Chapter 373: Heaven and Earth Manifestation, Three Saints Cultivating Together (Guaranteed 4K words + Bonus Chapter 9)

[Poetry and Books Experience +18928]

Along with the increase in Poetry and Books experience, Li Hao's Poetry and Books Way advanced from the fifth stage to the sixth stage.

"Nothingness, the beginning of all things..."

[Poetry and Books Experience +16823]

Li Hao muttered to himself, thinking of Lin Qingying's Sword Way, the Swordless Way.

His understanding of this Sword Way had previously remained superficial, but at this moment, he felt a sense of complete comprehension.

Raising his hand, sword energy gathered in Li Hao's palm, spinning and coiling like a vortex, in a vast quantity, resembling a miniature sword energy hurricane.

However, as the power of his Dao mind gradually poured in, this hurricane-like sword energy gradually dissipated, spreading from a tiny hurricane to encompass the entire sky.

Wielding a wisp of sword energy can only cleave a gentle breeze.

Wielding a piece of heaven and earth can cleave through the sun, moon, and all creation!

No sword in hand, no sword in heart, heaven and earth are all swords, and yet none are swords.

Enlightenment dawned in Li Hao's eyes as he grasped the true essence of the Swordless Way at this moment. With this sword alone, he seemed to have transcended, able to touch the bottleneck of the Sacrificial Way!

However, this was the Sword Way he had imparted to Lin Qingying, not his own Sword Way. Nevertheless, the true essence of this Sword Way also integrated into his Sole Supremacy Sword Way, making its power even greater than before.

As Li Hao's thoughts converged, the Dao aura surrounding him gradually contracted, like rosy clouds and falling leaves, draping over Li Hao, making him appear as if enthroned in the starry cosmos, the center of heaven and earth, exuding nobility and grandeur.

Feng Boping saw Li Hao's eyes regain clarity and stepped forward with a smile:

"Judging by your recent enlightenment, has your Saintly Way made a breakthrough?"

"Yes."

Li Hao nodded. That Dao scripture expressed many of the insights in his heart. Combined with his own Saintly Way comprehension, his Saintly Way was now refined to a level that even he found terrifying, having already touched upon the traces of the Heavenly Way!

Although he had not undergone tribulations, his Saintly Way was self-formed. In terms of Saintly Way alone, it was even more formidable than his current physical body!

"It's time to settle accounts with those Buddhists and Void Saints."

Li Hao said.

Feng Boping pondered upon hearing this and said, "There's no rush. Your Saintly Way has just stabilized. It's better to cultivate more. Moreover, besides those Buddhists and Void Sacred Land, there are other Saints. That Green Lamp Buddha of Buddhism is unfathomable and will definitely not sit idly by while you kill the Buddha Lord. And that old fellow who is the Void Saint's master isn't dead either. I almost fell into his hands back then."

"They are retreating into their Sacred Lands, able to mobilize all the power within to strengthen themselves, becoming invincible in the same realm. Even if there's hope to defeat them, it will be very difficult to kill them!"

Li Hao's eyes flickered. Elder Feng knew his Saintly Way had progressed, but not to what extent.

In his current state, apart from the Supreme Saint, he was confident that if he encountered the Buddha Lord and Void Saint again, he would definitely be able to kill them, destroying their Saintly Ways along with them.

However...

Li Hao thought of their previous escape techniques. They all possessed special divine abilities that surpassed the Return to Void Extreme Realm. If they were determined to escape, he might not be able to kill them.

His movement technique was his weakness. In previous confrontations, he used the Extreme Realm to conceal this flaw. In the human realm, the Extreme Realm was the pinnacle. Therefore, even if his movement technique was weaker than those of the same realm, he could still easily kill them, and they could not escape his grasp.

But all Saints possessed the Extreme Realm, and now his movement technique weakness was exposed without a doubt.

Seeing Li Hao in contemplation, Feng Boping continued, "In another half a year, it will be the Saintly Dao Discourse Assembly. Saints from all heavens will attend. The Heavenly Pride Battle is just a carnival for juniors, while the Saintly Dao Discourse Assembly is a truly grand event that can influence all heavens!"

"Saintly Dao Discourse Assembly?"

Li Hao showed a questioning look of doubt.

Feng Boping nodded, "That's right. Besides the discourse among Saints, this assembly also concerns the division of Saintly Lands across the heavens, the competition for incense offerings, and so on. It relates to the changes in the overall structure of the heavens! Therefore, Saints from all heavens will attend, presided over by a Supreme Saint. Moreover, if there are disputes between Supreme Saints, they will also be resolved at the Discourse Assembly. And, Ancestor Yuan will give a concluding address, bestowing the Saintly Dao!"

Bestowing the Saintly Dao!

This is the reason Saints are revered by countless people, imparting the Great Way to all people, allowing all living beings to comprehend it.

