Chaos Elder
"Don't come any closer!"
Just as the Snow-haired Girl was about to step forward and come to the young lady's side to hold an umbrella for her, the Snow-haired Woman immediately stopped her.
If the other party comes, it will only cause trouble and could actually lead to real problems.
At this moment, her expression was extremely solemn. Feeling the gaze of the three Chaos Dao Seed, she felt a slight tingling sensation on her skin.
"Roar!"
With a low roar, the two Chaos Dao Seed on the Lake suddenly exuded an extremely strong pressure, and surging Chaos power surged out like a tide.
At the same time, a huge dark shadow swimming deep in the lake slowly revealed itself. Its body resembled a dragon or a serpent, but it had no scales. Instead, it was extremely smooth and covered with countless dense holes.
These holes were round and wet. As its upper body lifted up, all the holes suddenly trembled slightly, as if some ancient blind sound swept out.
The lake surface surged with thousands of waves. The Snow-haired Woman's expression changed drastically. Her eyes turned silver-white, like Liuli snow, exuding an ethereal and ancient Aura. Her body grew rapidly, her nails became sharp, and her skin was no longer as smooth and delicate as before, but instead had a bluish- Azure hue. A hint of ferocity appeared on her face.
This is the manifestation of Ancient Immortal Body. In the Primordial Era Chaos era, it fought against many Chaos Ancient Clan and lived with a group of extraordinary alien beings. Naturally, the appearance of the Ancient Immortal Clan also has some fierce and evil features.
The Dao Source Immortal Seal appeared on her forehead, followed by strands of Chaos Law that intertwined around her, like chains, covering the Void above the lake. She stood at the center of these intertwined Chaos Chains, like the king of all laws. With a wave of her hand, the chains of Principle intertwined and instantly condensed into one, transforming into a silver-white Sword Qi.
"World Suppression."
The two words, sharp and piercing, were uttered softly. Sword Qi, condensed from Twenty-Three Chaos Laws, suddenly roared and stirred up a terrifying sonic wave from the lake surface, slashing towards the Chaos Dao Seed that was rising in the lake.
The Chaos Dao Seed was the largest and strongest. If it could be killed, the pressure on the other two would be much less.
But as soon as the Sword Qi burst forth, the holes Chaos Dao Seed's body and its mouth simultaneously contracted, and then it roared fiercely, unleashing a piercing divine sound that, like a layer of water blades rising from the surface of water, slashed horizontally towards the Sword Qi.
The two forces collided with a loud bang, causing the lake to tremble violently and the surrounding area to shake violently. The Chaos Dao Seed leaned back slightly, but then suddenly exerted its strength to stabilize itself, and charged towards the Snow-haired Woman along with the other two.
The Snow-haired Woman's face contorted with Qi and Blood. Seeing that the Chaos Dao Seed hadn't suffered much impact, she couldn't help but feel astonished. Even she had to slow down to absorb this power; the opponent's physique was incredibly strong.
Her face turned ugly, but also more murderous. She formed hand seals, activating the Secret Art of the Ancient Immortal Clan. Dark blue veins appeared on her face, and her aura surged. Under the Refinement of Twenty-Three Chaos Laws, her aura rose again. At the moment the Chaos Dao Seed rushed over, she suddenly raised her hand, and silver Thunder Light seemed to condense in her palm. A killing sword Refinement from the light and ruthlessly suppressed it as she raised her hand.
Bang!
The sound of vibration came from afar.
Li Hao possessed astonishing hearing and Divine Sense spanning thousands of miles, which was why he was able to detect this aftershock.
At this moment, he was deep within the land of the Ninth Heavenly Domain.
He hadn't expected that this Ninth Heavenly Domain only had one landmass, but when viewed from the Starry Sky, its area was larger than the nine landmasses of the Eighth Heavenly Domain combined!
Moreover, here both Divine Sense and eyesight are restricted and compressed even more severely, thus making the range of one's perception smaller and the world seem more expansive.
"It seems the others have arrived as well."
