The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 403 Leaving and Guarding (7K)

"Why are you here?!"

When the ancient demon leader saw the woman with the red tasseled spear, he was extremely shocked and immediately realized that something must have happened on the battlefield ahead, otherwise the enemy would not have been able to come here directly.

It had urgently mobilized its men, but discovered that something was very wrong. Years of comfort had made it underestimate this attack, and it did not expect it would lead to such a disaster.

boom!
As the woman with the red tasseled spear made her move, the spear seemed to overturn the seas and shatter the void, creating a terrifying force.

Li Hao had long realized that the world in this real world was extremely oppressive. In the Land of Saints, he could easily split the void with a sword, but he couldn't do it here. Even if he put in all his strength, he could only cause a slight distortion in the space.

And yet, the might displayed by the woman with the red tasseled spear before her eyes gave her a feeling of being able to run rampant and unrestrained, as if she were not bound by the heavens and the earth.

Bang!
As the spear pierced through, one of the ancient demon leader's wings was pierced, but at the same time, it roared and fought back at the opponent.

They are both at the True Lord level, and neither side has military reinforcements, so it doesn't think it will lose.

"Life is silent!"

A force of the origin of life appeared, and the domain ruled by the ancient demon spread out. As the wings were injured, a beam of blood flew out from the domain and turned into a hideous bloody skull head, swallowing the woman with the red tassel spear.

The woman with the red tasseled spear also opened up a territory, and in that territory there were countless spear shadows and illusory scenes of countless towering peaks. But if you look closely, you will find that they are all huge spears that reach the sky.

The spear in her territory suddenly trembled, and as she attacked, it flew out and instantly defeated the bloody skull head. Then she charged into the territory of the ancient demon leader with the spear.

Whoosh!
She thrust out her spear suddenly, and a bright red light seemed to flash.

The laws of the ancient demon's domain were distorted and seemed to be ineffective. The spear suddenly pierced through his chest and nailed him to the rock wall of the canyon next to him.

The ancient demon leader obviously did not expect that this shot would be so terrifying. It seemed to be some kind of extremely powerful shooting technique. Moreover, the immortal power in the opponent's body was much stronger than his.

boom!
Black mist burst out from the ancient demon leader's body, and suddenly his whole body turned red. Deep anger appeared in his eyes, and he suddenly slashed out a wave that was almost void of existence.

The wave was like a moon blade, slashing out suddenly, so fast that it was unbelievable.

The woman with the red tasseled spear seemed to be prepared. She suddenly flashed and appeared on the other side like a ghost, then attacked again.

"Soul sucking!"

The ancient demon leader was shocked and angry, and didn't dare to let her get close again. The human's close combat ability was too terrifying.

As a circle of gray light vibrated, the innate power exploded, first affecting the middle-aged soldiers in its hands.

The eyes of the woman with the red tasseled spear turned cold, and she suddenly approached with extremely fast ghostly movements. She swept the spear across, cutting off the middle-aged soldier's arm and helping him break free, but she herself was too late to resist the attack.

But as the gray wave hit, the bright red armor on her body suddenly lit up with blood flames, burning it to ashes.

The ancient demon leader's pupils shrank slightly, realizing that something was wrong.

Many rumors in the outside world seemed to be true. It had stayed here for too long and had become somewhat off track, but now it realized that the human race in this real world had actually figured out the armor and weapons to resist them, the ancient demons.

As the bright red armor was activated, the woman with the red tasseled spear took the attack head-on, shook off the middle-aged soldier, and then killed the opponent with all her might.

Her hair was flying and turned silver rapidly.

Li Hao was very familiar with this look, it was actually the ultimate state of immortality!
Along the way, it was the first time that Li Hao saw someone display the ultimate state of immortality, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

In addition to the extreme state of transformation into immortality, the woman with the red tasseled spear also burst out with other extreme powers. She was surrounded by the avenue. Li Hao could see that the other party seemed to have also cultivated to the extreme state of hearing the Tao, and was immune to all kinds of invasions.

As the extreme state was revealed, the woman with the red tasseled spear became more powerful and she kept stabbing at the ancient demon leader. Holes were pierced on his body, but his wounds could not heal.

