Chapter 395: Devouring the Supreme Sage (8K) (Part 2)
But there was no doubt that the Heavenly Saint here was indeed killed, and the death was thorough!
"This physical body, this Soul Spirit, even if there are other sparks of life, they are extremely weak and can no longer pose a threat..."
Li Hao's eyes flickered. Once he left the Ancient Hall, he would seek Old Feng's help to divine whether the other party left any sparks of life.
If there were, the other party would likely try to spread their cultivation, which would bring a lot of trouble.
"If my strength could advance further, even a Primordial Ancestor would not be a threat, and spreading this news would be no issue. Just like the Primordial Ancestor's Seven Tribulations Imperial Weapon, the only one in the All Heavens, everyone covets it, but no one dares to seize it..."
"The god king was besieged by the Sages, ultimately because he attracted covetous eyes but lacked the power to deter them. If one possesses the power to intimidate the All Heavens, then covetous eyes and spying will be of no concern."
Li Hao thought to himself.
Strong beings walking in the light are bound to attract the attention and covetous eyes of many, and this is a common occurrence.
He glanced around. The battle had shattered two ancient mountains.
The battle traces here could not be erased in a short time, so he had to leave as quickly as possible and erase his presence.
Li Hao turned and hurried back to the place where he had been teleported. Now, only the Dragon Saint remained, and he had nothing to fear.
As he traveled, Li Hao felt his body undergoing constant changes, his flesh and blood seemingly splitting and transforming, continuously releasing terrifying Power.
His fleshly saintly path became even more robust and perfect.
Li Hao didn’t fly at full speed but instead strolled leisurely through the air.
A walk after a meal aids digestion.
The enormous physical body of the Huntian Sage had been devoured by Li Hao, and all of its Saint Path had been absorbed by him.
“This is... the Supreme Saint Path...”
Li Hao felt the Heavenly Saint’s Saint Path within him. The Supreme Saint Path, the Great Dao of Strength, could enhance power to its ultimate limit.
Having ascended through his physical body, he already surpassed other Sages. Now, with the absorption of the Supreme Saint Path, his power had made a significant leap. Even in a pure power confrontation with a Supreme Sage, he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.
Moreover, his physical body was undergoing a transformation, continuously growing stronger.
Li Hao took out the Achievement and tried to cut his hand, but it couldn’t break the skin. It was like using a dull knife on cowhide; even with force, it only left a shallow white mark.
Li Hao put away the Achievement and picked up the battle saber, an Imperial Weapon. This Imperial Weapon had a consciousness, but after witnessing Li Hao cook and eat the Heavenly Saint, and being subjected to the Chaos Divine Fire, it felt as though it was melting. Now, it was submissive, sending out thoughts of servility to Li Hao.
Li Hao didn’t intend to replace his Achievement with this saber. Although it was a knife, changing the shape of an Imperial Weapon at the Dao Tribulation level wasn’t difficult.
Li Hao gripped the handle and sliced his hand, leaving a blood mark.
Li Hao frowned slightly. It seemed that while his physical body had improved, it still hadn’t reached the level of a Six Tribulations Imperial Weapon.
However, the blade had cut to the bone, indicating that it was at least a Five Tribulations Imperial Weapon.
Many Sages in All Heavens couldn’t even produce a Three Tribulations Imperial Weapon. Even some ancient Three Calamities Sages only had Two Tribulations Imperial Weapons.
Heavenly and earthly treasures and other scarce resources were controlled by Supreme Sages, just as they were by the nobility in Divine Dynasties. All scarce resources were held by the top few elites.
“Other than Supreme Sages, no Sages could harm me even if they attacked me with all their might...”
Li Hao’s eyes flickered. Although he considered Supreme Sages his rivals, he was still a First Calamity Saint. Achieving this level was already quite terrifying.
Li Hao picked up the fragment and examined it closely. He hadn’t had the chance to look at it closely before. Now he saw that the fragment was terrifyingly bright, with not a speck of dust on its edge.
He lightly ran it over his arm, and it cut through like butter.
Li Hao couldn’t help but marvel. No wonder the Huntian Sage had fallen here; a physical body that was already invincible had met such a terrifying weapon.
Li Hao put the battle saber away, planning to disassemble it later and feed it to his Achievement.
This battle saber had accompanied the Huntian Sage for a long time and might have its own will and emotions. It was best to destroy it.
A warrior must have complete trust in their weapon.
Li Hao hid the fragment in his sleeve. For now, it was the strongest Divine Weapon he possessed.
