Chapter 853: Chapter 173: That Sword, Reflecting All Heavens (Minimum Guarantee +4K Additional 2)_6

The Sword Master gazed deeply at the youth, his initial fondness for Li Hao stemming from the latter’s temperament. Although he recognized Li Hao’s extraordinary talent, as a Saint who had reached the pinnacle of cultivation, he had his own path to pursue. The monstrous talents of others could not sway him. But now, he felt astonished, even his own Sword Dao seemed to be influenced.

Every Swordsman is in pursuit of the strongest sword, and now, that strongest sword seems to be in the hands of the youth, in his grasp, in his heart!

It was a Sword Dao that belonged solely to him, where he reigned supreme!

This must be the ultimate expression of Sword Dao…

To sever everything, to annihilate everything, until reaching the origin of the Sword Dao!

As the Sword Qi surged and gradually dissipated upon the Array, the hushed assembly, like ice and snow melting away, was followed by a series of almost screaming gasps.

Everyone was shocked, feeling a spine-tingling thrill – what swordsmanship was that? And what kind of power!

At this moment, no one spared another glance at the defeated Bai Yuan; all eyes were concentrated on the youth, on his hand.

Li Hao, meanwhile, effortlessly spun a sword flower, sheathing his glory.

For him, this battle was over.

Opposite him, Bai Yuan fell from his Dharma Aspect, not weakened, but having his Dharma Aspect forcibly shattered, his power dissipated. Though he could gather strength from the Heaven and Earth Vein, it would require time.

That Li Hao did not pursue his victory at this moment was proof enough of his mercy.

Bai Yuan stumbled to the ground, his eyes vacant. He stared blankly at the youth opposite him.

In his mind, the numbers on the Bone-Reflecting Mirror suddenly appeared.

28 years old…

Is this really something a 28-year-old could have cultivated?!

Bai Yuan’s mouth twitched slightly, for the first time feeling a sense of despair and lamentation. Suddenly he understood why some people, upon seeing him, would show a look of despair – this was what it felt like.

It was the sensation of wanting to pursue, yet never being able to catch up.

“What Dao are you cultivating?”

Recalling Li Hao’s previous words, Bai Yuan couldn’t help but ask.

If it’s just a matter of cultivation, it couldn’t be this fast unless the other’s Dao is extraordinary.

“Still exploring it, it’s my own Dao,” replied Li Hao calmly.

Bai Yuan was taken aback. His own Dao?

A hint of confusion appeared in his eyes. Could it be that his own Dao was flawed? Otherwise, why couldn’t he, known throughout All Heavens, defeat a 28-year-old youngster?

With a forlorn look in his eyes, he spoke no more and turned to leave the arena dejectedly.

This battle was won by Li Hao.

Following the announcement by Source Ancestor Sacred Land, countless cheers erupted. Although the outcome was known, it was only after the announcement that the previously repressed excitement fully burst forth.

So strong, is this the monster renowned among All Heavens Supreme Saints?!

Three battles, three victories, all against Direct Disciples of Saints, and with three different kinds of power!

Everyone knew beforehand that Li Hao’s Dao Domain was strong, to the Extreme Realm. But then they realized his Dharma Aspect power was even more terrifying, able to suppress the Direct Disciple of the Mixed Heaven Sacred Land Saint. Now, Li Hao’s Sword Dao drew even more formidable and attentive gazes.

From fist to sword, to Dao Domain, it seemed there were no flaws, no weaknesses!

Moreover, all were cultivated to the topmost level, a seemingly impenetrable monster!

Countless people were cheering; the entire Heavenly Origin Realm was boiling with excitement. The name Haotian had now thoroughly resonated throughout, making people from all areas remember and recognize this youth famous throughout All Heavens.

Li Hao saw strands of Incense Fire Power drifting over and gathering upon him.

With the battle concluded, even without being first in Incense Fire, it wouldn’t take long, given his current fame, to draw in countless spontaneous offerings of Incense Fire!

Li Hao stepped down and returned to his waiting area seat to await the second battle.

The struggle for the top ten among the top hundred required each person to fight ten rounds; a victory grants one point, and the rankings are determined by points. If there are more than ten people, they continue to compete; if fewer, the rankings are sorted by points.

“Is that guy really 28 years old? It feels like 200 years couldn’t yield such practice.”

“Sword Dao, Extreme Realm, physical refinement, how did he achieve this?”

“Could it be starting from infancy?”

“Even that’s not enough; those who are reincarnated Saints, one might say, have been cultivating since their previous life, can’t even compare.”

Yan Qingchuan and Tian Wujie were also shocked by Li Hao’s sword strike. It turned out that when they fought with him, he was still hiding such a powerful move. It seemed a bit exaggerated.

Moreover, it was still unknown whether Li Hao had other techniques he hadn’t used yet, or if this was his true limit.

After all, up to this point, no one had forced him to display the unity of his Dao Domain Dharma Form and his unique Sword Dao.

It wasn’t long before Yan Qingchuan and Tian Wujie also took the stage.

But although their clash was intense, those who had seen Li Hao fight with Bai Yuan could no longer get excited.

In the end, Yan Qingchuan won with a slight advantage.

Soon after, the first round of confrontations ended, followed by the second round of selections.

This time, to everyone’s surprise, the opponent matched to Li Hao turned out to be Lin Zhuo.

Another Direct Disciple.

“What kind of luck does Haotian have, meeting the direct disciples of Supreme Saints one after another?”

“Could it be some sort of inside story, is it possible that the Holy Lands of the Supreme Saints are secretly uniting to suppress him?”

“That’s impossible, it’s just a coincidence. The previous top hundred had intentionally suppressed him; this random pairing can’t be faked.”

Many were discussing, but most tended to trust the Supreme Saints. Li Hao was strong, but after all, he was only at the Dao Law Realm, a minor character. To be targeted by a Supreme Saint was already exaggerated enough, let alone many Supreme Saints conspiring against him, which would be laughable.

Li Hao was also somewhat surprised. Was this a matter of luck?

He slightly raised his eyebrows and glanced at the Buddha Venerate.

But the Buddha Venerate was indifferent, watching the battlefield, no longer paying attention to Li Hao as he had during the top hundred battle.

Li Hao withdrew his gaze. Was he overthinking?

However, no matter what, even if it was some unknown method at play, even if he met the disciples of All Heavens Supreme Saints, he didn’t care.

After all, he came here to fight for the first place. As such, he would have to defeat everyone sooner or later to take the title of number one under All Heavens; it was just a matter of time.

Soon, the second round of confrontations began.

As the battles proceeded one after another, before long, it was time for the clash between Li Hao and Lin Zhuo.

Without waiting long, Li Hao still ascended the battlefield just as before.

However, Lin Zhuo was not like Bai Yuan, who appeared leisurely; Lin Zhuo followed closely behind Li Hao as soon as he stepped onto the stage.
