The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 656 My Heart is Heaven's Heart

Bang!
With the sound of the void splitting apart, time and cause and effect were severed at this moment. Only the pure and ultimate sword intent severed the body of the black-robed youth!
"Fate reversed."

The black-robed youth's newly split body suddenly displayed terrifying power. He tried to use the laws of destiny to transfer the damage, but found that the destiny of the surroundings had been severed. This sword intent exceeded the capacity of the Immortal Monarch realm. Even if he used many Great Dao Origin realms, he could not parry or resist it.

Among the power he controls, he is already able to surpass the domain artifacts on his own, but this power can even break through the domain artifacts. If he had to describe it, he himself is equivalent to the actual combat power of the first level of the Immortal King Realm, but the boy in front of him is equivalent to the second level of the Immortal King Realm!

His body exploded, and the blood of the true god splattered, transforming into a burning sea of ​​divine souls.

His consciousness coalesced in his sea of ​​consciousness, and he looked at the boy before him with awe.

He had already reached the pinnacle of the Immortal Lord realm, possessing power comparable to that of the Immortal King realm, but the young man before him had an even more terrifying control over the power of chaos.

"Was it passed down to you by the Dao Source Immortal Emperor?"

He couldn't help but ask.

If Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor were to pass on his legacy at any cost, it would be an intentional attempt to ruin his chances in this life. However, he has no connection with Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor, so he shouldn't do that.

Hearing the question, Li Hao shook his head and then slowly said, "You should also have the power of the Three Immortal Realms, right? Even if you kill someone here, you won't be destroyed."

The black-robed youth immediately understood Li Hao's meaning. He looked at the boy who seemed to be in a state of chaos and could sense that the other party had not yet used his full strength. He also had other methods, but even if he unleashed his full power, he felt that he would probably not be able to reverse the outcome.

"I never expected to encounter a monster like you after 100,000 years. Is this the condensation of the true world's fortune over 100,000 years? Perhaps you were personally chosen by the Heavenly Dao."

He whispered, his eyes filled with shock and bitterness. He had heard the rumors about Li Hao, but like everyone else, he had previously thought that Li Hao's talent was the result of years of accumulated strength. But now, seeing Li Hao's soul lifespan, he realized that was not the case.

"The trend of the times cannot be defied. So be it. Even if I defeat you, I may not be able to win the favor of Heaven. Go then, and let me see if you can wipe out that ancient demon after you rise to become Empress."

He withdrew his divine blood and stopped fighting Li Hao, instead stepping aside.

Li Hao didn't know what he was thinking, but since the other party was unwilling to fight anymore, and he wasn't one to kill them all, he immediately withdrew his power, nodded, and continued forward.

Seeing Li Hao's back as he headed towards the summit of the Heavenly Road, the black-robed youth sighed, knowing that in this life, he could only retrace his own path to becoming an emperor.

"I never expected that meeting this kid would be my downfall."

He murmured to himself and gave a bitter laugh.

Suddenly, a series of auras rapidly approached from below. He looked down and saw that it was Chi Yuan and the others who had arrived.

When Chi Yuan and the others arrived, they also noticed the black-robed youth and were all taken aback. They hadn't expected that there was someone else above them besides Li Hao.

"It's you, Black Lord!"

Chi Yuan recognized this person as a genius from the Azure Emperor's Chaos City. He was extremely mysterious. A thousand years ago, he had fought against him once, but they were evenly matched. Only then did he realize that in addition to the true disciples under the Chaos and Dao Origin Immortal Emperors, there were other top geniuses.

The black-robed youth glanced at him indifferently, said nothing, and slowly began to condense his physical body.

Only then did the others notice that he was in a sorry state, his physical body shattered, leaving only his primordial spirit.

However, the opponent's primordial spirit exuded a powerful aura of true god blood, which was stronger than that of everyone present.

"You just fought with Haotian?"

Another member of the Chaos Ancient Clan couldn't help but ask, somewhat surprised.

Su Wanyi also stared intently at the other person. She could sense that this young man seemed to be much stronger than her.

"Don't waste your energy, that kid is not someone you can handle."

The young man in black robes said calmly, his body already formed.

"Hmph, if you can't handle it yourself, don't drag us down with you."

Another member of the Chaos Ancient Clan snorted coldly, and then continued to chase after them.

Upon hearing this, the black-robed youth's eyes flashed with cold light. He suddenly raised his hand, and a terrifying aura of the Chaotic Limitless Law erupted from his palm, transforming into a whip of destiny that he lashed out.

Bang!
The whip lashed out instantly, striking the Chaos Ancient Clan member. He winced in pain, his skin torn and bleeding. He glared at him in shock and anger, pulling out his domain weapon at the same time: "Do you want to die?"

