Follow the path of Dao from infancy

Li Hao was stunned. Before he could say anything further, Elder Wang said, “I’ll look again.”

He immediately closed his eyes, and around his body, in the immortal path laws, appeared the glow of sun, moon, and stars, as if he stood in an independent starry sky.

As the stars and moon rotated, numerous rune-like forces swirled around, and after a while, Elder Wang opened his eyes, frowning tightly.

“I didn’t find it, but I seem to have found traces of a time fluctuation. It seems what you said is true, but the person might have gone to the True Realm now.”

“True Realm?”

Li Hao was taken aback, then said, “But the Mystical Gate has always been guarded.”

“There’s more than one breach in the All Heavens, and outside a Mystical Gate, there are traces of time fluctuations. Perhaps the person mastered part of Shi Miao Divine Lady’s power and traveled through there. According to what you said, the person you saw might be the reincarnated body of Shi Miao Divine Lady. In times of crisis, a very small portion of her power might have awakened to help her escape…”

Elder Wang said in a deep voice.

Li Hao’s eyes flickered, thinking of Ying Xiaoxiao’s demeanor, he said, “If she regains her identity as Shi Miao Divine Lady, will she still be my friend?”

“Hard to say, but the memories of the reincarnated body shouldn’t disappear unless she reincarnates again.”

Elder Wang said, “But now that reincarnation has collapsed, all reincarnations are fake and not real reincarnations.”

“Fake reincarnation?”

Li Hao was stunned.

Is there a distinction between true and fake reincarnation?

Elder Wang shook his head but did not elaborate; it involved certain terrifying secrets. Unless one is a direct disciple of the Immortal Emperor, it is not beneficial for Li Hao to know.

“If you’re going to the True Realm, then to search, you must go to the True Realm as soon as possible.”

Elder Wang’s eyes were grave and serious, “While the time fluctuations still have traces, I can barely capture them. The longer it takes, the harder it will be to find. According to you, the other party is only at a Holy Level, in a place like the True Realm, I’m afraid…”

“If she reincarnates again, even if she regains the memory as Shi Miao Divine Lady, she might not remember this life’s memories.”

“And if she reincarnates, we don’t know where she would reincarnate.”

Li Hao sensed his urgency, understanding Elder Wang’s concern.

He was slightly silent, initially thinking he could find Ying Xiaoxiao in the All Heavens and escort her to the Emperor Hall, but now he had to hurry to the True Realm.

He had just returned and wanted to continue gathering with Feng and the others.

Seemingly seeing Li Hao’s thoughts, Elder Wang said, “If you want to accompany your friends, you can ask their thoughts. If they’re willing, take them to the True Realm together, and you can look after them along the way.”

“That’s true.”

Li Hao’s heart stirred, and he immediately found Feng, Lin Qingyue, and others, gathering them all together.

“You plan to go to the True Realm?”

Feng Boping and others were slightly surprised to hear Li Hao’s words but not too shocked.

After all, with Li Hao’s talent, the All Heavens was too small for him.

Now that Li Hao had become a True Immortal, he naturally should venture into the broader world of the True Realm.

“If you’re going, I’ll go too.”

Before Li Hao could explain his urgency, Feng Boping directly said.

The Sword Master smiled gently, maintaining his elegance and spontaneity, “Earlier, I didn’t go to the True Realm because I wanted to look after your remains and planned to go in a few years. Since you’re fine, we should venture into the True Realm too, to avoid further grievances.”

His words made everyone remember the previous pressure from the three True Immortals, their eyes suddenly showing a bit of cold intent.

Having gone through the Ancient Demon catastrophe, Li Hao’s fall, and suppression by True Immortals, even if they initially considered giving up, now they all developed a strong will to fight, wanting to cultivate and control their destiny.

“Old man, I’m not going, I’ll stay here to guard the house.”

Mi Tian Saint waved his hand with a smile, “When you’re tired and come back, come find me for tea.”

Since the events of those years, his desire for cultivation had faded.

“I’m going.”

Lin Qingyue said to Li Hao, her gaze extremely determined.

Li Hao sensed the resolve in her eyes and said softly, “It’s too dangerous there.”

“As long as I can see you, I’m not afraid of any danger.”

Lin Qingyue looked up, staring directly at Li Hao.