And Ancestor Yuan's Dao bestowal can even provide insights for Saints. The reason Ancestor Yuan has such profound prestige and connections is also because many Saints have received his grace and guidance!

As the most ancient Saint, no one can truly see through Ancestor Yuan's profoundness.

Once, a Supreme Saint engaged in Dao discourse with Ancestor Yuan but was easily suppressed, nearly causing his Saintly Way to collapse and fall from the Supreme Saint level. That battle also established Ancestor Yuan's supreme status.

"Elder Feng's meaning is, we should wait until the Discourse Assembly to deal with them?"

Li Hao considered.

Feng Boping nodded and said, "They were defeated by you and fled, they must have ambushes and preparations waiting for us back in their territory. Going to their home ground is disadvantageous for us. But they will definitely attend the Discourse Assembly. If they really dare not come, it won't be too late for us to go to their Sacred Lands then!"

Li Hao pondered for a moment. Elder Feng's approach was indeed more prudent.

Although he was fully confident, with his movement technique weakness, truly taking action immediately might not guarantee their deaths.

Moreover, if they had other reinforcements or used precious treasures to invite a Supreme Saint to help, he might also encounter danger.

The more desperate the counterattack, the more ferocious it would be. He had to be careful and not underestimate them.

"Alright, I still have many cultivation issues to resolve. I might as well take this opportunity to resolve them all at once."

Li Hao said.

Feng Boping was relieved to see Li Hao listen to advice and smiled, "Good, you have already become a Saint, no need to rush for this moment. If we don't go, it's them who should be restless, after all, they don't know when we will strike."

Li Hao smiled and then asked, "Elder Feng, after passing the Three Disasters, how does one cultivate to Supreme Saint? What exactly is the difference between a Supreme Saint and a Saint?"

He had not yet undergone the Heavenly Tribulation and touched that bottleneck, so he knew nothing about it.

Feng Boping laughed, knowing Li Hao would ask. Now that Li Hao had become a Saint, he had naturally prepared to explain these things to Li Hao in detail.

"The Three Disasters of Saints, passing the Human Disaster allows one to preach the Dao, accelerating the absorption of incense offerings. Passing the Earth Disaster makes one invulnerable to all laws, possessing an indestructible body comparable to a Saintly Dao Emperor Weapon!"

"Passing the Heavenly Disaster will bring the Saintly Way to perfection!"

"At this point, it is the three realms of the Saintly Way! And above perfection is Supreme Saint. Supreme Saint is equivalent to half a Saintly Dao Extreme Realm. This realm was initially created by Ancestor Yuan. After the Saintly Way is perfected, continuing to comprehend it will lead to sensing the Heavenly Way!"

"Sensing the Heavenly Way is only the first step. If one can borrow power from the Heavenly Way, they are a Supreme Saint. At this time, a trace of Heavenly Intent will appear in the perfected Saintly Way!"

"Therefore, a Supreme Saint can easily destroy the Saintly Ways of other Saints with this trace of Heavenly Intent. After all, no matter how strong a Saintly Way is, it cannot match Heavenly Intent!"

"Besides this, Supreme Saints can sense the Heavenly Heart, which is what Buddhists call destiny. But it's only a vague sense, yet it is already extremely terrifying, similar to predicting the future and being half a prophet. Therefore, Supreme Saints rarely fall, able to foresee dangers in advance!"

Feng Boping said.

Li Hao was stunned, sensing the Heavenly Way?

Heavenly Intent?

He suddenly felt that this statement was somewhat familiar. Reaching the extreme of Immortalization, Li Hao had also faintly glimpsed that trace of Heavenly Venerable Will!

Did these two have something in common?

Li Hao's eyes flickered, he carefully pondered for a moment, and soon realized that what Elder Feng was saying was that Supreme Saints comprehend and follow Heavenly Intent, borrowing Heavenly Intent, while reaching the extreme of Immortalization, the Sixth Final Realm, was to command Heavenly Intent. Therefore, Li Hao called this realm Heavenly Venerable!

"One is borrowing, one is commanding. In that case, the power of the Sixth Final Realm should be even more terrifying than a Supreme Saint..."

Li Hao's eyes flickered, but his Sixth Final Realm only touched a trace of it. Previously, when he killed those six Dao Law Realm experts in the human realm, he only commanded a trace of Heavenly Venerable Will.

Only complete mastery counts as the Final Realm!

"Extreme Realms and Final Realms, although cultivation is difficult, they seem to correspond to certain powers of higher cultivation realms. Cultivating to the extreme or final realm allows one to master them in advance, and perhaps even more terrifying..."

Li Hao's eyes flashed. He had long sensed this, such as the Fifteen Li Extreme Realm, Return to Void Instantaneous Movement.

