Chapter 300: Crushing All Resistance
Li Hao comprehended a trace of the Heavenly Venerable's will, and in an instant, he felt a sudden sense of clarity.
Although he hadn't truly reached the final realm of the Heavenly Master, his understanding of power had transformed.
Previously, he borrowed power, but now, he controlled it!
Boom!
Various laws of the Dao crashed towards him, with thunder and fire filling the sky, and the wind howling, intending to tear Li Hao's body apart.
But suddenly, the wounds on Li Hao's body began to heal at an astonishing speed. At the same time, a cold, electric-like gleam erupted from his eyes, and he abruptly raised his fist.
At this moment, he wasn't just clenching his five fingers; he was grasping an entire world!
As his fist roared out, the myriad of visions dissipated in an instant—one punch to clear the skies!
Even the demonic clouds shrouding the imperial palace were swept away by his punch, as if it had punched a hole through the heavens!
The Dao techniques of the five people were all shattered, with absolute dominance and brute force. His fist scattered the laws, and the force of the punch blew away the principles!
At this moment, Li Hao truly embodied the concept of "breaking all techniques with force!"
As this punch was unleashed, the world seemed to fall silent.
The five who had previously attacked relentlessly, trying to leave Li Hao no room to breathe, were stunned. The sudden collapse of their Dao techniques left them in shock, as they stared blankly at the youth before them.
Simultaneously, the youth lifted his head, revealing a pair of eyes devoid of emotion, cold and indifferent to the extreme, like the gaze of the heavens.
There was no hatred, no anger, and no sharpness—only indifference, as if he were looking at ants!
"This..."
"The laws... they shattered? How is that possible?"
The beautiful woman and the others were all frozen in place, their eyes filled with horror and disbelief.
The young man in yellow and white robes, known for his sharp mind, was also momentarily stunned, his eyes full of incredulity.
This... is the power of the Peaceful Dao realm?!
Even in the Land of the Saints, he had never encountered such a monstrous talent!
While they were in shock, Li Hao's body suddenly moved again, teleporting with the Return to the Void technique.
His figure seemed to cross the chaotic currents of space, stepping into the Dao domains of the five in an instant. In that moment, the oppressive force of the five Dao domains descended upon him—destructive divine thunder aimed to tear his body apart, wind-slicing laws sought to shred him, and extreme cold laws attempted to freeze him. Combined with the beautiful woman's binding laws, the restrictions on him were beyond imagination!
The combined Dao domains of the five were like a forbidden zone. Even a true master like Qin would not last more than a few breaths before perishing.
However, at this moment, the thunder and fire, the hurricanes, and the extreme cold frost flowers that approached Li Hao were all blocked by an invisible force.
Li Hao's target upon teleporting was still the beautiful woman in front of him.
Seeing Li Hao so close, yet surrounded by a Dao force field that shielded him from the laws, the beautiful woman was momentarily stunned.
Clearly, this scene defied logic and exceeded her understanding, causing her to be momentarily dazed.
But as Li Hao raised his arm, she suddenly snapped out of it, feeling a shuddering terror for the first time on the battlefield. She felt the shadow of death looming over her!
"No, save me!"
Facing someone in the Peaceful Dao realm, she, a being in the Dao Law realm, couldn't help but scream, disregarding her image.
The other four were equally horrified. It wasn't surprising that Li Hao could enter their Dao domain using the Return to the Void technique, but the fact that he could withstand the suppression of their Dao domains was unfathomable!
All of this happened in a brief moment. As soon as Li Hao stepped into the Dao domain, he drew his sword and slashed.
This strike directly manipulated the power of heaven and earth, instantly gathering and condensing it into one sword. As the slash swept across, the Dao force on the beautiful woman's body tried to defend, but it was forced aside by the vast power of the sword, like a gale scattering water.
The sword light didn't pause, instantly severing her head, and then, with another strike, he shattered her body entirely!
"No... impossible!"
Her primordial spirit tried to flee in panic, but before she could escape, Li Hao teleported again and appeared before her.
The beautiful woman was even more frantic, begging for mercy, but before she could finish her plea, Li Hao struck with a punch, shattering her primordial spirit into dust, like sand blown away by the wind, as her pitiful scream echoed and eventually faded away.
"You... you're courting death!"
The young man in yellow and white robes and the remaining three finally reacted, their expressions a mix of anger and fear. Despite their vast knowledge, they were unable to fully comprehend Li Hao's methods.
The young man in yellow and white robes recognized that Li Hao's teleportation technique was the Return to the Void, but he had never seen the power of the Extreme Immortality and Three Immortals realm. However, seeing Li Hao unleash such terrifying killing power with just the Peaceful Dao realm, he had a good guess.
This young man from the human world most likely mastered those two most mysterious realms!
Especially the Heavenly Master's Extreme Realm, which was extremely mysterious and the most difficult to cultivate. It required not only comprehension but also an extraordinary and unique mindset. Even in his sect and family, there were no records of it. It wasn't something that could be achieved through years or resources alone.
"Divine Art, Imprisoning Intent!"
The half-masked young man suddenly unleashed his Divine Art. After seeing two of their companions slain by Li Hao, they all realized the danger of death and went all out.
The laws of the Dao converged and fused in a mysterious combination, transforming into a Divine Art ability!
This Divine Art could imprison the target's consciousness and soul, even trapping the primordial spirit, severing its connection with the body, leaving the target in a dazed state.
Using this ability, one could destroy the enemy's body and then deal with the soul. It was an incredibly fearsome Divine Art, and his trump card.
