The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 643 Gathering in the Eighth Heaven

Bang!
A fierce sword cry rang out, and Di Ling Shu's silver hair flew wildly as her body was thrown back.

In the void before her, the aftershocks of the spacetime rift were slowly shrinking and healing. The chaotic beast that had fought against her had its body split open, with hundreds of sword beams slicing it apart from within.

When Di Ling Shu saw the Heavenly Dao Power manifested within the Chaos Dao Beast, she breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes filled with joy. This was the first Heavenly Dao Power she had ever obtained!

She raised her hand and gathered the power of the Heavenly Dao into her palm, then quickly absorbed it into her body and carefully sensed it.

Soon, she discovered that this supreme power was indeed as her master had said; it was beyond her control, she could only absorb it, but she could not master it. Only when she reached the Immortal King realm and condensed her own domain would she be qualified to wield it.

"Junior Brother should be done by now, right?"

Di Ling Shu withdrew her thoughts and scanned the area with her divine sense. On this land, the range of her divine sense was extremely suppressed, making it impossible to see the whole picture. If she were outside, she could cover the entire land with a single sweep of her divine sense.

But here, we can only glimpse one-third of it.

Soon, she saw a giant beast confronting Li Hao in the lake not far away.

But upon closer inspection, she was startled. It wasn't a standoff; rather, the giant beast seemed to be frozen in ice, while Li Hao sat cross-legged in front of it, raising his hand and waving it. In the void, as if a mirror image was being projected, another giant beast slowly emerged.

"painting?"

Di Ling Shu was stunned. She had long heard that her junior brother was fond of unorthodox methods, but she did not expect that his painting skills were so superb that he could completely replicate a Chaos Beast.

"go."

As Di Ling Shu watched, Li Hao waved softly.

In an instant, the chaotic beast depicted in the painting suddenly revealed a ferocious look in its eyes and charged towards the giant beast.

The giant beast's eyes were filled with horror, unable to comprehend what kind of power this was, but its ferocity was aroused, and it roared as it charged toward its own phantom.

Soon, a great battle erupted on the lake, causing the water to ripple violently and the surrounding mountains and earth veins to tremble.

The two Chaos Dao Beasts used the same attack methods, and for a time they were evenly matched. However, as the battle intensified, the Chaos Dao Beast drawn by Li Hao unleashed a terrifying power of time, sometimes accelerating and sometimes stopping. Before long, it gained the upper hand, pressed the other Chaos Dao Beast into the water, and tore its body apart in a few moves.

"not bad."

Seeing this, Li Hao smiled. For someone who had only painted for the first time, to be able to perceive the Chaos Beast to such an extent was quite remarkable.

After all, the other party did not make a move, and it was truly remarkable that he was able to discern all of their methods solely through his insight into the realm of painting.

But this is mainly because he is at the sixth level of the Chaos Dao, and he controls the power of destiny, so he can see the traces of fate emanating from the other party.

His fate seemed to be inscribed with the other person's methods and life story, and he could barely glean some of it.

"Is this what it feels like to wield the power of destiny? In the eyes of those Immortal Emperors, are there no secrets among the masses?"

Li Hao thought to himself.

Immortal Emperors inevitably possess the power of destiny and have cultivated numerous powers to their peak. After all, Immortal Emperors have inexhaustible resources and infinite lifespans, making them terrifyingly powerful beyond imagination.

"This power of destiny has been integrated into my Eye of the Painting Realm. Although I don't have the bloodline power of others, my Eye of the Painting Realm should be no less powerful than those with double pupils or imperial eyes!"

As Li Hao spoke, the laws of space and time intersected in his eyes, and a sword mark stood upright, forming a strange pupil. This was the Eye of the Painting Realm that he had cultivated on his own.

"Your animal drawing is amazing!"

At this moment, Di Ling Shu's figure flew over, looking in amazement at the Chaos Beast standing in the lake.

Although painting is a minor art, reaching such a level has exceeded her imagination. She feels that she might not even be able to defeat this painted beast.

Li Hao scanned the area with his divine sense and asked, "Have you dealt with your Chaos Dao Beast?"

"Ah."

Di Lingshu nodded and said, "Let's go find the others."

“I’ve taken care of the other ones,” Li Hao said.

Di Ling Shu was stunned. She scanned the area with her divine sense and noticed that the Chaos Dao Beasts in the cave in the forest she had seen earlier had all disappeared.

She was somewhat taken aback. When? So fast?
“Master said there are nine levels in the Heavenly Realm. Let’s go and take a look at the highest level. The Chaos Dao Beasts here have too weak Heavenly Dao power.” Li Hao suggested.

