Imperial City Ruins, opportunities refreshed daily

Chapter 180 A Dao Realm Expert Attacks

In the following days, Xu Hao returned to his state of enjoying himself and teaching the three women.

Xuan Qingxiao, Qin Feixue, and Tang Wan'er's cultivation levels increased extremely rapidly. Even Tang Wan'er, whose cultivation level was the lowest, was almost at the peak of the Heavenly Rank.

Needless to say, Qin Feixue and Xuan Qingxiao had already begun preparing resources to condense their Golden Cores, in preparation for entering the Spirit Rank cultivation.

The reason why people find it difficult to advance to the Spirit Rank is not because they lack the necessary aptitude, but because they lack specific cultivation techniques and resources.

Especially resources.

Some resources are extremely scarce, and in our current state of limited understanding of the universe, they can only be found in ancient ruins.

The treasures found in ancient ruins often lack certain unique energy substances, making advancement difficult.

But Xu Hao's situation is different; he can find resources at a higher level.

Even the scraps he didn't want after he finished cultivating were extremely valuable resources for Xuan Qingxiao and the others.

In particular, the fact that Xu Hao had some remaining Nascent Soul level resources from his previous cultivation, even just a tiny bit of which was leaked, was enough to shock Xuan Qingxiao, Qin Feixue, and the others.

"With these, I'm confident I can advance to the Spirit Rank!" Xuan Qingxiao was the first to guarantee.

The resources at the Nascent Soul level were terrifying; just the fact that they were taken out made them feel as if they were enveloped in a massive energy tide.

Even without the whole thing, just half, Xuan Qingxiao felt she could condense a golden core.

Moreover, it is an extremely high-grade Golden Core.

"Yes, I'm confident too!" Qin Feixue echoed.

They are inherently very talented.

With these opportunities at two levels higher, if they still can't succeed, they might as well buy a block of tofu and smash their heads against it.

The key to condensing the Golden Elixir lies in its very first core.

Within Taoism, the best approach is to be close to nature and use innate spiritual objects that align with one's own attributes to solidify one's foundation.

What Xu Hao took out was either an otherworldly spirit crystal or a high-grade energy crystal without any special properties, such as a three-colored energy crystal.

For Xuan Qingxiao, Qin Feixue, and others within the Daoist system, this was the greatest opportunity.

Therefore, after several days of reflection, Xuan Qingxiao and Qin Feixue began to prepare to condense their golden cores.

Xu Hao had nothing to do for a while, so after helping Tang Wan'er, he also helped Xu Qianzhi.

Although Xu Qianzhi lacked talent and was old, with ample energy to nourish him, he had cultivated the sixth realm of body refinement to an extremely high level and was preparing to advance to the Earth Rank.

Everything is moving in a positive direction.

Meanwhile, in the area south of the Eastern Extreme Domain, Prime Minister Liu Tianheng in white robes was trapped in a massive formation.

"I am willing to submit. I am a disciple of the Four Symbols Sect, and I am willing to submit!"

The white-robed prime minister, Liu Tianheng, no longer possessed the arrogance and absolute control he had shown in the Eastern Extremity.

Because he discovered that the outside world was truly too bleak after leaving the Eastern Pole Region.

For example, right now, they were all being extremely careful, but when they entered a forest and prepared to spend the night there, they discovered that they were surrounded by a valley.

Moreover, the valley was filled with mysterious array patterns.

At this moment, many of their powerful warriors had died, and they were on the verge of total annihilation. Liu Tianheng had no choice but to resort to his few remaining strengths in the hope of salvaging the situation.

"Oh?" The moment Liu Tianheng finished speaking, an old man outside the dangerous area immediately showed a strange expression.

boom.

As a burst of energy spread out, the previously rampant formation in the valley immediately subsided.

In an instant, the old man stepped into the array.

He looked at Liu Tianheng, who had spoken, and said in a deep voice, "You say you are a member of the Four Symbols Sect, what evidence do you have?"

Upon realizing that his identity was actually having an effect outside the Eastern Extreme Region, Prime Minister Liu Tianheng, dressed in white, quickly took out an identity token from his robes and respectfully held it above his head with both hands. "I am Liu Tianheng, currently a successor of the Four Symbols Sect. Please enlighten me, senior!"

Whoosh.

With a wave of his hand, the token in Liu Tianheng's hand flew out and landed in the old man's hand in the blink of an eye.

The old man examined it repeatedly and confirmed that the token was genuine, and that there was even a trace of essence blood on it, confirming that it was indeed a token of the Four Symbols Sect.

He then raised his head and asked again, "I remember the Four Symbols Gate is in the east. How did you manage to travel all this way to this side?"

"We've been driven away!" Prime Minister Liu Tianheng in white robes hurriedly replied.

He had already determined that the other party had some connection with the Four Symbols Sect, so he no longer concealed anything and described in an exaggerated manner how he and his companions left the Eastern Extreme Region.

He also wanted to gamble that the old man in front of him had a great karmic entanglement with the Four Symbols Sect.

Moreover, it was a friendly sect.

