The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 333: The Contest in the Imperial Palace (asking for monthly tickets)

The Canghai Divine Dynasty agreed to Li Hao's proposal.

Afterwards, the prince of the Divine Dynasty came and respectfully invited Li Hao to go to the Imperial Palace of the Canghai Divine Dynasty. He had to leave a blood mark on the stone dragon seal of the Divine Dynasty before he could become a worshiper of the Divine Dynasty.

When the Divine Dynasty is in trouble, activating the Emperor Stone Dragon Seal will call upon the priests in the Divine Dynasty. If the priests are unwilling to take action, they will be attacked by the Emperor Stone Dragon Seal and their cultivation will be damaged.

If the worshiper is unable to attend in person due to some matters, when the call is conveyed, he can also use the Emperor Stone Dragon Seal to reflect his avatar to participate in the battle, which can be regarded as contributing his part.

Simply put, this thing is equivalent to a kind of mandatory contract.

Li Hao knew that there is gain and loss, and that taking money from others to help them eliminate disasters was the same as offering incense.

In the realm of saints, incense is not only power, but also similar to the currency circulated by mortals. This is why it is extremely difficult to snatch incense from saints.

This is tantamount to robbing money from the hands of the rich, and it is both risking one's life.

This Jidao Mountain is not far from the imperial capital of the Canghai Divine Dynasty. There are three other people traveling with Li Hao, two men and one woman. One of them has a tall and straight figure, wearing a scarlet divine robe with a flowing luster. He holds a spear that seems to be made of lava, with a disdainful look in his eyes. He is accompanied by the prince of the Canghai Divine Dynasty.

The other man and woman also looked very young. The woman had silver eyes, which reminded Li Hao of the strange eyes of the Holy Son of Haoyue.

Obviously, those who can get the invitation from the Divine Dynasty are not simple at all.

The imperial city of the Canghai Divine Dynasty is extremely majestic, covering an area of ​​thousands of miles. The imperial palace is majestic, and dragon pillars with Canghai totems are coiled around it.

Led by Crown Prince Gui Haifeng, several people came to the Imperial Palace and met the Emperor of the Divine Dynasty.

Emperor Canghai sat upright on the dragon throne. He had long and narrow cheeks and a majestic appearance. He looked to be over sixty years old, with only a few white hairs at his temples.

I heard that he is a semi-saint, who has already stepped half a foot into the Tao, but has not yet condensed his own saintly way. He has an extremely long lifespan, thousands of concubines and beauties, and hundreds of children, many of whom have inherited his bloodline and have extraordinary talents. He is a strong man in the Tao realm.

Inside the court, there was a grand atmosphere, with all the civil and military officials standing in line, staring at the four newly appointed priests of the Canghai Divine Dynasty.

They must remember each other's appearance and warn the younger generations in their family to avoid provoking them in the future.

Those who have served in the Divine Dynasty for a long time know that they must teach their family descendants to keep their eyes open, otherwise it will easily bring disaster to the family.

"The four of you are all outstanding talents. Now you have become my Canghai's worshippers. As long as Canghai still exists, you will be worshipped by the four of you for generations, and your good names will be passed down!"

Emperor Canghai said to Li Hao and the other four people with a smile.

After a brief greeting, Emperor Canghai took out the Emperor Stone Dragon Seal and asked Li Hao and four others to drip blood.

After the blood was dripped, Emperor Canghai conferred titles on the four people in the main hall, granted them waist badges for offering sacrifices, and allowed them to enjoy the privileges of divine titles and even be able to deploy troops of up to 100,000 at close range within the Canghai Divine Dynasty. In addition, they also received salaries, but the gold and silver salaries were just embellishments.

Afterwards, he brought the four people to the inner hall, where only Emperor Canghai and the prince who was accompanying him were there, discussing the matter of incense.

"I have agreed to all your requests. Today, a master craftsman will come to measure the four golden statues. From now on, temples will be built for the four of you in various places in the Divine Dynasty. I will let the commander be responsible for spreading your good names and deeds in the city."

Emperor Canghai smiled and said, "The better your achievements are, and the more legendary your deeds are, the more incense you will receive, and it may even spread beyond your cities and spread to other places."

