The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 482 The Three-Year Period Has Expired (6K)

In the Great Dream Jiuyuan Camp.

In the building where the Jianyuan lineage lived, Ji Qingxuan, Wei Hongye and others looked at the three junior brothers and sisters who had just reported in with surprise.

"You said Haotian had been here a long time ago? We didn't even meet him."

Wei Hongye couldn't help but say.

When they first saw the three people, they were a little surprised. They didn't expect them to come to this dangerous border.

However, after seeing the cultivation levels of the three of them, Yue Xi, who was at the lowest level, also advanced from the third level of the True Immortal Realm to the sixth level of the True Immortal Realm within a year.

Murong Qingwu's realm is the highest, having already reached the tenth level of True Immortal Realm, which is the same realm as Wei Hongye and Lu Wuchen.

Junior Brother Gu Yan, who joined the sect the latest, has actually improved his realm the fastest. He is now at the seventh level of the True Immortal Realm, surpassing Yue Xi in realm.

Perhaps it was the natural sword-wielding body of an ancient immortal. The improvement of his realm had brought about great changes to Gu Yan. Previously, he was like a sword hidden in its sheath, with no visible edge, but now the sheath was half exposed. Even though he was extremely restrained, there was a feeling of coldness.

"Didn't meet him? How is that possible? Did he go to the wrong place, or..."

Murong Qingwu was surprised and confused. She also wanted to meet Haotian to see how this most mysterious junior brother had changed in the past year.

"Master asked the Dream Master, he did come here, unless he was lying."

Yuexi frowned, with disappointment in her eyes. What she was most looking forward to this time was to meet Li Hao and see if the gap between them had narrowed over the past year.

Because of the blow to her ranking on the Immortal Monument in the Ancient Fairyland, she has been practicing madly for the past year, working hard to improve herself, and has changed tremendously.

"You said he came here a year ago?"

Ji Qingxuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he glanced at the silent Lu Wuchen beside him. The two looked at each other, and Lu Wuchen's eyes changed slightly, and he said in a low voice:
"A year ago, the ancient demon's attack seemed like a minor one, but it actually harbored evil intentions and almost reached the level of a heavenly disaster!"

Ji Qingxuan said in a deep voice: "If he happened to come here when the war started, he might have rushed to the battlefield before he had time to enter the sect, but now..."

Now that the war is over, the other party still hasn't reported to the sect. There is only one possibility, that is, he died in that battle.

After hearing the conversation between the two, Wei Hongye's expression changed. She felt a little shocked and a little heartbroken.

Although he couldn't say that he had a deep relationship with that young man, after all, he had only been his disciple for a short time, but it was still a pity that such a talented young man died silently in the ancient demon battlefield.

"Battle? Sacrifice?"

The expression in Gu Yan's eyes, which had been silent the whole time, suddenly changed, and there was a sense of sharp cold light shooting out. He immediately asked: "What battle are you talking about?"

Lu Wuchen glanced at him. He could understand the feelings of this junior brother who was the same as himself, a quiet and taciturn type. He said:

"At this border, when the ancient demons invade, the Immortal War Signal will be sounded, which is divided into four levels: evil level, disaster level, heaven level, and the highest level of death!"

"Evil-level invasions often occur within a hundred years, and heaven-level disasters occur only once in a thousand years. And death-level disasters often cause a sensation throughout the country, and even other surrounding immortal dynasties will send troops to reinforce, including the Heavenly Palace will also come to help."

Gu Yan and the other two were stunned when they heard this, and their faces turned ugly.

That person encountered a natural disaster that is close to once in a thousand years?

"If he had not joined the sect, and was isolated and helpless in the battlefield, with only the members of the battle camp he had just met, then it must be..."

Ji Qingxuan shook his head slightly, with regret in his eyes. Then he thought of something and asked:

"You went to Yanchuxiandu to take part in the test. How did you perform? Were you promoted?"

Yuexi and Gu Yan were in a daze, still unable to extricate themselves from the news that the young man might have died.

Murong Qingwu entered the sect earlier and had great respect for this senior brother. Upon hearing his question, she immediately responded:

"This test is in the Ancient Fairyland. We are almost there. I heard from our master that only Haotian passed it."

"Ancient Fairyland?"

Ji Qingxuan's face changed slightly. He had obviously heard about the power of the ancient fairyland of the Yanchu Immortal Dynasty, and Murong Qingwu's words also made him a little stunned.

