Chapter 379: Spreading the Dao to All Heavens (Guaranteed Update)

Bang!

In the Eternal Dao Domain, sword light blazed. As it suddenly contracted, the Void Ancestor, trapped within the Dao Domain, revealed shock and anger in his eyes. Then, his aged body abruptly exploded!

From the scattered flesh and blood, golden divine blood spurted out, surprisingly also at the Limit of Power!

The opponent's physical body had also cultivated to the Limit, reaching the pinnacle of humanity, but it was not sanctified through the physical body. It still couldn't withstand the suppression of the Eternal Dao Domain, which now integrated the Saintly Dao.

The golden divine blood spun rapidly, containing vigorous vitality, each drop like a dewdrop of life.

In the turbulent void, it could endure tempering without being destroyed, but Li Hao's Eternal Dao Domain was hundreds or thousands of times stronger than the turbulent void. In an instant, with a thought from him, all the golden divine blood was suppressed and extinguished. The golden light dissipated, like golden starlight fading into Li Hao's Dao Domain.

In the void, only the ray of lightning Emperor Weapon remained.

Li Hao could sense that his Eternal Dao Domain could not affect or destroy this Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon.

He raised his hand and beckoned, drawing the ray of lightning over and landing it in his palm. He detected a wisp of soul consciousness within it, quietly dissipating - it was indeed that of the Void Ancestor.

"Void Ancestor has fallen too!"

"Heavens, Void Ancestor was a monstrous talent from the era when the Supreme Saints were born, the Void Old Ancestor, known for his divine escape of hundreds of millions of miles, actually killed like this!"

"The Void Sacred Ground, is going to perish from this point on!"

Outside the arena, many Half-Saints who witnessed this scene were all stunned into silence.

This Void Ancestor was an old Saint who had been famous for many years, his reputation extremely resounding, and he was also the pillar of stability for the Void Sacred Ground. In the end, he couldn't escape from Li Hao's hands and was directly killed.

After killing the Void Ancestor, Li Hao did not pause and continued to kill the other Saints within the arena.

His Dao Domain suppressed and easily controlled these Saints whose Saintly Daos were fractured and whose cultivation was constantly declining.

Some Saints, seeing that pleading with the Supreme Saints was fruitless, could only beg Li Hao for mercy.

"Heavenly Venerable Hao, he is a Saint of my Thunderous Sanctuary, momentarily confused. Could you spare his life? I am willing to exchange five treasures of heaven and earth!"

At this moment, as Li Hao was about to annihilate a Saint whose entire body flickered with lightning, a Saint outside the arena suddenly spoke.

The speaker was middle-aged in appearance, with purple hair fluttering with lightning, and he spoke to Li Hao in a low and sincere voice.

The sword energy condensed at Li Hao's fingertip paused slightly. The Saint before him seemed to see hope and hurriedly said to Li Hao:

"That's right, Heavenly Venerable Hao, I myself am also willing to offer two treasures of heaven and earth as a gift to you. I was invited by that Buddha Venerable, I have no connection with him..."

Bang! Before he could finish speaking, the sword energy at Li Hao's fingertip suddenly shot out.

In an instant, it pierced through the Saint's body. Then, the sword energy spread out from within him, tearing him apart and turning him into nothingness.

"Heavenly Venerable Hao!"

The Thunder Saint outside the arena's expression changed abruptly, with some shock and anger.

Li Hao glanced sideways at him and said, "He was not momentarily confused, he was very clear-headed. On the contrary, it is you who are momentarily confused, actually pleading for him. He attempted to shatter my Saintly Dao, how can he be forgiven?"

Speaking of this, he continued, "I killed him, but you still have to give those five treasures of heaven and earth. That is a gift representing your Thunderous Sanctuary's apology. Otherwise, when he was discussing the Dao with me, why didn't you stop him? But now you want me to spare his life!"

Saying this, he coldly glanced at the Thunder Saint and continued to kill the other Saints.