If one cultivated to the limit in the Fifteen Li Realm, with this Extreme Realm Instantaneous Movement, the effect would be more terrifying than the first level of the Four Establishments Realm, the Dao Heart Realm's Dao Rhythm Instantaneous Movement, and impossible to capture!

While Dao Rhythm Instantaneous Movement, in the eyes of a Way Understanding Realm expert, could be seen through at a glance, Return to Void Extreme Realm left no trace.

"You have passed the Human Tribulation, your physical body is comparable to a Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon. Among the Saints of all heavens, except for Supreme Saints, probably no one's physical body is stronger than yours, even the other Saints of that Chaotic Heaven Sacred Land are not as good, including those dragon demons of the Ancestor Dragon Sacred Land."

Feng Boping said with a smile. A tyrannical physical body, although it does not mean the attack is the strongest, for example, it would be difficult for Li Hao to chase and kill a Three Disaster Saint who wanted to escape, but at least in terms of self-preservation, it was first-rate.

Coupled with Li Hao cultivating to the Power Channeling Final Realm, it was even harder to kill him. Even a Supreme Saint would probably have to expend some effort to possibly kill Li Hao.

Li Hao nodded slightly, but he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. If only his Cooking Way could also reach the tenth stage, then he could quickly raise his Sword Way to the tenth stage as well. Even if he couldn't catch up, a single sword strike could cleave that Buddha Lord!

In that case, the opponent wouldn't even have a chance to escape, and there would be no question of whether he could catch up.

"You can try this reward of incense offerings. In the past, some people also became Saints through the Sacrificial Way, but later when they absorbed incense offerings again, there seemed to be some obstacles, unable to cultivate both paths. I'm not very clear about this, after all, I haven't been able to walk the Sacrificial Way. Perhaps Supreme Saints know how to balance them, if you can't find a clue, you can ask Ancestor Yuan."

Feng Boping said to Li Hao.

Li Hao frowned slightly and said, "Has no one tried to become a Saint through three-way cultivation?"

Feng Boping laughed and said, "There have been such thoughts, but no one has been able to do it. You know the difficulty. Just becoming a Saint through the Sacrificial Way is already extremely difficult, let alone three-way cultivation. Moreover, the Extreme Way is related to the God Race and is forbidden. Even if someone overcomes the most difficult Sacrificial Way and secretly cultivates the Extreme Way, in the end, it seems they only single-cultivate the Sacrificial Way, unable to cultivate both together."

Li Hao's eyes flashed. Those who can cultivate to the Saint Realm are all heavenly prides, and there are many who are arrogant and ambitious. The idea of three-way cultivation is definitely not uncommon.

It's just that no one has been able to do it.

"I'll try it myself first."

Li Hao said.

He did not intend to ask first. If Ancestor Yuan knew, the other party might be a three-way cultivating Saint!

Thinking of this, Li Hao became even more wary of Ancestor Yuan.

"Yes, reaching the Saint Realm means becoming a pioneer, establishing destiny for all living beings, and opening up a new chapter for heaven and earth. No one is walking ahead of us anymore, guiding our way. We should lead the way for those who come after."

Feng Boping praised, with a hint of emotion in his eyes, and the heroic spirit of facing the unknown of heaven and earth.

Hearing his words, Li Hao's heart also surged with boundless light. Yes, reaching the Saint Realm, there is no need to walk someone else's path anymore. The path he walks is the path that others will follow!

He will become a pathfinder, no longer a learner.

If there is anyone who can be a teacher of Saints, there are only two: first, heaven and earth, second, the Great Way!

Comprehending from the Great Way, comprehending from heaven and earth, writing a new chapter for his own Saintly Way, and pioneering a new Saintly Way and a new cultivation system for all living beings!

After Elder Feng left, Li Hao took out the Incense Offering Golden Body awarded for first place among Supreme Heavenly Prides.

Without hesitation, he imprinted a wisp of his soul mind onto the golden body.

Instantly, the incense offerings sealed within the golden body, as if finding a host and sustenance, transformed into a rich, misty rosy light in an instant, flying out of the golden body and being absorbed into Li Hao's body.

The incense sticks condensed in his body were rapidly growing. In the blink of an eye, the second, third incense sticks were all condensed.

With the three incense sticks condensed, he could already become a Saint through incense offerings!

But Li Hao felt that these three incense sticks were indeed condensed, even longer and thicker than other incense sticks, but they seemed to be shrouded by something, unable to... ignite!

Before he walked the Sacrificial Way, Li Hao felt that the three incense sticks were like always held in his hand, extremely close, but now, they seemed very distant.

Moreover, he could previously mobilize the power of incense offerings and ignite them at any time, but now he found that he no longer had this ability.

"Cannot ignite? Can only absorb incense offerings, but cannot use them?!"