"He was the only one who passed?"

Wei Hongye was stunned, and the face of the young man could not help but appear in her eyes. Gu Yan, who seemed to have the strongest talent among the four, did not perform as well as the young man on Emperor Sword Mountain.

In her opinion, the young man was extremely mysterious. She could see through Gu Yan to some extent, but she could not see through the young man at all.

Unexpectedly, the other party was hiding so deeply that he passed the test that even Murong Qingwu failed.

"He passed the test, why would Master let him come to this battlefield and make trouble without anyone accompanying him?"

Ji Qingxuan came back to his senses and frowned.

Murong Qingwu smiled bitterly, not knowing how to respond.

"Don't be too pessimistic. Maybe he changed his mind and went somewhere else. We will send people to the city to look for him. You come here to practice. We will find strong men in the army to practice with you day and night. You must be prepared."

Lu Wuchen said to the three of them.

The three of them nodded slightly. Yue Xi bit her lip and said, "Brother, is there any other way to confirm his life or death? Find the dream master?"

"Well, I will report this situation to Master and ask him to find the Dream Master." Lu Wuchen said.

Murong Qingwu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "His passing the test is related to the honor and disgrace of the sect. Master Meng will definitely not hesitate to help."

Hearing this, several people nodded, knowing full well how much importance the sect attached to this battle in the Southern Region.

Ji Qingxuan said: "Don't think too much about it for now, and focus on your cultivation. It's a good thing to come to this border to train. Fighting life and death can stimulate your potential. Improving your realm is important, but actual combat is more important. I know some good fighters in the army, and I will let you feel the fighting posture of the army."

"Thank you, senior brother."

The three of them thanked him in unison, but except for Murong Qingwu, Yue Xi and Gu Yan were not in a good mood.

Without confirming whether Li Hao was alive or dead, they all felt empty in their hearts.

"Let's go, I'll take you to get familiar with it first."

Wei Hongye saw the look Ji Qingxuan gave her and immediately understood what he meant, and asked the three to leave.

"God is jealous of talented people. I hope that little brother is okay."

After the three of them left with Wei Hongye, Lu Wuchen sighed as he looked at their backs.

Ji Qingxuan shook his head slightly and said, "A genius who doesn't live to the end can't be considered a genius. Otherwise, in this real world over countless years, there would be countless geniuses like this, like the stars in the sky."

Lu Wuchen knew that he and the young man had only met once, and they were not familiar with each other, so he did not have a deep feeling about this, so he said:
"I can't see through that boy, but I feel that he seems to have more potential than Gu Yan."

"Maybe."

Ji Qingxuan nodded. He had seen the realms of these new junior brothers and sisters at Emperor Sword Mountain. The fact that the young man was the only one among the four who had passed the test of the Yanchu Immortal Dynasty and defeated a natural sword immortal of the same realm was enough to show that he had something extremely special.

"No more talking. Now it all depends on whether the three of them can make a breakthrough within two years. Don't wait until the Southern Region Battle, when they can't even make it to the stage."

He shook his head and sighed, "But even if we can get in, it will be just an ordinary role in the Southern Region Battle. No one will remember us. We may have to place our hopes on the other Abysses this time. I heard that there is a genius in the Gun Abyss lineage. I wonder if he can lead our Great Dream Nine Abysses to the position of the Tianyi Sect."

When Lu Wuchen heard his words, he couldn't help but look towards Qiang Yuan's position, a little absent-minded.

As the second senior brother, he did not bear as much honor and disgrace of the sect as Ji Qingxuan did. He only regarded Jianyuan as his home.

However, Ji Qingxuan's mind is broader than his, and can accommodate the entire Dameng Jiuyuan.

……

……

In the Shuiyue Palace.

The whole yard is a secret realm of water and moon. Li Hao is eating demon meat in a pavilion beside the arch bridge, while watching the girl practicing sword outside the pavilion.

Gu Xingwan, dressed in goose yellow clothes, had a focused expression on his face, and his sword moves lightly, like a butterfly dancing among flowers. It was a pity that the sword lacked the sharpness that could cut through heaven and earth, but had a bit more gentleness and lingering power. This seemed to be the effect of his mastery of the origin of the waterway, and he quietly and invisibly used the power of the origin of the waterway in his attack.

Whoosh!
Gu Xingwan's immortal power suddenly burst out, and the continuous sword force suddenly gathered together and accumulated in one place, like the power of endless waves gathered at one point and suddenly erupted, causing a terrible impact force.

