Chapter 448: Nine Resonances of the Heart-Questioning Tower, Stirring Up a Storm

"Miss, please look elsewhere."

Cui Yuesheng of the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion said.

The beautiful woman with divine charm narrowed her almond eyes slightly, containing a hint of anger, and said, "Being from the Heavenly Unity Sect, are you actually this cowardly?!"

Cui Yuesheng frowned slightly, and coldly snorted, "Miss, don't speak nonsense. You are of the Clan of Calamity. Although you have heaven-defying talent, you do not have the blessing of a chosen one. I am also considering the millions of disciples of our sect."

"Hmph, the fortune of a great sect is not enough to offset the calamity on my body."

The beautiful woman with divine charm sneered, a disdainful contempt in her eyes.

Cui Yuesheng's face turned cold, and he said, "If you continue to speak nonsense, calamity will descend immediately!"

Feeling the imposing aura emanating from him, the beautiful woman with divine charm clenched her slender fingers slightly, unwilling to back down. She cultivated the sword path and had already inquired. Among the many forces that came here, only the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion was most suitable for her, and she also wanted to learn the Emperor Sword Art of the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion.

If she retreated now, she would have no chance again.

As her almond eyes flickered with uncertainty, a figure drifted over, accompanied by a strong smell of alcohol.

"Miss, if this place won't keep you, there will be places that will. Why be so persistent?"

The old man with a wine-soaked nose said with a chuckle, standing beside the woman.

The beautiful woman with divine charm slightly turned her eyes, and sensing the contained power within the old man with the wine-soaked nose, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she said, "Which sect are you from, that you are willing to accept me?"

The old man with the wine-soaked nose thought to himself that this little girl really didn't know how to talk. Announcing his sect in front of the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion, wasn't this asking for unnecessary trouble? He chuckled and said, "Let's talk on the other side."

Cui Yuesheng narrowed his eyes slightly, but recognized the identity of the old man with the wine-soaked nose. His eyebrows rose, and he said indifferently, "Nine Abyss Dreamscape has quite the guts. Are you planning on going all in?"

The old man with the wine-soaked nose's expression changed slightly. Seeing that he had been recognized, there was no need to hide it anymore. He said with a faint smile, "Young man, watch your words. Ten thousand years ago, Nine Abyss Dreamscape was the Heavenly Unity Sect. At that time, the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion had not even been built."

"And what about now?"

Cui Yuesheng retorted with a cold laugh.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose was slightly choked. A hint of coldness surfaced in his eyes, and at the same time, the wine gourd behind him seemed to slightly heat up and turn red. The temperature of the surrounding天地 (heaven and earth/world) was also slowly rising.

Cui Yuesheng felt the vague power emanating from the other party, like a hidden dragon emerging from the abyss, causing a warning bell to ring in his heart, and his gaze deepened involuntarily.

"Senior, if you are willing to take me in, I will definitely not let you down."

At this time, the beautiful woman with divine charm beside them spoke, looking directly at the old man with the wine-soaked nose, her expression particularly serious.

Upon hearing this, the aura that the old man with the wine-soaked nose had gathered slowly dissipated. He put on a sage-like demeanor, gently stroking his beard and smiling faintly, "Someone the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion dares not accept, my Nine Abyss Dreamscape dares. The sword arts that the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion does not have, my Nine Abyss Dreamscape has. Little girl, coming to Nine Abyss Dreamscape is your correct choice."

His clothes were ragged like a beggar's, which, combined with his current demeanor, made him look somewhat comical.

However, the beautiful woman with divine charm's eyes showed no contempt or ridicule. Instead, she nodded seriously, "Yuexi of the Clan of Calamity, is willing to take you as my master, Senior!"

"Haha, no rush, no rush. We'll have a formal master-apprenticeship ceremony when we return to the sect."

The old man with the wine-soaked nose laughed heartily.

Being able to take in a monstrous genius with eight resonances of the Heart-Questioning Tower, even though she was from the Clan of Calamity, her talent was undoubtedly unquestionable.

Cui Yuesheng saw this scene, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and without saying anything more, he flicked his sleeves and turned back to the giant sword.

"How should I address you, Senior? And what are the sect's requirements for accepting disciples?"

