A Challenge to All, Sole Self, One Sword

Hearing Li Hao's words, Su Wanqing was stunned. She turned her head and saw the serious face and eyes of the boy beside her. Her heart trembled slightly, and she smiled:

"Help me pick it? This Immortal Charm Purple Osmanthus requires more than just being invincible within the same realm; picking it is also Dao Gate. Being invincible within the same realm only grants the qualification to pick it."

Li Hao didn't speak, but turned his gaze to Su Muqing.

Upon hearing Li Hao's words, Su Muqing's eyes twitched slightly, her gaze turning sinister as she sneered:

He has no skills, but he's good at talking big.

Su Qiyu and the others nearby also looked at Li Hao, their brows furrowing slightly. Having failed to please Su Muqing earlier, were they now resorting to pleasing Su Wanqing instead?

"Sister Wanqing."

Su Wanxue frowned and shook her head slightly at Su Wanqing, indicating that she should not pay any more attention to Li Hao.

A complex emotion flashed in Su Wanqing's eyes. Although she knew Li Hao was just trying to make her happy, the boy's eyes were so sincere that she couldn't help but believe him for some reason.

Beside him, Li Hao had already gotten up from the Meditation Cushion.

He glanced at Su Muqing and thought to himself, "I'll be back soon."

Su Wanqing, who was by his side, had been seeking his guidance in Painting Dao these past few days, which had also given him many opportunities to see Su Muqing. He felt it was necessary to repay her.

He lifted his foot, stepped over the Meditation Cushion, and walked past the Su Clan members around him.

His actions did not display any power, but the Jiang Family and Lin Clan around him all noticed Li Hao's movements.

Jiang Huanhuan and the rest of the Lin Clan turned to look, and were surprised to see Li Hao setting off to fight.

Jiang Huanhuan's eyes lit up with surprise. After seeing Li Hao's Painting Dao and hearing Su Muqing say that Li Hao was a hundred-year-old Soul Lifespan, she had become extremely curious about Li Hao. She felt that this young man had a mysterious background. She had sent people to investigate over the past few years, but she could not find out any information about Li Hao.

Given the Jiang Family's status and influence in the Northern Region, this is truly incredible.

This young man seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, Descent upon the Northern Region from elsewhere.

"Is that guy who's pursuing Su Muqing also going to join the fray?"

"The First Level of Immortal Lord Realm... that's a rather low level!"

"His cultivation level is low, but I heard his Soul Lifespan is only a hundred years, which is quite exaggerated."

"A hundred years? How is that possible? Even the Lin Clan's ancestor didn't reach the Immortal Lord Realm a hundred years ago, right?"

"It's really hard to say, but think about it carefully. If you don't have some ability, how could you have the courage to pursue a True Phoenix like Su Muqing, especially under the current circumstances?"

"That's true, let's see how he performs."

The gazes of the Heavenly Prodigy from various Aristocratic Clan all focused on Li Hao, their eyes filled with curiosity.

They did not simply belittle and belittle Li Hao; after all, they were all geniuses from prestigious Aristocratic Clan, and besides cultivation, they were also insightful and intelligent, capable of deducing things.

On the Battle Stage, Lin Jinrou saw Li Hao preparing for the battle below the stage, and her eyes showed surprise. Then she smiled gently and said:

"Haotian the Painter, do you want to go on stage? Then you can go first. It's good that I'm battling with Sister Wanqing; it's making me a bit tired."

Her words were a way of giving the Su Clan some face. As for being tired, she had the All Heavens Star Meridian and could recover in the blink of an eye.

Prodigy of her caliber has already reached the Terminal Realm of the first two realms, making her the most outstanding figure among the younger generation of the Lin Clan, apart from that Emperor Son.

Seeing her say that, Li Hao didn't refuse; he also wanted to return as soon as possible.

"Good."

Li Hao nodded.

Lin Jinrou stepped off the stage. As she passed Li Hao, she winked at Li Hao and said, "Haotian the Painter, after the competition, I'll visit the Su Clan. Don't refuse me, okay?"

Li Hao sighed helplessly and nodded in response.

