The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 426: Eternal Dao Heart, Nine Rings of Heaven and Earth

Along with the exciting ringing of the bell, many people suddenly opened their eyes and looked at the young man in front of the huge bell of heaven and earth.

That young man used his own Dao Heart to stir the great bell of heaven and earth, and actually struck out the fourth sound. Was it a Heaven-level Dao Heart? !

The expressions on many people's faces were no longer calm, and their eyes were slightly staring.

"Heavenly Dao Heart, it seems that he has great ambitions in his heart!"

"To be determined to establish a divine dynasty and protect the people is only a mysterious Dao heart. To preach for thousands of years is only an earth-level Dao heart. We are on par with heaven and earth and determined to pursue the eternal immortal path. Only then can we condense a heaven-level Dao heart. Only eternity is the ultimate."

Luo Sheng, Dong Dao, Chen Baoyu and others who had talked with Li Hao before all had solemn eyes. They did not expect that this newcomer actually had a heavenly Taoist heart, which was one level higher than they had before. This meant that while they were still pursuing the mission of preaching through the ages and educating the people, the other party had already determined to pursue the eternal immortal path and eternal immortality!

They all vaguely felt that this newcomer would be a strong competitor in the future.

That's right, when they came here, the Immortal Emperor's lineage was right in front of them. Although they seemed friendly to each other on the surface, they were secretly competing with each other behind their backs. After all, this was the Immortal Emperor's lineage, and only one person could inherit it!
The rest are all competitors. With such temptation before their eyes, some people tried to frame other saints who behaved evilly in the early days, but after being taught a lesson by Master Wang, no one dared to do so anymore and they could only work hard to improve themselves.

Just when many people memorized Li Hao's appearance in their hearts, suddenly, the huge bell of heaven and earth trembled again, and then the fifth bell sounded!
Ding——!!

The sound of the bell, like the evening drum and the morning bell, shook everyone's heart.

Everyone who was staring had their eyes darkened and a hint of horror appeared on their faces. What was going on?

The fifth bell?
The sky and earth are dark yellow, and the four bell sounds are already the ultimate, how can there be a fifth sound? !
While everyone was shocked and stunned, Wang Lao, who was standing not far away on the grass slope, was also slightly stunned. Then his eyes suddenly lit up and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

The fifth bell rings? He knows that the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang corresponds to the fourth level of Dao Heart, but the Heavenly Dao Heart is not the top level.

The inheritance of the immortal way was collected from all the heavens and sealed here. No one knew that behind the universe, there was also the heart of chaos, the heart of eternity, and the supreme heart of the emperor of heaven, which was mastered only by the Immortal Emperor!
If the Heavenly Dao Heart is a Dao Heart that is higher than the heaven and earth, then the Chaos Dao Heart is one that can transcend the long river of time, condense the mysteries of heaven and earth, and have the belief to open up the world.

The eternal Tao heart is not about the pursuit of immortality. The pursuit itself is something for the weak. The eternal Tao heart has no pursuit. It condenses eternity into a moment. Oneself is eternity, and the heart itself is satisfied. It controls everything and looks directly at everything. It is the supreme ruler of heaven and earth!
As for the Heavenly Dao Emperor's Heart that only the Immortal Emperor possesses, Wang Lao was not clear about it. That was a state of mind that he could not imagine.

As everyone was astonished, the huge bell of heaven and earth continued to vibrate, and the sixth bell rang out.

Wang Lao stroked his beard, smiled and nodded repeatedly. The loud bell of heaven and earth rang four times, corresponding to the darkness of heaven and earth.

And the Chaos Dao Heart will ring three times in a row after the fourth ring, which is seven times!
As for the Eternal Dao Heart, it is ten rings!
The heart of the Emperor of Heaven cannot be tested by the mighty bell of heaven and earth, and nothing in the world can prove it.

Soon, the Heaven and Earth Bell rang seven times. Everyone was somewhat numb and turned to look at Wang Lao in shock. At this moment, they even suspected that there was something wrong with this instrument. It was incredible to surpass the Heavenly Dao Heart, but it rang three times in a row, crossing three levels? Is this possible? They couldn't imagine it.

"Don't be surprised. This is the Dao Heart of Chaos, which can strike the bell of heaven and earth seven times."

Mr. Wang felt the incredulous looks from the crowd and smiled comfortingly.

After hearing what Master Wang said, everyone was shocked and confused. They had never heard of it before, but it was obvious that this surpassed the Heavenly Level Dao Heart and was a state of mind that they could not understand.

