the Southern Region. His Soul Lifespan alone would shock countless people. But now, that glory had been stolen by someone else.

Li Hao's gaze was indifferent. He could feel the hostile gazes around him, but he knew it was unavoidable and didn't care.

When soldiers come, generals will meet them head-on. If one hides and cowers in fear, it would not be in accordance with his Dao Heart.

Let everything take its natural course; Non-Contention, yet do not fear!

"The True Immortal Secret Realm is now open. Open your Heaven and Earth Space, and I will transfer all your Immortal Weapon and Armor, and other possessions into your Heaven and Earth Space."

"Once you reach the True Immortal Secret Realm, where the Heaven and Earth Space is sealed off, you will be unable to open it and will have to rely on yourselves."

The Immortal Guard Commander gave the order in a loud voice.

Upon hearing this, everyone opened up their Heaven and Earth Space.

Subsequently, their Immortal Armor, robes, and other items were stripped off and sent into the Heaven and Earth Space.

Fortunately, they had been informed beforehand and were prepared, having changed into non-threatening decorative clothing.

At this moment, a strong suction force suddenly emanated from the True Immortal Secret Realm, enveloping Li Hao and the others.

No one resisted. They exchanged glances with their fellow clansmen or acquaintances before entering the True Immortal Secret Realm.

Be careful.

Li Hao sent a telepathic message to Yue Xi, Gu Yan, and the others, offering their advice.

The group nodded in agreement and then entered the True Immortal Secret Realm together.

The Secret Realm was pitch black, like Chaos space; one could not sense direction or other people.

A moment later, Li Hao felt a sudden light shining on him, and his body plummeted downwards. After a long time, the scene before him was a dark red sky, like mottled blood clots, with gray-black mountain peaks and ravines stretching across the ground, and a vast forest of giant trees.

The air was filled with a strong, malevolent odor, like a fishy stench, making one want to vomit.

Li Hao narrowed his eyes slightly. This familiar scent was immediately recognizable; there were a great many Ancient Demon here, and this was the scent of Ancient Demon!

Thinking of the Ancient Demon, he suddenly thought of the Ancient Demon girl Mi Xueyao. Strangely, she didn't have that kind of evil intent or foul smell.

It's probably because his cultivation level is high and he's deliberately hiding it... Li Hao shook his head, withdrew his thoughts, licked his lips slightly, and then stopped concealing himself, releasing his Aura as bait to Angling the Ancient Demon!

Meanwhile, in other parts of the True Immortal Secret Realm, figures appeared out of thin air.

They all quickly surveyed their surroundings, and some, within the range of their Divine Sense, noticed the other contestants, their eyes immediately becoming wary.

Some had barely appeared when they saw two Ancient Demon crawling beside them. Both sides were stunned for a moment, and then a fierce battle immediately broke out.

Meanwhile, the scenes within the True Immortal Secret Realm were also reflected in the Heavenly Realms Starry Sky through some kind of Emperor Dao Law Power.

"Look! Those are Imperial Clan of my Jiang Rong Immortal Dynasty!"

"Wow, that's amazing! That young man from the Ancient God Clan just appeared and easily smashed an Ancient Demon into a pulp with a wave of his hand!"

"Such ruthless power!"

"The Ancient Demon Clan is ferocious and terrifying. It's impossible to suppress or kill them without three to five people of the same realm joining forces. These Heavenly Prodigy are all capable of killing Ancient Demon of the same realm head-on!"

"I never imagined that even though they were at the same cultivation level, the difference in their abilities would be so vast! Look, that person just flicked a sleeve and sliced that Ancient Demon in two!"

"What kind of Immortal Arts is that? I didn't see any trace of Immortal Arts!"

"This is a rare opportunity for enlightenment. You must watch carefully; they are not using Immortal Arts, but the power of the Great Dao Origin!"

"Once you comprehend the Great Dao Origin to the third level, or even higher, you will be able to do it too."

"You've reached the third level of the True Immortal Realm? Senior Brother, you've already reached the second level of Whip Dao, which is truly astounding!"

Throughout the Southern Region, exclamations of surprise rang out as people gazed at the various battlegrounds within the True Immortal Secret Realm.

While some are still searching for the Ancient Demon, in other places a great war has already broken out.

They had assumed that stripping these Heavenly Prodigy of their Immortal Weapon, Immortal Pill, and other external aids would leave them helpless and vulnerable in the face of the Ancient Demon, leading to extremely dangerous situations. However, the actual situation greatly shocked them.

Many Ancient Demon were easily killed by the Heavenly Prodigy, some of whom even killed Ancient Demon with a casual strike, seemingly indicating they were not on the same level.

"Look! That youngest Soul Lifespan boy is still searching for the Ancient Demon!"

"He's really lucky; he hasn't even encountered them yet, while everyone else is already fighting the Ancient Demon!"

Within the True Immortal Secret Realm, Li Hao released his Aura and wandered around, feeling puzzled. He hadn't asked how many Ancient Demons had been planted in the True Immortal Secret Realm, and he hadn't found any even after being there for a while.

As he searched, he tried to open up the Heaven and Earth Space, only to find that it was indeed imprisoned and sealed by some kind of force.

The Taowu Immortal Weapon are sealed within the Heaven and Earth Space and cannot be used.

Fortunately, he didn't need to rely on external forces to deal with Ancient Demon in the True Immortal Realm.

"Um?"

After a moment, Li Hao finally noticed that the heavy smell around him had become stronger, and his eyes lit up.

The next moment, Five Daos dark figures rushed towards him like five Dark Clouds; they were none other than the enormous Ancient Demon.

Upon seeing Li Hao, the five Ancient Demon revealed a ferocious look in their eyes and immediately joined forces to attack Li Hao.

"If you've chosen my race as your trial, then let us devour your so-called Heavenly Prodigy before we die!"

One of the Ancient Demon growled and sneered, its mouth full of sharp teeth. It unleashed a Demon Sound that reverberated, containing the impact of the Primordial Spirit, aiming to directly stun Li Hao 'Li Hao Primordial Spirit, affect his thinking and judgment, and then obliterate him.

If the Primordial Spirit faints, consciousness will also fall into a brief blank, which is equivalent to being completely defenseless.

But when the Demon Sound struck Li Hao, it was like Qing Feng brushing across a mountain, leaving no trace.

To Li Hao's Primordial Spirit, the Primordial Spirit this Ancient Demon from the True Immortal Realm was like a mayfly trying to shake a tree, having no effect on him whatsoever.

Li Hao licked his lips, grinned slightly, and a wisp of Silver Light condensed between his fingers, transforming into an extremely short silver Sword Qi that shot out like an embroidery needle.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A flash of Silver Light streaked across the sky, and in a mere instant, the figures of the five Ancient Demon froze instantly.
