Chapter 412: One Person Guards All Heavens

The Saints all realized this point as well, and their expressions instantly changed. The Immortal Gate had been breached? Didn't this mean that the worst-case scenario Li Hao had spoken of had come to pass?

If that was the case, the entire All Heavens… would be destroyed!

Thinking of this, an indescribable feeling arose in the hearts of the Saints – fear, regret, and heartache.

"No, it's not the Immortal Gate. It's a powerful Ancient Demon invasion, it should be the Second-Order Ancient Demons that Celestial Venerable Haotian spoke of, and there's more than one!"

Seeing the Saints' changed complexions, that Saint hastily steadied his breath and said.

Second-Order Ancient Demons?

Hearing this, Yuan Ancestor and the others felt their tightly clenched hearts slightly relax. Although Li Hao had said that Second-Order Ancient Demons were even more terrifying, as long as the Immortal Gate hadn't been breached, there was still hope.

"Go."

Yuan Ancestor didn't hesitate and immediately led the Saints to depart.

Soon, they arrived at the ancient palace in the void. As soon as they reached this place, they felt terrifying pressure emanating from within the palace.

Yuan Ancestor's face changed. Sensing that intense and violent baleful aura, he immediately knew that this was the movement of a God-King's battle, and a major one at that, only seen when a God-King unleashed their true power in a desperate fight.

He quickly led everyone inside. Although they were enemies with the God-King and wanted to kill each other, at this moment they knew that if one side was missing, it would be an impossible situation to handle alone. Unless someone could win over Li Hao as an ally, but Li Hao belonged to a third party and was on opposing sides with both of them.

Entering the ancient palace, passing through complex paths and side hall buildings, they quickly arrived at the fissure.

Outside the fissure, three Ancient Demons were engaged in a fierce battle with seven Saints. Within the fissure, however, a bright red light was emanating, and within that light, dark black mist was churning.

"Quick, help!"

Yuan Ancestor's expression instantly changed, somewhat shocked that the Ancient Demons had actually managed to reach outside the fissure.

It was important to know that the Immortal Gate's breach was narrow, allowing Ancient Demons to only enter one at a time.

Kill one as it comes, as long as the Immortal Gate isn't breached, they could hold it.

But now, so many Ancient Demons had appeared at once, making him realize the severity of the situation.

The Saints took action one after another, quickly attacking the three Ancient Demons. Yuan Ancestor, however, led Law Saint, Name Saint, Mohist Saint, and a few other Supreme Saints, and charged into the starry sky within the fissure.

That intense bright red light radiated an aura of destruction. This was the God-King's domain.

Within his domain, the God-King was disheveled, his armor covered in blood, and he looked somewhat weary.

Before him, there were three enormous Ancient Demons, surrounding the God-King and constantly rotating, stirring up dark black whirlwinds containing the power to devour primordial spirits. They shot out streaks of demon blades, piercing into the God-King's Saint Domain, forcing him to parry and block with exhaustion.

"Three?"

Yuan Ancestor's face changed again. He sensed extremely deep malice and majesty from these three Ancient Demons. Were these the Second-Order Ancient Demons Li Hao spoke of?

He immediately unleashed his Origin Saint Domain, enveloping the starry sky. Within his Saint Domain, time seemed to slow down.

"What's going on?"

He urgently asked the God-King.

Seeing them arrive, the God-King breathed a sigh of relief, and with a grim face, said: "A Second-Order Ancient Demon came, using that special Soul-Devouring Mist to guard the breach, I can't break through it. The other Ancient Demons took the opportunity to climb in."

Yuan Ancestor instantly understood. A single Second-Order Ancient Demon could actually pave the way.

"Be careful, they are much stronger than those Third-Order Ancient Demons."

The God-King whispered a reminder to Law Saint and the others.

Third-Order Ancient Demons were comparable to Supreme Saints. The power of Second-Order Ancient Demons was already equivalent to the Supreme Saint God Realm.

"Kill, we must block them!"

Yuan Ancestor's gaze was incredibly solemn. He took out the Heaven-Suppressing Whip and charged towards one of the Ancient Demons. "You guys restrain the other one, I'll deal with this one!"

