The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 203 Inheriting the True Dragon
"Maybe more than that!"

Li Tianzong has a more experienced eye, and his eyes are bright and sharp. He can see that Li Hao has a sense of ease, which is definitely not something that can be done in the Zhoutian realm.

"More than that?"

Chen Hefang was stunned and looked at Li Hao on the stage in disbelief. That child was only seven years old!
At this moment, Li Hao easily defeated the shining Li Junye, and the power he displayed made the entire martial arts field quiet down.

Boss Li Xingbei and others were looking at this younger brother in surprise. They never expected that the other party had such terrible power. They thought Li Junye was brave enough, but who knew that the speed of this Old Ten's rise on the road of cultivation was even more exaggerated than that of Little Nine!
"You've only practiced for one year, but it's already equivalent to three or four years of our training!"

"Even Xiaojiu could be overtaken. This is too outrageous!"

Everyone was shocked, but they all knew that Li Hao had shown extraordinary talent when he was building his foundation and doing hemolysis, and the results of his bone measurement were even legendary. Although they were shocked at the moment, they soon calmed down.

"Interesting, let me try it too."

Li Tiangang jumped onto the ring, casually took out a sword, and said to Li Hao: "Old Ten, let's have a fight too."

Li Hao frowned slightly, but did not refuse, just nodded slightly:

"please."

Li Tiangang is three years older than Li Junye. At the moment, he looks to be twelve years old, almost a teenager. His cultivation has reached the peak of the Soul Successor Realm, and his talent is also outstanding.

"I'll hold back." Li Tiangang snorted.

When dealing with Li Hao, he always felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, unlike his other brothers.

He always felt that Old Ten seemed to treat him differently from his other brothers and was rather cold, but he couldn't remember when he had ever offended Old Ten.

Li Hao didn't say anything, just stood there quietly.

Li Tiangang didn't waste any more words and suddenly pounced forward, activating the power of the soul in his body. The sword light was as bright as thunder and swept out across.

Li Hao's posture was the same as when he just competed with Li Junye. He stood still, neither dodging nor avoiding.

When the blade approached, he raised his hand, pinched the blade with two fingers, and couldn't move it.

Li Tiangang was stunned and couldn't help but look at Li Hao in shock.

Li Hao twisted his fingers and flicked them on the blade. With a bang, the blade fell off and flew out of his hand.

Li Tiangang's wrist trembled, and he was shaken by the huge force and took several steps back. He looked at Li Hao in surprise.

"This boy."

The light in Li Tianzong's eyes became brighter. He was surprised that Li Hao could actually defeat Lao Qi. What made him even more secretly happy was that Li Hao won so easily, which meant that he was much more powerful than he had imagined!

"How can it be……"

Li Tiangang came back to his senses and looked at his fallen sword in a daze. He had been practicing for six years, but he was not as good as Li Hao who had been practicing for only one year?
They thought Li Junye's talent was already catching up with their brothers like a tiger, but it turned out that the tenth brother was even more aggressive and caught up with them in just one year, and even surpassed them!
"Old Ten is so powerful, he might be close to the realm of divine wandering!"

"Just now, the seventh brother underestimated his opponent and didn't dare to use his full strength, but the performance of the tenth brother was amazing."

"You have only practiced for a year and you are now like this. Who would believe it if it were spread out?"

The other Li family members were all shocked.

Li Xingbei and Li Fengping stood together, talking in low voices, both with solemn expressions. They felt the sense of urgency of being chased from Li Hao.

Maybe in a few years, this kid will be able to surpass them.

"Amazing!"

The other illegitimate sons were also shocked, looking at the seven-year-old child on the stage. This age was close to the bottom in the martial arts arena, but at this moment he was the most dazzling. He actually felt like he was invincible standing on the platform.

"I come!"

Suddenly, a figure jumped onto the stage. It was a bastard-born boy.

He stared at Li Hao with sharp eyes, suspecting that Li Tianzong's fellow sons were acting against each other and deliberately inflating the status of this young master.

Otherwise, how could it be so exaggerated after only practicing for a year?

"please."

Li Hao accepted all comers, he only intended to demonstrate the power of the Soul Successor Realm. After all, practicing to the Soul Successor Realm in a year should be the limit of what they can bear.

But with the sixth level of physical body, even with the power of the Soul-Stage Realm, Li Hao's control over his body and use of his strength far surpass these people, and he can even deal with those in the Divine Wandering Realm.

The young man was fourteen years old and was at the peak of the Soul Stage. He didn't show any courtesy at this moment and directly drew his sword and slashed at Li Hao.

Bang!
Li Hao grabbed the sword with his hand, then swung it back with his hand to push it back.

The young man's face was full of shock, but he did not step down. Instead, he suddenly activated his soul. A phantom was reflected behind him, staring at Li Hao with eyes like a ghost, with a strong sense of oppression.