As the sword slashed out, the clouds and mist dissipated, and the fallen leaves of the surrounding trees seemed to sway.

Gu Xingwan looked at the might of the sword with great satisfaction. He turned his head to look at the pavilion and saw that the young man was eating with gusto. He couldn't help but frowned and pursed his lips, saying:
"Grandpa asked you to come and practice sword skills with me today and teach me, why are you just eating?"

"It doesn't affect eating."

Li Hao argued, but he had to swallow the meat in his mouth while speaking, and stopped to take the next bite.

"Hmph, then tell me, how is my sword practice just now? How long will it take for me to catch up with you?"

Gu Xingwan snorted softly, but looked at Li Hao with a hint of anticipation in her eyes, as if waiting for approval.

"Catch up with me?" Li Hao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "That depends on luck. As for your sword performance, it can only be said to be unsatisfactory."

"Ah."

Gu Xingwan didn't expect to receive such an evaluation. Her cheeks flushed and her ears turned red. She was angry and a little aggrieved. She said:
"Is it that bad?"

Li Hao saw her expression and immediately realized that he seemed to have said it too bluntly. He coughed lightly and said, "It's not that bad actually. It's just that you always apply the consciousness of the origin of the waterway to this swordsmanship, which interferes with it."

"If you comprehend the origin of the Golden Dao, then this kind of interference may have a much smaller impact."

"What do you mean?"

Gu Xingwan was puzzled.

Li Hao stood up and walked to her side, taking the sword from her hand with one hand, "Watch out, I will only practice once."

Gu Xingwan looked at the young man. He looked casual, holding the barbecued meat in one hand, which was sizzling with fragrance, and holding her sword in the other hand. His expression was so casual that he didn't look like he was teaching anything.

But she was already used to it, and her expression became serious.

"The so-called Qingtian means to cut through everything, including the pure sword intent that can split the sky. Therefore, this immortal art requires an extremely high level of swordsmanship to comprehend."

Li Hao raised his hand, and the moment he swung the sword, his eyes suddenly went from relaxed to sharp, like a flash of cold lightning, flashing by in an instant, and then the sword energy was drawn out, the void was distorted, as if everything was unstoppable!
This time, Li Hao's moves were relatively slow, which was equivalent to teaching Gu Xingwan step by step.

Gu Xingwan stared blankly for a long time. When she came to her senses again, she saw that Li Hao had returned to the pavilion with his sword stuck in the ground in front of him.

She was stunned for a moment before she grabbed the sword. Seeing the young man eating in the pavilion again, she didn't say anything this time. She just lowered her head and stared at the sword in her hand for a moment, then closed her eyes. The immortal power in her body gradually accumulated and boiled, extending to the peak in her body in an instant, and she slashed out with the sword.

The sword was as powerful as a rainbow, cutting through the sky, as if it was going to split the secret realm in half.

Li Hao looked up and nodded slightly. He had a good understanding and understood a lot after being taught only once.

"good."

He complimented.

Gu Xingwan also saw the power of this sword, and joy suddenly appeared in his eyes. It was indeed much more powerful than before.

"I understand. I shouldn't use the sword to build up momentum. Instead, I should store the momentum inside my body. The sword will only explode at the moment of attack." Gu Xingwan said. She just used the power of the origin of the waterway, but she didn't use the sword to extend the momentum. Instead, she accumulated immortal power inside her body.

"It's also a kind of cleverness." Li Hao commented.

Gu Xingwan laughed and glanced at the boy. Seeing that he was looking at her with a smile, her cheeks turned red and she turned her head away.

Today's guidance is more beneficial than her years of hard practice and thinking, and she has gained a lot.

"Thank you."

She lowered her head and spoke in a weak voice.

"It's a small matter." Li Hao responded casually, then stood up and said, "Then you practice slowly, I'll go find your grandfather."

When Gu Xingwan saw Li Hao was about to leave, his eyes suddenly turned disappointed and he said, "I'm not familiar with it yet, can you teach me again?"

"I just taught you. You have to figure it out on your own. You can't learn it by just teaching." Li Hao said.

Then he left directly and headed for Shuiyue Palace.

Gu Xingwan stamped her feet slightly, and bit her lip slightly when she saw the other person leaving without any reluctance.

In the Shuiyue Palace.