As he spoke, the Heaven-Suppressing Whip swung, and a terrifying explosive whip sound echoed through the void. The black mist around the Ancient Demon was actually shaken into holes by this sound, and then the long whip pierced through, striking the Ancient Demon's head, directly whipping it until flesh was torn open. Tribulation Force at the wound prevented it from healing.

Yuan Ancestor unleashed his full power and quickly attacked.

The Second-Order Ancient Demon, injured, seemed enraged, letting out a sharp cry. Immediately, black flames appeared all over its body, and a vortex-like black shadow appeared behind it.

As the black shadow rotated, a powerful suction force made Yuan Ancestor feel like his primordial spirit was leaving his body. The power to control the Heaven-Suppressing Whip instantly weakened significantly.

He was shocked. These Ancient Demon's various methods seemed to be able to cause harm and influence to the primordial spirit.

However, his primordial spirit was already at the extreme limit. He also mastered some special spirit-refining methods, allowing his primordial spirit to be slightly enhanced even at the extreme limit, through primordial spirit secret techniques.

Boom!

Yuan Ancestor suddenly exploded. Cold jade-colored light burst from his eyes, his primordial spirit and body instantly fused tightly together, and he lashed out with a whip.

The Ancient Demon's body was torn open. Tribulation Force destroyed it, preventing its flesh body from healing.

Having landed this blow successfully, Yuan Ancestor just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that a large amount of black mist was actually spreading out from the torn body. The Soul-Devouring power emanating from the mist was like corrosive blood, untouchable.

Roar!

At this moment, from the Immortal Gate's breach, a low roar sounded again.

Immediately after, from within the black mist, another Second-Order Ancient Demon, even larger in size, flew out.

Seeing the scene before it, the Ancient Demon quickly roared and charged towards Yuan Ancestor.

"This…"

Yuan Ancestor's pupils slightly constricted.

...

...

In the void.

After two days of burning the midnight oil, Li Hao finally completed the construction of the Holy Land.

Yesterday, he thought the Saints would come again, but they didn't, which surprised Li Hao, but he didn't think too much about it.

Now that the Holy Land was completed, he released an avatar within it, and then used the panel attribute to create his Dark Aspect Clone as well.

He handed a broken Immortal Sword to the Dark Aspect Clone. If they encountered a Third-Order Ancient Demon, the Dark Aspect Clone could also kill it.

Having done all this, Li Hao used his primordial spirit to cover the entire Holy Land, and then planned to go to the Human Realm to bring the common people of the Great Yu Divine Dynasty into the Holy Land.

"Celestial Venerable Haotian, something bad has happened."

Just as Li Hao was about to act, Medicine Saint suddenly found Li Hao, with a heavy expression on her face. "I just received news that several minor worlds have been attacked by Ancient Demons. I used the Thousand-Faced Puppet that Mohist Saint once gifted me to investigate the ancient palace. On the way, I encountered the retreating Yuan Ancestor and the Saints in defeat."

"Mohist Saint informed me that the ancient palace has already been occupied by Ancient Demons, and the breach cannot be blocked. They've tried their best."

Li Hao frowned and his mind raced. "Among those Ancient Demons, are there any larger in size?"

Medicine Saint nodded. "Yuan Ancestor said they encountered the Second-Order Ancient Demon invasion you spoke of. They couldn't stop them and lost the initiative. Seven or eight Saints have already fallen. Now they are fleeing towards here, hoping we can put aside past grievances and accept them."

"If our positions were reversed, they might not accept us."

Li Hao sneered, extremely dissatisfied with the Saints. He said, "Even if they are Second-Order Ancient Demons, if they fully concentrated on blocking the breach, they could still block it. Those Second-Order Ancient Demons can only come in one at a time, kill one as it comes! I already told them before that Second-Order Ancient Demons are terrifying, but they still only left a portion of people to guard the breach, while the rest wandered around pointlessly. In the end, they only know pain when they are hurt!"

Hearing this, Medicine Saint sighed in her heart. The day before yesterday, Yuan Ancestor and the Saints were still trying to find ways to seek refuge from Li Hao, and never intended to solve the problem at all.

However, she could understand that this matter was unsolvable, but making mistakes always came with a price.

