Chapter 760: Chapter 149: Boundary Stone Reflection, Competing for Quotas_3<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the command of the Buddha Venerate, on the Buddhist Holy Land, one Bodhisattva after another stepped forth; on all four sides of the battle platform, massive, pitch-black stones like monuments rose between heaven and earth, casting Divine Light, connecting to each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are the Boundary Stones, the divine light within the stones connecting to the heavens, mirroring the brilliance of the Array of Boundary Stones in a distant part of the Canglan Realm; instantly, above the cloud fog, the grand spectacle of the entire Buddhist Holy Land reflected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In various Dynasties and big cities within the Canglan Realm, all could observe such magnificent scenes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lofty Buddhist Holy Land with its solemn and majestic temples, as well as millions who came to watch the battle including princes, nobles, and so forth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most importantly, the figures of three Saint Dharma standing tall, along with many Heavenly Prides exhibiting their upright statures, made the entire Canglan Realm boil over in an instant!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat is the Buddha Venerate, the Thousand Worlds Buddha Honor, it\u2019s said he endured the sufferings of a thousand worlds and has comprehended everything under heaven!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat\u2019s the Literary Saint, the Supreme Saint in the hearts of us scholars!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat\u2019s the Sword Saint, the ultimate aspiration of all Swordsmen!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo many people; are these the top talents of my Canglan Realm? At the age of 25, I attained the Three Immortalities, thinking myself the dragon among men, but compared to these exceptional talents, I am still too weak!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s said that some saintess, not yet 30, has reached the Dao Law Realm and mastered many Extreme Realms and Divine Skills, a top-tier within her realm!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat Buddhist Twin Buddha Child, it\u2019s said he\u2019s not even 20 years old, but he\u2019s an anomaly; born with Buddha Light and Demonic Qi intertwined around him, reached the pinnacle of Power Passage Realm by age three, and achieved the Three Immortalities by ten!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat\u2019s a reincarnated Saint, rumored to be the reincarnation of a venerable Buddha from the Buddhist sect, incomparable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Countless discussions arose; many princely heirs of dynastic families, with no chance to visit the Buddhist Holy Land, could only look up to the heavens from their clans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The grand spectacle reflected in the clouds, like gods and Buddhas of the heavens, stirred people\u2019s blood to boil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Atop Buddhist Holy Land, Li Hao and others also saw this scene, the Boundary Stones were activated, what followed was the real competition amongst the Heavenly Prides!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This battle, if one\u2019s performance dazzles, could attract countless believers on the spot, and later on, establishing temples would gather immense Incense Fire, greatly shortening the journey to becoming a Saint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Igniting three sticks of Incense Fire is just the first step towards becoming a Saint, the subsequent Incense Fire needed the more the better; the more Incense Fire, the stronger the power. The main force on the path of Incense Sainthood, apart from one\u2019s own Saint Path, is the power of Incense Fire!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFinally, it begins.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chi Guang\u2019s eyes revealed surging fighting spirit, the eyes of other Heavenly Prides became eagerly passionate too, whereas the less fortunate ones showed somber expressions, some revealing reluctance and envy, even just stepping onto the platform would expose them to the view of countless people across Canglan Realm, gaining fame instantly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this moment, following the Buddha Venerate\u2019s command, Li Hao and others stepped onto the platform, twenty people standing in a row, each with a different aura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the first twenty, Buddhist members accounted for eight, only losing two members, Literary Ancestor Holy Land accounted for five members, Sword Ancestor Holy Land four, and the remaining three were Li Hao, Chi Guang, and Su Yun, three independent fighters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeing that only two from the Buddhist sect were eliminated, many were quietly shocked, this session\u2019s Buddhist foundations seemed particularly strong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As everyone\u2019s waist tokens soared into mid-air, under the scrutiny of the three Saints, the luminescence of the great path enveloped them like a whirlwind, launching pairs of waist tokens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyone quickly looked over, finding their own tokens and the corresponding opponents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao saw his opponent was a young Arhat from the Buddhist sect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The opponent also looked towards Li Hao, his face wearing a smile, neither happy nor sad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao nodded slightly to the opponent, then turned and walked down the platform with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although there were clashes with the Buddhist sect in the Mortal Realm, to be accurate, they were conflicts with the Buddha Lord, and the Buddhist sect in this Land of All Saints was another matter. Li Hao did not intend to extend grudges and resentment here, treating each issue on its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stage was left empty, handed over to the first-time combatants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao saw that the first battle was Lin Qingyue; her opponent was a Buddha Son from the Buddhist sect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the battle commenced, both sides exhibited Extreme Realms, with various splendid phenomena, the entire battle stage filled with ferocious power. Lin Qingyue displayed the utmost gentle Sword Intent, her Sword Qi sharp as shards of ice continuously intertwining, but the Buddhist Son was also extremely powerful, a Buddha statue reflection seeming to be blessed by golden Buddha light, displaying vigorous power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao noticed that there was a mass of Sword Qi brewing inside Lin Qingyue\u2019s belly, filling up the previously missing Dao fetus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her combat power wasn\u2019t much less compared to before the battle with the Haoyue Saint Son, rather it had increased, gaining some insights into Nihility Sword Dao.