Chapter 616: Huangquan Houtu, the Original Realm (Two in One)
"Where did he go?"
Su Muqing was stunned, and suddenly thought of the strange expressions of Su Wanqing and her sister Su Wanxue. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat and she felt a strong sense of uneasiness.
Su Wanqing couldn't help but feel a little ironic when she saw that she had just noticed the young man at this moment. She felt a stinging pain in her heart as if she was pricked by a needle. He had been with her for so long, but in her sister's heart, he still had no place at all?
But...it doesn't matter. My sister doesn't care about him anyway. It's better for him to leave so that he won't suffer here. In each other's eyes, there is no each other. It's just a misunderstanding.
Just like the Xianyun purple osmanthus he gave her as a gift, he just picked it casually without any other meaning.
But...why do I feel sad in my heart?
Su Wanqing turned her head away, said nothing, and did not answer Su Muqing.
Seeing that Su Muqing finally noticed that the young man had disappeared, Su Wanxue couldn't help but sigh and said, "He's gone."
"Gone?"
Su Muqing's body trembled slightly, and she suddenly had a strong bad premonition, and asked hurriedly: "Where did you go, the ancestral land?"
Su Wanxue shook her head slightly. Li Hao left with the spirit girl, and her father Su Zhenyuan followed. Although she and her sister Su Wanqing stayed to look after Su Muqing, they also reflected their incarnations and chased to the Minghuang Palace, where they waited for their father and learned from him where Li Hao had gone.
The other party has already left the Su family.
No one knows where it went, as the ancestor personally sent it away.
Su Wanxue and Su Wanqing both witnessed the reunion of Li Hao and the soul girl, and they knew in their hearts that the young man's purpose of coming to the Su family had been achieved, so there was no reason for him to stay in the Su family any longer.
After all, with the talent of that young man, he must have a great future. The Su family is a top family in the Northern Territory, but in front of such a genius, they can't keep anyone.
"It's not the ancestral land? Then where is it?"
Su Muqing was a little stunned, and suddenly felt empty in her heart, as if something extremely precious was lost.
"have no idea."
Su Wanxue shook her head and sighed, "Even my father didn't know where he went. The ancestor sent him away personally."
"Send away? Why?"
Su Muqing was puzzled and asked, "Could it be that he made a mistake in the ancestral land and offended the ancestor, so he was punished by the ancestor? But he had previously killed the demon and saved the Northern Territory..."
"Of course not!"
Su Wanqing, who was silent, couldn't help but interrupt her. She looked up at the elder sister who had been with her since childhood with a very unfamiliar look:
"Why do you think he would make a mistake and provoke the First Ancestor? You don't know how much the First Ancestor likes him! Apart from him, including us and you, who else has been summoned by the First Ancestor and who has paid homage to the First Ancestor? He has been to the ancestral land four or five times."
"And I heard from Fourth Grandfather that the First Ancestor loves him very much and can enter the ancestral land without any notification. This is a right that even direct descendants like you and me do not have. Even my father needs to report to the emperor at the foot of the mountain before he can visit!"
The more she spoke, the more excited her voice became, and her eyes were moist with excitement.
Seeing her expression, Su Muqing was stunned, and suddenly she felt enlightened.
Yes, I am not qualified to meet the ancestor, and I have not been summoned by the ancestor.
But the young man was summoned to the ancestral land by the ancestor after he finished slaying the demon.
In the following few years, he left for the ancestral land several times. One time he was away for three years. Wu Ma said that he might have cultivated in the ancestral land and received guidance from the ancestor...
But, if he had not offended the ancestor, why would he have been sent away by the ancestor?
Su Muqing felt her heart growing heavier, as if something extremely depressing was about to surface at any time.
She looked at her excited sister and suddenly realized something was wrong. She couldn't help but ask, "Wanqing, do you like... him?"
After these words were spoken, Su Wanxue beside her sighed. This was something that anyone with a discerning eye could see, but only Su Muqing noticed it.
If Su Wanqing had been exposed yesterday, she would have blushed and dared not look directly at Su Muqing, but at this moment, she said, "Yes, I admire him!"
She spoke very forcefully, but her eyes were fixed on Su Muqing, and she said, "You said before that you would never fall in love with him. You ignored him and only had your Lin Zexuan in your eyes. If that's the case, then why can't I admire him?"
Su Muqing looked at her blankly, as if she didn't know this sister.
"But he only has eyes for you, only you!"
Su Wanqing clenched her fists and bit her lips, but soon, sadness reappeared in her eyes. She laughed at herself and said, "But you can't say that. In his eyes, there is no you at all. There has never been you. There is only her, only that person..."
When Li Hao and Shi Miao hugged each other, their gazes caught Su Wanqing's eyes, and she knew that it was an emotion that no one could influence or intervene.
Su Muqing's expression changed slightly, and she said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? You admire him, and I don't blame you. Why don't you tell me why the ancestor wanted to send him away? Was it his own will?"