Di Ling Shu's lips twitched, and she said, "You can't just listen to the first half of what Master said. Although the Heavenly Domain has nine levels, Master said that even if you are fusing 23 Chaos Laws, you should not go near the ninth level. It is extremely dangerous there! You can fuse one to three Chaos Laws in the first level of the Heavenly Domain, and four to six Chaos Laws in the second level!"

"With my strength, I can only reach the fourth level of the Heavenly Domain at most, which is the limit."

"Refining 18 to 21 Chaos Laws is most suitable for the seventh level of the Heavenly Domain. Junior Brother, you have refined 23 Chaos Laws, which may lead to danger even in the eighth level of the Heavenly Domain."

She spoke with a serious expression.

Li Hao knew that these nine levels of the Heavenly Realm corresponded to the Immortal Lord Realm, which involved refining different levels of chaotic laws.

Unless there are other top-tier immortal techniques or bloodline powers to enhance it, it will be possible to slightly surpass the current level of the Heavenly Realm.

"Then let's go check out the eighth level first."

Li Hao didn't mention that he had already forged 24 Chaos Laws. Although he had a good relationship with Senior Sister Di Ling Shu, there was no need to reveal too much.

"The eighth level..."

Di Ling Shu hesitated. If she really went to the eighth level, she would definitely be no match for the Chaos Beasts there, and she would have to rely entirely on Li Hao.

"If you feel bad about it, then consider it as owing me a favor."

Li Hao saw through Di Ling Shu's thoughts and said with a smile.

Di Ling Shu gazed intently at Li Hao, sighed softly, and said, "It's more than just a favor. I'm just wondering how I can repay such a debt of gratitude, which is even comparable to the favor my master gave me."

"I love food and sacred trees. If you have any, please send me some as a way of repaying the favor," Li Hao said.

Di Ling Shu smiled bitterly, taking Li Hao's words as a joke. How could these things compare to the top opportunities in the Endless Heaven Domain?

She sighed inwardly but did not refuse. Although she was from an imperial family and extremely proud, she knew that this opportunity would not come again.

"Having received such kindness from my junior brother, I will repay him tenfold if I become an Immortal Emperor in the future."

Di Lingshu said solemnly to Li Hao.

Upon hearing this, Li Hao glanced at her cautiously: "What if I don't become an Immortal Emperor?"

Di Ling Shu was taken aback. Her earnestness vanished suddenly, replaced by annoyance that made her roll her eyes. "You look down on me, your senior sister?" "No, you're just an Immortal Emperor..."

"Hmph, even if I don't become an Immortal Emperor, I'll still pay for it!"

Di Ling Shu snorted irritably, thinking to herself, "If your jinx comes true and I don't become an Immortal Emperor, then I'll really only give you back some delicious food and divine wood. Let's see if you're still angry!"

Li Hao smiled and immediately took Di Ling Shu and rode on the Chaos Dao Beast to the depths of the Endless Heaven Domain.

Before leaving, Di Ling Shu picked all the divine herbs on this land. Cultivated by the power of Heaven and Chaos, the herbs here are extremely old and are considered clan-protecting herbs outside, capable of prolonging the family's lifespan, and are not sold.

After leaving this landmass, Li Hao continued to venture deeper, feeling the increasingly tight pressure in the void and the ever-growing chaotic power ahead. Using this as his direction, he continued to go deeper, skipping over each piece of land he passed without sweeping through them one by one.

After killing several Chaos Dao Beasts, Li Hao realized that they were not comparable to the four he had killed by the Chaos River. The Heavenly Dao Power within him was too little, and the difference in strength between these Chaos Dao Beasts was also extremely large.

"Those four that were lying in ambush by the river earlier were probably Chaos Beasts at the seventh or eighth level!" Li Hao thought to himself.

He had previously tried to kill them directly with the Destiny Sword Dao, but he killed them too quickly and didn't get a chance to properly feel their power. However, he could vaguely sense that if an ordinary person encountered the ambush of those four Chaos Dao Beasts, they would most likely suffer a major disaster.

Before long, after traversing dozens of landmasses, a barrier seemed to appear in the void before them.

Li Hao touched it with his mind and found that he could easily penetrate it. The barrier was like a water film and had no real force to stop it.

Once past the transparent barrier in deep space, the binding force of space became even tighter.

"This should be the second heavenly realm."

"That's what Di Lingshu said."

Li Hao nodded. Starlight twinkled ahead. He chose a piece of land to step onto, and with his divine sense covering it, he quickly saw four or five Chaos Beasts inside.

"Let's kill two to see the difference in strength," Li Hao said.

Upon hearing this, Di Ling Shu also jumped off the back of the painted beast, found a Chaos Dao Beast, and charged with her sword.

Li Hao also rushed towards the remaining Chaos Beasts.

A moment later, Li Hao withdrew the sword light from his hand, sat on the back of the painted beast, and confirmed that this was indeed the second heavenly realm. The combat power of these chaotic beasts was clearly stronger than those he had encountered on the land earlier.

