The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 660 The Embryonic Path to the Emperor
"Ok?"

Outside the courtyard, Shi Miao was also stunned, her eyes filled with shock and surprise. Although she had always had great confidence in Li Hao and knew that he was extremely talented, she never expected that when he broke through to the King Realm, he would comprehend two World Hearts in one day!
Moreover, this second boundary heart gave her an extremely terrifying feeling, seemingly no less powerful than the previous reverse-time boundary heart.

That hazy, gray aura seemed capable of swallowing everything and reducing everything to nothingness.

In the courtyard, Li Hao felt that vast power gathering into his own domain. It had an extremely strong pulling force, as if a vortex was forming on the surface of a calm lake, attracting all the laws within the domain to condense a second domain core!
However, his domain suddenly seemed to go out of control, and the power of reversal surged forth, transforming into a second vortex that was intertwined with that power.

Li Hao immediately recalled what Shi Miao had said earlier: there is only one World Core. Even though many top geniuses have tried to condense a second, third, or even more World Cores, they still cannot maintain two separate World Cores.

The multiple realm cores that are condensed will eventually merge together. There is only one realm. Multiple realm cores can only create layers of realms, but cannot create a second realm.

At this moment, Li Hao felt that the reverse time realm heart and the formless realm heart were getting closer and closer as they rotated, and there were signs that they were merging.

If the Reverse Time and the Formless were to merge, Li Hao didn't know what kind of realm he would become. But as he felt the rotation of these two forces, he suddenly had an idea: if he let them rotate forever, like the Tai Chi symbol, would they remain incompatible, thus allowing him to possess two realms?

"Wuji gives birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to Liangyi..."

The Yin-Yang Dao Origin emerged in Li Hao's mind. This was one of the myriad Daos, but it was not one of the Nine Orders. However, it was a superior Dao that was the same as the Dao of Life, Destruction, and others, except for the Nine Orders.

Li Hao forged 24 Chaos Laws and naturally gained a profound understanding of Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang are in balance, like the balance between life and death. The Tai Chi symbol represents life within death and death within life, in a continuous cycle.

"By balancing Yin and Yang..."

A glint of inspiration flashed in Li Hao's eyes. At this moment, the two boundary centers were merely rotating on their own, stirring up and competing for the power of their respective domains, rather than circling each other. This would inevitably lead to a violent collision sooner or later until they merged. What he wanted to balance was to make them rotate with each other, like two spheres, generating centrifugal force between them.

But thinking about it was one thing, doing it was another. He enveloped the two realm centers with his divine sense, trying to push them and change their positions, but it was as if he had touched two giant mountains. He had to exert extremely strong force to barely move them.

"really……"

Li Hao's eyes darkened. The Yin-Yang Dao was not something he alone knew; other geniuses had also mastered it. He was not the only one who could think of using the balance of Yin and Yang and the Taiji Yin-Yang to balance the two realm hearts. However, even Shi Miao did not mention anyone else who had condensed two realms, which was enough to show that it was extremely difficult to prevent the realm hearts from merging.

Taking a deep breath, Li Hao activated all of his True God Blood and simultaneously unleashed the Ultimate Dao Technique, causing his foundation to increase sixfold. The three thousand drops of True God Blood suddenly erupted with the power of eighteen thousand drops of True God Blood, and each drop of True God Blood contained terrifying defensive power.

The power brought by the 18,000 drops of true god blood was like the roar of a god, moving mountains and filling seas, instantly propelling the two realm centers forward.

Previously as immovable as a giant mountain, they now resembled two iron balls. With the surge of power from 18,000 drops of true god blood, the two realm centers were simultaneously pushed into rotation, spinning around each other rapidly.

This rotation caused the power of the domain around Li Hao to boil, as if the void was being torn apart, and a terrifying pressure was released.

"The power of the realm has erupted..."

Li Hao was somewhat surprised. As the two boundary hearts rotated, he felt that the power of the boundary became extremely terrifying, several times stronger than before. He did not expect that this prevention of the boundary hearts from merging would inadvertently lead to the discovery of a terrifying technique for mobilizing the power of the boundary.

Moreover, if the two boundary centers can maintain this rotation, then this state of boundary boiling can be maintained at all times!

"Ok?"

Outside the courtyard, Shi Miao was shocked to sense the terrifying domain power suddenly emanating from Li Hao. This power, despite having just stepped into the Immortal King Realm, felt comparable to the second level of the Immortal King Realm!

It should be understood that each step forward in the Immortal King realm is extremely difficult, equivalent to five levels of difference in the Immortal Monarch realm.

In the other halls, Gu Mofan and the others also sensed that Li Hao's aura was rapidly rising in the courtyard, and their expressions became increasingly solemn.