As the echoes of the seventh bell ended, Li Hao was a little surprised, but at this moment, the eighth bell rang.

This time, the smile on Wang Lao's face suddenly disappeared, his eyes fixed on the young man's back.

Dang! !

Soon, the ninth bell rang, deafeningly, and echoed outside the entire Tianzhao Palace.

Everyone was a little confused and looked at Wang Lao.

I just said that the Chaos Dao Heart is seven rings, what about now?

Wang Lao stared at Li Hao's back without saying anything. As the echoes of the nine rings gradually faded away, this time, the huge bell of heaven and earth seemed to slowly calm down and no longer vibrate. The waves transmitted from it also slowly dissipated.

The great bell of heaven and earth stopped beating.

It returned to its original state, hovering in the void.

Behind Li Hao, there was also deathly silence.

The huge bell rang nine times. Nine is the highest number in the world, which is why the emperor calls himself the Supreme Being.

Li Hao actually achieved the ultimate, which was beyond their understanding.

"I, did I hear it right?"

"Is this a dream? Nine rings? Elder Wang said that the Chaos Dao Heart has seven rings. What does this mean..."

"How high is his righteousness?"

There was shock in everyone's eyes. This newcomer gave them a huge shock, something they had never experienced before.

Wang Lao also came back to his senses at this time. He stared at Li Hao deeply, with a hint of excitement in his eyes. He felt vaguely in his heart that the person he had been waiting for countless years seemed to have finally appeared.

Nine rings, which means that Li Hao's Dao heart is an eternal Dao heart. Although it has not yet reached perfection, only a few people have such a Dao heart, even the Immortal King.

Wang Lao once served beside the Immortal Emperor and knew a secret. Although the Dao heart cannot affect the actual combat power and realm too much, when one reaches some bottleneck in cultivation, the higher the Dao heart, the faster the breakthrough. This is an invisible influence!
Moreover, if one wants to reach the supreme imperial throne, one must surpass the Eternal Heart of Tao. This is the first threshold!
"senior."

Li Hao had returned to Wang Lao at this time. When passing by, he saw the shocked eyes of Luo Sheng, Chen Baoyu and others on the cushion. Combined with what they said before, he immediately knew that he might have made a big noise and attracted some attention.

He smiled bitterly in his heart. This was not what he wanted. He had just arrived here and did not want to attract other people's attention too early.

"What is my situation?"

Li Hao asked Wang Lao puzzledly.

The Heaven and Earth should have ended with four rings, but it ended with nine rings, surpassing the Heavenly Grade Dao Heart by five levels. This is a bit exaggerated and outrageous.

Wang Lao retracted his thoughts, looked at Li Hao's puzzled expression, and showed a full smile of joy on his face. He said: "Don't be too surprised, kid. The Heavenly Dao Heart is just the starting point for becoming an immortal. Above it are the Chaos Dao Heart and the Eternal Dao Heart. You are currently the Eternal Dao Heart."

As he spoke, he explained again the Dao Heart and the sound of the great bell of heaven and earth.

Everyone on the cushions pricked up their ears and listened. When they heard what Master Wang said, they all suddenly understood. It seemed that he was only two levels beyond the Heavenly Level Dao Heart.

However, this is also in contrast to the previous fantasies. If you think about it carefully, this is a very scary thing.

"Chaos Dao Heart, Eternal Dao Heart!"

"This is the first time I've heard of this. Mr. Wang has never told me about this before."

"I guess they think it's impossible for us to achieve that. After all, there are only a few people who have Heavenly Dao Hearts when they first arrive here. I wonder what kind of state of mind a Chaos Dao Heart is. Isn't it enough to be on par with heaven and earth?"

"Eternal Dao Heart, could it be the pursuit of eternity? If so, then it seems to be no different from the Heavenly Dao Heart."

Everyone was talking, their eyes fixed on the young man, temporarily putting aside the cultivation they had been thinking about previously.

When Master Wang heard the discussions of the crowd and saw their complicated expressions, he knew that this matter had a great impact on them. If he didn't explain it clearly to these little guys, their distracting thoughts would affect their future practice.

He was in a very good mood and said with a smile: "This eternal Dao Heart is not about pursuing eternity, but the heart is already eternal! You can slowly understand the difference between the two. However, for you, the most important thing at the moment is to work hard to pass the test. Dao Heart is just a threshold, which is too far away from you."

