The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 306: Hearing the Truth (Second Update)

When the imperial edict was transmitted to the 19 states, Li Hao also returned to Tianmen Pass in Liangzhou.

Familiar city walls, familiar flags. At this time, the news had not yet arrived and the soldiers stationed here were still unaware of it.

Li Hao did not disturb others and quietly returned to the small courtyard.

The sword-practicing girl in the courtyard sensed the boy's presence and was startled from her practice. She looked up at Li Hao with a look of surprise on her face:

"Master, you are back."

Beside him, the Sword Demon Jiang Lichen looked at Li Hao, his eyes suddenly fixed.

In a short period of time, he felt that Li Hao's aura seemed to have become much more restrained, like the vast and unfathomable starry sky, standing quietly, but his every move seemed to contain the power to move the stars.

Li Hao glanced at Ren Qianqian. The girl was fifteen years old, one year younger than him, but she had already entered the realm of heaven and man.

"Did you teach this?"

Li Hao looked at Jiang Lichen.

Jiang Lichen curled his lips and said, "I can't teach her the heart of a god. She realized it on her own. She probably learned something from you after being with a monster like you for a long time."

When Ren Qianqian heard this, her cheeks slightly blushed. Originally, she followed Li Hao because she wanted to surpass her father and become a master of heaven and man, but her life goal was achieved after just two years.

Now her talent and strength are already ranked among the top five on the Qiankun list.

And this is because she keeps a low profile and only practices cultivation without fighting with others.

Li Hao nodded and smiled at Ren Qianqian, "Now that you are by my side, your wish has been fulfilled. Do you still want to follow me? You are still young, you can take advantage of your youth to travel around the world and see the world."

Ren Qianqian quickly shook her head and said, "No, I want to continue practicing. I want to accompany the young master to see the scenery on the top of the mountain."

Li Hao was helpless and said, "But I don't want to climb the mountain. There is only one kind of scenery at the top of the mountain, but the scenery at the foot of the mountain is diverse."

Ren Qianqian was stunned, and immediately said: "Then I will stay with the young master at the foot of the mountain and watch the smoke from the cooking fires rise up from the world."

"You are quite good at rhyming." Li Hao smiled.

Ren Qianqian's cheeks turned slightly red.

Li Hao did not try to persuade him any further. Instead, he used his mind to sweep the area, but he did not see Old Feng. He then used his mind to cover the entire city, but still could not sense anything. He was stunned and asked immediately:

"Where's Mr. Feng?"

By now, Ren Qianqian already knew Feng Boping's name and identity. When Li Hao asked about it, she quickly said:

"Not long after you left, Senior Feng suddenly regained consciousness, as if he was a different person. He told us that he was leaving and asked me to tell you when you come back that he would be waiting for you at the Land of All Saints."

"Ok?"

Li Hao was stunned and a little surprised. This was a bit too sudden.

But soon, he thought of his death in Hanoi.

Did Feng Lao go to the Land of Saints?
"Your old friend is most likely the incarnation of a saint, who is reincarnating to practice cultivation."

Jiang Lichen said to Li Hao: "Although this kind of thing is rare, it is not uncommon. Among the peerless geniuses in my Dayu Dynasty for thousands of years, there are such people. They just practiced in a low-key manner and disappeared abruptly after rising for a period of time. It's like they appeared out of nowhere and fell quickly again."

Li Hao was silent for a moment. Being in the Saint Realm and mastering all kinds of abilities were beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

However, although the world is big, there is still a chance to meet each other.

But there is one less old friend in this world.

Li Hao glanced towards the courtyard and asked, "Where are those two?"

Refers to Ying Xiaoxiao and the old man at the tea stall.

"I heard that he went to collect the murderous grudges."

Jiang Lichen asked, "Is there another war outside?"

Li Hao nodded: "The Imperial Palace was almost destroyed."

The request for help from the imperial city was not sent to Tianmen Pass, which was rapidly attacked by demons, and the soldiers far away at the border were unaware of it.

Although Dayu's intelligence transmission was fast, his territory was too vast.

Hearing Li Hao's words, Ren Qianqian who was standing beside him was horrified. That was the Imperial Palace, the most supreme place in her heart, and it was almost destroyed.

Compared to her, Jiang Lichen only raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Since you can come back, the trouble there should be solved, right?"

"Ah."

Li Hao said: "But it seems that many royal family members were killed. Don't you want to go and take a look?"

Jiang Lichen's eyes flickered and he said indifferently: "I have no children to worry about, and no lover or wife, so there is nothing to see."

Li Hao could see that he had a story in his mind, but he didn't ask much. Some things that were accumulated could not be resolved in a few words.

As Li Hao settled down in the courtyard, the imperial edict spread to all states. While the outside world was discussing it fiercely, Li Hao took Ren Qianqian to fish in the Demon Lake hundreds of miles outside the Great Wall.

To Li Hao's regret, perhaps because he had killed too many people here before and the deterrent effect was too strong, the monster sat by the lake for a whole day. Apart from eating four or five oranges, he gained nothing that day.

It seems that all the demons were scared away... Li Hao thought to himself, this is why he was left empty-handed.

He did not use his divine sense to explore the bottom of the lake. As a fisherman, his pride lies in his fishing skills and his vision of the water area. If he used his divine sense, it would be no different from directly casting a net, and there would be no sense of accomplishment.

As dusk approached, Li Hao returned carrying a demon that he had killed in the mountains.

"We're having roasted demon pig tonight."

Li Hao returned to the small courtyard with fence.

"Master, is this what you fished for?" "Yes."