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the battle concluded, Lin Qingyue emerged victorious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That Buddhist Son was defeated, his expression a bit sour, but still, he reined in his emotions, chanting a Buddhist marque relinquishing, before stepping down from the stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lin Qingyue sheathed her sword, casting a glance towards Li Hao\u2019s direction, her face clear and absolutely beautiful, revealing a smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This smile, reflected in the clouds, made numerous young masters from watching families within Canglan Realm dazzle with golden light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWho is that fairy, so beautiful!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIs she from Sword Ancestor Holy Land? Tomorrow I shall go to Sword Ancestor Holy Land, henceforth abandoning the blade for a sword!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Countless people boiled over, shouting Lin Qingyue\u2019s name, this resonance, coupled with the splendor of the first battle, spread Lin Qingyue\u2019s fame throughout Canglan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao also responded with a smile, pleased for the other party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After Lin Qingyue stepped down, next was Chi Guang\u2019s turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His opponent was Zhao Qingshu from Literary Ancestor Holy Land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeing his own opponent, Zhao Qingshu\u2019s face turned bleak, cursing his bad luck internally, yet remembering how Li Hao defeated the opponent and on the Saint Mountain, his master was close to Li Hao, it would be too disgraceful if he easily surrendered just like his defeated predecessor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, battle!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026Lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zhao Qingshu lost rapidly, Chi Guang didn\u2019t intend to show mercy, a single Fire Element Divine Ability raised, Zhao Qingshu immediately enveloped in Heart Flame, the jealousy within his heart blazed like wild grass, the rapidity of the flames even surprised Chi Guang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, despite the loss, Zhao Qingshu still burst forth with his Shu Hai Divine Skills, the sky filled with brilliant sword shadows and saber radiance, swiftly consumed, eliciting sighs from onlookers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Boundary Stone reflects the confrontation on the battle platform, while in the Buddha Hall, the three great Saints are majestically seated in their Dharma Aspects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buddha Venerate, smiling, said: “They will represent our Canglan Realm in combat. This competition for first place should bring some benefits. My Buddhist sect is willing to offer 50 cities worth of Incense Fire, do the rest of you have anything to add?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon hearing Buddha Venerate\u2019s words, Literary Saint and Sword Saint both glanced at him. As peers of sainthood and adept in the ways of the Saint Path, how could they not perceive that among this generation\u2019s Heavenly Prides, the most formidable were the Twin Buddha Children, clearly surpassing others by a large margin? The title of first place was likely to end up in their pocket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the master utilizing the opportunity to gather Incense Fire for his disciple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet having them contribute to the prize… Literary Saint said with a smile:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I am willing to give 30 cities worth of Incense Fire for the second place!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was quite confident in Lin Shuhai\u2019s strength, with the only obstacle being Chi Guang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You give to the first, I give to the second, quite reasonable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sword Saint\u2019s eyes flickered for a moment, and indifferently said: “Since both of you are in such good taste, I will give 20 cities worth of Incense Fire to the third place.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The opponent wanted to bestow his disciple with 50 cities worth of Incense Fire; he couldn\u2019t stop it, but it was fair to provide for their own disciples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, whether Haoyue could secure third place, Sword Saint wasn\u2019t very sure, as there were too many hurdles before Haoyue, including Chi Guang, Lin Shuhai, and also Qingfeng.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it weren\u2019t for Sword Master previously mentioning that Li Hao was under 30 years old and had short cultivation time, then considering Li Hao\u2019s previous defeat of Haoyue with a sword strike that clearly had strength to spare, he even had a chance at competing for second place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Noticing their thoughts, Buddha Venerate sighed softly and said: “This competition has ten slots, battling against All Heavens, a competition for the top hundred. Ultimately, those who can enter the top ten are one in a thousand from each realm; maybe only one person can make it, thus we need to focus Incense Fire resources to nurture the best among the Heavenly Prides.