Chapter 366: That One Sword, Reflecting All Heavens (4K Guaranteed Update 2) (Part 2)
"What a waste of a good pair of eyes!"
Qingjiu suddenly thrust his spear, which contained two types of Dao Power. It was impossible to dodge or evade, and it struck instantly, causing Hao Yue Holy Son to fall from the sky.
Qingjiu didn't pursue further, but instead retracted his spear and stood still.
In this battle, Qingjiu emerged victorious, showcasing his formidable power that could challenge the top ten, and also making a lasting impression on many.
Li Hao watched Hao Yue Holy Son's defeat, his face dark and gloomy. He couldn't help but shake his head. Hao Yue Holy Son had tried to cultivate the Sun and Moon Great Dao, using the sun and moon to reflect heaven and earth, and also wanted to sever his emotions and desires to align with the indifference of heaven and earth.
But heaven and earth are not indifferent; they are, in fact, full of emotion.
That's why there are autumn leaves and spring blooms, and flowers wither and bloom again.
When winter snow buries all things, spring will come.
Flowers grow and wither, and in the following year, they will be reborn under the spring sun.
The tenderness of heaven and earth encompasses all things, like the silent nourishment of spring rain. When the birds and beasts of spring recklessly trample the flowers and grass, there will be summer rain, autumn frost, and winter snow, making the birds roost and the beasts hibernate. This is also a form of gentle care.
Thinking of this, a faint light appeared in Li Hao's eyes. He now had his own understanding of all beings and heaven and earth, and this momentary insight brought him closer to his inner essence.
The first battle ended, but both Hao Yue Holy Son and Qingjiu performed well. Qingjiu was a pleasant surprise, and Hao Yue Holy Son's performance also matched his Top 100 status.
Next, others took the stage one by one.
As the battles continued, Li Hao saw Lin Qingying also win. Her opponent came from another Minor World and was slightly weaker than Hao Yue, so she defeated him easily.
"It's Hao Tian's turn now!"
"Finally, this match is here."
Many people were watching the lineup, and while the previous battles were exciting, they all saw Li Hao's match against Bai Yuan as the main event.
Now, it was finally time for it to begin.
Although there were still other battles to come, this one was undoubtedly the most anticipated.
When he heard the call from the Sage of the Primordial Ancestor Holy Land, Li Hao didn't hesitate and walked toward the Battle Platform.
After he took his place, Bai Yuan also moved, walking to the Battle Platform at a leisurely pace.
As the array was activated, the match began.
"I thought we wouldn't meet until the top ten battles, but here we are. How exciting!"
Bai Yuan smiled, but his smile was less frivolous and more serious than before.
After all, Li Hao's previous performance was worthy of the title of prodigy and couldn't be underestimated.
Underestimating him would be disrespectful to his cultivation.
"…Hmm."
Li Hao didn't know how to respond, so he just nodded.
Bai Yuan laughed, but his smile quickly faded as he slowly drew his sword. Although he used a sword, he hadn't apprenticed himself to the Sword Ancestor Sanctuary.
While the Sword Ancestor Sanctuary was the most coveted place for swordsmen, other Holy Lands also had Sword Dao secret manuals, just in varying quantities.
"Let me see your Dao Domain and Dharma Image Unity!"
Bai Yuan said, and his Qi Power suddenly surged. The Heaven-Earth Meridian gathered behind him, and a towering Heaven and Earth Dharma Image appeared.
He started with a Full Power Eruption!
He knew that if he didn't show his true strength, there would be no point in facing Li Hao, as the Eternal Dao Domain couldn't be taken lightly.
Li Hao watched quietly, knowing that to see his power, he needed to have the corresponding qualifications.
As Bai Yuan's aura climbed, his Dao Domain also manifested, and it was a staggering 118 layers!
These Dao Domains intertwined, overlapping to form a brilliant golden Imperial Dao Domain!
"The more people who know my name, the stronger I become!"
Famous House Cultivation primarily revolves around fame. Their power source is their reputation, much like how the Heaven Stealing Holy Land steals things to increase power. Famous House devises ways to gain fame, which is why Bai Yuan was the first to step onto the stage yesterday, declaring his bold slogan. All of this was to enhance his reputation.