Li Hao was stunned, unexpectedly, incense offerings and the Sacrificial Way truly had a barrier, unable to be cultivated together.

And the Extreme Way power, retreating into his limbs, was even further away from the three incense sticks in his heart.

Li Hao frowned and carefully sensed, only to find that it was the Saintly Way power in his physical body that suppressed the three incense sticks, preventing them from igniting.

This Saintly Way power was like a membrane, isolating the air, and without air, it could not ignite.

Unless the Saintly Way cracked, broke open, revealing gaps, the three incense sticks would not be so severely suppressed and could barely be ignited.

But in that case, both powers would be half-baked, even worse than single-cultivation.

"Is this the difficulty of being unable to cultivate together?"

Li Hao's eyes flashed, immediately feeling troubled, this seemed to be a dead end.

If he wanted to ignite the three incense sticks, he would have to break open the Saintly Way. If he cleaved open the Saintly Way, his own strength would be damaged and severely injured, outweighing the gains.

"If the physical body was larger, with two chests, or an incarnation..."

Li Hao's thoughts raced, full of wild ideas. If he could condense two more physical bodies, placing the three powers separately in the other two physical bodies, and then combine the three bodies into one, would this be possible for simultaneous cultivation?

Thinking of this, his mind moved, biting his finger. Although his finger skin was comparable to a Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon, his teeth were even sharper, even capable of biting through a Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon!

As divine blood dripped down, Li Hao instantly separated a part of his mind, allowing the divine blood to condense into an incarnation.

Then, he tried to transfer the incense offering power in his body to the incarnation.

This process was somewhat difficult, but overall it was relatively smooth.

After the transfer, Li Hao began to ignite the three incense sticks in the incarnation.

This time, they were successfully ignited, but still with some resistance. The soul mind in the incarnation also contained his own Saintly Way power, but it was weaker, and did not suppress the incense offering power.

And as the incense offering power ignited, that Saintly Way power seemed to be scorched and quickly receded.

In this way, this incarnation only had incense offering power, but no Sacrificial Way power.

Li Hao frowned, absorbing the incarnation back into his main body. The process was very smooth. As they merged, the incense offering power also transferred to the main body.

But when the three incense sticks returned to his physical body, the incense offering power was extinguished, suppressed by the Saintly Way power again.

Li Hao was somewhat speechless, after all this effort, it was all in vain. As long as they merged, the incense offering power would be suppressed.

If only the incarnation inherited the incense offering power, it would be meaningless.

After all, the incense offering power in the incarnation would dispel the Sacrificial Way power. With one rising and the other falling, the strength did not increase much.

"Can only cultivate one Saintly Way, they repel each other..."

Li Hao's eyes flashed. It seemed he really had to ask a Supreme Saint about how to walk this path.

Thinking this, Li Hao looked at the three Heaven and Earth Treasures, and did not immediately give them to Gongming to absorb. Since he was going to seek advice, he naturally had to bring gifts, and these could be used as small tokens of respect.

Li Hao sensed Elder Feng's aura in the Sacred Land's cave dwelling and sent a voice transmission to him, saying he was going to the Heavenly Origin World.

"Need company?"

"No need, I'll be back quickly."

After Li Hao greeted Elder Feng, he quickly set off, crossing the barrier of the Lesser Thousand World, and flew all the way.

Now that his physical body had become a Saint, Li Hao could see the Great Ways of heaven and earth with his naked eyes, and also see many void rifts, freely shuttling through them, tens of thousands of miles away in an instant, far beyond the range of controlling objects in the Fifteen Li Realm.

But that was purely relying on power to control, so controlling objects for a hundred miles could touch the Extreme Realm, while this instant tens of thousands of miles was a skillful method, using the rifts in heaven and earth and the paths of the Great Way to fly through the air, they were two different things.

If solely relying on brute force to move tens of thousands of miles, even Saints would not be able to do it.

At full speed, in about half a day, Li Hao arrived at the Heavenly Origin World again.

Coming to the familiar Heavenly Origin Saint Mountain, Li Hao went straight to the top of the mountain to pay a visit.

"Is it Heavenly Venerable Hao? My master has instructed me to wait here for a long time, please follow me."

As soon as Li Hao arrived at the top of the mountain, he saw a Half-Saint from Ancestor Yuan's Sacred Land, as if waiting for a long time, dressed in white, looking over sixty years old, but with a smiling face, bowing to Li Hao, and respectfully said.

"Hmm?"

Li Hao was a little surprised upon hearing this. Ancestor Yuan expected him to come?

His thoughts flashed, and he soon understood that he became a Saint through the Sacrificial Way, and getting incense offering power would inevitably lead him to cultivate it. It was not surprising that Ancestor Yuan expected him to come and find him.

Moreover, Elder Feng said that Supreme Saints could perceive Heavenly Intent and vaguely glimpse the future.