His words were meant to comfort and persuade, but to everyone's ears, they sounded a little unpleasant.

Obviously, Mr. Wang has already determined that it is impossible for them to achieve it, and there is no point in thinking about it, it is a waste of time.

"The heart is eternal..."

The eyes of the Shepherd Saint flickered and he murmured to himself, "What is eternity?"

The other saints were also lost in thought. Elder Wang ignored them and said to Li Hao, "Come here. I will teach you the immortal method. In your situation, you don't need to consider the immortal method. This ninth-level mixed source divine blood is fixed and cannot be improved. Even if you practice with the immortal method, you can't cultivate it. You will only need to use your physical body during the second test."

When he returned to the thatched cottage, he was in no mood to sit on the master's chair and rock, and said to Li Hao:
"With your spiritual power, you should be able to master the Yama Immortal Technique very quickly."

Li Hao nodded and said, "Yan Luo and Wan Dao, I want to try both."

His physical body is not here, so he cannot practice the immortal magic. However, he can first figure out Yan Luo and Wan Dao, and then add the immortal magic to the panel. When he has a chance to leave this place, he can use it with his physical body.

"Oh."

When Wang Lao heard what Li Hao said, he did not blame him for being careless. Instead, he said with interest: "It seems that you are very confident in your skills. What kind of Taoism do you practice?"

"kendo."

Li Hao said.

"Is there any sacrifice?"

Wang Lao asked.

"Ah."

Li Hao nodded.

Old Wang laughed. It was no wonder that he was so confident since he could offer sacrifices to the Tao. However, compared with Li Hao's soul, even offering sacrifices to the Tao was still a bit of a stretch.

But he did not try to persuade or stop him. After all, being able to offer sacrifices to the Tao was enough to show that Li Hao had a very high talent in swordsmanship, and there was nothing wrong with choosing the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Technique.

"You decide for yourself. If you practice both, I have no doubt that you can master them, but your speed of mastering them will be slow. You came later than them, but here there is no difference between early and late, and it will not be calculated based on the time of practice. Whoever passes the three tests first can go to the Tianhua Palace and receive the test of being a registered disciple of the Immortal Emperor."

Wang Lao said: "The one who is making the most progress is already at the second step, and will soon come out. You have to hurry up."

Li Hao nodded slightly, knowing what was going on.

Mu Sheng, Ming Sheng and others in the distance also heard what Wang Lao said, and their eyes were complicated, but at the same time, they withdrew their thoughts and realized that this newcomer was extremely unusual, and felt a strong sense of urgency from Li Hao.

If he doesn't continue to speed up, he will probably be overtaken by this new guy.

This is the Taoist tradition of the Immortal Emperor. Even if one only obtains the status of a registered disciple for the time being, after leaving this place and heading to the real world, one can become an extremely dazzling existence.

Soon, they all closed their eyes, forced themselves to calm down, put aside all distracting thoughts, and immerse their minds again in their previous contemplation.

Luo Sheng, Dong Dao and others also felt the urgency, glanced at Li Hao, and then plunged into practice.

Although they are still at the first step, no one is willing to give up until the last moment.

In front of the thatched cottage, Wang Lao raised his hand and touched Li Hao's forehead, saying: "I will first teach you the Yanluo Immortal Method, which is an immortal method specifically for condensing the primordial spirit. It also includes three primordial spirit combat methods, which are specifically for killing evil spirits and ancient demons!" Li Hao suddenly felt the magnificent information reflected in his memory, as if it was something he had already mastered and just suddenly recalled.

There are three levels of Yama's fighting method, but Master Wang only taught the first level.

If you can cultivate the first level to perfection, you will pass.

This first level has three kinds of soul fighting methods, namely "Yan Luo's Outer Image", "Yan Luo's Blade" and "Earth Luo Shield Method"!
The first two are offensive tactics, and the third is defensive, which can resist the opponent's attack in the confrontation of souls.

Li Hao absorbed things very quickly. His comprehension of the tenth level of the Dao of Control and many of his understandings all reached parallel lines. Those below the parallel lines could be easily absorbed and understood.

He quickly absorbed the training methods for the three combat strategies.

"This is the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Technique. You can choose the Sword Dao. If you can break through the Ten Thousand Daos with the Sword Dao and achieve perfection, you will pass the level."

As Master Wang spoke, another set of magic skills came from his fingertips.

Li Hao slowly accepted the myriad immortal techniques including swords, axes, guns, etc. He only needed to choose one and practice it to perfection.