This time, facing off against Li Hao aligns perfectly with his intentions. Regardless of the outcome, this battle will undoubtedly draw significant attention. If he wins, he will shake the heavens, rising to prominence by trampling his opponent!
As the Imperial Dao Domain revealed itself, a dignified and majestic aura erupted from Bai Yuan. He merged his body with the Dharma Image, and from the Dharma Image's palm, a Divine Sword forged from the laws of the Famous House condensed!
This sword was grand and mighty, its power boundless, like an ancient emperor awakening, ready to cleave the heavens and earth apart.
Faced with such overwhelming power, countless spectators in the audience turned pale.
In the previous Top 100 Battle, various Holy Sons, intimidated by Bai Yuan's reputation, did not challenge him. Apart from those from the Upper Three Realms who had heard of his strength, most of the people in the heavens only knew that he was a direct disciple of the Supreme Sage. Now, they truly witnessed Bai Yuan's power!
Compared to yesterday's Yan Qingchuan and Tian Wujie, he was even more formidable and terrifying!
"Fame is nothing but a burden. Discard it, and find your true self!"
Li Hao's expression remained calm as he looked at the imperial Dharma Image radiating its majestic aura. He shook his head, for this path was far from the Dao he believed in.
A Sage cultivates their own Dao and firmly believes that their Dao is the strongest in all the heavens. If not, it is only because they have not comprehended its essence.
Li Hao also believed in his own Dao, for only his Dao was the Great Dao!
Without this belief, he could not cultivate or ascend, nor could he condense the Saint Path!
With this belief, he felt a natural disdain for the Saint Path that contradicted his Dao Will.
"An empty shell, that is just what the heavens have bestowed upon you, not your true self!"
Li Hao raised his hand, not using his Dao Domain, but summoning the Achievement Sword from the Heavenly Earth Space.
"This sword is named Achievement. I will use Achievement to shatter your fame!"
Li Hao's eyes suddenly became sharp and luminous, a fierce light erupting from within them. He did not reveal his Dao Domain or display his Dharma Image. He stood tall in the arena, his robes fluttering in the wind.
Only the Heaven-Earth Meridian appeared behind him, drawing in the vast energy of the heavens and earth, condensing it within his body.
"You want to break my Dao with a sword?!"
Bai Yuan, seeing Li Hao's actions, his previously battle-ready expression turned cold and stern. Feeling insulted, he said in a low, menacing voice:
"Then don't blame me for killing you by mistake!!"
As he spoke, his Dharma Image erupted with ultimate brilliance, and the imperial Divine Sword in his hand emitted a golden light that seemed to turn the clouds in the sky into golden mist. He swung the sword down at Li Hao with a mighty force.
At that moment, Li Hao also raised his sword.
The towering Dharma Image and the intimidating imperial Divine Sword appeared to him as nothing more than a scene, a painting.
And his task was to tear apart this painting he did not like.
Unique Self Sword Technique, Sole Self Supreme!!
Bang!!
A dazzling sword beam emerged, instantly illuminating the heavens and earth, flashing through the eyes of countless spectators.
The world-shaking sword light, wielded by Li Hao, grew with the wind, instantly transforming into a colossal form as it slashed directly at the golden imperial Divine Sword.
That Dharma Image's Divine Sword, containing a hundredfold power and Bai Yuan's Sword Dao Will, was now severed in one stroke!
The Unique Self Sword Technique had absorbed numerous Sword Dao. If Yan Qingchuan had used three Dao Arts to Enter the Dao yesterday, Li Hao's Unique Self Sword Technique had absorbed countless Sword Dao.
Only by comprehending numerous Sword Dao could one truly cut through them!
Only by experiencing the splendor of all the heavens and still holding onto one's own sword could one truly be called Sole Self, without losing the true heart of the Sword Dao!
A thunderous boom echoed as the sword, slicing upward, emitted a ten-thousand-foot-long sword light. Not only did it sever the imperial Divine Sword, but it also split the massive Dharma Image behind it into two!
The Dharma Image shattered, and the Sword Light continued, striking directly against the Array. This Array, condensed by a Sage, emitted a rumbling vibration.
If this were a Minor World Holy Land quota battle, with an Array condensed by a Semi-Saint, it would have been split and severed directly by this sword!
