Chapter 1504 Chapter 372: Obstruction
Di Lincen had initially only considered Li Hao as a friend with similar interests, not as an opponent.
Only because he felt that the only ones who could be his opponents were those two Supreme disciples, including other great clan prodigies like Ghost Ling Yue and Shen Wuji, who weren’t viewed as opponents because the gap was too obvious.
But now, the power Li Hao displayed made him laugh uncontrollably, realizing he had misjudged, and the true adversary wasn’t the other party, but himself.
On the Emperor Platform, Li Hao gazed at the power freezing space-time, his eyes moving upwards to the sealing array barrier above, where the figure of the Immortal Guard Commander hovered, revealing solemn shock in his eyes.
Undoubtedly, the timely protection of the Sword Heart’s life was not merely due to the strength of the Sword Heart itself.
And the interference from outside signaled that the Sword Heart had lost.
What a pity, unable to send him to reincarnation… Li Hao felt regretful, as the other party had first harbored a murderous intent against him, intending to kill him within three moves, he simply reciprocated in kind.
Space-time slowly loosened, gradually shrinking, reversing.
Soon after, the cracks covering the Primordial Spirit of the Sword Heart gradually healed, the Sword Intent of the Five Extremes Emperor Sword upon it was wiped away.
The Sword Heart survived, and his physical body regenerated amidst the blood mist, recovering in an instant as if nothing had happened.
But this scene was imprinted in the eyes of the Sword Heart, who stared at Li Hao in a daze, his mind buzzing with disbelief and rejection!
Could he lose? Could he actually lose?!
The Sword Dao Sixth Layer, eminent in the True Immortal Realm, even capable of creating miracles. Before the battle, his master had instructed him to save his strength and not harm other Immortal Dynasty prodigies, as the Southern Domain was currently short on people, and these prodigies would become the pillars of the Southern Domain in the future.
But unexpectedly, he actually lost.
In just three moves, he was defeated in two, with one move resulting in near death!
The three-move test his master mentioned, he hadn’t wanted that young man to surpass this trial, but now, the one unable to surpass it was himself!
“What kind of sword is that of yours?!”
The Primordial Spirit of the Sword Heart, scarcely able to return to his body, his mind was finally clearing up, looking at Li Hao with both shock and anger.
His rare loss of composure, emotions fluctuating continuously, he couldn’t help himself.
“Emperor Sword.”
Li Hao’s gaze was cold as he gave him a faint glance, his entire body’s power gradually retracting, the merit in his hands dissipating into nothingness.
The Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation behind him slowly faded, as the intervention of others had already determined the outcome of this battle, and it was time for him to leave unless that Supreme went back on his word.
But before countless people of the Southern Domain, Li Hao believed, that Supreme wouldn’t go so far.
“Emperor Sword?”
The Sword Heart felt like his mind was thundering, how could he not see that the sword was terrifying, its technique certainly not as skillful as his, but it contained a formidable Emperor Sword might, and furthermore, the Tao Origin of the swordsmanship linked with the Five Paths’ Origin, forming a unique origin power!
This power rendered his Nine Sequences Origin unable to respond.
But in the world of Ten Thousand Dao, all stem from the Nine Sequences. He, too, held a Nine Sequences Immortal Seal, also reaching the Fourth Level in the Nine Order Dao, which was comparable to Li Hao’s Realm, so why could Li Hao wield such a sword, while he couldn’t?!
He couldn’t accept it, couldn’t believe it, but the fact was right in front of him, leaving him only bewildered and furious.
“The swordsmanship you wield is derived from the Five Paths Origin, who taught you, your master?!”
The Sword Heart gritted his teeth in anger.
His eyes were full of reluctance, since birth, his Sword Dao aptitude had led his clan.
The same sword techniques that took others in the clan hundreds of years to comprehend, that took prodigies years to master, he could understand with a single glance in a day!
From childhood to adulthood, in cultivation of various kinds, he never encountered obstacles, nor anything he found difficult.
The extraordinary sword techniques that others struggled to grasp were crystal clear to him, he didn’t understand why others were so foolish until he realized he was simply too exceptional.
Toward the sword, he had an extraordinary understanding, an extraordinary love and obsession!
He wanted to become the Sword Venerable, the Sword God, to carve an Emperor Road with the sword, to become a Sword Dao Supreme!
But now, in a duel within the same Realm, confronted with Sword Dao, he lost, feeling his Dao Heart crumble, unable to accept it!
“If by taking Heaven and Earth as a master, I suppose that could be considered having a master.”
Li Hao paused his steps, slightly turned his body, the indifferent eyes devoid of emotion. He knew that under the watchful eyes of many, especially in this Heavenly Palace territory, it was impossible for him to kill the opponent. But if he were killed by the opponent, the Immortal Guard Commander would definitely not intervene.
This was inherently unfair, but he could accept it, as it’s their territory.
“If the master you refer to is my Heavenly Calamity Immortal Emperor, then you would be disappointed, it’s not so.”
With that, Li Hao turned away without looking back, the indifferent look retracted, and he walked out of the Emperor Platform.
“What?”
The Sword Heart was stunned. Li Hao’s initial words gave him a particular feeling, as if he had comprehended something, but the latter words left him bewildered once again.
Whoosh!
His figure flickered, demonstrating top-notch movement technique, like a shadow of sword light flashing in front of Li Hao.
He blocked Li Hao’s path, gritting his teeth, his eyes complex and persistent, “I lost, but I want to know, where did you comprehend this swordsmanship from, is it from what you said was within Heaven and Earth?”
“I have no obligation to tell you.”
Li Hao said coldly.
The Sword Heart’s face was ugly, “Did you comprehend it from Heaven and Earth? That swordsmanship contains the Five Paths Origin, did you comprehend it from the Five Paths Origin?!”