The Thunder Saint was stunned, both shocked and angry. The person was killed, and treasures of heaven and earth still had to be given? Just as an apology?

He had seen domineering people, but never such domineering. But Li Hao's sidelong glance made him feel a sense of trembling. Provoking such a fellow, if not appeased, future troubles were to be feared.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As Li Hao continuously attacked, the thirteen Saints within the arena, except for the escaped Green Lamp Buddha, all perished.

Li Hao also realized that this Dao Tribulation Emperor Weapon was extremely rare. Apart from the Green Lamp Buddha and the Void Ancestor, none of the others possessed one, only Saintly Dao Emperor Weapons, treasures forged to the peak level.

But Saintly Dao Emperor Weapons now couldn't even harm his physical body, not even scratch the skin, utterly useless.

With the fall of 12 Saints, there was not much blood in the arena. It was all wiped away by Li Hao, annihilated and dissipated.

When Li Hao stopped, only he remained standing calmly in the arena.

Looking at that domineering and peerless figure, the Saints' eyes were solemn, and many Half-Saints' eyelids twitched violently. These were Saints, one of whom could only be born every thousand years, yet now 12 had fallen in one breath!

"He... is already this terrifying?"

Among the Half-Saints, Zhan Tan, Night Ancestor, Yao Chi, and many other Half-Saints who knew Li Hao were all in a daze, their hearts shaken beyond words.

When they met Li Hao, he was only in the Hearing Dao Realm. But in the blink of an eye, less than a year, he was slaughtering Saints as easily as chickens!

In this unusual silence throughout the arena, Li Hao looked around, glanced over the Thunder Saint who had just spoken, and said:

"Since it is a Dao discussion, it is also a discussion of life and death. They failed in the Dao discussion. If they are the masters of Sacred Grounds, I will destroy their Sacred Grounds. If they are not masters of Sacred Grounds, their Sacred Grounds of origin, like the Thunder Saint's, will compensate with five treasures of heaven and earth, and this matter will be considered settled!"

His words were clearly transmitted. The Saints recovered their senses, and many of their expressions slightly changed. Killing people and still demanding apologies, it was a bit too ruthless.

However, if it were them, they would also eliminate the root and branch. Saints do not stand under dangerous walls, they would naturally not be soft-hearted.

The Thunder Saint's face was grim. Li Hao said this in public, so he had to give the five treasures of heaven and earth. If he didn't, this guy would definitely come to the Thunderous Sanctuary and cause a great disturbance, which would be more loss than gain.

However, five treasures of heaven and earth were definitely a major hemorrhage for a Sacred Ground, and they might not be able to produce them in a short time.

"If you are unwilling to apologize, then I will visit you one by one and personally demand them!"

Li Hao looked at several Saints whose faces showed suppressed anger and said coldly.

"You have forced the Green Lamp Buddha away and killed the Void Ancestor, it should be over now. Their Sacred Grounds are innocent. As Saints, you shouldn't be so petty."

At this moment, the Law Saint, who had been silent for a long time, spoke out to advise.

Li Hao glanced at him and said, "Since they failed in the Dao discussion, it shows that their Daos are unqualified. If they are unqualified, leaving their Sacred Grounds to spread the Dao, wouldn't that be harming the world? Minor Daos have no need for wide dissemination!"

The Law Saint's expression slightly darkened, and he took a deep look at Li Hao, saying nothing more.

Now, he could no longer regard Li Hao as an ordinary Saint. He already had the qualifications to barely challenge the Supreme Saints. At least to kill Li Hao, it would be very difficult, unless using the method of besieging and killing the God Race Ancestor back then.

But... the Li Hao before them had not yet touched the interests of so many people, not to that extent yet.

After Li Hao finished speaking, seeing that no one objected, he withdrew his Saintly Dao, then glanced around. Without saying any more unnecessary words, he stepped down from the arena and returned to his futon.

As he walked, the gazes of the entire arena seemed to be glued to him. Even after Li Hao sat down, the gazes of the crowd still did not shift away.

