The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 449: Yanchu Immortal Dynasty, Jianyuan

Li Hao was unwilling, and Yue Xi couldn't force him. She just felt that Li Hao was evading and looking down on her. She was secretly competing with him in her heart. She knew that she would naturally have another chance to compete with Li Hao when she arrived at Dameng Jiuyuan.

Dameng Jiuyuan is not far from Wenxin Futu City, and the round trip only takes three days.

On the way, Li Hao and Yue Xi also learned the name of the old man with rosacea, who was Li Tiemu, the elder Jianyuan of Dameng Jiuyuan.

On the way, Li Tiemu asked Li Hao, Lin Yufeng and Yue Xi about their origins. He already knew something about Yue Xi, but Li Hao and Lin Yufeng were obviously companions, but he couldn't tell where they came from.

Yuexi only said that she was temporarily living in the nearby Nanyang City and was a member of a family that brought disaster to the world.

Many forces in the real world keep their distance from this clan, unwilling to be involved in the unknown.

Li Hao said that he came from a faraway place, had just arrived and was not familiar with the place.

Seeing that Li Hao was unwilling to reveal the details, Li Tiemu did not press for further questions and only said:
"Once you enter my Great Dream Nine Abyss, you are my Great Dream Nine Abyss's disciple. No matter where you come from, you will always have the Great Dream Nine Abyss as your escape route. Similarly, you must not kill your own clan members. When you return to the clan to become my disciple, you must keep this in mind."

Li Hao and Yue Xi both agreed to this.

Li Hao asked him about the situation in the real world. At present, they knew nothing about the real world, including its forces and cities.

Seeing that Li Hao was acting seriously, Li Tiemu also chatted with him and told him in detail as if Li Hao was a stranger:

"I will assume that you are from the Western Region. You should know the four regions of the True Realm. The Eastern Region is governed by the Ancestral Dragon King Court, the Southern Region is governed by the Heavenly Palace Supreme, the Northern Region is the world of the Demon Emperor Palace, where there are many monsters and all kinds of races fighting against each other, and the Western Region is the Red Burning Emperor Territory, a place where many forces are mixed, including immortals, demons, monsters, gods, monsters, and spirits."

"In the Southern Region, the territory is the same as that of the Western Region. I heard that it is hundreds of millions of miles long and wide. Even if it is an Immortal King traveling by air, it will take a year to reach the border."

"This is the border of the Southern Region, close to the ancient battlefield 'Emperor's Abyss'. Do you know Emperor's Abyss?"

Li Tiemu suddenly asked.

Li Hao's heart moved. They came from the ancient battlefield, but he didn't know whether they were the Emperor Yuan mentioned by the other party.

Without waiting for his answer, Yue Xi said calmly: "Yes, that is the place where the great emperor fell a hundred thousand years ago. I heard that the Heavenly Palace cleared it not long ago. I went there once. Bones piled up like a forest, corpses of ancient demons were scattered all over the ground, real treasures were broken into mud, and there were countless abandoned immortal weapons and domain tools, as well as immortal forbidden emperor tools that had long been broken and dim..."

When Li Hao and Lin Yufeng heard her words, they immediately knew that this was most likely the ancient battlefield they were coming to.

The usual casual and slightly vulgar smile on Li Tiemu's face disappeared at this moment. He showed a rare silence. He waited for Yue Xi to finish speaking before saying quietly:
"That's right. That battle was extremely brutal and caused great damage to the vitality of the True Realm. In the past, the nine Immortal Emperors ruled the four realms and the original True Realm, but more than half of them died in that battle!"

"To this day, there is still no emperor in the Northern Territory, and many quasi-emperors are fighting for the throne. The Northern Territory is now the most chaotic place. In addition to the rampant ancient demons, various forces are also fighting for the supreme throne and want to unify the Northern Territory..."

As he spoke, he seemed to feel that the conversation had gone a bit too far, so he shook his head slightly and said to Li Hao:

"What were we talking about before, Di Yuan, right? Today, the territory of the Southern Region has shrunk a lot compared to the past. In the border areas, humans are seldom seen. This Wenxin Futu City is already considered a relatively marginal area. Towards the center, there are many Tianzongs and Immortal Dynasties."

Li Hao asked: "Which force is stronger than Tianyi Sect?"

"Ancient Immortal Dynasty!"

Li Tiemu said: "My Great Dream of Nine Abysses is in the Yanchu Immortal Dynasty, one of the seven ancient immortal dynasties in the southern region. The Wanshan Sword Tower is also in this place. To be precise, the area we are in now is within the territory of the Yanchu Immortal Dynasty."