At this moment, as the Divine Art was unleashed, a terrifying force spread out, aiming to envelop and imprison Li Hao's consciousness.
But in the next moment, this force realized that Li Hao's consciousness was vast and boundless, not confined within his body, but within this world!
The imprisoning force spread out but couldn't envelop or cover it.
Before the Divine Art could extend further, this force was suddenly shattered by a surge of anger!
Heavenly Venerable's Will cannot be imprisoned!
Even though Li Hao had only comprehended a trace of the Heavenly Venerable's will, it was beyond the reach of mere Divine Art, unimaginably terrifying.
Boom!
Li Hao took a step forward, ignoring the half-masked young man. Since the opponent's Divine Art was useless against him, he could be left alone. Instead, he chose to kill another young man.
This young man had long braided hair and wore a purple-blue robe. He was just about to unleash his Divine Art but suddenly saw Li Hao appear in front of him.
His pupils contracted, and he quickly retreated, using Dao rhythm to teleport within his Dao domain.
However, Li Hao clearly sensed the rhythm of his Dao. Under the extreme transformation of the Immortalization realm, even the traces of the Return to the Void technique would be captured, let alone Dao rhythm.
Boom!
Sword light instantly slashed out, the sword energy condensed to the extreme, as if carrying the weight of ten thousand mountains.
The young man was terrified, his body lit up with three beams of light. A dragon's roar echoed, and countless whispered chants emanated, radiating dark red light like flames. These were treasures fueled by incense offerings.
But at this moment, under Li Hao's sword, the incense treasures let out a mournful cry as the incense was extinguished. One sword shattered the defenses of the three treasures, forcing aside the Dao force on his body, and directly slashed down!
With a muffled bang, the sword strike felt like a heavy club smashing down, instantly blasting the young man's body apart.
His primordial spirit burst out, but before he could escape, Li Hao followed up with another sword, tearing it apart.
In just a few moments, Li Hao had slain two Dao Law realm powerhouses, his ferocious might making the remaining three turn pale with fear.
The half-masked young man was especially dazed. His Divine Art had just been shattered by the backlash, and the surge of anger from it reverberated in his mind. His head was still buzzing, filled with that supreme and inviolable will, radiating fury, making him tremble and feel an overwhelming sense of dread.
"Quick, lend me your Dao domain power! I need to use that Divine Art!"
The young man in yellow and white robes suddenly shouted.
The other two quickly reacted, their hearts trembling. They knew exactly which Divine Art he was referring to.
To lend their Dao domain power was akin to handing over their weapons to another—something only done with those one trusted deeply.
But at this moment, they were all in the same boat and clearly had no other choice. They quickly lent their Dao domain power.
"Divine Art, Heavenly Imprisonment and Earthly Extermination!!"
The young man in yellow and white robes, empowered by the two others, swiftly gathered all his strength and roared as he unleashed his ultimate Divine Art, the most powerful one he had mastered!
With his own power alone, executing this Divine Art was already a struggle, which showed just how terrifying it was. But now, with the combined strength of three, the Divine Art extended outward, just as its name suggested, capable of sealing the heavens and imprisoning people—even the Return to the Void technique couldn't penetrate it.
As the opponent's Divine Art erupted, Li Hao also gathered the power of the entire world, sending a powerful punch toward the trio.
Boom!
The roaring fist force resembled a falling celestial star, ready to pierce through the entire earth!
As the fist formed, the ground below collapsed and cracked, pressured by the overwhelming power.
The three in midair had their pupils constrict, their hearts filled with terror. What kind of power is this?!
Just as their Divine Art took shape, Li Hao's fist came crashing down. In an instant, they felt as though a massive mountain had slammed into them, shaking them violently and causing them to spit out blood.
"Impossible! How can your mortal body withstand such power?!" the young man in yellow and white robes shouted in shock and anger as he looked at Li Hao.
Li Hao didn't respond, but instead swung his sword and teleported, appearing before one of the women. With one sword strike, her two sacred treasures shattered, their light extinguished as Li Hao's sword tore her apart.
Without pausing, Li Hao twisted his sword to crush her primordial spirit, then immediately turned his attention to the half-masked young man who had attempted to imprison his will and soul.
Seeing Li Hao teleport toward him, the young man's eyes filled with despair.
At that moment, he finally understood why that damn Void Origin Saint Son hadn't taken action himself and instead invited them over, willingly offering the thousands of years of incense power of this dynasty rather than keeping it for himself. He claimed it was due to concerns about the demons, that the demons might intervene, but in truth, there was no sign of any demons.
The youth before him was the real demon!
"I hate this!!"
He screamed in hatred, but soon after, he was cut down by Li Hao's relentless sword strikes.
With a trace of the Heavenly Venerable's will in control, Li Hao turned to look at the young man in yellow and white robes.
At this moment, the young man felt as if cold water had been poured over him, chilling him to the bone.
The six of them had come together, invited to the human world, with their sects secretly opening a celestial gate to this remote part of the continent. Here, a dynasty had been quietly developing, accumulating incense power.
This location was so hidden and obscure that even if the dynasty were destroyed, it would likely take a long time before anyone noticed. It wouldn't cause much of a stir since the rules of the Land of the Saints forbade casual interference and slaughter in the human world.
But rules were only for the obedient to follow.
For the sake of thousands of years of human incense power, and given the large population of this dynasty, they thought it was worth it.
But now, after arriving, five of them had fallen in the blink of an eye.
Only he remained.
