"It's him." The Ten-Crown King looked at Li Dao from afar, and his domineering aura could be felt even from a distance. His eyes began to burn with fighting spirit.

"His aura is so strange. Has he suffered a serious injury? His life force is draining away unnaturally." The immortal, his robes fluttering, held a bone flute in his hand, his eyes distant and unfathomable.

"He, he... isn't he Brother Dao Yi? Uncle Shi Hao, you big liar!" The little rabbit's eyes lit up after seeing Li Dao clearly, and then she put her hands on her hips and said to Shi Hao.

"This piece of wood has arrived just in time." The witch gracefully stepped aside.

"It's you!" The blond man who had been fighting with Chang Gongyan couldn't help but shrink his pupils when he saw Li Dao, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.

Having witnessed Li Dao's prowess before, I knew he was extraordinary; I never expected to face him so soon.

Yu Wushuang, who was pinned to the ground, struggled to lift her head. Feeling the mocking gazes around her, her eyes immediately filled with bloodshot veins, and she said in a hoarse voice:

"Who do you think you are to judge me? Who do you think you are!"

Li Dao's eyes remained calm and indifferent as he met his gaze, speaking detachedly:

Whether I am qualified or not is not for you to decide.

With a flick of his finger, deathly energy surged, and a stone tablet rose from the ground, directly suppressing Yu Wushuang. The character 'Xuan' on the stone tablet shimmered with divine light.

The terrifying sealing power directly suppressed Yu Wushuang's supernatural abilities and magical power.

"This is my qualification."

The entire hall fell silent instantly. The once high and mighty royal nobles had become prisoners in the blink of an eye; the contrast was simply too great.

Chapter 427 Ancient Covenant

After suppressing Yu Wushuang, Li Dao ignored him completely. His figure hovered in mid-air, surveying the surroundings with an aura of terrifying power, and addressed the crowd:

"Who else wants to seize the Qilin?"

As the Wheel of Life and Death slowly rotated behind him, the universe shattered, and a terrifying pressure swept out. The cultivators who had originally harbored schemes immediately abandoned their plans upon seeing Li Dao's overwhelming power.

Everyone looked at each other, stunned by Li Dao's imposing presence.

The scene fell silent.

But in the next instant, a beam of light shot down from the horizon, cutting off the sky, imprisoning the void, and directly extinguishing the fighting spirit here.

Feeling the immense divine power, Li Dao gradually withdrew his own aura and slowly landed beside the witch, a faint smile on his lips.

"I'm not too late, am I?"

The witch rolled her eyes at Li Dao and said irritably:

"Luckily you arrived in time. If you had been any later, the Qilin would have been stolen."

Li Dao patted the other person's head, attracting envious glances from many male cultivators.

On the battlefield, the void shattered inch by inch, and the figures of the three supreme powerhouses slowly appeared. Sui An saw that it was Li Dao who had caused trouble again, and felt a headache coming on. He then saw Yu Wushuang being suppressed by the stone tablet, pointed a finger, and shattered the stone tablet. The sound of Dao rolled back:

“Even in the previous era, there weren’t many geniuses like you. Now that war is about to break out, how can we afford to waste our time here?”

Li Dao shrugged and said nothing more.

With the three supreme beings leaving the stage, the battle was over. Shi Hao and the others came to Li Dao's side, looking at him as if he were some rare monster.

"What kind of looks are those? Do you think I'm more handsome now?" Li Dao punched Shi Hao and said irritably.

"He's not necessarily handsome, but he's definitely getting more and more freakish," Shi Hao said with a smile, teasingly.

"Get lost, you're the pervert." Li Dao rolled his eyes at Shi Hao.

His gaze then fell upon the white unicorn being held in the arms of the little rabbit.

Just as Bai Qilin was about to doze off, he felt Li Dao's unfriendly gaze and immediately jumped up. He looked up and met Li Dao's scrutinizing eyes, and his whole body stiffened involuntarily.

"This little thing looks rather weak; I feel like I could kill it with a single slap." Upon hearing this, the white Qilin froze.

“Brother Li, that’s right. It doesn’t look like the mythical beast at all. Why don’t you offer up the little rabbit and we can braise it together?” Cao Yusheng interjected.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Li Dao and his companion with strange expressions, and their lips twitched involuntarily.

Even the three supreme beings couldn't help but twitch their lips.

"Fatty, when I grow up, I'll catch some Skyhorn Ants for you to eat." At this moment, the white Qilin timidly spoke to Cao Yusheng.

"My lord, I may look weak now, but I will become incredibly powerful once I grow up," the white Qilin then said to Li Dao.

Everyone laughed when they heard this from Bai Qilin.

Li Dao smiled and, with his Eye of Truth, saw that the blood in the white Qilin's body flowed like magma, its bloodline was extremely pure, which showed its high potential.

"Alright, I'll reserve this palm strike for you for now. If you ever slacken your training in the future, then..."

Li Dao smiled, not finishing his sentence, but the meaning was self-evident.

Bai Qilin immediately nodded in agreement, afraid that if he was even a step too slow, Li Dao's hand would strike him down.

Seeing that it was so sensible, Li Dao didn't say anything more. It wasn't that he wanted to do it, but he was afraid that such a good talent would be wasted like the original trajectory.

Just as Li Dao and the others were having a pleasant conversation, Yu Wushuang on the other side had a very unpleasant expression, with a lingering gloom in her eyes.

"Alright, let's go to the Imperial City." Sui An spoke up at the right time, indicating that they had completed their mission and performed very well.