It's just that it was the common people of All Heavens who were suffering.

Seeing Medicine Saint's hesitant expression, Li Hao guessed that she was still soft-hearted. He didn't say anything else, only said:

"When they come over, they should have Ancient Demons chasing them from behind, right?"

Medicine Saint immediately understood Li Hao's meaning, and the hint of softness in her heart immediately disappeared. She nodded and said, "That's right, I used the Thousand-Faced Puppet to investigate, and there are Ancient Demons chasing after them."

"Saying they are coming to seek help, but they are also bringing the disaster here."

Li Hao slightly shook his head. He was already utterly disappointed with them, and now he didn't feel much emotional disturbance.

He retracted his primordial spirit that covered the holy mountain, and then stood in the high sky at the peak of the holy mountain. He asked Medicine Saint to point out the direction, and then quietly waited.

Seeing Li Hao's actions, Medicine Saint was a little surprised. She originally thought that Li Hao would turn around and leave when he heard this, but unexpectedly he would actually stay.

"Are you going to help them?"

Medicine Saint couldn't help but ask.

Even she, realizing the intentions of Yuan Ancestor and the Saints, had the impulse to turn around and leave, but Li Hao had stopped instead.

"Keeping them alive still has some use."

Li Hao only said this.

Before long, they saw a group of figures tearing open the fissures of heaven and earth, constantly shifting and moving over.

At this time, Sword Master also sensed the aura of the Saints. With a flash of his figure, he came to Li Hao's side at the peak of the mountain.

"They…"

Sword Master just opened his mouth when he saw the gloomy void behind the Saints, with rolling dark clouds sweeping over, and his expression changed.

Li Hao didn't speak, just slowly walked out of the holy mountain.

At this time, Yuan Ancestor and God-King, who were at the very front, also saw Li Hao's figure, and immediately sped up their movement.

"Celestial Venerable Haotian, those behind are Second-Order Ancient Demons, we can't stop them alone. Let's join forces!"

As soon as Yuan Ancestor saw Li Hao, he hurriedly said.

His expression was urgent, but his heart was clear as a mirror, knowing that Li Hao would see through his intention of leading these Ancient Demons here. Fearing that Li Hao would get angry, he pretended to just want to borrow some of Li Hao's power to jointly kill the demons.

God-King was not like Yuan Ancestor who liked to act, too lazy to pretend, just staring intently at Li Hao, wanting to wait for Li Hao's attitude.

Li Hao's gaze swept past, Law Saint and Name Saint and other Supreme Saints behind them also looked somewhat disheveled.

The auras of the other Saints were somewhat erratic, and some Saints were even spiritless, with serious injuries.

Roar!

At this moment, the roar of the Ancient Demons reverberated over.

The entire void was trembling slightly, like endless rolling thunder gathering over.

Everyone resting on the holy mountain was alarmed, and looked in horror at the direction of the sound, seeing Li Hao and the Saints, and behind the Saints, the Ancient Demons constantly approaching.

There were a large number of these Ancient Demons, as many as a dozen, with four Second-Order Ancient Demons leading them.

Such a lineup caused the entire sky to darken, and the strong malice and soul-pressure made everyone on the holy mountain feel their pores tighten, their hearts chilled, and a sense of coldness rising from the soles of their feet straight to the top of their heads.

"What, what are those monsters?"

"Those are Ancient Demons, I've seen them before."

"Are those Ancient Demons chasing the Saints? They, how could they bring these demons here?"

The people on the holy mountain were terrified.

They knew their purpose of coming here was to avoid the Ancient Demons who were about to invade All Heavens. They didn't expect that when the Saints arrived, the Ancient Demons would also arrive with them.

At this time, the dozen or so Ancient Demons were getting closer and closer, and the cruelty and violence in the eyes of the leading four Second-Order Ancient Demons suddenly contained a hint of solemnity.

They faintly felt that among the crowd in front of them, there was a figure whose soul power was extremely thick, completely different from the others beside him.

"Join forces?"

Hearing Yuan Ancestor's words, a sneer appeared on the corner of Li Hao's lips.

Yuan Ancestor and the Saints' hearts sank, thinking that Li Hao was unwilling to agree.