"We don't know the reason either."
Su Wanxue held Su Wanqing back, not letting her say anything more. She shook her head and sighed, "But one thing is certain, he did it voluntarily. Otherwise, how could the First Ancestor be so fond of him and not want to keep him in the Su family?"
"impossible!"
Su Muqing said decisively: "He can't leave voluntarily. He, he waits here every day, he..."
After saying "he" twice in succession, her tone suddenly weakened.
The young man volunteered to wait here every day, but... the result of waiting every day was that he could only face the closed palace door and his own indifference.
He...can't hold on any longer?
Su Muqing suddenly felt uneasy and had an indescribable feeling.
Seeing that she was completely clueless, Su Wanxue showed some pity in her eyes and said, "Mu Qing, don't think too much. He's leaving now, isn't that what you wish for? Without him, you can be with Lin Zexuan, and no one will interfere with your engagement anymore."
In the past, Su Muqing would have felt happy to hear these words and agreed with them deeply, but at this moment, it felt like a heavy hammer hit her chest, and her face turned pale in an instant.
Her eyes were full of disbelief and a little anger.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Why would he leave voluntarily? He just waited a few more years. I, I..."
Her words suddenly got stuck in her throat and she couldn't utter them for a moment.
She had clearly thought it through, and when the retreat was over...if he asked his father to marry her, she would acquiesce.
But...why can't I wait?
We have waited for more than ten years, why not wait a little longer?
Even in front of the demon, he was willing to die for himself!
It was clearly for himself that he disregarded life and death, and crossed seven levels of realm to fight against the top demon genius!
Why, now you are leaving after just waiting a few more years?
She clenched her fists, her fingers tensed so tightly that her finger bones turned slightly white.
"I'm going to ask my father for clarification!"
She suddenly moved and was about to step out of the palace.
Su Wanqing stood aside numbly and did not stop him.
Su Wanxue hurriedly grabbed it, with a complicated look in her eyes, and said, "Don't go, it's useless."
She didn't want Su Muqing to know the truth and cause harm to her sister.
"No!"
Su Muqing suddenly burst out with immortal power and easily broke free from Su Wanxue's wrist. She looked at her with determination, then rushed out of the hall without looking back:
"No matter where he goes, at least I want to know the reason. I want to get to the bottom of it!"
As she spoke, her figure disappeared in an instant, leaving with a movement beyond imagination.
Su Wanqing didn't say anything, but followed him out of the palace and disappeared in a flash.
Su Wanxue immediately knew that Su Wanqing had followed him, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart. Why bother? The young man had only been in the Su family for less than twenty years, but he had left an indelible impression on him.
Judging from the situation, Su Muqing is obviously not the same Su Muqing as before.
She sighed in her heart, but when she thought of the young man's heroic figure, her eyes became complicated and silent.
In a blink of an eye, the three sisters arrived at the Minghuang Palace one after another.
"Father!"
Su Muqing rushed directly into the hall without waiting for the announcement.
The guard followed in and hurriedly knelt down to apologize to Su Zhenyuan above.
Su Zhenyuan waved his hand to let the guards retreat, and when he saw His Highness Su Muqing's angry expression, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Where's Haotian? Where did he go? Why did he leave?!"
Su Muqing questioned loudly.
"Mu Qing."
Su Qingmei next to her frowned slightly and gently stopped Su Muqing from being so insolent.
Su Wanqing and Su Wanxue, who followed later, bowed their heads and remained silent after entering the hall, like ghosts, while Su Wanxue bowed to Su Zhenyuan above her and politely whispered "Father" in a low voice.
Su Zhenyuan said with a gloomy face: "Haotian has his own things to do. Now he just returns to his own place. He is not from our Northern Territory in the first place!"
"I know he's not from the Northern Territory, I just want to know why he left!"
Su Muqing gritted her teeth.
Su Zhenyuan's gaze swept over Su Wanqing and Su Wanxue, and Su Wanxue shook her head slightly at her father.
Su Zhenyuan immediately understood that they did not tell Su Muqing the truth, but there were so many witnesses to this matter that there was no need to keep them silent, as they would find out sooner or later.
He said calmly: "Haotian came to the Northern Territory to look for someone. Now that he has found him, he will naturally leave."
He paused, looked at Su Muqing, and said, "It's good that he's gone. It's just what you want. What I said during the demon-slaying competition is null and void. You and Lin Zexuan don't have to worry about it. Your marriage will be held as scheduled, preferably before you enter the original world. It would be best if you can have children before that..."
"Who is he looking for?!"
Su Muqing suddenly interrupted him loudly, looking a little excited: "Didn't he come to the Northern Territory to find me?"
Su Zhenyuan was stunned. Seeing his daughter's loss of composure, he suddenly realized something and asked in surprise:
"Could it be that you have any thoughts about that boy?"
Su Muqing's face changed slightly when her father revealed her thoughts, but she didn't blush. She just gritted her teeth and said, "These are two different things!"