The ancient demon leader roared in shock and anger. Under the same realm, he was actually suppressed by the human race. Only the top genius among the human race could do it.

It suddenly turned around, fighting and fleeing.

The expression of the woman with the red tasseled spear suddenly turned cold, the laws of heaven and earth were revealed, and the spear in her hand suddenly emitted a strange aura of laws.

"Birth and death!"

The woman with the red tasseled spear drew her spear instantly, piercing through the territory led by the ancient demon.

The ancient demon leader found that his domain was unable to resist. The power of the opponent's immortal laws was above it, distorting and destroying its laws.

Bang! The shot pierced its head.

But this was not a fatal injury. At the moment when she pierced his head, the Ancient Demon Leader also used his most powerful means of forbearance, the original talent of the Ancient Demon clan, soul harvesting!
A pitch-black sharp blade suddenly shot out from its soul and arrived in an instant, striking the woman with the red tasseled spear.

The bright red armor of the woman with the red tasseled spear was burning with bloody flames, but it was split in half by the black blade and penetrated directly into her body.

With a muffled groan, the woman with the red tasseled spear turned pale, and the cold murderous intent in her eyes fell into a moment of confusion, but she soon woke up. Then, her immortal power turned into a long silver-white flame, and she suddenly stabbed out with the spear.

Bang!
The body of the ancient demon leader was torn apart, and countless spear beams exploded, splitting his flesh into pieces.

And from the minced meat, a black shadow emerged. It was the ancient demon leader's soul. It pounced towards the woman with the red tasseled spear angrily, wanting to strangle her soul and take over her body.

But the woman with the red tasseled spear seemed to have expected this. She raised her hand and cast out a magic talisman, which struck the black shadow like lightning.

Along with the blazing lightning, the ancient demon leader's soul let out a shrill scream. A strong force of calamity enveloped him, constantly burning his soul.

At the same time, a series of gun shadows pierced out and quickly shattered his soul.

In just a few minutes, the ancient demon leader was killed by the woman with the red tasseled spear.

Li Hao and the middle-aged soldier were stunned, and then they breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, feeling a little surprised and excited.

However, after strangling the ancient demon leader's soul to death, a look of paleness flashed across the face of the woman with the red tasseled spear. The battle was extremely quick, but only she knew that it was by no means as simple as it seemed. She used the secret technique taught by her master and stimulated several times of her immortal power to easily tear apart the opponent's territory.

Otherwise, under the same realm, this ancient demon would never be defeated so easily.

Master was right. These ancient demon leaders all had terrifying spiritual attacks. Fortunately, she was fully prepared.

"Are you a veteran who survived the great battle that killed the emperor?"

The woman with the red tasseled spear quickly stabilized her breath, her expression returned to its cold state, and she looked at the middle-aged soldier with a hint of calmness in her eyes.

She still had great respect for the soldiers who fought in that battle.

The middle-aged soldier heard the words and roughly knew the battle she was talking about. He didn't expect that the outside world would give this battle such a name, the Emperor's Death War. It was indeed like that. Even several immortal emperors whose names he had heard of fell...

His thoughts drifted a little, and he felt a little sad, but he quickly came back to his senses and nodded to the woman with the red tassel spear, "That's right."

The woman with the red tasseled spear nodded slightly, then looked at Li Hao, frowning slightly, "What about you?"

She was just a Saint-level cultivator, and she didn't think she could survive the battle. And even if she could survive, a Saint-level cultivator wouldn't have such a long lifespan, especially in this environment.

After all, the battle in which the emperor died happened too long ago.

Countless years are too far away from now.

"I'm not."

Li Hao shook his head.

"Knowing you're not, why are you here?"

The woman with the red tasseled spear was speechless and said with a frown.

At the same time, her domain spread out and scanned the surroundings.

The middle-aged soldier hurriedly said: "He came from the pseudo-realm of the Heavenly Disaster Immortal Emperor. Perhaps he is a descendant of the Immortal Emperor."

Li Hao knew that he said this intentionally to flatter himself, in order to make the woman with the red tasseled spear pay attention to him and perhaps even gain some benefits from him.