Yuexi asked. She had only displayed eight resonances of the Heart-Questioning Tower and the power of her Eternal Dao Heart. At the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion, she had originally intended to display her sword skills, but the other party had directly rejected her.

"This Dao Heart of yours is enough. I believe your talent won't be lacking."

The old man with the wine-soaked nose said.

Seeing him say this, Yuexi didn't press further. In her heart, she also felt that her sword skills would definitely not be inferior to the many geniuses who came to the plaza to seek apprenticeship. She had only glanced at the sword intent left by the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion a few times and had already gained some understanding. If she seriously comprehended it, she believed she could master it within three days.

"Then when will we return to the sect?"

Yuexi asked.

"No hurry, there's still a little fellow, let's wait for him."

The old man with the wine-soaked nose said with a smile, "I wonder if that little fellow can meet the requirements."

He muttered to himself, previously saying six resonances of the Heart-Questioning Tower was just to show off the strength of Nine Abyss Dreamscape in front of that young man. If the other party really didn't reach it, even five resonances would be qualified enough, and even if it was four resonances... he could test his sword path aptitude later. If he passed, it might not be impossible to take him in.

After all, the current Nine Abyss Dreamscape was no longer what it was ten thousand years ago...

"Hmm?"

Yuexi's eyes flickered slightly upon hearing the old man with the wine-soaked nose's words, but quickly returned to calm.

Just then, suddenly a ringing sound emanated from the sixth floor of the Heart-Questioning Tower.

The two of them looked over at the same time, and saw the sixth floor of the Heart-Questioning Tower slightly tremble.

When reaching the fifth floor of the Heart-Questioning Tower, if the Dao Heart was激荡 (stirred/agitated), people outside would already sense it. When reaching the sixth floor, the sensation would be even more obvious.

Earlier, Yuexi's eight resonances had been heard by many people outside.

"Six resonances of the Heart-Questioning Tower?"

"It seems another monstrous genius has been born."

"This is already a mid-grade Chaos Dao Heart, enough for him to reach the peak of the Immortal Lord Realm!"

"If it's seven resonances, then the Dao Heart is enough to become an invincible powerhouse in the Immortal Lord Realm, able to roam freely across the four domains of the True World!"

On the plaza, many people noticed, their eyes fixed and voices hushed.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose turned his head to look at the small earth mound, but saw that the young man sitting and fishing there had disappeared. His eyes flickered slightly. Could it be that the kid really had six resonances?

...

When the old man with the wine-soaked nose arrived at the side of the beautiful woman with divine charm, Li Hao had also reeled in his line and stood up. He brushed off the dry grass clinging to his backside, and flew towards the Heart-Questioning Tower.

Beside him, the lame old man continued to fish quietly, without reacting to his departure.

Many people around were rushing to the Heart-Questioning Tower. Li Hao followed them in together, and along the way, he heard other Saint-level beings asking their elders how to test in this Heart-Questioning Tower. He also eavesdropped on the method.

As soon as he entered the tower, darkness enveloped him, seeming to wrap him in a separate world.

All surrounding aura and sound disappeared.

This Heart-Questioning Tower now only had ten floors. It was said that the top of the tower was destroyed, and it was already incomplete. Originally, it could observe the Heavenly Dao Emperor Heart.

To test the Dao Heart, one needed to climb step by step.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose had said six resonances, mid-grade Chaos Dao Heart. Li Hao planned to go to the sixth floor of the Heart-Questioning Tower and stop there.

But as his thoughts drifted, the darkness in front of him was suddenly pushed open by an aura of majestic emperor power. Immediately afterwards, clouds and mist surged in the sky, violently fluctuating like boiling water. Then, a giant palm emerged from the clouds and mist, pushing outwards.

The palm prints of that giant palm were clearly visible, like an ancient god, pressing down from the sky.

An immense, invincible aura accompanied it. The entire world shook violently. Below the giant palm was a giant city standing on the edge of an abyss.

In the center of that giant city was a towering pagoda, like an iron nail hammered into the earth.

The giant palm slammed down towards the pagoda, and also towards Li Hao. Boundless, majestic power descended, causing people to feel submission, fear, and Dao Heart trembling. Their primordial spirit even felt like it was about to collapse and flee.

Li Hao slightly held his breath, feeling as if all the strength in his body was imprisoned within his body. Only his own conviction allowed him to stand tall in front of this giant palm.