"But this seems to be a demon in the mountains."

“It’s amphibious.”

"Oh…"

After a simple meal, Li Hao replenished his chess pieces to 180.

Late at night, he came to the top of the mountain where he and Feng Lao often sat in the past, carrying a pot of wine alone, drinking here while admiring the cold moonlight.

After finishing the wine in the pot, Li Hao opened his palm and the gold paper of the Dead River emerged, on which were recorded several of his good deeds in the Dead River.

Li Hao's mind sank into the gold paper and soon entered the treasure house of merit.

Many meritorious treasures are displayed inside, floating like golden balls, and can be exchanged for merits.

Li Hao looked at the power to defy fate. Originally, this thing was extremely useful, equivalent to a second life, but now he was facing beings in the realm of Wen Dao, who could conceal the secrets of heaven and had little meaning to him.

Li Hao flipped through it and saw that in addition to divine power, the ultimate realm could also be exchanged for the veins of heaven and earth.

However, the Heaven and Earth Vein requires 30,000 merits and 10,000 divine powers.

But there is no Dharma image of heaven and earth, nor any of the other extreme realms that follow.

The things that can be exchanged are quite limited. To others they may all be treasures that make their blood boil, but to Li Hao, he can only pick and choose.

The fruit of Wen Dao can help one to hear the Dao, but it is only a probability and not a guarantee of success.

Li Hao planned to exchange one, but he didn't plan to use it for practicing, but for cooking.

Now that his physical body has reached the eighth level, he wants to add more points, but is reminded that he needs to enter the Dao.

I think that to advance the culinary path to the eighth level bottleneck, one also needs a heart of Tao to continue to climb. If this Wen Dao Fruit is used in cooking, it will be relatively easier to enter the Tao.

The prerequisite is that he must first upgrade the cooking path to level 8, otherwise the probability of hearing the path will decrease.

In addition, Li Hao actually saw the state of mind exchanges such as Poetry Heart and Carving Heart in it.

Just like Kenshin, you only need 100 merit points.

Li Hao exchanged it without saying a word.

However, apart from entering the heart, there was no exchange for entering the soul, which made Li Hao quite regretful.

Otherwise, his current chess, fishing and other arts could all be spiritualized, and with the help of the spiritual state of mind, he could improve his swordsmanship, body movements, etc. to above the seventh level.

The attributes that Li Hao now possesses are:
The physical way is 8 stages, the control way is 7 stages, the body movement way is 6 stages, the sword way is 6 stages, and the boxing way is 6 stages.

In terms of arts and skills: chess 6 sections, music 4 sections, poetry and calligraphy 3 sections, carving 3 sections, cooking 7 sections, painting 7 sections, fishing 5 sections.

Remaining art points: 1 points.

With the exchange of the two states of mind of poetry, calligraphy and sculpture, Li Hao's poetry, calligraphy and sculpture were immediately upgraded to the 4th level, breaking the bottleneck.

You can accumulate experience again until the sixth bottleneck.

Art points also increased to 3 points.

The continuous battles made Li Hao unable to calm down and practice for a long time.

He was not in a hurry to exchange for the Wen Dao Fruit, but instead improved his cooking experience first.

In the following days, everyone saw that Li Hao would bring back a demon from outside the Great Wall every day and treat the whole city to a banquet.

The delicacies from the mountains and the sea cooked by many demons were served on the tables of the soldiers in the city, satisfying the appetite of everyone in the city.

Li Hao transformed himself into a cook and devoted himself to cultivation.

A few months later.

With the cooking monster king coming one after another, Tianmen Pass has become a food capital, attracting many people from all over the world to come here.

Now that the war is over, the top demon forces outside the borders of Dayu have been basically wiped out. The demon forces of the Xingyue Academy, which is secretly controlled by Emperor Yu, have gathered demons from all sides to form the largest demon force today.

The dynasty was under the rule of Emperor Yu, and so were the demons outside the Great Wall.

The states that had been plagued by wars in recent years have finally rested and calmed down.

Such stability has led to frequent commercial trade in various states, and more and more people are traveling around. In Tianmen Pass, many of Li Hao’s former friends and disciples of Tan Palace Academy have come here to travel and visit.

In the small courtyard with fences, Xiyan transformed herself into a girl in a red dress and followed Li Hao.

Song Qiumo also arrived. Li Hao mentioned it to Emperor Yu. She now enjoys the honor of being the sacred beast of Dayu. A temple was built for her. She received the symbols of the magic arrays of various states on her waist badge, and she can enter and leave the entire territory of Dayu freely.

In Li Hao's space of heaven and earth, Candle Fire God and his wife absorbed the relic of the Buddha. This relic retained the power of the unity of Buddha and devil. It happened that Candle Fire God and Madam Yin were twins. After absorbing this thing, their bodies began to fuse and formed a big ball. It was unknown when they would wake up.

As for Li Qianfeng, who had been thrown into the space of heaven and earth and whose cultivation was destroyed, Li Hao had someone send him back to the Li family, thus ending this old feud.

As the number of cooking times increased, and the ingredients were all demon king-level, all the demon kings outside Liangzhou were killed by Li Hao, so he went to Dahuangtian to capture some.

In less than half a year, he finally accumulated 8 levels of experience in cooking.

Li Hao did not hesitate. After his experience reached a bottleneck, he found an isolated peak and exchanged it for the Wen Dao Fruit in the Treasure House of Merit.

This Wen Dao fruit is like emerald green glass all over, with spots on it. It contains a bright glow and emits bursts of strange fragrance.

Li Hao took a look at it and then ate it and swallowed it.
