Chapter 264: Ninefold Dao Domain, Ultimate Dao Reincarnation (Extra Chapter 5)

Li Hao continued to question Feng Lingxiao. He hadn't directly killed them in a fit of rage because he wanted to understand the demons' plans.

He felt that the demons' methods against the Great Yu Dynasty went far beyond what he had seen so far.

And the Great Yu Dynasty wasn't as simple as it seemed.

"Hm?"

Just as Li Hao was about to ask another question, he suddenly felt a subtle ripple in the world.

The ripple was silent and almost instantaneous, approaching and touching his Dao Domain.

When he had attacked in anger, he had used five layers of his Dao Domain to suppress the two demon kings. His Dao Domain also enveloped his own body. But now, his Dao Domain was being torn apart. A sharp force, like a blade, quickly tore through his Dao Domain and struck towards him.

The attack was sudden and incredibly swift. Li Hao's expression changed slightly, and then his eyes blazed with anger.

With a hum, Dao Domains continuously extended from his body, the sixth and seventh!

As the two layers of Dao Domains overlapped, the strength of his Dao Domain increased rapidly. The attack that had been tearing through his Dao Domain quickly slowed. When seven Dao Domains overlapped, the attack was completely suppressed by his Dao Domain, hovering several meters in front of him. It was a pulsating purple electric glow.

The purple electricity twisted violently, as if trying to break free from the Dao Domain's restraint. At its core, there was a silver thread-like object.

Li Hao could sense that the silver thread-like force was Dao power!

True Dao power!

It was something that rules couldn't easily bind, and it felt indestructible and impossible to destroy.

Li Hao's eyes flashed with cold light as he looked towards the void outside Qingzhou City.

There, two figures stood, but they didn't reveal any aura. If not for his eyes, he wouldn't have noticed them.

One was a woman with a graceful figure and snow-white legs. The other was a young man in black robes.

As Li Hao looked at them, they also looked at him. Seeing that Li Hao could actually suppress the Dao power attack, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes, and then their eyes became even colder.

They had been willing to expose themselves because they had seen Li Hao's power, which was too monstrous. But they hadn't expected that their attack hadn't killed him!

From the cries of the fleeing demons, they had also learned the young man's identity. He was the one who had emerged from nowhere in Liangzhou and disrupted their plans.

But the information they had received earlier said that he was fifteen years old, a Three Immortal Realm expert.

But now, he was a Tranquil Peace Realm expert?

Breaking through to the Four Pillars Realm within a year was something they could barely accept. After all, with Li Hao's previously demonstrated monstrous talent, it wasn't impossible.

But to establish his Dao heart and cultivate to the Tranquil Peace Realm within a year was a bit exaggerated.

Even the Saint Son couldn't do that. It was even a bit abnormal!

They began to suspect that perhaps another Saint Realm expert had noticed something and was using this Li Clan's child to disrupt their plans.

"The Divine Being!"

Feng Lingxiao and Dragon Jue Shen followed Li Hao's gaze and also saw the graceful woman. Their expressions changed. They didn't expect that two of the three Divine Beings had arrived!

Was the remaining one still waiting in the imperial capital for the True Person to make a mistake?

Feng Lingxiao's face turned grim. He hadn't expected that the two Divine Beings would personally intervene.

When they had spoken with these demon leaders earlier, they had repeatedly said that they couldn't reveal themselves too early, otherwise, they might attract unwanted trouble. They hadn't explained the specific reasons, but they could understand. There must have been something that the three Divine Beings feared, which was why they hadn't intervened directly.

After all, there was only one True Person, but there were three Divine Beings. If they hadn't been afraid of something, they would have already attacked the imperial capital.

But now, they had appeared.

Was it because this young man was too monstrous, and they didn't dare to give him any more time to grow?

Feng Lingxiao and Dragon Jue Shen guessed the reason in their hearts and couldn't help but feel bitter, but they could also understand. After all, they had thoroughly investigated the young man's identity after the battle in Liangzhou.

