Chapter 838: Chapter 170: The Battle Begins, He Has Arrived! _5
“Spring, Autumn, Winter, Summer, the seasons must rotate in order, how can they be disrupted at will.”
His eyes were cold and sharp as he picked up a piece again, heavily placing it on the board:
“If I ever encounter this person, I will certainly let him know that one in the Dao Law Realm must follow the rules of the Dao Law Realm!”
In another secret cave mansion in the Tianyuan Sacred Land.
Deep in the cave mansion, there is a stone wall with a young man sitting in front of it, awakening from his meditation.
“Go, the time is almost right, your opponent this time is not to be underestimated, you might personally experience the legendary Sixth Extreme Realm.”
The white-haired old man calmly said in front of the stone wall.
Sitting there in the dark cave, he seemed like a stark white beam of light, surrounded by starry galaxies, brilliant and misty, as if he wasn’t part of the mortal world.
The young man was briefly stunned and couldn’t help saying: “Is it that Haotian, but Wu Tian of the Fajia, and Qiu Tianlu, the direct disciple of the Holy Master of Law, should not be underestimated either.”
The white-haired elder slightly shook his head, not saying more.
Seeing this, the young man got up and respectfully bowed before retiring.
…
In the blink of an eye, the Supreme Genius Battle had finally begun.
With the Boundary Stones illuminating, spread across the entire Heavenly Origin Realm, the clouds above suddenly changed, reflecting the scene atop the Tianyuan Sacred Mountain.
Countless people had finished their breakfast early, eagerly looking forward to the most grand and bustling event across all heavens.
A once-in-a-century event, many people would struggle to witness it even once in their lives.
“It’s starting, look, that’s Wu Tian from the Fajia!”
“That’s Qiu Tianlu from the Fajia, I heard he’s the direct disciple of the Holy Master of Law, likely to inherit the mantle of the Supreme Saint!”
“That’s Xiao Tianyu from the Source Ancestor Sacred Land!”
“That’s the Green Deer King from the Mixed Heaven Sacred Land, I heard that he was previously subjugated under Haotian’s buttocks as a mount in the All Heavens Battlefield, not sure if it’s true or false.”
“Shh, it seems to be true, his expression changed, he heard it!”
In the crowd, some people who mentioned the dark history of the Green Deer King suddenly felt the piercing gaze of the Green Deer King, causing them to sweat profusely and dare not talk further.
On Tianyuan Mountain, the battlefield is at the peak of the mountain, and the geniuses from all realms are arranged from the mountainside courtyard, following the Saint Path steps to the waiting area.
As each Saint Heir ascended the steps, countless gazes converged there.
Among them, the Saint Heirs under the Supreme Saint Gate walked out to loud cheers, obviously recognized by many.
Merely having the title of a disciple of the Supreme Saint was enough to terrify.
“That is the Haoyue Saint Son from the Sword Ancestor Sacred Land.”
“It’s our Brother Lin from our sacred land!”
In the crowd, the Haoyue Saint Son and people like Lin Shuhai also ascended the Saint Path steps, but apart from some from the Canglan Realm recognizing them, other realms didn’t know much about them, causing little stir.
To become renowned across all heavens, one must have done extremely sensational deeds, but with only a few hundred years of cultivation, how could they have many chances to become widely known.
This Supreme Genius Battle was indeed their grand stage to become famous.
“That’s Chi Guang!”
“Who is Chi Guang?”
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know him, but soon you will remember him, he is very strong!”
In the crowd, dignitaries and Princely Heirs from various realms gathered to watch the battle, all from prominent and powerful families; even members of the Divine Dynasty’s royal family were common here, easily grabbed by the handful.
As figures climbed the steps one by one, many spectators watched intently. Eventually, fewer figures appeared.
“Where is Haotian? Why don’t I see him?”
“Could it be that he really backed out, not daring to participate in the competition?”
“Nonsense, I heard he came. Maybe he’s just moving slowly.”
“Now that the Buddhist has arrived, does he still dare to show up?”
Outside the Saint Path steps, onlookers gathered. If not for the extensive prohibitions here that prevented their Divine Thought from sweeping around, they would have long tried to probe with their Divine Thought down to the foot of the mountain.
As everyone eagerly awaited, a figure slowly ascended the steps.
He looked somewhat sleepy, rubbing his eyes as he walked.
Having stayed up late last night pondering the embryonic form of the Saint Path, Li Hao woke up late. Although he could go a month without sleep at his current level, sleeping was a pleasure. Why should he abandon such enjoyment for the sake of cultivation?
“It’s quite lively.”
As Li Hao reached the top of the stairs, he saw countless figures gathered outside, all staring intently at him now.
“Haotian!”
“He actually came!”
“He’s really unafraid of death, provoking both the Buddhist and the Void Holy Land and still daring to compete. Could it be that he really thinks he can take first place?”
“He must be aiming for first place. After all, the lure of the Incense Fire is great, the path to becoming a Saint, who can resist it.”
Many did not recognize Li Hao, but as some who knew him cried out in astonishment, it quickly became known that this youth who appeared to have just woken up was none other than Haotian, famous throughout All Heavens!
Amidst the sudden surge of astonished calls and a discussion that intensified tenfold, the Saint Heirs who had walked before also turned their attention towards him.
The name of Haotian had recently become as thunderous as ever to them, even more so than those personally transmitted by Supreme Saints.
“Is that him?”
“Is he Haotian?”
Many competing Saint Heirs and saintesses scrutinized the youth with a serious gleam in their eyes.
“Hmph, indeed I find his character unappealing.”
In the waiting area, Qiu Tianlu, clad in white, glanced over and saw the youth smiling at the spectators and then walked towards this side.
It was their first meeting, but he felt a profound aversion against the aura the other emitted.
Li Hao felt numerous gazes fixed on him, but he was accustomed to it. He looked up, his glance swept the waiting area, primarily checking if Lin Qingyue and other acquaintances had arrived or had overslept like him.
Seeing that they had all arrived, he felt relieved and soon looked towards the distant, hidden yet formidable figures of Saints.
This battle had amassed a surprising number of Saints on Tianyuan Mountain, almost dozens!
While most maintained a hidden and extremely inconspicuous presence, Li Hao, with his nascent understanding of the embryonic form of the Saint Path, still sensed them.
His expression was solemn; it seems this grand event indeed held significance to All Heavens. After all, the purpose of this Supreme Genius Battle seemed to be to stimulate the geniuses of All Heavens to compete and cultivate, and then to bring forth those monstrous beings from the Sixth Extreme Realm.
Now, he had arrived.
Upon reaching the waiting area, Li Hao felt a cold gaze falling on him.
Looking up, it was the Twin Buddha Child, staring coldly at him.
Li Hao met his gaze, and as the Twin Buddha Child saw Li Hao looking at him, a slight cold smile leaked from his lips. Previously unable to kill Li Hao and having learned that the real Li Hao had arrived here, he knew he had been tricked.

The sword strike he had witnessed was probably a result of Lie Sky Saint’s covert help. The Heart Demon which he initially thought he was dispersing, from then on, was evoked even more intensely, his hatred deepened, becoming even harder to control.
