Challenges from all sides-he accepted them all!

Realizing this possibility, Di Lingshu's heart was filled with turmoil. Her Master had said that the young man would catch up with her within a thousand years, but it turned out that the other party had only been a disciple for a year!

"Could he be the reincarnation of some Immortal Emperor? But his Soul Lifespan is clearly only a hundred years..."

Di Lingshu was shocked. If it were a reincarnation of the Immortal King Realm, it might still be possible. After all, some Immortal King Realm had already Refinement many Chaos Law. If they were to reincarnate and further their cultivation, they would still maintain their original level in terms of Dao Realm Comprehension, leaving their peers far behind.

But with Soul Lifespan a hundred years, it seems even more incredible that one could cultivate to the Immortal King Realm and then reincarnate.

"Regardless of whether he's my Junior Little Brother or not, I need to focus now. Even if it's not him, I need to concentrate even more, otherwise he'll definitely surpass me and leave me nowhere in Three Hundred Years..."

Di Lingshu's gaze suddenly narrowed, her mind returning to herself. She no longer paid attention to the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking, but instead focused on continuing to comprehend the Chaos Law she wanted to Refinement.

In the Extreme Dao Mountain, in Hedge-Enclosed Courtyard.

Li Hao Refinement the Chaos Law one by one, and the Great Dao resounded around him. Many Great Dao Origin appeared around his body, and chains of Principle spread like a chaotic spider web around the Heaven and Earth.

Shi Miao's eyes widened in surprise. Although she didn't know what the purpose of Li Hao's special trump card was, the speed at which he could Law Fusion was simply too exaggerated!

With such a rapid pace of cultivation, she suspected that Li Hao would soon be able to complete the path that even she herself had taken thousands of years to traverse.

Suddenly, her eyes flickered as she looked outside the Small Courtyard. There, Dao Source Immortal Emperor had appeared at some point, hovering quietly in the air above the Small Courtyard, observing the young man cultivating inside.

Noticing Shi Miao's gaze, Dao Source Immortal Emperor shook his head slightly at Shi Miao, signaling her not to disturb Li Hao.

Shi Miao naturally wouldn't interfere with Li Hao's cultivation. She nodded slightly to Dao Source Immortal Emperor, but a trace of worry arose in her heart. This concerned Li Hao's special trump card. Although Dao Source Immortal Emperor had no ill intentions, possessing such a treasure might tempt even the Immortal Emperor.

In the blink of an eye, Li Hao had Refinement the Principle to the ninth level, and finally felt that it was becoming increasingly difficult.

With his understanding of the Fourth Dan of the Chaos Dao, he has almost reached the bottleneck in Refinement the Nine Laws. If he continues to Refinement them, he will have to rely on painstaking effort. Although he can continue to Refinement, it may take several years or even longer.

Li Hao slowly opened his eyes, his gaze seemingly filled with countless intertwined chains of Principle, before quickly disappearing again.

He sat upright on the ground, yet possessed a unified and serene aura, like Divine Sword ready to be drawn at any moment.

"The Law Fusion... this is the true meaning of 'superposition'!"

Li Hao Dark Dao to himself.

No wonder it's said that Law Fusion is the most difficult step. The 69 Chaos Stars I comprehended and the Chaos Law I condensed before are far inferior to this Refinement of Chaos Law!

Simply Refinement two Chaos Law into one would result in a combat power boost that would be incomparable to the sum of Twenty-Three Chaos Laws.

Each time a Chaos Law Refinement, its power doubles!

It is conceivable how exaggerated the combat power would be when all Twenty-Three Chaos Laws Refinement together. Compared with the Immortal Lord Realm before coming to the Original True World Realm, it would be like heaven and earth, no less than the difference between the Immortal King Realm and the Immortal King Realm!

"No wonder those top Heavenly Prodigy Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Catastrophe could roam freely and be invincible among their peers, unafraid of being attacked by a group."

"Such a disparity in power means that even a massive human wave attack would be crushed and annihilated in an instant, like bubbles!"