"Celestial Venerable Haotian…"

Before Yuan Ancestor could speak again, Li Hao interrupted him, saying indifferently: "I will deal with these Ancient Demons, but this is the last time I'm cleaning up your messes. After the Ancient Demons are killed, you continue to obediently block that breach for me. If you let Ancient Demons in again, no one can save you!"

Yuan Ancestor and the others were stunned, suspecting that their ears had deceived them. Li Hao was actually willing to take action.

They were somewhat pleasantly surprised. The Saints' gazes towards Li Hao instantly changed from the previous indignation to excitement. They felt a sense of shame in their hearts. At this moment, they realized that this young man was indeed not a despicable villain as Sword Master and Medicine Saint had said.

"Celestial Venerable Haotian, these Ancient Demons are very terrifying, especially those Second-Order Ancient Demons you mentioned. Even God-King and I feel they are troublesome. Let's join forces!"

Yuan Ancestor said to Li Hao with visible excitement on his face, his words adding a bit of fervor and sincerity.

But Li Hao turned a blind eye to the emotional expressions on his face. This old fox, what he allowed you to see was mostly what he deliberately showed, and what he truly thought in his heart might be another matter entirely.

But Li Hao didn't have the mind to explore his true thoughts, just lifted his foot and walked forward.

Yuan Ancestor and God-King were slightly taken aback, and involuntarily stepped aside to let him pass.

At this time, those Ancient Demons had already slowed down and arrived in front of the Saints.

They didn't recklessly attack like before, because they faintly felt a threat from the young man in the crowd.

They devoured souls, and their perception of souls was extremely keen. They could also perceive the dangerous aura emanating from that young man.

But similarly, they had a feeling that if they could absorb this young man's soul, they might undergo a great transformation and improvement, and even hope to impact the First-Order Leader Realm.

At this time, the Saints also noticed the changes in these Ancient Demons. Unlike the anger and madness they showed during the battles with them, they saw solemn and fearful expressions in these Ancient Demons' eyes instead.

The Saints suspected it was their illusion, somewhat shocked.

The noisy wind in the void seemed to have quieted down a bit at this moment.

"Celestial Venerable Haotian…"

Yuan Ancestor still wanted to speak.

But spatial fissures appeared around Li Hao, and immediately afterwards, incomplete immortal artifacts extended out from the fissures.

In the territory of those Ancient Demon leaders that the red-tasseled spear woman killed and Li Hao and Nangong Jian swept through, they had scavenged a total of eight incomplete immortal weapons, all with exhausted immortal power, but the weapons themselves still retained sharp immortal blades.

Adding the broken sword, there were nine in total.

One was currently in the hands of the Dark Aspect Clone.

Only six were conjured by Li Hao's side. Facing this small lineup of over a dozen Ancient Demons, it was already enough.

These incomplete ancient immortal weapons rotated around Li Hao like a roulette. He seemed to be the destined master of heaven and earth, carrying the might of solely suppressing the world. The Saints around him seemed to have become insignificant backdrops. Only he, standing in front of a dozen enormous Ancient Demons, his body small as an ant in comparison, radiated bright divine light and power.

This scene made countless people seeking refuge on the holy mountain look on in a daze.

"Brother Hao!"

"Hao'er!"

The Li family also saw this scene, covering their mouths, their eyes filled with shock.

At this moment, the Ancient Demons also sensed the increasingly powerful dangerous aura on Li Hao, and finally couldn't restrain themselves. They roared and charged towards Li Hao.

Accompanied by the spreading dark black Soul-Devouring Mist, vortexes like black holes appeared behind the Ancient Demons, radiating terrifying suction power.

The Saints felt their primordial spirits in their bodies swaying, as if about to break out of their bodies and be sucked into those vortexes.

But the six incomplete immortal weapons revolving around Li Hao suddenly shot out.

The familiarity of repeatedly dissecting the Ancient Demon's body flashed in Li Hao's mind. In an instant, driven by his primordial spirit, the immortal weapons burst out with extreme speed, instantly drawing streaks of light-like shadows.

The void here was not as solid and solidified as the True World. Where the immortal weapons passed, people's eyes couldn't keep up with the weapons, but they saw black marks being drawn open in the void.

