Chapter 803: Chapter 161: Heavenly Prides Gather, Leaving Names on the Heavenly Stele_2

Lin Baichuan and the others were also horrified, hastily on guard and quickly investigated the cause of death of these demons, only to discover that they all seemed to have been killed by a single strike, as if an extremely sharp blade had rapidly sliced through the Demon Tide, slaying them all!

“They didn’t even have the chance to scatter; they were wiped out swiftly!”

A Saint Heir’s eyes revealed shock, and his heart thumped vigorously.

Lin Baichuan’s Primordial Spirit soared, in an instant traversing a hundred miles, roaming heaven and earth.

Soon, he saw two figures sitting on the mountain peak of Lihe Valley a hundred miles away; the barren ground was covered with lavish cushions, with a chessboard set up and fine wine poured full.

Lin Baichuan’s pupils constricted slightly, could it be…

He did not speak, retracted his Primordial Spirit, and then flew directly towards the peak of Lihe Valley.

The others also spotted the figure of Li Hao and were stunned, following Lin Baichuan to the peak of Lihe Valley.

“Brother Haotian?”

Lin Baichuan saw Li Hao sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, and noticed streamers swirling around him like a vortex, seemingly in the midst of cultivation.

Li Hao, sensing the disturbance, immediately retracted his energies, only to find that these energies could not be drawn back into his body; once withdrawn, they would dissipate and would have to be re-condensed again. This preparation would not work in the face of an enemy; it required too much lead time.

It seemed his approach had many fatal flaws. Had he taken the wrong path?

Opening his eyes, Li Hao saw Lin Baichuan, Chu Hanwei, and six others, their clothes stained, having apparently endured a tough battle. Some even had their sleeves missing, baring their bare arms as if their limbs had been severed, only to have regenerated.

Seeing that he had disturbed the other’s cultivation, Lin Baichuan’s face showed a trace of embarrassment as he said,

“Brother Haotian, we came to ask about the demons on the battlefield a hundred miles away – were they all killed by Brother Haotian?”

Li Hao was somewhat surprised, nodding and saying, “Yes, I killed them. Were they the ones driven over by you guys? Did I unknowingly take your prey?” S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“…”

Lin Baichuan and the others exchanged glances, suddenly recalling their master’s respectful and affectionate treatment towards Haotian; no wonder he was so graciously favored.

“Brother Haotian was able to single-handedly exterminate thousands of Great Demons with significant magical powers…”

A complex expression appeared in Lin Baichuan’s eyes. Previously, he wanted to exchange moves with the other, but the master directly declined on behalf of Haotian, perhaps because the master saw that his strength was incomparable to Haotian’s.

This made him feel frustrated; he was a disciple of a Saint, uniquely gifted from a young age, and his fame echoed across several Divine Dynasties.

Now, even within the Thief Saint’s Holy Land, he was a standout, yet he didn’t even qualify to exchange blows with Haotian?

“Those Void Demons were capable of stirring up the Void Tide, yet Brother Haotian was also able to withstand it. Impressive.”

Another Saint Heir came to his senses and couldn’t help but exclaim. They had been uncomfortable with this stranger who had been so favored by the Thief Saint, questioning his merits. But at this moment, they were completely convinced.

“Void Tide? I don’t know about that.”

Li Hao was puzzled. Could it be because they were too far away, and the demons hadn’t had the chance to unleash it before he killed them?

Hearing Li Hao’s words and seeing his clean clothes, not even a speck of dust on him, from such an intense fight no less, it was clear he had held back a great deal of strength.

Chu Hanwei’s eyes twinkled, she gazed at Li Hao and said, “With such ability, Brother Haotian, why not try your hand at the Heavenly Stele to see if you can leave your name on it.”

“Heavenly Stele?”

Li Hao’s eyes flickered slightly; Elder Ting Feng had also mentioned it.

In the center of the All Heavens Battlefield stood an ancient stele that has persisted through the ages, rumored to be a Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapon.

However, this stele was not a weapon of assault, and it was enveloped in special prohibitions, immovable and unshakable, and thus it remained here.

This stele has a magical effect; any living creature that touches it can have its strength tested and revealed on the stele.

With the opening of the All Heavens Battlefield, armies from various realms come here to participate in battle, and some soldiers also come before the stele to verify their strength as a memento.

Now, with the battlefield sealed, it was exceptionally quiet, left only for these Heavenly Prides from the Holy Lands to wander about, but the Heavenly Stele still stood, unchanged since ancient times.

“That’s right. With Brother Haotian’s ability, you would undoubtedly be able to leave your name on the stele. We were planning to try it out after this; why don’t we go take a look together now?”

Lin Baichuan came back to his senses, immediately interested, inviting Li Hao to see just how much of a gap there was.

“With Brother Haotian’s strength, you might even leave a blue light!”

Another Saint Heir spoke; although they hadn’t seen how exactly Li Hao dispatched the group of demons, the fact that he could stand against them alone was already quite remarkable.

Li Hao, seeing their enthusiastic invitation, thought for a moment and said, “Alright, let’s take a look.”

It was a good opportunity, as his Extreme Dao was full and could not absorb more, and his energy channels hit a bottleneck in thinking, so it might be good to have a look around.

“Other guys from the All Heavens might also come here to test themselves, we might run into them, so let’s be careful.”

Chu Hanwei said.

Li Hao and Hongyue stood up, packed up the lavish cushions on the ground, as well as the chessboard and wine, and then followed the others.

Hongyue walked beside Li Hao, listening to the Saint Heirs discuss the Heavenly Stele and the encounters with the cave demons.

Her mind was astute, and she vaguely picked up on something; those demons that were checkmated and killed by Li Hao seemed to be extremely fearsome, with all these Saint Heirs needing to avoid their sharpness.

However, Li Hao had casually dispatched them without even a second glance… Hongyue’s eyes flickered, increasingly feeling Li Hao’s extraordinary nature, thinking to herself that if these Saint Heirs knew of this gentleman’s casual slaughter of the demons, she wondered what their reactions would be.