The black-robed youth sneered when he saw the domain weapon in his hand, but said nothing and continued to whip him.

The Chaos Ancient Clan member flew into a rage and unsealed the domain artifact. In an instant, terrifying domain power enveloped the area and swept towards the black-robed youth.

The black-robed youth remained unmoved, wielding the Whip of Destiny, which pierced through the boundary. Protected by the boundary's power, he lashed out and cracked open the head of the Chaos Ancient Clan member.

"what?!"

Upon seeing this, everyone else's pupils contracted, and they stared at him in horror.

The black-robed youth was able to injure the Chaos Ancient Clan protected by the domain artifact without even using it.
"This...this is the Law of Chaos and Limitlessness!"

"No, more than that!"

Those present were all top talents, and they quickly saw through the black-robed youth's methods, all of whom were deeply shocked.

The opponent possesses numerous ultimate realm powers and has also comprehended the origin of the Great Dao to an extremely profound level, exceeding the limit of the Immortal Monarch realm. He is even able to influence the power of the realm!

"Who do you think you are to talk to me like that?"

The black-robed youth looked down at the Chaos Ancient Clan with a cold gaze and a hint of condescension.

Under his Whip of Destiny, the opponent's skin and flesh were torn apart, and the true divine blood within his body was drained away, causing it to decay and break down, resulting in continuous damage.

"You, who are you?"

The Chaos Ancient Clan was extremely shocked. They realized that the black-robed youth's mastery of the Great Dao Origin Realm was beyond what a Celestial Monarch could achieve. He was most likely the reincarnation of some old monster!

Luo Ningshuang and Su Wanyi stared blankly at the scene. Suddenly, they realized that such a terrifying guy had just had his physical body shattered. How strong must Li Hao, who defeated him, be?
……

After passing the young man in black robes, Li Hao began his ascent straight towards the summit of the Heavenly Road.

The mysterious whispers grew clearer, and the surrounding ground was no longer marked with intricate patterns of laws, but instead turned into a mist.

Within this mist, a sonic wave ripples, capable of cleansing the soul while simultaneously bewildering the mind and drawing one into a series of illusions.

Before Li Hao's eyes appeared the mountain gate of the Great Dream Nine Abyss Sect, and a majestic palace stood in front of him, the imperial palace of the Great Yu Dynasty.

Suddenly, a beautiful figure stood by the roadside ahead, her back to him. Even though she was just turning her head, Li Hao recognized her at a glance – it was Shi Miao.

But she couldn't possibly be here. Li Hao composed himself, letting these illusions appear, and continued straight ahead.

Moreover, even though he had convinced himself that these were all illusions, the images did not disappear. "Don't go any further."

Looking back, that road was destined to be lonely.

Familiar figures appeared on the Heavenly Road: Elder Feng, Emperor Yu, and even Ren Qianqian, who was holding the sword for Li Hao, all stood silently by the Heavenly Road, gently advising Li Hao with their eyes full of concern, just as familiar as Li Hao remembered.

Although Li Hao knew these were all fake, the illusion did not disappear; instead, he continued to whisper words of persuasion.

"Don't joke about them!"

A flash of anger suddenly appeared in Li Hao's eyes; he would not allow them to be fabricated by this illusion.

"Break it for me!"

He suddenly accelerated and sprinted forward, letting out a thunderous roar that reverberated throughout the entire Heavenly Road.

The illusions gradually faded until they disappeared, and Li Hao's belief became even purer. The clouds and mist in front of him suddenly dissipated, revealing the majestic peak.

Is this the end of the Heavenly Road?

Li Hao leaped up and landed at the top of the steps. In an instant, he felt the oppressive feeling around him disappear and felt an indescribable sense of ease.

As Li Hao looked around, his consciousness suddenly plummeted, being pulled into a vast world.

This feeling is like reaching the pinnacle of immortality, where the body merges with heaven and earth.

Numerous laws appeared in Li Hao's perception. In addition to the laws, there were also many Daoist rhythms, including the Heavenly Road beneath his feet and the many figures constantly climbing on the Heavenly Road, all of which clearly appeared in Li Hao's perception.

He seemed to blend into the heavens and earth surrounding the road to heaven.

"Ok?"

Li Hao suddenly looked up and sensed a vast and majestic aura hovering quietly in the sky above him, at the summit of the Heavenly Road, like a god looking down upon all living beings.

Li Hao felt a shiver run down his spine from that supreme and ethereal aura, and his whole body felt an involuntary urge to prostrate itself.

"The way of heaven?"

Li Hao felt something wriggling inside his body, as if it wanted to get closer to that aura.

As Li Hao was filled with surprise and doubt, a vast will suddenly descended and enveloped him, making him as still as a wooden sculpture, unable to move.