As the black marks appeared, the Ancient Demon's body also burst open.

Their flesh bodies instantly stiffened, as if struck by billions of volts of electricity, instantly rigid. Then, a black, smoke-filled primordial spirit shook out from the Ancient Demon's body.

Before the Ancient Demon's primordial spirit could react, Li Hao's primordial spirit had already risen from the top of his head, like a celestial deity rushing out from the young man's body, radiating golden light all over, and charged towards the Ancient Demon's body.

"He, his primordial spirit is golden?"

The Saints couldn't clearly see Li Hao's primordial spirit because it was too fast, but they could see that the primordial spirit actually radiated golden light, and they were all shocked.

Moreover, they sensed that Li Hao's primordial spirit carried terrifying soul pressure, which had already far surpassed their extreme limit primordial spirits!

Boom!

As the primordial spirit charged out, the four Second-Order Ancient Demons bore the brunt, and were cleaved apart by Li Hao's primordial spirit with hand blades.

Then, a golden arc of light flashed past, killing into the primordial spirits of the Third-Order Ancient Demons. In the blink of an eye, the arc of light ended, and the Ancient Demons' primordial spirits also all exploded and dissipated.

Heaven and earth were silent.

The Ancient Demons' roars seemed to be echoing from yesterday, seeming extremely unreal at this moment.

Li Hao raised his hand. As the six incomplete immortal swords successively returned to their places and were collected into his heaven and earth space, the Saints gradually regained their senses.

But looking at the dozen or so Ancient Demons in the void that were already stiff and without any life aura, the Saints were dumbfounded, their faces filled with unbelievable shock.

Although they had seen Li Hao instantly kill a Third-Order Ancient Demon in the ancient palace before, they thought it was Li Hao unleashing his full power. They didn't expect that at this moment, between raising his hands, over a dozen Ancient Demons were also instantly killed by Li Hao. All of this was too fast.

Yuan Ancestor and God-King were somewhat absent-minded. Although they had expected Li Hao to be strong, they didn't expect him to be this terrifying.

That primordial spirit glowing with golden light was hard to erase from their minds.

Li Hao raised his hand and successively collected all the dozen or so Ancient Demons in the void into his heaven and earth space as well.

In the blink of an eye, the void that was previously overcast with dark clouds instantly returned to clarity. The hideous Ancient Demon corpses also disappeared without a trace.

On the holy mountain, everyone was blankly watching this scene. Those terrifying Ancient Demons were actually instantly killed by Celestial Venerable Haotian. This was too exaggerated.

"Now, you should return to that ancient palace and continue to fulfill your duties, to make up for your mistakes."

Li Hao turned around and said indifferently to the Saints and Yuan Ancestor.

Yuan Ancestor came back to his senses. At this moment, he understood why Li Hao had directly refused when he proposed joining forces earlier.

To deal with these Ancient Demons, Li Hao didn't need their help at all.

Slightly pausing for a moment, Yuan Ancestor's face suddenly revealed excitement. He said to Li Hao, "Celestial Venerable Haotian, if you have such strength, we don't need to seek refuge at all. These Ancient Demons can't break in at all!"

Li Hao's eyes turned cold. "Didn't I make it clear before? These are only Second-Order Ancient Demons. If their leader-level Ancient Demons come, even I can only avoid them. Those are genuine True Immortal level existences. Moreover, behind them there are even more terrifying commanders. That kind of existence might even be able to destroy the Immortal Gate!"

Hearing Li Hao's words, everyone felt as if cold water had been poured on them, and instantly calmed down again.

"Nan, could it be that there's really no way?"

A Saint said in a trembling voice.

Li Hao glanced at him and said indifferently: "If you still see yourselves as Saints, then take on your responsibilities. The only way is to block the breach and wait for reinforcements from the immortal army outside. If we can wait for them, we can all be saved. If we can't wait, even I might be buried with you."

Hearing Li Hao say this, the Saints all looked mournful, and deeply regretted breaking the Immortal Path earlier, but time couldn't be reversed.

"Go, don't waste time here."

Li Hao waved his hand.

Yuan Ancestor and God-King's expressions changed. After being silent for a long while, Yuan Ancestor said in a low voice: "We will bear the mistakes we have made. Everyone, let's go!"