"What is that palace?"

"The Heavenly Palace is governed by the Supreme Immortal Emperor, who is above the ancient Immortal Dynasty. The Immortal Emperor rules a region, and all the Immortal Dynasties bow down to him."

Li Tiemu said.

His expression was a little solemn, and there seemed to be some deep meaning in his eyes.

Following Li Tiemu's introduction, a rough outline of the real world suddenly emerged in Li Hao's mind.

After three days' journey, they were teleported out of Wenxin Futu City and passed through several cities in succession. Some of these cities were extremely old and dilapidated, with incomplete large formations outside. According to what Li Tiemu said, these were all large cities that were once rushed to the forefront of the battlefield, but were now abandoned here.

"arrive."

Li Tiemu said.

They were teleported out of an immortal city and came to a place in the void. There was a colorful avenue where immortal power was condensed. Stepping on it seemed that the body would be driven forward by itself without consuming immortal power.

And in front of us is a continent as big as a turtle, floating in the void, bulging up and down.

There is a fairy formation covering the continent, isolating the meteorites outside.

Liucai Avenue leads to the mainland. When approaching, Li Hao felt the steaming heat emanating from the fairy formation on the mainland, which seemed to evaporate him directly.

Li Tiemu raised his hand and released a stream of magical power, which instantly opened up a passage. The greenery and mountains and rivers on the continent immediately appeared like a painting.

"This is where my Great Dream Nine Abysses is."

Li Tiemu said.

Li Hao was shocked. Is this the Tianzong power in the real world? The whole world is just one sect.

Moreover, the area of ​​this continent seems to be even vaster than the small world in the heavens.

"My Great Dream Nine Abyss has nine branches, which is also the origin of the Nine Abyss. In the past, the founder of the sect had a close relationship with the Emperor, and was taught nine unique skills by the Emperor, and established the Great Dream Nine Abyss Sect."

Li Tiemu said: "You two are sword cultivators, so you can worship Jian Yuan. I also happen to be Jian Yuan. As for you..."

He looked at Lin Yufeng and said, "You said you are good at using guns. It just so happens that my Dameng Jiuyuan also has the Gunyuan, which is also the lineage with the most disciples in Jiuyuan."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yufeng glanced at Li Hao.

Li Hao patted his shoulder and said, "I'll let you ride the wind and fly on your own."

Lin Yufeng understood what Li Hao meant and nodded vigorously.

"I'll take you to Qiang Yuan first, and say hello to Old Man Tao over there. You can become his disciple."

Li Tiemu said.

Then he took Li Hao and others and flew towards the east side of the continent.

Countless mountains, rivers, green plains and forests flew by under your feet. In a gust of lightning-fast movement, in a moment you can see a towering and steep mountain standing on the earth, with its peak reaching into the clouds. Countless pavilions were built against the mountain, and the environment was beautiful like a fairyland.

Li Hao had amazing eyesight. He could see many people fighting with guns in many martial arts training grounds in the mountains, emitting bursts of divine light and magical power.

When they arrived, a figure flew out of the mountain.

When Li Tiemu saw this, his face lit up with a smile as bright as a flower, and he said, "Lao Tao, here, I'll send the genius over for you."

"Hmph, genius, would you be so kind as to send me here? It's good enough that you didn't persuade me to change to swordsmanship."

The other party obviously knew Li Tiemu's nature very well and snorted coldly without any courtesy.

Li Tiemu smiled as if he was worthless and said, "You are hurting my feelings by saying that."

"Do we have feelings for each other?"

The other party asked back.

Li Hao saw that the old man was wearing a peach-colored robe with peach blossoms on it, which looked a little crimson. His sleeves were extremely wide and swung back and forth.

"Five pounds, one price."

Tao Chunfeng said with a cold face.

Li Tiemu obviously understood what he meant. He said helplessly, "Three catties? This is very difficult to brew. One catty takes ten thousand years."

When Tao Chunfeng heard this, he turned around and left without looking back.

"Okay, okay, five pounds is five pounds, you old ghost."

Li Tiemu waved hurriedly, somewhat helplessly, and at the same time glanced at Li Hao, as if to say, look, I spent five kilograms of good wine for you!

Li Hao was speechless. Lin Yufeng was not some ordinary person. Although he was not a top genius, he definitely had a decent talent for cultivation. Moreover, with the supreme magic skills he taught him, he would definitely be able to make a name for himself.