Although friendly relations within the heretical sects are as meaningless as farting, Liu Tianheng still noticed that this thing was somewhat similar to the demon-refining method recorded by the Four Symbols Sect when he was trapped inside the formation.

However, Liu Tianhai was still not quite sure.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

Because they were like fish on a chopping block, he could only hope for this outcome; otherwise, they would be killed by the old man in an instant!
"Hmph!" The old man snorted coldly, then turned to look at Liu Tianheng and said in a deep voice, "I remember that your Four Symbols Sect went to the Eastern Extreme Region to find the Demon Sealing Ground of the Shu Sect, right?"
"Since you have inherited the legacy of the Four Symbols Sect, do you know the location of the Demon Sealing Ground?"

Mount Shu suppresses demons, while the Four Symbols Demon Sect refines demons.

Therefore, in ancient times, the Four Symbols Demon Sect wanted to find the place where demons were sealed in Mount Shu, and even wanted to break the place where demons were sealed in Mount Shu.

Unfortunately, the area around Mount Shu is guarded by powerful figures.

The Four Symbols Demon Sect wanted to seize the opportunity presented by the weakening of the world's hierarchy to find a chance to advance, but instead of finding a chance, they themselves became weaker.

"Found it!" Prime Minister Liu Tianheng in white struggled for a moment before immediately reporting.

Since the other party asked, they must know about the Four Symbols Sect.

This can be seen from the fact that he stopped earlier, indicating that the old man has an inexplicable causal connection with the Four Symbols Sect.

Moreover, Liu Tianheng himself went to this mysterious area to find powerful individuals to attack the capital of the Great Xuan Dynasty.

Now, it's a good opportunity to use someone else's help to go to the Great Xuan Dynasty and fight against Xu Hao.

In that case, he could reap the benefits without lifting a finger.

Thinking about it this way, Liu Tianheng felt that this was God's arrangement.

Not only did I not die, I might even find a powerful destiny.

"Oh? That's wonderful!" the old man laughed heartily. "Tell me where it is?"

"In the capital of a great Xuan Dynasty in the eastern part of the Eastern Extremity Region, there is a place where Shu Mountain seals demons!" Prime Minister Liu Tianheng in white spoke without hesitation, and then cautiously added, "However, a person named Xu Hao has already occupied that ancient site and obtained endless treasures and resources from it."

"I've tried everything, but that brat is just too strong. He not only killed all the powerful figures, but he also forced us to leave the Eastern Region and flee to avoid disaster!"

"Who dares to disturb the attention of my Four Symbols Demon Sect?" Upon hearing this, the old man immediately shouted angrily.

These words surprised Liu Tianheng, the prime minister in white.

Sensing Liu Tianheng's expression, the old man stopped hiding his true intentions and said, "Your so-called Four Symbols Sect is a branch of my Four Symbols Demon Sect. We have also been searching for the place where the demons are sealed in Mount Shu."

However, due to the changes of ancient times and the mystery of the demon-sealing land in Mount Shu, it has not been found to this day!

"Uncle-Master!" Upon hearing this, the white-robed prime minister Liu Tianheng immediately knelt down, weeping with tears in his eyes, "I thought my lineage was the only one left in my Four Symbols Sect."

"We've finally found our ancestral home!"

"Alright, it's good that you're back!" The old man smiled as he looked at Liu Tianheng's face and asked directly, "Since you inherited the Four Symbols Sect, you must have a complete demon-refining method, right?"

"Yes!" Without hesitation, Prime Minister Liu Tianheng in white robes pulled out a dagger and plunged it into his thigh, creating a gash. Soon, gritting his teeth, he pulled a hide-like object from his thigh muscle.

The blood-soaked animal hide looked extremely gruesome.

"Good!" The old man was overjoyed to see that Liu Tianheng was so sensible. He took the animal skin and looked over immediately.

He soon burst into laughter.

Finally, we obtained the complete demon-refining method.

Now, as long as he finds the place in Mount Shu where demons are sealed, he can control the demons and rise to power.

It should be noted that the demons that can be sealed in the Demon Sealing Land by Mount Shu are all extremely powerful.

If you can control one thing, you can definitely stand at the pinnacle of reality.

When the time comes and the world changes, being one step ahead will lead to being ahead in every step.

Liu Tianheng could only stand quietly to the side, a cold smile creeping across his face.

He merely handed over the demon-refining technique; the true secret method remained hidden in his heart.

Once he reaches the Demon Sealing Land, he is confident that he will be the ultimate winner, because he has not only obtained the inheritance of the Four Symbols Sect, but also some inheritance related to Mount Shu.

That's where his confidence comes from.

"Very good. You will come back to the Four Symbols Demon Sect with me and report the situation here. You will have made a great contribution!" The old man patted Liu Tianheng on the shoulder and said happily.

"I dare not take credit!" Prime Minister Liu Tianheng, dressed in white, was very self-aware.

"Come with me!" The old man glanced at the white-robed prime minister Liu Tianheng and the group of Heaven-rank experts behind him, and then took to the air.