In addition to building temples, casting golden statues, spreading good reputation and other human guidance, if one's own reputation and deeds are extremely loud and spread, there will be spontaneous incense offerings.

Therefore, it is difficult to obtain incense, and those mortals will believe in the strongest saint. If you want them to convert to believe in yourself, you need to use many means.

Li Hao was well-known in the Dayu Divine Dynasty. Therefore, when all the incense offerings from the Jiang family were collected and the formation of the state capital where the Five Divine Generals' Mansion was located was no longer used to reverse the formation, the remaining scattered incense offerings would quickly be transferred to him, and the process would be effortless.

Seeing that the emperor was ready, Li Hao nodded without any objection.

"Your Majesty, when will Princess Yunji marry me?"

The red-robed young man holding the molten magic spear asked calmly.

"You can set the wedding date yourself." Emperor Canghai said with a smile.

"Then let's hold it right after I win the first place in this battle. We have to fight the three holy places later, so we won't have time to spare."

The red-robed young man said.

His words made the man and woman next to him frown slightly. The other party's words were calm and confident, which made them feel a little uncomfortable.

“It’s not that easy to get first place, right?”

The purple-robed young man next to him had cold eyes and said calmly that what he wanted in this battle was also the first place. If he couldn't even get the first place among the individual players, how could he compete with the geniuses of the three holy places and win the place to compete for the Canglan Realm.

"Ok?"

The red-robed young man glanced at him upon hearing this. His eyes suddenly turned cold, and he was filled with murderous intent:
"Do you have any objection?"

The purple-shirted young man narrowed his eyes and said, "I don't have any objections, I'm just afraid someone might get their tongue flicked by the wind!"

As he spoke, he looked towards Emperor Canghai, bowed slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, is the other party's marriage to Princess Yunji also a condition for becoming a worshiper? If so, can I add two more cities to the incense offerings if I have no princess I admire?"

Emperor Canghai was suddenly in a dilemma. Considering the other party's strength, he thought that offering incense from five cities was a reasonable price. If it was more, it would be uneconomical.

Unless the other party has hidden means that have not been fully revealed before, he cannot say anything final now.

While Emperor Canghai was thinking, the red-robed young man next to him smiled lightly, and then a strong red flame suddenly emanated from his body, as if he was going to set the imperial palace on fire.

"Your Majesty has granted me the incense of twelve cities and Princess Yunji. I am qualified and worthy!"

He turned around and faced the purple-robed young man, his eyes blazing with golden flames: "Who do you think you are? Are you worthy enough to bargain with me?"

The purple-shirted young man's face suddenly changed. These words were already quite unpleasant to hear. His expression became completely gloomy, and a hint of shock appeared in his eyes.

Incense from the twelve cities?
He thought that everyone was like him, wishing to offer incense to Wucheng!
"Your Majesty, he is the incense of the Twelve Cities?"

Next to her, the beautiful woman in cloud-like clothes had a look of surprise in her eyes, then frowned and asked Emperor Canghai.

Emperor Canghai knew that this kind of thing could not be concealed. After all, the incense offerings were real, and a little investigation would reveal the truth. He nodded slightly and said:
"Yes, Chi Guang Gong opened up the Five Extremes Realm, and his fire-related magical powers are extraordinary, so he has incense from twelve cities."

"Five Extremes?"

Hearing the words of Emperor Canghai, the purple-robed young man and the cloud-sleeved woman's eyes narrowed slightly. Those who can master the Five Extremes are at least at the level of the Holy Son of a Holy Land.

"Can I get the incense from the twelve cities with this? Then my price is too low!"

There was dissatisfaction and a hint of anger in the purple-shirted young man's eyes.

I actually have five cities, which is less than half of the other side.

"For a fellow like you, five cities are enough for you. In my opinion, you should give me these five cities."

Chi Guang looked at him coldly and disdainfully, not taking the other person seriously at all.