Su Zhenyuan stared at her for a moment before saying, "If you have any, I advise you to put it away. It's still early to brake. Lin Zexuan was born in the Northern Territory, and you and your childhood sweetheart are a good match."
Although he also preferred Li Hao in his heart, it was impossible for Li Hao to be his son-in-law. Putting Li Hao aside, Lin Zexuan was naturally the best choice.
Su Muqing gritted her teeth and said, "I said, these are two different things! Who is he looking for in the Northern Territory? Hasn't he always been in our Su family?"
Su Zhenyuan sighed and said, "Read it for yourself, and you will understand after you finish reading it."
He didn't say anything more. He just raised his hand and made a wave. Ripples spread out in the air like a scroll.
The scene that had happened previously in the Exiled Immortal Courtyard was reflected and presented again.
The soaring immortal power burst out from the palace, and then Shi Miao appeared and met Li Hao, and the two embraced each other...
The hall was extremely quiet, with only the excited yet restrained affectionate conversation between Li Hao and Shi Miao after their reunion.
Su Muqing looked up, her pupils shrinking slightly.
When she saw the two of them hugging each other and the boy's sincere and familiar eyes, her face suddenly lost all color and became extremely pale.
It turned out that the person he had been staring at for a long time was not himself...
But who is that girl?
After a moment, the light and shadow disappeared, but the atmosphere in the hall seemed frozen.
Su Muqing's face turned pale and blue, and she clenched her fist and asked, "Who is that person?"
"That's the person Haotian is looking for. He was reborn into the world through your body. He was once a powerful man."
Su Zhenyuan said without hiding anything.
Although the truth is as sharp as a knife, it must be known sooner or later. Moreover, for Su Muqing, if she cannot bear this, her Tao heart must be tempered more, otherwise it will be difficult for her to achieve great things in the future.
Su Muqing felt a sharp shock in his chest. Was that the person he was looking for? So that was the person he was looking for!
I am... just a shell?
Her heart trembled, and she suddenly felt a tingling sensation.
It turns out that I am just a stand-in?!
But even if I am just a shell, the one who has been with him for the past ten years has always been myself, myself!
She bit her lip tightly until the light and shadow disappeared. She found that the young man only had the girl's soul in his eyes. Even when he followed the other party away, he never even glanced at the palace below from beginning to end!
Not even a glance!
Su Muqing bit her lip and blood oozed out. The golden divine blood was sweet and seeped into her throat, but it brought out unspeakable sadness.
She suddenly thought of the scene in which she activated that hidden power before she fell asleep.
It turns out that the other party is the hidden power.
She bit her lip even deeper.
So it was I who took the initiative to release her!
At this moment, she suddenly had a feeling, a very strong feeling, that is, she wished she could turn back time!
However, even if she mastered the seventh level of the origin of time, it would be difficult to do so, because the part of time and space that she wanted to reverse included her father, Su Wanqing, Li Hao, and the soul girl.
Even if other situations go backwards and reverse, they will never be affected by their own time.
Moreover, she couldn't reverse the time and space where so many powerful people gathered.
The temple fell into silence, as if dead.
After a long while, Su Muqing finally said in a low voice: "Even if he wants to leave, at least... he should say goodbye to me."
"After all, we have been together for more than ten years, and he has been in my yard for more than ten years!"
Su Zhenyuan sighed lightly and said nothing.
Is there any meaning in saying goodbye? No.
The thing we hate most in life is separation.
"Saying goodbye to you? Sitting in the courtyard again, waiting for you to open the palace door?"
No one answered in front, but a voice came from behind Su Muqing, which was Su Wanqing's cold words.
Su Muqing felt as if her chest was stabbed by a sharp knife, and there was a stinging sensation. Her face changed several times, and she opened her mouth slightly as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she found that she couldn't say anything.
She suddenly thought that in the past ten years, she seemed to have never given that young man a good look.
But he always endured it silently and never got angry.
So, he could only endure it because he wanted to use me to get closer to that girl's soul?
She suddenly felt a little ridiculous for having thought that he was...
"Report!"
Suddenly, a voice came from outside the hall.
Su Zhenyuan looked up and called out, "Speak."
The messenger outside the hall came into the hall, knelt down and kowtowed, and said quickly: "Master, we have already found out what you told us before, the identity and origin of Haotian!"
"Um?"
As soon as these words were spoken, several people in the hall pricked up their ears. Su Qingmei also stared over. She was extremely curious about the young man. Which tribe among the hundreds of tribes in the Real Realm could cultivate such an extraordinary person?
Su Zhenyuan's eyes moved slightly. Li Hao's affairs were now confidential. After all, if he helped the Northern Territory, he would definitely be targeted by the demon. It was not appropriate to make it public and let more people know.
But those few people in the palace... I'm afraid that if I don't tell them now, they will pester me later.
Fortunately, they were his wife and daughter, so he naturally trusted them and said, "Just tell me."