Li Hao took a deep breath, preparing to continue adding points to reach the Fifth Dan of Chaos Dao.

Only 3 Art Skill Point remain.

He looked at Shi Miao, and suddenly, following Shi Miao's gaze, he noticed that outside the Small Courtyard, his Master had arrived at some unknown time.

Li Hao quickly stood up, bowed, and said, "Master!"

Li Hao held Dao Source Immortal Emperor, to whom he had been saved, in the highest esteem.

Dao Source Immortal Emperor nodded slightly, gazing intently at Li Hao, and said, "I see your speed in Law Fusion is getting slower and slower. Have you reached a bottleneck?"

Li Hao knew that everything that happened on this Extreme Dao Mountain could be investigated by his Master if he wanted to. He figured that his Master had noticed the increasing Aura he had when he Law Fusion.

"That's the current situation."

Li Hao nodded.

Dao Source Immortal Emperor nodded slowly and said, "It's fortunate that you hid your ranking beforehand. Otherwise, with your rate of improvement, the outside world would definitely be in an uproar. Those old guys would probably have noticed you too. Your ranking should be close to the top ten thousand by now, right?"

Only then did Li Hao notice the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking. After looking through it, he found that he had indeed reached number 11,000.

The higher you go, the smaller the improvement becomes, and now he can also see many figures outside the top 1,000 on the overall ranking.

Among them, the person ranked at the top was none other than one who had Refinement 18 Chaos Law!

And its ranking is surprisingly outside the top 1000!

Li Hao felt that the real competition for the top spot probably took place among the top thousand.

"Um."

Li Hao nodded and asked doubtfully, "Is the old guy the master is talking about other immortal emperors? Do you want me to slow down?"

Dao Source Immortal Emperor raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "You cultivated based on your own abilities, there's no need to slow down. Just cultivate as you normally would, and leave the rest to me. If they're truly envious, then I'll just gouge out their eyes."

As he spoke, he thought to himself that your foundation had also reached a bottleneck, and further improvement could not continue at such a rapid pace, as long as you don't try to Refinement Twenty Chaos Laws all at once right now.

"You can continue."

He gave a brief instruction, then turned and left with his hands behind his back.

After his Master left, Li Hao's eyes showed a thoughtful expression. It seemed that he needed to slow down a bit.

Although Master said he would stop everything, I don't need to put too much pressure on Master.

If someone comprehends 69 stars in a single day, others can understand it as part of their existing foundation. However, if they continue to improve at a high speed when they reach the stage of Law Fusion, then that foundation is too extraordinary and will indeed attract some unnecessary covetousness and speculation.

Fifth Dan of Chaos Dao... let's hold off for now.

Anyway, we can add some more anytime, so there's no rush.

Thinking of all this, Li Hao was about to greet Shi Miao when he suddenly sensed the vibration of the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking and couldn't help but frown.

He had faintly sensed the tremors of the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking when he was Law Fusion, but he ignored it and focused his mind on cultivation.

Is it the shock of rising in rankings?

Li Hao summoned the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking in his sea of consciousness and immediately discovered that these tremors were actually challenge applications.

"I am Hei Xiao, Chaos Huagu Clan, at the Tenth Layer of the Immortal Lord Realm, having comprehended Fifteen Chaos Laws. Please enlighten me!"

"I am Zhuo Fu, Chaos Disciple, at the Tenth Layer of the Immortal Lord Realm, and I have comprehended 16 Chaos Law. I have come here to seek your guidance!"

"I've heard your cultivation is Divine Speed. I am Zhu Hu, Tenth Layer of the Immortal Lord Realm, and I've comprehended Twenty-Three Chaos Laws. When will you condense Twenty-Three Chaos Laws? Please accept my challenge and let me see how much you've got!"

One after another, illusory figures appeared, each representing a challenge from a different race's Dao Arena.

