The Boundary Gate and the Dao Heart
That's the Boundary Crossing Mountain.
Gu Mofan pointed and said to Di Lingshu and Li Hao beside him, "After crossing that mountain, we will enter the Chaos Turbulence area. Following the turbulent currents, we can enter the Endless Heavenly Domain. However, the turbulent currents are full of Chaos order power that erodes the physical body. Therefore, we will need to at least condense the Chaos Law to cross it."
"The stronger you are, the faster you can cross the barrier. You don't need to wait for others. Rely on your own abilities and enter the Endless Heavenly Domain as soon as possible. Be careful of the Chaos Dao Beast in the Heavenly Domain. They are not Chaos Lifeform, but manifestations of Chaos power, and they are extremely powerful."
Hearing their Eldest Senior Brother's words, Li Hao and Di Lingshu both nodded slightly.
"Most of the others have arrived as well."
Gu Mofan swept his gaze Boundary Crossing Mountain, where patches of shadow gathered in various places, each representing a different force.
Li Hao's gaze swept across the crowd, and soon, among the hundreds of people, he spotted some familiar figures.
They were all Heavenly Prodigy opponents encountered during battles in the Southern Region, as well as old friends with whom he had shared fine wine, and some familiar figures from the Northern Region.
"They've all come. Well, it's been Three Hundred Years. They're all top Heavenly Prodigy from their respective regions, so naturally they wouldn't miss this rare fortuitous opportunity," Li Hao Dark Dao to himself.
He nodded slightly to the figures of those who were in the sound of the sun; although they were far apart, it was as if he had greeted them.
Seeing Li Hao's expression, Di Linchen smiled. It seemed that the other party had indeed not forgotten what happened Three Hundred Years.
He responded with a smile, and at the same time, he noticed Di Lingshu, a Heavenly Prodigy from the clan, standing beside Li Hao.
The other party was also Imperial Daughter of the Emperor Clan, not Quasi-Emperor Scion like Di Jiming.
Di Lingshu's lineage was not familiar with his lineage, so when their eyes met, Di Linchen only nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
"Three Hundred Years have passed; he should have reached the Immortal Lord Realm Peak long ago."
Seeing Li Hao's expression, the Ghost Clan Sisters smiled and returned the greeting, exchanging words with each other.
Now, both Sisters have reached the Perfection of Immortal Lord Realm, and the number of Chaos Law they have condensed is about the same. However, their foundations in other aspects are different, and their strengths are much closer than before.
"Definitely."
Gui Ling nodded slightly.
Hearing their conversation, Lin Zhixuan's expression changed slightly, but he had to admit that it was the truth.
If it weren't for the obstruction of this Endless Heavenly Domain, the opponent might have already broken through to the realm and become King-Sealing.
From childhood to adulthood, among countless Heavenly Prodigy, this was the only one who put immense pressure on him.
"Is that her over there?"
Su Muqing's gaze fell on Shi Miao beside Li Hao. When she saw that the girl had the same face as her, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Although she had seen her in the illusion of Years in the Bright Emperor Hall before, she was seeing her with her own eyes now, and she felt an indescribable sense of shock.
Surprisingly, there really are people exactly like me.
"That's Haotian?"
Beside her, Su Wanyi squinted at the young man her father had sent back to arrange a blind date. He had come to the Original True World and had become famous All Under Heaven in just a few years, his fame even surpassing that of those of them who had been cultivating here for hundreds of years.
"He's truly an exceptional man, but why does the woman beside him look just like my little sister?"
Su Wanyi looked at Su Muqing with some confusion.
Su Wanqing and Su Wanxue both gazed silently, without saying a word.
Besides the many disciples of the Chaos Immortal Emperor, in the distance, in the Primal Land, several figures cast their gazes toward Li Hao. Among them, three figures made no attempt to conceal their killing intent, coldly staring at Li Hao.
"Is that the Human Race that caused such a huge commotion outside while I Seclusion? 69 stars in one day, creating a legend?"
A burly figure, entirely crimson with curved bull horns on his head, stared coldly at Li Hao with crimson-gold eyes. As Human Race, his arrogance was not a good thing.