And since he was from the Divine General Manor and had been personally given a name by the Yu Emperor, it was known throughout the world. It was hard to conceal.

At fifteen years old, he had achieved such a feat. Now, he was not even sixteen yet, and he had already cultivated to the Tranquil Peace Realm, and to an incredibly exaggerated degree. No one would dare to let such a monster continue to grow.

Dragon Jue Shen looked at Feng Lingxiao, a sneer in his eyes. You were soft-hearted earlier, and now you can't regret it.

Feng Lingxiao realized this too, and his face turned pale.

"Is it you who are manipulating them from behind, or are you also puppets?"

Li Hao stared at the two, his eyes icy as he asked.

The graceful woman said indifferently, "Dead people don't need to know too much. You've seen us, and you should be dead!"

As she spoke, the purple patterns on her cheeks seemed to come alive, suddenly retracting into the collar of her dress. Then, her body suddenly attacked. Although she unleashed her power, her aura was still imperceptible.

Like teleportation, the woman's body vanished. When she reappeared, she was outside Li Hao's Dao Domain. But she directly raised her hand, and a silver light burst from her fingertips, tearing through Li Hao's Dao Domain!

Seven overlapping Dao Domains, terrifying power, could easily suppress hundreds of Tranquil Peace Realm experts like Dragon Jue Shen. But under those slender hands, they were like slightly stiff pieces of paper, offering little resistance before being torn apart!

Li Hao's eyes narrowed, and then his killing intent intensified. He strode towards the other party.

"Sevenfold Dao Domain, a top prodigy, but you still have to die!"

The graceful woman's palm was like a swift blade, tearing through Li Hao's Dao Domain. The silver light in her palm suddenly burst forth, covering her hand as she slapped towards Li Hao.

Li Hao didn't dodge or evade. Sensing the Dao Rhyme's pull, he also used his Dao Rhyme to pull it. The moment they were close, he took another half-step forward!

He clenched his fist and slammed it out.

With a whoosh, a domineering and invincible fist intent erupted in the world.

As its name suggested, the fist intent was simple and direct, but it contained the most extreme will. It was an unstoppable, invincible Dao thought!

Boom!!

A violent tremor echoed through the air, like two mountains colliding. The sound of the explosion caused Song Yu Feng in the city and Li Xiaoran and the other Four Pillars Realm experts who had turned back to rush over to be shocked and pale.

They could sense something terrifying in the explosive impact, something that seemed like the power they were pursuing, but it transcended that power.

"Who is that? Dragon Jue Shen was suppressed. Who is fighting?"

"Is that a Tranquil Peace Realm expert? I didn't see her Dao Domain unfold, but her power..."

Everyone was puzzled.

"That's Dao power. It's someone at the Dao Realm!"

The numerous Li Clan ancestral souls in the city all stared intently, recognizing the power the woman had unleashed. It transcended the Four Pillars Realm and couldn't be resisted by Dao Domains.

Dao Domains could only be considered a slight touch on the edge of Dao. Through the ultimate cultivation of martial arts techniques, one could grasp the rules behind them, but one hadn't yet entered Dao!

But this woman had truly entered Dao!

Hearing the words of the Li Clan's ancestral souls, the numerous Li Clan high-ranking officials were stunned, then looked in horror at the figures fighting.

Dao Realm? If they remembered correctly, the True Person of the Qian Dao Palace was a Dao Realm expert!

In other words, this woman was on the same level as the True Person?!

"Who is that young man? He has mastered seven Dao Domains and can actually fight a Dao Realm expert!"

"I heard that someone who has mastered three Dao Domains is already at the pinnacle."

"You all seem to know that young man. Who is he? Is he familiar with our Li Clan?"

The Li Clan's ancestral souls couldn't help but ask.

Li Hao had entered the ancestral temple earlier, but now that he had rebuilt his body, he no longer had the Li Clan's bloodline aura, and his appearance had changed. They hadn't recognized him.

Especially since he didn't have any bloodline aura, they hadn't even considered it.

Hearing the ancestral souls' questions, He Jianlan and the others opened their mouths slightly, but they didn't know how to answer.

