The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 533: Asking for the Mountain

"It's you?"

On the way to collect the corpses of the ancient demon, Li Hao met a disciple of Dameng Jiuyuan.

Lin Mingrong's clothes were torn and she looked injured. Although her injuries had healed, her disheveled hair showed that she had suffered a hard battle.

When she met Li Hao in mid-air, she was a little dazed, and surprise suddenly flashed in her eyes.

Li Hao's performance in the Ancient Fairyland made her deeply feel the gap between her and this young man. Her master also told her privately that the latter would definitely have an amazing performance in the Southern Territory Battle and would be expected to break into the top ten.

Now that I have met Li Hao, I feel like I have found my backbone.

"You are hurt?"

Li Hao had some impression of this woman. He followed her to the palace of the Great Dream Lord and was misunderstood by her. However, they had no interaction afterwards.

"fine."

Lin Mingrong shook her head, but her eyes quickly glanced at Gu Xingwan and Lin Qingying beside Li Hao. There was a hint of disappointment in her eyes, but it was fleeting. She said to Li Hao: "Can I stay with you? I already have Daohuo, and I'm worried that it will be snatched away by others."

As she spoke, she took out the Taoist fire in her hand, fearing that Li Hao would misunderstand.

Li Hao was used to having Gu Xingwan as a burden by his side, so he said, "It's okay, just follow me."

The Great Dream Master had also told him before that if he met any disciples from the same sect in there, he should help them if he could, but the premise should still be based on his own convenience.

Lin Mingrong breathed a sigh of relief, immediately put away the Dao Fire, and followed Li Hao.

Li Hao sped all the way, and soon he met Gu Yan and Yue Xi again.

The two looked a little embarrassed, obviously having experienced a tough battle, but Li Hao discovered that Gu Yan's aura was stronger than before, and his whole body felt sharp, as if he had improved in swordsmanship.

Knowing that they had already hunted down the Dao Fire, Li Hao did not mention giving away the Dao Fire.

Then he took them to other ancient demon gathering places to collect the corpses of the ancient demons.

Several people asked Li Hao curiously about his strange behavior, but Li Hao just evaded the question with answers.

As time passed, more and more ancient demon corpses were collected along the way, and more disciples of Dameng Jiuyuan were encountered one after another.

Some of them had not yet hunted for Dao Fire, so Li Hao took out hundreds of Dao Fires he had collected and gave them to them.

These disciples couldn't help but feel surprised and grateful for Li Hao's generosity, as this was a free gift that allowed them to enter the second round.

Hunting for Dao Fire is not easy, but for a fighter of Li Hao's strength, it is an easy task. But for others, it is a life-and-death struggle.

After the ancient demon gathering places were wiped out one by one, the trial in the True Immortal Secret Realm was nearing its end.

Most of the people wandering in the secret realm are in groups of three or five, traveling together, and only a few still act alone.

"It seems that Chi Yun can't be found."

"It seems that they have all been wiped out."

"On my way here, I heard that someone single-handedly wiped out a gathering place of ancient demons. It was very scary."

Li Hao, along with Lin Qingying, Gu Yan and other disciples of Dameng Jiuyuan, continued to search for the trace of the ancient demon. However, the red cloud that could be seen from afar before had now disappeared without a trace, so they could only look for the lone ancient demon.

"The trial should be over soon."

Lin Mingrong looked at the time and said in a low voice.

Yue Xi frowned and said, "Why don't I see Senior Sister Qing Wu? Could she have had an accident?"

When Gu Yan heard this, a hint of worry appeared in his calm eyes.

Li Hao glanced at the two of them and thought to himself that with Murong Qingwu's combat power, there was still hope for her to hunt down the Dao Fire, unless something unexpected happened.

"Why are you here?"

Suddenly, a group of figures came flying from the front, all wearing silver-white sword robes and looking very majestic.

When one of them saw Li Hao, his expression changed slightly, and then he saw Lin Qingying beside Li Hao, and couldn't help but frowned and asked.

As the Tianyi Sword Sect of Yan Chu, Wanshan Sword Tower is home to almost all the sword disciples in the entire Immortal Dynasty. However, within Dameng Jiuyuan, there is also Jianyuan, and everyone knows that he has been trying to seize the position of Tianyi Sect for many years. Therefore, the relationship between Wanshan Sword Tower and Dameng Jiuyuan is not harmonious.

"Brother Baiying."

When Lin Qingying saw the other person, she nodded and called out, which counted as a greeting.

"They are disciples of Da Meng Jiu Yuan, come here quickly."

The young man looked unhappy and said to Lin Qingying.

Lin Qingying shook his head and said, "I have already obtained the Dao Fire. I just need to wait until the trial is over. Brothers, please take care of yourselves."

"you!"

Zhao Baiying's face changed and he asked, "Are you planning to betray the sect?"

