Chapter 764: Chapter 150: Fury, Hundredfold Suppression! (Vote for Monthly Ticket)_4

Upon these words being uttered, explosive cheers shot up to the skies in the cities of dozens of dynasties within the Canglan Realm.

Just with these remarks alone, Puhua Saint managed to gain the faith of many, prompting them to erect temples and offer incense fire in his honor after the fact.

Li Hao wanted to laugh, for he already had an inkling of the other party’s intentions.

“You know my swordsmanship has entered the Dao, and my Sword Dao is not the Demonic Path, so why would I need to cultivate Demon Skills? With my Sword Dao alone, I’m more than capable of roaming freely without restraint; there’s no need to borrow the ways of the Demonic Path for cultivation!”

Li Hao declared loudly.

“Such arrogant talk is a bit excessive, isn’t it? While your Sword Dao is strong enough to defeat us, it still pales in comparison to the top Heavenly Prides. To yearn for one of the top ten spots in the Supreme Genius Battle, or even first place, it’s normal to be tempted by desire and fall into the Demonic Path.”

...

Puhua Saint commented.

Hearing his words, many in the audience thought there was some truth to it. With Li Hao’s power in the Sword Dao, securing a spot in the top ten of the Canglan Realm wouldn’t be a problem, but attempting to claim one of the top ten positions amongst all the Heavens did seem a bit more daunting; hence, it seemed plausible that he might risk taking the shortcut of the Demonic Path.

Li Hao, however, couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing these remarks.

“If you’re accusing me of being a Demon Practitioner, then bring forth your evidence!” Li Hao couldn’t be bothered to argue further.

“You’ve miscalculated, I happen to possess the Divine Light Transmission, which can reveal the Demonic Qi!”

Puhua Saint sneered, as if having anticipated Li Hao’s response, and his body suddenly radiated brilliant golden light.

Li Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, while power surged within him, concentrating in his arms. The Divine Blood circulated rapidly, continually refining and purging the black Qi.

At the same time, he restrained his aura, as over a hundred layers of Dao Domain unfolded in succession, blocking the Buddha light.

“A hundred layers of Dao Domain!!”

Upon witnessing the Dao Domain displayed by Li Hao, the crowd below was shocked and stirred into an uproar!

This scene, reflected by the Boundary Stone, also left dozens of dynasties across the Canglan Realm in stunned silence.

A Taiping Tao Domain was already a mark of a top-tier powerhouse in a dynasty, yet Li Hao had managed to condense over a hundred layers of Dao Domain!

“What?!”

Chi Guang’s pupils contracted slightly, revealing a hint of astonishment; a hundred layers of Dao Domain required immense effort. While it didn’t seem as directly impactful as a Skill entering the Dao, the cumulative layering, once reaching a certain threshold, could also undergo a qualitative change, becoming an extremely powerful force.

He had not focused his efforts in this area because it would be too time-consuming and the gains seemed minor.

If one’s Skill reached a bottleneck, that would be the time to pivot and refine one’s Dao Domain further, amassing more combat power.

Lin Shuhai also revealed a trace of solemnity in his eyes. Swordsmanship entering the Dao, coupled with a hundred layers of Dao Domain, meant that this strength was at the level of the top Heavenly Prides.

The numerous Saint Heirs and saintesses from the Sword Ancestor Holy Land, including Lin Qingyue, were all shocked; this was the first time they had seen Li Hao’s true power.

Previously, Li Hao defeated Haoyue with a single sword strike, clearly holding back some strength. Was this Li Hao’s reserved power?!

In the crowd, Jiang Yingyue, who was merely observing the battle below, revealed an excited gleam in her eyes.

A hundred layers of Dao Domain!

Compared to what she had heard from the Sword Master previously in the Sword Tower, about 97 layers, Li Hao had condensed three more layers in just a short period!

This was his true combat strength!

I knew it, I knew it!!

Jiang Yingyue trembled with excitement; this great secret she had confided only to the Yao Ancestor, and had told no one else, had been festering inside her, almost causing her internal agony. Seeing Li Hao defeat Chi Guang in the Divine Dynasty Solo Battle without even using his Dao Domain, she knew that Li Hao still hadn’t used his full strength!

Were outsiders really claiming that Chi Guang hadn’t used his full strength either? As if Qingfeng had used all his power?!

“A hundred layers of Dao Domain, just the Dao Domain itself can halt the progression of Law Mystic Powers!”

Jiang Yingyue’s eyes sparkled with light.

Meanwhile, on the platform above, the Buddha light could not penetrate beyond Li Hao’s Dao Domain, unable to advance even an inch.