As he returned, the Supreme Sage’s physical body and flesh continued to digest slowly within Li Hao. He estimated that once fully digested, it would further enhance his physical body.
He passed over ancient mountains and returned to the place where he had been teleported.
It was a ruined hall, covered in dust, with a bamboo grove and a well behind it. A figure stood by the well, radiating a crimson glow.
Sensing Li Hao’s presence, the figure turned around. It was the Dragon Saint.
However, the Dragon Saint looked strange, his expression twisted in pain and filled with savagery, as though he was enduring something.
But when he saw Li Hao, the savagery and pain in his eyes were momentarily stunned.
Clearly, he hadn’t expected the Huntian Sage to fail in his pursuit and allow Li Hao to live.
He knew the reason the Huntian Sage had pursued Li Hao: to use him as a Flesh Pill to help himself ascend to the Physical Body Divine Realm!
Once he reached that stage, he would be on par with the Primordial Ancestor and the god king.
He hadn’t tried to stop or sabotage the Huntian Sage for a simple reason: besides a bit of past friendship, he had sensed something in this hall. But before they could explore it thoroughly, Li Hao had appeared here mysteriously.
Huntian Sage went to hunt down Li Hao, which would allow him to explore the Ancient Hall. It was a mutually beneficial arrangement.
With the Primordial Ancestor and the god king already present, the addition of Huntian Sage wouldn't make much of a difference. The opponent wouldn't reach the Divine Realm and immediately turn on him.
"You actually came back alive and managed to shake off the Supreme Sage?"
Dragon Saint looked at Li Hao with a mix of surprise and suspicion.
This was impossible. Could it be that the opponent's Body Movement Techniques had entered the Dao?
He couldn't think of any other reason why the opponent could have escaped the Supreme Sage.
Li Hao had no intention of explaining. While Dragon Saint was still in shock, Li Hao struck out, the fragment in his hand slicing through the air in an instant.
Coming to the Ancient Hall meant a life-and-death struggle. If there was an opportunity and a chance, even if Li Hao was compassionate, others would still try to kill him. The only way to survive was to strike first.
Kindness placed oneself in danger and handed the initiative to others. It was foolish.
Pfft!
In an instant, the fragment, guided by Return to the Abyss, pierced through Dragon Saint's head.
Although Dragon Saint was a Supreme Sage of the Dragon Race, the strongest of his kind in the world, his physical body was not as formidable as Huntian Sage's. His head was cleanly penetrated, and blood and flesh exploded.
But in the next moment, dragon scales appeared all over his body, and his Soul Spirit reappeared on his broken neck, shouting in shock and anger:
"What kind of weapon is this?"
He was stunned. Apart from other Supreme Sages, his physical body's defensive power was unparalleled in the Heavens. Yet, it had been pierced through effortlessly. He felt that this terrifying weapon could easily destroy his physical body.
Fortunately, the weapon lacked tribulation power. It was sharp enough to be a Seven Tribulations Imperial Weapon, but it lacked the formidable tribulation power that would have caused his entire physical body to explode and his Saint Path to waver.
Li Hao didn't respond; he only continued to manipulate the fragment, launching a series of attacks.
After cooking Huntian Sage, his Cooking Dao broke through the Ninth Rank bottleneck and reached the Tenth Rank, allowing him to gain experience, with the cooking of Huntian Sage granting him a massive amount of experience, totaling two million.
The full experience value for the Tenth Rank was ten million.
In other words, cooking four more Supreme Sage-level ingredients would fill his experience bar.
At this moment, Dragon Saint was a clear two million experience points in Li Hao's eyes.
Li Hao didn't know what realm he would reach after filling the Tenth Rank experience bar?
The legendary Immortal Deity?
If so, that would truly be... a great motivation!
Hum!
Dragon Saint's Dragon Emperor Dao Domain instantly expanded. Within his Dao Domain, thousands of dragon roars echoed, shaking the heavens and the earth.
The deafening roars were filled with supreme authority, as if the ruler of the universe had issued a thunderous command.
Since ancient times, the Dragon Race had been one of the strongest beings in the universe.
Li Hao felt his spirit tremble, his blood flow accelerating, and an inexplicable urge to tremble and prostrate himself. This was the holy shadow of the Dao resonating from the opponent.
Li Hao immediately entered the Transcendental State, his consciousness sinking and merging with the heavens and the earth.
This overwhelming intimidation passed through his body, dispersing like a gentle breeze, finding no resistance.
Li Hao quickly maneuvered the fragment, aiming to separate Dragon Saint's body from his Soul Spirit, just as he had done with Huntian Sage.
