Follow the path of Dao from infancy Chapter 1703 Chapter 429: Instant Kill (Part 3)

Prior to beginning his session, Li Hao first took the precaution of masking his position on the Chaos Heavenly Dao Board.

He knew that if his adversaries detected his progress too early and leaked the information, it would only invite further complications.

"Three Laws..."

Shi Miao gave a slight nod, feeling a sense of relief. Even if the challenger from the Martial Clan possessed a hidden trump card, they could likely only manifest a single Chaos Law at most.

There was little point in concealing too much strength for long, unless the opponent had anticipated this exact moment and spent decades preparing specifically for Li Hao's demise. However, such a scenario was improbable, given that Li Hao's soul life spanned so few years. Even if the foe had begun plotting from the moment of Li Hao's birth, it would only amount to a mere century of preparation.

Shortly after, Li Hao’s consciousness sank into his cultivation.

His primary goal in returning to Extreme Dao Mountain was to expand the Law cracks of his 69 stars, forging them all into true Chaos Laws.

One by one, the 69 Chaos Laws flickered through his vision, their corresponding law cracks manifesting before him.

Li Hao maintained a state of absolute mental clarity. These intricate and esoteric law cracks did not overwhelm or confuse him.

"I see how it works..."

As he fully expanded them within his Sea of Consciousness, Li Hao quickly discerned that these 69 Chaos Law cracks functioned like pieces of a massive scroll.

His objective was to assemble them, reconstructing their original, primordial form.

"Chaos Sword Star, Space Star, Golden Dao Star..."

With a motion of his hand, Li Hao began the process, causing the law cracks of the three Chaos Stars to converge instantly.

A total of 414 law cracks wove together at high speed. At their center, the Great Dao Origin coiled until it solidified into a single Chaos Law: the Space Rending Chaos Law!

"So this is a Chaos Law..."

Li Hao lifted his palm, where the Chaos Law—born from the fusion of 414 cracks—now resided. From just a faint trace of its aura, the void within his hand was shredded. This Law did not resemble chains; instead, it was like a microscopic shard of Sword Qi. Wherever it drifted, nothing could withstand it; everything was torn apart.

"In the past, focused thousands of Law Powers into my Sword Dao only boosted its raw strength, but it was far weaker than this..."

"Whether in terms of the speed of the strike or the consumption of immortal power..."

Li Hao’s eyes flashed with intensity. This was the essence of the Chaos Law. Compared to his previous Law Control, which felt like bundling a hundred chopsticks into a blunt club, this was like wielding a razor-sharp scythe!

It was a fundamental transformation in quality!

Both Shi Miao and the Mystic Turtle Emperor Soul sensed the Space Rending Chaos Law in Li Hao’s hand. A smile touched Shi Miao’s lips; she had never doubted him. When Li Hao had declared in the hall that he could succeed, she knew he would make it a reality.

The Mystic Turtle Emperor Soul, however, was struck by a look of pure shock, followed by a series of stunned exclamations.

In the distant hall, the Dao Origin Immortal Emperor paused while moving a chess piece. Beneath a curtain of waterfall-like black hair, the Emperor’s lips curved into a subtle arc.

In the blink of an eye, the following day arrived.

The Chaos Arena sat within a Desolate Domain, a place unreachable by standard means. Perhaps only an Immortal Emperor could come and go at will, while others were forced to use the Chaos Heavenly Dao Board to gain entry.

When Li Hao quietly invoked the Chaos Heavenly Dao Board, the mystical artifact—infused with the Power of the Heavenly Dao—responded by manifesting a Teleportation Array for him.

Stepping through, Li Hao found himself facing a massive, majestic arena suspended within the Chaos Void.

The area surrounding the arena was a pure Chaos Domain, a place where only those with immense cultivation could survive.

However, a protective barrier enveloped the arena, shielding those inside from the chaotic interference of the void.

"Take care."

Despite her unwavering faith in him, Shi Miao spoke up, her eyes betraying a hint of anxiety.