In any case, he himself would not leave that Immortal's Abode Courtyard.

Once Lin Jinrou vacated the Battle Stage, Li Hao took a step forward and instantly teleported onto the Battle Stage.

"Hmm? That young man's Immortal Power is so strong, unlike someone at the First Level of Immortal Lord Realm. That Immortal Body..."

High in the sky, the Immortal King Tan's eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of surprise appearing on his face.

Besides the Jiang, Su, and Lin families, are there other extraordinary Prodigy suddenly emerging in the Northern Region?

At this moment, Li Hao stood still on the stage. He glanced around and then his gaze fell on Su Muqing. His tone was very calm:

"I am Haotian, First Level of Immortal Lord Realm, and I challenge all those present who are of the same realm."

His words were extremely calm, yet they resonated throughout the entire hall. It was an unremarkable opening, but he added at the end:

"If the rules allow, I hope everyone can come up on stage together and finish as soon as possible."

As soon as these words were spoken, the previously whispering discussion fell into a brief silence.

Immediately afterwards, a commotion and clamor erupted as the Heavenly Prodigy of various Aristocratic Clan stared at the young man in astonishment, their faces flashing with Anger and coldness.

"What does this mean? Are you telling us to attack together?"

"How arrogant! Where did this guy come from? He's only at the First Level of Immortal Lord Realm and he's already this arrogant!"

"If the Heavenly Prodigy of the Three Great Families said that, I would just swallow my pride and bear it. Who does he think he is?"

"Is she trying to impress Su Muqing? How the hell can I tolerate this?!"

The Heavenly Prodigy from all the Aristocratic Clan were enraged; Li Hao's words had incited their fury.

Su Muqing was the goddess in the hearts of many Heavenly Prodigy Aristocratic Clan and the object of their admiration. However, due to the presence of the True Dragon of the Lin Clan, no one dared to express their feelings. They could only admire her from afar and dared not profane her.

But this guy, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, was actually using them to show off to Su Muqing in public, which was a bit unbearable!

"Zi Feng, go teach this guy a lesson for me!"

"Bai Jing, go up there and satisfy him. Don't leave the stage until you've shattered his Primordial Spirit!"

"Outrageous! Do you think our Gusu Emperor Star has no one to rely on?!"

Even if Immortal King Tan forbids it, we will still teach him a lesson today!

Below the stage, the world's most Heavenly Prodigy became restless, and soon some rushed onto the Battle Stage, fearing that someone else would snatch the spot from them.

They were eager to try and defeat Li Hao when he took the field, hoping to subtly curry favor with Su Muqing. Although they couldn't openly express their feelings to Su Muqing, they were still willing to show their affection whenever they had the chance.

And what happened was unexpected; this guy actually went looking for his own death!

"He..."

Lin Jinrou had just returned to the Meditation Cushion when she heard Li Hao's words, and she was stunned.

Jiang Huanhuan was also stunned, never expecting that the seemingly gentle and quiet boy would utter such arrogant words.

Gazing at the figure standing on the Battle Stage, she vaguely sensed that he seemed somewhat different from his previous tranquil demeanor. There was an invisible aura emanating from the young man, a feeling she had only ever experienced from top Heavenly Prodigy, especially the Lin family's Emperor Son of the Lin Clan!

"That guy!"

Su Wanxue's expression changed slightly, and her brows furrowed. If Li Hao lost, not only would he lose face, but he would also lose face for Su Muqing, and the Su Clan would be ridiculed as a result.

After all, it's inevitable that people will gossip about someone who's pursuing the Su Clan's True Phoenix, given that they're actually such a scoundrel.

Su Wanqing's eyes were full of worry. She sat on the Meditation Cushion, her fingers clenched tightly in her bosom, twisting her fairy dress.

"Damn it!"

Su Muqing gritted her teeth and glared Anger at Li Hao. She had wanted to see Li Hao lose before, but now, if Li Hao really lost, his arrogance would inevitably drag her down and make her the laughingstock behind her back!

Whoosh whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, figures flew onto the stage, and in an instant, there were more than a dozen people.