Li Hao Dark Dao to himself that this must have been caused by others breaking into the Ninth Heavenly Domain. However, the noise was so loud that it would probably alert other Chaos Dao Seed within thousands of miles. Within the range of Li Hao's Divine Sense, three Chaos Dao Seed were awakened by the fluctuations and rushed towards the large lake.
"However, these Chaos Dao Seed are not Aura enough to compare with this one."
Li Hao's gaze was fixed on the fleeing Chaos Dao Seed in front of him.
This Chaos Dao Seed resembled a giant wolf, with grayish-blue fur and a massive body, standing ten zhang tall. Its eyes were also a deep Azure, and the Chaos Aura emanating from its body was far superior to that of the three small beasts in the lake.
They were similar to the four Chaos Dao Seed that had previously ambushed the Chaos River, and even stronger, especially in terms of speed. He chased after them here, but couldn't catch up with them for a while.
Of course, this is also because he is unwilling to unleash his full power directly. Otherwise, he could consume his lifespan to gain more power by unleashing various forces, including the Years Blade Intent of the Path of Carving.
"This Chaos Dao Seed is the gatekeeper of the Ninth Heavenly Domain. If there is such a thing as Beast King here, this one should be considered the Beast King!"
Li Hao Dark Dao to himself.
While he was chasing after it, he also had to take Di Lingshu with him. As they ventured deeper into the land, they observed their surroundings and saw many Chaos Dao Seed, but none of the ones within his Divine Sense's reach were as powerful as the one before him.
"It's time to end this."
As Li Hao watched the distance shrinking, his eyes turned cold. He suddenly accelerated, and the Karmic Power condensed in his palm. The Destiny Sword Qi transformed into a crimson light, ready to be unleashed.
The giant wolf Dao Seed to sense danger, its eyes filled with panic, and it suddenly let out a whimpering howl.
Whoosh!
The Destiny Sword Qi suddenly slashed out, like the sword that was Destiny to be slashed, unavoidable. Once locked on, no matter how fast you are, you cannot avoid it, and it will pierce through the River of Time!
Once locked on, Li Hao believed that with the power of the Destiny Sword Qi, he could kill the target in one strike.
Bang!
Suddenly, a force descended from the sky, striking the Destiny Sword Qi. The crimson Sword Qi vanished instantly, disappearing like a bubble.
Li Hao froze, his pupils contracted, and he looked around in horror.
Within a range of thousands of miles visible to the Divine Sense, no other figures were seen.
But Li Hao felt a Chill run through his body, and his hair stood on end.
"Young friend, could you spare my Little Dog? It has been with me for many years, and I cannot bear to see it die here."
As Li Hao looked around in surprise, a hoarse voice suddenly rang out and reached Li Hao ears.
Li Hao was taken aback, shocked. He looked around and, seeing that the voice wasn't malicious and could even be used for communication, he relaxed slightly and said in a low voice:
"May I ask your name, senior, and where you are located? I hope you will forgive me if I have offended you."
"I haven't seen a stranger in a long time, come on over."
The aged voice spoke in a calm tone. As soon as it finished speaking, a Void Passage suddenly appeared beneath the giant wolf Dao Seed in front of Li Hao. It was like a winding path leading to a secluded Bamboo Grove. The shadowy images of Bamboo Grove swayed on both sides, but the faint Bamboo Fragrance seemed to waft out as if it were real.
Li Hao was stunned as he watched the giant wolf Dao Seed shrink in size, transforming from a ferocious wolf into a dog half the height of a person, which ran towards the path deep within the Bamboo Grove shadow without looking back.
"Is there a reclusive master here?"
Li Hao was somewhat shocked and found it hard to believe, considering that Immortal Emperor could not enter the Endless Heavenly Domain!
Could it be that there are beings even stronger than the Immortal Emperor?
Feeling lost, Li Hao gazed at the secluded Bamboo Grove, then suddenly gritted his teeth and rushed in as well.
He knew that if the other party harbored ill intentions, with such abilities, killing him would be a piece of cake. If the other party was indeed limited by the Principle of the Endless Heavenly Domain and was not at the Immortal King Realm, then even if the other party was stronger than him now, he could still increase his combat power again by adding points to the Seventh Dan of Chaos Dao. He did not believe that the Seventh Dan of Chaos Dao was invincible among the Immortal Lord Realm!
