The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 679 Tower of All Heavens

With the appearance of Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor, many figures immediately turned their gazes, feeling the vast and supreme aura, and were all shocked and discussed among themselves.

"Is that... is that the Celestial Emperor?"

"My goodness! I heard that there are two Immortal Emperors overseeing and guiding this True King selection, but I didn't expect to meet an Immortal Emperor as soon as I arrived!"

"As expected of a gathering place for the most outstanding talents and combat power in the True Realm, I have never seen an Immortal Emperor before, but I saw one here all at once."

Many people whispered and marveled, their eyes filled with excitement and exhilaration.

"Is that Immortal Emperor's disciple? I heard that even if you are personally taught by the Immortal Emperor, it won't be useful in this True King selection. You have to fight your way up step by step based on your strength."

"That's right, no qualifications matter, only combat power matters!"

"This is a good thing; this is what fairness looks like."

“Those top Immortal Kings who have cultivated for seventy or eighty thousand years are the strongest in this competition.”

While many people were discussing, Li Hao and Shi Miao were also looking around. They were all quite surprised to see such a dense crowd of people.

You should know that their Daoyuan lineage only selected more than twenty people, while there were at least several thousand present!
“There are so many people!”

What is that mountain?

"That's not a mountain, that's a tower!"

Li Hao and the others were all drawn to the towering black shadow in the abyss ahead. At this moment, the numerous figures floating around them gathered around this colossal tower that seemed to reach the heavens, like mayflies.

"This is a forbidden immortal artifact, the Tower of All Heavens!"

Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor slowly said, "This is the imperial weapon of the Star Emperor. You may not have heard of the Star Emperor, but you must know about the Second Final Realm, the Star Vein of All Heavens. That's right, it was created by the Star Emperor!"

Li Hao was taken aback. He was very familiar with the Star Veins of the Heavens. This final realm was actually created by the Star Emperor.
At this moment, he actually saw the imperial weapon that the other party was wielding!

It felt like a legend had descended upon us, both awe-inspiring and exciting.

"The Star Emperor is one of the two Emperors who are overseeing this event. This Tower of All Heavens will be your training ground for the next period!"

Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor slowly raised his head, his gaze seemingly fixed on the summit of this towering, heaven-reaching pagoda. He said, "The Tower of All Heavens contains the secret techniques of the myriad paths of the True Realm and gathers the tactics of all races in the heavens. It has three hundred levels in total! The first hundred levels are for suppressing Immortal Kings, and the middle hundred levels are for suppressing Quasi-Emperors!"

"The last hundred floors are specifically for use when confronting the Great Emperor."

"This tower used to be a place to imprison some heinous criminals at the Immortal King level. Now, those criminals have long been sent to various ancient demon battlefields to atone for their crimes, so this tower is naturally empty."

Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor turned his gaze to Li Hao and Shi Miao, and said, "If you want to compete for the title of True King, you must break through to the 90th level, or even pass through the 100th level!"

"Only in this way can we possibly seize the throne of the true king!"

He said this mainly to Shi Miao.

After all, Shi Miao is currently at the fourth level of the Immortal King Realm, and compared to Li Hao, she has some hope of competing for the True King position.

Li Hao has only just stepped into the Immortal King realm. Although he is exceptionally talented, the time left for him is too short.

"After ten thousand years, the tower's light has dimmed, and I didn't recognize it at first."

Shi Miao looked up at the tower in front of her, her eyes filled with nostalgia.

Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor shook his head slightly, "It's not that it's dim, but rather that it's stained with too much demonic blood and hasn't been cleaned."

Shi Miao was slightly taken aback, then focused his gaze, his eyes immediately becoming even more solemn and serious.

Ten thousand years ago, the Star Emperor also intervened in that catastrophic war. She vaguely remembered that the Star Tower smashed the ancient demon tide to pieces on that battlefield, killing countless ancient demons.

The once dazzling tower, resembling stars and glazed tiles, is now completely black, its surface stained with blood from 100,000 years ago, the color of which has not faded.

"So, every ten levels correspond to one level of the Immortal King Realm?"

Li Hao said.

Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor nodded slightly, "But it corresponds to the realm below the limit. In other words, even if an ancient demon, who is generally stronger than the myriad races of the True Realm, comes here, he will find it extremely difficult to survive in the corresponding level! And ordinary human geniuses will find it very difficult to even enter the corresponding level."

"This imperial artifact is extremely rigorous."

Upon hearing this, the other three Immortal Lords at the peak of their cultivation were secretly astonished.

The other disciples at the ninth level of the Immortal King Realm and the two disciples at the peak of the Immortal King Realm also had solemn expressions.

"Once the trial begins, you might as well give it a try. If you can directly enter the ninetieth floor, that would be extremely difficult for you."

Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor spoke to them.