"That's right, he has probably already Refinement Twenty-Three Chaos Laws, reaching the pinnacle."
Beside him, a Heavenly Prodigy from his own clan whispered.
"Hmph, there's a difference between the ultimate and the ultimate. Do you really think that reaching Twenty-Three Chaos Laws makes one invincible in the Immortal Lord Realm? It's time to let them know just how terrifying the Bloodline power of my Chaos Red Demon Clan is under the same realm and the same Chaos Law!"
The burly, ruddy-faced young man sneered.
"It really was him!"
Not far away, the Dark Gold Armored Youth stared at Li Hao. When he saw that familiar face, killing intent flashed in his eyes. He didn't believe that the other party could improve so quickly. He must have received his Master's inheritance. Even if he didn't receive Personal Disciple, he must have obtained many treasures.
And all those things should belong to him!
"That's... my Junior Sister?"
Suddenly, the Dark Gold Armored Youth noticed Shi Miao beside Li Hao, and his eyes widened in surprise.
"That, that Aura... that's not my Bloodline's offspring, the God Daughter, it really is my Junior Sister!"
"Could it be that my Junior Sister's Reincarnated Body has been reborn into my Bloodline?"
Shock was evident in his eyes.
When he awakened and his true self returned, he reviewed the memories of this life and naturally saw the God Daughter who looked exactly like his Junior Sister. However, although they looked the same, their Aura and personalities were very different. Therefore, he didn't think much of it. After all, it was not surprising that there were people with similar faces after countless Years.
But at this moment, he was absolutely certain that the figure standing next to the young man was his Junior Sister.
Back then, his Soul Core hadn't withered away and he hadn't completely perished. I never expected that my Junior Sister wouldn't die either!
"I see"
Suddenly, a realization dawned on his eyes, then his expression turned complicated. "Could it be that Junior Sister helped him obtain the inheritance?"
"If that's the case—Junior Sister, you can't blame your Senior Brother!"
He clenched his fists, regretting that he Awakening too late, only to Awakening himself in the Southern Region. He had no choice but to rely on the Southern Region Supreme, or his life would be in danger.
As his thoughts raced, Shi Miao, standing beside Li Hao, seemed to sense something and looked towards the Primal Land. Soon, she saw the Dark Gold Armored Youth. The moment their eyes met, Shi Miao was stunned.
Years changes things, and appearances may change, but she wouldn't mistake those eyes—it was her Senior Brother!
Divine Venerable Senior Brother!
She was once a top Heavenly Prodigy who was equally famous and possessed unparalleled Heavenly Talent.
He's not dead.
Shi Miao's eyes lit up with surprise, but soon she caught the light in those eyes and her expression changed slightly.
Senior Brother - how did you end up becoming an apprentice in this Primal Land?
You must understand, the Primal Land is where the Chaos Ancient Clan gathers. There are many Immortal Emperors to choose from in the Original True World. With Senior Brother abilities and skills, if you wanted to become an apprentice, all the other Immortal Emperor would welcome you. Why would you choose to go to the Primal Land?!
The surprise in her eyes instantly subsided, her brows furrowed, and memories flashed through her mind. She quickly realized that her Senior Brother had been reincarnated as the God King of the Land of Myriad Heavens, and it seemed that he was only now awakening his memories.
"That is... the God King?"
At this moment, Li Hao also noticed several murderous gazes cast from the Primal Land. He followed the gazes and saw a familiar figure among them. The other party's face was none other than the God King had arrived in the True Realm ahead of time!
Li Hao hadn't expected his opponent to be here. Back in the Tian Yang Pseudo-World, with the Source Ancestor by his side, they hadn't fought to the death, but this opponent had just harbored murderous intent towards him.
"Those Ancient Demon invaded, and both feigned death—I haven't even settled that score with them yet, and they're already coming after me first?"
A cold glint appeared in Li Hao's eyes. The Ancient Demon of the True Immortal Realm had invaded, and the Source Ancestor and the God King had both feigned death, forcing him to step forward. As a result, he almost lost his life. Fortunately, by a twist of fate, he obtained the inheritance of the Tian Yang Immortal Emperor. Otherwise, he would have probably died with regret.