Hearing his words, the eyes of the woman with the red tasseled spear narrowed slightly and fell on Li Hao, looking at him carefully.

Soon, she saw the clue. This saint had also cultivated the eight extreme realms just like her!
He has even cultivated the most difficult realm of Immortality and the ultimate state of Daozu. This talent is quite rare.

Moreover, she also saw that Li Hao's soul was full of fresh vitality, and he was only sixty years old.

By this calculation, he is already a top-notch monster.

There was a bit more gentleness in her eyes, and she believed what the middle-aged soldier said. Except for the descendants of the Immortal Emperor, it was difficult for ordinary people to reach this level.

I didn't expect that the Heavenly Disaster Immortal Emperor actually had some bloodline left.

Although it was a very long time ago, the name of the Immortal Emperor suppressed an era. Even though he had fallen for countless years, he still left behind countless legends about him. Naturally, she was no stranger to him.

"There is a crack in the Xuanpin Gate. Did it come from there?"

The eyes of the woman with the red tasseled spear moved slightly, and she noticed the door at the end of the canyon, and a gleam of light appeared in her eyes.

She was ordered to come here, not only to clear out the ancient demons here, but also to explore the remains of the Immortal Emperor here.

Unexpectedly, I actually found the fake world left by the Immortal Emperor.

That is the world created by the Immortal Emperor. It is hard to say whether there are treasures left by the Immortal Emperor in it.

"Ah."

Li Hao nodded.

The woman with the red tasseled spear looked at Li Hao and said, "How many people like you are there in the Immortal Emperor Pseudo World?"

She asked this because she wanted to determine the situation of the Immortal Emperor's treasures left in this pseudo world.

Li Hao asked: "What do you mean, senior?"

"Practice, talent, and strength."

The woman with the red tasseled spear spoke very concisely.

"Not many, maybe three or two at most."

Li Hao said conservatively and modestly.

The eyes of the woman with the red tasseled spear flickered slightly. The number was so small? It seemed that the things left inside were not as rich as she had guessed.

But it's true. I heard that the battle that killed the emperor was extremely brutal. Many forces put all their efforts and invested all their assets into that battle, leaving no room for others.

"Hold on."

Her figure flashed, disappeared in front of the canyon, and appeared in front of the Xuanpin Gate.

She looked at the gate, raised her hand and touched it lightly, and immediately felt that it was covered by the laws of heaven and could not be forced through.

"To bless your descendants..."

The eyes of the woman with the red tasseled spear flashed, and then she turned back to Li Hao and the middle-aged soldier.

"I found out that the situation of the ancient demons here is different, so I rushed in first, intending to launch a surprise attack. Now I have to go back to reinforce the army."

The woman with the red tassel spear said to Li Hao and the middle-aged soldier, "Follow me. There are other ancient demon leaders around here. We may not be able to eliminate them all at once. You should leave with me first, otherwise other ancient demons will come and it will be bad for you."

When the middle-aged soldiers heard that they could finally leave this place, they showed surprise and excitement in their eyes, and even their eyes were a little moist.

He hurried to catch up, but found that Li Hao's breath behind him did not move.

He couldn't help but turn his head and saw Li Hao just standing there.

"brother."

The middle-aged soldier was slightly stunned. He seemed to see something from Li Hao's expression.

The woman with the red tasseled spear also frowned and stared at Li Hao. She saw the excitement of the middle-aged soldier and felt a little emotional in her heart.

But Li Hao's calmness surprised her a little.

"Senior, if you leave here, when can you come back?"

Li Hao asked.

He did not forget what the middle-aged soldier had said. If he cultivated to the level of a true immortal, he would never be able to return to the Land of Saints, unless he asked a strong man to unlock the Gate of Xuanpin, or he himself cultivated to an extremely strong strength.

"You can't bear it?"

The woman with the red tasseled spear was a little surprised. Being able to step into the real world was the dream of countless people who ascended from the pseudo world, but she actually wanted to stay in the pseudo world.