Lin Qingying frowned and said, "I am just traveling with you. I have never talked about the sect's affairs, and I will not betray the sect."

"Then come back. Are they blackmailing you?"

Zhao Baiying glanced at Li Hao and others, revealing his vigilance.

Lin Qingying shook her head and said, "I have friends here, I will be fine."

"Friend, who?"

Zhao Baiying glanced at Li Hao and the others, and noticed that Lin Qingying was standing next to Li Hao. His face changed, and he said in a low voice: "Aren't you worried that the senior brother will blame you?"

When he mentioned Tian Hongyi, Lin Qingying's calm expression suddenly turned cold, and he said:
"Why does he blame me?"

"Big Brother is extremely talented. Everyone knows that he likes you. You..."

Zhao Baiying couldn't help but say.

Lin Qingying's face suddenly changed, and she said angrily: "Who he likes is his own business. I have already told him that I have someone in my heart, and asked him to stop bothering me."

"you……"

Zhao Baiying was furious and said, "How many saint girls from other sects want to be favored by Senior Brother, but they can't get it. Before entering the secret realm, Senior Brother even asked me to take good care of you when I see you, but you don't appreciate it at all?!"

"I have already told him clearly that even if the empress falls in love with him, it has nothing to do with me, Lin Qingying."

Lin Qingying had a cold face. While she was speaking, her eyes swept over Li Hao, as if she was worried that Li Hao would misunderstand.

"You take yourself too seriously. If it weren't for my senior brother, I..."

Zhao Baiying laughed angrily.

Before he could finish his words, Li Hao interrupted him and said, "Since we are both from the Yanchu Immortal Dynasty, I don't want to embarrass you. But if you are too self-righteous, I don't mind sending you packing."

He said it calmly, but Zhao Baiying's face suddenly changed.

"you."

Zhao Baiying stared at Li Hao and clenched his fists.

The other Wanshan Sword Tower disciples behind him also changed color and looked at Li Hao in shock and anger.

This was too presumptuous of him to say this, he didn't take them seriously at all.

But thinking of the performance of this young man in the ancient fairyland, who trampled on the royal Chu Tianzheng with the true fairyland, although they didn't know whether Li Hao borrowed the external force of fairy treasures in that battle, it still left a deep impression in their hearts.

"You are so cruel. I hope you can make it to the end. Senior Brother will teach you a lesson!"

Zhao Baiying suppressed his anger and said to Li Hao through gritted teeth.

Then he was ready to wave his hand and signal retreat.

But there was a hint of coldness in Li Hao's eyes. He wanted to leave after saying such harsh words?
"If you talk too much, then stay!"

He raised his hand, a sword energy condensed at his fingertips, and then suddenly burst out.

The sword energy contained the power of time and space. It arrived in an instant, was released in an instant, and hit Zhao Baiying's body in an instant, splitting his body in half!

The sword struck in the past before he could react. The damage caused in the past appeared at this moment, as if it was the power of cause and effect and destiny.

Bang!
Zhao Baiying's body exploded, and his soul rushed out from inside, his face full of horror, but before he could shout, his soul suddenly trembled, then cracked, and turned into golden fragments of light, which shattered and dissipated in mid-air. The other disciples of Wanshan Sword Tower were stunned when they saw this scene, and then they were horrified.

Senior Brother Zhao Baiying, who was one of the strongest among them, was killed in an instant, and even his soul was shattered. This was too horrifying!

You know, Zhao Baiying's soul broke through the limit, condensed the soul's golden veins, and gave birth to two soul's golden bones!

With such strength, he was actually destroyed by the sword energy condensed by Li Hao casually. This is too horrifying!

"escape!"

The others reacted quickly as if they had encountered an ancient demon, and fled in all directions in panic, fearing that Li Hao would kill them all.

But Li Hao was not a bloodthirsty person, and he did not chase after the other party. When the other party's body broke into pieces and fell to the ground, the coldness on his face also disappeared.

"Let's go."

Li Hao waved his hand and spoke calmly as if nothing had happened.

The faces of many Dameng Jiuyuan disciples behind him changed dramatically. Although they had met Li Hao and seen how decisively Li Hao killed the ancient demon, Zhao Baiying was extremely famous in Wanshan Sword Tower and was definitely not comparable to the ancient demon. The other party also had the ability to hunt dozens of ancient demons, but was easily killed by Li Hao.

Gu Yan's eyes froze slightly, and he looked at Li Hao's back in a trance.

The sword light that Li Hao just condensed was extremely wonderful, and it made him feel amazing.

The opponent was actually far superior to him in the field of kendo, which was his proudest area.

Time and space are contained in the sword, but unfortunately, he has never comprehended the origin of time.

"What a fast sword, a sword that can cut through time..."

Gu Yan muttered to himself in a low voice, with a complicated look in his eyes.

I thought I was slowly getting closer to the other person, but unexpectedly I was left further away.