That will was vast, boundless, and majestic, devoid of any emotion, cold yet clear, slowly touching Li Hao's soul, like a cool tentacle touching his forehead.

In an instant, countless thoughts, as if from the beginning of chaos, exploded in Li Hao's sea of ​​consciousness.

Countless dazzling lights appeared before his eyes, rapidly weaving together to form an ancient world of bizarre and wondrous lands.

Li Hao witnessed the initial separation of chaos and the emergence of heaven and earth. He saw numerous ancient chaotic races roaming freely in the ancient primordial true realm. He saw calamities everywhere, such as heavenly fires and thunderstorms, mountain floods and earth-shattering events. He also saw countless ancient chaotic races slaughtering each other, their wailing screams overlapping with the cries of newborns.

Among those fallen figures, there were also wisps of gray souls, which were extracted by some force and reincarnated into the cycle of reincarnation.

Endless, endless cycles, birth and destruction…

Until one day, bloodlines were born among many ancient chaotic races, but these bloodlines, born from their mothers, were merely empty shells of flesh, devoid of any life force.

On that day, no new life was born in the world.

Thus, many ancient chaotic races united to discuss this strange event, search for its cause, and ultimately dispatched their respective emperors to a dark and unknown place…

As light and shadow shifted, before anyone knew it, a vast universe appeared in addition to the original true world, where many life forms multiplied, settled, and migrated to that new world.

But as the various races multiplied, the new world quickly fell into conflict again, with killing and strife, reincarnation and rebirth, repeating in an endless cycle, seemingly a destiny, or an inescapable curse.

The vast land was littered with blood, flesh, and corpses.

Upon seeing this scene, Li Hao seemed to be affected, and a deep sense of sorrow involuntarily arose in his heart, a sorrow so profound that it even carried a feeling of despair.

Just as this feeling of despair was about to engulf him, Li Hao was jolted and suddenly broke free from it. The scene before him disappeared, and he saw a ball of silvery light.

With a gentle touch of his mind, he sensed a pure and majestic thought, or rather, a will, within that light.

To guide and enlighten all living beings?
From this will, Li Hao sensed an unquestionable belief, which seemed to carry some difficult yet great responsibility.

At the same time, he felt that as long as he accepted and inherited this will, he would gain extremely strong power. This power did not come from the laws of heaven and earth, but came directly from the supreme Heavenly Dao!
If you receive orders from Heaven, you will live a long and prosperous life!
These eight words came to Li Hao's mind.

Once he inherits this will and the mission etched within it, he will become the "Son of Heaven"!
Its power will rival that of the Great Emperor, and it will endure as long as the sun and moon, and live as long as heaven and earth!

However, the mission that must be borne by this will is more difficult than imagined: to save all living beings and to become the sharpest blade in the world, to be used by the Way of Heaven!
"Is this... Tianxin?"

Li Hao was somewhat dazed. This Heavenly Heart was extremely solemn and sacred, but... for some reason, he suddenly didn't want to touch it.

"Heaven saves all living beings... it should be that all living beings save heaven."

"It is not that all living beings need the heaven, but that the heaven needs all living beings!"

Sensing Li Hao's Dao heart retreating, thunder suddenly roared in the void, surging and turbulent, like a vast sea of ​​thunder sweeping over to suppress Li Hao, or like a supreme being emitting displeased anger.

Li Hao's hair flew wildly, and his robes fluttered in the wind. At this moment, all the strange phenomena before his eyes disappeared, and he stood alone at the peak of the Heavenly Road. Not far in front of him in the sky was that unseen and intangible majestic will.

"To prove the Way of Heaven, one must use one's own heart to prove the Way of Heaven. One's own heart is the Way of Heaven, not the other way around!"

"All living beings in this world have their own destiny, and even the salvation of all beings cannot be forced..."

Li Hao murmured to himself that he was willing to fulfill that mission and responsibility, but he was unwilling to force himself to bear it, as that would go against his principles.

If you are shackled, how can you talk about eternity?

Ascend the Heavenly Road, witness the will of Heaven, my way is both reason and the voice of Heaven!
By breaking all laws and defying cause and effect, I finally know who I am today!
"If Heaven is in my favor, I will testify to Heaven's will; if Heaven is not in my favor, I will follow my heart!"

Li Hao whispered.

As soon as these words were spoken, a tremendous thunderclap suddenly resounded throughout the world, as if the heavens were enraged.

Then, Li Hao felt a vast will surge forth, carrying immense pressure, descending from the sky above and pressing down on him. In just an instant, it pinned his body firmly to the summit of the Heavenly Road, leaving him sprawled on the ground, unable to move.

Li Hao felt as if all the bones in his body were cracking, and the true god blood in his body was suppressed by that power so that not even a drop could escape.
