Chapter 406: Holy Infant Finally Formed, Second Transcend to Immortality (Part 2)

Li Hao, hearing this, did not hesitate. He immediately activated the All Heavensstellar Vein.

In an instant, the area where he sat seemed to transform into a vast starry sky.

The light from 1,464 brilliant stars enveloped his body, followed by the most dazzling starlight.

This starlight brought a vast amount of power, pouring into Li Hao. In a short moment, Li Hao's aura surpassed that of Sage Mitian's disciple.

As Li Hao released ten streams of Immortal Power from his body, transforming them into a surging force of Heaven and Earth Power, the power around him immediately surpassed that of the Mitian Sage.

Then, under the Mitian Sage’s stunned gaze, Li Hao directed all this power into the Alchemy Furnace.

Although the Mitian Sage had said that more was better, Li Hao still held back a bit, using only ten streams of Immortal Power. If he were to release the thousand streams of Immortal Power within him, he feared the Immortal Pill might not be able to withstand it.

However, he currently couldn’t even release a thousand streams of Immortal Power. Earlier on the ancient path, Li Hao had tested his limits and found that even converting a hundred streams of Immortal Power into Heaven and Earth Power was already the limit of what he could control. Any more would cause a backlash, and he wouldn’t be able to handle it.

After all, he was still at the sage level, and this was partly due to his Flesh Ascension, as well as consuming the Huntian Sage’s demonic body, which enhanced his physical body on the ancient path. If it were any other sage, even ten streams of Immortal Power would likely have pushed them to their limit.

Boom!

As Li Hao’s power surged in, the crack in the Alchemy Furnace stopped, and at the same time, a rumbling sound erupted from within, as if something was breaking out of a shell.

A few moments later, a muffled, thunder-like rumble suddenly echoed!

The Mitian Sage suddenly looked up, his gaze seemingly piercing through the layers of arrays to the ceiling of the alchemical chamber, where clouds had gathered, clearly indicating a lightning tribulation!

"Is this... an immortal tribulation?"

Feeling the might of the lightning tribulation, the Mitian Sage’s pupils dilated, a sense of shock washing over him.

But he had been prepared for this.

He quickly activated the array outside the alchemical chamber. This time, it wasn’t he who would face the tribulation, but the Immortal Pill itself.

This tribulation belonged to the Immortal Pill!

With a sharp sound, the top of the Alchemy Furnace exploded open, and a Silver Light-infused Immortal Pill shot out, radiating endless rays of light and a fragrance ten times more intense than before.

The Immortal Pill broke through the array of the alchemical chamber, piercing through the roof, and soared into the sky.

Li Hao was somewhat surprised; this was his first time witnessing an Immortal Pill facing a tribulation.

Elixirs actually have tribulations too.

The Immortal Pill flew high into the sky, and at that moment, the lightning tribulation descended, striking the Immortal Pill and enveloping it. The thunder’s might spread, dimming the entire Holy Land.

Li Hao noticed that the lightning tribulation was not only powerful but also contained a trace of Immortal Power within the Raid Cloud. This Immortal Power was pure and comparable to the combined power of a hundred streams of his own Immortal Power.

Li Hao’s eyes flickered, and he couldn’t help but wonder if he could withstand this lightning tribulation. If he didn’t have Immortal Power within him, he would likely perish, and even other Supreme Sages wouldn’t be able to withstand it. However, with Immortal Power in his body, it would protect his bones, and as long as his bones remained, he could regenerate.

As the lightning tribulation’s thundering continued, the arrays prepared by the Mitian Sage were easily destroyed, but the Immortal Pill managed to withstand all the strikes.

Amidst the thunder, the Immortal Pill became even more radiant and lustrous, its silver glow blossoming.

After a moment, six strikes of lightning tribulation fell, and the Raid Cloud dissipated. The Immortal Pill still stood in the air, emitting a fragrance that, while less intense than before, had a profound and soul-penetrating aroma, making it unforgettable.

"Thank you, benefactor."

Suddenly, a clear voice echoed in Li Hao’s mind.

Li Hao was startled and looked around, finally focusing his gaze on the Immortal Pill. Was it speaking to him?

Li Hao was amazed.

At that moment, the Immortal Pill flashed with Silver Light, then traced a curve and flew away into the distance.

Sage Mitian was taken aback, but he quickly regained his composure and rushed to catch up. "No good, quickly seal off the Holy Land! The Immortal Pill is escaping!"