Hearing him say this, the disciples' faces became even more tense. They were all top Immortal Kings who cultivated in the Extreme Dao Mountain, the best in their realm, yet they were having such a hard time in front of the Tower of All Heavens.
As they were talking, waves suddenly surged through the void.

Li Hao and Shi Miao looked back and saw a large group of figures rushing towards them on the road they had come from.

The leading figure was towering, with a disdainful gaze and an ambiguous appearance. His looks were both stunning and cold; he was none other than the Chaos Immortal Emperor.

Upon seeing Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor, Chaos Immortal Emperor nodded slightly to him, then his gaze swept over Li Hao and Shi Miao, his eyes slightly raised, a half-smile on his face as he said:
"Daoyuan, you actually brought two of other people's personal disciples with you to this top-tier trial opportunity. Aren't you a little heartbroken?"

Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor said calmly, "Haotian is also my disciple."

The Chaos Immortal Emperor chuckled and said, "The seedling is indeed quite good, but only you don't care."

Both Li Hao and Shi Miao frowned slightly, feeling somewhat displeased. At this moment, Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor's voice directly entered Li Hao's mind:
"Don't worry about him, he's just jealous that I received you."

Li Hao was taken aback, turned to look at his master, and felt a bittersweet feeling well up inside him.

He knew all too well how arrogant the Immortal Emperor was; how could he possibly accept someone else's personal disciple? The Chaos Immortal Emperor was not wrong.

However, his master didn't care at all and instead came over to comfort him.

"You have quite a few disciples, but it seems that only two of them have a chance to compete for the title of True King."

Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor glanced at the many figures behind him and smiled faintly.

There were hundreds of figures behind the Chaos Immortal Emperor. Among them, Li Hao saw many familiar faces, such as Luo Ning Shuang and Su Wan Yi, but no other members of the Su family. It seemed that they were all cultivating on the Chaos Star, just like Senior Sister Di Ling Shu.

Among them, two figures stood out. Their eyes were restrained yet gleamed with brilliance. They stood tall and straight, their bodies seemingly becoming the center of the world, exuding an extremely terrifying aura.

Immortal King Realm Perfection!
Li Hao stared intently, and the other two disciples at the peak of the Immortal King realm beside him also changed their expressions slightly, feeling a sense of pressure.

"Huh? He really came, and he's still alive."

When Su Wanyi and Luo Ningshuang saw Li Hao, a strange look flashed in their eyes. They had gone to the Eastern Region and were in the defense line of Jianlong City when they were suddenly attacked by ancient demons. The defense line collapsed, and the two of them were given special protection because of their special identities and escaped back to Zulong City.

He was then guided by a disciple sent by his master and safely returned to the Chaos Sea.

This is the benefit of being personally taught by the Emperor. If it were other disciples, in such a chaotic battle, those with slightly weaker backgrounds, or even those with extremely strong backgrounds but slightly bad luck, would have perished and died tragically long ago.

"Having two is already quite good. Out of ten kings, I have two kings. I am very content."

The Chaos Immortal Emperor laughed.

His two subordinates, both at the peak of the Immortal King realm, glanced indifferently at Li Hao and the others, their gazes lingering briefly on Li Hao before moving on elsewhere.

They had heard of Li Hao's reputation in the Primordial True Realm, but unfortunately, this Ancient Demon War only considered combat strength; all past honors were meaningless. After all, no matter how monstrous or promising a talent was, could they be used as bargaining chips with the Ancient Demons? No. With the arrival of the Chaos Immortal Emperor, exclamations of surprise rang out again. The successive arrival of two Immortal Emperors excited and thrilled many.

"You all stay here. When the Star Emperor and another Immortal Emperor arrive, they will tell you the detailed rules."

Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor spoke to Li Hao and the others.

Li Hao and the others nodded, and only after Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor's figure disappeared like a shadow of sand did they bow respectfully to see their master off.

Seeing this, the Chaos Immortal Emperor did not linger. After instructing his disciples, he also left.

With the departure of the two Immortal Emperors, everyone else relaxed, and many people frequently glanced at the disciples of the Chaos Immortal Emperor, discussing the differences between the Chaos and Dao Source lineages.

"Is that the Chaos Immortal Emperor over there? Why does he have so many disciples?"

"I heard that the Chaos Immortal Emperor is even more powerful in the Primordial True Realm, so he has more disciples."

"I heard that Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor is stricter in accepting disciples, which is why he has fewer disciples?"

"So, does that mean Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor's disciple is even stronger?"

"It's hard to say, we'll know when we get to this challenge."

While these people were discussing, the two disciples of the Chaos lineage who were at the peak of the Immortal King realm glanced at Li Hao and the others, and then led their disciples to fly away to another place.

Li Hao looked in that direction and saw a group of aloof figures standing at the end of the road, all dressed in silver robes and exuding an otherworldly air.