"That Haotian is from the Southern Region. He emerged thirty years ago in the Great Dream Nine Abyss Sect, one of the seven ancient immortal dynasties in the Southern Region, the Yanchu Immortal Dynasty, one of the four great sects. Since then, he has quickly become famous, rising from Yanchu and becoming one of the top ten Yanchu Tianjiao. It is also rumored that he had a competition with the Yanchu royal family and defeated the royal family of the Immortal Monarch Realm with the True Immortal Realm!"
"Afterwards, he represented the Yanchu Immortal Dynasty's Tianjiao and participated in the Southern Region Battle to compete for a place in the Original Realm!"
"In the original world, he showed his extraordinary ability, breaking through the barriers one after another with ease, and defeating the top geniuses of various races, including the ancient gods and ghosts who were among the top ten in the world!"
"The battle in the Southern Region has not yet ended, but he has already been recognized as the number one person in the Southern Region's True Immortal Realm and is considered to be invincible in the True Immortal Realm!"
The messenger's words were so fast that they echoed in the hall.
You could hear a pin drop in the palace; only the words of the messenger echoed in the eerie silence.
Except for Su Zhenyuan, everyone else was shocked, with disbelief in their eyes and unable to speak.
There was also a strange look in Su Zhenyuan's eyes, but when he thought about Li Hao's performance in slaying demons, it was not surprising that he had such an amazing achievement.
"The number one person in the Southern Region's True Immortal Realm... Tsk."
He chuckled and said, "Go on."
The messenger's expression changed a little, and he whispered, "When he defeated the direct disciple of the Southern Territory Supreme and became the number one in the True Immortal Realm, his identity exposed some of the ancient secrets of the Southern Territory. In the end, he was suppressed by the Southern Territory Supreme and almost died in the Southern Territory."
"What?"
Su Zhenyuan's smile froze and he stared at the messenger in astonishment.
Such a genius almost died in the Southern Region?
Secret? Identity?
He asked, "What's the reason?"
Su Muqing, Su Wanqing and others also came back to their senses from the shock and their faces changed. They didn't expect that the young man had such a legendary experience.
Being suppressed by the Southern Territory Supreme was even more appalling.
The messenger immediately explained that Li Hao was related to the Immortal Emperor Tianhuai and was his disciple, and that there had been ancient disturbances in the Southern Territory, such as the hunting down of traitors.
After hearing this, everyone found it unbelievable.
What is this?
What does this have to do with Li Hao? His soul lifespan is only a hundred years!
Moreover, given the current situation in the Real Realm, this is just a small matter, so they have to suppress and kill a peerless genius with the Daoyuan Immortal Seal? !
"And what happened next?"
Su Muqing couldn't help but ask.
"Later, Haotian was surrounded by enemies, and the quasi-emperor of the imperial family wanted to kill him, but a girl suddenly broke in and saved him. She fought against the Supreme for him and died in the end. When he was about to die in front of the Supreme, Daoyuan Immortal Emperor of the Original Realm took action and rescued him. Later, he left the Southern Region. According to the time, he should have come directly to our Northern Region."
The messenger spoke quickly in a few words.
After hearing his words, Su Zhenyuan fell silent. He didn't expect that the young man would come to the Northern Territory as if fleeing.
Such a genius, rare in the world, actually ended up like a stray dog. It really made him feel ridiculous. The Southern Region was such a place, and the Southern Region Supreme was so narrow-minded and despicable, and ignored the overall situation!
"I didn't expect that he would suffer so much..."
Su Zhenyuan sighed.
Hearing this, Her Highness Su Muqing trembled slightly. At this moment, she also understood that the young man had come to escape.
He had such an amazing record in the Southern Territory, but he almost died and fled in defeat.
This genius who should have been held in the palm of a hand and protected was instead expelled and made to wander. One can imagine how painful it was!
When he first came to the Northern Territory and the Su family, he was met with his cold stare and disgust...
He had no home in the Southern Region, and when he came to the Northern Region, he was also despised...
Su Muqing felt as if a knife had stabbed her chest, and suddenly she felt a suffocating pain, so painful that she wanted to reach out to cover it.
What on earth were you doing before?
She felt as if she was crying in her heart. She didn't know whether the other person felt heartbroken or uncomfortable when facing her eyes.
She bit her lip, and all the resentment and anger in her heart were washed away at this moment. She suddenly realized that the other party did not owe her anything, but she was the one who owed the other party an apology.
"So, the marriage certificate was given to him by Daoyuan Immortal Emperor?"
In the silent hall, Su Wanqing's voice suddenly sounded, revealing an extremely calm feeling.
Su Zhenyuan nodded slightly. He already knew that the Immortal Emperor who had given the marriage certificate and had a good relationship with the ancestor was the Immortal Emperor Daoyuan.
"The Daoyuan Immortal Emperor is in charge of the Original Realm. Since he gave me the marriage certificate, then... he will also give me the qualification to go to the Original Realm. Has he gone to the Original Realm?"