Seeing that even Yuan Ancestor had lowered his head, none of the Saints said anything else. Many Saints among them already knew in their hearts that if All Heavens was to suffer a calamity, this might be the only thing they could do for All Heavens before they died.

To delay the speed of All Heavens' decline.

"Celestial Venerable Haotian, if you personally went to block the breach…"

A Saint said in a low voice.

Before he could finish speaking, he felt many Saints around him looking at him, but their gazes were no longer like before, echoing him, but revealing a hint of indifference.

Li Hao coldly glanced at that Saint and said, "To block the Immortal Gate, one must be prepared to die. If the Ancient Demon commander can destroy the Immortal Gate, the first to die will be the people blocking the Immortal Gate. If I go to block it, then what about you?"

That Saint looked unsightly, lowered his head, and didn't say anything else.

"Celestial Venerable Haotian, don't be angry, he can't represent our thoughts. You are right, this is the mistake we made, and we should bear it ourselves."

"That's right, if the real catastrophe comes, then that is also our destiny."

The other Saints said to Li Hao.

Since the Immortal Gate was broken, and having experienced these events, many Saints among them also recognized the situation.

The desire to become immortals had transformed into the current hope for survival, but the hope for survival had been shattered. Now they only hoped to do as much good as possible in the end, at least not to fail the common people of All Heavens who once believed in them.

Yuan Ancestor said goodbye to Li Hao, and then led the Saints away.

"Senior Brother…"

Sword Saint glanced at Sword Master beside Medicine Saint. He was also one of the Saints, and now he could only go back to fulfill his mission of blocking the Immortal Gate.

Once, when their master passed down the Holy Land, he offered a sword and a talisman for them to choose.

The talisman was a holy talisman that could control the Sword Ancestor Holy Land.

He chose the talisman, while his senior brother chose the sword.

Subsequently, he inherited his master's sword path, while his senior brother pioneered his own sword path.

Now, another choice, he once again walked a different path from his senior brother. This time, perhaps it was an eternal farewell.

Sword Master looked at Sword Saint, his eyes also carrying a trace of complexity, but didn't say anything, only with regret and a sigh.

As Yuan Ancestor and God-King and the Saints left, Li Hao also withdrew his gaze, turned around and returned to the Holy Land.

Medicine Saint's expression was complicated. She didn't expect Li Hao to be so terrifying, no wonder he could live outside the Immortal Gate for twelve years.

"If they weren't so stubbornly ignorant, with your talent, if you waited until you cultivated to become an immortal, this world wouldn't be in such a state now."

Medicine Saint sighed.

Li Hao shook his head. The past couldn't be reversed, and saying these things was meaningless.

"This Holy Land, the two of you take care of it first. It seems there are Ancient Demons invading other places. It seems more than just these escaped. I'll go deal with them first."

Li Hao said to the two of them.

Medicine Saint was slightly stunned. Earlier, she had received information that many minor worlds had indeed encountered Ancient Demon attacks, but she didn't expect Li Hao to know as well.

"Be careful."

Medicine Saint instructed him.

But after saying that, she felt that her words seemed a bit superfluous, and couldn't help but smile bitterly at Li Hao.

Li Hao bid farewell to Sword Master by his side, and then turned and left.

He could tell that other worlds were being attacked by Ancient Demons because he saw that the incense power surging towards him in the void was much thicker than before, and the power of faith was also greatly reduced, indicating that many people who believed in him had encountered disasters.

Swoosh!

Li Hao flew out, his mind merged with heaven and earth, sensing the vague intention of the Heavenly Dao. Then, through heavenly secret deduction, he quickly felt a sense and guidance.

He immediately arrived at the nearest minor world.

As soon as he arrived here, Li Hao smelled the familiar scent of Ancient Demons.

Having eaten over ten thousand Ancient Demons, Li Hao was too familiar with the scent of Ancient Demons.

In a certain divine dynasty in this minor world.

Dark clouds covered the sky, and the huge figure of an Ancient Demon swept across the sky. The Soul-Devouring Domain it radiated swept across the city and land below. In an instant, countless common people in the city had their souls extracted and died on the spot. The low-level demons and beasts in the wilderness also had their souls extracted and fell to the ground.

