The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 204: Starting Extreme
"We are stained with blood to prevent the people from being stained with blood. Don't talk nonsense about lonely lives."

Li Tianzong said unhappily.

Then he said to Li Hao: "Call him Uncle Wu. Remember, when you become successful in the future, if your father is not around, you must take good care of your Uncle Wu and treat him the same way as I do."

Li Hao nodded: "I understand."

The crisp voice fell into Li Qingzheng's ears, making him turn his head slightly to take a look. When he caught a glimpse of Li Hao's handsome face, and saw that Li Hao was also looking at him, his expression suddenly became a little unnatural.

With a light snort, he turned his head and said, "Go in quickly and stop talking nonsense to your son."

Li Tianzong smiled and led Li Hao into the ancestral hall.

Inside the ancestral hall, Li Hao looked at the many tablets there, which were almost the same as he remembered.

To inherit the true dragon, you need to make a vow first.

Li Hao had asked Li Xiaoran before, this oath is limited to the Dead River and cannot be taken out. The only things that can be taken out are the time and memories here.

Therefore, the understanding of martial arts gained from practicing here, or the skills that you have created and deduced yourself, can all be brought out.

At this moment, Li Tianzong took Li Hao to swear an oath in front of the ancestral tablet.

Swear allegiance to the Li family, defend the Li family, and lead the Li family forward.

Li Hao recited Li Tianzong's oath in detail. If he wanted to pass the Dead River, he had to complete the main task and assist Li Tianzong in defending Longcheng.

Therefore, the oath not to harm the Li family, etc., had no effect on Li Hao.

When the oath was over, the divine light of the ancestors appeared on the tablet. Then, Li Tianzong left the ancestral hall, leaving only Li Hao inside to receive the baptism of the ancestors.

Li Hao previously established his soul with heaven and earth, and had already condensed the soul image to 360 times, reaching the limit, and also condensed the ultimate Dharma image of heaven and earth.

At this moment, the ancestor's divine light floated and surrounded Li Hao, once again opening Li Hao's bones, strengthening his blood, and condensing his soul.

He recast every realm for him, surpassing the limits brought by practicing the ultimate skills.

Relying on the ancestor's refinement, the Li family's true dragon can rival or even surpass the royal geniuses in the same realm.

Only a prince selected from the royal family and receiving a special inheritance can defeat the true dragons of the five divine generals' palaces again.

"Hmm? What a strong physique!"

"This boy's body is as strong as iron. Is he going to achieve enlightenment through body refinement?"

The Li family ancestors who surrounded Li Hao were shocked when they were performing bone opening operation on Li Hao.

Li Hao's bones were glowing with divine light, not like ordinary bones. Even after they had condensed their energy, they might not be able to achieve such a physique.

And it is incredible that Li Hao has cultivated to this level on his own.

As the power of his ancestors was infused into him, Li Hao felt his whole body soften, as if the charm of red gold was flowing in his blood. He felt extremely comfortable, as if thousands of small hands were combing his muscles and veins.

"This soul phase..."

Soon, the ancestors of the Li family were shocked when they saw Li Hao’s soul, which was hidden in his body like a giant spirit.

“This is the Dharma image of heaven and earth, the legendary ancient saint’s divine soul!”

The first ancestor Li Tianyuan was shocked.

The other ancestors were also surprised when they heard this and looked at Li Hao in disbelief.

The entire ancestral hall was shaken.

Afterwards, they whispered to each other and discussed rapidly, and finally, decided to try to condense it for Li Hao again.

But Li Hao's Dharma image of heaven and earth was too huge and solid. Golden light burst out from their bodies and they consumed a huge amount of soul power, but they still couldn't condense it.

"Could it be that his Dharma image has been condensed to the limit?"

Some ancestors were doubtful.

Li Tianyuan shook his head and said solemnly: "It seems not yet. I can feel our power seeping in and being absorbed by him. However, our power is too little. He seems to have reached a bottleneck and needs to break through it."

"In that case, let's try again."

The ancestors talked to each other for a moment and soon made up their minds to try again for Li Hao.

As the divine light burst out, the entire ancestral hall was filled with red-gold light, and many ancestors burst out with tremendous divine power.

Li Hao felt that the power enveloping him was several times stronger than before.