Seeing the cold glint in Li Hao's eyes, the God King gave him a deep look, but did not reveal his killing intent.
His Junior Sister's arrival was unexpected, but he had already discerned that Junior Sister was at the Immortal King Realm, destined to miss this Endless Heavenly Domain, where no one could protect this young man.
Once he emerges from the Endless Heavenly Domain, he will be able to break through to the King-Sealing. For him, it will be nothing more than a bottleneck that he can overcome at any time, without any hindrance.
"Kid, it's all your fault for taking what wasn't rightfully yours."
The God King Dark Dao to himself, no longer looking at Li Hao. If it were just Li Hao here, he would deliberately pick on him, making the young man search for him in the Endless Heavenly Domain. He knew what had happened back then, and the young man must also harbor murderous intent towards him. It would be better to use this to attract the other party. But now, with his Junior Sister by his side, he subconsciously did not want to reveal too much.
"He's here too."
In other Chaos Immortal City, some people's eyes lit up when they saw Li Hao.
They were Jiang Huanhuan, Lin Jinrou, and others. They had all become disciples of various Chaos Immortal City and had heard of Li Hao's reputation over the past few hundred years. Today, they were finally able to meet him.
"It seems our Junior Little Brother has quite a reputation."
Gu Mofan chuckled.
As they arrived, many eyes turned to them. He had already noticed that most of those eyes were on Li Hao beside him.
Li Hao challenged in the Chaos Dao Arena, and countless people already recognized his face.
Upon hearing this, Di Lingshu smiled wryly. In terms of fame, this Junior Little Brother was indeed renowned. His sudden appearance Three Hundred Years ago startled countless people, and now he had officially made his debut.
"That's Haotian?"
"The legendary Prodigy who mastered 69 stars in a single day—this must be him in True Form!"
"In just Three Hundred Years, he's already able to rival Brother E'luo!"
"If one were to Refinement Twenty-Three Chaos Laws, it's said one could reach the top 30 of the Chaos Heavenly Dao Ranking!"
"Which level we get depends on the other Great Dao realms."
Many people were talking about it and whispering among themselves.
Everyone at Extreme Dao Mountain could hear that various forces were talking about this Senior Brother Haotian, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and excitement, after all, this was their Senior Brother Haotian!
"Snort!"
Besides those discussing the matter, there were also many figures from various factions whose cold eyes swept over Li Hao, clearly displeased with the surrounding conversation.
Refinement Twenty-Three Chaos Laws is not the ultimate bottleneck; 24 is the ultimate limit. It's just that Destiny hides it, and no one can Refinement Twenty-Four Chaos Laws. But besides that, there are other methods such as the Great Dao Origin and the power of Bloodline. It's not that Refinement Twenty-Three Chaos Laws guarantees that you'll be on the same level.
"Human Race hasn't produced such Prodigy in many years."
A woman with a snow-white face and snow-white eyes spoke calmly.
She stood there, like a Sculpting made of ice and snow, her whole body silvery white.
"No matter Prodigy, it cannot compare to you, Miss. Although the racial disadvantages of the Human Race have been mitigated to some extent through Bloodline reproduction, only a few races can truly be considered qualified."
Beside her, another Silver White Girl spoke respectfully.
Why would you compare him to me?
These flattering words, when they reached the ears of the Snow White Woman, caused her eyes to turn slightly cold as she turned to look at the girl beside her.
The young girl was startled, her pupils trembling slightly. She hurriedly lowered her head and said, "Miss, it's me—"
With a loud thud, a bright red palm print suddenly appeared on her face. It wasn't loud; instead, it felt like a dull thud. Cracks even appeared on that tender young girl's cheek.
This will not be repeated.
The Snow White Woman spoke calmly.
The girl bowed her head and said gratefully, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss."
What is that?
Li Hao pointed to the Boundary Crossing Mountain, where there were two Lone Peak peaks resembling gateposts. In the center of these two Lone Peak, a dark purple thundercloud swirled, within which faint Long Ying could be seen galloping about, but there was no Aura of life.