Li Hao's gaze swept across the area, but he didn't see any blood-red challenges; they were all just ordinary Dao Arena Sparring in the dojo.

This Sparring Dao Arena, though merely a reflection of the incarnation, is a genuine and serious Sparring.

Li Hao scrolled down and couldn't help but twitch his lips. Good heavens, in just this short time of cultivation, the number of challenges had reached more than eight thousand, and it was still increasing at an astonishing rate!

"How?"

Seeing that Li Hao's expression was strange, Shi Miao couldn't help but ask.

Li Hao snapped out of his daze and said with a wry smile, "There are so many Dao Arena challenges, over eight thousand in total, and it'll probably be over ten thousand soon!"

"This..."

Shi Miao was also stunned. More than eight thousand challenges?

Even someone as knowledgeable as her had never heard of such a thing.

This also shows just how famous Li Hao is in the Original True World, with all the Heavenly Prodigy wanting to test their skills against him.

Other Heavenly Prodigy ranked higher on the list, but few challenged them, and no one dared to offend them easily. Li Hao was the only exception, and he still couldn't convince the public.

Are there Dao Arena Blood Duel?

Shi Miao asked.

Li Hao glanced at it and found that there were only four or five Blood Duel Challenge mixed in. Four of them were from the Chaos Ancient Clan, and one was from the Human Race in the Primal Land. Refinement Sixteen Chaos Laws!

It was the Primal Land again... Li Hao saw the phantom and checked its ranking; it was ranked over four thousandth.

Without a doubt, this is definitely a top-tier Immortal Lord Realm. Could this person be the one behind Wu Ming?

Li Hao's eyes flickered. If he added some points to the Fifth Dan of Chaos Dao, he could accept the opponent's challenge and find out the reason.

But if that's the case, once the Blood Duel ends, it will inevitably cause a huge uproar outside.

Li Hao thought it was better to wait and let the bullets fly for a while.

"A little, but not much."

Li Hao sensed the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking still vibrating, a series of invitations to challenge the Dao Arena arriving.

He felt a little helpless; such words really did affect his cultivation.

Ordinary Sparring mean nothing to him.

"Let's see if using my Dark Side Clone to fight will affect me."

Li Hao Dark Dao to himself.

He immediately sat down cross-legged, and then, using his Two-Faced Person Attribute, created Dark Side Clone.

Accompanied by a strange sensation, a figure that looked exactly like him gradually materialized before his eyes.

The Dark Side Clone only inherits 30% of his own power, including the True God Blood, the strength of his Immortal Body, and his comprehension of the Dao Realm —all at 30%.

Shi Miao saw the Dark Side Clone created by Li Hao, her eyes flickered slightly. Ying Xiaoxiao's memories of this life surfaced. In that small border town, she had seen Li Hao's Dark Side Clone before.

Now, Li Hao's Dark Side Clone appears to have a restrained Aura, with calm yet sharp eyes, unlike the dull one he created before.

It's hard to tell it's a clone unless you look closely.

"Can you summon the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking?" Li Hao asked the Dark Side Clone.

The Dark Side Clone nodded, "Yes."

He then raised his hand and pointed, and a Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking appeared in the Void, but it seemed somewhat illusory, with dark gray edges.

Li Hao glanced at it and discovered that the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking of the Dark Side Clone Avatar also contained the same challenges he had just seen.

"It really works..."

Li Hao was secretly delighted. He hadn't expected the Dark Side Clone's ability to be so unique. He knew that the avatar projected by the Immortal Arts Technique didn't have the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking. In this way, once he accepted the challenge from the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking, his avatar would be projected into the Chaos Dao Arena. When the avatar was killed and dissipated, it would be he who was affected.

The Dark Side Clone actually seemed to be truly independent entities, and there was also the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking, although it looked like a fake ranking.

"These challenges are now yours to face, from the weakest to the strongest."

Li Hao said.

The Chaos Dao Arena Challenge has a one-year cooldown period after each challenge, during which the challenged player can refuse to accept further challenges.