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Literary Saint and Sword Saint looked at him with slightly focused eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“If both of you are willing to provide a total of 50 cities of Incense Fire, together making a hundred, enough to sustain thirty minutes, why not give it all to the first place, to also ignite their competitive spirit? If any of your disciples achieve first place, I will surely applaud loudly,” said Buddha Venerate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Literary Saint\u2019s expression turned sullen, realizing Buddha Venerate\u2019s determination from his words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Long have I heard of Buddha Venerate\u2019s devoted mentorship towards his disciples, and today I have truly witnessed it.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Literary Saint said lightly, his words laced with sarcasm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sword Saint indifferently said: “If the second and third places are only narrowly defeated, this reward gap might foster complacency.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buddha Venerate said: “In the path of Martial Arts, failure is failure, there\u2019s no such thing as a narrow defeat. In the face of life and death, a single line divides.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeing the other person advocating so strongly for his disciple, both Literary Saint and Sword Saint did not speak further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shortly after, following the conclusion of the battle between Chi Guang and Zhao Qingshu, Buddha Venerate announced the prize for first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hearing about the hundred cities worth of Incense Fire, many below the stage had their eyes light up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chi Guang\u2019s eyes showed a fiery color, the three great Saints actually jointly providing a hundred cities worth of Incense Fire; he must vie for first!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elsewhere below the stage, Lin Shuhai also showed a glint of light in his eyes, smiling at the corner of his mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Haoyue Saint Son\u2019s brows furrowed, his eyes showing some hostility. Honestly, he didn\u2019t have much confidence in clinching first place, previously defeated by Qingfeng led to cracks in his Dao Heart, only after his master helped did he seal his Dao Heart and elevated his Sword Intent, but even so, after seeing the Twin Buddha Children, he felt even more uncertain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pride of once looking down on everything, on the Sword Ancestor Holy Land\u2019s Saint Mountain, also seemed to be slashed away with that sword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But with such a great temptation, a hundred cities worth of Incense Fire, which was akin to multiple centuries of hard cultivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Incense Fire is usually tightly controlled by Saints, equivalent to taking money out of the Saint\u2019s pocket, not easy to obtain!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“If only I had ten more years…”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Haoyue\u2019s eyes revealed a bright light, resenting the shortness of time and the quick passage of the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from them, other Heavenly Prides also showed envy in their eyes, but unfortunately, the reward was only for the first place, though all possessing proud airs, none were blindly confident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The words of Buddha Venerate spread, conveyed through the reflection by the Boundary Stone, reaching the entire Canglan Realm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an instant, countless people loudly praised the magnanimity of the three great Saints, and many new followers of the three great Saints appeared in the cities of various Dynasties, adding to their Incense Fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao, hearing Buddha Venerate\u2019s words, was somewhat surprised; a hundred cities worth of Incense Fire, enough to sustain thirty minutes, his path to Incense Sainthood would be shortened by another hundred years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That was a hundred years, which to him, was very lengthy, a lifetime for a mortal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not long after, following the end of Chi Guang\u2019s fight, the third match, Bian Ruxue against Li Qingyi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Qingyi, hearing Buddha Venerate\u2019s words, although knowing herself to be out of contention, especially unable to surpass Lin Shuhai, her senior brother, still felt a surge of motivation, sensing the emphasis the three great Saints placed on this battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Be careful, your opponent is the youngest saintess from inside the Sword Ancestor Holy Land.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Though young, but her mentor is Sword Saint, but I heard she\u2019s only at Four Extremes Realm.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other Saint Heirs whispered to Li Qingyi, informing her with gathered intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the many saintesses of Literary Saint Holy Land, Li Qingyi was particularly favored, considering her father was Literary Saint with a remarkable position, and given this girl\u2019s naivety, enthusiastic and lively personality, she was also well-liked by others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Alright!