Kneeling, fleeing, begging for mercy, screaming...

Many thoughts flashed quickly through his mind, but were all severed by a clear sword qi.

In his mind, the hand placing a Go stone appeared, the laughter of swinging a fishing rod, the scrolls of painting with ink brush...

The fear and anxiety in his heart quietly receded, and his expression gradually calmed down. At this moment, he seemed to be standing on the top of that pagoda, quietly gazing at the giant palm descending, covering the entire giant city.

Heavenly Dao collapsing... what's it to me?

The boundless power swept past, brushed through his pupils, and then everything dissipated like smoke, like a dream.

Darkness returned before his eyes.

But in Li Hao's mind, one after another buzzing sound emerged.

Five resonances, six resonances, seven resonances...

The entire Heart-Questioning Tower seemed to be trembling, crazily ringing for him!

Buzz!

Outside, after the six resonances ended, it was the seventh resonance!

Previously, only a few people had noticed the six resonances, but the commotion of the seventh resonance was even greater. Many people noticed it and looked towards the Heart-Questioning Tower.

Immediately afterwards, the eighth resonance!

With this eighth resonance, the entire tower body seemed to be gently trembling. Most people on the plaza noticed it, stopped talking and conversing, and looked towards the towering Heart-Questioning Tower in the clouds.

But it didn't end there. Immediately after, the ninth resonance!!

At this moment, the entire Heart-Questioning Tower seemed to be shaking violently. The bottom of the tower was connected to the plaza. With the tower as the center, the entire plaza seemed to be pulled, trembled, and swayed!

In an instant, everyone on the plaza noticed it, and looked at the ancient Heart-Questioning Tower in shock.

Nine resonances, coming from the top of the tower in the clouds, in a location obscured by clouds and mist, unable to be seen.

In mid-air, on the giant sword of the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion, surprise appeared in the eyes of Cui Yuesheng and the others, and they looked at the Heart-Questioning Tower in shock.

Nine resonances of the Dao Heart. Such a Dao Heart was enough to reach the peak of the Immortal King Realm!

In other words, before cultivating to the peak of the Immortal King Realm, there was no need to worry about one's character. Anything involving character and state of mind could be easily broken through!

The old man with the wine-soaked nose was stunned, his eyes slightly widened, and a trembling excitement surfaced in his heart. Could it be that kid?!

Beside him, a dazed look also appeared on Yuexi's beautiful face. She believed her own Dao Heart to be invincible, and difficult to surpass in the same realm. But now, there was actually someone even better than her.

For a moment, a hint of curiosity appeared in her eyes, and she stared at the clouds, with a hint of strong fighting spirit.

And at the edge of the plaza, on a small earth mound unnoticed by anyone.

The lame old man who was fishing in the clouds raised the corners of his mouth into a faint smile on his face that had always been calm and unperturbed.

He raised the tobacco pipe in his hand, took a gentle puff, and along with the exhaled cloud of smoke, he tapped the tobacco pipe gently in the void. Invisibility vibrations vaguely spread out.

"Feathers not yet fully grown, it's still better not to be too dazzling. Dragon-雀 Dragon-雀 (Dragon-Sparrow)... I will temporarily collect this Heavenly Dragon aura for you."

As he murmured softly to himself, the trembling Heart-Questioning Tower slowly calmed down.

At this time, the people on the plaza also gradually recovered, shock in their eyes.

Nine resonances of the Heart-Questioning Tower. This was considered a top-tier monstrous genius even in the Heavenly Unity Sect.

In terms of Dao Heart alone, he was definitely a rare genius in the world.

"Which clan's monstrous genius is this? Could it be a Chaos Great Clan?"

"It's possible he's a descendant of an Emperor Clan!"

"Heavens, nine resonances of the Heart-Questioning Tower. As long as talent is sufficient, he can cultivate to the peak of the Immortal King Realm. Now that Emperor Lords are in seclusion, Immortal King Realm peak is already invincible in the world!"

The plaza erupted in a clamor, countless people were shocked and discussing, gazing intently at the clouds above the Heart-Questioning Tower.

Feng Boping, Sword Master, and others who had just become apprentices and had not yet left the plaza, also stayed here, their eyes filled with astonishment, a faint figure vaguely emerging in their minds.