Following the other party to the Heavenly Origin Saint Mountain, they arrived at the cave dwelling where Ancestor Yuan had previously invited the Saints and Li Hao.

The decoration here was relatively simple, but Li Hao could feel that the tables, chairs, benches, including the teacups and plates, all contained the power of Dao rhythm. The entire cave dwelling was surrounded by the Great Way, like a celestial abode.

"Little friend, you came here to seek the method of simultaneous cultivation, right?"

Ancestor Yuan was sitting in the cave dwelling, drinking tea. Beside him, there was also a familiar figure. Li Hao looked over and it was Xiao Tianyu.

But compared to before, his demeanor and aura had obviously undergone earth-shattering changes, becoming more detached and composed, with a kind of ethereal and transcendent aura.

Li Hao saw at a glance that the other party had become a Saint, with rich incense offering power in his body.

Obviously, as a disciple of Ancestor Yuan, incense offering power would definitely not be lacking.

What made Ancestor Yuan feared by the Saints was also that Ancestor Yuan's incense offering power was undeniably the first in all heavens!

For those who became Saints through incense offerings, the amount of incense offerings was a manifestation of their strength. And the amount of incense offerings accumulated by Ancestor Yuan was unparalleled among the heavens, so no one could compete with him in terms of incense offering power.

"Indeed, Ancestor Yuan is truly as wise as a god."

Li Hao smiled.

Ancestor Yuan smiled slightly, "Knowing that you became a Saint through the Sacrificial Way, I guessed that you would come to inquire. I just didn't expect you to come after several months. Little friend's temperament is quite steady."

Li Hao's past few months were mainly spent immersed in the integration and comprehension of the Dao scripture and his own Saintly Way. Incense offerings were only just absorbed, but the other party probably thought he had already absorbed them long ago, just that he had been exploring for months without results, and only came to inquire now.

The difference between the two was not great, and Li Hao did not explain. He indeed did not have very good ideas at present, and wanted to come here to seek advice. If there was a method, it would be better. If there was no method, perhaps he could find some clues.

While the two were talking, Xiao Tianyu just sat aside, quietly drinking tea, while gazing at Li Hao.

Months had passed, and he was now on equal footing with Li Hao, both being Saints.

But he knew that just based on Li Hao's previous means of defeating the Buddha Lord and scaring away the Void Saint, even though they were both Saints, there was still a considerable gap between them.

"Here is a small gift, please accept it, Ancestor Yuan, and tell me the method of simultaneous cultivation."

Li Hao took out two Heaven and Earth Treasures and handed them to Ancestor Yuan, keeping only one for himself.

Ancestor Yuan glanced at them and immediately laughed. These were exactly the rewards he had given to Li Hao previously.

"I appreciate your kind intentions, but there is no need for this gift. To be honest, many Saints in the heavens, after becoming Saints, have come to ask me about this matter, including those who have now become Supreme Saints. But even I, after years of painstaking research, do not have a particularly suitable method, only a relatively compromise method."

Ancestor Yuan said with a smile, "Three Saints Cultivating Together, this method is very likely related to the Saintly Realm Extreme Realm. If it can truly be achieved, it will have incredible power, enough to suppress all Saints in the heavens with one's own strength!"

"But this method is also difficult, and my compromise method is very likely to be a wrong path."

Speaking of this, he looked at Li Hao and said, "Even so, do you still want to cultivate it?"

Li Hao's eyes slightly moved and said, "How does Ancestor Yuan know it's the wrong path?"

"Because although this path can allow the three powers to coexist, it has not touched the Extreme Realm I imagined. And there is only one possibility for the path of the Saintly Realm Extreme Realm."

Ancestor Yuan said.

Xiao Tianyu listened quietly to the conversation between the two, and took a sip of tea.

Sure enough, as a heavenly pride, becoming a Saint, no one does not want to cultivate the three Saintly Ways simultaneously in one go.

Just like mortals want to ascend to heaven, becoming Saints but then wanting to become immortals. But wanting is one thing, and being able to do it is another.

Li Hao understood and nodded, "I would like to hear the details, and I want to try it."

Seeing Li Hao say so, Ancestor Yuan seemed to have expected it, and without surprise, said with a smile, "Incarnations, including reincarnations, even splitting and reincarnating soul minds, I have tried these methods, but they are all useless. In the end, I still used the most crude and straightforward method, which is to establish two restrictions in the body, like walls, to isolate these three powers!"

"When you need to use them, you only need to slightly release the restrictions to unleash them."

Li Hao was stunned, building walls in the body to isolate the three powers?

It was indeed simple and crude... Li Hao's eyelids twitched slightly, but he quickly realized that although the idea was simple, the restrictions Ancestor Yuan spoke of might not be simple.

Being able to isolate Saintly Way power and not affect each other, those restrictions must be extremely terrifying.