Li Hao saw Gu Changming meditating, but in the void in front of the other party, there were stars surrounding and moving continuously, like a star field.

"coming."

Gu Changming seemed to have sensed Li Hao's presence, looked over with a smile, and said, "That child has troubled you."

Obviously, he had noticed what was happening in the hospital.

"Small things."

Li Hao said casually.

"For the spiritual officer, because you are a special case, there are more relationships to be smoothed out. It has been put on file now. This is your Demon-Subduing Spiritual Officer Order, this is the Spiritual Officer Immortal Slashing Cloth, and this is the Divine Ashes Demon-Subduing Sword!"

Gu Changming raised his hand and waved many things in front of Li Hao.

The Demon-Subduing Spiritual Officer Order was glowing silver all over, just like a military order. It contained Li Hao's identity information as a spiritual officer and could not be forged.

The Immortal Slaying Robe looks gorgeous, with wide sleeves and a long gown, emitting a silver-white glow all over. It is a set of immortal weapons that contains the laws of immortality and can withstand attacks from lower-level immortal kings.

The Divine Ashes Sword to Subdue Demons is also an immortal weapon, a standard equipment for spiritual officials. Li Hao is a lower-level spiritual official, and is equipped with the Divine Ashes Sword to Subdue Demons, which is also a lower-level immortal weapon.

This immortal weapon was uniformly forged by the Yanchu Immortal Dynasty, and the hilt is shaped like the majestic ancient demon's head biting into it.

"When you wear this outfit in Yanchu, any county town or city where you enforce the law will have the locals actively cooperate with you."

Gu Changming said.

Li Hao nodded. He had inherited the immortal weapons, so he was not short of them.

Taowu is a top-notch immortal weapon, far superior to the Divine Cinders Sword in his hand, but because it recognizes him as its master and shares immortal power with him, he needs to call upon his immortal power to unleash its power. However, he is currently at the third level of the True Immortal Realm, and even if his immortal power is depleted, Taowu cannot display even half of its power.

Although it is continuously replenished by the star veins in the sky, its own capacity is too low.

"It's time to practice. I happen to have some spirit stones."

Li Hao said in his heart.

Cooking ancient demon meat mainly improves the spirit, but has little effect on improving cultivation. In this Shuiyue Secret Realm, the immortal power is abundant. If combined with immortal stones to practice with all your strength, it is not difficult to improve your realm.

"You are currently in Qinghe Dead City. I have told the department that you should stay with me to fight demons. You don't need to report back to the Demon Suppression Department for the time being. You can practice with peace of mind. When your battle in the South Territory is over, or you get tired of staying here, it won't be too late to consider leaving."

Gu Changming smiled and said, "According to your request, I've found you a leisurely job, but you still have to be there."

"Thank you, Mr. Gu."

Li Hao smiled.

"Go ahead, tell me if you need anything."

"it is good."

Li Hao stood up and said goodbye, then returned to the courtyard and began to practice in his own residence.

Now he lives in this Shuiyue Secret Realm for a long time. The immortal energy here is rich. Even if he does not practice deliberately, his cultivation will slowly increase. The conditions are much better than those in the Wildfire Camp.

Because he was on the Immortal Skills List and the news leaked out, he lived in the Wildfire Camp. People often came to visit him, and he was overwhelmed and annoyed. Li Hao hid here mainly for some peace and quiet.

Li Hao came to his residence and his mind entered the token. There was a treasure house for exchanging immortal skills here, where he could use immortal skills to exchange for many treasures in the treasury of the Yanchu Immortal Dynasty.

Even if all the immortal power is used up, the record of immortal power still exists.

Li Hao had no intention of using up his magical power. He had no interest in the many precious medicines and elixirs in it. As for the magical weapons, he had Taowu in his hand, so he had no shortage of them.

Without looking at it any further, he directly used 100,000 immortal powers to exchange for 100,000 immortal stones.

A little immortal power for one immortal stone, this exchange is undoubtedly a bit extravagant. Many people are reluctant to exchange it for immortal stones, but accumulate them to exchange for other precious immortal pills and elixirs. But for Li Hao, he does it in any way that is convenient.

"When I have time, I will go and exchange the three IOUs in the Imperial Palace."

Li Hao said in his heart.

Those three IOUs, each one is worth one million immortal stones, I wonder if the former chamber of commerce has gone bankrupt.

Immortal stones are precious. Even with his current status as a spiritual official, his monthly salary is only one hundred immortal stones.