But if it's something you're willing to do yourself, then there's nothing more to say.

"Good."

The Dark Side Clone nodded, then began the selection process, choosing one challenge to accept.

Soon, in front of the Dark Side Clone, a Chaos force condensed, seemingly transforming into a power of Principle and order, reflecting onto it before disappearing after a moment.

At the same time, Li Hao himself received a notification that he had taken on one of the many challenges!

"Let's go take a look."

Li Hao was somewhat curious; it actually worked. He wondered what would happen if they lost.

He selected to spectate the battle through the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking, and immediately a Chaos gap appeared. He traversed through it and entered.

He arrived Chaos Dao Arena the Blood Duel had taken place. This time, he stood in the Void, while figures flew in one after another from the surrounding area, as if they had passed directly through the Void.

Meanwhile, an avatar of the Dark Side Clone stood in the Dao Arena.

Li Hao glanced at it and noticed that the avatar's aura also carried a hint of darkness.

"Look, isn't that Haotian?"

"He actually accepted the challenge! I saw the challenge message; the one challenging him is from the Chaos Guye Clan, who has condensed Five Daos Chaos Law. He dares to challenge someone like that?"

"They probably saw Haotian as a sparring partner and wanted to test the waters themselves."

"Indeed, rumors are not as good as seeing them in person. The rumors circulating outside are too exaggerated; I don't believe them at all. I even applied for a challenge, but he didn't accept."

A murmur of discussion could be heard from the surrounding area.

The various factions in the Original True World are extremely interested in and curious about this extraordinary Human Race Prodigy has suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"Look, isn't that his True Form? He's here to watch the battle too."

At this moment, someone noticed Li Hao and pointed at him from a distance.

The others soon saw Li Hao as well, and couldn't help but scrutinize him closely, only to discover that Li Hao was indeed as rumored, with a cultivation level of only the Third Level of Immortal Lord Realm.

Many people approached Li Hao, seemingly wanting to strike up a conversation and become Li Hao acquaintance.

Li Hao frowned, directly raising his Dao Domain outside his body. With a flicker, the Void-Splitting Chaos Law enveloped him, placing him between reality and illusion.

Seeing that Li Hao did not want to be disturbed, Shi Miao cooperated by creating a Time and Space membrane around Li Hao, placing Li Hao in the Past one second earlier. Others could only see him, but could not touch or affect him.

Even so, Li Hao saw things a second later than the others, but the surroundings became quiet.

Soon, the battle within the Barrier began.

Both were manifestations of reflection, but just as the Heavenly Prodigy of the Ancient Night Clan unleashed his attack, the manifestation of the Dark Side Clone unleashed more than a dozen Chaos Law, killing him indiscriminately.

In the Void, many people's expressions changed, and they couldn't help but gasp in shock.

This was entirely due to the sheer number of Chaos Law overwhelming them. I had expected at least a fierce battle, but it turned out to be a one-sided affair.

"Their strength has indeed weakened considerably..."

Li Hao observed this scene, his eyes flickering slightly. Although the killing was swift and decisive, if he himself had used the same method, its power would have been far greater.

He glanced at it twice, then withdrew from the Void and returned to Extreme Dao Mountain.

"The challenge is yours."

Li Hao confidently left all the challenges to his Dark Side Clone to eliminate, while he himself searched the small house and found the Ancient Zither.

Previously in the Land of the Yellow Springs, Li Hao raised his Musical Rhythm skill to level 8. Now, if he wants to continue to quickly gain Art Skill Point, he can only start with Musical Rhythm and Poetry and Literature.

However, unlike before when he treated Musical Rhythm purely as a pastime, Li Hao was now putting much more effort into it.

Soon, the melodious sound of the zither echoed in the Small Courtyard.

Shi Miao was somewhat surprised to see Li Hao playing the zither for her again, and asked, "Aren't you planning to cultivate?"

