There was always a heaven beyond heaven
After absorbing the Heavenly Dao Power from this Chaos Dao Seed, Li Hao's figure blurred as he charged towards the Chaos Dao Seed on the west side.
Soon, both Chaos Dao Seed were dealt with, and Li Hao did not linger, continuing on his way elsewhere.
His Divine Sense covered three thousand miles, greatly expanding his detection range and increasing his hunting efficiency.
Li Hao conducted a thorough search, sweeping from east to west. Along the way, he detected Luo Ningshuang and Su Wanyi again through his Divine Sense, but Li Hao deliberately avoided them and did not meet or exchange pleasantries with them.
As for the two of them hunting here, he didn't disturb them. It's not easy for Heavenly Prodigy to reach the Ninth Heavenly Domain. Unless they harbored malice towards him or insulted the Human Race, he wouldn't take the initiative to interfere. After all, in the Future war against the Ancient Demon, these Heavenly Prodigy today might be allies at that time.
Through continuous hunting, Li Hao accumulated an extremely rich amount of Heavenly Dao Power within his body. Each time he swept from one side of the land to the other, he could hunt down at least a hundred Chaos Dao Seed.
He felt that he already had enough Heavenly Dao Power to construct his World Domain, and he needed to save the rest to enhance his Chaos Dao Realm.
After the hunt, before heading to the Ascension Path, Li Hao planned to upgrade his Chaos Dao to another level.
His previous battle with the God King made him realize that his current combat strength was not yet invincible at the Immortal Lord Realm.
Facing God King who possessed numerous Terminal Realm Power, he had almost exhausted all his strength to defeat him. If he encountered an opponent of the same level again, he did not want to fight to that extent again.
"Senior Sister, this is for you."
Li Hao sent two portions of Heavenly Dao Power into the Heaven and Earth Space and handed them to his senior Senior Sister, Di Lingshu.
Having arrived at the Ninth Heavenly Domain, Li Hao, considering the dangers there, worried about her safety and took her into his Heaven and Earth Space, figuring she wouldn't have a chance to attack here anyway.
"Junior brother, no!"
Di Lingshu was startled and hurriedly declined.
She did nothing here, yet Li Hao still honored their previous agreement and shared the Heavenly Dao Power he had hunted with her. This was the greatest fortuitous opportunity for the Immortal Lord Realm, the Emperor Path. Countless top Heavenly Prodigy came here to compete for it, scrambling to grab it, but Li Hao just gave it away without hesitation.
As a member of the Emperor Clan, she had obtained countless rare treasures, but even within her own Lineage, there were conditions for acquiring those extremely rare treasures.
Heavenly Talent, purity of Bloodline, the foundation of her parents' lineage... even her parents chose to allocate the most Cultivation Resources to her among her siblings because she had higher Heavenly Talent and would reap greater rewards if she succeeded in her cultivation in the future.
Before she met Li Hao, in the entire Heaven and Earth, only her Master had nurtured her without expecting anything in return.
The Master doesn't ask for anything in return because if you wanted to repay the Master, you would at least have to cultivate to the highest realm and become Immortal Emperor before you would be qualified to talk about repaying.
Aside from his Master, there was only the young man before him.
That's precisely why she finds it even more unacceptable.
"We agreed before, so take it." Li Hao said.
Di Lingshu smiled bitterly. Li Hao had previously said he would give her one-tenth of what he had cleaned. One-tenth didn't sound like much, but after cleaning the Eighth Heavenly Domain, even just one-tenth would be a terrifying amount.
She was determined not to accept the Heavenly Dao Power of the Ninth Heavenly Domain any longer.
"Junior brother, you've given me so much, really so much."
Di Lingshu said repeatedly.
"It was all agreed upon beforehand."
"... Junior Little Brother, I'm begging you, Senior Sister."
Di Lingshu said this with a bitter face, feeling a sense of absurdity in her heart.
Just from the conversation, one would think she had suffered some great injustice; no one would dare imagine that the other party was forcibly giving her the Heavenly Dao Power.
"..."
Li Hao was somewhat speechless, but he didn't want to force Di Lingshu, so he said, "Senior Sister, are you worried about not being able to repay the favor? It's alright. Now that we're here, we should make this fortuitous opportunity come to Perfection conclusion."
Di Lingshu understood Li Hao's intentions and said repeatedly, "It's already Perfection enough. The Heavenly Dao Power within me is sufficient."
Besides being unable to bear accepting any more, she genuinely felt that the Heavenly Dao Power within her body was already sufficient. Otherwise, if this amount wasn't enough, then the Heavenly Dao Power received by others would be nothing more than a grain of rice.
Seeing that she was determined to refuse, Li Hao thought for a moment and didn't press her further, saying, "If it's not enough, just tell me."
"Um."
Di Lingshu nodded, but felt a sense of relief.
She was truly worried that she would find it difficult to repay such a deep favor.