However, he was not familiar with the structure of Dragon Saint's body. The previous success in instantly killing Huntian Sage's physical body was due to the cumulative experience from repeated attacks.
"Such a commotion, damn it!"
Li Hao's face darkened. The broken blade rapidly cut through Dragon Saint's body, slicing it into pieces, following the bones and tracing the body's meridians.
Compared to Li Hao, the Dragon Saint was even more terrified. He tried to resist, but found that his Dragon Emperor Dao Domain could not restrain the blade at all. He shifted to his hardest scales, hoping to block the attack, but it was only slightly effective, barely providing any relief.
His pride, the Dragon Bone, was as ineffective as mud, offering no resistance at all.
"Could it be that you... are still alive?"
The Dragon Saint regenerated his physical body while dodging, his eyes filled with shock and horror.
Huntian Sage had gone to kill Li Hao, and now Li Hao had returned, wielding a terrifying weapon. It was hard not to think that Huntian Sage had been killed by Li Hao!
But Huntian Sage was a Supreme Sage, a Supreme Sage who could even face off against the Primordial Ancestor without being easily slain.
Pfft, pfft, pfft!
The residual blade continuously sliced through the Dragon Saint's physical body, and although his body healed rapidly, its structure became increasingly familiar to Li Hao with each cut.
The Dragon Saint was both shocked and enraged. Instead of attacking Li Hao, he suddenly turned and charged towards the well.
The well appeared small, like an ordinary household well, but the passage inside was vast.
As the Dragon Saint entered, he revealed his true form as a Dragon Race Supreme Sage. His body stretched for dozens of miles, like a mountain range, blocking out the sky and sun. A single dragon eye was as large as an imperial palace, exuding an overwhelming presence.
He plunged into the well, which was filled with fresh, crimson blood. As his body crashed in, it caused waves that towered tens of thousands of feet high, the blood surging violently.
Li Hao rushed to the well's mouth and saw the Dragon Saint thrashing in the blood, his body radiating a violent and bloodthirsty aura that made one's hair stand on end.
"What kind of blood is this?"
Li Hao was alarmed. The well in this dilapidated hall contained blood, and it seemed to possess a strange power.
He watched as the Dragon Saint's body, bathed in blood, emitted a blood light from the gaps between his scales, appearing even more ferocious. His dragon eyes turned crimson, the glow in his pupils terrifyingly clear.
Just as Li Hao was about to manipulate the residual blade to test the changes in his opponent, a faint sensation from Heaven and Earth suddenly came to him.
Li Hao's expression changed. Someone was approaching quickly and stealthily?
The aura was very familiar— it was the Primordial Ancestor!
Thinking of the Primordial Ancestor, Li Hao recalled the Seven Tribulations Imperial Weapon in his possession, which could awe the entire heavens. It was an Imperial Weapon forged from over a thousand heavenly and earthly treasures, extremely powerful.
Moreover, the Primordial Ancestor himself was not on the level of a Supreme Sage; he was at the Incense Deity Realm.
Li Hao's expression darkened. If the Primordial Ancestor came here, the Dragon Saint would certainly mention the Supreme Sage, and with the thoughts of these Supreme Sages, they could easily deduce some things.
He scanned the area, wanting to leave temporarily. His gaze fell on a statue in the courtyard.
The statue resembled the Ancient Hall's master.
At this moment, the statue emitted a faint power fluctuation.
This power was somewhat familiar to Li Hao, as if it was the Immortal Qi he had absorbed into his body.
Bang!
The Dragon Saint burst out of the blood-filled well, his massive body coiling into the air.
The courtyard appeared to be the size of an ordinary residence, but with the Dragon Saint's body spanning dozens of miles, the wind and pressure it generated had no effect on the courtyard.
Go!
Li Hao did not engage in further combat and turned to leave.
But suddenly, he paused. A familiar and intense aura was approaching from the path he had previously used to escape the ancient mountain.
It was a god king!
Li Hao's expression changed. At the same time, the Dragon Saint roared and spewed a mouthful of crimson blood flame.
The blood flame swept across the entire courtyard.
In this sea of blood flame, Li Hao noticed that the bamboo leaves in the courtyard only slightly curled, not immediately turning to ash.
A faint silver-gray light appeared on the walls, blocking the heat of the blood flame and protecting the hall.
From the blood flame, Li Hao felt an intense, bloodthirsty emotion. This emotion surged into his mind, forcing its way in and causing a feeling of nausea.