Ancestor Yuan said with a smile, "These isolation restrictions are what I have researched over many years. If you want to learn, I can pass them on to you."

Li Hao looked at him, vaguely seeing the kindness in the other party's eyes.

Previously, he suffered injustice, and the other party did not speak up. When the truth was revealed, although he upheld justice for him, Li Hao still felt some resentment in his heart. But as he comprehended the flaw in his Saintly Way heaven and earth, this resentment also dissipated.

Because he could tolerate this imperfection, after all, others had no obligation to speak out for justice.

Moreover, good and evil were just concepts extended by Buddhism. Other Saints might not have the concept of good and evil. For example, Mohists only had the concept of equality, without hierarchy, and without good and evil, while the Saintly Way was universal love.

"How should I repay this kindness?"

Li Hao asked.

Saints may not talk about good and evil, but they must talk about trade-offs, this is the foundation of humanity.

"No need to repay, this is not any kindness."

Ancestor Yuan shook his head slightly and said, "You don't need to take it to heart. For any Saint in the heavens who comes to ask, I will pass on this method."

Li Hao's eyes flashed, he stared at him for a moment, thought for a while, and left one of the two Heaven and Earth Treasures, saying:

"Although Ancestor Yuan does not need it, I feel ashamed to receive it for nothing, please accept this item."

Ancestor Yuan glanced at it and said, "If it can make your state of mind smoother, then so be it."

After saying that, he put away the Heaven and Earth Treasure.

Then, he transmitted the two kinds of restrictions to Li Hao through voice transmission.

Li Hao recorded them all, and did not immediately start cultivating here. After savoring them for a moment, he got up and said, "I have taken the liberty to disturb you today, then I shall take my leave."

Ancestor Yuan chuckled and said, "Feel free to come and sit anytime. My humble abode is quiet and I also want some liveliness."

Li Hao smiled, exchanged a few polite words, and was about to bow and say goodbye.

Seeing that Li Hao was about to leave, Xiao Tianyu suddenly said, "Will you come to the Dao Discourse Assembly half a year later?"

Li Hao looked at him and nodded, "I will."

Now, he was not afraid of exposing his whereabouts and being intercepted and killed. Except for Supreme Saints, not many could threaten him.

A slight smile appeared on Xiao Tianyu's face and said, "Then I will wait for you. If there is a chance then, you and I can have a Dao debate, I want to see if my cultivation in this life has improved!"

"Alright."

The other party was Ancestor Yuan's disciple, and for Ancestor Yuan's sake, Li Hao had no reason to refuse.

After speaking, Li Hao left the cave dwelling.

After Li Hao left, Xiao Tianyu looked at Ancestor Yuan and said, "Master, these restrictions can interfere with the Saintly Way, they are top-notch methods in the heavens. Are you really passing them on to him so easily?"

Ancestor Yuan chuckled and said, "This child is not comparable to other Saints. Even if I don't teach him, in a hundred or a thousand years, he will figure it out sooner or later, it's just a matter of delaying time. Instead of that, it's better to give him a favor. However, he doesn't seem to like owing people favors."

Looking at the Heaven and Earth Treasure in his hand, he smiled helplessly, and casually threw it to Xiao Tianyu:

"You take it and feed your longbow."

Xiao Tianyu took it, and without being polite upon hearing this, he said, "Thank you, Master."

"The restrictions that Master researched for tens of thousands of years, he can comprehend in thousands of years, isn't his comprehension higher than yours?"

Xiao Tianyu asked.

Ancestor Yuan shook his head and smiled, "Among the heavens, there is more than just this one person whose comprehension is higher than mine. I just had an earlier start. If we talk about comprehension, my aptitude is very dull, otherwise, I wouldn't be trapped here all these years."

Speaking of this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, but it quickly faded away again.

"Master is too modest."

Xiao Tianyu said softly. He knew his master's temperament. Although he said his comprehension was not top-notch in the heavens, it was also extremely terrifying, otherwise, how could he have self-cultivated into the first Saint in that barbaric era?

...

Leaving Ancestor Yuan's place, Li Hao returned to the Lesser Thousand World.

He returned to the small courtyard and once again went into closed-door cultivation.

Li Hao carefully comprehended those two restrictions. Ancestor Yuan's Dao bestowal was extremely detailed, and he comprehended them extremely easily, quickly mastering them.

"These two restrictions can actually affect the Saintly Way..."

Li Hao's eyes flashed, increasingly feeling the terror of these two restrictions, they were definitely not simple. Yet the other party easily passed them on to him. This Ancestor Yuan could make all Saints revere him, and he indeed had admirable methods.

Li Hao constructed one restriction in his body, and then found that the Saintly Way power in his body had less influence on the incense offerings.

He immediately tried to ignite the incense offerings and instantly found that all three incense sticks were ignited.