"There are remains of the Immortal Emperor's pseudo-world. Once I report this, they will definitely send a large army to suppress it again. But I can't guarantee the exact date. Maybe they will be back immediately, or maybe after several decades."

The woman with the red tassel spear said. After all, from what Li Hao had said, only two or three monsters like Li Hao were cultivated in the Immortal Emperor's ruins, which meant that the conditions were not good, and she would report this truthfully.

Upon hearing this, Li Hao immediately knew what could attract the other party.

He suddenly regretted that he had said too little before. If he had said a lot, the higher-ups behind the other party would probably have immediately sent people over to liberate the Land of Saints.

However, he will probably be held accountable for his lies.

"In that case, I'll wait for you here."

Li Hao said that although he also yearned for the real world and wanted to see how vast it was, compared to this strange place, he cared more about his friends in the Land of the Saints and his acquaintances in the human world.

Ren Qianqian, Emperor Yu, Feng Lao, Sword Master and so on.

Moreover, his cultivation method is different from that of ordinary people, so the loss is not that great.

Being a Saint in the Real World might be dangerous, but in the Land of Saints, with his current strength, he is absolutely safe.

"Brother, you..."

The middle-aged soldier was a little stunned. He didn't expect that Li Hao, who had fought with him for three years, would choose to stay here, in this place where he had spent countless years and had already become tired of.

He was silent for a while, and suddenly, he seemed to understand that Li Hao was fighting with him here just to accompany him and help him break out of this ancient battlefield.

With a complicated look in his eyes, he said to Li Hao: "Brother, we have been together for three years, but I still haven't told you my name. My name is Nangong Jian. Next time we meet, I will protect you!"

Li Hao laughed when he heard that. In the past three years, they had never asked each other's name, but they had fought side by side many times and had long been as sincere as close friends.

"no problem."

Li Hao agreed with a smile.

"What about you?"

Nangong Jian asked.

"Haotian."

Li Hao said.

"Okay, I remember."

Nangong Jian silently memorized the name in his heart, and then looked at Li Hao deeply.

"Are you sure you want to stay? There are wars everywhere outside right now. In the worst case scenario, it may take a long time before we have enough manpower to completely clear this place out."

The woman with the red tasseled spear spoke to Li Hao seriously.

She knew that in a pseudo world, after countless years, only two or three beings like Li Hao were cultivated, and most of them were extremely barren.

They had found other pseudo-realms of the Immortal Emperor before, some of which were already desolate, with not even a few saint-level beings, and the cultivation system was extremely simple.

"Well, I can wait."

Li Hao said.

Even in the real world, his cultivation speed would not increase much. Instead, he would face various dangers. It would be better for him to stay in the Land of Saints and consolidate his many arts and skills.

If the seven arts currently mastered were all cultivated to the tenth level, it would definitely be a huge improvement.

Moreover, no one in the Land of Saints can threaten him now.

Seeing that Li Hao was really not tempted, the woman with the red tasseled spear shook her head slightly, thinking that maybe Li Hao was unwilling to leave because he was a descendant of the Immortal Emperor and had special feelings for his ancestor's pseudo world.

She did not persuade him any further, and only said: "I will kill all the ancient demon's troops, and then send people to guard the Xuanpin Gate to prevent it from being consumed by some ancient demons' attacks. The vacant battlefield here may soon be occupied by other ancient demons. You should also return to the Immortal Emperor Pseudo Realm as soon as possible."

As for the Immortal Emperor bloodline, she still didn't want to see Li Hao get into trouble.

Having said that, she gave Nangong Jian a look and turned to leave.

"Brother, wait for me."

Nangong Jian said to Li Hao seriously.

He has reached the bottleneck of True Immortal. He believes that once he returns outside, he will be able to break through to become a True Lord soon. Then he will be able to come and pick up Li Hao in person.

Before leaving, Nangong Jian came to the bronze chariot and took out all the neatly piled bones inside.

"Brothers, I'm here to take you home!"

Nangong Jian looked at these skeletons, his eyes became moist and he felt a little agitated.

When the woman with the red tasseled spear saw so many bones, her expression changed slightly. Although she was eager to go back, she remained silent at this moment and did not urge Nangong Jian. She watched him carefully put all the bones into his own space.