Li Hao was slightly stunned. In his understanding, his Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth had been condensed 360 times, which had already reached its limit. His ancestor actually said that it could be broken again?

He suddenly thought of the state of divine power. A million pounds of strength was the condition for unlocking it, but his physical strength could be further improved.

At that time, he had doubted whether this extreme state might not be the limit.

I didn't expect it to be true.

However, what is the real limit behind the Dharma of heaven and earth?
And after reaching the land immortal realm, can one reach a more extreme level?
Could it be that he has truly become an immortal?
While Li Hao was thinking, divine light completely bathed him. The divine thoughts surrounding Li Hao's many ancestors dissipated, but their gazes were mostly firm and steady, injecting power into Li Hao's Dharma image.

Suddenly, Li Hao felt the Dharma image tremble slightly, and then the number of times he condensed his soul reached 361 times.

It was only an upgrade once, but Li Hao felt as if some kind of bottleneck had been broken through. A force was released, gathering from the heaven and earth and the four directions, making him feel as if the Dharma was in harmony with the heaven and earth.

Li Hao was immersed in this feeling. Only then did he truly feel that the power of the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth was not just an improvement in strength, but it was able to mobilize more power. If combined with the Veins of Heaven and Earth, it would unleash several times more combat power.

When Li Hao opened his eyes, he saw that the golden light on many of his ancestors' heroic spirits had dimmed. Only a few of them still had golden light shining, but it was much weaker than before.

"Kid, this is all we can do."

Ancestor Li Tianyuan said to Li Hao in a gentle voice: "If we continue to open up for you, we may all burn up and still not be able to fill you up."

"But it doesn't matter. You are now far beyond the same realm and have entered a broader world. If you practice other top-level soul-condensing methods in the future, you will be able to condense to a higher level on your own."

Li Hao sighed inwardly when he saw his weak appearance, and nodded, "I understand."

"We help you condense your soul, and the 100% of our effort we put in can only produce 10% of the effect. If you practice on your own, it will be much easier. This is just the beginning." Another ancestor said.

"The future of the Li family depends on you."

The other ancestors also spoke. Although their spiritual powers were much weaker, their voices were steady and firm.

"I will try my best to defend Longcheng." Li Hao whispered.

The ancestors said nothing more and continued to strengthen Li Hao's Divine Wandering Realm and Fifteen Miles Realm, but the strengthening was limited.

Including the Tonggu of the Tongli realm, it only increased Li Hao's strength by 100,000 pounds.

The blessing obtained by the true dragon is extremely enormous for ordinary people, but for Li Hao, if he can find more skills, he can accumulate more power.

The biggest gain this time was that Li Hao realized that 360 times of heaven and earth Dharma images was not the limit. He also realized that the extreme realm he had opened up before was only the starting point.

However, this so-called beginning has only been touched by very few people in the entire Dayu Divine Dynasty for thousands of years.

And not every realm can reach the initial extreme.

……

As the true dragon inherits, Li Hao gains more freedom, and his needs become the first needs of the Li family.

Li Tianzong found many skills for Li Hao, allowing Li Hao to improve his cultivation faster.

Li Hao never went to the martial arts arena again and only practiced in his own courtyard.

He spent all day cooking and painting, and his many artistic skills improved rapidly.

With the absorption of many skills, the major meridians in Li Hao's body were opened up. The 108 meridians plus the yin and yang meridians opened up the heaven and earth meridians for him.

The methods of refining souls and controlling objects have also been enhanced. If Li Hao can leave the Dead River safely, his Divine Wandering Realm and Fifteen-Li Realm will also be further improved. After all, the memories of cultivation here can be taken out.

At the age of eleven, Li Hao successfully entered the realm of Grandmaster and became a land immortal.

With the cooperation of the Heaven and Earth Meridians, Li Hao tried to push the rules, and it did work. Some of his previous cultivation memories leaked out more, making Li Hao always have a sense of paradox when he was practicing on weekdays, as if he had experienced it before.

This also greatly helped him in understanding his state of mind.

Now, Li Hao is focusing on the spiritual path of cooking.

One must successfully enter the spirit realm before the age of 18 to enter the Three Immortal Realms.

As Li Hao grew rapidly, the demon riots outside Longcheng became increasingly restless.

The harmonious and cheerful atmosphere in the General's Mansion gradually diminished. During most dinner times, Li Tianzong even stared at the maps and military books in a daze and did not even notice that the food had gotten cold.