Lin Yufeng also realized what the two were bargaining for, and a layer of frost appeared on his face, but he did not react. He knew that men often speak with actions.

"Which one?"

Seeing that Li Tiemu agreed, Tao Chunfeng also stopped and glanced at Li Hao and the other two.

"he."

Li Tiemu pointed at Lin Yufeng.

Tao Chunfeng glanced at him, flicked his sleeves and said, "Come with me."

Li Tiemu pouted at Lin Yufeng, and Lin Yufeng bowed to Li Hao and said, "I'll go first."

"Ah."

Li Hao nodded and watched him and the other party leave and head towards the towering mountain. Li Tiemu said, "Stop looking, let's go too."

Having said that, he hurriedly took Li Hao and Yue Xi away and headed north. There was also a towering mountain here, the top of which could not be seen, but one side of the mountain was a vertical cliff, as if it had been flattened by something.

"This is Jian Yuan."

Li Tiemu showed a smile on his face. Now that they had returned to the sect, the two disciples were safe.

He was in a very good mood and introduced casually, "This is the mark left by Jianyuan's former chief sword immortal when he comprehended the Emperor Sword Style 30,000 years ago. Later, it was given to Jianyuan disciples to engrave their names on. The Emperor Sword's might remains on it. The closer to the center, the stronger the sword intent. Therefore, most Jianyuan disciples are proud to have their names engraved in the center of this Emperor Sword Cliff."

At this point, he looked at the two of them with a smile and said, "When you become my disciples, you can go and try if you are interested."

Hearing this, Li Hao just glanced at it and showed no interest.

Monkeys like to leave their names.

There seemed to be a gleam of light on Yue Xi's beautiful face. She stared deeply at Emperor Jianya and asked softly:
"What realm is that chief swordsman at now? Can I become his disciple?"

Li Tiemu shook his head: "He is gone."

"Not here?"

Yuexi turned and looked at him.

Li Tiemu's eyes showed a trace of sadness, and he said: "After comprehending the Emperor Sword Style, the battlefield in the Southern Region was in chaos. He went to the Southern Region to suppress it in the name of the Immortal Dynasty. He killed nine king-level ancient demons in a row, but in the end he still died with regret. Only one hand holding the sword was brought back..."

When he said this, besides sadness, there was also some murderous intent in his eyes.

Li Hao and Yue Xi looked at each other. Although Old Man Li did not elaborate, they felt shocked in their hearts.

Such a person must have been extremely handsome and elegant, but he died on the battlefield, and even his body was mutilated?

If the Emperor's fall a hundred thousand years ago seemed extremely far away to them, then the towering and straight Emperor's Sword Cliff before them was very close to them...

"Ancient Demon, the only goal of my Huohuo clan's cultivation is to kill all the ancient demons in the world!"

Yuexi clenched her fingers slightly, with a cold light in her eyes.

Li Tiemu nodded. The ancient demons were the common enemy of the real world. The various sects fought against each other and robbed each other of resources, but when it came to dealing with the ancient demons, they all had a common hatred. "Let's go."

Li Tiemu took the two of them up the mountain.

The sword path on the mountain is like a dragon's spine, layer upon layer, winding and snow-white.

"It seems that Jian Yuan's disciples are not as good as Qiang Yuan?"

On the way up the mountain, Li Hao noticed that there was less aura on the mountain, far less than the Qiang Yuan he had seen before.

Li Tiemu nodded slightly and said, "Jianyuan has been declining in recent years. The Wanshan Sword Tower has gathered many sword wizards. I, Dameng Jiuyuan..."

He shook his head and continued to lead the way with his hands behind his back.

On this day, old man Li from Jianyuan came back and brought with him two new and cute disciples, a boy and a girl.

When they reached the top of the mountain, Li Hao and Yue Xi saw many disciples of Jianyuan practicing sword skills, sparring, meditating, and comprehending the way of the sword.

Sword lights floated in the void, some of them were practicing sword control, mastering thousands of sword weapons.

Some are sword formations, with the swords arranged into dragon formations, with bursts of roars coming from inside.

Li Tiemu's arrival attracted some people's attention, and some of them hurriedly put away their swords and greeted their master.

"Another junior fellow disciple is coming?"

"Looking at these two, they both seem to have some extraordinary bearing."

Although it was impossible to see through Li Hao and Yue Xi's cultivation level, many people noticed their demeanor and expression, which made them stand out in the crowd.