"Let's go."

Nangong Jian collected the bones, left the bronze chariot behind, and said to the woman with the red tasseled spear.

Then he turned around and took one last look at Li Hao.

Li Hao waved goodbye to him.

Soon, Nangong Jian followed the woman with the red tasseled spear, and the two of them disappeared from Li Hao's sight in the blink of an eye.

Before leaving, Nangong Jian took a look at the minced meat of the ancient demon leader and gave Li Hao a look. He did not tell Li Hao that he could cook ancient demons, as he was keeping it in mind.

He knew how shocking this method was. If it was exposed, Li Hao would be a big shot if he had a powerful force behind him. However, if he didn't have a powerful force behind him, he would probably become a puppet pawn to be used!
When they left, the place suddenly seemed a little desolate.

Li Hao looked at the silent earth and the gray sky. This was the scenery that Nangong Jian had felt for countless years.

He sighed softly, came to the broken flesh of the ancient demon leader, and collected all the broken flesh into the space of heaven and earth.

The ancient demon's flesh contained waves of soul power. Although it was dead, Li Hao could feel the extremely strong power inside.

With his current cooking skills, he may not be able to cook it.

Li Hao tried to stab the broken flesh with the incomplete immortal weapon in his hand, but found that it was like a wooden sword stabbing into a rock, and it couldn't even leave a wound.

At this time, Li Hao also felt the horror of the woman with the red tassel spear. She was able to kill the ancient demon leader in just a few minutes.

After collecting these pieces of meat and temporarily throwing them into the space of heaven and earth, Li Hao did not listen to the words of the woman with the red tasseled spear and immediately return to the Xuanpin Gate. Instead, he drove the bronze chariot into the canyon and stayed in front of the Xuanpin Gate.

He planned to wait here until the people sent by the other party to guard the place arrived before leaving. If any ancient demons were missed and destroyed the Xuanpin Gate, he could also kill them.

The fact that this door has stood for countless years is also related to Nangong Jian. It was he who blocked the invasion of some ancient demons outside the canyon.

Otherwise, due to the ancient demon's attacks day and night, the Xuanpin Gate would soon lose its effect.

He stayed not far from the Xuanpin Gate, so that if the ancient demon leader arrived, he could return to the Land of Saints in time.

To this end, Li Hao buried the hidden line.

His thread-laying skills became more and more sophisticated. Li Hao spent a lot of time studying them. These appearances and disappearances could not cause any harm to the Ancient Demon Leader, but they might serve as a warning to himself.

time flies.

After the woman with the red tasseled spear took Nangong Jian away, everything outside the canyon became calm and no other ancient demons arrived.

With the death of the ancient demon leader, perhaps this ancient road has been temporarily cleared.

Li Hao reflected his own incarnation and quietly sneaked out of the canyon. He explored the ancient demon territories and found that the ancient demon territories that he and Nangong Jian had not wiped out were all dead silent, and the corpses of ancient demons were everywhere.

I think it was the woman with the red tasseled spear who killed him before she left.

Li Hao was so overjoyed to see so many corpses of ancient demons that he used his avatar to carry them back.

So he cooked and ate and drank outside the Xuanpin Gate every day, and in his spare time he would bury hidden threads and play with carving.

Half a year passed in a flash.

Li Hao couldn't help but feel worried before the person sent by the woman with the red tassel spear came to take over the guard. The other party had cleared out the ancient road, so they should have been able to send people to guard it soon. But now several months have passed and no one has been seen. Could something unexpected happen when they left?
Li Hao couldn't help but worry about Nangong Jian's situation, but since he was here, there was no point except worrying about it, so he had to shift his attention elsewhere.

In the past six months, Li Hao has eaten nearly two hundred ancient demons alone. The power of his soul has become stronger, and the immortal power accumulated in his body has become more powerful.

Under the ultimate immortalization, these immortal powers were released and converted into energy of heaven and earth. Li Hao felt that he could easily kill the third-order ancient demon. Even without relying on his soul and remaining soldiers, just pouring this power into the Eternal Dao Realm, he could kill it alive with the Dao Realm.