Li Hao withdrew the two portions of Heavenly Dao Power and then continued to sweep forward, hunting down Chaos Dao Seed.
They encountered Chaos Dao Seed at the Beast King-Level, whose combat strength was similar to the four that had ambushed them by the Chaos River earlier, but Li Hao easily killed them.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Li Hao, who was walking forward, saw a figure walking on the water on a Lake.
The figure was dressed in a black robe, with a veiled face, a well-proportioned figure, and Aura of coldness and unapproachability emanating from him.
When Li Hao's Divine Sense detected the other party, the person seemed to notice Li Hao as well, and actually turned their eyes toward Li Hao's location.
Li Hao was slightly taken aback. The moment the other person turned their gaze towards him, he felt as if their eyes met. At that moment, he was certain that the other person had noticed him.
However, his Divine Sense range is over three thousand miles, so usually he can perceive others while they remain completely unaware.
This is the first time that, at the same time he noticed the other person, the other person could also notice him!
Li Hao felt a chill run down his spine, and his hair stood on end. He had thought that the God King he had encountered earlier, even if he wasn't the top among these Heavenly Prodigy, was at least one of the best. But the Black-robed Youth he was facing was clearly an even more terrifying being.
"His Divine Sense is almost the same as mine, or even possibly surpasses mine!"
Li Hao's eyes narrowed slightly. Did this mean that the other party's True God Blood surpassed his?!
Along the way, Li Hao encountered many powerful enemies, but this was the first time he had met someone of the same realm whose Divine Sense surpassed his own.
His expression was solemn; he stopped in his tracks and did not continue walking.
They were separated by thousands of miles, gazing at each other from afar.
On the lake, a glint flashed in the eyes of the Black-robed Youth, his heart filled with surprise.
Divine Sense really that far away?
To reach such a range in this Ninth Heavenly Domain, the opponent is definitely not at the Primordial Spirit Extreme Realm, but has condensed True God Blood, and in considerable quantities!
"Immortal Lord Realm, True God Blood, and at least three thousand drops condensed?"
The Black-robed Youth was somewhat dazed, and for a moment even wondered if it was one of his old friends who had been reincarnated into this world.
"That young man seems to be... the Human Race Haotian who caused such a stir before?"
"Non-Self of our kind, could he be the reincarnation of Human Race Great Emperor?"
"The legend of 69 stars in one day... seems to have no other possibility except for the awakening of the Great Emperor."
His eyes flickered slightly. If the other party was also Great Emperor, then it seemed he wouldn't be alone on this Ascension Path.
Otherwise, competing with those little guys would be rather boring and tedious.
A slight smile appeared on his lips as he nodded slightly to the other person. The smile in his eyes, along with the nod, revealed a sharp, murderous intent, yet remained polite and dignified.
Li Hao was slightly taken aback by the calm and composed killing intent emanating from the other party's eyes. This feeling was very strange. Although it was Killing Aura, it was extremely calm and composed. That killing intent did not come from personal grudges or petty hatreds, but rather seemed to be a great righteous feud between races. It had both the composure of treating the opponent as an opponent and the determination to fight with all one's might.
"Even the God King, Quasi-Emperor reincarnated, didn't give me this sense of danger..."
Li Hao's eyes trembled slightly. "Could this person be the reincarnation of some Great Emperor?"
Although he had heard of the reincarnation of the Great Emperor before, and had even fought against the reincarnation of the Great Emperor in the battles of other Heavenly Prodigy, most of those reincarnations of the Great Emperor were just a wisp of the remnant soul of the Emperor Venerable, and did not even inherit the complete memories of their previous lives. Therefore, although they performed exceptionally well, they were still suppressed and killed by the Heavenly Prodigy of the time.
But the Black-robed Youth before him seemed different from all of them.
"It seems that those who can come to the Ninth Heavenly Domain are indeed not simple."
Li Hao took a deep look, memorized the Aura of the Black-robed Youth, and without lingering, passed him and continued flying forward.
They were about to clash, but the battlefield wasn't here; it was on the Ascension Path.
On the lake, the Black-robed Youth watched Li Hao leave and slowly withdrew his gaze. His previously numb and indifferent heart suddenly became more lively, as if he had found some enjoyment.
"The Ascension Path awaits you."
He Whispers, then continued walking slowly forward with his hands behind his back.
Although they walked slowly, each step they took covered hundreds of feet in an instant, and in the blink of an eye they were out of the Lake, moving at an extremely fast speed.
Li Hao continued his hunt and clearing, and along the way he saw some other groups of people, a dozen or so of them, hunting Chaos Dao Seed. However, their Aura were noticeably weaker, and judging from their Mastery the Chaos Law, they had not yet Refinement Twenty-Three Chaos Laws.
Therefore, even with a dozen people working together, hunting down Chaos Dao Seed here is extremely difficult.
Li Hao glanced at it, ignored it, and continued walking.
As he continued to hunt and exterminate, the number of Chaos Dao Seed in the Ninth Heavenly Domain was rapidly decreasing.