If the Supreme Heavenly Pride Battle made Li Hao famous throughout the heavens, entering the eyes of many Saints and drawing attention to this monstrous talent, then this Dao discussion made all the Saints wary of him.

However, apart from the Saints, many Half-Saints, besides being shocked by Li Hao's rapid growth, had the sound of the Dao resonating in their minds, changing the embryonic forms of their Saintly Daos in their hearts.

If the embryonic form of a Saintly Dao is affected by a Dao discussion, it will change, but it will not fracture.

A Saint's Saintly Dao is already established and cannot be reshaped. Therefore, if impacted, it will only fracture or shatter.

But the embryonic form of a Saintly Dao, like a sprout in its tender stage, is about to absorb external great Daos as insights.

Li Hao's Dao Scripture, like a Supreme Saint preaching the Dao, influenced all the Half-Saints present.

Among them, some reincarnated Saints, who had the foundation of their previous Saintly Daos, now had to choose either to abandon the will of their previous Saintly Daos, or to follow Li Hao's great Dao and forge a brand-new path.

And if they chose to accept Li Hao's Dao preaching and change, then Li Hao would be considered half their master.

During this Dao discussion, Li Hao was also spreading the Dao to all heavens. He was not stingy in spreading the great Dao; this was great merit.

Moreover, in this Dao discussion, although all the Saints were shocked, Li Hao knew that his Saintly Dao had not been fully revealed.

He only revealed half of his Dao Scripture. If the entire scripture were revealed, and all of his Saintly Dao were shown, even the Supreme Saints would be affected. At that time, he might face the same danger as the God Race Ancestor.

Although his Saintly Dao was strong, his own combat strength could not currently compare to a Supreme Saint. Li Hao himself was not sure how big the gap was, because he had not yet fought against a Supreme Saint, and he was not confident in his heart.

Especially if the threat was too great, and the Supreme Saints joined forces, it would be even more unbearable.

Earlier in the arena, if it had not been a Dao discussion, and the Void Ancestor and others had revealed their own Saintly Daos, which were shattered by his Saintly Dao, it would not have been so easy to kill them all. At least a few would have broken free from his Dao Domain and escaped.

Now that his Saintly Dao had been revealed, the other Saints were also prepared. Without absolute certainty, they would not discuss the Dao with him. Even if they became enemies, they would only fight, not discuss the Dao.

As Li Hao sat upright on the futon, a long time passed. The scene gradually filled with low whispers and discussions.

But in the arena, it was extremely empty, and no one else went on stage to discuss the Dao.

The intense confrontation just now, besides shocking everyone with the fall of 12 Saints, now as they came to their senses, they were all digesting and absorbing Li Hao's Dao preaching during the discussion.

Many Saints had just hidden their Saintly Daos to avoid being influenced by Li Hao, but this action would also damage their Saintly Daos. After all, from the bottom of their hearts, it was equivalent to admitting that their own Saintly Daos were not the great Dao.

In the past, when Supreme Saints discussed the Dao, they would also listen to the Dao and seal off their own Saintly Daos. Although they knew they were inferior, they would feel that it was not their Saintly Daos that were not good, but that they themselves were not good, not having cultivated to perfection.

Supreme Saints were Supreme Saints, digging deeper into their Saintly Daos than them, which was normal. But now Li Hao was a First Tribulation Saint, yet his Saintly Dao went directly to the root of the great Dao, which made it impossible for them to deceive themselves from their hearts.

And in the arena, there was only one person who was not affected, and that was the Lie Heaven Saint.

The moment she was affected, she told herself a lie and deceived herself.

In this low-voiced conversation, Origin Ancestor and the others did not urge anyone, but silently pondered other matters.

A long time passed, a very long time.

Only then did a Saint get up, continue to go on stage, and choose their Dao discussion opponent.

The Dao discussion conference, which had come to a standstill, continued again, but compared to before, it seemed much more subdued.