This is the deterrence of the Soul Realm.

But Li Hao looked indifferent and ignored it.

The young man's soul merged into one and integrated into himself. His strength increased dramatically and he roared and swung his sword again.

Li Hao stepped back lightly to avoid the powerful sword, then raised his hand and clapped it, turning gravity into a gentle push, pressing it on the opponent's chest. With a bang, he pushed him and the sword to the stage dozens of meters away.

The young man fell to the ground with a thud, and when he got up in a panic, he looked at Li Hao with a face full of shock and a bit of shame.

Facing Li Hao, who had only practiced for a year, he was defeated even after he exerted all his strength.

Moreover, he could feel that when he fell off the stage, Li Hao's seemingly powerful palm actually landed on his body lightly, without really hitting him hard.

The young man had mixed feelings. He bowed slightly to Li Hao and said nothing more.

I am convinced to lose.

Li Tianzong couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, with admiration in his eyes. From that palm, he saw the mercy of a strong man.

There is so much injustice in the world. The strong go against the current, but when they climb to the top, most of them forget their original intentions and become numb in their hearts.

As the saying goes, a child's character can be seen at the age of three. Although no one taught Li Hao, he has the kindness of a strong person in his heart. This is his nature!
The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he felt, and he felt extremely happy.

"awesome!"

Seeing this, Li Xingbei and others were happy for Li Hao and smiled.

When the other illegitimate children saw them talking and laughing, their faces changed slightly. They were shocked, angry, and upset, but more of them were jealous.

People came up to the stage one after another, hoping to dampen the arrogance of this genius, but they were all easily defeated by Li Hao.

"So strong, he defeated all his own people at the age of seven, and is invincible in the Soul Realm!"

"Is this the direct descendant? The legendary figure!"

Everyone in the martial arts arena was shocked and remembered the child's figure deeply.

Seeing that the performance was almost complete, Li Hao turned around and jumped off the stage.

"Brother is awesome."

Li Hongzhuang picked a small red flower from somewhere and handed it to Li Hao: "For brother."

Li Hao smiled and pinned the little red flower on her hair:

"Wear it and play with it yourself."

Then he glanced at Li Tianzong and his wife, and seeing that they were both smiling at him with a mixture of satisfaction and surprise, he felt a little more comfortable.

He smiled, then sat on the steps, thought about it, and continued to speed up.

……

……

Li Hao's progress in the Dead River was extremely fast.

Working on his art during his waking hours, skipping most of his daily life and pausing only at the occasional critical moment.

Ever since he displayed extraordinary strength at the age of seven, Li Hao's reputation in the Godly General's Mansion has long spread. When talking about Qinglian Courtyard, one will inevitably talk about Li Hao, the youngest master.

What people talked about the most was that in addition to practicing martial arts, this young master also had many strange hobbies.

Some people saw him often going into the kitchen and learning how to cook from the cook. Others saw him playing the piano and painting in the yard. He looked like a playboy from a wealthy family. He was extremely special, and his whole body seemed to be shrouded in mystery, which made people want to explore him.

This time, Li Hao is still inheriting the soul of heaven and earth.

His muscles and bones were as strong as iron and he was extremely powerful. It was easier for him to bear the power infused into him by the souls of heaven and earth than before.

Li Tianzong wanted to take Li Hao to the ancestral temple to inherit his soul, but when he learned that Li Hao had already inherited his soul, and that he had inherited the soul of heaven and earth, he was shocked and overjoyed.

According to the Li family's ancient martial arts documents, he knows what it means to be the successor of heaven and earth's soul. This is a qualification comparable to that of the ancient saints!
"Okay, okay, you are worthy of being my son!"

"You will surpass your ancestors!"

Li Tianzong likes Li Hao very much.

Li Hao handed the two little figures carved out of three sections of carving to the father.

One male and one female.

Li Tianzong saw that the little man was carved so lifelike that he did not get angry but laughed and said, "You put a lot of thought into this. The carving is really good. My son is smart."

"You put a lot of thought into this, kid, didn't you?"

Chen Hefang was delighted to receive this gift, but then he said with a distressed look:
"Father and mother know that you are filial, but you should focus more on martial arts and don't let these things waste your time."

"Yeah." Li Hao nodded.

Li Tianzong smiled and waved his hands, saying, "Alright, alright, Xiaoyi is sincere, so don't say these words that ruin the mood."

Chen Hefang thought so too, stroking the sculptured figurine with a smile on his face. Seeing the harmonious atmosphere, Li Hao took the opportunity to say, "Dad, can you let me go see the demon king imprisoned in the mansion? I want to carve a demon king."

"Carving the demon king?"

Li Tianzong was a little surprised and asked in astonishment: "You like carving so much?"

"Not really, I just want to see the Demon King."