This junior brother always manages to surprise them and exceed their expectations.

At this moment, as the two boundary centers continued to rotate, the tearing force became stronger and stronger. Li Hao gradually withdrew his strength and restrained the Yin-Yang balance law. After all, if he continued to use the law to maintain it, it would be a continuous drain on himself. Although he had the Heavenly Star Vein, it was by no means a long-term solution, and he would eventually become mentally exhausted.

As the laws converged, the two rapidly spinning boundary centers clearly showed a tendency to slow down. When this speed slowed down to a very low level, suddenly, the two boundary centers showed a tendency to move closer to each other, and their speed also dropped rapidly due to friction.

Li Hao's expression changed slightly, but he did not make another move. Instead, he quietly watched as the two boundary cores slowed down until they stopped, and then returned to their previous close proximity.

This undoubtedly means that his method failed.

Even if he used the ultimate method and exerted all his true divine blood to propel the two realm hearts, everything would return to normal when he lost his support.

"It seems that what Shi Miao said was true. There can only be one Boundary Heart. This is the order of heaven and earth, which cannot be broken."

Li Hao thought to himself.

He was about to give up, but suddenly, a light seemed to flash through his mind.

Is the order of the universe... always as it is, and will it always be so?

He thought of the Seven Elders, his master, and the other Immortal Emperors, and two words came to mind: the Emperor's Path!

There was no imperial system before, but now countless people have followed one after another, adding bricks and tiles, and gradually opened it up.

When there was no Dao Source Immortal Seal, my master created it.

There was no Ultimate Dao Method before...

Including other final realms, there are also Immortal Emperors who break through the limits and open up the final realm!

Now, a dilemma lies before Li Hao: no one can possess two World Hearts at the same time!

"Two Boundary Cores..."

"Since we can condense two, why can't they coexist at the same time!"

Li Hao, who had originally planned to give up, suddenly felt a strong urge. He had only intended to give it a try, thinking that he wouldn't be too upset even if he failed, but now he had an urge to break through this predicament no matter what.

However, although his fighting spirit was ignited, the two World Hearts in front of him were getting closer and closer, and time could not wait for Li Hao to think things through carefully.

Once these two realm hearts merge, they will inevitably surpass the reverse-time realm heart. If other realm hearts are condensed in the future, it will be even more difficult to maintain their opposition.

The current reverse-time realm mind and the formless realm mind are evenly matched and in balance.

"They can't be together, they can't be together... Separate... Separate forever..."

"A partition... there's no way to create a partition, and maintaining balance... that also failed just now..."

Li Hao's mind raced. The ever-approaching boundary centers felt like a death knell, fueling his growing anxiety. But his Dao heart quickly forced him to calm down, his gaze fixed on the two approaching boundary centers. Separation wouldn't work, balance wouldn't work… Water benefits all things without contention!
Suddenly, Li Hao's mind seemed to buzz, and all his past experiences surfaced in his mind.

He has been practicing Buddhism all this time, only seeking a peaceful and quiet life.

Because he does not contend, no one in the world can contend with him!

The more you try to stop it, the less likely you are to be stopped. After all, the fusion of these two realm hearts is the order of heaven and earth, an irresistible force!
If it cannot be violated, then it will not be violated!
"Both World Cores want to obtain the entire World. If that's the case, then let's hand over the World completely to them!"

Li Hao's mind suddenly became clear, and he controlled the power of the realm, all of which surged into the heart of the reversed time realm.

The power of the realm collapsed into the core of the realm, while the formless realm core on the other side fell into a brief stagnation and stopped rotating. After all, the power of the realm disappeared, and it could no longer be involved. However, in the instant of stagnation, it rushed towards the reverse-time realm core at an extremely fast speed.

But the next moment, the power of the realm that had collapsed into the heart of the Reverse Time Realm soared out like a dragon and surged into the heart of the Formless Realm.

The Formless Realm Heart quickly stopped, and the power of the realm flowed into the Formless Realm Heart, then meandered and shifted to the Reverse Time Realm Heart.

It repeats itself in a cycle, like an encircling "8", or like a Möbius strip, going back and forth.

In this cycle, it is equivalent to both boundary centers simultaneously receiving the power of the boundary, and in its entirety. As the boundary collapses into the reverse-time boundary center, it quickly transfers again, all gathering in the formless boundary center, and the two cycle back and forth.

Li Hao used his powerful control to finish the connection, allowing both realm cores to simultaneously obtain the entire realm. There was only a very slight time gap, which could be ignored.