Familiar with the Li Clan?

They had been very familiar in the past, even part of the Li Clan.

But now... were they still familiar?

In the air, Li Hao and the graceful woman's bodies both retreated, fist against palm. The graceful woman's palm techniques were extremely fierce, and they both were shaken back.

"Your fist techniques are good, but unfortunately, they're not your own martial arts. They're not paired with your own innate martial arts ultimate righteousness, and you don't have the Ultimate Righteousness state."

The graceful woman's eyes were cold, and her killing intent towards Li Hao intensified. The terrifying sword energy that had killed millions of demons with a single strike earlier showed that the young man had cultivated his swordsmanship to an extremely deep level. But she hadn't expected his fist techniques to be so formidable.

And if you consider his Dao Domains and his own realm... he's practically a monster!

"It's enough to deal with you."

Li Hao said. He had just tested the woman's strength with that punch. Now, his aura erupted, and he glanced at the two demon kings who were being suppressed by his Dao Domain,

"You're useless now."

Dragon Jue Shen and Feng Lingxiao were both startled, their faces turning pale. They hurriedly said, "Divine Being, save us!"

They both spoke at the same time, but as they did, the power of the Dao Domain suppressed them. Li Hao didn't show any mercy. Since the Divine Being was here, he didn't need to ask them anything anymore.

Besides, he was going to start using his Dao Domain to fight with all his might, and he didn't have the energy to suppress them anymore. He might as well kill them.

The graceful woman's expression changed, and she quickly attacked Li Hao, trying to tear through his Dao Domain and rescue Dragon Jue Shen and the others. After all, they could still be useful later.

But this time, the silver light from her fingertips couldn't easily tear through the Dao Domain. If it had been like stiff paper before, now the Dao Domain was like silk, impossible to tear apart with brute force!

Eightfold Dao Domain!

The graceful woman's expression changed, and she was a bit shocked. The young man still had the strength to do this.

While she was being blocked for a moment, the bodies of Dragon Jue Shen and Feng Lingxiao in the Dao Domain suddenly exploded.

They had already lost their chance to defy fate. After all, they had cultivated to the Tranquil Peace Realm, and they had fought and killed too much during their cultivation. Their power to defy fate had already been used.

"No..."

Feng Lingxiao roared, his body burning with flames, trying to break free from the Dao Domain.

But his soul burned, his major veins shattered, and he was still tightly suppressed by the Dao Domain. Then, with a bang, he was crushed like dust, offering no resistance.

Dragon Jue Shen also twisted his body, his body bursting with golden light. He had actually mastered the Ultimate Strength Realm and entered the Godforce state. At the same time, his dragon soul burned, transforming into a surging force that poured into his Dao Domain, trying to open a crack. But the Dao Domain pressing down on him was like a million-ton mountain, unyielding.

He roared, but halfway through his roar, the suppression of the eightfold Dao Domain killed him and Feng Lingxiao together, their souls annihilating.

All of this happened and ended in the blink of an eye. Li Hao had already soared into the air and was heading straight for the woman.

It was still the invincible fist technique, but this time, the eightfold Dao Domain enveloped him, restricting the woman's movements. His fist roared and slammed directly towards her head.

"镇星 (镇星, Town Star)!"

The graceful woman suddenly raised her head and shouted angrily. Purple energy surged from her body, and her power suddenly increased severalfold. She pulled her arms back, tearing through Li Hao's Dao Domain again.

"You're very strong, but unfortunately, you met us too early. If you had hidden for a few more years, perhaps no one here could have stopped you!"

The graceful woman looked at Li Hao, who was charging straight towards her, her eyes turning purple. A Dao aura emanated from her body, and she suddenly soared into the air, slapping towards Li Hao.

Boom!!

Fist and palm collided again. This time, the impact was even more violent. But this time, the graceful woman's body flew backward, crashing heavily into the ground outside the city, creating a deep crater.

Soon, the graceful woman charged out, blood spilling from her lips, her face filled with shock.