A force of incense offerings, burning fiercely in his body.

The Great Way seemed to be attracted, gathering around. The smoke from the burning incense offerings turned into a surging power, circulating in his body.

But as the smoke flowed and the power connected, his own Saintly Way power seemed to weaken, suppressed by the incense offering power.

Li Hao tried to condense Saintly Way power and found that it could be condensed, but due to the suppression of the restrictions, coupled with the coverage of incense offering power, what could be unleashed was extremely limited.

Li Hao also tried to use the power of restrictions to suppress the incense offering power, and found that the effect was reversed. Saintly Way power then suppressed the incense offerings. Although incense offering power could also be used simultaneously, it was very weak.

"So that's how it is..."

Li Hao understood. This method, although it could make the three powers appear simultaneously, had a primary and secondary aspect.

Simply put, even if the three powers were cultivated together, it was not the three powers flowing freely as Li Hao imagined, but with a clear primary and secondary aspect.

Although it was stronger than single-cultivation, it was very limited, suppressing the other two and forming a primary and secondary, instead of all three being able to be unleashed freely.

"No wonder it's said to be a wrong path. If there is truly a Saintly Realm Extreme Realm, it is definitely not like this..."

"But apart from this path, is there really another way to cultivate the three Saintly Ways together?"

Thoughtfulness appeared in Li Hao's eyes. Leaving aside this method, it seemed even more impossible to be compatible.

Perhaps, Saints can only single-cultivate.

Li Hao dispersed the restrictions, and the three incense sticks immediately extinguished, with Saintly Way power becoming dominant.

Li Hao couldn't help but sigh, this was not the path he wanted to take.

"Clearly they are all Saintly Ways, why can't they be compatible? Heaven and earth can accommodate all things, but cannot accommodate three Saintly Ways?"

Li Hao muttered to himself.

But a voice seemed to say in his mind, heaven and earth are heaven and earth, he is just him, he cannot compare to heaven and earth.

But if his physical body could be cultivated to be as majestic as heaven and earth?

Thoughtfulness appeared in Li Hao's eyes.

The physical body could not truly be like heaven and earth, but he was born in this heaven and earth, he was a part of it, and could also be a part of heaven and earth.

He was a particle extended by heaven and earth, and at the same time, heaven and earth were also his extension!

Understanding this, Li Hao suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment.

Dao rhythm flowed around him, Li Hao sat cross-legged, and his Saintly Way aura became more and more brilliant and intense.

What is heaven and earth?

Heaven and earth begin in nothingness, nothingness gives birth to somethingness.

Li Hao's physical body was changing, tempering. A body refining method born from the Dao was running in his physical body on its own, absorbing many Dao rhythms into his body, his volume was increasing rapidly, and his body was changing.

"What is that?"

When Li Hao's body soared to break out of the small courtyard, many disciples on the Heavenly Stealing Saint Mountain saw Li Hao's appearance and were all shocked.

"Hmm?"

Feng Boping, who was just lying in the clouds, suddenly sat up, looking at Li Hao, whose volume had reached a hundred zhang high, and was a little stunned. He could feel that Li Hao's physical body contained terrifying power. Divine electricity seemed to be surging between his bones and flesh pores, and divine blood was like a furnace, exuding a scorching aura.

"What is he cultivating?"

Feng Boping was a little stunned, this movement was too big, it seemed to want to prop up the sky!

He reacted and quickly raised his hand, clouds and mist rolled, and immediately surrounded Li Hao's body, to avoid being窥探.

But the movement here had already alarmed everyone on the entire Saint Mountain.

"Is that Heaven and Earth Manifestation?!"

"No, Heaven and Earth Manifestation is slightly illusory, that is real!"

"Is it Heaven and Earth Manifestation condensed to the extreme? How is it possible for a real physical body to be so huge?!"

Many disciples looked up, but saw clouds and mist surrounding it, shielding that towering body.

In the crowd, Lin Baichuan, Chu Hanwei and other holy sons of Heavenly Stealing Sacred Land were all staring blankly at this scene, and then looked at each other.

"He seems to be getting more and more terrifying."

Lin Baichuan saw the clouds and mist shielding it, recognized it as his master's method, he withdrew his gaze, and said with a complicated and bitter expression.

Once they were all heavenly prides, but now the Supreme Heavenly Pride Battle was over, and the other party had already become a Saint and sealed as Venerable, while they were still holy sons, only comparable to Half-Saints, too far away from Saints.

Chu Hanwei stared intently, without speaking, just pursing her lips slightly.

At this time, Li Hao in the cloud and mist enclosure, his volume was still growing.

Surging power and Dao aura permeated from his flesh and blood and pores, his physical body became incomparably huge.