Many Half-Saints originally had great enthusiasm for the Saints' Dao discussions, thinking they could find opportunities here to further improve the embryonic forms of their Saintly Daos. But now, Li Hao's Dao preaching had shown them such a path, and they were no longer so concerned about the Dao discussions of other Saints.

As time passed, Saints took turns going on stage to discuss the Dao. Li Hao also listened, but the more he listened, the more boring he found it.

The Daos of the Saints were all glimpses of a corner of heaven and earth. Even if cultivated to the extreme, they only touched the Heavenly Dao, not to the point of transforming into the Heavenly Dao!

In his spare time listening, Li Hao noticed a trace of aura fluctuation. Turning his head to look, he saw Lin Qingying sitting upright among the Half-Saints outside the arena, her whole body seemingly entering a state of enlightenment, with faint Dao rhythm surrounding her.

Li Hao could see that she was comprehending Nothingness.

The Dao of Nothingness is the Dao, Non-action is the beginning of heaven and earth!

If she could thoroughly comprehend it, perhaps, she could surpass the Origin Ancestor's Origin Great Dao.

Li Hao's eyes flickered. Because she was comprehending the Dao of Nothingness, the commotion caused by Lin Qingying was extremely small, almost imperceptible. If he was not also deeply versed in this Dao, he would not have been able to detect it.

A smile appeared at the corner of Li Hao's mouth. He didn't look anymore. Now, his every move was attracting a lot of attention. To avoid exposing Lin Qingying to the Saints' eyes because of his gaze, it was better to keep a low profile and lie low before she succeeded in cultivation.

...

The Dao discussion conference lasted for half a month. When the Saints discussed the Dao, some lasted half a day before ending, and some lasted a day and a night.

As the conference approached its end, the Chaos Heaven Saint, the Medicine Saint, and others came to the arena and took turns preaching the Dao.

They were not looking for someone to discuss the Dao with. Having reached their level of cultivation, unless they had enmity with other Supreme Saints, they would not easily discuss the Dao.

But preaching the Dao would not affect their own Saintly Daos.

The Medicine Saint believed that heaven and earth were inherently flawed, so they needed healing. This healing was not just at the level of treating patients. Making anything go from flawed to perfect was the Dao of Medicine.

Cultivation was also like this. Reaching the ultimate realm was perfection, and this process was also "healing."

The Medicine Saint's Dao preaching, if it were in the past, would definitely give many Half-Saints a feeling of enlightenment.

But now, the reaction was relatively muted, and not many Half-Saints were affected.

Because according to Li Hao's previous Dao discussion, the flaws of heaven and earth were the norm and did not need to be modified.

The original appearance of heaven and earth was the Heavenly Dao. Perfection or flaws, weakness or strength, were all rules set by humans, and cognitive judgments given by them.

A mayfly dies in a day, can it compare lifespan with a tortoise?

If one says a mayfly is weak, a mayfly can experience birth, aging, and death in a single day, while a tortoise needs long years. How can they be compared?

A depression in the land is not as tall as a majestic peak, but a depression can accumulate tens of thousands of tons of water, while a majestic peak is just a pile of earth. When full, it becomes a waterfall, flowing to other places.

Strength and weakness, good and evil, are not within the scope of the great Dao's arguments. The great Dao is the great Dao, eternally unchanging, standing here, unaffected by anything.

The influence brought by this Dao concept, preaching to the world, if people can deeply understand it, they will not be anxious, will not embark on the path arranged by secular society from birth, anxiously chasing the shadows of countless predecessors, and ultimately falling in the tomb of others' shadows.

The Chaos Heaven Saint preached the Dao of the Physical Body, condensing oneself, viewing oneself as heaven and earth.

But this followed the path of body refinement. Many Half-Saints were not very interested. This path was too time-consuming, too bitter and tiring.

Those who cultivated to Half-Saint were not afraid of hardship, but this was extraordinary suffering.

Finally, Origin Ancestor preached the Dao, expounding his Origin Great Dao, famous throughout the heavens.