As this cycle continued, the two boundary centers gradually settled down and stopped moving closer to each other. However, the power of the realms seemed to form a solidified path in the constant back-and-forth cycle. Drawn back and forth by the mutual attraction of the two boundary centers, it gradually transformed into two realms!

Little by little, Li Hao tried to let go of the control of his divine sense and found that this strange cycle was actually quite stable and decayed very slowly.

Li Hao observed carefully and found that at this rate of decay, it would probably stabilize after a few days with the support of his divine sense.

This is much better than constantly using the blood of the true god to forcefully propel the rotation; it will quickly recover after a slight pause.

"It's almost stable!"

"But it's not the most stable, it's not permanent. If it could be permanent, then perhaps... it would be the Emperor's Path!"

Li Hao's eyes flickered, and he felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

It is already very rare that as long as you provide a little spiritual support every few days, you can maintain stability!

"In the future, I will condense another thirteen realms of mind and embed them into swordsmanship and movement techniques. There will only be more realms of mind!"

"If we can find a way for multiple realms to coexist, then we will have truly opened up the path to becoming an emperor!"

"So this is what it feels like to glimpse the Emperor's Path..."

Li Hao was excited and somewhat thrilled. The path to becoming an emperor was extremely difficult to find, as everyone in the True Realm knew, let alone opening one up.

Finding even one path to becoming an emperor is extremely difficult, but Li Hao seems to have already figured out how to find it.

Many of the world's difficulties are actually imperial paths waiting to be opened up!

It didn't exist before, but it came into being once it was created.

Countless people in the world, when faced with difficulties and encountering that great wall between heaven and earth, will naturally think that this is the boundary of the world. Just like Li Hao before, he instinctively felt that since ancient times, it has been impossible to condense two boundary hearts, that this is the order of heaven and earth, and that this is how it should be. Apart from regret, he did not feel that there was any problem.

"Your Majesty, you should draw your sword and pave the way for the people!"

"Only in this way can one be revered as a great emperor by the world!"

Li Hao felt that if he could find a way to have multiple World Hearts coexist, it would surely become a world-renowned achievement for him, benefiting all races!

This is also why the alien races of the True Realm hold all the Great Emperors in the highest esteem, because the Imperial Path opened up by the Great Emperors is applicable to all races and will be passed down for generations!
"According to Master, there are differences among Great Emperors, and there are also differences in their paths to becoming Emperors. Some Great Emperors have established rare techniques, such as the Five Absolutes Great Emperor, who used the five origins to create the terrifying Five Absolutes Emperor Sword. He used only the five origins to unleash power that surpasses the Nine Orders and even the Chaos Law. He is also abnormal!"

"But this Emperor's Path is still different from opening up the Final Realm. After all, the power of the Final Realm has a real impact on countless people, while the Emperor's Sword Technique still needs to be passed down and practiced."

Li Hao thought to himself.

He felt that this coexistence of the realm and the heart could be regarded as his first path to becoming an emperor.

But now, he has only grasped the basics, and can barely maintain the two boundary cores. If he were to condense a third or fourth one in the future, using this cyclical method again would likely be difficult and disrupt the stability.

Thinking of this, Li Hao suddenly felt a headache coming on. No wonder his senior brothers had been stuck in the Quasi-Emperor Realm for tens of thousands of years without making any progress. You must know that they were all top geniuses.

"These two realms seem to be expanding..."

At this moment, Li Hao felt that the realm that had gradually split into two parts was slowly extending in all directions, absorbing the power of the surrounding world and growing stronger. Each part became the size of the previous part, and the two parts together doubled in size.

Just like a whole that was once torn apart, now each part is giving birth to its own whole.

"Reversing time, formlessness..."

Li Hao's eyes flashed. He wondered what the effect would be if the two realms were used simultaneously.

But this was not the right place to show it, so he calmed himself down and gradually returned to stillness.

The two kinds of boundary power also contracted and disappeared into Li Hao's body. At the same time he was condensing the boundary, his physical body also underwent a transformation. His original Heaven and Earth Immortal Body seemed to have entered a true state of perfection. His physical cells contained surging and terrifying life force, as well as tiny spaces.

It seemed as if it truly contained the universe within its body, and the immortal power it could contain was dozens of times greater than before.

The two Boundary Hearts reside in two different parts of the body. Although both are in the chest and abdomen, they are like one in the sky and the other on the ground, and they do not entangle with each other.

"I didn't expect you to condense two World Hearts so soon after breaking through the realm. It seems that you had already accumulated enough foundation over the past three hundred years."

Shi Miao walked over and whispered to Li Hao, her eyes full of joy.

Before Li Hao could answer, a figure suddenly appeared in the sky above the courtyard; it was none other than Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor.