The other Aristocratic Clan Heavenly Prodigy also rushed out quickly, teleporting onto the Battle Stage, and in the blink of an eye, there were almost thirty people.

Immortal King Tan's expression changed slightly. He quickly raised his hand and Sealing Array Barrier to prevent anyone else from entering.

Otherwise, judging from the current situation, all the hundred or so Heavenly Prodigy from various Aristocratic Clan at the First Level of Immortal Lord Realm would probably be vying to beat up this kid.

"What an arrogant fellow! These are all Heavenly Prodigy from prestigious Aristocratic Clan, not ordinary First Level of Immortal Lord Realm from outside. Each person here can defeat hundreds or even thousands of ordinary people at the same level. He's courting death!"

A young attendant at the Immortal Lord Realm beside Immortal King Tan whispered.

The other person nodded slightly, a sigh also in his eyes. This person didn't have the background of the Three Great Families, yet he was even more arrogant than them!

"The number of people is a bit too many."

Immortal King Tan frowned. He could vaguely sense the powerful aura emanating from the young man's body, which was no ordinary Heavenly Prodigy. However, if he sought fairness, defeating twenty people of the same realm would already make him invincible. Otherwise, if he truly wanted to achieve invincibility, the challenge would be endless.

"Gentlemen, there are more than fourteen people. Please select fourteen people to withdraw."

Immortal King Tan spoke, his voice resonating throughout the entire arena.

There are already 34 people on the Battle Stage.

Upon hearing this, the people on the Battle Stage immediately became restless and looked at each other in bewilderment.

"I'm not going down there, I'm going to beat this kid to death!"

"I'm not quitting anyway!"

Everyone expressed their willingness to withdraw, while the Heavenly Prodigy from various Aristocratic Clan outside the Battle Stage were still slapping their thighs in regret, lamenting that they had gone up too late.

"How about we settle this with a fight? Whoever makes it into the Top Twenty gets to beat him up!"

Someone suggested it.

People responded quickly.

Hearing their noisy argument, Li Hao frowned slightly, looked up at the Immortal King Tan in the sky, and said:

"Senior, this junior has no objections. Please allow us to begin immediately."

Immortal King Tan was slightly taken aback.

Li Hao's words struck the crowd like a bombshell, causing an uproar once again!

"My God, has he gone mad? This is outrageous!"

"This is... this is downright suicidal!"

The 34 people on the stage were all furious, their eyes filled with murderous intent as they stared at Li Hao. Was he treating them like dirt?!

Immortal King Tan, regaining his senses, frowned slightly upon seeing Li Hao's sincere gesture of bowing, and waved his hand, saying:

"Since you proposed it yourself, then... I agree!"

As soon as he uttered the word "allow," he waved his hand, Void suddenly trembled with thunder. A bolt of purple lightning tore through the sky, signaling the start of the battle!

"You little brat, you're asking for it!"

"I'm going to smash him to pieces, even his Primordial Spirit!"

The Heavenly Prodigy from various Aristocratic Clan all displayed their auras, their Immortal Power surging, fearing that if they were too late, they wouldn't even be able to touch Li Hao's corpse.

As the Immortal Power surged on the Battle Stage, the Heavenly Prodigy of various Aristocratic Clan revealed their own Immortal Dao Laws, Immortal Seals, and some even unleashed their Heaven and Earth Dharma Form, all in an effort to kill Li Hao first.

Most of their Immortal Seal are Eight Flowers Immortal Seal, and a third of them are Nine Flowers Immortal Seal. Although they are not Nine Sequences Nine Flowers seals, they can still be considered first- Heavenly Prodigy geniuses.

In an instant, dozens of Sword Qi crisscrossed the Battle Stage, their terrifying power causing the Heaven and Earth to change color.

At this moment, Li Hao also raised his palm, and the Immortal Power, like flowing nectar, gathered along his arm to his fingertips, and then seeped out from his fingertips, condensing into an Immortal Sword.

This Immortal Sword contains the power of the Nine Sequence Origin. Its light flows, and even the Void ripples slightly, showing cracks.