Li Hao chose the sword technique. He quickly absorbed and understood his insights of the tenth level of sword technique.

He didn't rush to open the panel to check, but just nodded and looked at the old Taoist:

"If we practice, do we do it on the futon over there?"

"Yes, that cushion is made from the bark of the Enlightenment Tree. It can increase your chances of sudden enlightenment."

Wang Lao said to Li Hao: "Remember not to be greedy."

But after saying this, he smiled silently again and shook his head. With Jiu Xiang's eternal Tao heart, he would never be the kind of person who would be greedy.

Li Hao nodded and pretended to come to the cushion.

With the arrival of Li Hao, many saints who had calmed down heard Li Hao's footsteps, felt his breath, and opened their eyes to look at Li Hao.

But he soon frowned, cursed himself, and continued to close his eyes and meditate, putting aside all distracting thoughts.

Li Hao found a cushion to sit on, then looked around and saw that the saints around him were practicing hard with their eyes closed. He smiled slightly and called up the panel to check.

Soon, among the many techniques on the panel, I found the two newly included techniques:

Immortal Technique: Yama·Kuji (Perfection of True Meaning)

Immortal combat skills: Yanluo's external image (true meaning is perfect), Yan's blade (true meaning is perfect), Diluo shield method (true meaning is perfect)

Seeing the display, Li Hao smiled. Combining the three combat methods he had mastered in his mind, as if he had been using them for hundreds of years, he was already extremely familiar with them. All he had to do was to display them himself.

"This Yama Immortal Technique has three levels. The first level is withering and solitude. The tenth stage of the Imperial Dao can actually directly make its true meaning complete. If it breaks through perfection, it will be the 'origin' level."

The true meaning, origin, ultimate.

These are the three levels of the path to immortality, and each level is divided into entry and perfection.

Li Hao's previous tenth level of swordsmanship meant that he had mastered the most basic Great Dream Nine Abyss sword technique, the Immortal's Guidance, to the level of its origin. Its power increased several times and was extremely terrifying.

"If you just practice the Dao of Offering, you may not be able to cultivate to perfection. The main thing is the ten stages of the panel. Not only the Dao of Offering, but also all the insights of the ten stages must be absorbed. If you practice on your own, it will take countless years."

Li Hao's eyes flickered. With his comprehension of the tenth stage of the Dao of Control, he could only master the first stage of the Yama Immortal Technique, 'Withering Silence', to the level of true perfection, but not the level of origin. This was only the first stage of this immortal technique, which showed how high the grade of the complete immortal technique was. If it were thrown into the real world, it would most likely be a very famous immortal technique.

Immediately afterwards, Li Hao looked at the Wan Dao Immortal Techniques again.

Wandao Immortal Law·Sword Dao (True Meaning Perfection)
Just as he wished, he also reached the level of true perfection.

If he showed it to Master Wang now, he should be able to proceed directly to the second step of the test.

However, Li Hao was not in a hurry. The second test would definitely be more difficult than the first one, so he would go and understand it first.

His tenth stage of the Way of Imperial Control and tenth stage of the Way of Sword were the accumulation of past experience. If the second and third tests were more difficult, and tenth stage of the Way of Sword and tenth stage of the Way of Imperial Control were not enough, he would have to practice hard and find a way to break through the tenth stage bottleneck of the Ways of Painting, Cooking and Sculpture.

I just don't know if I can become a true immortal directly if I add points to level eleven.

After thinking about it, Li Hao left the futon and came to the thatched cottage.

"Why, do you find it difficult?"

Wang Lao was sitting in a rocking chair, and when he saw Li Hao coming over so quickly, he couldn't help but chuckle and said:

"This is an immortal technique, different from what you've practiced before. It's normal for you to find it difficult. Although I'm optimistic about you, I can't break the rules. I can only teach you the immortal technique, and the rest is up to you to figure out on your own. I can't influence or control these."

What he said was very clear. If he was biased and gave special treatment to those who were meditating, then he would be the one to designate the registered disciples, and the test left by the Immortal Emperor would be meaningless.

Li Hao saw that he misunderstood, so he didn't explain, but just asked curiously:

"Senior, I just want to ask, what is the second step of the test?"

Wang Lao raised his eyebrows. If it were someone else, he would think that they were a bit too ambitious. They had just comprehended the first step and were already thinking about the second step.