When this power reached a bottleneck, Li Hao opened his eyes, and immediately saw himself sitting on top of the Saint Mountain like a giant, overlooking the sea of clouds, the surrounding buildings all became extremely small, like gravel, and his own courtyard had long been broken by his rapidly increasing volume.

The originally empty courtyard was now not even as big as his toe.

Li Hao looked down at it, but was not surprised. His current state was melting heaven and earth Great Way and laws, it was a kind of fusion of body refining technique and divine ability.

He called this power Heaven and Earth Manifestation!

This was different from Heaven and Earth Avatar. Heaven and Earth Avatar was to show the will and Dao mind of the heart and soul, it was a virtual image constructed by energy, while Heaven and Earth Manifestation was to accommodate power into the physical body.

Only when his physical body became a Saint could he comprehend and cultivate such Saintly Way divine ability!

Feeling the surging and rapidly increasing power all over his body, Li Hao dared not imagine, if he called out Heaven and Earth Avatar again and merged them together, what level of power would be reached.

"Now, my body is one of heaven and earth!"

Li Hao whispered.

The reason it was called Heaven and Earth Manifestation was also derived from this.

Emulating heaven, imitating earth, in his physical body, heaven and earth are formed on their own!

"Heaven and earth and all things, all can be integrated, only because heaven and earth and all things are all one breath!"

"This one breath, condenses all things, evolves all things, the power of the Three Saints, all can be hidden in this one breath!"

Li Hao's eyes were unprecedentedly bright and clear, he understood the path to integrate the Three Saints.

The reason he could have such enlightenment was also related to his mastery of the Immortalization Extreme Realm. Immortalization peered into heaven and earth, condensing a breath of immortal Qi of heaven and earth origin.

This breath of immortal Qi, gathered, can become all things, scattered, can be vast and traceless.

Comprehending the Immortalization Extreme Realm, at this moment, thoughts naturally flowed smoothly, and he comprehended the bottleneck of Three Saints integration.

Li Hao dispersed the Great Way power in his body, power shrank, physical body also gradually shrank, and in a blink of an eye shrank back to the courtyard, body red light, robes had been torn apart before.

But at this moment Li Hao had no time to pay attention to these, his mind was all on the incense offering power in his body.

As a breath of immortal Qi circulated, the whole body condensed as one!

Dao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, three begets all things!

At this moment, under the circulation of this breath of immortal Qi, the three incense sticks were ignited.

Moreover, the Saintly Way power in his body was not affected or interfered with, they coexisted.

Li Hao opened his eyes, in his eyes, sparks seemed to be reflected, but they quickly dissipated, but his aura became more low-key, deep, as the three incense sticks burned, incense offering power filled his body, the smoke of incense offering burning permeated in his body, surrounding his Saintly Way, he could feel that his power was greatly improved, close to twice as strong as before.

At the same time, he also saw countless incense offerings gathering, the three incense sticks were becoming thicker and thicker, and the burning smoke was also becoming thicker and thicker.

"So that's how it is, only by cultivating the physical body to the extreme, condensing Heaven and Earth Manifestation, can one achieve Three Saints living in one body!"

Li Hao's eyes flashed, unexpectedly, to cultivate the Three Saints together, the conditions were so harsh.

In addition to cultivating the physical body to the extreme, to condense Heaven and Earth Manifestation, one must also master the Immortalization Extreme Realm!

This point alone would make countless Saints retreat, no wonder no one could master it.

At this time, Li Hao felt a sense of relief in his heart. This also showed that Ancestor Yuan should not possess such power either, and the restrictions he passed on might be methods that Ancestor Yuan himself was also using.

"When I have the power to defend it, this method can be passed on to Elder Feng..."

Li Hao thought to himself.

If Supreme Saints knew that he could freely unleash two Saintly Way powers, or even three Saintly Way powers, and not rely on restrictions to suppress them, they would definitely come to investigate.

But fortunately, even if he now simultaneously unleashes two Saintly Way powers, the other party would only think that it was the situation under the suppression of restrictions, with Ancestor Yuan passing it on to him as proof, it was enough to dispel some malicious thoughts.

When he possessed power like Ancestor Yuan, to suppress the heavens, he would not be stingy to pass on the Dao, whether others could comprehend it or not would depend on their own abilities, but it was not possible yet.

"Now, just need to continuously absorb incense offering power, and Extreme Way power, my Extreme Way power, seems to be not enough to become a Saint yet..."

Li Hao found that the Extreme Way power in his body, refined in divine blood, was still a little short before it could condense into a Saintly Way.

But now that he had become a Saint, he could no longer go to the heavens battlefield, where Saints were forbidden.

He could only go to the God Dynasty battlefields of other Lesser Worlds to absorb Extreme Way power. In addition, his Heavenly Star Meridian could also seek Extreme Way power while continuing to refine and cultivate, striving to reach Final Realm perfection.