Li Hao said this with a guilty conscience.

Li Tianzong thought for a moment and said, "It's not impossible, but your current strength is not enough. At least wait until you reach the Fifteen Miles Realm before I let you see it. Otherwise, you won't be able to bear even a single look from the Demon King."

"A word is settled!"

Li Hao couldn't help but say with joy.

With the Demon King, his carving and painting skills could be rapidly improved.

"When has your father ever lied to you?" Li Tianzong laughed.

time flies.

At the age of eight, Li Hao's cooking was taken to heart, and his Imperial Dao broke through the three-stage bottleneck. He used his art points to increase it to the sixth stage in one go, and his cultivation level increased dramatically.

He combined many methods of opening up meridians, which further increased the number of major meridians opened throughout his body.

He also collected many methods of refining the soul and controlling objects in Tingyu Tower, and his cultivation level broke through one after another, breaking through the Shenyou Realm and entering the Fifteen-Li Realm.

Eight years old, fifteen miles away.

In the disciple assessment at the martial arts arena, Li Hao once again displayed his amazing strength and easily defeated many Li family disciples.

Li Junye practiced hard for a year and then competed with Li Hao, but found that the gap between them was even bigger.

Li Tiangang was also unwilling to accept the challenge and challenged again, but was defeated in one move as well.

The third and oldest Li Jianming could no longer hold back and used his power to control objects, but was countered by Li Hao with an even more powerful power and defeated.

From then on, his cultivation level of the Fifteen Mile Realm was exposed, and he became famous again in the God General's Mansion and spread throughout Dragon City.

Such an amazing speed of cultivation surprised and delighted Li Tianzong and his wife, and they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.

This year, Li Hao personally cooked the New Year's Eve dinner at Qinglianyuan.

It happened that the time he jumped was the time for the New Year's Eve dinner, so he proposed this idea and got the consent of Li Tianzong.

“Good craftsmanship!”

"Xiao Shi's cooking skills are really good. I think he is no worse than the famous chefs in those big restaurants."

"Tsk tsk, my son is really a man of both civil and military talents, proficient in everything."

"How could I, Li Tianzong, have such a son..."

At the dinner table, Li Tianzong was unusually tipsy, and his speech became a little slurred.

Chen Hefang rolled his eyes at him and said, "Although Xiao Shi is excellent, the other children are not bad either. You can't just praise Xiao Shi."

"Of course, they are all my good sons." Li Tianzong laughed.

Chen Hefang looked at the other boys, smiled sweetly, and said softly, "You don't need to compare yourself with Xiao Shi. You all have your own brilliance, and mother can see it."

The other boys' eyes flickered, and they were all somewhat moved. The eldest brother, Li Xingbei, smiled and said, "We are not jealous of the Tenth Brother. The better the Tenth Brother is, the happier we are."

"That's right. Old Ten is practicing so fast. He will be ahead of us in the future, so I can be lazy." Li Fengping said with a smile.

"My tenth brother is my goal. This gives me more motivation to practice." Li Junye said with a smile. He is now 11 years old and looks quite handsome like a teenager.

When the New Year's Eve dinner was over, Li Hao watched as the hustle and bustle had died down and only empty plates were left. He smiled, then paused for a short while before accelerating to the next period of time.

Not long after Li Hao displayed his amazing talent, a demon king sneaked into the God General's Mansion again to attack, but Li Tianzong and Li Xiaoran saw through it and killed it in advance.

Li Xiaoran was shocked when he learned about Li Hao's progress in cultivation. How could he improve so much after re-cultivating his skills?

He suddenly understood why Li Hao had already reached the third level of immortality when he was fifteen years old.

Moreover, he was able to have a brief confrontation with the Demon King at the ultimate level. His talent was truly unimaginable!
After the demons attacked and sneaked into the God General's Mansion for the second time, Li Tianzong kept Li Hao by his side often and occasionally taught Li Hao the art of war.

At the same time, Li Hao would also take advantage of his free time from reading the Art of War to compose poems, play the piano and paint.

He seems to be acting casually, but his experience in these arts is accumulating and his skills are improving rapidly.

Li Tianzong did not stop this. Li Hao's practice speed was enough to satisfy him. If it were other children, he might have disciplined them more strictly, but Li Hao was very sensible and knew how to act. He was very confident in him and did not worry that Li Hao would abandon his martial arts.

After all, at the age of eight, Shiwulijing had already penetrated the cultivation records of the Dayu Divine Dynasty, and had penetrated them thoroughly.

That’s it, what other reason is there not to let children do what they like?

With Li Tianzong's indulgence, Li Hao's accumulation of art points accelerated.

As his cultivation level improved, he found that the constraints of the Dead River Rules on him seemed to be loosening, and it became easier for him to delve into the many arts and skills.