The purple-robed young man suddenly burst out with a mighty aura. In an instant, his hair turned golden and his divine power was released to the extreme. At the same time, he said with murderous intent in his eyes:
"Then let me give it a try. If I defeat you, the incense offerings from your twelve cities will belong to me. As for Princess Yunji, you should not marry her. Marry a stray dog ​​instead!"

Li Hao was also a little surprised. He thought that they were all from the ten cities, but he didn't expect that there was such a gap between them.

But it seems reasonable when you think about it, after all, they can't all be at the same level.

However, if you calculate it this way, I only got incense from ten cities, which seems to be a bit of a loss, and my bargaining skills are not good enough.

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Li Hao looked at the Great Emperor Canghai, but saw that he did not stop them. Obviously, if he stopped them, the spearhead would be transferred to the other party. It would be more appropriate for warriors to decide their affairs in a warrior way. Li Hao did not say much, but slowly stepped aside.

The woman in cloud-sleeved clothes noticed Li Hao's actions, raised her eyebrows slightly, glanced at him, and then quietly stepped aside.

Be it five cities or twelve cities, she also wanted to see whether these two people who were higher and lower than herself were worth it.

"court death!"

Seeing the other party humiliating him, the divine flame in Chi Guang's eyes suddenly burst out, and his figure suddenly flashed, and Guixu disappeared in an instant.

The purple-robed young man also teleported at the same time and also mastered the ultimate state of Guixu. With a bang, the void suddenly shook and a sea of ​​fire spread all around, trying to ignite the imperial palace.

But Emperor Canghai raised his hand slightly, and a magic circle condensed and covered the surroundings, isolating the flames and preventing even the temperature from infecting them.

“Purple Extreme Sky Micro!!”

The purple-robed young man roared suddenly, emitting a large amount of purple energy from his body, and the figure of an ancient emperor faintly appeared behind him.

The figure was blurry, but just an outline revealed the spirit of holding up the heavens and the earth, with a shocking sense of oppression.

Then he suddenly attacked, and the vague outline behind him was reflected on his palm, trying to suppress the red light with one palm.

Chi Guang raised his head and glanced, with sarcasm in his eyes, and then the divine flames on his body suddenly turned into golden fire, which seemed to be able to burn everything. The clothes of the young man in purple were also set on fire, and even his hair was burned.

Golden lines appeared on Chi Guang's forehead, and he whispered, "Flame Extreme Divine Power, Supreme Heart Flame!"

As he finished speaking, the laws around him condensed and waves of flames shot up into the sky. At the same time, the purple-shirted young man's body was also on fire and he screamed.

This scene made Li Hao and the woman in Yunshang look solemn. A hint of shock emerged in the eyes of the woman in Yunshang. Just now, Emperor Canghai said that the other party had extraordinary magical powers, but she didn't agree with it. But she didn't expect that he was so strong!

This is a top-notch magical power, and it has been cultivated to an extremely top-notch level. This magical power alone is difficult to guard against.

Li Hao looked at the purple-shirted young man whose body was scorched by golden flames. The flame came from his heart and aroused his anger, which was extremely difficult to guard against.

The supernatural power is a killing method mastered by the Tao realm. The opponent's supernatural power has already touched a hint of the charm of Taoism, and is not inferior to that of the Holy Son of Haoyue.

With his body burning with flames, the young man in purple clothes hurriedly teleported back to the abyss, but the flames remained and could not be extinguished.

He roared in pain, his whole body covered in purple light. The towering figure behind him grabbed it, and purple light burst out. After a long time, the fire was extinguished.

During this process, Chi Guang did not attack again, but just stared coldly.

When the flames died down, the purple-robed young man was found to be charred black and covered in cracks, looking extremely miserable.

His face turned extremely ugly. Thinking of the woman next to him, he hurriedly took out a set of robes from the space of heaven and earth and put them on. His whole body was covered with burns and cracks, but compared to the pain in his body, the humiliation in his heart made him more uncomfortable and angry.

"If it weren't for the fact that we are both worshippers of the same dynasty, I would kill you like killing a chicken!"

Chi Guang's eyes were cold and his words were merciless.

The purple-robed young man had a gloomy expression on his face and said nothing more. Although the words were unpleasant to hear and made him angry, he knew that saying more would only bring humiliation upon himself.