However, his reaction was still a step too late. The Immortal Pill vanished in the blink of an eye, leaving no trace of its scent.

All of this happened in an instant. When Li Hao came to his senses, he saw Sage Mitian standing there, his expression dazed.

Li Hao was also stunned. He hadn't expected the Immortal Pill to not only attract an immortal tribulation but to escape as well.

"Master..."

Beside him, Sage Mitian's Sage Disciple's throat moved, his expression confused.

Sage Mitian stood in a daze for a long time before he slowly came to his senses. He looked at the alchemical chamber's ceiling, which had been pierced, his eyes vacant.

The Immortal Pill, which he had painstakingly condensed, the only one in the entire All Heavens world, had escaped.

Even as a Supreme Sage, he had been unable to catch it.

Li Hao thought about the words the Immortal Pill had said before it escaped. His eyes flickered. Was the Immortal Pill thanking him because he had supplied the final burst of power?

However, the escape of the Immortal Pill was a significant loss.

Sage Mitian returned to the alchemical chamber, his eyes lifeless as he glanced at the alchemy furnace. Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he leaned over the furnace, reaching inside.

Soon, he pulled out three elixirs.

These elixirs shone with a lustrous glow, tiny dragon-like shadows swirling around them, emitting a delightful fragrance.

While they didn't match the Immortal Pill's scent, which had been etched into his bones, they were clearly extraordinary.

"Apparently, these are companion pills. Three of them. It seems the power I sent in was too much, and the Immortal Pill separated some of it out."

Sage Mitian mumbled to himself, his eyes brightening. He turned to look at Li Hao, his face showing both excitement and gratitude. "Heavenly Venerated Hao, thanks to your help, the Immortal Pill was successfully refined. I didn't have high hopes for this first attempt, but the result exceeded my expectations."

Li Hao smiled. "It's also thanks to your own alchemy skills, Senior."

"These companion Immortal Pills, though not as powerful as the Immortal Pill, are still among the world's top divine pills. I can feel a trace of Immortal Power within them, enough to let Feng and the others touch the threshold of Supreme Sage. Whether they can grasp it or not is up to them."

Sage Mitian put away two of the pills and handed one to Li Hao. "Take this one. This time, I owe you a favor."

Li Hao looked at the elixir and pushed it back. "I have no use for this elixir. I'm only at the first tribulation, and once I pass the third tribulation, I won't need this pill to become a Supreme Sage."

The others would use the Immortal Power within the elixir to touch the Heavenly Dao, but he could reach the Heavenly Dao through Transcendence to Immortality. Taking the pill would be a waste.

Moreover, given the special nature of his panel attributes, it was uncertain whether the elixir would even have any effect.

However, if he really wanted to take it, he could improve it and turn it into a dish, which would not only neutralize the elixir poison but also provide a delicious meal.

"This..."

Sage Mitian hadn't expected Li Hao to refuse such a valuable elixir. It was a rare opportunity to become a Supreme Sage, something any Sage would drool over.

However, Li Hao's confidence impressed him even more. His eyes showed a mix of admiration and reflection. "The Saints of the Thirty-Three Heavens have been cultivating for tens of thousands of years, some for hundreds of thousands. They are all nearing the end of their lives. It's rare to see such confidence like yours."

All Sages were once exceptional talents, full of vigor and ambition in their youth. But as their cultivation days grew longer, that vigor gradually faded, leaving only caution and calculation.

"Since that's the case, I'll keep this one for now. I have an incompetent disciple who could use it. If there are more companion pills next time, I'll give one to you."

Sage Mitian smiled. "Don't rush to refuse. Even if you don't use it yourself, you can give it to someone else. It's a top-tier trade item."

Li Hao nodded, thinking of Sword Master. "When will you refine another Immortal Pill next time?"

"Most of the auxiliary materials are almost used up. They are all rare herbs, and I need to prepare again. It might take a few years."

Sage Mitian said.

"Alright."

Li Hao replied. "If you need anything, just let me know."

Sage Mitian smiled and escorted Li Hao out of the alchemical chamber.

"Once they wake up, give them these two elixirs."

Sage Mitian led Li Hao back to the small courtyard and poured him a cup of tea.

After Li Hao finished his tea, he mentioned his intention to leave. He had stayed here long enough and wanted to explore other places.