Meanwhile, after Li Hao and the Divine Venerable fought and left, Xue Fei waited for a while. Seeing that the Divine Venerable had not returned, she did not wait any longer and left the place to hunt down the Chaos Dao Seed alone.
"Both of them unleashed their full potential; they are both formidable opponents capable of fighting me. Grandmother was right after all. If one encounters a lone wolf in the Ninth Heavenly Domain, they all possess extraordinary strength."
Xue Fei's eyes were solemn. Having witnessed the battle between Li Hao and the Divine Venerable, her original arrogance gradually subsided. She realized that there were always higher realms to conquer, and although she was from the Ancient Immortal Clan, it seemed that she might not be able to sweep through this place.
Compared to the Human Race boy's outstanding performance, her brilliance was overshadowed.
"However, their Domain Artifact are damaged, so it seems they are no longer qualified to be enemies on the Ascension Path."
Xue Fei shook her head and hurried forward without waiting for the Divine Venerable, who was merely a temporary teammate she had brought along to hunt Chaos Dao Seed more quickly.
If we stop now and wait for the other party, we'll be putting the cart before the horse.
Two days Past in the blink of an eye.
Li Hao had already thoroughly swept through the Ninth Heavenly Domain, encountering many other Heavenly Prodigy along the way. However, Li Hao did not try to seize their fortuitous opportunity; instead, he silently bypassed them and continued hunting other Chaos Dao Seed.
If they find it, that's their skill; if they don't, Li Hao will gladly accept it all.
"I've heard that the Ascension Path appears anywhere within Ninth Heavenly Domain Heavenly Domain, but I wonder if it has appeared yet?"
"However, I've heard that the Ascension Path only takes three days. I still have eight days left. If I stay for three days, I can spend another five days watching the Elder Qi play chess."
Li Hao Dark Dao to himself.
Thinking about this, he felt a sense of satisfaction.
He immediately arrived at the depths of the Endless Heavenly Domain, where he released his Divine Sense and called out, "Elder Qi, this junior wishes to observe the game for a few more days. I hope you will grant my request."
As he spoke, he bowed deeply to the Void.
He believed that with the Elder Qi's strength, even if they said they were not as powerful as the Immortal Emperor, they should still be able to hear him no matter where he spoke in the Ninth Heavenly Domain, even if they were only at the Quasi-Emperor Realm.
Sure enough, not long after Li Hao finished speaking, the Void in front of him began to blur, and a Bamboo Grove path stretched out.
"Since we're kindred spirits, come on in."
The Elder Qi's aged voice came with a cheerful laugh.
Li Hao was overjoyed and followed the Bamboo Grove path. Soon he saw the Thatched Cottage, the Elder Er playing chess in front of it, and the big black dog.
When the big black dog saw Li Hao, it stretched its neck and looked at him. Li Hao could clearly see Anger and resentment in its eyes.
Li Hao walked Past, Elder Qi laughed, "You've hunted quite a few Chaos Dao Seed these past two days, which has really infuriated this little guy."
Li Hao glanced at the big black dog. This dog was considered the strongest Chaos Dao Seed in the Ninth Heavenly Domain. He Dao Body how much Heavenly Dao Power it contained.
Seeing Li Hao's expression, the big black dog's eyes suddenly changed from resentment to wariness, glaring at Li Hao with a tense and angry look, as if to say, "What do you want to do?"
Seeing its nervous appearance, Li Hao abandoned his thoughts. After all, it was the Elder Er's beloved dog, and he naturally couldn't hunt it down.
"I didn't expect you to have received Daoyuan's True Disciple. Kid, practice hard and try to surpass Daoyuan."
The Elder Ba, with their backs to Li Hao, didn't turn around, but suddenly spoke.
Li Hao was stunned. Hearing him refer to "that kid Daoyuan" repeatedly, he was speechless. He didn't know how old his Master was, but he was at least 100,000 years old. After all, Dao Source Immortal Emperor was Immortal Emperor who survived the Ancient Demon War Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Catastrophe.
But the other person's tone suggested they were just a junior, treating me the same as they did in their eyes.
Thinking that Elder Er were born from the same source as the Chaos, Li Hao gave a wry smile and said, "Senior is right, I will do my best."
"Snort."
The Elder Ba snorted coldly and continued Chess.
Li Hao knew that the earlier battle outside had not been hidden from the Elder Er, so he asked curiously, "Seniors, do you know where the Heavenly Path will appear?"
"That depends on the will of Heavenly Dao. If Heavenly Dao intends to play tricks, it might set it in the Ninth Heavenly Domain."
The Elder Qi said with a smile.
Li Hao was speechless. If that were true, then most people who came here would probably never see the Heavenly Path, let alone Ascension Path.
"Since you've come to watch the game, then focus on watching. If you have other things on your mind, then leave."
The Elder Ba said in a calm tone.
Upon hearing this, Li Hao immediately regained his composure and replied, "This junior has come to observe the game."