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hearing her senior brother\u2019s advice, Li Qingyi nodded vigorously, knowing that those who had come this far were not simple characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon, two stunning beauties floated onto the stage, the Array coalescing and closing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeing the imminent clash between the two exceptional beauties, cheers and encouragement erupted from below the stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This time, Li Qingyi, unlike during her bout with Li Hao where she concealed her identity, was using her real strength to compete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 762: Chapter 150: Fury, A Hundredfold Suppression! (Vote for Monthly Ticket)_2<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She raised her hand, and from her sleeve, a volume of sacred text flew out, a treasure equivalent to a Swordsman\u2019s Divine Sword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As she manipulated the book with her fingers, its pages fluttered like a swift wind, turning non-stop. Behind her, myriad miraculous visions appeared, eight chapters within the book, and now, the Demon and Demon Chapter and the God and Ghost Chapter turned first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many ferocious specters appeared, transforming into a flood that rushed toward Bian Ruxue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bian Ruxue\u2019s eyes were indifferent, her posture upright, her face faintly bearing the detached serenity of her mentor, the Sword Saint. Suddenly drawing her sword, its light shone in all directions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With one sword, frost arose; with two, snow flew!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an instant, the battle stage was a world of ice and snow, endless cold winds rising, shredding those visions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIce and Snow Sword Intent!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Four Extremes Realm exploded forth, her Primordial Spirit hovering aloft; Bian Ruxue\u2019s strike was her strongest, without a hint of mercy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Qingyi, with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, had the book swiftly flipping pages before him, with the Mortal World chapter emerging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From within the book, an old man emerged, wearing a hat and carrying a wine gourd at his waist, looking relaxed. He suddenly took off his hat, and it spun like a blade\u2019s edge, severing the ice and snow Sword Intent all around!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy heart aspires to the bright moon!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Qingyi softly chanted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Words like laws, a bright moon appeared behind him, its light converging into a sword light in the old man\u2019s hand!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moonlight condensed into a sword, to cleave Heaven and Earth Yin and Yang!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The vast Sword Intent swung out, like a peerless Swordsman, causing cracks to appear in the ice and snow, as if a great wind had blown, not scorching hot, but making the chill recede.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shock flashed in Bian Ruxue\u2019s eyes; her opponent, through the Literature Dao cultivation, could actually manifest such fearsome Sword Qi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI establish my soul with Heaven and Earth!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a brilliant gleam in his eyes, Li Qingyi\u2019s form was mirrored by the sudden appearance of the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation. His body retreating, he merged with the Dharma Aspect, a continuous flow of power pouring in. The old man, too, erupted with an even more terrifying might.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suddenly, he raised his sword light and brought it down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boom! The ice and snow shattered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bian Ruxue wanted to block, but couldn\u2019t; her Extreme Realm revealed, yet her power was suppressed by the opponent, one grade weaker. Her Ice and Snow Sword Intent, was severed by the old man summoned from the book!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His Literary Intent was stronger than her Sword Intent!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Returning Ruins!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bian Ruxue dodged this sword and swiftly closed in on Li Qingyi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHeaven and Earth Eight Desolations!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Qingyi whispered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Around the Dharma Aspect, lava burst forth, hurricanes rose, creating a tremendous momentum, pushing back Bian Ruxue just as she emerged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The old man, even more agile, also employed the Returning Ruins, a sword strike severing hundreds of Bian Ruxue\u2019s locks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The victor was clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeing this scene, all below the stage were astonished; then came the thunderous cheers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unexpectedly, the confrontation within this Literary Saint Holy Land was so fierce and grand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reflected by the Boundary Stone, countless people saw the result of the battle, some wondered, why didn\u2019t the Sword Ancestor Holy Land\u2019s saintess use the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But no answer came.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After all, those who knew Bian Ruxue lacked the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation were but a few, and dignified figures, having come to watch the battle in person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitterness edged Bian Ruxue\u2019s mouth; she had not thought she\u2019d fail to enter the top ten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, recalling her mentor\u2019s words, her heart eased somewhat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After all, she lacked the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation and was still too young\u2026 Yet, when thinking this, the image of that person defeating Haoyue with a single sword flooded her mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sword Master had said he was also under 30 yet his sword had Entered Dao.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This thought made her eyes flicker slightly; looking down from the stage, she saw that figure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other was also watching the battle, their gazes met, and Bian Ruxue\u2019s eyes trembled, suddenly feeling an inexplicable sensation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But soon, she thought of a figure from her childhood, her heart quickly calming down, thereafter turning to thoughts of her own sword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So many years, yet she had not been able to completely sever it; perhaps this was the final obstacle in her Sword Dao.