"There are four academies in Jianyuan, namely Tiandi, Xuanyuan, and Huangyuan. Unless a newcomer directly becomes a disciple of an elder, all normal disciples must first pass the entrance test and be assigned to Huangyuan. Then, they can be promoted step by step through practice and performance!"

As Li Tiemu walked, he told Li Hao and Yue Xi:
"The cultivation resources available to each academy are also different. Tianyuan is naturally the best. You are very lucky. I am one of the three elders of Jianyuan. If you become my disciple, you can directly enter Tianyuan to practice!"

Upon hearing this, Li Hao and Yue Xi's expressions did not change.

Li Hao didn't care, but Yue Xi felt that it should be so.

If she were allowed to enter the Huangyuan or Diyuan, she would immediately rush into the Tianyuan with sword in hand to compete with those disciples of the Tianyuan to see where she is inferior!
Li Tiemu felt helpless when he saw that the two did not look surprised at all. This was the bad thing about recruiting geniuses. The emotional value provided was too low. Even the rewards and honors were all mediocre. He could not tell whether they were really impressive or just pretending.

"Would you two like to become my disciples?"

he asked.

Li Hao nodded.

Yuexi also nodded, but both of them looked very casual.

Li Tiemu felt that he had no sense of accomplishment as a master and smiled bitterly in his heart, but when he thought that these two, one with eight rings and the other with nine rings, were both monsters, he let it go.

After crossing the square in front, Li Tiemu brought them to the Sword Immortal Pavilion on the top of the mountain.

He sent out a message and called all his disciples over.

"Don't look at me smiling, but I am very strict in accepting disciples. I only have five disciples, and you two make it seven!"

Li Tiemu's expression became serious, and he said to the two of them, "Once you become my disciple, the training tests in the future will be extremely strict. If you slack off, I will never let you off easily!"

Li Hao asked, "Except for tests, you won't care about me at other times, right?"

Li Tiemu glanced at him and said, "As long as you meet the requirements, I can ignore you."

Li Hao nodded and felt relieved: "That's fine."

At this time, three figures came flying and landed in front of the Sword Immortal Pavilion.

"Master."

When the three saw Li Tiemu, they all bowed and worshipped him, then looked at Li Hao and Yue Xi.

"New junior brothers and sisters. We actually got two at once this time?"

The three of them were a little surprised. They knew that although their master, Old Man Li, was usually not serious, they also knew that their master had another famous name in the Yanchu Immortal Dynasty, the Iron Sword Immortal!

"Where is your senior brother?"

Li Tiemu asked.

"Big Brother has gone out to slay the ancient demon."

"Fifth Junior Sister went to the Immortal Dynasty to teach swords and has not returned yet."

A young man with lively eyes responded with a grin.

Li Tiemu nodded and said, "They are my new disciples, and they are also your junior brothers and sisters. You should take good care of them. You, serve them tea first."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and called for an armchair, then sat on it with a solemn expression.

Yuexi did not hesitate. She took the tea handed to her by the young man next to her and knelt down to serve it.

Li Hao also picked up the tea and was about to serve it, when suddenly a buzzing sound came from the Sword Immortal Pavilion behind Li Tiemu, and the ground shook slightly.

Li Tiemu had just picked up Yuexi's tea and took a sip when he was startled by the shock. His previous solemnity disappeared in an instant. He jumped up and looked at the Sword Immortal Pavilion in astonishment.

"Okay, it seems like..."

The three people nearby seemed to understand what had happened, and looked at each other in shock.

Li Tiemu was also shocked. The broken iron in the sword pavilion actually vibrated. What was going on?
As he stood up, the vibration quickly disappeared, and everything seemed like an illusion.

Li Tiemu's expression flickered. At this moment, several figures suddenly appeared above the Sword Immortal Pavilion as if teleporting. The figures seemed to be shrouded in clouds and mist, and could not be seen clearly.

Li Tiemu didn't even bother to pay Li Hao a visit and serve him tea. He flew forward, and they were both enveloped in a barrier, and they spoke in low voices.

After a while, the barrier dissipated and the figures disappeared. One of them glanced at Li Hao and Yue Xi, then turned and left.

Li Tiemu returned to the Sword Immortal Pavilion, smiled bitterly, and said, "I don't know what the trouble is. I'll go check it out later."

He looked at the tea in Li Hao's hand again and found that it had gone cold. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it. From today on, you two are my disciples, Li Tiemu. You are the sixth and you are the seventh!"

He ranked Li Hao and Yue Xi separately.

Yuexi served tea first, standing in front of Li Hao.