Su Wanqing stared at Su Zhenyuan and asked.
Su Zhenyuan nodded slightly. Although the ancestor did not say it, the young man might not be in the original real world now, but he would enter it sooner or later.
After all, the original real world is extremely important to the True Immortals and Immortal Kings. If one can master those powers there, it will make a significant difference to breaking through the realm and becoming a king in the future!
Su Wanqing didn't say anything else, but suddenly turned around and left without saying anything.
However, Su Wanxue understood that the other party must be in a hurry to practice, so that he could compete with other geniuses who arrived first in the original real world where they were about to go.
"The original true world..."
Su Muqing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said nothing more and turned and left.
Seeing that both of them were going back, Su Wanxue did not stay any longer. She said goodbye to her parents politely and left the Minghuang Palace as well.
"Mu Qing seems to have changed her mind."
Su Qingmei whispered worriedly only after the three sisters left.
Su Zhenyuan nodded slightly. He also felt it. He didn't expect that just a dozen years would shake the childhood sweetheart relationship of Su Muqing and Lin Zexuan that had lasted for hundreds of years.
He had previously worried that if he forced his daughter into marriage, she would resist to the death, but now it seems that he was worrying too much.
However, the current situation seems to have fallen into another trouble.
He frowned slightly, then shook his head, feeling that he could never finish thinking about these troubles.
"To put it bluntly, we are all too young. We don't realize that instead of looking for someone we like, we will be happier if we find someone who likes us."
Su Zhenyuan sighed softly.
When Su Qingmei heard this, her eyebrows slightly raised, she twisted his arm and said, "So, you came to me because I like you?"
"That's not..."
As soon as Su Zhenyuan opened his mouth, he felt a cramp in his arm, which made him realize that he had said the wrong thing. However, he was a quasi-emperor after all, so he reacted very quickly and continued with the following words smoothly: "That's not the case. I came to you because I like my wife. Otherwise, why is my wife so happy?"
"You..." Su Qingmei poked his forehead with a finger, unhappily.
…
Outside the Su family, outside the Gusu Imperial Star.
On the edge of a secluded battlefield in the Northern Territory.
Here, a crack appeared, and then two figures shuttled out from it.
The crack disappeared in an instant, and the terrifying collapsing imperial power contained within it could not be traced and left no trace.
Li Hao looked up and saw a sky full of stars in the distance, but among those stars, there was a piece of gravel like yellow sand, as if it were the afterglow of the setting sun. The light from those stars reflected on the meteorite, shining on this empty battlefield that looked like an abandoned continent. It was yellow and orange everywhere, like a sunset glow.
The surrounding area was covered with dark green grass, as if countless blood had been spilled and absorbed by the grass.
The dead air and smell of blood made Li Hao look around. This was an ancient battlefield with large remains of giant beasts, but the bones were gray, as if they had gone through countless years.
Li Hao recognized that many of them were corpses of ancient demons, and those that reached this size were quite a few ancient demons at the Immortal King level, which could be called the Demon King level, but they also died here, and their bones were almost weathered, unable to withstand the wind and sand in the starry sky.
"Are you scared?"
Shi Miao held Li Hao's hand, turned around and asked softly.
Li Hao smiled and said, "With you here, I'm not afraid."
Shi Miao also smiled. There was a gentle breeze blowing around them. She held Li Hao's hand and walked slowly in this place full of the breath of death. It seemed as if a young boy and girl were taking an outing in a flower valley in the warm spring breeze.
"If it weren't for killing the ancient demon, I wouldn't have chosen a place like this to refine my body."
She explained to Li Hao.
Li Hao shook his head: "It's okay, I have eaten as many ancient demons as the ones I see here."
Shi Miao also laughed. She was aware of some of Li Hao's special abilities. She knew that although Li Hao did not have imperial blood, chaotic blood, or countless elixirs and magical objects supported by the foundation of a large family, he also had his own special powers.
Although she didn't know what that power was, she knew that it was the trump card that helped Li Hao fight against the geniuses of those big families.
However, what she really cares about and likes is not Li Hao’s special power, but Li Hao himself.
And some unforgettable experience in the distant future.
"This was once one of the 'nests' of the ancient demons that came to the real world. We called it Huangquan Valley!"
Shi Miao raised his hand and pointed to a raised hillside not far away, saying, "Look, that's it. It's broken now. It was split by the 'Master', which cut off this nest and blocked the way for the ancient demon to descend from here!"
Li Hao looked in the direction where she pointed, and saw that there was indeed a hillside there. Under the hillside was a cave, which was extremely deep. Outside, the origin of the avenue of space was floating. The cave seemed to be only a few hundred meters large, but it was like the space between heaven and earth. Every millimeter there was probably a huge space like a star.
"dominate?"
Li Hao wondered, there was no doubt that this must be the title of a certain Immortal Emperor.
"That's Su Jiuzhe whom you just met."
Shi Miao said: "He once called himself the Lord of the World. Therefore, after he was crowned as the Emperor, he was honored as the Lord by the world."