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With that thought, her gaze grew colder. Without another word, she turned and left the stage, while many images in her mind began to recede.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking at the victorious opponent, she understood, if she continued this way, she would fail again, and be surpassed one after another by these Heavenly Prides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She must sever completely, freeze her heart with ice and snow, then shatter it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This realization gave her an epiphany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Buddha Hall, the Sword Saint seemed to sense something, his gaze sweeping over, spotting Bian Ruxue in her seat below, eyes closed but surrounded by a whirl of Daoist Charm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Surprise flickered in his eyes, followed by a smile; with a wave of his hand, Bian Ruxue disappeared from her seat and arrived before him. Yet, this transfer didn\u2019t startle her; she kept her eyes closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He merely isolated her from distracting thoughts to avoid disturbances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Literary Saint and Buddha Venerate looked over, the Literary Saint with surprise in his eyes, smilingly said: \u201cCongratulations, Sword Saint. I did not expect your disciple to be so rarely gifted, to gain sudden insight during battle, this is a sign of approaching Entering Dao.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is your daughter who possesses higher talent, easily defeating her and giving her the chance for sudden insight.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sword Saint smiled in response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knowing that Bian Ruxue could have such a realization, he too, was comforted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sword Saint was well aware of Bian Ruxue\u2019s past and knew that to Enter Dao, she had to take this step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, she had finally found it on her own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLook, Sword Ancestor Holy Land\u2019s saintess Bian Ruxue has appeared next to Sword Saint.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShe seems to be cultivating!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat\u2019s not cultivation; it\u2019s sudden insight. She is having a sudden insight!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy heavens, she has an epiphany after losing a battle?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUnbelievable, becoming a saintess before 30, isn\u2019t her talent too monstrously immense?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below, countless people were shocked, as cultivators often spoke of epiphanies, but to truly experience one was extremely difficult and rare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 763: Chapter 150: Fury, A Hundredfold Suppression! (Vote for Monthly Ticket)_3<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If one achieves sudden insight during combat, it\u2019s understandable as the heat of battle can be stimulating. But to come to a profound realization after defeat, without having one\u2019s spirit broken, is terrifying indeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEh?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Qingyi finished his cultivation and stepped down from the stage, also surprised by the scene before him, and then a bit helpless, not expecting to become a stepping stone for the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chi Guang and Lin Shuhai, among others, also looked over but their expressions didn\u2019t change much, and quickly they turned their gaze away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sudden insight or not, defeated and not in the top ten, the difference between them was too great to consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout their cultivation journey, all Heavenly Prides have their moments of insight. It\u2019s just that the timing of the other\u2019s insight is somewhat notable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the third match ended, it was time for Li Hao to face that Buddhist disciple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao didn\u2019t delay; once the stage was cleared, he stepped up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His tall and upright figure immediately drew the attention of the entire audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other side, when the Buddhist Saint Heir stepped onto the stage, it only caused whispers among the Buddhist disciples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s Puhua Saint Heir!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis battle will be a good show to watch. If Qingfeng underestimates Puhua Saint Heir, he will certainly suffer greatly!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPuhua Saint Heir was previously able to exchange three moves with the Twin Buddha Children. He specializes in Divine Skills, very formidable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the Array condensed and sealed the stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Puhua Saint Heir in his white and gold Kasaya smiled slightly, but his eyes revealed a hint of sharpness. He put his palms together towards Li Hao and politely said, \u201cI humbly ask for your leniency, benefactor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although Li Hao noticed a change in the other\u2019s temperament from the previous gentleness, he nodded slightly in politeness, believing in reciprocating courtesy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the greetings, Li Hao began to gather Sword Qi in his palm, not disguising it, nor planning a sudden attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint Heir\u2019s body radiated dazzling Buddhist light, a majestic Arhat Dharma Aspect appeared behind him, and simultaneously, a golden crack suddenly opened on his forehead, shooting out Divine Light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHeavenly Vision!