He felt that if he truly advanced to the Seventh Dan of Chaos Dao, even Immortal King Realm could suppress him!
Although it was just a vague feeling, he was very certain of it, and therefore made a very decisive choice.
Soon, as Li Hao stepped onto the Bamboo Grove path, the mountains and rivers he had been chasing outside disappeared. He arrived at a Bamboo Grove along the path, and his Divine Sense suddenly compressed from a range of thousands of miles to a range of hundreds of meters!
At the same time, the air became incredibly solid, making it difficult for him to teleport. Even the Return to Emptiness Extreme Realm was sealed off here!
Li Hao was shocked. This restrictive force made him realize that he had underestimated the danger here.
He walked forward and saw, several hundred meters away, at the end of the path, a Thatched Cottage.
In front of the Thatched Cottage, two figures sat facing each other in front of Go Board Thatched Hut. The giant wolf that had shrunk into a large dog had run to the feet of one of the figures and was rubbing its head against his trouser leg.
Seeing this, Li Hao was somewhat stunned; there were actually people here!
Immortal Emperor cannot reach this place, yet others can!
And there were two of them!
He stood there, hesitant for a moment, but then he realized he was already there and had no way to retreat, so he gritted his teeth Past, silently preparing to add more points at any time.
"After so many years, there is actually another young fellow who can comprehend the power of Destiny, and even in a time when the Heavenly Dao is lacking, it is truly rare."
Before Li Hao even got close, the old man whose trouser leg had been rubbed by the big dog looked up. He was sitting facing Li Hao, and he smiled at Li Hao, revealing a set of snow-white teeth and a kind smile.
The large dog, Dao Seed, also looked up and stared at Li Hao, its eyes somewhat wary. It rubbed its head against the old man's hand and whimpered twice, as if it were complaining aggrievedly.
The old man patted its head and chuckled, "Alright, alright, it's rare to have the guts to come to the Ninth Heavenly Domain. Didn't you want to eat them all? It's just that your teeth aren't good enough."
Upon hearing this, the big dog felt even more aggrieved, and its gaze towards Li Hao was filled with resentment.
It did intend to guard the entrance to the Ninth Heavenly Domain, and devour any foreign races that might offend it in the future. However, it didn't expect to encounter such a tough nut to crack, and it almost lost its own life in the process.
Li Hao looked surprised and suspicious. He walked closer, but he could not sense the Aura emanating from the two old men. There was only a faint Chaos power swirling around them, but he could not perceive its depth. It was like a gust of wind, which would dissipate if touched carefully.
How should I address you, senior?
Li Hao cupped his hands in greeting and asked cautiously.
Seeing Li Hao's cautious demeanor, the old man chuckled and said, "Just call me Elder Qi, and he's Elder Ba."
As he spoke, he pointed to the aged figure sitting in front of the Go Board with his back to Li Hao.
Li Hao glanced at him; the Elder Ba were staring at the Go Board, motionless, their backs hunched like turtles, making no move whatsoever.
Elder Qi, Elder Ba? Li Hao muttered the name to himself, feeling it was a bit strange. It didn't sound like a proper name at all; it sounded more like a title, but even that title sounded rather casual.
The titles of those Immortal Emperor outside are all renowned throughout history and have shaken the universe.
"Senior, I've heard that even Immortal Emperor are forbidden from setting foot here. Could it be that you've surpassed the Immortal Emperor...?"
Li Hao couldn't help but ask himself, this was the biggest question he had ever seen about the old man. His heart pounded. In the True Realm, the Immortal Emperor was the Terminal Realm. This was information left behind by countless Years and countless secrets. There was no one who could surpass the Immortal Emperor. But in the depths of the Ninth Heavenly Domain, he actually saw two such strange old men.
They were unharmed in a place where Immortal Emperor could not set foot.
If Immortal Emperor could be like them, wouldn't cultivating their own Personal Disciple be a piece of cake?