"Imperial clan?"

Li Hao didn't expect that the Imperial Clan would also come; judging from their numbers, there were several hundred figures there.

"You've been to the Eastern Regions too, haven't you?"

As Li Hao was observing, he heard figures approaching from the side. Su Wanyi and Luo Ningshuang had broken away from the other disciples and arrived together.

They were the personal disciples of the Chaos Immortal Emperor, and their status was equal to that of the two disciples who had reached the peak of the Immortal King realm, so they were not restricted.

"You guys have been there too?"

Li Hao was surprised.

"Yes, we are at Jianlong Pass."

Luo Ningshuang nodded. She had heard that Li Hao was in the rear, in a relatively safe place, and she was quite disappointed by this.

After all, if one dares to go to the Eastern Region for trials but doesn't dare to go to the front lines, it would be a bit cowardly.

"Jianlong Pass... Have you seen my fifth senior brother?"

Li Hao couldn't help but ask.

Su Wanyi shook her head, "There are countless geniuses and numerous Immortal Kings there. In our designated area, we didn't have many opportunities to interact with him, but I saw him when we were on the run..."

Li Hao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but imagine the tragic scene in his mind, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"Forget about the Eastern Region. Since we're here, let's focus on our cultivation. Although we don't have the time to compete for the True King title, if we can climb to the 90th level and become comparable to the top combat power of the 10th level of the Immortal King realm, we can at least compete for the position of the True King's deputy. This is the future position of the deputy commander of the Immortal King in the True Realm. Putting aside the Emperor realm, it is second only to one person and above tens of thousands of people!"

Luo Ningshuang said, her eyes filled with fighting spirit.

Li Hao didn't speak, but thinking of familiar faces like Elder Feng, his heart, which had been relaxed and carefree for many years, suddenly felt a strong urge to cultivate for the first time!

"The War Clan, the Ghost Clan, the Ancient God Clan..."

"All these powerful clans have arrived."

Su Wanyi glanced over and whispered.

Near the Tower of All Heavens, groups of figures seemed to have each carved out a region of the void. They possessed unique auras and arrogant eyes; they were all from the top ten powerful clans of the True Realm, numbering in the hundreds.

"This competition for the Ten Kings looks set to be quite fierce."

Luo Ningshuang narrowed her eyes. The ten strongest clans alone had ten spots, and they all had experts at the peak of the Immortal King realm. Moreover, there were quite a few of them.

"However, Senior Brother Bie Li and the others will definitely be able to do it."

Su Wanyi said that she had great confidence in those two senior brothers.

Luo Ningshuang nodded and said in a low voice, "The ones who should be worried are those powerful clans, how to compete for the remaining spots."

As they talked, more and more people came into the abyss.

Li Hao had no interest in the outside world and silently closed his eyes, entering a state of quiet contemplation.

His first-ever intense desire to cultivate made him lose all curiosity about the outside world, leaving him only with a desire to comprehend and understand.

The fastest way to increase combat power before the catastrophe arrives is to open up the Emperor's Path!

Therefore, he needs to refine more top-tier realm cores.

He needs to raise all seven skills to the thirteenth level of mental state!
At the same time, he also needs to comprehend the Emperor's Path that allows the seven top-tier World Hearts to overlap but not merge with each other!

He has very little time left, and he must cherish every minute and every second.

As Su Wanyi closed her eyes in deep thought, just as she was about to speak to Li Hao again, she was blocked by the barrier that Shi Miao had set up.

"You two, please return. A great calamity is imminent, so you should seize the time to cultivate."

Shi Miao said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ningshuang raised an eyebrow slightly, but sensing Shi Miao's cultivation at the fourth level of the Immortal King Realm, she frowned and didn't say anything more. She then pulled Su Wanyi back to the disciples of the Chaos lineage.

time flies.

The powerful clans that came here had all met each other and were familiar with one another. Although they were now in a competitive relationship, some of the most outstanding talents among these clans had turned from rivals into friends. Now that they had come here, they met up and encouraged each other.

In a blink of an eye, a few days later.

As the void suddenly trembled, Li Hao was startled from his reverie.

He looked up and saw that there were a third more people there than before.

On the towering Tower of All Heavens ahead, two figures slowly descended, exuding the aura of emperors.

This was true imperial power; its mere pressure caused countless people to involuntarily shut their mouths and almost hold their breath.

"So strong!"

Many prodigies, who rarely had the opportunity to meet the Celestial Emperor, felt an urge to kneel and worship him.

These two emperors, one wearing a long dress, the hem of which seemed to reflect countless stars and grains of sand, creating an atmosphere of flowing time, their eyes aloof and cold, carrying a frosty indifference that looked down on all things.

The other one had snow-white hair, a thin face, and looked like an old man, but his skin had no wrinkles at all.