And the five Immortal Guards who stayed here, Lin Sheng, Hua Sheng, and others, exchanged glances with each other, and knew who had caused such a huge commotion. In their eyes, besides joy, there was also a hint of complexity.

Even in the True World, that young man's brilliance was hard to conceal.

At this time, a figure descended from the clouds, it was Li Hao.

After the nine resonances of the Heart-Questioning Tower ended, Li Hao waited for a moment before the surrounding darkness receded. Before his eyes was a vast expanse of clouds and mist, and he was already in a location close to the top of the tower.

He looked back and saw a gap where the top of the tower was broken. He thought of the giant palm. Could it be that palm that destroyed it?

Without much thought, he descended through the clouds and mist.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh~~!

Many figures gathered towards Li Hao like shooting stars.

As soon as Li Hao descended, the old man with the wine-soaked nose rushed over.

At the same time, Cui Yuesheng and the others from the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion also hurried over.

In the more distant places, other sects recruiting disciples also rushed over one after another.

In the blink of an eye, Li Hao was surrounded by people from various sects.

When they saw that Li Hao's appearance was so young, the sects were all surprised and revealed joy.

However, in the face of nine resonances of the Heart-Questioning Tower, the standard of soul age, even if it was exceeded, could be ignored.

"It really is you!"

When the old man with the wine-soaked nose saw Li Hao, he was immediately overjoyed, shock in his eyes. This kid who tricked him out of wine money was too much beyond his imagination.

Although he had long seen that Li Hao's talent was extraordinary, he had not expected him to reach such a realm.

"Young man, you are a sword cultivator, right? I am Cui Yuesheng of the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion."

Cui Yuesheng said quickly.

When arriving at Heart-Questioning Floating City, Li Hao had already activated his Myriad Forms Attribute to conceal himself. Cui Yuesheng, as an Immortal Lord, could not perceive Li Hao's specific cultivation level, but through Li Hao's temperament, he could feel that he was a sword cultivator.

Hearing Cui Yuesheng's words, the other sects secretly exclaimed in their hearts.

If he was a sword cultivator, there were really not many sects present that could compete with the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion.

"Yes."

Li Hao frankly admitted. His main cultivation path was the sword, followed by the fist.

"Come to my Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion, I guarantee you will enter as an inner disciple. In the sect competitions, with your talent, you will definitely be able to obtain a sword imprint and go to Emperor Sword Mountain to cultivate. My Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion has an Emperor Sword Style. If you can comprehend it, it will be enough to help you reach the apex of the True World in the future!"

Cui Yuesheng said quickly, appearing extremely delighted.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose secretly cried out that things were bad, and immediately said, "Kid, you promised me earlier. Originally, six resonances was enough to enter my Nine Abyss Dreamscape. Now that you have nine resonances, other tests are waived. My Nine Abyss Dreamscape also has Emperor Sword Styles. If you are interested in other things, my Nine Abyss Dreamscape also has body techniques, formations, and many other top-tier cultivation methods."

Cui Yuesheng's expression changed slightly upon hearing his words, and he immediately said:

"Young man, don't listen to his nonsense. Nine Abyss Dreamscape has long since declined, and is now just a Heaven Fourth-Rank sect."

The old man with the wine-soaked nose's expression changed, and his whole body suddenly erupted with power, glaring angrily at Cui Yuesheng, saying:

"So what if it's a Heaven Fourth-Rank sect? Do you want to compete with me?"

Cui Yuesheng felt the power he was emitting, which was actually Immortal Lord Realm peak, and his expression couldn't help but change. He was only in the Immortal Lord Realm sixth level, and if they really fought, he would inevitably be defeated.

"Are you sure you want to compete with my Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion?"

He could only use coercion. Although he was no match for him, the number of experts in the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion definitely surpassed the current Nine Abyss Dreamscape.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose sneered, and said, "Just tell me, do you dare to spar with me in front of this young friend?"

Seeing them at daggers drawn, the other sects secretly clicked their tongues. Many sects had already retreated, knowing they could not compete.

Cui Yuesheng's face was gloomy, and he said, "With such a monstrous genius, what resources do you have to cultivate him? My Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion has nine Sword Pavilions. Sword path cultivation methods are among the best in the Southern Domain, and it is also a sacred ground for sword cultivators. Your Nine Abyss Dreamscape's learning is complex and disorganized, don't delay talent."