The eldest brother Li Xingbei, the second brother Li Fengping and others also put on their armor and served in Longcheng to guard the city.

When they occasionally came back, most of them had a murderous aura on them, and were obviously stained with a lot of blood.

As the others grew older, they all left Qinglian Court. Some went out to explore the world, and some went to guard Longcheng. Qinglian Court became empty.

Li Hongzhuang is also nine years old. Her bones are measured to be a ninth-grade combat body, and she has top talent.

But when Li Tianzong saw his only daughter, he did not let her learn martial arts. Instead, he wanted her to be an ordinary girl, get married, and live a stable life.

Although practicing martial arts can provide for one's future, once one does so, one will not have peace of mind.

For example, if a border town is in trouble, if you don’t practice martial arts, you won’t want to go and provide reinforcements.

Once you step into the path of martial arts, it will be difficult to escape from the right and wrong, merits and demerits.

Li Hao could understand Li Tianzong's idea. Looking at Li Hongzhuang who almost died while guarding Tianmen Pass outside, he knew that if she didn't practice martial arts, at least she would live a much more comfortable life.

Given the Li family's wealth and status, her husband's family would not dare to mistreat her. At least she could live a peaceful and happy life.

However, the Li Hongzhuang here is sketching embroidery, but the Li Hongzhuang outside has already picked up the sword and walked onto the battlefield. This may be the fate in the Li family's bloodline.

Li Hao didn't know what Li Hongzhuang was like in her childhood, but he guessed that she was probably like she is now, she used to embroider like a lady from a noble family. However, everything was broken with the invasion of demons and the successive deaths of the nine sons of the Li family.

Li Hao took a deep breath. He knew that as he continued to grow, the history would soon overlap here.

At the age of thirteen, Li Hao entered the spiritual realm through cooking.

The strength of his own cultivation weakened the influence of the rules of the Dead River on him, and that ambiguous feeling helped him to successfully complete the spiritual entry.

As points were added, Li Hao also entered the Three Immortal Realms. Such growth surprised Li Tianzong, whose temples had gradually turned gray in the past two years, and the wrinkles between his brows were also alleviated a lot.

Li Hao also took the opportunity to propose that he wanted to go outside Longcheng to kill the demons.

He discussed with Li Xiaoran that if they grew fast enough, they could reduce some of the monsters in advance, and when they came to guard Dragon City, the pressure would be much less.

Li Tianzong was a little hesitant about this, but Li Xiaoran came forward and said that he would secretly protect Li Hao. Seeing this, Li Tianzong agreed and temporarily handed Tingyu Tower over to the care of the third brother Li Xuanyin.

Li Xiaoran has now found his Dao Heart and reached the Dao Heart state. He looked at Li Hao, who had entered the Three Immortal Realms at the age of 13, and smiled bitterly in his heart. This seemed to be faster than Li Hao's cultivation progress outside.

But here, Li Hao still needs to sleep, so he skipped a lot of time.

The total time they had been here was less than a month.

"Now that we have you as our helper, we can first get rid of the demons hiding in the city." Li Xiaoran said.

At this moment, Li Hao's strength is not much different from his original body outside the Dead River.

Li Hao had no objection to this. This familiar sense of power made him feel safe.

In addition to hunting down the demon kings in advance to ease the pressure on the day of defending Longcheng, Li Hao also wanted to use the corpses and blood of these demon kings to try out the evil skills he had deduced and practiced.

The skills he comprehended here were slightly different from those outside. For example, Li Tianzong wrote letters to borrow some unique skills from other divine generals' palaces, and exchanged them for the unique skills of Tingyu Tower. This also allowed Li Hao to deduce two unfamiliar skills by relying on the seventh level of physical body.

One is a method for strengthening the body, while the other is a method for refining the body.

However, this method of refining the body is a bit unorthodox and requires a large amount of the flesh and blood of demons.

Li Hao took this opportunity to hunt demons and practice.

As Li Hao walked out of the God General's Mansion, golden light gathered in front of his eyes and the words "Muohe" appeared.

Activate the second side quest, Explore.

Mission completion: 0%.

Li Hao was a little surprised, but then he thought about it and realized that this seemed to be the first time he walked out of the God General's Mansion while he was awake.

He had no idea whether he had left during the skipped time.