A hundred layers of Dao Domain was sufficient to block his Divine Skills, preventing them from infiltrating.

“Afraid to show your true face?!”

Puhua Saint couldn’t help but cry out in shock and anger.

Li Hao sneered: “It’s your Divine Skills that are trash, incapable of reflecting their power. You slander me because you can’t beat me. Which part of the strength I’ve demonstrated has even a shadow of the Demonic Path?!”

The Sword Qi pervaded within his Dao Domain, clearly indicating a Sword Domain, unrelated to the Demonic Path.

Hearing Li Hao’s words, many people below the stage also showed surprise and doubt in their eyes. Indeed, they couldn’t see a hint of the Demonic Path, and moreover, if Li Hao could condense a Hundred-Layered Dao Domain and had his Swordsmanship Entering Dao, was there any need for him to cultivate the Demonic Path?

“Demon fiend, you still dare to quibble!”

Puhua Saint yelled furiously, his face flushed red, but his law-infused Divine Skills were utterly incapable of penetrating Li Hao’s Dao Domain.

Within Li Hao’s arms, Divine Blood pulsated, accelerating the refining of those murderous resentments, and soon, his aura gradually faded.

He raised his hand, drawing a streak of Sword Qi from the void, and suddenly slashed towards Puhua Saint.

“Is this sword, or is it not a Demon Sword!”

The Sword Qi was like a cleansing breeze, illuminating heaven and earth, pure and bright green, exuding vast Sword Power.

Puhua Saint’s pupils constricted, his back reflecting the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation, and he roared: “If the demon is not converted, I vow not to achieve buddhahood!!”

“Such obsession, you are already in the Demonic Path!”

Li Hao’s eyes looked down disdainfully, speaking indifferently.

His sword light suddenly fell, splitting the opponent’s Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation, Hundred-Layered Dao Domain suppressing, effortlessly overthrowing and destroying the opponent’s laws.

Li Hao stepped forward, used Returning Ruin Instantaneous Movement to appear in front of his opponent, directly kicked the opponent out from the Dharma Aspect, stepping on him underfoot, the battle platform cracking.

“You say I am a demon, so what if I am a demon, is there a rule prohibiting Demon Practitioners from battling?”

Puhua Saint lay under Li Hao’s foot, defeated beneath the battle platform, coughing out golden blood in his Divine Power State, gritting his teeth:

“Though there is no such rule, I do not permit it!”

“Who are you supposed to be?”

Li Hao laughed, “Not only can I participate in the battle, but I will also take the first place!”

Puhua Saint’s pupils contracted, hearing the meaning in Li Hao’s words. If he took first place, the Buddha Venerate would personally bestow upon Li Hao the Incense Fire of a hundred cities. For the Buddhist sect to award a Demon Practitioner the Incense Fire of a hundred cities was undoubtedly a disgrace, a slap in the face of the Buddhist community!

“You, you’re delusional!”

Puhua Saint clenched his teeth, gold light flickering in his eyes, as if brewing an attack.

However, two streaks of sword light suddenly shot out from Li Hao’s eyes, meeting his gaze, full of Sword Intent, piercing through his eyeballs.

Puhua Saint screamed in agony, his eyes bleeding, raising his hands to cover his eye sockets.

Li Hao lifted his foot, kicking him away to crash against the Magic Array Barrier, declaring his victory in this battle.

Seeing Li Hao’s domineering manner, everyone was shocked. Although Puhua Saint claimed Li Hao was a Demon Practitioner, he didn’t produce any evidence, it was merely an assertion. In contrast, the strength displayed by Li Hao was astounding, his Hundred-Layered Dao Domain subdued countless Heavenly Prides.

“I don’t care if you’re a Demon Practitioner or not, but wanting to take first place might be a bit difficult.”

Chi Guang said to Li Hao, although the Hundred-Layered Dao Domain surprised him, he was not afraid of his own strength. Even if his Dao Domain did not have a hundred layers, but had fifty, it was enough to barely withstand it. Combined with his true power, it was enough to breach Li Hao’s Dao Domain!

“How difficult?”

Li Hao looked at him, his mood not as good as before, no longer showing a friendly demeanor: “You think you’re up for it?”

Chi Guang was taken aback, the Li Hao he knew was gentle and easygoing, extremely casual, but now he was like an unsheathed precious sword, untouchable.

He suddenly realized, if the other’s Swordsmanship had Entered Dao, how could he not have the sharp edge of a Heavenly Pride?

He wasn’t angry, but instead laughed, “That’s more like it, interesting, I hope when I meet you later, you won’t regret saying this.”

“There’s no need for later; defeating you takes only one sword, anytime you wish for silence!”

Li Hao said coldly.