"Stop talking nonsense. When my Nine Abyss Dreamscape was the Heavenly Unity Sect, you hadn't even built your pavilions yet!"

The old man with the wine-soaked nose was also going all in. Although this would offend the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion, and they would inevitably be restrained in all aspects in the future, he had no choice but to gamble for such a genius. The current Nine Abyss Dreamscape was too lacking in geniuses.

"Hmph, what's the point of always mentioning the past? In the current world, you are just a Heaven Fourth-Rank sect."

Cui Yuesheng sneered.

Li Hao was speechless when he heard them arguing, and also did not expect that this old man with the wine-soaked nose had been deceiving him earlier. However, what the other party said about Nine Abyss Dreamscape being the Heavenly Unity Sect ten thousand years ago did not seem to be a deception, after all, he was talking about ten thousand years ago, not now...

This guy... Li Hao felt a bit helpless in his heart. First, he freeloaded, and now he was full of vague words and avoided the main point. In his heart, he really wasn't reliable.

However, the other party was a force created by the descendants of the Emperor lineage of Heavenly Calamity Immortal Emperor, which had some connection to him.

"You two don't need to argue anymore."

Li Hao spoke, he had made up his mind, and was not willing for Nine Abyss Dreamscape to offend the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion too much. He said to Cui Yuesheng:

"I promised this senior earlier, a gentleman keeps his word. I hope Senior doesn't take offense."

Cui Yuesheng's expression changed.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose was stunned, but then laughed heartily, but a burst of surprise rippled through his heart.

What a 'gentleman keeps his word,' but you kid let me pay the bill earlier... you're not much of a gentleman!

He didn't believe Li Hao's words, and couldn't help but feel puzzled. His previous words were exposed by Cui Yuesheng, and he was somewhat embarrassed by his shame and anger, but Li Hao actually didn't mind.

Heavenly Unity Sect and Heaven Fourth-Rank Sect... overall, the gap was quite large.

"Young man, don't delay your future because of a moment of impulse. This Nine Abyss Dreamscape has long since lost its former glory, don't listen to his boasting."

Cui Yuesheng stared at Li Hao and advised.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose angrily said, "The foundation of my Nine Abyss Dreamscape, how could you possibly imagine it?"

Li Hao cupped his hands towards Cui Yuesheng and said, "Thank you, Senior, I have made up my mind."

Seeing Li Hao being so decisive, Cui Yuesheng's expression flickered, and finally glared at the old man with the wine-soaked nose hatefully, and turned to leave.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose's face was full of smiles, and he became somewhat beaming. After everyone else had dispersed, he said to Li Hao:

"Kid, good eyesight! But I didn't say anything wrong just now, the foundation of my Nine Abyss Dreamscape is beyond their imagination!"

Li Hao shook his head and smiled. This old man had no credibility left in his heart. He was too lazy to delve deeper. Anyway, for him, the impact of the sect gap on cultivation was not significant.

Beside them, Yuexi stared at Li Hao. She had not spoken from beginning to end. Cui Yuesheng desperately fought for Li Hao, and argued with the old man with the wine-soaked nose until their faces turned red, but she only felt a trace of coldness in her heart. Although she had eight resonances, the gap with nine resonances was not large, but she took the initiative to offer herself, but was rejected by the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion.

She became even more determined in her heart to make the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion regret it bitterly in the future.

"Let's go, let's return to the sect."

The old man with the wine-soaked nose was elated and extremely happy. Coming out this time, he actually took in two monstrous geniuses at once. Although one was from the Clan of Calamity, the current Nine Abyss Dreamscape was not afraid of any calamity, and besides, he had a way to suppress the influence of the other party's physique.

Li Hao quickly said, "Wait a moment, I still have friends here."

The old man with the wine-soaked nose slapped his forehead, and then remembered the promise he had made to Li Hao. He smiled and said:

"Alright, I'll wait for you."

With Li Hao's Dao Heart aptitude, even if Li Hao brought a few more friends over, he wouldn't mind. At most, they would just be a few more outer sect disciples. Anyway, in the sect, one still had to rely on their own ability to obtain cultivation resources.