Li Hao’s heart trembled slightly; he was silent for a moment, “When I find a friend there, I’ll come back.”

Lin Qingyue shook her head slightly; it seemed she had already made up her mind and would not change.

Others also voiced their desire to go to the True Realm.

Chi Guang, Lin Shuhai, and others, who had just reached the Half-Saint Realm, also wanted to see the True Realm, looking at Li Hao with expressions full of both reservation and hope.

Seeing their willingness to go, Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief, saying:

“Then let’s go together.”

With Li Hao’s decisive decision, the whole venue erupted in cheers.

…

The next day, Li Hao left with Elder Wang, heading towards the True Realm with everyone.

Apart from Feng and others, Ming Saint and Mu Saint did not immediately plan to go to the True Realm. After coming out, they quickly scouted the outside situation, knowing there would be many opportunities with their strength to go to the True Realm later on.

Previously not seizing the chance to bond with Li Hao in the Forbidden Ground, they feared little progress could be made along the journey, plus they had been away from the All Heavens too long and wished to spend more time at home.

Flower Saint, Travel Saint, and others, as Li Hao’s Immortal Guards, needed to stay by his side unless Li Hao ordered them to remain and guard.

As they set out, Half-Saints and Tao Comprehension Realm experts from various Holy Lands came like tides to bid farewell.

All Saints left, and now within each Holy Land, the Half-Saints were the top powerhouses, able to defend the Holy Land.

At the Starry Ancient Palace, Li Hao traveled with Elder Wang to this place.

Here, eight Half-Saints guarded the area, receiving Immortal Divine beings from the True Realm. They also received news that Li Hao and his entourage were heading to the True Realm.

“Saint Haotian!”

“Greetings to Saint Haotian!”

The eight Half-Saints rose and bowed respectfully upon seeing Li Hao, with some directly offering a grand salute as Half-Saints.

During the earlier Ancient Demon catastrophe, Li Hao had turned the tide and saved the All Heavens. This event spread over five years, broadcasted across the All Heavens, with countless people witnessing the heroic and tragic scene of the young man perishing with the True Immortal Realm Ancient Demon in the Forbidden Zone.

In every Holy Land of the All Heavens, statues of Li Hao had been erected for disciples to worship.

Li Hao bid farewell to them and then, together with Elder Wang, led the Sword Master, Feng, and the others towards the True Realm.

Upon reaching the True Realm again, the desolate sight unfolded before them, but differently from before, in the distance, True Immortal figures were flying swiftly using Sword Control.

Previously, under Li Hao’s guidance, Elder Wang had slain a group of troublesome True Immortals within the All Heavens, yet in the True Realm, there remained many forces, including scattered True Immortals, who heard about the Fake Realm and knew the Heavenly Palace had opened the area, all eager to explore this ancient battlefield forbidden zone and see the Immortal Emperor’s Fake Realm.

“Let them wait a bit while I set up an array.”

Elder Wang told Li Hao.

Li Hao nodded, then went with Elder Wang, Sword Master, and the others, resting and waiting on the side.

Meanwhile, Elder Wang raised his hand, conjuring silvery light like talismans, forming the foundation of an immortal array in the void.

“Is this the True Realm?”

Feng Boping and the others looked around curiously.

This was their first time here, feeling especially fresh and amazed.

The True Realm was more desolate and worn than they had imagined.

Li Hao explained the reason to them, and they learned that this place was an ancient battlefield.

At that moment, from the distance, True Immortals flew rapidly using Sword Control, traversing the Ancient Road Canyon, descending outside the Mystical Gate.

“Hmm? A group of Saints?”

Four True Immortals landed, the True Immortal power they had concealed slightly revealing, glancing at Li Hao, Feng Boping, and the others, noticing Li Hao was at the True Immortal Realm, but only at the True Immortal First Layer.

“Just at the True Immortal First Layer, coming to recruit people?”

The young True Immortal sensed Li Hao’s cultivation, raising an eyebrow slightly, his gaze swept over, and immediately fell on Lin Qingyue.

He sensed this woman had an extremely strong Sword Intent Dao Embryo within, that Dao Embryo extremely mysterious, as if existent and nonexistent, seeming like a supreme Dao Embryo he’d heard of.