Sage Mitian didn't try to persuade him to stay, knowing that Li Hao had many things to attend to.

"Whenever you have free time, remember to come and play a game of Go with me."

Sage Mitian said.

Li Hao nodded. His Chess Dao at the Eighth Rank was progressing slowly, and he needed to play against someone to gain experience. However, after playing with Sage Mitian these past few days, he had accumulated enough experience to reach the Ninth Rank. All he needed now was to grasp the mindset.

Li Hao bid farewell to Sage Mitian and then left with Sword Master.

"I've already discussed this with Sword Saint and Scholar Wen. While no one in Canglan World is mentioning your affairs, travelers from other minor worlds are still causing some issues."

Sword Master said to Li Hao, his eyes filled with concern.

Li Hao shook his head slightly and replied, "They cut off my incense offerings, but I will make them pay tenfold later."

Hearing Li Hao's words, Sword Master didn't press the matter further.

Li Hao accompanied Sword Master back to Canglan World. Returning to the first minor world he had visited in the Land of Sages, Li Hao couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia.

He sensed the divine blood mark he had left in Canglan Divine Dynasty. Using his divine sense, he discovered that his shrine statue was no longer there. Clearly, even if the people hadn't received the news, the emperor of the divine dynasty had already sensed the changing winds.

Li Hao couldn't help but scoff. It was typical for people to kick a man when he was down.

Fortunately, even if everyone turned against him, he wouldn't be crushed.

He immediately retracted the divine blood mark and then headed to the Sword Ancestor Holy Land.

His divine sense spread out, and Li Hao saw Master Alchemist Lin Shanhai and the others. They were still going about their usual routines, eating, drinking, and basking in the sun, as well as sorting through medicinal herbs.

However, he didn't see Lin Qingying's figure and couldn't help but ask Sword Master about it. Sword Master shook his head, indicating he didn't know.

Li Hao then went to find Sword Saint.

"She's traveling outside, saying she wants to wander around", Sword Saint said, his expression complex.

He had been present when Primordial Ancestor and the god king discussed matters with the other saints. Afterward, Primordial Ancestor and the god king forced the saints to swear on the Saint Path not to inform Li Hao of the news.

Thus, he was aware of everything that had happened outside.

Hearing Sword Saint's words, Li Hao thought of the woman's cold and beautiful face, and he was momentarily lost in thought. Then he shook his head and smiled, deciding to visit Master Son Lin Shanhai and the others.

Seeing Li Hao's arrival, Lin Shanhai and the others were exceptionally delighted. Li Hao had long since become a celebrity in All Heavens. After becoming a sage, he rarely had the chance to see them. Although they were all senior alchemists, their status was slightly lower than that of semi-saints, and they couldn't compare to sages.

Now, seeing that Li Hao still treated them like old friends, they were secretly moved.

Li Hao caught up with Lin Shanhai and the others, staying for a few days. He also contacted Green Ancestor, Night Ancestor, and others from the Flower Touring Society, agreeing to meet in Cloud Mist World.

The current Cloud Mist World no longer had the Xukong Holy Land, leaving only the Yuan Shi Holy Land and the Martial House Holy Land.

Ji Xuanshen and Mingyue Sword, among others, were also there. After more than a decade, their cultivation had advanced. Ji Xuanshen had reached the Semi-Sage Realm, matching the Three Ancestors of the Ji Family, who were in a long-term slumber, making him the Ji Family's true first person.

Mingyue Sword had also condensed the Saint Path prototype and entered the Semi-Sage Realm, his strength improving rapidly.

The others were still at the Enlightened Realm, but their strength had also improved.

When Sage Yuan Shi of the Yuan Shi Holy Land saw Li Hao's arrival, he knew Li Hao was there to visit his disciples, including Ji Xuanshen. However, his expression was somewhat complex when he saw Li Hao.

He had been present when Primordial Ancestor and the others had plotted, and he was equally displeased with Li Hao's refusal to open the Immortal Gate. However, he didn't show it too openly.

Now, with Li Hao coming alone, he had no intention of bringing up the matter. If he upset Li Hao, the Yuan Shi Holy Land wouldn't be able to withstand this fierce deity.

"Word has it that the revered Hao has come to our holy land."

"What is he doing here? Isn't he the one who monopolized the Immortal Path, wanting to ascend alone?"