Where the Ancient Demon flew, there was silence and death everywhere.

And the Saint of this minor world had already left. Those left behind in the Holy Land were all Half-Saints. Perhaps they were obeying the Saint's orders, only turning on the Holy Land's formation to protect the Holy Land, and had no ability to care about the disaster in that divine dynasty.

"Ancient Demons have descended, run quickly!"

"Help, help!"

"Why did the Saints let such monsters in? Who will come to save us?"

"Are there still Saints who pity us?"

Within the divine dynasty, there were cries of panic and escape everywhere.

The neighboring divine dynasties, having received the news, were also frantically and crowdedly fleeing in all directions, heading towards the Holy Land.

However, outside the Holy Land, a large number of common people had already gathered, but were blocked by the Holy Land's formation and couldn't get in.

"Let us in, let us in!"

"We, the people of Fufeng Kingdom, have believed in your Wood Ancestor for many years, why not let us in!"

"The Saints are unbenevolent, the Saints are unbenevolent!"

A sea of people gathered in front of the formation, all wailing and cursing.

And within the formation, most of these Holy Land disciples had their family roots in the divine dynasty. But at this moment, the Holy Land strictly ordered to seal off, and they could only watch helplessly as the divine dynasties where their families were located were isolated outside and cursed. They could only look at everything with complicated emotions, powerless to act.

"The Saints have gone to kill Ancient Demons, everyone retreat, return to your own divine dynasties, otherwise you will be killed without mercy!"

From the Holy Land, a Half-Saint stepped out and sternly shouted angrily.

They were worried that these people gathering would attract the Ancient Demons, and then everyone would be finished.

Hearing the Half-Saint's majestic and ruthless voice, the gathered common people were both frightened and angry. Perhaps it was because there were so many people that under the fear, countless roars of anger were aroused.

Seeing this, the Holy Land's Half-Saint's expression also turned ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"Last warning, retreat three thousand miles from the Holy Land, otherwise don't blame us for activating the Holy Formation and killing without mercy!"

As he spoke, he called upon many elders, and as the power of the Saint Path prototype surged into the Holy Formation, the Holy Formation radiated majestic and vast light.

Under this Saint's pressure, many common people were panic-stricken, while cursing angrily, they turned and fled with tears in their eyes.

The common people in front were fleeing, but more common people were gathering from various divine dynasties behind.

Those princes and princesses who were seeking refuge in the divine dynasty sat in luxurious carriages, but in the crowded crowd, the carriages were overturned, and they jumped out in a panic, frightened by the densely packed crowd before them.

As the Holy Formation exerted its pressure, the crowd fell into chaos. Countless weak common people who hadn't cultivated were trampled to death on the spot, trampled into minced meat.

In this chaos, suddenly, accompanied by a long whistle, a fissure opened in the sky, and dark black mist emanated from within. Immediately after, the huge and hideous body of an Ancient Demon flew out.

Instantly, the fleeing crowd, and the Holy Land disciples and many Half-Saints within the Holy Formation were all filled with horror.

As a piece of black mist fell down, immediately there were fearful screams as people fell to the ground, their souls extracted.

Just as the Ancient Demon was about to run rampant, suddenly, a beam of extreme light flew from the sky.

With a tseng sound, the Ancient Demon's majestic and imposing body suddenly stiffened, and immediately afterwards, a dark black primordial spirit was forced out of its flesh body.

Then, a golden light howled over.

Boom!

The Ancient Demon's primordial spirit also stopped moving, and then its body exploded.

This scene made the countless crowds on the ground look on in a daze. The intense and ear-piercing screams of terror instantly subsided a lot, leaving only some people who had been scared out of their wits, still burying their heads and desperately squeezing into the crowd, but finding that many people around them were no longer moving.

Then, there were countless excited voices roaring:

"A Saint, a Saint has come!"

In the void, Li Hao's figure stepped out through the fissure, casually retrieving the incomplete immortal sword.

He glanced at the crowded crowd below, and found that the number of people who were trampled to death by the closely gathered crowd was actually much higher than the number of people killed by the Ancient Demon in just a moment of its appearance.