Li Hao was stunned. He didn't expect it was him.
Considering what Su Jiuzhe had told him, about opening up the ultimate realm of 'the great world', Li Hao roughly guessed the reason for his emperor's title.
“This lair is already a dead place, abandoned by the ancient demon and deserted, but the netherworld power that permeates here is still there.”
Shi Miao took Li Hao to a place not far from the hillside. The space here was layered. For those who did not master the origin of the avenue of space, as long as they set foot here, they would be lost forever. It was like a maze. Every millimeter was a huge world that was difficult to get out of.
"Wait here, I'll be back soon."
Shi Miao said to Li Hao.
Li Hao asked worriedly: "Do you want my help?"
Shi Miao smiled at Li Hao and said, "No, don't worry. I'm more worried about accidents than you."
From the look in her eyes when she said this, Li Hao knew that she was not worried about anything happening to herself, but was worried that if something happened to her, she would not be able to see him in this life.
He nodded slightly. Shi Miao's spiritual power was extremely strong. He felt that he was at the peak of the Immortal King realm. Even if he followed him, he might not be able to help much.
"Then I'll wait for you."
"good."
Shi Miao smiled. These words would be what he would say in the future.
She let go of Li Hao's hand and rushed towards the Yellow Springs Valley.
The sunset light from the distant starry sky only illuminates the side of the Yellow Springs Broken Valley, while the front is in shadow.
Soon, Shi Miao walked only a few dozen meters and his figure disappeared in front of Li Hao, like a nimble fish, diving into the space like layers of waves.
Li Hao stood there waiting silently, like a sculpture.
No chess playing, no carving, just staring into the cave.
If you are truly waiting for the one you love, you will never have any other trivial things in your hands.
For a long, long time.
Suddenly, the cave seemed to tremble slightly, and then a thick and vast dark yellow light rushed out.
Shi Miao's figure rushed out of the cave. The spatial fluctuations around her could not disturb or shake her. At this time, she was no longer in the form of a spirit, but a body of flesh and blood, exuding a heavy and deep feeling all over her body.
Soon, Shi Miao crossed layers of space and couldn't wait to return to Li Hao.
"You've been waiting for a long time."
She asked the first question.
Li Hao shook his head, looked at her body, and said, "Your body seems to be very powerful."
He felt that it seemed to be no worse than the immortal body of heaven and earth that he had created and condensed, and it was even more solid and terrifying.
"This body was shaped and condensed by Huangquan Houtu. It controls Huangquan's death killing power and has a high deterrent and lethality against ancient demons."
Shi Miao looked down and said to Li Hao with a smile.
Li Hao could feel the murderous aura emanating from his body, as if it had condensed the murderous intent of countless wronged souls. It was an extremely terrifying body of a killing god!
"In this life, do you plan to cultivate to a higher level?"
Li Hao asked.
Shi Miao smiled and shook his head, saying: "This life is used to accompany you, killing the ancient demon is just a side job."
When Li Hao heard this, his heart couldn't help but beat fast. Although he knew that the other party had deep feelings, such words were still touching.
"Then let's go together and kill the ancient demon."
Li Hao said.
Shi Miao nodded, and the two of them smiled at each other.
If an ancient demon was present and heard these words, he would probably be so angry that his soul would smoke.
"So what's next?"
Li Hao asked, "Where are we going?"
"My soul and this body have not yet been completely integrated. I need the help of the power of the underworld here to glue them together."
Shi Miao said: "At the fastest, it will take three to five years, and at the slowest, it will take seven to eight to ten years."
"Then I'll accompany you."
Li Hao said without thinking.
Shi Miao smiled slightly and said, "Although it will delay your trip to the original world, there is ancient demon blood essence here, which should be of great use to you."
Li Hao's eyes lit up immediately. Ancient demon blood essence? Cooking blood essence would definitely be better than cooking a whole ancient demon.
Shi Miao did not say anything, but took Li Hao's hand and walked in this desolate ancient battlefield. Not long after, they stopped at a place on the ground, then raised their hands to split the ground. Dozens of miles deep, they found a group of pitch-black crystals, which exuded a strong smell of blood and the dark breath of ancient demons.
"This is the blood essence of the ancient demon. During the great battle, too much blood flowed here and seeped into the ground. This is also the exit of their lair. The power of the underworld diffused and merged with the blood, condensing into blood essence."
Shi Miao handed the dark blood essence to Li Hao, "This thing is also a great tonic for the ancient demons. It can refine their strength and blood."
Li Hao nodded and took the thing. It felt extremely hard, like a gem. If he wanted to cook it, it would probably take some effort. He didn't know if he could dissolve it.
Shi Miao took Li Hao by the hand and found three more pieces here.
Although this battlefield happened a hundred thousand years ago, the many remaining chaotic forces constitute a special order. Even Li Hao's soul is hindered here and finds it difficult to penetrate too deeply. He can only rely on Shi Miao to find it.