"My lord?" The other shadow guards looked at Liu Tianheng.

"go!"

Liu Tianheng did not hesitate at all.

Now that things have come to this point, we can only grit our teeth and persevere.

Moreover, he came here to find strong allies, and since there is this so-called Four Symbols Demon Sect, he will rely on it.

As long as he can enter the Demon-Sealing Land of Mount Shu, then everything is still possible.

Liu Tianheng followed the old man, and after a long journey, they finally arrived at a huge mountain range.

Soon, a large surge of energy appeared, revealing a huge cave entrance.

Liu Tianheng was soon led inside to a huge underground cave palace.

Here, there are countless powerful beings, as well as some demonic creatures that reveal a bloodthirsty aura.

Clearly, the Four Symbols Demon Sect is not as righteous as one might imagine.

Liu Tianheng continued forward and arrived at a grand hall.

There were many elderly people in the main hall.

They exuded a powerful aura and displayed diverse expressions.

But they all have one thing in common: their faces are gaunt and haggard.

It looked like a mummified corpse that had crawled out of the ground.

"Are you a descendant of the Four Symbols Sect from ancient times?" An old man spoke from the main seat of the hall.

"Yes!" Liu Tianheng immediately knelt down, not daring to show any disrespect.

The old man Huang Tianba, who sat in the main seat of the hall, spoke up, "You said earlier that you had found the location of the Demon Sealing Ground of Mount Shu. Tell me the details!"

"Yes!" Prime Minister Liu Tianheng in white robes hurriedly recounted how he obtained the Four Symbols Sect's inheritance, then patiently entered the Great Xuan Dynasty as an official, and finally discovered that the underground of the imperial palace was the place where the Shu Mountain sealed demons.

He specifically mentioned Xu Hao's strength, even embellishing it.

"Xu Hao's power is unimaginable. He even made the Cui family of the Eastern Extreme Region, who have inherited their power since ancient times, suffer a setback and dare not make any move!"

"Tch, just a country bumpkin. You're really boosting his morale while diminishing your own!"

"That's right. The Cui family has an ancient lineage, so how could my Four Symbols Demon Sect not be? Moreover, my Four Symbols Demon Sect has some ancestors who haven't awakened yet. Once they do, Xu Hao is nothing but an ant!"

"Indeed, the Cui family must have been a small power in ancient times, yet they are afraid of someone with only a Spirit Rank cultivation level!"

"We must conquer the Great Xuan Dynasty!"

Inside the main hall, a group of powerful figures from the Four Symbols Demon Sect began to shout and clamor.

They seemed ready to charge in immediately.

"Since everyone agrees, then we shall head to the Great Xuan Dynasty in the Eastern Region in seven days!" Huang Tianba, sitting in the main seat, spoke directly.

"Yes!" The others immediately accepted the order.

Because they knew that the Four Symbols Demon Sect was about to relocate entirely to the Great Xuan Dynasty in the Eastern Region.

The Four Symbols Demon Sect's main task is to control and refine demons.

Now that they have discovered the demon-sealing site in Mount Shu, their stronghold will become the demon-sealing site.

In an instant, the entire Four Symbols Demon Sect was in motion.

The white-robed prime minister, Liu Tianheng, remained calm.

He could tell that the Four Symbols Demon Sect was very powerful, definitely not weaker than the Cui family of the Eastern Region.

Earlier in the main hall, he sensed that the people standing there were all far above the Heavenly Rank, meaning they were all Spirit Rank.

In particular, the elder Huang Tianba, who was in the leading position, had an aura that made it hard for the old man to breathe.

This old thing is definitely at an extremely high level in the spiritual realm.

Now that the entire Four Symbols Demon Sect has mobilized, it's absolutely a massive and overwhelming force.

"Perhaps this will allow us to wipe out Xu Hao!" Prime Minister Liu Tianheng, dressed in white, was also greatly encouraged.

Soon, seven days arrived.

Not only did Liu Tianheng see what he had seen before, but he also discovered that the Four Symbols Demon Sect was carrying two huge coffins.

The array patterns on the coffin were repaired.

Inside the coffin, a powerful pressure emanated, as if it were about to crush the entire space.

The coffin moved, causing the surrounding air to appear illusory and distorted.

"This?" Liu Tianheng's face was full of surprise.

Because this was the most powerful cultivator he had ever encountered.

The aura emanating from this was several times stronger than that of Huang Tianba at the front of the group.

This was only the oppressive aura emanating from the area isolated by the coffin.

"Could it be the Dao Realm?" Prime Minister Liu Tianheng in white robes couldn't believe it.

Even those at the Spirit Rank are considered somewhat powerful, let alone those at the Dao Entry Realm who have surpassed the Spirit Rank!

The Dao Realm is said to be the backbone of various sects even in ancient times, but in today's world, it is difficult to even be born at the Spirit Rank, let alone the Dao Realm.

"Xu Hao, you're dead!" Liu Tianheng was overjoyed. He hadn't expected that the first force he encountered would have a powerful expert at the Dao Realm.