Li Hao temporarily separated from him, and then went to the plaza to find Lin Sheng and others.

"Congratulations, Lord."

When Lin Sheng and others saw Li Hao descending, attracting countless gazes to gather, smiles appeared on their faces, and they congratulated Li Hao one after another.

Li Hao smiled and said, "Although you are my Immortal Guards, I will not restrict you. You can look for other sects, and if there are suitable ones, you can go and cultivate there, which can also add a foundation for us, or you can continue to follow me."

The five people exchanged glances. Hua Sheng and You Sheng said, "We also thought of this earlier. With your strength, we can't protect you either. Perhaps you will have to protect us instead. It's better for us to go to other forces, gather strength, and prepare for the future."

Li Hao nodded.

Now that he had obtained the Immortal Emperor inheritance and become a formal disciple, if he became a direct disciple and inherited the Immortal Emperor's cause in the future, he would naturally want to restore the Immortal Emperor's prestige.

At that time, there would inevitably be waves, so it was necessary to plan for the future in advance and gather strength and foundation.

"If that's the case, then we will also go to other sects."

Chen Baoyu and Dong Dao said.

Lin Sheng looked at Li Hao, and said, "I just inquired. Nine Abyss Dreamscape has a Spear Abyss lineage, I can also go and cultivate there."

Earlier, the old man with the wine-soaked nose argued with Cui Yuesheng and others for Li Hao, and the sound spread out. Most people on the plaza could hear it, after all, most of them were Saint-level, and their divine sense was enough to cover the plaza.

Li Hao nodded and didn't refuse.

"I have Supreme Immortal Techniques here, one for each of you. You need to study hard, master them well, and you can also be top-tier among True Immortals in the same realm."

Li Hao said.

He had collected six Supreme Immortal Techniques in the Heavenly Calamity Emperor Palace. The Emperor Palace did not explicitly prohibit him from teaching them to others. After all, those ten Supreme Immortal Techniques were not unique to Heavenly Calamity Immortal Emperor, but were Supreme Immortal Techniques widely circulated in the True World, and other major sects also collected them.

Hearing Li Hao's words, the five people exchanged glances, all delighted.

Li Hao transmitted his divine sense, and according to the Saint Path they cultivated, he taught them separately.

If the cultivation method was not suitable, he would teach the "Forbidden Purple" and "Myriad Shadows" Immortal Techniques. These two were ones that anyone could cultivate, but they needed to master the corresponding source Grand Dao.

Supreme Immortal Technique, mastering one, was enough to roam freely in the True Immortal Realm.

Among them, there was the Spear Path Immortal Technique "Thunder Roar," which required mastering the Thunder Grand Dao. The Thunder Grand Dao was a more difficult Grand Dao to master other than the Nine Sequences, but its attack and destruction were extremely strong.

Lin Sheng's original name was Lin Yufeng. He received the Thunder Roar Immortal Technique, and felt only shock in his heart. He could feel the horror of this Immortal Technique.

After separately teaching them, Li Hao took Lin Yufeng back and introduced him to the old man with the wine-soaked nose.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose glanced at Lin Yufeng, and casually asked, "How many resonances of the Dao Heart?"

"Four resonances."

Lin Yufeng felt a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, the old man with the wine-soaked nose didn't ask further. After all, he had come in through Li Hao's backdoor, and he was too lazy to delve deeper. He said to Li Hao, "Can we go back now?"

"Wait a little longer."

Li Hao looked at Lin Qing'er, who was still in closed-eye comprehension.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose helplessly said, "How long?"

"I don't know, but it won't be long."

The old man with the wine-soaked nose slightly rolled his eyes. However, this young man was now a hot commodity, and before bringing him back to the sect, he could not chase him away. Cui Yuesheng next door had been eyeing him all along, so he had no choice but to go along with Li Hao.

Li Hao asked Lin Yufeng to follow the old man with the wine-soaked nose, while he himself returned to the small earth mound.

When they separated earlier, the Ten Great Immortal Techniques he had mastered, when coming to the True World, he had already secretly taught to Old Feng and Sword Master and others.

Two techniques each, Li Hao didn't teach too many, because these Supreme Immortal Techniques were obscure and difficult to understand, and they didn't master the Space Grand Dao like him, so cultivation would be particularly difficult. Being able to delve into and constantly refine just one of them would be enough to achieve extremely high accomplishments.