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Opening his third eye allowed him to observe the battles\u2019 intricacies more closely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the third eye on his forehead opened, suddenly, Puhua Saint Heir saw black qi wrapped around Li Hao\u2019s hands, causing his expression to change, speaking angrily:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou are a Demon Practitioner, benefactor!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEh?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao was momentarily stunned, then looked at his own hands. The resentment from killing he had absorbed was locked within his Divine Blood, still being refined. How could the other see through it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs a Demon Practitioner, to dare to come to our Buddhist sacred land, you are very bold, benefactor!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint Heir\u2019s eyes turned icy, his gaze even more piercing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His words rippled through the audience below, causing a stir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Demon Practitioner?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Qingfeng is a Demon Practitioner?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many princes, princesses, and noble sons were exchanging glances in surprise and shock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And as the words spread through the Boundary Stone, it caused a commotion throughout the entire Canglan Realm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the Land of All Saints being highly inclusive, allowing even Demons and the Human Race to coexist, the vast majority of ordinary people still could not accept man-eating Demons and bloodthirsty, murderous Demon Practitioners, universally despised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chi Guang, Lin Shuhai, and others were somewhat surprised, but their expressions remained largely unchanged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ordinary people fear Demon Practitioners because they are defenseless, stemmed from fear, but as top Cultivators and Heavenly Prides, they all understand it\u2019s not the sword that harms people, but the swordsman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demon Practitioners or Demons, as long as they are properly utilized, can be a force to protect the Human Race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those Divine Beasts have also come from Demons, suppressed and tamed, hence revered by people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demons prey on the Human Race, while the Human Race\u2019s Heavenly Prides also use Demons for cultivation. There is only a difference in race, not in morality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, even knowing that Li Hao is a Demon Practitioner, they did not see it as a significant issue. As long as this power is used on behalf of the Human Race, it\u2019s beneficial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But for the many Buddhist disciples below, their faces changed color, all looking at Li Hao with shock and outrage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao frowned, his gaze sweeping over the crowd. Apart from those he knew like Lin Qingyue and the worried Alchemists outside the stands like Lin Shanhai, the majority of unfamiliar faces among the audience of princes and noble sons looked back at him with shock and disdain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao looked up towards the highest Buddha Venerate in the Buddha Hall, who was also looking down at him with an expression neither joyous nor sorrowful, as if overseeing mortal ants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao retracted his gaze, feeling a hint of irony. The other had mistaken his efforts to liberate the resentment for Demonic Qi; not only was it not Demonic Qi, but he was also guiding those resentful spirits toward rebirth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If one were to say the biggest source of Demonic Qi, it would be the Buddha Venerate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Going by what the Half-Saint Spider Demon said, he was likely at the Universal Force Ultimate Realm, also absorbing these resentful spirits, perhaps, the numerous resentful spirits within the Demon Domain were deliberately cultivated by him\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thinking this, Li Hao was startled. If so, this Buddha Venerate had grand ambitions, intending to achieve Dual Cultivation of Incense Fire and thereby become a Saint?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao took a deep breath, looked at the golden face bathed in Buddha\u2019s light of his opponent, and said coldly, \u201cDo not slander me, what Demon Practitioner? If we must talk about Demon Practitioners, aren\u2019t your Twin Buddha Children exactly that?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe is different from you. He was born with a Heart Demon within him, wrestling with the Heavenly Demon from birth, carrying a great vow and mission. His destiny is to subdue the Heart Demon, an admirable task, while you willingly fell into depravity!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint Heir narrowed his eyes, his tone icy as he spoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao stared at him and suddenly started to laugh, saying, \u201cHe has Demonic Qi inside, and Demon Statues outside, carrying grand ambitions, a savior, but when it comes to others, it\u2019s self-degradation?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t have to quibble, as part of the Human Race, yet you cultivate with such a vicious Cultivation Technique, you should be executed!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint Heir\u2019s gaze was forthright, filled with robust righteousness: \u201cEven though I know your Swordsmanship is advanced, I may not be able to beat you, but I will still use my life\u2019s strength to suppress you, let Buddha\u2019s light shine upon the world, and protect the Human Race!