Time was long, and Li Hao waited another half a year, during which more than a hundred golden veins condensed in his body.

Li Hao estimated that if he continued to eat for another two years, he would be able to condense the third piece of his primordial spirit's divine bone.

And he still had a lot of ancient demon corpses in his hands. If he ate them all, Li Hao felt that he could at least condense a fourth divine bone, or even a fifth one.

Every piece of divine bone increased Li Hao's spiritual power dramatically, almost doubling it.

With the magic method of controlling objects taught to him by Nangong Jian, his speed of controlling objects is now incredibly fast, even faster than that of the Guixu realm!

In the same state, one can control and suppress objects with just a thought.

After living alone here for a year, Li Hao already missed the Land of All Saints and wanted to go back, but the person that the woman with the red tasseled spear said was sent to guard the place was nowhere to be seen.

Li Hao was a little upset, and her intuition told her that something had happened to the other party.

bass!
One day, Li Hao, who was having a meal, suddenly felt that an invisible line disappeared. Some kind of power fluctuation broke the invisible line.

His eyes focused, and he put away the delicacy he had just prepared. At the same time, he moved closer to the Gate of Xuanpin, restrained his breath, quietly released his spiritual sense, and looked carefully.

Accompanied by a whistling sound, traces of an ancient demon suddenly appeared above the canyon.

This ancient demon is several hundred feet in size and is a third-level ancient demon.

Li Hao's expression changed slightly, and he hid behind a rock without showing up.

But this ancient demon seemed to see the Xuanpin Gate, and suddenly let out a surprised growl and swooped over.

Soon, it landed in front of the Gate of Xuanpin.

Its eyes immediately noticed the gap in the pattern, which made it excited.

It immediately stepped forward and tried to explore through the gap.

At this moment, a sharp cold light suddenly came.

The ancient demon reacted immediately and screamed in shock, but the sound stopped abruptly just as it came out.

The speed of the remaining soldiers was too fast, and their physical bodies were killed instantly. Then their souls were suppressed, and their souls were directly crushed and disintegrated.

The third-level ancient demon could be easily killed by Li Hao.

"Damn it, is he wandering here from somewhere else? Could it be that the war outside has subsided?"

Li Hao walked out from behind the rock with a gloomy look on his face. All the territories of the ancient demons were now dead silent, so this ancient demon could only be from outside.

The fact that the other party wandered here instead of rushing to the front line seemed to indicate that the previous war might not need it and had already subsided.

"Through this gap, a second-level ancient demon cannot enter, but a third-level ancient demon can sneak in. Previously, it was all thanks to Nangong Jian who was guarding outside the canyon. Now that he is gone, and the female general hasn't sent anyone over, there will be ancient demons coming here at any time and sneaking in through this gap."

Li Hao frowned. He wanted to go back. He couldn't wait for the people sent by the other party to guard the place. He felt a little bored here.

He wanted to go back to fish, and find someone to play chess with, but if he went back now, this gap would be exposed. Once a third-level ancient demon came and entered the pseudo-world, it would inevitably bring disaster.

Especially if the news from here is brought out, if the ancient demon sends hundreds of third-level ancient demons to invade, it will be an unimaginable disaster for the Land of Saints!
Li Hao sat back in his previous place, frowning. Thinking of these things, he couldn't help feeling a little worried, but he still quickly took out the freshly prepared delicacies. Delicious food should not be wasted.

After finishing the meal, Li Hao's mood improved a little. He stared at the gap and began to study the patterns on it.

The best way is to repair this gap.

But if you want to repair it, it would be as difficult as becoming a true immortal.

After all, this Xuanpin Gate was the work of the Immortal Emperor, and everything on it was constructed by him. Although countless years have passed and it has been severely worn out, the fact that it has been able to stand until now is enough to show that it is not simple.

time flies.

In the following days, apart from eating and drinking, Li Hao studied the patterns on the Xuanpin Gate. When he got tired of studying, he would carve to relax.

Now, his carvings have vaguely touched the ninth level of the state of mind, and what he carves out contains extraordinary artistic conception.