But this time, as Origin Ancestor preached the Dao, many Half-Saints listened, but felt it was not as shocking as before, even causing them to think. Origin refers to heaven and earth, but the great Dao was born before heaven and earth. Was what Origin Ancestor cultivated the great Dao?

But no one asked, after all, Origin Ancestor's Origin Great Dao was already famous throughout the heavens, and there was no room for debate.

As the Dao discussion conference ended, the news of the fall of twelve Saints spread out and was secretly learned by many divine dynasties and great powers. For a time, the entire heavens were shaken.

Countless divine dynasties and powers heard the name Heavenly Venerable Hao again, but this time it was even greater and more exaggerated than the Supreme Heavenly Pride Battle. He had actually discussed the Dao with thirteen Saints and killed them all!

Rumors spread that Li Hao's Saintly Dao was comparable to a Supreme Saint's, and he already possessed the demeanor of a future Supreme Saint!

Combining many rumors, the authenticity of this news was very high. A Supreme Saint only had a chance to be born once every ten thousand years, and they were top-tier existences among Saints, the people who truly held the power of speech in the heavens.

As the aftermath of the Dao discussion conference fermented, Li Hao immediately felt that, besides the unchanging incense from the Great Yu Divine Dynasty drifting over, from all over the Sacred Grounds of the Saints, a large amount of incense suddenly emerged and gathered onto him.

The incense in his body was constantly accumulating and absorbing, and the three incense sticks were becoming thicker and stronger.

If he could maintain this speed all along, in another thousand years, Li Hao felt he could reach the Incense God Realm.

But this was the ideal scenario. Time would make everything diminish, make memories blur. Some believers would experience birth, aging, sickness, and death, and newborns would need to continue to hear his name to gain incense.

To maintain a thousand years of flourishing reputation, unless he truly became a Supreme Saint, it would slowly decline with time.

After all, in the heavens world, many people already believed in Supreme Saints. Even if a peerless monstrous talent was born, compared to a Supreme Saint, they were still too small. The end of the cultivation path was Supreme Sainthood. Instead of believing in a monstrous talent with suspected potential to become a Supreme Saint during growth, it was better to directly believe in a Supreme Saint.

As the Dao discussion conference ended and people dispersed, Old Feng, the Lie Heaven Saint, the Sword Master, and others came to Li Hao's side to congratulate him.

The Sword Saint also came before Li Hao, his heart extremely complicated.

He had not expected that his disciple's fiancé would be such a monstrous talent. From the first moment he saw Li Hao until now, it had been less than two years. At that time, the other party was just a junior in his Sacred Ground, and he could easily suppress him with a slight display of Saintly majesty.

But now, for the other party to slaughter Saints like him, or even stronger ones, was as easy as flipping his hand.

Not a Supreme Saint, but he belonged to the realm of having half a foot into the Supreme Saint domain, his status surpassing the Three Tribulations, second only to Supreme Saints!

In addition to these acquaintances, many other Saints also came before Li Hao, taking the initiative to be

friend him.

Li Hao couldn't help but sigh, when one's strength becomes powerful, all you see around you are enthusiastic faces.

Supreme Saints also left the arena one after another. Before leaving, the Medicine Saint came to Li Hao's side, inviting him to continue resting in the Medicine Family Sacred Ground, wanting to discuss the Great Dao with Li Hao.

Li Hao politely declined, he was still waiting to flatten the Buddhist Sect and the Void Sacred Ground.

Seeing this, the Medicine Saint understood Li Hao's urgency. After all, if he went late, even if the Sacred Grounds were flattened, there wouldn't be much good stuff left.

She immediately changed the subject, inviting Li Hao to visit the Qiankun World more often when he had time.

Li Hao readily agreed.

After the Medicine Saint left, the Mo Family Supreme Saint also came before Li Hao, with Mo Family Saint Yuan Zhou by his side.

Yuan Zhou, seeing Li Hao, had a gentle smile, more amiable than when he first met Li Hao, with a hint of humility.