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 764: Chapter 150: Fury, Hundredfold Suppression! (Vote for Monthly Ticket)_4<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon these words being uttered, explosive cheers shot up to the skies in the cities of dozens of dynasties within the Canglan Realm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just with these remarks alone, Puhua Saint managed to gain the faith of many, prompting them to erect temples and offer incense fire in his honor after the fact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao wanted to laugh, for he already had an inkling of the other party\u2019s intentions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou know my swordsmanship has entered the Dao, and my Sword Dao is not the Demonic Path, so why would I need to cultivate Demon Skills? With my Sword Dao alone, I\u2019m more than capable of roaming freely without restraint; there\u2019s no need to borrow the ways of the Demonic Path for cultivation!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao declared loudly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSuch arrogant talk is a bit excessive, isn\u2019t it? While your Sword Dao is strong enough to defeat us, it still pales in comparison to the top Heavenly Prides. To yearn for one of the top ten spots in the Supreme Genius Battle, or even first place, it\u2019s normal to be tempted by desire and fall into the Demonic Path.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint commented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hearing his words, many in the audience thought there was some truth to it. With Li Hao\u2019s power in the Sword Dao, securing a spot in the top ten of the Canglan Realm wouldn\u2019t be a problem, but attempting to claim one of the top ten positions amongst all the Heavens did seem a bit more daunting; hence, it seemed plausible that he might risk taking the shortcut of the Demonic Path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao, however, couldn\u2019t help but laugh upon hearing these remarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re accusing me of being a Demon Practitioner, then bring forth your evidence!\u201d Li Hao couldn\u2019t be bothered to argue further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve miscalculated, I happen to possess the Divine Light Transmission, which can reveal the Demonic Qi!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint sneered, as if having anticipated Li Hao\u2019s response, and his body suddenly radiated brilliant golden light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, while power surged within him, concentrating in his arms. The Divine Blood circulated rapidly, continually refining and purging the black Qi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, he restrained his aura, as over a hundred layers of Dao Domain unfolded in succession, blocking the Buddha light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA hundred layers of Dao Domain!!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon witnessing the Dao Domain displayed by Li Hao, the crowd below was shocked and stirred into an uproar!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This scene, reflected by the Boundary Stone, also left dozens of dynasties across the Canglan Realm in stunned silence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Taiping Tao Domain was already a mark of a top-tier powerhouse in a dynasty, yet Li Hao had managed to condense over a hundred layers of Dao Domain!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chi Guang\u2019s pupils contracted slightly, revealing a hint of astonishment; a hundred layers of Dao Domain required immense effort. While it didn\u2019t seem as directly impactful as a Skill entering the Dao, the cumulative layering, once reaching a certain threshold, could also undergo a qualitative change, becoming an extremely powerful force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He had not focused his efforts in this area because it would be too time-consuming and the gains seemed minor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If one\u2019s Skill reached a bottleneck, that would be the time to pivot and refine one\u2019s Dao Domain further, amassing more combat power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lin Shuhai also revealed a trace of solemnity in his eyes. Swordsmanship entering the Dao, coupled with a hundred layers of Dao Domain, meant that this strength was at the level of the top Heavenly Prides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The numerous Saint Heirs and saintesses from the Sword Ancestor Holy Land, including Lin Qingyue, were all shocked; this was the first time they had seen Li Hao\u2019s true power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previously, Li Hao defeated Haoyue with a single sword strike, clearly holding back some strength. Was this Li Hao\u2019s reserved power?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the crowd, Jiang Yingyue, who was merely observing the battle below, revealed an excited gleam in her eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A hundred layers of Dao Domain!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compared to what she had heard from the Sword Master previously in the Sword Tower, about 97 layers, Li Hao had condensed three more layers in just a short period!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was his true combat strength!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I knew it, I knew it!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jiang Yingyue trembled with excitement; this great secret she had confided only to the Yao Ancestor, and had told no one else, had been festering inside her, almost causing her internal agony. Seeing Li Hao defeat Chi Guang in the Divine Dynasty Solo Battle without even using his Dao Domain, she knew that Li Hao still hadn\u2019t used his full strength!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Were outsiders really claiming that Chi Guang hadn\u2019t used his full strength either? As if Qingfeng had used all his power?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA hundred layers of Dao Domain, just the Dao Domain itself can halt the progression of Law Mystic Powers!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jiang Yingyue\u2019s eyes sparkled with light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, on the platform above, the Buddha light could not penetrate beyond Li Hao\u2019s Dao Domain, unable to advance even an inch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A hundred layers of Dao Domain was sufficient to block his Divine Skills, preventing them from infiltrating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfraid to show your true face?