Shi Miao's soul is stronger than Li Hao's, and he has also condensed true god blood, and more of it!
"That's enough. Let's eat first."
Li Hao said.
Shi Miao nodded and the two returned to the Huangquan Broken Valley. They found a slope here, and Li Hao activated the origin of the earth path and set up camp here. He did not build a luxurious and huge palace, but only built a simple small courtyard.
Civil engineering is the origin of infrastructure construction.
Shi Miao was extremely satisfied with this small courtyard. He clapped his hands in approval and made some small ornaments. Soon the courtyard became lively with a tea table, wooden chairs, and a swing-like rocking chair hanging on a tree in the courtyard.
In the distance, the setting sun projected from the stars does not change with the alternation of day and night, and the sky is always the same.
In this desolate and ancient battlefield, scattered with debris, only this small courtyard was emitting curls of smoke, filling the air with a warm atmosphere.
Li Hao was studying how to cook the ancient demon's blood essence in the yard, while Shi Miao was swinging on the swing, watching Li Hao busy in the sunset-like light with a smile on his face.
Li Hao worked all night but couldn't find a way to dissolve the ancient demon's blood essence. He had to take out the ancient demon's flesh and blood and cook it to fill his and Shi Miao's stomachs, and at the same time improve his soul.
Shi Miaochu accompanied Li Hao in the yard. She picked some flowers and plants from somewhere and weaved them into grass wreaths to decorate the yard.
In addition, she would go to the cave every day, disappear for several hours, and enter the gap inside to absorb the power of the underworld.
Time passes quietly.
Half a month later, Li Hao finally figured out a way to dissolve the ancient demon's blood essence and made the first blood essence dish.
But the taste was disappointing, and for Li Hao it was an absolute failure.
He began to work harder and made continuous improvements. In addition to accompanying Shi Miao, he also delved into the preparation of delicious blood-essence food.
Half a year later, he finally used blood sperm to make a delicious meal that satisfied himself.
And his cooking skills were getting closer and closer to a breakthrough, and he would occasionally catch a glimpse of the twelfth state of mind.
Time passes day by day.
But in this battlefield, the setting sun is eternal and the scenery remains unchanged. However, Li Hao and Shi Miao in the courtyard do not feel bored or tired.
A year later, Li Hao's speed in producing blood essence increased, and he could produce one portion in ten days.
The power brought by the ancient demon's blood essence is indeed far beyond the ancient demon's flesh and blood. Just one portion of blood essence healed hundreds of Li Hao's previously burned and scarred golden bones!
Just eleven blood essences were enough to completely restore Li Hao's soul and golden bones to their original state.
Afterwards, after taking the blood essence again, Li Hao felt that a more refined spiritual power began to grow in his spiritual golden bones.
This power is like energy, flowing through the soul's golden bones.
When ten capsules of ancient demon blood essence are taken, this pure spiritual power will condense and turn into a drop of true divine blood!
This true god blood contains extremely strong power, which is completely different from the power emitted by the primordial spirit golden bone, and is more pure. If the power brought by the primordial spirit golden bone is a fist, then the true god blood is a blade.
Although small in size, the terrifying defense force and spiritual power it brings instantly, and its explosive power is dozens of times that of the spiritual golden bone!
When his whole body was filled with true god blood, Li Hao felt that the power was probably greater than that brought by hundreds of thousands of primordial spirit golden bones. That was already an unimaginable level!
In addition to condensing the power of Huangquan every day, Shi Miao also accompanied Li Hao in searching for the blood essence of the ancient demon. When they returned to the courtyard, the two of them were tired after eating and drinking, so Li Hao carved a guqin and played it for Shi Miao to entertain him.
He never had the opportunity to study and improve his six-section musicality, and now Li Hao just used it as a leisure activity.
Anyway, he has enough points for improvement. Even if the melody is improved to the seventh or eighth level, his state of mind cannot be used for the time being. It is better to spend this energy on the sharp blade.
If there is no further progress in the future, I might consider slowly improving my music and poetry and calligraphy, and enhance these two skills as well.
The ancient demon battlefield, the afterglow of the setting sun, the small courtyard with a fence, the curling smoke from cooking, and the sound of the guqin.
The years are quiet, flowing slowly in this battlefield that is feared and forgotten by countless people.
To these two people, this place is like their home, a paradise on earth.
We are all homeless people, and wherever we are is our home.
When two people are together, this place becomes their home.
Seven years passed in the blink of an eye.
It has been seven years since the two of them came to the Yellow Springs Broken Valley battlefield. One day, Li Hao was cooking the blood essence of the ancient demon. Suddenly, the sky and the earth shook slightly, and a strange wave emerged.
But soon, the fluctuations disappeared like ripples in the horizontal plane, as if it were an illusion.
Li Hao was a little surprised and looked around the yard.
"No one will come here."
Shi Miao said: "The outside has been banned for a long time."