He couldn't help but slightly shake his head, but didn't waste it, raising his hand to absorb the extreme Dao power on the ground.

As countless black energy gathered in his palm, Li Hao felt the extreme Dao power in his body also grow slightly.

This scene looked like a demonic act, but Li Hao had just killed the Ancient Demon, and no one would associate Li Hao with demons.

There were many Hearing Dao Realm and Four Establishments Realm cultivators, with strong physiques, who clearly saw Li Hao's face, and immediately excitedly shouted his name.

"It's Celestial Venerable Haotian, Celestial Venerable Haotian has come to save us!"

"Celestial Venerable Haotian, please save my daughter."

"Celestial Venerable Haotian…"

Accompanied by sorrowful calls, the crowd actually knelt down in layers like waves, worshiping Li Hao.

The many Half-Saints in the Holy Land were also shocked, and hurriedly bowed their heads to Li Hao. From the Realm Stone reflection, the Saints had cleared Li Hao's name of injustice, and Li Hao's reputation in All Heavens had reached its peak. After all, his courage to block the Saints alone in front of the Immortal Gate had shocked countless people.

Hearing these shouts, some were excited, some were pleasantly surprised, and some were crying mournfully in prayer. He sighed in his heart, under disaster, people's faces were completely changed.

However, he still had Ancient Demons in other minor worlds to kill, and obviously had no time to comfort them here.

Li Hao raised his hand, and in an instant, a towering giant peak rose from the ground.

This power to shake mountains and earth with a raised hand made countless people even more awestruck and excited.

Li Hao took the giant peak into his hand, and the primordial spirit's power of telekinesis shook, cutting the giant peak into a giant sword thousands of feet long.

Then, Li Hao adjusted his Qiankun Diagram attribute.

Earlier in the Human Realm, he had used the Qiankun Diagram attribute on the war flag, leaving his mark on the war flag, which could condense 50% of his power.

This mark could be used on any object, and at this moment Li Hao left it on this giant sword peak.

As the mark landed, Li Hao used the power of laws to transform this mountain peak, making it not easily destroyed, at least requiring the power of a Half-Saint to break it.

As long as the giant sword peak was destroyed, the mark could be activated, unleashing a strike comparable to 50% of his power.

This kind of attack, even without separating the Ancient Demon's flesh body and primordial spirit, was enough to forcefully suppress and kill Third-Order Ancient Demons with 50% of his primordial spirit power!

After the mark was made, Li Hao said calmly:

"This sword peak condenses my sword intent. If you encounter an enemy in desperate straits again, you can destroy it to release the sword intent to kill the enemy. You must not lightly use it unless in truly desperate straits!"

After speaking, he casually waved his hand, and the giant sword peak划过 countless people's heads, descending to a place next to the Holy Mountain.

The earth rumbled, and the ground trembled.

This tremor passed through everyone's feet, and they all felt it.

And although Li Hao's words were calm, they seemed to echo in countless people's minds, carrying a soul-stirring power.

For a time, countless people were shocked and pleasantly surprised and excited, everywhere shouting the name of Haotian.

Li Hao didn't stay any longer, turned around and stepped through the fissure of heaven and earth, disappearing before billions of people.

The many Half-Saints on the Holy Land, after Li Hao disappeared, still maintained a humble and respectful demeanor, not daring to look up. Only after a long time did they slowly raise their heads and look at the place where Li Hao had stood.

After confirming that Li Hao had really completely disappeared, their gazes then fell on the giant sword peak in the distance.

At this moment, they could all see that the giant sword peak had been transformed by laws, the rocks and sand were all integrated, and the trees on it had been shaved off, like a naturally cast divine sword.

And outside the Holy Formation, countless people were still shouting Li Hao's name, constantly kowtowing.

On the other side, after Li Hao killed the Ancient Demon, he followed the scent of the Ancient Demons along the way, seeing the destroyed divine dynasties, and corpses everywhere along the way.

Li Hao didn't waste it, gathering and absorbing the extreme Dao power remaining beside the corpses.

After absorbing all the extreme Dao power from the Ancient Demon's slaughter, Li Hao left this place and turned to rush to the next minor world.

On the way, Li Hao felt that the incense power surging towards him in the void was even thicker than before.