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint couldn\u2019t help but cry out in shock and anger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao sneered: \u201cIt\u2019s your Divine Skills that are trash, incapable of reflecting their power. You slander me because you can\u2019t beat me. Which part of the strength I\u2019ve demonstrated has even a shadow of the Demonic Path?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sword Qi pervaded within his Dao Domain, clearly indicating a Sword Domain, unrelated to the Demonic Path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hearing Li Hao\u2019s words, many people below the stage also showed surprise and doubt in their eyes. Indeed, they couldn\u2019t see a hint of the Demonic Path, and moreover, if Li Hao could condense a Hundred-Layered Dao Domain and had his Swordsmanship Entering Dao, was there any need for him to cultivate the Demonic Path?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDemon fiend, you still dare to quibble!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint yelled furiously, his face flushed red, but his law-infused Divine Skills were utterly incapable of penetrating Li Hao\u2019s Dao Domain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within Li Hao\u2019s arms, Divine Blood pulsated, accelerating the refining of those murderous resentments, and soon, his aura gradually faded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He raised his hand, drawing a streak of Sword Qi from the void, and suddenly slashed towards Puhua Saint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIs this sword, or is it not a Demon Sword!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sword Qi was like a cleansing breeze, illuminating heaven and earth, pure and bright green, exuding vast Sword Power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint\u2019s pupils constricted, his back reflecting the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation, and he roared: \u201cIf the demon is not converted, I vow not to achieve buddhahood!!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSuch obsession, you are already in the Demonic Path!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao\u2019s eyes looked down disdainfully, speaking indifferently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His sword light suddenly fell, splitting the opponent\u2019s Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation, Hundred-Layered Dao Domain suppressing, effortlessly overthrowing and destroying the opponent\u2019s laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao stepped forward, used Returning Ruin Instantaneous Movement to appear in front of his opponent, directly kicked the opponent out from the Dharma Aspect, stepping on him underfoot, the battle platform cracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou say I am a demon, so what if I am a demon, is there a rule prohibiting Demon Practitioners from battling?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint lay under Li Hao\u2019s foot, defeated beneath the battle platform, coughing out golden blood in his Divine Power State, gritting his teeth:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThough there is no such rule, I do not permit it!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWho are you supposed to be?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao laughed, \u201cNot only can I participate in the battle, but I will also take the first place!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint\u2019s pupils contracted, hearing the meaning in Li Hao\u2019s words. If he took first place, the Buddha Venerate would personally bestow upon Li Hao the Incense Fire of a hundred cities. For the Buddhist sect to award a Demon Practitioner the Incense Fire of a hundred cities was undoubtedly a disgrace, a slap in the face of the Buddhist community!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou, you\u2019re delusional!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint clenched his teeth, gold light flickering in his eyes, as if brewing an attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, two streaks of sword light suddenly shot out from Li Hao\u2019s eyes, meeting his gaze, full of Sword Intent, piercing through his eyeballs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puhua Saint screamed in agony, his eyes bleeding, raising his hands to cover his eye sockets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao lifted his foot, kicking him away to crash against the Magic Array Barrier, declaring his victory in this battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeing Li Hao\u2019s domineering manner, everyone was shocked. Although Puhua Saint claimed Li Hao was a Demon Practitioner, he didn\u2019t produce any evidence, it was merely an assertion. In contrast, the strength displayed by Li Hao was astounding, his Hundred-Layered Dao Domain subdued countless Heavenly Prides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI don\u2019t care if you\u2019re a Demon Practitioner or not, but wanting to take first place might be a bit difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chi Guang said to Li Hao, although the Hundred-Layered Dao Domain surprised him, he was not afraid of his own strength. Even if his Dao Domain did not have a hundred layers, but had fifty, it was enough to barely withstand it. Combined with his true power, it was enough to breach Li Hao\u2019s Dao Domain!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHow difficult?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao looked at him, his mood not as good as before, no longer showing a friendly demeanor: \u201cYou think you\u2019re up for it?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chi Guang was taken aback, the Li Hao he knew was gentle and easygoing, extremely casual, but now he was like an unsheathed precious sword, untouchable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He suddenly realized, if the other\u2019s Swordsmanship had Entered Dao, how could he not have the sharp edge of a Heavenly Pride?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He wasn\u2019t angry, but instead laughed, \u201cThat\u2019s more like it, interesting, I hope when I meet you later, you won\u2019t regret saying this.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere\u2019s no need for later; defeating you takes only one sword, anytime you wish for silence!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Li Hao said coldly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