Without the Emperor Chunzhan Sword, the two of them would not be able to get in.
"What happened just now?" Li Hao looked at her puzzledly.
"It's the fluctuation of the original real world. Someone must have ascended and set foot in the original real world."
Shi Miao said.
Li Hao was stunned and couldn't help asking: "Is the noise so loud? Can it be felt even here?"
"This is probably why the original true world is the holy place for immortals to build their foundations."
Shi Miao said: "The original true world is equivalent to the original true world. The origin of the Great Dao is everywhere, and there is also extremely powerful chaotic power. When the cracks in the true world are opened, it is like a red-hot iron placed in ice water. The power of nothingness in the true world will be poured into the original true world, and the chaotic power in the original true world will also escape, including the original consciousness of the original true world, which will also be affected..."
She whispered, "In the original world, someone will deal with the void power that infiltrates it to prevent it from being polluted, but there is no way to stop the leakage of chaotic power."
Li Hao seemed to understand, and calculated the time in his mind. They had been in the ancient battlefield for seven years, and had been away from the Su family for seven years. This should be the day when the Su family and other top geniuses in the Northern Territory entered the original real world.
This fluctuation should be caused by them.
Shi Miao gazed into the distance for a moment, then slowly retracted his eyes, glanced at Li Hao, and said nothing.
The days soon returned to normal. Li Hao and Shi Miao continued to search for the ancient demon's blood essence every day as usual, and relied on each other in the yard.
Seven years later, Li Hao's musical skills had advanced to the eighth level.
And through his repeated insights, the art of cooking broke through to the twelfth level.
He obtained the fourth twelfth state of mind.
In addition to the Dao of the physical body and the Dao of the sword, he could also improve two more Dao realms to the twelfth level.
Without a doubt, Li Hao’s first choice is Yu Dao.
As for the second choice, Li Hao did not use it for the time being, leaving the twelfth level of cooking state of mind.
Another two years passed.
The ancient demon blood essence became increasingly difficult to find. It took Li Hao half a month to find a piece. He realized that the ancient demon blood essence here had almost been eaten up by them.
And over the years, he had reaped huge rewards. In addition to breaking through the twelfth level in the art of cooking, he had also condensed 121 drops of his soul's true blood!
Li Hao couldn't imagine how his combat power would be enhanced if he burned the golden bones of his primordial spirit and the blood of the true god at the same time, exerting his combat power to the extreme, and then combined with the carving sword of time.
However, when he was with Shi Miao, he didn't think about the battle and felt extremely relaxed.
"There is very little ancient demon blood essence left here."
Shi Miao said.
Li Hao nodded, but didn't respond.
Shi Miao saw that Li Hao didn't seem to care at all, and a gentle light welled up in her eyes. She said softly, "Let's go to the original world tomorrow."
Li Hao was stunned and asked, "Go tomorrow? Where is your body?"
"My body was completely integrated half a year ago."
Shi Miao met Li Hao's eyes, her cheeks slightly reddened, and she said: "I didn't say anything, I just want to stay here longer, and dig some more ancient demon blood essence for you. Once we go to the original real world, time is precious there, we..."
Li Hao understood immediately. He held the other person's soft hand and said, "Just be happy."
Shi Miao was stunned, and her eyes gradually became gentle. This was the person she had spied on countless times over the years, and he had never changed.
She laughed, and Li Hao laughed too. Many things didn't need to be said or explained.
The next day.
Li Hao and Shi Miao stood outside the small fenced courtyard.
"I stayed with you in the human world before, but I wasn't really myself back then."
Shi Miao looked at the small fenced courtyard in front of her. Her reincarnation Ying Xiaoxiao had also visited that border city in the human world. There was some nostalgia and reluctance in her eyes.
After living here for nine years, this small courtyard seems to have really become their home.
Li Hao looked at the small courtyard in front of him and nodded slightly. He felt an indescribable reluctance and attachment in his heart.
"We'll come back after we return from the original world."
Shi Miao turned around and said to Li Hao.
Li Hao nodded.
"I have to protect it well and it can't be damaged." Shi Miao said, raising his hand to exert the powerful power of time, covering the courtyard and forming a complex time barrier formation around it.
Li Hao smiled and said, "Even if it's broken, I can fix it."
"That won't do."
Shi Miao said seriously: "It can't be broken."
"Um."
Faced with her seriousness, Li Hao also nodded seriously.
"Let's go."
Shi Miao said, she raised her hand, and a ray of light appeared in the palm of her hand, as if communicating with a distant existence, calling for some mysterious power.
Seeing this, Li Hao also silently communicated in his heart the power that was previously bestowed by the Immortal Emperor Daoyuan.
Soon, two cracks appeared in the sky above their heads. It was extremely dark inside, and exuded an ancient and vast aura of thoughts, as if it was some kind of ancient will.
At the same time, a thick and deep aura of chaos came towards him, and in an instant Li Hao felt as if all the pores on his body opened instinctively, greedily breathing in this chaotic aura.