Now, in front of her, Li Hao no longer had eight Dao Domains, but nine!

In the blink of an eye, she was defeated.

"I encountered a Zhou Tian Realm assassin when I was six!"

"I encountered a Fifteenth Mile Realm assassin when I was fourteen!"

"I've been targeted by assassins and faced danger since I was young, far beyond what I could handle. But I've overcome them all. Is this the power of the Dao Realm? It's too weak. It's much weaker than I imagined!!"

Li Hao's body didn't stop. He chased after the woman.

He was covered in golden light, his hair flowing like golden divine fire. He raised his hand, and a Sacred Heart Treasure sword that had been suppressed on the ground earlier flew towards him and landed in his palm.

It was the Ten Extreme Sword that Dragon Jue Shen had used earlier. As it landed in his palm, the Sacred Heart Essence within the sword was suppressed and refined by him, becoming his weapon.

"Die!!"

Li Hao raised the sword and swung it. The ten extreme sword intents within the sword instantly pierced out, quickly converging, forming the strongest Ultimate Dao Sword Energy. But within this Ultimate Dao Sword Energy, Li Hao's own sword intent was also integrated.

Ultimate Dao Reincarnation!

Whoosh!

The sword light suddenly cut, as if dividing yin and yang, separating heaven and earth, arriving in an instant, appearing in front of the woman.

Zhen!

A sharp ringing sound echoed. The figure of the young man in black robes appeared out of nowhere, holding a long spear. The spear was also filled with the aura of a Sacred Heart Treasure, containing special rules of power. It actually blocked Li Hao's sword.

But the extreme destructive power of the swordsmanship forced him to retreat repeatedly.

They had originally thought that the graceful woman alone could deal with him, but it had forced Li Hao to unleash his ninefold Dao Domain, and he had almost been defeated.

The Ten Extreme Sword in Li Hao's hands now unleashed power far beyond what Dragon Jue Shen had achieved with it.

Seeing his attack blocked, Li Hao didn't stop. He continued to swing out a second and third sword!

His Heavenly Veins mobilized, and surging power converged into the sword. The overlapping Ultimate Dao Sword Energy of the Ten Extreme Sword, combined with the Reincarnation Sword Intent, slashed out rapidly.

This incredibly powerful sword technique was unleashed repeatedly, as if it were free. The black-robed young man's expression changed. He roared, and the long spear burst forth with a black electric glow, piercing through the void, creating two black cracks, trying to bury Li Hao's sword energy.

But the Ultimate Dao Reincarnation was too domineering. It directly shattered the void cracks and continued to attack them.

The two were shocked and angry. They both unleashed their palm techniques and fist techniques, condensing silver light, using the power of Dao to try and block it. But Li Hao's attack was fierce and domineering, and he still suppressed them.

This scene, seen by everyone in the city, was met with utter silence.

Everyone hadn't expected that Li Hao, fighting two Dao Realm experts alone, would still have such a fierce aura. It shattered their understanding.

"Damn it, let me kill him!"

The graceful woman saw that Li Hao was using the Sacred Heart Treasure she had given him to attack her. She was so angry that she spat blood. She was repeatedly defeated by Li Hao's consecutive Ultimate Dao Reincarnation attacks and couldn't defend herself.

Her Dao power couldn't be destroyed, but she couldn't withstand the terrifying sword energy. Her palm was cut, and her body was shaken, making her extremely uncomfortable.

Hearing her words, the black-robed young man's eyes were deep, and he didn't stop her. He simply said, "I'll compensate you later."

Hearing this, the graceful woman no longer hesitated. Silver light appeared all over her body, and her body seemed to split open, releasing a silver radiance.

"You've forced me to dissipate this avatar. I'll remember you!"

She was filled with anger and charged towards Li Hao.

Li Hao heard her words and was startled. This woman was just a Dao Realm avatar?

No wonder, no wonder she was so weak.

He had felt the aura of Ji Tianchao and the clan leader in the Ji Clan, as deep as an abyss, untouchable. Even with his ninefold Dao Domain, he wasn't sure he could defeat them. But he could suppress these two with his ninefold Dao Domain. He had thought it was the difference between demons and Ji Clan prodigies. But it turned out to be just an avatar.