But even now, with a Sage's Array, it still trembled under the sword. This scene plunged the entire Tianyuan World into silence.
The countless people in the audience widened their eyes, staring intently at the scene, as if watching a slow-motion sequence of the ultimate moment!
That Sword Light was unstoppable, seemingly containing myriad Sword Dao, with only one ultimate cutting intent!
It cut through everything, shattered everything, and seemed unimpeded except for the indomitable Saint Path!!
Seeing this sword, many of the Sage Sons and Daughters who had advanced to the Top 100 in the waiting area were speechless, staring blankly, somewhat dazed.
Qiutian Law, dressed in a pristine silk-like garment, also showed a slight change in expression.
Lin Zhuo, who had previously wanted to challenge Li Hao, now had his pupils constricted, revealing shock.
The Hao Yue Holy Son was somewhat dazed; under that sword, he felt that even if he Cultivated the Sun and Moon Divine Sword, reflecting Heaven and Earth, he would still be severed!
It turned out that there was such a terrifying sword, one that even Heaven and Earth could not withstand!
Bian Ruxue was stunned, feeling as if her blood had frozen, and she almost forgot to breathe. In that moment, she seemed to glimpse the shadow of the ultimate sword technique!
Could the thing she pursued be in the hands of that Brother Hao?!
She suddenly felt her heart racing, her eyes slightly reddening.
Apart from them, the many Sages seated in the four directions also had their eyes become more serious.
They could see that this sword was incredibly powerful, and except for the Saint Path, nothing could block or suppress it.
"This youngster's sword..." Sword Master was slightly stunned, recognizing the power condensed within that sword. It was not just one Sword Dao, but a never-before-seen Sword Dao formed by cutting through multiple Sword Dao.
This Sword Dao was powerful and terrifying, and before it, all other Sword Dao seemed to lose their luster, fading into obscurity.
Including his own Heaven and Earth Sword Dao!
Sword Master gazed deeply at the young man. Previously, his affection for Li Hao was based on his character, and while he knew of his exceptional talent, as a Sage, he had already reached the pinnacle of Cultivation. Other people's monstrous talents did not affect him. But now, he felt genuinely amazed, and even his own Sword Dao was influenced.
Every swordsman seeks the strongest sword, and now, it seemed that the strongest sword was in the hands of that young man, in his heart!
It was a Sword Dao unique to him, a Sole Self-respecting Sword Dao!
This must be the ultimate form of Sword Dao...
Cutting through everything, shattering everything, until reaching the essence of Sword Dao!
As the Sword Qi stirred and gradually dissipated on the Array, the silent audience seemed to slowly thaw, followed by nearly shrieking exclamations.
Everyone was stunned, feeling a mix of fear and excitement that made their scalp tingle. What kind of sword technique was that? What kind of power!
At that moment, no one paid any more attention to the defeated Bai Yuan. All eyes were fixed on the young man, on his hand.
Li Hao casually formed a Sword Flower, putting away his achievement.
For him, this battle was over.
On the other side, Bai Yuan fell from his Dharma Image but did not hit the ground. His Dharma Image was forcibly broken, his power dissipated, and although he could still gather strength through the Heaven-Earth Meridian, it would take time.
Li Hao did not pursue him at this moment, clearly showing restraint.
Bai Yuan landed on the ground, his eyes dazed, staring blankly at the young man opposite him.
In his mind, he suddenly recalled the number on the Bone Reflection Mirror.
28 years old...
Could this be something a 28-year-old could Cultivate?!
Bai Yuan's lips trembled slightly, feeling a sense of despair and sorrow for the first time. He suddenly understood why some people would look at him with eyes full of despair. It was this feeling of wanting to catch up but never being able to.
"What Dao are you Cultivating?"
Bai Yuan, unable to suppress his curiosity, asked Li Hao.
If it were just about Cultivation speed, it would be impossible to achieve such a level unless his Dao was unique.
"I am still exploring my own Dao", Li Hao replied calmly.
Bai Yuan was taken aback. His own Dao?
A trace of confusion flickered in his eyes. Could it be that his Dao was flawed? Otherwise, why would he, already renowned throughout All Heavens, be defeated by a mere 28-year-old?
His gaze turned melancholic, and he didn't say another word. He turned and left the stage, his steps heavy with disappointment.