"If I kill him, will it affect you?"

Li Hao suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Qingying.

Lin Qingying was stunned, then shook her head and said, "It's okay, it wasn't me who did it anyway."

Li Hao nodded. He knew that this place was reflected outside the secret realm, and the elders of the Wanshan Sword Tower sect outside should have witnessed the whole process.

"Come back after this battle in the Southern Territory is over."

Li Hao said to Lin Qingying.

When she first came to the real world, she was unfamiliar with the place, so letting her become a disciple at Wanshan Sword Tower was a good place to go.

The same is true for Master Feng and their saints, scattered all over the place.

But now that the battle in the Southern Region is over, Li Hao believes that he has the ability to protect them and there is no need to disperse them anymore.

"it is good."

Lin Qingying nodded in agreement without any hesitation, with a happy smile in her eyes.

But soon, she thought of something, and a sigh appeared in her eyes. She said, "But before I leave, I want to say goodbye to my master. He has been very caring towards me, and Wanshan Sword Tower has also been kind to me. I want to find a way to repay them for this kindness."

"Ah."

Li Hao nodded and did not stop it. It was common sense to repay a favor.

Although he had just killed the genius of the other sword sect, the two things were not in conflict.

At least in his opinion, one thing is one thing.

Unless the other party can't figure it out.

Gu Xingwan glanced at Lin Qingying and asked Li Hao, "Have you known each other for a long time?"

"Ah."

Li Hao nodded.

When Lin Qingying heard Li Hao's response, a smile appeared on her lips.

There was a complexity and some loss in Gu Xingwan's eyes.

As everyone continued to search, time passed, and suddenly a majestic and loud voice sounded in the sky:
"The secret realm trial is about to end, and there is only one hour left."

This last hour is a reminder to those who have not yet hunted down the Dao Fire.

Soon, among the wandering disciples, some who did not get the Dao Fire became anxious and searched everywhere for the ancient demon.

But most of the ancient demons were wiped out in the various gathering places, and only a very few survived.

Moreover, some people, like Li Hao, have collected a lot of Dao Fire, which means that more people are destined to be unable to advance.

The last hour passed quickly, and Li Hao and others felt that the world around them suddenly became quiet. Then, their bodies were wrapped by a force. When the scene in front of them suddenly changed, they could see clearly again and found that they were already standing outside the True Immortal Secret Realm.

"Come out, come out?"

"I haven't hunted down the Dao Fire yet. Am I eliminated?"

"Almost, I was so close to killing that ancient demon, ahhhh, why is this happening!"

There were noisy sounds coming from everywhere.

Li Hao turned his head and saw Lin Qingying and others were beside him, standing not far from the ancient mirror that was used to measure the soul's lifespan.

He glanced around and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lord Dream and the others were still standing on the top of the mountain.

At this time, dozens of figures appeared out of thin air in another void, all emitting a powerful aura.

Those are all in the Immortal King realm.

Li Hao was surprised when he saw that one of Chu Tianhuang's sleeves was torn, as if he had been through a great battle.

"The first level of the trial is over. Now, those who have Dao Fire in their hands, please take out your Dao Fire."

In front, the commander of the Immortal Guards spoke loudly.

The disciples looked at each other in bewilderment. Those who didn't have Dao Fire in their hands looked around with resentment in their eyes.

Li Hao, Lin Qingying and others took out the Taoist fire.

At this time, there were bursts of exclamations from the crowd.

I saw several figures taking out a large amount of Taoist fire in their hands and gathering it above their heads.

Li Hao saw that among them was the more flamboyant young man from the ancient god clan.

"So many fires!"

"I was wondering why I couldn't find it or hunt it down. Turns out they took it!"

"Asshole, one Dao Fire is enough to clear the level, why do you need so much?!"

Many people who did not have Dao Fire were complaining and looking angrily at the young man from the Ancient God Clan and others.

In addition to them, there were some people who had three, five, or even more than ten Dao fires in their hands, but compared with the hundreds of Dao fires held by Shen Wuji and others, they were insignificant.

The wailing here made the people from the Immortal King Realm group look over, but soon their eyes became indifferent, showing a bit of cold contempt for those wailing people, and then they withdrew their gaze.

"Congratulations to those who hold Dao Fire. You have passed the first trial!"

The Immortal Guard Commander ignored the wailing and resentment and spoke loudly.

Many people who held Dao Fire showed joy in their eyes.

However, most people looked calm, with anticipation in their eyes for the upcoming battle.

"Those without Dao Fire, please return to your own sect. For those who have perished in the secret realm, the Supreme will give them a chance to reincarnate through their soul hearts."

The leader of the Immortal Guards looked around, and finally glanced at Li Hao and other Dao Fire holders, and said: "Those who have passed the first trial are ready to proceed to the second trial. As top geniuses, in addition to combat power, they also need to have an extraordinary Dao heart!"