However, they still had some things to explain, so they did not take everyone back to the academy directly, but instead returned to the imperial city.

With a wave of their sleeves, the three of them gathered together Li Dao, Shi Hao, the Immortal, the Ten-Crown King, and even the geniuses from beyond the realm.

The next moment, they vanished from the spot, leaving no one behind except for the crisscrossing battlefield.

The imperial city, with its majestic and vast scale, reaches the sky and is surrounded by the sun, moon, and stars, exuding an ancient and weathered aura.

The city walls, built from stars, exude a sense of weight and solidity, and amidst the twinkling starlight, supreme laws seem to shimmer.

The void was torn apart, and Li Dao and the others returned to this place. Even though they had seen it once before, the vastness of it still overwhelmed them, leaving them in awe.

However, even this time when they returned, they still could not enter the Imperial City. Throughout history, only emperors or cultivators who had signed the Primordial Covenant could enter the Imperial City.

Many people disappear after entering the imperial city, leaving much to the imagination. Mystery and the unknown best describe this city.

A group of people returned to the market town; the city walls were now open to the public.

"You may move freely within the city and inquire about matters from the creatures within. We have important matters to discuss." After saying this to the crowd, Sui An disappeared from the spot with the Taiyin Jade Rabbit and the Qilin.

The many geniuses looked at each other in bewilderment, but in the end, Li Dao and the others took the lead and walked into the city.

Soon, Li Dao discovered that Shan Dianzi, Feng Wu, and some other geniuses from the Three Thousand Provinces had also arrived at this place.

"Boss!" Lightning Boy shouted as soon as he saw Li Dao, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

Ignoring the strange looks from others, Lightning immediately rushed towards Li Dao, shouting:

"Boss, I've finally seen you again! I've missed you so much!"

Li Dao's lips twitched involuntarily, especially after feeling the strange look the witch was giving him. He immediately slapped out, sending the lightning bolt flying as it was about to pounce on him.

"Speak if you want to talk, don't stand so close," Li Dao said irritably.

Lightning rubbed his head, listened to Li Dao's words, chuckled, and quickly got up from the ground, his eyes still brimming with excitement.

He had suffered a lot these past few months and almost got lost in the restricted area, which is why he was so excited to see Li Dao again.

"Fool." Feng Wu glanced at him as she passed by, then came to Li Dao's side with a smile on her lips.

"Senior Brother Li, it's great to see you again. Your strength has increased once more."

Li Dao greeted her with a smile, and was pleased to see that the two were safe and sound.

While the group exchanged pleasantries, they gradually entered the city.

After exchanging pleasantries, Li Dao and his two companions slowly walked towards the city. In just a short while, the originally scattered crowd split into several groups of varying sizes.

Shi Hao also met many old friends here. At this moment, he was being watched by many strange eyes as he happily chatted with Qin Hao after their reunion.

"Let's go, let's wander around." Seeing that Shi Hao and the others still had something to say, Li Dao led Feng Wu, the Dragon Girl, the Witch, and Lightning Boy to start walking around the city.

Although these ancient cities cannot compare to the grandeur of the capital, they still possess their own unique charm.

Walking through the ancient city, one can feel the rich Taoist atmosphere and the solemn sense of death accumulated over the years.

After asking around about the city's inhabitants, tasting some local delicacies, and admiring some unique sights, the group gained a better understanding of life in this place.

When everyone returned after their tour, they saw that the cultivators who had been scattered at the starting point had gathered together again.

In the void, the three supreme beings, including Sui An, had returned, followed by the Taiyin Jade Rabbit and the Qilin, clearly having reached a conclusion.

"It's about time. We should finalize the selections and get going," the Taoist in the green robe said softly, looking at the crowd.

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. Those who could reach this place were all individuals who possessed both good fortune and strength. Having done so much, they naturally had a great affinity for the Heavenly God Academy.

"Are we going to the Heavenly God Academy?" one of the cultivators couldn't help but ask.

“Let’s take one route, first learn about the Ancient Covenant, and then we can set off,” Sui An nodded slightly.

"Take one last look at this world. We are about to leave this realm, and we don't know when we will return," another supreme being said quietly.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent. Their initial excitement immediately turned to disappointment, as they were about to enter another world with no end in sight.

Many people became saddened because they didn't know when they would be able to return from this long journey.

"Boss, aren't you sad?" Lightning looked at Li Dao and asked, puzzled, seeing that he looked normal.

"Ha, all the mountains and rivers under heaven are the same, a good man should travel to all corners of the world." Li Dao smiled, but only he knew that only absolute strength could bring him everything he cherished, and that being sad in secret at this moment would not do much good.

Upon hearing this, Lightning Boy's eyes lit up, and he looked at Li Dao with admiration.

"Boss, you're absolutely right."

"I also want to make a name for myself in other worlds, and become famous throughout the world."

Li Dao smiled, patted the other person on the shoulder, and said nothing.

"Alright, let's go." After saying that, Sui An led everyone towards the imperial city.

Those prodigies quickly composed themselves, and seeing that they were really about to enter the imperial city, everyone became excited.

Led by the three supreme experts, the group slowly approached the imperial city, which was originally only visible from afar.

"Are we really going to enter it?" A cultivator asked, looking at the towering city that seemed to reach into the clouds. His voice was somewhat unsteady.

"Yes." Sui An nodded slightly.

Arriving at the city gate, one finds it inlaid with countless stars, shimmering with billions of divine radiance, imposing and boundless, unshakable even by the strongest.