"Nine Abyss Dreamscape, not far from here."

Just as Li Hao sat down to fish, the lame old man spoke calmly, "If you have time, you can come and sit here often."

Li Hao was surprised, and nodded, "That's good. Before I catch a Dragon-雀 (Dragon-Sparrow), I will come often."

The lame old man's mouth slightly curled up when he heard this, as if he smiled slightly, but that smile had an unclear meaning. His expression returned to indifferent, he took a puff of his big pipe, and the smoke diffused across his face, making his expression unclear:

"When they are all gone, this place will be quiet, unlike now, so noisy."

"Sometimes it's good to be lively."

Li Hao said.

"You are still young, I am old, I don't like noise."

The lame old man shook the wine gourd in his hand, and said, "Do you like wine?"

"I like drinking companions."

"Haha..."

The lame old man laughed heartily, and then threw the wine gourd to Li Hao, "Then I'll give it to you."

Li Hao was surprised. In the past few days of interaction, this old man gave him the feeling of being neither warm nor cold, and not easy to get close to.

However, he was not polite and took the wine gourd and shook it, saying, "It doesn't seem like there's much left."

"..."

The lame old man fell silent again.

Several days later.

Lin Qing'er opened her eyes. The insights in her heart allowed her, at the moment of opening her eyes, to focus her mind on that sword, raise her hand and slash out.

She used her finger as a sword, and slashed out a faint wave mark in the void.

On the giant sword, Cui Yuesheng's eyes swept over, his gaze narrowed. That sword mark not only represented that this little girl had mastered the Myriad Mountains Starting Style, but also seemed to contain a hint of chaotic and ethereal sword intent fluctuation.

Although it was extremely subtle, he had held a sword for many years, and should not have seen it wrong.

Could it be... his eyes flickered, and a hint of unexpected joy surfaced in his heart.

Although he had lost that nine-resonance monstrous genius, this little girl seemed to be able to compensate somewhat.

"Not bad, you have passed the qualification."

A woman flew over. On her ice-cold face, a smile like melting ice and snow appeared for Lin Qing'er.

Lin Qing'er came back to her senses, and couldn't help but feel relieved. Immediately, she turned her head and looked around.

At this time, Li Hao, who had been fishing on the small earth mound, had already reeled in his line and rushed over when she woke up.

"Haotian."

Joy appeared in Lin Qing'er's eyes.

When Cui Yuesheng saw the intimate appearance of the two, his heart couldn't help but thump.

Li Hao smiled and said, "Do you want to become an apprentice at the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion, or come with me?"

"Come with you."

Lin Qing'er was stunned for a moment. Although surprised, she still said without hesitation.

Cui Yuesheng's face immediately darkened, he coughed lightly, and said in a deep voice to Li Hao, "Young man, you have become an apprentice of Nine Abyss Dreamscape, although I don't know why, but you must have inquired about some news these days, right? The resources of my Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion in nurturing disciples are far from what Nine Abyss Dreamscape can compare to!"

Li Hao heard this, but remained noncommittal. It was precisely because of this that he asked Lin Qing'er.

"Do you have another sect?" Lin Qing'er asked at this time.

Li Hao nodded and immediately said, "But as he said, if you become an apprentice and cultivate here, it might be better for you."

If she followed him to Nine Abyss Dreamscape, although he could take care of her, he could at most pass on the Supreme Immortal Technique, and could not help Lin Qing'er with anything else.

Lin Qing'er understood, and she shook her head, "Wherever you go, I will go."

Cui Yuesheng's expression changed slightly upon hearing this. He immediately saw the relationship between the two, and said in a low voice:

"Little girl, the sect he apprenticed to is a Heaven Fourth-Rank sect, my Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion is a Heaven First-Rank sect. The gap is huge. I see you have affinity. If you come to become an apprentice, I can apply for a sword imprint for you and let you go directly to Emperor Sword Mountain to cultivate!"

"The years of cultivation are long, rather than following in someone else's footsteps, it's better to catch up with others, don't you think?"

Hearing his gentle persuasion, Lin Qing'er's heart stirred slightly.

But she did not change her mind, but stared at Li Hao, and said, "What do you think?"