Li Hao smiled bitterly when he heard that. He suddenly thought that this girl was so anxious to serve tea. Could it be that she wanted to surpass him in terms of master status?
When he saw the other person's slightly proud neck, he seemed to be sure of the answer.

"You are such a jerk!"

Li Hao said to Yuexi.

Yuexi frowned slightly. Although there was nothing wrong with what he said, she somehow felt that it was not a good thing.

"Now, I will teach you one of the core sword techniques of the Great Dream Nine Abyss Sword Sect, the Great Dream Nine Abyss, Immortal Sword, the first move, Immortal Pointing the Way!"

Li Tiemu raised his hand, and suddenly a seemingly ordinary wooden sword appeared in his palm. His expression returned to a relaxed state, and he said, "Master it within half a month. This is the minimum requirement for you."

Hearing this, the three people beside him looked strange. This was not what they were told at the beginning, but they had long been accustomed to it. The master had different requirements for each disciple, which seemed to be based on their qualifications. This also meant that the qualifications of the two new brothers and sisters in front of them seemed to be a bit strong...

They took several months or even half a year at first.

When Yuexi heard this, a light flashed in her eyes, with a hint of challenging fighting spirit.

There was a strange look in Li Hao's eyes, but he didn't say anything.

Li Tiemu raised his hand and displayed his sword intent. Li Hao felt as if the afterimage on the sword wall of the heavens had resurrected and was dancing with the sword in front of him.

Yuexi was watching intently, but Li Hao's eyes were filled with aftertaste and emotion.

The three people nearby were paying attention to the expressions of the two junior brothers and sisters. Seeing that Li Hao obviously didn't put his heart into it, they all looked at him twice.

Not long after, Li Tiemu finished the drill and said to the two, "Did you remember everything? Go back and study it carefully."

Yuexi closed her eyes and did not answer, apparently she had begun to meditate.

When Li Tiemu saw this, he did not blame anyone, but instead showed a hint of satisfaction on his face.

Li Hao smiled and agreed. Li Tiemu nodded and said to Li Hao, "Although you are very talented, you should not be proud. You are a true immortal, right? If you perform well, I will recommend you to represent Jianyuan in the battle this time."

"Join the war?"

Li Hao was puzzled.

Li Tiemu smiled slightly and didn't elaborate.

The three people nearby were surprised, but then they thought of the old man Li's personality and knew how to make big promises, so it was not surprising.

"Okay, you two should get to know each other better. If you have any questions, just ask them. If they dare to act out, come back to me."

Li Tiemu said this and left Li Hao and Yue Xi behind, turned around and left in a flash.

Yuexi slowly opened her eyes at this time, with aftertaste and thought still in her eyes.

When the three of them saw Old Man Li leaving, they immediately stepped forward to greet Li Hao and Yue Xi.

After a brief acquaintance, Li Hao also got to know the three of them. The one who looked to be about 27 or 28 years old was the second senior brother, named Lu Wuchen. He seemed to have a rather cold personality. He simply greeted Li Hao and Yue Xi, then disappeared instantly along with Li Tiemu.

Another beautiful woman with a voluptuous figure and an elegant temperament, dressed in plain white with sleeves like veils, is the third senior sister, named Wei Hongye, who is more easy-going.

The young man with lively eyes had the most lively personality. His name was Xu Jianming and he was the fourth among them. He talked incessantly with Li Hao and Yue Xi about the situation, such as how they were taken in by old man Li, their aptitude and Taoism, etc.

Yuexi's thoughts were interrupted by him and her expression became a little cold. She seemed to reveal her identity deliberately.

Upon learning that she was from a family that brought disaster, Xu Jianming's voice suddenly fell silent, and then he asked pitifully in a low voice about Li Hao's family.

He was relieved when he learned that Li Hao was just an ordinary human.

Although Wei Hongye was surprised by Yue Xi's identity, she did not show any fear. Instead, she asked about her qualifications with a smile.

The fact that the Disaster Clan was accepted by Old Man Li must mean that they are extraordinary. They know the character of this master very well.

Seeing that there was no fear or rejection in the eyes of this Third Senior Sister, Yue Xi felt a little more favorable towards her. The coldness on her face turned into calmness, and she expressed her heart of Taoism.

"Eight?"

Wei Hongye and Xu Jianming were both shocked to learn that Yuexi Dao Heart Eight Sounds was the Eternal Dao Heart.

Yue Xi saw their reactions, glanced at Li Hao next to her, and said, "My number is nothing, he made one more ring than me."