"This selfish scoundrel, I heard he’s friends with Ji Xuanshen and company."

"Who would have thought that such generous people like Ji Xuanshen would have such a friend? Although his Talent is high, he’s far too selfish."

"This world is just like that; selfish people always seem to progress faster."

In the Holy Land, many Disciples were discussing the news in hushed tones.

Li Hao's Soul Spirit was incredibly powerful, and his Divine Sense could now barely cover an entire Minor World.

Not only were the Disciples within the Holy Land discussing it, but in the various Divine Dynasties across the Cloud Mist World, the news about him was spreading, though all of it was negative.

"Hao Tian."

When Ji Xuanshen, Mingyue Sword, and others saw Li Hao, they greeted him as warmly and enthusiastically as ever.

Seeing them, the coldness in Li Hao's eyes dissipated, and he smiled.

Then, Li Hao led them to the best tavern in the Cloud Mist World, reserving the entire place.

"Hao Tian, don’t take those rumors to heart. We believe you’re not like that."

At the table, before they even picked up their chopsticks, Ji Xuanshen earnestly told Li Hao.

When he first heard the news, even his Master was extremely outraged by Li Hao’s supposed behavior, but Ji Xuanshen was only shocked.

He had argued with his Master about it, knowing that Li Hao was not the kind of person they described.

How proud that young man was.

Back when he came to the Ji Family alone, he faced all the doubts without a single word of defense.

With just his mortal bones and iron fists, he shattered all those doubts, and even the Ji Family’s attempts to retain him could not sway him. How could he be the selfish person they described?

Ji Xuanshen firmly believed this and did not think he had misjudged his friend.

"You’re right. This news has spread throughout All Heavens. It must be some Sage who bears a grudge against you, using despicable means."

The other Ji Family geniuses immediately chimed in.

They were all people who had been defeated by Li Hao, and they had witnessed firsthand how he had faced countless doubts and climbed to the peak of the Ji Family’s Training Ground with his unparalleled strength, silently proving that all those doubts were misunderstandings.

"We all believe in you."

Mingyue Sword, now in his mid-twenties and exceptionally handsome, looked refined and elegant as he spoke to Li Hao with firm conviction.

Li Hao smiled. It was because of friends like these that everything he did was worth it.

"We’ve already mobilized various channels of the Flower Touring Society to help you find the source."

Beside him, Green Ancestor and Zhantan, among others, looked at Li Hao. Zhantan, the vice president of the Flower Touring Society, knew Li Hao well. If Li Hao were truly selfish in his cultivation, how could he be so passionate about painting?

Li Hao shook his head slightly and said, "There’s no need to look. I know who they are."

They assumed it was some Sage, but they didn’t know it was the work of the All Heavens’ numerous Sages.

Li Hao didn’t reveal the truth, knowing this matter would be settled eventually.

"You know?"

Hearing Li Hao’s words, everyone was surprised that he was aware.

Zhantan, with his keen mind, noticed that Li Hao was calmly bearing this and not seeking revenge. His expression changed slightly as he said, "Could it be... a Supreme Sage?"

Li Hao smiled but remained noncommittal.

Seeing Li Hao’s expression, everyone’s faces changed. A Supreme Sage held a deeply rooted and influential position in All Heavens. No wonder Li Hao knew but took no action.

"Don’t worry about it, everyone. This will all pass like a breeze. Tonight, let’s talk about happy things and not waste this table full of food."

Li Hao smiled.

Seeing Li Hao’s attitude, everyone’s expressions were complex, sensing the pressure he was under.

They wondered if they would be so calm if a Supreme Sage targeted them; they would likely be filled with fear and unable to sleep.

Meanwhile, as Li Hao reunited with his old friends from the Mortal World and the members of the Flower Touring Society,

On the other side, in the Tianyuan Holy Land.

The Primordial Ancestor, sitting in his Cave Mansion with closed eyes, suddenly opened them, revealing a calm gaze that now held a hint of surprise.

"Could it be, he really touched it?"

"This is the Sixth Extreme Realm, merging with Heaven and Earth!"

Shortly after he sensed it, sacred edicts began to shake, and many Sages sent messages to the Primordial Ancestor, informing him of the progress of the second Holy Infant in the Mortal World.

The second Holy Infant had comprehended the Sixth Extreme Realm!

That night, many Sages from the Holy Land were incredibly excited and rushed to the Tianyuan Holy Land.