Emperor Canghai raised his hand and released a magical power, which turned into a hazy green light and enveloped the young man in purple. It quickly accelerated the healing of his body and subsided his injuries.

"You two will fight on behalf of our Canghai Divine Dynasty. Please do not hurt the harmony. The incense promised to the four of you is only temporary, not forever. The stronger you perform in the Supreme Pride Battle, the more incense you will get."

Emperor Canghai smiled and said:

"If you can represent my Canglan Realm in the battle, your names will spread throughout the thirty-three realms, and you will naturally receive more incense. I will also send incense to ten more cities."

Hearing his words, Chi Guang's eyes were calm, and he said, "To defeat the saints of the three holy places and compete for one of the ten places is as difficult as ascending to heaven for some people. For me, they are the ones who should be worried about."

Hearing his confident words, the purple-robed young man would have sneered before, but now he was silent. Although the confrontation just now was brief, he had already felt the gap between them.

He has a trace of ancient imperial blood in his body. He was originally a young genius who stood out from his own sect and family. In the end, in the battle of geniuses gathered from dozens of dynasties, he was only an outstanding one, but not the best.

The woman in Yunshang next to him glanced at Chi Guang and said nothing more. She was not sure she could handle the other party's fire-based magical power.

Li Hao glanced at the Emperor Canghai, thought about it, and said nothing.

The other party will give him more incense based on his strength performance. When he has shown enough strength, the other party will increase it for him without him asking.

In the world of warriors, strength is the only voice.

This is even more vividly reflected in this holy land.

"What about him, is he also from Gojo?"

The young man in purple suddenly looked at Li Hao. He had a feeling that he seemed to be the one with the least incense.

Doesn't this mean that he is the weakest one here?

"He is the incense of ten cities."

Emperor Canghai smiled and said, "The swordsmanship of Qingfeng Gong has entered the Dao, but the ultimate state has not yet been achieved. Maybe the incense offerings are not enough, but after waiting for Qingfeng Gong's performance in the future, if he can represent my Canglan Realm in the battle, I will increase it as appropriate."

"Ten cities?"

Hearing the words of Emperor Canghai, the purple-robed young man's face suddenly changed. It turned out that his strength was twice as strong as his own.

The woman in Yunshang also fixed her eyes and glanced at Li Hao. Swordsmanship? This is a semi-saint-level swordsmanship. The other party actually mastered it. Even if he was slack in the extreme realm, it was still extremely terrifying.

Just this sword technique is enough to make people fear him.

Chi Guang raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Li Hao. Even he did not possess the techniques to enter the Tao. His fire-based magical powers could only be regarded as touching a trace of the Tao, and he had not yet entered the Tao.

The battle for geniuses is limited to those under a hundred years old. To enter the Dao in less than a hundred years, even if one concentrates on studying techniques, is already an extremely top-notch monstrous talent.

With the fight with Chi Guang just now, the purple-shirted young man did not doubt Li Hao at this moment. After all, his swordsmanship at the entry-level level was enough to convince people.

After everyone agreed, a master craftsman came to measure their figures and draw their outlines.

While painting, Li Hao became interested and took over the pen and ink from the assistant of the dynasty's chief painter and started drawing for a few people.

In addition to drawing the other three people, Li Hao mainly drew the Great Emperor Canghai.

After all, he is a semi-saint and has considerable experience in painting.

As each painting was completed, based on the experience gained, Li Hao discovered that the woman in cloud-colored clothes had more painting experience than the young man in purple clothes. It seemed that the other party had also obtained more incense cities.

The woman in Yunshang has nearly 20,000 experience points in painting.

However, the young man in purple shirt has about 15,000.

The amount of painting experience that Chi Guang brought was as high as 35,000, nearly twice that of the woman in Yunshang, which showed that he still had hidden strength.

Now as his painting skills improved, Li Hao found that the experience gained seemed to be compressed. Originally, when he was in the Four Stages of Painting, he could gain tens of thousands of points of experience, but now when he was in the Four Stages of Painting, the experience gained was pitifully small, and it seemed that he only had thousands of points.