Li Hao offered her a reassuring smile before allowing the teleportation force to pull him through the arena’s barrier, where he landed firmly on the stage.

Scanning the surroundings, he noticed numerous shadows appearing one after another in the void beyond the arena.

Many appeared human in form, yet possessed beast-like traits and radiated a dense, primitive chaos aura.

"Junior Brother, we have arrived."

The figures of Di Lingshu and Long Qingge materialized in the void outside the stage. The crushing force of the chaos domain battered them, but they held their ground.

Since Di Lingshu was only at the Immortal Monarch Realm, she lacked the power to endure the void for long on her own. Lei Jingfeng stood beside her, utilizing his power to shield her from the chaotic pressure.

Li Hao noted the absence of Gu Mofan, Di Wushe, and Zhan Qinghuang, but he didn't mind. He knew that as Quasi-Emperor level experts, they likely had other ways to observe the battle from afar.

"Is that kid on the stage the human known as Haotian?"

"Are you joking? Am I seeing things, or is he masking his true strength?"

"The Third Level of the Immortal Monarch Realm? You’ve got to be kidding. Is this really the human who supposedly understood 69 stars in a single day?!"

"Could there be some kind of mistake?"

Within the void, various members of the Chaos Ancient Clans watched and whispered.

Word of Li Hao's acceptance of a blood battle had spread from the Original Land yesterday, drawing many from the Chaos Ancient Clans to witness the event.

"If I had known he was just at the Third Level of the Immortal Monarch Realm, I would have stepped up to challenge him myself!"

"I was concerned he might be some kind of peerless monster."

Many of the Chaos Ancient Clan members grumbled, looking disappointed at the missed opportunity to gain easy fame.

While they spoke, a crack suddenly split the air in front of Li Hao, and a figure teleported into the arena.

"Hmm?"

Wu Ming immediately surveyed his surroundings with vigilance. When his eyes landed on the figure standing before him, he froze in surprise.

"You are Haotian?"

He stared at Li Hao in disbelief, unable to reconcile the aura he was sensing with the rumors.

Li Hao was also sizing up his opponent. Confirming this was indeed Wu Ming, he asked, "You are of the Human Race. Why do you seek a blood fight with me? Do we have some prior grievance?"

Wu Ming shook off his confusion. He confirmed that Li Hao’s aura matched what he had sensed through the Chaos Heavenly Dao Board. Though he felt slightly disoriented by how weak the boy seemed, he relaxed internally, feeling a surge of relief.

"A grievance? You’re overthinking it. I don't know you at all, but I have no choice—you've become far too famous!"

Wu Ming laughed softly. He hadn't expected the task to be this simple.

"Just because of fame?" Li Hao looked genuinely perplexed. He showed no killing intent; instead, he looked like a student seeking answers. "Even if it were envy, it shouldn't escalate to a blood fight. What is the real reason? Can you tell me?"

"Hmm?"

Seeing Li Hao’s humble demeanor, Wu Ming felt a flicker of doubt. Was this the arrogant brat his senior had described?

He didn't seem like it, but... it didn't matter.

"There is no reason for you to know. Just consider me a stepping stone using you for glory!"

Wu Ming didn't care for further conversation. He lunged forward, his aura as a Tenth Level Immortal Monarch exploding instantly. A suffocating pressure suddenly saturated the entire arena.

"So impatient..."

Li Hao frowned. He realized he wouldn't get any answers unless he delivered a thorough beating.

"Very well... let's begin."

He lifted his hand, and the Dao Origin Immortal Seal manifested instantly. His immortal power erupted as he used the Time Blade of Carving Arts to carve out the cultivation of the Sixth Level of the Immortal Monarch Realm!

By sacrificing a portion of his lifespan, he ascended three realms in an instant, causing his immortal power to multiply several times over.

Simultaneously, he unleashed three Chaos Laws at once.

Boom!

Wu Ming’s body was violently dismantled, erupting into a cloud of shattered fragments.