This battle was won by Li Hao.
As the Primordial Ancestor Holy Land announced the result, cheers erupted from the crowd. Even though everyone had expected the outcome, the previously suppressed excitement finally burst forth.
So strong—this was what the Monstrous figures who left their names in All Heavens were like?!
Three battles, three victories. All were Supreme Sage Personal Disciples, and he used three different Powers!
Initially, everyone knew that Li Hao's Dao Domain was incredibly strong, reaching the Ultimate Realm. Later, they discovered that his Dharma Image Power was even more terrifying, capable of suppressing the Supreme Sage Personal Disciple of the Huntian Holy Land. Now, Li Hao's Sword Dao was even more formidable and eye-catching.
From fists to swords, to Dao Domain, it seemed there were no flaws, no weaknesses!
Moreover, all of these were cultivated to the pinnacle of their respective levels, making him an almost flawless Monster!
The crowd erupted in cheers, and the entire Tianyuan World was in a frenzy. The name Hao Tian now resounded loudly, remembered and acknowledged by all, as the young man who had left his name in All Heavens.
Li Hao noticed wisps of Incense Power drifting toward him, gathering around his body.
Even without the first-place Incense, he believed that it wouldn't be long before his current fame attracted countless Incense Elders on their own accord.
Li Hao left the stage and returned to his waiting area, awaiting the second battle.
In the Top 100 Battle, each contestant needed to participate in ten rounds of combat. A victory earned one point, and the rankings were determined by the total points. If more than ten contestants had the same points, additional matches would be held. If fewer, the rankings would be based on the points.
"That guy, is he really 28 years old? It feels like even 200 years of cultivation wouldn't produce such a result."
"Sword Dao, Ultimate Realm, and a refined Physical Body—how does he manage it?"
"Could he have started cultivating from infancy?"
"Even that wouldn't be enough. Those Reincarnations of a Sage, who supposedly began cultivating in their previous lives, can't match him."
Yan Qingchuan and Tian Wujie were also shocked by Li Hao's sword. They realized that their opponent had been holding back a powerful ace during their previous battles, which was quite exaggerated.
Moreover, they didn't know if Li Hao had any other hidden techniques. Was this his true limit?
So far, no one had managed to force him to reveal his Dao Domain, Dharma Image, and the supreme Sword Dao Unity he had just displayed.
Soon, Yan Qingchuan and Tian Wujie also took the stage.
Although their battle was intense, those who had watched Li Hao's fight with Bai Yuan found it less exciting.
In the end, Yan Qingchuan won by a narrow margin.
The first round of matches concluded, and the second round of selections began.
To everyone's surprise, Li Hao's opponent this time was Lin Zhuo, another Personal Disciple.
"What kind of Channeling Qi is this Hao Tian using? Why does he keep facing Supreme Sage Personal Disciples?!"
"Could there be some underhanded dealings? Maybe the various Supreme Sage Holy Lands are secretly collaborating to suppress him?"
"That's unlikely. It's just a coincidence. In the previous Top 100 Battle, they did try to suppress him, but this random pairing can't be rigged."
Many people speculated, but most still trusted the Supreme Sages. Although Li Hao was strong, he was still just a Dao Law Realm figure, a minor character. It was already quite exaggerated for one Supreme Sage to target him, let alone multiple Supreme Sages working together. That would be laughable.
Li Hao was also surprised. Was this some kind of Channeling Qi relationship?
He raised an eyebrow and glanced at the Buddhist Venerable.
The Buddhist Venerable's gaze was indifferent, focused on the battlefield, not paying any particular attention to Li Hao as he had during the Top 100 Battle.
Li Hao retracted his gaze. Could it be that he was overthinking it?
Regardless, even if some unknown means were at play, he wasn't concerned. He had come here to vie for first place. If so, he would eventually have to defeat everyone to claim the top spot in All Heavens. It was just a matter of time.
The second round of matches began soon after.
As the battles progressed, it wasn't long before it was Li Hao's turn to face Lin Zhuo.
Li Hao didn't wait any longer and walked onto the Battle Platform as he had before.
Unlike Bai Yuan, who had taken his time, Lin Zhuo appeared promptly, stepping onto the stage right after Li Hao.