For ordinary people in the True Immortal Realm who work as guards for immortal families, earning four or five immortal stones a month is considered a very good treatment.

One hundred thousand immortal stones are enough for Li Hao to cultivate to the eighth or ninth level of the True Immortal Realm.

He had just finished eating the demon meat, and at this moment he casually used the Dao Realm. The space was superimposed and the flow of time was changed. Even if Gu Changming wanted to detect his movements in the Dao Realm, he would be able to detect it.

Li Hao began to melt the immortal stone, turning it into vigorous immortal power that surrounded himself, and then began to absorb and refine it.

When he felt hungry, he stopped immediately and started cooking the flesh and blood of the ancient demon.

After eating, he would practice, and when he felt hungry, he would continue eating.

This went on for a long time. As time passed, Li Hao did not go out and stayed in his yard all day.

Time flies.

Life on the border is rather boring. Day after day, all we do is fight and wait for war.

Now that the war against ancient demons has just ended, many soldiers are practicing or training in the army.

Bang!
In a military camp, Gu Yan’s figure flew backwards, spitting out blood.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes were a little fierce, and he wanted to get up and fight again, but the soldier on the opposite side waved his hand and said:

"You are murderous, don't take it too seriously. If I continue to fight, I might hurt you."

Gu Yan's face changed slightly, and the anger in his heart immediately dissipated. He stood up, was silent for a moment, and bowed his hands and said, "Thank you for your advice."

"It's not so much about teaching you, but it's quite interesting to bully you when you are still weak."

The middle-aged soldier laughed loudly, not hiding his thoughts at all.

Beside them, Ji Qingxuan, Lu Wuchen and others were watching silently. Ji Qingxuan nodded to the soldier and said, "Let's have a drink later."

"Easy to say."

The soldier waved his hand and turned away.

Ji Qingxuan came in front of Gu Yan and said, "Although the opponent's realm is one level higher than yours, if he really explodes, you may not be able to defeat him, unless you have some special trump card that I don't know about, but that kind of thing can only be used once, do you understand?"

Gu Yan looked at this senior brother. The height difference between them forced him to look up slightly. He hated looking up at others, so he only looked up once and then turned his head away involuntarily, saying:

"I see."

"That's good to know. Go back and digest it. You've been here for a year. Although you haven't won much, your progress is still very obvious."

Ji Qingxuan said.

Gu Yan clenched his fist, nodded, turned and left.

“Although we didn’t fight the ancient demons, these strong men in the army all came back alive after fighting with the ancient demons. Fighting with them is no less than fighting with the ancient demons.”

Wei Hongye said to Murong Qingwu and Yue Xi beside her.

The two women nodded slightly. They all felt the strength of these powerful soldiers and the sharpness of their attacks. It was different from the fights outside. The speed, obscurity and explosive power of the magic skills were far superior to those outside.

After this year's training, they all feel that they have made great progress.

"Don't slack off, practice well. Master said that the dream master has calculated that Haotian's life light is still there, and nothing has happened. Maybe he just didn't come here."

Wei Hongye smiled at the two and said, "Now you should practice hard here. You will meet him in a year. Maybe you can surpass him."

Hearing this, the two looked at each other, and their eyes brightened a lot.

"It's a pity that I didn't encounter the ancient demon. I really want to see it."

Murong Qingwu said.

Wei Hongye smiled and said, "There will be opportunities in the future. If you are really bored, I can take you to the Ancient Demon Arena. There are ancient demons captured alive on the battlefield for the soldiers to have fun on weekdays. It also prevents some soldiers from slacking off for a long time. I will take you to see it when I have time."

"it is good."

The two girls quickly agreed.

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it has been nearly three years since Li Hao came to Qinghe Dead City.

Apart from the previous battle, there have been no ancient demon invasions in the past three years. This was something the soldiers in the Dead City were accustomed to. After all, the scale of that disaster-level ancient demon invasion was so large that the ancient demons needed some time to rest.

In the real world, a thousand years pass in the blink of an eye and time is like a song. A mere three years is not worth mentioning.

But for the geniuses from various sects who participated in the Southern Region Battle, these three years were like a day of autumn, and they practiced hard every day.

"It's the last month now, and it's time for us to set off for the Imperial City of Xiandu."

In the courtyard of Shuiyue Palace, Gu Xingwan put away his sword and said to Li Hao.