Previously, in the outside world, playing and having fun was fine, but in the Original True World, time is precious. All the Heavenly Prodigy from other places who come here are vying to comprehend and cultivate, not daring to stop for even a moment.

"This can also be considered a form of cultivation."

Li Hao smiled slightly.

Upon Shi Miao gazed at Li Hao. Seeing Li Hao composed expression, she didn't say anything more. Being able to stay by Li Hao's side made her feel incredibly happy.

As the music of the zither echoed, challenges continued to arise in the Chaos Dao Arena.

The avatars of the Dark Side Clone were inside, relentlessly slaying the avatars of challengers, seemingly without end.

"My God, just how many people have challenged him?"

"He's been challenging everyone non-stop. He's so audacious! Is he planning to respond to every single one of them?"

"He's taking on a challenge with a one-year cooldown period, but judging from his expression, he has no intention of taking a break at all..."

Many onlookers were shocked, feeling that this young man had a terrible temper. He could have refused the challenge, but instead, he kept going on and on from the very first challenge!

In the Void, more and more people were watching. Sword Heart and Mingyue heard the news and stopped their cultivation. They entered the Void through the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking and saw Li Hao's avatar inside activating the Chaos Law to kill a Chaos Ancient Clan.

The two were shocked and remained there, not leaving, as they discovered that Li Hao had repeatedly challenged them, revealing extremely terrifying power.

"Is this... is this his combat power?"

Mingyue watched this scene in shock. At this moment, Li Hao Mastery more than a dozen Chaos Law and was almost indiscriminately killing the challengers!

For someone like her, who hadn't even condensed a single Chaos Law, the difference in combat power was simply an insurmountable chasm. If she were to fight, she wouldn't even be able to withstand a single move from Li Hao!

Beside her, Sword Heart's eyes were also filled with shock. He had heard many rumors before, but none were as shocking as seeing it with his own eyes.

They thought that since they had been more than twenty years ahead of the other in reaching the Original True World, the gap had widened, and that the famous Heavenly Prodigy of the Southern Region would eventually fade into obscurity. Unexpectedly, when they met again, it was they who had been left far behind.

"That's amazing."

The two Ghost Clan Sisters also arrived, their eyes filled with shock.

Among the crowd were Shen Wuji of the Ancient God Clan, and other figures. If Li Hao were here, he would recognize them as the top Heavenly Prodigy of the Southern Region.

"He's become stronger, even more outrageous..."

Di Linchen, dressed in a silver-white Robe, stared intently at the avatar in the Dao Arena. The opponent had effortlessly defeated the Chaos Ancient Clan had mastered more than ten Chaos Law without any apparent pressure.

"Has it already surpassed us by over a thousand years...?"

The Ancient God Clan Shen Wuji stared blankly at the scene, never expecting that their reunion would be like this.

The challenges continue.

As one Heavenly Prodigy after another shattered their forms and was defeated in the Dao Arena, Li Hao's reputation grew louder and louder.

Meanwhile, in the Hedge-Enclosed Courtyard, the person in question was looking through a Guqin Manual, earnestly learning the melody. Although their playing was somewhat clumsy, the underlying Musical Rhythm knowledge of the Eighth Dan was still quite pleasing to the ear.

"I added two notes to today's piece; come and listen."

Li Hao was in high spirits and invited Shi Miao to come and watch.

Shi Miao smiled, sat down beside her, rested her chin on her hand, and listened attentively.

"Indeed, it's even more beautiful this way, giving off a feeling of flowing water amidst towering mountains..."

After listening to the song, Shi Miao couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Upon hearing this evaluation, Li Hao couldn't help but burst into laughter, as if he were overjoyed at a breakthrough in his cultivation level.

On a mountain peak in Primal Land.

The young man, dressed in dark gold Battle Armor, sat in the main seat, listening to the report from the young man in front of him, his eyes cold.

Sure enough, this style of behavior is in line with that kid's personality—too arrogant, intending to respond to all challengers. Let's see if they have the guts to respond to the grand gift he specially prepared for Li Hao!