However, he did not think so about Li Hao's previous Taoism. He only thought that Li Hao had other ideas and said:

"This first test is to test your aptitude for understanding. The second test is the same. After all, if you want to become the Immortal Emperor's registered disciple, you must have extraordinary understanding. Otherwise, if you don't have enough aptitude for understanding, you won't be able to comprehend those emperor-level immortal arts that shake the real world. It's like reading a heavenly book when you have them in front of you."

"This second test is to test your practical skills. I will copy you, inherit all the skills you have mastered, and double your strength!"

He smiled and said, "That is to say, you must defeat yourself who is twice as strong as yourself!"

Li Hao was stunned, a little surprised, and couldn't help but ask: "Same in every aspect? And twice as strong?"

"That's right. Faced with an invincible absolute power gap in all aspects, let's see how you can resolve this crisis and come up with quick wits in desperate battles!" said Old Wang.

Li Hao was speechless. This test was too abnormal.

"You are only taking the test of being a registered disciple, which is not that difficult. Back then, the true disciples of the Immortal Emperor had a three-fold difference in strength. That was truly hopeless. Basically, they were killed instantly after fighting!"

Wang Lao said with a smile.

Li Hao was somewhat speechless. Defeating a person with three times the strength? This was indeed impossible.

"What about the third test?" Li Hao couldn't help but feel curious.

Wang Lao smiled and said, "The third test is still about understanding!"

"You need to break through and become a True Immortal, condense the Immortal Seal, and prove your own Immortal Path with the heaven and earth. In addition, you must reach the Three Seals Immortal Path. This is the minimum requirement. Compared with the previous tests of the Immortal Emperor's registered disciples, the conditions have been relaxed now. There is no time limit. In the past, it must be completed within 3,000 years, which is difficult."

Although Li Hao was mentally prepared, he was still shocked.

The third test actually requires one to become a true immortal!
"What is the Three Seals Immortal Way?" Li Hao asked.

Wang Lao smiled and said, "I will tell you in detail when you pass the second test."

Seeing this, Li Hao did not ask any more questions, but just sighed in his heart. He did not expect that these three tests were so difficult. From what the other party said, it was obvious that it was not enough to just become a true immortal, but one also had to be the best among them.

This also means that even if he passes the first test now, it will be meaningless because he has never tried the second test and has no confidence.

The third one requires studying painting techniques.

Li Hao did not delay any longer. The gap outside could send more ancient demons from the True Fairyland in at any time. Moreover, Elder Feng and the others would probably be heartbroken upon hearing the news of his death. He had to go back as soon as possible.

He returned to the cushion, opened the space between heaven and earth, and took out the drawing board from it. He had to choose one of the three ten-stage skills he had currently mastered, and could not try his hand at all.

While searching for drawing boards and other materials, Li Hao saw the Huayou Order in the space of heaven and earth. He suddenly had an idea and, thinking of giving it a try, he immersed his consciousness into the Huayou Order.

But soon, a barrier appeared, blocking his consciousness.

"Flower Tour Order?"

At this moment, a surprised voice came from the side.

Li Hao turned his head and saw a young man with long flowing hair, wearing a loose long gown, and a butterfly flower ornament on his head. He was looking at the Huayou Order in his hand in surprise.

"How come you have the Flower Tour Order?"

Next to her, another female saint said.

She had a rosy face, elegant manners, and her clothes were trimmed with gold thread, making her look quite luxurious.

"Do you recognize it?"

When Li Hao saw these two people, his heart suddenly moved and he thought of what Chandan had said.

"We made this. Are you from the Synchronized Paralympics?"

The handsome young man wearing the butterfly flower ornament asked gently.

"So you two are the Flower Saint and the Travel Saint."

Li Hao suddenly realized that the two saints who founded the Flower Parade, as Chandan said, had long disappeared and were nowhere to be found. Even though the heavens were so bustling before, they were not seen. He did not expect that they would come here.

“The Synchronized Swimming Association still exists.”

The female saint looked surprised, then showed joy and a smile, and said to Li Hao: "I am Yousheng, what is your name?"

Before Li Hao arrived, the two of them were meditating. It was not until Li Hao made the Heaven and Earth Bell ring nine times that they noticed each other, but they had no intention of chatting and making friends. It was not until this moment that Li Hao took out the Flower Tour Order that they sensed this familiar aura and felt a sudden liking for Li Hao and wanted to get close to him.

Li Hao was stunned. He thought the young man was the Wandering Saint, but... he was the Flower Saint?