"Um?"

Immortal King Tan stared intently. That was the Nine Sequence Origin? And the realms of those beings were all quite high!

That young man... Nine Flowers Nine Sequences Immortal Seal!

He was shocked. He knew that only the Four Little Phoenixes of the Su Clan could condense Immortal Seal of this level. Lin Jinrou and Jiang Huanhuan, the top Heavenly Prodigy of their respective families, were also at this level and had the qualifications to become disciples of the Emperor Lord. Moreover, they were his Personal Disciple!

"My Sole Self Sword, Azure Sky!"

As a dense surge of Immortal Power continuously emanated from his body, Li Hao's hair flew wildly, and his gaze gradually sharpened from calm to sharp, like two cold, gleaming Sword Light.

His simple robe billowed without wind, and his immortal Immortal Power surged rapidly, as if a majestic mountain had suddenly emerged from a previously tranquil Lake. In an instant, a magnificent illusory image of Heaven and Earth Dharma Form appeared behind Li Hao.

The Dharma Form was enveloped in golden divine light, its eyes slightly closed, and an invisible Sword Qi condensed in its hand.

The Sword Qi contained the power of the Nine Sequence Origin. As it flowed, metal, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, fire, earth, Time and Space all revolved around it, as if Myriad Daos in the world had submitted to this sword!

"What?"

Below the stage, the Su Clan, the Lin Clan, the Jiang Family, and the Heavenly Prodigy of various Aristocratic Clan were all taken aback.

On the Battle Stage, the sharp, cold light in Li Hao's eyes suddenly intensified. As he turned his wrist, his sword rose, and the sky above the entire Battle Stage seemed to split apart, fearing the power of his sword.

Break!!

As the Sword Light slashed down, wind, fire, Thunder and Lightning burst forth from the Void, as if squeezed out by some powerful pressure. Electricity was generated in the Void, and wind and fire arose spontaneously!

The terrifying sword power was unleashed at this moment, surging instantly and sweeping out fiercely.

The crowd that had gathered towards Li Hao, whose originally powerful and imposing aura was instantly obscured and suppressed by Li Hao's sword strike, was like fireflies and the Bright Moon!

Compared to the other two, they seem like ants on a collapsing building, giving off a sense of insignificance!

"What kind of Sword Momentum is this?!"

"Impossible! How could his Immortal Power be so concentrated? This is impossible!"

"I..."

Everyone was shocked and terrified. They swung their proud Sword Dao, but before they could even touch the Sword-Ray unleashed by Li Hao, they shattered.

Myriad Daos in the world originate from the Nine Orders; when the Nine Orders Unity, they become invincible!

A series of shattering sounds rang out, and the numerous figures that had swarmed towards Li Hao were extinguished in an instant, falling like moths to a flame!

Blood Flying Sword, Immortal Power shattered, and the Heaven and Earth Dharma Form were annihilated!

With a single sword strike, the Battle Stage seemed to tear apart. Everyone on the Battle Stage was drawn into the crack in the Sword Dao, sucked in, unable to escape. In the end Immortal Body shattered and their Primordial Spirit torn apart!

"Not good!"

Upon seeing this, Immortal King Tan hurriedly intervened, using the power of his World Domain to envelop the aristocratic Heavenly Prodigy with weaker Aristocratic Clan Primordial Spirit, thus preventing their Primordial Spirit from truly being destroyed.

In that case, one can only be reincarnated, and it's unknown where one will be reincarnated.

This was originally Sparring of skills among the Heavenly Prodigy of various Aristocratic Clan, to be stopped when the point was reached. If anyone were to fall, he would also have to take responsibility.

Soon, the sword's power on the Battle Stage dissipated, and its residual force struck the Sealing Array Barrier, creating several ripples.

For the First Level of Immortal Lord Realm to be able to stir up ripples in this Sealing Array Barrier is already astonishing.

Gazing at the blood, flesh, and limbs splattered on the Battle Stage, the various Aristocratic Clan Heavenly Prodigy with their Immortal Body shattered, the scene instantly fell silent, utterly still.