Seeing that the woman's Dao aura was thick, as if she was about to unleash some kind of killing move, Li Hao stopped, no longer concealing anything. He decided to use his strongest move.

His Heavenly Veins suddenly absorbed, gathering all the power of the surrounding world.

Transcendence, ten percent!

The violent power surged into his body. Li Hao's eyes shot out divine light, and the aura of his ninefold Dao Domain suddenly increased by twice!

It was important to note that ten percent of the power poured into the nine Dao Domains, each layer was enhanced, and when they were combined, it was an incredibly terrifying increase!

He raised his sword and then slashed it out.

The Sacred Heart Treasure seemed to tremble, as if excited to bear and absorb the immense power.

The Ultimate Dao Sword Energy condensed, brighter than ever before, and roared out.

In an instant, the reincarnation formed by the sword energy, like a black curtain, rushed out, instantly enveloping the graceful woman's figure. Then, countless sword intents instantly pierced through her body.

"Impossible..."

The graceful woman's pupils contracted. Her silver radiance hadn't fully erupted yet, but now, trapped in this pitch-black reincarnation sword domain, her consciousness seemed to be shattered.

With a bang, the graceful woman's body was pierced by the sword energy and shattered into pieces.

The silver light within her body dimmed. It was Dao power, pierced and chopped by countless sword energies. It hadn't been destroyed, but it had gradually decomposed and dissipated into the world, losing its owner's consciousness.

The black-robed young man's pupils contracted. He couldn't believe that the young man had another trick up his sleeve.

He was shocked. This young man had repeatedly exceeded their expectations.

Without any hesitation, he quickly retreated, instantly judging that he couldn't win.

But as he retreated, Li Hao's gaze had already locked onto him, "You wanted to kill me? Let me first slay one of your avatars to sacrifice to my sword!"

He swung his arm, unleashing his power. His Heavenly Veins drew in the power of the surrounding world, increasing again.

Twenty percent!

Boom!

The Ultimate Dao Sword Energy slashed out, as if tearing open the black curtain of heaven and earth. It instantly caught up to the black-robed young man, and the black reincarnation it carried directly dragged him into it.

This time, the power was even more violent. The ninefold Dao Domain, which had previously been unable to restrain them, directly suppressed them, and then countless sword energies pierced through them.

"You..."

The black-robed young man glared at Li Hao, his head quickly shattered, and he dissipated on the spot.

There was no soul flying out of his body. It was just an avatar.

Li Hao raised his hand and retrieved the long spear. Now, there were more scratches on the spear shaft, caused by the sword energy of the Ten Extreme Sword.

The two avatars of the Divine Beings had been annihilated. Having fought to this point, Li Hao couldn't capture them alive.

Besides, they were just avatars. Even if he captured them alive, he wouldn't be able to ask them anything. They wouldn't answer.

Although he had won, Li Hao's face didn't show any joy. His expression became even more serious.

Just an avatar, and it had such terrifying power, able to clash with him when he unleashed his ninefold Dao Domain. How powerful would the real body be?

The gap between the Dao Realm and the Tranquil Peace Realm seemed even greater than Li Hao had imagined.

He didn't have enough Dao Domains, and he had cultivated too few martial arts techniques. He needed more techniques.

Fortunately, he should be able to reach the peak of Transcendence now...

Li Hao's eyes flashed with light. Since he had reached the peak of the Three Immortal Realm, he hadn't truly unleashed his full power.

And the Three Immortal Realm's ability to be reborn from a drop of blood seemed to be prepared for the peak of Transcendence.

In other words, one had to reach the peak of the Three Immortal Realm to be able to unleash Transcendence to its fullest.

"The Dao Realm..."

Li Hao's eyes flickered. He didn't know how many levels there were in the Dao Realm or what their true power was.

As Li Hao stood with his sword, lost in thought, everyone in the city was still stunned, feeling like they were in a dream.