He had not expected that the young man who had sought his escort back then would now be so terrifying.

"Heavenly Venerable Hao's Great Dao discourse is deeply rooted in people's hearts. After experiencing the Three Tribulations, you will be able to achieve Supreme Sainthood."

The Mo Family Supreme Saint, dressed in a cyan robe, looked gentle and refined, and smiled lightly at Li Hao.

"Thank you for the escort previously."

Li Hao cupped his hands in thanks.

Old Feng had sought help from the Mo Family, and Yuan Zhou was sent by the Mo Family Supreme Saint. Li Hao held goodwill towards them.

"That was not my intention. Although Dao Saint came to ask for my help, even before he sought me out, someone already wanted to help, but he couldn't spare time at the moment. He didn't come to this Dao discussion conference either, he is in the process of comprehending the transformation of his own Great Dao."

The Mo Family Supreme Saint smiled slightly, and said.

Li Hao was slightly stunned, and asked in surprise, "May I ask who it is?"

"Perhaps you know him, his surname is Jiang."

The Mo Family Supreme Saint seemed to know Li Hao's past, a smile on his lips, and said, "Previously, there was also a little fellow with innate sword bones, who was also brought to our Sacred Ground, and is now in closed-door cultivation with him."

Surname Jiang? Li Hao immediately thought of Emperor Yu, and was slightly taken aback.

Emperor Yu was accumulating incense, only to revive the Jiang family ancestor, could it be...

"Jiang Tianyu is a Saint of my Mo Family. After experiencing the Three Tribulations, he was ambushed and failed during the Heavenly Tribulation, but his Saintly Dao did not completely dissipate. A wisp of soul consciousness was hidden in the Saintly Dao. His descendants collected incense for him, and finally resurrected him."

The Mo Family Supreme Saint said with a smile, "It is still hard to say whether this is a blessing or a curse. He experienced the Heavenly Tribulation and fell, this time he has gained great insights, perhaps he can go further. Before going into closed-door cultivation, he learned of your news, and asked me to take care of you. Therefore, even if Dao Saint didn't come to ask, I would still have Yuan Zhou assist."

He explained the matter, without using helping Li Hao as a way to curry favor or get closer.

Li Hao suddenly understood, it really was the Jiang family ancestor.

"Was he ambushed by whom? Has the grudge been avenged? If incense was needed for resurrection, then your esteemed ground..."

Li Hao looked at the Mo Family Supreme Saint, a little puzzled.

The Mo Family Supreme Saint, hearing Li Hao's words, slightly shook his head and sighed, "This matter is complicated. We didn't know about his fall. He was ambushed, and it was also due to a traitor appearing in my sect. Therefore, at the moment of his fall, he only relied on the power of his descendants for resurrection, and did not contact us. It was not until after his resurrection that I found out, and I also avenged him."

Li Hao's eyes flickered. The affairs between these Saints were indeed complex.

Now it seemed that the Jiang family ancestor and the Mo Family Sacred Ground had made peace, perhaps the misunderstanding had truly been resolved.

"If you have time, you are welcome to visit my Mo Family Sacred Ground."

The Mo Family Supreme Saint did not say more, left an invitation for Li Hao, and then left with Yuan Zhou.

Li Hao agreed, he also wanted to meet that Jiang family ancestor.

And the little fellow with sword bones that the Mo Family Supreme Saint mentioned, was most likely Jiang Linchen. He had unexpectedly wandered to the Mo Family Sacred Ground, and hadn't stayed in the Cloud Radiance World. No wonder he hadn't been seen at the Supreme Heavenly Pride Battle and the Dao discussion conference.

With the other party's talent, if he cultivated seriously, Li Hao felt that even if his age exceeded the Supreme Heavenly Pride Battle, he could at least secure a place at the Dao discussion conference and be able to observe.

After all, besides the Half-Saints in the Heavenly Dao Arena, there were also many personally transmitted disciples of Saints under the arena, such as Lin Baichuan, Holy Son Haoyue, Chi Guang, and others.