That's the Boundary Gate.
Gu Mofan said, "Passing through there will allow you to enter the Chaos River, which is considered the first Dao Gate, a test of Dao Heart. If Dao Heart has not reached the Eternity, one cannot enter. This is a rule jointly established by the three Immortal Emperors, including Master. After all, there's no need to waste such a precious land as the Endless Heavenly Domain on people with low Dao Heart. If one doesn't even have Eternal Dao Heart, then naturally there's no hope of attempting to break through to the supreme Emperor Path."
Li Hao suddenly realized.
"The Boundary Gate reveals Dao Heart, the Chaos River reveals one's Realm, Endless Heavenly Domain reveals fortuitous opportunity and Methods."
Gu Mofan said.
Shortly after their arrival, more figures arrived.
The surrounding chatter grew louder, with everyone discussing the fortuitous opportunity in the Endless Heavenly Domain Realm.
"Brother Mo Fan, congratulations! Another Prodigy has emerged from your Extreme Dao Mountain."
A figure appeared before Li Hao and the others, speaking to Gu Mofan while looking at Li Hao and Di Lingshu with a smile.
Gu Mofan smiled and said, "Your Chaos Sea is quite impressive; you've recruited many powerful Heavenly Prodigy."
"No matter how many there are, they can't compare to this kid."
The young man shook his head and gave Li Hao a gentle smile.
Li Hao didn't sense any malice, so he responded with a smile.
"What, are you planning to join forces this time?"
Gu Mofan asked.
The young man nodded and said, "That's natural. I've already told my disciples to avoid fighting with you in the Endless Heavenly Domain as much as possible. If we both manage to seize the same fortuitous opportunity, then we'll each rely on our own abilities. If not, we shouldn't launch an attack, because the Primal Land and the other Chaos Immortal City certainly won't be polite to us."
"Um."
Gu Mofan nodded, "Then let's do it the same way."
"Good."
The young man nodded, then turned and left. Before leaving, he waved to Li Hao and said with a smile, "Little guy, work hard! I look forward to seeing you in the Demon Realm."
"Demon Realm?"
After the young man left, Li Hao looked at Gu Mofan with a puzzled expression.
"The Demon Realm is the ultimate battlefield of the Ancient Demon; only powerful Immortal King Realm have the opportunity to go there."
Gu Mofan said to Li Hao, "In recent years, apart from the attacks by the Ancient Demon, we haven't just sat idly by and waited to die. The Demon Realm is the battlefield where all the Myriad Races of the True World invade the Ancient Demon Lands. It's also the pinnacle of the battles between the two races, and even Great Emperor sometimes come in person!"
As he said this, his eyes became extremely solemn. The battlefield was the final resting place of countless heroes of the True Realm, including even Great Emperor!
Li Hao remained silent for a moment. The higher one's cultivation level, the sooner or later one will have to fight against the Ancient Demon. Even if he wanted to hide, the Ancient Demon would regard the top combatants of the Human Race as thorns in their side. After all, if they wanted to devour the True Realm, they would naturally have to eliminate these top combatants.
I'm really looking forward to that day.
After a long pause, Li Hao slowly spoke.
Gu Mofan glanced at Li Hao, expecting Li Hao to be frightened by his explanation, but he was surprised by this response. He paused for a moment.
He then burst into laughter, patting Li Hao on the shoulder:
"Good junior brother, you have ambition! When the time comes, your Senior Brother will definitely accompany you and fight them until the Heaven-Darkening Battle!"
As he spoke, a muffled thunderclap shook the heavens and Heaven and Earth!
Li Hao and Di Lingshu both looked up and saw a dazzling golden Thunder Descent from the Boundary Crossing Mountain, striking the Boundary Gate. The purple clouds above the Boundary Gate were illuminated as gold, and within them, one could vaguely see Long Ying soaring, with the Principle of the Great Dao intertwined like a spider web.
"The Endless Heavenly Domain has opened."
Gu Mofan looked up, his eyes flashing with what seemed like golden lightning, and said, "Go."
As he spoke, the figures who had arrived first all took flight and rushed towards the Boundary Gate.