His original understanding of the Dao realm gradually leaked out a little bit, affecting his present state and making his progress even faster.

He easily reached the third level in many arts and accumulated more than twenty art skill points.

With plenty of skill points, Li Hao is collecting more skills, studying and deducing them, hoping to open up the vein of heaven and earth here.

The Tiandi Meridian has a great impact on the body, which is equivalent to a tray.

However, the skills in Tingyu Tower were limited, so Li Hao had to explain his needs to Li Tianzong.

When Li Tianzong heard what Li Hao said, he immediately sent someone to ask Tianji Tower for the unique skills.

In addition, he wrote letters to contact other divine generals' palaces to borrow martial arts techniques. By the way, he also planned to suppress several martial arts sects with bad behavior, raid their homes, and confiscate a batch of martial arts techniques to fill Tingyu Tower.

Although the main map of this Dead River is Dragon City, Li Xiaoran said that there are demonic forces outside Dragon City.

However, many special rules in Longcheng are affected by Li Tianzong, and Li Tianzong's obsession is with the entire Dayu Divine Dynasty.

Therefore, although many forces in the Dayu Divine Dynasty do not exist in this Dead River, Li Tianzong can still temporarily evolve them if needed.

Just like the Taoist from Qingqiu Mountain who measured Li Hao’s bones, he was from Qingqiu Mountain.

And there is no Qingqiu Mountain outside Longcheng.

Perhaps once the other party leaves the God General's Mansion, it will disappear somewhere that is not easily noticed. This is the Dead River.

With the talent shown by Li Hao, almost every request is granted in the God General's Mansion and he is a pampered person by heaven.

With Li Tianzong's utmost efforts for Li Hao, Li Hao's improvement was rapid. With the integration of many skills, he already had more than 100 meridians, with only a few left to be opened.

The ability to refine the spirit and control objects has also been greatly improved.

Knowing that Li Hao liked famous paintings and chess manuals, Li Tianzong also sent people to search for them and bring back some.

At the age of nine, Li Hao successfully entered the realm of heaven and man. He filled his mind with the many skills he had collected, asked the master about the universe and everything in it, and once again shocked the God General's Mansion.

This time, his journey into the Grandmaster realm was smoother than before, because he now had more skills collected and his knowledge was broader.

This year, Li Hao's strength completely surpassed the nine sons of the Li family. Even Li Xingbei, who had entered the third immortal realm at the age of 27, Li Hao was confident that he could compete with him.

However, this elder brother was very kind to him, and he did not really let adversity defeat him or break his determination to pursue the Tao.

In addition to martial arts, Li Hao also showed extraordinary talents in military tactics, etiquette, music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Li Tianzong was already extremely satisfied with Li Hao, and when he was ten years old, he proposed to determine the real dragon in advance.

In addition to commanding the Divine General's Mansion in the future, the True Dragon will also receive assistance from the ancestors in the ancestral hall, which will further enhance his potential and will also be of great help in his cultivation.

This news caused a sensation again.

The General's Mansion was full of guests, and Li Tianzong also took Li Hao to meet these nobles, giving them the opportunity to make friends with Li Hao and pave the way for Li Hao's future.

But this is the Dead River, and everything will disappear after passing the level. It is meaningless, so Li Hao naturally did not waste time to agree and skipped it directly.

After repeated acceleration, Li Hao's control over time jumps became more precise.

Jump to the end of the banquet, when the guests have dispersed, Li Hao is led by Li Tianzong to the Li family ancestral hall.

The selection of the true dragon has ended, and Li Hao has undisputedly won the position of the true dragon. The other nine sons of the Li family have no objection to this. The legitimate and illegitimate sons in other courtyards also know Li Hao's talent and dare not come to compete for it.

Looking at the ancestral hall in front of him, Li Hao knew that Li Tianzong brought him here to let his ancestors take a look and help him condense his soul.

However, given the level of refinement he has attained, the help his ancestors can provide him with is extremely limited.

However, Li Hao did not reject Zhenlong this time. The first reason was that he could not find a reason to reject him. The second reason was that this was the Dead River and he had to seize every opportunity for growth.

After all, the Candle Fire God and Lu Yuan also came here. This Death River is of the Nether City level and is extremely dangerous. The stronger you are, the more likely you are to survive.

In the ancestral hall, Li Hao saw a middle-aged man sitting in a corner of the square.

He looked somewhat similar to Fifth Master Li Qingzheng, but he had a fierce aura, unlike the calm old man he had seen.

"Old fifth."

Li Tianzong greeted him with a smile.

Li Qingzheng glanced at him but ignored him. He just curled his lips and said, "You gave birth to a good son."

"Haha, I asked you to get married but you refused." Li Tianzong laughed.

"My life is lonely and stained with too much blood, so I won't bring disaster to the younger generation." Li Qingzheng snorted coldly.