Di Ling Shu quickly finished the battle as well. This time, her battle lasted a little longer and seemed to be more strenuous than before.

“It’s definitely more powerful than before,” Di Lingshu said.

"Let's go on."

Li Hao patted the back of the painted beast with his palm. Di Ling Shu understood and landed on the back of the painted beast. Every move she made revealed the elegance of the imperial family as she slowly sat down.

Li Hao continued forward, riding the painted beast.

As Li Hao and Di Ling Shu ventured deeper into the Endless Heavenly Domain, more figures began to arrive at the Chaos River.

"This is the Endless Heavenly Realm."

"Those who ran ahead should have already gone, let's hurry up too."

These figures leaped out of the Chaos River. They were considered the second tier, but they were all people who had refined 23 Chaos Laws. They just didn't pursue as hard as the Chaos Crimson Demon Clan and others, and were conserving their combat strength.

“Junior Brother Zhexuan, I brought you here. You will hunt outside the first level of the Endless Heavenly Domain. I am going to the deeper eighth level, which is dangerous. If we encounter danger, I am afraid I may not be able to protect you.”

Luo Ningshuang led Lin Zhexuan out of the Chaos River and spoke to him with focused concentration.

Lin Zhexuan felt a little regretful, but he also knew that given his friendship with his Ninth Senior Sister, she would never take a burden like him to the Eighth Heaven Domain. If he really went there, he would not be able to hunt the Chaos Dao Beasts of the Eighth Heaven Domain, and it would be too much of a wish for his Senior Sister to share the ones she hunted with him.

"Okay, senior sister, be careful."

Lin Zhexuan said, his manner extremely decisive.

Luo Ningshuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If this junior brother insisted on staying by her side, it would have really put her in a difficult position.

"You arrived first with me, which means you've seized the initiative. The others who arrived earlier won't stay in the earlier Heavenly Domains, including the Haotian you mentioned. They've all gone to the deeper Eighth Heavenly Domain, which is our battlefield. This First Domain is currently uninhabited, so you should hunt here as quickly as possible. I've also heard that there are divine mines and divine medicines here, including rare divine mines for forging immortal weapons and domain artifacts. If you can collect them, it will be of great benefit to your Lin family."

Luo Ningshuang said.

Lin Zhexuan naturally understood this principle and nodded: "Ninth Senior Sister, you should go quickly. Don't let me delay you, or they will rob all the Chaos Dao Beasts in the Eighth Heaven Domain."

Although Luo Ningshuang was also anxious, she smiled when she heard this and said, "It's possible to take all of the seventh level, but the eighth level is impossible. That area is a dangerous zone for us."

Even in the Eighth Heavenly Realm, one must be cautious when forging 23 Chaos Laws; being surrounded by Chaos Beasts can lead to certain death.
Without saying anything more, Luo Ningshuang led Lin Zhexuan to a piece of land in the first heavenly domain and then sped off into the depths of the endless heavenly domain.

At the same time, the Su sisters, Di Linchen, and others followed another senior brother and rushed out of the Chaos River.

"You shall stay in this first heavenly realm. If you encounter any danger, use the domain artifacts bestowed by your master."

The burly middle-aged man spoke to his fellow disciples.

The ghost sisters thanked Di Linchen and the others.

“I’m leaving too, little sister. You two can stay here and hunt Chaos Beasts. If you cooperate with each other, you’ll be more efficient at hunting them. Our Su family bloodline is united and works together, which is something no one else can match.”

Su Wanyi said to her three younger sisters.

Including her, the four Su sisters have all now become personal disciples of the Chaos Immortal Emperor. It is extremely rare for a family to have four personal disciples.

"Yes, sis, you need to be careful too."

Su Muqing and the others looked at her with concern.

Su Wanyi smiled gently, bid farewell to the three, and then sped off towards the Eighth Heaven Domain.

After she left, Su Muqing and Su Wanqing exchanged glances. Three hundred years had passed, and now they were in the perilous Endless Heaven Domain. Su Wanqing was no longer as cold to Su Muqing as before.

"Let's go."

Su Wanxue said that with her eldest sister gone, she, as the second sister, would take on the responsibility of ensuring the safety of her two younger sisters.

After they all left, a group of figures reappeared along the Chaos River. This was the third echelon, of moderate size. After rushing out of the Chaos River, they couldn't wait to fly off to various parts of the Endless Heavenly Domain.

After a long while, the fourth echelon arrived. It was much larger than the third echelon, and when they swam over, the waves they created were incredibly turbulent. Most of them were geniuses who had forged seven or eight chaotic laws.

Following them came the fifth wave, the largest group, scrambling to cross the river, even though they knew they were late, they still swam desperately to get across.