This immense fortuitous opportunity in the Endless Heavenly Domain —couldn't it be allocated and controlled by the Immortal Emperor?!
"Surpassing the Immortal Emperor?"
Upon hearing Li Hao's words, the Elder Qi couldn't help but chuckle, then shook their heads and said, "The Immortal Emperor is already at the Terminal Realm of invincibility; how can we surpass him? Compared to him, we are Immortal Emperor."
"Not as good as the Immortal Emperor?"
Upon hearing the other party's words, Li Hao was taken aback. Was the old man before him inferior to Immortal Emperor?
Seeing Li Hao's astonishment and confusion, the Elder Qi chuckled and said, "That's right. If we were to truly compete outside, those children would surpass us. They have already forged a brilliant Great Dao to prosperity, Myriad Daos to cultivate themselves, and paved Heavenly Dao Emperor Path. This Non-Self beyond our reach."
Hearing this, Li Hao was both surprised and puzzled, and asked, "But even Immortal Emperor cannot set foot here, and those above the Immortal King Realm cannot enter. Seniors..."
He was thinking, "You two certainly aren't at the Immortal Lord Realm, are you?"
The Elder Qi smiled slightly and said, "We are merely remnants forgotten and eliminated by the times. Our path of cultivation is different from yours. Therefore, this Heavenly Domain does not restrict us. After all, this is our home."
"Home?"
Li Hao was somewhat bewildered.
My Master said that the Endless Heavenly Domain is the place where the Heavenly Dao was born.
Could it be that the two old people are the Heavenly Dao?
However, there are two paths to becoming Immortal Emperor. One is to Proving the Heavenly Heart, which means gaining the approval of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Emperor.
This naturally proves that the Heavenly Dao is supreme, higher than the Immortal Emperor, while the other party claims to be inferior to the Immortal Emperor. Therefore, he is not the Heavenly Dao, unless he is lying.
But the old man in front of me seemed to have no need to deceive me; he could have chosen not to say anything.
" In the Primordial Era, before the Myriad Dao Laws were divided, Chaos was originally one. How then should all living beings in Heaven and Earth cultivate?"
The Elder Qi noticed the doubt in the young man's heart and asked with a light laugh.
These words struck like a thunderbolt, shattering Li Hao's doubts. His pupils widened slightly as he looked at the old man before him:
"You... you mean you were born from Chaos, a being at the very beginning of Chaos?"
The Elder Qi smiled without saying a word, as if tacitly approving of Li Hao's answer.
Li Hao was shaken, and many thoughts also surfaced in his mind. Now they Refinement the Chaos Law and Cultivation Realm the Grand Dao Unification. Even their cultivation realms were opened up by many Immortal Emperors and Great Emperor of each era, including his Master, who opened up the Daoyuan Ultimate Realm... And the path they walked was, to put it bluntly, the path opened up by other Great Emperor.
But what about before these Great Emperors?
Li Hao suddenly realized that the old man in front of him was someone who existed before the Body Refining existed.
At that time, there was no Great Emperor in the world!
No one has claimed the title of king!
That era, without a doubt, was a distant and unreachable place, the beginning of Chaos.
The old man before me has probably lived through countless eras.
"Seventh Brother, it's your turn to log off."
Suddenly, a voice interrupted Li Hao's conversation with the Elder Qi.
The old man, who had his back to Li Hao, looked up at the Elder Qi and spoke in a similarly aged voice, but with a hint of urging, suggesting he was rather impatient.
The Elder Qi looked down, their eyes widening in surprise, then nodded and chuckled, "You've certainly given me a difficult task."
Upon hearing this, Li Hao looked at the Go Board the two were playing, but upon seeing it, he immediately felt dizzy and disoriented, as if he had fallen into an endless Starry Sky and arrived in a vast and boundless Starry Sky.
This Starry Sky seems to have a vast, boundless grid of lines, with countless Xingchen rising and falling, drifting along strange trajectories.
Li Hao's pupils contracted slightly. He had reached the peak of the 12th Chess Dao and had already accumulated enough experience points, but looking at this Go Board now, he felt a sense of profound depth, like Star River.