Li Hao thought for a moment. He saw that Cui Yuesheng seemed to care quite a bit about Lin Qing'er, and after thinking about it, he said, "Considering your own benefit, it is more suitable for you to go to the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion."

"Then what about considering you?"

Lin Qing'er suddenly asked.

Li Hao was slightly stunned. Seeing the burning gaze in the other party's eyes, he was slightly silent, and said, "Come to Nine Abyss Dreamscape."

Upon getting this answer, a smile slowly appeared on Lin Qing'er's face, blooming bit by bit from the corner of her raised lips, until her whole face became radiant.

She whispered in a voice transmission, "Then I will go to the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion. With your talent, going to that Nine Abyss Dreamscape, you will definitely be able to reach the peak. I will go to the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion. If I can comprehend any unique skills, I will secretly pass them on to you."

She said gently, her eyes full of tenderness.

Li Hao was silent, not daring to respond.

"Little girl..."

Cui Yuesheng saw the two exchanging loving glances, afraid that this little girl would be impulsive, and wanted to persuade her.

But Lin Qing'er turned her head and said, "I will join the Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion."

Cui Yuesheng was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled, "Good, Myriad Mountains Sword Pavilion will definitely nurture you well!"

Li Hao nodded slightly when he saw her make a choice, and stared at her, saying, "Then take care."

Saying that, he took out one of the three willow leaves left by Old Wang, and handed it to her.

Lin Qing'er looked at the willow leaf in confusion, sensing that it was some kind of divine treasure.

"It can save your life in a crisis." Li Hao transmitted his voice.

Cui Yuesheng saw the willow leaf, his gaze deepened, sensing an extremely strong aura from it. He looked at this young man, his gaze becoming solemn. With such a treasure, this young man must have an extraordinary background.

However, for the other party to have nine resonances of the Dao Heart, perhaps he really came from some Emperor Clan.

Li Hao said goodbye to Lin Qing'er. The old man with the wine-soaked nose found Li Hao, afraid that Li Hao would be fooled by Cui Yuesheng, and was eager to take him back to the sect.

Li Hao didn't linger any longer, found Old Feng, who had become an apprentice of a Heaven Fourth-Rank sect and had not yet left, and handed him the second willow leaf.

Afterwards, Li Hao found the lame old man on the small earth mound and said goodbye to him.

"Let's go, let's go."

The old man with the wine-soaked nose urged, not daring to stay, afraid that the two monstrous genius disciples he had just taken in would be seduced away by other forces.

Although he still wanted to continue to see if there were any other monstrous geniuses, he was already extremely satisfied to be able to take in Li Hao and Yuexi.

Lin Yufeng followed behind Li Hao. Although they had both become apprentices of Nine Abyss Dreamscape, and were now both disciples of a Heaven Sect, he still maintained the respect of an Immortal Guard.

Yuexi looked at Li Hao. The other party's Dao Heart was higher than hers, meaning his Dao Mind was stronger and his aspirations were greater. On the way out with the old man with the wine-soaked nose, she asked:

"What realm are you in? Do you have a chance to spar in sword path?"

Li Hao was somewhat lost in thought, his mind still pondering over Lin Qing'er and Old Feng and others. Hearing the words of the woman beside him, he came back to his senses, and shook his head, saying:

"There's nothing to spar about."

"Hmm?"

A hint of light appeared in Yuexi's eyes, and said, "Do you look down on me?"

Li Hao saw a hint of disapproval and coldness in her eyes, was stunned for a moment, and was somewhat speechless, shaking his head and saying:

"I just think it's a bit tedious and boring. If you want to practice swords, the other senior brothers and sisters there should be enough to accompany you."

"Tedious and boring?"

Yuexi was incredulous when she heard Li Hao's words.

Being a sword cultivator, he actually said that sword path sparring was tedious and boring?

It was well known that most sword cultivators, as well as saber cultivators, were enthusiastic about sparring, as this could improve faster. Even meeting a worthy opponent, they would have a drink and rejoice. It was a fortunate event.

The old man with the wine-soaked nose was sitting on the wine gourd in front. Hearing these words, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Li Hao suspiciously. He hadn't tested Li Hao's sword path aptitude before. Hearing these words, how did he suddenly feel that he was a bit unreliable?
